Chapter Fifteen: Welcome to Auradon
When sunday morning came Vanessa got up, got dressed and grabbed her stuff. She was starting to think that she shouldn't leave Harry alone. After a few seconds she shook it off as she knew that Ben needed her too. With the VK's coming she knew a lot of people, including their parents aren't going to be happy about it. So after saying goodbye to her friends and Harry she went into the fireplace and used the floo-powder to send her to Auradon.
"Ben! I'm here." She called out.
Coming in the room Ben smiled and gave her a big hug.
"Welcome back." He smiled
"I was only gone for a few days, Ben." Vanessa smiled
"Yes, how...sad that was."
Vanessa smiled faded to a frown when she heard that voice. She looked to the door and saw Audrey looking at them with a fake smile.
"Audrey, I see you were able to get the food smell out." Vanessa said with a fake smile.
Ben had to hold in a laugh while Audrey tried to keep her fake smile from turning into a scowl. Then he cleared his throat he could break the tension between the two.
"Let's get going shall we." He said
He held out his arm to Audrey, who quickly took it and his other Vanessa.
"Dude, guard my luggage. And make sure Nigel doesn't get out." Vanessa said when she took Ben's arm.
Dude barked at the order and sat down. He looked at her trunk where he knew the Niffler was at.
The three of them made it outside where Fairy Godmother and the marching band was. Vanessa couldn't help but shook her. This was a little too much.
"Couldn't have change out your uniform, Vanessa. At least try to look normal." Audrey said
"Oh Audrey...bite me, muggle." Vanessa said with a smile as she her gritted teeth.
"Ladies." Fairy Godmother said to calm them down. "Here they come."
When the school limo came the band started to play. Once it stopped two familiar boys came rolling out of the limo as they wrestling over a towel that in the limo. Then Vanessa saw Mal and Evie coming out along with another boy that she wasn't familiar with. But his face looked a little like Lucas.
"Who's the other boy with short dark hair?" She whispered to Ben.
"Turns out the Maleficent had a son too. I didn't want to separate the siblings. I believe his name is Hunter." Ben said
"Guys, guys, guys." Mal said "We have an audience."
Jay and Carlos both stood up when they saw everyone looking at them.
"Just cleaning up." Jay said
When Mal, Jay, Carlos and Evie saw Vanessa standing next to Ben in her Hogwarts' uniform their eyes widened in disbelief. Hunter notice this and leaned down a little to Mal's ear.
"You guys know her?" He asked
"Kind of." Mal muttered "She's the one that punched Jay's face a few days ago."
"Really." He smirked
He laughed for days when he heard that.
"Leave it like you found it." Fairy Godmother sanged before speaking normally. "And by that I mean just leave it."
Jay quickly tossed everything that he took back in the limo before he noticed Audrey.
"Hello, Foxy." He smirked as walked towards her. "The names Jay."
"Is that your only line?" Vanessa joked
Hunter couldn't help but smirked at this. Jay blushed at that as he did say the same to her.
"Welcome to Auradon Prep." Fairy Godmother smiled as she stepped in. "I'm Fairy Godmother. Headmistress."
"The Fairy Godmother?" Mal asked "As in Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo?"
"Bibbidi-Bobbidi you know it." Fairy Godmother smiled
"Yeah, I always wondered what it felt like for Cinderella, When you just appeared, out of nowhere, with that sparkly wand and warm smile." Mal said "And sparkly wand."
Vanessa raised a brow at this and Hunter noticed it so he nudged his sister side.
"Dial It down, Mal." He whispered
He held in a groan with a fake smile when she stepped on his foot.
"That was a long time ago." Fairy Godmother said "And as I always say, 'Don't focus on the pastor you'll miss the future.'"
"Since when has she ever said that?" Vanessa whispered to Ben.
He coughed to clear a chuckle before stepping forward to introduce himself.
"It's so good to finally meet you all." He smiled "I'm Ben."
"Prince Benjamin. Soon to be King." Audrey cut in.
"You had me at Prince." Evie smiled and crutsie. "My mom is a Queen. Which makes me a princess."
"The Evil Queen has no royal status here and neither do you." Audrey stated with a fake smile.
Hunter glared at her and was about to step in to say something till Vanessa came in between Evie and Audrey.
"As always Audrey, you seemed to forget. The Evil Queen was married to Snow Whites father before he died long ago. Their marriage pretty much still entitled her to royal status, no matter how much you hate to admit it. Now why don't you shut it before I make you." Vanessa smirked
This time Audrey did scowled at her as her cheek were red from embarrassment. Evie smiled at Vanessa for standing up for her while the others were shocked and surprised by this.
"I'm Vanessa Potter, Ben's sister. Happy to see you all again." She smiled
"Yes, my sister has told me all about her time on the Isle. Which earned her a few weeks of grounding from our parents." Ben joked
"Still worth it. What worth living without a few adventures." Vanessa shrugged
Ben chuckled.
"And this is Audrey." He said as he gestures towards the rude princess.
"Princess Audrey. His girlfriend." Audrey smiled as grabbed his hand. "Right, Bennyboo?"
Vanessa faked gagged at her nickname for her brother. Even Hunter raised a brow in disliked of the nickname.
"Ben, Vanessa and Audrey are going to show you all around. And I'll see you all tomorrow." Fairy Godmother said as she pulled them apart. "The doors of wisdom are never shut! But the library hours are from 8:00 am to 11:00pm. And as you may have heard, I have a little thing about curfews."
With that said she and the band left before Ben went to shake the VK's hands.
"It is so, so good to finally meet you all." He said as he went to shake the other VK's hands.
When he shook Mal's hand Vanessa couldn't hide her smile when she saw the look Ben gave her. She swore that she saw sparks between them. Right there she wanted to do her happy dance but was able to hold it in.
"This is a momentous occasion…" Ben continued as he shook Hunters's hand and went shake Carlos's and Evies'.
Vanessa then followed her brothers' lead as she went to shake Jay hand. He was a little wary at first but shook it. Vanessa shook Mal's hand before shaking Hunters. Now that she was closer he and Lucas do look alike. Only difference was their hair and she had to admit that Hunters' color was much nicer. When Hunter held her hand and looked into her eyes he could help but feel this strange warmness in his heart.
"And one that I hope will go down in history…" Ben said
Then Vanessa shook Carlos and she laughed as he still had chocolate on his hand. She was going to shake Evie's hand but the blue haired girl ended up hugging her.
"...as the day our two peoples began to heal." Ben said
"Or the day that you showed five people where the bathrooms' are." Mal said
Both Ben and Vanessa laughed.
"A little bit over the top?" He asked
"A little more than a little." Mal said
"Told you so, Ben." Vanessa teased
"Indeed. So much for my first impression." Ben smiled
Vanessa again smiled at this as she could tell that something was happening between them. Audrey saw this too and stepped in between them.
"Hey! You're Maleficent's son and daughter right?" She asked "Yeah, you know what? I totally do not blame you two for your mother trying to kill my parents and stuff."
Vanessa could only gape at her words and slapped her forehead. Even Mal and Hunter couldn't believe she mentioning this.
'That's it she's gonna get it later.' She mentally said
"Oh, my mom is Aurora. Sleeping..." Audrey went on.
"Beauty." Mal and Hunter said with fake smiles.
"Yeah, we've heard the name." Hunter said
"And you know, we totally don't blame your grandparents for inviting everyone in the world but our mother to their stupid christening." Mal said
"Water under the bridge." Audrey smiled
"Totes." Mal smiled before they both faked laughed
"Though you can't blame their mother, Audrey. After all that was rude of your grandparents to not invite the most powerful fairy in the world. Even though she is to be feared they should have at least showed her some respect." Vanessa said "Then maybe all that wouldn't have happened. So...who's fault is it really?"
Mal and Hunter couldn't help but smirk at her words as it was true. When they looked at Audrey's reaction their smirk got wider. Her face was so beat red and if she could, steam would be coming out of her ears. Not wanting to deal with another fight Ben stepped in and started the tour.
"That was very entertaining." Hunter said to Vanessa as they walked together in the tour.
"What can I say, I enjoy taking down that prissy princess. And trust me she needs to." Vanessa said
"I'm sure my sister would enjoy seeing that. But don't worry about butting in. Mal knows how to take care of herself." He said
"I know, but it's fun doing it either way." She smiled
After showing them the statue of King Adam turn from human to Beast they entered the school.
"So, you guys have a lot of magic here at Auradon?" Mal asked "Like wands and things like that?"
Hunter had to bite back an annoyed sigh.
'Could she be more obvious?' He thought
"Yeah, it exist of course. Vanessa here actually goes to the most famous magical school in the world. Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry." Ben smiled as he looked at his sister with pride.
"Sadly here it is pretty much retired. Mostly everyone here are just ordinary mortals." Vanessa said
"Who happens to be Kings and Queens." Hunter smirked
"That's true. Our royal blood goes back hundreds of years." Audrey smiled as she placed Ben's arm around her shoulders.
He looked uncomfortable and Vanessa just rolled her eyes. It obvious on what she was doing. Minutes later, one of the Band members Doug: son of Dopey and one of Vanessa's friends came down the stairs. Ben quickly let Audrey go to talk to him.
"This is Doug. He's gonna help you with your class schedules and show you the rest of the dorms." Ben said, then walked up to them but was mostly looking at Mal. "I'll see you later okay? And if there is anything you need, feel free to…"
"Ask Doug and the witch." Audrey cut in and pulled Ben away.
Vanessa quickly took out her wand but Doug stopped her.
"Vanessa, no, no. Remember your school rule. No magic outside of school." He said as he struggled to keep her from casting a spell.
She sighed with a pout as she knew he was right and put her wand away.
"Really, that's a rule?" Mal asked
"Sadly yes." Vanessa said
"That sucks." Mal said
"Hi guys. I'm Dopey's son? As in Dopey, Doc, Bashful, Grampy, Happy, Sleepy,..." He said but stopped when he saw Evie. "Heigh-Ho."
"Evie. Evil Queen's daughter." Evie flirted
Vanessa nudged his shoulder when he was still staring at her in a daze.
"Okay. So about your classes. I put in the requirements already. History of Woodsmen and Pirates, Safety rules of the internet, and Remedial Goodness 101." Doug said
"Let me guess...new class?" Mal asked before eating a candy.
"Yeah." Doug nodded
"Come on guys let's go find our dorms." Mal ordered
Everyone but Hunter followed her as he knew none of them knew where the dorms where.
"Um guys." Vanessa called out. "Dorms are this way."
Doug had went to show the boys their rooms while Vanessa showed Mal and Evie theirs.
"So...you've been an Auradon princess this whole time." Mal said
"Yeah, sorry about that. I wasn't sure how you guys would react if you knew." Vanessa said
"But you don't act like how we thought an Auradon princess would be." Evie said
"You mean like Audrey. Stuck up, snobbiest and don't care about others but themselves." Vanessa smirked
The girls nodded.
"Thank you. You'll be surprised that not all of us are like that." Vanessa said and stopped by their dorm door. "Okay, this will be your room. A little warning it may be too much."
She opened the door and Mal understood what she meant. It was all pink and so princessy. Everything that Mal hated. Evie on the other hand seemed to love it.
"Wow. This place is so amaz…" Evie smiled
"Gross." Mal muttered
"I know right? Amazingly gross." Evie said, trying very hard to not show her happiness. "Ew."
"Ugh, I'm going to need some serious sunscreen." Mal said and pointed to the windows. "E."
Knowing what she meant Evie went to close one of the curtains while Mal closed the others.
"If you guys want to change the color you can, just let me know. My room is next to yours on the right." Vanessa said
She was going to say more but a familiar scream was heard and the three girls looked out the door. There they saw Audrey running out of Vanessa's room. The princess was covered with pink paint and green dots from head to toe.
"Oh, did I forget to mention that my friends from Hogwarts boobtraped my stuff so no one could steal them...like before." Vanessa smirked
It was true, in the past Audrey always tries to steal her things from the wizard world. Vanessa wasn't sure if it was out of hate for magic or just out of jealousy cause show couldn't have it. The muggle princess let out an angry scream before stomping away. Vanessa, Mal and Evie couldn't help but laugh at the scene.
"Oh we are so gonna get along." Mal smile
