Hi, here is Chapter 9. Please enjoy.
The dress came a week after it was ordered. It was white, of course, and was sparkly. Mal absolutely HATED sparkles. The dress was also frilly, and had a beaded belt around the waist. What made Mal want to burn her dress even more was the fact that the dress was strapless. A strapless, sparkly, frilly, beaded, white wedding dress. Mal made a face. How could her mother force her to get married, when she wasn't asked of her opinion? Oh wait, she was. But her response was laughter. Mal thought that Anthony was joking. That's the only reason she laughed. But now she was being forced to marry the boy she didn't love.
Frustrated with her thoughts, Mal decided to walk around the isle. "Who is the wisest person on the isle that can most likely help me?" she thought. The idea hit her like a bullet.
She sprinted all the way to Dragon Hall, and right to Yen Sid's classroom. But Mal heard a familiar voice talking to her teacher, and so she stuck only her head into the classroom doorway.
"I was wondering if you could officiate mine and Mal's wedding." Anthony Tremaine asked. "But I'm not a priest." Yen Sid replied. "I know, but you're the only one close enough to one." he said. "True, true. Fine, I'll officiate the wedding. Now get out of my classroom. I've had enough of you." the teacher said, waving Anthony out the door.
Mal gasped as Anthony came through the door. "Why hello, my bride-to-be. How are you doing? Are you as excited as I am?" he said, smiling. "Uh, yeah, sure. I'm great. Just. Great. How about you?" Mal asked. "I'm great. But I have to go, so bye." he said. "You're the one that started a conversation in the first place and now you're leaving. Okay, sounds good. Bye." Mal muttered. Anthony rolled his eyes and walked away.
Mal took a breath and walked into Yen Sid's classroom. "How are you holding up, Mal? I understand that you don't want to be married to the tremaine boy, am I right?" he asked. "Yes. Exactly. Now, do you have something that can prevent or delay the marriage?" Mal asked. "Hmm, well there's this potion that's right her that you can drink that will put you to sleep in a sleep like death. I'll see if I can contact the king, and then he'll come to kiss you, cause it can only be really cured by true love's kiss. Then you two will run off back to Auradon, happily ever after, bada boom bada bing. By then the wedding will surely have been cancelled. See, great plan. What do you say?" Yen Sid asked. "Yes. I'll take it." Mal said. She snatched the potion from his hands and ran all the way to her bedroom in Maleficent Manor.
Soon came their wedding day, and Mal put on her wedding dress. She then pulled out the potion and drank it, collapsing to the floor into a deathly sleep.
A few minutes later after Mal collapsed, there was thundering steps and then Maleficent screaming, "Nooooooooooo! What has she done? She ruined my most evil plan ever!" Maleficent checked Mal's pulse. "She's...she's...DEAD?!" Maleficent exclaimed. More thundering up steps. "What? Mal's DEAD?" Anthony shouted. "Relax, she's only in a sleep like death. She just needs true love's kiss. She was in so much torment, that she didn't want to get married. Maleficent, you shouldn't have forced a wedding on her." Yen Sid explained. Maleficent scowled. "You're right. Anthony, go kiss Mal so she wakes up." she ordered. "I'm not her true love." Anthony scoffed. "Do. It. Now. We'll never find out unless we try, will we?" she asked. "Fine." he sighed. He leaned down and kissed Mal. But nothing happened. "See, told you." Anthony replied. "Then who do we need to get in order to wake her up, since you know everything?" Maleficent asked. "King Ben." Anthony said. "That's impossible." Maleficent said. "Unless...we could get Gil. He could get his girlfriend Audrey. And then she could get Ben." Anthony said. "Still impossible. How is Gil going to get Audrey?" Maleficent asked. Anthony thought for a moment. "I know! She comes every other day to check up on Gil. Tomorrow is one of those days! I could tell Gil to tell Audrey to get Ben, and so Ben can go and kiss Mal when they arrive, and everything will be great again!" Anthony said. "Perfect." Maleficent said, waiting patiently. "What?" Anthony snapped. "Go on, put your plan into motion." Maleficent said, waving him away. Anthony sighed. "It's not that easy. I have to wait till Gil is at Harry's, and that's hardly ever." Maleficent glared. "Just hunt him down, tell him the news." she said. Anthony started to walk down the stairs, but then stopped. "Go on, go on." Maleficent waved. Anthony sighed, running down the stairs all the way to where Gil always was.
"Gil, my friend. What's up?" Anthony asked once he found Gil. "I'm waiting for Audrey to come back." Gil said, sighing. Anthony took in a deep breath. "Gil, I need to tell you something. And it's not a good thing. You have to tell Audrey this." he said. "What?" Gil asked. Anthony took in another deep breath. "Mal's in a sleep like death." he said. "Mal's...dead?" Gil asked. "No, she's in a heavy sleep, which can only be awakened by true love's kiss. Now when you see Audrey, tell her to go get Ben so that she can be awakened." Anthony explained. Just then a new voice gasped. Anthony spun around, seeing that it was Audrey. "Mal's...asleep? Like how my mother was asleep?" Audrey asked. "Yes. You need to get Ben so that she can be awakened, like now." Anthony said. Audrey frowned. "Well, then we have one little problem. Ben's unconscious. He blacked out when I told him that you and Mal were getting married, and he still hasn't awakened." she said. Anthony's jaw dropped. "I'm sorry, I should have called off the wedding. But it seems as though we've lost. Mal is forever asleep, and so is Ben." he said.
Just then Audrey's phone rang. "Hello?" she asked. "Audrey, I'm awake! I've just woken up! But where are you?" Ben said. "Ben! I'm so glad you're okay! I'm on the isle, because you see, Mal's in a sleep like death right now that can only be broken by true love's kiss. That's you!" she said. "There's no way I'd be able to get over there in time." Ben replied. "I'll come back and get you. Then we can wake Mal and you two can live happily ever after!" she squealed. "Okay, I'll go get ready," Ben said. "See you soon, bye." "Bye." Audrey said, hanging up.
"Aah!" Audrey squealed. "What?" Anthony asked. "Everything is according to plan! Listen, I have to go." Audrey said. "No, I'm not leaving you. Not again." Gil said in a gruff voice. "Gil, it'll only be for awhile." Audrey said. "No, it's either you're not leaving or I'm coming with you." Gil growled. "Okay." Audrey sighed. She took Gil's hand and they both walked away to Auradon.
