Auardon Prep's Headmistress' Office - Thursday Afternoon
Thirty minutes after the school bell rang, a dark purple figure walked down the empty halls and towards the Headmistress office.
"Come in." Fairy Godmother's voice submerged from within the room when someone knocked on the door a few times.
"Fairy Godmother." Ylma greeted when she popped her head into the office.
"Ylma, what a pleasant surprise. Come on in, dear." Fairy Godmother smiled and waved her hand to signal Ylma to enter the room. "How may I be of any help?"
"I am here to hand in the homework for Remedial Goodness class. I have just collected the homework from the others as requested."
Ylma slowly deeper into the room and placed a stack of booklets onto the table in between them.
"Oh, right. Thanks, dear." Fairy Godmother flipped the pages of the top booklet to reveal Heres name. She moved the stack of books closer to her before continuing what she was doing before Ylma entered the room.
After a few minutes, Fairy Godmother noticed that Ylma was still standing in front of her.
"Is something wrong, dear one?"
Ylma bit her lower lips and nodded her head hesitantly.
Fairy Godmother frowned when she saw Ylma's facial expression and reaction, worried that the poor girl in front of her was bullied or something bad had happened to her.
"Dear Ylma, you can tell me anything. It's ok."
Ylma looked at Fairy Godmother innocently before reaching into her pocket…
Once again, the sounds of heavy footsteps filled the hallways of the boys' dormitory. A dark purple blur dashed down the hallways and stopped in front of a particular door and followed by the sound of fist banging on the door …
"Woah!"
Within a split second, the purple figure disappeared followed by a loud bang.
Heres quickly turned around after she closed the door behind her. She then closed her eyes and started to mumble some words under her breath. Within a few seconds, a green and purple shield once again started to form around them.
"Did you get the location?" Heres asked as she walked over to Ylma.
The LeGume Twins instantly followed Heres and moved over to Ylma. The four of them were now sitting around the round table in the LeGume Twins' room.
Ylma flashed her best sly smile she could give and nodded.
"Well?" Heres asked after waiting for a few minutes. "Where is it?"
"Oh, right! Sorry." Ylma gasped as she bended down to find the map of Auradon among a stack of paper which was originally on the table. She examined the map for a few seconds before pointing at one of the towers at the far corner of the Auradon Prep. "Here is where Fairy God mother kept the scepter along with many forbidden magical objects."
Gaston Jr bended down to examine the surroundings of said tower, "Cool! When do we make our move?"
"We will make our move on Saturday morning since school will early on Friday for the celebration of Cinderella's birthday at Charming Castle and everyone in school was invited for an overnight party. What do you guys think?"
The LeGume twins shared a look and gave her a nod.
"Sounds like a wicked plan."
Chipotle Mexican Grill – Thursday Afternoon
Chad and Lonnie along with Jay and Audrey were already sitting at their usual spot when Doug and Evie entered the restaurant. The waitress recognised them immediately and without any further clarification, she directed them to their table which was located at a far corner of the restaurant where they can have their privacy and at the same time, they get a good view of the whole restaurant.
"Where is Ben and Mal? I thought you two was supposed to meet up with them?" Jay asked as he tilted his head to look behind their shoulders to find that no one was there.
"Well, we were." Doug pulled out Evie's chair and in return Evie gave him a sweet smile before sitting down and reverting her attention back to her surrogate brother.
"Ben had some last minute king duties to attend to immediately, as usual." Evie rolled her eyes at the back of her head. "Anyway, Mal doesn't want to leave him behind so she has decided to accompany Ben but she promise to call and meet up with us later if Ben managed to finish early which I doubt will happen. It's really getting harder to separate the two of them once they meet up. Ever since the Carnival…"
Jay chuckled and shook his head as he watched his surrogate sister complain about the young King of Auradon stealing her BFF.
"Evie." Doug tapped his girlfriend's knee gently as he knew his girlfriend can go on all day about the topic but there is something more important right now to tell their friends.
Evie turned to his boyfriend with fury eyes as though she was about to burst for interrupting her speech about not having her BFF to herself at all.
Doug quickly gave her look before she says anything, causing Evie to give him a puzzled look before her face lit up upon realizing what he was trying to say.
Evie turned to the other and said, "Oh, right. Doug and I were having our study date yesterday when Heres barge right in and started asking for Ben. We find this very unusual, I mean it's not like Heres to look for someone like that."
"Come to think about it, I did saw Heres running into Ben's room not long after school ended yesterday." Chad added.
"You guys don't think…"
"Hey guys, sorry we're late."
Carlos interrupted before Lonnie could finish with Jane behind him.
"What are you guys talking about?" Jane asked as Carlos pulled out her chair.
"Chad just told us that he saw Heres running into Ben's room earlier." Jay said.
"Yeah, I saw Heres in Ben's room a few times this week too when I was bringing some documents that required his attention from my mom." Jane nodded in agreement.
"Looks like Gaston Jr is not the only problem we have here. I just hope that Gaston the Third and Ylma will not be an issue too." Evie signed.
Everyone around the table shared worried looks as they started to eat their dinner quietly.
Heres and Ylma's Dormitory – Early Friday Afternoon
"Hi, Ylma." Evie greeted when the door opened.
It's time for her weekly meeting with Ylma but she also had to attend Cinderella's birthday party with her friend later that evening so right after school ended, she quickly returned to her lockers to keep her books before making her way back to the dormitories.
"Hi, come in." Ylma greeted her with a small smile before taking a step back to let her enter the room.
Ylma only had one class this morning so therefore she had returned to her room to do her homework while waiting for the blue-haired girl to arrive.
"Alright, do you need any help on your homework or anything?"
Evie slowly deeper into the room and towards the table where a few open books were seen as she removed her dark blue leather jacket, revealing the light blue cocktail sparkly dress underneath. She draped the leather jacket over the back of her chair before taking a seat in it.
"I do have some question about my biology homework that I was hoping you could help me with." Ylma nodded before reaching out to grab her homework.
"Sure, let me take a look at it. I'll help if I can."
For the next hour, Evie helped Ylma with her homework for some of the classes that they do not take on the Island as they don't have the resources Auradon Prep has.
"Alright, anything else you needed my help on?" Evie asked politely, for the fourth time.
Finally, Ylma replied her with a simple nod of her head.
"That's all for this week. Thanks, Evie."
"You're welcome." Evie smiled.
"So how is it in Auardon Prep? Anyone giving you a hard time?"
Ylma started to pack her books when she heard Evie. She paused and turned to the blue haired girl.
"Well sort off. I mean they are really nice and all but at time I feel like they're…"
"Afraid?" Ylma gave her a small nod. "I know what you mean, even I feel the same way when I hand out with some of my classmates. Even Mal, Jays and Carlos felt that about some of the students too. Just give it some time, I'm sure that that will come around eventually. Don't let them interfere on your path to who you are meant to be." Evie gave the brown-haired girl a pat on her shoulders, hoping to help her feel better.
"Afraid of you? I mean being afraid of Mal and Jay, I understand. But you and Carlos is like one of the nicest kids on the Island, well at least the nicest you can be when you're on the Isle of the Lost. I mean even Mal's eyes still turned devilish green at times…"
"Turned green? Who told you that?" Evie frowned as she interrupted.
"Oh, the twins of course. After the accident with Gaston Jr during Carlos party, I believe the twins are the only ones that make Mal go 'pop', well specifically Gaston Jr." Ylma chuckled softly as the memory of when she saw the twins said something beyond stupid and cause Mal to burst at them came into mind again.
"What happened during the party? Mal only told me that she had a disastrous time when she was talking to Gaston Jr during Carlos party but she would never go into details no matter how many times I try to force the truth out of her."
Ylma bit her lower lip and nodded slightly. "Well sort of, I only saw the after events of what happened."
"What did you see at the party?"
"Um." Ylma gulped.
"It's ok, you can tell me. I will not say a word to anyone." Evie comforted as she extended a hand out to pat the brown-haired girl's hand.
"Alright, I saw Mal walking out of the closet that she pushed you into with Gaston Jr behind her and Gaston Jr tried to kiss her after that but Mal punched him in the stomach before he could touch her." Ylma took a deep breath and continued," and after Mal stomped off, I saw Gaston Jr smirking to himself with his eyes sparked with excitement just like when he saw a full table of his favourite food."
Ylma let out a heavy sigh when she finished. She really hoped that she did not spill any beans of her crush on the older LeGume twin. She felt like pinching herself for falling for someone she knew she would not have any future with but she just can't help it. She really hoped she could reverse time so she could prevent herself from ever meeting the LeGume twins on her first field trip to one of the abandoned fortresses on the Isle of the Lost for their Surviving Skills class.
While Ylma was lost in her thoughts, Evie was also lost in her own thoughts. Fortunately for Ylma, the blue-haired girl was wondering why Mal was in the closet as she distinctly remembered that the door was closed behind her when she was pushed into the closet. When she was finding her way out, she also didn't remember hearing any sound behind her.
Was Mal trying to let her out? Or she was trying to make her run towards the door so she could slam the door at her face? Or … Or … Or ….
Evie was so overwhelmed by her thoughts that she started to have a headache, she knew she needed to talk to Mal about this as soon as possible but she first need to talk to Mal about her eyes turning devilish green.
Without a second thought, the blue-haired girl pushed her chair back and stood up before reaching out to grab her jacked. She then started to run for the door.
"I see you tomorrow, Ylma."
Those were her last words before she disappeared out of the door. Ylma stared at her closed door, stunned by the sudden disappearance of the blue-haired girl.
"MAL!"
Mal was laying on her stomach on her bed in her purple lace insert peplum top and black ripped skinny jeans as she hummed a random tone with her hand drawing a picture of the Summer Castle when a blue figure barging into the room.
"What's wrong?" Mal chuckled softly as she sat up to look at her panting best friend.
"Ylma told me that your eyes turned devilish green multiple times." Evie's words instantly wiped the smile on the purple-haired girl away. "Why didn't you tell me any of this? Mal? We are a family. You should at least tell us."
Mal let out a heavy sigh as she rubbed her forehead, feeling frustrated and embarrassed. She is feeling frustrated as this was the kind of conversion she knew she would be having if she told them and feeling embarrassed as this was not the way she wanted her best friend to find out.
"Mal?" Evie whispered softly after not getting any response from her best friend after waiting for two minutes.
"Evie." Mal took a deep breath. "I am so sorry that I did not tell you guys earlier, I was really scared when my eyes turned without my control, it was totally unintentional and it worried me as you know my mother turned when she was 18."
Mal looked down at her hands as Evie reached out to hold her hand to give her some support. Mal looked up and Evie immediately flashed her best encouraging smile she could give.
"Thanks Evie. I am really worried that if I really turned... what will happen? I'm really afraid that if I really lose control and turned, I would hurt you guys. That is the last thing I ever wanted is to hurt you, Ben, Jay and Carlos. Mainly because I know that even if I turned, you guys will never rest until you guys managed to turn me back and that's what worries me most."
"Oh, Mal!" Evie instantly wrapped her arms around her best friend's shoulder. "You never have to worry that you might hurt us. We will always be here for you no matter what happen."
"Thanks, E."
The smile returned back on Mal's lips as she let her best friend go.
"But don't worry, E. I went to Fairy Godmother when my eyes turned green for the second time, she promised me she will help me look through her spell books to help me look for a solution to prevent me turning or at least to help understand my abilities better. Can you keep this a secret from Ben, Jay and Carlos first? I don't want to worry them."
Evie nodded. "But I will be coming with you to meet Fairy Godmother when she's done." Mal was about to say something so she quickly put out a finger to her with the other hand on her hips, looking like a tea pot. "If you try to stop me, I'll just walked out this dorm room and marched towards the boys' dorm rooms to tell Ben, Jay and Carlos this instant and let them decide on what to do with you."
Mal eyed her best friend before nodding her head, admitting defeat as she knows Evie will never take no for an answer so might as well just go with it.
Evie smiled and nodded in satisfaction.
