I Put A Spell On You

Back To The Isle Pt. 1

🔮Sophia's P.O.V🔮

Mal comes into the room crying and immediately starts grabbing her things. "Mal, what happened?" I ask her while pulling her in for a hug. "I can't do this. Everyone wants me to act a certain way and pretend to be someone I'm not. I'm going back to the Isle. I don't belong here," She explains. "I'm coming with you then," I tell her, going to grab my stuff and change. "What, Soph, no-" She tries to protest, but I cut her off, saying, "No, I'm coming. I want to see a couple of old friends anyway"

Once we are both ready to go, we get on Mal's bike, which Ben apparently gave her as a gift, and head to the cliff that looks out onto the Isle. "Okay. Okay. Okay. Let's blow this popsicle stand. Yeah?" Mal says mostly to herself, but I nod along. "Noble steed, proud and fair, you shall take me anywhere. Okay. Whew. Please work," She says and starts driving over the water to the Isle. We pass through the barrier and feel a wave of magic hit us, and both exclaim, "Oh!"

She rides the bike down an alleyway while people yell at us, but we just ignore them. "Whoa, what?" "Hey!" "Hey, hey, hey!" "Watch it!"

Then she parks the bike under the stairwell to the old hideout that Evie, Jay, Carlos, Mal, and I had to get away from our parents. I grab a rock and throw it at the flying rocks sign, and the stairs open up, and we take a look around and climb up the stairs.

🔮3rd Person P.O.V🔮

Ben was in his office working on some papers when he hit the intercom button. "Deborah?" "Yes, Your Majesty?" She responds. "Can you ask Lumiere to call me regarding Cotillion?" he asks her. "Yes, sir," She says. "Thank you," Ben says, and then Evie knocks on the door, getting his attention. "Ben?" "Evie! Come on in," Ben tells the blue-haired girl. "Mal's gone back to the Isle, and Sophia went with her," Evie spits out and then notices the distant look on the young king's face. "Ben..." she tries to console him, but Ben interrupts her.

"This is my fault. This is my fault. I-I blew it. She'd been under so much pressure lately, and instead of being understanding, I just went all Beast on her," he rants. then has a look of realization and says, "I have to go there and apologize. I have to go there and--and beg her to come back" 

"Ben, you'll never find her," Evie tells him. Ben starts to speak, but Evie interrupts, "I--" "You need to know how the Isle and how it works and...you have to take me with you." "Yes!" Ben exclaims excitedly but then asks, "Uh, are you sure?" "Yeah. They are my best friends, and we'll bring the boys too, because there's safety in numbers, and none of us is really too popular over there right now," she explains. "Thank you!" Ben says gratefully. "But let's get two things straight. You have to promise me that I won't get stuck there again." "I promise," He responds immediately. "And there's no way you're going looking like that," she says, which makes him look at his clothes in confusion.

🔮Sophia's P.O.V🔮

Mal and I decided to go get our hair done and walk into Lady Tremaine's Curl Up and Dye to see Dizzy, daughter of Drizella, dancing around with headphones on. Dizzy turns around and sees both of us. "Mal! Sophia!" She exclaims, running over to hug me. "Is Evie back too?" She asks. "Nope, but you got half of your older sisters back," I say, squeezing her harder. "I, um, forgot that you guys don't open till midnight," Mal starts awkwardly and then continues. "Place looks good. So what is your deal? Has your grandmother given you any customers yet?" 

"Ah, just a witch here and there. Mostly, it's a lot of scrubbing and scouring and sweeping. Lots and lots of sweeping," Dizzy informs us. "Sounds like the old Cinderella treatment, eh?" Mal questions. "Yeah, she's gone from Wicked Stepmother to Wicked Grandmother," Dizzy explains. 

"That's not really much of a switch," Mal says, then says, "Hey, Dizzy, you used to do Evie and do Sophie, right?" "Yeah. I thought of the little braids for Evie," She says proudly. "You have any ideas for me?" Mal asks Dizzy. Dizzy hums for a second, "Mm," then says to Mal, "The washed-out blonde with purple tips? The best of no worlds. You can't see where your face ends and your hair begins!" then notices Mal's nails and says, "Oh, what is this, Bored to Death Pink? Hmm. How far can I go?" Dizzy then asks her. "The works? I mean, whatever makes me feel like me, but, you know... way worse," Mal tells her, which makes her exclaim, "Yay!" while holding up a pair of scissors.

"You can do my hair also, Dizzy. I was thinking it's time to dye it," I say to her. "Finally," she screams happily, and I chuckle at her excitement. Dizzy then gets to work on both me and Mal's hair. She makes Mal's hair a brighter, almost pinkish purple and mine a lavender purple. Once we are allowed to look, Dizzy spins our chairs to face a mirror. "Hey! There I am," Mal says, and I say, "Dizzy, you never fail to impress"

"Voila!" Dizzy says, and we both say "Voila" while handing the girl money. "For me?" she asks in shock. "Yeah. You earned it," Mal says, handing it to her as I hand mine to her as well. She then skips over to the register when a familiar accented voice says, "Fork it over, you runt. Now the rest of it. Hmm. Thank you. Mm-hmm." Mal steps out from where we are and says, "Still running errands for Uma, or do you actually get to keep what you steal?" "Well, well, well. What a nice surprise," the voice taunts. 

"Hi, Harry," I say as I step around the corner. He pauses for a moment, then says, "Hey, Soph," and then turns to Mal, taunting, "Just wait until Uma hears you're back. She's never gonna give you back your old territory." "Oh, well, that's okay. Because I will be taking it." Harry then steps closer to her and moves her hair with his hook, saying, "I could hurt you" 

"Not without her permission, and with Sophia being here, I bet," Mal says, sticking her gum on the end of his hook. He then puts the gum into his mouth and swipes everything off of the counter dramatically before leaving. I look to Mal, who nods, and I run out after him as Dizzy says, "Great. More sweeping"

I make it out into the alleyway and see Harry halfway down the alley. "Harry," I call out to get his attention and run over to him, slamming myself into him and hugging him. He freezes for a moment and then hugs me back. "I missed you guys," I mumble into his shoulder. "We missed ye too, Soph," He says back. We pull apart from our hug, and he says to me, "I can't believe ye're back." Then he asks me, "Do ye wanna see the rest of the crew?" "Of course," I say, and we start heading to Ursula's Fish and Chips.

We get to the restaurant, and Harry says to me, "Wait out here for a second. I want to surprise them." "Okay," I say, excited to see them. Harry goes inside, and I hear him say, "Uma, I got a surprise for ye." "What is it, Harry?" I hear her say annoyedly. I then take that as my cue to enter and stand in the doorway, saying, "Hey guys." Gil comes over to me and immediately hugs me, then I turn to the teal-haired pirate. "Hey, Uma." She looks over to me in shock, and I head towards her and hug her. "Sophie. I can't believe you're back," she says, smiling, then slaps me on the arm and says, "Why the hell are you back? We told you not to worry about us and enjoy Auradon" 

"I'm not the only one back, Uma. Mal is back too. Things in Auradon started getting stressful, so Mal decided to come back, and I wasn't going to let her come back alone," I explain while rubbing my arm a little. "So it's her fault you're back here in this garbage wreck... gives me another reason to hate her," Uma says, to which I roll my eyes. "Let's not start this, please," I ask Uma. "Fine," Uma relents. "How are things over there?" Uma then asks me. 

"It's nice, but I just don't feel like I fit in," I start, then continue, "It's like everyone there expects us to become the perfect Auradonian citizens, and that's just not us. We will always be the five from the Isle." "Well, you're back now," Uma says.

Harry then comes over and says, "We should probably get ye back; it's late, and none of ye are popular around the Isle right now." "Yeah, that's probably a good idea. I'll see you guys soon," I say, hugging each one, and Harry starts walking with me back to the hideout. 

Once we make it back, Harry says, "This is your stop." I smile at him and say, "I guess so," then continue, "I really missed you, Harry." "I missed ye too, Soph. I better see ye around sometime now that you're back." "Definitely," I agree. Harry turns and starts to walk away, and I call out, "Harry, wait!!!" I walk up to him and bring his face down to mine, kissing him. He pauses for a moment in shock but then returns the kiss, wrapping his arms around my waist and pulling me closer. 

We break apart after a few moments, and Harry says, "I've been waiting to do that, but I expected myself to instigate it." I chuckle and say, "I couldn't help it; I had to. I've liked you for a long time now Harry" "I like ye too Soph" he says and pulls me in for another kiss then says "Better get up there before Mal thinks we killed ye" I laugh and say "Okay I'll see you soon" "Bye Soph" "Bye Harry" I say and head up to the hideout with a large grin on my face.
