Author's Note: This story was suggested by danifan3000. I hope I did it justice. I didn't strictly do a Chad and Dizzy meeting, but I liked this exchange a little bit more and I hope you do too.
Evie stood on the edge of the drive nervously bouncing. Doug smirked at his wicked princess, knowing the exact reason for her giddiness. Mal slipped her hand in Evie's mostly to distract her. Sorry the blue-hair VK smiled brightly at her best friend as both shared a secret giggle.
"What do you think she is doing right now," Mal asked Evie. Evie thought about the question.
"By now someone has found the peanut butter cups and are fighting for a chance to try," Carlos answered for them.
"Don't you think it is a little egotistical, Carlos," Ben suggested. "I mean just because that's what you and Jay did doesn't mean they will do the same thing."
"Nah, it's only egotistical if it is coming from Ja- Hey!" Carlos coward from Jay's punch.
Jay smiled at his pseudo-brother and answered with a question of his own, "How would you act if you found heaven? Something that islanders have never experienced before.
Ben shrugged and conceded to the reforming villains. Mal slinked her arms around her boy king's waist and flash him a coy smile, "Let's just keep the strawberries from them okay, Your Highness?" She felt a shiver of desire run down his spine, a reaction that didn't take long for her to find and she exploits whenever she can. She is a villain after all.
"Whatever you ask, my lady," Ben whispered.
"Oh come on you two," Jay prodded, "You have a castle with plenty of empty rooms, find one." Ben and Mal laughed and resumed their welcoming positions.
Evie finally turned to Mal with her answer, "I think right now she is sitting in a corner trying very hard to suppress her happiness, so that she will present herself with poise. We used to practice it all the time when I would visit to help her out with the salon."
"I am so sorry I am late," came the hurried and tired voice of the Good Fairy offspring, Jane. "I had a hundred little problems pop up at the VK reception and of course no one could problem solve themselves. I feel-" Carlos cut off her vent session with a hug. She melted into his arms knowing that for the moment she could breathe and not worry about punch portions or straight streamers.
"I'm glad you made it," Carlos said. The statement was the perfect balm to her rough morning. Evie and Mal patted her back showing her that they were happy she was here.
Lonnie finally came up and took her spot next to Jay, "Looks like I am just in time."
The Auradon limo flags flashed through the bushes. For every time Ben brought another wave of VK's the original VK's couldn't help but feel proud that they smuggled another generation from the grasp of such hateful parents. This wave had a particularly special VK in its mitts and Evie was determined to be the first person this villain sees when that door opens.
"EVIE!"
"DIZZY!" Evie's arms crushed the petite little wacko to her chest. Tears sprang into her eyes by just holding Dizzy Tremaine.
The others found a way to file out around the hug reunion. Carlos introduced Jane to Harry and Jace, the sons of Horace and Jasper and his friends from the isle. Jay officially introduced Lonnie to Gil, the youngest son of Gaston. Mal introduced Avarice, the daughter of Madame Medusa, to King Ben. Doug cleared his throat behind Evie, reminding her of the world outside of them.
"Oh Doug," Evie snickered, "I'm sorry. Doug this is Dizzy Tremaine, Dizzy this is Douglas Dwarf, my boyfriend."
"But-"
"Much better than a prince," Evie assured her. Doug stood a little taller, and Evie smiled much brighter. "Come on, Doug and I will show you around."
"I have to do one thing first," Dizzy halted. No warning at all she pulled Ben and Mal into the biggest hug her little arms could muster. "Thank you! Thank you King Ben for bring me here."
"My pleasure, Miss Tremaine," Ben reciprocated. "I am glad that you wanted to join us."
"Don't let him fool ya," Mal spoke up. "He's happy that someone else with salon talents will be able to take over hairstyles of the princess. That's frees me up to do my duties as Lady of the court." Ben cleared his throat. "That's the signal for me to stop talking." Dizzy caught Mal's wink and notice that love in Ben's eyes as he watched Mal converse with Dizzy. Dizzy knew that Auradon would truly be a magical place.
The new VK's had 48 hours to settle in and get their baring about them. Dizzy and Avarice moved into the room across from Evie and Mal, while Harry and Jace were unpacking in a room next to Carlos and Jay's suite. Most of the AK's hadn't come back from Auradon tours (Family vacation weekends when the royal families tour the lands of Auradon to keep up relations), but they were slowly trickling in and were interested in meeting the new villains.
On Monday, Dizzy found Evie and Mal at Mal's locker and went to join them. She loved that she was greeted warmly by the former Evil Fairy. A year ago she would've trembled in her boots just trying to look at Mal, and now Mal opened her arms to her. "How was the first couple of classes," Mal asked.
"I am a cinch to get an A in Remedial Goodness. But boy there are some Auradon kids that could use a couple of Goodness Classes."
Evie smiled, "I take it you met Audrey. I was hoping to be there with you when you did."
"No I met some for full of himself, curly hair prince. He looked in a mirror more in one hour then you ever did in one day," Dizzy pouted. "I wanted to slap his perfect princely face when he made a comment about my hair."
"Chad," Mal and Evie announced together. It dawned on both of them at once that Dizzy didn't know the connection between herself and Chad, but they didn't need to explain because a shadow fell over them halting all conversation. Evie and Dizzy watched Mal turn as they all met a beautiful queen that stood over them. The sun glistened perfectly off her glass crown, her soft round features glowed and her eyes scanned each of them with loving appraisal.
"Hello Lady Mal," the Queen spoke.
"Your Highness," Mal bowed which forced the other two to follow in suit. "What brings you to Auradon Prep?"
"King Ben's latest proclaimation. I understand that a new batch of villains has arrived and among them is a step niece of mine."
Dizzy gasped, Cinderella's eyes fell on the trembling VK. "Queen Cinderella," Mal began, "may I introduce to you Dizzy Tremaine, Drisella's daughter."
Dizzy froze as the words sunk in. She had always heard about Cinderella and her laziness. Her grandmother wouldn't stop comparing them. But seeing the queen for herself was more than Dizzy's little heart could take. She felt sorry for everything she had never done. She took on all of her mother's atrocities and feared that Cinderella had come to send her back to the isle. Tears of fear slid down Dizzy's cheeks.
"Miss Dizzy," the queen knelt to her level. "I am your aunt Cinderella."
Dizzy busted into sobs, "Please don't send me back ma'am. I am sorry for what my mother did to you."
"Oh my," Cinderella reached out to her. Evie about went into protective big sister mode, but she knew that Cinderella was kind unlike her spoiled son. "Dizzy, I'm not going to send you back. I am here to extend an invitation to you. My husband and I would like to welcome you to the family. We were wondering if you would come to our castle on Friday and spend the weekend with us?"
Dizzy's smile had a radiance of its own. She had a family, people that genuinely wanted her in their lives. She couldn't speak so she let her nod speak for itself.
"Mummy," Chad called to her. "What are you doing here?" Dizzy's mode change once again but this time in defense. Cinderella looked at her son with a smile, but not as bright as it was when talking to Dizzy.
"I am here because your father and I wanted to invite Dizzy to the castle this weekend."
"Have we joined a VK outreach group," Chad asked sarcastically.
Cinderella's eyes narrowed on him. She shot up an eyebrow and watched her son's expression as she explained, "Chad meet your cousin, Dizzy Tremaine."
Chad's face dropped in horror at the realization of who he'd been teasing earlier. He tried to cover his tracks but he knew no excuse would make up for his Charmless behavior. He agreed that he would bring her home with him this weekend, and Cinderella informed him that he and his father would be having a long talk about his behavior lately.
"Dizzy it is wonderful to meet you," the queen hugged her. "Mal and Evie it is always a pleasure." The two girls bowed. "Chad, see you this weekend," she whispered as she kissed his cheek. When the Charming's disappeared Dizzy let out a huge breath that she had be holding for so long.
"Diz-"
"I HAVE A FAMILY!"
