Chapter 6: Plan Of Action
Quick Disclaimer: I do not own anything Disney, characters, attractions or otherwise. I only own my 10 OC's and the unfolding plot of this story, so no flames please!
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Third Person P.O.V.
"I'm glad you asked, Carmen" said Cinderella, standing up while Snow White pulled herself together. "For a long time now, we have tried to hold back this unnamed evil, but we as Disney characters can no longer stop it. And with Mickey gone our resistance is crumbling. That is why we have sent for you girls, for you can help us in more ways then you know." She looked out the window, surveying the park.
"But why us? How we any different?" asked Ivy, not quite understanding.
"Because you girls understand the true magic of this place, not just the façade that many see.
"If you didn't would you have come, given your ages and having much better things to do?" asked Jasmine, looking at each girl individually. The girls knew what she said was right. They were all at or around the age when reality began to absorb once were pure and carefree ways of life. When adults would look down their noses and demand you put away childish things. When magic becomes less tangible and less graspable a person aged. They had all felt it as soon as they stepped into the park. A sense of magic they hadn't felt in a long time.
"Well, since presumably none of us want this place destroyed, and ultimately want stay alive, tell us the plan" said Julia, already going into strategy mode. Cinderella pulled out a map and laid it one the table.
"We have decided that the first priorities too find the heroes. We don't have much of an advantage, besides numbers, and we need them fast."
"No one's arguing with you there Cinderella" said Chloe, liking the idea of firepower.
"We need to split into groups and spread out. These are the groups. Learn them and their locations." She passed around papers that looked like this:
Carmen and Pocahontas: Tom Sawyers Island
Ivy and Jasmine: The Haunted Mansion
Carly and Belle: Prince Charming's Regal Carrousel
Kim and Snow White: Mickey's Country House
Ashley and Tiana: Space Mountain
Julia and Mulan: Pirates Of The Caribbean
Chloe and Ariel: Peter Pan's Flight
Zoey and Rapunzel: Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin
April and Cinderella: Stitch's Great Escape
Emily and Aurora: Cinderella Castle
"Those are the groups. Everyone move out after dark. " said Cinderella, walking over to April, leaving no time for conversation. The ten girls looked at each other. What was going to happen now?
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Carmen's P.O.V.
After we had split apart, I walked over to a window, which gave me a wonderful view of the park, the late afternoon sunlight seeming chilly despite the glow it gave the buildings. I looked at all the masses of people, milling around the attractions, none of them realizing how real all of this was. And about an hour ago, I had been one of them. Blissfully ignorant but in danger.
"Beautiful isn't it?" said a voice, and I turned to Cinderella, who looked over the park sadly.
"Yes. I still can't believe that all of this is real. I always hoped magic was still alive somewhere, but this… I still can't wrap my head around all this. I mean, why us?" I asked, Cinderella shaking her head. She really was pretty, but it was strange to see her nervous. Sure the princesses had been shown happy, scared and sad, but for them to stand next to you in real life and look like that, it was very odd.
"You and the others are very important Carmen. As children grow up and become more immersed in the world and how it works, they begin to lose their belief in what they can't always see. You and the other girls are special in that while you have become more worldly, you haven't lost touch with that belief. You still believe in something that isn't thought to be real. If you didn't, the invitation never would have found you," she said, and I felt my heart start to pound.
"I know it's a lot to ask, especially so suddenly, but even here in the Disney Kingdom, everything happens for a reason. I may have just met you, but I already believe in you, just like you and the others believe in us," she said, putting a comforting hand on my shoulder before moving away, her silvery blue dress floating behind her. I looked back out the window, my heart rate still frantic. What had we gotten ourselves into?
Good? Bad? Let me know, because reviews are my main reason for writing this story. Yes I'd love to meet the real princesses, wouldn't you? See you next time!
