"MALIFICENT! TIME TO GET UP DEAR!" Mal's mother yelled upstairs to her daughter's bedroom. Mal lazily got up and stretched. She didn't realize it till she was halfway out of her room, that today, was Mal's 13th birthday, She slumped downstairs, and sat at the table across from her mother.

"So dear, what would you like to do today?" Her mother asked.

"I want to be away from you." Mal said, glaring at her mother. She despised her. For starters, she acted like she was the worlds greatest mother, and secondly, she refused to tell Mal anything about her father.

"That is enough young lady!" Her mother snapped.

"Whatever! I hate you!' Mal yelled, running out of the cabin before her mother could say anything to her. Mal started running through the giant woods that blocked her cabin from the world, and finally stopped at the lake in the middle of the woods. She slammed down, and started crying into her knees.

"Excuse me, but why are you crying?" A voice asked. Mal turned around to see her friend from school, Rebecca.

"Oh, uh nothing." Mal lied, trying to dry her tears. Rebecca straightened her headband that kept her long blonde hair in place, and sat next to Mal.

"What's really wrong?" Rebecca asked again.

"Well you know those fairytales in we read about in class about satyrs rescuing kids and taking them away?" Mal asked. Rebecca nodded. "Well, I wish my satyr would come now." Mal said, crying into her knees.

"Shhh, life will get better. I promise." Rebecca said, patting Mal on the back. "Uh, I hate to do this, but uh, I kind of have to go. My mom will be worried sick. See you at school!" And with that, Rebecca left, and Mal picked up a large rock out of the lake. She turned, and threw it at the large tree next to the lake, Instantly, a branch broke and fell to the ground. Mal couldn't explain it, but it felt like the tree was in pain.

"I'm sorry, here let me help you." Mal said, picking up the branch. Then there was a loud spark, and now in Mal's hands, was a long black staff. It had a red crystal in the middle, and green flames surrounded it.

"Nice staff." Another voice said. Mal turned around to see a tall, beautiful man standing there. He had curly black hair, and his facial features were wonderful.

"Uh thanks." Mal said. She looked down, and gasped. The man, had goat legs! "You...are a satyr?" Mal asked, shocked. The man nodded.

"Yep, the names Joshua. Don't find me weird, but I happen to overhear you and you're friend talking." Mal blushed a little, and looked down. "Well, you asked for a satyr, and here I am!" Before Mal could say anything, there was a loud scream coming from Mal's cabin. Instantly, they both took off towards the cabin.

Mal used her staff to push open the door, and Joshua came in next to her.

"Don't scare me like that! Tell me when you are going to teleport into my kitchen!" Mal's mother yelled, picking up a broken glass.

"Sorry, will do." A deep voice said. Mal looked over to see a huge man sitting at the table. He had a robe on, and a curly black beard covered his chin.

"So what do you want Zeus?" Her mother asked, now taking a seat next to the giant man.

"We need to discuss something. It's about Mal." Zeus said. Mal quickly grabbed Joshua, and pulled him next to her so they could eavesdrop.

"What about her?" Her mother said, crossing her arms.

"Well.." Zeus stopped and looked around the room, making sure no one could hear him. "The spirits tell of a prophecy about a child of Hades." Mal's mother shivered at the sound of that name.

"And?" Her mother asked.

"Well, it tells of a dragon witch overthrowing me, Zeus the God of Lightning. It's very disturbing, but.." Zeus looked down.

"You think my daughter is that child of Hades." Her mother said, tearing up.

"I'm very sorry ma'mm, but Mal is the last child of Hades up to date, and... well we need to deal with this prophecy now.."

"What are you saying?" Her mother demanded, now crying.

"I think you know what needs to be done.." Zeus said, looking down once more.

"No..NO!" Her mother sobbed now. Mal just stood there. Was Zeus really going to kill her? He couldn't. Finally, Mal walked into the kitchen.

"What are you doing? You're going to get yourself killed!" Joshua whispered, following her.

"I don't care." Mal said, stepping into the kitchen.

Once inside, Zeus looked over and glared at her. "You!" He said, a giant lightning bolt now in his hand. "You should have never have been born! I knew my stupid brother Hades wouldn't keep his pact!" Zeus yelled.

"The pact..you mean the pact you big three gods made to not have children?" Mal said, remembering the stories she read in class. Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades were the three mighty god brothers, and they each made a pact to never have any children, for they were unpredictable and too powerful. "Wait a minute, didn't YOU break that pact?' Mal said, glaring at Zeus.

"Yes but none of MY children are capable of ending the world!" Zeus yelled back. Mal looked over at her mother, who wouldn't even look at her. She just had her face in her hands, and was sobbing. "This is enough talking! You young lady will learn respect. Say hi to you're father for me in the Underworld!" Zeus quickly raised his lightning bolt, and aimed it directly towards Mal. It was like someone whispered what to do in Mal's ear. Instantly, Mal used a spell to raise Joshua.

"DO ANYTHING TO ME AND I'LL KILL HIM!" Mal yelled. Zeus huffed, and de summoned the lightning bolt, and Mal put Joshua down.

"I won't kill you, but I will not allow you to leave this house." Zeus said. Then there was a loud spark, and there was now a giant electric barrier surrounding the small cabin."I think my work here is done, come Joshua, let us return to Olympus."

Joshua looked down at Mal. Her curly black hair made her green eyes pop from her skull. She was so pretty.

"Ahem, Joshua." Zeus said, breaking Joshua from his trance.

"Oh yea, coming." Joshua finally answered. He walked over to Zeus, and with a loud spark, they were gone. Mal fell to the ground and started crying.

"Why didn't you tell me about dad?!" Mal yelled at her mom. She just shook her head and started shoving food and supplies into a bag.

"I can't do this Mal. I can't, I can't." Her mother kept saying.

"Calm down please!" Mal yelled again.

"NO! ZEUS SAID YOU COULDN'T LEAVE, BUT I CAN!" And with that, her mother grabbed the bag of supplies and ran through the front door.

"MOM NO!" Mal yelled, running after her mom. She ran out the door, but the barrier shot Mal straight back. Alone, Mal ran to her room and started crying. After a while, there was a loud 'thump'. Mal sat up and looked over at her desk. Sitting there, was a giant book, and a note. Mal walked over to it, and started reading:

"Dear Maleficent,

I don't do this much to children i haven't claimed, so feel special. Anyways, sorry about the whole Zeus thing, but don't be discouraged kid. In this book is a whole bunch of spells. One of them will tell you a vision of how to defeat Zeus, and another will tell you how to disable his barrier. I want you to study these spells, and once you have learned them all by heart, begin the prophecy. I think you'll do pretty good. Alright, see ya kid.

Love,

Hades."

Mal wiped her tears, and picked up her staff. Then, she started studying the book. She had a lot of studying to do, for she was going to get back at Zeus for what he had done to her.

Ten years later, Mal practically memorized that book, and knew every spell. She reread her fathers note, and did the spell titled "Vision." Instantly, a giant bubble appeared in front of her. It showed a short skinny girl with long blonde hair sitting at a maple tree. At the bottom of the bubble, showed an address. Mal summoned a pen and pencil and began writing down the numbers. then, the image in the bubble shifted, and a girl in an ugly swimsuit appeared. Once again, an address appeared at the bottom. She wrote it down, and then the image shifted once more. Now it should a cute boy sitting at a table in a giant white house. An old lady sat across from him, holding a violin. She wrote down the address once more, and the image shifted one last time to a girl with curly light brown hair cleaning a small apartment. In the background was a man holding a beer can. Mal wrote the final address down, and the bubble now had bright red words in it.

"Whoever is reading this, my time has come. I ask of you to gather three demigods and bring them to Tartarus, for they will help me escape my eternal prison Zeus has put me in. I thank you, child of Hades."

And with that, the bubble popped. Mal took in all of this, and looked down at the paper.' The first girl must be most important, so I will get her first.' Mal finally decided. She put the note in her pocket, grabbed her staff, and walked downstairs. She walked in front of the barrier, and used a spell to disable it, then she stepped outside.

The address for the first girl was quite far, so she decided she would use a dragon spell she really liked. And with that, she was now a giant dragon. She started flying, but instantly failed. She landed in the lake, and deformed. 'Flying is hard, I think I'll just use a teleport spell.' Mal thought. She casted the spell, and was now in a dark space.

"STATE YOU'RE NAME AND WHERE YOU WOULD LIKE TO TRAVEL." A voice said.

"Maleficent Crell, and.." Mal looked at the address. "567 NORTH SEA DRIVE!" She yelled. Instantly, color surrounded Mal, and she was now standing in front of a maple tree. There was a loud "Bye!' And Mal heard foot steps running over to her. She quickly hid in a bush and looked to where the footsteps were coming from. There, through the woods, was a giant house. And standing in the doorway, was a tall skinny women with long blonde hair with a hair band keeping it in place. She was waving goodbye to the girl in the bubble. Mal recognized her, for it was her friend Rebecca. Once the girl from the bubble passed Mal hiding in the bush, Mal walked up to Rebecca's house.

Once Mal was inside, Rebecca turned around. "MAL! I almost didn't recognize you!" Rebecca said, hugging her. Mal pushed her off and glared at her. "What?" Rebecca asked.

"Why didn't you visit me?" Mal asked.

"Huh?"

"I was trapped in that house for ten years all alone, and you never visited me once. Why?" Mal asked, starting to cry.

"Mal, please. My parents..when I got home from our talk at the lake.." Rebecca looked down, wiping a tear. "Someone broke into our house while I was away, and..and they..." Rebecca was now sobbing.

"They killed them?" Mal asked. Rebecca nodded and looked up.

"I had to live with my grandma for a while. Then she died, and now I live in this house right here. Please don't be mad that I didn't visit you!" Rebecca pleaded.

"You aren't a very good friend. I don't forgive you. You wronged me, now you will be punished." Mal finally said. Rebecca turned extremely pale.

"NO! PLEASE MAL! REILLY NEEDS ME! I'M ALL SHE HAS-" Rebecca didn't get to finish, because Mal used a spell, and Rebecca was now ashes on the ground.

"I'm sorry." Mal said. Then she remembered Reilly, the girl from the bubble that Rebecca was talking about. Mal quickly summoned a pen and paper and wrote a fake note saying Rebecca was at camp half blood. After picking up Rebecca's remains, there was a loud cry "MOM!' And a knock at the door. Mal quickly used the teleport spell and went to the lake in the woods by her cabin.

"I'm so sorry Rebecca. Rest in peace." And with that, Mal through Rebecca's ashes in the lake, and went home. She curled up on her bed for one last time and fell asleep.

In the morning, Mal teleported to the maple tree again. Soon, there was footsteps once more, and Mal could sense someone watching her from a far.

"I know you are there, come out." Mal said, smiling.
