The Prank That Went To Far

An Idea

Ben POV

"And you'll text whenever you can?" Mal asked me.

"I'll try Mal."

"Just checking so I know you're alive."

"Mal, I'll only be gone for a month!"

"I know, but who knows? One of the people in one of the kingdoms might kill you. Anything can happen if you let it."

"I know I heard that reference before, I just can't place it."

"We saw the movie last night!" Mal said, exasperated.

"Oh yeah! It's from Mary Poppins!"

"Ahem!" Dad broke in. I turned and saw him tapping his watch.

"Mal, I have to go."

"Okay. Bye." Mal said, hugging me.

"You'll be here when I get back?"

"Where else an I going to go? The Isle of the Lost?"

I laughed. "Bye Mal."

"Bye! Miss you already!" I got in the car as Dad also got in.

Once we were in, Dad said "You two are so cute together."

"It's not like we try."

"I know, just when you call her, don't do that 'you hang up first' thing. It gets quite annoying."

"Okay Dad." I said chuckling. This is going to be an adventure.

Mal POV

I watched as Ben and Beast drove away. Once they were out of eyesight, I turned and saw Belle looking at me weirdly.

"What are you doing?" I asked.

"Just looking. I'm curious. Were you born with purple hair?" Belle asked me.

"No. My mother cursed me when I was little because my hair color was weak for a villain. I have no idea what it really was because she did it when I was either three or four. Why?" I responded.

"Well, I have an idea. Are you interested?"

"Depends on what the idea is."

"It involves pranking Ben."

"Well, he is the only kid at school who I haven't pranked yet. Color me intrigued."

"It starts with giving you a makeover."

"This is not going to end well." I whispered.
