Hi guys! This is chapter 9 of "Little Girls". I thank all of you for reading my stories and leaving such kind reviews. This chapter will reveal Evie's plan and how it goes down.
Gokartgirl: I too feel bad for Doug. Right now, he and Evie have basically the same relationship that Evie has with Carlos, who saved her from Audrey's wrath. I took your suggestion for this chapter, so I hope you enjoy.
Chapter 9: The Troublemaking Trio
Evie's POV:
I'm glad to be freed of Mal's curse. Actually, that's an understatement. I'm thrilled! I don't have a major plan yet, but we are first going to get Mal back with something small.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Audrey asked, looking at the silver outfits I was making.
"Sewing. Since we don't have an elaborate plan yet, I decided to work on something simple. These are going to be knight costumes, and we are going to hide in Mal's room, then attack her when she least expects it," I explained to the girls.
"Doesn't Mal share a room with you?" Lonnie asked, confused.
"Yes and no," I replied. "She technically lives in this room, but she stays with Ben, since him and Doug are keeping us separate."
"Oh. So, what's the purpose of this again?" Audrey asked.
"We don't want Mal to think that she weakened us. This is just a small plan to make her realize that we are strong, even without magic," I informed.
"Awesome. Can we use our new martial arts skills?" Lonnie asked excitedly.
"You know it. We can also use bow staffs if you want, well at least you can. I don't know how to use one, and I don't think Audrey does either," I told Lonnie. Audrey nodded her head, signaling that she didn't know how to use a bow staff either.
"Alright. Try these on," I instructed my two friends, tossing them the outfits. They turned and walked into the bathroom. When they came out, I was very impressed with my work. I handed them two chest plates to wear over it. They weren't heavy or protective, just a fun design.
"Evie, these are amazing!" Audrey exclaimed. "How did you learn how to sew like this?"
"My mother taught me," I replied.
Audrey's POV:
"My mother taught me," Evie responded. Now was my chance to ask the question that was never answered earlier.
"Who is your mother?" I asked her. I immediately regretted it when I saw her expression change from her peppy, excited self, to discomfort and nervousness.
"My m-mother is-" she began.
"You know what?" I cut in. "Never mind."
"O-okay," she responded, her face showing more of the light that I knew and loved.
Lonnie's POV:
I stood there, confused. Who Evie's mother is didn't really matter to me, but I was concerned as to why she was so uncomfortable whenever Audrey mentioned her? And why does Audrey care who her mother is? Maybe she doesn't have one, I thought sadly.
"Okay, so do you guys want to go into Mal- er Ben's room?" Evie suggested.
"You bet, but how do we get past Carlos?" I asked.
"Relax. He's listening to music with those giant things on his ears. We should be able to go without interrogation," Evie explained.
We quickly, yet quietly snuck out the door and made our way to Ben's room. We saw Jay in the hallway. Shoot, I thought. We are so dead.
Evie's POV:
Jay was in the hallway. "What are you three doing in the halls by yourselves?" he asked us, looking me in the eye.
"We were, umm," I started. I didn't know what to say. "We were looking for you," I lied, but he seemed to buy it.
"Where's Carlos?" he asked.
"He sent us to come find you. We wanted to apologize to Mal, so we asked him where Ben's room was. He told us he didn't know and said that you knew," I told him with a sweet expression on my face.
Jay's POV:
Carlos doesn't know where Ben's room is? Something is up, but I guided the five year old trio to Ben's dorm room, then went to find Carlos. I feel like I'm going to regret trusting the Evil Queen's kid, a warrior-in-training, and a princess who just so happens to be my girlfriend turned five.
Evie's POV:
"How did you know what to say?" Audrey asked, surprised.
"Please, I've lied to a ton of people before," I answered. I saw that she was shocked and I think she was starting to lose trust in me. "I've never lied to you guys," I said, "I only lie in situations like this, when my plans would be at risk." It was true, I would always get caught causing mischief back home, so I was used to lying on the spot.
We finally arrived at Ben's dorm, where Mal was sleeping on a bed, alone in the room. I guessed that Ben went to go get something to eat or something. "Psst, girls," I whispered, "come, we can hide in this closet."
When we finally fit ourselves inside, we waited for just the right moment. Until then, we waited in silence.
Meanwhile…..
Jay's POV:
I opened the door to Evie and Mal's room. Well, now it's really only Evie's, since we are trying to keep her and Mal away from each other as long as we can. "Carlos!" I called, loud enough for him to hear through his headphones.
"Oh, hey Jay," he answered.
I decided to cut right to the chase. "Why did you lie to Evie and the girls?" I asked.
"What do you mean?" he asked, clearly confused.
"Evie and per posse found me in the hallway, asking where Ben's dorm was. She said that you told her that you didn't know where the dorm room was, so you sent them to find me," I explained.
"I haven't spoken to Evie since you left the room earlier," he informed. "Why would they be looking for Ben's room?" he added.
"She said something about apologizing to- Oh my goblins! They're going to do something to Mal!" I yelled.
"WHAT? No way," Carlos said, shocked at what just came out of my mouth.
"A villain, Evie, apologizing to an enemy, Mal? No way. Evie would never back down like that, especially not when she has her own tiny army," I explained. "She was always stubborn on the Island and would never let anyone beat her at anything."
Carlos was about to respond, when we heard a shriek, a little girl's shriek, in the distance.
"MAL!" we cried in unison.
Carlos's POV:
Jay and I burst through the door, and ran as fast as lighting to Ben's dorm room. When we entered, we saw Lonnie with a- plastic bow staff?- attacking a purple haired girl, who we saw was Mal. I rushed over to them, only to be stopped by bullets flying at me.
"Girls! Stop this right now!" Jay hollered with rage. They didn't listen, of course.
"No way!" a voice declared. I turned to see the blue haired princess who was my best friend. "We aren't stopping until this evil witch learns her lesson!" she then turned around and starting firing her foam bullets at Mal.
Jay's POV:
While Carlos was handling Evie, I snuck behind Audrey and pulled Lonnie off of my friend. She struggled to free herself from my grasp, but I held her up.
"What is going on in here?!" I turned to see Chad standing in the doorway.
"Chad! You have to help us! Can you take Lonnie for me and bring her into her own dorm or somewhere that isn't here?" I asked, walking over to him.
"S-sure I guess," he replied nervously. I handed off his mini girlfriend, and then went over to mine.
"Audrey, stop this right now," I commanded abruptly. What did she do? Kick me in my shins. I winced in pain, then bolted for the door, where she was headed. Since I was eleven years older, I made it there first. I scooped her up, then brought her to Fairy Godmother's office. Carlos followed with Evie.
I pulled out my cell phone and texted Chad to bring Lonnie and meet us at the headmistress's office.
Fairy Godmother's POV:
I was shocked to see Jay, Carlos, and Chad come to my office with Audrey, Evie, and Lonnie. "Why hello," I greeted. "What brings you here?"
"These three went into Ben's dorm and attacked Mal with toy guns and a bow staff," Jay explained. "We have come to ask if you had any ideas on how to reverse this spell, since this whole 'they have to get along' thing isn't working."
"Well," I started, "That is the only way to bring them back to their normal age. But, if you can get these three to trust each other as close friends and not just an army, you can alter their ages and they'll be older, like maybe nine or ten," I concluded.
"But what about Mal and Jane? If it works with these three, then do we have to get Mal and Jane to get along in order for them to age up?" Carlos asked, concerned.
"I'm afraid so. If you can get these three plus Jane to get along, then they'll be maybe twelve, but Mal will remain five," I replied sadly. "But, if you age these three and even Jane, it might make your job easier to completely reverse the spell, since they might be willing to be mature and not attack Mal with foam bullets and plastic bow staffs."
"Okay, thank you," Chad said. "I hope this works soon," and with that, the three left with the children.
Unknown POV:
I love watching these kids fight each other, I thought, amused with my spell. It's not going to be easy to reverse this spell, especially since I turned both Mal and Evie. They're not going to warm up to each other anytime soon.
That's all for 2015! I will probably update tomorrow, so leave reviews and ideas. Who do you think that POV was (It's the person that turned them all into children. I know who it is going to be already, so I want to know- who do you think it is?)
I wanted to include Chad in this story without him being such a bully, so I know he may be a bit OOC, but I like him this way.
What did you guys think of Evie lying on the spot? She may be a princess, but she's pure evil.
Leave ideas below.
Have a wickedly cool New Year, and you can read my New Year's two-shot "Auradonian New Year's" if you want.
