The nine teens reached Dr Faciller's shop in no time and having Freddie with them coupled with the fact that Dr Faciller wasn't there meant they found the Evil Queens Grimoire with very little problems. So an hour later, since both Uma and Freddie got their own parents spell books to help, the nine VK's were heading back to the car. Mal was a little apprehensive with Gil being with them but Adam didn't seem to question who they were right now, which Mal, Evie, Jay and Carlos were grateful for.

Adam pulled the car out of the alley as soon as the teens were settled. With some direction from Mal, Adam got them to the broken bridge. To Uma, CJ, Harry, Freddie and Gil's surprise the car simply drove through the barrier and a golden bridge appeared. But before they could ask anything Mal turned around in her seat to face the other teens. "E, will you look for the potion please. We need to get the ingredients quickly and start brewing once were back." She said and the blunette nodded, opening the black book as she did so.

As Mal turned to face the front of the car again she noticed Adam looking at her out of the corner of his eye. "Auradon Prep first, then home?" He asked.

"Yeah." The purple haired teen responded. She hoped this would work because if Evie's potion failed they didn't have any other way to find Belle and Ben in the time they had left.

By the time they had gotten what they needed from Auradon Prep and drove back to Castle Beast it was dawn. The sight of the sun rising made Mal nervous. They had one more day to find Ben and Belle or who knows what they would find. If she didn't know that the entire Kingdom would suffer then she would consider handing her mother Fairy Godmother's wand, but that wasn't an option. Their only hope was Evie's potion.

The nine VK's and Adam gathered all the ingredients from the car and rushing into the castle. The faster they got started, the faster they would know if it worked. They entered the family room and began organizing the potion ingredients while Mal conjured a cauldron, seemingly out of thin air. What no one, except Adam, noticed was that as she handed the cauldron to Evie, lighting a purple fire underneath it so she could start brewing, she cast a silent truth spell on the five new VK's. She had no know before they found Ben and Belle if they were really there to help or not.

"So you five really meant what you said on the Isle? You really want to help us and be good?" Mal asked, getting all five of their attentions.

Nodding they all stated "Yes." If they were aware of the truth spell they were hiding their true feelings well, but she knew whether they wanted to or not because of the spell they had to admit their true intentions.

The purplette couldn't help but smile as she realized they had been truthful with everything they said. As fairy Godmother and the AK's entered the family room, probably having heard them talking or Fairy Godmother having sensed her magic, she turned to Gil. "Didn't you have something you wanted to say to Adam?" She asked the black haired teen but before he could reply the TV flickered to life.

As the image cleared they were met with the sight of Belle and Ben once more. They looked the same as the last time they saw them but this time they were only bound, they weren't gagged. Mal shared a concerned look with Adam as the rest of the group, Evie who had been about to start brewing the potions included, turned to watch the TV. What the group didn't expect was for Maleficent to walk out onto the screen, standing between Belle and Ben. "What the hell?" Mal whispered to herself, not knowing what was about to happen but knowing it wasn't going to be good.

"It seems that my daughter and her friends have no intention of turning over the wand as they had been instructed." The evil fairy said to the camera filming her. "As they have given no indication of turning the wand over they no longer have 24 hours left. You have two hours to get me the wand Mal, or this boy that you like so much..." She said grabbing Ben's hair and pulling his head backwards. "will get a taste of what you had on the Isle." She stated.

They watched as Belle teared up at the way Maleficent was holding Ben's hair. "Please, let Ben go." She pleaded with the Mistress of all Evil and Mal could tell be the grin forming on her face what was coming next. Maleficent released Ben's hair and quickly turned, slapping Belle across the face. The purplette couldn't help but flinch as Adam growled and everyone else gasped. Mal remembers all to well how hard those slaps could be.

A red hand print instantly started forming on the former Queen's face and Mal felt her anger growing towards the evil fairy. How dare she lay a hand on Belle!? "Two hours, Mal." Maleficent stated before the screen went black once more.

"Shit!" Mal exclaimed, angrily. "E, how long will the potion take to brew?" She asked, turning to face the blunette as she did so. She didn't miss the wide eyes and shocked yet concerned expression on her sister's face. Mal also noticed the fact that she hadn't answered her question. "How long, Evie!?" Mal snapped. Her anger getting the better of her right now but she didn't care. She had to find them and fast, she couldn't bare the thought of them receiving the same treatment she got on the Isle. She would never forgive herself.

Slowly Evie turned her head to look at the purple haired teen. "I'm so sorry Mal." She said and Mal raised her eyebrow in response. She couldn't verbally respond. "The potion takes two hours." The blunette said. She watched Mal's face turn a mixture of disbelief, upset and anger before turning around and starting to brew the potion they needed. Evie couldn't bare to look at her sister's face any longer. The potion took two hours and they only had two hours left. This was not good at all.
