A/N: We've gotten rid of Mickey Mouse this chapter.

Yep. You bet.

Now we're gonna be serious.

Ahhh… that's right…

You sound uncertain.

Because I am. I mean, I'm thrilled, and I have a story right here. I can tell you that amazing tale of mine right here, right now. So. Do you want to hear how I-

No.

-totally died during the Grizzly Gulch ride-

NO.

-when I went to Hong Kong Disneyland the other day?

No, thanks, Player.

What about that time on the Forbidden Journey ride in Osaka, and then I saw Hermione and then I saw Draco Malfoy and I was like, Oh my gosh, it's-

I WILL GAG YOU.

(Chapter written by PlayerPrincessJediFANGIRL and starrystarrysteph, beta'd by camilledicaramello. We almost let princessartmateur write this too, but we decided not to. It was a very wise decision.)Instead of being chastised for trouble, which would not have been surprising for her, seeing how that happened frequently during her First and Second Years, she was now tasked with a large job consisting phrases like 'bring both sides together' and 'balls' and 'old prejudice'. That was new. The biggest thing she'd done with her life was probably 'not get killed', with 'becoming queen' in close second. Now that the war had ended, Agatha did agree with the fact someone did need to unite both sides for once and for all. But she did not expect to be that someone. Come to think of that, she hadn't expected to return, either.

By the time she was dismissed, Beautification was over (Agatha wanted to sigh in relief) and Royal Manners, the brand-new replacement for the rather gender-unequal subjects Princess Etiquette and Chivalry, was halfway finished. Luckily for her, Professor Dovey had sent a note to Pollux explaining Agatha's tardiness, so he didn't bite her head off for being late.

Because of the unequal number between boys and girls (Tedros had dropped out for good reason, and the tragic deaths of Nicholas and Tristan had caused another tip on the scale), Agatha was paired with Kiko, to both girls' happiness. Kiko filled Agatha up with the latest gossip as Pollux taught poise and grace, and Agatha told Kiko how things were going for her. Kiko had took a shining to her Captain's diadem, which attracted not only Kiko but all the Evers' attention. Self-conscious under so many pairs of gazes, Agatha was mildly comforted when class was over.

The life-threatening risk (to her, mostly) of being turned into a wolf for punishment for failure was gone and erased from the rule book, but none of the Evers had let their guard down. They were all still fiercely competitive, though Agatha could see the friendliness between challenges and glares. The Evers had spent a whole year as Nevers, and the suffering had brought every one of them together. Agatha felt slight remorse over causing all of them to fall into the School Master's cruelty, since it was honestly her, Tedros, and Sophie's fault, but if she hadn't, it seemed this special bond between all of them wouldn't have existed in the dark world.

Princess Uma resumed her role as the Animal Communication professor, after 2 years of being on the run. Her role as a League member was largely appreciated by both the Evers and Nevers, and the Evergirls looked euphoric to see their famous and brave professor once again.

Uma waved at Agatha when they arrived at the lake, where they had their lessons. It was weird to see Uma in her pink teacher's gown again, after practically living with the princess who wore ninja clothes for months. Agatha waved back.

"Hello again, class," Uma addressed the students. She seemed a little unsure of what to do, probably shocked at having boys in her class for the first time, or because she hadn't been teaching for a couple of years. "Good morning."

"Good morning, Professor," they echoed back.

"Well," Uma started hesitantly. "Let's start our class. And today, we'll be introducing one of the most famous animals of all time- considered a myth, even- the unicorn."

As Uma babbled away about unicorns, confidence returning full-force once she was in her comfort zone, Agatha fiddled with her diadem, which was sloping off her head in the most annoying way. She wondered if Hester was worried about the stress of being Captain. The witch, Agatha mused, was probably at ease as she grew up commanding her henchmen left and right. But bringing sides to unity seemed much harder than being bossy.

"Unicorns, in Alchemy and folklore, which I believe some of you will be taking," Uma stroked the unicorn's mane. "Represents 'one'. In runic scripture- which I don't know, but some of you will- unicorns are portrayed as a symbol for number one for its singular horn. Now, I want you all to line up and slowly stroke the unicorn's snout, to see if it likes you. A hint- they prefer a woman's touch, so don't be aggressive."

The Evers formed a straight line and each one of them took turns caressing the unicorn's snowy white snout. The unicorn was indeed more fond of the girls, whining softly when they petted it. The unicorn stood taller and tilted its head upwards whenever a boy approached, intimidating and majestic.

When it was Agatha's turn the unicorn seed extremely happy to see her, whether that was because it could smell her Goodness or the sugar that stuck on her hand from a sugar donut back at breakfast. It very nearly pressed its nose onto her hand and neighed.

"Oh, Agatha, it likes you," Kiko said once Agatha had left the unicorn, which whined noisily and seemed very unhappy about the arrangement. "It's so cute, don't you think? Wish I had one," she said wistfully.

Agatha wanted to point out the unicorn was probably sexist and was a whiny brat, but she didn't voice it. If she did, Kiko would probably never speak to her again.

Professor Dovey had chose not to continue as the Good Deeds professor. ("To busy clearing up the war mess," she'd explained and sent a pointed look towards Agatha.) Instead, she had found Professor Glinda, the Good Witch of Oz, a good friend of Dovey's, to take over the class. The students were stunned by the arrival of yet another famous fairy tale star (the first two being Uma and Dovey, the Fairy Godmother herself) and Glinda proved to be a competent teacher herself, telling hilarious jokes like Why did the Oz cross the road? and How many Munchkins does it take to change a candle? (Four- one to extinguish the light, one to act as the ladder, one to climb onto the first light the candle, and one to point out that they could've just used magic.) throughout the lesson. She liked to laugh and wave her hands dramatically around. That was surely a change from Dovey, but the new professor seemed amiable and approachable enough.

While Dovey was strict and fair, Glinda was bubbly and their class was very active. Whereas Dovey would sit them down for quizzes, Glinda sort the class into 4 groups and let them run to the blackboard to write their group's answer. Whoever was fastest and most accurate won. At the end of the class Agatha's group (her, Tarquin, Kiko and Oliver) came second, losing only to Beatrix's group, which was by all means a talented group. The one mark Agatha's group had lost, though, was gained by Chaddick, a swift runner in Beatrix's team.

Perspiration beaded her forehead after so much running, but Agatha was smiling too much to care. It had been a delightful lesson, to say the least.

Defense Against Evil was not as defensive as she thought it would be.

Professor Espada, the former Swordplay Professor, sneered a little when he saw girls trooping into the room. "Girls," he said. "Let's see how good you are at the master art of battle."

"We're not going to battle," Beatrix put in bluntly (Agatha admired her bravery). "The textbook says we'll learn a few spells and handle some easier weapons, but not battle."

The professor was stunned into silence- even more so when clever Beatrix showed him how competent she was at the Fireball Spell, and Kiko the Acid Jinx. The Evers took turns performing their best spells for this lesson, and when it was Agatha's turn, she turned a quiver of flying arrows into daisies, while Kiko helped her with the shooting part (after the war Kiko had started taking archery lessons, as the last time she'd done that on a stymph in a war, she'd killed a zombie and it was 'exhilarating').

"Well, I must say, I'm rather impressed," Professor Espada finally said at the end of class. "We'll be learning advanced spells starting tomorrow, so prepare yourselves for difficult challenges ahead."

He swept from the room, and from the corner of her eye, Agatha could see Beatrix high-fiving Reena.

The rest of the day passed surprisingly swiftly. Agatha was mildly disappointed that Alchemy was scheduled only on Wednesdays (with more classes, the timetable was entirely different, with different classes at different times slots one every day of the week, instead of the same timetable every day), because from what she'd gathered during Uma's class, Alchemy seemed intriguing and very, very challenging. It had something to do with runes… numbers… and unicorns. Definitely not gym, then, Agatha decided. Thank goodness for that.

Her first day was a lot of fun, albeit the disappointment of not having Alchemy class. Yuba the Gnome, one of her most helpful mentors, had also returned and resumed teaching. He proudly showed his Forest Group his new house, built near the Blue Forest and his former house, which was burnt to a crisp.

"Old Dovey funded the furniture," he'd said. "Dwarf furniture costs twice as much as your typical furniture, you know."

There was also lunch, where Sophie had opted to eat with her, instead of taking lunch in the Dean's office.

"We've got greens in every meal now," Sophie'd bragged loudly as she delicately bit on lettuce. "And cucumbers are served in every meal."

Agatha'd tried not to laugh when she saw Hester spit out her vegetables with a loud "Gack!" and complain to Anadil and Dot, as Sophie chattered all about the goodness of greens.

The Halfway Bridge connecting the two schools was rebuilt, and only people with permission could cross it. Professor Dovey had given Agatha and Hester the privilege, as they needed to patrol both schools as Captains.

Agatha met Hester at the doors of the School for Evil. Hester pushed the two large doors, and Agatha was once again in the hall where she had been lots of times- mostly to find Sophie, that one time where she had to sneak into the School for Old to retrieve Excalibur.

"This way." Hester's finger lit up with a light spell, and they started to head down the hall.

As Sophie had told her, the School had been redecorate. The vandalised portraits of past Nevers were replaced with new ones in black frames. Agatha could see Hester smirk when they passed the portrait of the Witch of Gingerbread House, with a delicately decorated frame and a plaque underneath, proclaiming 'Gertrude of Foxwood- Proud Mother of Hester of Ravensbow'.

"That's really nice of Sophie," Agatha commented. "I'm sure your mother would've been proud of you."

"Agreed," Hester replied dryly. "I'm twice the witch she is, or rather, was. Prejudiced against Good, even though she had excellent reasons to loathe you pink-dress princesses. That's why I agreed to be Captain. To prove her wrong. Balance and all that."

"You are a very brilliant witch," Agatha said honestly.

"Thank you," Hester shrugged, though she looked pleased.

They finished patrolling the lower floors when Hester suggested they not go up to the dorms.

"Rendezvous going up there," Hester explained. "Sophie threw Mona a birthday party. The Dark Fairy was one of the greatest gatecrashers of us Nevers, but I don't think they'd approve of a party-crasher, especially not you. You've done enough crashing already during our first No Ball."

"Alright, then," Agatha decided. "Ready to go to Good?"

They crossed the bridge and entered the School for Good, where Hester complained about the bright colors. "The year we were stuck in this school was enough torture," Hester grouched, referring to their Second Year. "All those sparkly bling jewels and crystals blinded me."

"I used to think that in my First Year," Agatha confessed. "All that glitter. Horrible. And do you know how many mirrors are there on just the ground floor? A hundred. You can only imagine how narcissistic the designer was."

Hester chuckled at her friend as they continued their patrol.

A/N: I swear, the Alchemy will come along soon enough- just one or two more chapters!
