Here you have a new chapter!, I hope you enjoy it!

If there was something that Mal hated was going back to the Isle, with her mother back as a lizard and all her (close) friends in Auradon she had little reason to go back to the miserable place.

The others hated it too in varying degrees, though the three of them were happy about going to visit their pets and in Evie's and Jay's cases their parents, Carlos' wanted to avoid going to Hell Hall if he could even if he totally missed his cat who anyway ran around the Isle and surely would come out to greet him.

Even though Evil Queen and Jafar had agreed with Maleficent about getting the wand, the queen was glad that Evie was happy in Auradon and that her designs were getting popular, she still thought that she needed a prince instead of the son of a dwarf but…she wouldn't pressure her; on the other hand, the ex-vizier was just coming around Jay becoming an Auradonian and was not happy that his son was becoming close to Aladdin's kid but wouldn't say anything that would stop his kid from calling as sporadically he did.

People in the Isle of the Lost either loved and admired them or hated and wanted to kill them, the dirty looks they received on their side of the Isle didn't stop Mal from going to the Slop Shop to take a coffee.

"I don't know how you can still drink that" Evie said with a frown, in the short time she had gone to Dragon Hall she could never grow to like the coffee sold by Maleficent's goblins and she just felt like throwing up just at the smell of it.

"It's not that bad" Mal shrugged taking a sip of her coffee, it wasn't the best but it wasn't the worst either.

"Still I'm glad that we are not staying for long" Carlos shuddered looking around, he was slightly relieved that the people were just giving them dirty looks instead of lunging at them.

"Let's go, they are waiting for us" Evie said still looking disgusted at the food of the Isle, her mother at least tried to acquire the fresher food from the shippings that arrived from Auradon so she wasn't used to that rotten food her friends had grown up with.

The villain kids were already waiting for them in the Bargain Castle, Maleficent's house, which was still in despair since no one lived there.

Mal's room was untouched since the day she had left after fighting Uma's crew and rescuing Ben from them; that didn't mean that the rest of the house wasn't used sometimes by some guests.

The original members of the Anti-Hero Club clapped at them when they entered, which made them kind of flustered, and Dizzy ran to hug Evie who said "I knew you would make to Auradon"

"I'm not there yet"

"You'll be…soon" The fashionista reassured her with a smile.

The non-Anti-Hero club kids just stayed there uncomfortably not knowing what to do until Anthony walked up to Mal and extended his hand to shake while saying "Greetings, Lady Mal"

The fae looked at him strangely but shook his hand, maybe he would adjust well to the life that was waiting for him at Auradon and so she said "Good morning…guys"

"Well, you know why you are here so let's get started" Jay said rubbing his hands and added "I hope you didn't pack much since we are going to be kinda cramped"

"We are going to Auradon" Dizzy said excitedly and clapped while jumping a little "I only packed some of my materials"

Her cousin rolled his eyes but Mal could notice that he was repressing a smile which surprised her, she also noticed that Harriet Hook was giving him a curious look while Claudine was fidgeting a little.

The other kids where either in a state of expectation, curious or bored, especially Hades' kids and the Plantagenet boy.

Then Maleficent's daughter decided to drop the bomb on them, it was better to do it while they were at the Isle and not in Auradon where they could really throw a fit since some of them had magic. So she coughed a little to catch their attention and said "Yes you all are coming to Auradon with us…but there is something you have to know before we take the limos…there were some conditions when Ben decided that you could go"

The other villain kids stayed quiet waiting for the "bomb" to explode, Henry was especially interested on knowing the conditions since he had an inkling that the conditions weren't put by the king as he had put none when the first four were invited to Auradon.

"The Council decided that you have to "spend time" with your parents' enemies" Mal explained with a grimace thinking about the fact that she would probably have to spend time with Sleeping Beauty if it crossed the mind of a Council Member thought Aurora and Phillip had voted against Ben's new decree "They think that it would be good for you…"

"Since you would be living in Auradon and you will have to learn some "customs" and manners" Evie completed to Mal's relief, while the blue haired girl knew that most of the kids they were taking would not be problematic (or too problematic) she also knew that their villain parents weren't exactly the kind of parents that would teach them manners, values and things like that.

They fell silent and Jay said to break the silence: "So… let's go for your things if you are convinced that you are coming with us"

"We have them here already" Harriet said raising her bag as if saying "duh". Some if the others did the same while Diego said "It's not like we are backing on our decision; our parents would kill us or someone who wanted to go…just remember Uma…"

"Then let's go" Carlos said putting a hand on his cousin's shoulder, both De Vil smiled a little.

Jay then remembered that most of them didn't have many things and the ones they had could be laced in a backpack, he had packed much either and so he awkwardly guided them to the limos, when they reached the place there were some people waiting for them.

Among them were the Ringmaster, who was carrying a yellow hat and tossed it to Hermie while saying "You forgot it at home", Edgar Balthazar, who just stood there looking around uncomfortably, Anastasia Tremaine, who was holding back tears but smiling a little, Hans Westergaard, looking as if he was going to punch something; and Captain Hook, who was sober-ish and trying to look uninterested but nodded at Harriet as a way of acknowledgment.

While they were getting into the limos, Claudine looked back a few times with a little fear and shuddered a little and Harriet, who had noticed that happening before, and asked "What's up?"

The green-eyed girl sighed and said "My father didn't want me to go to Auradon"

"And?"

"I may have put some herbs on his morning tea" Claudine said with a faint blush and looked down at her shoes. She had paid a pretty penny for those herbs to Ginny Gothel, who had been more than happy to sell them.

Harriet laughed whole heartedly before asking in surprise "You put herbs in your father's tea?"

"It was that or risk to be followed" The blonde girl defended herself but deep down she was amused "But I don't know when it will wear off"

"I'm proud of you"

Claudine gave her a small smile. Harriet and she had been "friends" for a few months mainly because they exchanged food in the lunch and were in the same group in PE class.

"Are you going to get in or not?" Hal asked them while motioning them to enter the limo, he was getting impatient since he had just noticed that his father was among those who were currently watching them depart from the Isle.

"Oh"

Some of their parents shouted some things to them as they parted, some of them were nice and others weren't so nice.

"Bring gold"

"Get a princess"

"Say Hi to Golden-Boy"

"Be better than them"

"Get an Empire"

"Get a ship for us"

"Bring your sister back"

"Be nice to the kittens"

"Don't ever come back"

Mal, Evie, Carlos and Jay decided that each one of them would go in a different limousine to "control" the others; though they mostly took Yen Sid's word and decided that if they were on his recommended list the kids were not going to be much problem, still they had to keep an eye on them.

When they arrived to Auradon there was a large group of people waiting for them but there was not a band since they had suggested not doing something too posh for their arrival as that may be to overwhelmed by all Auradon—ish way of do things.

During the planning of the welcoming "ceremony" Ben had confessed that the band had been Audrey's idea, which wasn't a surprise for any of them.

The king was waiting for the villain kids in front of the school, he had decided to wear a nice button-up shirt with his usual blue pants, currently he was not wearing his crown since he usually didn't when he was at school but he had considered doing it.

Lonnie dissuaded him from doing so.

Next to him stood Chad, who even though was a jerk Ben still kept him around since he was the closest person he had growing up, Audrey, who was back to being a friend though she hadn't exactly wrapped her head around Mal being queen someday, Lonnie, who was his only actual friend, Doug, who was just waiting for Evie, and finally Jane, who was accompaining her mother since she was the headmaster.

"Is there something we have to avoid doing now?" Hal asked to Carlos who was in the same limousine as him with Harriet, Claudine and Anthony.

"Just chill"Carlos answered shrugging "And I suggest that you don't take any candy from here, there are more at the school"

Melinoe asked the same to Mal and she responded "Try to be nice-ish"

The others looked at each other and smirked. Mal grinned.

They all got out from the limousines and just then they started to get nervous, it was clear that while some of the Auradonians were welcoming them the rest were uneasy or downright apprehensive.

Anthony tried to look indifferent but his eyes betrayed him, there was a small glint in them and when he locked his gaze with Chad a tension was created though he noticed that the prince wasn't totally hostile to Dizzy as the little girl went to greet him and handed him a handkerchief, which the prince received with a thanks and put in on his pocket.

Henry looked bored but then saw all the jewelry the Auradonian girls and some boys were using and his eyes widened, surely he would get a lot of gold if he played his cards right and shook Fairy Godmother's hand showing the manners his father had taught him the night before.

Claudine looked around nervously as if she was waiting for someone to jump at her and then her eyes landed on a blonde haired guy with green eyes, he was looking at her too with a curious gaze and both looked away. Frollo's daughter looked at her feet while feeling her cheeks burning while thinking about all the words her father had said about boys during their bible studies.

Hadie felt something stirring inside him but couldn't put his finger on it, and for the look his sister had she was feeling it too, meanwhile Mal just nudged his arm to ask if he was doing alright to which he just nodded. He would have to think about it later since a boy who looked just like his father had described Hercules' was walking towards him but was stopped by a redhaired girl who was carrying a bow.

Hal tried to look regal and wanted to impress, but when he introduced himself as "Prince", Audrey had to make the slight remark that he had no status there which gained her a dirty look from Ben.

That made Audrey and Chad leave since they had "something" to do, though it was obvious for most people that they were uncomfortable for them to be near the villain's children and some of the other princes and princesses did the same along with other heroes' kids but most stayed, either it was because they were trying to make the new kids welcome or they were just curious.

Ben gave them a sheepish smile and then guided them inside the school and explained how it was founded. Then Ben, Carlos and Jay showed the boys' rooms while Mal, Evie and Lonnie showed the girls' room.

Harriet and Claudine were roommates to Claudine's slight delight and Harriet resignation as she was hoping to be alone and had always had a room for herself, Yzla was sharing with Melinoe which didn't make the girls enthusiastic but still said thanks when Evie showed them the room, Dizzy was sharing room with Hermie who was around her age.

"There's too much room" Claudine said with incredulity.

"Didn't you have your own room at your house?" Harriet asked raising an eyebrow. She knew that most kids didn't have a room for themselves in the Isle, but for all faults Claude Frollo had he would never neglect his child that way.

"Of course I had my own room as you did" The blonde responded stiffly but them looked their room with delight "But it wasn't very comfortable or large, father said that humility is a virtue" Then she looked guilty for liking the room

Harriet rolled her eyes and started to unpack her few belongings, then she fell onto the bed and had to admit that no one in the Isle had a room this comfortable.

Claudine placed her bible on her night table and decided to pray for forgiveness while she thought about her father. Also she wouldn't admit that she was eager to see that blonde guy again.

Her father would call that a sinful desire.

There was a comfortable silence and when Claudine finished her praying, the pirate decided to break the silence as she was getting bored and so she said in an amused tone "I noticed you watching intensely at some boy…"

"Shut up, Harriet"

"It has nothing wrong"

"Forget about it, it's not like I'm going to see him again" The blonde said dismissively.

"It was love at first sight"

"And you know so much about it that you and Anthony lasted for six months before your relationship imploded" Claudine said cuttingly and then realized that it was uncalled for, then asked "Too soon?"

"Whatever" The pirate said, while she and the Tremaine boy had broken up amicably (as amicably you could in the Isle" it was awkward to talk about it and she knew that sooner or later they would have to since they now kind of lived together.

"At least they are not too princess-like" Yzla muttered while unpacking her belonging and putting them at the closet that was assigned to her.

"But there's too much light" Melinoe complained closing the curtains to Yzla's disappointment, the goddess wasn't used to see much light since her family lived in a cave.

They were silent as they weren't friends and didn't like each other, also Melinoe had made fun of the Anti-Hero club when it was formed and Yzma's daughter was almost sure that she was one of the persons who rattled the true motive of the club to .

"Do you think that they will feed us?" Yzla asked getting lain on her bed, it was the first time she had a bed for herself since she and her brother Zevon took turns using the Murphy bed their mother had gotten from the docks before dying a few years ago.

"I heard someone say that dinner is at 18:30" The other girl muttered as she lain on the couch that was on the middle of the room, she took off her shoes and looked around. She could get used to Auradon if everywhere was as comfy as her new room.

"I mean us"

Melinoe was wondering on that, she wasn't really used to getting hunger as her family had a restaurant but knew that it was a possibility though the Rotten Four were well fed, then she shrugged "We could always steal something from the kitchens"

"Agreed" Then she added "I'm interested on seeing how many science books they have at the library"

"Doesn't it have a closing hour?"

"Who cares"

Dizzy and Hermie didn't know each other well but they got along better since were closer in age than the rest. Still they left each other to their own devices and made a silent agreement to do that unless necessary as talking wasn't the Ringmaster's daughter fort.

The younger girl was occupied with her designs and was giddy that her step-cousin had received her gift, while Hermie was trying to make her clothes appear presentable, then she looked at the yellow hat her father had given her and noticed that it was the same one she had used when she was a kid as it had a blue elephant sown.

"Are you okay?" The Tremaine girl asked suddenly.

"Why do you ask?"

"You seem sad"

"I'm not"

"You are crying, Hermie"

Then the black haired girl realized that some tears were running down her cheeks and simply said "He remembered…"

Dizzy then realized what she meant, she had seen the older girl use that hat as a kid before she had entered Dragon Hall's Middle School and Ginny Gothel had ruined it. Then the brunette walked towards her roommate and patted her back not knowing what to say as she knew little to nothing about having a good relationship with a parent.

Evie was going through some dresses in her closet since she wanted to sew more but didn't have any space left and Mal was sketching some things in a sketchbook while she was lain on her bed

"Do you think it was a good idea to bring all of them at once?" Mal asked absently minded, that question was burning in her head since Ben signed the decree.

"I don't know" The other responded with a shrug without looking to her friend and discarding a dress she no longer liked "Ben thought that the Anti-Heroes deserved it…and if I remember well we all agreed that Yen Sid's judgment was to be trusted when it came to the other kids"

Mal bit her lip and nodded "It's just that I don't fully trust Hades' kids and the Plantagenet boy…"

"I agree with you but everyone deserves a chance and if anything goes wrong…" The blue haired girl walked to her friend and sat by her side "We are here to take care of it…and if it gets too difficult we have Fairy Godmother"

"I still don't think that we should have paired them within themselves" Maleficient's daughter then changed the topic" They could be planning something"

"Mal you are starting to sound like Audrey" Evie observed.

"Sorry, it's just that I'm worried for Auradon and I know that if something goes wrong the Council will blame Ben… and us" Mal explained worriedly, she knew that many still didn't approve of her and they still waited to see their fears confirmed.

The blue haired girl put her hand on Mal's shoulder.

"Everything will be okay…at least with VK's involved"

Both friends laughed.
