Descendants Canon: Meet the Notorious Nine

(Mal, Evie, Jay, Carlos, Uma, Gil, Harry, Azalea and Aricka Kore Page.)

(CW: heavily implied child abuse.)

———-

Aricka Kore Page was good at observing. She was queen of the shadows after all. They were her domain, her birthright as daughter of Hades. Her smoke-blue hair and cobalt blue eyes were a dead giveaway as to her her father is, and her pale skin and vicious cackle was a dead giveaway as to her mother.

Right now, she was observing Gaston Jr and Trois, who were arguing loudly over something, and she crept closer to further eavesdrop.

“I should be the one to shoot it down, I saw it first.

“No, I’m older. I deserve the pride of shooting a Bore-adon limo down,” Jr growled. Her blood ran cold at that statement.

An Auradon limo- a MARKED Auradon limo- on the Isle of the Lost-?! The last time they were there they were investigating the kidnapping of a prince from one of the kingdoms. The prince was never found but if he’d been a baby then they never would’ve. The person who did the deed would’ve hid their tracks way too well for them to find him.

Breath in her throat, she scampered through the shadows to the Dragon’s Den. Her twin sister’s domain. Here, Aricka was a mere lackey, not a princess, but that was just as she liked it. She would defer to her twin’s rules anytime she wanted. She chucked the largest rock she could at the “Falling Rocks” sign and as a soon as the stairs were low enough she leapt up and took them two at a time.

She tripped on the last step and fell into the meeting area of the room, startling Evie and Carlos who were also there with Mal. She scrambled to her feet, “Mal-!” She panted. Hand over her chest to regain her breath. “Jr-Trois- Auradon limo- HERE-!”

“Easy, Aricka,” Evie guided her to the ratty couch in the Dragon’s Den, where they both sat down. “Slow down and catch your breath. Then tell us what you saw in the shadows.” Carlos moved to get Aricka’s favorite item in the Den- a soft ratty, holey purple blanket that didn’t smell like mold or seawater, but instead Evie had sprayed it with a liquid that smelled nice. She’d called it lemon verbena. It smelled like the sunshine Aricka loved seeing in Auradon.

If a limo was here that could only mean that Ben had successfully convinced his parents to agree to the VK Isle Reformation Proclamation.

“Mal…” she says, once she could breath without panting. “I heard Gaston Jr and Trois talking about shooting down an Auradon limousine- if they were correct and they saw a limo here on the Isle-,”

“Then that reformation plan you mentioned when you got home was agreed to.” Mal says, crossing her arms. “Which means we need to plan. Carlos, Evie, go to the Junk Shop and make up and excuse to drag Jay from his dad’s grip and grab Azalea when you do.” She turns to her twin. “You and I are going to the docks to grab Uma Gil and Harry. They’ll leave Jonas and Desiree in charge of things while we talk. Meet back here when you get them, E and Carlos.”

With plans in motion, the four teens went about their respective tasks.

~~~~~~

Fifteen minutes later, the well named Notorious Nine were assembled in Mal’s carefully hidden Dragon’s Den:

Demigoddess Fae Mallory Bertha Page, eldest daughter of Maleficent and Hades, legally adopted stepdaughter to Lady Persephone of Olympus.

Demigodess Fae Aricka Kore Page, youngest daughter of Maleficent and Hades, legally adopted stepdaughter of Lady Persephone.

Future vizier in training Jadir Ali, son of Jafar and an unknown mother.

Princess Evelyn Rose Grimhilde, daughter of Lady Regina Grimhilde and Graham Humbert, Regina’s Huntsman.

Super genius Carlos Oscar de Vil, son of Cruella de Vil and William Cecil Clayton.

Captain AND Princess Uma Adira Nautica-Facilier, daughter of Ursula and Dr. Draven Facilier.

First mate Harold Everett Hook, son of Captain James Hook and Queen Narissa.

Master-at-Arms Gilbert Castor Legume, son of Gaston Legume and Paulette Dupont.

Azalea Ixoria, daughter of Hyacinth and an unknown father.

“Right,” Mal says. “The day Aricka said would come has come. Uma, I trust your crew is ready for a seamless transition from your rule to a crew mate of your choice?”

“I selected Jonas, son of Razoul and Mother Gothel, for temporary Captain and Desiree, daughter of Shan Yu and an unknown mother as First Mate,” Uma says.

“For Master-at-Arms I picked Bonnie, daughter of Evelyn Deavor and Arthur Harrow,” Gil added.

“Hadie is taking over the shadows while I’m gone”, Aricka said, knowing that she would go by default to help whoever was going to Auradon.

“Ginny Gothel and Hermie Bing are in charge of our turf whilst we’re away,” Mal adds. “The orphans have been moved into the basements of Bargain Castle, Uma’s Fish and Chip Shoppe, and the various ships we have in our control.” It wasn’t the best solution but it was the only one they had. “Harry, does your older sister know which children are moving onto her ship?” The eldest Hook sibling had procured the Arabella when she was 16, five years prior. She had a fine crew she’d carefully accrued over her rule as captainess, and when Mal had first proposed this manner of action she was the first to join the force.

“Aye,” the first mate drawled. “She’s cleared all the space she could, just waiting for the signal.”

“Uma, your crew ready for new crew members?” Mal confirmed. The teal-and-aquamarine haired captain nods.

“Jonas, Bonnie and Desiree know that they are to let any orphan child who says the code onboard. If they don’t know the code they have to vet them carefully, but if they pass the test they may also be sent aboard.” They would never turn a child away unless they tried something like actively murdering a crew member or one of the main Notorious Nine members, but they still had to be cautious in their actions.

Mal nods. They knew Auradon would pull the key players off the Isle first, to get a feel for things, so they’d been preparing for this day even though it seemed like a crap shoot.

Now that it was here nobody really liked the idea of leaving their turf so exposed, but it was for the good of the kids on the trash heap of a “home” they lived on that they would go.

“Aricka. We have an idea of how things will work thanks to you, but we still have to make sure we don’t meet their expectations. They want us to be evil, so we need to blend in as much as possible. This is where your expertise comes in. You will have to guide us through the social aspect of everything along with Evie, and make sure we don’t make a spectacle of ourselves,” Mal says, locking eyes with her sister. The sapphire-haired princess nods, having expected this.

“Jay, you Harry and Gil are on bodyguard duty. You’re the three strongest looking guys we have, and they’ll be expecting you to be ruthless and mean. So while you are the muscle you’re also to be kind and earnest and you need to each find a hobby that doesn’t purely rely on your strength.”

“Does this mean I can’t play Tourney?” Gil seemed genuinely upset about that notion, and Uma was quick to assuage it,

“No, Gil, you just need another hobby that shows how much of a good person you can be, like drawing or making jewelry or something.”

“Harry, you can join my sewing business I’ll be starting in Auradon,” Evie offered quietly. “We can say that once you get settled in Auradon you realized you didn’t just like sewing basic repairs but you had an eye for fashion as well. Once you get comfortable as a tailor you could start your own shop, and we could be allies in that regard.”

Harry blinks at this, considers, then shrugs. “Might as well, Blueberry,” he says, which was as close to an agreement they would get from him.

“Jay, use your parkour abilities to join some dance classes, show the perfect prissy Auradon kids how the Isle does dance,” Aricka Page says, teasing her allies for how they addressed her mainland friends.

Jay considers this, knowing Aricka would have been able to find classes that fit all their strengths and personalities. “Yeah, that could work… great suggestion Aricka,” he says and offers a hand for her to high five. The shadow princess smiled brilliantly at the Agraben, and reciprocated, interlocking their fingers and shaking their hands.

(It was no secret that Jay had a huge soft spot for her, her having been the one to discover the true atrocities his father committed against him, and had dragged him to her dad one night when it was particularly bad.)

“This has to work, guys. Our parents will likely make us try to get the wand or something to break the barrier down, but we have to play the long con, which means no stealing the wand. We have to be smart and vicious and ruthless but loyal.” Mal looks around the Den. “Head back to your respective parents. They’ll expect us to be oblivious so act like nothing is amiss.” The crew assembled nods their understanding. “Disperse. Meet at Bargain Castle with your parents when Maleficent assembles us.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Thirty minutes later, the well named Notorious Nine were shuffled into an expensive looking limo marked with the Auradon royal crest.

The time had come for a new era.

Whether it was for better or for worse was yet to be seen…

HMB;YDTMWTL-Triplets-?!

(Okay so this is going to be a four part fic- oops-!)

“Dad-!” Aricka pushed herself off the bed and threw herself into the arms of the man who raised her and her brother. “Oh, daddy you’re here-!”

“I am so sorry I’m late, I had a meeting with your uncle Madmartigan about something important, but I’m here now, dearest, darling daughter of mine.” King Kit Charming cradled his firstborn daughter like she would disappear from his sight if he didn’t.

“Uncle Mads is here-?”

“He’s currently talking to King Adam and Queen Belle about your mother; she is currently being escorted back to Sardinia soil where she will be dealt with.” Then Kit saw his son, and opened his arms to him, and Chad fell into the embrace as willingly as his sister had. “Son…”

“Dad..” both twins whispered at the same time. Aricka allowed herself to finally take a deep, long breath, more tears leaking through.

“I am so sorry I wasn’t there,” Kit says. Then he sees the other children gathered in the twins’ room. “I’m sure these are the children you’ve been wanting to introduce me to?” He asks: and Aricka finally; reluctantly untangled herself from her father’s side.

“Uh, yeah. Dad, you already know Ben and Lonnie and Zee (Aziz) and Jane D and Jane L and Audrey and Doug right?” Her dad nods and nods courteously at the cousins. “Right.” She leads him over to Jay and Azalea. “These are two of my new closest friends, Jay Scheherazade and Azalea. Azalea is helping me coordinate supply drop off zones on the Isle until we get all the children, petty criminal and sidekicks back in Auradon. Jay is studying to be a pro Tourney player one day.” Kit offers his hand to both children, who with looks of shock and appreciation shake his hand.

“Dad,” Chad pipes up; holding Uma’s hand and smiling bashfully. “This is Uma Nautica… my girlfriend.”

Kit glances at Chad with a look of surprise and- yep, definitely it was- pride on his face. “You gave your heart to a loyal and fierce young woman; it seems. Uma, you’re welcome at the royal Sardinian table anytime you like.”

Uma shakes his hand with a regal yet barely concealed nervous smile. “I’m going to hold you to that, your majesty,” she says dryly. “I’ve got some crew I left behind and that didn’t sit right with me.”

“I’ll intercede on your behalf with Adam,” Kit assures her.

Aricka grabbed Harry’s hand and gave him an assuring smile at his mildly panicked expression. “Daddy,” she says, catching her dad’s attention. “On that same note- this is my boyfriend Harry.”

Kit extends his hand to Harry as well, “son, I just want to welcome you to the family- I apologize deeply on behalf of my wife-we lost Chad and Aricka’s triplet brother when they were three and she’s been- extremely overprotective of her two remaining twins and her newest daughter ever since.” Mal scoffs and replies,

“Doesn’t give her the right to make such accusations against us OR harm her own child.” Aricka’s cheek was still a faint pink, and her father gently examined it, glaring at the mark like it’d personally offended him.

“I wholeheartedly agree with you, Miss-?”

“Mal Page, and while it’s a pleasure to meet the man responsible for Aricka being alive, I do have a gripe with your wife.”

“I understand your frustration. She has been better in recent years, having not been directly involved with Aricka or Chad’s care as they’ve primarily lived in campus since freshman year. But parent day is the one day she insists on visiting. I’ve never been able to say no to her; not after losing Charles.”

Aricka and Chad look down at the floor- they knew story. They knew they had lost a sibling- a triplet brother; their dad had told them. Charlie had had the same blonde hair as Aricka; and him and Chad looked similar yet different all at once. The two only remembered one other thing about their lost brother- they could still vividly recall the brown bandana that he’d been wearing the day he’d been taken from his bed.

A similar bandana as the one Gil wore all the time.

The same bandana her father now saw as he scanned the room once more. His face paled and Aricka saw her dad’s hands begin to shake. “Son…” he says, looking Gil dead on. “I’m sorry to ask such a thing, but- but where did you find that bandana?”

Gil blinked and removed it, allowing his messy golden curls to frame his face. “I’ve always had it, Mr. King Sir. My uncle Lefou said he found it with me on the barge- he rescued me from it.”

Aricka gasps and Chad’s eyes widen as they put the pieces together.

A baby found in the barge… the same bandana their brother wore… Gil and Chad and Aricka looked so similar and they always managed to get along so well-

As if they were siblings.

Aricka detached herself from Harry’s side and dove back onto the bed to throw her arms around Gil- around Charlie. “Gilly, Gilly; GILLY-!” She sang, more tears falling. “I knew we looked alike.”

“I knew that love of tourney and grapes wasn’t just a coincidence,” Chad says and Aziz moved just in time as Chad tackled both his siblings in a huge hug. “It was you all along,” he said.

“Our brother,” Aricka says, “our Gilly- our Charlie.”

“No- wait- there’s a mistake- I can’t be a prince. I’m a villain, I’m dirty, I-!”

Aricka frames Gil’s face in her hands. “Oh Gil. Did you already forget what I said out there?”

*flashback*

“…And don’t get me started on Gil LeGume- he’s so Good and he just keeps trying to do better, to learn everything he can, to enjoy all the little things in Auradon- Gil, I still wanna cry thinking about you experiencing grapes for the first time…”

*end flashback*

“Gil, you’re a born leader, you have so many clever ideas, you’re sweet and funny and kind and you’re a survivor- you’re Uma’s pirate crew member AND you’re mine and Chad’s brother so that kinda already makes you the best.”

“We want you to be our brother, Gil. Not just because we miss our triplet but because we already love you. Simply because you’re you,” Chad says, ruffling Gil’s hair.

Gil was crying now, honest tears of pain and tentative joy and confusion all at once. “But I’m not smart and I’m clumsy and I can’t do princely things and lead a kingdom and I don’t know what to wear-!”

“Gil, sweet sunshine Gil.” Aricka takes his hands. “You will learn. Mother and father won’t step down from ruling until they’re sure and certain we can all three rule and work together.”

“Gillyweed you should accept their family offer,” Uma says. “Not to offend any royals in the room but Aricka and Chad are the best and brightest in Auradon and they want you to be the best and the brightest too, which you already are.”

“Uma… I didn’t know I was a prince-!”

“I know, bruiser. But you know, this isn’t such a bad thing. Now you can eat good food and grow healthy and learn new things like you’ve been wanting to. And you gain a better family than you had.”

Kit finally makes his way through the crowd of kids watching the proceedings. “Gil…” he says. “For years I’ve wondered what you look like. If you were happy. Safe. I should’ve known that you had been kidnapped to the Isle, but I want to make up for lost time. Please, please let us do the test to confirm what we already know; and then join us for the summer at our home- in Charmington. We would love to host you and Uma and Harry.”

“You could get better at swords and shields, take archery lessons… go swimming in the lake behind our castle..” Aricka listed.

“Go meet our aunt Anastasia’s husband, ride horses, meet Bruno and his pups…” Chad added.

“Meet our mice friends… go roller skating…. Eat ice cream…” Aricka continues.

“The list is endless-!” The twins exclaim at the same time.

“Please Gil? We’ve wanted to know you our whole lives. Please give us a chance,” Aricka says earnestly.

“Yeah; I’ve always wanted a little sister AND brother,” Chad says, him being the older of the twins.

“I’ve always wanted a little brother too,” Aricka says. “If I had to pick, I’d want you, Gilly.”

The boy looks between Aricka and Chad, clocks their earnest gazes, notes the grip Aricka still had on his hands, the smile on Chad’s face- one that mirrored his own- and nodded his head shyly. “Okay… sis,” he says: and then Aricka was crying again, but this time she was happy; and throwing her arms back around Gil and pulling Chad in with her; who grabbed his dad-!- and then the four of them were huddled together on the bed in a family group hug.

Ben clears his throat then, and everyone looks at the future king. “I can make arrangements for a dna test to be conducted here at the castle within the next hour if you want; king Kit,” he says.

Kit teasingly glares at his nephew, “now, none of that “King Kit,” nonsense,” he says. “Uncle Kit or Uncle Charming works just fine, come over here Benjamin.” And then Ben and all the other cousins hugged their uncle.

“Oh-! Dad we didn’t finish the introductions,” Aricka says, gripping Evie’s hand delicately yet firmly. “This is my dearest friend Princess Evie of Hanover. Evie; this is my dad.” Kit takes the girl’s hand and shakes it gently yet firmly like all the others.

“An honor to meet the girl responsible for my daughter’s newfound confidence,” the king says. “And this young man must be Carlos. Aricka and Chad tell me all about you in their letters home.” Carlos blinks but shakes Aricka’s dad’s hand as well. Then he notices Aricka Page and Sebastian White and smiles. “Miss Page, we meet once again,” he says. “And I finally meet the evasive boyfriend you always talk about when we meet.”

Aricka P grins and shakes Kit’s hand as well, “Seb doesn’t like being in public, he’s a bit shy,” she. “Prince Sebastian White of Hanover,” she adds. “It’s an honor to see you again King Charming.” Seb bows formally and nods his head at the king.

“Now,” Mal says. “King Charming says he’ll intercede for us, but what does that mean? And why do you care?”

Kit grows serious once more. “Because my daughter and sons have cousins over there. And you all obviously mean a great deal to my children. That enough is reason for me to intercede on your behalves.”

And kids, that's how Cinderella snapped

(Aricka x Harry Hook)

(AU. What if- the hero kids get sent to a twisted version of Auradon and have to learn to become VKs? And what if the daughter of Cinderella has reached the end of her rope? What if- Cinderella snapped?)

He found her crying in the shadows by Hades’ lair. At least she had the sense to hide before she allowed some of her weaknesses show. “Cinderella…. It’s midnight. Time for the carriage to return to a tomato,” he sing-songs.

“It was a pumpkin,” came the expected response. “Go away.”

“I would but now that you’ve given away your hiding spot you’re in danger. And I in good conscience cannot let you alone in this situation.” He ignored the scoff his words got her. “Now let’s go.” He grabs her arm in a manner that looked more aggressive than it was, guiding her away from Hades’ turf back to the docks- and once there, led her to the Lost Revenge, where Uma was captain.

“First mate on deck!” Bonnie yells, as Harry and the princess make their way on board. “With a visitor. CAPTAIN!”

Uma makes her entrance, a little smirk crossing her face seeing Aricka’s tear streaked face and Harry’s grip. “Come with me,” she drawls, and they follow her. Uma led the way to her personal quarters, shutting the door behind them. “Okay princess. Spill.” And she did; admitting that she went to Azalea and had agreed to become a VK on the condition that they procure her sister Alexandra from the Isle of Heroes. Admission of wanting to be free of the burden of being royalty; of putting others first always; of wanting to feel pretty in her own skin.

Uma nods along to what she says, not saying a word until she was certain that princess was done talking. “Well then, you and Harry have a few things to discuss, then I’ll talk with you. I would suggest you go somewhere private,away from prying eyes and ears. Harry, take her to the Lookout.” The first mate nods and takes hold of Aricka’s arm once more, leading her out just as seemingly forceful as before.

Neither of them said a word until they reached what Aricka assumed was the Lookout. The pirate then stopped, turned to her, bowed respectfully and held out his hand. She tilted her head in confusion. “I assume you know what it means when I offer my hand to you?” He asks with a raised eyebrow.

She blushes and takes it, offering his help over the ledge. “Princess. Welcome to the Lookout. A direct view of your former home.” The girl gasps and tears prick her eyes once more as she looks out to see what she’d once called home.

“I mean- I guess it’s not home anymore. Hasn’t been since August I mean.” Harry’s hands come to rest on her shoulders, pulling her back against his chest.

“Princess…” he begins. “You never were an Isle girl. Were you.”

And there it was. The question she’d been avoiding for a while. The girl takes a shaky breath.

“I’m not sure. But I know I don’t wanna be a pampered, spoiled, perfect prissy princess anymore. I don’t think I ever wanted to be.” The hands on her shoulders slid around her front, almost hugging her against the boy behind her. Ocean and dirt washed over her senses and she felt herself relaxing.

“Good. Makes what I’m about to ask so much easier.” She turns to see him holding a black rose ring. “Former princess Aricka Claire Charming, who came from the Isle to Malice. You stole the most important thing I own from me; and you didn’t even know it. Will you accept this ring and be considered under my protection? Be my- right hand girl?”

“So- like in Isle terms- be your girlfriend?” She asks for clarification. He nods.

“We do dating different here, but we do have a version of it. We pick who we consider best to us, claim that person, and then we protect that person.” He shifts side to side. It hit her suddenly that Harry was- unbelievably- nervous.

He truly cared about her- some no nothing princess.

“Harry..” she cups his hands, where they held the ring. “I am- speechless. Back there. It would’ve been a big flashy affair to ask a Princess’s hand. But- oh- you remembered I don’t like fancy affairs like that. You went out of your way to make me feel- protected. Of course I’ll accept this ring- and you.”

The first mate’s eyes widen and he holds the ring out, sliding it on her right index finger, and seemingly on an impulse, slid his brown leather bracelet off his wrist and slides it on her wrist as well. “You have to understand- this means no going back. The Isle means nothing to you now- excepting your father and Alexandra of course - I’m sure if you told our Queen Mal she’d be quick to get them here. If she understood the dangers they were in.”

Aricka looks at the ring. The bracelet. Up to ocean blue-grey eyes.

Was he worth turning her back on everything she’d ever known?

Chad was here. He was her twin. The only family she’d ever truly needed.

“Okay,” she whispered, then, in a burst of inspiration, removed her black and scarlet leather bracelet and wrapped it around Harry’s own wrist. “Now you’re mine, too.”

Everyone knew Aricka had been “forced” into rejecting her mother’s blue-white-gold color scheme and had been given a black, scarlet and emerald green color scheme.

Aricka had been adapting quicker than the rest of her Isle counterparts- her “Hero Cousins”’as they’d called each other- but this was overwhelming in how quick she’d taken to the custom.

“Harry…” she whispered, “You’re not- telling me everything. Are you.”

“No, princess,” he replied, just as quiet. “Some things are best heard directly from Mal. Brash as she is or not.”

“Okay then.” Easy to please. Something she still had yet to learn and understand. “I’m talking to Mal tomorrow anyway.” Or maybe not. “I’m serious about becoming a VK.”

“I know you are. I know you enough by now to know that when you say something you mean it.” He brushed a finger across her cheekbone. “I must say, you make a most beautiful VK. Much better than the frills and lace and all the stuffy trappings. Freedom becomes you, as they say.” They laugh there together, huddled together on a cliff overlooking not just the kingdom of Malice, but Aricka’s former home.

The Isle of Heroes.

Aricka Charming ceased to be as the girl in Harry’s arms tilted her chin up for a first kiss, melting into the arms of her forever protector.

And in that moment, Aricka the Lost Girl was born.

I’d live forever in this moment… If I could stop… time…

(Pre Aricka Charming x Harry Hook)

(Love at first sight; and so much more.)

*Harry*

Harry stepped out of the limo, hit by how bright everything was, squinting confusedly at first until his eyes adjusted.

As he got used to the light, he scanned the perimeter; and then he saw her.

Her.

She was real-?

“The princess will aid you; open your heart to her and she will help you discover the man you’re going to become. The two of you are destined to be great rulers together…”

The words of the Enchantress flooded his mind as he met her gaze. He didn’t even know her name, but he knew he had to get her to tell him.

Time slowed as she finally met his eye, and she froze too; the two of them moved closer, but everything else seemed frozen. Suspended in time.

“Time stops when suddenly you see her

Time stops, and what you thought you knew

Changes and life beyond this moment

Is better, bigger…” Harry thinks, reaching out to the girl, and she reached back, taking his hand, staring at him in shock and wonder.

“Time stops, but still your heart is beating

Time stops, though you don't take a breath

She's there and all you ever wanted

Is nearer, clearer…” he didn’t ever see himself as the romantic type, as the one who wanted a “happily ever after,” being from the Isle he’d accepted he’d probably never meet someone like that, that he would be a pirate forever. But this girl… didn’t even know she had already affected him completely and they didn’t even know each other’s names.

“I used to think the world was small,

Now I don't think that way at all…” he lifts his hand and she spins in a slow circle; still looking at him with shock, awe and something else in her eyes.

“Time stops when dreams come true before you

Time stops when fantasy is real

I knew this moment was expected

But this good, who could?” The girl was beautiful; in every way a girl could be beautiful. And Harry was already wrapped around her finger.

He was doomed. He wouldn’t ever be able to hurt this little treasure. Ever.

*Aricka*

He was real. He was here. In front of her. And time had stopped.

Just like her dream said.

“That boy is staring and I feel a chill, I don't know why

That boy is staring and the world is still,

Not tumbling by

There's no one talking, but I can hear a thousand voices

What's going on inside me?” He spins her, and she follows, stepping closer to him, trying to memorize every detail of his face.

“That boy is staring, is it me he sees?

I can't be sure, if is he staring, should I try to please

Or be demure?

My hand is trembling, but in this moment nothing scares me

What's going on?” All her life, her mother said a prince wanted someone quiet, respectful; and demure. But this boy seemed so- different; so unique, not like any of the Auradon princes.

She needed him to be in her life, it didn’t matter if he was to be her True Love or her best friend. She just needed his energy.

*Both*

“I used to see what lies ahead..” Harry tugs her one step closer. Before the enchantress he was focused on the kids in the Isle and making sure they were safe.

“I thought my life might be a bore..” before her dream and what Fairy Godmother had said Aricka had worried she would be doomed to be a boring pink princess.

“Now I just see this girl instead…” now the princess he was meant to meet was here: and he knew he was forever bound to her.

“Surely I'm bound for something more-!” She gripped both his hands now, and they finally spoke to each other instead of being lost in thought,

“Time stops and troubles are abandoned

Time stops the minute she/he arrives

I've seen the future in this instant

Subversive, sublime…” The spell was ending, they could both feel time beginning to move again, but Aricka took a final step closer and threw her arms around him: still looking up at him, promising him the next words;

“I’d live forever in this moment

If I could stop-!” And Harry took a step back, though still holding onto her hands.

“Stop time…” and he walked backwards toward his group, feeling a knife in his gut as her fingers slipped through his grip, and the girl whispered a soft;

That boy is staring and I feel a chill

I don't know why…”

And then time resumed: and Aricka is stepping forward to greet them;

“Welcome to Auradon-! I’m Aricka Charming, I’m so excited you’re all here-!”

Life begins when you know how it ends..

(The Enchantress and Harry Hook; pre Aricka x Harry)

(Before Harry and the other VKs leave for Auradon, he’s visited by the Enchantress; who shares something very interesting with him- his future.)

“Come here boy.” Harry whips around, searching for the sound of the voice that called him. Scanning the shadows he spies a woman in a cloak- a very recognizable cloak.

“Enchantress,” he drawls. “I’m on a wee bit of an time crunch, if you could make this quick.”

“Of course dear boy,” she says. “But one can’t rush the future- even if it’s already set.”

“The future?” He asks; titling his head. “What future?”

She inclines her head, motioning him closer. Hesitantly, he obeys. “Your future: my dear boy. And it’s a glorious one.”

“Why would I want-?” He’s cut off by her asking;

“Are you scared of

Hearing one thing new

When you could learn

Something secret that could

Help you through?” She whips out her crystal ball; holding it up as if tempting him to look closer, but as he does she pulls it back to her chest,

“In one good turn

I can show you

Counterfeit from true- Life begins

When you know how it ends,” winking at him she adds,

“And your is no ordinary life-!” He follows her down the alley as she continues,

“You’ll meet a princess in this new world. She has a deep; sad past; familial heartbreak has made it hard for her to open herself up to love from anyone, but she freely gives her own love to others. She’s always on the lookout for others; and her twin brother is her closest ally and friend. The princess will aid you; open your heart to her and she will help you discover the man you’re going to become. The two of you are destined to be great rulers together,” before launching back into song,

“Don't believe

The fairy tales

That say life is a breeze

Every man must face a trial

That brings him to his knees

But let me share a magic truth

A proof of all that thrives

The ones who face their fears lead

The most interesting lives, lives!” She turns to him; tilting her head before asking;

“So, don't you want to see what's next

What's waiting in the void

You may be disappointed

But you may be overjoyed...!”

And only when he slowly nodded his assent; she finally lets him gaze into the ball; and what he sees startled him-

A beautiful princess, wearing a baby blue jacket; pink shirt; and short, black denim skirt held his hand, standing with the other VKs being taken to Auradon later that day, looking up at him with some foreign expression he’d never had given him. He was staring down at her; and instead of a sneer or a snarl on his face he’s smiling softly at the girl; and his free hand came to caress her cheek before tapping her nose, making the appendage wrinkle before she beamed at him; and then; adding onto his shock, she kissed him; standing up on her tiptoes to reach him; and she stole his hat; of all things.

“Who is she?” He asks; quieter than he’d ever been.

“Your soul mate, Harrison. Your True Love. She’s out there. Waiting for you. She doesn’t know it yet, but she is. She wouldn’t have chosen to bring you over if she didn’t have some kind of idea about you.” She pats his cheek almost maternally, before finishing her little song,

“Don't be sad

Don't be scared

Be alert

Be prepared

Take a breath

Take it slow

Let uncertainty go

When you know

How it ends you begin-!” Before she faded into the shadows; she gave him one final word of advice,

“When you meet her, treat her as separate from her twin- treat her as if she is her own person. She will appreciate it.” And then she vanished.

With a scoff and a roll of his eyes, Harry walked to the entrance of Dragon Hall, where Mal, Uma; and the others waited for him.

And then his new life began.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Meanwhile, in Auradon…

Aricka stood beside Ben, who had her arm looped through his, and in her other hand she held a black and white photograph of a child from the Isle of the Lost-

“Soon, Harry,” she whispers, tucking the photo in her jacket pocket. “Our adventure begins soon.”

[arickaandherfictionalothers]

Aricka Potter, Draco, and the Philosopher’s Stone: the boy at Madame Malkin’s

Aricka could hardly believe it. Just hours before; she’d been expecting a perfectly boring birthday, sitting with Harry on the dirt floor of the shack they’d all ran away to, trying to keep out of sight of the Dursleys.

Now; she’d been thrust into a whole new realm of magic and wonder, and she was to attend a new school with her twin at her side. Currently; they were both at a robe fitting, and next she wanted to get a pet- she’d already decided on a cat; much to Hagrid’s dismay.

There was another boy with them, standing there with a bored expression on his face. When he noticed the twins entering, a mask instantly seemed to go up around him; and the twins exchange a subtle glance.

With a bright smile Aricka walked over and stood on a footstool next to him. “Hiya,” she said.

“Hello. Hogwarts, too?” He asks. She nods.

“I’m a bit nervous. We have no idea what we’re getting into. I’m Aricka Potter. You are?”

“I’m Malfoy; Draco Malfoy,” he says; and offers his hand to her. She smiles a bit brighter.

“Pleasure. So- you seem like you have a lot of knowledge and expertise when it comes to Hogwarts- would you care to share with myself and my twin? We were raised by muggles who- ah-,” she scratches the back of her neck, “didn’t care much for magical folk.”

Draco stares at her for a long moment. “The Boy Who Lived and the Girl Who Survived- not know anything about magic?”

“Guess we didn’t all grow up with a silver spoon in one hand and all the money we wanted in the other,” Harry spoke up for the first time the whole conversation. Draco gives him a look.

“Quite right,” he says. “I’m willing to give you my help, but we might not end up in the same houses. That complicates things a bit. Especially if you end up in Gryffindor- and if I’m in Slytherin. There’s a huge rivalry between those two.”

Aricka and Harry exchange another glance. “Could you start with explaining the houses?” Aricka asks. “As non biased as possible?”

Draco nods. “I can do that. I’ll start with Hufflepuff- personally I don’t want to end up there but it’s not as bad as people say. Founded by Helga Hufflepuff, it’s the most inclusive among the four houses, valuing hard work, dedication, patience, loyalty, and fair play rather than a particular aptitude in its members. If you end up there; you probably have a strong moral code, and a sense of right and wrong. They wear black and gold, and have a strong connection to earth. They’re represented by the badger. One of the more famous graduates of Hufflepuff was Newt Scamander, a Magzoologist who published Fantastic Beasts and where to Find Them.”

“What’s the others?” Harry asked.

“Next is Ravenclaw. Founded by Rowena Ravenclaw, characterised by their wit, learning, and wisdom. If you end here; you’re academically motivated and talented. They wear blue and bronze, and have a connection to air.” Harry stands on a footstool for his fitting on the other side of Draco so he could hear. “After that is Gryffindor. Founded by Godric Gryffindor, who championed courage, chivalry, nerve and determination. If you’re placed in that group; you’re generally regarded as brave, sometimes to the point of recklessness. They wear red and gold, and the element they’re affiliated with is fire.”

“And Slytherin?” Aricka asks, looking as though she was leaning toward that one and she hadn’t even heard of it. Draco grins at her.

“That’s my favorite,” he says. “Founded by Salazar Slytherin, he valued cunning, resourcefulness, leadership, and ambition. If you’re here, nine times out of ten you’re a Pureblood, but sometimes a halfbloods or muggleborn ends up there too. Those who end up in Slytherin typically clique together-acquiring leaders- showing their ambition and determination. They wear silver and green, and have a connection to water.”

“What did you mean by pureblood, halfbloods and muggleborn?” Harry asks.

“Right: blood purity. There’s three categories of Wizard blood- your Pureblood- the ones who were born from two full blood wizards. A half blood is a child born of a wizard and a muggle- a non magic person. A muggle born is someone born of two parents who don’t have magic. They inherited magic from somewhere in their family line.” Draco pauses as Madame made another measurement of his arm. “Some say that magic should be kept in the Pureblood families only. But if you ask me, that would make accidental magic happen more often.”

Aricka nods. “Thank you for your help. You can count on me for anything you might need.”

“Make that two of us,” Harry said. Draco glances between the two of them.

“You understand… certain families have roles to play- so if I say something that sounds the complete opposite of what I just told you-,”

“We know the truth,” Aricka said. “We won’t hold it against you.” The blond smiled. Harry held his hand out to Draco.

“I’m Harry.” The boy grins, and takes it, shaking it firmly.

“I’m Draco.”

And thus was the first alteration of a timeline of events.

"When’s the last time you actually slept?"

"You can’t hide that fever from me"

Making them warm soup, and taking care of them, as if they were glass

With Harry

-@yeehawselfshipping

"When’s the last time you actually slept?" The soothing voice of Harry’s girlfriend pulled him from the trancelike state he’d been in. He groans and rubs his eyes with the palms of his hands, feeling like his muscles were made of lead. “You can’t hide that fever from me,” she continues, brushing her hand against his forehead and the other cradling his neck, the blissfully cool sensation of her hands on his sweaty neck a balm to his achy muscles. “Harry, my sweet love, you’re sick. You need rest and to hydrate.”

“Can’t,” he says, voice cracking and sounding nasally. “I’m behind on my assignments-,” here Aricka helps him stand and tugs him in for a hug, which he willingly accepts. His chin rests on her shoulder, and she anchors him against her.

“Oh; love,” she says. “I’ll take care of you, take care of everything. You need to lay down and rest.” She guides him over to the bed, pulls back the covers and coaxes him into lying down, and then she tucked him back in, running her fingers through his hair. “I’m gonna go get a few things. You close your eyes and I’ll be right back.”

The words were gentle and reassuring, her voice like a calm ocean breeze, and they were just soothing enough that Harry drifted off into a fevered sleep, waiting for her to return.

[arickaandherfictionalothers]

Harry is MY boyfriend; you can’t tell me who to love-! (Part One)

(Aricka x Harry Hook; Aricka and Cinderella, Aricka and Kit Charming, Aricka and Chad Charming, the royal Auradonian cousins.)

(Warning: Ella slaps her daughter, mentions of abuse; yelling, use of a sleeping potion against a princess, if I missed anything let me know and I’ll add it-!)

@astralshipper @rosieshipper @hyperionshipping @sappy-secrets @rosepetalcharm @yeehawselfshipping @letsgofoletsgo @tsundere-selfship @friendlyneighborhoodidiot

It had started out so well. Aricka and Chad had woke up early, earlier than for a usual school day, and had met up to get ready for Parent Day together. Chad was wearing a Snow White Original light blue three piece suit, gold cuff links with the Charming royal crest engraved on them, and brown dress shoes to match.

Aricka herself had selected a similar light blue sundress patterned after Little London styles, made and designed by her new dear friend; Evie. It was tulle with a low back with a matching scarf, and she was wearing a low pair of golden heels. She also wore a necklace Harry had found and given her- white gold with a compass charm. “You’ve been guiding me my entire stay here,” he’d explained. “It just makes sense.”

“Do you think Harry will like my outfit?” She asks her twin, as she fixed her makeup for the final time.

“I think Harry likes the princess behind the outfit more than anything,” her twin responds. “And if he doesn’t; well, that’s why you have me.” She smiles and reaches for her twin’s hands.

“You’ve always had my back.”

“Just like you have mine.” And with that, Chad offered her his arm; and they walked out to the party together.

~~~~~~~~~~~

“Their Royal Highnesses, Prince Chadwick Charming of Sardinia and Princess Aricka of Charmington,” the official announcer declared. The twins smiled demurely and waved as they’d been trained, eyes set ahead of them, always focused on their future King of Auradon. Aricka saw a flash of red, blue; and purple; and internally relaxed. The VKs were here,and soon Harry would rescue her.

Everything would be okay after this performance.

Her and Chad took their places with their cousins, each taking a towel and posing just as they’d rehearsed time and again before this day. The boys began beatboxing and the girls softly sang over them,

“Ma chère Mademoiselle,

It is with deepest pride and greatest pleasure

That we welcome you tonight…” Ben begins, a proper kingly smile on his face; he reaches over and squeezes Aricka’s wrist as warmly as possible; the two of them sharing a brief smile as he made his way through the assemblage.

“And now, we invite you to relax,

Let us pull up a chair

As the dining room proudly presents -

Your dinner!” The teens present began bowing in perfect synchrony, the girls chorusing,

“Be our guest!

Be our guest!

Put our service to the test

Tie your napkin 'round your neck, cherie

And we'll provide the rest…” Ben smiles at two princesses and tosses them his own napkin, and the girl who caught it swooned, right into the arms of king Adam himself, and Aricka had to stifle a laugh.

“Soup du jour

Hot hors d'oeuvres

Why we only live to serve…” at that moment, Aricka saw Harry; and she waved covertly; and he smiled at her; not a smirk; not a grimace, her boyfriend smiled at her properly.

Yeah; she melted like a popsicle.

“Try the grey stuff

It's delicious!

Don't believe me?

Ask the dishes…” Chad, Aziz, Doug, Li’l Shang, Bashful Jr, SJ, Pin, and Artie rushed to join their “cousin” Ben and did a very impressive rap for the next verse,

They can sing sing sing

They can dance dance dance

After all, Miss, this is France!

And the dinner here is never ever second best! No!

Go on, unfold your menu-!” They all toss their napkins in the air; continuing,

“Go on, take a glance and then you'll

Be our guest

Oui, our guest

Be our guest guest guest… come on!” All the boys bow, smiling and adding a little,

“Yeah… yeah… yeah…” as the girls take over,

“We tell jokes,

I do tricks!

With my fellow candlesticks

And it's all in perfect taste

That you can bet-!” And to finish they came back together, waving the remaining napkins in the air, swaying side to side and proclaiming,

“Come on and lift your glass

You've won your own free pass

To be our guest-!” Ben reclaimed the spotlight for one final solo,

“If you're stressed

It's fine dining we suggest!” Smiling over at his parents, before rejoining his friends,

“Be our guest!

Be our guest!

Be our guest!” The girls add a soft,

“Oh-oh oh-oh-oh, oh oh oh-oh,” before they all exclaimed,

“BE OUR GUEST-!” Chad ended one one knee, on the cement, Aricka sitting on his leg, arms extended to the sky with perfect smiles on their faces.

~~~~~~

It tanked from there.

Aricka and Harry had been invited to a game of croquet by the King and Queen, Adam and Belle themselves. Harry had looked askance until Aricka graciously answered for both of them, slipping her arm through Harry’s and leading him over to the more private garden party, where the more famous Auradon parents were assembled. Two of them being her own.

Chad had Uma’s arm tucked into his, a seemingly permanent blush on his face. It warmed her heart seeing her twin so happy; and she knew he felt the same regarding her and Harry.

The game went smoothly until they encountered her mother. And by then; it was too late to recover any semblance of normalcy afterward.

~~~~~~~

“The Isle Reformation Proclamation will never take off. It poses too much of a risk to our safety, and what if the barrier doesn’t hold during the transfer of students? What if some villain were to break free?” Her mother ranted to queen Leah.

“Indeed.” The elderly royal mused, scanning the populace. Her eyes widened and she gasped rather dramatically and cried, “YOU-!”

Aricka whipped around at the sound and saw Leah staring at Mal and Ben heading that way. Gripping Harry’s hand she followed, seeing Chad hot on their heels, Evie, Jay, Gil and Carlos not far away. Aricka Page seemingly materialized out of nowhere, gripping her twin’s hand.

“Your majesty queen Leah,” the demigoddess Fae says, laying a gentle hand on the Queen’s arm. “Princess Aricka of Olympus, we’ve met before. May I present my sister Mal Page?”

“How are you so young-?!” The queen exclaims.

“Grammy, this isn’t Maleficent, this is her daughter, Mal. She’s one of the Isle children we brought over for our Reformation Proclamation,”’Audrey tried to explain.

“Audrey- you LET her over-?!” Leah gasped. “After what her mother did you to yours- did to my DAUGHTER-?!”

“Yes, Grammy, Maleficent did that to my mother. Mal has done nothing to me,” Audrey says, grabbing Mal’s hand. “She is my friend.”

Mal seemed thunderstruck by Audrey’s claim, but Aricka Page seemed to have taken over speaking for her twin. “Queen Leah, my twin is more our father’s daughter than she ever was our mother’s. Mal is innocent and has done nothing to deserve your prejudice or hatred.”

“Are you so sure of that? How can we trust you? Any of you?” Aricka Charming paled at the words that came from her own mother’s mouth. “How do we know you haven’t spelled our children to say whatever makes you look good?”

“MOTHER-?!” Aricka and Chad exclaimed.

“I mean look at them. The daughter of the mistress of all evil, who cursed a baby to die before she was even truly alive-,” here Mal’s eyes glowed a dangerous shade of green, only to calm when her sister gripped her hand. “The son of Jafar who tried to take over an entire kingdom because the sultan wouldn’t let him marry the Princess.” Aricka Page also gripped Jay’s hand soothingly so the boy wouldn’t do anything rash. “Not to mention the daughter of the evil queen who is surely nothing more than a gold digger and a cheat.” Aricka and Harry reached to soothe the now crying bluenette, anger burning Aricka’s skin. “The son of Cruella who is surely just as crazy as she was. The voice stealing daughter of Ursula and to make everything WORSE you invited Gaston’s spawn over-?! Belle and Adam’s worst ENEMY-?!”

“Hey that’s not very nice,”’Gil protested softly, only for Ella to speak over him,

“And don’t get me started on your so called boyfriend, daughter of mine. The son of Captain Hook-? Really-?! The man who tried to kill innocent children if they didn’t join his crew-? I bet he was just as evil as his father- he should’ve been left there just like the rest of them-!”

“ENOUGH MOTHER-!” Aricka yells, pushing Harry behind her and staring Cinderella down. “I am sick and tired of this. Ever since we started the Proclamation you’ve been against it. Saying the VKs are dangerous and evil and twisted. What about my cousins, huh? Do the names Diana and Anthony mean NOTHING to you-?! And don’t even THINK about hurting my friends- my chosen family. If you tried to get to know them you’d realize how very wrong your judgments of them are. Mal is so talented and creative and she just wanted to go to school and get more kids safe and off the Isle. Jay is strong and athletic and a great dancer and an even more loyal bodyguard and friend. Evie is beautiful and smart and kind and has a great fashion sense- she made my dress I’m wearing today.

Uma is not her mother- she is an amazing chef, navigator and storyteller. And don’t get me started on Gil LeGume- he’s so Good and he just keeps trying to do better, to learn everything he can, to enjoy all the little things in Auradon- Gil, I still wanna cry thinking about you experiencing grapes for the first time.” The blonde haired VK who looked too much like her and Chad smiled and said,

“Aw, thanks Aricka; I like you too-!” And she laughed because he was so easy to love.

“And finally, we come to Harry. And I could write a whole book on how he has changed me for the better. Harry showed me that I have worth simply because I am a good ally and friend to everyone I meet, that my beauty is from within; and that my power comes from the knowledge of those who have my back. Harry, I am forever grateful that we met and know each other. And Harry,” she takes a deep breath, “I know we’ve only known each other for a short time but I love you, plain and simple. I don’t care what anyone says or thinks, I’m yours. I’d give up being a princess if it meant I could be your girlfriend. Plain and simple.” And there; in front of everyone, she stood on tiptoes and kissed him, only to be jerked toward her mother who hissed,

“How DARE YOU-!” She wrenched away from her mother’s grip to retort,

“I dare because Harry is MY boyfriend; you can’t tell me who or how to love-!” A stinging sensation filled her cheek and Aricka recoiled from the feeling of being slapped.

Her mother hit her. Actually hit her. Her mother raised her hand to strike once more only for the queen of Cinderellasburg to fall down in a faint, Evie holding a blue bottle in her hand.

“Aricka come on-!” Harry retook her hand, and her other was claimed by Evie, and together they- hero and Isle child alike- ran to the safety of their dorms to regroup.

Harry is MY boyfriend; you don’t tell me who to love-!

(Part two)

(Aricka x Harry Hook. Aricka and the Hero Kids. Aricka and the Isle Kids. Aricka and Chad Charming.)

(The aftermath.)

(Note: in my Descendants canon Emma Swan is the teen daughter of Snow and David Charming, of the White Kingdom. Killian is the son of Will and Elizabeth Turner. )

Evie, Aricka and Harry stumbled into the room the Charming twins shared together (their mother had payed the school to allow them to be in the same dorm), and Mal magically locked the door behind them. Aricka was pulled onto her bed, which currently housed Chad, Uma, Gil, Aziz, and also now herself and Harry.

Harry pushed her so she was leaning against her twin; and he surprised everyone (excluding herself and Uma) by laying his head down on her shoulder, arms wound tightly as possible around her middle. She busied herself by running her fingers through his too perfectly gelled hair, mussing it up back to his usual style, noting that Chad was undoing her own perfect French braids- all twelve of them, symbolizing the hour her mother ran down the palace steps when she was still just a scullery maid- and detangling every knot and snarl he came across with a gentle hand.

Mal and Evie were warding the room, while Ben and Jay and Doug were discussing how to keep everyone in the room safe until the noise died down. Uma was doing the opposite of Chad and was braiding Gil’s hair, the golden curls easily manageable and braidable it seemed. Aziz was texting furiously- probably letting his awesome protective parents know that he and his friends and cousins were okay and all in one place.

Carlos, Lonnie, Audrey, Jane L, Jane C, Emma, and Killian were all on Chad’s bed, Carlos being wedged between Jane LaFae and Audrey, both girls asking if he was alright and seeming very protective of him.

Aricka’s stomach churned and she felt like she might cry. She was suddenly aware of a presence in front of her and she looked up to see Azalea hovering nearby, a worried look on xeir face. The look was enough to make her face crumble and the first few tears fall down her cheeks. “Oh- oh no,” she mumbled, “my- my makeup- it’s- I’m- oh no-!”

Harry immediately sat up, hands coming up to cup her face, thumbs wiping away the salty water slipping from her eyelids, as her shoulders began to shake. “Love, you’re not tainted, not dirty. Crying is natural and healthy and your body needs this release to move forward. Just let it happen. You’re safe here; everyone here loves you.”

“But my mascara- my eyeshadow- I’m dirty, Harry. Unclean. Gross….”

“You are absolutely not gross,” Evie says, tugging one of Aricka’s hands from Harry’s grip, “I cry all the time, am I dirty? Or unclean?”

“N-no-!” Aricka cried, face pale and eyes red rimmed. “Evie you’re beautiful and lovely and smart and kind and-!”

“Then so are you. Purely because you are an Auradon girl who never stops trying to be better and to understand.”

“I can’t- Chad- she said- she said-!”

“I got this,” Chad says, “excuse me a sec Harry.” The pirate moved over so Chad could take his spot. “Hey sis-a-roo. Sis. Sissy. Twinny. Look at me. I’m right there with you. I don’t think what our mother taught us was right. If we were gonna be rejected the second we showed a flaw or imperfection everyone would’ve already left but look up.” She shook her head. “Ariellllllll….” He sang. “Come on tiny. Teeny. Itsy-bitsy…. Starburst?” Nothing. “Butterfingers?” The name got her to finally look up at Chad only. “Look around us. Please?”

She glances around the room to see what Chad saw-

Everyone was still there. Watching her, granted, and yes that was humiliating all in itself but they-

They didn’t think she was loathsome for having runny makeup and nose. For having a torn skirt. For having a bright red slap imprint on her cheek.

“Chad…” she whispered. “You- they- I don’t understand-?”

“Oh, evil,” Mal says, “of course you knew how to comfort us about our crappy parents; you’ve got a crappy mom.” The purple haired demigoddess Fae suddenly marched over and wrapped the pale-blonde princess in a protective but careful embrace, “my mom used to do the same thing- act all flowery and sweet one minute and the next she was pulling the rug from underneath me.” Aricka was shaking again, face pressed firmly against Mal’s light purple jacket. “You’re une princesse guerrière, and I am going to be your fée protectrice.”

Aricka gulps and whispers, “You are ma reine des fées, Mal. Have been for a while. Ma reine dragon, as well.”

“She’s right about that, min modige kriger,” Uma says, wrapping herself around Chad, “while your perfect parents tried to take our voices- while my mother stole voices- Aricka, you GAVE us your voice. Gave us A voice. You spoke for us when we couldn’t or risk being sent back to the Isle.”

“U-Uma, I wish you had been born here; safe, wish we could’ve all been friends from the beginning,” Aricka croaked; and then Uma was hugging her, saying,

“That’s why you were our first chosen friend here. You never once saw us as different, you saw us as friends you just hadn’t truly met yet. You saw us as equals. You explained to us how you worked, how life here worked.”

“She’s right, meine Kriegerprinzessin,” Evie said, adding to everyone calling Aricka a warrior princess. “We chose you.”

“Since the moment we met you’ve been my compass, my treasure, mo chridhe, love, nobody is replacing you.”

“Chad; we didn’t forget you, you’re every bit as dear as your twin. You both helped us in different ways.” Then CHAD was crying and Aricka gripped her brother and then every VK and Hero Kid was in a giant cuddle heap.

“I- I can’t believe she hit me,” Aricka whispers. “She’s never hit me before-,”

“And if she knows what’s good for her she never will again,” Jay said, affirmed by Azalea.

“I’m going to make protection bracelets for you and Chad; if she tries anything you’ll just have to activate the beam and we can teleport to you or vice versa,” Mal swore.

“Same here princess, you and all the hero kids, you’re all getting some form of a protection charm,” Uma adds.

“I want one for Aricka Page,” Seb White suddenly spoke up. “She can handle herself but- it would make me feel better. Knowing we can find each other.”

“We can make that happen,” Azalea assured. “Everyone in this room has done so much to help us it’s the least we can do.”

“Indeed,” Evie says. “I will make sure that all of you get something of ours to ensure everyone knows you’re under our protection.”

“Hey-um-princess Aricka-?” Gil. Aricka wiggled up so she could see the blond pirate. “Those things you said back there- did you really mean that?”

Aricka and Chad don’t even glance at each other as they both move over to Gil, moving as two parts of the same brain almost. Aricka slowly reaches for Gil and then when he didn’t flinch or move away she wrapped her arms carefully around him, Chad doing the same. “Gilly…” she says. “You are the sunshine of this group. We need sunshine to thrive. We all love and need you, Sunny. Don’t doubt your place here. You try so hard; and you’re so Good. You just absorb everything good like a sponge, and you smile at the smallest pleasures. I’m proud to call you my friend. My sunshine. My Gil.”

“And you’re super strong and athletic,” Chad adds. “You’re going to be one of the best graduating Tourney players in Auradon. And one of the best swords and shields players. I bet you could even learn to be a super amazing chef, with all the recipes you’ve been working on.”

By now the “sunshine” of the group was crying too, and Aricka sent Uma a panicked apologetic glance, only for the teal-haired pirate to wave her on. “It’s okay Gil, they mean it,” Uma asserts. “Aricka and Chad only say what they mean. If they say you’re sunshine, they’re just affirming what we all think and know.”

“Oh wow…” Gilly said, glancing at the twin royals who looked so much like him- Aricka with her light blue eyes and pale blonde hair; Chad with his smile and curls and the similar facial structure. “Oh, wow… you really mean it- you meant it all-,”

Summary: The war is over. Voldemort is dead. The ministry decides on a unique strategy to reform the remaining death-eaters. They design a potion that turns the person who drank it into a young child, placed under the care of someone on the “light”’side of the war. They age a year every two weeks and are regularly checked on to ensure they are learning from the experience.

Draco is placed in the care of Aricka Potter, known as the “Girl Who Survived,” and then “The Girl Who Never Missed Her Mark,” to Wizarding Society. She specifically requested that Draco be put in her care, citing “he was never cruel to me in school, I see the good hidden in him.”

Aricka is determined to bring the soft, caring side of Draco out.

Will he let her? Or will this be another example of how everyone leaves him behind?
