There was a buzz of excitement throughout the school, fueled by rumors and whispers. Everyone was talking about the arrival of four new students—children of infamous villains. The anticipation was electric as the day finally came when the “villain” kids would step foot on campus. These weren’t just any students; they were the sons and daughters of legendary figures known for their dark deeds. The group consisted of Mal, the daughter of Maleficent; Evie, the Evil Queen’s daughter; Jay, the son of Jafar; and Carlos, Cruella de Vil’s son.

The atmosphere was tense when the sleek, black car pulled up in front of the school, carrying the four newcomers from the Isle of the Lost. As the car doors swung open, Ben, the son of Beast and Belle, was already waiting with a welcoming smile. He was eager to make a good first impression. At his side stood his girlfriend, Audrey, who was equally poised but with a hint of skepticism in her eyes.

Ben stepped forward with confidence, extending his hand in greeting. “It’s so, so good to finally meet you,” he said warmly, his voice steady as he shook hands with Mal, Evie, Jay, and Carlos. Despite the tension in the air, his sincerity was evident.

Throughout the day, Ben took on the role of their guide, leading the new students through the sprawling campus. He introduced them to teachers, pointed out important landmarks, and made sure they knew where their classes were. His demeanor was unfailingly polite and friendly, his natural kindness shining through as he made every effort to help them feel at ease in their new surroundings.

As the day drew to a close, Ben escorted Mal and Evie to their dormitory, knowing they would be sharing a room with you. He waited until they were settled in and the lights in their room dimmed before he quietly knocked on your door. His voice was low, almost a whisper, when he spoke, careful not to wake the others.

“Can I talk to you for a second, Ivy?” he asked, his tone soft yet serious. “It’s about Mal.”
