MY NAME was Jinx Gothel, daughter of Mother Gothel if you didn't know. She named me 'Jinx' because she said I was bad luck and ruined her life.

My so-called mother was dead, thank god. Parents here on the Isle, especially famous villains, weren't the nicest. Before she died, when I was but a young baby, she handed me off to the streets of the Isle without a care in the world.

The Isle was basically a prison, kids stole and didn't give two shits. I was sort of one of them, you'll see.

I was walking down to a pub for a couple of apples and fruits, I needed them for a good cause. And for that very cause, I stole from people or threatened them for it, sometimes I'd point a blade at their throat or something, just to really push them.

I stepped down the entrance steps and stride over to the cash counter, where you order and pay. I slammed my knife into the wooden surface and smiled sweetly at the worker. "Hi there, could I have a couple fruits?"

He glanced down at the knife, stuck in the table. He nervously nodded, walking to the back. He returned with my goods and gave them to me in a brown sack.

"Thank you." I smirked, removed my blade, threw the bag over my shoulder and walked out without paying.

I went back and returned to the alley. I looked around and made sure no one was watching me, especially the Core Four, they'd think I was weak or nice. I halted to a stop and crouched down in front of the kids. "I'm back, kids."

They smiled from ear to ear and ran towards me, most kids never ate more than a couple of grains a day here. I opened up the bag and let them each take a couple. I heard a chorus of 'thank you's and grateful words, before I left the half-full sack and walked away. "You're welcome."

The second I stepped out of the alley, I was grabbed by my arm. I looked up and saw one of Maleficent's minions. I wasn't super scared, just confused. If Maleficent had to come and fetch me, well, that means I was in trouble or something bad. I haven't done anything... today.

I was dragged and halted to a stop in front of the bitch herself, Maleficent, and placed next to three other teens. Maleficent was talking to her daughter, Mal, neither of them acknowledging my presence for a second.

"Oh! There she is." The horned lady exclaimed, seeing me, while I stayed silent, crossing my arms over my chest.

"Alright, there's news. I buried the lead." She continued, walking a couple of meters away from her daughter. "You five have been chosen to go to a different school... in Auradon."

The three other ones gasped and started to turn around to run, but I stayed put, knowing there would be no way out of this. I sighed heavily, toying with my rings and fingerless gloves.

Mal turned around surprised, holding out a hand for the others to stop trying to run. "What!? I'm not going to some boarding school filled to the brim with prissy pink princesses!"

"And perfect princes!" Evie said in a sing-song voice, seemingly so excited, while stepping forward. Mal looked at her, annoyed and Evie then straightened out. "Ugh.."

"Excuse me, not to be rude or anything, but why do I have to go?" I interrupted them, pointing at myself.

"Because you were chosen. Now, zip it." She glared at me, clearly, this lady was not a fan of mine ever since I almost killed one of her guys.

"Yeah, and I don't do uniforms. Unless it's leather. You feel me?" Jay scoffed, grinning. I rolled my eyes, already hating the group.

"I read somewhere that they allow dogs in Auradon." Carlos said, nervously.

What's the problem with dogs? Wait- who's he the son off? Black, white, red.. fur.. Oh! Cruella De Vil, but didn't she scare the dogs? Not the other way around? Whatever, why do I even care?

"Mom said they're rabid pack animals who eat boys who don't behave." The boy continued. Then Jay crept up behind him and woofed like a mutt, causing them to laugh.

"Yeah, mom we're not going!" Mal denied her mother.

"Oh.. You're thinking small, pumpkin. It's all about world domination!" Maleficent yelled waving her arms around like a lunatic. "Knuckleheads! Mal~"

I took this as a sign to follow her with the other teens.

I stood next to Carlos and behind Mal, as we all looked at Maleficent who was filing her nails down. "You will go. You will find the Fairy Godmother and you will bring me back her magic wand. Easy-peasy."

"What's in it for us?" I sighed, rolling my eyes.

"Matching thrones. Hers-and-hers crowns." She shrugged, not really answering my question.

"I-I think she meant us." The white-haired boy corrected her, and he and Mal pointed between us.

Maleficent threw her nail file over her shoulder, wiggled a finger at Mal, and stood up, hands on the rails. "It's all about you and me, baby! Do you enjoy watching innocent people suffer?"

"Well, yeah, I mean, who doesn't.." Mal replied laughing a little.

"People from Auradon." I chuckled, making her look behind at me.

"Well, then get me the wand and you and I can see all that and so much more!" Maleficent raised her voice, causing the rest of them to flinch and take a step back. "And with that wand and my sceptre, I will be able to bend both good and evil at my will!"

"Our will." The Evil Queen added from behind us, dropping her mirror down, and curling her wrist.

"Our will, our will." She corrected herself and snapped her fingers regaining our attention. "And if you refuse, you're grounded for the rest of your life, missy."

"What.. Mom!" Mal whined, pouting at the same time.

Her mother snapped her hand closed, imitating a mouth, and Mal held her tongue. The two then had a staring contest, eyes turning emerald green. And of course, Mal lost! "Fine. Whatever."

"I win." Maleficent announced to us.

As the rest walked away to their parents, I held out my palm and created illusions of dragons flying in circles.

Eventually, their parents started to say that their kid couldn't go for some rude reason. Maleficent had enough and started walking around yelling and such. I didn't care, all I knew is that I was going whether I like it or not. I leaned against a wall, creating more illusions to distract myself from the horned villain's loud voice.

She opened the 'safe' and took out a spell book, with the help of the Queen. "There she is. It doesn't work here, but it will in Auradon. Remember, when we were spreading evil and ruining lives."

"Like it was yesterday." Queen replied holding Maleficent's hand.

"And now, you will be making your own memories. By doing exactly as I tell you. Door." She handed Mal the book roughly and told the Evil Queen to close the door.

Then a horn honked and everyone started panicking, except me of course, why would I? I walked out the door first and out to the limo, about 20 minutes ago I was packing back at my apartment.

I threw my duffle bag into the trunk and remembered to hide my daggers and knives in my pants and secret pockets. I swung the door open and sat down inside waiting so that we could leave already.
