*back in the present in Lizzie and Duchess's dorm, Duchess was already prepared for the day while Lizzie wildly looking for items*

*two fairy god-mother's in training poofed into the room and gave the girls their class schedules and left*

Lizzie: *looks around annoyed* Why didn't anyone lay out my clothes?! Why do I have to choose what to wear? Has anyone seen my scepter?

Duchess: *looks at her* If you took the time to be organized the night before, then you wouldn't have to go through this every morning.

Lizzie: *scoffs* The word organized doesn't even exist in Wonderland. *looking* Besides, if I were back in Wonderland, I'd have my own playing card army to help me. *admits* I'm still not used to doing all these chores by myself. *feels a comb in her hair* *happily* I've been looking for this!

*Duchess rolls her eyes and looks at the envelopes on her desk, one with a swan seal the other with an Ever After seal*

*she opens the swan sealed letter and reads it*

Dearest Duchess,

I hope this letter finds you well. Each time I look out the window towards the pond and see the swans, I think of you and your mother. Without your companionship, the days feel long, but I know you're doing your duty and that is more important than my boredom. We are so proud that you continue to get perfect grades at Ever After High, just as my daughter and your mother before you. You bring honor to our family, my swan.

Your loving grandmother

Duchess: *smiles calmly and opens her class schedule and reads over it* (Advanced Ballet, Princessology, Home-Economyths, Damsel-in Distressing...WHAT?!) *shocked* What the hex? Why am I registered for General Villainy with Mr. BadWolf?

*Pirouette shrugs her feathers and goes out the window*

Duchess: *worried* This must be a mistake! I'm not supposed to be in this class.

Lizzie: *picking out her clothes* We have a saying in Wonderland. If you're not supposed to be, you should not be supposing.

Duchess: *frowns* (Sometimes, I wonder why we're roommates. I could've gotten anyone one else, especially someone who's neat and tidy, hex I would've taken Ashlynn as a roommate, but I get Lizzie...) *to Lizzie* Aren't you going to read your scroll?

Lizzie- *pulls out her magic card deck from under her bed* As soon as I have my deck of cards. *opens her letter and reads* Princessology. That'll be super easy. I already know all that stuff. Anger Magicment...why do I have to keep taking that class? *annoyed* I'm trying to control my temper, not lose it. It makes me so angry that everyone expects me to be angry! *calms down and continues* Drama, that'll be fun. Maybe I'll get the lead role this year. *disgusted* General Villainy, sounds dreadful and it's the first class. I want to rule Wonderland my way, not by yelling and being mad. *to Duchess* At least we have the class together.

*a ball of quills comes from her pile and unfurls to be a small hedgehog*

Lizzie: *smiles* There you are, Shuffle. Time for class!

*she walks out of the room*

*Duchess follows her out*

*meanwhile in the halls of Ever After a new student arrives and causes some of the students to look in concern specifically some Royals*

*in Headmaster Grimm's office the student walks in*

Milton- *solemn* Ah, I see you hardly had trouble finding your way to the office.

*the student is a boy with short black hair with dark red highlights and piercing red eyes, he has on a black shirt with a fiery dark red owl insignia on it, he has on long gray jeans and knee high black boots with red laces on them, he has on a black leather jacket*

Boy: *admits* Not at all, sir.

Milton: Well, have you got your class schedule?

Boy: The fairy god-mother in training flew after one look at me...

Milton- *sighs* Our fairies must be trained better but luckily I have a copy of all the class schedules assigned. *reads over* General Villainy, perfect start. Advanced Ballet? *looks at him and admit* Given your fairytale it would make sense. Spells, Hexes and General Witchery, Magicology, Dark Sorcery, History of Evil Spells, and Grimmnastics. Your schedule seems to be in order.

Boy: *takes his schedule* Thank you.

Milton: *admits* Despite, the...loss of your father, I hexpect wicked things from you, Noctus Hypnos.

Noctus: *nods* Of course, Headmaster Grimm. *walks out of the office*
