This is gonna be a single chapter due to I've been busy with real life junk and I don't want to give everything away. Well, enjoy!

End of First Act

After, the fiasco of clawing half of Daring Charming's face Raven knew it was a matter of time before what happened spread throughout the school yard. Tears began to stain her purplish-grey face, mascara ran down her cheeks, and her breathing uneven. Raven needed to leave this school that tormented her so much for so long. Raven summoned her trunk and rummaged through her jewelry box until she pulled out the gem that her mother used to change sizes and used on her belongings to shrink into the trunk. Raven started with her jewelry box, desk, and 'evil' throne.

A knock came from the door.

"Raven, are you in there?" Raven heard Apple's voice from the other side of the door.

Raven didn't response as she shrunk her bed, comforter, and pillows.

"Raven, Raven, please answer the door!" Apple cried out and pounding on the door.

"Apple, what's going on?" Raven heard Blondie's voice.

"I can't open the door!" Apple panicked as she pointed at the door.

Raven began shrinking the mirrors and posters that hung from her walls.

"Apple, is Raven in there?" Maddie's voice was heard.

Raven panicked; she didn't want Maddie to see her like this. Raven quickly shrunk her books, shoes, and clothing. But things kept running into each other making loud noises! With bangs, crashes, and thumps. There was no doubt that the sounds would attract a crowd soon and they needed to get inside the dorm.

"Raven!" Maddie screeched as she banged on the door. Then chainsaw sounds were heard.

"Stand back, everyone!" Hunter shouted as fanfare played in the background.

Raven knew the door would break any moment now! She shrank her vanity/keyboard, her guitar, bookcase, and whatever else was hers even if it meant the wallpaper and flooring. Once everything was shrunk and put in her trunk. Suddenly the door creaked open a bit.

"Raven?" Maddie spoke in an anxious voice.

Raven turned to she her friends with worried expressions on their faces.

Before a word was uttered out Raven placed a force field preventing her friends from coming near her.

The teens banged on the force filled as Raven turned her back to them.

"Raven, stop!" Raven turned to see her worried friends banging on the force field trying to reach out to her.

What truly broke her heart was the sight of a shaking Cedar who couldn't cry due to being a wooden girl, Cerise clawing her desperately to her, and Maddie on her knees as tears ran down her face.

"I'm sorry-" Raven spoke. " It was only a matter of time, before destiny came for me."

And with that Raven's eyes glowed a dark purple, her hands glowed purple flames, and she disappeared into thin air.

Dexter and Hunter's dorm

Dexter was cocooned in his silk navy blue comforter as he wallowed away in self pity. Dexter let out another moan as he curled up into a ball as he clutched his stomach from the pain of Daring embarrassing him and eating a whole carton of rocky road ice cream (with bacon bits and extra marshmallows).

Mr. Cottonhorn hated seeing his friend like this. He knew how much Dexter wanted Raven to be his mate and who could blame him. Every time Raven would come over to study with Dexter she would bring him purple carrots, hay, and apple slices with the seeds removed. Her lap was warm and comfortable to lay on and she always gave the best massages behind his ears at the right spot. Raven never chastised him for nibbling on her hair, collar, or notebook. She never called him cutsey baby names while she talked to him; being a jackalope of high intelligence he appreciated that. Also, it was funny to Dexter's jealousy face when Raven nuzzled his nose, it was so hilarious.

Mr. Cottonhorn jumped on top the bed next Dexter's head and started to nibble on his hair.

"Not now, Mr. Cottonhorn, I'm busy being depressed." Dexter whined.

Mr. Cottonhorn thumped his feet on the bed showing his irritation with Dexter .

"Come on, leave me alone." Dexter whined again a he turned his face to the jackalope.

Mr. Cottonhorn took the opportunity to lick Dexter's forehead.

"Aw, come on!" Dexter laughed as he sat up.

'There's that smile.' Mr. Cottonhorn thought as he jumped into Dexter's lap.

Dexter sighed as he stroke Mr. Cottonhorn's fur. Dexter didn't need Daring's advice to ask some girl for a date, Dexter needed to be himself and ask Raven on a date.

Dexter pulled out his mirrorphone and looked at the time 4:00 the next showing for Sleepless in Seapple would be 5:30, he still had time to ask Raven out.

"That's it! Enough moaning, groaning, and being pathetic! I'm asking Raven out tonight if it's the last thing I do." Dexter got out of bed and straightened his apperance up.

"Thanks for cheering me up, bud." Dexter scratched Mr. Cottonhorn's forehead as he purred.

The tapping sound was coming from the door. As Dexter opened it Pesky jumped in and started chirping with Mr. Cottonhorn. Dexter had no clue what they were talking about, but from what he was picking up from Pesky's body language it wasn't good. Mr. Cottonhorn looked at Dexter with his ears flattened and dashed out the door with Pesky behind him.

"Hey, wait up!" Dexter chased after the two pets unaware of the horrors that awaited him.

Hocus Latte Café

After, leaving the Evil Que- Raven's thronecoming gift under her pillow, Faybelle thought she deserved a treat. She fluttered into the Hocus Latte Café and ordered her usual caramel frappe with extra whipped cream and salted caramel drizzle. Faybelle sat in one of the chairs under the big tree in the center of the café as she was about to close her eyes in relax until she heard her name.

"Faybelle!"

Faybelle's eyes popped open towards the entrance to she a furious Duchess. Fists and teeth clenched, face red, breathing loud, and eyes aimed towards her so called friend.

"Oh, hi Duchess." Faybelle greeted the ballerina girl completely (stupidly) oblivious of Duchess's wrath.

Duchess stomped her way towards Faybelle and grabbed her by the collar of her tunic and screamed. "How could you?"

If everyone in the café wasn't already looking at the two they sure as heck were now.

"How could you something so distasteful, so hurtful, so evil?!" Duchess hissed in Faybelle's face. "You knew I had a chance for a happily ever after, went and told Raven of all people!"

"What are you talking about, Duchess?" Faybelle scoffed as if it were nothing.

Duchess's facial expression went from confused then warped into true hated.

"You bitch! You went behind my back and told Raven how I could avoid being a swan forever by taking these stupid villian classes!" Duchess shouted in Faybelle''s face.

The whole café gasped at what they heard. Was what they were hearing true? Duchess getting a happily ever after? Faybelle and Raven's alliance? That Faybelle would sink so low as to betray her only known friend?

"Me team up with Raven, are you crazy? Also, we're Royals remember? We see our story through no matter what." Faybelle nonchalantly.

"Alright, break it up!" The Barista with the cone hat broke the two apart. "I don't know what's going on, but you two need to stop, or I'll kick you both out!"

Mascara tears ran down Duchess's red face as she glared at Faybelle.

"I thought you were my friend!" Was all Duchess said before she snatched Faybelle's frappe and splashed it on her.

"AHH!" Faybelle let out a horrifying gasped as Duchess stomped outside the café.

The Barista sent Faybelle in the ladies' room to get cleaned up. Faybelle was left soaked, humiliated, and hurt; no doubt the patrons of the café were laughing behind her about what just occurred. As she changed from her favorite tunic to a Hocus Latte Café t-shirt, Faybelle noticed the blonde dye in her hair was soaked by the frappe revealing midnight blue hair. Faybelle dyed her midnight blue hair blonde with a streak of midnight blue after her mother told her that light had no alliance. What about her? The only reason her fairy cheerleaders spend time with her was because they shared the same story, she was their cheer captain, and they feared her. Bunny may be her roommate, but they didn't mean they were friends. Bunny would watch Spindle for her when asked, but that was because Bunny was a goody two-shoes, and Faybelle never did anything to pay her back. Briar is her frenemy, but lately Briar seemed to be avoiding Faybelle most of the time. Duchess seemed to be her only true friend, but now she was livid at her. What happened to make Duchess so mad at her?

Nurse's Office

Daring was now sitting on one of the many plus cots in the Nurse's office surrounded by flowers, boxes of chocolates, 'get well' cards, and a pissed off C.A. Cupid. Daring's cheek was now bandaged up, but the impact of Raven's magical slap, blood, and magic ointments made his cheek itchy, stingy, and hurt.

Daring turned towards Cupid who was sitting next to Daring in one of the visitor chairs reading some fashion magazine to occupy her time. She had a bored expression on her face as she read the same article for the fifth time in a row. Daring was glad for her company even though she was silent and miffed off at him, it was better than having one of his fans crowding over him.

"You can't fool me Cupid, you've been reading the same page since we got in here." Daring spoke.

"You got me there, Sherlock." Cupid huffed as she placed the closed magazine on her lap.

" What I did was really stupid." Daring sighed sadly as he looked down.

"No, really?" Cupid sarcastically agreed with him.

"Cupid! I'm acknowledging that I messed up both Dexter and Raven's chances at being together! I'm not asking you to be supportive of what I've done, but to be supportive that I admitted to messing up!" Daring cried out.

"Fine, but what are we gonna tell Baba Yaga when she gets back?" Cupid questioned.

"Well lying is out of the question. But, I don't want Raven or Dexter in more trouble than I already caused. Either way the two will hate me even more than they do now." Daring admitted as he plopped his head on the pillow behind him.

"Talk about a Morton's fork situation." Cupid nodded in agreement.

"Come in!" Daring shouted to whoever wanted to come in.

The door flung open with flashes and screams as Baba Yaga tried to get in. She cast a force field on the door only allowing her to pass through.

"For Heaven's sake!" Baba Yaga cried out as she straightened her hair.

The two teens would laugh at what just happened, but the fear of being sprayed stopped them.

"Alright you two I've given you enough time; I want to know what happened that caused Raven to attack you Daring, and Cupid you were there so I want your side of the story too. It would also be in your best interest not to lie to me either." Baba Yaga instructed the two.

"It was an accident, Ms. Yaga." Daring admitted. " If anyone should be punished it's me, none of this is Raven's fault."

"I s this true, Cupid." Baba Yaga turned to Cupid and gave her a stern look.

" It's true, Daring did say something 'stupid', but he didn't do it to be malice. He thought he was helping but it came out wrong." Cupid confessed.

Baba Yaga looked sternly at the two, as a teacher she needed to find out what caused Raven to lash out at Daring and find out who was in the wrong. SHe could tell the two were hiding something to protect Raven, and didn't want her to face any form of punishment.

"Look, I understand that Raven is your friend, that something Daring said upseted her, and all of this is a huge misunderstanding. But I need to know what has happened to cause the mess! That! You! Three! Are! In!" Baba Yaga clapped her hands at each word to get her point across.

The two still remain silent.

"Look this is my last time asking -" Baba Yaga was interrupted by the sound of her mirrorphone. "What is -WHAT DO YOU MEAN RAVEN QUEEN HAS LEFT THE SCHOOL?!"

"WHAT?" Daring and Cupid shouted out.

"I'll deal with you two later. Cupid you are to stay here with Daring until I get back." With that Baba Yaga was out the door.

The two teens were left alone again, knowing they couldn't hide the truth forever or until Baba Yage returned.

Underground

After getting the message that Raven Queen had assulted Daring Charming it wouldn't be long until word got out in school, then the Village of Bookend, then the Charming parents. He was already on thin ice after the Legacy Day incident and some parents were thinking about taking their children out to different schools. Once this incident goes out the ice would crack and he would sink into the frozen water below and either die from drowning or freezing to death.

Headmaster Grimm would pat himself on the back for making an underground entrance/exit under the school if the situation wasn't so dire. Headmaster Grimm reached a dead-end that had an a chalk outline of a door that Headmaster Grimm knocked three times on. The door opened and Headmaster Grimm was back in his dark office, as soon as he stepped in he flicked the light switch on, but it never turned on. He continued multiple times before giving up. Headmaster Grimm walked towards the window curtains to let some light in.

*FLICK*

The lights turned themselves on.

"What is the matter with that switch?" Headmaster Grimm questioned what had just happened.

" Maybe it knows your dark deeds." A voice spoke.

Headmaster Grimm collapsed to the ground in fright and crawled behind his desk for safety. Headmaster Grimm peered above his desk to see Mr. Badwolf tossing a bright red apple in his claws up and down.

'Badwolf, you frightened me!" Headmaster Grimm shouted at the wolfman.

"Part of my job." Mr. Badwoolf didn't flinch as he continued to toss the apple in the air.

"If you don't mind, sir, I have some important matters dealing with Miss Queen." Headmaster Grimm stated as he straightened himself up.

"Speaking of Raven Queen, I've noticed that ever since the mandatory apples were introduced she's been agitated lately?" Mr. Badwolf glared into Headmaster Grimm's eyes.

It wasn't a lie that Headmaster Grimm was nervous; Badwolf couldn't have figured him out, right? Headmaster Grimm face turned blood red, fist clenched, and voice powered by dragon's fire.

"I have no idea what you're trying to imply, and why it has to do with me. Miss Queen was always a trouble maker just like her mother for going against the natural order, I'm trying to fix what's been disturbed." Headmaster Grimm composed himself and calmed downed. "Besides she must have eaten a bad apple."

"A bad apple you say?" Mr. Badwolf said as he walked towards one of Grimm's expensive vases that had golden roses in it.

"Yes, a bad apple! It was probably rotten to it's core." Headmaster Grimm stated as he grinded his teeth.

"Or maybe it was evil!" Mr. Badwolf shouted as he ripped the apple in his hand in half.

The sliced apple was dripping black tar like juice onto the roses. Once the dark juices hit the roses' petals a high pitch sound was heard mimicking a scream of horror. the once golden petals wilted, thorns became dull, the stalks went limp, and the vase melted into goops on the floor.

"That vase was a antique!" Headmaster Grimm cried out over his damaged vase.

Before he knew it Mr. Badwolf had tackled him to the ground, his hands pinned down, Mr. Badwolf's knee stabbing his gut, and eyes full of hate peered into his eyes.

"You care more about a damn vase over poisoning one of your own students?" Mr. Badwolf growled into Headmaster Grimm's face.

" I had to!" Headmaster Grimm cried out in terror and pain. "It's for the good of our stories!"

"Liar! That whole poof thing is a load of bull you made up isn't it?" Mr. Badwolf shouted as he transformed from wolf-man mode to full wolf!

In self-defense Grimm kicked the now full wolf off of him, sending Mr. Badwolf into the other side of the wall knocking down many portraits. Mr. Badwolf rose to his knees as he was back in wolfman mode.

"You should be siding with me , you didn't object when I put Miss Swan in your class; why is the daughter of the Evil Queen so different?" Grimm question as he spat some blood out.

Yes, why was it different? It wasn't a lie that Mr. Badwolf was surprised to see the doomed Swan Lake princess in his class more than seeing the son of the heroic Robin Hood. He knew Duchess would antagonize both those with bad endings and happier destinies than her, so he didn't give her much sympathy. Once Headmaster Grimm explained that he but her in the class to take over Raven's destiny and reverse her curse, he didn't question it. Maybe it was some kind of sick sins-of-the-parent-revenge from when his former classmates with happy endings used to mock him. Maybe he didn't force Raven with her destiny was because she was Cerise's first friend and his ex-crush's daughter. But, now he wondered what would happen to the Swan Lake story, Duchess, Raven, Cerise? He was so blinded by tradition Mr. Badwolf forgot he himself broke tradition by bringing Cerise in this world. He didn't just fail himself he failed the students, Duchess, Raven, and Cerise... But, he wouldn't fail them now!

As began to hurl himself at Grimm again, Headmaster Grimm used his magic to trap Mr. Badwolf in mid-air. Mr. Badwolf was paralyzed he didn't speak, blink, or move at all.

"You disappoint me, Breaker." Headmaster Grimm hissed as he wiped the blood from his lips.

Headmaster Grimm knew he couldn't keep frozen forever, he would go and tell everyone about the scheme to turn Raven evil by poisoned apples, he needed to hide him. But where? It then hit Headmaster Grimm as he went to his desk, pulled one of the drawers open, and took one of his many hand mirrors out.

"I cast this spell out to protect, while upon your deeds you shall reflect, you've failed this world to overwhelm and are cast into the mirror realm!" Headmaster Grimm finished casting the spell sending into the hand mirror.

The adrenaline wore off as Headmaster sunk to his knees and gasped for air.

"Headmaster Grimm, are you in there?" Mrs. Trollsworth voice was heard on the other side of the door.

Headmaster Grimm quickly pulled out a healing potion and wolfed down the liquid. His bruises, pain, and fatigue disappeared and he quickly used a cleaning spell to fix up his office.

"What is it ?" Headmaster as he opened the door.

"Raven Queen is nowhere to be found on the school or the Village of bookend. Also the Charming family left you a message." Mrs. Trollsworth answered.

"WHAT!" Headmaster Grimm shouted as his blood pressure rose.

That girl would be the death of him.

Queen Castle

The Good King had just finish paperwork allowing three community gardens to be built before the beginning of Summer. The Good King got up from his throne and stretched as he walked towards his large window that viewed the beach below.

Despite the gray skies, gloomy weather, and waves crashing the Good King smiled at the memories of him and Raven playing on the beach flashed. the two of them making giant sand castles, splashing each other in the water, and eating ice cream cones; he couldn't wait for Summer to come so he could spend time with Raven.

* CELLPHONE NOISES*

"Raven!" The Good King greeted his daughter.

"Hi, dad." Raven said with melancholy in her voice.

"Is everything okay, Raven?" The Good King's cheery demean changed to a worried one.

"Dad, I want you to know that you mean the world to me and I'm sorry." Raven began as tears ran down her face on the other.

"Raven, speak to me my little birdy, is something going on in school?" The Good Kings voice was filled with worried and panic.

" You'll find out soon enough, I just wanted to say thank you for supporting me all these years. I know it wasn't easy for you to raise the future evil queen." Raven whimpered into the mirror phone.

"Raven where are you, did someone do something to you? Raven, answer me? Raven? " The Good King cried into the mirror phone.

"I love you."

"Your call has been disconnected, please try again." A robotic phone voice said on the other line.

"RAVEN!" The Good King's screamed as the other end continued to beep.

Well dang, that was a lot to write! Hope y'all liked this chapter, gotta warn you it'll only get more intense with each chapter (nothing too dark but still). Leave a comment and tell me what you think will happen next. Until next time, bye!
