So, I want to focus mainly on the De Ville siblings, since they got most of the abuse with their parent. And I'm just going to start doing it in 3rd Person, and instead of being fully evil, I'm having them act like normal teens. But like Evie sang, they've got some mischief in their blood. Dun Dun Duuuuuun! :)
In the girls' room, their brothers had left them to pack, and said they'd be back in about ten minutes. As Carla unpacked, she wondered why it was them who got picked, instead of the more evil kids. Not that she's ungrateful, but there were some worse cases out there. Jayla, however, was not unpacking, questioning why the initiation was so easy. Nothing was easy on the Isle, and the only thing she learned there, was nothing was easy. Not even Auradon.
When Carla was finished, she stood up and motioned to the door, putting a finger on her lips. they both put their ears against the door listening to people talking in the hallway.
"I'm suspicious about their behavior. They were obviously never this mellow on the Isle. Not putting anything against them, but their up to something." They didn't know the voice, but recognized the other person.
"Audrey, they're younger than you, they don't act exactly like the rest of them did. Give them a chance. I thought you were trying to get on good terms with them. What happened?" Ben replied, "But I think it's been ten minutes."
The girls scurried away from the door, thinking cruel thoughts against the girl named Audrey.
"Ready for the tour?" Ben asked.
"Sure." Jayla replied, trying to act more like she did on the Isle. "Where's Mal, Jay, Carlos, and Evie?" She asked suspicious of Audrey.
"Getting the boys. They've put up a fight getting out of their rooms." Carla looked down the hall at the small crowd of annoyed teenagers, and grinned at Jayla. They started running towards the boys room laughing maliciously. Ben and Audrey tried chasing them, but easily lost them in the crowd. In the center, were the two boys, kicking and screaming. Jayla quickly whispered to them, and all four ran through legs and into the main hallway. This attracted the attention of the whole school.
Grinning, they ran outside and around the building. Seeing a forest, Carla pointed towards it and started running towards it, the other three in tow. When they were halfway across the field of grass between the school and the forest, the crowd of VK's and a few royals came running around the corner. Somewhere in the mix, Carlos lost Dude, who was enjoying the chase, but quickly catching up to the younger kids.
Carla looked back at the barking and scream at her worst fear. Quickly pushing ahead of the others, she ran in fear into the woods. The others were calling her name frantically, knowing she could run pretty fast when frightened. Carlos started running even faster, and soon overtook the crowd and chased after his younger sister.
Carla was crying while she ran, especially since the monster from all her nightmares was snapping at her heels. The only thing missing was her mother. Seeing a low tree, she climbed it in a frantic daze. She climbed so high that her friends didn't see her and rushed past, not hearing her calls for help or seeing the dog. She hugged the highest branch she could reach bawling her little heart out. Carlos, seeing Dude barking at the tree, called to her.
"Carla, it's alright, come down." When he saw his sister at the top of a tree, and not even close to wanting to come down, he started climbing up. Dude, seeing Carlos had found her, ran back to the school. When Carlos was on the first branch, he heard a cracking noise above him. Looking up, he saw his sister dangling from the highest branch, which was quickly breaking.. Quickening his pace, he got a third of the way, before the branch snapped. He grabbed her arm mid-fall, but it yanked him off of his branch. He wrapped his legs around the nearest branch. He looked down at her, but what was behind her surprised him. Somehow, they had climbed around the tree, which was hovering over a narrow ravine, five feet deep.
Focusing back on her, he called for Jay and Ben, who appeared near where a squirming Carla was swaying. Jay tried reaching for her, but fell in the ravine, recovering with a somersault. Ben tried also, and fell, but Jay stopped him from rolling too bad. They both positioned themselves under Carla and Carlos.
"Carlos, let her fall. We'll catch her." Carla looked up at Carlos in fear.
"Don't drop me please. I don't trust them." By now, everyone, including her friends, were jumping in the ravine. Carlos looked at his sister and responded by saying;
"I trust them, and they will catch you. I promise." With that, he let go. For her, it almost seemed slow-motion, with her high pitched scream echoing in everyone's ears. When they caught her, Ben carried Carla back to the school, who was in a dead faint, as she experienced both of her worst fears, heights and dogs. After everyone caught Carlos, they headed back to the school, with the three teens surrounded, in a dead silence. This had been a disaster.
"Well, I guess the tour can wait until tomorrow. When things have settled down a bit." Fairy Godmother said meeting them all in the entree, before following Ben, who still had an unconscious Carla in his arms, to the dorms. When in the girls' room, she woke up slightly when he put her on the bed. The other VK's came in and pulled their siblings too, except Carlos, who was massaging his aching arms.
"Give us a sec please." Mal said to Ben and the remaining royals, (the others had gone their ways when at the entree). Ben closed the door quietly. Carla tried to stand up, but was so dizzy, she had to compromise with laying on Mattie's shoulder, who was sitting on her bed. The older kids glared at the guilt struck juveniles.
"What were you thinking? Coming over here, you need to change the way you act. And Edward, the next time you punch Chad, he'll get you back. I promise." Evie said, glaring at Edward.
"Well we wouldn't have ran, if the stupid royals hadn't tried to maul us. You saw them back there. I have at least three bruises from one girl pinching my cheek so much. And if it weren't for that stupid dog, we would've come easier. Not to mention it almost killed me!" Carla cried in defiance.
"Well that 'stupid mutt' is mine. And if you've got anything to say about it, you can say to it." Carlos yelled. Immediately, Carla's eyes welled with tears, and jumping off the bed, she yelled, "Well it's not my fault everything I've ever feared was chasing me. It's not my fault that you never stopped mother when she beat me. And it's not my fault that I never missed you. It's yours." And with that, she climbed out the window and ran off. Mattie, Edward and Jayla glared at the four VK's before following in suit.
Carlos took a step back, tears of regret and anger in his eyes. "I'm going to my room. Go find them, I'll be a minute." He stormed out of the door. He was angry with himself. Why had I brought Dude with me? Why had I never stopped mother? Why had I been so mean to her? There was only one answer. Because it was the Isle, where nobody was loved. But now he had to make it up with her. Her way.
Carla stopped running when her head hurt too badly. It was pounding. She looked around, and found herself in a small clearing in an apple orchard. Curious, she stepped up to one of the trees and picked an apple off the tree. It wasn't the usual brown wrinkles that was on the Isle. It was blood red, and big enough to fill her whole hand. She bit into it, just when an old, familiar voice shouted, "YES!" Swaying as her headache increased, she knelt down and looked at the apple. There was a black core in it, slowly spreading. She had spots dancing in her eyes, when she suddenly couldn't breath. Her vision went black, but not before she saw black and white pants walking calmly towards her.
Cruella De Ville knelt by her unconscious body. "One down, one to go." With that, she headed into the trees of the nearby forest.
