Once Upon a Dream

16th Anniversary

* Information: In no Disney media is the Fairy Godmother's name given. It is known that this is not her name, because Fauna, Flora and Spring are also fairy godmothers and have other names. So here in the fanfic the Fairy Godmother's name is Helena.

Belle remembered well when a week before her adorable son's third birthday, Fairy Godmother turned to her and her husband and said, "Well, since it's been four years and nothing has happened to you or Adam. Perhaps, we should consider the possibility that Ben is involved in this curse."

From that day forward Adam and his wife wished that it was they who would suffer all the possible consequences. However, time increasingly made the sweet couple believe that the greatest pain the Witch could cause them would happen. She would harm their child.

(...)

Adam would have a normal day at work, meetings with workers, security, provinces, etc, however as soon as he arrived in his meeting room, he was told that Fairy Godmother wanted to see him. The Fairy didn't call him much, so when he heard her name, he felt a shiver run down his spine.

"Helena." He called her name, which very few people were aware of. "Any problems with Ben or Auradon Prep.?"

"Ben wouldn't give trouble even if he wanted to." The two laughed at the prince's posture. "But the issue is about him." At that moment the father knew what she wanted to talk about

"Have you found out anything?"

He asked afraid to hear the answer

"Yes, however it is not specific with the prophecy." The two sat down face to face. The fairy was ready to tell his greatest discovery. "Look, I haven't found out anything about the prophecy, but I've read a lot about Circe, witchcraft, and everything that's been possible to read in the last few days, in the last few years. If Ben is really the goal of her prophecy, as I believe he is, it will happen now. Ben will be sixteen and that is the age when most witches' spells are fulfilled. Aurora, that southern princess, and this are the ones I know the most about. I don't know, why this specificity or if my theory is correct, but Adam we need to keep an eye on him during this year."

This the king didn't expect, especially with the boy's birthday being the next day. How to explain this to Belle?

(...)

Even with what the former beast believed to be a curse; fate was being fulfilled according to what was written.

Isle of the Lost

"She will be born of the shadows, but it will be by trying to stay away from her mother's shadow, that she will learn to live. Her name did not do justice to who she really is, but it makes her so unique. Mal is the most beautiful flower to be discovered, because she was born in a place where no one is born, only survives. She never asked to be born there or to be the daughter of who she was. However, her story was different, her mother had been eternalized and the sweet girl would also have her own story. Her marks would scream, her scars would always be alive and she would never forget where she came from, however, her story was beyond the borders, which they had set for her."

She always left home prepared, with her combat boots, jacket graffitied in purple and green, because those were the colors of power and so were the sprays they had in the store. The important thing is that after customizing it, it looked amazing. A knife, just in case, her sketchbook and other sprays to get her through that filthy island.

She was not the five-year-old girl anymore, she was a teenager. Her expressive features were still the same, but bigger. Her hair had darkened, the purple was now stronger, her eyes varied with her mood, Maleficent was still training her in this. Her pale skin was a reflection of the years at home and of an environment that never knew the sun, on her lips only a lip moisturizer and the smile now appeared in rare moments. In general, she was the same.
