Chapter 1: Heavily Broken
Author's Note: Ebony and Bianca are musical characters and so each chapter will be based off of a different song. I decided to make their story a series of song fics. Credit to the band and song will be at the bottom of every chapter.
Everyday I sit here waiting
Everyday just seems so long
And now I've had enough of all the hating
Do we even care, it's so unfair
Any day it'll all be over
Everyday there's nothing new
And now I just try to find some hope
To try and hold onto
But it starts again
It'll never end
Ebony and Bianca walk around the Isle of the Lost. They move through the labyrinthian forest trying to find shelter for the night. Gaston had kicked them out yet again, not by words though, by his fist. A blackish-blue bruise was forming on Bianca's leg. A gunshot rings through the forest and they take off at a run. Deer run alongside the twins as the shots ring closer and closer. They duck into a cave as the thundering footsteps of Gaston and his 6 sons run past the cave not seeing the twins.
"I don't see them father," the eldest son says "they'll be long gone till morning. We can deal with them then." Gaston walks off back to their hunting lodge where the bimbettes waited for the boys and Gaston to return. The 5 eldest boys follow and the youngest of them glances into the cave. He knew the twins were in there and subtly threw in a loaf of stale bread before running to catch up with the others. Ebony and Bianca pounce of the loaf of bread and scarf half of it down like rapid pack animals. They wrap the rest up in a ripped piece of Ebony's shirt and tuck it into an alcove in the cave wall.
"Should we even bother ever going back? We can always try to contact Carlos. He might be able to talk King Ben into letting us out of here." Ebony says hopefully getting Bianca to grimace "Why would they let US into Auradon? Our 'dad' tried to kill Beast. For all they know, we might just be broken enough to finish Beast off for him," Bianca points out not considering Gaston to be a father figure in the slightest. "Just get some sleep Ebony. Fang will help us out. He always comes through for us."
I'm heavily broken
And I don't know what to do
Can't you see that I'm choking
And I can't even move
When there's nothing left to say
What can you do?
I'm heavily broken
And there's nothing I can do
Their entire lives were like this. Running from their father. Not a will to fight, just a will to flee. But they can never run far. He always finds them, and they always have to pay the price for running away. They can't get off the island with the barrier anyways. Carlos was lucky enough to get off the Isle. Why would they chose them? They are far beyond help.
Almost given up on trying
Almost heading for a fall
And now my mind is screaming out
I've gotta keep on fighting
But then again
It doesn't end
The next morning the twins emerge from the cave. They kept the bread hidden as an emergency stash just in case they have to run away for yet another night. "Are you sure this is the best idea Bianca?" Ebony asks turning her head to face me clasping Bianca's left hand with her right hand. "We might as well go back. Maybe he will go easy on us this time… or we should just at like the type of girls he wants us to be," Bianca answers. Her long black hair whips in the wind making her high cheekbones show. Her blue eyes glitter in the morning sun as she looks up to the sky. "Then again, what is the point? Nothing will ever get better. It never does." Bianca sighs and looks down her black hair falling in front of her face like a dark curtain. "Carlos will get us out. He has to, he promised to help us," Ebony says holding onto the last piece of hope that the twins have.
I'm heavily broken
And I don't know what to do
Can't you see that I'm choking
And I can't even move
When there's nothing left to say
What can you do?
I'm heavily broken
And there's nothing I can do
And there's nothing I can do
"You girls don't have to go back. Carlos probably forgot about his promise to you two by now, just like how Evie forgot her promise to me," a dark voice says from behind them. The twins turn around to look at the tall, lean muscled boy with dark brown hair who was leaning against a tree close by. "We don't want to depend on you Fang. Sometimes we just have to face our fears." Ebony says.
"Yeah and get hit again. Gaston doesn't treat you guys like how you should be treated. Just come live with me and my dad, he already sees you two as his daughter's anyways." Fang says shaking his long shaggy hair out of his face as he spoke. "We don't want to be a burden to the Huntsman either. Just drop it Fang, someday our father will respect us." Ebony says with confidence. "Now that is the attitude you need to really piss off your dad. Go show him what you girls are made of" Fang smirks before disappearing into the woods with the gracefulness of a wolf stalking his prey.
Feels like I'm drowning
I'm screaming for air
(Screaming for air)
Louder I'm crying
And you don't even care
"You girls are a disgrace!" Gaston yells at Ebony and Bianca "first you ask if you can get an education and then you want to be treated as equals! You girls will never get far at this rate!" Gaston roars hitting Bianca across the face. Bianca's head whips to the side her hair flying out. Ebony goes to punch Gaston but is shoved into a wall.
I'm heavily broken
And I don't know what to do
Can't you see that I'm choking
And I can't even move
(What can I do)
When there's nothing left to say
What can you do
I'm heavily broken
The window smashes as Fang jumps into the cabin. He forces Gaston against a wall and punches him repeatedly before Gaston can respond. "Get outside, Carlos and Evie arranged for us to get to Auradon. Hurry!" Fang growls keeping Gaston busy as the twins grab their stuff and run outside to the limo that was waiting out front. They throw their bags into the trunk and hop in the back just as Fang comes racing out of the front door like a race horse out of the starting gate and jumps into the front seat. Gaston follows Fang out and is stuck eating dirt as the limo speeds off to whisk the three misfit villain kids to Auradon for the start of a new life.
I'm heavily broken
And I don't know what to do
Can't you see that I'm choking
And I can't even move
When there's nothing left to say
What can you do?
I'm heavily broken [x3]
