Hi, hope you liked the plot twist. So, I'm going to focus on the De Ville siblings, but later on in the story, I might focus on the others... By the way, on the Isle, the only nice thing Carlos had ever done to Carla, was help her runaway from their mother... here you go...
When they finally found Carla, her lips had a blue twinge because of the cold. Jay had found her, and calling to the others, carried her inside. They brought her to the Fairy Godmother, who sent them to the Infirmary. Jay gave her to the frantic nurses, while the secretary ushered them out into the waiting room. They were in the waiting room for about thirty seconds, before Carlos burst in the room. His eyes were red, and he was breathing heavily.
"Is there any family of Carla De Ville here?" A nurse said walking in the sullen room.
"Here." Carlos followed her into the hospital room containing Carla. Just the sight of her made him full of regret.
"What was the cause?" He asked sadly.
"Poison apple. We don't know where it came from, but some footprints were sighted near where they found her. We are suspecting one of the villains escaped the Isle, but why didn't they get the rest of you? The King said he left you all in her room. Why didn't they just get you then?" The nurse wore a worried expression.
"Mother." Carlos whispered so the nurse couldn't hear. To her he said, "I don't know. Just find a way to heal her. Please." He said desperately, before walking back into the waiting room. He didn't meet the expectant eyes, and said, "Mother." and walked out. His mother couldn't escape from the Isle, could she? All he knew was she would get him alone, and then hurt him.
He walked to the forest, readying himself for a confront with his mother, whom he had never wanted to see again. The years of abuse a reminder of her capability.
(*Flashback*)
The first and last time her stopped his mother from hurting Carla, was something that haunted his memories for years to come. When he had come back from having fun in the streets, it was nearly midnight. When he stepped towards the front door, he could hear his mother cursing like Captain Hook's sailors at the top of her lungs.
"Where the **** is he? My roots need fixed, not to mention my fur needs fluffed!" Sighing he walked through the black door, anticipating the shriek from his mothers chair. She stood up, knocking over little Carla, who was only six.
"Where in **** where you? Your chores needed done hours ago. Does making your sister do your chores make you happy?" Her face was red, and her breath was heavy with alcohol. He winced, forgetting the consequence of unfinished chores.
"No." He whispered. She smacked him across the face.
"Then why did you leave?"
"Because I'm rotten to the core. You taught me to be evil, and whats more cruel than skipping out on your chores." He didn't expect the hesitant look on her face. Then her evil grin reappeared on her face.
"Well, I did my job well. I'll let you go without chores and punishment for a week, if you watch this." He frowned. This was strange, considering she never dropped the chores. But when she reached over to Carla, he understood. She was going to make him watch Carla get all the abuse. His head was a battle. Stop his mother, or get no punishment or chores for a week. Bravery or selfishness. Hurt himself or Carla. The battle raged on, and before he knew it, his mother was smiling crazed in front of him.
"Very evil. I'll make sure you pass Evil 101. Now go to bed, I want you to deliver a message to Maleficent in the morning. And scrape your sister off the floor." With that she left, and the instant she was out of sight, he rushed to the quivering girl.
"Carla, come on, it's over. Lets get you to Evie. She can fix you up." He picked her up and headed upstairs, to the rooftops, where he usually met his gang when they couldn't stand home. Evie, Mal, and Jay were there, and when they saw the siblings, they rushed over. Carla was still crying, and Carlos was red in the face from his anger at himself for not stopping the fight. Evie took out one of her potions she kept for emergencies, and dabbed a bit on the biggest wound, on the little girl's cheek. The gash was huge, but on contact with the potion, it shrank to nothing.
"This can't keep going on. I can't let this happen again. We need to help them leave." Carlos said sadly, looking at his sister, who was still shaking in fear.
"Where can they go that our parents won't find all four of them?" Evie asked, still dabbing the potion on Carla.
"I don't know. That's the problem." A silence concluded Carlos' words.
Suddenly, Mal spoke up. "Earlier today, I found a cave when I was running away from Mom's henchmen. I only found it, because I was looking for a place to hide. We could use that." Mal stepped away from where she was leaning on the wall.
"We have to do this now. Mal, Jay, go get Mattie and Jayla, and while Evie is helping Carla, I'll get Edward. Meet here in 15 minutes, and bring all their stuff." With that, they split up, leaving Evie to finish with Carla and help her get her belongings.
(*End of Flashback*)
Carlos stepped in a clearing, keeping close watch on all sides.
"Mother. I know you're there. Come out, or I'll come find you." Dude was wagging his tail, but instantly stopped when he saw Cruella De Ville step out from the trees.
"Oh good, now I don't have to get you away from your friends. Ugh." She shuddered at the word friends she had spat out.
"How did you get out?" Carlos asked, getting right to the point. "And why did you poison Carla for? She never wronged you. She never even betrayed you, so why?"
"'I stole your spare spell book Maleficent. I kept half the things I ever stole for you. I'm not even sorry that you hate me. In fact, the feelings mutual. I will not participate in retrieving the wand. I'm leaving you behind, and there's nothing you can do to stop me.'" She mocked. "We already know that they won't get the wand. Duh, they're your siblings, but Carla's part about there's nothing I can do about it, is wrong. Just look at my first success, let's just hope she dies. And now, I've got you. After you, I'll get the others. Call me 101% bad, but I'm just following orders."
"Whose orders. You can tell me, since I'm obviously going to die." Carlos said, noticing that she hadn't seen Dude yet.
"The new heads of the Isle. Gaston, Mother Gothel, Hades, and Queen of Hearts." She said. She was furious when she had been renounced, but now it was just bubbling anger. Carlos laughed when he saw her face grow red, his fear of her replaced with irritation for her vanity.
"You really think you're the scariest villain? I mean, sure, you're the craziest, but is that necessarily scary. Me and Carla were only scared of you because we lived with you. Why do you think I helped her escape? Because you nearly killed us in your crazed, drunk, blind anger. Multiple times in fact. No wonder we never missed you." Carlos dodged the fist sent in his direction. "Oh look, you're doing it again. Trying to kill me because I spoke my mind for the first time in forever. How proud you must be that you haven't killed me. I'm just that good." Another fist aimed for his head was dodged. "Face it Cruella De Ville. I'm a hero. And you were never my mother. Only the monster outside of my closet."
"And you were never my son. Only the slave I stored in the cupboard." Cruella growled. "Let's hope the dogs eat your useless body when I'm done with you. I know how you fear them boy. Don't forget, I killed them, and their spirits might just go and haunt you if you live." Carlos grinned.
"Dude, get her." And with that, the dog launched itself at the black and white clad woman. She shrieked and swore, but nothing she could do would get the revenge thirsty dog off of her. He knew who she was and what she'd done. Carlos laughed at her fear. "That's for me and Carla. And because I'm nice now, I'll get him off." He whistled towards the dog and instantly the dog got off and walked proudly back to the waiting boy. By then, Cruella was passed out in fear, sprawled on the ground. Well now I know where Carla gets the fainting in fear, he thought. He walked over to the limp body and started dragging her towards the castle. Dude ran ahead and barked at some wondering students, bringing their attention to the struggling Carlos. Doug, Chad and Audrey ran towards him, fearing he might be hurt, but were surprised to see the unconscious villain he was dragging.
"Is that-" Audrey started but Chad beat her to it.
"Isn't that your mom?"
