A/N: And I'm back with a new chapter! I had nothing much to say, so let's get this new chapter started!
Disclaimer: I don't own Ed, Edd n Eddy and Ever After High and by extension, My Little Pony, Total Drama, Scott Pilgrim vs the World, RWBY, Dan VS. and Monster High.
"Welcome friends, to the world of Ever After High." the female narrator greeted, "Where today, we're telling the tale of a most special event: Thronecoming." she announced.
"A school holiday where Ever After High presents the fairytale students at their best." the male narrator spoke, "It all starts with a Thronecoming parade..." he said.
"And who can forget the big game, the Bookball Championship!" the female narrator added.
"...Or, the Thronecoming dance-" the male narrator started.
"-where a Thronecoming Queen and King will be crowned." the female narrator finished.
"Ever After High does have a spellsworth of students, who fit that slipper..." the male narrator mused.
It was a fine morning at Ever After High as we see students making towards the aforementioned establishment of fairytale education. At the courtyard, we see Blondie Lockes and Duchess Swan having a conversation when Briar Beauty, Holly O'Hair and Poppy O'Hair walking behind when they came across with Hopper Croakington II, Briar then greeted the prince which made him nervous, turning him into a frog in the process.
In the school's hallway, we see Ashlynn Ella and Hunter Hunstman hanging out at the former's locker, Hunter then offered Ashlynn some shoes much to her delight, she then opens her locker and finds a lot shoes falling out from it.
Meanwhile at another locker, we see Dexter Charming and Daring Charming having a conversation, "And this year, all the voting is gonna be on the MirrorNet!" Dexter exclaimed, "Me and Humphrey Dumpty are in charge of it." he said while holding up his MirrorPad.
"Let me save you some time, little bro." Daring spoke while picking up Dexter's MirrorPad and drops it down, "I'm quite certain I'll be named Thronecoming King. After all, I am handsome." he boasted with a grin as Dexter crosses his arms in annoyance.
At another side of the hall, we see Alejandro Burromuerto moping the floor. He is currently wearing a dark-green jumpsuit over a white t-shirt, black shoes and a dark-green cap.
Alejandro then places the mop in a bucket of water before letting out a sigh, "Why me?'' he muttered in annoyance.
"Hey, Al!" a voice called out as the Spanish arc villain turns around to see Eddy Skipper McGee walking towards him, "How is it going?'' he asked.
Alejandro turns to him with a blank look, "Horrible." he replied, "I can't believe you guys got me into a janitorial position in this school!" he complained.
Eddy shrugged his shoulders, "Hey... it's better than doing nothing." he pointed out, "Anyway... Little Miss Tea-Cap needed some assistance for her float. Care to give her a hand?'' he asked.
Alejandro sighed, "I don't have a choice do I.'' he muttered in defeat.
Suddenly, the voice of Ms. Trollsworth spoke through the P.A. system, "Raven Queen, please report to the Headmaster's office at once." she reported.
"Huh? I wonder what the headmaster needs from her?'' Alejandro mused.
Eddy facefaulted, "Probably something to get her accept her ill-fated destiny.'' he muttered in reply.
Later that day at the dorms, we go to Briar and Ashlynn's room where the latter selecting a pair of shoes and former sewing up a skirt on her bed.
"You ready?" Ashlynn asked sitting right next to Briar, "I can't wait to finish my float! And I did it all without harming a single flower!" she exclaimed in glee.
"Harming a flower?" Briar asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Hey, plants have feelings too, you know." Ashlynn pointed out with a grin.
Briar giggled, "You go ahead." she insisted, "I just need to sew up this skirt." she said going back on sewing her skirt.
Ashlynn stood up, "Okay, see you there!" she said before leaving the room.
As Briar works on her skirt, she accidentally stab her finger with the needle, "Ow, my finger!'' she yelped, "Ah!" she gasped when suddenly felt sleepy, yawning ob the process before falling down to her bed, snoring loudly in her sleep.
Meanwhile at the Grimmnasium, we see everyone helping set up the gym for the Thronecoming dance preparation. Eddy and Alejandro were there setting up some tables to the sides, C.A. Cupid is setting up a flower vase at one table, Madeline Hatter is seen carrying around a string of balloons while Hopper clings on Tiny's vines to set a props on one of the streamers, Cedar Wood is seen setting up a decoration on a header while standing on a ladder, two boys and a goat is seen pulling up a large disco ball and by a tree, we see Holly putting decorations on a balcony while Poppy places an electric plug together while clinging on her twin's hair.
Blondie then arrives with a boxes of pizzas in hand, she then placed on one table, "Ooh! Who wants pizza?" she offered while opening a box as Holly and Poppy jumps down from the low-heightened balcony, "I sampled a slice and it is just right!" she stated.
Cerise Hood then pops out from under the table, "Oh, meat lovers pizza." she said before grabbing one slice and putting it in her mouth, she then closes the box's lid and grabs it, she let's out a growl before walking off, taking the entire pizza box away.
Holly then notices something that made her smile, "Look! Our fairytale princes are talking strategy for the big game." she pointed out while looking at Dexter, Daring, Hunter and Sparrow Hood at the stage, "Don't you just love it when they act all heroic?" she asked dreamily with hands under her chin and her elbows resting on the table.
At the stage, the boys are indeed talking about the big name, "We're never gonna beat Beanstalk High at bookball!" Dexter exclaimed in panic.
Daring then spoke, "Oh, little brother." he cooed, "Don't be such a worrier!" he advised, "How tough can it be to beat a bunch of little beans, huh?" he asked.
"Beanstalk High is filled with giants, Daring. Not beans." Hunter clarified.
Daring chuckled nervously, "Well, then we are in a lot of trouble." he pointed out while nudging Hunter with his elbow, "Aren't we?" he asked with a chuckle.
"They're gonna kick our tails, yeah!" Sparrow sang while awkwardly dancing his posterior in front of Hunter and Daring.
Cerise then walks towards them, "Hey, guys." she greeted, "Y'know, I was thinking: maybe I'd try out for the bookball team. I'm wicked fast." she stated while offering pizza to the boys.
"Oh, well, that sounds good..." Dexter tried to say as Daring took a piece out from the box.
"But you're a girl, oh!" Sparrow interrupted.
Cerise then stood up and glares at Sparrow, "So? What does that have to do with it?" she demanded in annoyance.
Daring then spoke, "Sorry, Cerise." he apologized, "Damsels are for saving. Not playing fairytale-back." he stated and was about to take a bite out of his pizza but Cerise swipes it away from his hand, surprising him.
Cerise then walks off, "Boys!" she growled in annoyance.
The boys watches her go in confusion as Tiny walks in, "Hi, Tiny." the boys greeted.
"Guys! I think I know how we can win a game against the Giants!" Tiny claimed, "Huddle up!" he egged making the boys smile.
Meanwhile, Cerise growls and angrily throws her pizza box into the bin as she walks pass-by Eddy and Alejandro, the boys looks back at her in confusion, "Huh? What's up with her?'' the latter asked.
"Who knows." Eddy replied. The boys then approaches one table where Blondie, Holly and Poppy are having a conversation, "Hey girls.'' he greeted, "Oooh! Pizza.'' he cooed before taking one.
"Hey, Eddy!" Poppy greeted back with a smile, "How's it going?'' she asked.
Eddy took a bite of his pizza, "Just finished helping Maddie with her float.'' he replied, "Al and I also finished setting up some tables from the side.'' he added.
Holly then turns to Alejandro, "Still can't believe you accepted working as a janitor here.'' she pointed out.
Alejandro sighed in response, "Well... like Eddy just said... it's better than doing nothing." he stated.
"So, what are you going to do at the Thronecoming, Eddy?" Poppy asked, "Are you gonna sing?'' she guessed.
Eddy nodded, "You bet I do!" he replied with a big grin, "Plus..." he said before pulling Alejandro next to him, "I'm having a duet with Al over here.'' he added with a grin, "Glad that the headmaster agreed to allow him to perform alongside myself.'' he stated.
Blondie let's out a gasp, "This janitor can sing?'' she asked in surprise.
Alejandro facefaulted, "Janitors have talents too you know.'' he pointed out, "And yeah... I can sing." he confirmed, "I just don't do it too often.'' he admitted.
"Wow." Poppy said in awe, "I wonder what kind of song we'll get to hear in your performance." she thought out loud.
Eddy grinned, "You'll see.'' he mused.
Later that night back at the dorms, we see Ashlynn returning from float-building, she looks around her dorm and saw Briar snoring on a bed.
"Briar?" Ashlynn called in a whispering tone only to get a snore as a response, Ashlynn approaches her before turning on the light, she then proceeds to shake her friend's arm, "Briar!" she tried to wake her up but to no avail.
Ashlynn then grabs Briar's alarm clock and put it next to her, "GET UP!" the alarm clock shouted.
Briar jolted upward while letting out a gasp, "Oh no." she muttered in panic, "How long have I been asleep?" she asked.
"Well, you missed float-building." Ashlynn pointed out.
"But that's one of the best parties of the year!" Briar said in disappointment.
"It's okay." Ashlynn reassured, "It's not like-" she tried to say but was interrupted.
"No. It's not okay! " Briar argued standing up before pacing around, "Is this what it's gonna be like when I sleep for a hundred years?" she asked, "I'm gonna miss out on all the fun, and my friends!" she exclaimed with a worried look.
Ashlynn then puts her hand on Briar's shoulder, "You always knew this was gonna happen; that you were going to be the next Sleeping Beauty." she pointed out.
"I know! But now, it just feels... real." Briar claimed.
"Well, you haven't signed the Storybook of Legends yet." Ashlynn pointed out while walking over to the windowsill.
Briar let's out a gasp, "Ashlynn!'' she called out.
"Look, Briar, you wouldn't be the first person to question your destiny." Ashlynn said, "I mean, I already signed and I kinda wish I hadn't." she admitted, "Who knows what's gonna happen to Hunter and me?'' she said in concern.
Briar then stood next to her, "So, you're saying I shouldn't sign; I should... rebel?" she pointed out.
"I'm saying that you have choices." Ashlynn replied before walking back as Briar looks out the window with a thoughtful look.
Meanwhile in another window from the dorm, we see Raven Queen looking out while rolling an apple using her finger with a thoughtful expression on her.
Her conversation with Apple White earlier is still fresh in her mind, "Did I make the wrong choice?" Raven asked no one in particular when suddenly, the apple drops from the windowsill by accident and hits someone on the head.
"Hey! Who threw that!" a voice demanded causing Raven to take a step backward.
Meanwhile in the streets of Village of the Book End, we see Ed, Rolf, Sunset Shimmer, Rainbow Dash and Applejack making their way back to the Wonderland Haberdashery and Tea Shoppe after a few hours of well searching.
"Ugh! Why can't that damn well stay still in one place for once!" Rainbow complained.
"Well... it is a magical well." Sunset pointed out, "A sentient one to boot.'' she added.
"We'll just continue searching tomorrow." Applejack spoke, "Right now, ah wanna rest after a long day of work.'' she stated.
Rolf nodded, "Rolf agrees, the son of shepherd needs his daily sustenance called sleep.'' he stated.
The five then arrives at the Wonderland Haberdashery and Tea Shoppe, the Tea Shoppe has a red wooden door and a bell that rings when the door is opened. The walls and ceiling of the shop are covered with hats and hooks and even brightly painted doors of different shapes and sizes. Although the floor doesn't have those things it is instead packed with tea tables and chairs.
Upon entering the place, they were greeted by a tall man. The man has a short curly brown hair, green-blue eyes, buck teeth and two earrings in his left ear. He wears a very colorful attire and top hat. This is the Mad Hatter, the father of Madeline Hatter.
"Good evening, lads and ladettes!" the Mad Hatter greeted cheerfully,
"Good evening to you, too, Mister Hatter." Sunset greeted back, "Is Al back already?'' she asked.
The Mad Hatter nodded, "Indeed! Al is already in his room asleep.'' he replied, "So... how was your search for the well?'' he asked.
Applejack shook her head, "Still nothing, sir.'' she replied.
"Well... that's rather unfortunate." the Mad Hatter said before clapping his hands, "Well... off the bed, children, you still have work tomorrow.'' he pointed out, "Especially you, Big Ed, we got tons of customers coming tomorrow!" he cheered.
Ed gave him a salute, "Aye-aye, boss!" he complied with a big grin.
And that's it for this chapter! Please look forward for the next one.
