I looked around the crowded cavern.  "Shouldn't we be planning our escape?"  I asked. Drizzella sat up a litte straighter, seemingly frightened. 

"No,  you can't do that." 

"Why?"  Jack asked, challengingly.

"Because.  They can hear everything we say."

"There's no way they can hear us.  I already checked this place for bugs."  Peter responded.

"Shut it, Disney boy.  How?"  Peter looked dissapointed.  I wondered if he had a crush on her or something.  I couldn't understand why.  Annetta and Jacklyn were much prettier.  And Annetta was nice. 

"Maleficent's staff.  She uses the magic stone on top as a sort of crystal ball."  Annetta looked depressed. 

"I guess we'll have to wing it then." 

"What?!"  We all exclaimed.

"Great idea Anetta.  I didnt want to live to thirty."  Jack said sarcastically.

"According to my calculations, that plan has a 0.00000000000000001 percent chance of working."

"Soooooo...  It'll never happen."  Jacklyn said.  Annetta nodded sadly.

"You guys are right.  We should just give up.  We can live on the rest of our days in this little cave, peacefully."  I looked at Annetta quizzically.  I hadn't known her very long, but I knew this wasn't like her.  I saw realization dawn on Peter, before his bad acting skills showed the rest of us what was going on.

"Yeeees.  So sad.  We uh at least we can go on the rides?" 

"Shut up Disney boy." Audrey said, badly holding in her laughter.  "This is no time to be optimistic.  "We need to be greiving the loss of the rest of our lives." Everyone sighed a few times, before starting to just hang out normally.  I didn't have anyone to talk to other than Pearl, so I decided to attempt to flirt with Annetta.  She was sitting by herself, wiping down her axe.

"Hey." I said, leaning on the wall next to her.

"Oh hi... Mason?- Wait, you're Matt right?"  I was a little hurt that she couldn't even remember my name, but I just laughed it off.

"Its Max."

"Oh!  I'm so sorry!"

"S'okay.  You just have to call me babe to make up for it."  Annetta laughed.

"You're kidding right?"  I forced a laugh.

"Of course I'm kidding."  I lied.  "That'd be stupid."  Apparantly,  I wasn't any good at flirting.

"Yeah definantly.  It's so barbaric how some guys would actually say that, and mean it.  It's like, where were you raised?  The 1800's  This is the twenty first century.  Women aren't  objects."  I smiled awkwardly. 

"Yeeeah..."

"You're cool though."  I grinned.  I saw Jack waving me over in the corner of my eye. I turned to look at him.

"Come here bro."  I glanced at Annetta.

"Well?  Aren't you gonna go?"  I nodded, and walked over to Jack.  Jacklyn had gone ovef to Pearl, and was messing with her, making fun of her chipped nail polish or something.

"What?"  Jack laughed. 

"You just got epic friend zoned man."

"What?"  I asked, pretending not to know what he was talking about.

"Don't play dumb.  You obviously were hitting on her, you got shot down, and she friend zoned."

"No- it- I wasn't hitting on her.  We're just friends.

"And that's the problem."

"No-"

"Do you want me to help you fix it or not?"

"Please."

"Good.  But you've gotta do something for me."
