She stood still. She stood in a middle of a platform. Not able to go anywhere else or move. Everyone was surrounding her and the people that she cared about the most in front of her. All of the sudden fire appeared around the purple haired girl. There in the front was Uma and her pirate gang, laughing and smirking at her. She screamed and begged for help and cried. Mal never cried or beg but living outside the Isle softened her. Evie, Carlos and Jay stood in front of her smirking at her.

"HELP" But no one obliged

"PLEASE!" Still nothing

Mal cried and cried and screamed. Then she saw him. Her golden haired boy walked in front of the crowd.

"BEN! PLEASE HELP ME. I LOVE YOU! PLEASE" She was now sobbing.

"And why should I help you?" He said his normal warm eyes turned into a cold hard stare. "After all your nothing but the daughter of an evil villain."

She couldn't believe it. Her Ben. Her sweet and kind Ben. Turned against her. The flames started rising to her hips and the pain was to much to bear. She couldn't move anything and she didn't wanna try because the more she resisted the flames would rise.

Then, the next thing that happened caused her more pain than the flames burning on her body. Uma walked to Ben and grabbed his face and kissed him. But Ben didn't pull back, in fact he seemed to enjoy it.

The fire grew and Mal started choking on the smoke. Her sobs became worse until all she saw was blackness.

Mal gasped and sat up on her bed, she was panting while a sob was trying build up her throat. She looked around to see where her best friend was sleeping. But she remembered that they were staying at the royal castle with Ben for Spring Break, each of the villain kids were given their own room.

She lied back down and closed her eyes tightly trying to forget the horrendous dream. Maleficent's daughter tossed and turned, her body was tired but her mind was wide awake.
No matter how much she wanted to sleep she couldn't. She couldn't help it

1st came one tear
and then another
and another
and another

until she broke down into a sob. She never felt so alone not even in the Isle. All she wanted in that moment was a certain king.

Before she could question her sanity, Mal pulled away the comforter off her body, wiping the tears in her eyes. She rose up from the soft bed and lightly tiptoed to the royal quarters.

Mal stopped at his doorway and opened the door quietly. She stepped inside and just stared at the bed which had a teenage boy lying down on it. There was her boyfriend sprawled on the bed, with one arm was covering his face and his very toned chest was moving up and down. For once Ben actually looked like 16 year old boy not a king who had a whole kingdom weighing on his shoulders.

Normally, Mal would have never done anything that she just did next.
Normally, she would have never took any risks with Ben.
Normally, she would have just dealt with her problems by herself.
