"Yes, you and Ben were the ones who would fulfill the prophecy."

Fairy Godmother told.

"That's why we wanted to separate them."

Colbi revealed making Mal and Ben even more stressed.

"Colbi!"

Cirse warned him when she heard what her friend had said.

"How?"

Just like everyone else inside the dungeon Mal was startled by the comment made.

"What's the big deal now? It doesn't matter anymore, we failed."

Demetrius spoke.

"Did you try to separate us?"

Ben looked at him sternly.

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Demetrius shouted as if that would take away something that was stuck in his throat.

"Mal and Ben don't understand, but there is a balance that has always been respected..."

Rashid tried to appease the situation.

"Since when do you know?"

Ben questioned again.

"I don't understand."

Rashid said.

"Since when do you know that Mal and I are part of the spell."

Ben rephrased the question.

"At Mal's Court Lady introduction, we thought it might be because of the kiss, but the confirmation came through Marlin."

Fairy Godmother told.

"What does Marlin have to do with it?"

Mal asked.

"I... I thought his magic was special, especially after his transformation into a dragon. I guess by now you must know that your mother was good friends with Agatha and that a lot of Maleficent's magic was learned from her...so...so...I... I."

Fairy Godmother wanted to tell the whole truth without feeling shame for her actions.

"Mom?"

Jane doubted nothing else, yet it was still unbelievable that her mother, an example of kindness, had been capable of such atrocities.

"I asked Marlin to make a dimension of magic in you."

Fairy Godmother confessed.

"So, it had nothing to do with helping me control my magic?"

Mal asked.

"No, Marlin measured and saw that you have extensive magic running through your body and that you were on a heavy overload."

"He drained your powers, that's why you were feeling so weak. Today the last drain would happen."

Colbi spoke to them.

"You were taking my magic away from me?"

Mal questioned them startled.

"Mal, you were on overload, it was the best thing for you."

"Wait, you said the last drain was going to be today, why didn't it happen?"

"He died."

The general said in cold blood, as if it was normal.

"You can't be... I don't believe you can be capable of that."

Carlos said as shocked as the others.

"So, for five years you've been trying to break us up?"

"We figured after all this time you'd give up on being together, but no, ever since the marriage proposal, we've been trying to stop you."

Cirse revealed.

"Look, I know this sounds like a bad thing..."

Fairy Godmother began to speak.

"Does it look bad? You tried to stop our wedding."

"Ben, take it easy."

Adam asked looking at his son.

"Don't ask me to take it easy dad! Look where we are. They've been lying to us all these years, hiding the truth..."

"Ben, look at me and try to stay calm."

Mal stepped in front of him and hugged him trying to calm him down.

Auradon

The witch who maintained her 24-year-old appearance was walking around Auradon.

"So Origon has turned into Auradon?" She walked around the castle garden quietly. "I'm sorry for destroying your castle, honey." She ran her hands through the flowers and remembered what in a fit of rage did.

The witch would not cause Auradon any harm for now. Agatha went through every room of the great castle wanting to know him and looking for something.

"Ben, I came to apologize for not coming to the wedding." Cinderella's son entered the king's study and found the woman. "Who are you?"

"Agatha Darkness, nice to meet you."

"Are you a villain?"

"The cape helped you, didn't it?" She said wryly as always. "So, you didn't go to your best friend Prince Chad Charming Junior's wedding?"

"How do you know my name?"

"I know many things, Your Highness, including that you still like Princess Audrey."

"Where is everyone?"

"Chad, maybe it would have been better for you to stay at your house."

She said, running her hand over the then innocent boy's face.

"What do you mean by that?"

"Well, I've been gone a long time, I need a tour guide."

Dungeons

After all the revelations there was nothing more to be said. The descendants were on one side of the cell, while the ex-councillors were on the other. Helena glanced at Jane from time to time, but her daughter was hiding in Carlos. Despite all the evil that was about to befall Auradon, Ben and those there needed to think about what had happened, after all, two hours ago they had been at a wedding and now they were in prison.

The hours passed and they continued in the same way, Doug, Ben, Carlos and Jay hugged their girlfriends in order to ward off the cold.

"Jane..."

Helena finally worked up the courage to call out to her.

"Not now mom, please."

She asked looking quickly at her.

"I wanted to know how Tommy is?"

Evie said to her husband dying of worry for the little one, after all this, the maternal instinct seemed to scream from within her.

"My father is taking good care of him."

Doug tried to reassure her as best he could.

Mal seeing all this and her friend's distress couldn't help but feel guilty for the things that were happening.

"The boy, Jafar's son." The former general spoke to Jay who glared at him with anger and contempt. "There's another cell next door and I think this cubicle is getting a little cramped. So, if those arms of yours do anything other than throw a ball around, you could break down this wall don't you think?"

"Jay, no!"

Loonie pulled her boyfriend up seeing that he will already stand up with his fists clenched.

"I'll help you Jay."

The king stood up and with a few punches and kicks to the wall, the bricks fell away, showing another cell.

"We go to the other cell and you stay here."

Jay warned.

Everyone settled down, even though it was extremely hard, they were going to try to sleep and tomorrow they would think of something.

"Beautiful honeymoon, don't you think?"

Ben joked. Lying on the floor, hugging and using his tuxedo as a blanket, they just wanted peace.

"I was hoping for somewhere sunnier."

She teased him.

"Do you know where I was planning to take you?"

Since he wasn't going, why not pique his curiosity.

"No."

"I set aside two days in our schedules to go to Arendelle, I think you'd like it there."

"Who knows, maybe after we defeat that village we'll go."

Mal proposed.

"Just beat that villain some more, right?"
