"Aiden, are you sure this is the best idea?" 15 year old Alanna asked her brother as she ran a few steps behind him, trying not to fall due to it being pitch black outside, her auburn waves bouncing up and down with the steps she took. "Mom doesn't want us near the Isle at all."
"Don't be such a baby, Alanna. We're the closest ones to the Isle in all of the USA, and I wanna see it while Mom and Dad are sleeping. Especially since rumors are going around that Ben is gonna bring four kids from the Isle to Auradon in two weeks."
"First off, I'm not a baby, I'm five minutes younger than you. Secondly, we need to go to bed. Curfew was five hours ago and I don't know about you, but I don't wanna get in trouble, again, for sneaking out for the fourth time in a row, none of which was my idea. Thirdly, if Mom and Dad don't want us this close to the Isle, it's for the best. They just wanna protect us from..." The teenage girl's voice drifted off before she spoke again in a hushed whisper. "You know, them."
"You mean Ursula and her daughter?" Aiden asked as Alanna covered his mouth, terror filling her dark brown eyes as her other hand grabbed his forehead, touching his dark brown, almost black, hair as she hissed at him.
'We're not supposed to talk about them, remember? The Sea Witch took Mom's voice for legs, manipulating her, almost marrying Dad, and turned Grandpa into a shrimp, not to mention almost killed Mom, Dad and Grandpa. I don't know anything about her daughter, but she is most likely as evil as her mom, if not worse."
Aiden tore his sister's hands off his mouth and forehead before speaking.
"Alanna, you worry too much. I'm just looking, I promise." Aiden insisted as he started climbing on the rocks to get the best view of the Isle. "I wonder who's kids Ben is bringing."
Alanna started climbing behind him to see the Isle herself, since she had been pulled out of her bed half a hour ago and came all this way. "As long as it's not The Sea Witch's daughter, I don't care."
"Whoa." Aiden spoke in both amazement and shock as he finally had a view of the Isle, a large rock formation at the top, several run down buildings, and a constant storm over it.
"Whoa is right." Alanna spoke as soon as she climbed up before they both heard barking, and turned around to see Max.
"Max, boy. Shh." Aiden insisted as he and his sister climbed down before a bright flashlight shined right on them and a very angry feminine voice yelled.
"Aiden Edward and Alanna Eleanor, WHAT are you two doing out here at 2:30 in the morning!?"
"Sorry, Mom." The two spoke as Ariel sighed, pushing them both to her car she had driven to the beach a few miles west from where they were.
"You scared your father and I to death! In the car. Your Dad is in there as well, so you better have a good excuse for what you were doing looking at the Isle."
Alanna and Aiden both got in the backseat with Max as they heard their Mom explain to their Dad, Eric, what they did.
"What are we gonna do with you two?"
"Sorry, Mom. Sorry, Dad." The twins apologized as their Mom sighed.
"We'll talk about this in the morning. You two both have school in four hours, so you need to sleep while you can."
The twins nodded as their Mom drove back to the castle, the twins immediately going straight to their room, not wanting to wake up their younger sister, Aubrey, as they climbed in the bunk bed, Alanna on top, Aiden on the bottom.
"Aiden?" Alanna asked, making Aiden roll over to look up at her. "Is it possible for The Sea Witch to come back?"
"No. Go to sleep, Alanna."
