Hello everyone, how are you doing. I apologize for the wait for this chapter, I have no excuse. Anyway, I counted the votes and have decided to keep the portal open between the two worlds and do Descendants 3 and Maleficent 2. And I gotta say, I'm pleased with the reviews of chapter 3. Now, to answer some reviews.

Jessaminego5134: Find out what happens to Audrey in this chapter. And about your other questions, you'll have to wait to find out.

Gabie: You'll have to find out soon.

Avenger2003: I understand your dislike, but it is needed. Please, just give it a chance.

AvatarUzumaki: Glad you're enjoying it so far.

danifan3000: Hahaha, trust me. It'll take a lot for Audrey to call Maleficent Grammy and Mal her aunt.

Okay, that's all the reviews answered for now. Now, a friend of mine and I have discussed ideas and wanted to hear what you thought of them.

Idea #1: Should Aurora go to Auradon Prep School or not, because frankly, I think she's too old to go to Auradon Prep School and she has her duties to the Moors to consider. Now idea #2, and this one is important. Should Mal combine both of her mothers blood and have the power to transform into a dragon phoenix. Or option number 2 for idea #2, should I just replace evil Maleficent's blood with good Maleficent's blood, making Mal a Dark Fay that can transform into the ancient phoenix of the Dark Fays. Either option, she'll be a Dark Fay. Personally, I would just prefer to make Mal a Dark Fay like her mother and get rid of the bad Maleficent's side in her, and not merge the the two, but I decided to see what you guys wanted. Please send reviews to tell us what you think of the ideas. For now, enjoy the chapter.


Chapter 4: The Mistress of Evil's life story part 2.

Maleficent flew through the forest at breakneck speed, heading towards the portal that would return her to her home world with an enraged look on her face, still holding her scepter with her left hand. The Mistress of Evil flapped her wings as she increased her speed, still enraged at what she learned not too long ago back at Auradon Prep School. 'I'm gonna kill that human before he'll have the chance to touch Beastie!' The Mistress of Evil thought to herself in rage, swearing to keep that prince from touching her daughter.

Maleficent widened her eyes as she stopped midair, shocked at what she thought. Sure, she cared for Aurora greatly, but she wasn't sure if she considered Aurora as her daughter. Maleficent sighed as she flew down to the ground and look down in thought. "Who am I kidding? I do consider Aurora as my daughter, but I don't think she considers me as her mother. I am the reason why her father is dead, and probably her mother as well". Maleficent said to herself as she slightly lowered her wings in sadness, thinking about the girl she loved as a daughter.

Maleficent thought back to when she first started looking after the daughter of the man that betrayed her. How she first looked into the girl's eyes, saved her life and held the child. Since the day she met Aurora when she was a young child, she raised her as her own child in secret. At the thought of raising her child, Maleficent's thoughts shifted towards Mal.

The Dark Fey imagined how things would have been if Mal was born in her world. She imagined herself cuddling Mal as a baby with a look of pure love for her daughter. She imagined Mal growing up, playing with Diaval and learning magic from her. Maleficent imagined Mal and Aurora playing together as children in the Moors. Finally, the Mistress of Evil thought of herself and Mal flying through the skies together, but with Mal having wings and horns similar to her own. Maleficent felt something on the left side of her face, getting her to lift her right hand and placed it on her left cheek, where she felt something wet. She… was crying?

"I'm crying… because I never had my own Mal". Maleficent said as she continued to cry tears, feeling deep sadness at why she was denied her own Mal. "Why? Why wasn't I given my own Mal? Was it because of what I did to Aurora? Why couldn't I have been given my own Mal to raise?" Maleficent questioned out loud for someone to answer, her heart weeping that she wasn't given her own Mal.

Even if Maleficent had just met Mal yesterday, she'd already grown to love her with all of her heart, just like with Aurora, and it hurt so much that she might be forced to separate from her someday. Just the thought of never seeing Mal again brought great pain to the Mistress of Evil, pain greater than any iron could inflict on her.

The silence of the forest was broken by the flapping of wings, getting Maleficent to look up to see Mal and Diaval above her with her daughter in her dragon form and the human form raven riding on the dragon's neck. Mal immediately landed when she spotted her mother, lowering her neck for Diaval to get off. The human form raven hopped off the dragon's neck. Purple mist then appeared and surrounded Mal for a moment, before it cleared to reveal her back in her normal form.

"So you've followed me". The Mistress of Evil stated as Mal and Diaval walked up to her, both of them having surprised expressions at seeing her rage gone. "Mistress, is everything alright?" Diaval asked in concern for his friend, who gave him a sad smile. "I was just thinking… about how things would have been if I had a 'Mal' of my own". The Mistress of Evil told her trusted friend as she walked up to her daughter.

Maleficent placed her right hand on Mal's left cheek gently, which the girl leaned into her touch with her eyes half closed in peace. "Even though we've met not too long ago, I care for you as much as I care for Aurora". The Mistress of Evil said with a gentle smile as she brought Mal into a one arm hug, who eagerly returned it.

"Mum… what happened to you? How did you get your wings back? How did Stefan die and why do you care for Aurora so much?" Mal asked her mother, her eyes half closed from the comfort her mother was giving her. "You'll learn soon Mal, along with your friends. Right now, just let me hold you a bit longer". The Mistress of Evil told her daughter as she let go of her scepter, causing it to fall to the ground as Maleficent wrapped both her arms around Mal completely.

Diaval watched both mother and daughter and saw the looks of peace on their faces. It really warmed his heart to see his mistress happy with her own child, in a way. Suddenly, a thought struck his head, making him gasp lightly, but it caught both Mal and Maleficent's attention. "What's wrong, Diaval?" Mal questioned her mother's friend, who faced her and Maleficent with an excited look on his face.

"I think I've figured a way for you to have your own Mal, Mistress". The human form raven told his mistress, getting her and Mal curious on what this plan of his is. "By all means, explain what this plan of yours is". Maleficent told her friend, keeping her arms around her daughter. "Well for one, your Mal's mother, right? That must mean she has a father". Diaval began to explain, getting Mal to slightly widen her eyes, while Maleficent still looked curious.

"So what if she has a father? How is that gonna help?" The Mistress of Evil replied to the human form raven, wondering just where he was going with that. "Well, Mal has to know who her father is. All we have to do is ask her, then search for the man in our world and..." Diaval continued to explain his plan to his mistress, until he was interrupted by Mal.

"It won't work". The purple haired girl remarked, getting both Maleficent and Diaval's attention as they looked at her. "Your plan won't work". Mal told Diaval, laying her face on her mother's chest. "Why is that, Mal?" Maleficent asked in concern, wondering why she was acting like this and said that Diaval's plan wouldn't work. Mal was silent for a few seconds, before she spoke. "My dad… isn't normal". The purple haired girl confessed to her mother, increasing Maleficent's concern.

"Whatever do you mean?" The Mistress of Evil questioned her daughter, getting more concern by the second after hearing Mal's words. The purple haired girl was quiet for what felt like an eternity, but eventually she spoke. "My father is Hades… God of the Underworld". The purple haired girl revealed, making both Maleficent and Diaval gasp in disbelief at what they've learned, though the Mistress of Evil still kept her hands around her daughter. "A God? Incredible…" Diaval said in disbelief after hearing that Mal's father was actually a god.

"That would make you a Demigoddess". Maleficent said to her daughter, getting Mal to lightly smile. "I guess you could say that". Mal chuckled slightly, before her face morphed into sadness. "Although I wouldn't say he's father of the year". The purple haired girl added, getting Maleficent curious on what she meant. "Did he do something to you?" The Dark Fey asked her daughter, wondering if the girl's father abused her as well.

"He abandoned me with 'her'. My dad broke up with the 'Maleficent' of this world and left, but he left me with her". Mal told her mother about her father, getting Maleficent to frown, but it wasn't out of anger. "Mal, hold still for a moment". Maleficent told her daughter, confusing Mal as the Mistress of Evil placed her hands on her daughter's cheeks. Yellow magic appeared around the Dark Fay's hands, before both Maleficent and Mal gasped as their eyes gleamed bright yellow.

Maleficent saw through her daughter's mind and her memories. She saw how Mal grew up in the Isle of the Lost, how she met Evie, Carlos and Jay, but never met her father. Her counterpart told Mal that Hades was her father, but forbid her from making any contact with him. Learning what she wanted, Maleficent ceased her magic, causing both hers and Mal's eyes to return to normal.

"What was that?" Mal questioned as she took a few deep breaths, feeling exhausted from what her mother just did to her. "I looked through your memories to learn about your father". The Mistress of Evil revealed to her daughter as she placed her hands on the purple haired girl's shoulders, making Mal slightly widen her eyes in surprise. "I apologize for looking through your memories without your permission, but I wished to learn more about your father". Maleficent apologized to her daughter with a hint of guilt on her face, but Mal gave her an understanding smile.

"It's okay, mum. I honestly understand why you looked through my memories. If I had the same powers, I would have looked through Jay's mind to see if he stole anything or not". The purple haired female joked, making Maleficent chuckle in amusement, before she gave her daughter a stern look.

"Mal, you shouldn't judge your father so soon. You haven't even met him yet, so you don't know if he really did abandon you". The Mistress of Evil told her daughter with a stern tone, making Mal frown at her mother's words. "He never came to visit, or even send a letter to me". The purple haired girl argued back at her mother, making Maleficent sigh before she gave Mal a soft look.

"Maybe it's because my counterpart threaten either him, or you". The Dark Fay suggested to her daughter, getting Mal's full attention as she faced her mother. "You said it yourself. The 'Maleficent' of this world was an evil fairy that abused you. It wouldn't surprise me that she deprived you of your father". The Mistress of Evil continued explaining to her daughter, before she placed her right hand on Mal's cheek.

"Don't think your father abandon you, until you hear his reasons from him. Only then will you know if he abandoned you or not". Maleficent finished explaining to her daughter as she stroke Mal's hair with her left hand. Mal looked down in thought from listening to her mother's words, before she looked up at Maleficent with a nervous look. "I'll… consider it". The green eyed girl told her mother, who just gave her a small, but happy smile. "That's all I ask". The winged fairy said, before she gave Mal a loving kiss on the forehead, making her smile in pure happiness.

"Mistress, Young Mistress". Diaval said as he walked up to Maleficent and Mal, getting their attention as they looked at him. "As much as I enjoy seeing you two show your love for each other, might I suggest heading back to Auradon Prep School? The others are waiting for us". The human formed raven suggested to the two, reminding them that Mal's friends were still waiting for them back at Auradon.

Maleficent returned her attention to Mal and nodded in agreement to her friend's words. "Diaval is correct. I'm sure your friends are eager to learn more about what happened in my world". The Mistress of Evil said to her daughter, getting Mal smirk at her mother of another world. "I'm sure they're just 'dyeing' to know what happens next. I have to admit, I'm really looking forward to finding out what happens next". The purple haired girl confessed, before she and Maleficent let go of each other and stepped back.

Maleficent held out her left hand to her scepter, before it magically shot out from the ground and into her hand, much to Mal's amazement. "Then I shouldn't keep you and your friends waiting for long". The Mistress of Evil said to her daughter, before she turned to look at Diaval with a mischievous look in her eyes, making the human form ravel take a step back.

"Since you carried Diaval all the way here, I think it's only fair that he returns the favor". The Dark Fay said with a mischievous grin, before she held up her right hand as yellow magic danced around her fingers. "Into a dragon". Maleficent chanted as she waved her hand with her magic disappearing, making Mal widen her eyes in shock at what her mother said.

Yellow magic briefly covered Diaval, before he transformed into a dragon right in front of them all. He looked exactly like he did the last time that he became a dragon in Stefan's castle, only less angry. Mal looked up at the dragon form raven with wide eyes full of disbelief, while Maleficent didn't look too impressed. "You can even turn him into a dragon!?" Mal exclaimed in disbelief that her mother can turn Diaval into a dragon as well.

The Mistress of Evil chuckled at the priceless look on her daughter's face, before she held up her right hand as yellow magic danced around her hand. "I did say I could turn Diaval into anything I want, that includes a dragon". Maleficent said to her daughter, her amusement leaking out of her voice as her magic disappeared from around her fingers. The former Queen of the Moors looked up at her dragon form friend, before she waved her hand down.

Getting the unspoken message, Diaval lowered his neck down to the two females, waiting for Mal to climb on. "Hop on and enjoy yourself. After flying as fast as you did to catch up with me, you deserve a break and enjoy yourself". Maleficent told her daughter, turning around to face her with Mal doing the same. The purple haired girl stared at her mother for a few seconds, before she looked at Diaval for a moment, then back at Maleficent.

"Is this really safe? I don't feel 100% safe if I'm the one not flying". The purple haired girl said in concern, turning to look back at Diaval and saw him staring at her with his now dragon-like eyes. "Don't worry, he won't drop you. If he did, I'd turn him into a dog". Maleficent told her daughter, making Diaval let out an annoyed growl at his mistress while Mal giggled.

"Besides, I trust no one else with your safety except Diaval". The Mistress of Evil added, making the dragon form Diaval smile at her words. Mal slightly widen her eyes, having not expected her mother to say something like that. Then again, this version of her mother was completely different than her version.

Mal gave her mother a trusting smile, before she walked over to Diaval and sat down on his neck. With his passenger on board, Diaval lifted his head off the ground and into the air with Mal still safely seated on his neck. The dragon form raven gave his mistress a small growl, getting her to smile as she spread her wings and began flapping them, lifting herself off the ground and into the air. "Hang on tight Mal!" The Dark Fay told her daughter, before she took off in the direction to Auradon Prep School.

Diaval gave out a powerful roar, before he spread his wings and took off after his mistress. "Wooooo!" Mal exclaimed in awe as she grabbed hold of Diaval's horns and kept a tight hold. The purple haired girl had a wide smile as Diaval flew after her mother back to Auradon Prep School. She looked down below at the forest for a few moments, before she looked forward and saw her mother flying not too far ahead of them.

The Mistress of Evil looked over her right shoulder and saw her daughter and friend not too far away from her, getting the Dark Fay to smile, before she slowed her pace down a bit. Maleficent was soon flying beside Diaval and was looking at her daughter, who was smiling as if it was Christmas, making the Mistress of Evil chuckle at her daughter's look.

Maleficent and Diaval continued to fly in the sky with Mal still enjoying herself, before eventually Auradon Prep School came into view. "There it is!" Mal called out with a wide smile as she pointed towards her school with her right hand's index finger, getting Maleficent and Diaval to look down at the building. "Alright Mal, keep your hands on the dragon's horns as we come in for a landing". Maleficent told her daughter with an amused smile, before she began to dive down. Diaval gave a small growl before he shot down after his mistress, making Mal laugh in joy as she kept her grip on her friend's horns.

Maleficent pulled up right above the ground, flapping her wings as she landed on her feet gracefully. Diaval landed in a not so graceful way as he slammed into the ground, before he lowered his neck and allowed Mal to jump off. The purple haired girl was laughing in joy as she slightly wobbled for a few moments. "We've got to do that again". Mal said with a wide smile on her face, making Maleficent chuckle and Diaval snort in amusement.

The Mistress of Evil proceeded to snap her right hand's fingers with yellow magic slightly appearing around her fingers. Yellow magic surrounded Diaval as he reverted back to his human form, before he readjusted his black jacket. "That was pretty enjoyable, I have to admit". Diaval remarked with a smile, getting Mal to giggle while Maleficent looked at Auradon Prep. All the windows were still shattered from her burst of anger and looked like it'll coast a bit to fix.

"This is technically my fault, so I better fix it". Maleficent stated with a sigh, getting Mal and Diaval's attention as they looked at her. The Mistress of Evil held her hands out to the sides with her pinkie and rings fingers tucked in while her thumb, index and middle fingers were out, while she kept her grip on her scepter with her right hand's ring and pinky fingers. Yellow magic appeared around her hands, before it stretched out and disappeared.

The shattered pieces of glass floated up from the ground, before they began to reassemble on the windows and glued themselves together. In just a few seconds, the shattered windows were all repaired, looking as if they never broke in the first place. Mal widened her eyes at seeing this, while Maleficent sighed as she lowered her hands. "Mess fixed and all better". The Mistress of Evil stated, switching her scepter from her right hand to her left hand.

"Umm, Mum? There's a special rule of Auradon that you should know". The purple haired girl told her mother as she, Maleficent and Diaval began walking into the prep school. "And what is this 'special' rule of Auradon?" The Mistress of Evil questioned in an uninterested tone, indicating that she had little interest in Auradon's rules.

"Well… no magic is allowed in Auradon". Mal told her mother, making her chuckle lightly as she held her right hand's index and middle fingers out as magic briefly appeared around them, before disappearing. The front door magically opened for Maleficent, Diaval and Mal, allowing the three to walk inside before it closed behind them. "I'm under no obligation of obeying that rule". The Mistress of Evil replied to her daughter, looking past her left shoulder to look at the younger female.

Mal looked a bit worried at hearing her mother's response and attempted to convince her to obey the rules of Auradon. "Mum, those rules were created by King Beast so that everyone's treated equally". The purple haired girl explained to her mother from another world in hopes that she'll obey the rule and stop using her magic.

Maleficent listened to her daughter without turning to look at her, her eyes looking forward to make sure they don't bump into something or someone. "That may be how it works for humans, but it doesn't work the same way for fairies". Maleficent told her daughter in a calm, but sharp tone, getting Mal to slightly widen her eyes.

"All the fairies of the Moors live, using their magic. Asking them not to use their magic is like asking us to stop being what we are, or worse. So asking me to stop using my magic is just like how Stefan stole my wings from me". The Mistress of Evil explained to her daughter for her to understand better, getting the purple haired girl to flinch at that memory she saw not too long ago.

"I-If that's true, then I'll talk to Ben about making an exception for you". Mal told her mother in a confident tone, determine to make her mother's life here in Auradon be as best as she could. Maleficent looked over her left shoulder and gave her daughter a small, but appreciated smile. Diaval was quiet as he watched the two with a small smile on his face.

The three soon arrived outside of Ben's office and saw the door nearby busted from the wall. Maleficent, Mal and Diaval walked inside of the office and saw everyone fixing the room up from the Mistress of Evil's outburst with Lizard Maleficent's container on Ben's table and Audrey still floating above the room, sleeping. "Hey everyone!" Mal called out in greetings, getting everyone's attention as they looked and saw the purple haired girl return with Maleficent and Diaval.

"Hey Mal". Lonnie greeted her friend with a smile, though she did look a bit uneasy at seeing Maleficent again after her little outburst. "Thank goodness you managed to stop your mother before she made it back to her world". Ben sighed in relief, thinking his girlfriend had stopped her mother from 'killing' someone in her world.

Mal gave a small nervous chuckle at hearing her boyfriend's words as she, Maleficent and Diaval stood in the middle of the room. "Actually Ben, Mom calmed down from learning that Audrey was Aurora and Phillip's daughter and came back here willingly". Mal corrected her boyfriend, turning to look at her mother and saw Maleficent looking around the room and the state it was in.

"You have my apologies for leaving this room in such a state from my little outburst. Allow me to fix this". The Mistress of Evil said as she held her hands out to the side with her thumb, index and middle fingers out, before yellow magic briefly appeared from her hands. The room began to magically repair itself, much to everyone's surprise as the books returned to the bookshelves, the knocked down couches stood upright, the papers on the ground reassembled themselves on Ben's table, the lamps floated back up onto the drawers. In a matter of seconds, everything in the room was fixed.

With everything repaired and fixed, Maleficent lowered her hands while she took full hold of her scepter with her left hand. "T-Thank you Maleficent". Ben thanked the Mistress of Evil, looking at the fairy with wide eyes as he sat down on his chair behind his desk. "As helpful as your magic is, I respectfully ask you to stop using it now". Beast told the Dark Fey, getting Maleficent to look at him with a sharp look.

"And I have to respectfully ask you not to ask that again". Maleficent replied to the former king of Auradon, getting Beast to narrow his eyes a bit angrily at her. Hoping to avoid a fight between the two, Diaval stepped in front of his mistress and blocked Beast's view of her. "The magic that the fairies of the Moors use, my mistress included, is a part of them, so asking them to stop using their magic is like asking to stop being what they are. Please understand that my Mistress cannot obey your rules". Diaval begged the former King of Auradon, explaining for him and everyone else why Maleficent can't obey the no magic rule.

Everyone stared at Diaval for a few seconds, before Ben looked at his father. "Dad. I'm sure we can make an exception for Maleficent". Ben said to his partner with confidence in his voice, seeing how important this was. "Ben, there cannot be any exceptions. We don't even know if we can trust her yet". The former King of Auradon told his son with a sharp tone, but Ben didn't back down from his father.

"Then let's continue seeing Maleficent's story". Ben replied to his father, before he turned around and looked at Maleficent after Diaval stepped out of the way. "Could you please continue showing us what happened in your world". Ben requested from the Mistress of Evil, getting Maleficent to look at him, before she gave a nod. "Very well. Make yourselves comfortable, this'll take some time!" Maleficent told everyone inside the room, wanting them to be comfortable. Carlos and Evie sat down on the two couches in front of Ben's desk with the white haired boy holding Dude in his hands to keep him from biting Diaval again.

"What about her?" Jane questioned as she looked up and pointed at the floating sleeping Audrey, getting Maleficent to look up at the girl for a moment before she looked at the daughter of Fairy Godmother. "She'll be fine. So long as I wish, she'll remain asleep until I decide to wake her up. So don't worry about Audrey waking up and running off". The Dark Fey reassured the daughter of Fairy Godmother with a wave of her left hand. "I-If you say so". Jane said with a nervous look, before she hurried next to her mother's side, feeling safer besides her.

Seeing everyone was ready, Maleficent looked forward and held her hands out as yellow magic appeared around her and glowed. 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 die down, allowing everyone to uncover their eyes and saw them floating above what appeared to be a weaving room where female maids were spinning warn.

"Years passed since Stefan took my wings and I became Queen of the Moors. In all the years that passed, my anger and hatred for Stefan remained strong and I was determined to get revenge on him". The Dark Fey told everyone with a dark look on her face, getting Mal to look at her in concern.

Maleficent's dark look then changed into a happy look, as if she was happy about something. "But then, she was born". The Mistress of Evil said in a loving tone, getting everyone confused on who she was talking about.

Another female maid ran into the room and knelt down next to one of the other maids. "It's a girl!" The female maid told the other maid, getting all the other maids to gasp in excitement. They all stopped their work and began to chatter among themselves and excitement.

"Who are they talking about?" Ben questioned in confusion at why the maids seemed so excited. "It's simple really. Their queen had just given birth". The Mistress of Evil answered the King of Auradon, making everyone widen their eyes as they looked at her. "Aurora…" Mal said with wide eyes, which Maleficent nodded to her daughter, before looking away and saw Young Diaval watching the maids in his raven form. Her friend's younger version took off flying away to inform her younger self.

The illusion around everyone changed to reveal a woodland glaze part of the Moors, where they saw Young Maleficent standing in front of the lake, wearing the same dress as before and was looking down at the water. Cawing got everyone's attention as they looked and saw Diaval's younger self flying down to Young Maleficent.

Maleficent's younger self held out her right hand as yellow magic appeared around, before Diaval was covered in black smoke as he transformed into his human form. Young Diaval grunted as he lurch forward, while Young Maleficent watched him with her magic disappearing around her right hand, before she took hold of her scepter.

Young Diaval took deep breaths as he turned to look at his mistress, who was watching him. Diaval's younger self exhaled as he straightened his posture. "Well?" Young Maleficent questioned in a calm voice, waiting to hear his report. "Well, I saw nothing. But there's been a, um…" Young Diaval tried to tell his mistress before he stopped himself, uncertain on how he'll tell her.

"What?" Young Maleficent questioned once more, wanting to know why her servant was so nervous. Young Diaval still looked uncertain, before he decided to just tell her. "Child". The human form raven answered, getting Young Maleficent to slightly open her mouth in disbelief at what she's heard.

"Something tells me that you got quiet the shock when you heard about this". Doug commented with a nervous look on his face, seeing the disbelief that Maleficent's younger self was experiencing. "You have no idea". The Mistress of Evil stated, wrapping her left wing around Mal and brought her closer to her.

"King Stefan and the Queen have had a child". Young Diaval told his mistress, who slowly closed her mouth and looked at him with narrowed eyes. "Oh". Young Maleficent said with an unsurprised look, keeping her emotions in check. "There will be a christening". Young Diaval began as Young Maleficent looked down to the side. "They say it's to be a grand celebration". The human form raven finished, but the Mistress of Evil's younger self didn't turn to face him and kept looking down.

"A grand celebration for a baby". Young Maleficent began as she opened her eyes fully and had this evil glint in her eyes. "How wonderful". The Queen of the Moors finished with a grin, one that made Carlos and Dude gulp. "Did you really…?" Fairy Godmother questioned the Mistress of Evil, unable to finish her sentence even though it wasn't needed as everyone knew what her question was.

"Yes. I went to the christening". The Mistress of Evil answered the headmaster of Auradon Prep, getting her to gulp at her suspicions being confirmed. "I planned to get revenge on Stefan in the worse way possible. And Aurora was the key". Malecifent told everyone with a sad look on her face, getting Mal to frown in concern for her mother.

The illusion around them all changed once more to show them floating above Stefan's castle, where everyone saw thousands of people walking through the castle to enter. The illusion changed once more to reveal them inside the castle. Everyone saw thousands of people walking up and stopping a few feet away from King Stefan and Queen Leah, who were both sitting on their thrones with a bassinet next to them.

"All manner of humans came to the christening, even those three imbeciles". The Mistress of Evil narrated as Knotgrass, Thistlewit and Flittle came in, flying towards Stefan and Leah. "Why would they come to this christening? Didn't they know what he did to you?" Mal questioned her mother with a hint of hostility in her voice.

"They came to foster peace and goodwill. Plus they never really liked me". Maleficent told her daughter, getting Mal to growl a bit in anger, before she went back to watching the illusion. "Oh, look, there's the baby!" Flittle exclaimed in adoration as she, Knotgrass and Thistlewit flew towards the king, queen and their baby. "I love babies!" Thistlewit stated as she twirled around in midair. "Can you just concentrate, please? Oh! I'm not telling you again". Knotgrass told her fellow two pixies as they stopped in front of Stefan and Leah.

The three were silent as they looked at the human king, who held up his left hand and gave them the peace sign, giving them permission to speak. "Greetings, Your Majesty. I am Knotgrass of the Moorland Fair Folk". Knotgrass greeted King Stefan, introducing herself to him. "I'm Flittle, Your Kingship". Flittle greeted as she gave a bow to Stefan. "And I'm Thistlewit, Your Royalnesses". Thistlewit introduced herself as she gave a bow herself.

"They bring gifts for our daughter". Queen Leah told her husband, turning to look at him and getting Stefan to look at her. "These are not just any old gifts, for, you see, we're magic!" Flittle told the human king, spreading her hands up and to the sides. "And very good with children". Knotgrass added, making Maleficent scoff in amusement as she knew that was a lie.

After staring at his wife for a few moments, Stefan sighed as he turned to look back at the three pixies. "Very well". Stefan gave permission, getting the three pixies to smile as they flew over to the bassinet, where everyone saw baby Aurora. At the sight of baby Aurora, Evie, Lonnie, Jane, Belle and Fairy Godmother grew adoring smiles on their faces, while Mal had an uncertain look on her face.

"Sweet Aurora, I wish for you the gift of beauty". Knotgrass said to the baby as she blew magical petals at the infant, making Aurora coo at the pixie. With her gift done, the red pixie flew aside for Flittle to have her turn. "My wish is that you will never be blue, only happy, all the days of your life". Flittle said as she held her hands out to Aurora, before the blue butterflies flying around her flew toward the baby with pixie dust.

One of the butterflies landed on Aurora's nose, making her sneeze from the feeling. Leah watched with an amused smile on her face, while Stefan watched with narrow eyes. Flittle made way for Thistlewit, who flew down closer to the baby. "Sweet baby, my wish for is that you find…" Thistlewit began as she was about to blow magic flowers on Aurora, only to be cut off by the wind howling.

Everyone widened their eyes as the candles' fire died down from the wind, the pixies were being pushed back from the howling wind and the steel square gothic looking candelabra was shaking from the powerful gust. Even the people were crying out in surprise from the howling wind.

King Stefan and Queen Leah looked at the entrance, getting everyone else to look there as well. An all too known shadow came into view, the shadow of the Mistress of Evil as she entered the castle. Soon she came into view and walked through the crowds of people, heading towards the man who betrayed her and his family. Adults pulled their children closer to them in fear of the Mistress of Evil taking them away from them. The only sound was the taping of Maleficent's scepter against the ground as she walked.

"Maleficent!" The three pixies whispered in fear, holding each other's hands before Knotgrass flew closer to baby Aurora. Out of everyone, it was Stefan who looked afraid the most as he knew why his old friend had come. Young Maleficent came closer to Stefan and his family, revealing herself to be wearing the same dress that her present self was wearing, ignoring the mumbling of the people around her. Soon, Young Maleficent stopped walk and had a bit of an evil smile on her face. "Well, well". Young Maleficent said her famous catchphrase, before she began chuckling.

"Talk about a dramatic entrance". Dude commented, a bit impressed and scared by Young Maleficent's entrance to the christening. Young Diaval flew in, cawing as he flew around his mistress as she walked closer to the man who betrayed her. "What a glittering assemblage, King Stefan". Young Maleficent greeted her former friend as she stopped a little bit away from Stefan and Leah with Diaval landing on the top of her scepter, ignoring everyone's eyes on them.

Leah exhaled in fear as she looked at her husband for a moment, before looking back at Maleficent's younger self. Young Maleficent turned her attention to Young Diaval as she began to stroke his feathers before looking at the crowd of people. "Royalty, nobility, the gentry, and…" The young Mistress of Evil began as she looked at Knotgrass, Thistlewit and Flittle and laughed, while Young Diaval cawed.

"How quaint". Young Maleficent stated as the three pixies looked at her with either narrowed eyes, a frown or a look of fear. "Even the rabble". The Mistress of Evil's younger self finished as she looked at Knotgrass, Thistlewit and Flittle for another moment, before looking back at her former friend as he inhaled and out.

"I must say I really felt quiet distressed at not receiving an invitation". Young Maleficent said out loud, her eyes locked on Stefan. "Why'd you say that?" Evie questioned the present Mistress of Evil, wondering why she said that of all things as was something her world's Maleficent said at their Aurora's christening. "I said that in mockery of our history together". The Dark Fey answered the daughter of Evil Queen, her eyes locked on her past self with Mal watching just as much as her mother.

"You're not welcome here". King Stefan told his former friend, making Mal growl at him with her eyes glowing green. Young Maleficent started mock whimpering at her former friend's words. "Oh". Maleficent's younger self said as she looked down for a moment, before she began laughing with a wide grin on her face.

"Oh, dear. What an awkward situation". Young Maleficent said as she looked over her left shoulder, getting Queen Leah's attention at how she seemed perfectly alright with what her husband said. "You're not offended?" The queen questioned, missing Maleficent smile in an evil way. "Why, no". The Mistress of Evil's younger self answered as she looked back at the king and queen. Leah took a moment a moment to look at her husband again, before looking back at the Dark Fey.

"And to show I bear no ill will, I, too, shall bestow a gift on the child". The Mistress of Evil's younger self told the king and queen, smiling evilly as she spoke slowly. "No! We don't want your gift!" The human king exclaimed as he and his wife shot up from their thrones with Stefan looking for a weapon on him, but didn't find any.

Young Maleficent began to walk towards baby Aurora, keeping her eyes on Stefan for a few moments to see the panic on his face. "Stay away from the princess!" Knotgrass exclaimed as Young Diaval flew off his mistress' scepter and onto the top of the bassinet, while Young Maleficent turned her eyes towards the baby. "Yes, stay away!" Thistlewit cried out, finally getting the Mistress of Evil's younger self's attention as she looked at Knotgrass, Thistlewit and Flittle.

With a swipe of her right hand, the three pixies were sent flying away, making the crowd of people gasp in surprise as Knotgrass, Thistlewit and Flittle slammed into an open chest, before they fell in with the chest closing in on them, landing on one of Knotgrass' hands, before she pulled it in.

With the three pixies out of the way, Young Maleficent turned her attention to the baby and looked at her. "Hmm…" Young Maleficent hummed as she looked at baby Aurora, who was strangely looking at her as well and didn't seem to be afraid. "Mmm". The wingless Dark Fey hummed to herself, before she began to hold her right hand out to the baby. "Listen well, all of you". Young Maleficent began as she waved her right hand's fingers with green magic appearing around her hand with whispering voices mimicking her.

Knotgrass, Thistlewit and Flittle managed to push the chest enough for them to watch, but not to interfere. "The princess shall indeed grow in grace and beauty, beloved by all who meet her". Young Maleficent chanted with her eyes slightly glowing green as more green magic appeared from her hand and was absorbed into baby Aurora, who was watching silently.

"That's a lovely gift". Leah said in an frightened tone, afraid for her daughter. Young Maleficent then looked at Diaval, who looked afraid as well. "Don't do this". The human king pleaded, but Young Maleficent just held up her right hand's index finger to her lips, making him more afraid than before. The Mistress of Evil then looked over his right shoulder, getting everyone watching the illusion, except Present Maleficent and Diaval, to turn around to look at what see was looking at, before they widened their eyes in horror.

Not too far away was a wooden spinning wheel with a spindle. "Oh no!" Jane whispered in fear, having a good idea about what's about to happen. "Just like our world". Beast commented, having no idea how wrong he was. Mal was silent as she watched, keeping her thoughts to herself until she's seen everything.

Young Maleficent walked away from the bassinet and back in front of the king and queen. "But…" The young Mistress of Evil began as she began to spread her arms with green magic coming out of her hands, even her left hand that she was using to hold her scepter. "…before the sun sets on her 16th birthday, she will prick her finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel and fall into a sleep like death, a sleep from which she will never awaken". Young Maleficent continued as she was covered in green magic, giving her a rather scary appearance as she chanted with her eyes directed at Stefan's scared face.

What Maleficent's younger self said made everyone widen their eyes at something unexpected, having expected her to say something else. "You cursed Aurora to sleep forever?" Ben questioned Maleficent in surprise, getting the Dark Fey to look at him with slightly wider eyes than before. "Didn't my counterpart do the same?" The Mistress of Evil questioned in return as she looked down at her lizard counterpart, who was watching the events silently.

"Well… not exactly. She did curse Aurora, but the curse was meant to kill her, not put her into a sleep like death". The King of Auradon told the Dark Fey, getting her and Diaval to widen their eyes at him, before they looked back at the lizard. "She's even more rotten than I thought. I had every intention of getting revenge, but I wouldn't curse a child to die". Dark Fey Maleficent said with narrowed eyes directed at her counterpart, before going back to watching the illusion.

"Maleficent, please don't do this, I'm begging you". Stefan begged the fairy he betrayed so long ago, getting Young Maleficent to stop chanting and to look at him. "I like you begging". The young Dark Fey stated as the green magic continued to surround her. "Do it again". She told the man who took her wings away from her.

Stefan had a pleading expression on his face as he stared at Young Maleficent, who lowered her face as she gave him a serious look, telling him that she meant what she said. Left with no choice, Stefan got down to one knee with Leah watching her husband. Stefan looked at the corner of his eyes at a couple of old men watching them, before he looked back at the Queen of the Moors. "I beg you". The human king begged his old friend, who just stared at him with slightly glowing green eyes.

"All right". Young Maleficent with her lips slightly lifting up, getting Stefan to look a bit relived. "The princess can be woken from her death sleep, but only by, true love's kiss". The young Dark Fey continued her chant as Stefan regained his fear at realizing Maleficent's trick, while everyone else was surprised at her words.

"Your curse could be lifted by true love's kiss?" Belle questioned the Mistress of Evil in surprise, getting Maleficent to look at the former Queen of Auradon. "Yes, I made it that way because I believed that nothing would be able to save her if I set the curse that way". The former Queen of the Moors answered the former Queen of Auradon, getting everyone to look at her in surprise.

"What do you mean 'nothing would be able to save her?' You setting the curse that way must mean that you weren't that evil". Mal said to her mother, completely missing the point of why Maleficent set the curse that way. "That's not why Mistress set the curse like that, Young Mistress". Diaval told the purple haired teenager, getting Mal and everyone else to frown in confusion.

Maleficent turned to look at her daughter in the eyes as she explained why the curse was chanted that way. "I cursed her that way because I thought there was no such thing". The Dark Fey told her daughter, getting Mal and everyone else to widen their eyes in surprise at what she said. "You all saw how Stefan, a man I trusted and loved betrayed me and took my wings away from me. Because of that, I locked my heart away. I used his so called 'gift' against him". The former Queen of the Moors explained to everyone as she turned away from her daughter, who slowly began to understand why her mother cursed Aurora that way.

"C-come on. True love does exist. You said that Aurora is alright in your world, that means true love's kiss really does exist". Evie said to the former Queen of the Moors with an uneasy smile, getting Maleficent to look at her with slightly narrowed eyes. "The 'true love' that saved Aurora isn't the 'true love' that you're thinking about". Maleficent told the daughter of Fairy Godmother, getting everyone except Diaval to frown in confusion. "Continue to watch and you'll eventually see". The human form raven told everyone as he and his mistress went back to watching the illusion. Mal and the others stared at the two for a moment, before going back to watching the illusion.

Young Maleficent turned around to face the crowd of people watching as her magic spread even more. "This curse will last till the end of time!" The younger Mistress of Evil called out as her magic released a wave of energy. "No power on Earth can change it". Young Maleficent finished as her curse was complete. Her magic spread out across the people, making them scream in fear as most of them collapsed to the ground. Young Maleficent let out a bone chilling cackle as she began to run out of the castle, making everyone watching shiver.

"I gotta say that's bone chilling". Jay commented as he was hugging himself and was shivering. The illusion around them changed to reveal the Moors with Young Maleficent seated on her throne with a smirk on her face with raven form Young Diaval right next to her.

The illusion around them changed once more to reveal them back at Stefan's throne room with the human king barking orders at a soldier standing in front of him. "Stefan ordered his men to seize every spinning wheel in the kingdom". Diaval began to explain as the illusion changed to reveal show the outside world with soldiers riding on horses and some of them riding covered carriages.

"The wheels were broken and burned, that they might never be used, and thrown into the deepest dungeon in the castle". The human form raven continued as the illusion changed to a dungeon filled with spinning wheels that were being burnt by soldiers. The illusion changed to reveal them back in the throne room, where Stefan was giving his sleeping daughter to Knotgrass, Thistlewit and Flittle.

"Secretly, he entrusted the safety of Aurora to Knotgrass, Thistlewit and Flittlew, who would take her to a remote hideaway for 16 years and a day". Diaval continued as they all watched Stefan hand the wrapped up sleeping baby to the three pixies. The illusion changed to outside the castle, where two dark horses were pulling a carriage away from the castle and into the forest. The sounds of a crying baby were heard from within the carriage.

The illusion changed to reveal a room full of candles, a fireplace, a table with 11 chairs and a window. Stefan was standing in front of the window, looking out while wearing a sort of armor. "Stefan shut himself from the outside world, while his soldiers rode far and wide to hunt my Mistress down". The human form raven continued as the illusion changed once more to show the outside of the castle, where a platoon of knights were riding off on their horses.

"But I created a wall of my own". Maleficent interrupted, getting everyone to look at her as the illusion changed once more. The illusion changed to show Young Maleficent standing at the gateway between the Moors and the kingdom, her hands spread out with green magic coming out. Thorns erupted out of the ground in front of the Mistress of Evil's younger self and formed a wall. Everyone, except Maleficent and Diaval, widened their eyes as they witnessed the Mistress of Evil's powers once more. "This wall of thorns was created so that the Moors would never suffer the touch of any human". The Dark Fey told the people of Auradon as she looked up at the wall of thorns that she brought down not too long ago.

"I reveled quite a bit from the sorrow my curse had brought". The Mistress of Evil confessed as the illusion changed once more to reveal the Moors, where Young Maleficent was at her throne, laughing with Young Diaval watching his mistress not too far away. Mal had a concerned frown at seeing this, before she turned to look at her mother and saw her still watching the illusion.

The illusion changed once more to a bright sunny day, where everyone saw the same carriage from before being pulled by the dark horses. "Meanwhile, those three imbeciles began their charge to raise Aurora in a snug little cottage in the woods". Maleficent narroated as the carriage arrived at a little cottage.

"Oh, no! Is this it? Looks dreadful". Flittle said with a bit of dread on her face, sitting at the front of the carriage with Knotgrass and Thistlewit. Knotgrass had the reins in hand, indicating that she was the one driving the carriage. "Come on". The red pixie said as she threw the reins down and started flapping her wings.

A few seconds later, Knotgrass, Thistlewit and Flittle were struggling to carry a baby basket, which a cooing baby Aurora was resting in. "Oh, we need a smaller… Ooh! Baby!" Thistlewit remarked as she, Flittle and Knotgrass almost dropped the basket with Aurora now crying. "Or bigger bodies". The blue pixie commented as she and the other two regained their grip with Thistlewit now carrying it sideways.

"No, what we need is a proper disguise". Knotgrass corrected the two, getting Flittle and Thistlewit to look at her. "What do you mean?" The green pixie as she, Flittle and Knotgrass placed the baby basket down on top of a barrel. "Well, we have to blend it, don't we? We have to be big enough to look after this baby". The red pixie explained for her two fellow pixies to better understand.

"So, gather around, ladies". Knotgrass said as the three pixies gathered around each other. "Get ready. One, two, three, grow!" The leader of the three exclaimed, before the three pixies were covered in pixie dust that covered them from view. After a moment, the pixie dust cleared to reveal three adult women in the pixies' place, all of them wearing different clothing to each other.

Everyone, except Maleficent and Diaval, widened their eyes in surprise, while Knotgrass, Thistlewit and Flittle laughed as they checked themselves out. "Well, that's worked quite well. That's very nice". Human form Knotgrass happily said as Thistlewit twirled around to look at her dress, while Flittle checked her hair out with the blue butterflies still flying around her face.

"Now, there will be no questions asked. We are no longer fairies. We are three peasant women raising our orphan child in the woods". The leader of the three pixies told Flittle and Thistlewit, who was looking down at the sad looking baby with the blue human form pixie holding her right hand out to Aurora. "So, uh, no more flying". Knotgrass told the two as she began to head into the cottage, immediately getting Flittle and Thistlewit's attention as they chased after her.

"No flying?" The human form Thistlewit questioned her fellow pixie in anger. "No, no, and no magic". Human form Knotgrass told the two with all three of them ignoring the crying Aurora as they made their way to the cottage, much to the surprise of everyone watching, except for Maleficent and Diaval.

"No magic?" The green human form pixie questioned in anger. "Yes, you heard". The red human form pixie answered her friend as she stopped in front of the door to the cottage. "It's in the middle of nowhere". The blue human form pixie stated, but Knotgrass paid no attention to her. "At least no one will find us here". Thistlewit said as she, Flittle and Knotgrass entered the cottage, leaving baby Aurora alone outside, much to the disbelief of everyone watching, except for Maleficent and Diaval.

"Did they just really leave a defenseless baby outside, while they argued?" Mal questioned in a disbelief tone at what she just witnessed. "Yes they did. And trust me; this is only the beginning of those three making amateur mistakes". Maleficent told her daughter with a shake of her head, still finding it hard to believe at how those three were so terrible at looking after a child.

"Now I'm not experienced at being a babysitter, but I know that's just terrible of someone in charge of a baby". Carlos commented with wide eyes at what he just witnessed, keeping himself comfortable on the chair. "You can say that again, Carlos". The daughter of Fairy Godmother stated, agreeing with her boyfriend at how terrible the three pixies were doing at looking after a baby.

Suddenly, everyone saw the raven form of Young Diaval perched itself in the baby basket that Baby Aurora was on. Everyone widened their eyes in surprise as baby Aurora continued to cry, while Young Diaval cawed. "What the!? Did Diaval really find Aurora and the others on the very first day?" Fairy Godmother questioned in shock at seeing another difference of the two worlds.

"Judging by your words, my counterpart and Diablo didn't find Aurora and those three imbeciles very quickly, am I incorrect?" The Mistress of Evil questioned with an eyebrow raised, while Diaval had a smug and proud look on his face at hearing he did a better job than his counterpart. "Yup. Diablo only managed to find Aurora on the last day before the curse". Mal told her mother, getting Diaval to grow an even bigger smug look, only for Maleficent to wipe it off his face by smacking the back of his head with right wing.

The sound of the cottage's door opening got Young Diaval's attention as he looked to see the door opening, before he took off flying. The door opened to reveal Thistlewit, who began running to the crying Aurora. "There you are. Why are you always hiding?" The human formed pixie questioned as she picked up the baby basket. "Come on. There you go". Thistlewit said as she began walking back into the cottage, carrying the baby basket in her hands.

"What happened next?" Evie asked in an eager voice, getting excited as she continued to watch the illusion. "What do you think? I went to see Aurora". The Mistress of Evil answered the daughter of Evil Queen as the illusion changed, but it still showed the cottage. From the forest came Young Maleficent, only wearing a different dress than before with raven form Diaval flying behind her.

Younger Diaval flew to the cottage, while Maleficent's younger self walked to it. The sounds of baby Aurora crying was heard from an open window, which Younger Maleficent walked towards it, while Young Diaval perched himself onto a flower. The illusion changed to the inside of the cottage, where they saw baby Aurora still in the baby basket crying. However, to the surprise of everyone, except Maleficent and Diaval, the baby stopped crying upon seeing the Mistress of Evil's younger self standing outside the open window, looking at her closely, taking in every detail that she couldn't before.

"Hmm. It's so ugly, you could almost feel sorry for it". The young Mistress of Evil said out loud, getting Mal, Evie, Jane, Lonnie, Fairy Godmother and Belle to give a small glare at the present Maleficent at what she said, but she paid no attention to them. The six females went back to watching the illusion, before they, Ben, Carlos, Jay, Doug and Adam widened their eyes as they saw baby Aurora let out a happy smile as she looked at Young Maleficent.

She must have not liked the look that the baby was giving her cause Young Maleficent raised her right hand, gave a threatening look and snarled at Aurora. The baby stared at her for a moment, before she went back to giving the young Mistress of Evil a happy smile. "Not. One. Word". Maleficent told everyone in a sharp tone, who were all giving her an amused look at her failed attempt to scare a baby.

Young Maleficent lost her threatening look, dropped her right hand to the side and stared at Aurora. "I hate you. Beasty". Young Maleficent said to the happy looking baby, getting Jay to widen his eyes at what she said. Young Maleficent's eyes shifted upon hearing the sounds of clattering and the three pixies' voices. The young Dark Fey turned around and began walking away from the cottage, while Young Diaval gave a caw, before he looked back into the cottage for a moment, then followed after his mistress.

"Those three imbeciles were absolutely terrible at their job". The Mistress of Evil told her audience as the illusion changed, but they were still at the cottage, only outside now. Everyone saw baby Aurora crying out on a baby basket. Thistlewit was waving a flower at the baby, Flittle was watching Aurora cry out and Knotgrass was digging nearby. There were clothes hung up to dry, having been put there by Flittle, a goat munching on the grass and a chicken nearby.

"Why is she crying?" The blue pixie questioned as she placed her hands on her hips, while Thistlewit stopped waving the flower around. "I think she might be hungry". The yellow haired human form pixie answered in an uncertain voice to her friend. "Then feed her!" Knotgrass told the two in an annoyed voice, taking a moment to stop her digging, before she went back to it.

"Oh". Flittle said in realization, before she rushed over to a basket full of carrots. What the three didn't notice was that raven form Young Diaval was watching them from a tree branch up above. "Hungry baby". Thistlewit sang to the baby as Flittle held up a bunch of carrots, before she walked over to the human baby with a smile. "She… can't be serious, can she?" Fairy Godmother questioned in a disbelief tone at seeing how clueless the pixie was. Her answer was Maleficent's humming as she watched the illusion.

"There you are". The blue pixie in disguise said as she placed the carrots on the baby basket in front of Aurora, who was still crying. "There you go". Thistlewit commented with a smile as her friend placed the second bunch of carrots down on the baby basket. Up above, even Young Diaval had a disbelief look at seeing the pixies be so clueless, before he gave a caw that looked like a sigh.

Aurora continued to cry, only louder than before, causing everyone to cover their ears from the loud noise. The illusion changed to show Young Maleficent behind a tree. She was sitting down with her back against the tree with the scepter lying against it on her left. She had her hands over her ears to block out the loud crying from the baby girl. Young Maleficent hissed in annoyance with her eyes closed, before she opened them to reveal the annoyed look. "It's going to starve with those three looking after it". The young Mistress of Evil growled in anger, getting the trapped lizard form of the evil Maleficent to chuckle.

"No kidding. How terrible were they?" Lonnie questioned with a frown on her face. "Worse than you can imagine". Fey Maleficent answered the daughter of Mulan, getting everyone to gulp. The illusion changed once more, still showing the cottage, only now it was dark. However, the sounds of Aurora crying were still heard from within. The illusion changed to reveal them inside the cottage, where they saw the three human form pixies sleeping on a bed with different sorts of things covering their ears to block out the crying baby.

The people of Auradon looked at the sleeping pixies in disbelief that they were sleeping when Aurora was crying. "These three are the worse baby sitters I've ever seen!" Mal exclaimed in disgust, now seeing why her mother referred to them as 'imbeciles'. "How can they just sleep when a baby is crying?" Doug questioned in disbelief, unable to believe that the three caretakers of Aurora were so different compared to their versions.

"That just shows how incompetent they are. Luckily, a 'pretty bird' wouldn't allow this". Maleficent said with a grin as she turned to look at Diaval, who looked away with a look of embarrassment, while everyone looked at them in confusion. The sounds of flapping wings caught everyone's attention as they looked at the window to see Young Diaval perch himself on the window bench, only he had a rose, filled with dew and petals, in his mouth. The raven checked to see if the three pixies were asleep, before he flew over to the crying Aurora and landed on the bench besides her.

The raven gave a caw, getting Aurora's attention as she stopped crying and cooed upon seeing Diaval. Young Diaval hopped over to Aurora and lowered the flower to her mouth, which she took hold of and began sucking the water out. The baby continued to stare at Young Diaval as she sucked the flower, while he cawed and gently rocked the cradle. "Aww". Mal, Evie, Jane, Lonnie, Belle and Fairy Godmother all awed at the sight, much to Diaval's further embarrassment, while Maleficent and the boys chuckled.

The illusion changed once more, but still showed the cottage. It was morning and there were no sounds of Aurora crying. The illusion changed to show the inside and showed the three pixies around a table. Knotgrass and Flittle were playing a board game, while Thistlewit was knitting, but was watching her two friends. The blue fair looked away from the game for a moment, before she looked back and gasped upon seeing Knotgrass reach out to grab hold of something.

Flittle placed her left hand on Knotgrass's right hand, stopping her and getting the red pixie to look at her. "What?" Knotgrass questioned her fellow Pixie, her eyes fixed on Flittle's hand atop hers. "You're cheating". Flittle answered with a small glare directed at her friend. "I saw that!" Thistlewit remarked, looking at Knotgrass as Flittle began rearranging the game. "We're starting again". The blue pixie told her friend in anger, restarting the board game.

"Suit yourself". Knotgrass replied to Flittle, before she began rearranging her side of the board. "Greedy, bloated goat!" Flittle exclaimed in anger, causing Thistlewit, Ben, Carlos, Jay, Evie, Jane, Lonnie, Doug, Adam, Belle and Fairy Godmother to laugh, while Maleficent, Diaval and Mal were not amused. "Bloated goat". Thistlewit laughed out as she pointed to the red pixie, while Flittle looked amused now as well, but Knotgrass was not.

Suddenly, raindrops came out from nowhere and rained down on Knotgrass, getting her to look up in surprise. Just as quickly as it appeared, the rain stopped with Knotgrass looking up and down for a few moments, before she looked back at Flittle. "Stop doing that". The red pixie told her fellow fairy, getting Flittle and Thistlewit to stop laughing and look at her in confusion.

Flittle looked up for a moment, before she looked back at Knotgrass. "I'm not doing anything". The blue pixie replied to the red pixie, before more raindrops came down on Knotgrass. Like before, they stopped suddenly, but this time, Knotgrass turned to look at Thislewit. "Well, someone is". Knotgrass accused in an annoyed done, getting Thislewit to look taken back by her accusing her.

"It's not me". Thislewit told her two friends, turning to look at Flittle. "You two are having a go at me, and I will not tolerate…" Knotgrass said as she pointed to her two fellow pixies, before she was cut off by more rain falling on her, this time making Mal chuckle in amusement with her arms crossed. Now a bit more enraged than before, Knotgrass shot up from her chair and slammed her hands on the table. "Stop it!" The red pixie demanded in anger, which Thistlewit and Flittle stared at her in silent. Thinking that they got the message, Knotgrass sat back down on her chair.

Knotgrass and Flittle began their new game, while Thislewit continued knitting. However, more rain came out and rained on Knotgrass, making her gasp, while Thislewit and Flittle laughed in amusement. "Why…?" The red pixie questioned why this was happening to her, but it appeared she was not the only one to suffer. Rain appeared out of the ceiling and rained down on Thislewit and Flittle, making them and Knotgrass shriek. Mal began laughing at the sight, while Maleficent just smiled in amusement.

Thunder rumbled from within the house, meaning it was a thunderstorm that the rain was coming from. Thislewit grabbed a saucepan to cover her head, while Knotgrass grabbed the board. "No! Oh!" Knotgrass exclaimed as she held the board over her head, before she shot an accusing glare at Flittle. "This is all your fault!" The pixie accused Flittle, before she and the two other pixies continued shrieking.

The illusion changed to outside the cottage, where the sounds of thunder rumbling were heard. Everyone saw a little bit away from the cottage was Young Maleficent and Diaval, where the young Mistress of Evil was waving yellow magic to the house, revealing to be the culprit of the thunderstorm.

Mal laughed even more at seeing this, Maleficent had an amused smirk and Young Maleficent had a grin on her face. "Oh…" Young Maleficent said as she waved more of her yellow magic to the cottage, before chuckling in amusement.

Young Maleficent ceased waving her magic and hummed in amusement, before she turned to look at Young Diaval, who had a not so amused look on his face. "Oh, come on. That's funny". The young Mistress of Evil said to her 'friend', before going back to watching the cottage. "She's right, that was funny". Mal commented in amusement, getting Maleficent to look at her with a proud smile on her face. "That's my girl". The Mistress of Evil said as she wrapped her left wing around Mal and brought her closer to her. The others didn't look amused and shot the two unimpressed looks from laughing at Young Maleficent's prank, but Diaval had a casual look, knowing full well that his mistress's sense of human was different.

The illusion changed again, this time revealing them in a dining room. In the dining room was a couple of soldiers facing Stefan as he gave them orders. At the sight of the false human king, Mal growled a bit with her eyes glowing green. "Days passed and Stefan became more consumed with revenge towards me". The Mistress of Evil narrated to the audience, getting Mal to let out a small growl.

The illusion changed to reveal outside at the gateway to the Moors, only thousands of soldiers, some riding atop horses, carrying torches and catapults were in front of the wall of thorns. "Burn it all down!" A dark haired human, probably the captain, ordered his men. "Yes, sir!" A soldier replied to the captain, before he ran towards one of the catapults' unlit fireballs.

"Flame!" One of the soldiers called out as they lit the fireballs up with their torches. Mal grew a worried look on her face and clapped her hands together, but Maleficent placed her right hand on her daughter's shoulder. Mal looked at her mother and saw her reassuring smile, getting the purple haired girl to smile at the Dark Fey. "Release!" The captain called out as he brought his right arm down, getting Mal to turn back to watch the illusion.

The catapults fired the fireballs towards the air, which rained down on the wall of thorns and set them up aflame. The soldiers continued to fire more fireballs towards the wall of thorns, setting it more on fire than before. The soldiers cheered at seeing the wall of thorns burn in front of them, getting Mal to inhale in concern for the Moors upon seeing the wall burn.

However, the soldiers' cheering died down when the burning thorns began moving by itself. The illusion changed to show the other side of the wall, where Young Maleficent was using her green magic to control the thorns. The illusion changed back to the other side as the flaming thorns lifted themselves up, frightening the soldiers and their captain.

Then, the destruction began.

The flaming thorns began slamming onto the catapults and soldiers, causing them to scream as they run away for their lives. The people of Auradon watched in stunned silence as some of the soldiers were struck by the flaming thorns. The illusion changed back to show Young Maleficent watching the carnage without even flinching. The illusion change sides to show the carnage continuing with one flaming thorn grabbing one soldier, before throwing him into the air. The night sky was filled with the cries of frightened men and the evil laughter of Young Maleficent.

Ben, Carlos, Jay, Evie, Jane, Doug, Fairy Godmother, Belle and Adam all watched the illusion in disbelief, while Mal looked relived that Stefan's man didn't get through the wall. The illusion changed back to show the same room in the castle from before with Stefan facing the fireplace. "You failed me". The false king said as he slowly turned around to look at the captain.

"The wall cannot be burned. It is indestructible". The captain, who had many burnt scratches on his face along with his men behind him, said to his king in a defeated voice, as if he's accepted defeat. Stefan walked up to the captain, stopping in front of him, before he backhanded him with his right hand, causing the people of Auradon to gasp at what he did to his own solider.

"Nothing is indestructible!" Stefan exclaimed in pure rage, before he began to walk over to the table with the mini version of the castle on it. "Not the wall! Not Maleficent! Not even her curse!" The false king continued in rage as he knocked cups off the table, before he brought out a dagger and stabbed it into the table. Mal looked a little satisfied upon seeing Stefan frustrated, believing he deserved it for what he did to her mother.

The false king took a few deep breaths to calm down with everyone in the room watching him. Stefan looked down at his dagger, before he picked it up from the table with his right hand and inspected it closely. He placed his left hand's fingers on the blade and inspected it greatly from every angle. He lifted his head up and looked at his servants. "Bring me the iron workers". The false king commanded his servants, getting Mal to gasp in horror upon hearing her mother's weakness.

"Oh no". The purple haired girl said in concern, getting Maleficent to look at her teenage daughter and gentle squeezed Mal's shoulder in a reassuring way. "Don't worry, that won't help him". The Mistress of Evil reassured Mal, getting her worried daughter to look at her mother and saw her reassuring look, lifting the purple haired girl's spirit a little bit.

The illusion changed once more, showing a field on a cliff. Knotgrass, Flittle and Thislewit were sitting down together, having a picnic on a mat. There was a young girl that everyone recognized as Azure, who was now a toddler, playing with a butterfly. Everyone saw that not too far away on the other side of the cliff, Young Maleficent was lying down on a tree branch, eating barriers from the tree as she watched them, while Young Diaval was perched on a tree branch.

However, it appeared that Young Maleficent became board. She held her left hand in front of her with her thumb and index finger together. Yellow magic appeared between her fingers, before she brought her hand down. Right at that moment, Flittle, who was about to eat a cupcake, had her hair pulled to the side. "Ow!" The blue pixie exclaimed in pain, before she looked at Thislewit. She grabbed a bit of her hair and pulled it, before she let go. "Ow!" The green pixie exclaimed, before she grabbed Flittle's hair and pulled on it. "Ow!" The blue pixie said in pain again.

Young Maleficent wasn't done yet as yellow magic reappeared between her left hand's fingers, before she pulled it down. At that moment, Knotgrass's hat was flung of her, pushing her a bit from the surprise. The red pixie looked at Thislewit, then at Flittle, before she groaned in anger. "You!" Knotgrass exclaimed as she and Flittle tackled Thislewit to the group and began squabbling with each other.

Maleficent, Mal and the younger Mistress of Evil smiled in amusement at seeing the pixies fight among each other. Toddler Aurora was trying to catch a butterfly in her hands, but was failing with the insect flying away. Aurora began chasing after the butterfly, wanting to catch it greatly and paid no attention to her fighting aunts. Young Maleficent and Diaval were the only ones to notice Aurora running towards the edge of the cliff.

"Oh, look. The little beast is about to fall off the cliff". The young Mistress of Evil said with no emotion in her voice, getting the people of Auradon to gasp in horror. The lizard form of the evil Maleficent was the only one that looked excited as she was leaning against the container's wall.

Aurora, having no idea how much danger she was in, kept chasing after the butterfly towards the cliff. "Please tell me that you didn't just watch as a child fell down a cliff?" Jane questioned the Mistress of Evil in concern for the young Aurora. "Calm down and watch". Maleficent replied to Fairy Godmother's daughter without looking at her, her eyes glued on the illusion. Jane still looked worried, but she looked back at the illusion and watched. Young Diaval started to get worried as he began cawing at his mistress, telling her to do something. Aurora kept chasing after the butterfly and was getting closer to the edge, before eventually falling off the cliff.

The people of Aurora gasped in horror as Aurora screamed out as she fell. However, Young Maleficent closed her eyes and focused her magic, before she reopened them. Branches hanging on the cliff caught the falling Aurora safely, who tried to reach out to the butterfly, before bringing her back to the cliff. Everyone watching gasped in relief, while Mal smiled at her mother, who returned it. The lizard form of the evil Maleficent looked disappointed at seeing her counterpart's younger self save Aurora.

Young Diaval had covered his face with his right wing, before he lifted his head and saw that Aurora was safe. He looked at his mistress, who looked at him, and gave her a thankful caw. "What?" The young Mistress of Evil questioned her old friend, who just gave her a caw with his head tilted. Young Maleficent looked back at the cliff towards Aurora and saw her walking back to the three disguised pixies, before she leaned her head back and sighed with her eyes closed.

"What even made you want to rescue her?" Ben questioned the Mistress of Evil with a relived smile, both at seeing Aurora safe and at seeing Maleficent do a heroic act. Maleficent didn't answer the king of Auradon immediately, her eyes glued on the young version of her precious beastie with longing eyes. "To be honest, I didn't know what possessed me to save her". The Dark Fey confessed, getting everyone to look at her in confusion at her words. Mal saw the longing look in her mother's eyes, and felt envious that they were directed at Aurora.

"I acted before I could even think. After I saved her, I asked myself what did I just do? Did I save her to further torment Stefan? Did I do it to shut Diaval up? Did I think it was a waste for the curse not to be fulfilled? I wouldn't know the answer until later". Maleficent told everyone before she grew a found smile as she remembered when she began to care for Aurora. Diaval smiled as he remembered what happened next, the first official meeting of Maleficent and the girl that would move her stone heart.

The illusion around everyone changed once more, showing them above the cottage. Everyone looked down and saw Aurora running out of the cottage with an excited look on her face. The illusion changed once more to show Young Maleficent, wearing the same dress when she first visited Aurora, healing a scrapped tree with her magic. However, she felt a presence behind her, getting the younger version of the Mistress of Evil to slowly look over to her left and saw Aurora behind her.

"Hello". The young girl greeted the Dark Fey with a happy smile on her face. The people of Auradon had wide eyes of shock at seeing this meeting, having never expected something like this. Even the evil Maleficent had a look of disbelief at seeing her counterpart meet Sleeping Beauty so much sooner than her. "Well, uhh, this is unexpected". Doug commented with wide eyes, having not expected one of the differences between the two worlds to be when Maleficent and Aurora met.

"I had not meant to meet Aurora so soon, but she found me when I wasn't looking. That's why we met so soon, but I'm honestly happy that we did". Maleficent told the dwarf son without looking at him, her eyes directed on the illusion with a happy smile. Diaval looked up at his younger self, who was perched on a tree and scratching his right wing, before he took notice of Aurora looking at his mistress and gave a small caw.

Young Maleficent fully turned around to face the young child and looked down at Aurora, who was still looking at her with a happy smile. The two stared at each other for a moment, before Young Maleficent broke the silence. "Go away. Go". The young Mistress of Evil told the child as she waved her left hand away, telling Aurora to go away. Aurora didn't listen and instead began walking closer to the Dark Fey. "Go away". Young Maleficent repeated, but Aurora still didn't listen and instead did something that took the people of Auradon back, even the evil Maleficent.

Aurora wrapped her arms around Young Maleficent's waist and gave her a hug, making the younger version of the Mistress of Evil give a small cry of surprise. Mal, Ben, Carlos, Jay, Evie, Doug, Jane, Fairy Godmother, Adam and Belle had wide eyes on disbelief and gaping mouths at seeing the child hug perhaps the most terrifying woman they've ever seen in their lives. Evil Maleficent gagged at the sight of her counterpart and nemesis. Maleficent and Diaval both smiled fondly at the memory, this one being one of their favorites.

"I don't like children". The young version of the Mistress of Evil told the child, but Aurora kept hugging her. Young Diaval was watching the scene of his mistress and Aurora closely, even leaning his head down a bit to get a closer look. He gave a small caw, getting Young Maleficent to look up at him. "Up, up". Aurora said to the wingless fairy, getting Young Maleficent to look down at her.

She looked away as she crouched down, picked Aurora up under her arms and held her up to her face. The young child placed her hands on Young Maleficent's horns, getting her to blink at her actions. After keeping her hands there for a bit, Aurora let go of Young Maleficent's horns and played with her dress's collar for a bit, before she hummed a bit.

Young Maleficent slowly placed Aurora down on the ground in the opposite direction. "Mmm. Go along. Go, go, go". The young Mistress of Evil told the child as Aurora began walking away back to the cottage. Young Diaval gave a caw as he watched the young girl walk back to the cottage. Young Maleficent watched the child of the man that betrayed her walk away with a watchful look, but felt something she hasn't felt for a long time. She felt… at peace after what just happened between her and the child.

"After this day, Diaval and I began to raise Aurora in secret". Maleficent told everyone with a smile as the illusion around them changed once more. The illusion showed the cottage again with them above it. They all saw Young Diaval fly towards the cottage, before he stopped in front of an open window. "Just as I said, Aurora did grow in grace and beauty". The Mistress of Evil added as the illusion changed to show them inside the cottage, where they saw an older, but still young, Aurora.

The soon to be Sleeping Beauty had been reading a book, but Diaval's caw got her attention. She looked up and gasped in delight upon seeing Young Diaval. She put her book down and rushed out to play with him. The illusion changed to outside the cottage, where they saw an older version of the child Aurora playing with Young Diaval around the table outside the cottage. Aurora looked happy as she played with Diaval, circling around him with the raven doing the same.

After playing for a bit, Young Diaval stopped in front of Aurora, who ran her fingers down his feathers. "Pretty bird". Aurora said happily as Young Diaval cawed in delight from feeling her soft hands on his feathers. Mal, Ben, Carlos, Jay, Evie, Doug, Jane, Fairy Godmother, Adam and Belle had wide eyes at seeing Aurora play with Young Diaval, while the present human form raven was smiling fondly upon remember all the times he played with Aurora.

The illusion changed once again, now revealing Aurora sitting on a cliff, underneath a cherry blossom tree, looking off towards Stefan's castle. "She lived a happy, joyful life, far away from the lofty palace where she was born". Maleficent narrated with a found smile as a familiar caw was heard, getting Aurora's attention as she looked at where she heard the cry of her 'pretty bird' with a happy smile.

The blond young girl began laughing as she lied down and started spinning down the cliff. "As the seasons change and the flowers grow, so did she". The Mistress of Evil said with a loving smile on her beautiful face as she watched her beloved 'beastie' stop spinning underneath the cherry blossom and continued laughing happily. Everyone smiled as Aurora grab a few fallen cherry blossoms and threw them in the air, before she laid her hands down.

The illusion changed once more to another part of a forest. Everyone was floating above a bunch of different colored leaves underneath a tree branch. Then, out from the pile of leaves came a 15-year-old, happily laughing Aurora. Mal, Ben, Carlos, Jay, Evie, Doug, Jane, Fairy Godmother, Adam and Belle all looked at the teenage girl with wide eyes with different reactions. All of the boys had deep blushes upon seeing her beauty. The girls had looks of admiration on their faces at how beautiful and carefree Aurora was. The evil Maleficent glared at the sight of Aurora. Diaval smiled at the sight, while Maleficent had a loving smile on her face, like that of a mother who loved her daughter, directed at Aurora.

Mal looked towards her mother and saw the look of mother love on her face, much to the purple haired girl's disbelief as she's never seen so much love in someone's eyes. 'I can't believe what I'm seeing. I've never seen anyone with that much love in their eyes for someone. How can Mum look at Aurora like that after what her father did to her'. Mal thought to herself in disbelief, wondering how her mother could look at the daughter of the man who betrayed her like that.

Aurora laughed happily as she shook her hair around; before she lied down on the field of leaves and threw some into the air. The illusion around everyone changed to show them floating above a snow covered forest. Everything was covered in snow, meaning it was around winter in this point of time.

Everyone floated down to the snow covered forest, where they saw Aurora, dressed in a cloak and with a hood on, walking up to an approaching dear. "Hello". The soon to be Sleeping Beauty greeted the dear gently as she held her right hand out, which the dear walked up to her. Aurora knelt down to the dear as it grew closer to her and found her holding some grass to it. Nearby, Young Maleficent was watching Aurora from a tree, hidden from her sight. "There you go". Aurora said to the dear as it finished eating the food, before the young teenage girl dropped her hand. Young Maleficent had a rather peaceful look as she watched the teenage girl.

"She wondered at the world about her, and at what lay beyond the wall of thorns". Maleficent narrowed with a peaceful tone as if she was in peace, as the illusion changed to show Aurora walking up to the wall of thorns and looked up at it. Young Maleficent, who had a winter coat around her, and Young Diaval walked out of the forest a little bit away from Aurora and looked at her as she walked up closer to the wall of thorns and place her hand upon one of them.

"Hmm. Curious little beasty". Young Maleficent remarked, while Young Diaval had a small, semi smile on his face. "Why did Aurora want to see the Moors?" Belle questioned with a smile, having enjoyed Maleficent's story so far. "Even she heard about the Moors, and how it was full of magical creatures. She dreamed of seeing the Moors with her own eyes". Maleficent answered with a smile on her face as she stared at Aurora, before she looked right and narrowed her eyes.

"But she was not the only one who wished to get through". The former Queen of the Moors added in a dark tone, getting everyone to look at the direction she was looking and saw a squad of Stefan's soldiers nearby, patrolling the area. Mal glared at the sight of them, which Maleficent had to run her left hand's fingers across her daughter's hair, which calmed the purple haired girl down.

A soldier, who had a crossbow, quietly walked up next to a nearby soldier, who was in the middle of chopping down wood, with his eyes locked on the cloaked figure of Aurora. "Shh". Soldier # 1 whispered to soldier # 2, getting his attention as he looked at his comrade. "Look". Soldier # 1 told his comrade, getting soldier # 2 to look in the direction that he was looking at and saw the back of Aurora.

"Is that her? Is that Maleficent?" Soldier # 2 questioned his comrade, having never seen Maleficent before. "I don't know". Solider # 1 answered his comrade, before he drew his sword as the two soldiers began to sneak up towards Aurora. Soldier # 2 held up the axe, that he was using to chop wood, as a weapon, getting everyone watching, worried for Aurora. "Oh no". Evie said in concern for Aurora, worried that she'll be killed by the soldiers.

The illusion changed back to Maleficent and Diaval's younger selves, where they saw Young Maleficent turn to look at her 'friend'. "Bring them to me". The young Mistress of Evil told the human form raven, which Young Diaval nodded to his mistress. Young Maleficent grew a smile, before she held up her right hand and waved it, casting her magic on Young Diaval and turned him into a wolf, which he let out a growl as he ran into the forest. Young Maleficent looked back at Aurora, who still had no idea what was happening, before she began to walk towards her.

The illusion changed back to the two soldiers. They saw Aurora's face when she turned around and saw that she wasn't Maleficent. Soldier # 1 returned his sword to its scabbard, while solider # 2 lowered the axe he was holding. "No, it's just a silly peasant girl". Soldier # 2 said to his comrade, turning to face him before looking back at Aurora, who was looking up at the wall of thorns.

Suddenly, howling came out of nowhere, getting the soldiers' attention as they turned to face the direction that the howl came from. The howling got all the nearby soldiers' attention as they stopped their work and started looking for where it was coming from.

The illusion changed back to Young Maleficent, who walked out of her hiding spot and towards Aurora from behind. The wingless fairy held up her right hand in front of her face as yellow magic appeared above her palm, before she blew it towards Aurora. Yellow magic appeared briefly around Aurora, before she was lifted off the ground and floated into the air. Her hood had fallen from Aurora floating into the air, letting her hair free as she floated into the air.

The illusion changed back to the soldiers, who were now panicking a bit as the howling changed to growling, causing them to draw their weapons. Even the horses were neighing from the growling. "I have to admit, I'd be scared if this happened here". Carlos commented with wide eyes, holding Dude a bit closer to him as he was frightened from the growling.

"Steady". A random soldier told the horses, while the other soldiers were turning their heads left and right to spot the source of the growling, which turned back to howling, but couldn't spot what was making that sound. The soldiers spread out to find the source of the growling, but still found nothing. Suddenly, they could hear snarling very close by, getting them to turn around to where the sound was coming from.

From the mist of the cold weather, the wolf form of Young Diaval appeared, snarling and glaring at Stefan's soldiers. The soldiers became easily frightened upon seeing the wolf form raven, before they began backing away in fear. Young Diaval gave out a roar as he charged towards them, making the soldiers start clamoring as they ran away from him. However, they all stopped dead in their tracks upon seeing who blocked their way.

The mist temporarily covered Young Maleficent's form, giving her a rather frightening look, before slowly clearing to reveal her. "That's scary". Doug commented in a bit of fear, his body shaking a bit. "Not to mention, dramatic". Adam remarked, noticing that Maleficent and her younger self seemed to have a flare for the dramatics.

"It's her!" The soldiers all exclaimed in fear, backing away from the Queen of the Moors, only for the wolf form of Young Diaval to growl and snarl at them, preventing them all from escaping. The soldiers turned back to look at Young Maleficent, who stared at them with a cold look, while her scepter was leaning against her as it had no magic power to use.

Slowly, Young Maleficent lifted her hands and held them in front of her, while green magic appeared from them.

The soldiers whimpered, before they were lifted off the ground and into the air. They all screamed in midair as Young Maleficent held her hands up as she controlled her magic. She slowly began waving her hands around, causing the soldiers to be flung around the forest, dropping their weapons and helmets.

Everyone watched as Young Maleficent continued to play around with the soldiers by waving her hands around, causing some of them to bump into each other. Young Maleficent gave off a rather sinister smile, before she decided she had enough. She closed her hands, stopping the soldiers in mid-air, before they all closed in and banged against each other upon impact. Young Maleficent thrust her hands out and opened them, releasing a pulse of magic that blasted the soldiers away from each other. Some of them were knocked into trees or onto the ground with the impact knocking them all out.

"Hmm". Young Maleficent hummed with a natural expression on her face. Everyone watching had wide eyes of shock, while Mal was in awe at seeing her mother's strength. "Well… that was… impressive". Fairy Godmother remarked with an expression that was half in awe, and the other half in fear at seeing how powerful the Dark Fey was. "You haven't seen anything yet". Maleficent told the headmaster of Auradon Prep School, getting her to gulp.

Young Maleficent took her scepter into her left hand, before she knelt down next to one of the soldier's helmets and reached her right hand out towards it. However, the helmet began to heat up as the young Mistress of Evil's hand got closer to it, making her lightly gasp in surprise as she pulled her hand back. Mal gained a worried look upon seeing this, realizing that the soldier's armor and weapons were made of iron to deal with her mother.

Young Maleficent looked and saw Young Diaval approaching her. She waved her right hand and cast her yellow magic, turning Young Diaval back into his human form in a crouching down position. The two stood up on their feet with Young Diaval whipping his hands, before he gave Young Maleficent a look. "How could you do that to me?" The past self of Diaval questioned the past self of his mistress in disbelief. "You said anything I need". Young Maleficent answered her old 'friend', not seeing anything wrong with what she just did.

"Yeah, but not a dog". Young Diaval told his mistress, getting Dude to snort at him. "It was a wolf, not a dog". Maleficent's younger self corrected Young Diaval as she turned around and began walking away. "It's the same thing". Young Diaval said to his mistress, making Young Maleficent scoff at him. "They're dirty, vicious, and they hunt birds". The human form raven added, making Carlos, Dude and Jane glare at Diaval for his past self's words.

"Fine. Next time I'll turn you into a mealy worm". The Mistress of Evil replied to her servant without looking at him, her head facing forward as she walked. "Well, I'll be a mealy worm, gladly. Anything but a filthy, stinking…" Young Diaval said, before he was cut as Young Maleficent had enough of his complaining and turned him back into his raven form.

Young Diaval flew away, cawing with Young Maleficent watching him. However, everyone's attention shifted upon seeing Aurora still floating in the air, resting peacefully. The Mistress of Evil's younger self spent a moment staring at Aurora as she continued floating in the air. "I wonder". Maleficent's past self said to herself, getting everyone curious on what she said.

"Mum, what did you mean by that?" Mal questioned her mother from another world, turning her head to look at the Dark Fey, who had her focus on the illusion. "I decided to make a gamble". The former Queen of the Moors answered her daughter, getting Ben to tilt his head in confusion. "A gamble?" The King of Auradon questioned in confusion, before he widened his eyes as the illusion changed once more.

To the people of Auradon's surprise, they saw Young Maleficent walking through an open path through the wall of thorns with the still, levitating Aurora following her. "I decided to bring Aurora to the Moors and see what she'll do". The Mistress of Evil explained as the illusion changed to show them inside the Moors. It had changed from when they last saw it, but it was still breathtakingly beautiful. There seemed to be a veil of light and sparkles around the Moors now.

Young Maleficent walked across a path near a lake with Aurora right behind her. Soon they came across a small field with a great view of the Moors. Young Maleficent walked up a small hill and hid behind a tree, hiding in the shadows, while Aurora stopped following her and was floating above the solid ground. The Mistress of Evil's younger self looked through the branches of the tree she was hiding behind to look at the floating sleeping Aurora, before she waved her right hand out with yellow magic coming out of her hand, before disappearing.

Aurora gently and slowly floated down to the ground, unharmed. Immediately, she awoke from her slumber and looked around her surroundings. She began to grow a smile as she realized where she was. The young teenage girl looked around in excitement as she got up on her feet and looked at the view of the Moors, enchanted by its beauty. Aurora wasn't the only one as Mal, Evie, Jane, Lonnie, Fairy Godmother and Belle all looked enchanted by the Moor's beauty as well. "It's so beautiful". Evie said in awe, her wish of seeing the Moors with her own eyes growing stronger than before.

"I wanna see the Moors with my own eyes". Jane commented in awe with her hands clapped together, which Lonnie nodded. "Me too. This place is the most beautiful place I've ever seen". The daughter of Mulan remarked, wanting to see the beautiful home of the fairies with her own eyes. Mal stared at the Moors with a heartfelt smile on her face, before she turned to look at her mother of another world. "Will I ever get to see the Moors with my own eyes?" The purpled haired girl asked her mother in excitement, getting Maleficent to look at her and give a smile. "If that is what you wish". The former Queen of the Moors answered her daughter, getting Mal to squeal in excitement.

Aurora was smiling as she looked at the Moors, before something caught her attention. A first, it looked like a single blue light approaching her, but it was revealed to be 6 little glowing blue fairies. The fairies flew around Aurora, who held her right hand out as she watched the magical creatures fly around her. She even touched a few of them with a happy smile planted on her face.

Young Maleficent watched in fascination as Aurora interacted with her fellow fairies of the Moors. Even the people of Auradon watched in fascination as the soon to be Sleeping Beauty interacted with the fairies of the Moors. "Wow". Aurora said in awe, her eyes moving from one fairy to another as they circled around her. The fairies began squeaking around the teenage girl, causing her to turn around to face one of the fairies. Aurora held her left hand up in front of the fairy, who slowly flew closer to it and placed her tiny hands on the human girl's finger, before she pulled her hand back.

The fairy gave Aurora a smile, before she gasped as she spotted something. The fairy let out another gasp when she saw it was Young Maleficent, before she and the other fairies flew away in fear of the Mistress of Evil. Aurora looked around a bit in surprise, before she turned to look at where Young Maleficent was hiding. "I know you're there. Don't be afraid". Aurora said to the hiding fairy, much to Young Maleficent's amusement as she chuckled. Even Mal chuckled a bit, while Lizard Maleficent gave a glare.

"I am not afraid". Young Maleficent told the daughter of the man who betrayed her, her face having an amused smile. "Then come out". Aurora replied to the wingless fairy, wanting to see her with her own eyes. "Then you'll be afraid". The Dark Fey's younger self warned Aurora, thinking that she'll fear her the moment she comes out of hiding. "No, I won't". The teenage girl replied as she shook her head, getting Young Maleficent to hum in thought as she turned around and walked out of her hiding spot.

At first, she was covered in darkness, showing the famous shadow of the Mistress of Evil once more, before she walked out into the light, revealing her form to the teenage girl. Aurora let out a small gasp of disbelief as she took a step back from seeing Maleficent. "Ha, looks like she did become afraid". Mal remarked with her arms crossed, getting Diaval to look at her. "She isn't afraid, Young Mistress". The human form raven told his mistress's daughter, getting Mal to look at him in confusion.

"Everyone, listen". Maleficent said out loud, getting everyone's attention as they stopped watching the illusion and looked at her. "What happens next… might be the most unbelievable thing you'll ever see". The Mistress of Evil warned the people of Auradon, getting them to frown in confusion at her words. "What do you mean by that?" Ben questioned the former Queen of the Moors in confusion, getting Maleficent to look at him.

"Just watch". The Dark Fey told the King of Auradon, before she went back to watching the illusion. Left confused, the people of Auradon went back to watching the illusion as Young Maleficent and Aurora had a stare off. "I know who you are". Aurora told the wingless fairy, getting everyone from Auradon to take a deep breath at what's about to happen.

"Do you?" The Mistress of Evil's younger self questioned Aurora, who began to smile happily at her. "You're my Fairy Godmother". The teenage girl answered happily, making the people of Auradon gasp in shock and disbelief at what they just heard. Even Lizard Maleficent was full of shock as she fell down onto her back. Out of all the things that they were expecting, this was not even a possibility that they thought of.

"How… she… you… why…?" Fairy Godmother questioned in disbelief, unable to believe that in any world or universe, Aurora would call Maleficent her Fairy Godmother. "Why… would Aurora call you her Fairy Godmother?" Belle questioned the former Queen of the Moors, getting Maleficent to look at the former Queen of Auradon. "I watched over and raised her from the shadows all her life. She must have thought of me as her Fairy Godmother because of it". Maleficent answered Belle in an uncertain voice, still unable to figure out why Aurora called her, her Fairy Godmother.

"Mistress, it might have been like that at the beginning, but not anymore". Diaval said to his mistress, getting everyone's attention as they looked at him. "What do you mean by that?" Mal questioned in concern, wondering what the human form raven meant. Diaval turned to look at his young mistress and gave her a smile. "Aurora's bond with your mother has grown so strong. You could even say that they're like mother and daughter". The human form raven revealed, much to everyone's shock as they looked at the illusion of Aurora and Maleficent.

This was the biggest bombshell that's been dropped on them thus far. Maleficent and Aurora!? Mother and daughter!? That's the most unbelievable thing that they've ever heard of in their life. The tale of Sleeping Beauty was legendary in their world, everyone had heard the tale of the evil fairy Maleficent cursing Sleeping Beauty, so the thought of them being mother and daughter was very impossible to imagine.

The only one not bothered by Diaval's words was Dude. The dog had a thoughtful look on his face, before he turned to look at Mal's shocked face. "Hey, wouldn't that make Aurora your sister, Mal?" The dog questioned the purple haired girl, getting Mal to look at him in shock, before she looked back at her mother, who slowly turned her head to look at the teenage girl.

"…Yes. You could say that you and beasty are like sisters". The Mistress of Evil told her daughter, getting her to widen her already wide eyes, before she looked down in disbelief. All her life, her biological 'mother' had always shown her hatred for Sleeping Beauty and had attempted to transfer that hatred into her. Despite being good now and having had a chance to meet Aurora at Ben's coronation, Mal had never had any interest of interacting with her. But now, after hearing her mother's words and seeing her memories, Mal began growing an interest of meeting the 'Aurora' of her mother's world.

"W-w-wow, this was not one of the things that I was expecting". Adam said in disbelief, having never thought that any version of Maleficent and Aurora could be this close. "Oh, there's still so much left to see". The Mistress of Evil told the former King of Auradon as she waved her left hand, casting her magic to resume the illusion.

Young Maleficent had wide eyes of disbelief at what Aurora called her. The Mistress of Evil opened her mouth to speak, but no words came out. She tried two more times, and managed to finally speak on her third attempt. "What?" Young Maleficent questioned in disbelief at what Aurora called her. "Fairy Godmother. You've been watching over me my whole life. I've always known you were close by". The soon to be Sleeping Beauty explained to the Mistress of Evil's younger self why she called her her Fairy Godmother.

Young Maleficent began walking down the small hill of the field, her eyes locked on the young woman in front of her. "How?" She questioned Aurora, wondering how she knew that she watched over her. "Your shadow. It's been following me ever since I was small. Wherever I went, your shadow was always with me". Aurora explained to the Mistress of Evil's younger self, telling her how she knew that she was being watched over.

Young Diaval flew out of nowhere and perched himself on a nearby tree branch, catching Aurora's attention as she looked at him. "I remember you". The teenage girl said in a happy tone, making Young Diaval caw at her. "Pretty bird". Aurora added with a chuckle, which the raven gave another caw. "This is Diaval". Young Maleficent introduced her friend to the teenage girl, which Young Diaval spread his wings and gave Aurora a bow.

The Mistress of Evil began to lift her right hand, which Young Diaval, having a good idea what his mistress was planning, jumped off the tree branch and into the air as Young Maleficent cast her magic and turned him into his human form, much to Aurora's surprise as she took a step back, before she gasped out in amazement. "Hello Aurora". Young Diaval greeted the teenage girl with a smile, which she bowed her head in greeting.

Young Diaval began to walk up to Aurora. "I have known you since you were a little one". The human form raven said as he stopped in front of Aurora, before he held his right hand out. Aurora placed her right hand in Young Diaval's hand, which he brought to his lips and kissed her hand. Aurora kept gasping in amazement as Young Diaval let go of her hand and stepped back.

She turned to look back at the view of the Moors with a big smile. "It's everything I imagined it would be". The teenage girl said in awe, before she spun around to face Young Maleficent. "Oh, it's just so beautiful! I've always wanted to come…" The young girl said in amazement as she ran up to Young Maleficent, who held up her right hand with yellow magic appearing above her palm, before she blew it at Aurora. The magic surrounded Aurora and knocked her unconscious as she floated off her feet and into the air again.

Both Young Maleficent and Young Diaval looked at the young girl, before the Mistress of Evil's younger self began to walk away with Aurora floating after her. The fairies of the Moors came out of their hiding spots and looked at the floating unconscious girl, no longer affected by Young Maleficent's presence. They followed after Aurora as Young Maleficent lead her out of the Moors and into the wall of thorns.

"Why were they hiding?" Jane questioned with a frown on her face, wondering why the fairies of the Moors were hiding. Maleficent gave a heavy sigh with her eyes closed, getting Mal to look at her in concern. "Due to my change and that I became Queen of the Moors; the fairies of the Moors became afraid of me, despite the fact that I was their protector once. But when they saw Aurora, their fears just disappeared". The Mistress of Evil explained to the child of the headmaster of Auradon Prep, getting her daughter to feel pity for her mother.

The wall of thorns rearranged themselves to clear a way for Young Maleficent as she walked past with Aurora floating after her. The illusion around them all changed once more to show the outside of the cottage, where they saw Young Maleficent walking up to it with Aurora still floating behind her. "I was overwhelmed by the events of that day, that's why I used my magic to place Aurora asleep. I took her home for her to sleep for the night". Maleficent narrated to her audience, watching as the illusion changed to Aurora's room in the cottage, where they saw the young float down to her bed.

Young Maleficent was around the corner, staring at Aurora with a caring gaze. "Good night, beasty". The Mistress of Evil's younger self whispered to the sleeping girl, getting everyone curious on why she referred to Aurora like that. "Why do you keep calling Aurora 'beasty?" Fairy Godmother questioned the former Queen of the Moors, getting Maleficent to look at her.

"It's just my way of showing affection for her. Besides, it just feels right to call her that". The Dark Fey answered the headmaster of Auradon Prep School with a smile, getting confused looks from everyone on why she thought it felt right to call a beautiful girl 'beasty'. "Okay? But I think you need work on nicknames for people". Lonnie said to the Mistress of Evil, getting Maleficent to scoff.

"I don't do nicknames. Beasty is the only exception". Maleficent told the teenage girl, before she leaned closer to Mal so that she could whisper to her. "You're welcome to call her Beasty too". The Mistress of Evil told her daughter, getting Mal to let out an uneasy smile, before she nodded to her. "S-sure". The purple haired girl said in an uncertain tone, honestly having no idea what to think about the Aurora of her mother's world.

The illusion around them all changed once more, now revealing them floating above Stefan's castle. The scenery around them changed to reveal a hidden compartment of the castle. There, everyone saw Stefan sitting down on a rocking chair, looking up at a glass container that contained Maleficent's wings. The people of Auradon widened their eyes and Mal gasped upon seeing her mother's wings, while Maleficent and Diaval glared at the human.

"You mock me. I know what you're doing. I know exactly what you're doing". The false king said to the wings he stole from Maleficent, paying no attention to the door opening to reveal a soldier. "Sire? Your presence has been requested by the Queen". The soldier told his king, but Stefan didn't even turn to face him. "Leave me". The false king ordered, clearly wishing to be alone.

"Sire, she is not well. The nurses are fearful that she won't make it through the night". The soldier attempted to convince his king to come see his wife, but Stefan held his right hand's index finger up to his lips. "Shh. Can you not see we're having a conversation?" The false king replied to the soldier, no hint of concern for his wife whatsoever. Stefan's uncaring voice and attitude made everyone glare at him. "How could he just dismiss his wife so easily?" Carlos questioned in disgust at this man, having grown to hate him from seeing all the terrible things he's done.

"Revenge consumed him. His only desire was to kill me and claim vengeance, nothing else mattered". Maleficent told the people of Auradon, her eyes filled with hate towards the man who betrayed her so long ago. "Gah! I wish he was still alive so I could burn him to the ground!" Mal exclaimed in a hate filled voice, hating the false king for everything he's done to her mother.

The soldier closed the door and left Stefan alone. The false king stood up from his chair and walked up to the container. "When the curse fails, Maleficent will come for me. And on that day, I will be ready". The false king said, looking up at the wings that he stole from Maleficent, making the Mistress of Evil chuckle at him. 'That's what you think, 'old friend'. The Mistress of Evil thought to herself, delighted to know that Stefan's preparations will be for not.

The illusion around everyone changed once more, revealing them back in the Moors. It was dark with the moon gleaming up in the sky. Young Maleficent and Aurora were sitting down on tree branches next to the river, watching fairies dance across the water and using their magic on it.

Aurora was enchanted as she watched the beautiful lights and fairies. "They're so beautiful". The young girl said in peace as she watched the fairies. She took a moment to look at her Fairy Godmother for a moment, before she went back to watching. Aurora reached her left hand out for a bit, before she pulled it back. Young Maleficent was silent as she watched, but she did have a look of peace on her face.

The illusion around them changed once more to another part of the Moors, a small lake with mud all around it. Young Maleficent was sitting down on the grass, wearing a yellow dress. Young Diaval was standing up, leaning his back against a tree and had his arms crossed. Aurora was kneeling down in front of the same fairies that everyone saw throw mud at Maleficent when she was a child, only wearing a light blue dress. The creatures were called wallerbogs, and two of them had pushed a nervous one to Aurora.

The nervous wallerbog looked back at his fellow kind, who were chirruping, before he nervously walked up to Aurora and held white flowers out to her with his left hand. Aurora smiled at the wallerbog, but before she could thank him, something threw mud at her, striking the back of her dress and the fairy in front of her. Aurora and the people of Auradon gasped at this, while the wallerbog looked a bit sad that the flowers were ruined.

The other wallerbogs started laughing, while Aurora turned around to look at the culprit. She saw a blue skin wallerbog standing above the lake, holding mud in both its hands. The fairy creature gave a shrug, having a completely innocent look. The soon to be Sleeping Beauty picked up some mud from the ground and threw it at the blue wallerbog, while the one behind her grew a massive smile.

The mud struck the wallerbog's left eye, causing him to slip into the water, while a small bit of it struck a nearby one. Aurora started laughing as she and the wallerbogs began having a mud fight with each other. Everyone watching, including Young Maleficent and Young Diaval, smiled in amusement as they watched the mud fight. Mal even laughed a bit as she watched her 'sister' and the wallerbogs have fun. One of the wallerbogs threw mud at Aurora, but she ducked down and the mud missed.

However, some of it splattered on Young Maleficent's right cheek, causing her to close her eyes from the sensation. The laughter died down with some of the wallerbogs staring at Maleficent, while the one that threw the mud began to hide. The only ones laughing were Diaval and his younger self, while Aurora was smiling in amusement. Maleficent smacked the back of Diaval's head with her right wing, while her younger self used her magic to splatter mud all over Young Diaval, covering his whole body in mud.

Everyone watching the illusion burst out laughing at seeing Young Maleficent splatter Young Diaval with mud. Young Maleficent looked at Aurora's laughing face with a smile, while Maleficent looked at Mal's laughing face. The purple haired girl was laughing happily at seeing her mother showing her playful side and at seeing her happy.

The illusion around everyone changed once more back to the cottage, before it shifted to show Aurora's room. The teenage girl was sleeping in her bed, while Young Maleficent was using her magic to duck her into bed. Young Maleficent stared at the sleeping girl for a few moments with everyone watching careful. "I revoke the curse. Let it be no more". The Mistress of Evil whispered lowly as she held her scepter with both her hands with yellow magic erupting from her hands.

The people of Auradon gasped in disbelief at what they just heard, even Lizard Maleficent had a look of disbelief on her face from what she just heard. "D-did she just…" Ben questioned in disbelief, standing up from his chair as he stared at the illusion in shock. The yellow magic grew stronger, while green magic began to appear from Aurora. "I revoke the curse. Let it be no more". The Mistress of Evil's younger self repeated as both the yellow and green magic grew stronger.

"I revoke my curse! Let it be no more!" Young Maleficent shouted out as she stepped forward and held her hands up to the side. The struggle between Young Maleficent's magic and her curse was shaking up both the room and house. "I revoke my curse! Let it be no more!" The Mistress of Evil repeated as both her yellow magic and the green magic flew out towards each other and connected.

The magic and curse struggle was so powered that everyone watched it could feel it. "Incredible". Jane whispered to herself in disbelief, having thought that her mother's magic wand was the most powerful magic related thing, but now seeing this had changed her mind.

"Let it be no more!" Young Maleficent exclaimed with a pleading expression, as if she was hoping that she could break her curse to save Aurora. However, the struggle between the magic and curse came to an end with the curse as the victory as it wiped the magic out, before it returned into Aurora and disappeared.

'This curse will last till the end of time. No power on Earth can change it'. A whispering voice said from out of nowhere, which Young Maleficent had a disbelief look on her face as she realized that she can't break her own curse because she set it up that way.

Maleficent gave a sigh, before she waved her left hand, casting her yellow magic as the illusion around everyone disappeared to reveal them back in Ben's office. Everyone turned to look at the Mistress of Evil in disbelief, almost as if what they just saw was the most unbelievable thing that they've ever seen. There were only two exceptions, both Diaval and Mal.

Diaval was looking at his mistress in concern, while Mal was looking at her mother like she was her hero. "Mum, you… really tried to save Aurora from your own curse?" The purple haired girl asked her mother in a disbelief voice, getting the Mistress of Evil to look at her and give a nod. "…Yes, I tried to remove the curse myself. I grew to care about Aurora so much that I wanted to remove the curse myself, but because of the way I set it, it couldn't be removed". Maleficent answered her daughter, getting Mal to breath out in amazement, before she wrapped her arms around her mother and give the Mistress of Evil a happy hug, one that the Dark Fey returned.

Carlos and Evie sat up from the couches, both of them along with Jay looking at the Mistress of Evil in awe, while Ben gave the Dark Fey a smile. "After seeing what I just saw, there's no doubt in my mind that you're really different than our Maleficent". The King of Auradon said with a smile on his face, finally accepting that Maleficent wasn't like her counterpart.

The Mistress of Evil looked up at her daughter's boyfriend, while she kept her arms around Mal. "Thank you for your words, but my story isn't over yet". Maleficent reminded the King, receiving nods from everyone as they knew that she temporarily stopped showing them her past. Mal left her mother's embrace, while Maleficent looked out the window and, to her surprise, saw the sun was already setting.

Belle saw Maleficent's surprised expression, and turned to see what she was looking at. To the former Queen of Auradon's surprise, she saw that it was sunset already. She turned to look back at her son. "Ben, how about we continue in an hour? The sun's already set, everybody's probably hungry". Belle suggested to her son, getting everyone's attention as they looked at her, before they looked out the window and saw that she was right.

"Let's take an hour break, and then we'll finish up Maleficent's story. How's about that?" Fairy Godmother suggested to the group with a smile, which everyone nodded in agreement. "While you're all taking your break, I'll be in the forest if you need me. Plus, I'm gonna keep an eye on this girl". Maleficent told everyone, before she turned around and began walking out of the office with Diaval and the still unconscious Audrey following after her.

"Wait, mum!" Mal exclaimed as she chased after her mother, before she, Maleficent, Diaval and Audrey turned around the corner and left everyone's sight. "I'm gonna keep an eye on them, just in case". Evie informed the group as she, Jane and Lonnie chased after the four. "Well, I for one, am hungry. I'm gonna go get something to eat". Dude said as he jumped out of Carlos's hands and ran out of the room. "Oi Dude, wait for us!" The son of Cruella De Vill exclaimed, before he, Jay and Doug chased after the dog, all three of them hungry after watching Maleficent's story.

With the three boys gone, it was only Ben, Adam, Belle, Fairy Godmother and the lizard form of the evil Maleficent, who was still in her plastic container, left in the room. The King of Auradon sat back down on his chair and folded his arms in front of him, before he gave a sigh. "I really don't know what else I can take in. I honestly have no idea what to expect when we continue watching Maleficent's story". Ben confessed to the three adults, getting them all to look at the young king and nod. "That's understandable. To be honest, never in a million years did I ever think that 'Maleficent' and 'Aurora' could have a relationship like that". Fairy Godmother said to the young king, understanding Ben's exhaustion after seeing Maleficent's story so far.

"Honestly, I'm starting to like it so far". Belle remarked with a smile on her face, having enjoyed Maleficent's story so far and wondered what else there was. "Perhaps soon, we'll see Phillip soon". Adam commented with a smile, honestly starting to gain a bit of respect for Maleficent after seeing that she wasn't the evil fairy that she was known to be.

Fairy Godmother, Belle and Adam began speaking to each other about Maleficent and what they've learned so far. Ben, on the other hand, looked down at the plastic container to look at the lizard form of the Maleficent of this world. The young king stared at the evil Mistress of Evil and compared her to her kinder counterpart, who so far, was a hero in his eyes after seeing the Dark Fey try to save Aurora from the curse.

As he was lost in his thoughts, Ben wondered what it would have been like if that 'Maleficent' and her story were a part of this world. 'What could have been different? Could she have helped the villains of our world? Would Audrey be different, more like the Aurora of that world? And… could Mal have been like Maleficent?' Ben questioned in his mind, before he widened his eyes as he thought about what Mal could have been like if his girlfriend had been a Dark Fey like her mother.

He could practically picture Mal with her own set of wings and horns, and to be honest, he wasn't really scared at the thought. Instead, he thought she'd look beautiful with them, but even without them, she was still the most beautiful girl he's ever seen. The young King of Auradon spent the whole break deep in his thoughts, thinking about how different everything would have been if the Dark Fey Maleficent and her tale was apart of this world, and the changes that she could have brought.


And done! I apologize if this chapter wasn't what you were expecting, but I promise that the next chapter is the last chapter of everyone watching Maleficent's story and Mal will meet Aurora. For now, I hope that you're all satisfied with this chapter for the moment. I promise to get to the next one as soon possible. Now don't forget about what I said at the beginning of this chapter.

Idea #1: Should Aurora go to Auradon Prep School or not. Idea #2: Should Mal combine both of her mothers blood and have the power to transform into a dragon phoenix. Or option number 2 for idea #2, should I just replace evil Maleficent's blood with good Maleficent's blood, making Mal a Dark Fay that can transform into the ancient phoenix of the Dark Fays. Either option, she'll be a Dark Fay. Like I said before, I personally would just prefer to make Mal a Dark Fay like her mother and get rid of the bad Maleficent's side in her, and not merge the the two, but I decided to see what you guys wanted. Please send reviews to tell us what you think of the ideas. Please don't forget to review or message me.
