Ever After High: Next Top Villain

Chapter 7: A Scoop of a Snoop

*the Castleteria was bustling with students as they were getting lunch*

*the menu had grilled cheeseburgers with green beans*

*Duchess got her tray and went to go find a seat*

*she saw Lizzie sitting with the Wonderlandians*

Duchess: *thinks* (If I try to sit with Lizzie and the Wonderlandians, that Riddlish will make my head hurt.)

*she looks at another table with the princesses and princes are sitting*

Duchess: (I could sit with the other princes and princesses but the conversation drifts to Royal and Rebel drama.)

*she looks to the table where Cerise, Cupid, Hunter, and Cedar are sitting*

Duchess: *annoyed* (Those Rebels are always creating drama when it's not needed. They need to focus on their grades and following their destinies, but we can't have that and it's all Raven's fault.)

*she looks over to see Raven sitting with Ginger, and Noctus and finally decides to sit by herself*

Duchess: *thinks* (What rotten and nasty thing could I come up with my Friday and how am I supposed to compete with the other's who have evil in their blood.)

*suddenly a jingle and a logo appears on the Mirror Screens causing everyone to look up*

*on the screens a blonde haired girl with blue eyes*

Duchess: *rolls eyes* (Blondie at it again with her show. The school's local snoop. Wonder what the gossip is this time?)

Blondie: *announcing from inside the Castleteria* Hello fairytale fans! It's time for a new edition of Just Right! As usual I have the latest scoop of what's going on at Ever After High! *starts walking around* *excited* On this very morning, Raven Queen along with six other students in the General Villainy class were named the worse group of future evil-doers in the history of our school by Mr. BadWolf. *admits* And that is a direct quote from the spider that sat beside her.

*students start murmuring while looking at Raven's table*

*Duchess looks at Raven's table*

Raven: *mumbles* I gotta watch out for spiders now?

Ginger/Noctus: *snickers lightly*

Blondie: *announces* But Raven and the others have a chance to make things just right. Each student in General Villainy must commit a rotten and nasty act by the end of school on Friday or fairy-fail the assignment. She or he who commits the most rotten and nasty act by the end of school on Friday will get an A and the chance to pick a prize from Mr. BadWolf's treasure vault! The student who wins will be on the right path to evil success. Will it be Raven? Will it be the new dark and mysterious, Noctus?

Noctus: *to Raven with a light smirk* I'm dark and mysterious? I just got here. I guess "don't judge a book by its cover" doesn't matter at this school?

Raven: *sighs and admits* You know about being a villain kid. Instantly feared for our heritage.

Ginger: *lightly nods*

Noctus: *solemn* Or being a villain in general...

Blondie: Will it be Sparrow or Lizzie? The question of the week is: Who will be the Next Top Villain?

*Faybelle flies in with pom-poms*

Faybelle: *announces* It's gonna be me! I'm pretty much taking this assignment. Sparrow doesn't even care. *flies over to Raven's table* The rest of the class are do-gooders. *to Noctus* Noctus, I know you'll make an attempt but I'll still win but I'll at least have some competition this year. *proudly* But this is gonna be a walk in the park as per usual. *smirks wickedly at Raven* And of course Raven doesn't want to be villain, so I'm clearly taking this.
