Chapter 10: Troubled
Donnie was walking down the halls still stinging a bit from Jack Skellington's words, they kept going around in his head."Anybody related to Oogie is nothing but trouble and I can smell it!", "letting this cold blooded monster into this school what kind of establishment are you running here!"," you didn't think I'd recognize you after treating my friends so shamefully!"
Then, Eliza stopped him half way to his dorm." Look don't listen to, what they said out there. Your better then that..."he cut her off."Look At Me!, Their right. You deserve better, get away while you still have a chance!"
"But..."
Donnie's eyes flashed red as he shouted." Just go!"
He then softened." I take you to the coronation but, after that nothing else you have no future with me. I'm a monster."
She left him alone to his thoughts. Donnie then knocked on Mal's door."hey, Mal you think you can make me a cure for Eliza. I want to do something humane for once."
"Your in luck,"she said with a sigh." I was about to do the same thing. I guess it just seems less cruel."
Then Donnie went to his room and flopped on his bed. He could here Mal singing something in the other room, it was a song called,
"If Only." She actually had a pretty good voice.
(Donnie's original song called." Scary or Not?" Plays)
"Look at me, when will I find who I really am. Used to when I thought at night only thing was ghosts, and Ghouls, though I was really scared."
He sang softly." But then I ask myself who am I really and am I Scary or...not."he continued," monster, scoundrel I don't by that. When will I find me and found out if I should be scary or not?," he walked to the mirror and saw his reflection." Horrors and fears used to be who I was but when I find that there is more, should I be scary or not, well should I?" He asked his reflection.
"I wonder if there is more then just howling in the night,"Donnie sang." Who should I become?"
A single tear ran down his cheek and sang." Should... ..scary or not?"
The end of his song he asks himself."should I?"
(Music Ends)
He then went to bed knowing the next day was coronation day and the day his dad would want to make his appearance.
Mal came to him knocking on the door, Donnie opened it. It looked as if Mal had been crying too she handed him the cookie to break the charm he gave Eliza earlier."thanks, Mal."
"You know Mal,"Donnie began to ask."I've been thinking could there possibly be hope for us to change?"
"To be honest,"she said then sighed." I've been asking myself the same question. I guess we'll find out tomorrow, right, it's a big day you know."
Mal left and Donnie now had thoughts racing in his head."Maybe...happy isn't such a bad thing after all."
(Hope you liked Donnie's song I'm not very good at coming up with lyrics but, I had to because I wanted Donnie to have at least one solo song Descendants is a musical after all. And I do plan on expanding this story but would you guys rather me just add onto this story or do you want me to make separate and make it a sequel? Oh and question of the day if Donnie was an actual character in the movie is who would play him and Oogie? Sorry if this chapter was a little short I have started college classes but, next chapter will be longer. This one was mainly just meant for Donnie's original song and what is going through his head.)
