Descendants – The Lost Princess
Hey Guys! I wanted to add a little note before this chapter. I have decided that Lizzy will have a relationship and I have an idea about who it will be with. If you want to make any suggestions, feel free to. This chapter is mainly going to be about Lizzy and her perspective when they first arrive because we already know what happens with the others. It is going to be in first person point of view. I have received a lot of positive reviews from people about how they are really liking the story, so thank you. I hope you all enjoy this chapter!
Making New Friends
Lizzy P.O.V.
After I informed Doug that I was a year older than the others, he told me that we should head to Fairy Godmother's office. I was a bit nervous walking through the big hallways. My whole life, I was basically locked away in a house. Granted it was a large house, but it was nothing compared to the castle I was in now. There were students and professors everywhere. It was overwhelming. I tried my best to think of something else. I thought of my family. It really was the only thing that I thought about since the Q.O.H. told me that my birth parents were somewhere in Auradon. (I know I wrote this like a hundred times before, but just bear with me). I desperately wanted to know everything about them. Doug and I walked the whole way without saying anything to each other. We were both trapped in our own thoughts. I bet that he was thinking about Evie. After their meeting earlier, I could tell that he liked her. Ironic, I know.
"Here we are," Doug announced as we stopped in front of a wooden door with a tag that said 'Headmistress Fairy Godmother'. I was pulled from my thoughts while Doug knocked on the door.
"It's open! Come on in!" I heard someone call from the other side of the door. It had to be F.G. Doug twisted the golden knob gently before pushing the door open. He walked inside and I followed. Once we were both in, Doug closed the door.
"Hello again, Fairy Godmother," Doug said as I looked around. She had a very interesting office. It was smaller than I thought it would be, but the size made it a little cozy. There was a small wooden desk that was in the back of the room. It was in front of a large window that was letting in a lot of light. Next to the desk was a small fireplace that wasn't being used at the moment. There were two very large bookshelves that had been pushed up against the walls. I couldn't help but be amazed. I had never seen so much color or life in a room before. It was honestly beautiful. All the rooms back at my old house were very gray and dusty.
"Hello, Doug! What can I do for you?" Fairy Godmother asked as she looked up from her stack of papers. She saw me standing next to Doug and her smile seemed to grow bigger. I didn't think that was possible. "You must be Elizabeth Hearts." I nodded slowly. At first I was a little impressed she figured it out, but as I looked at myself I knew it was quite obvious. The colors, the wig, the contacts, and the small crown headband I was wearing were dead giveaways. "What do you two need?" She set her papers down and folded her hands together.
"Well, Lizzy is 17, so I thought we should revise her schedule," Doug explained while he placed his clipboard on F.G.'s desk. She picked it up and looked over it.
"Yes, I agree," F.G. stated as she pulled out a pen and began to make some alterations. "So, History of Woodsmen and Pirates is being replaced by History of Magic and Sorcerers. Safety Rules for the Internet is being replaced by Anti-Bullying Lessons. Remedial Goodness 101 will stay the same." F.G. handed the clipboard back to Doug. He inspected the new schedule before handing it to me.
"Thanks," I said to F.G. as I looked over my new schedule. I gave Doug back his clipboard when I was finished.
"No problem child," F.G. replied kindly. "Is that all?"
"Yes. That's all," Doug answered before turning around to leave.
"Actually, no. That's not all," I admitted as Doug stopped walking. He turned around and looked at me curiously.
"What else do you need?" F.G. asked. She was also looking at me curiously. I waited a moment, unsure on how I was going to ask.
"Do you keep the kingdom's records in the library?" I finally managed to say. F.G. looked at me with confusion in her eyes.
"I'm not sure I know what you mean, dear. Care to elaborate?" F.G. questioned while I thought carefully of what I was going to say next.
"I mean, like birth records, or missing persons files. Stuff like that," I explained as F.G. thought about what I was asking her. A minute or two went by before she finally answered.
"I believe you can get digital copies on the computers," F.G. responded.
"Thanks so much," I said before leaving her office with Doug. Once we got back to the entrance of the school or castle or whatever this place was, Doug and I parted ways so I could find my dorm room. After a few minutes of searching, I finally found it. The sun was beginning to set, so I bet that my new roommate, ugh, was inside. I gently knocked on the door and waited for an answer. The door opened up a crack and a saw a pair of blue eyes and a lock of blonde hair peeking through the crack. I then heard a gasp come from inside the room and the door quickly shut. I rolled my eyes. I must have scared her off.
"Um, hey can you open the door? I don't have a key yet," I knocked once more. I was getting fed up with this. I just wanted to head inside and rest before I went to meet up with the others.
"Who is it?" A girl's voice asked me while I waited impatiently.
"It's your new roommate," I said as the door swung open. I stepped back in surprise. I wasn't expecting the door to open that quickly. A girl with blonde hair and blue highlights, blue eyes, a blue dress with black and flower accents, blue and white striped leggings, and black heels was standing in front of me.
"Why didn't you just say so?!" She squealed with delight while she grabbed my arm and pulled me into the room. She shut the door before going to sit down in front of her vanity. I surveyed the area and I was a little disappointed by what I saw. The room was covered in pink. I wasn't a huge fan of pink. She quickly put her hair up in a ponytail and tied a dark navy blue ribbon around it. She opened the draw and pulled out a key. She stood up and walked towards me. "Hi! I'm Ally! I'm the daughter of Alice. She was the woman who ended up in Wonderland. Anyway, here is your key." She extended her hand for me to shake. Oh boy. The last person I wanted to have to share a room with. I slowly took and hand and shook it. Then, she handed me my key. "That is your bed over there." She pointed to the bed that was farthest away from the door.
"Great. Thanks so much," I replied with a little sarcasm hidden in my voice as I walked around the room closing the curtains. Even though the sun was going down, it was way too bright in here. My bags were already leaning against one of the legs of my new bed. I quickly picked up my backpack and headed over to the vanity. Before I sat down I slipped my new key into the front pocket.
"So, which villain is your parent?" Ally asked, trying to make conversation. I unzipped my backpack and pulled out my makeup bag. It was black and had a red heart 'wearing' a golden crown printed on it. The printed design matched my birthmark, but with the color.
"If you mean which villain raised me, then it was the Queen of Hearts," I calmly stated as Ally flinched at the mention of the name. I removed my wig and carefully placed it on the table. My long brown hair flowed down before resting on my back. I removed the red contacts and put them away in my makeup bag. My brown eyes were finally visible. Those are two features that I thought I would never see again.
"The Queen of Hearts? Like the one from Wonderland?" Ally asked as she took a seat on her bed. I took out a makeup wipe and removed my intense black eyeshadow and red lipstick.
"Is there another Queen of Hearts that I could be referring to?" I asked sarcastically as I applied a light blue and gold eyeshadow. (The gold was for the inner part of the eyelid. The part closest to the nose).
"Well, I guess not. It's just that my mother told me a lot of horrible thing about the Queen of Hearts. Like how she beheaded a lot of people," Ally and I both shivered at the thought. I had some horrible memories of that. I put my eyeshadow away and took out my eyeliner and mascara.
"She does like to punish people. Now more than ever. She still hasn't come to terms with the whole imprisonment thing," I explained as I outlined my eyes with a dark blue. I then applied mascara before moving on my lips.
"You don't even look anything like your mother. I mean you did when you were wearing the wig and contacts and stuff. But not so much anymore," Ally said matter-of-factly while I glared at her in the mirror. She was looking at me curiously. I clenched my lip gloss so hard that my knuckles turned white.
"Don't ever call that old hag my mother again! Do you understand?" I snapped as I turned in my seat so I could look her in her eyes. I must have scared her again because she didn't say anything. She only nodded. I turned back to the mirror to finish off the rest of my makeup. (Light pink lip gloss and blush) When I did, I put my makeup bag back in my backpack. I placed my wig in my other bag before I started to go through it. "Here it is," I muttered mainly to myself. I entered the bathroom and changed into a royal blue long sleeved dress, a gold belt, and royal blue ankle boots that matched my dress. I kept on my black leggings, gold cuff bracelets with a matching gold collar, a yellow headband with a small crown, any my ruby heart locket. I didn't know why, but I felt like blue suited me more than red. I stepped out of the bathroom carrying my red long sleeved shirt, red skirt with black polka dots, and black ankle boots. I have a thing for ankle boots. Don't judge me.
"Wow! You look so pretty!" Ally admired as she looked up from the book she was reading.
"Thanks, Ally," I said while I carefully folded my clothes and placed them on my bed. I unpacked the rest of my things and put them all away. It didn't take long since I didn't have much. For the finishing touch, I placed my old rag doll on my bed.
"That's kind of cute. Where did you get it?" Ally asked me as she place down her book. I sat down on my bed and recalled the memory.
"It was a birthday gift from the King of Hearts. He didn't know exactly when my birthday was, so he just picked a random day and called it my birthday. We celebrated my birthday on that day every year after that," I had to hold back tears that threatened to come out.
"That's sweet," Ally replied as she came to sit next to me.
"Yeah, he was the only one who actually cared about me," Ally placed a sympathetic hand on my shoulder. We sat in silence for a moment.
"Hey, I'm going down to the library. Do you want to come with me?" Ally asked, breaking the silence. I thought about it for a minute before responding.
"Maybe later. I have to go meet up with the others," I got up from the bed and grabbed my backpack. I made my way to the door and opened it. "Thanks, Ally. And I genuinely mean that." I think I just made my first friend at Auradon Prep. I left Ally alone in our room with a smile on her face. I closed the door behind me and headed off to find the others.
