Uma sighed as she tossed her bag and sat in the chair as Harry and Gil followed behind," Oh where is it…", an elderly woman muttered as she looked in her large vintage bag as it was green and somewhat tattered, Mal frowned as she begrudgingly walked through the class doors, " Who the hell has class at 9 am?", she muttered tiredly as she set her worn-out black backpack," Is my mascara smudged?", Evie asked as she set her purse down and pulled out her mirror, Mal grunted setting her head down, " Well good morning Sleeping Beauty.", Uma said smarmily as Mal glared at her, " Save it Shrimpy.", she said before Uma chucked a crumpled piece of paper at her and flipped her off while Mal sneered and tried to lunge at her from the table before Evie grabbed her arm and shook her head. Mal grumbled and sat down before seeing the old fairy smile, " Ah! There it is!", she said as she pulled out a pointer stick and turned around then sent the seven teens a sweet flashing smile at them.

" Alright let's get this lesson started."

The old lady wrote Ms. Fauna on the board and wrote two questions on the board.

What do we want to achieve?

How can we achieve it?

A silence fell on the teens as they looked at the two questions. Fauna smiled as she looked at them, " What do we want to achieve while being in this class and how can we achieve it?", she asked, " No need for an answer now but do think about it and I would like to hear your suggestions by the next sunrise.", she said as she erased it.

" Now let's start our lessons."

Uma groaned as she laid on the green grass, " God that was long...I have never felt so exhausted since my lessons in Serpent Prep.", she complained as she enjoyed the warm sunlight hitting her face, " I must say maybe Bore-adon isn't as bad as I thought.", Harry said as he winked at a few Auradonian girls while they giggled and hid their blushes, Gil rolled in the green grass, " It's so nice and fancy!", he said with slight cheerfulness, " Honestly- I could get used to this...wish everyone else could have this…", Uma said with slight somberness. The trio sat in silence, " Well we can't dwell on what we can't do at the moment.", Harry said as he hoisted Uma up while Gil got up and the three laughed, " What class do you have?", Harry asked as Uma pulled out a crumpled piece of paper in her pocket, " Uh…", she said as she squinted at the paper, " Auradon History..", she said as Harry frowned.

"Sounds boring.", he said as he looked at the paper

Evie walked with her group in silence while rubbing her temples as Mal and Jay casually bickered back and forth, "Yo Evie, you good? You hadn't talked in a bit…usually you would talk a storm being here by now.", Jay said as Evie nodded, " Yea I'm fine it's just I got a headache…", she said before a sudden glimpse of a black elk flashes her vision

Evie walked in her Chemistry class before seeing a relatively elderly man sit at his desk until he looked up while he signaled her to come to his desk, "Ah there you are. Let's have a quick chat.", he said as Evie looked at him nervously as she quickly walked towards the desk, "So you must be Grimhilde's daughter...", he said, Evie eyes widened and nodded, " How did you know?", she asked as the teacher chuckled, " Me and your mother used to be colleagues back in the day before...that happened.", he said Evie did a small slight frown, "She went to college? ", she asked as the teacher nodded, "And she was the top of her class as well. So I expect many great things from you..", he said, " Now have a seat.", he said as he placed a chemistry problem on the board, Evie went to one of the lab stations as she sat in the empty chairs staring at him with shock," Now. Let's do a tiny warm up. What is the molar mass of sulfuric acid?", he asked as a few quick hands raised up before picking on one somewhat airy student, " Alright- Prince Chad. Since apparently my lesson is making you go to Olympus, how about you help us find the molar mass of sulfuric acid.", he said as Chad snapped out of it, " Ah- teach, Uh, well, not very much. I mean, It's a bunch of atoms, right?", he joked as some of the class laughed as the teacher looked at him sternly, Evie sat as she looked in the mirror her mom gave her as she absentmindedly checked and fixed her makeup while fixing any stray hair out of her face that snuck off her braid.

" Well then since you find this so easy. Evie."

Evie jumped as she looked up from her mirror to the teacher, " Since this might be review for you would you like to try?", he asked as Evie only smiled and shook her head, " No...I can't...I don't know…", she said as some kids scoffed in the class, " Of course a villain wouldn't- what would they teach? How to turn people to frogs by using voodoo poison?", one sneered as Evie's polite smile quickly shifted to a frown, " Alright that's enough. Evie-would like to try?", the teacher asked as Evie frowned and got up, " Can I use the bathroom?", she asked, " Ah alright..", the teacher said as Evie quickly left the class while hearing the few snickers and snarky side comments. She sighed as she walked down the hallway and left to the bathroom.

Evie sighed as she did her makeup in the mirror quickly looking in her bag for some lip gloss before looking in the mirror and facing a black elk. She quickly stumbled back in fear as the elk went away and she was faced with her reflection again, but she only faced a somewhat older version of herself smirking at her through the mirror. Her blueish black hair which was held back in a neatly done tight braid was black in the mirror as her braid was now in gentle soft waves cascading down her shoulders as her dark red lips smirked at her as she was dressed in an elegant midnight blue gown as she played with her long black sharp nails.

Evie felt herself stand frozen as the reflection gently placed her finger off her lips before walking away as Evie saw her regular reflection.

The sound of the whistle blew as Jay stopped and caught his breath as Coach Jenkins smiled, " Alrighty I think I already see some naturals here!", he complimented as the boys gathered their equipment, " Alright let's say these results huh?", he exclaimed as the boys quickly gathered around as Coach Jenkins looked through his clipboard, " Alright, Horace, Sam, Andrew…", he called, Jay stood disinterested as he looked towards the woods that lie near the field before squinting his eyes seeing a black elk watching him from afar before scurrying away.

" Hey! Jane, right? From my Astronomy class?"

Mal smiled as the scared freshman turned towards her, " Y-Yeah…that's me…", she stuttered out, " I always like the name Jane…it's so simple. ", Mal compliments, " R-Really? That's cool…", Jane asked as she tried to grab her bag as Mal raised her hand, "Wait!", Jane paused in her steps," I never really made a lot of friends…but I never really met a Wisterian before..", Mal replied as Jane did a small shocked expression, " How did you know?", she asked as Mal did a small chuckle, " You all have very delicate features…I almost couldn't tell since usually you all have very vibrant and pretty off the tongue names.", Mal said as Jane fiddled with her sweater sleeves," Pretty lame isn't it…", she said as Mal gasped, " No never! Wisterians are always for the one's for beauty even if it's simple, that's what mother use to tell me. I mean-", Mal said as she gently guided her towards a mirror, " You have nice long hair…and…very..", she said as she looked at the girl's very poorly coordinated modest outfit, " Perfectly modest.", she said as Jane fidgeted with her very long dark brown hair, " You have really cool hair.", Jane blurted out as Mal's eyes lit up as a mischievous smile formed on her lips, " Ah? Is that so?", Mal asked as Jane nodded, " You know you can always poof yourself a new do…I mean that's what your mom did for Cinderella.", she said as Jane frowned, " My mom doesn't let me…she says that I shouldn't focus on tedious things like magic and focus on school…", she said as Mal did a small pout, " That's horrible…",she says before a mischievous smile drew on her lips, " You know what…", she mumbled as she opened and dug through her backpack and pulled out a detailed leather bound book as she flipped through a couple pages, " Now…let's see…", she mumbled before flipping to a certain page, " What I see doesn't suit me. Give me a look that I would like to see.", she casted as Jane head went up and down, left to right before being raised up as she quickly went in front of the mirror and watched as her long hair slowly became shorter as it reached her neck, her eyes widened while she played with the new hair length, " Woah…", she said as she looked at Mal, " And this is what magic does?", she asked.

"Of course…it is our birthright to use it…especially if you have an eye for beauty."

Jane brows furrowed, " You're right…", she said, " Well you know...you can always prove your mama wrong and show her you have enough power to use that wand for yourself...too bad that I won't be able to see it since its Coronation…", Mal said as her voice went into a pouty tone, " Coronation is a school holiday...everyone is allowed to go. Well from the outside. You can't go inside though…", Jane said as Mal's eyes widened in interest before going into a disappointed face," Ah well... then that's a shame. I was really hoping to soak in all that goodness…you know?", she said, " You know what, I can try to ask my mom about it!", Jane inputs as Mal smiled.

" Awesome."

Mal waved goodbye to the now excited Jane before her smile faulted, " Ugh.", she muttered as she grabbed her bag and left the restroom.
