FN: A Royal dating a Rebel, that's just not how the tale is told.

MN: She followed her true heart. Which it's kind of what True Hearts Day is all about.

"So fellow fairy tales, Blondie Locks here to give you reactions to the royally rebellious romance."said Blondie as Raven appeared on the screen, where was seen that Apple was behind her running into her bed crying.

"I think it's hexcellent. Ashlynn and Hunter have decided to rewrite their destinies, what's wrong with that?"asked Raven as Apple began crying again.

The screen next turn to Cerise.

"I feel for them. I mean keeping secrets is hard."said Cerise as she was eating a chicken leg before Sparrow try to take it away from her, only for Cerise to scare him off.

Next the screen turned to Daring.

"A Royal and a Rebel, hah, they're from two different worlds." said Daring as he was practicing with his dragon, Legend.

"I am trying to do an interview here!"scoled Daring, causing Legend to start whimpering, before the screen turned to Bruce.

"It's none of my business who my students decide to date. All I want from them is to make sure that they are sure with their decisions and not hesitate to step forward if they decide to make that decision. After all romance is complicated and sometimes people don't see what's right in front of them."said Bruce, not noticing that Kitty and Briar were looking at him from afar.

The screen then turn to Apple.

"I'm worried about Ashlynn and Hunter. If they don't follow their destinies, they're books could close, forever."said Apple with a worried expression.

A short while later Mr Wayne was walking through the halls of Ever After High when he ran into Ashlynn.

"Miss Ella, is something wrong?"asked Mr Wayne as he approached his student.

"I ended things with Hunter as things got super awkward between my friends and my story. But now I'm wondering if I made a huge mistake. I'm just so confused about everything I don't know what I'm going to do."said Ashlynn, feeling like she was extremely confused.

"It's normal to feel what you feel as you wouldn't be you if you didn't feel those feelings of yours. But I've been around long enough to tell that you still care so much about Hunter."said Mr Wayne, as it was clear to him that Ashlynn still loved Hunter very much.

"I do, but I'm a Royal and he's a Rebel. We're from two different worlds and we thought we could make this relationship work, but things have just gone so awkward since we revealed to everyone our relationship."said Ashlynn as Mr Wayne grabbed her by her shoulder.

"Yet it's clear to me that you two love each other very much. Look, I've never been good with romance but I can tell that you two have a spark between one another that shouldn't go out over what others think. All that matters is that you would hunt her love each other and want to be together. Sure there will be obstacles along the way and maybe they will be issues far down the road. But as a couple it's your job to work with each other to pass those obstacles and overcome them."said Mr Wayne, as he didn't want Hunter and Ashlynn to go through what he went through with Selena.

She and him ended their relationship permanently a long time ago when now they're just back to hero and villain.

"Thanks Mr Wayne. I really needed to hear that."said Ashlynn as she hugged her teacher.

"Although there is some who have eyes for you and you still haven't noticed. So I suggest you stop by at the dance later, okay."said Ashlynn, confusing Bruce as she wandered off.

"What was that about. World's greatest detective and I still don't understand the female mind."said Bruce, as women are complicated.

"Now to deal with someone who seems to have serious issues."said Bruce, knowing that there was someone trying to destroy the dance and he figured he might as well do his other students a solid and keep her busy.

Sparrow meanwhile was practicing his guitar when a swan was approaching him. The swan turned into Duchess and she quietly approached Sparrow from behind.

"Sparrow. I need you to help me ruin the True Hearts Dance tonight."

"What?! Why?!"asked Sparrow, wondering what Duchess was thinking.

"Briar is planning it. And if I can get her in trouble with Headmaster Grimm, then there will be a new opening in the Royal ranks."said Duchess like it was super obvious.

"You know what. I am done with you."said Sparrow, as being friends with Duchess was not worth it.

"What's ruffled your feathers?"asked Duchess.

"I, Sparrow Hood, the rockiness, handsomest guy in the school can't find out where the dance is. No one will tell me cuz I'm friends with you"said Sparrow, there's no one else was willing to tell him where the dance was out of fear he would tell Duchess.

"Well someone around here must know something."said Duchess, as someone must know where the dance is.

"You really think anyone is going to tell you the truth?"asked Sparrow, knowing that no one really like Duchess because of her selfish personality.

That was when Duchess spotted Cedar.

"There's someone at the school who is cursed to."said Duchess, before she felt a strong hand grab her by her shoulder.

"Miss Swan. I believe you have an assignment you have to make up."said Mr Wayne as he appeared.

"Mr Wayne! Wait! Can my makeup assignment wait!"said Duchess, before noticing that both Cedar and Sparrow had disappeared.

"No. Now how about you tell me why you want to ruin everyone's fun and end up having everyone hate you."said Mr Wayne, as Duchess must know the ramifications that will happen her if she tells on everyone.

"I just want to move up the upper rankings of the royal system."said Duchess, hoping to get Mr Wayne on her side.

"Why?"asked Mr Wayne.

"Because I do!"

"I have a feeling there's more to the story so how about you sit down and explain to me everything as I have a feeling no one has ever really asked you why you do what you do."said Mr Wayne as he sat Duches down.

"Now why don't you tell me where all that anger comes from?"

"Because... because I'm angry that all the other Royals get happily ever after and I don't!"said Duchess as she began crying to Mr Wayne's shoulder."My story doesn't have a happy ending but everyone else does and it's not fair!"

"Then why don't you want to change it?"asked Mr Wayne.

"Because I want to follow in the footsteps of my mother but at the same time I want my own prince! I've had a crush on Daring since day one but he doesn't even look my way! Then when all of those ninjas attack the school I tried to help him but even then he didn't even notice me! I just want my happily ever after but I know I can't! I know I mean and selfish but that's just who I am."said Duchess as she continue to cry into Mr Wayne's arm.

"Duchess, I understand where your anger is coming from but that's no excuse for ruining your fellow classmates good time. I know you're upset that your were story doesn't get a happily ever after but you shouldn't take your anchor out on anyone else who doesn't deserve it. Ashylnn and Hunter didn't deserve what you did to them as they have never done anything to you. Instead of taking out your frustration on everyone why don't you try to get to know everyone better and improve yourself as a person. Only then you will find true happiness."said Mr Wayne as he wiped away Duchess's tears.

"Now how about a smile is a pretty face like you shouldn't be crying."said Mr Wayne, making Duchess blush.

"Your quite a smooth talker Mr Wayne."said Duchess nervously as Mr Wayne got up.

"Now how about you head back to your room then work on yourself. I'm sure things will work out for the better. Now I expect that make up assignment on my desk tomorrow morning."said Mr Wayne as he walked Duchess back to her room, all the while wondering why she was nuzzling his chest.

"Thank you, Mr Wayne."said Duchess with a blush on her face.

"No problem."said Mr Wayne as he walked her back to her dorm room and let her head back inside.

"Now I hope you think about what you are going to do and reflect on your actions."said Mr Wayne has he left Duchess alone.

"Ahh... so this is what true love feels."said Duchess, feeling her heart flutter as her feelings for Daring disappeared and her feelings for her teacher emerged.

Meanwhile Mr Wayne was walking through the main street of town when he arrived at the red slipper nightclub, where the True Hearts Day dance was going on.

There he saw Ashlynn and Hunter back together hand in hand, shoulder to shoulder. He smiled before he felt someone tugging at his arm.

"Miss Cheshire,. Miss Beauty."said Mr Wayne as he noticed Kitty and Briar pulling him into the club.

"Come on Mr Wayne. The hero of the hour needs to come in for a dance."said Kitty.

"Yeah, because of you dealing with Duchess nothing happened."said Briar.

"Hahaha, I suppose one dance wouldn't hurt."said Mr Wayne, wondering why Kitty and Briar were holding his arms so tightly as they drag them into the club for a dance.
