~Poor Unfortunate Soul~

Chapter Three: Poor Unfortunate Soul

     Francis and Uma met in private and discussed the perfect plan. They were the game-makers, and their victims were the players. Then they gave Ashton and Hannah their assignment. Finally, they set it forth in motion. They weren't wasting any time to get started. "The sooner we begin, the sooner we win."

     It was the next afternoon, and they were eating lunch about to begin. When, Ben walked up to them, "Hey guys! You wanted me to meet you here?" Uma smiled, and shooed Hannah and Aston away, "Yes, we did. We wanted you to give us something." Ben nodded, "What?" Uma pulled out the seashell, "just your... poor... unfortunate soul!"

💜 MAL'S POV 💜

     I was sitting at our regular picnic table in the dining area, when Ben came up to us. He was acting really strange by the way he was walking and the facial expression he was making. It was almost as if he got hit by a car, "Hey... Ben? Ummm... What's wrong with you? You look like you fell off a train!" Carlos exclaimed. "GUARDS!" Ben shouted. After that, a whole bunch of guards I've never seen before- but seemed oddly familiar- came out of no where and grabbed us. "TAKE THEM TO THE DUNGEON!"

⚱JAY'S POV⚱

     We were thrown in a big, cemented room underneath the palace. "Why are you doing this!?" Evie cried. "Because I do not approve of villains in my kingdom!" He turned to the guards "For my next proclamation, I announce that there will be no more of these..." He pointed to us "...anymore!" And with that he turned to leave. "Ben!" Mal wept. "What about us?!" Ben smiled, "What about us?!" and he was gone.

💋 EVIE'S POV 💋

     I ran to Mal's side, she shouldn't have ever been treated like that! I thought that they were going to live happily ever after! Just like she deserved! And what did we do to get thrown in this yucky place!? More importantly, what's going on with Ben? "Did he j-just b-b-break up w-with me!?" Mal sobbed. I sadly nodded, which only made her cry harder into my shoulder.

     I patted her head, "Don't worry! The real villains will be in here! I just know of it!" Mal shook her head, "I have a feeling that somehow they're behind this!" Then there was a laugh that came from the darkness outside of our cell, Uma came out of the darkness. "Wow, Mal! For the first time your right!"

🐶 CARLOS'S POV 🐶

     Uma running her fingers through my hair was one thing, but treating us like we're... well, them! That was pure... um... evil! She stepped into the front of the cell, and leaned down, "Ben's my lil' polyp now!" She whisper-shouted. Mal looked up, shocked, "What!?" Uma stood back up, "Yeah, that's right! I took his..." she lifted a purple shell and put a sarcastic shocked look on her face, "... soul!" Then she cackled and left us alone in the cell.

🐚 UMA'S POV 🐚

     Leaving the ex-villains in their cell I mentally checked off step one. Soon, at least one of them would be wanting to meeting in private to tell me that they want to join the team again. And why wouldn't they? Being evil is so much more fun! I met back up with Francis to tell him the deed was done, "I got into their heads." I said. He looked up from his scepter, "I've been thinking..." He replied. "Now that we are back into the real world and everything is powerful again... can I use my staff my dad gave me?! Please!! I've been dying for some voo-doo!" I sighed, "Fine! Knock yourself out!" "YES!!" He jumped up and down like a little kid.

'So immature'

     And with that, he went to go do his part of the plan. I sat down, and looked around, "I'm bored!" I said in an exaggerated voice. That's when Ashton came up to me, "Ashton! What are you doing?! Shouldn't you be watching them!?" He nodded, "Yes, but one of them wants to meet with you"
Told you...

💀 FRANCIS'S POV 💀

     I headed to the meadow, where Audrey and her friends hung out. I may or may not spied on her for an hour or so... Audrey and I were going to be a thing, I really liked her. But then she found out that I was a villain and ended it right in the spot. I have no doubt in my mind that Jane was the snitch! Time for a little magic!

     I walked up to Jane when she was alone, "Why hello Jane!" She jumped, "Y-you sc-scared me!" She replied. 'Pathetic' I said to myself, but still keeping my false smile, "I was wondering if you wanted to play a card game?!" She put up a finger, "Now, I don't know if you've heard, but I apparently have magic now so... don't pull any tricks!!" I rolled my eyes, "Come on! It's one of my favorites!" She hesitated, but finally gave in.

     I sat on the opposite side of the table and shuffled the deck of cards before dealing out three cards into three piles. "This is the past..." I pointed to the first pile "this is the present..." I pointed to the second pile "and this, this is the future!" I exclaimed, pointing to the third pile. "Now... let's change it 'round some." I flipped over the first card, revealing what happened to her hair when Mal put a spell on her, "You didn't think you were beautiful..." she hung her head in shame as I revealed the second card, "Right now, you're learning about..." I shivered finishing the sentence "how, ahem, how beauty lies within and it's about the 'personality' and... and... whatever! Anyway, I don't think that's what's best for you!"

     She looked up, "What do you mean?" I took her hand, "Like you've said before... you have magic now! You can make yourself look anyway you want..." I flipped over the last card, revealing the complete opposite of her past. She started to smile, "Do you really think I can make myself look pretty?" I winced, I didn't really like talking about girly stuff, "Of course! I'll even give you the spell! You'll be as pretty as a picture!" She nodded. "So, do we have a deal?" I put my hand out, and she took it and shook it
'Oh, you poor unfortunate soul...'
