Hey everyone! So second chapter! How exciting. Well this is dialogue heavy so I hope its alright. I'm writing a bunch of characters I don't usually write for so I have no idea how I am doing with their characterization. Next chapter we will get to see FG going to the Isle. Love to know what you think!

Also, I've never done this before but I'm going to try to actually respond to people who leave comments with questions and what not.

power214063: For the first part of your question, you will just have to wait and see. However, should such a thing come to pass it won't be for quite a few chapters at least. Next, I haven't fully decided on any relationships, however I'm not intending for this to be a romance centric story. Not saying Mal/Ben won't happen, I'm just not sure yet.

chrono-contract: Trust me, I am too. I've got some wild ideas for this story.

Fairy Godmother met Ben on the steps of the castle at precisely nine o'clock. The young prince smiled warmly, his relief at her presence obvious, and she smiled back. They entered the castle, Ben leading the way to the parlor where he had asked his parents to be the night before. Adam and Belle were already there when they walked in.

"Oh! Good morning Fairy Godmother," Belle said setting down her book and standing to greet her.

"Good morning to you two as well. Ben requested I come." Fairy Godmother smiled, sitting in one of the plush chairs as Belle sat next to Adam who nodded in greeting over his newspaper. Ben stood near the center of the room, taking a moment to compose himself.

"Mom, Dad, I have decided on my first official proclamation." Ben started, glancing over at Fairy Godmother as she gave him a reassuring smile.

"I want to conduct an investigation of the children on the Isle, and should their conditions be found unsatisfactory, I will allow them to come here, and attend Auradon Prep." Both Adam and Belle looked startled at the declaration. Adam leaned forwards, his face becoming very serious.

"Son, you know our thoughts on this. It would be cruel to take a child away from their parents, and their parents are villains, I am sure your heart is in the right place but it is impossible." Adam sat back, as Ben frowned at the dismissal of his plan.

"Exactly their parents are villains living in a prison. I've heard the stories about them and I've read all the reports on the Isle. I believe there is a high possibility the children there are suffering. Is it not our job to keep our people from suffering? The children shouldn't live in a prison, they haven't done anything wrong."

"And who is going to give you this information? The Isle is a dangerous place, and no one there would talk to a guard. They are villains Ben and villains belong on the Isle, that is just how it is." Both men were aggravated, Adam almost standing and Ben's hands clenching at his sides. Fairy Godmother sighed. She had hoped Adam would see the potential necessity of the situation, but she also knew it had been a long shot. This was why Ben had come to her first though, and she wouldn't just let this go.

"If I may interject." Fairy Godmother said standing and putting her hand on Ben's shoulder to help calm him. Belle was staring at Adam, making the King huff and look away. "Ben came to me yesterday about this issue, and I too was hesitant at first. However, I believe he has a valid point and it would go against everything I believe in to potentially leave a child in a terrible situation. Because of that, I have agreed to be the one to go to the Isle."

"You're needed here," Adam protested and Fairy Godmother shook her head.

"No I'm not, our children are growing up and are more than capable of doing any of my tasks. I will split my week between Auradon and the Isle, spending four days there and three days here. Ben and I agreed this should work best for everyone involved."

"It's still too dangerous, you would be surrounded by villains who want nothing more than to see you especially dead. I cannot condone this."

"Need I remind you I am still fully capable of magic while they are not. Even so I created the barrier and as such I can manipulate it however I wish. Keeping myself safe within its borders is easier than turning mice into footmen." Fairy Godmother said, determined to get the King to allow the plan. She was determined to see it through now that the issue had been brought to her attention. Adam was still frowning, his dislike for the whole situation palpable. Belle turned towards her and Ben, with a smile.

"If you are sure none of them could hurt you then I really cannot see a downside to this plan." Belle said, giving them her support. At her words Adam's shoulder slumped, knowing he wouldn't win an argument against all three of them.

"Fine, but you are explaining all this to the council." He said, pointing at Ben. Ben nodded, beaming brightly while Fairy Godmother sighed in relief, sending Belle a thankful smile.

Later that day, Fairy Godmother found herself back in her office. A bag was on her desk, filled with pens and paper and chalk. She wasn't entirely sure what she would need on the Isle, so for now she would start simply. A letter had already been sent to both Dragon Hall and Serpent Prep informing them of her arrival and that her class on remedial goodness would not be optional to any of the student. The guards had come back fairly shaken, but Fairy Godmother didn't let that dissuade her. A knock on the door had her turning away from the window just as Belle walked in. Fairy Godmother was fairly surprised, the Queen rarely visited her in her office.

"I hope I'm not disturbing you."

"No, not all, what may I do for you?" Fairy Godmother asked. Belle smiled slightly at she saw the bag.

"I have a request. You are a friend of mine and a mentor to my son, I do not wish for anything bad to happen to you. I know you can manipulate the barrier to protect you, but I would just feel safer if you could defend yourself. We've seen what those villains are capable of, and many of them didn't need magic to be wicked."

"What are you saying?"

"I am requesting you take your wand with you, only to use in emergencies."

"You want me to take an extraordinarily powerful magical artifact onto the Isle?"

"Yes, I trust you will keep it out of dangerous hands. I know it's irrational, but I don't want to risk losing you. You're the reason most of us are still here." Belle's expression was dead serious and Fairy Godmother couldn't help but feel touched at the level of trust and care Belle had towards her. It had crossed her mind to bring the wand to the Isle, honestly manipulating the barrier would be a pain without it, but she had suspected such a request wouldn't go over well with Adam. He would have said they had given up magic, even as the raw power flowed through her veins and ached to be let out into the world to help. Fairy Godmother smiled fondly at Belle and nodded. She would prove Belle's trust was not misplaced.

"If you insist."

"I do."
