Chapter 14: NH&NTHs

4 weeks had passed since you were brought down with that nasty cold. A month since the villains moved in. February gave way into March and things were looking up. Rehearsals for the show were going well, only 3 more weeks till opening night. School was working out in your favor and thanks to Claud and gothel, your grades had improved immensely. Mad has helped you make a full recovery from that strang illness. Gaston has been helping train you to defend yourself against spencer, who was thankfully leaving you alone for the most part. Best of all you had something special happen.

Just last week you had received an email that your application for National Honors and Technical Honor society had been accepted. Tomorrow was your induction ceremony. There was just one problem, you had received 2 tickets and you had no idea who to bring.

As of right now you were sitting on the bus, since you needed space to think. You had to disided tonight who you were gonna take. But there's so many of them, how were you gonna choose? Your thoughts leave as you hear a ping on your phone from Emma.

Emma: What do you think? Blue or yellow.

She sent two photos, one a long blue dress, the other a yellow dress that fell just below her knees.

You: yellow looks cuter.

Emma: yellow it is.

You: Hey Emma, any ideas on who I should bring?

Emma: They gave you tickets?

You: ya I was a bit surprised as well, but am kind of glad they did. Only problem is, there are like 30 of them and only two tickets.

Emma: Well you live with them, I can't really say I take them anywhere.

You: they're not that bad, just last week cruella and I went on a driving lesson. She even helped me sign up for my road test.

Emma: Maybe her then, she's not so bad. Just don't let her go near Vet tech, although she might be doing us a favor if you do. 😂

You laugh, tv and Vet kids never got along. But thankfully they where no ware near your shop.

You: maybe, I'm still thinking.

You then look out the window to realize your stop was coming up.

You: I'm at my stop, I'll see you tomorrow.

Emma: See ya!

You grab your backpack and sand as the bus stops. You then hop off and begin your 15 minute walk home. You tried to go through every sicario in your head of what could happen if you brought certain people. No portion looked the best. Maybe if you talked to one of the sidekicks they could help. It wasn't long before you climbed the small hill up to the front door.

"I'm home." You say coming through the front door.

"Your home early." Hades said from the living room.

"Took the bus, I need to-think about some stuff."

"Everything ok?" He asked, looking over from the chair.

"Ya, I just.." you sigh "is iago around?"

"Probably upstairs in jafar room, why?"

"I just need to talk to him." You then plop your bag down and head upstairs to Jafars room. Once there you knock light and wait for it to open.

"Yes?" Jafar asked, being the one who answered.

"Is iago in here?" You ask.

Jafar rooled his eyes as he turned his head into the room.

"It's for you." He then walked away as Iago flew over to the door.

"What is it kid?" He asked, not really pleased.

"I need to ask you something. Can we talkin my room?"

"Sure." He landed on your right shoulder.

You give a quick smile as if to say thanks before heading off to your room. Once there you close the door and lock it befor turning to him.

"There's something I've been keeping from everyone for a while now."

"Keeping secrets. Now you're starting to become a vanillin." He laughed and you brushed him off your shoulder.

"Shut up, anyway I got into two really big societies. Only problem is they gave me two tickets and I don't know who to bring."

"First, congrats kid" he flew over landing on the small desk "second, go alone, you don't need any of these guys."

"You don't even want to go?" You ask.

"Well I do, but I'm a parrot kid. No way am I gonna be a human for some measly ceremony." He spoke, crossing his wings. "No offense."

"none taken." You then sigh slouching onto your bed "it's just, you're all like family now. I wouldn't have gotten in if it were to the extra boots of moral and self esteem you all have given. But I don't want to upset people, ya know?"

"We're villains, kid, full of greed. You're bound to upset one of them. But I'm sure you'll pick the right people."  He then looked around and spotted a small box on your desk labeled L.R.C. "How's about a game of Left Right Center to get your mind off this."

You thought for a moment and nodded, "that sounds great." You get up and sit in the chair in front of the desk "Only if you're ready to lose."

"You're on!" He said sliding the box over which you caught in your hand.

(2 hours and several games later.)

"Ugh that's your fifth win in a row." You complain playfully, giveing iago the last token.

"What can I say, I'm just good at getting what I want." Iago spoke.

Then, a knock at the door interrupted you both.

"Come in." You said.

The door opened revealing Jasper ''dinners ready." He then slammed the door shut.

"What's up with him?" You ask, turning to iago.

"Eh, cruella probably making them help her with her stupid fashion company." He then flew over to the door. He tried to wrap his beak around the rather large door knock.

You giggled as he tried to turn the knob but it wasn't working. You then got up and turned the knob for him. You both then raced downstairs to the dinner table. You sat in the same spot you did every night, between Maleficent and hades. You looked at the dish in front of you, it looked like steak and mashed potatoes, yum!

The meal was mostly done in silence, which gave you time to think. You thought about what iago said, it was hard to pick two people and who knows how the others would react. Would your house end up in total chaos or even ruins? Would they still over to help you? Would they even still accept you as one of them?
Though races in your head, if it didn't stop soon you were going to head to another anxiety attack. That's when an idea popped into your head, what if you didn't have to make the decision? What if they were the ones too decided, then no one would be mad at you.
Taking your last bite, you stand up and speak. "Can I have everyone's attenchun." Everyone looks up at you with surprise and confusion. It wasn't like you to talk to everyone at once, unless it was in the makeship lecture hall, but that was weeks ago.

"There's something I need to tell you all. A week before you all arrived I applied for National honors and Technical honors society. Two weeks ago I received a message that I was accepted into both society's."

"Well that's great."

"That our super star!"

Other comments made their way around the room.

You smiled but eventually cut them off "As I was saying. I'm accepted into both societies, and will be inducted tomorrow night."

Cruella practices spit out her drink. "Tomorrow, that's barely any time to make a dress."

"It's alright, I've got an outfit in my closet picked out."

"Who ya gonna bring, or do we all get to go." John Silver asked.

"That's the problem, I can only bring two people to accompany me." The room went silent for a moment.

"So who ya bringing?" Clayton asked.

"After careful consideration, I've decided to let you all choose. That way I'm not in the middle."

"Us?!" Concerns made their way around the room.

"I know, but I can't choose. You all have helped me so much, I just feel bad picking favorites."

"Kid none of us are gonna be mad at you for picking two random villains, if that's what you think." Hades said, placing a hand on your shoulder.

"You sure, cause I'm sure at least 3 people would complain if I didn't pick them, and I wouldn't." You cross your arms and let out a small yawn. It wasn't super late but you had been up early the previous night studying for an exam. Maybe it's time you turn in for the night. "I'm going to bed, you all can figure out who's going." You pushed your chair back, and without another word head off to bed.

(About 24 hours later)

Tonight was the night, the night where you would be inducted into NHS and NTHS. Cruella had just dropped you off at the back entrance to the school. You had an old black jumper on with a white trim around the waist. Upon entering the school, you head to the forum where everyone was waiting. you see April and Emma and head over to them. April was in their classic maroon hoodie and blue sweatpants while Emma was in a bright yellow dress.

"Hey guys." You say heading over to them.

"Hay." April says.

"Ready for tonight?" Emma asked.

"I guess."

"Who did you bring?" April asked.

You shrugg "It's up to them. I couldn't choose so it's gonna be a surprise."

"I'm sure everything is going to be fine." Emma added.

"I hope." You gulp a moment as a voice shouts into the forum.

"Alright everyone, time to line you all up." Called Mrs O'Hara, who was incharge of the event. She lined everyone in alphabetical order, your friend no ware near you. Once everyone was in order, and the guests were settled in the audience, they brought you into the auditorium.

Your auditorium was split into 2 sections, upper stacked seating, and floor seating split into 3 sections. It was full of parents, siblings, even some grandparents. You had no idea what your guest looked like as you told them to keep it a surprise. The group of students took up the first 3 rows of the lower sections. Up on the stage was the principal, Mr Roberta, who stood next to the large table with everyone's certificats. Once everyone was seated, Mrs O'Hara took her stand at the podium center stage.
"Hello everyone, and thank you for joining us. Tonight is a special night where we induct our students into the National Honors and Technical Honor society. To start off tonight we want to welcome our seniors to speak about the key points about both society's."

You watched as 4 seniors head to the stage, each lighting a candle then speaking about the meanings of each Honors society. Once that was finished, as they lined the students up. Everyone was called one by one, until finally you were called.

"Y/n l/n is being inducted into the National Honors and Technical Honor society." Mrs O'Hara spoke into the mic. You heard cheers from the crowd as you crossed the stage with a smile. On the other side you grabbed the two slips of paper from the principal and shook his hand. You then walked back to your seat and waited for everyone else to go by. Once the ceremony ended Mrs O'Hara led the ground in the pledge before stating the last few words.

"Oh behalf of everyone here I would like to thank you all for coming as well as a congratulation for our new nations Honors and National Technical Honors inductees. This concludes our ceremony. I would like to ask that students exit first before guests. With that said I hope you all have a good night and get home safe."

After that all the students got up and tried to push past each other, escaping for the doors to the forum. You Instead head for the exit outside and lean against the wall, waiting there for you two surprise guests to arrive.

"Great job tonight kid!" You turn as you recognize the voice as hades. Heading towards you was a man with fiery blue dyed hair and in a tux. Next to him was a female with raven back hair and a black with purple trim. You wondered how they had chosen to go, but we're glad it was the first two to show up in your life.

"Let us see the awards." The female asked, you could tell it was Maleficent's voice.
You hand them over and show her. They were just slips of paper with your name stating that you got into the society. Mal and Hades both seemed pleased with the awards.

"What I tell ya kid, you're gonna go places." He then gently slapped his hand onto your head, messing with your hair a bit.

You smile at how proud they were of you. It felt good to know your hard work actually meant something, even if it was on a measly piece of paper.

"How about we celebrate, I hear there is a nice place called chilies down the road." Maleficent said.

"Sure but I'm not paying."

"Will have cruella pick up the tab, after all her fashion business is booming." Hades spoke.

A car horn then interrupted them. You all look over to see a pilot pull up in front of you. The car window rolls down revealing a live action cruella "so, you two cause any trouble or-"

"No trouble, just a brilliant child that deserves a treat." Maleficent interrupted.

You all then climb into the car and then head off to chilies.
