Chapter 4: The Room
As the girls walked down the hall to their dorm they wondered what it looked like. Olivia opened the door to the girls' dorm as lots of light almost blinded them and the girls couldn't help but gawk at all the pink wallpaper, frills and lace, bed spreads, carpet, everything was different hues of PINK and all the curtains were open, Snowi was grinning while Lyra and Olivia looked disgusted.
"Wow." Snowi gaped in utter delight - almost squealing - at the ora of a princess' room. "This place is so amaze…"
"Gross." Lyra cut her off, a look of pure disgust on her face, not noticing Snowi's look of girly wonder.
Olivia was squinting and continuously blinking trying to see if she was dreaming this horrid room and gasped. "OMG (oh my goodness) this room! Its horrid!"
"I know right." Snowi said before both girls could notice. "Amazingly gross." She mental screamed of excitement at the room.
Olivia blinked again and said dramatically. "It … hurts my eyes! I think I might go blind!"
"We are gonna need some serious sunscreen." The teenage witch-in-training replied before snapping her fingers and pointing to the curtains, "Lets close those curtains."
The girls close the curtains giving the bright room a little bit of darkness like they were use to, and not all the bright lights. It made the pink darker ... at least if they didn't turn on a light or open the curtains, then maybe - just maybe - they could tolerate it.
"Much better, now I can see." Olivia sarcastically as she looking around a bit more. "Hey, Lyra, do you have a spell in your Mom's book about changing the color of thing?"
Lyra looked at her friend and smirked and said. "Good idea Liv," she she pulled out her book from her jacket and flipped though the pages and fount it. "Change this room to something we like, before we hit the road on a bike." She changed as she took her flute and played the tune. Dark green-ish yellow music notes came from her flute and crept around the room changing the room to darker colors.
Olivia looked at her dark green and black bed that was suit to her liking. Snowi's bed was different kinds of blues and whites just the way she like it and Lyra's was crimsons and blacks, and the beds were a bit gothic like, which was all fitted fo there liking.
"Now this is more like it." Olivia commented as she jumped on her bed and laid down in the bed. It was just like the bed she dreamed of! Yes, she loved her bed, but this was the bed she had always dreamed of.
"Yeah!" Snowi beamed with happiness at her bed, she sighed dreamily and started to unpack excitedly.
"I just used magic for the first time ever!" Lyra said excitedly flipping through her book and looking at all the spells she could do, they ranged for innocent to cruel, she sat on her bed. It was all very fascinating, for a girl who have never seen or used magic before.
"I wonder when I will get to use my magic?" Snowi asked herself crossing her arms while leaning up against the gothic style head board, looking at the ring on her hands.
"I must unpack my whip and put it where people can see it." Olivia said getting off her bed and walked over to her suitcase and opening it. She pulled out a black shiny whip and walked over to her bed and coiled it up and hung it off the stake with a round ball on it, in the middle of her footboard.
"Hey what shall we do!" The blue-haired princess asked looking at the the young dame and witch.
"I would like to hang our here and keep as far as the HKs as we can." Olivia said as she looked at Snowi. "Girl, why you unpacking?"
"Because won't we be staying here for a while?" Snowi asked with a quizzical look on her face looking at the young dame.
"Hello, tonight we are going to get that wand so we will not have to be in this ... ghastly impertinent school any longer than we have to!" The Threatener (as she calls herself) explained pausing and trying to get the word out without hurling at the though of being in the same room with Princesses.
Lyra nodded with a sly smile. "Couldn't agree more, and I will get to see the Diamond Castle!" She said excitedly with a wicked grin.
"Lyra." said a tiny pip-squeak voice came from under the bed. The teenage witch's head snapped up from her book and then she looked under her bed and saw her pet dragon.
"Oh Sly, hey!" Lyra said in a sarcastic way grabbing the little red dragon. She set her on her bed and looked into its blood red little beady eyes that stared into her green eyes.
"Oh Icy!" Snowi called as a fluffy white owl popped out of the front of one of Snowi's suit cases. And gave a "Woo" and nuzzled the blue-haired girl cooed in a baby voice. "Hey my baby!"
"Ugh, why must you talk baby talk to that ... that white ... thing!" Olivia groaned mentally thinking of the ways of killing it from quick to horridly cruel.
"Just because you can never have a pet because you'll murder it, doesn't mean I can't!" Snowi countered as her little snowy owl hid behind on of the villainous princess' bed.
"Point taken, at least Lyra's breathes fire and isn't cute and fluffy." Olivia mockingly said cringing at the thought of fluffy things.
"Actually all I can breath is a cloud of smoke and a little orange hot coal." Sly admitted in his soft little kid-ish voice since he was only a baby dragon.
Lyra rolled her eyes at her pet dragon and asked snippy. "Have you been practicing like Mom said? So you can be like Slyder?"
"Yeah, everyday!" Sly said, knowing how much he wanted to be a big scary dragon like a lot of others. Lyra rolled her eyes at the baby dragon before her.
On the other hand, the blond girl did care to much for the conversation, so she decided to change it. "Hey, so do we know where the wand is exactly?" Olivia asked raising her eyebrows.
Lyra looked at her friend and shrugged. "I dunno, but we will when we talk to the boys about stealing the wand!" She stated in a sing-song way. "So we are ALL on the same page about stealing it."
"I'm for it all the way," Olivia grinned happily, thinking of ruling beside her Mom.
"Yeah, I can't wait to find a cute prince!" Snowi said, with a dreamy sigh and smile on her face.
Olivia crinkled her nose."Who needs boys, there soooo over rated!" She plainly said with a slight shake of her head. She did have a boyfriend, but that's a mother whole story, which we will save for a rainy day.
"Yeah, they take up too much time, and love is for saps, its weak, love is soooo gross!" Lyra added with a grimace. She was NEVER shown love and she didn't know what it was like, but all her Mom said, love for people is wrong and love for objects is right.
Snowi frowned and softly sighed, she was shown love, in a different way than the others, but not a normal type of love. Her love was for cleaning and making sure everything was perfect, which the room was spotless, which she loved. Then, her finding a prince to marry, so she could be a queen, and wear a crown, and have all the maids she wanted to clean the way she wanted.
"I don't know Lyra, Olivia, love is super easy for me." Snowi said hugging her pillow closer.
Lyra looked at the blue-haired girl. "That's because your Mom ... loved you, because she just was that type of person." She said in a condescending snippy way.
"My Mom's love was for making me a perfect queen-to-be, ugh, I don't wanna wear a dress and crown!" Olivia stated, running her hands through her blonde hair then falling back on her pillow.
The teenage witch-in-training sighed. "My Mom's way of ruling is completely different than Liv's and yours." Lyra said, pointing to both girls. "And her love if for being number one and ruling the Diamond Castle."
There was a little bit of quietness in the room at that moment. All of the five friends were from different backgrounds and were raised completely different. But somehow they managed to come together and become friends, which on the isle, you didn't have friends, you had enemies or minions. Now, how they met, is a whole 'nother story.
There was a knock on the door, that broke the silence, but also made the three girls jump. Lyra reluctantly got up and opened it, reviling the purple and yellow clad Asian girl and a girl with pale skin with a bit of tan, platinum blonde hair with golden highlights in a messy bun, ocean green eyes. She has some contouring stuff to her face and has very vibrant magenta lipstick shimmered with glitter. Her eye shadow is orangish brown but has some dark grey and black in a smokey eye shadow. She had black eyeliner in panda smudge style her outfit was a white long sleeved shirts with beige shorts, dark brown ankle boots with silver zippers.
"Hi, I'm Princess Izzia." The yellow and purple clad girl introduced with a wave, Lyra seemed unfazed by her peppiness.
"Oh, the one with the band?" Lyra groaned not caring about if the girl answered, which all she did was nod.
"Hi, I'm Leah." The blond with golden highlights said with a wave, as she looked at the blond-haired girl, who was struggling to look over Lyra's shoulder.
"Hi, and ba-bai!" Lyra said closing the door, but Izzia put her foot in the door, stopping it from closing. "Excuse me?" She was not happy with what the girl just did, she had no right to stick her foot in the door to stop her from closing the door.
The Asian girl looked at Lyra, who face said 'What do you think your doing?' "Aren't you gonna invite us in?" Izzia asked looking at Leah, then at the red-haired witch before her.
Lyra looked the girl up and down and sighed. "And now why would I do that?" She said plainly crossing her arms, giving the girls a look of 'Can't you read my face and leave.'.
"Because its the polite thing to do." Izzia simply stated with a smile, as Lyra reluctantly opened the door.
"Come right in." Lyra groaned with sarcasm dripping from her voice as the two girls came in. She wanted to be far away from the HKs, she didn't want to see them until she was ruling with her Mom.
Izzia and Leah looked around the room, it was quite different from the other rooms. It was much darker and sadder then they would have expected it to be. The curtains were all closed and it was a little darker, mainly because of the dark gray curtains, keeping the light out.
"Did Headmistress Amelia do this to your room?" Leah asked glancing at a open book with a flute on Lyra's bed, and on Olivia's had a coiled up whip.
Olivia scoffed with smirk as she rolled over her belly. "Do you really think that the people here would care enough about what we like and don't?" She asked running her hands around the air.
"I don't know, I mean I've never met a villain, other than hearing stories about them." Leah said with a shrug continuing to look around the room.
Izzia looked at the three girls. "Then how did it happen?" She asked looking at Lyra who quickly closed her spell book on her bed and pushed it up to her pillow.
Lyra walked right past her. "Its more of a," She paused for a moment as she leaned up against Liv's bed and crossed her arms. "Secret."
Snowi kept quite, she didn't want to say anything, she just continued to pet her owl. She was so very different from her friends. Her Mom was more motherly than Lydia, but a little softer then Dame Devin, but still had a bad case of OCD.
"Is that a snowy owl?" Leah asked walking over to the ice blue-haired girl's blue hue bed. Snowi looked up at the girl before her bed.
"Yeah, her name is Icy." Snowi explained to the blond with golden highlights, holding the little bird on her finger so Leah could pet it. "You can pet her if you want, she doesn't bite ... I mean peak." Snowi smiled as the little owl gave a happy "whoo" and flapped her little white wings. "She's my pet."
Leah looked up at Snowi, then put her to the owl. At first she dodged her head at the strange girl's hand, but them she realized she wasn't going to get hurt, so she let Leah pet her.
"Oh, she's so soft and cute." Leah cooed to the owl, as it began to softly "whoo" and bobbed her head.
Snowi let out a soft giggle. "She is, do they have any other animals here?" Snowi asked looking at the girl in front of her.
"Yeah, lots, my pets, my Mom's family - animal family - and they all get along!" Leah explained with a smile.
"Like, Polar bears? And uh, cats? Dogs?" Lyra asked, knowing how much she hated dogs.
Leah giggled at the tickle of the owl's little wing on her hands then said. "Yeah, lots of animals of all kinds, most are pets."
"Ah, I see, and what's the chance, of us running into them?" Olivia asked out of pure curiosity.
"Highly likely." Izzia said, leaning her hands against the table then jumping up in it.
"What about ..." Lyra said, pausing, making the two HKs look at her as she continued. "Dragons here?" Lyra wondered if there were any dragons in the outside world.
The dark haired girl shrugged. "Some places have them, there's Penelope and her father, Hugo, but that's in King Stephan and Queen Rapunzel's kingdom." Izzia explained to the red-haired teenage witch. "I don't know about any other."
"Oh, I see, well, most of them are on the Isle." Lyra started, emphasized on the world "isle". She was making a point, there were alot of people and animals that were put there, that really didn't.
"Really, huh, didn't know that." Leah said absence mindedly, giving a slight giggle when the little white owl nuzzled her.
"Yeah, they are big and scary." Olivia said, sounding more scary, just because she liked scaring people. And they were, they were most the time angry at people, only certain people they liked, mainly Lydia.
"Oh." Izzia sighed. That sounded a lot like the dragons in the stories she read, and stories that people told.
And again, the awkward silence had came around again. Here, five girls, five different back grounds, two if them were friends and the other three were, and it was awkward to say the least. They wanted to say something , but what? The HKs didn't know if had anything in common with the VKs and vice versa, which the answer was probably not.
Izzia, being the leader of the band, desired to pop the bubble. "So, have you seen the extra curricular activities yet?" She asked the blond, red and blue-haired girl, who in return shook their heads "No". "Oh, I see, you should, Connor tried his best to find things that would seem of interest to you." She explained to the VKs who all but Snowi zoned out.
"Yeah, yeah, that's good to know." Lyra said absent mindedly messing with her bracelet on her wrist, while hitting her lip.
"Who exactly is Connor, other than being the soon-to-be King and son of Corrine and Louis?" Olivia asked flipping out and retracting her pocket knife in her hand.
"He's a good kindhearted person, always doing what right, finding the silver lining and helping those who need help." Leah said simply. There was way more about him, but you would have to get to know him to find out the rest.
"Oh and sorry about Octavia," Izzia told them, know how rude and obnoxious the blond princess was to them.
"Its okay," Olivia said with a fake smile, even though she wanted fo hurt that girl really bad. "Not everyone can be excited for us to come, can they?" She really didn't like Octavia even from first sight.
"She's like that all the time, she's not a warm and fuzzy person, she's more of a ... you know."
"I don't have no clue what she could be." Olivia smirked in a sarcastic way, by still ever so fake politely.
"I see, well, she can stay clear of us if Octavia's gonna be that way!" Lyra said bluntly with a scoff at the girls name. Her and Lyra didn't get off to a great start, at all!
Snowi looked at the purple and yellow clad girl. "The red clad girl that was hanging onto Connor?" She asked, and was given a nod.
"Yep, his girlfriend, I don't see how they got together or even why are they together, they clash all the time." Leah tells them, looking at the VKs.
Lyra thought about it for a moment. 'Okay, hey, I've got an idea, we can use that to my advantage when I need to.' The red-headed witch though, smiling to herself.
Olivia was thinking about it to. 'Hmm, should I teach her a lesson I she tries and messes with me? I mean, we wont see her after tonight, well, we will see her when we confront them all and take over!' The blond girl though, smiling inwardly.
Leah looked at the three girls. "Anyway, enough about them, what about you guys? Do you miss your parents?" Leah asked wondering what they thought about being away from there ... home.
Lyra wrinkled her nose and scoffed. "Yeah right ... I mean, yeah I do miss ... er Mom, yeah I miss her so much, eh." Lyra caught herself as her face grew a little bit red. She really didn't want them to know that she hated her Mom, but also wanted to be just like her and have her approval.
Olivia looked at Lyra. "Sure, I miss her," Olivia paused for a moment, she didn't miss all the grooming to be a perfect Queen or all the books she had to read. "Its sure weird not having her hear, that's for sure."
"I miss my Mom, I miss her giving me tips when I need them, er, helping me with ..." Snowi trailed off, not knowing what to say. She didn't really - like all VKs - didn't have the best poster perfect parents at all. "And her ... you know what mothers do!"
Leah looked at the three girls. They obviously were having a little hard time talking about their parents, which was a bit strange, and the other thing strange was, where what their fathers? But she didn't want to ask.
"What did you think about when you found out you were coming here? What's your plan for this school year?" Izzia asked the blond, red and blue-haired girls, who in reply having each other looks of 'Don't say a word, lie and make up something!'
"Well, I didn't want to go, because I thought I would have to deal with prissy pink princesses, which obviously there aren't to many of them." Lyra sighed with no gumption at all. She could really careless what she told them.
Olivia was debating whether she should say she didn't want to go because she didn't want to go to school or just make up something. "Eh I didn't care either which way whether I came or not." The blond said absent mindedly with a huff.
Snowi was about to say she really wanted to go, but the looks Lyra and Olivia were giving her, she just said. "Eh, I could careless too." Was all she said as she got up off her bed and walked over to the wall and leaned up against it.
Both princesses found it odd by the looks that were given, the repeating the same things, and the non existent tone they used. But Izzia thought it was just because of them being in a different school and away from home. On the other hand, Leah though something was going on, something they were keeping to themselves, something that they were here to do. She vowed to keep a close eye on them, but still she would be courteous and polite to them.
The black haired girl them smile. "I'm sure you'll change your minds!" She said in a peppy voice, posing with her two hands up with her left leg out.
Lyra gave the girl a roll of her eyes. "Uh huh, sure." She said setting her flute on her nightstand.
"Well, I guess we should go, I think they might wanna rest from their trip, so it was very nice to meet you!" Leah said with a smile.
"Okay, thank you, I think we need to get some shut eye for ton-tomorrow!" Snowi said, catching herself with a sheepish smile.
"Okay, have a good rest!" Leah ushering the purple and yellow clad girl out of the room, as the three VKs laid down on their beds.
"Okay, uh, bye!" Izzia said as Leah closed the door. "What's was that ..."
She was cut off by Leah shushing her as she opened the door to her and Izzia room. They went in and as soon as the door was closed, Leah looked at her roommate.
"What is up with the looks, Leah!" Izzia asked, sitting on her bed, crossing her legs and leaning back on her hands.
Leah cocked her head at the girl. "Look, they are - seam - very nice, but they are hiding something." Leah explained sitting in her bed.
"I noticed how they were always giving each other looks and would repeat what the other girls said." Izzia sighed falling back on her bed. "It could also be their nervous about others, since being here is so different then back at their homes."
"True, and we don't know how they live, so it would be very plausible for them not to tell us everything about themselves, since we did only just meet them." Leah added with a nod from her roommate.
Izzia crossed her arms and sighed. "Well, I still wanna know how they did what they did to the room."
"Yeah, me too, I mean, it is very - unique - I actually like it, not all the dark colors, but just the different look from the boring pinks." Leah said, looking about their pink and blue rooms.
"I will ask Headmistress Amelia if we can do something about our room, like they did with theirs." Izzia said, picking up her white Pekingese named Classic.
Leah nodded. She honestly would like her side of the room to be more outdoorsy, like browns and natural colors, something that brought the outside inside. And Izzia wanted her side of her room to be filled with old records on her walls with her music instruments on her walls too. Like most the students there, they would want their room to be something like back home, so they don't feel so homesick.
"Well, tomorrow is Olivia, Lyra and Snowi, Wendell and Patrick's first day at out school, I wonder how it will go?" Leah said, then thought about it. They could be very smart and get good grades, but then they could also be very troublesome and will be getting detention all the time.
"I don't see what Lorraine has against then, they seam ... nice." Izzia said with a smile grabbing her music book and looking thought it.
"She's a spoiled little princess how what's her way all the time." Leah sighed, rolling her eyes unknowingly at the name of the young princess.
"She is, she is being so mena to them, and nor to their face at all! I would hate to see how she will act face to face with them." Izzia stated, with a small nod.

Hey ya'll, so, I've been thinking, and it would be kinda cool, if I out this AU in the Descendents universe, per say, so some of the same things in the movie, could be also in this one, and maybe I will do a crossover with this one and descendants, eh, who knows, I do hope you liked this chapter, you probably know what the next chapter is about, I'll give you hint, it had to do with a wand :] but also in still working out how it could be in the same universe, since Auradon could be its own huge Island off the coast of France, maybe, I dunno, I've still got lots to think about.
Anyway, I'm loving your guys reviews, so, I will now start answering questions! So if you have any, just tell me and I will answer then down here in the next chapter! Yay! And don't worry, in the next chapter, I will give each VK there own part, with song maybe? Lyra will still have Evil Like Me, but I'm still working on the other songs :) if you have any suggestions, I'd be happy to hear!
