Long time no see everyone, I'm so sorry for the long wait for this chapter, but I was focused on my other stories. Compared to my other ones, this one is short, but I'll make up for it somehow. After this, I'd like to do my Warcraft story, but I'm sure I can do the next chapter. Now for some reviews answered.

212.0: What do you mean by that?

Daniel6: Thank you, and I promise to do my best.

Guest: Maleficent will meet her counterpart in this chapter, but not the other Aurora just yet.

Lord Halcyon: You're damn right.

Qiralyn Cassette: You'll find out in the chapter after this.

Agent-angelina: Yeah, this chapter.

supergodzillaSailorCosmos: I will continue this story, and Hades just had a different style of parenting.

Dilara345: Wish come true.

Kitsune No Hi 75: You'll find out this chapter.

Okay everyone, I've counted the votes and I have decided to let Maleficent and Hades get together. I really think the two would get along well and I have an idea how the two will met. Also I want your opinions on something. I have two ways on how this story goes, one of them is the portal closing, and reopening after the advents of Descendants 3 and Maleficent 2. Or option 2, Maleficent kepts the portal open forever and I do the advents of both Descendants 3 and Maleficent 2. It's your choice and I'm okay with either choice. For now, enjoy the chapter.


Chapter 3: The Mistress of Evil's life story part 1.

The sun shined high in the sky, bringing another day for the United States of Auradon. However, just because it looked like a nice day, didn't mean it was peaceful in Auradon. At Auradon Prep School, Ben, Fairy Godmother, Jay, Carlos, Doug, Lonnie, Evie, Jane, Belle and Adam were currently outside the school, preparing to search for Mal.

It has been a day since Maleficent's surprise appearance with Mal going after her mother. Everyone had stayed up late last night to wait for Mal to come back, but when it became midnight, they had no choice, but to go to bed. They decided since Mal didn't return to them, something must have happened to her.

Thinking that Mal was endangered, Ben decided to form a search party to find his girlfriend and if necessary, save her from the Mistress of Evil. So far only Evie, Jay, Carlos, Fairy Godmother, Jane, Belle, Adam, Doug and Lonnie have joined Ben to search for Mal. They were all wearing their casual outfits, except for Ben, who settled on wearing the clothes he wore when he visited the Isle of the Lost. Everyone else, including the guards were too terrified at the chances of running into the Mistress of Evil to search for their possible future queen.

Some people like Audrey, Chad and Audrey's grandmother didn't really care what happened to Mal, actually hoping her mother destroys her. Ben planned to punish them when he returned with Mal by his side, but right now needed to find and save her.

"Is this all who are willing to help me find Mal?" Ben questioned the gathered people to make sure that they're not forgetting someone. "That's everyone Ben. Everyone's too afraid of Maleficent to come out". Evie informed the king, angered that the people of Auradon were more worried about their own necks instead of helping find Mal and 'save' her.

"Argh, cowards!" Ben cursed in anger, disappointed that his people didn't care about what happened to Mal. "Ben, you can't blame them. Maleficent is more powerful than ever and everyone fears her more after seeing her destroy Fairy Godmother's wand". Belle told her son, understanding why the people of Auradon were more afraid of Maleficent than before.

"We can't let fear rule us! Mal's out there, possible captured by Maleficent or worse! We gotta save her!" Carlos called out, having been worried sick for his friend. "Carlos is right! Mal's our friend, she would do the same for us if we were lost or captured!" Jane said in agreement with her boyfriend. Fairy Godmother gave her daughter a proud smile, proud of her bravery to save her friend.

"We have to be careful! There's no telling what will happen if we run into Maleficent, or if she's holding Mal captive!" Jay stated, thinking about the worse case scenarios that could happen. "Jay's right! You saw Maleficent yesterday, she destroyed my wand like it was nothing". Fairy Godmother said in agreement, thinking about her wand and how it could perhaps never be repaired.

"Somehow, someway, we'll stop Maleficent!" Doug called out to encourage them, even though he's sure he'd run away terrified if they encountered the Mistress of Evil. "Thatta boy Doug! No matter what it takes, we'll stop her and save Mal!" Adam exclaimed in agreement to the dwarf's son, swearing they'll save his future daughter-in-law.

Ben nodded to his father in thanks. "I know what I'm asking is dangerous, but Mal's important to me. If she is in danger, I have to save her, but I can't do it without your help. Let's work together and save Mal!" Ben called out as he held up his right fist. "Yeah!" Everyone called out, ready to risk their lives to save the daughter of the Mistress of Evil.

Ben nodded in thanks, before he was about to begin the march to save his girlfriend, only to hear a loud familiar voice. "I'm back everyone!" Everyone heard Mal's voice, getting them to turn around to see Mal walking out of the forest towards them with a bright smile. "Mal!" Ben called out in relief as everyone sighed in relief, before they smiled at Mal.

However, they gasped in shock when Maleficent appeared behind her daughter, dressed in the same black dress from yesterday with her crown on with an expressionless look on her face. In the Dark Fae's right hand was her scepter, taping it against the ground as she walked. Walking besides the Mistress of Evil was Diaval in human form, having a worried look on his face on what will happen.

"Mal, look out! Behind you!" Ben yelled out in concern, getting Mal to loose her smile as she looked to see her mother behind her. Mal quickly look back at her boyfriend and her friends as she held her hands out between them and her mother so that she could fix the misunderstanding. "Everyone, it's okay! My mother's not gonna hurt anyone! Just calm down and listen!" Mal told her friends with her hands up in front of her, trying to calm them down.

Mal's words confused everyone, but did as she requested. Maleficent looked at the group of people in front of her, before she looked back at her daughter. "Are these your friends, Mal?" Maleficent questioned her daughter, who looked back at her mother with a happy smile on her face.

"Yeah! Mum, these are my friends Jay, Carlos, Evie, Jane, Lonnie and Doug!" Mal began as she pointed to her friends when she said their names, who grew confused at why she's introducing them to Maleficent. "This is my teacher, Fairy Godmother". Mal continued as she now pointed at Fairy Godmother, who gave Maleficent a suspicious look.

"This is Beast and Belle, the retired king and queen of Auradon". Mal continued as she pointed at Adam and Belle, getting Maleficent curiosity at how she called Adam, Beast. "Beast?" Maleficent questioned as she gave Adam a curious look, who gave her a low growl. "It's a long story". Mal told her mother, before she walked up to Ben and held her left hand out to him. "And this is my boyfriend, Ben". Mal finished, getting Maleficent's full attention as she looked at Ben, who looked a little scared of her.

Maleficent looked at Ben for 10 seconds, before she looked back at her daughter. "No". Maleficent told her daughter, who gave her a frown. "Yes". Mal retaliated, getting her mother to raise an eyebrow. "No". The Mistress of Evil repeated, daring her daughter to challenge her again.

"I wasn't really asking". Mal told her mother with a frown. "Nor was I". Maleficent replied to her daughter, shaking her head sideways as if she was saying she wouldn't allow it. Diaval and everyone else watched Maleficent and Mal with Diaval sighing, while everyone else was surprised at the Mistress of Evil's denial of Mal's relationship with Ben like that.

"What are you gonna do? Turn him into a goat?" Mal questioned her mother, who looked back at Ben with a thoughtful look. "Hmmm". Maleficent hummed with a smile, making Ben gulp as he took a step back. "I was just joking!" Mal quickly exclaimed with wide eyes, making Maleficent chuckle at her daughter. "Don't worry, I won't turn him into a goat…unless I feel like it". Maleficent told her daughter, making her giggle a bit.

Seeing Mal and her mother like this was a bit shocking for the residents of this world, especially Evie, Carlos and Jay since they've never seen 'Maleficent' like this. "Mal, what's going on? How is your mother here when she's still in her container?" Evie asked her best friend, hoping that Mal knows how her mother can be in two places at once.

Evie's question caught Mal's attention as she turned to face her friends and boyfriend. "That's the thing Evie. The truth is…this isn't our 'Maleficent". Mal told her friend, confusing the daughter of the Evil Queen and everyone else of this world. "Mal sweetie, you're not making much sense". Fairy Godmother told her student, confused by the purple haired girl's words.

Mal looked at Fairy Godmother and was about to explain, but Maleficent placed her left hand on her daughter's right shoulder, getting her attention. "I think it's better if I explain it Mal". Maleficent said to her daughter, who thought about it for a second, before she nodded to her mother.

"Okay mum". Mal said as she stepped back, allowing Maleficent to be the one to explain. "People of Auradon, it is just as my daughter said. I am not the 'Maleficent' of this world, but the 'Maleficent' of another world". Maleficent told her daughter's friends, teacher, boyfriend and possibly future parents-in-law.

What Maleficent said made everyone widen their eyes in shock, having expected many answers, but this was not one of them. "A different world! You're joking, right?" Jay questioned in disbelief, not believing Maleficent's words. "What my Mistress said is true. She isn't your 'Maleficent', but one from a different world". Diaval stated as he stepped forward, getting the people of this world, except Mal to look at him.

"And you are?" Jane questioned Diaval, having never seen him before, making the human form raven chuckle. "You've all already met me, though it was when I was in my original form, so allow me to introduce myself. I am my Mistress' friend and servant, Diaval". Diaval introduced himself with a bow, making them all gasp in shock.

"You…you're that crow?!" Adam question in disbelief, making Diaval narrow his eyes in a frown. "Correction, I'm a raven". Diaval corrected as he let out a frustrated huff as he turned around. "Please don't get upset. Your counterpart is a crow and he has a different name. But one thing's certain, you're way cooler than Diablo". Mal told her mother's friend, placing her right hand on his left shoulder, causing Diaval to let out a grateful smile at her.

In the short time since they've meet, Mal and Diaval have become good friends, especially when she learned that Diaval was the pretty raven that visited her before the anniversary party.

"Thank you Young Mistress". Diaval thanked Mal with a smile as he took hold of her right hand and kissed her hand, making the purple haired girl giggle. "But, it shouldn't be possible. There's no magic that can turn a raven into a human!" Fairy Godmother called out in disbelief, knowing no spell can transform an animal into a human.

"Perhaps not of this world, but it's different in my world". Maleficent told the fairy, getting Carlos to scoff. "Do you really expect us to believe you?" Carlos questioned the Mistress of Evil, making her gave him a small glare, causing the white haired boy to gulp in fear. "Perhaps you need to see proof. Take me to where you're keeping the 'Maleficent' of this world and you'll see that I'm telling no lie". Maleficent told the people of this world, her eyes narrowing a bit.

King Adam stepped forward to Maleficent and met her gaze with a strong glare. "Why should we trust you? For all we know, this could be a plot to turn us all to stone!" Adam questioned the Mistress of Evil, refusing to take any chances. Maleficent softened her gaze as she spoke.

"King Beast, I understand your distrust of me, consider the evil deeds that my counterpart has committed in this world, but I assure you that I'm not like her, nor do I wish to harm anyone here in Auradon. My only wishes are to see my counterpart and spend as much time as possible with my daughter". Maleficent explained to the retired king as she gave her daughter a gentle smile, one that Mal happily returned.

Everyone looked surprised at Maleficent's words and the way she was looking at Mal, while Diaval had a happy smile on his face at seeing his mistress happy. "Dad, let's give her a chance. I mean, she seems different from the way 'Maleficent' was at the coordination, so I think it's okay to trust her". Ben said to his father, starting to trust this 'Maleficent', seeing how his girlfriend trusts her.

Adam looked at his son for a few moments, before he sighed. "Very well, but be warned that we'll be keeping an eye on you". Adam told the Mistress of Evil, who turned to look at him. "That's to be expected". Maleficent replied as she walked past him and towards Auradon Prep School with Diaval and Mal following her.

Hesitating for a bit, everyone else began to follow the Mistress of Evil, who was being guided by her daughter. Soon they all reached Ben's office with Diaval pushing the door open for his mistress. "Mistresses". Diaval said as he stepped out of the way, giving Maleficent and Mal a bow. "What a gentleman". Maleficent stated as she and her daughter walked into the officer, before her eyes took notice of the container on the desk, where a green lizard was pressing against the glass, looking at her in shock.

Soon Ben and the others walked into the office, and saw that their 'Maleficent' was still in her container. "I don't believe it". Carlos said in disbelief as he looked back and forth between the two Maleficents, now seeing that the one with wings was telling the truth. "She really is from another world". Belle said in shock that the winged Mistress of Evil really was from another world.

Maleficent walked up to the container, looking at her counterpart with narrowed eyes. "So, what I've been told is true. My counterpart is trapped as a lizard". Maleficent said to herself as she tapped the container two times. "What did she do?" Maleficent asked without turning to face anyone, her eyes focused on her counterpart.

"She tried to steal Fairy Godmother's wand at Ben's coordination to conquer the world". Evie answered, keeping her distance because she didn't trust this new Maleficent, getting Diaval to look at her, before he looked back at his mistress. "Mistress, what are you thinking?" Diaval asked his friend, wanting to know what she was planning to do with her counterpart.

With her eyes focused on her counterpart, Maleficent answered. "I'm planning to turn her back to normal". The Mistress of Evil answered, making Ben, Carlos, Evie, Adam, Doug, Belle, Fairy Godmother, Jane and Lonnie gasp in shock as they instantly stepped back. Mal was the only one not afraid as she turned to look at her mother.

"Mum, why do you want to turn her back to normal?" Mal asked her mother, who turned to face her with a frown on her beautiful face. "I want to know if what you told me is true, I want to hear from her lips why she abused you". Mal answered her daughter, making Ben, Jane, Adam, Belle, Fairy Godmother, Lonnie and Doug gasp in shock.

Maleficent held up her right hand as yellow magic appeared around her fingers. "Into a woman". Maleficent chanted as the magic disappeared. Purple mist appeared around the lizard Maleficent, covering her from view as it grew bigger. Soon the mist grew too big for the container as it broke apart, before the mist revealed the evil Maleficent, wearing her black clothes that she wore at Ben's coordination.

"HAHAHA! I'm free at last, hahaha! Now that I'm free, I'm never turning back into a lizard and be someone's prisoner ever agai-!" Evil Maleficent laughed out evilly, before her counterpart snapped her fingers, turning her back into a green lizard. "…She has a big mouth…" Maleficent stated with narrowed eyes, making Mal laugh happily.

Fae Maleficent snapped her fingers once more as lizard Maleficent was turned back into her normal form. "Hey! You dare turn me back into a-!" Evil Maleficent began, only for her counterpart to interrupt. "If you don't stop talking, I'll turn you into a measly worm". Fae Maleficent threatened her counterpart, who shut her mouth as she knew that wasn't an empty threat.

"Now, I'm only gonna ask this once. Did you really raise Mal to be a villain?" Fae Maleficent questioned her counterpart, her grip on her scepter tightening. "Oh that? Yes, she was meant to be as evil as me and help take over Auradon! But she proved to be useless as always!" Evil Maleficent answered as she gave her daughter a glare, making Mal hide behind the good Maleficent.

Maleficent had her eyes narrowed dangerously with them glowing a dangerous green. "Useless?" Maleficent questioned angrily, getting her counterpart to look back at her. "How…could you call her that? Mal is a kind hearted and beautiful girl, she fought for her loved ones and you call her useless?" Fae Maleficent angrily questioned as she was covered in dark green magic, destroy all the lights in the room.

"W-What magic…" Fairy Godmother said in disbelief, feeling the anger that Fae Maleficent was releasing. "Why are you so angry? She's a disappointment; she failed to help me get revenge on Sleeping Beauty! She deserves to be punished!" Evil Maleficent exclaimed, not the least bit intimidated by the anger her counterpart was emitting.

"Mal was right, you are nothing but an evil witch. You had something I've wanted all my life and you've squandered it. You disgust me". Fae Maleficent growled in rage at her counterpart, who shrugged uncaringly. "Stop pretending to be good, you're me from another world so you're just as evil". Evil Maleficent accused her counterpart, whose green magic flared even brighter.

"Don't you dare compare me to you! I may have cursed Aurora, but I did it for revenge, it wasn't for not being invited to her christening!" Fae Maleficent snapped at her counterpart, starting to lose control of herself. Mal watched her two mothers in concern, before she couldn't take it anymore. She hugged the Fae Maleficent's back, ignoring the green magic radiating off her.

"Mum, don't let her manipulate you. You're not like her, you're kind, beautiful and more of a mother to me than her". Mal tried to talk some sense into her mother of another world, getting Dark Fae Maleficent to look over her shoulder to look at her daughter before she sighed, her dark green magic disappearing. "I…am nothing like you. I may have been consumed by vengeance, but not anymore". Fae Maleficent told her counterpart in a sharp tone, before she snapped her fingers.

Evil Maleficent was turned back into a green lizard, who glared at her counterpart in hate. Fae Maleficent waved her right hand's fingers as the destroyed container was suddenly rebuilt by magic, appearing as if it wasn't destroyed at all. "Diaval". Maleficent said as she turned to look at her friend, who nodded to her. "Yes Mistress". The human form raven replied as he picked up the lizard form of the evil Maleficent and put her back in her container.

"I'm proud of you mum". Mal told her mother, getting the Mistress of Evil to smile at the 17-year-old girl. "Thank you Mal". Maleficent thanked her daughter as she hugged Mal with her right arm, which she happily returned the embrace. Seeing that the evil Mistress of Evil was back in her container, everyone stepped back into the office.

"You're…not gonna turn her back, right?" Belle asked the winged Mistress of Evil, getting her to turn around to look at her. "Don't worry. After that one conversation with her, I'm never turning her back to normal again". Maleficent assured the former queen of Auradon, who sighed in relief.

"You said you cursed Aurora, but it was for revenge. What did you mean?" Ben questioned the Dark Fae, getting everyone's attention as they remembered what the good Mistress of Evil said in her rage. Everyone, but Diaval turned to look at Maleficent, Mal included, who looked down at the ground to avoid their stares. "I cursed Beastie for revenge against her father, King Stefan". Maleficent answered the king, smiling fondly as she thought about the new queen of the Moors. Her answered confused everyone, but Diaval, who gave his mistress a worried look.

"Beastie?" Jay questioned, wondering why Maleficent called Aurora that. "What did King Stefan do to you?" Adam questioned the good Mistress of Evil with a frown on his face. Maleficent turned to face her daughter's friends, teacher, boyfriend and future in-laws.

"For all of you to understand and see how different I am compared to the 'Maleficent' of this world, you all need to see my life story". Maleficent told the people of Auradon as she held out her hands as she began to glow yellow. The glow began to grow as everyone was forced to cover their eyes as the light was becoming too great.

Soon the glow began to disappear, allowing everyone to uncover their eyes, before they gasped in disbelief with Jay and Carlos screaming in terror. Somehow they, along with Dark Fae Maleficent, Diaval and evil Maleficent were standing in the air above a kingdom. "What in the world!? What happened?!" Doug called out in panic as he held Evie in a protective manner.

"Calm down, it's just an illusion". Maleficent told the son of Dopey, looking down at the kingdom with narrowed eyes, making Fairy Godmother look at her with narrowed eyes. "What are you showing us?" Fairy Godmother questioned the Dark Fae, wondering why Maleficent cast an illusion spell around them.

"Didn't I already tell you? For all of you to understand and see how different I am compared to the 'Maleficent' of this world, you all need to see my life story". Maleficent repeated to the Fairy Godmother, getting Mal to look at her mother. "In other words, you're showing us what happened in your world, right?" Mal questioned her mother, who nodded to her.

"Mistress, are you sure about this?" Diaval asked his mistress, knowing how much the past hurt her. "Quite frankly, I could care less what these people think of me, but I want to show this to my daughter. This way, they can all see how different I am compared to her". Maleficent replied to the human form raven as she turned to look at her lizard counterpart, who hissed at her.

Slowly they all started to move through the air without moving at all. They started to move pass the kingdom across the land to the mountains, passing a windmill. "Once upon a time, there were two kingdoms that were the worst of Nabors. So vast was the discord between them that it was said only a great hero or a terrible villain might bring them together. In one kingdom lived folk like all of you with a vain and greedy King to rule over them. They were forever discontent and envious of the wealth and beauty of their neighbors". Maleficent began to tell the story as they continued to move past the mountains with everyone listening.

"Why weren't these two kingdoms living in harmony?" Ben asked Maleficent, wanting to know why the two kingdoms didn't live in peace and harmony with each other. "Humans tried to invade my home and conquer it. You wouldn't understand, so please don't try to criticize me?" Maleficent requested from the King of Auradon, who was silent, as he knew she was right. He didn't live in her world, so how can he understand?

"For in the other Kingdom, the Moors, lived every manner of strange and wonderful creature. And they needed neither king nor queen, but trust in one another". Maleficent continued on as they all moved through her homeland, the Moors. Everyone was in awe as they looked through the magical kingdom of the Moors and saw many mystical creatures.

"Wow". Jane said in awe as she watched a fairy flew by her, her eyes fixed on the magical fairyland. "It's beautiful". Evie said in awe, even thought it was an illusion of the real thing, she was falling in love with the Moors. The humans, including Fairy Godmother continued to look around the Moors in awe, since this land was nothing like they've ever since.

But the one who loved the Moors the most was Mal, as she couldn't stop looking. "Mum, the Moors are wonderful". Mal told her mother with a happy smile, one that Maleficent returned. "Do you wish to see the Moors with your own eyes someday?" The Mistress of Evil asked her daughter, who eagerly nodded with an excited smile.

Soon they were approaching a tree that had an amazing view of the Moors. "In a great tree on a great cliff in the Moors lived one such spirit". Maleficent continued as they closed in on the tree and saw a young female child lying down on a curved tree bough. The female had fare skin, brown hair and green eyes. The child was wearing what appeared to be a brown dress. The feature that showed that she may looked human, but wasn't one because of her big black wings and horns.

Everyone, but Maleficent and Diaval looked at the child in awe. Mal however, felt something familiar about the child, as if she knew her. Mal turned to look at her mother, hesitating for a moment before she spoke. "Mum…is that you?" Mal asked her mother of another world, wanting to be sure.

Maleficent gave her daughter a smile and nodded to her. "It is Mal, that's me as a child". Maleficent told her daughter, who gasped as she turned to look back at the innocent child. This child, no fairy was the Mistress of Evil? She looked too innocent to be the most feared villain of all.

"You might mistake her for a girl, but she was not just any girl. She was a fairy". Maleficent told the people of Auradon as they watched the young Maleficent played with two wooden dolls with her magic. Hearing a snap, the young Maleficent stopped her playing and climbed up to where a branch of the tree snapped.

Placing her hands around the snapped branch, the child Maleficent closed her eyes as she used her magic to heal the branch, as if it never snapped in the first place. "There you go". Younger Maleficent said with a happy smile, a smile of someone kind hearted. "And her name was Maleficent". Maleficent revealed the child's identity, causing Ben, Evie, Doug, Lonnie, Jay, Carlos, Jane, Fairy Godmother, Beast and Belle to gasp in shock that this fairy was actually Maleficent. The caged Maleficent gagged at the sight of the younger version of her counterpart.

They all watched as the younger Maleficent spread her wings and took flight. She flew around the Moors, greeting all the fairy creatures that live there. Despite their shock, Mal and the others were still amazed as they saw more of the Moors. They did chuckle at seeing some of them try to throw mud at the younger Maleficent, but missed.

Soon Maleficent landed on a small island where a group of fairy creatures gathered. Among them were three more fairies that looked human. One of them wearied red; another wearied blue and the last wearied green. "Can it be? Is that Flora, Fauna and Merryweather?" Fairy Godmother questioned at the sight of the three fairies, getting Maleficent's attention.

"So, Diaval isn't the only one to have a counterpart with a different name, huh? Their names are Knotgrass, Thistlewit and Flittle, the fairies who would, hehehe, 'look after' Aurora". Maleficent told the headmistress of Auradon Prep, chuckling a bit at the end. Everyone looked a bit confused on why Maleficent chuckled, but paid attention to the illusion.

"What's all the fuss about?" Young Maleficent asked the three fairies, who looked at her with worried looks. "The Border Guards discov…" Knotgrass began, before Flittle interrupted her. "Why did you get to tell her? I want to tell her!" Flittle questioned her fellow fairy, who turned to look at her. "I want to!" Thistlewit said, flying next to Knotgrass.

"There are rules, Flittle. I tell this time, you tell next time". Knotgrass told Flittle as everyone watched the two argue with Mal giggling. "No, you told last time, so I should tell this time and Thislewit next time!" Flittle argued with her fellow fairy as young Maleficent was getting a bid annoyed.

"Tell me what?" The young Dark Fay questioned once more, wanting to know what has happened. "Fine". Knotgrass said as she flew back a bit. "Thank you". Flittle thanked her fellow fairy, before she faced young Maleficent. "Maleficent, the board guard…" Flittle began, only for Thislewit to cut her off as she couldn't keep quiet anymore.

"The Boarder Guards have found a human thief at the Pool of Jewels!" Thislewit told the young Dark Fae, before she noticed Knotgrass and Flittle looking not too happy with her. "I'm sorry". Thislewit apologized to the two as young Maleficent had her mouth open in disbelief, before she took off towards the Pool of Jewels, accidently almost blowing the three fairies away.

"She's always in a hurry, with her big wings". Thislewit commented as she watched the young Mistress of Evil fly away. "Humans, here. I hope there's not another war". Knotgrass said in concern, looking worried that another war could occur between the humans and the Moors.

"Is a human in the Moors really a bad thing?" Doug asked, seeming surprised that the fairies were afraid that a human was in their homeland. "Humans have been at war against the Moors for a long time now, and has recently ended. Trespassing could be a sign of war". Maleficent replied to the dwarf son, watching her past carefully with her daughter.

Everyone watched as the young Maleficent flew around the Moors, before she landed on a bolder next to what seems to be like two live tree warriors, who were cornering a cave with wood spears in their hands. At the sight of the fearsome creatures, Jane latched onto Carlos' right arm in fear. "What are those things?" Fairy Godmother questioned in fear, looking at the two live trees.

"They are known as Tree Warriors, tree like creatures that protect the Moors. One of them was a close friend of mine". Malficent explained as she smiled at the sight of her old friend, Balthazar. "For protectors, they sure don't look like ones". Lonnie commented, not liking the Tree Warriors' appearance.

"Don't judge them by their looks. They could be really friendly". Mal scolded her friend, defending the Tree Warriors and receiving a thankful look from her mother. One of the Tree Warriors spoke to young Malficent, speaking in a language that everyone couldn't understand.

"I'm not afraid. Besides, I have never seen a human up close". Young Maleficent replied to the Tree Warrior as she looked at the cave as everyone noticed someone hiding inside. "Come out!" Young Maleficent called out to the human inside of the cave. "No. They mean to kill me. And besides, they're hideous to look at". A young male voice replied to Maleficent from within the cave, making one of the Tree Warrior grunt.

"That's gotta hurt". Jay commented after hearing the young man's words. "That's extremely rude!" Young Maleficent scolded, before she turned to look at the Tree Warrior on her right. "Don't listen to him, Balthazar. You're classically handsome". Young Maleficent told the now revealed Balthazar, who bowed in thanks.

"You were joking right? Those things aren't handsome in any way". Evie questioned the Mistress of Evil, not finding the Tree Warriors attractive at all. "Evie!" Mal snapped at her friend, who held up her hands in surrender. "Sorry". The daughter of the Evil Queen apologized to her friend, who went back to watching the illusion.

"It's not right to steal, but we don't kill people for it. Come out. Come out this instant!" Young Maleficent told the human inside the cave with a stern look on her face. The human did as the young Dark Fae told him and came out of the cave, revealing to be a young dark haired boy, wearing dark brown clothes.

"Who is that?" Lonnie questioned in wonder at who the boy is. "You'll learn soon". The Mistress of Evil told the female, her eyes clued to the illusion. At seeing the boy, Balthazar and his fellow Tree Warrior lowered their spears, with Young Maleficent looking at the boy with curious eyes. "Are you fully grown?" Young Maleficent asked the boy, having no idea if he was an adult or a child.

"No". The boy answered Maleficent, who turned to look at Balthazar. "I believe he's just a boy". Young Maleficent told her friend, before she turned to face the boy again. "And you're just a girl". The boy stated as he took a few more steps out of the cave. "…I think". The boy added, making Jay and Carlos chuckle, getting Maleficent to look at them with a grin, making the two boys shut up instantly.

"Who are you?" Young Maleficent questioned the boy. "I'm called Stefan". The now revealed Stefan said his name, making everyone but Maleficent and Diaval widen their eyes in shock. "That's King Stefan?!" Ben questioned that the young boy was actually Audrey's grandfather. "Yes, that's Stefan alright". Diaval answered the young king, frowning at the young orphanage that betrayed his mistress.

"Who are you?" Stefan questioned the young Mistress of Evil. "I'm Maleficent". The young Mistress of Evil introduced herself to the boy who would one day betray her. Having waited long enough, Balthazar spoke, pointing at Stefan, getting Young Maleficent's attention. "Yes, right". The young fairy replied to her friend, before she turned to look back at Stefan.

"You have to give it back". Maleficent told the human, who narrowed his eyes at her. "Give what back?" Stefan questioned, trying to play dumb, but it had no affect on the young Mistress of Evil as she sighed, before holding up her left hand. Realizing the jig is up, Stefan sighed before he brought out a beautiful white jewel and threw it to Maleficent, who caught it.

"It's beautiful". Evie said in joy at seeing the beautiful jewel, while Young Maleficent checked the jewel to make sure it wasn't a fake. Seeing it was reveal, Maleficent glanced at Stefan for a moment before she tossed the jewel into the water around her. "Well that was a bit of a waste. It would have made a beautiful diamond". Jane commented in disappointment that the young Mistress of Evil tossed the beautiful jewel back into the water.

The illusion around them all changed to a forest with Young Maleficent and Stefan walking besides each other. "If I knew you would throw it away, I would have kept it". Stefan said to the young fairy, who didn't turn to face him. "I didn't throw it away. I delivered it home, as I'm going to do for you". Young Maleficent replied to Stefan as the two children reached an open field next to a rock pillar. There were more rock pillars a bit away from the one Maleficent and Stefan were next to, acting like a gateway to the Moors.

"Someday, you know, I'll live there. In the castle". Stefan told Young Maleficent, pointing at the castle far away from them, getting the younger Mistress of Evil to turn to face it. "Wait… doesn't Stefan already live in the castle?" Belle questioned with a confused frown on her face, shared by her husband. "No. I don't know what history your Stefan has, but the one in my world wasn't born royalty. He was an orphan peasant". Maleficent told the retired queen, getting everyone, but her and Diaval to widen their eyes in surprise.

"Where do you live now?" Young Maleficent asked the human, turning to face him, who looked away from her. "In a barn". Stefan answered, almost like he's ashamed. "So your parents are farmers, then?" The young fairy questioned, getting Stefan to look sad. "My parents are dead". Stefan answered, making everyone, except for Maleficent and Diaval gasp in shock.

Young Maleficent had a sad look on her face as she looked down, before she looked at Stefan. "Mine, too". Young Maleficent revealed, making Mal gasp in horror, before she turned to look at her mother, who had a sad look. "Mum…" Mal said in concern for her mother, who turned and gave her a sad smile. "It happened a long time ago, Mal. There was nothing that could have been done". Maleficent told her daughter as she pat Mal's head with her left hand, who still looked worried.

Stefan looked back at Young Maleficent with a bit of surprise in his eyes, who stared back at him. "We'll see each other again". Stefan told Young Maleficent as he began to walk off. "You really shouldn't come back here, you know. It's not safe". Young Maleficent warned the boy who would betray her, who smiled at her words, before he turned to face her.

"And if I made that choice, if I came back, would you be here?" Stefan asked the Dark Fae, who had the trickster expression on her face. "Perhaps". Young Maleficent answered the human, who held his right hand out for a handshake. Maleficent accepted the handshake with her right hand, before she cried out in pain, making everyone widen their eyes in surprise.

"What's wrong?" Stefan asked in concern for the young fairy, who was looking down at her right hand. "Your ring". The young Mistress of Evil answered as she looked back at Stefan, getting everyone curious on why a ring was the source of her pain. "Iron burns fairies". Young Maleficent explained the reason why she was in pain, making everyone widen their eyes.

"Iron hurts you?" Fairy Godmother asked Maleficent in disbelief, who nodded to her. "Not just burn, it can even kill me". The Mistress of Evil told the headmaster of Auradon Prep School, before she turned to face her daughter, who looked just as shocked as her. "Does Iron effect you, Mal?" Maleficent asked her daughter of another world, who shook her head. "N-no, I don't have a problem with Iron". Mal replied to her mother, who sighed in relief.

"I'm sorry". Stefan apologized to the young fairy, before he took off his ring and threw it away. Stefan turned to look back at Young Maleficent, who had a curious look in her eyes. "I like your wings". Stefan told Young Maleficent as he began walking away, making the young fairy smile. "How sweet of him". Lonnie said with a smile on her face, getting Maleficent to look at her. "Don't be fooled". The Mistress of Evil told the daughter of Mulan, getting everyone's attention as they saw the glare she was giving.

"Despite what it may look like, it won't end the way you think it will". Maleficent told the young female as she went back to watching the illusion, getting Mal worried about what she meant. Everyone watched as the illusions started rapidly changing, showing when Young Maleficent was staring up at the night sky at her tree, when Stefan came back to the Moors for Maleficent, how the two would play together and grew up together. The illusion even showed when their friendship evolved on Maleficent's sixteenth birthday, where Stefan gave Maleficent her first kiss.

Maleficent growled as a bit of green magic surrounded her, stopping anyone from saying anything. "On my sixteen birthday, Stefan's gift was True Love's kiss. However… that was nothing, but an illusion!" The Mistress of Evil exclaimed as she slammed the base of her scepter onto the ground, releasing a wave of magic, that fortunately didn't harm anyone, but they still felt her anger. "Mum, what did he do?" Mal asked in concern as she could practically feel the hatred her mother had for the human. "…Watch…" Maleficent answered as she began taking deep breaths to calm down.

The illusion around them changed once again, revealing that they were in the sky, which was full of clouds. "As the years went by, Stefan was consumed by his ambition…" Maleficent began to explain as a familiar figure flew by everyone, with them following her. "I became the protector of the Moors". Maleficent revealed as the figure flew around the sky, before spinning around. The figure then spread her wings and revealed to be Maleficent's younger self, only still younger, but at an adult age, wearing a beautiful dress.

All the females gasped in awe and admiration at seeing Maleficent's beauty in the past, more so as they realized that she continued to grow more beautiful. All the males stared at the beautiful younger Maleficent with blushes on their faces, including Ben and Carlos, with the only exception being Diaval and Adam. The girls narrowed their eyes at the males, before Mal smacked the back of Ben's head, while Evie, Jane and Lonnie did the same to their boyfriends. "Stop staring!" Mal hissed at the boys with her eyes glowing green, making them gulp and Maleficent and Diaval chuckle at her.

Everyone continued to watch as the younger Maleficent flew around the skies, before flying around the Moors. The younger Maleficent flew at an incredible speed around the Moors, faster than anything the people of Auradon have ever seen. Maleficent eventually flew next to the waters of the Moors, where the creatures of the waters jumping out and in as she passed them. Finally, Maleficent flew into the air and felt the wind with her eyes closed, feeling at peace, not knowing her peaceful life will be ruined soon.

The illusion around everyone changed again, this time back to the Moors, only it was full of mist. The younger Maleficent was walking close by the lake, seemingly deep in thought. "At times, I wondered where Stefan was. I was young, so I didn't understand the envy and greed of man". Maleficent explained as the illusion changed against show her younger self sitting by the edge of the cliff where her home is. It was dark in the Moors, and peaceful. "But I would eventually learn". The Mistress of Evil added, getting Mal worried for her mother.

The illusion changed again, but they were still in the Moors, only the sun was up, but covered in clouds with Maleficent's younger self still sitting next to her home. "The human king, King Henry learned about my power, so he sought to strike me down". The Mistress of Evil continued as she looked out of the Moors, getting everyone to look in the direction she was looking.

Away from the Moors, they spotted something approaching the home of the Mistress of Evil. "What is that?" Adam questioned with squinted eyes, trying to see what was approaching the Moors. "An army lead by King Henry, with its sole purpose to conquer the Moors". Maleficent answered the retired king with narrowed eyes, making the teenagers gasp in horror.

Maleficent's younger self quickly took off to confront the humans. The illusion changed once again to the open field outside the Moors with everyone standing in the sky, looking down at the approaching army. Soon the army stopped advancing, stopping in front of the Moor's gates. An old man with a white beard, wearing a silver suit of armor with a cape, turned the horse he was riding around to face the army.

"There they are, the mysterious Moors where no one dares to venture for fear of the magical creatures that lurk within. Well, I say crush them!" The man cried out to his army, receiving cheers from the soldiers. "Who the heck is that?" Mal questioned with a glare at the white armoured man. "That is King Henry, Aurora's grandfather". Maleficent answered her daughter, making her and everyone else gasp in surprise. They knew nothing about Aurora's grandfather because he was never mentioned in Sleeping Beauty's tale.

The sounds of flapping wings got everyone's attention as King Henry had his horse turn around, right in time as Maleficent's younger self flew down from the sky and landed on a rock in front of the forest that would lead to the Moors. It was quiet as Maleficent's younger self stared at the human army in front of her, while the soldiers murmured to themselves at the sight of her.

Eventually, the silence was broken by Maleficent. "Go no further!" The Mistress of Evil's younger self cried out to the human army, refusing to allow them to advance any further. "A king does not take orders from a winged elf". King Henry replied to the younger Maleficent, making his army chuckle, but everyone watching didn't even chuckle. "You are no king to me". Maleficent's younger self told King Henry, making Mal have a proud smile for her mother for her defiance and bravery.

Even against thousands of humans, Maleficent showed no fear, despite the odds. "Bring me her head". King Henry told his soldiers, making Mal widen her eyes in concern for her mother. "Battalion!" A soldier exclaimed, before a few soldiers drew their weapons and began advancing towards Maleficent's younger self, who still showed no fear. "This is really overkill if you ask me". Joy commented as he really didn't like the odds of this battle.

"Don't worry, the odds are about to change". Maleficent told the son of Jaffar, getting him and everyone else wondering what she meant. "Arise and stand with me!" The younger Mistress of Evil called out without fear. Suddenly out of nowhere, rumbling came, making the advancing soldiers look down at the ground in surprise and chatter nervously. Suddenly from Younger Maleficent's left and right, something began erupting out of the ground.

It was Tree Warriors, with one of them letting out a roar. "It's the dark creatures!" A soldier called out in fear, with even King Henry having a look of fear. From the forest came more Tree Warriors, riding atop what appeared to be boars. Among them was Balthazar, riding atop a boar himself. At the sight of her old friend, Maleficent's past self smiled, before her attention shifted as some kind of dragon erupted out of the ground next to her.

At the sight of the Forest Dragon, Evie, Jane and Lonnie grabbed their boyfriends' hands in fear, while Mal had a look of admiration on her face. "What is that thing?" Mal asked her mother in excitement, making both the Mistress of Evil and Diaval chuckle. "That's a Forest Dragon, Mal. It's another protector of the Moors". Maleficent told her daughter, who continued to stare at the Forest Dragon in awe.

The Forest Dragon roared at the army of humans, with King Henry gaining more fear by the second. Maleficent's younger self had this look in her eye, as if daring King Henry to try to invade her home. "Charge!" King Henry called out to his army as the humans charged at the protectors of the Moors.

Younger Maleficent let out a cry as she took flight towards the army of humans. Balthazar and his fellow Tree Warriors charged at the humans and soon, the battle began. The first to strike was Maleficent, who flew up into the sky, before diving down and knocking many soldiers down with her wings. Pretty much instantly, the battle was in the Moor's favor as the Tree Warriors, Forest Dragon and Maleficent were annihilating the human army.

"Wasn't there another way to avoid a pointless battle?" Ben questioned with a frown on his face, getting Maleficent to look at him with her eyes narrowed. "This 'pointless' battle was to protect my home from King Henry, who wanted to conquer it. There was no way that this battle could have been avoided, so don't criticize me". Maleficent told the king of Auradon, who looked down in shame since he knew he shouldn't judge her because all she was doing was protecting her home.

Maleficent's younger self flew by the battle as her comrades continued to overpower the human army, looking for someone. Eventually, she spotted who she was searching for, King Henry. "You!" The younger Mistress of Evil exclaimed as she knocked the human king off his horse, harshly. King Henry groaned in pain from Maleficent's attack on him, with the Dark Fae flying above him, glaring down at him.

"Ouch, that's gotta hurt". Carlos commented with a wince, honestly feeling bad for the old king. "To the king!" A soldier called out as he and other soldiers ran to aid their king. However, Maleficent's younger self flapped her wings strongly, pushing the soldiers around King Henry back. King Henry was panting as Maleficent landed before him. "You will not have the Moors! Not now, nor ever! You…!" Maleficent began as she leaned down towards the fallen king, who touched her shoulder with his right armoured hand, making her groan in pain as she instantly flew away.

Mal gasped in horror as her mother's younger self looked at her skin and saw a slightly burn, before it disappeared. All around them, the human army ran away, taking their defeated king with them. One of the Tree Warriors roared out in victory at being victories. Maleficent watched the humans run away, before she turned to see Balthazar riding his boar up to her. All the Tree Warriors gathered around, while the Forest Dragon slivered around them.

The Tree Warrior gave her a bow, as if congratulating her for their victory, which Maleficent gave a short bow in return with a smile. "King Henry and his army were defeated and sent scurrying back to their castle like the cowards they were. But that didn't mean our troubles were over". Maleficent told the people of Auradon with narrowed eyes, getting Mal worried about what will happen.

The illusion around them changed, revealing a room, where King Henry lied in bed with generals of his army around his bed. Nearby, a grown up Stefan was lighting up candelas. "Defeated in battle, King Henry began to succumb to illness". The Mistress of Evil told her daughter and her friends, getting Evie to look at her in curiosity. "How did you know about this? I don't see you anywhere around here". The daughter of the Evil Queen asked the Mistress of Evil how she knew about this, getting Maleficent to look at her.

"Before his death, I read Stefan's mind and saw all his memories, including this". Maleficent old the blue haired girl, before she went back to watching the illusion, missing everyone's surprised looks at what she said. "King Stefan's dead?" Adam whispered in disbelief that Stefan was killed in Maleficent's world. Maleficent said nothing as she continued watching the illusion, getting everyone else curious about what happened, so they continued to watch as well.

"When I ascended to the throne, I promised the people one day we would take the Moors and its treasures. Each of you swore allegiance to me and to that cause". Henry said to his generals, before he began coughing, getting Stefan's attention as he rushed over to the sick king. "Your Majesty". Stefan said as he put a smaller pillow behind Henry's head, before he stepped back.

"Defeated in battle. Is this to be my legacy? I see you waiting for me to die. It won't be long. But what then?" Henry said to everyone in the room, his voice full of exhaustion as everyone listened, knowing he doesn't have much time left. "I will choose a successor to take the throne and care for my daughter". The sick king began, getting everyone to widen their eyes, while Maleficent glared at Stefan's younger self who continued to step back.

"Who among you is worthy? Kill the winged creature. Avenge me, and upon my death you will take the crown". Henry finished telling everyone, not noticing Stefan having this look in his eyes that spelled trouble. The illusion changed once more, showing another room of the castle with Stefan washing his face before looking at his reflection in a mirror. Stefan sighed, while Maleficent and Diaval glared at his back.

Once again, the illusion around them changed to the outside, only the sky was dark. Walking through the forest was Stefan, only he had a cloak on. Stefan took his cloak off as he walked up to the gateway to the Moors. "Maleficent! Maleficent!" Stefan called out to the Dark Fae, but his cries weren't answered. Stefan turned around and began to walk away; not noticing Maleficent's younger self fly down behind him, wearing a different dress than before.

"So, how is life with the humans?" The young Mistress of Evil asked the man who would soon betray her, making the present Maleficent increase her grip on her scepter, something that Mal took notice of. "Mum, what's wrong?" Mal asked her mother in concern, getting everyone's attention as they looked at her.

Maleficent's right hand had a bit of green magic as a sign of her anger, but she calmed down with her magic disappearing. "Watch carefully Mal, for this is my moment of weakness, and why I'm against you and Aurora getting married". The Mistress of Evil told everyone with narrowed eyes, getting Mal and Ben's complete attention. "Moment of weakness? How can this be your moment of weakness, he came to warn you". Fairy Godmother said with a surprised look, wondering how this is Maleficent's moment of weakness.

"Like I said to Mal, watch and find out". Maleficent told the headmaster of Auradon Prep School, her eyes glued to her past self. "Maleficent, I've come to warn you. They mean to kill you". Stefan began as he slowly walked closer to Maleficent's past self, who watched him with narrowed eyes. "King Henry will stop at nothing. Please, you have to trust me". The human finished as Maleficent had a soft look on her face, actually believing Stefan's words.

The illusion around them changed, revealing the Moors again, only it was still dark. Sitting beside each other before the lake was Stefan and Maleficent's younger self. The two sat beside each other for a while, before Stefan brought out a bottle and offered it to Maleficent. "You thirsty?" The human asked the young Mistress of Evil, who gently took it. "Mmm". Younger Maleficent replied to her friend as she took the bottle and drank it.

After she finished, Maleficent gave it back to Stefan, before she touched her lips with her right hand's fingers. Suddenly, her hand and wings dropped with Maleficent's younger self leaning her head onto Stefan's shoulder, but it wasn't her actions. She had fallen asleep. Stefan looked at Maleficent as he ran his left hand down her face, before he had this look in her eye.

The illusion changed a bit, but they were still in the Moors. Maleficent's younger self was asleep on the ground, while the bottle she drank was lying away from her. Only instead of water, it had this orange liquid in it. At the sight of it, Mal gasped in disbelief. "He drugged you?" Mal questioned her mother in disbelief, shocking everyone else as they looked and saw that she was right, while Maleficent nodded to her daughter without looking at the purple haired teenager.

Stefan walked up behind the younger Mistress of Evil and knelt down before her. "Maleficent?" Stefan said to the sleeping fairy, checking to make sure she was really asleep. The human received no answer from the sleeping fairy. Stefan ran his left hand across Younger Maleficer's face to double check, making Maleficent and Mal growl with their eyes glowing green.

Seeing that the fairy was indeed asleep, Stefan brought out an iron dagger from his bag, making everyone gasp in shock with Mal having a worried look. "He tricked you?!" Evie questioned in anger at how Stefan used Maleficent's trust against her. Stefan took hold of the dagger with both his hands and raised it above his head before he strikes. "NO!" Mal exclaimed in desperation, not wanting to see her mother's younger self be harmed.

Fortunately, Stefan couldn't bring himself to lower the dagger, making him collapse to the ground, before he tossed the dagger away, panting. "Thank goodness, he didn't betray you". Evie said in relief, but Maleficent shook her head. "No, he betrayed me alright. Except instead of death, he gave me a fate worse than it". The Mistress of Evil told the daughter of the Evil Queen, getting Mal worried about what Stefan did to her mother, while everyone else wondered what she meant.

Stefan's eyes then turned to Maleficent's wings, making him stop panting as he ran his left hand down her wings. With a mad look in his eyes, Stefan brought out an iron chain and stretched it out to its full length in his hands. At the sight of the iron chain, Mal gasped as she slowly began to realize what he did, though she hoped she was wrong.

In the blink of an eye, the midnight darkness turned into the first light of day, though no one could spot Maleficent's younger self. Hearing groaning behind them, everyone turned around to see what the cause was. And what they saw made Mal gasp in absolute horror, while everyone else widened their eyes.

There, lying down on the ground next to a lake was Maleficent's younger self… only her wings were gone. On her back were two nubs, the spot right where her wings were attached to her body. Younger Maleficent looked over her shoulder, before her beautiful face morphed into horror for a few moments, before she let out a piercing cry that could traumatize anyone.

At the sight of her mother's younger self and hearing her cry, Mal became a shuddering mess, before she began crying out in sadness. Maleficent looked at her daughter and her face morphed into concern at seeing her daughter's sadness for her. The Mistress of Evil spread her left wing and wrapped it around Mal, before she brought the purple haired girl to her. Once she was close enough, Mal wrapped her arms around her mother and cried on her shoulder, making both Maleficent and Diaval smile sadly at her.

Maleficent hugged her daughter back, before she began running her right hand's fingers through her hair, while Diaval looked at everyone else. Like Mal, Evie, Lonnie and Jane were crying and were being comforted by their boyfriends, while Fairy Godmother, Adam and Belle had horrified looks on their faces. And Ben looked like he had been struck by lightning as Diaval could see the disbelief in his eyes.

"My mistress trusted Stefan, and he betrayed her. He took her wings from her, a fate worse than death. Maleficent's wings were apart of her, and Stefan ripped that away from her. Now you see how this was my mistress' moment of weakness, where her friend betrayed her". Diaval told the people of Auradon with a glare on his face, getting Ben to look at Maleficent with eyes full of pity.

"How could he have done this? How could he have betrayed you?" The King of Auradon questioned in disbelief at how someone betrayed the woman they once loved. "He was full of greed, and wanted the throne for himself. That's why". Maleficent answered Ben, before she gave Mal a kiss on the forehead in hopes it would calm her down. Inside her container, the evil Maleficent had this pleased look on her face, as if she enjoyed seeing her counterpart's pain.

Maleficent's younger self continued to cry as she lied back down, unable to get up. The illusion around them all changed, revealing King Henry's room. The old king was asleep on his bed, while Stefan was carrying something wrapped up in his arms as he walked up to the bed. At the sight of the human who betrayed her mother, Mal let out a dragon like growl full of hatred as her eyes glowed bright green, getting Maleficent's attention. "Calm down Mal". Maleficent told her daughter as she ran her fingers through Mal's hair, who breathed in and out as she tried to calm down.

Stefan walked up to the bed, before he dropped the wrapped up body bag onto the bed, waking up the dying king. "What is this?" Henry questioned with narrowed eyes. Instead of answer, Stefan unwrapped a bit of the bag to reveal a part of Maleficent's wings. "I have avenged you, sire". Stefan informed the king, who stared at the wings in disbelief for a few moments.

"She is vanquished?" The old king questioned in disbelief before he began coughing, which Stefan nodded without remorse, looking down at the wings. "Oh, you have done well, my son. You have done what others feared to do. You will be rewarded". Henry praised Stefan, getting him to look at the dying king. "I shall do my best to be a worthy successor, Your Majesty". Stefan promised King Henry, making Mal growl even more at his words.

"That liar! He's not a king; he's nothing but a liar!" Mal exclaimed in rage as she left her mother's embrace, who pat her on the head with her left hand. "Don't worry; he'll get what he deserves". The Mistress of Evil reassured her daughter as the illusion around them changed once again, this time returning them to the Moors, only it was lightly snowing.

Maleficent's younger self had just finished putting a winter cloak or something on, before she began trying to stand up. The Mistress of Evil's younger self groaned in pain as she tried to stand up, causing Mal to have a struggling expression on her face, as if she wanted to go over and helped her mother's younger self. She wasn't the only one, everyone else looked like they wanted to help Maleficent's younger self.

Eventually, Young Maleficent managed to stand up on her feet. She exhaled, her balance too unbalanced for her to walk without her wings. However, that was when she spotted a twig on the ground. Young Maleficent picked the twig up with her left hand, before yellow magic covered it as it transformed into her scepter, much to everyone's surprise. "The Dragon's Eye used to be a useless twig?" Fairy Godmother questioned in surprise at how Maleficent acquired her scepter, getting the Mistress of Evil's attention.

"Dragon's Eye? Is that what my counterpart's scepter is called?" Maleficent asked as she and Diaval turned to face the Headmaster of Auradon Prep School. Instead of Fairy Godmother answering, it was Ben who answered. "Yes, it's one of the most powerful weapons in the world. Our Maleficent used it to curse people in our world". The King of Auradon explained to the winged fairy, getting Maleficent to raise an eyebrow at some of the words he used.

"Used it to curse people?' Are you saying that without it, my counterpart is pretty much useless?" The good Mistress of Evil asked her daughter's boyfriend, though she would rather die than give him her blessings. "Well… yeah, you could say that". Ben replied to Maleficent with a nervous look as he scratched the back of his head with his right hand, getting the Mistress of Evil to sigh in disappointment. "How disappointing. Unlike my counterpart, my magic is a part of me and I don't need my scepter to use it". Maleficent remarked with a disappointed look on her face, before she went back to watching the illusion, missing her lizard counterpart glaring at her.

Her past self managed to stand up with the help of her scepter, before she began to walk, but still had trouble as she groaned in pain, getting everyone to look at her in pity. Though, she remained strong and got back on her feet and continued walking. Everyone watched her as Maleficent's younger self continued to walk, eventually leaving the Moors and head towards an abandoned fortress, getting everyone, but the Mistress of Evil and Diaval to gasp.

"The Forbidden Mountain…!" Belle said in disbelief, getting Maleficent's attention once more as she looked at the retired queen. "I'm assuming you know about that abandoned fortress, yes?" The Mistress of Evil questioned with her right eyebrow up, getting Belle to look at her and nod. "It's our Maleficent's home and where she ruled her own castle". The brown haired woman told the Dark Fae, getting her curious.

"Is that so? Unlike my counterpart, this place was not my home. I only went and stayed there in self exile for the lost of my wings and after Stefan's betrayal". Maleficent told the group as the illusion changed. They were floated near Maleficent's younger self as she sat down in some part of the fortress and look down in shame.

"Though, there was one good thing that came from that place". The fairy said with a smile, before she turned to look at Diaval, who returned the smile. A caw suddenly came out of nowhere, getting everyone's attention as they saw a familiar raven land on a bolder not too far from Maleficent's younger self. "It was here where Diaval and I first met". Maleficent revealed to the people of Auradon, getting them to widen their eyes in surprise as they never knew how the two friends met.

"Our first meeting wasn't exactly… pleasant". Diaval commented with his hands on his hips as everyone watched his mistress' younger self blow her magic at his younger self, startling him before he flew away with Young Maleficent watching the raven flew away. "Well, that wasn't exactly a nice first meeting". Doug commented as he and everyone else watched Diaval's younger self fly away.

The illusion around them changed once more, showing a cornfield with a scarecrow. Diaval's younger self was trapped under a net, while a human male and two barking dogs surrounded him. Unknown to them was that Young Maleficent was watching from a safe distance so she wouldn't be spotted, holding her scepter with her left hand. Younger Diaval cawed as he tried to get the net off him, while the two dogs barked at him.

"Haha, I've got you!" The man laughed in glee, before he ran over to a stool. Young Maleficent watched with curiosity as Young Diaval continued to try to get the net off him. "You wicked bird!" The man cried out as he ran towards Diaval with a pipe, intending to kill him, making Mal gasp with her hands in front of her mouth in concern for her new friend. Diaval placed his right hand on Mal's shoulder and gave her a reassuring smile.

"Into a man". Young Maleficent said as she waved her right hand's fingers with yellow magic surrounding her hand. Suddenly, Young Diaval began to transform in front of everyone, making the man back away and everyone from Auradon widen their eyes. They all watched as Diaval transformed into his human form for the first time. Young Diaval grunted as his wings became arms, his talons became legs and he grew taller with his beak becoming a mouth. Diaval managed to get the net off him when he fully transformed, though the only problem was that he was… naked.

Maleficent quickly covered her daughter's eyes with her left hand, keeping her from seeing the naked human-turned raven. But everyone else wasn't fortunate. Evie, Belle, Fairy Godmother, Jane and Lonnie all blushed at the sight of the naked man, before they all quickly turn away with their hands covering their faces, while Ben, Adam, Jay, Doug and Carlos all glared at Diaval, who held his hands up in peace. "Just to let you know, it's not my fault for the lack of clothes". Diaval stated, but that didn't stop the males from glaring at him.

"It's a demon!" The man cried out in fear as he and his dogs ran away from Young Diaval, who was looking at his new hands with his whole body dirty. Seeing the human gone, Young Maleficent walked out of her hiding spot and out into the open, getting Young Diaval's attention as he spotted her.

The two locked eyes with each other with Young Diaval being slightly taller than Young Maleficent. "How are you not bothered by the fact that he was naked in front of you?" Jane questioned the Mistress of Evil in embarrassment, having taken a moment to look, before she looked away. "I simply didn't care". Maleficent answered the daughter of the Fairy Godmother, keeping her hand over her daughter's eyes, who blushed when she heard the N word.

"What have you done to my beautiful self?" Young Diaval questioned the Mistress of Evil's younger self, his eyes narrowed at her. "Would you rather I let them beat you to death?" Young Maleficent questioned in return, making the human turned raven look at his rear end for a moment, before looking back at her. "I'm not certain". Young Diaval answered, preferring to be in his normal form instead of this.

"Stop complaining. I saved your life". Young Maleficent said to Diaval, who blinked for a moment. "Forgive me". The human formed raven said as he straightened his posture. "What do I call you?" Young Maleficent asked, wanting to hear the raven's name. "Diaval. And in return for saving my life, I am your servant. Whatever you need". Young Diaval answered with a bow, telling Younger Maleficent his name. Carlos slightly widen his eyes at seeing this, before he turned to face Diaval.

"You willingly became her servant?" The son of Cruella de Vil questioned in surprise, getting the human formed raven to look at him. "At first, but eventually we became close friends". Diaval replied to the teenage boy, before he gave Maleficent a smile, something that Lonnie took notice of. "Are you two…?" The daughter of Mulan began, before she was interrupted by both Diaval and Maleficent. "No". The two answered instantly, destroying Lonnie's chance to play matchmaker as she could tell that Maleficent and Diaval didn't see each other like that.

"Wings. I need you to be my wings". Young Maleficent said to the raven, confusing younger Diaval a bit. After explaining what she meant, Maleficent and Diaval's younger selves began walking away back to the Forbidden Mountain, though the younger Mistress of Evil did turn the black haired man back into his true form, who flew away.

The illusion changed once more, this time to a hallway, where everyone saw Stefan be crowned as king. Maleficent and Mal watched with glowing green eyes, full of hatred for the man. "I present to you the first of his line, His Royal Highness King Stefan". The man who placed the crown on Stefan said, stepping back as everyone cheered for the new king, who looked please as he bowed, before he sat down on his throne next to a woman who was sitting down on another throne. "Queen Leah". Ben said with a frown at seeing how different Maleficent's Leah was compared to the one of his world.

"So, Leah was her name". Maleficent commented as she looked up at a window, where Diaval's younger self had been watching. Young Diaval flew away, heading back to Maleficent to tell her what he learned. The illusion around them all changed, once again revealing the Forbidden Mountain.

Young Maleficent was standing up, holding her scepter with both her hands, while Young Diaval was behind her. Green magic that took the form of flames started to surround Younger Maleficent, as if it was a reflection of her anger. "He did this to me so he would be king". Younger Maleficent whispered in rage, before she let out a powerful scream with a beam of green fire shooting up into the sky and stroke it, almost like she was telling the traitor that she knew the reason behind his wicked actions. Everyone, but Maleficent had to use their hands to shield their eyes from the incredible light, including Young Diaval.

"What incredible magic!" Fairy Godmother exclaimed, feeling the young Mistress of Evil's incredible magic power that outmatched hers by miles. "Not just the magic, the hatred is beyond anything I've ever felt!" Belle commented, being able to feel the hatred that Maleficent's younger self was releasing. "She really is better than our 'Maleficent' in every way!" Carlos remarked with a look of fear in his eyes, getting the Lizard Maleficent to glare at him from her prison.

The green magic was pulled back into Young Maleficent, allowing everyone to lower their hands. "Now what, Mistress?" Young Diaval questioned his mistress, who kept silent for a few moments before she began walking away. "Stefan's betrayal hurt me more than words could describe. Because of his actions, I walked down a dark path". Maleficent told everyone of Auradon as the illusion changed once more.

They were in a green field, only the presence around them felt like they were in sub zero water. Above them, dark clouds began to gather and walking through the field was Young Maleficent with Young Diaval flying past her. Maleficent had a dark look in her eyes as she walked through a passage way, before the walls of rock began to dissemble as she walked by, much to everyone's amazement.

"Holly molly, how'd you do that?" Carlos questioned the Mistress of Evil in awe, who faced him with a smirk on her beautiful face. "It's called Terrakinesis". The Dark Fae answered the white haired boy, getting Jane and Fairy Godmother to gasp in disbelief. "Oh my goodness, just how powerful are you?" Fairy Godmother questioned the Mistress of Evil, getting Diaval to answer for his mistress. "You won't like the answer". The human form raven answered, making everyone but Mal gulp in nervousness.

"It's no wonder why she's called the Mistress of Evil". Doug commented, shaking like a leaf. What Doug said got Maleficent's attention as she turned to face the son of a dwarf. "Mistress of Evil? Is that what my counterpart's called?" Maleficent questioned, though she sounded like she liked the title, getting everyone's attention once more. "Y-Yeah, our Maleficent was the greatest villain in our world, so she was called that". Evie answered for her boyfriend, telling the Dark Fae how her counterpart earned the name 'Mistress of Evil', getting Maleficent to let out a mischievous smile.

"The Mistress of Evil… I like it. I think I'll take that title". Maleficent said with a smile, really liking the title of 'Mistress of Evil', even though she wasn't evil, getting everyone to look nervous at her mischievous smile. The only exception was Mal, who was giggling at her mother. Everyone's attention shifted back to the illusion as it showed Young Maleficent and Young Diaval return to the Moors.

They watched as the Moors darken at Maleficent's return. The Mistress of Evil's younger self walked pass residents of the Moors, who looked at her in fear. Some of them were in disbelief to see her wings gone. Young Maleficent walked to what appeared to be a large ancient island with two giant rocks in the center of a lake and surrounded by a lush green forest.

In the center of the island, sitting at the end of a twined pathway was a trunk. Suddenly, branched grew around the trunk and formed a branch like throne. A strong wind appeared out of nowhere as Young Maleficent walked up to the throne, while Balthazar and another Tree Warrior appeared, both holding separate tree spears.

The two Tree Warriors didn't stop Young Maleficent as she walked up to the throne and sat down on it with Diaval flying down, before perching atop his mistress' scepter. The fairies of the Moors gathered around with Young Maleficent looking at them all. At first, the residents of the Moors didn't know what to do, but then Balthazar growled at them all. One by one, they all bowed to their new queen. Younger Maleficent stroke Young Diaval's feathers as she watched the faries bow down to her.

"I became the Queen of the Moors, and would never allow a human to enter ever again". Maleficent explained to everyone as lightning rumbled, making the young teenagers except Mal, jump. The Mistress of Evil was about to continue speaking, when suddenly, Diaval let out a cry of pain, making everyone widen their eyes as the illusion disappeared.

Everyone turned to look at the human formed raven and saw what the cause of his pain was. A light brown or yellow dog was biting Diaval on his rear end. At the sight of this, Maleficent and Mal giggled, while Carlos looked surprised. "Dude!" Carlos called out in surprise to see his best friend, especially seeing him biting Diaval's rear end.

"Stupid dog, get your mouth off me!" Diaval shouted out at Dude, who didn't listen and kept biting his rear end. "Maybe you should say please". The Mistress of Evil suggested with an amused smile on her face, getting Diaval to look at her. "Mistress, I am begging you. Please get this dog off me". Diaval begged his friend, making her chuckle at his begging. "Since you said 'please', I'll do it". Maleficent said as she swiped her left hand out to the side.

Suddenly, Dude shot away from Diaval and into Carlos' arms, much to the surprise of everyone. "What the- what just happened?" Dude questioned in surprise, getting Maleficent and Diaval to widen their eyes in surprise. "Well, that's unexpected". The Mistress of Evil stated, having not expected a talking dog.

"Dude, why did you bite Diaval?" Carlos asked his best friend as he kept a hold on Dude in case he tried to bite Diaval again. "I couldn't help it. He smelt like a bird, and I like birds". The dog answered in a carefree tone as if he did nothing wrong. "More like to eat birds, apparently". Diaval remarked as he rubbed his rear end, right where Dude bit him.

"Sorry Diaval, Dude's a bit of an out of control dog. Please don't get mad". Mal apologized to her mother's friend, giving him a short bow. "If that is what you wish Young Mistress, I'll keep my temper in check. Just please don't let it anywhere near me". Diaval replied to Mal, staying calm since his young mistress asked him to, making the purple haired girl smile at him. "Dude, how'd you even get in here?" Evie asked the dog as she walked up to Carlos and looked at Dude, who faced her.

"I came in through the front door. I wanted to tell you guys that Audrey's coming". Dude answered the daughter of the Evil Queen, making everyone but Maleficent and Diaval widen their eyes in surprise, especially Mal. The purple haired girl didn't want her mother to learn that the Aurora of this world married Phillip and had a daughter with him. It would set her mother in a rage.

Before Mal had a chance to plan things out, Audrey pushed the front door open and walked into the room. She had changed her hair, dyeing it to blonde with pink & light blue streaks and was wearing a pink dress. Audrey didn't have a happy look on her face as she matched up to everyone. "Ben, can't you see that it's Mal's fault that her mother's loose. I don't know how, but she turned her back to normal and switched her out with a-!" The blond haired girl began as she looked around, until she stopped dead at spotting Maleficent and Diaval, with the Mistress of Evil looking at her with narrowed eyes.

Audrey let out a scream of fear at seeing Maleficent, before she turned around and ran to the door, making everyone widen their eyes. "Audrey, wait!" Mal called out to the girl, hoping to stop her before she told the whole kingdom that her mother was here. Reacting quickly, Maleficent held up her left hand with yellow magic, before she blew it at Audrey.

Suddenly, Audrey fall into a deep sleep and levitated off the ground, much to the surprise of everyone. "Who is this?" Maleficent questioned, staring up at the floating Audrey. Mal kept her mouth shut, knowing just how her mother will react if she learned who Audrey is. Unfortunately, Jay ruined her plans of keeping Audrey's parentage a secret. "That's Audrey, our world's Aurora and Phillip's daughter". The son of Jaffar answered the Mistress of Evil, having no idea what he's done.

Diaval gasped in shock, while Maleficent immediately froze. Slowly, green magic began to cover Maleficent, making everyone gulp as they could feel her anger. "M-mistress, I know that this is a shock, but-" Diaval began in hopes to help calm his mistress down, but it backfired as Maleficent glared at him with her eyes glowing.

"A shock!? This was exactly what I'm trying to prevent! Making sure that brat of a prince keeps his hands off my beasty!" Maleficent shouted at Diaval rage, who flinched at her loud voice, though he understood why she was so ticked. Maleficent was really protective of Aurora, and learning that her counterpart had a child with someone really set her off, especially since it was the human she disliked.

"B-But Mistress, please just-" The human form raven tried again, only to be cut off by Maleficent again. "Quiet! I'm going back to the Moors...!" Maleficent began as the magic around her intensified, making everyone step back as they could feel her anger. "And I will kill the little prince MYSELF!" The Mistress of Evil shouted out as her magic released a pulse, making Diaval gulp. "Oh dear". The human form raven said in concern for Phillip's life.

All around Auradon Prep School, all the windows shattered as Maleficent's magic shot out of the building, before the Mistress of Evil shot out of it, flying back to the portal between the two worlds. Meanwhile back inside the office, everything was wracked and everyone was hiding behind furniture.

"She really is angry, and I should know because I'm someone with anger issues". Adam remarked as he and Belle hid behind the knocked over table. "Yeah, and it's because of you, Jay!" Lonnie yelled out at her boyfriend, hiding behind a bookshelf. "Sorry". The son of Jaffar apologized, hiding behind the knocked over couch, holding the container holding lizard Maleficent.

Mal and Diaval had hidden outside the office when Maleficent's magic exploded. With it now safe, the two walked back inside. "A sorry isn't gonna make up for it, Jay! Because of you, mum just flew out back to her world, planning to do who knows what to Phillip!" Mal shouted at her friend with a wave of her left hand, knowing that her mother really is enraged. "Hopefully, she won't kill Philip". The purple haired girl added, but Diaval quickly shattered her hopes.

"Oh, she's planning to kill him alright". The raven informed his young mistress, making her sigh as she placed her right hand on her forehead. "We have to stop her before she gets back to her home". Mal said as she lifted her hand off her forehead, now knowing she has to stop her mother, in a way. "That's highly unlikely, Young Mistress. My Mistress is very fast, and none of you even know the way to the portal. I could have a chance since I'm pretty fast and know where the portal is, but I can't. Without my Mistress, I can't turn back into a raven". Diaval told the purple haired girl, getting her attention as she looked at the human form raven with a curious expression with her right hand holding her chin.

"Actually, I think we have a chance". Mal said with a smile, before she turned around and walked towards the window, before she jumped outside, making everyone widen their eyes in surprise. "Mal?!" Ben called out as he looked to see Mal walk away a few seconds, before she turned around. "Come on Diaval! I'll fly us, while you point in the direction she's heading!" The purple haired girl called out to the human form raven, getting him to nod at her before he jumped out of the window and walked towards her.

"Mal! Make sure to bring your mum back, I want to see what happens next!" Evie called out to her best friend, which Mal nodded to her with a smile. "I will!" The purple haired girl called out to the blue haired girl, before purple mist surrounded her as she transformed into her dragon form. Once she's fully transformed, Mal lowered her neck for Diaval, who hopped onto her neck.

With her passenger on board, Mal spread her wings and took flight with everyone watching her from the officer, with the still unconscious floating Audrey behind them.


And done. As you can see, I'm writing what happened in the first Maleficent movie so that Mal and everyone else can see what happened. I believe it is needed and hope you can all understand. Just to remind you, review how you would like this story to go and I'll make my choice soon. I hope you all enjoyed this chapter and I promise to do the next chapter soon. Right now, I'd like to work on my Warcraft story. I might either update that, or this, or my first story. Until then, goodbye.
