EP.28|Let The Plan Begin!

“You think this is actually gonna work?” Lizzie asked. “Oh course it will! I’ve been planning this since, well, forever! It has to work.” C.A answered. “I hope so. So what's the first part of the plan?” Lizzie asked.

“HEY!! Get down here!!” C.A yelled as the group came down to the living room. “What is it C.A?” Bruce groaned. “You guys wanna go to the arcade?” Lizzie asked. “Yeah!” They all answered.

~B~

“This arcade is humongous!” Carlos exclaimed. “Thanks, it was kinda Lori’s idea for putting the arcade.” C.A smiled. “Mal! They have miniature golf!” Evie grinned as she grabbed Mal’s hand, the two running off to the miniature golf course.

“Here are you game cards.” C.A said passing each on of them a game card. “It has a lot of tokens on it. So have fun, and try not to destroy anything.” C.A chuckled as the group explored the arcade.

“Oh! Dance Dance revolution!” Freddie eyes sparkled. “You like this game?” Maddie asked. “Yes!” Freddie answered as she swiped her card.

“Dance Dance Revolution!” The game spoke. “Choose your song!” The game said as an array of songs appeared on the screen.

“No. No. No. Meh. No. Black Pink! Yes!” Freddie pressed the start button. “On your mark...get set...go!” The game announced as the song started, Freddie placed her foot on the left and right arrow.

“Blackpink! Oh yeah, oh yeah! Blackpink! Oh yeah, oh yeah!”

Freddie moved on the dance pad as though she knew it like the back of her hand.

“Chakan eolgure geureochi mothan taedo. Ganyeorin mommae sok garyeojin volumeeun du baero. Geochimeopsi jikjin guji bojin anchi nunchi. Black hamyeon Pink urin yeppeujanghan Savage!”

Freddie began mouthing the words of the song.

“Wonhal ttaen daenoko ppaetji. Neon mwol haedo kallo mul begi. Du sonen gadeukan fat check. Gunggeumhamyeon haebwa fact check. Nun nopin kkokdaegi. Mul mannan mulgogi. Jom dokae nan Toxic. You hokae I'm Foxy.”

Freddie’s pace started picking up. “She’s really good.” Maddie observed. “Well duh, Freddie’s been dancing since she was little.” CJ informed.

“Du beon saenggakae. Heunhan namdeulcheoreom chakan cheogeun mot hanikka. Chakgakaji ma. Swipge useojuneun geon nal wihan geoya. Ajigeun jal moreugetji. Guji wonhamyeon test me. Neon bul bodeusi ppeonhae. Manmanhan geol wonhaetdamyeon.”

Freddie then noticed the small crowd that came to watch her, heck some were even recording. Damn, I didn’t know I was that good. Freddie thought to herself.

“Oh wait til’ I do what I do. Hit you with that ddu-du ddu-du du (Ah yeah, ay yeah!) Hit you with that ddu-du ddu-du du (Ah yeah, ay yeah!)”

Freddie smiled to herself, she wondered if Zeref was watching. No! Remember, you have to ignore him. Remember the plan Freddie! She reminded herself.

“Jigeum naega georeoganeun georin. BLACKPINK 4 way sageori. Dongseonambuk sabangeuro run it. Neone beokitriseuteu ssak da I bought it. Noel dangsineun grotto meolli milchineun grotto. Jemeotdaero haneun bad girl. Jokeon sileohageon nuga mwora hadeon. When the bass drop it’s another banger.”

Freddie couldn’t believe how popular she was getting. Never in her life has so many people gathered to watch her dance.

“Du beon saenggakae. Heunhan namdeulcheoreom chakan cheogeun mot hanikka. Chakgakaji ma. Swipge useojuneun geon nal wihan geoya. Ajigeun jal moreugetji. Guji wonhamyeon test me. Neon bul bodeusi ppeonhae. Manmanhan geol wonhaetdamyeon”

Freddie started getting tired, she completely forgot the world was there. It was like she was in her own little world where it was only her and the music.

“Oh wait til’ I do what I do. Hit you with that ddu-du ddu-du du (Ah yeah, ay yeah!) Hit you with that ddu-du ddu-du du (Ah yeah, ay yeah!)”

Freddie couldn’t stop dancing, she was having the most fun she’s ever had in years. Like if all her problems went away when she danced.

“What you gonna do when I Come come through with that that uh uh huh. What you gonna do when I Come come through with that that uh uh huh. Tteugeowo tteugeowo tteugeowo like fire. Tteugeowo tteugeowo tteugeowo like fire.”

“BLACKPINK! Hey! Ah yeah, ay yeah! Ah yeah, ay yeah! Tteugeowo tteugeowo tteugeowo like fire! Tteugeowo tteugeowo tteugeowo like fire!” Fire, that’s what was going through Freddie’s veins when she dance. A warm, powerful fire.

“Hit you with that ddu-du ddu-du du!”

Freddie breathed heavily once the song ended, hearing the claps of the group of spectators. “T-Thanks…” Freddie barely managed to say between the breaths.

“You were amazing Freddie!” Zeref complimented. “Yeah, thanks.” Freddie said, seeming as though she didn’t really care for the compliment while deep down she was smiling her teeth off.

C.A and Lizzie sat at the bar smirking. “Everything going according to plan.” Lizzie and C.A clinked glasses.

“Goddamn golf ball!” Mal scolded as she desperately trying to get her golf ball into the hole. “Jeez Mal! This is like you 12th try already. Let’s just move on.” Evie groaned. “I will not move on till I get this damned ball in the hole!” Mal said. “Just hurry up.” Evie sighed, sitting on the bench.

“Hey Blueberry.” Jasper greeted, sitting next to Evie who was reading a magazine. “Hello? Blueberry?” Jasper asked. “Hello? Blueberry are you deaf?” Jasper asked as Evie kept flipping thru the fashion magazine.

“Blueberry? Are you listening?” Jasper asked, a little annoyed. “Ooh, a diamond embroidered dress.” Evie observed as she continued not paying attention to Jasper.

“Are you mad at me for almost drowning Poison Apple?” Jasper asked as Poison Apple glared at him. What’s wrong with her? Jasper thought. “Mal! Are you almost done!” Evie called out as Mal finally got the ball in.

“Yes! Ha! I defeated you hole #2!” Mal cheered. “Mal, you to a hole. You know that right?” Evie chuckled as they both moved on to the next hole. “Hey, has Mal been ignoring you?” Jasper asked Ben. “Yeah, a little, I’m guessing she’s tried.” Ben guessed.

“Lori! Look, they have Go Karts!” CJ pointed to the Go Kart sign as they ran to the Go Kart track. “Lori! Hey!” Milo called out. “Joy, Milo’s here.” Bruce muttered. “You really don't like him, do you?” Carlos asked, even though the answer was obvious.

“No Carlos, I just love him!” Bruce answered sarcastically. “You wanna go do the Go Karts with me and CJ?” Lori asked. “We’re here to you know.” Carlos sighed. “Yeah, yeah, anyways wanna come Milo?” CJ asked. “Are we invisible?” Bruce asked as Carlos shrugged.

The 5 waited in line for the Go Karts when all of a sudden C.A and Lizzie appeared. “Hello!” They both greeted, spooking Carlos and Bruce a bit. “What the heck!” Carlos exclaimed. “Where’s CJ and Lori?” Lizzie asked. “Talking to Milo. Apparently we’re invisible.” Carlos rolled his eyes.

“Maybe it’s cleansing?” C.A guessed. “Cleansing?” Bruce asked. “Yeah, basically they're trying to find something new. But hey, I’d think of something if I were you. You don't want them to completely forget about you.” Lizzie warned.

“Only 50 more tickets till the giant panda!” Maddie cheered. “Maddie? Are you sti-” But before Alistair could say anything else, Maddie’s phone started rigging. “Maddie Hatter, how may we plan you party?” Maddie asked on the phone.

“Stupid phone calls.” Alistair muttered. After a while Maddie finally got off her phone. “Were you saying something Alistair?” Maddie asked. “Nope. Nothing at all.” Alistair sighed as Maddie stopped at a basketball game. “Cool! Shoots and Hoops!” Maddie smiled as she swipe her card.

“Can you make the Hoop?” The game challenged as Maddie smirked, grabbing on of the basketballs. Maddie began making almost every shot! “Damn Maddie, you really good.” Alistair complimented.

“Yeah, thanks.” Maddie thanked making it sound like she didn’t really care. Once the game finished Maddie finally got the 50 tickets she need to finally get that panda.

“I’m gonna cash in for the panda.” Maddie smiled as she skipped to the prize booth. “One panda please.” Maddie grinned. “I think this panda happy it’s gonna go home with such a pretty girl.” The guy behind the counter chuckled.

“I bet you say that to all the girls.” Maddie chuckled. “No.” He said as he spotted a girl carrying the panda. “Hey! That panda doesn't wanna go home with you!” He called out as the girl started crying. “Oh no. I was just kidding.” He said making Maddie laughed. “Man, you’re mean.” Maddie added.

“How was I supposed to know she was like 5.” He said. “Well, the Dora the Explorer shoes should’ve gave it away.” Maddie answered. “I’m guessing my the hat and the teacup bracelet, you Hatter’s kid?” He asked. “Yeah, that’s dad.” Maddie answered.

“I’m Maddie Hatter.” Maddie introduced. “Derek Charming.” Derek introduced. Dexter has light skin, brown hair with a cowlick and deep blue eyes.

He wears a small, headband-like, gold crown and glasses. He wore princely royal jackets that show sign of royalty in royal blue, and wear scarfs/scarves. He wear shades of gold, a color of royalty

“Oh, your one of the charming kids huh?” Maddie asked. “Yep, I’m the middle child.” Derek sighed. “Wait, aren’t you the one who’s a rebel right?” Maddie asked as Derek nodded.

“I didn’t wanna be a hero or a villain so I decided to be a rebel instead.” Derek answered. “From one rebel to another, it’s really fun to be one.” Maddie chuckled as she pulled up a chair.

“You know, I thought you would be a lot like your brother Davin Charming. All stuck up and full of yourself.” Maddie said.

“I’m nothing like that. Sometimes I think I was brought to the wrong family, I mean my sister is a swordswoman and Davin’s a woman trapped in a man's body. Me, I’m just geeky Derek.”

“Well, if it’s any consolation. You’re a cute geek.” Maddie smiled, pushing up Derek’s glasses. “Eh-hem. You almost done Maddie?” Alistair asked, Maddie wasn’t paying attention though. The two continued talking for what seemed like hours of Alistair. “Hey why are you so sad big bro?” C.A asked.

“Stupid Derek Charming.” Alistair muttered. “Well, him and Maddie do have a lot in common. They both are Rebels.” C.A stated. “So am I.” Alistair said.

“Yes, but Derek didn’t pretend to be Maddie’s boyfriend to one up Carlos.” C.A reminded him. “I guess you're right. Maddie probably still kinda mad at me.” Alistair guessed.

“Well, try making her not mad at you. I mean you don't want Maddie to be with a Charming do you?” C.A asked. “Oh course not.” Alistair answered.

“But what do I do?” Alistair asked. “Hey, I’m not the one who likes Maddie. That’s you. You have to figure this out for yourself.” C.A answered as she began walking away. “Good luck.” C.A winked.

“Earl Gray? Is Maddie still mad at me?” Alistair asked as Earl Gray shrugged.

“Operetta wait up!” Hunter called out as he ran after Operetta. “What is it?” Operetta asked in a annoyed tone. “You keep running away from me.” Hunter said as Operetta sighed. “Is that all? You want me to put a leash on you or something?” Operetta asked.

“No...why are you acting like this?” Hunter asked. “I’m gonna go play some games. Come with me if you want, I really don't care.” Operetta sighed as the two walked around the arcade.

Sorry I’m being so rude… Operetta thought. “You wanna play some skee ball?” Operetta asked as Hunter nodded, Operetta passed him one of the balls.

“Try getting the 100 slot.” Operetta added as she threw the ball, bouncing off the great and into the ball pit. “Here.” Hunter placed his hand on top of hers, guiding her arm.

Operetta saw C.A from the corner of her eye fangirling. “I think I can do it myself.” Operetta said as she threw the ball, making it into the 75 slot. What’s up with her? Hunter asked himself.

“I told you I could do it myself.” Operetta reminded him as she took the tickets. “Are you feeling okay?” Hunter asked, feeling her forehead. “Yeah, I’m fine Hunter. God, I’m not a baby you need to take care of.” Operetta scolded.

“I’m just worried for you. You’ve been acting different.” Hunter sighed. “I’ll be fine. I’m not a lost puppy in the rain needing a home, I can take care of myself.” Operetta scoffed.

I’m so sorry...I really don't like doing this to you… Operetta thought. “Look, I haven’t slept in days. I’ve been kinda cranky.” Operetta sighed. “Let’s just keep playing some games.” Operetta said as they continued playing skee ball.
