“Congratulations, son,” said his father, with a firm handshake.
“We’re so thrilled,” whispered his mother, giving him a kiss on the cheek.
Ben grinned and walked off the stage, showing his pin to Mal, who helped fasten it to his lapel.
Doug was next. He waved his diploma up in the air and whistled as he walked back to his seat.
“Evie,” called Fairy Godmother.
Evie curtsied to the dignitaries before joining her friends back in the audience.
Jay was next, and he raised his fist in victory upon receiving his diploma, and ran up the walls before jogging off the stage.
“And now we present the commencement awards,” said Fairy Godmother. “For most improved student: Mal.”
Mal blushed as she received her award. “Me?”
“Who else?” said Fairy Godmother with a wink. The next award was for best athlete, which went to Jay, who did a backflip upon receiving it.
“The award for diligence goes to none other than Evie,” said Fairy Godmother. Doug cheered the loudest when Evie walked up to receive it.
The ceremony concluded, and the seniors filed out of the auditorium to a fireworks show.
“What’s next?” wondered Jay, as they stopped to admire the fiery display that lit up the sky over Castle Beast.
“Everything,” said Ben, with his arm slung around Mal. “Anything.”
“Maybe we could travel Auradon together,” said Mal.
“That could be arranged, my lady,” said Ben.
“We still need to keep an eye out for Uma,” said Mal.
“We will,” promised Ben. “We’ll keep Auradon safe, together.”
Carlos and Jane walked up to join them. “What a big day!” he said.
Evie sighed happily, hand in hand with Doug, but at Carlos’s words she straightened. “No! The big day is coming up soon!” said Evie.
“What’s bigger than graduation?” asked Jay.
“VK Day!” said Evie. “It’s going to be huge!”
“That’s right,” said Ben. “Fairy Godmother said they’re inundated with applications from the Isle of the Lost.”
Mal, Evie, Jay, and
Carlos turned to each other with gleeful smiles.
“More villains, huh?” said Mal. “Are you sure Auradon can handle them?”
“More than sure,” said Ben. “We’ve got you guys to show them the ropes!”
“We’ve got to get ready to welcome them!” said Evie.
“Don’t worry. We’ll make sure to roll out the purple carpet,” said Mal.
Then together, they made their way to the graduation reception to celebrate their hard-earned accomplishments.
