A Descendants Curse

Chapter Five

When Carlos was done doing his chores he went to his room. He was looking at his old trinkets and toys (that he made when he was little). He saw a red curly cord and was curious as to what it was. So he pulled it, but it was stuck. Since it was kind of out of his reach he pulled harder but it was still stuck.
The next time he pulled he pulled with over half his strength and he was able to pull the cord down along with a box full of stuff. Oops. Some of the things in the box was a couple of marbles. He looked at the marbles roll away when he noticed one marble in particular was restricted to roll away like the others. It was a light blue almost white marble. Carlos picked up the marble and realized that it was a homemade ring he had made for his mother when he was little.
When he tried giving the ring to Cruella she snarled at it, threw it in the trash and yelled at him. She told him that he didn't love her because he had made her a ring rather than buying her a real diamond ring. Was that why she wanted him to but her a ring today? Was she still mad at him for that? He would ask but he doesn't want to risk his mother's new patience.
Wait! This would be a great ring for Jane. He would have to fix it up of course, with a little bit of Mals or Fairy Godmothers magic either one would be fine. 

Once Mal and Maleficent were drenched in water thanks to Ben and Hades they all decided to end the picnic. Mal wrapped herself in Bens blue shirt as she grabbed the picnic basket and headed up the dirt trial.
"Great picnic, huh?!" Ben asked.
Mal ignored him which made him feel bad. Hades patted Bens back, scaring him.
"Don't worry king, she'll come around, I remember that about her when she was little." Hades said.
Maleficent frowns.
"You were never there." Maleficent said.
Hades looks at Maleficent.
"No I know, but I have my ways." Hades said before turning back to Ben.
Hades smiles at Ben and begins to follow Mal with some of the picnic accessories in his hands. When Mal was near the end of the trail a cold, harsh breeze brushed against her and the trees. Her hair began to glow and it changed from being all purple to being an ombré effect. The top part of her hair being a dark purple and the bottom half of her long hair being a electric blue, almost like Evie's. Mal had chills.
"You okay, Mal?" Ben asked, coming from behind her.
Mal looked at Ben, a little frightened. She took a moment to relax.
"Uh, yeah . . . I think my powers are growing." Mal said.
"You sure?" Ben asked, looking Mal in the eyes with concern.
"Yes, I'm fine." Mal reassures Ben.
"Darling, when did you have time to do a hair change?!" Maleficent asked.
Mal looked down at her hair. Woah! How did this happen? Mal was lost for words.
"A-u-um . . . I-I don't know." Mal replied.
Mals eyes began to glow and her hair caught on fire (like her fathers).
"Mal, I don't think that you're okay." Ben said.
Mal just looks at Ben. She then looks at her parents. She was confused.
"What's happening to me?" Mal asked.
Maleficent and Hades shrug almost at the same time. Mal turns at Ben.
"I need to go talk to Uma." Mal said.
Mal takes a few steps away from Ben and her parents. Her eyes glowed a neon green and she turned into a Dragon. She then flew to the shore.

Uma was sitting on the bridge that connected the Isle and Auradon with Gil and Harry. They were all eating sandwiches. Uma was looking at her dangling feet when something blocked the warm sunny rays from baking her skin.
"Hey look it's Mal!" Gil said, his mouth full of tuna sandwich.
Mal landed next to Gil and turned into a human. Uma stood up and walked towards Mal.
"Mal!" Uma yelled. "You alright? You don't look too good."
Mal was out of breath.
"I think so, I need to talk to you." Mal said, trying to catch her breath.
"No, I need to talk to you." Uma said.
Uma and Mal day down on the bridge.
"Okay, you first." Mal said, still panting (although it was very faintly).
"Okay so earlier today I was swimming in the sea, looking for a perfect seaweed leaf and then all of a sudden I wake up in a bed of seaweed." Uma explains. "Don't know I got there or how I got knocked out."
Uma's shell began to glow.
"Ah!" Uma said, painfully as she reached for her necklace.
"What's wrong?" Mal asked.
"I don't know." Uma replies.
"You ladies alright?" Harry asked.
"We're good!" Uma replies.
"Something's off balance, and I don't know what." Mal said.
"W-why do you say that?" Uma asked.
"Because, you're magic is off and so is mine and your story about how you got knocked out underwater and not having memory." Mal said.
"Really?" Gil asked.
"Hey, did you see the water fluctuate earlier today?" Harry asked, his accent thick. "Yeah it was really strange."
Uma and Mal looked each other. Somethings not right but that don't know what. Mal groaned because what could possibly go wrong this time?

Meanwhile, Laveena, daughter of Prince Laveen and Princess Tiana was out in the bayou swimming with Louis JR., son of the one and only crocodile that helped Tiana and Laveen to Mama Odie, Louis! Ever since Laveena was little she was always in the water with Louis JR.. She was a very sweet girl and cared about a lot of people. Today they were playing their favorite game called, the stolen tiara and it was basically hide and seek but under water.
Laveena swam behind a big rock to hide from the 'hungry' crocodile. She giggles a little as she lets her body float down a little. Laveena looked ahead and saw a big wave heading her way. Her eyes widened. She began to swim away from it but when she did the wave had gotten to her. She was knocked out and when Louis JR. found her he brought the sixteen year old princess to Tiana and Laveen. This is bad . . . very bad!
