Surprise! Hope you guys don't mind the double update :) x
Ben was instantly by Mal's side and Jane was instantly by her mother's, both of them extremely worried as guards came running into the Cathedral and paramedics were called.
As Mal's eyes fluttered open she grimaced at the bright lights that were shining in her eyes. She carefully shuffled up into a sitting position, since her stomach was hurting her, and noticed her phone that Ben had given her was on the bedside cabinet. Slowly she leaned over and grabbed her phone, turning it on so she could see the time and date. Mal was shocked by the date on her phone. She had been unconscious in hospital for three days. It had been three days since Ben's coronation, an event she couldn't really remember.
Looking around the room Mal could easily see that people had been there. Before she could think about calling anyone a nurse entered the room. "Ah, Miss Mal. It's nice to see you awake." The woman said happily. "How are you feeling?" She asked.
"I ache and my stomach is killing me." She told the nurse. "What happened? Why do I feel like this?" She asked.
"You don't remember?" The red headed nurse asked the purplette. Mal immediately shook her head as the woman stepped forward and detached the drip from her arm. "Miss Mal, during King Ben's coronation Maleficent appeared and told you that she wasn't your mother when you didn't give her Fairy Godmother's wand." She began explained, and it started to slowly come back to the purplette. "She then threatened Princess Becky and when Maleficent attacked you and King Ben Fairy Godmother stepped in to try and protect you. Unfortunately Fairy Godmother was out of practice with her magic and took a bad hit. You then stepped in and fought the Mistress of All Evil to save her which ended in you both being unconscious."
The purplette was beyond shocked but as it all came back to her she couldn't help but worry about the Headmistress. "How is Fairy Godmother? Please tell me she's okay." Mal said to the nurse.
The red head handed Mal some tablets and a cup of water. "Take those and then I'll tell you." The nurse ordered. The purplette swallowed the tablets with some of the water before turning to face the chuckling nurse. "Eager, aren't you?" She joked before her face turned serious. "Fairy Godmother is still unconscious unfortunately. She's down the hall in room 283. You're not really supposed to be out of bed but I'm assuming that you won't listen and I'd rather have you go straight to the room you want instead of wandering around and injuring yourself more."
"Thank you." Mal said. She watched the red head nurse leave before she slowly and carefully climbed out of the bed, thankful she was in her own pajamas. Slipping on her dressing gown she slowly walked out of her room down and down towards where she knew Fairy Godmother to be. When she came to room 283 she slipped through the partially open door but stopped in her tracks as she saw someone sat next to the Headmistress' bed. "I'm sorry. I'll just go." Mal said before turning to leave.
"Wait." The man said causing Mal to stop in her tracks and turn to face him. "You're Mal right?" He asked the purple haired teen. Seeing the teen nod to his he couldn't help but send her a sad smile. "I've been meaning to come and see you. I wanted to thank you." He told her.
Mal couldn't help but be shocked by this. She couldn't think of any reason why this man would need to thank her for anything. "Thank me for what, Sir?" The purplette asked him.
With a smile the man stood and took a few steps towards the purple haired teen. "Please, call me Merlin." He told her and Mal nodded in agreement. "I'm thanking you because I heard what you did for Jennifer. Fairy Godmother." Merlin stated/explained to the purplette. "King Ben, King Adam and Queen Belle came to see me and told me that without you stepping in when you did then Jennifer's injuries would have been much worse. So thank you." The man said.
"How is she?" The purplette asked.
"There isn't any change. She's stable but still unconscious." He explained.
The purplette was about to ask about Jane but they were interrupted by Evie. "Mal, there you are. Come on. You should be resting." The blunette said. After Mal said goodbye to Merlin Evie led the purplette back to her hospital room and helped her back into bed. "There we go. Ben said he would be back as soon as his council meeting was over." She told Mal. "What were you doing there anyway?" She asked.
"I just wanted to see how Fairy Godmother was. I felt guilty." Mal said earning herself a confused expression from Evie. "It was my fault that Jane felt like she wasn't pretty and had to steal her mothers wand. If I hadn't have done that to her then there wouldn't be a hole in the barrier and Maleficent wouldn't have gotten free." The purple haired teen explained before she suddenly remembered something. "Wait, what happened to Diablo?" She asked, remembering him flying off during her fight with the Mistress of All Evil.
Evie couldn't help but sigh at her best friend/pseudo sister's question. "The guards have been searching the entire Kingdom but they can't find him." She said. "I've tried using my mirror but haven't had any luck either." She told Mal.
"Do you have your mirror with you now?" Mal asked. Seeing Evie nod and take the small mirror from her pocket she smiled a little. "Think you can ask it who my mother is?" She asked. "I need to know E. I need to know why they gave me up and I was taken in by Maleficent." The purplette explained.
Nodding Evie looked down at her mirror. "Mirror, mirror, please do this. Show me who Mal's mother is." The blunette said to the mirror in her hand. But as a picture appeared Evie couldn't help but gasp.
Seeing Mal's confused and worried expression Evie turned the mirror so the purplette could see the picture. "No." The purplette said. "That can't be right. It's got to be a mistake. Evie, please tell me your mirror is wrong." The half fairy said and Evie shook her head, silently telling Mal she thought the mirror was right. The blunette knew the mirror was correct, it had never let her down before and she doubted it would this time. Mal couldn't help but feel hurt, annoyed, upset and every emotion in between. "But that can't be my mother. That's Fairy Godmother."
