i looked around and tried to make out where i was. it was all so familiar, was i in the jungle? no i've never been in the jungle. this was a forest, it felt so new but it wasn't. why am i walking through a forest though? so far its been me just walking through the forest and there was a blue light, an orb or something. i don't really know how to describe it, but it felt weird.

soon the smell of the water was strong, i've been here before. was it? no it can't be, right? i'm not the isle again, or am i? i mean i remember princey 'rescuing' me and going back to auradon, so why was i back on the isle? was it all just a dream? did he not rescue me? did i not kiss him at the cotillion? has it all been a dream this whole time?

"val!" i looked up and saw celia running towards me, freddie's little sister. so i was back on the isle... so princey never actually rescued me. "what are you doing way out here?" she asked me as she stopped right in front of me. i don't know either celia. "celia, um... it was so strange, i was just walking in the woods and i came across this glowing orb thing, and it was talking to me. it was whispering my name, the strange thing was the voice sounded so familiar. i don't know... wait why are you out here? where's freddie?" she should not be out alone at this time of night, especially not around these parks.

"i'm looking for you! remember, we were suppose to meet up at the voodoo arcade hours ago." we were? "oh shoot." i'll just pretend like i knew that... "it's okay. don't worry about it. i'm just excited..." celia stopped talking and looked down at her hands, what's going on? "celia? are you okay? hello?" i asked her, okay she's worrying me now. "of course i'm okay!" she snapped out of it real quick which concerned me even more. "okay..."

"oh my there's so many vibes in getting from you. my friends say somethings coming, something good and something bad. but they also say not to worry about that, so let's get going. freddie and cj are waiting for us." celia grabbed my hand but before she could lead the way something weird happened. she groaned in pain and there was a shining light coming from her chest.

"celia? why are you glowing?" i reached out for the necklace around her neck, the source of the light. "is that uma's necklace? celia! why are you wearing uma's necklace?" celia shook her head, "what are you-" she looked down and gasped in pain again as the necklace just continued to glow brighter. suddenly she looked up at me and smiled.

"i wouldn't say that celia is wearing my necklace. it's more like my necklace is wearing celia." it was celia's body but umas voice.. why is she doing this? "uma please, your fight is with me. no one else, and she's a child. this is so low, even for you." celia shook her head. "oh, i can go lower, hearts." she took out celia's tarot cards from her pocket, they were her most priced possession. "oops." she said as she ripped them, though i don't know how she could rip through a whole deck at once.

"okay so, where are harry and gil? shouldn't they be showing up sometime soon? or do i actually have something to be afraid of this time, for once in my life?"  something was moving behind celia/uma, and out came harry and gill. my knuckleheads, i've missed them. "oh you should be frightened hearts. you never seem to learn your lessons, do you, hearts? you're not welcome on the isle anymore." they're kidding right? of course they're on uma's side, they're always on her side. no matter how wrong she may be, they're loyal to her. as was i, i can't say i don't trust her. our friendship meant the world to me, and it still does. until she comes back to our side of the line, i guess we're enemies.

"really? what are you gonna do about it, huh? tick tok, tick tok, tick tok. i'm waiting." gil laughed in response. "i get it, cause his dad and the whole-" "shut it." they all began walking towards me, well i can't say i'm intimidated. "you know, you're not as strong as you think you are, hearts." if you say so harry, if you say so. "uma's gonna have the last laugh. i wouldn't want to be you right now V." gil isn't as intimidating as he thinks, he's like an adorable little puppy. it's nice to see that he'll still call me v instead of hearts.

"i wouldn't want to be him ever." ouch, that really hurt uma, that really hurt. "how is this gonna be different than any other time? i've fought alongside you all this time, i know your every move. you're predictable uma, no ones winning this fight." uma's voice traveled over to harry's. "not this time, alongside me you won't be. this isn't a fight, it's a battle. hearts this is war." now her voice traveled over to gil's. "and in this war, i will be triumphant." now uma's voice had gone back to celia.  "i'll have everything, the isle, auradon, and you my prince... i'm coming for you hearts." harry pulled out his sword and gil got ready to throw hits.

"yeah? not if i come for you first." i turned around and ran off, jumping off of the deck. into the water i went. this was a bad idea as i do not know how to swim, why would i jump in? i tried to swim, if you can call it that, towards the surface but i only began to go back down. the water began to fill my lungs, i couldn't breath, obviously, and i was getting farther away from the surface. i stopped trying to go up and just let the sea take me.

**

i woke up gasping for air, my lungs weren't filled with sea water but the taste of salt was there. so it was all a dream? i was still in auradon and the others on the isle, right? i'm all sweaty, i can't breath, but at least i'm here. what the heck type of dream was that? it's fine, i'm okay. i'll just go back to sleep. it was just a dream nothing else, and plus it probably didn't mean anything.

after i had my breathing under control, i laid back down next to princey. i pulled the covers closer to me and closed my eyes hoping i fell back asleep as quickly as possible. i felt princey move closer to me, his hands went to my chest. i slowly went back to sleep and let my worry's wash away for now.

**

i was in the hall with carlos and mal, a bucket of apples in carlos' hand and a can of spray paint in mal's. i had mal's spell book? i looked around, we're in auradon. okay that's good, but what are we doing? how did i get here? i seriously need to stop falling asleep in class, i'm probably a sleep walker without realizing it.

"crashin' the party, guess they lost my invitation, friendly reminder, got my own kind of persuasion." mal was spray painting the lockers?! why would she do that? " looks like this place could use a bit of misbehavior, 'happily ever after' with a little flavor." carlos threw the apples in the floor and the students ate them up?! what in the world?

"bad to the bone with even worse intentions, we're gonna steal the show and leave 'em all defenseless." jay and i said as i waved my hand around, blue sparkles leaving my hands. also where did he come from? "a fairy tale life can be oh-so overrated, so raise your voices and let's get it activated!" evie and mal said together as they walked over to us hand in hand. the students that had eaten the apples all left and began to act like wild animals.

"long live having some fun, we take what we want. there's so many ways to be wicked. with us evil lives on the right side of wrong, there's so many ways to be wicked." we yelled as we ran through the halls of auradon prep. papers were being thrown, chairs and books hit the walls. it was riot. and i was enjoying watching auradon prep fall to its knees.

evie and i ran through the halls giving everyone we saw apples, mal and carlos were giving apples to the teachers and jay was helping the students trash the classes. "this time the dark is finally getting your attention, we're wicked by the book, and class is back in session." the students were eating the apples up one by one, all of them going to the dark side.

"here princess, this ones especially for you." i tossed audrey an apple and she but into it, her eyes sparked up and she joined the rioting kids. i looked around as i watched the vk's run around causing chaos. at first this felt so weird, but now it felt natural. it felt right. then i saw it, the statue of the beast. former king adam. our warden. it doesn't belong there, why not bring it down?

i ran over to it and took out mal's spell book, as the i flipped through the pages i felt hot. i looked up to see my hair was up in flames. the rush i felt as the magic rushed through me as i read the spell was one that excited me. "bend it, break it, bring this vicious beast down to its knees." i stepped back as the statue came crashing down. once it hit the ground, the head rolled off.

"val what are you doing?" i looked over and saw princey standing there looking at me with wide eyes full of terror. as once should after all. he was wearing his crown, isn't that a bit shallow? "val this isn't you, please end this madness!" i laughed maniacally as i walked over to him. "oh you think you know me better than i know myself? do you now?" as i walked towards him he began to back up. when he saw i didn't stop he began to sprint away. what a fool.

"come back princey! the funs just begun!" i ran after him, i want that crown! auradon is going to have a new king! is going to be under new ruling! i caught up to him in now time, but the fool ended up cornering himself. "val please, think about this. this isn't you! you're good, you're a good person." i shook my head and raised my hand up in the air. i grabbed his crown and put it on. "look, it fits." i traced hearts around his chest, right above where his heart is, and i leaned into his ear.

"the forces of evil will reign down on auradon, the weak will not survive." my hand lit up on fire and i pressed my hand into his chest. "val..." were his last words before i ripped his heart right out of his chest. i backed away and watched his body drop down to its knees and fall face forward into the ground. i placed his heart on the table and licked some of his blood off of my hand.

"off with his head!"

**

i woke up screaming, the images of the dream replaying in my head. it all felt so real, too real. "val?" i looked over and saw princey was next to me, alive but sleepy. i looked down at my hands and my breathing got heavier. my vision was shaky, but the bright red blood of princey was there. i looked back over at him and saw his lifeless body staring back at me. i let out another scream as i fell out of the bed. my eyes were watery as the image of killing princey wouldn't go away.

"val? val! val what's wrong?" soon the blood disappeared and everything went back to normal. "val, are you okay? did you have a nightmare?" i looked at princey and felt dirty for doing what i did, even if it really wasn't me. "i- did i wake you? i-i'm sorry." princey shook his head, picked me up and carried me back on to the bed.

"no it's fine, do you want to talk about it though?" he asked as he ran his hand through my hair. i can't tell him, what if he thinks i'm insane? "no, just go back to sleep..." he pulled me closer and so i buried my head in his chest. "not until you do, it's fine okay? i'm here, i'll always be here for you val." what if what i dreamed wasn't just a dream, but a glimpse into what might happen in the future?

what if i really am a threat to, not just auradon, but to princey?
