How They Met: The Ball

Announcement

The VK's are 15 and their life at Dragon Hall was incredible. Ever since the Christmas party, they were top dogs. It's Wednesday and the VK's were heading to the hall for lunch.

"Hey, Jay." A girl giggled flirtatiously as the VK's passed her.

"Hi, Mal." A boy nodded his head at Mal.

"You look handsome today, Carlos." Another girl squealed.

"I love your blue hair, Evie." A boy held the door for the VK's.

"It's really amazing being top dogs." Jay laughed.

"It's all thanks to the Christmas party and Jolly To The Core." Evie sat down at the table. "It's my turn to save the table. Mal, will you bring me back some food?"

"Same as always?" Mal asked.

"Yeah." Evie watched her friends walk away. From the corner of her eye, she saw Clay and Anthony race towards her.

"Evie, I need to ask you something." Clay sat down.

"No, I want to ask her." Anthony threw Clay onto the floor.

"Boys!" Evie shouted. "What is it?"

"Who will you go to the ball with?" Clay asked.

"What ball?" Evie was confused.

"I heard from Anthony who heard from Freddie who heard from Facilier that there will be a ball this month. No one knows when, I think it's this year, but I want you to go with me." Clay smiled.

"But I want you to go with me." Anthony smiled.

"I'm sorry but if there's a ball...I want to go with Carlos. Now shoo." Evie pushed them away.

"Evie, here you go." Mal placed a tray in front of Evie.

"What did Clay and Anthony want?" Carlos sat down.

"Apparently, there's a ball this year and they wanted me to choose one of them to go with." Evie bit into her apple.

"What did you say?" Jay asked.

"No. I said no to both of them. Anthony is a friend of Uma and Clay isn't my type of guy anymore. I need a Prince in my life." Evie sighed.

"No one on the Isle is Royalty, Evie. I mean, my Mom is the Mistress of Evil but that doesn't count." Mal dipped a celery stuck into her mayo.

"I wish someone was. But I've got my eye on someone else for the ball." Evie smiled.

"Attention, students!" Facilier stood on the stage. "Me and the teachers have decided to treat you to a ball on Saturday." The students applauded. They loved the surprise. "If there's anyone who the teachers have spotted that don't deserve to go, you will be locked in your rooms until Sunday." Facilier walked away.

"Wow, talk about timing." Jay laughed.

"Now we know when it is. This Saturday." Mal high-fived Jay.

"We haven't grown much since the Christmas party so lets wear our clothes from last year. No biggie." Evie smiled.

"It's P.E. next. Aren't we playing dodgeball?" Carlos asked.

"Now Uma has joined our school with her crew, I heard she's in our class." Evie pushed her empty tray to the middle of the table.

"And if we're playing against her, it'll be fun." Mal smirked.

"It will be difficult if it was us against them, as in the whole pirate crew, Uma, Harry and Gil." Jay placed his tray on top of Evie's.

"We'll get beaten up." Carlos smashed his tray on top of Jay's.

"We won't beat them. Four against...well...more than three isn't cool." Evie rested her head in her hand.

"How many times do we have to go through this, guys? We're the VK's. We're evil, bad news, top dogs, rotten to the core. Get it together." Mal kicked them all in the shins underneath the table. She grabbed her bag behind her and stood up.

"Thanks, Mal. We needed that." Jay rubbed his shin and stood up with Carlos.

"That really hurt, Mal." Evie passed Jay his bag and she rested hers on her shoulder.

"Aren't we all rotten to the core though?" Carlos swing his onto his shoulders.

"Us especially." Mal busted Carlos. The bell rung for P.E. so they headed for the changing rooms. "Ugh, I hate the changing rooms."

"Ours is so cramped, there's no room to breathe." Jay stopped at their lockers.

"What are you doing, Jay?" Mal asked.

"I need a hair tie for my hair. I'm ready to defeat Shrimpy." Jay gave Evie and Mal a hair tie.

"Now you guys look evil." Carlos smiled as the three put their hairs up in buns.

"Lets go." Evie took a breath before she lead Mal into the female changing room.

"Are you ready, Carlos?" Jay took Carlos' wrist and lead him into the male changing room.

"Uma!?" Mal and Evie saw Uma and her crew in the changing rooms, alone. Harry and Gil were with Jay and Carlos.

"Hello, Mal." Uma tried slapping her but Mal grabbed her wrist.

"Where's everyone else?" Evie dumped her bag on the floor and she took off her jacket.

"In the sports hall. We wanted to wait for you." Desiree laughed sinisterly before jumping on Mal.

"Desiree! We'll beat her up in dodgeball." Uma pulled Desiree off Mal. Evie tossed Mal a pair of purple sneakers. Mal changed her shoes.

"We talked to Shan Yu and it's us against the whole class." Bonny opened the door and she led the Pirates to the sports hall.

"Evie! Mal! It's Carlos!" Carlos knocked on the door.

"Are you ready?" Jay shouted.

"Lets go meet the boys, Evie." Mal sighed.
