Sixteen years later
Princess Evie was quite ordinary and really the most fairest princess in Auradon something was bothering her though. All of her life her mother had been speaking ill about the former queen. Her mother´s former stepmother. The young princess had heard the story so many times she would mimic her mothers gestures while she told the tale, over and over again. Of course now when her class had gathered in the museum in the gallery of the villains most of the children scrunched their noses and shook their heads. Evie on the other hand was interested, what would get someone to do something as wicked as skin puppies, take a mermaids voice, steal a child, curse a child and poison someone with an apple. Something about the villains was just so interesting and the princess couldn´t help but feel sympathy for them that was stuck on that horrible isle. Now standing in front of a young portrait of her mothers stepmother she tilted her head. The former queen looked so familiar. Maybe it was the eyes but she couldn´t put her finger on it.
Ben raised an eyebrow from where he was standing and excused himself from the group slowly making his way over to Evie and slowly laying a hand on her shoulder. "Eve… What´s going on?"
Evie snapped out of her thoughts and looked up at him with a small shrug. "I just… Why did we send them there?" She sighed heavily and laid a hand on the small glass that separated her and the famous box that would have contained Snow White´s heart. "I know I shouldn´t even ask but it just seems unfair, the least we could do is give them proper food… Ben they are humans"
"Hey, don´t worry I won´t tell anyone." He promised and looked up at the painting. "You know once I really think she was the fairest of them all, Audrey´s grandfather told us once the queen was quite nice… someone changed her and she never was the same" Ben rubbed Evie´s back and sighed. "Eve, come on… let´s continue the tour and we´ll see what we can do about this"
She sighed heavily and nodded slowly, walking with him to the others. Evie wanted answers from the hero´s. If they where so good why would they send them there and let them have children without the proper care. No one should get that destiny even if they did something evil. Bringing people back from the dead so they could get punished even more seemed like a fate worse then death. Maybe that was why they brought them back. To have the villains suffer more and watch their enemies living an happy life. The daughter of Snow White sighed and continued to listen to the stories Fairy Godmother was telling them. Somehow she felt like she didn´t fit in with the other princesses and princes. Of course Doug was her friend but he kinda had to. Neither less the princess put on a smile and followed them all around the whole day, pretending to be as happy as the picture of her and her mother that hanged in the royal exhibit.
Isle of the lost
On the isle the evil queen had been alone for more then sixteen years. On the other hand she had been waking back to town these last few weeks to show that she was very much alive and she had even met up with old friends. Right now the villains had a party going on. Though Grimhilde wasn't in her party mood, instead she was sitting and drinking a glass of sour apple wine. What she didn't expect was that Jafar would take the seat beside her and lay a hand on her shoulder. She hadn't seen him in ten years. The Queen went into a deep depression and kept away from everyone on the isle. Still it felt comforting to know the old grand vizier still was there for her.
"You look like you did the day you left..." He whispered while she simply laid her head on his shoulder. Taking comfort in the warm embrace. "I mean it Grimmy..."
The Queen smiled softly and looked up at him. "You always knew how to charm a girl... Even though you are a snake" she rolled her eyes and laid her hand on his. Taking another sip from her wine glass. "I've missed you too... How is Jay?"
"He is great... Running around like always" he stroked her hair and tilted her head up. "My question is how are you?"
"You know exactly how it is with me" she sighed sadly and met his eyes. She could do this. She needed to feel safe again even if it was only for one night, Grimhilde leaned up and pressed a deep kiss to his lips, letting go of her glass and wrapping her arms around his neck.
Jafar immediately responded to the kiss and grinned madly. Oh he had dreamed about this for years. He scooped the evil queen up and carried her though the crowd, not caring about the eyes that watched the two. He carried her the whole way home to her castle were they spent a wonderful night in etch others arms. Suddenly they didn't feel so alone anymore.
