Chapter 5
Theme 50: Taking the Blame
Mal/Jay
Getting in trouble on the Isle of the Lost was always one of the worst things any villain kid could face.
But, then again, the villain kids from the Isle of the Lost were pretty much use to getting in trouble and taking punishments.
So, when Mal and Jay stood in the middle of King Ben's office with Fairy Godmother and the former King Beast and Queen Bell, well, the two villains were slightly frightened, but ready for their punishments.
"– And, why were you two inside the Chemistry Lab at midnight?" King Ben himself had asked as he eyed Mal and Jay.
A moment of silence surrounded all six.
Finally; what seemed like hours (which was really only five minutes) Mal began to speak up. "W-We w-were trying t-to – "Mal began to stutter as she shook slightly at the look she received from Ben.
"– You were trying to what? – "Former King Beast questioned as he slammed his fist into his hand and eyed Mal and Jay. "– Kill us all!?" Beast questioned as he stepped forward making Mal and Jay step backwards.
Ben slammed his hand on his desk. "Enough! Father – "Ben stated as he turned and eyed his dad. "– I'm king and I'm in charge here. And, you will NOT accuse Mal or Jay of that kind of thing in this room! Understand!?" Ben questioned as he and Beast stared at one another while Mal, Jay, Fairy Godmother and Bell all watched with surprise.
Finally; Beast spoke up. "But, Ben – "Beast began as Ben interrupted him.
Ben shook his head and frowned slightly. "Understand!?" Ben demanded once more as he and Beast eyed one another still.
"Fine…" Beast mumbled as he stepped back to his original spot. "…Carry on." Beast finished as he frowned also and crossed his arms while he now avoided eye contact with anyone else in the room.
Ben smiled slightly and turned to face Mal and Jay. "Now; I know there must be a real reason you were breaking into the Chemistry Lab; so, I'll give you a chance to tell us. Obviously; you might not want to of course, but please remember, that it's a safe haven in my office." Ben explained as he smiled at Mal and Jay. "This is not the Isle; so, nothing will happen to you under my watch." Ben finished as he sighed and eyed the two.
Silence came over the room again. Finally; Jay spoke up this time. "We were trying to find ingredients for a potion." Jay explained as Mal smacked him on the arm and sent him a death glare, he frowned and sent her a "were telling the truth so get over it" kind of look. That had made Mal frown and cross her arms with annoyance…
"– And, what kind of potion were you trying to make and why?" Ben questioned as he smiled (because of the fact that Jay told him the truth instead of lying) while he watched Mal pout slightly.
"It was a Transformation Potion." Jay continued to explain as he and Mal hung their heads obviously embarrassed by the truth.
Jay was about to open his mouth when Mal interrupted him and beat him to the explanation. "The potion was supposed to help us be good instead of evil." Mal finished as she frowned.
"Oh – "Fairy Godmother spoke up instantly as she felt shock and hurt. "– Your poor things! Why would you want to make such a potion!? You know your good kids and not at all like your parents, right?" Fairy Godmother asked with concern and worry as she looked back and forth between Mal and Jay in thought.
"Pft, tell that to all the prissy princes and princesses who say otherwise." Mal finished as she crossed her arms and shifted her feet oddly.
Ben straightened up at Mal's commented and frowned again. "I'll make sure to have a talk with the whole school about bullying." Ben explained as he sighed (he really thought the students at Auradon Prep would know better than to judge the VK's). "Until then, you two will serve a day of detention with Fairy Godmother – "Ben began as Mal and Jay interrupted him.
"– WHAT!? – "Mal and Jay questioned in annoyance as they eyed Ben with surprise.
"B-But you told u-us n-nothing would h-happen!" Mal defended as she groaned and placed her hands on her hips and curled her lip slightly.
"– I meant nothing bad would happen to you." Ben explained simply. "You guys may be in Auradon; but you still need to learn that there are rules here and that if you break them, there are consequences. And, not like the ones you had back at home." Ben finished smiled softly at them in hopes to let them realize they weren't going to get into too much trouble.
"W-Wait – "Jay began as he and Mal eyed one another and then Ben.
"– Y-You're n-not going t-to be-beat u-us?" Jay questioned as his face scrunched up in confusion at the thought as Mal stepped slightly behind him for protection.
Another silence came over the room. During the sudden silence, everyone had a different reaction. Fairy Godmother had gasped as soon as Jay asked Ben his question and covered her mouth with her hands. Bell's mouth had dropped open as she gasped in surprise (Sort of like when she found out Ben was with Mal) and Beast allowed his eyes to widen and stare at the two VK's in surprise and confusion.
When no one answer Jay's question, Jay spoke up again. "B-Because if you a-are g-going to be-beat us, then be-beat me! D-Don't p-punish Mal." Jay stated as he held up his hands in defense and stood in front of Mal ready to protect her and take the fall for both of them. "I-It was my i-idea! P-Please, d-don't h-hurt Mal." Jay finished as he sent King Ben, Fairy Godmother, Bell and Beast a pleading look.
Another silence as everyone stared at the two villain kids in surprise and shock. Ben then moved from around behind his desk and held a hand out to Jay and Mal ready to comfort them both. Instead, Ben watched with guilt and hurt as Jay stepped more in front of Mal and the two-tensed ready for whatever Ben was going to throw towards them. "Jay – "Ben stated as he dropped his hand and took a step back from his two friends. " – The first you thing you need to know about Auradon is that we don't beat people because they get in trouble. In fact, nothing like that at all happens here. Auradon is a safe haven for you guys; I promise you that there is no beating involved." Ben finished as he bit the bottom of his lip in thought and allowed his arms to hang by his side while he continued to watch Mal and Jay's movements.
Mal looked over Jay's shoulder. "So; you're n-not going to h-hurt us?" Mal questioned softly as she looked back and forth between everyone with suspicion.
Ben shook his head, "No; no one is!" Ben finished as he smiled. "You're safe here in Auradon. I don't know what happened to you guys back on the Isle, but whatever it was, that won't happen here. We don't do that kind of thing." Ben finished explaining as he watched Mal began to slowly step out from behind Jay.
"Well then…" Jay began as he held a look of confusion. "…What's detention?" Jay questioned in hopes of it not being like their detention back on the Isle.
"Detention is just that, detention. All you'll do is just sit in a class room with Fairy Godmother for an hour going over extra Remidea Goodness. Simple as that." Ben finished as he smiled at the two VK's.
"Oh, well then, we can do that." Mal stated with a pft kind of noise and a sigh of relief. "This detention sounds so much better then detention we dealt with back home." Mal finished as she slumped her shoulders and eyed Jay who nodded in agreement and seemed to be in a better mood too from the explanation.
"What was your detention back on the Isle?" Bell spoke up with confusion and slight interest. "I mean, if it's okay with me asking." Bell interjected quickly as she eyed the two with thought.
"It's cool." Mal stated as she sighed. "Detention on the Isle was not sitting in a class room. In fact, it was more like standing in front of the whole school and being whipped practically to death." Mal explained as she and Jay frowned at the memories while everyone continued to eye them in shock. "– And if you survived, you were lucky. But if not, then your body was tossed into the sea and no one ever spoke your name again." Mal finished with a frown as she Jay eyed one another. Mal sighed, "We lost a lot of good villain kids that way." Mal finished as she shook her head and tried to remove the memories.
While the silence came over them, the others in the room felt their heart break. Did villains really do that do their kids? Did they really not care about them? How did villain kids keep from getting detention then?
It was obvious they still had a lot to learn about the Isle of the Lost.
Ben clapped his hands suddenly to get everyone's attention and break the awkward silence. "Well, I can promise you nothing like that will ever happen! Forty-five minutes in a class room with Fairy Godmother and then your punishment is dropped. Sound good?" Ben questioned as he raised an eyebrow and smiled once more.
Mal and Jay nodded their heads.
Fairy Godmother smiled, "Good; then I'll see you kids tomorrow after school at three." Fairy Godmother finished as she patted Mal on the shoulder only to turn and walk out of the room.
Ben watched and waited until Fairy Godmother was out of the room to continue. "Well then, that's settled. Tomorrow at three you'll serve detention. Until then, I'll set up an assembly to talk to the others about bullying. And, in the meantime – "Ben explained as he turned to face Mal and Jay. "– Please remember, that you two along with Evie and Carlos can always come to me about anything and I mean anything. You guys are good and nothing like your parents and I want you to remember that as long as you're here. Ignore the other students, because I can promise you that what their saying is not true. Understand?" Ben finished as he smiled. Mal and Jay nodded and smiled at their friend/king. "Good – "Ben finished as he clapped his hands together. "– Then you two are free to go. I'll see you around?" Ben finished as he eyed his friends.
"Yup; see you around." Mal finished as she and Jay smiled at Ben.
With that, the two villain kids turned and headed out of the room and back to their daily schedule.
Once the two were out of the room though, Mal stopped and turned to Jay…
"Hey – "Mal stated making Jay stop in his tracks. "– Thanks for having my back in there. You really didn't have to cover for me or take any beatings for me, but you were willing to do so. So; thanks."
Mal finished as she smiled.
Jay looked at her in surprise, but smiled anyway. "Of course! Sure, this may be Auradon, but were still part of the Core Four and we always look out for one another no matter what the situation is."
Jay finished as he shrugged and smiled too.
Mal laughed to herself as she allowed her smiled to grow and she playfully hit Jay on the arm. "Come on, let's go find Carlos and Evie. I think it's time we have a group talk about our issues from the past week." Mal finished as she Jay eyed one another. With that, Mal grinned, crossed her arms, turned and took off towards their dorm rooms. And, all Jay could do was keep his smile and follow right behind Mal…
