Ben's Pov

What the heck was going on here? And why is he here? Ben wondered as his so called girlfriend hung him on a hook like some old coat. "Don't you dare." Mal said dangerously when he tried to wiggle of the hanger. "Why in fairy godmother's wand am I even here! Let me..." He yelled when Jay slapped a hand over his mouth. "You heard her. Now shut it." Carlos said his voice low and cold. Ben shuddered. "Now what were ya sayin' malady? Hook said in a mocking tone. Mal glared. Servers him right Ben tought until he released that the glare wasn't directed at hook but at him.

"Well Benny-boo here needs to learn a few things about the Isle." The Fariy said in a low cruel tone. "Anyone care to help him learn?" Ben froze, he didn't like were the conversion was going. "Evie?" She said as the group formed a semi circle around him and Lonnie watched from outside of it. The daughter of Snow White's sworn enemy stepped forward. Looking at him with utmost disgust she said "the Isle has a ruler just like Auradon. But on the Isle you need to earn your title. Not receive it from your parents. If your weak then you live in the shadows and sewers. If your strong then you half to climb up the food chain. Some start higher than others. That's the only thing that your parents do for you and it's not even intentional. Mal started high. We all did. But if we were weak we would end up at the bottom no matter who our parents were. Because the Isle is the living in-bodyment of survival of the fittest." The rest nodded.

 "So king of Auradon. I'll make you a deal. You let us plus five others of our choice come back to Auradon and we'll let you go. If not than the dome remote is destroyed and you half to live on the Isle and start at the bottom. Possibly below some of the new borns, because at you age having no legacy yours or your parents, not to mention that your an Auradon kid is extremely dangerous. Your lucky if you make the night with your jacket and pants." The dark fairy's daughter said "Um who are you thinking?" Ben said meekly. "That's for us to know and you to agree to." Carlos cut in "Besides, if you tell any one we can easily take you down." Jay added.

Ben gawked at them. Take him down! They were supposed to be his friends! Not threaten to kill him! "Now wait just one second. I am the king of Auradon. And I answer to no one. I could have you all arrested and shipped of to a far away kingdom. So far away you'll never be able to find your way ba..." his words were cut short by Hook's son pushing his hook against his throat. "Don't yer dare threaten her." What! Why would he care if he threatened... oh, he still must care for Mal. Ben thought. But Mal didn't care about him right? Ben was starting to get a bit desperate as he was getting less and less popular with the people around him so he threw down his last desperate card. "What about Lonnie?" He said in a panic. "We got that all sorted out. Lonnie is going back either way. She'll take the limo back and leave it there but we get to keep the remote." He was definitely was up a creek. He was not getting out of this.

"Okay. Fine it's a deal. Okay. It's a deal" Ben said they grinned. "We were thinking" Mal started "of bringing over Gil, Dizzy, Harry (Horace's son), Jace, and

Uma"
