Once it was morning, Chip introduced Grookey to Felicity.
"Hello." Grookey greeted Felicity.
"...Hello?" Felicity blinked.
"This is Grookey," Chip smiled. "I found him and I think I'm gonna keep him."
"Well... He is a bit cute..." Felicity had to admit. "Nice to meet you, Grookey. I don't think I've ever met a Pokemon like you before."
"I'm from the Galar region." Grookey smiled.
"That must be pretty far." Felicity said.
"Oh, it is." Grookey smiled.
"Well... Good to meet you, Grookey." Felicity said to the monkey-like Pokemon.
"Are you the future wife?" Grookey asked as Chip suddenly blushed.
"That is going to be my new life, yes," Felicity smirked as she glanced at Chip. "Eventually of course... Maybe after our friends get married first."
"Right." Chip smiled before he suddenly felt Grookey getting him closer to Felicity.
Grookey gave a playful wink before going behind Chip covering his own eyes so the monkey-like Pokemon wouldn't watch them kiss.
"Chip... You okay?" Felicity asked.
"I just want to know if... You're okay..." Chip said to her as he put his hands on her shoulders. "You've been acting really different lately."
"You mean having fun?" Felicity asked. "I've been having fun and I wish you would do the same."
"But Felicity this isn't the you I fell in love with." Chip told her. "And it's because Esabella cast a spell on you, making you evil."
"I think I would know if I had a spell cast on me," Felicity replied. "What could Esabella do to hurt me?"
"She's the Enchantress's daughter," Chip told her. "The Enchantress who cursed The Master before Belle, your mom, aunt, and uncle came to the castle to help break the spell. She cursed your father too to make him a villain when he wasn't as bad as he once was during the Christmas celebration."
Felicity gave him a look.
"And if you don't believe me... Maybe you'll believe this..." Chip told her before he decided to give her a kiss to bring Felicity back to normal.
And where the kiss worked as it was true love's kiss as Felicity was back to normal. A rainbow blast soon shot through the Moors after the kiss.
"Felicity... How do you feel?" Chip asked.
"Useless and vulnerable as usual..." Felicity said softly.
"Aw, Felicity... You were never useless or vulnerable to me," Chip said to her. "You've done a lot of great things."
"Yeah, I know," Felicity said before she looked out into the world. "It's just that sometimes I think I was meant to be different."
"How so?" Grookey asked.
"I'm not as brave, strong, or adventurous as others around me," Felicity said softly as she sat down and hugged her knees as she looked up at the moon. "There is one brave person I want to be just like who I wish I could be more like... It feels impossible."
"Who's that?" Grookey soon asked.
"Her mother." Chip said knowingly.
"Mother is so brave and daring," Felicity sighed. "Especially in the stories I've heard about her before she came back home to stay. She says I'm brave and helpful in my own way... That's easy for her to say, she's not scared of anything... I'm scared of most things."
"Maybe, but still she's right; you're brave and helpful in your own way." Chip smiled as he knelt down to Felicity.
"And that means you don't have to be brave all the time." Grookey said.
"Mother is..." Felicity said softly.
"Well, I've seen your mother be scared plenty of times," Chip replied. "Especially if something happens to you."
"She does?" Felicity asked.
"She gets scared that she might lose you..." Chip said. "I'm sure she's told you that before."
"...Sometimes," Felicity slowly nodded. "I just felt so... Brave and confident for once, but I didn't ever want to hurt anyone."
"Yeah, but I think that was only because of the spell not because you were brave and confident on your own," Grookey said. "So if you think about it, that was kind of like cheating in life."
"You're very perceptive for a Pokemon..." Felicity commented.
"Why, thank you." Grookey smiled with a bow and a funny face.
"And funny." Felicity giggled.
"I try." Grookey smirked.
"Feel better, Flick?" Chip smiled softly.
"A little bit," Felicity smiled back before giving him a kiss on the cheek. "You're such a sweetheart~"
"I try my best." Chip smiled back.
"I think I'm gonna like staying with you two." Grookey smiled.
"Oh, by the way; Felicity, do you remember those two gemstones you found?" Chip asked.
"Yeah?" Felicity nodded.
"They could be very important," Chip told her. "And hopefully you find another one that's blue."
"They do seem important," Felicity agreed. "Especially since I found something inside of one before my brain was shutdown."
"Let me guess; they were fairies, right?" Chip asked.
"Oui. Oui." Felicity nodded.
"And Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather are missing someone near and dear to them," Chip said to himself as he got wide-eyed. "Flick, I think I know what happened to the younger fairies."
"Me too, Chip," Felicity nodded. "I'm hoping once I find the final gemstone, then I can help save them all and bring them back to Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather."
"But the question is where will we find the last fairy?" Chip asked.
"Maybe near the end after we're done helping Maleficent." Felicity guessed hopefully.
"Then we'll keep going until then," Chip nodded. "Then hopefully we can help The Three Good Fairies."
"I sure wish they were here instead of Knotgrass, Flittle, and Thistletwit." Felicity sighed.
"Yeah, I've seen those three; they are not good guardians." Grookey said.
"They have never watched over a human before." Chip said.
"I don't think the Three Good Fairies have either, but they did fine with our Aurora." Felicity remarked.
"...Well, yes, and they also had Atticus and your mom, but I understand," Chip nodded. "Hopefully it gets easier later."
"I sure hope so." Felicity nodded back.
Sometime soon passed and Aurora had come back over to bond more with Maleficent. Maleficent sat with Aurora by the lake in the Moors as they watched the creatures fly around in awe.
"They're so beautiful." Aurora smiled.
The water fairies are seen continuing to dance on the water and where Maleficent seemed to enjoy Aurora's company and where Aurelia was told in secret of what happened while she was gone. Maleficent and Diaval soon watched Aurora as she started having a mud fight with some of the creatures, when one of them accidentally hit Maleficent in the face with some mud. Diaval started laughing as Maleficent used her magic to cover his face in mud, making everyone laugh as she smiled.
"It's interesting to see Maleficent in this kind of light." Felicity remarked.
"I'll say," Chip agreed. "Who'd think she'd actually like being around a child?"
"Our Maleficent just seems to want Mal to take over for her or something," Felicity said with a sigh as she remembered when she first met Mal on The Isle of the Lost. "She doesn't see Mal as a daughter... Same with The Evil Queen or Cruella or even Jafar."
"Well, maybe she'll learn to love her daughter as a daughter." Grookey smiled.
"We can only hope." Aurelia said.
"She also seems to have... Parental experience... Or at least want some from what I've seen when she doesn't think I'm watching." Chip whispered to himself mysteriously.
"Good to know." Grookey said.
"Speaking of Maleficent, let us hope this Maleficent will take the curse off Aurora." Felicity said.
"You really think she might?" Grookey asked.
"It wouldn't surprise me... Only if she was the Maleficent I grew up with though." Felicity replied.
Grookey nodded thoughtfully.
"Oh, you guys," Aurelia smiled as she came to see them. "I've never seen Aurora so happy in all her life. Who knew that Maleficent would be so fun to hang around with?"
"This is the most fun we've seen out of her in a long time." Chip said.
"Oui, oui." Felicity nodded.
"So, when will we know when it's time to get Aurora and Aurelia back to the cottage?" Grookey asked.
"When Aurelia decides it's time," Chip replied. "Luckily she's very conscious about that sort of thing."
"What does that mean?" Grookey asked.
"That she's pretty responsible and careful about what she does and when," Felicity explained. "Aurelia's a very responsible girl."
"Ohh... Okay..." Grookey then nodded in understanding.
"Unlike Esabella." Chip muttered under his breath.
Before they knew it, Maleficent used her magic to put Aurora to sleep and carried her with her magic back to the cottage with Aurelia. Once inside the cottage, Maleficent put Aurora to bed as she used her magic to place the covers on the human girl. Chip and Felicity smiled at Maleficent's motherly touch, though it seemed to annoy Esabella.
"I'm about to do something I never thought I would do." Maleficent soon said to the teenagers.
"What is it?" Chip asked, though he had a strong feeling on what she was about to stay.
"Stand back, children," Maleficent advised before she told them. "I'm about to undo my dreaded curse on the poor unfortunate soul."
Chip, Felicity, and Aurelia smiled, happy to hear that while Esabella looked quite shocked as the four of them stepped back so then Maleficent could undo the curse.
'Her good side is shining through.' Chip thought to himself.
"I revoke my curse!" Maleficent soon chanted as she began to use her magic once she felt remorse about cursing Aurora. "Let it be no more! I revoke my curse! Let it be no more! Let it be no more!"
However, nothing seemed to happen which concerned the teenagers and it was just about to get worse.
"This curse will last 'til the end of time," A voice whispered to Maleficent. "No power on Earth can change it."
"Oh." The teenagers frowned in disappointment.
"I guess not even Maleficent can undo the curse." Felicity frowned.
"But maybe she can stop her curse from coming true." Aurelia smiled.
"I'll try to think of something then." Maleficent said to the teenagers.
"We understand," Aurelia replied. "Thank you for at least seeing the error of your ways."
"I've always had a soft spot for... Certain... Children." Maleficent said softly as she glanced down at the ground.
"Well, we better get some sleep." Aurelia yawned.
"That sounds good." Chip yawned back.
Maleficent nodded at them as she looked soft and emotional.
Felicity looked over and decided to go talk with Maleficent while Aurelia and Chip would go to sleep.
"Flick?" Chip called.
"You go to sleep," Felicity said to her boyfriend. "I'm gonna talk with Maleficent for a little bit."
"Okay, see you in the morning." Chip said.
Felicity nodded before going off. Chip then yawned and went to go straight to sleep.
"Maleficent..." Felicity called as she came to the dark fairy. "Are you okay?"
"I'll be fine, dear," Maleficent said as she held onto something close to her heart. "Get some sleep. It's been a long day for everybody."
"Oui. It has," Felicity nodded before sees something Maleficent was holding close to her heart. "What's that?"
Maleficent glanced over and soon showed what she had.
"...I have noticed that before," Felicity said. "It looks like your scepter... Only small... As if it were designed for... For..."
"A baby." Maleficent finished for her softly as she shook the item as it rattled like a classic baby's toy.
"Did you have a baby once?" Felicity asked. "Or is it your scepter from when you were a baby?"
"Both actually..." Maleficent said.
"...So you had a child?" Felicity asked. "Why haven't we see them?"
"I didn't want to make a fuss about it, but it's a long and complicated story," Maleficent replied with a deep sigh. "I met someone a very long time ago and soon, we started to mate together... Eventually, I hatched an egg and did everything I could to keep it safe and happy. Someone then came and feared what a life with my child would be like, seeing that a child of a villain would be as bad as the parent."
Felicity frowned as that sounded wrong and unfair.
"The person soon cast a spell and opened up a portal," Maleficent continued. "This group... Who wanted me to join them... Called the Queens of Darkness set out and they said they would help, but they didn't... I was powerless and soon, this wizard fought me and he had won... So he sent the egg away just as it was beginning to hatch... And I never saw my child or ever will again."
"That so unfair that they would do that," Felicity said. "I promise you that wherever your daughter is me, Chip, and Aurelia will find her with help from Esabella of course."
"Thank you, Felicity." Maleficent smiled.
"So, what was your daughter's name?" Felicity asked.
"I never had the chance to meet my child... Though I was always partial to maybe the name 'Lilith'." Maleficent replied.
"Then we'll find a way to find Lilith," Felicity promised. "You can depend on us."
Maleficent gave a small smile and soon suddenly hugged Felicity without another word.
"...I never imagined in my life that I would be sharing a hug with Maleficent... But I'm not fighting it." Felicity whispered to herself from in the hug.
After a while, they separated from the hug.
"Well, I better get some sleep," Maleficent said. "And you should do the same."
"I will," Felicity replied. "Good night, Maleficent."
"Good night, dear." Felicity nodded before she went to get some sleep that night.
Esabella glared from within the shadows as Felicity went to lie down next to Chip as Grookey was asleep beside Chip's feet. "This is bad," The young Enchantress glared. "If this keeps up the plan will fail."
"You can't give up, my dear..." Circe told her daughter in her head. "The Queen of Darkness is hoping this works out like we're planning."
"Yes, Mother, I know, but it feels impossible," Esabella narrowed her eyes as they flashed. "I was hoping that spell wouldn't break on that freak like it did."
"I guess we didn't count on the power of true love's kiss." Circe said.
"But there's no way Maleficent truly loves Aurora in this universe." Esabella smirked.
"What do you think, dear?" Circe asked.
"I'm not sure, but there's no way that she could," Esabella replied. "I think I just found an advantage."
"Perfect." Circe smirked.
"I'll think of something, Mother, and I won't let you and the Queen of Darkness down," Esabella vowed. "This I swear!"
"I know, Esabella." Circe said.
Esabella nodded before she soon yawned and went to go back to sleep.
"That's right... Rest yourself, my little Enchantress..." Circe coaxed. "Rest your weary head~"
It was a good night for the most part.
When the next morning came, Aurelia made sure that Aurora was fed and dressed properly while the pixies didn't seem to pay too much attention.
"Aurelia, I wish you could be my big sister for real." Aurora said softly.
"Oh, me too, Aurora," Aurelia replied as she got Aurora ready while the pixies were arguing about nothing. "I've always wanted a sister."
Aurora and Aurelia soon went to leave before telling the pixies that they would be back later.
"Where are you going, dears?" Knotgrass asked.
"Just out... Same place we always visit." Aurelia replied innocently.
"All right," Flittle smiled obliviously. "Make sure you get back before it gets too dark."
"We will." Aurora and Aurelia nodded as they left the three pixies home alone.
"Ready to go back to the Moors?" Aurelia whispered to Aurora.
"I sure am." Aurora smiled quietly.
"Come along now." Aurelia smiled back.
Aurora beamed as they soon went to go and see Maleficent again.
Esabella was soon looking through a spellbook as she glared towards Felicity and Chip.
"You think of having children?" Chip asked Felicity.
"I might have thought about it, yes, especially after the Cotillion before Uma went back under the sea." Felicity giggled bashfully.
"Yuck." Esabella cringed.
Felicity and Chip glanced over.
"Your love nearly makes me sick." Esabella said as she looked through her book.
"And you are horrible." Chip retorted.
"Oh, I'm hurt; whatever shall I do?" Esabella asked as she rolled her eyes.
Chip narrowed his eyes.
"You'll never find that book." Esabella glared toward them.
"Wait, you mean the book Jay mentioned?" Felicity asked.
"How would you know about the book?" Chip asked Esabella.
Esabella just smirked quietly.
"Tell us!" Felicity demanded.
"I don't have to tell the Daughter of Cherry anything," Esabella smirked. "Your mother's adventures are pointless. I don't see why she was chosen to go save the Disney Heroes against the Disney Villains and a lot more after that with her friends. They shouldn't exist and meddle in adventures like that."
Felicity narrowed her eyes firmly.
"Not to mention her pathetic little crush on that Neverland boy," Esbaella chuckled. "Like Peter Pan's even capable of falling in love. Oh, and don't get me started on that friend of hers, Atticus Fudo."
"You're only badmouthing them because they've made happy endings happen in their own ways." Chip told Esabella.
"I don't see the point when these heroes could've found their happy endings all on their own, even without Felicity's mother around," Esabella replied. "That's what my mother always told me anyway."
"They help in their own way." Felicity told her.
Aurora and Aurelia were soon seen going into the Moors. Felicity and Chip looked over once they saw them coming.
"Oh, great," Esabella rolled her eyes before smirking. "The Happy Parade."
"Do all the Fair People have wings?" Aurora asked once she ran into Maleficent.
"Most do." Maleficent nodded.
"Then why don't you?" Aurora then asked. "All the other fairies fly."
"I had wings once, they were stolen from me," Maleficent explained softly. "That's all I wish to say about it."
"What color were they?" Aurora asked. "Were they big?"
"So big they dragged behind me when I walked," Maleficent explained, emotional in memory, but willing to tell the young princess. "And they were strong. They could carry me above the clouds and into the headwinds. And they never faltered, not even once. I could trust them."
Aurora soon touched Maleficent's hand in comfort, but the woman turned at her and just started to walk off, indifferently.
"I still can't get over Maleficent having wings," Felicity commented to herself. "Though I suppose that explains Mother's scrapbook page about her being a dark fairy."
Meanwhile in King Stefan's castle in his bedroom...
We are zoomed in to a close up of Maleficent's wings and where soon Maleficent's screams from years ago could be heard.
Stefan soon woke up from having a bad dream about when he cut Maleficent's wings. "She's coming... She is coming." he then said to himself before he soon splashed some water in the face of one of his servants who was fast asleep, but was now jolted awake. "Where are your workers?" he then demanded.
"Uh... In their beds, Your Majesty." The servant said nervously and shivered from the water.
"Get them back to work without delay." Stefan glared.
"They're exhausted, sire, but I'll have them back to work at first light." The servant replied.
"I need them back to work now." Stefan then growled.
"It's the wee hours." The servant reminded with a frown.
"Aye, aye. "It is in the wee hours, so wake them up." Stefan said quietly as he grabbed the servant.
"Sire?" The servant gulped.
"And get them back to work now!" Stefan sharply demanded before he let go and shoved the servant. "We're running out of time! Go, now!"
The servant soon rushed off in fear.
"Good... Good... Let the hate flow through... That'll be good for you later..." A stranger's voice chuckled once she observed Stefan.
