"If someone hands you a crying baby, do you A) Curse it? B) Lock it in a tower? C) Give it a bottle? Or D) Carve out its heart?" Fairy Godmother asked as Ruby, Mal, Evie, Carlos and Jay sat at desks in the library for Remedial Goodness 101.

Jay and Carlos sat at one table while the girls sat at another, Evie on one end seemingly paying attention, Ruby in the middle with her chin in her hand slowly falling asleep, and Mal at the other and drawing things like Fairy Godmother's wand, and the castle back in the Isle.

Evie raised her hand to answer. "Evie." Fairy Godmother smiled.

"What was the second one?" Was Evie's response.

"Okay, anyone else?" Fairy Godmother looked around the room. "Anyone? Ruby!" She smiled pointing at her.

"C) Give to bottle." Ruby answered sitting up slightly.

"Very Good." Fairy Godmother praised.

"How are you doing that, you've been falling asleep the entire class?"

"Just pick the one that feels wrong to you." Ruby explained simply.

"Or that doesn't sound like fun." Mal added.

They all smiled and ahh'ed at their suggestions. "That makes so much sense." Evie mumbled to herself.

A girl with ugly brown hair walked into the room and whimpered as she quickly passed the five.

"Hello dear one." Fairy Godmother said as the girl approached her and handed her s clipboard while glancing back at the five like they were going to attack her at any minute.

"You need to sign off on an early dismissal for the coronation."

"Everyone remembers my daughter Jane." Fairy Godmother said smiling.

"Mom!" Jane exclaimed in panic. Mal and Ruby shared a mischievous glance.

"It's alright," Fairy Godmother consoled. "Jane this is everyone." She said gesturing to the five villains children, placing her hands on her shoulders smiling.

"That's okay," Jane said walking back down the aisle with hesitation. "Don't mind me, as you were." As soon as she passed their table she whimpered again and started running, Mal and Ruby turned to watch her leave.

Fairy Godmother sighed. "Now let's continue, shall we? You find a vial of poison, do you A) Out it in the King's wine? B) Paint it on an apple?" Evie and Ruby shared a glance and Ruby smirked while Evie giggled, even Mal smirked as she continued to draw. "Or C) Turn it into the proper authorities?"

Evie, Carlos and Jay's hands immediately shot up, Jay grabbing Carlos' and pulling it down so he could answer it.

"Jay." Fairy Godmother called excited.

"C) Turn it into the proper authorities." Jay said smugly.

"I was gonna say that." Carlos said hitting Jay's shoulder.

"Oh but I said it first." Jay mock-whined before grabbing Carlos in a head-lock and they began wrestling on top of the table. Evie just continued to check her makeup in her mirror, Ruby laid her head on the desk and Mal continued to draw, completely used to them fighting.

"Boys, boys!" Fairy Godmother yelled tapping her pointer on the podium at the front of the room. Jay and Carlos stopped fighting long enough to look at her. "I'm going to suggest using that energy on the Tourney Field."

Carlos held his hands up in surrender. "Um no that's okay. We'll pass on whatever that is."


Ruby walked by herself towards the Tourney field, she had a free period while Mal and Evie had class. Jay and Carlos had agreed with Fairy Godmother and decided to try out for the sport, they were in the locker room while Ruby headed to the bleachers.

"Hey." Ruby heard someone call from behind her and turned to see a boy about her age that would have been handsome if it weren't for the arrogance she could practically see dripping off of him.

"Hi." She said flatly.

"I'm Chad," he said sticking out his hand. "Chad Charming." She stared at his hand with a raised eyebrow, until he slowly dropped it back to his side.

"Ruby." She told him in the same tone.

"You're new here right, you came with those villains kids right?"

"Right, daughter of the Red Queen." Ruby told him smirking.

Chad was silent for a beat. "I'm sorry for staring but, I never expected a villain's kid to be so pretty." Ruby could hear the false innocence in his voice and breathed a laugh.

"Well Chad as flatteringly fake as that was, I'm not interested." Ruby smiled as Chad's jaw dropped.

"What do you mean-" Chad's complaint was cut off by another voice joining the conversation.

"Ruby!" Jay called as he and Carlos joined them. "Is there a problem over here?"

"No." Ruby said brightly. "Chad here, was just saying goodbye." Then she walked off Carlos following closely telling her how nervous he was for tryouts.

Jay made a move to follow them but Chad's voice stopped him. "Aren't you gonna' tell me to stay away from your girl?" he taunted.

"Well if I had to do that, she wouldn't be my girl." Jay shot back then sauntered off after Ruby and Carlos.


"Do I get a good luck kiss?" Jay asked when he approached Ruby.

"In your dreams maybe, but I will give you something else."

"And what's that?"

"Incentive." At Jay's confused expression he explained. "If you make the team, I'll give you that kiss before your first game."

Jay smirked, clearly likely the proposal. "You've got yourself a deal."

"And you've got a tryout." Ruby held up the little diamond crown the he had stolen from the car that brought them there, which he had then given to her. "Good luck." She winked then tossed him the crown moving to sit on the bleachers.


The coach blew his whistle snapping Jay out of the daze Ruby had put him in, he quickly stuffed the crown into his gym bag the joined the group of boys.

"Jay, Ben. Offense. Chad, you're defence. Taylor you're the shooter." The coach instructed.

"Right coach."

"Hey! Hey you! Lost boy! Put your helmet on! Get out of the kill zone!" Coach barked at Carlos who looked completely confused.

"Kill zone?" Carlos muttered as he ran on the field putting on his helmet.

"Pick it up! Put it on, two hands!"

As soon as the whistle blew Jay started moving tearing down everyone in his path, giving a particularly hard shove to Chad. He dodged the foam fire missiles sent at him in the kill zone the picked up the ball on his stick. He was heading straight for the goal but Carlos was in his path.

"Wait! Jay, it's me! Carlos!" Carlos yelled desperately holding up his hands, but Jay didn't stop. "Wait! Stop, Jay stop!" Carlos cried throwing his stick at Jay, then realizing he wasn't stopping, he dropped to the ground and covered himself with his shield. Jay used it as leverage and jumped on top of it then knocked down another team member before throwing the ball into the goal into the goal with all his might. He made a move to go after the goalie but he ran away while Jay celebrated in the goal post.

The coach blew his whistle again. "You," he yelled pointing at Jay. "Get over here. What do you call that?" He asked Jay referring to his play on the field. "I call that raw talent." Coach said suddenly smiling. "Come find me later, I'll show you something you haven't seen before. It's called a rule book. Welcome to the team son." Coach said clasping Jay's shoulder. "You ever thought about band." Jay vaguely heard the coach say to Carlos as he winked at Ruby then watched her walk away.

"I'll work with him coach." Ben stepped up putting his hand on Carlos' shoulder.

"Alright. Let's run that again." Coach blew his whistle.

Jay turned to move back to the field moving towards Chad and stopping just in front of him. "Oh, stay away from my girl." He said smirking then harshly bumped his shoulder with his own as he walked away.


Mal was standing at her locker listening to Ben when Jane walked past her with Ruby close behind as they went into the bathroom.

"Way to take all the fun out of it." She told him in response to his suggestion for her to join art class then closed her locker and entered the bathroom.

When she entered she saw Ruby sitting on top of the bathrooms counter as she told her something while Jane fiddled with her hair in the mirror.

"Hi." She said brightly catching both of their attention. "It's Jane right? I've always loved that name Jane."

"It's cool." Jane said briefly before moving to rush past Mal.

"Don't go!" both Mal and Ruby yelled before back-tracking.

"I guess we were just hoping to make a friend." Mal covered up.

"You probably have all the friends you need though huh?" Ruby said feigning sadness.

"Hardly." Jane muttered.

"Really?"Ruby said shocked as Mal moved closer to the countertop where she was seated. "With your mom being Fairy Godmother and headmistress, and not to mention your own personality." Both Mal and Ruby giggled.

"I'd rather be pretty, you guys have got great hair." Ruby smirked when Jane said this. Bingo.

"You know what, we've got just the thing for that Mal said then pulled out her mothers spell book and smacking it against her palm making Jane jump. "Right. . . Here." She smiled as she found the right spell.

"Beware,"

"Forswear."

"Replace the old with brand new hair."

They moved their hands back forth then up and down Jane's head following her movements, and when it rose back up her short ugly bob transformed into long curly locks. Mal guided her to stand in front of the mirror.

"Wow, you almost don't notice your," Mal paused. "Other features." She exclaimed.

Jane tapped the book repeatedly. "Do my nose." She asked in awe.

"Oh sorry we can't," Ruby said. "We've been practicing but we can't do really, big jobs."

"Well not like your mom, with her wand." Mal continued with the plan. "I mean one swoosh from that thing and you could probably have whatever features you wanted."

"She doesn't use the wand anymore." Jane said sadly. "She believes real magic is in the books, and not the spell books. Real books, like history books."

Mal scoffed." What a rip."

"You know she used magic on Cinderella and she wasn't even her real daughter." Ruby said. "Doesn't she love you?"

"Of course she does, it's just, tough love. Work on the inside not the outside. You know that sort of thing." Jane added looking down sadly.

"That's the face." Mal and Ruby exclaimed. "Yeah and then just look as if your heart is about to break."Mal continued, then made puppy dogs eyes and mimicked what Jane should do to her mom. "'Oh mother, I just don't understand why you can't make me beautiful too.'"

"You think that'll work?" Jane asked in awe.

"Yeah." Ruby said knowing that Jane had fell for it. "I mean that's what old Cindy did and she bibbidi-bobbidi-booed the snot out of her." Jane giggled at that. "And hey, if she does break out the old wand, invite us." Ruby said gesturing to both her and Mal.

"If I can convince mom, you guys are so there." Jane said brightly.

"Yay!" Mal said sarcastically then they both waved as Jane left. Then smirked to each other and shared a high five.


"Mom said 'if a boy can't see the beauty within she's not worth it'. Can you believe her, what world does she live in?"

"Auradon." Mal scoffed from her spot on her bed drawing.

"Mal, Ruby, you guys like?" Evie asked holding up the dress she was sewing.

"Yeah it's cute." Ruby told her.

"It brings out your eyes." Mal added.

"It does, doesn't it?" Evie smiled and continued sowing.

" I'm never going to get a boyfriend!" Jane whined, flopping down next to Ruby on her bed. Mal chuckled, rolling her eyes.

"Boyfriends are so overrated." Mal added.

"And how would you know, Mal? You've never had one." Evie joked, looking over from where she was sewing.

"I don't need one, E. They're a waste of time." Mal explained.

"And distractions." Ruby added.

"Oh no! I forgot to do Chad's homework!" Evie exclaimed jumping up and grabbing the bag that was his and moving to the table in the middle.

"My point exactly!" She pointed out and rolled her eyes. Evie rolled her eyes.

"Hey guys. I'm Lonnie. My mom's Mulan?" The girls looked at her, before Lonnie shook her head. "No?" Lonnie asked and Mal, Ruby and Evie shook their heads. "No. Anyway. Mal, Ruby, I liked what you guys did with Jane's hair and I and know you hate us and you guys are, well evil. But I was wondering if you would do mine?"

Mal laughed. "And why would we do that?"

"I'll pay you fifty dollars." Lonnie shook the bag, which Evie took

"Good answer I need to buy more material." Evie said as she stood up. "Let's see I'm thinking we loose the bangs, add some layers. Maybe some highlights.

"Oh no. I want it cool. I Mal and Ruby's." Lonnie said.

"Really? Their split ends too?" Evie asked and the three of them had a small stare then Evie shook the bag of money and won,

"Fine." Ruby groaned and moved off her bed over to Mal who did the same and pulled out her spell book.

"Beware,"

"Forswear."

"Replace the old with cooler hair."

Back, forth, up and down Lonnie's head went, and when she raised it back up her short black bob transformed into long curly caramel coloured locks. Lonnie gasped and rushed over to a mirror.

"I know, I know. It looks like mop on your head." Evie said as she followed her to the mirror. "Tell you what, let's cut it off. Layer it-" Evie start to suggest but Lonnie cut her off.

"No, I love it!" Lonnie spoke.

"You do?" Evie asked in disbelief.

"Yeah, it's just." Lonnie paused before moving and tearing her dress. "There. Now I'm cool." She added.

"Like ice." Mal muttered from her spot.

Jane moved in front of the mirror, before tearing her skirt. Except her eyes had widened. "What did I just do? My mom's gonna' kill me!"

The girls couldn't help but laugh.


After Lonnie and Jane left Mal and Ruby sat on Mal's bed flipping through the spell book trying to find another way to get to Fairy Godmother's wand, when Jay walked in showing off his brand new jersey, Carlos playfully whistled at him.

"So did your guy's plan work? Jane taking you to see the wand?" Jay asked as he came to a stop near the bed.

"Do you think we would be going through every spell in this book if we hadn't completely struck out?" Ruby snapped at him and he held up his hands in defence.

"Someone's in a bad mood." Carlos muttered from his spot down at the foot of the bed the same time Jay rubbed Ruby's tense shoulder with his hands and muttered for her to calm down.

"My mom is counting on us. We can't let her down." Mal snapped flicking Carlos' ear.

"We can do this," Jay suddenly spoke confidently making everyone stare at him. "If we stick together." He said less confidently.

"And we won't go back, until we do." Mal added. "Because we're rotten,"

"To the core." They all said in unison.

"Oh and I found out that Fairy Godmother blesses Ben with her wand at the coronation and we al get to go." Evie said casually. "I have nothing to wear of course." She scoffed then noticed they were all staring at her in shock then there was a knock at the door. "What?"

"Hold that thought." Mal said as she got up to answer it.

"Hey," Ben said brightly when Mal opened the door. "I didn't see you guys today so I was just wondering if you had any questions or anything you needed?"

"Not that I know of," Mal said as she looked back at her friends who all shook their heads.

"Okay then, well if you need anything I'll be," Ben said as he started to leave but Mal stopped him.

"Is it true that we all get to go to your coronation?"

"Yeah the whole school goes." Ben confirmed.

"Wow, that's really exciting. Do you think that it's a possibility that the five of us could stand in the front row right next to the Fairy Godmother just so we could, soak up all that goodness?" Mal asked eagerly.

"I wish you could." Ben sighed. "But upfront it's just me, my folks and my girlfriend."

"Your girlfriend?" Mal repeated.

"Yeah sorry."

"Okay thanks bye." Mal said brightly as she closed the door.

"I think it's time Benny-Boo got himself a new girlfriend." Mal smirked as she face her friends. "And we need a love spell." She spoke directly to Ruby.

"Already on it." Ruby said while flipping through the spell book having done so the moment Ben said girlfriend.
