  It had been 6 months since the VK's chose good over evil and once again showed us that good triumphs over evil. Evie sat staring longingly out the window as Fairy godmother taught the class about the proper way to use apples. She looked over at her Best friend and honorary sister Mal, the Daughter of Maleficent and Daughter of Evil Queen had long since reconciled after the whole birthday fiasco when they were six. But still the Young Witchlet wondered what her mother on the isle of the lost was doing, all alone stuck in an eternal exile and worst of all betrayed by her only daughter. She would be furious! Evie shook her head and smiled at Mal before returning back to her worksheet. Mal glanced at Evie questionably ever since they had defeated her mother Maleficent Evie had been acting strange, she nudged her friend and asked her what was wrong.

"What's going on E, you haven't been yourself lately" Mal asked in a serious but friendly tone.

"huh? Oh it's nothing Mal, just alot on my mind with Cotillion plans coming up" Evie said flatly as she gazed down at her Goodness 102 Book.

Mal shrugged it off and turned to Jay and Carlos "Something is wrong with Evie and we need to find out what" Jay and Carlos nodded in agreement just as Fairy Godmother's pointer slapped roughly on the desk in front of her.

"Listening is apart of this class children, and the only way to ensure you are listening is..." Fairy godmother passed each VK a sheet of paper with the words Pop Quiz on the front. The VK's groaned and did their quizzes quickly without speaking out loud, When class had ended Fairy Godmother kept Evie behind, by the look on Evie's face it was not a good conversation and it ended with her running out of the classroom, now Mal really had some snooping to do.

Evie's POV:

I was fidgeting in my seat as Mal leaned over to ask if I was okay, I don't know why but I lied to her... I lied right to my Best Friend and it felt right.. She left me alone only to whisper something to Jay and Carlos. She ended up getting us all in trouble and we were given a pop quiz all on Listening. I rolled my eyes and was finished before the others, I laid my head down on the desk and closed my eyes there my mind flashed back to when I was younger, my mother was speaking to her Mirror in that Horrible Magic Mirror voice that I hated. I walked up to her and she was gone I called out to her but was left with nothing but silence. I felt the tears running down my cheeks and then nothing as the bell rang and class was dismissed. My eyes fluttered open and Fairy Godmother asked for me to stay behind, "crap she caught me sleeping." I sighed and nodded "yes Fairy Godmother. When the class left I stood in front of Fairy Godmothers desk as she spoke In a soft tone. "Evie dear, it would appear that your mother has vanished from the Isle of the Lost" My eyes shot open to the size of quarters and my mouth hung open forming an O shape. "w..wait a..are you s..sure?" I stuttered Fairy Godmother nodded as I stood there fear creeping up inside of me sending shivers down my spine.

"do they have any idea where she is?" I asked the worry lacing my voice

"I'm afraid not, and there are also three people missing as well as your mother from the Isle" Fairy Godmother spoke matter of factly, she cleared her throat before continuing "My dear you have nothing to worry about, King Ben and his parents have been made aware and we are doing all we can to ensure your safety "Fairy godmother smiled and placed a gentle hand on mine. I merely nodded holding the tears back as I ran past Mal, Jay and Carlos who were waiting outside the classroom. I ran all the way back to the Dorms and laid in bed, my mind riddled with questions when I heard a chuckle from behind a curtain. I shot up in bed and watched in horror as my mother waltzed out from behind it, I turned around hearing others and was surprised to see Ginny Gothel, Mad Maddy and Gil The Children of Mother Gothel, Madam Mim and Gaston standing right near my bed. I quickly got up and backed away from them closing my eyes tightly "you're not really here your In my head, mother you cannot be here go Away!" I opened my eyes again but they were all still there. Their faces grinning madly I stepped back and let out a scream before a hand was placed over my mouth and my mother used her magic to put me to sleep. I looked around mentally screaming for Mal to walk in before it was too late, I made one last attempt before darkness consumed me.
