thought '...'
speaking "..."
I was thinking about how some of the ideas in the movie didn't work so here since Jay is Jafars son he should have some magic in him (Jafar should at least have his broken staff). Carlos being cruella's son has a thing for fashion and isn't afraid of dogs (Will keep Dude, but might add other dogs). Evie still uses her mirror, but should make potions which is why she is good at magic. All the villains are serious about getting off the island. Auradon Prep/Kingdom still using magic. This story will also show my take on their island life and what the life of a villains kid is like. I did not read the book isle of the lost so if people want to send some characteristic or summaries or anything about the book they think I should know I would appreciate it.
I know earlier I said I would not make Carlos afraid of dogs, changed my mind, but decided to give a reason for his fear.
Also thank you to all the people who are telling me about the book I really do appreciate it. :D
Mal's point of view
"Hi mom," I said as I turned around, my lollipop victory short lived as I dropped my hand with the lollipop, turning to face the henchmen that surrounded my mother. After all everyone knew if there were henchmen, their boss wouldn't be far behind.
Maleficent my horrible mother pushed past her two goons and said, "Stealing candy, Mal? I'm so disappointed."
"It was from a baby," I informed her, trying to keep the whine out of my voice and a smirk on my face.
Maleficent grinned, "That's my nasty little girl."
I smiled for a moment knowing that yes I was here nasty little girl, but I was also her disappointment. All I wanted to do was please her, and she never accepts what I do to be enough. My evil schemes are always weak compared to her genius plans. When I do something evil I'm never sure if I will get some back handed praise or full out lecture on what I did wrong, it's usually the lecture.
Maleficent snatched the lollipop from my hand, spitting on it and shoving it under her arm. Once she deemed it contaminated enough, she handed it to her henchmen and said, "Give it back to the dreadful creature."
'Well that's disgusting I wanted to eat that' I thought as my face fell. 'So much for making mommy dearest happy' I thought, holding in a sigh.
"Mom," I started only to be interrupted.
"It's the details Mal, that makes the difference between mean, and truly evil," Maleficent explained, waving to the child and its mother with the lollipop, the child hesitating to put the lollipop back in his mouth 'Nice instincts kid'. "When I was your age I was-,"
"Cursing entire kingdoms," I finished, hoping she didn't catch the roll of my eyes. Seeing as how she tells me this almost every day screaming it at not only me, but also to my friends. But I guess it's the fear of the past that keep the people on the isle of the lost for raiding their home, that keeps them giving our parents food and goodies. We don't get any of the tributes because in the eyes of our parents we didn't earn them. You earn what you get on the isle of the lost and reputation was everything.
"Yes," Maleficent said, pleased "Walk with me, dear."
As I make my way to stand by my mother I looked behind me to see my friends. Carlos looked like he felt bad for just standing there, as if he didn't see me getting chewed out almost everyday. I glanced at Evie, who was also observing my mother and I conversation a frown on her pretty face, and Jay had his arms crossed a pose that read 'I'm uncomfortable too'.
"I just- I'm just trying to teach you the thing that really counts," Maleficent said leading me a little ways away from her friends, "How to be me." As much I hated it, she had a point. Every villain aspires to be Maleficent; she is the most evil of them all after all.
"I know that," I said nodding 'everybody knows that.' I thought looking at my mother as she raised a delicate eyebrow. "And I'll do better."
I could feel my friends watching me and I hated this even more and I knew that was why mom did it. She had to belittle be in front of my friends, she had to make me seem weak. One time she had me on the brink of tears before tossing me out of the fortress hoping for me to run into trouble. After all a crying child was like a siren to the people of Lost. Luckily the gang found me before than. Evie doing her best to make me look strong, Carlos praising me to make me feel better, and Jay fighting off the unwanted attention we were receiving. The gang watched on never interfering, we learned what happened when you cross your parents, but just ready to be there when we could.
"Oh!" Maleficent suddenly exclaimed, causing me to jump. "There's news! I buried the lead. You four have been chosen to go to a different school," Maleficent said pointing at me and then at my friends.
'New school? There was only one school on the isle of the lost.' I thought, 'if you can call it a school more like a run down building with useless book no one, but Carlos wants to steal.' My mind was racing as my mother held her pause to make her news more dramatic.
"In Auradon," she finished.
A million things rushed through my mind at that moment, the main one being 'No fuckin way! Auradon was where all the princes and princess of our parents worst enemies live and all fuckin goodness resided.' It went with out saying that every villain hated that prissy place and rarely ever talked about the dreadful land we got banished from. I turned my head wondering if there was any way to escape only to see the rest of the gang having the same idea, but they were greeted by one of Maleficent's goons, and although Jay was tough he wasn't that tough.
"What?" I said incredulously, whipping my head from my friends back to my mother. "I'm not going to some boarding school filled to the brim with prissy pink princesses."
Evie's eyes seem to light up in realization, and she stepped forward beside me, her eyes already glazed over "And perfect princes." I couldn't help, but give Evie a 'what the fuck look' followed by a glare because she wasn't helping.
Evie finally must have noticed my stare and quickly pretended to be disgusted by the fact instead of excited although her eyes did give her away. She added a quick, "Ugh," hoping to cover up her mistake and stepped away from me.
"Yeah, and I don't do 'uniforms'," Jay said, adding air quotes. "Unless it's leather, you feeling me?" I rolled my eyes as Jay held his hand up for a high five, but Carlos just shook his head taking a step closer to me.
"I read somewhere that they allow dogs in Auradon," Carlos said his eyes wide with a hint of fear in them. "Mom said they're rabid pack animals that eat boys who don't behave." His mom was always feeding his head with rubbish. His fear of dogs though are realistic, his mother for a punishment dumped Carlos's clothes in left over meat juice disguising it with perfume Carlos couldn't tell, but the dogs sure could especially Gaston's hunting dog. Carlos was chased all day and it wasn't long until they caught up with him trapping him in an alley. By the time we got to him, swinging metal bars and shouting at the dogs to leave. Carlos was a bleeding mess, the scars the dog left on his body was nothing compared to the emotional scars it did to him. Carlos wouldn't leave his mothers side, let alone the fortress. It took months for him to recover, but the hold that Creulla had over her son increased ten hold.
My mother seeing Carlos fear made a bark like noise and seeing as how Carlos was to lost in his fear to notice, he jumped a foot in the air. Jay placed a hand on his shoulder as it looked like he was about to run out screaming, as my mother started to cackle. Everybody on the island knows what happened to Carlos, but after a few good beating and threats only a handful of people had the galls to bring it up again. Before the incident Jay used to be the one to pick on Carlos for his irrational fear, now he beats up everybody who tries to bring it up. Evie stood next to the two reaching for Carlos' hand, giving him a look that told him to breathe.
"Yeah, mom, we're not going," I snapped at my mother, wanting nothing more to leave and take Carlos to our tree house, where he knows he will be safe. Maybe try to find that stupid cat Beelzebub who helps him stay calm.
"Oh, you're thinking small pumpkin," The evil fairy explained, "It's all about world domination!" She smiled wickedly and then called to her henchmen, "Knuckheads!"
The goons left their places behind Carlos, Evie and Jay and followed Maleficent as she turned away from the four teens heading back to the fortress hoping to discuss this further. I glanced back at my friends wondering if we could all just make a run for it. Wondering if running away from this would be better or worse for everybody. I bit my lip as they all waited on my move.
"Mal!" My mother called in a sing-song voice, and although the voice was silly I knew she wasn't asking. I closed my eyes in annoyance and anger at feeling to weak to do anything, but follow my mother. I turned around following behind my mother's henchman knowing that my friends weren't that far behind. We would follow one another to hell if we had to…which we were pretty sure we were already in.
I didn't glance behind me, but I could feel my friend's tension. Were they as nervous as I was? We have ever only heard snippet of Auradon, about how good and righteous everyone thought they were. Now we had to live and go to school there, with the people who placed us in this hellish island to begin with. What kind of plan did their parents have this time? Worse, what kind of plan did the king and queen of Auradon have for us? I grinded my teeth at the thought, we were already our parents tools. I'll be damn if we had to become someone else's. Using the windows in shops I could see that my friends were all in deep thought. The group walking tightly together whispering to one another, the one thing I did hear was Jays promise to Carlos "Whatever happens I won't let the dogs get you." It seemed to help Carlos breath a bit better, but anger started to boil in me again. 'One day they will pay for this for everything. I don't know how, but they will.'
