Hi everyone! First, I really apologize! I know I haven't updated any chapter, but here is chapter 8. I would like to thank Demi Brackensick and Pseudonymperson who reviewed my last chapter.

The reason why I took so long updating the story is because I'm going back to school next week, so... I had to prepare many things... I know my life is so exiting... hahaha... Anyway, I hope you like this chapter :).


After the homecoming dance, everything had come back to normality. School had come back to its usual ways, and nobody was expecting nothing more than a normal week.


Merida had just waken up. She hadn't been sleeping well since 2 days because of studying. After staring at her wall during about 15 minutes she realized she was about to be late to school. She just put on a pair of jeans and a simple blue t-shirt. Her hair was as always messy and wild, but she always found it looked funny.

She ran through the living room and started to open the door.

"I'm going late Mom, bye!" she said.

"Wait Merida!"

"What's going on?! I don't have much time." the young girl said worried.

She had already arrived late 1 time, and after 3 times of being late, there was a detention given.

"I need to have a serious talk with you." her mother, Elinor, said.

"What did I do now?" Merida asked.

She knew that every time those words came out from her mother's mouth it meant she had done something. During a moment Merida felt worried, maybe her mother had discovered that she was in the archery club, but she felt relief after hearing her mother's answer.

"Two days ago we received a phone call from a boy."

"Really? Who was it?" Merida said rolling her eyes.

It was surely one of those guys her mother was trying to pair her with.

"A boy named Eric Andersen." her mother said with a little smile.

As soon as she finished her sentence Merida found herself rolling her eyes again. She had already had too many problems with this Eric, and now he was even calling her home. She didn't even know how he had managed to have her phone number.

"Look I can explain it to you." Merida started to say.

"Merida this is wonderful."

"What?" she asked surprised.

"Yes! You have a boyfriend." her mother said cheerfully.

"I- I- don't know how to-" Merida started to say trying to explain her mother what had happened.

"You don't need to explain anything. You should go, it's getting late." her mother said almost pushing her out of the house.


Quasimodo was sitting in the teacher's room couch. Students weren't normally allowed to be in that room, but the principal had arranged himself to allow Quasimodo to be as long as he wanted in that room, due to his "special condition". Apparently Miss Kida had seen a student hiding inside the janitor's closet...

Since Quasimodo had met this girl, Esmeralda, he had found himself feeling more confident. He was still a very shy person but somehow, after meeting Esmeralda, he felt that there was a small chance that people could like him. She had to be definetely the most kind person he had known.

He had been sitting inside since about half an hour and his next class was about to star in 15 minutes. He heard how the door opened quietly and started to feel nervous. He knew it was obviously some teacher, but even with them he was shy. For his "luck" the person who had just entered the room was his Uncle Frollo.

"Quasimodo." he said quietly.

"Yes, Uncle."

"I've noticed that you spend less time here." he said sitting next to his nephew.

"Really?" Quasimodo asked nervously.

He was very aware that what his uncle was saying was true, but he knew he wouldn't understand, not even believe he had a "friend", and not just a "friend", but a friend who happened to be a girl. Quasimodo had even found himself thinking sometimes of her as a possible girlfriend, but at the same time, he knew that it was almost something impossible.

"Tell me! What are you hiding!?" the man said harshly.

"Nothing!" Quasimodo said at loud.

"You're meeting someone." Frollo deduced.

Somehow this poor creature had managed to gain the compassion of someone, but he couldn't understand who would.

"No, no I would never dare!"

"Oh Quasimodo, I though you already knew how terrible teenagers are. What makes you think someone would actually care about you?" Frollo said in a compassionate voice tone.

He didn't believe for a second what Quasimodo was saying. It was maybe his nephew's kind nature which made him completely incapable of lying effectively.

"I've told you a thousand times that I am the only person who cares about you. If what I'm saying wasn't true, would you be hiding inside this room?"

"No... I know how bad teenagers are, Uncle. I know no one cares about me but you, and I'm thankful." Quasimodo said.

He truly believed that Esmeralda was kind to him genuinely but somehow his Uncle's words weren't that erroneous.

Frollo had adopted him as his own son, Quasimodo always thought. Even if he had never knew anything better. He had been bullied by other kids years ago when he went out to the streets. And till this day there was also people laughing at him, but something that Frollo had taught him and that was completely right is that teenagers actually laugh at people's back, while at least children do it directly.

"I am afraid you don't understand the seriousness of this conversation. I

suppose you want to discover it by yourself." Frollo said.

He knew very well that Quasimodo was hiding something, and that he was not going to reveal it. If he wasn't going to do it, he had to discover it by himself.

"No, uncle, please, I would never dare to think that."

"Don't talk anymore, now go to your class. You'll find out it by yourself eventually." Frollo said before Quasimodo left.


"I'm sorry we had to cancel our plans last week." Mulan said to Pocahontas as they were walking down the hallway.

Pocahontas was about to have Biology class, which happened to be her favorite, but Mulan was about to have her first class in the athletics team, and to be honest, she wasn't particulary happy about it, in fact she was really nervous.

Something else was also in Mulan's mind. She had been planning a surprise for her friend since the homecoming dance, but unfortunately, last weeks had been a little busy, so she had had to postpone her plan.

"You mean you're sorry for not kidnapping me for the whole weekend..." Pocahontas said sarcastically.

"I know it's going to help you. It is time for you to face the situation, and if you don't listen to me, you'll listen to the person we'll see." Mulan said.

She knew that if someone didn't tell Pocahontas to stop agreeing to everything she was told to do, including being Kocoum's girlfriend, she was going to end up marrying him.

"If you say so... Is it far?"

"No, well, we'll have to drive for an hour, maybe two, but I'll borrow my mother's car. I hope I still remember the adress." Mulan said a little worried.

"Two hours?! Are we going to Canada or what? And you're telling me you don't even know the adress!?"

"Trust me, just have faith." Mulan said jokingly.


"I'm Li Shang, I'll be your trainer this year. I don't want to hear any lame excuses when we practice such as "I'm tired" etc... etc... I don't want any of you questioning my training methods, so if you have something to tell me, I recomend you to leave right now."

Mulan had just enterred the first athletics team class. She was wearing huge clothes and she had lift up her hair in a bun. She was wearing headphones just as she was listening to music, but she actually had connected the headphones to her phone, and on the other side of the line there was Mushu. She was extremely nervous by the fact that Captain Li Shang already had seen her as Mulan.

After hearing his speech, she couldn't believe that this man was the same one she had met the day of the homecoming dance who had been very funny and nice to her. But then she remebered that she wasn't actually Mulan right now, she had to man up, and become Ping.

The whole team was standing in a line and Mulan could hear Mushu's breathing though the headphones.

"You." Shang said pointing to Mulan.

"Yeah..." Mulan started to say in a girly voice, "I mean yes!" she corrected herself using the male voice Mushu had thaught her.

Captain Shang started to walk towards her until he was just a couple of inches in front of her.

"Have I seen you before?" he asked suspiciously.

"No, no I don't think so." she said trying to convince herself of that.

"What's your name?"

Mulan felt a huge lump in her throat which didn't allow her to answer.

"I've just asked you a question." Captain Shang continued with a stern voice.

"Uh, I've got a name. Ha! And it's a boy's name, too." she started to say.

She knew she was saying only nonsense but she was so nervous she couldn't even remember what to say. She started to bable things to fullfy to silence but aparently it wasn't working.

She then heard through the headphones Mushu's voice screaming Ping.

"Ping! Just say Ping!" she heard.

She was about to say the name but she suddenly sneezed. Her high pitched sneeze made her teammates laugh discretely. They started to send her kisses and make fun of her, but Coach Li Shang was still looking at her sternly.

"What is your name?"

"Just say Ping!" Mushu said again through the headphones.

"It's Ping. " she finally managed to say.

"Ping?" Shang asked skeptical.

"Yes, my name is Ping." she repeated.

"What's your surname?"

"Fa."

"Fa? Like Fa Mushu?" Shang asked surprised.

"Who's that?" another student asked curiously.

"A student which was a senior last year. I had him during PE, and he was honestly terrible." he said almost laughing. He then remembered he had to be autoritary and continued. "I knew he had a sister, but I wasn't aware he had a brother."

"He just doesn't talk a lot about me." Mulan said nervously.

"I promise you that if you don't do as I tell you to, you're out of my team. You better not be as bad as your brother, or I can assure you that you won't make it till the end of the class." The man said harshly while the other students were still laughing.

"And I don't want to see you wearing headphones during my class!" he finally said.


Mulan was exhausted after the first practice. They had been doing all types of exercises, they had been running from one place to another and she already was starting to think about giving up.

She was in the locker room just packing her things, when she felt that someone was approaching from behind.

"Why don't you enter the dance team?" another member of the team said as the others started to laugh.

"Mmm I..." she started to say trying to defend herself.

"What? Do you want to say something?" he said getting closer to her.

The guy who was bothering her was not very tall and he had a black eye that he had surely obtained during a fight. It was very obvious that he had some experience fighting, and Mulan felt scarred as he approached even more. He was also followed by two other students and they were ready to punch her.

"Why don't we talk this?" she suggested.

"I don't think so."

"What's going on Chien Po?" Coach Chang said as he entered the room. He quickly deduced that something bad was happening and didn't hesitated.

"Nothing, I was just talking with my new friend Ping, didn't I Ping?" Chien Po said hitting her in the back.

"Yes." she said trying to hide the pain she felt with a smile.


Lunch had started and as always Rapunzel and Ariel were walking towards the cafeteria. They hadn't seen Merida during the whole day and they were starting to become a little worried.

"So when is the next swimming competition?"

"I don't know, but when it comes I'll spend a lot of time with Eric." Ariel said drawing a big smile on her face.

"You really like him." Rapunzel said with a warm smile.

"I know, it's just that, I don't know, I just can't find anything wrong with him. He's always been so nice to me, and I would like him to think more of me as a normal girl and not his little sister." Ariel said placing some emphasis in the last part.

"Ariel, ask him to go out with you! Where in the 21 century!" Rapunzel said encouraging her friend.

"I think you're right, I'll tell him everything, and-" the redhead was saying until Merida interupted.

"I'm sorry, I was late because of my mother."

"Why?" Rapunzel asked worried.

She knew since a long time that Merida's relationship with her mother wasn't the best. She deduced that Merida's mother had discovered that she was a member of the archery club, but she was surprised by Merida's answer.

"I had a talk with my mother and I came out with the best idea ever." Merida said extremely exited.

"What is that idea about?" Ariel asked raising an eyebrow.

"I'll tell you in a second, but first let's find a table." The redhead continued as they entered to the cafeteria.

Every single table was occupied. They searched for a couple of minutes for a place to sit, but this time there was absolutely no place to sit.

"Why don't you ask your slave if we can sit with them?" Ariel asked Rapunzel after noticing that Flynn Rider and his friends were sitting at their usual table and that there were three other sits free.

"I don't know." the blonde girl said shyly.

"Come on Rapunzel." Merida said pushing her friend towards the senior's table.

"Hey Blondie! What are you doing here?" Flynn asked as he recognized Rapunzel.

His voice sounded a little forced and Rapunzel could tell that he wasn't very happy to see her. She knew he had all the reasons to be angry at her, after all she had hit him because of a simple kiss.

"Can I talk to you?"

"I'm a little occupied." Flynn said laughing along with his friends.

"Go with your girlfriend Eu- hm I mean Flynn." Phoebus said jokingly.

"She's not my girlfriend." Flynn said hitting his friend's neck. "Okay Blondie I'll give you a minute." he said.

They started to walk away from the table. Rapunzel gave a look at her back and saw Ariel and Merida encouraging her. She was still feeling very guilty because of what had happened during the homecomimng dance, and felt deep inside that it wasn't right to ask him to do something, but at the same time her friends were counting on her.

"Okay, what do you want?" he said.

"Can my friends and I sit with you?"

"What? No way." Flynn said harshly.

"You're my slave."

"Okay Blondie, I guess you don't know that slavery was abolished in-" Flynn started to say in an attempt to make a smart comment, but soon realized he didn't even know when it had happened. He felt a little bad because of not knowing such an important event in history and make a quick mind note. 'Study the civil war this friday'.

"Okay I don't remember but I know it was abolished." he continued.

"1863." she said.

"What did you say?" he asked confused.

"Well, it's actually more complicated than that, it started when Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation which declared slaves in Confederate-controlled areas to be freed. It's something very important, shouldn't you know that?" she asked jokingly.

"I don't want a history class, your minute is over. Bye." he said to make her leave for once and for all.

This girl had to be the stickiest person in the whole world.

"I'll tell the principal." she finally said.

"Okay Blondie, tell your friends to come." he said.

He remembered then that she had a great power over him, and that if she had been able to hit him, she was able to tell the prinicpal.

"Could you stop calling me that, I have a name!" Rapunzel said, annoyed because of being called Blondie all the time.

"Okay, Goldie." he said mischievously.

Rapunzel waved her two friends to come and sit.

"Whoa whoa whoa, what's this? Why are they sitting here?" Phoebus asked confused.

"They are friends of Goldie, so they're my friends." Flynn said rolling his arm around Rapunzel's shoulders.

He surely was annoyed of having to sit with this girl and her friends, but at least he could make himself look as a womanizer in front of his friends.

"What did you say your name was carrottop?" he asked to a girl with very curly red hair.

"Merida..." she said annoyed.

"So since when you both are friends? I saw you together at the dance, but Flynn never told us anything else." Hercules asked.

"After I made her crash on the first school day she begged me to spend time with her, and she discovered I was a tremendously nice person." he said giving a blink to Rapunzel.

She started to regret sittting with them, and just gave a fake smile.

"Mmm Actually." she said before being cutted by someone's scream.


Belle, Jane, Jasmine and Tiana were sitting eating what seemed to be real food.

Jasmine had been thinking about how Aladdin was always behaving with her, he was very nice with her, but after the homecoming dance, she was sure he was lying about something.

"He's hiding something to me." she said quietly.

They were eating in silence but when she said that all the eyes were on her.

"Do you think he's cheating on you?" Jane asked.

"No, no, I think it's something about him."

"I hate to say this, but, I told you so!" Tiana said remembering her friend what she had warned her about.

"I don't think it's something that terrible, it's just that I hate lies." Jasmine said giving a gasp of air.

"What are you going to do?" Belle asked.

"I don't know yet but I promise you this isn't staying like this."

Jasmine considered herself a strong person, but she also had feelings, and for her bad luck, she had fallen in love with Aladdin. After realizing that he was completely and without any doubt lying, she found herself scarred by the fact that maybe she had just fallen in love with his lies.

She decided that she had to think about her relationship by herself, and changed abruptely the subject.

"What happened with Adam, Belle?"

"Why did he leave so early?" Jane continued.

"I don't know. He's so, I don't know, odd..." Belle said.

Then she realized that she had just called him "odd" just like Gaston and pretty much everyone else besides her friends did as well. Maybe she was only judging him by his cover, just as everyone did with her, but at the same time she had never been rude with anyone, and he was always with her.

"I mean, he's not odd, he's just very different, so mysterious." she continued.

"If I was you, I would start asking him some questions." Tiana said firmly. She was acting just like a cop before interrogating someone.

"Do you think it is the best idea?" Jane asked doubtful about what her friend was saying.

"Totally, honey, the guy is living in your house, the least he could do is to tell who he really is." Tiana said to Belle as a mother would warn her daughter after moving with his fiancé.

"I guess I should, but I don't know if it's the best way to do it. I'm sure my father has to know something, I think I rather ask him than Adam, at least he won't yell at me." Belle said.

"But he started to be nice, am I right?" Jane asked.

"Not exactly, I mean, I just went to the dance with him because I had no choice, it was him or Gaston." the french girl said disgusted with the idea of sharing time with Gaton.

"Ugh..." the tree other girls said with repulsion.

"What about you Jane? I saw you dancing with that guy named Tarzan." Belle said continuing the conversation.

"Oh he's a friend, a good friend I rather say." Jane said giving a nervous giggle.

"He's pretty good looking." Jasmine said playfully.

She had noticed that this guy named Tarzan was pretty much all the time with Aladdin...

"Yes, I know and his eyes are so-" Jane said exited before realizing she was over talking. "Colorful..." she continued lowering her voice.

"Please don't tell me you like him too." Tiana said rolling her eyes.

She could not believe that all her friends were always talking about boys. But what surprised her the most was that actually all this persons they were talking about were having a negative impact in all of them.

"Oh, no Tiana, I don't, he's just a friend." Jane said trying to calm her friend.

"I'm just trying to protect all of you from the wrong persons! First this guy named Naveen arrives from this meditteranean country, starts to flirt with all the girls he sees and then starts to hang out with Lottie, and I know that he's going to hurt her eventually." Tiana said getting angrier with every word.

"Then I warned you Jasmine! I told you how Aladdin was, but you didn't hear me, and now you're telling us that he's hiding you something!

And, Belle, I told you Adam could be dangerous, and you haven't stopped talking about him since he arrived even if he's been extremely rude. It's about time you start having stockolm syndrome or something! And finally you Jane! I can't believe you're falling for that deliquent too!" she continued.

They were always talking about boys, really, all the time. She felt like all her friends' lives were just gravitating around these guys. She, on the other side had her mind in more important things such as school, as work, as future.

"Tiana, calm down, you don't have to worry so much, we all love you and we know that-" Belle said trying to calm Tiana until she was interrupted by a scream.


Esmeralda and Megara were sitting at a table in the cafeteria without paying attention to what was happening around them. None of them were eating since the food was very well-known as terrible. Esmeralda had been giving little quick looks to a guy who was sitting a couple of tables next to their's. After a moment she realized another guy sitting in the same table was looking at her, it was Hercules. She found herself really confused, why would he look at her? She then saw more clearly that he wasn't actually looking at her, but he was actually looking at Megara.

She turned again and gave a quick look to the table next to the one she was staring a couple of seconds ago. There was her friend Quasimodo sitting alone. She suddenly felt a little guilty for not having invited him to sit with them.

"Esmeralda?" Megara asked.

"Quasimodo is sitting alone..."

"Oh..." she said noticing the guy Esmeralda was talking about.

"Do you still have what Ades gave you?" Esmerada asked curiously.

She couldn't stop thinking about what had happened in Megara's house while everyone else was at the homecoming dance.

"Yes, but please! Esmeralda don't talk about this here." Megara said trying to avoid the subject.

She had been trying to avoid the subject because it reminded her of Ades.

She always prentended to not to care about him, but it really bothered her.

"Haven't your parents found out?" The raven-haired girl asked ignoring completely what Megara had told her just a few seconds ago.

She was very impressed by the fact that Megara was actually hiding drugs in her room. Esmeralda herself had even once smoked marijuana some time ago, but to hide it and sell it was something completely different. People in some countries was sentenced to dead for selling drugs, and fortunately it didn't happened in their country, but still, it was something dangerous and risky to do.

"No, I don't even think they would care, but if they find out, Ades is going to be the problem." Megara said trying to hide her concern.

"How much do you think Ades wins selling all that?" Esmeralda asked.

"I don't know, but it must be pretty much. After this I'll ask him for a payement back."

"Why do you want money?" she said surprised.

She never that Megara actually needed something particulary, but after all, why would she knew? They weren't exactly friends, just comrades.

"I never said I wanted money." Megara said giving a laugh.

"Then what do you mean?"

"I don't know, maybe some favors, and I definitely want him to stop bothering me all the time." she said.

She had really enough of being always bothered by Ades and Jim, and to be able to get rid off Ades for once and for all was definetely a step forward.

"Again?! What is your problem!?" a girl screamed.

It was a junior, and she was sittting just a couple of tables away. She was covered by some red sauce and her blonde hair was full of it.

Megara quickly turned to see what had happened and couldn't stop herself from bursting into laughing after seeing the girl and the boy screaming at themselves.

"What are you laughing at?" Esmeralda said surprised.

"Look over there, that guy has just thrown food to that girl. Hilarious." Megara said trying not to laugh.

"If I was you I wouldn't be laughing." Esmeralda said after noticing that in that table next to the girl and the boy who where arguing was sitting a senior called Gaston who was just picking up his tray which was full of food.

"Why?" Megara said.

"There's Gaston."


"What are you looking at?" Aurora said playfully to her friend Ella who had been staring at Princeton since lunch had started.

"What?" Ella said as she realized Aurora had just asked her a question.

"Yes, you've been looking to that guy since lunch has started." Aurora remarked.

"Oh, Princeton Charming, he's a friend of Harry!" Snow said cheerfully.

"I'm not looking at him, I am just watching what he's eating." Ella said avoiding the subject.

"Come on Ella, that's a lame excuse!" Aurora continued teasing her friend.

"First: I don't like him, Second: I don't have time for those things, and Third: it is obvious he likes Anastasia." Ella said, feeling a little sad after saying the last point.

"Why do you say that?" Snow asked feeling sorry for her friend.

"Well he invited her to the dance, and then I heard Anastasia talking about going out to the cinema with him, and-" the strawberry blonde girl said remembering the numerous phone calls Anastasia received from him.

"Wait, you told me just a few days ago you didn't like anyone." Snow said feeling a little hurt by the fact that Ella hadn't told her the truth.

"Snow, I didn't lie to you, I don't like him, I just think it's weird that Anastasia is interested in him..." Ella said trying to convince herself that what she was saying was true. Anastasia was a senior and quite popular, and it wasn't that much of a surprise that Princeton was interested in her, and deep inside Ella was actually starting to like him.

"I think you're just jealous." Aurora said giggling.

"Oh Aurora, please..." Ella said rolling her eyes.

"Okay, okay, let's change the subject. How is everything going with Harry, Snow?"

"I don't know, he has become a very good friend, but I really would like to be something else." Snow said as she felt how her cheeks were starting to blush.

The simple fact of thinking of him made her feel nervous again. She had met his friends, and his band, but he always presented her as a friend. Despite her nervousness when they were hanging she was always trying to flirt a little with him, but apparently he didn't understand.

"Why don't you tell him?" Ella asked.

"He's the man, he's got to do it!"

"Oh Snow..." Aurora said laughing.

"I know I can, but I want him to do it. Till now he hasn't showed any sign that he likes me, so I prefer him to do it." Snow said explaining herself.

"If you say so..." her two friends said in unision a little skeptical.

"Hey girls!" a deep voice said behind them.

"Mmm hi Gaston..." the tree girls said rolling their eyes.

"Why are you carrying those faces, I'm here!" he said as he sat next to Aurora.

"Why are you sitting here?" Ella said raising an eyebrow.

Gaston had to be the most annoying guy in the whole school. They all knew he was always bothering a sophomore named Belle, who apparently was also fed up of him.

"I just wanted to hear how awesome I am." he said with a cocky face.

"Why don't you leave us and sit with those cheerleaders, I'm sure they can do the job better than us." Aurora said pointing to table where 3 blonde cheerleaders were sitting.

"I agree." Snow said with a smile on her face.

"Hey, hey ladies, you don't have to beg me to stay." he said putting his arm around Aurora.

She just pulled his arm away and got up from the table to avoid him, but just as soon as she got up she crashed with a guy who was walking and threw his food on her unintentionally. She was about to apologize but when she lifted her eyes and recognized "Phillip", the same guy who had done the same thing to her a month ago, she instally got angry at him.

"Again?! What is your problem!?" she screamed to him.

Ella and Snow started to laugh heavily after seing her friend covered in sauce.

"Damn, you should watch where you walk!" he screamed back at her.

"Well, you should be more careful!" she responded with the same anger.

"Well, I think you should stop screaming! It's just food! And I have to say, you even look better with it." he said laughing at her.

After seing what had happened Gaston found the moment to be the best chance to start a mess.

"FOOD WAR!" he screamed as he threw a bunch of pasta to a table where some students were eating and studying.

Soon everyone in the cafeteria were throwing food. Miss. Kida didn't take long to appear in the cafeteria, but although her attempts to make the "War" stop no one listened to her, and she left running towards the principal's office.

Soon another teacher appeared at the door of the cafeteria but surprisingly didn't move, and didn't even try to stop it. It was Mr. Frollo.

"No!" someone screamed.

"My hair!" a cheerleader screamed from the other side of the cafeteria.

"Damn." a guy screamed as he received a bunch of what seemed to be meat on the face.


"Under the table, now!" Jasmine screamed.

"This is all Gaston's fault!" Belle said hiding under the table.

For her it was pretty obvious that the only person stupid enough to start the food fight was Gaston.

"At least the food is useful for something." Jane said laughing trying to get off all the spaghetti on her hair.

"Someone needs to stop this! This is insane!" Tiana screamed.

"I'm sure a teacher is soon going to stop this." Jasmine said trying to see between all the students the entrance of the cafeteria.

"I don't see anyone doing that! We have to stop this whole mess right now!" Belle said getting out from under the table, but as soon as she did she received the half of a bitten sandwich on her face.


During the whole moment, Gaston had been throwing food to anyone he could see, but he suddenly noticed a guy who was just hiding under a table and was trying to cover himself with a tray. Gaston didn't hesitate and decided it would be fun to scare that kid, and of course, make fun of him.

"Look at that creep!" he screamed drawing all the attention to himself as he was pointing to the guy hiding under the table.

"Let's shoot him!" he screamed as he threw a strange salad to the guy.

Soon a bunch of other students followed him, and suddenly everyone was starting to just throw food at the guy.


"I can't believe what they're doing to that guy." Megara said trying not to see what was happening.

He was almost begging all the other students to stop, but they all were laughing too hard to even hear what he was saying.

"That's Quasimodo!" Esmeralda realized quickly.

She then gave a look to the entrance and noticed Mr. Frollo who was just standing and almost seemed to be smiling. She was extremely confused, why wasn't he doing anything?! After staring at him some seconds she gave a look to the table which was next to Quasimodo's in hope to see the guy she had been looking at do something to stop Gaston, but for her bad luck, he was just staring at what was happening in amazement.

She started to walk towards Quasimodo trying to make her way between all the students who were making fun of him. She received numerous times food thrown at her, but she didn't care and continued her way.

"What are you doing!?" Megara screamed.


Flynn, Phoebus, Hercules, Merida, Rapunzel, and Ariel had been trying to avoid the food which was being thrown, but when everyone started to throw food to the guy who was sitting just the table next to their's they stared at the scene with repulsion.

"Phoebus..." Flynn said worrying about the kid everyone was making fun of.

"Man, this is horrible. We should help him!" Hercules said trying not to look at how the guy was just trying to hide from everyone

"We have to do something. I agree." Phoebus said staring with amazement at what was happening.

"What do we do?" Ariel said hearing all the laughs of the other students.

"Oh god, poor guy!" Rapunzel said hugging Flynn who was surprised by her doing that.

"Look there's a teacher! Why hasn't he stopped this?!" Merida screamed after noticing Mr. Frollo who was just standing without even moving a finger.

"Hey bastard, do you want some salad?!" Gaston screamed as he threw another bunch of food to the freshman who was still trying to make them stop.

He seemed to be scarred and confused by everything that was happening. Suddenly the freshman screamed, and everyone who was throwing food at him laughed even harder, while Phoebus trembled.

It was at that second that Phoebus decided to stop Gaston and finish with the whole mess for once, but suddenly the girl he had been thinking about, the raven-haired one with green eyes he was trying to forget since the beginning of the year appeared and stood in front of Quasimodo. As soon as she stepped in front of him, everyone who had been throwing him food stopped.

She got closer to Quasimodo and took a napkin from the table, that she then used to clean his face. She was about to say something to her friend but a voice interrupted her.

"Hey you, get away from the target." Gaston screamed.

"No! What is wrong with you? What is your fucking problem? Don't you see he already has enough problems. He doesn't need to deal with all of you. He's just a freshman!" she screamed back at him.

Everyone stopped laughing and just stared at her with amazement.

"Mr. Frollo, I can't believe you've been just standing there while everyone is mistreating this person! You've been watching this scene this whole time, and you haven't done anything!" she screamed to the teacher who was still standing at the cafeteria's entrance.

Soon everyone was staring at him. Even Gaston was surprised that Mr. Frollo hadn't said anything.

Suddenly Miss Kida enterred to the cafeteria in the company of the principal, Mr. Mouse, and now all the stundents were just standing speechless.

"What's happening here? Is this what you have learned during your years attending high school?! Do we learn here bullying and harassment?" the principal asked surprised by the lack of maturity that everyone had shown.

He realized that this "Food War" was not normal. He quickly noticed that Quasimodo Hulce, the student that he allowed to be in the teacher's room because of his condition, was covered of food in a corner, and that a girl was standing next to him. It was soon obvious that everyone had been throwing food at him.

"Nothing you have to worry about, Mr. Mouse, it'll be a pleasure to punish the person who started this personally." Mr. Frollo said with a smile.

As soon as he heard those words Gaston felt a lump in his throat. He had started all this, but he hadn't expected to be punished, and to be punished by Mr. Frollo was the very last thing any student attending Disney High School wanted.

"Who started this?" Mr. Mouse asked to all the students.

They all kept silent. Of course, Gaston wasn't brave enough to admit he had done it, and to be honest he didn't even feel any remorse.

"You!" Mr. Frollo said pointing to Esmeralda.

She quickly felt surprised by his accusation. She hadn't started all, in fact, she was the one who had stopped it.

Phoebus who was just standing just a table away from her and Quasimodo was also surprised by the accusation, but he didn't managed to say something in her defense. It would be too weird, he thought, but deep inside he felt like a coward.

"Are you sure Mr. Frollo? Esmeralda has never caused any troubles during my class..." Miss Kida said.

"I'm absolutely sure." he said.

"Now, everyone go to your classes! Esmeralda, go to Mr. Frollo's office and Quasimodo, go to the nursery and then please come to my office." Mr. Mouse said as everyone did what he commanded.


Esmeralda entered to Mr. Frollo's office and sit crossing her arms.

"I didn't do anything, I stopped it! You can't punish me!" she said in anger.

"Shut up. You'll have a detention every single friday during the next months." he said to her.

He took a piece of paper from his desk and started to write something.

"What's that?" Esmeralda asked worried.

"Mr. and Mrs. I am afraid your daughter Esmeralda has committed many faults to the school rules. During the lunch hour she started a food fight, she harassed violently a freshman, she made the use of words such as "fuck", and she finally insulted and screamed to a teacher." Do you want me to continue?" he said with a smile.

"But I didn't do it! You were there, you saw it!" she protested.

"Don't tell me how to do my work, now go to your class before I expell you."

As soon as she left the office, Mr. Frollo couldn't stop himself from laughing. He quickly realized that it was obviously her who had been meeting Quasimodo. He couldn't imagine that someone was actually being nice and kind genuinely towards his nephew. For him, it was obvious that she wanted something. He then remembered she was also the girl he had been staring at with some kind of, lust, the day of the auditions, and that coincidentally, Quasimodo was also there. It became very clear for him that Quasimodo was starting to have some feelings for her. Suddenly Frollo felt worried, he felt a chill running through his whole body. He realized he had actually punished a girl for nothing, and that it was about time someone would say something about it. But then he started to think about her, and soon he started to laugh even harder.
