Mal opened her eyes when she woke up. She looked around with wide eyes.
"Where am I?" Mal asked. "Back at the Isle?"
Far from it! She and her friends had landed smack-dab in some kind of Fairytale World. There were no Auradon Fighting Knights, no Isle of the Lost, no Auradon Prep – they were only crash landed in a different forest, known as the Enchanted Forest, in a different world.
Mal noticed Carlos running around, screaming. "Carlos!" Mal called. "Calm down, buddy. What happened?"
"Oh, a storm took us to some kind of different place," Carlos answered, then continued screaming and running around.
"Mal! We're okay," Evie said as she and Jay went to Mal. "Or at least we're still the same."
"Yeah, but okay where?" Mal said. "We could've been back to Auradon already."
"You're right," Jay replied. "And I don't see any signs telling us where we are."
Then, Evie had an idea, "I know. Let's ask somebody who lives here. If they don't know where they live, who does?"
"Good idea, Evie," Mal said. "We'll all try and find someone. Let's go."
"Hey, wait for me, guys!" Carlos yelled, following Mal and Evie, along with Jay.
Mal, Evie, Carlos, and Jay walked through the Enchanted Forest. But suddenly, Carlos felt into some kind of hole and was separated from his friends.
The next thing Carlos knew, he was being chased by a giant troll. Carlos managed to lose the troll, and was reunited with Mal and the others.
"Carlos," Mal said. "You're okay!"
"There you are!" Evie was surprised.
'Great to see you, buddy!" Jay said.
"How did you guys get here?" Carlos asked, catching his breath.
"Would you believe there ended up being another path?" Evie said.
"Oh, another path?" Carlos replied. "So I risked my entire life, running and hiding from that giant troll and now you're saying you found ANOTHER PATH?!"
"The important thing is we stick together," Jay said to Carlos, "and that you stopped screaming." Jay giggled.
"Yeah, well, could you guys at least find out where we are?" Carlos asked.
"No," Mal said, "but I got a feeling we get our answer over there."
Mal was pointing at a silhouette of a school building far away.
Mal, Evie, Carlos, and Jay scrambled up the hill. When they looked over to the other side, their jaws were dropped.
All they see was a town, full of people, called Village of Book End and a tall school building filled with students – just like Auradon!
"Wow!" Evie exclaimed.
"'Ever After High'?" Mal said, reading the sign.
"It's a different school, in a different world," Carlos said. "Let's check it out."
They approached the school and the students. It was time for the villain kids to meet their counterparts!
