Welcome to Chapter 9 of "Once Upon a Time in Enchancia". Song in this chapter: a slightly altered version of "Somewhere" from "West Side Story".
Chapter 9: Celebrations (Part One)
October 25, 1867
It was Friday morning at Hexley Hall. As Ruby and Jade entered the school, it was dead quiet. No students wandering around, no teachers wandering around ... nobody in sight.
"Is there some kind of holiday I don't know about?" Jade asked out loud, confused.
"It's probably one of those quiet days," Ruby suggested.
"At Hexley Hall?" Jade scoffed. "Not likely."
"Well, it is getting near the time for morning assembly," Ruby pointed out. "Perhaps everybody is already in the great hall."
"Maybe," Jade responded, unsure.
As Ruby and Jade approached the doors to the great hall, they heard a muffled voice on the other side of the doors saying "here they come!"
Ruby and Jade opened the doors to the great hall, and were met with a loud chorus of voices yelling "SURPRISE!"
"What?!" Jade exclaimed, confused.
"Welcome to your return to Hexley Hall celebration," Sofia smiled as she hugged Jade.
"Miss Lovegood wanted to give you a proper welcome back," Lucinda happily added.
"And here we all are," Dorrie said with a smile.
"Welcome back, girl," Candice joyfully said.
"You had us all worried, Princess Jade," Miss Lovegood said as she walked up. "We're so glad you're feeling better."
"Thank you, Miss Lovegood," Jade gratefully acknowledged. "It's good to be back. But I wasn't expecting such a grand surprise."
"You're welcome," Miss Lovegood smiled as she hugged Jade. "And we wanted to show our support to you."
"I'm touched" Jade said in awe.
"Let the celebration begin," Miss Lovegood directed as the cakes magically appeared on the tables in the great hall.
All the students and teachers looked at awe at the sight.
"I even baked one of your favorite cakes - pumpkin bundt cake," Abby announced as she hugged Jade.
"Oh, thank you," Jade said, pleased, before turning to everybody in the great hall. "Thank you, all."
Everybody clapped in Jade's honor.
"Let's sit down, and enjoy these wonderful cakes," Miss Lovegood suggested to everybody in the great hall.
Everybody sat down, and enjoyed the cakes. It was a wonderful time where everybody enjoyed themselves.
"I never realized how rich I was until this moment," Jade smiled. "I have friends who think the world of me. That's the best kind of rich there is."
"Indeed it is," Miss Lovegood happily agreed.
October 26, 1867
It was Saturday morning at Enchancia Castle. In the courtyard of the castle, a flying carriage was waiting for Candice, Dorrie, and Violet. In the throne room of the castle, everybody was gathered to give Candice, Dorrie, and Violet a proper send off.
"You're so lucky to be able to meet Queen Elsa," fifteen-year-old Amber smiled as she hugged Candice.
"Indeed," King Roland agreed. "It's a well deserved honor, Candice."
"I hope I'm worthy of it?" Candice asked out loud.
"Of course you are," fifteen-year-old James reassured Candice.
"You'll do fine," Sofia also reassured Candice.
As everybody talked to each other in the throne room, Dorrie walked up to James.
"So, how are things at Chivalry Hall?" Dorrie wanted to know.
"It's a dream come true," James smiled. "I've never been happier."
"That's wonderful," Dorrie said, pleased for James.
"Plus, I still get to go to Royal Prep on Tuesdays and Thursdays," James added. "It's the best of both worlds. By the way, how is Des doing at Hexley Hall?"
"I've never seen him happier," Dorrie answered. "I think he's finally found himself."
"That's good to know," James responded, happy for Desmond.
"I hate to break up this gathering, but it's time for Candice, Dorrie, and Violet to be leaving," Baileywick announced.
"Thank you, Mister Baileywick," Violet acknowledged.
As everybody walked out to the courtyard, Queen Miranda motioned Candice to come over.
"I just wanted to say good luck," Miranda smiled as she hugged Candice. "I wish you a safe journey."
"Thank you, Queen Miranda," Candice happily said as she returned the hug.
Candice, Dorrie, and Violet then walked over to the flying carriage. Once they had boarded the carriage, the driver of the carriage got the flying horses going. In a few moments, the flying carriage flew into the air, as everybody on the ground waved goodbye.
Arriving in Arendelle
After a bit of flying time, the flying carriage landed in the village where Arendelle Palace was located. As the flying carriage landed on a street near the palace, people started cheering.
"Uh, what's going on?" Candice asked, taken off guard.
"Apparently, they are here for you," Violet smiled.
"But, who am I?" Candice wanted to know, stunned. "I'm just Candice. It's not like I'm royalty."
"You've got fans, Candice," Dorrie pointed out. "People who have heard about you, and appreciate you."
"This is your time to shine," Violet reassured Candice. "Sit back and enjoy it."
"Okay," Candice agreed, somewhat reluctantly.
As the carriage made it's way to the palace, Candice, along with Dorrie and Violet, waved to the crowd. In a few moments, the carriage turned onto the bridge that led into the palace. The carriage then entered the courtyard of the palace where Queen Elsa, Princess Anna, an honor guard, and Kai (the royal steward of Arendelle) were waiting.
"Lady Candice of House Cosmarune," Kai started announcing. "Her mother, Lady Violet of House Cosmarune, and her sister, Lady Dorrie of House Cosmarune."
Candice, Violet, and Dorrie stepped off of the carriage, and walked up to Queen Elsa and Princess Anna.
"Welcome to Arendelle Palace, Lady Candice," Elsa warmly welcomed Candice, before turning to Violet and Dorrie. "And welcome, Lady Violet and Lady Dorrie. I hope you had a pleasant trip?"
"We did, Queen Elsa," Candice responded as she curtsied.
"None of that, now," Elsa smiled at Candice. "You need not curtsy in my presence."
"As you wish, Queen Elsa," Candice said as she straightened up.
"You have a lovely palace, Queen Elsa," Violet remarked to Elsa.
"Thank you, Lady Violet," Elsa responded, pleased.
"And Arendelle is such a lovely place, Queen Elsa," Dorrie commented.
"Thank you, Lady Dorrie," Elsa responded, again pleased.
"If you'll come with me, I'll show you to your guest rooms," Anna warmly said to Violet and Dorrie.
"Meanwhile, with your permission, Lady Violet, I'd like to talk to Lady Candice for a while," Elsa requested.
"As you wish, Queen Elsa," Violet agreed.
As Violet and Dorrie were led into the palace by Anna, Elsa gently put her hand on Candice's shoulder.
"I'm so happy you're here," Elsa smiled. "I so want to get to know you better. Let's talk while I give you a tour of the palace."
"I'd like that, Queen Elsa," Candice smiled back.
"Just call me Elsa," Elsa requested.
"Yes, Queen ... I mean, Elsa," Candice responded. "And please, just call me Candice."
"Thank you, Candice," Elsa happily agreed.
Getting reacquainted
Anna showed Violet and Dorrie to their guest rooms. At one point, the three of them found themselves alone together.
"Nice to see you again, Lady Violet, Lady Dorrie," Anna smiled. "The last time we met was in Bethlehem to see the birth of Baby Jesus."
"Yes," Violet acknowledged, "along with Candice, Diana, Tricia, Phineas, and Jeffrey. So, how long have you been a Voyager, Princess Anna?"
"A little over a year," Anna answered. "And please, just call me Anna. The princess thing can be so stuffy."
"Of course, Anna," Violet agreed.
"So, does anybody else here know you're a Voyager?" Dorrie asked Anna, curious.
"Oh, heavens no," Anna smiled. "Like your mother, I'm under deep cover, only I'm assigned to Arendelle to make sure that Arendelle history stays on track."
"How did you become a Voyager in the first place?" Violet asked of Anna.
"I was recruited ... by Diana herself," Anna proudly answered. "Voyager Command needed an undercover agent, and it was decided I was the best choice. Well, needless to say, I jumped at the opportunity. The ability to travel through time. How could anybody say no to that?"
"Good point," Violet agreed.
"I imagine you must have been simply amazed by time travel," Dorrie theorized.
"Oh, yes," Anna agreed. "And the people I've met have been so interesting. I even got to meet The Doctor once."
"Whoa!" Dorrie exclaimed, impressed. "What did you think of The Doctor?"
"I liked her," Anna revealed with a smile.
"Her?!" Dorrie and Violet asked, taken off guard.
"Whoops," Anna apologized. "Perhaps I shouldn't have told you that. After all, you've obviously haven't met her yet."
"Well, The Doctor regenerating into a woman actually makes sense," Violet acknowledged. "The Master regenerated into Missy, so cross-gender regeneration must be a Time Lord thing that we're just starting to find out about."
At that moment, Anna, Violet, and Dorrie heard footsteps approaching. In a few moments, Kai walked into the room.
"Princess Anna," Kai started. "It's time to go over the final preparations for tonight's banquet."
"Of course, Kai," Anna acknowledged, before turning back to Violet and Dorrie. "I'll see you tonight at the banquet."
Kindred spirits
Elsa had shown Candice around the palace. The two then ended up in the palace art gallery. As the two looked at the art hanging in the gallery, Elsa turned to Candice.
"You and I and kindred spirits, you know," Elsa gently said to Candice. "We both know what it is like to be misjudged. We've both been to Hell and back ... and survived. For me, it was when my ice power was first revealed to the public."
Flashback:
In Arendelle Palace, Anna had just asked Elsa for permission to marry Prince Hans ... and Elsa had refused.
"What did I ever do to you?!" Anna demanded to know of Elsa.
"Enough, Anna," Elsa said as she started walking away.
"No, why?" Anna wanted to know. "Why do you shut me out? Why do you shut the world out? What are you so afraid of?"
"I SAID, ENOUGH!" Elsa barked as she suddenly and uncontrollably put up an ice barrier as everybody in the room gasped in shock.
"Sorcery," the Duke of Weselton said, taken off guard. "I knew there was something dubious going on here."
"Elsa ..." Anna gasped in an unbelieving voice.
Elsa ran from the room as everybody looked on, still in shock. In a few moments, Elsa reached the palace courtyard.
"There she is," a woman in the crowd said of Elsa.
"The Queen," a man in the crowd called out. "It is her. Queen Elsa."
"Our beautiful Queen," another man called out.
"Your Majesty?" a woman holding a baby asked Elsa. "Are you all right?"
At that point, Elsa backed up against a fountain, touching it. The fountain then froze, as everybody in the crowd gasped in fright.
"Stop her!" the Duke of Weselton shouted.
"Please, just stay away from me," Elsa pleaded. "Stay away."
Elsa, frightened, then sent an uncontrolled ice blast in the direction of the Duke, who fell backward as a result.
"Monster," the Duke of Weselton said. "MONSTER!"
Elsa then ran from the courtyard in fright.
End of flashback, and back to the present.
"I'm so sorry you had to go through that, Elsa," Candice said in sympathy. "When I first came on the scene, I was misjudged as well."
Flashback:
At the park connecting Hexley Hall and Royal Prep, a number of students from both schools were having lunch together. Some of the students were using some newly added picnic tables, and some were sitting on blankets on the ground. Dorrie and Frederick had decided to have lunch in the park that day, and were at a picnic table with Candice.
As everybody had a good time having lunch together, there was one person who was bound and determined to spoil the mood. That person was Princess Deidre.
Deidre walked to where Dorrie, Candice, and Frederick were sitting.
"You Cosmarunes think you can just waltz in and take up with those better than you," Deidre yelled at Dorrie and Candice. "The fact is that the two of you are just stinking witches. You have no place in high society."
"You have no right talking to Dorrie and Candice like that!" Frederick barked at Deidre. "They are good people who have done nothing to you!"
"Good people, you say?" Deidre asked in a mocking tone. "What about Candice here? An evil creation of Maleficent herself. Candice was created to be evil. How do we know that her change to being good isn't some kind of act on her part to throw us all off guard?"
"I can assure you I'm good," Candice countered.
"Yeah, right!" Deidre mocked. "And we're suppose to take the word of somebody who may look the same age as us, but is in fact only three months old? You're a freak, and always will be!"
"It's not like I asked to be created," Candice said, with tears forming in her eyes. "I only want to live some kind of a normal life."
"But you're not normal!" Deidre shouted. "And you never will be!"
Candice ran off into the surrounding forest, crying as she went along.
End of flashback, and back to the present.
"Some people can be cruel," Elsa sadly said as she gently took Candice's hand. Elsa then started singing.
(Elsa) "There's a place for us. Somewhere a place for us. Peace and quiet and open air wait for us. Somewhere."
(Candice) "There's a time for us. Someday a time for us. Time to shine with time to spare. Time to look. Time to care. Someday."
(Elsa) "Somewhere we'll find a new way of living."
(Candice) "We'll find a way of forgiving. Somewhere."
(Both) "There's a place for us. A time and place for us. Take my hand, and we're halfway there. Take my hand and I'll take you there. Somehow. Someday. Somewhere."
"We've been through the worst," Elsa said as she gently hugged Candice.
"They say that anything that doesn't kill you makes you stronger," Candice remarked.
"Yes," Elsa agreed. "We're both living proof of that."
Meanwhile, away from Arendelle
In Cinnibar, at Scarlett's palace, Zahida sighed as she saw Corbett talking with Scarlett about recent events as Constance went over to Zahida.
"I know that look anywhere, Zahida," Constance said as she smiled. "You have a crush on Corbett."
"I do not!" Zahida shouted as she sighed.
"Yes you do. You totally have a thing for my brother," Constance said mischievously.
"Fine. Let's say I did like Corbett. What makes you think he'd like me back? He's more suited for someone like Hematite than me," Zahida remarked, once again sighing.
"Don't put yourself down," Constance gently said. "You could be as much in the running as anybody else."
"In case you haven't noticed, I don't have experience being in the market as it were," Zahida reminded Constance. "It's not like I've ever gone after a man before. I always had other things to do."
At that moment, Corbett walked over.
"I was wondering if I could talk to Zahida?" Corbett requested.
"I'll leave you two alone," Constance said as she walked away.
"I was wondering how you are feeling?" Corbett asked Zahida, concerned.
"Better now that I'm free," Zahida answered.
"That's good to hear," Corbett smiled. "I was wondering if you would like to have something to eat with me? Queen Scarlett says there is a good restaurant near here."
"I'd like that," Zahida responded, trying to play it cool.
"We could go now," Corbett suggested. "Queen Scarlett and I have finished up our conversation, and I have a few hours before I'm due to return to Cariza."
"That would be nice," Zahida approved as she and Corbett walked out of the room.
"Well, things have a way of working themselves out on their own," Constance remarked to Scarlett.
"You know that Corbett is interested in Zahida?" Scarlett asked.
"I know that Zahida is interested in Corbett," Constance revealed.
"Well, then," Scarlett smiled. "This could be a chance for a happily ever after for the two of them."
Elsewhere, other activity was taking place. Sofia had summoned Skye, and the two were flying to the Mystic Isles. In a little while, Sofia and Skye arrived at Chrysta's house.
"What are we doing here, my princess?" Skye wanted to know.
"I have a message to deliver," Sofia smiled as she walked up to Chrysta's house, and knocked on the front door. In a few moments, Chrysta answered the door.
"Sofia!" Chrysta exclaimed in glee. "What brings you here?"
"May I come in?" Sofia asked.
"Of course," Chrysta responded as she warmly led Sofia into the house.
"I know it's only October, but we're already making plans at Enchancia Castle for Wassailia," Sofia explained. "And, I have an official invitation from my dad ... to you."
Chrysta opened the invitation, and read it.
Dear Protector Chrysta.
You are hereby invited to attend Wassailia dinner with us here at Enchancia Castle. We know you and Sofia are very close friends, and we would very much like you to celebrate the holiday with us. Please inform Sofia of your decision.
Very Sincerely Yours,
King Roland the Second of Enchancia.
"I don't know," Chrysta said, unsure. "I'm not sure I could fit into fancy palace life, even for one dinner. Plus, I do have errands here on the Mystic Isles on Wassailia."
"The dinner would be after your errands," Sofia started. "And, we'd love to have you. My mom and dad really want to meet you."
"I wouldn't know how to act," Chrysta explained. "I'm sure there are fancy ways to act, and, in case you haven't noticed, I've never been the fancy type. I'm sure I would be an embarrassment."
"No, you wouldn't," Sofia said in a reassuring tone. "We don't stand on formality. All you would have to do is to be yourself."
"Still, I don't know," Chrysta said, still unsure.
"My dad says to tell you that we'll be having plum bread and banana pudding," Sofia threw in.
"My favorites!" Chrysta exclaimed, pleased. "All of you really want me there?"
"We really want you there," Sofia warmly smiled.
"Thank you, Sofia," Chrysta smiled back as she gently hugged Sofia in happiness. "This is something I'll look forward to."
Sofia walked outside, and climbed on Skye. The two then flew off.
"That worked out rather well, my princess," Skye remarked. "I'm sure Chrysta will have a good time."
"You're invited to have a special Wassailia dinner in the castle stables," Sofia said to Skye. "We always give the horses a special Wassailia dinner, and I know Minimus would love to see you."
"Then I would be honored to accept your gracious invitation, my princess," Skye smiled.
Back at Arendelle Palace
It was now night in Arendelle. In the great hall of Arendelle Palace, tables with fancy place settings were set up. As Candice, Violet, and Dorrie walked in, Elsa walked up to them.
"This is absolutely amazing, Elsa," Candice said in awe.
"Thank you," Elsa responded, pleased. "This is your night, Candice. Everybody is here to see you. But, before that, I have a surprise for you."
Candice, along with Violet and Dorrie, turned around to see a familiar man standing there - King Erik Fitzherbert of the Kingdom of Corona.
"Uncle Erik!" Candice and Dorrie exclaimed in glee as they raced over and hugged him.
"My precious girls," Erik smiled as he returned the hug. "But, I can't call you girls anymore. You're two beautiful fourteen-year-old young women."
Candice and Dorrie smiled at the complement.
"I have another surprise for you," Elsa announced as she motioned two people to come forward - fifteen-year-old Prince Frederick, and fourteen-year-old Prince Everett, from the Kingdom of Ornburgh.
"Frederick," Dorrie smiled.
"Everett," Candice happily acknowledged.
"Go hang out with your two young men," Erik smiled at Dorrie and Candice. "I'll see the two of you later."
As Dorrie and Candice went over to Frederick and Everett, Violet, Elsa, and Erik smiled.
"They make two fine couples," Erik approved.
"Frederick and Everett treat my girls with the up most respect," Violet happily revealed. "When the time comes, they'll make fine husbands for my daughters."
"Arranged marriages?" Elsa wanted to know.
"Nothing so formal, Queen Elsa," Violet explained. "Frederick and Dorrie love each other very much, and Everett and Candice love each other very much. It's simply a foregone conclusion that they will be getting married when they come of age. Marriages of love and happiness."
"As Kristoff and I have," Anna happily said as she and Kristoff walked up.
It soon became time for the banquet to begin. Invited guests made their way into the great hall, and sat down. At a table facing the guests, King Erik, Violet, Frederick, Dorrie, Everett, and Candice were seated. Elsa was also at the table, sitting in the middle. Elsa then stood up.
"We are here to honor a special guest," Elsa started. "That special guest is Lady Candice of House Cosmarune. As we all know, Lady Candice started off being a clone created by Maleficent to carry out an evil mission. When it was time to carry out that mission, Lady Candice chose good over evil, and became a shining example to the world. Lady Candice has devoted her life to good, and I am honored to have her here tonight."
Everybody stood up and clapped in Candice's honor. A tear of happiness formed in one of Candice's eyes. During this, Everett gently held Candice's hand.
"They love you, as I do," Everett gently whispered to Candice.
Candice smiled at Everett in gratitude.
"Let the banquet begin!" Elsa said as everybody sat back down and were served fine food and drink.
After the banquet, a line formed, and all the guests got to meet Candice on a one on one basis. Everybody was very impressed with Candice, and Candice received a lot of fine complements in the process. Elsewhere, evil eyes were not so impressed as they watched through a crystal ball.
"Look at her!" Grimtrix said in anger. "She betrays the forces of evil, and they treat her like some kind of conquering hero. It's disgusting!"
"I have an idea, if you're up for it," Snively Sage said to Grimtrix.
"I'm listening," Grimtrix acknowledged.
"My sister's wedding is coming up at Enchancia Castle," Snively started. "I'd give anything to throw a monkey wrench into that wedding. Plus, Lady Candice works and lives at the castle. We could disrupt the wedding and go after Lady Candice at the same time."
"What a delicious idea," Grimtrix smiled. "Assemble the Order of the Wand. We'll start making plans immediately."
Meanwhile, at Arendelle Palace, everybody had made their way out into the courtyard to enjoy the night sky. As Candice walked around the courtyard, Candice heard a male voice come from behind her.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Lady Candice," the male voice said. "This is the second time I've met somebody from Enchancia."
Candice turned around to see Olaf the snowman standing there, complete with a personal flurry over his head.
"Oh my God!" Candice exclaimed in awe. "You're Olaf! Sofia's told me all about you."
"Princess Sofia?" Olaf asked, pleased. "You know Princess Sofia?"
"We're good friends," Candice smiled.
Candice and Olaf spent a while talking. As Candice was about to leave, she looked at Olaf.
"Would it be okay if I hugged you?" Candice asked Olaf.
"He likes warm hugs," Elsa smiled as she walked up.
Candice bent down, and gently hugged Olaf as Olaf giggled in glee.
"That feels nice," Olaf happily said. "Until we meet again."
"Until we meet again," Candice said as she curtsied.
"And say hi to Princess Sofia for me," Olaf requested.
"I will," Candice promised.
"I'm about to turn the courtyard into a giant ice rink," Elsa announced to Candice.
"I love to skate!" Candice exclaimed, pleased. "But, I left my skates at home."
"No problem," Elsa reassured Candice. "I'll use my ice power to transform your shoes into skates of ice."
Elsa and Candice had a pleasant conversation as they walked to the center of the courtyard. Elsa then turned to everybody in the courtyard.
"Are you ready?" Elsa cheerfully asked everybody.
Everybody cheered in approval.
Elsa used her ice power to turn the courtyard into an ice rink. Elsa then waved her hand at the shoes that Candice was wearing, and magically added blades of ice to Candice's shoes.
"Thank you, Elsa," Candice smiled.
"My pleasure," Elsa smiled back. "Go enjoy yourself."
As Candice skated out onto the courtyard to join others skating, Elsa looked happily at the scene. It was nice seeing everybody enjoying themselves. It was a wonderful way to end an evening.
October 28, 1867
It was now Monday. Candice, Violet, and Dorrie had returned to Enchancia Castle. Meanwhile, in Cinnibar, at Scarlett's palace, Scarlett was in her office when her royal steward, Colette, walked in.
"Queen Scarlett," Colette started. "There's a Juliet Baring and her teenage daughter, Tricia, to see you. They say they have an urgent matter to discuss with you."
"Send them in, Colette," Scarlett acknowledged.
A blond haired white woman, and a teenage white girl with light brown hair, were escorted into Scarlett's office by Colette.
"I'll leave the three of you alone to talk," Colette said as she left the room.
"Thank you for seeing us, Queen Scarlett," Juliet said as she and Tricia curtsied. "Since this is a matter of the up most importance, I'll get right to the point."
"Go ahead," Scarlett directed.
"Tricia and I know you are aware of the existence of Voyagers, and what they do," Juliet started. "Tricia and I are two such Voyagers, and we need your help to keep the current time line from being altered."
"I understand," Scarlett said as she stood up. "It's an honor to meet you, Juliet Baring, or should I say ... Lady Diana?"
"You know who my mom really is?" Tricia asked Scarlett, taken off guard.
"Oh, yes," Scarlett smiled. "Violet filled me in on some things, including the existence of you and your mother."
"That makes things easier," Tricia admitted.
"Well then, to the business at hand," Diana started. "The Order of the Wand is planning to disrupt the upcoming wedding of Yuki Moto and Silvia Sage, and go after Lady Candice at the same time. This will alter the time line if it is allowed to take place."
"We'll need to make plans," Scarlett said to Diana and Tricia. "Please follow me."
(To be continued in Chapter 10).

Author's notes
Arendelle, Kai, Kristoff, Olaf, Prince Hans, Princess Anna, Queen Elsa, and the Duke of Weselton are from "Frozen". As a side note, it was never really mentioned exactly what role Kai played in the palace in "Frozen", but since he has duties quite similar to Baileywick's, I have to assume that Kai is the royal steward of Arendelle.
For more about Diana/Juliet, see Chapter 49 of my story "Dorrie". Meanwhile, for more about her adopted daughter, Tricia, see Chapters 42 and 43 of my story "Dorrie: Book Two".
