Sister [Descendants 3]

Red 4

Red dropped down to the floor with a huff. Chloe turned on her chair to see Red curled up on the floor, surrounded by papers and books

"What are you doing?"

"Wonderland changed so much that even the laws are unfamiliar to me now," she groaned and lifted one of the books. "Like, you have a physician's approval to use enlargement mushrooms."

Chloe grimaced, "I don't know what that is but it sounds reasonable."

Red quickly sat up and pick up a piece of paper on the floor.

"I didn't expect things to change so much. I'm happy it's not under dictatorship now. But it's still...so different."

Chloe looked at her sympathetically and sat down next to her. She smiled and gently pried the paper out of Red's hand.

"Well, we are in a school filled with royalties. You can still learn about your land's law and make up plans for the future for it. It may be different, but it's good now," Chloe told her and Red slowly raised her eyes to meet Chloe's bright and encouraging smile. So Red smiled too.

"Yeah. You're right." And then she frowned again and groaned. "But that woman's assignment is going to kill me, I swear!"

"She told you to use the time machine, didn't she? Why won't you just use that?" Chloe asked.

Red scoffed and threw her hands over her head, "No one else knows about it besides you, me, Hedith and Headmistress Uma."

"What if she wants you to create a proposal on the use of time machine?"

At that, Red's eyes widened as her brain started ticking. She went quiet and had a thoughtful look on her face before she went to look around the scattered papers. Chloe would have asked what's wrong but Red raised her hand to her to keep her quiet. Her roommate crawled to a paper and grabbed it.

"There is another clock-themed item in Wonderland. It's called a Chronosphere but despite it being associated with Wonderland, it is far from being under its jurisdiction. It's under the control and care of Father Time. He's my mom's ex-boyfriend."

"Okay," Chloe nodded along.

"There wasn't a law that is passed for the Chronosphere because, yet again, it's not under Wonderland's jurisdiction. Much less Auradon's. And that is one of the things that remained the same in this timeline," Red cheered with a grin but Chloe just smiled at her in confusion.

The daughter of the Queen of Hearts rolled her eyes and huffed, "That means I could like use Chronosphere as a substitute to the time machine because it's actually something that is here."

"I think you might be a bit reaching into things unnecessarily?" Chloe tried to gently tell her and Red groaned, slumping back down to the ground.

"The time machined wouldn't even be a public knowledge. It will stay between us."

"Miss Hedith assigned that to you specifically. There may be a reason."

"I only have two days to finish this.

Chloe smiled at her encouragingly.

"You can do it."

Red just let out another groan.

And the annual pep rally just needs to happen the day before the case study was supposed to be passed and Red had barely started feeling great with her output before the faculty basically forced them to be in the field for the event. If she is bent down on her laptop for the rest of the pep rally, it is none of their business.

Well, at least Chloe seems to be enjoying it. 

"Hey, there's Miss Hedith," someone from behind her said and that made Red look up from her laptop.
