Magic Mirror on the Blog!

I hear rumors of the annual Back to School party tonight in a secret location. I wonder just whom will be the fairest of them all?

I expect lots of juicy details and pictures. You know, what to do. Snap those pictures, send in those secrets and let Mirror show all.

Oh, and I promise to be in attendance myself.

Be on your baddest behavior ;)

Bippity Boppity!

"Oh, a party!" Rapuzel bounced on her bed excitedly as Tiana read the latest Magic Mirror blog out loud. She bounced off the bed and ran to her closet, flinging the doors wide open to look at her mostly self-made wardrobe. "I feel like last year I was completely underdressed. How is one supposed to dress for these things."

"My friend Lottie helped me last year. I could probably ask her to come and help us. I mean, she loves a good make over." While it was her suggestion, Tiana didn't look overly thrilled at the idea of going. Probably worrying that she would have to call off work and knowing she needed all the hours she could get to pay for Princeton in a few years.

"Lottie's the one who goes to a private school even more exclusive than WDA, right?" Rapunzel remembered vaguely meeting the very enthusiastic blonde last year.

"Hard to imagine, I know." Tiana had wished she could go to school with Lottie, if only for the advantage it would give her toward Princeton, but WDA was still well on her way. She supposed one afternoon off wasn't going to kill her chances at affording college. "I'll call her. She'll just love a party."

Just then, Lilo came barreling down the shared sophomore-freshman hall. She hoped that by running as fast as she could she would minimize the amount of water and sand she left in her wake. She skidded into her room, nearly knocking Kida over. Kida smiled understandingly. "Feeding Pudge again?"

Lilo pushed her sopping black hair out of her face with a slight embarrassed smile. Of course Kida knew she had been feeding the fish Pudge at the ocean not so very far away since she was a little girl. And she knew why. "Oh, you know. Pudge wouldn't live without his peanut butter sandwich."

Kida nodded and tossed Lilo a towel. "Well, I'm sure he appreciates it so much, but stop dripping on our floor." She fingered her crystal pendant as she looked in her closet. "You'd better shower and get changed, back to school party tonight. I hear the Meg and Esmeralda are hosting this year. We're guaranteed an invite, seeing as we're on the dance team with them."

Lilo dropped the towel to clean up the water on the floor. "Oh, is that what Magic Mirror was going on about? I heard the notification for a new blog on my way home, but I didn't want to get sand an water on my phone."

"Party? I know I heard the word party." Naveen stuck his head in the girls room, uninvited but no one really cared. "I'm dying to get that text. You'll text me right? I mean, of course I should make the first round of invites, being that I'm practically royalty around here, but just in case-"

"Sure, Naveen, now get!" Lilo said, pushing him out as she closed her door.

Naveen grinned and turned in time to catch his roommate, Kuzco, dancing down the hall to some unknown beat constantly going in his head. "Kuzco! Buddy! We are attending a party tonight!"

Kuzco stopped mid-dance and looked Naveen straight in the eye. "No one will mess up my groove tonight!"

Milo peeked his head out of his dorm room, light brown hair rumpled from his hand running through it. "Uh, guys, can you quiet it down? I'm trying to study."

"What can you possibly be studying already?" Naveen marveled.

"Oh, no. Studying definitely throws off my groove." Kuzco shook his head, preventing Milo from answering. "Naveen, I think we need to help this poor book worm. There's a party tonight, Milo. And you're going."

Milo sputtered excuses and Kuzco and Naveen stalked toward him, having every intention of dressing him in their flamboyant style. Luckily for him, Flynn pulled him into the room, effectively putting himself between Milo and the guys. "Sure, Milo will go to the party. I'll make sure of it. Now, leave the poor kid alone."

"Thanks, Flynn." Milo said , pushing his glasses up on the bridge of his nose.

"I just don't want all that loudness in my space." Flynn shrugged. "But seriously, kid, study less party more. This is high school after all."

Down the hall, the door opened and the excited freshmen rushed in. Sisters Anna and Elsa walked down the hall to their room arm-in-arm. Elsa looked considerably less excited than everyone else. Anna poked her side. "Come on, Elsa. Cheer up! We'll go to the beach later and build a sand castle, okay? This school isn't going to be as bad as the last one."

Elsa held her composure well, but inside she was cringing. She lifted on hand to brush white bangs out of her face. Her hair, so blonde it was white, tended to get her a lot of unwanted attention. She stood out and was often left out. "Anna, it's just high school."

"Speaking, of high school," Merida cut in, putting herself in between the sisters as loud as her crazy red hair, "there is a party tonight, I hear. I subscribed to the blog run by some mysterious person in the school. Aaaanyway, there's news of a party. If we want to make ourselves known in this place, we have to go."

"I don't think freshmen are usually invited to this sort of thing." Elsa said doubtfully.

"Oh, Elsa! A party, our first high school party!" Anna's excitement drowned out Elsa's protest. "We have to go! How do we know where and when though?"

"I may be able to help you there." Hans ran a hand through his perfectly kept brown hair. "I'm well connected. If you'd like, I could probably get you all in."

The girls looked up at Hans, a little surprised he'd been paying attention to their conversation. Anna turned a light shade of pink when she realized he was looking straight at her. Not Elsa or Merida, or even a kind of passing glance over all of them, straight at her. "That would be great."

He smiled an award winning (if there were awards for smiles in high school) smile. "Great, just give me your number and I'll text you later."

As Anna handed over her phone for him to put his number in, Elsa hissed in her ear. "You shouldn't give your phone to someone you just met."

"Shh." Anna hissed back. She wasn't about to let her sister ruin the first guy who gave her a second look for her. As Hans handed her phone back, their fingers touched and she almost fainted. "I'll wait for your text."

"Talk to you later then." He grinned again before heading down to his room. Kristoff, his roommate was already there. Hans raised an eyebrow at him. "Hey, why weren't you at orientation?"

Kristoff was arranging some rocks on his desk. "Oh, orientation. Right. I forgot about that. I mean, what the point anyway? It's just more school. We've already been through eight years of it, I'm sure ninth grade isn't going to be all that different."

Hans glanced back into the hallway where the girls were still discussing the party. You're wrong, he thought. This is the year of Hans.

A/N: Well, now you're acquainted with all the characters I intend to use. Sophomores and Freshmen were introduced in this chapter because they're both very small classes of main characters. Sophomores range from Atlantis (2001) to Tangled (2010) and Freshmen are Brave and Frozen.

Finally, with all the introductions done, we can get to some of the actual story-starting with a party!

Hey, are there characters in any grade range that you would have liked to see, but don't?

Does it bother you guys that I majorly fudged some ages? (Like Lilo or Milo?)

Can't wait to hear from you!
