Since the beginning of time there have been people deciding between good and evil, but when the side of the balance tends to go to the darker side something is wrong.
More than thirty years ago in a meeting between four kings it was decided that a set of people was needed to take care of or at least give direction to all the kingdoms, so 25 councilors were chosen, among fairies, wizards, gnomes, generals and the most powerful magical creatures the ROYALCOUNCIL was formed. But at the moment of greatest chaos five councilors stood out. When King Harry came with the news that he was going to unite with a witch, the Council was against it and asked him to quit. Even in the face of all the "no's", Harry's mind was made up, he was going to get married. The council, although against, accepted the king's decision, except for the fairy (witch) Cirse, the wizard Rashid, the fairy apprentice Helena and Demetrius, royal commander and Harry's best friend.
Cirse entered the third year of the Council's existence, despite being a witch for years, she managed to hide this reality until the end of the council. Cirse was responsible for the spell that turned former King Adam into the Beast. Within the Council Cirse oversaw three entire kingdoms. Rashid was from Wonderland, the wizard was a mysterious being, but what was known was that he could teleport, just like the Cherise Cat, his powers also allowed him to live in human form. It was one of the most important magical creatures, it was present since the beginning of the creation of the Council. His intelligence and insight soon made him think that the attitude taken by Harry would bring everything that magical beings had built to an end.
Helena, the fairy apprentice was not part of the council and was there accompanying the Fairy Queen. When she heard what the king said, contrary to her higher authority she did not accept it. She knew a lot about magic and Harry's union with Agatha was the worst thing that could happen in years. Demetrius was Harry's best friend, the royal commander leading Origon's security. He had joined the Council, thanks to the request of his friend who needed an ally within the council, but was corrupted by power and the possibility of being leader of the Council.
And finally, Colbi, Helena's best friend, son of an elf, at the time did not stand out, but he was always that vote that everyone counted on. When he saw the dissatisfaction of his friend and the other three councilors, he helped create the plan that would put an end to their problem and start the worst of the wars.
"What are we doing here?"
Rashid asked wanting to leave.
After one of the meetings, they waited for everyone to leave to discuss.
"We can't allow Harry to do such an absurd thing."
Cirse made her thoughts clear.
"I still don't understand, why is this so horrible?"
Colbi questioned Agatha's union with the king.
"My dear idiot, good and evil should not mix. There is a balance and the silly king wants to destroy it."
Rashid explained to Colbi.
"What will we do? We don't have the support of the Fairy Queen, the Gnomes, Goblins or any other magical creature. Demetrius any ideas?"
Helena asked, even though everyone thought Harry's marriage was wrong everyone took him at his word and accepted the fact that things were going to change.
"Deme, I know Harry is your friend..."
Cirse said to Demetrius.
"There will be a battle..."
Demetrius began by telling the plan that would change everyone's life forever.
(...)
"Who?"
Ben asked startled.
"We need to get out of here. Bibidi bibidi bu."
Fairy Godmother said preventing them from understanding her speech. They disappeared from the forest and reappeared in Auradon.
"How?"
Carlos was the first to wonder how they ended up there.
"What happened?"
Everyone stared in disbelief at their beloved Auradon. Fallen trees, overturned cars, destroyed monuments, including the great statue of the Beast.
"Helena what's going on?"
Adam walked towards the fairy he had known for a long time.
"Helena?"
Jay heard what Ben's father called and was now trying to understand.
"That's her name." Jane said and received a surprised look from Jay "You didn't think she was called Fairy Godmother, right?"
"What? No, never."
Jay tried to disguise his surprise at the new information.
"Ben and I have fulfilled the prophecy, haven't we?"
Mal walked around everyone until he reached the lost principal and looked her in the eye waiting for an answer.
"What prophecy Mal?"
"Helena!"
The old friend shouted and gaining her attention just pointed forward where a shadow stood. Agatha. She was landing quietly in the place where the great statue of the king once stood.
"Hi guys."
She was still the same way they remembered her. Her appearance seemed the same as ever. As if the years had not passed...
The five former counselors when they saw her landing felt dread run through their bodies. The descendants who were there, even without even knowing who the woman was, also felt a strange chill.
"Hi Mal, it's so great to meet you, you look just like your mother." Agatha had her eyes shining, an evil smile and watched each one paralyzed with fear. "If I were you I would not dare Rashid." She said calmly to the wizard who was planning to vanish like puff of smoke. "How rude of you guys, I'm gone for twenty-five years and when I come back I'm greeted like this."
"What do you want Agatha?"
Fairy Godmother asked trying to show the same courage as years before.
"I thought I made it clear enough since the last time. Oops, where are you going Demi?" Agatha did a little magic and pulled the man who was about to run away. "What happened to the brave young soldier Demetrius? Is he older, has he lost his courage?" She had a sarcasm that she used uniquely against them. "I guess I should present myself to the crown then, shouldn't I?" She started walking between them, scaring them even more. "King Benjamin, or may I call you Ben? Pleased to meet you your highness. Adam and Belle, correct? So, the fairy farce is finally over Cirse?" She asked smiling cheekily. "Evie? An honor to meet the daughter of one of my best friends." She ran her hand over the delicate face of the blue-haired girl who didn't even dare to move. "How indelicate of me, I didn't introduce myself, I'm Agatha Darkness."
"A Darkness?"
Doug asked gaining even more fear.
"The nerd knows me? Origon is Auradon now, from what I see they don't know anything, you guys didn't say anything, right Helena?"
"Fairy Godmother?"
The king was hating more and more the fact that he wasn't in the know.
"Calm down Ben, she'll have plenty of time to explain. The darkest place, the deepest corner will be your new home, where you put me now I send you."
Agatha recited a spell and suddenly they left where they were and were sent to something that looked like a cage so tight. The small room was dark, it felt like there was never any light in there, plus it smelled indescribable. They didn't know where it was, but in many ways it's worse than the Isle of the Lost
"Where are we?"
Jane asked hugging Carlos.
"Demetrius, will you do the honors?"
Agatha asked letting the guard commander talk about the place they both knew well.
"This is the old dungeons."
"You used to lock people up here?"
Mal asked impressed how someone could lock up another human being in this environment.
"Only people of extreme security."
Demetrius stared at Agatha, knowing he did not regret his decision.
"That's inhumane."
Ben said.
"He's pretty cute, don't you think Rashid?" Agatha said about Ben. "Reminds you of someone?"
"What do you intend to do?"
Fairy Godmother asked.
"Nothing with you yet, but you remember what I promised, don't you? And from what I see several princesses are happy now."
"You!"
Cirse ran up to the witch who simply put her hands around her neck with the intention of hanging her.
"Oh Cirse, you don't want to bring up the best of the party now, do you?" She ran her nails down Cirse's neck as the fairy lost her breath. "I have a lot to do yet, why don't you take this time to tell the children about Once Upon a Time, but you don't have to for all the kids, Mal already knows me."
Her eyes on Mal were filled with gratitude, while at the same time sending chills down the spines of every person in the cell.
