Ways to be Wicked - Descendants 2 AU

"I think you travel to search and you come back home to find yourself there." - Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

The short summary is 'What if Descendants 2 had more drama and less kid feel. What if D2 has less DCOM feel and more in-your-feels. What if I continued to make you cry over Marinette and Adrien being in love.' The long summary is something else entirely.

Marinette is not dealing well with the changes that comes with being declared a Lady of the Court and all of the watchful eyes that come with that. Her friends are prospering, enjoying their lives in the land of plenty that is the United State of Auradon while she feels like she's drowning in a lake of confusion. She feels like a bird in a gilded cage and more than anything, she wants to be free - no matter what that may take.

Adrien is drowning in his own responsibilities and always on the move. Being king has meant he's had to take on an entirely new set of problems as well as lost track of Marinette in the process assuming that everything is fine. But when Marinette finally flies the coop, he realizes just how wrong he was and embarks on a journey no Auradon king has ever dared - he's traveling to the Isle of the Lost.

They're being pushed and pulled in too many directions to count with new enemies threatening to tear them apart entirely. Will they be strong enough to weather the storm that's come to sweep them away?
