80. The Power of Art - VKs x female reader (Descendants)

The sun hung low in the sky, casting a warm golden glow over the pristine grounds of Auradon Prep. Ben, the young prince of Auradon, walked confidently at the head of a small group of newcomers, his easy smile welcoming as he played the part of tour guide.

"Welcome to Auradon Prep," Ben announced, his voice carrying across the campus. "Here, you'll find some of the brightest minds and most talented students in the kingdom."

His audience, consisting of Mal, Evie, Jay, and Carlos—known as the Villain Kids, or VKs—looked around with a mix of curiosity and apprehension. Everything about Auradon was so different from the Isle of the Lost, where they had spent their lives.

As they followed Ben across different places, he soon led them to a mountain. "Okay, this is our last stop." Ben quickly speaks up, catching the attention of the four children.

Thinking that they needed to climb the mountain, Jay and Carlos exchanged looks, their competitive spirits already raring to go. "Race you to the top?" Jay challenged with a smirk.

Mal, noticing Evie's fascination with the surrounding scenery, nudged her friend gently. "What do you think, Evie? Think we can outclimb these boys?"

Evie's eyes sparkled with determination as she glanced at the mountain. "Absolutely," she replied with a confident grin.

Carlos grinned back at his friends, nodding eagerly. "You're on!"

But as they leaped towards the stone, Ben called out, "Wait!"

The two paused mid-step, turning back to face Ben with puzzled expressions. His sudden interruption had caught them off guard, their curiosity evident in their raised eyebrows and quizzical glances.

Ben approached them with a knowing smile, his gaze flickering between Jay, Carlos, and the rest of the group. "We're not supposed to climb the mountain," he explained to them as he motioned for them to follow him.

He veered off the main path, leading them towards a hidden alcove nestled within the mountain's rocky terrain. The VKs exchanged intrigued looks, their earlier competitive banter momentarily forgotten in the face of Ben's unexpected detour.

As they followed Ben into the hidden alcove, the VKs couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation building within them. The air was thick with mystery, and they were eager to uncover the secrets that lay hidden within the mountain's rocky embrace.

As they rounded a bend in the path, they stumbled upon a breathtaking sight—a secluded waterfall cascading down from the heights above, its crystal-clear waters sparkling in the golden sunlight. The sound of rushing water filled the air, a soothing melody that seemed to wash away the cares of the world.

However, it was not the secluded waterfall that caught their attention...It was the mountains surrounding them with paintings long up where no human could reach without climbing. The colors were splattered around, making different images everywhere you looked.

The four stood in awe as they took in the breathtaking sight of the mountains, adorned with colorful paintings. Each stroke of paint seemed to tell a story, creating a mesmerizing tapestry that stretched as far as the eye could see.

Evie's eyes widened with wonder as she approached one of the paintings, her fingers tracing the intricate lines and vibrant hues. "It's like a gallery in the sky," she breathed, her voice filled with awe.

Mal nodded in agreement, her gaze sweeping over the panoramic view before them. "I've never seen anything like it," she murmured, her usually guarded expression softened by the beauty of the scene.

Jay and Carlos exchanged amazed glances, their competitive spirits momentarily forgotten in the face of such breathtaking artistry. "Who could have painted all this?" Jay wondered aloud, his voice tinged with awe.
