The day of the coronation had finally arrived Lily's dresses hung neatly on the front her wardrobe.
A teal floor length gown and a coattail dress for the after party both detailed with crystals and diamonds along the bust and the single shoulder.
Her mother had wanted to wear something with the royal colors, royal blue and canary yellow, as the rest of the royal family would be. She was princess Liliana she never did things by the book.
The princess in question was sitting by her bedroom window looking out onto the courtyard lost in thought.
"Princess it's time you get ready for the coronation" spoke Jill a handmaiden of the royal family
"Have my friends arrived?"
"Yes, Princess and Evangeline and Princess Chloe have just arrived from Auradon prep. They are in the foyer" Lily rushed past her to see her friends.
"Lily" Chloe squealed while running
"It's finally here!" Chloe
"The coronation?" Lily asked confused, what else was there?
"Well that, and the biggest party of the year!"
Lily and Eva roll their eyes. Typical Chloe.
"Come on we have no time to waste!" Chloe grabbed the other girls' hands and drag them up to a room next to Lily's where the royal hairstylist was waiting.
One hair stylist, makeup artist, fresh mani, and pedi later she was practically glowing.
Lily stood next to her mother in a floor length teal gown. Her hair half up in a twisted bun as the rest of her hair hung down in loose curls that framed her face. She smiled as she saw ben and Mal's carriage drive up. Cameras were flashing left and right.
"About the other day," Mal started to say
"I told ben this wasn't going to be easy" The king replied
"But you also told me that a king had to believe in himself even when it isn't easy" ben smiles up at their father.
"I did" Lily giggles at her father's confusion as her mother slaps her father's arm
"I did how wise of me"
"Ben we are very proud of you. You keep listening to your heart" Her mother steps forward
"Thanks, mom"
"You're going to make a fine king" their father puts ben on the shoulder and then offers and arm to their mother as they walk away to take their places.
"Wish me luck," ben says to Mal
Mal is then escorted by an attendant only lily is left remaining
Ben gives Lily a hug before he enters the cathedral
"You're going to be a great king!" she tells him
"She gave me the antidote" he whispers into her ear as to not be overheard
Lily looks at her brother trying to disguise the shock on her face as thousands of people were watching. He smiles at her as prepares to enter the cathedral. Lily rushes to her spot her next to her mother's throne. As her brother walked to his destiny she couldn't help but smile
The fairy godmother then removed Kings Beast's crown and placed it on the kneeling ben before her
"Do you solemnly swear to govern the people of Auradon with, all long as you shall reign?"
"I solemnly do swear"
"Then it is my honor and my joy to bless our new…."
Lily keeps an eye on Mal to see what she will do, but to her surprise suddenly Jane grabs the wand out of her own mother's hand. Jane can't control the power of the wand as everyone around ducks from the exploding magic ricocheting across the room.
"bibity bobity boo!" Jane yells over and over again Lily is protected behind her parents as she clutches to her other's arm. Lily quickly scans the room for her friends making sure they are safe, but she can't make them out from the panicked crowd
Mal suddenly runs up and takes the wand right out of Jane's hands. This was it the final decision. Lily prayed that ben was right.
"Mal give me the wand"
"Get back"
"It's okay"
"Ben I said get back!
"I told you so," Audrey says Lily glares at her not helping she thinks. Lily looks back at Mal and sees that the other VK's have arrived behind her.
"Let's go" Carlos
"Avenge time" Jay
"You really want to do this?" ben
"We have no choice ben, our parents…"
"Your parents made their choice now you make yours"
"I think I want to be good"
"You are good," ben says stepping toward Mal
"How do you know that?!" Mal yells out in distress
"Because I'm listening to my heart"
"I want to listen to my heart too" she then turns to her friends
"And my heart is telling me that we are not our parents. I mean stealing thing doesn't make you happy. Tourney and victory pizza with the team make you happy" Lily could have sworn she saw Jay look at her when Mal started talking about things that made him happy, but she could have been mistaken.
"And you, scratching dude's belly make you happy who would have thought" Mal chuckles through her tears
"And Evie you do not have to play dumb to get a guy. You are so smart
I don't want to take over the world with evil. That doesn't make me happy. I want to go to school and be with ben." she says turning to look at him "Because ben makes me really happy. Us being friends makes me really happy not destroying things. I choose good you guys." Lily watches as Mal puts her fist in the center of the circle.
"I choose good to"
"I choose good" Evie says placing her fist next to Mal's
"So just to be clear we don't have to be worried about how really mad out parents will be? Cause they will be really, really mad"
"Your parents can't reach you here" ben reassured Carlos
"Okay then good" then he too joins his friends. Lily let out a sigh of relief it was finally over!
Just as mal was about to return wand to the Fairy godmother a puff of green smoke circles the rooms till it land dead center of the aisle.
"I'm back" Maleficent emerges with a singsong voice. Lily's Father steps out in front of her and her mother.
"It can't be" The fairy godmother gasps
"Go away mother" Mal says
"She's funny… very funny here wand me" Maleficent evilly laughs at her daughter's words
"No!" Mal stands defiant, but to no avail as her mother summons the wand out of Mal's hand. Lily recoils in fear as Maleficent raises the wand.
"bibity bobity boo" magic covers the room freezing everyone in place.
These are the last words Lily hears as she is frozen in time, unable to move. The next thing she knew Mal had turned her own mother into the size of a lizard. Seeing that her family is okay her thoughts quickly turn to her friends. Lily rushes to check on Chloe and Eva. Both girls in question are a little shaken but are perfectly fine.
"Chloe? Eva?!" Lily frantically searched through the crowd
"Clam down we're right here" Chloe Lily turned to see her friends. She rushes to hug them
"And we're ok" Eva reassures Lily
"Best coronation yet!" Chloe the girls hug laughing
Lily could feel someone watching her she quickly turns and catches Jay's eyes from across the room. She starts to walk over as the rest of the world melts away.
"Hey!" Lily is startled and the moment quickly ends "careful that's my mom" Lily watches as Mal fusses over the attendant who placed the glass case over her now lizard sized mother.
She see her brother with the other villain kids and goes to join them
They all put their arms around each other grinning from ear to ear
"Let's get this party started!" Jay shouts happily
"Ohay, ohay hey!" they all shout together
