OPHELIA'S eyes widened when she saw Yzla and Zevon walk in. Of course, Harriette, Uma, Cj (Ophelia smiled at her and got one in return), Harry, Gil and Junior were there of course, but Yzla and Zevon were her siblings!

Lucy smiled evilly - or well, as evilly as a 'good person' could - and said, "Welcome, children. As you can see," She pointed at the core four and Ophelia. "Your friends have tried to take you away, but failed."

Gerald continued. "They will be in class with you. We also have a new rule. Girls and boys are allowed to mingle. It's part of your class. You won't be sharing lessons, but you can see each other."

"Gerrykins and I have somewhere to be, so behave." Lucy said threateningly and left, pulling Gerald with her.

"It's about the tests," She was saying.

Harriette and Cj walked over to Harry and hugged him.

"You idiot brother," Cj said. "Getting your shaved."

Harry groaned. "Don't remind me,"

"She'll never let you live it down, Har-Har." Harriette laughed.

"Don't call me that!"

Yzla walked over to Zevon and slapped him saying "You absolute moron!" before hugging him tightly.

"Missed you too, Yzla." He chuckled.

Uma went up to Gil - her honorary brother - and hugged him. "Missed ya, Egghead." She said, pulling away and ruffling his short hair.

"Uma," Gil whined. "Don't touch my hair!"

Junior chuckled. Harriette noticed it and walked over to him and covered his eyes from behind.

"Guess who?" She said in a sing-song voice.

Junior laughed and pretended to think. "Hmmm I don't know. Lucy Deverux?"

Harriette withdrew her hand, scrunching up her nose. "Okay, I'm offended you think I sound like Lucy Deverux!"

Junior hugged her. "I missed you,"

"I missed you too, fiance." Harriette said, kissing him.

"Fiance?" Harry cried.

"Yeah, Junior and I are engaged!" Harriette announced.

Cj clapped and cheered. Zevon grinned. Gil wolf whistled with Uma. Yzla tried to hide a smile.

She and Zevon walked over to Ophelia. "What were you thinking, Lia?" He asked.

"I just wanted to save you," She defended.

"Well," Yzla said sarcastically. "Good job,"

Ophelia pouted. Carlos looked at her and tilted his head. Did her lips always look so kissayou?

Cj ran over to Ophelia and hugged her tight.

"Can't. Breath." Ophelia panted. "Bury me in a purple and black casket."

Cj rolled her eyes fondly and pulled away. "I missed you, Li-Li."

"I missed you too, Cali. A lot." Ophelia smiled.

"Hate to break up this moment, but y'all look hilarious!" Jay said, laughing.

Harry gave him the finger.

"Oof," Evie winced. "You look like fashion catastrophes!"

"Blame Lucy and Gerald." They said simultaneously.

"You mean those jerks who trapped us here?" Mal asked. "I'm not surprised, for some reason."

Lucy and Gerald chose that moment to come back. They both looked somber.

She cleared her throat. "Mal Moors, Evie Grimhilde, Ophelia Groové? Follow me."

The three girls exchanged looks and followed her as she left.

"Boys, follow me." Gerald ordered.

Jay and Carlos blinked, but followed after him.

Harry, Zevon, Gil and Junior looked confused. What had put him in such a bad mood?

30 Minutes Earlier, when Lucy Deverux had pulled Gerald Terry out of the room to talk.

"What is it, Lucy?" Gerald asked.

She didn't reply, but pushed a file into his hands. He read the paper stuck in front of it.

"The test results?" He asked to confirm. Lucy nodded.

He opened the file and started reading. At Zevon's name, he came to a stop.

NAME: Zevon Levi Groové (Terry)

PARENTS: Gerald Terry (father), Gothel (Mother), Yzma Groové (Adoptive mother)

SIBLINGS: Yzla Groové (Adoptive sister), Ginny Gothel (Half-sister), Ophelia Groové (Adoptive sister)

Gerald looked up from the file with a horrified face.

"Well Gerrykins," Lucy said, crossing her arms. "You have some explaining to do."
