Ok so before we begin I have to answer Creator of Magic's review. I'm glad that this fanfic inspired you to write one of your own and have no problem with you mentioning it whenever you decided to publish your own story. If you need any help please message me privately and I'll help as best as I can! Also note for everyone there is a list of benders or non- benders that can be found on my profile.
I still own nothing but the plot and my ocs which doesn't include Rotbart!

Normal pov
The students of Ever After…well mostly the bending students at least were all back in the common room discussing how their first bending lesson had been for them. Overall the group had very mixed ideas on how they felt about the lessons over all.
"It was awful! Two hours doing nothing but trying to push giant rocks around which was completely impossible!" Apple complains to the group. "I told you doing this bending thing was a bad idea."
"Apple it was our first day, first lesson even we can't expect it to be easy." Darling says though she is tired she doesn't want to give up on bending just yet.
"Darling is right Apple, maybe next lesson will be better hopefully." Dexter decides to add in.
"Not sure about that Dex, trust me earth bending is hard I've had to watch a few of my cousins learn how to do it." Cupid proclaims. "At least Lily didn't throw giant boulders at you guys and yell at you to face it head on. Well at least not on the first day!"
"Well at least you guys were trying to do something today!" Sparrow said in frustration.
"Yeah all we did was learn how to breathe! Because of all the things we could have possible learned today breathing apparently is the most important thing for fire benders." Daring says annoyed. "It's like Antonio thinks we're little Pre-Chapters or something?"
"I guess the air bending lesson wasn't so bad then." Hunter tells the group.
"Yeah, but almost every one couldn't get through the air bending gates." Ashlynn points out remembering how the lesson went.
"Everyone couldn't but Maddie that is." Bunny points out.
"The key to it is that I never resist anything so finding the path of least resistance was easy as TEA!" Maddie says gleefully. "Oh! And how was your water bending lesson Lizzie!"
"Well at first it was really hard but eventually after Cerise figure out how to push and pull the tides, and then Rotbart the rest of us were able to figure out how to push and pull the tides as well." Lizzie explained.
"Yes by the time the class ended I was pushing and pulling the tides beautifully. It's only a matter of time before I'm as graceful bending water as I am dancing on top of it." Duchess exclaimed in a superior tone.
"You don't know that for sure Duchess it was only the first day." Cerise counters while shaking her head.
"Right and clearly out of all the other bending styles water bending must be the most easiest seeing as how you've all managed to start bending already." Daring says unimpressed.
"Excuse me?" Cerise says turning to look at him with a glare.
"Look I'm not saying that I'm not happy for you Cerise. It's just that it sounds like the rest of us had a harder day then you water benders did, so therefore water bending must be not as hard or possibly as strong as the other bending styles are." Daring explains much to the anger of all the water benders.
"You know Daring just because you don't know how to breathe doesn't mean that you should blame water benders for that!" Cerise yells at Daring getting up to march out of the room.
"Wait Cerise, I'm sorry I didn't mean it like that!" Daring shouts running after Cerise.
"Guys I think we should stop talking about this for today before we all start arguing with each other over how hard our first lesson was." Hopper tells the group after a while.
"Yeah I agree plus I've got some thronework, I should really get started on before it gets too late." Raven says getting up and leaving as well.
"Honestly I see this as another reason why we shouldn't be doing this bending thing at all." Apple says in a sing song voice.
Kitty pov
Bending, Bending, BENDING! That's all anyone can talk about now! It's bending this and oh bending that, it's not like it's the cat's meow or anything…Ok maybe it is and I just wish I could be learning an element as well. All my wonderland friends are benders so why can't I be one? Hell even my ex is a bender and knowing Rotbart he is most likely cooking up ways to torture people with it later. I want a test do over…Maybe if I talk to Andrea she could get me one.
Kitty Cheshire didn't normally get jealous of other people but in this one case she couldn't help it. Her best friends forever after and herself were no longer on the same level and since Andrea was the one to cause all this then she should be the one to fix it. I really hope this works. Kitty thinks as she knocks on the door of Andrea's office.
"Come in!" Andrea says from inside her office.
Kitty walks in the room and grins at the giant tree in the middle near Andrea's desk. "Oh, nice tree!" Kitty says as she disappears and reappears on top of it. "But if you are trying to use this tree to butter me up it's not going to work."
"And why would I be trying to butter you up Kitty?" Andrea asked curiously.
"Oh, right I almost forgot," Kitty begins as she disappears and reappears on top of Andrea's desk this time. "I want a do over."
"A do over for what Kitty?" Andrea asked although she had an idea of what this was about.
"On the bending test! I want to be a bender all my wonderland friends are benders now and I hate being the one left out!" Kitty explains to Andrea.
"Kitty, you can't change these things I'm sorry but you are not a bender. You could take the test a hundred times but at the end of the day the same thing would happen every time!" Andrea tries to explain.
"But it's not fair! How are the rest of us supposed to feel?" Kitty cries out.
"But Kitty of all people I would think that you would be one of the few to understand. After all you have magically abilities that your friends and classmates don't have. But you don't see them complain about it. I know it's hard feeling left out but you can't change who you are, and what you are is not a bender and that's okay C.A. Cupid isn't a bender either but she's still friends with people who are and is even good at giving them some advice about bending." Andrea explains.
"I just feel so out of place now." Kitty says sadly lowing her head down.
"If that is the case then you need to tell your friends, if they care about you then they will at least tone it down about bending if it really bothers you that much. In the meantime maybe talk to Cupid she's closer to your age and she knows what it's like to not be a bender when there are others in our family who are." Andrea suggested.
"I guess that could work, Charm you later." Kitty says as she disappears out of the room again.
I hate that I can't have a do over and even though deep down, I know Andrea is right that I shouldn't feel bad about not being a bender but I can't help it. My friends and I use to be able to sit and have tea from 4-6 every day and speak in riddlish but now they are off bending and soon they could just forget all about me!
Kitty walks in to the dorm she and Maddie shared lost in thought thinking about how this bending thing was going to change her friendship with all her wonderland friends.
"Kitty, you've finally made it to your unbirthday tea party!" Maddie says out of nowhere gleefully.
"What?!" Kitty says in shock as she looks around the room to see all of her wonderland friends dressed up for an unbirthday party.
"I knew you were upset about not being a bender Kitty," Lizzie begins to explain.
"So we thought we would do this for you to show that no matter what us wonderland folk will always stick together." Bunny finished explaining.
"Thanks you guys!" Kitty says feeling touched that her friends would go through all that trouble.
"Now let's get this unbirthday tea party started." Maddie shouts. "A very happy unbirthday!"
"To me!" Kitty sings excitedly.
Ok not the best chapter but I think it turned out to be ok. Please review!
