Chapter 1: After Dark

Hazel's POV:

So here I am sitting under my favorite tree, minding my own business. When all of a sudden I get a text from the King himself. "Oh boy, this'll be good.", I say. I get a weird look from Jane as she passes by. I throw my head back and laugh manically, as she quickly passes by. I always get weird looks from everyone, even Ben, and Ben doesn't judge anyone. So that's definitely saying something. They don't particularly like my kind of crazy, but they're kinda stuck with me. So they have to deal with it. I glance at my phone. "Hazel, I would be extremely grateful if you could please stop by my office as soon as you can. It's extremely important, thank you.", Ben's text said. A smirk forms across my face. "It looks like Beasty Boy needs my help.", I say in a sing-song voice. My smirk transforms into a full blown grin. I quickly leap to my feet, and skip along towards His Majesty's office. I get more weird looks from everyone I pass. I scoff and roll my eyes. It's not my fault that everyone else here is so boring in comparison to me. You'd think that they would've gotten use to me by now. I reach Ben's office, and I politely yank the door wide open. Carlos jumps and lets out a yelp. It looks like I startled him. Whoops, lol. I quickly survey the room as I enter, slamming the door shut behind me. It looks like Ben invited the VKs to this lil meeting.

"Ever heard of, knocking?", Mal asks. I never pegged Mal as the, knocking 1st, type. "Now what's the fun in that?", I ask with a wide grin. Mal loudly sighs while face palming. "Anyway, I've asked you here for a very important reason.", Ben says. I nod along to his words. I kinda figured as much after reading his text. "We need your help with something, and you're one of the only people we can ask.", Evie says. Why DOES it have to be me? Why can't anyone else do 'help'? I mean, I know my skill set is pretty impressive, but they've never asked me for help before. "Awww, I'm so honored that I'm your only option.", I say. Jay sighs and rolls his eyes. The VKs have never really been big fans of me, but then again, no one really has. Unless someone happens to need something from me, then we're 'the bestest of friends'. "I assume you've heard what happened at the cotillion?", Ben asks. I scoff. I haven't been living in a cave, recently. Of course I've heard about it, it was even broadcasted on live tv. So I got to watch that train wreck from the comfort of my recliner with a bucket of popcorn. "Ya mean when Octopus Lady crashed the party? Then eventually went ape shit, and tried to murder everyone with her tentacles after she yeeted herself overboard?", I ask.

"Well, I wouldn't really say, 'murdered'. Shrimpy's mainly all talk at the end of the day.", Mal says. Hmmm, Shrimpy... I like it. "M, she can be really dangerous when she wants to be.", Evie says. Ahh, so that's what this is all about. They want me to help them with something, Uma related. Since she can apparently be, dangerous, they can't risk the lives of the 'important' people. So it's up to me to get the job done. "So, ya want me to help ya with something Octopus Lady related then?", I ask. I really need to help speed things along, this is really cutting into my down time. "Well yes. You see, none of us currently know where she is at the moment. If she's lurking somewhere in the ocean.", Ben starts. "Or if she went back to the isle to bust her pirate crew out.", Mal finishes for him. Well look at that, they're at THAT point in their relationship where they're finishing each other's sentences. I glance down at my nails, before looking back up at the couple. "How cute, you're already finishing each other's sentences. True love at it's finest. When's the wedding?", I ask in a light hearted voice. Ben's face turns bright red as Mal glances in every other direction but Ben's and mine. While Jay and Carlos snicker at my comment. A smirk graces my face once again. Well this is fun. "I-I, um, I-I d-don't.", Ben stutters. "ANYWAY. Um, we were hoping you would go undercover to the isle, and find out what Uma's planning.", Evie interrupts.

Ben quickly clears his throat. "Yes, um, we were wondering that.", Ben says. I giggle at how flustered he is. Ahhh, I love messing with people. "Aww, you're so cute when you're flustered.", I purr. Ben's face gets even redder, as Mal's face hardens into a glare. I start full blown laughing at this. "Oh lighten up, Sugar Plum. I'm just messing around.", I say as I light heartedly slap Mal's arm. Her glare intensifies. "So are you in or not?", she snaps. Oh, it looks like I've gotten under someone's skin. I smirk once again as I nonchalantly pick at my long ass fingernails. "Well,-", I start. "Heerree we go.", Jay mutters. I giggle at this. "What's in it for me, hmmm?", I ask. Mal rolls her eyes, the Jay and Carlos shake their heads, and Evie sighs. "Are you sure you're not secretly a VK?", Evie jokingly asks. My smirk widens. "I'm not anything in particular.", I reply. Why does it matter who my parents are or aren't? Why is everyone so obsessed with that? "You could just do it out of the kindness of your heart?", Carlos says. I immediately throw my head back and laugh uncontrollably. I have to grab Evie for support so I don't fall over. Wow, and I thought Carlos was really soft BEFORE he got a GF. I finally stop laughing, and let go of Evie. I straighten myself up, and smoothen down my clothes.

"Wow, Carlos. Jane's REALLY making you go soft.", I say. Carlos stiffens at the mention of his girlfriend. Oh, is that a sensitive topic? I'll make sure to remember that. "I'll tell you what, I'll help ya and do whatever you want me to do. IF-", I say. "Of course there's an 'IF'.", Mal grumbles. Ooooo, it looks like someone's moody. A face splitting grin yeets itself onto my face again. "If you change the rules so the school's dress code doesn't apply to me.", I say. Ben deeply sighs. Ben and I have had a lot of, differences in opinion, about what is and isn't 'school appropriate'. "The school has a dress code?", Carlos asks. "Yes, a very loose one. You can mainly wear whatever you want, as long as you're not showing any excessive skin.", Evie says. Of course the 'fashion icon' would know all about the school's retarded dress code. "Well that's stupid, I want to be able to wear whatever the fuck I want.", I state. "HEY! LANGUAGE!", Ben scolds. Ben and I also don't see eye to eye about what words are and aren't 'appropriate'. "We're not in school. I'll say whatever the FUCK I want to say. Oh, and that's another thing. I want to be able to say whatever I want during school hours", I say. Ben groans as he rubs his face. "I don't think that Fairy Godmother would approve those changes.", Ben says as he gives me a pleading look.

I giggle at this. He doesn't want to explain to Fairy Godmother why he's changing the rules for me. "Well you ARE the King. I'm sure she won't question your judgement.", I say with a smug face. "You're not going to back down from this, are you?", Ben grumbles. I'm assuming that's a rhetorical question. "Awww, you know me so well.", I coo. Mal puts her hand on Ben's shoulder. "You don't have to do this. We can just figure something else out.", Mal says. I roll my eyes. She acts like I'm asking for the wand or some shit. I just want to be able to wear what I want, and say what I want. Is that too much to ask for? "No, she's the only one that would be able to pull this off... It's a deal.", Ben says. A big ass grin forms on my face. I extend my hand out to shake on it. He wearily extends his hand as well. We shake hands, then I turn to leave. "I'll be back once I'm done changing.", I say. I saunter over to the door. "Meet us by the garage tonight after dark.", Jay says. I swing the door wide open, and quickly turn around. I salute the VK in question, then leave. Slamming the door shut behind me. I strut all the way from Ben's office, to my dorm room. I insert my key into the lock, and shove my door wide open. I step inside, shutting and locking the door behind me. I used to have a roommate at one point, but ya see, I don't really do roommates.

So she obviously had to go, and after that lil incident, Ben agreed that I can have my own dorm room. So I had the extra bed removed, and put some fun stuff in it's place. Since I have 2 closets, I get to put all my 'Auradon appropriate clothes' in 1 closet, and my fun clothes in the other. I glance down at what I'm wearing, then I skip over to the mirror. I mean, don't get me wrong, I like these clothes, but they're just not fun enough. Don't even get me started on my hair either! It's cute, but not fun enough. I'm in serious need of a makeover. My hair's a blonde to bright red reverse ombre. I remember how much I loved it at the time, but now it's old news. The makeup look I'm sporting today is all various shades of red. Which is cute, but not very colorful. Then there's the dress I'm wearing. 1st off, the thing's knee length. Insert eye roll emoji here. It's a solid red lace sleeve less dress with a thin red ribbon on the waist. It's embellished with small flowers. This dress would be perfect for a wedding, not a regular school day. The heels I'm currently wearing are red as well. If you couldn't tell, the theme here is red. So I'm wearing red strappy high heels, which again, are cute. Just not for the occasion. For some reason it's normal for everyone to dress this fancy. Except the VKs, they run around rocking leather and nobody bats an eye. Well, Evie and Mal used to wear leather. Evie wears more frilly things now, while Mal flip flops between frilly and edgy. I glance down at my outfit one last time, before quickly walking over to my fun clothes closet. I smirk as I throw the closet door open. I smirk before saying, "This'll be fun."
