Waking up to a knock on my door "Queen Marilyn"
"Yes?" i said sitting up with my eyes still closed trying to keep myself sleepy "King Ben asked me to tell you there is a meeting that you have to attend"
"Okay? When does that start?"
"In...about 20 minutes"
"Ahhh" i said screaming as long as i can and i heard a door open "is everything alright?" Timothy said looking around "I'm fine. Leave now" i said waving my hand and he disappeared and my door shut. "Really Ben you couldn't let me know ahead of time" i said mumbling to myself as i drunk a potion i brewed up. Waving my hand over my body and outfit appeared.
"Okay let's go, I'm ready" i said walking to my office, i just had a feeling that they were going to be in there.
Opening my office door there stood Adam, Belle, Fairy Godmother, Ben, and Mal. "Am i late?" i asked sitting on my desk "no right on time?" Adam said "and what's on the agenda today?" i asked looking at everyone. "I think we all know why we're here. The people are in a panic about Hades. He almost got out." Adam said and i rolled my eyes. "Who knows what he would've done if he had escaped?" Fairy Godmother chimed in.
"We can't risk having another villain on the loose." Adam said as i looked at him it started to sink in "I really feel like this is all my fault. I'm supposed to protect Auradon, that's what i was taught from a young age to do." i said as i hopping down and started pacing "Hey Marilyn look at me, you did... you did protect Auradon." Ben said grabbing the sides of my face with his hands. "Every time we open the barrier, we're exposed to danger. Maleficent. Uma. Or Hades."
And as on cue my phone and Ben's went off, looking at the message i sighed "Maleficent's scepter and the queen's crown have been stolen." i said turning back towards everyone.
"Uma"
"We don't know that, Dad." Ben said turning back around to."When the people hear this, they will never wanna leave their houses. What do we tell them? Marilyn...Mal ... What do we do? How do we keep evil out of Auradon?" Belle asked and i stood there not knowing what to say back to Belle, looking over at Mal she started to speak "I think that there's only... one way to guarantee their safety. And I think that there..." Mal started but faded out looking at me "O think that there can't be anymore going in and out. I think that we have to close the barrier. Forever." i said with a heavy heart turning my back from them and looking out the window trying to hide my tears.
"No." i heard Ben say "Son"
"No."
"Ben?" Mal said chasing after him but he kept walking "No no no."
"Ben? Hey. I do not want to take away our dream, Because it was so beautiful and insane yet perfect at the same time but as king and queen, what's our duty?" i said grabbing Ben hand and squeezing it lightly "To protect Auradon but you know what this would mean? All those kids? Are you prepared for that?
