Princess Of The Underworld

01| Rotten

     Mal whipped around, the "Long Live Evil" tag finished behind her, as she tossed the spray can into the distance.

   They say I'm trouble, my purple haired best friend sang , They say I'm bad.

     They say I'm evil, Mal purposely bumped a guy as he walked past her, And that makes me glad, Mal sang before walking ahead just as our friend Jay landed on a nearby roof.

    A dirty no-good, down to the bone. The beanie clad-boy scaled down the ladder, looking at Mal over a rust railing, You're worst nightmare, can't take me home.

   So I got some mischief, in my blood. Evie let out as she strutted across a table, not minding the complaints being yelled at her, Can you blame me? I never got no love.

I made my way onto some crates, using them as stairs, They say I'm wicked, oh how they cry. I pushed a guy who was in my way off the boxes, and onto the ground, Come on fight me, I wanna see you try.

   The familiar white and black hair of Carlos popped out a window, They think I'm callous, a low life hood. He nabbed a bandanna from some guy's pocked and an apple a kid tossed in the air, I feel so useless, Misunderstood!

   Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who's the baddest of them all? Evie, Mal, and I made our way through an alley, enjoying the wary looks of on-goers. Welcome to my wicked world, wicked world.

    I'm rotten to the core, core, rotten to the core. We all sang and met up, pushing our way through a gate and running about the market, I laughed as I pushed a guy into a water basin. I'm rotten to the core, core, who could ask for more? I'm nothing like the kid next, like the kid next door. I'm rotten to the, I'm rotten to the, I'm rotten to the core!

   I grabbed two sticks from a pile and began beating them on all the barrels and tables in my way, scraping them against the wall as we ran through a tunnel.

   Call me a schemer, call me a freak, Mal pushed through people, giving them her infamous glare. How can you say that? I'm just, unique.

So I'm a hot-head, that's not so bad. I used one of Mal's spray cans to form an "H" on a white sheet, before pulling it back to reveal Smee bathing, Don't mess with me, or I'll get real mad.

Jay creeped into a warehouse, on the hunt for something to swipe for his dad's store, What me a traitor? He gasped as two people eyed him, knowing he was up to know good. Ain't got your back? Are we not friends? He picked up the kettle from the table, pouring some water into nearby cups before jumping over the table, rubbing the kettle like a lamp, What's up with that?

So I'm a misfit, so I'm a flirt, Evie walked through some shops, a love-sick guy trailing not far behind her, she quickly pushed him backwards, causing him to tumble to the floor, I broke your heart, I made you hurt?

    The past is past, forgive, forget, Carlos made his way over tables and under ledges, kicking a basket onto someone's head, The truth is, you ain't seen nothing yet!

   Mirror, mirror, on the wall, The girls and I leaned over a ledge, looking down as Carlos dragged Jay around on a swinging bar, Who's the baddest of them all? Welcome to my wicked world, wicked world.

   We all ran out into the square, pushing people and causing chaos, just the way we liked it.

   Everyone sang out as we pushed our way to the front of the group, I'm rotten to the core, core, rotten to the core. I'm rotten to the core, core, who could ask for more? I'm nothing like the kid next, like the kid next door. I'm rotten to the...I'm rotten to the...I'm rotten to the core!

    As we finished dancing, everyone laughing and talking, I pushed a lose strand of blue hair behind my ear. I looked up when I heard laughing to see Mal holding a child's lollipop, we all joined in with her as I leaned against Jay for support.

  The laughing soon turned into screams and I looked to see two large bodyguards walking towards us, Maleficent behind them.

   Mal turned around as everyone else ran off, "Hi, mom."

  "Stealing candy, Mal? I'm so disappointed." Maleficent sighed, looking at her scepter.

   "It was from a baby." Mal tried, wanting only to look evil enough in her mother's eyes.

   Maleficent smirked, "Ah! That's my nasty little girl." The sorcerer spit on it, before shoving it in her armpit and handing it to the guard, "Give it back to that dreadful creature."

   "Mom..." Mal tried to protest.

    "It's the deets, Mal, that make the difference between mean and truly evil.   When I was your age I was-"

   "Cursing entire kingdoms." Mal and her mother recited, Maleficent never seemed to stop talking about when she cursed Princess Aurora, she called it The Glory Days.

   Carlos, Evie, Jay, and I watched as Maleficent led Mal away, talking to her about something we couldn't hear. I was about to head off, and go grab a bite to eat before Maleficent turned to us.

   "Oh! I have news! You five have been chosen to go to a different school...in Auradon.

    I tried to bolt, there was no way I was going to that place, but I was grabbed by one of Maleficent's goons, and no matter how much I wiggled, their grip was too tight. When I stopped moving he dropped me to the ground.

   "What?" Mal asked her mom, "I am not going to some boarding school filled to the brim with prissy pink princesses!"

   "And perfect princes!" Evie said dreamily causing Mal and I to give her an annoyed look, "Oh, I mean, ugh!"

   I pushed myself between the two girls, crossing my arms, "Not to mention all of our mortal enemies." I scowled just at the thought of Hercules, the man who had ruined my father.

  "Yeah, I don't do uniforms." Jay said, causing me to look over my shoulder at him, "Unless it's leather. You feel me?" I rolled my eyes at his attempt at a joke.

   "I read somewhere that they allow dogs at Auradon." Carlos said, walking up beside Mal with fear in his eyes, "Mom said they're rabid pack animals who eat boys who don't behave." Jay then snuck up behind the De Vil boy and woofed in his ear, causing Carlos to scream and bump into me. I shoved him lightly back over to Jay.

   "Yeah, mom, we're not going!" Mal argued causing her mom to sigh.

  "Oh, you're thinking small, pumpkin. It's all about world domination." Maleficent then called for her bodyguards, then beckoned us to follow her.

   I looked at the others, there was no way we were actually going to Auradon. Right?
