The next night, the mermunk teens left for the ball. "Oh, this is so exciting!" Jewl said. "How many people do you think will be there?" Bell

asked, combing her hair with her silver fork for the zillionth time. "Why is Bell combing her hair with a fork?" Theodore whispered to Eleanor.

"It's her dinglehopper. She saw it in The Little Mermaid." Eleanor whispered back, and they both giggled. Their limo finally pulled up to city hall.

There were millions of merpeople lined up outside of city hall, and they cheered as the saw the mermunks' limo pull up. Jewl and Bell clapped

excitedly, and Theodore and Eleanor smiled. As the four mermunk teens climbed out, they posed one by one, swimming towards the door and

waving at the audience. Reef and Coral greeted them, and everyone went inside to talk to the mermunk teens. All of the mermaids crowded

around Jewl and Theodore, and all of the mermen crowded around Bell and Eleanor. Theodore blushed, explaining to the mermaids that he was

already taken, Eleanor blushed as the mermen talked about her, Jewl loved teasing the mermaids over how much they wanted him but couldn't

have him, and Bell soaked up every second of having the mermen swarm all around her. As the ball went on, everyone had a great time talking,

and dancing and laughing. Only Jewl noticed Theodore quietly swim outside. Jewl followed him, and found him sitting on a bench by the statue

of Gil, Bubbletopia's first ever mayor. Jewl sat down on the bench next to Theodore. "Hey Theo, are you ok?" Jewl asked. Theodore sighed and

looked up at the surface of the ocean. "I don't know. This is a fun ball, and I like being fussed over like this actually, but…" Theodore trailed off

sadly. "This reminds you of Dave and Claire's wedding reception doesn't it?" Jewl asked. Theodore turned to him startled and said, "Yes, how

did you know?" Jewl smiled and said, "Because that's what it reminds me of too." Theodore looked back at the surface and said, "Look! I can

see the moon! The water must be very clear tonight, we're so far under the water, I didn't think I'd ever see it again." Jewl looked at the surface

too, and could see the full moon. "Wow, brings back a lot of memories from all of our assignments huh?" Jewl asked, and Theodore nodded.

Theodore brightened and said, "Just think, Alvin and Simon could be looking at the moon right now too! It's almost like being with them in a

way, because we are looking at the same thing at the same time. Jewl smiled and said, "That does make me feel better too. I can't believe it's

been only two weeks since we left them, it feels like two decades." Theodore lost his smile and said, "I know. I miss them so bad." Theodore

sniffled, and Jewl wrapped his arm around Theodore's shoulder. Theodore laid his head on Jewl's chest, and Jewl rubbed Theodore's head

affectionately. After a little while, Coral came outside looking for Jewl and Theodore. She stopped when she saw them sitting on the bench. "Oh

I'm sorry, am I interrupting something?" she asked. Jewl looked over at her and said, "no, we were just taking a break. It has been exactly two

weeks since we left our brothers, and we have never been away from them this long before. It hurts to know we have to go even longer too."

Coral gave them a sympathetic look, then said, "Well, I was just coming out here to let you know that your mermunk friends are going to be

singing the next song for us, I didn't know if you wanted to go dance to their song." Jewl looked down at Theodore, who nodded, and he said,

"We'll be right in." Coral nodded, and walked back inside. "Hey Theo, want to dance with me to this one? We can use the forgetting spell on the

others afterword." Theodore grinned and nodded, and he and Jewl kissed. When theyh pulled away, Jewl said, "Shall we?" Theodore smiled,

linked arms with Jewl, and said, "We shall." They walked inside, just as Bell and Eleanor were pulling out their mics. "Can you guys believe they

have access to our CDs all the way down here?" Bell said, excited of her fame. Eleanor smiled, and puit in the girls' Katy Perry cover CD. The

music started up, and Theodore and Jewl started to dance as Bell and Eleanor started to sing and dance.

Brittany started singing solo. "You think I'm pretty Without any makeup on, You think I'm funny, When I tell the punchline wrong, I know you

get me, So I let my walls come down down, Before you met me, I was alright but things, Were kinda heavy, You brought me to life, Now every

February, You'll be my Valentine, Valentine, Let's go all the way tonight, No regrets just love, We can dance until we die, You and I will be young

forever," Bell and Eleanor started singing together. "You make me, feel Like I'm livin' a, Teenage dream, The way you turn me on, I can't sleep,

Let's run away and, Don't ever look back, Don't ever look back, My heart stops, When you look at me, Just one touch, Now baby I believe, This

is real, So take a chance and Don't ever look back, Don't ever look back," Eleanor started singing solo. " We drove to Cali, And got drunk on the

beach, Got a motel, and Built a fort out of sheets, I finally found you, My missing puzzle piece, I'm complete, Let's go all the way tonight, No

regrets just love, We can dance until we die, You and I will be young forever," Bell and Eleanor started singing together again. "You make

me ,feel Like I'm livin' a, Teenage dream, The way you turn me, on I can't sleep, Let's run away and, Don't ever look back, Don't ever look back,

My heart stops, When you look at me, Just one touch, Now baby I believe, This is real, So take a chance and, Don't ever look back, Don't ever

look back," Bell started singing solo again. "I'mma get your heart racing, In my skin tight jeans, Be your teenage dream tonight, Let you put your

hands on me, In my skin tight jeans, Be your teenage dream tonight, Yoooouuu," Bell and Eleanor started singing together again. "You make me,

feel Like I'm livin' a, Teenage dream, The way you turn me on, I can't sleep, Let's run away, and Don't ever look back, Don't ever look back, No,

My heart stops, When you look at me, Just one touch, Now baby I believe, This is real, So take a chance and, Don't ever look back, Don't ever

look back," Eleanor started singing solo again. "I'mma get your heart racing, In my skin tight jeans, Be your teenage dream tonight, Let you put

your hands on me, In my skin tight jeans, Be your teenage dream tonight, (Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight)"

Eleanor ended, and posed dramatically, as the audience clapped. Bell and Eleanor took a bow, and then the merpeople started to crowd around

Jewl and Theodore to ask questions about them dancing together. Before even one merperson could ask a question, Jewl and Theodore both

said, "Cerebellum Erasus!" And the merpeople started clapping for Bell and Eleanor again. Jewl, Theodore, and Eleanor sighed with relief, and

Bell was happy that the attention was redirected to her. Eleanor dragged Bell off of the stage, and Reef and Coral walked onto the stage to

make a speech. "Dearly beloved merpeople, today we are gathered at this ball to honor Bubbletopia's heroes, Jewl, Bell, Theodore, and

Eleanor!" Reef said. The merpeople clapped, and the mermunks waved. "Now we have a very special, magical treat for our heroes, that I think

will change their lives for the better. Kids, can you please come up her on stage with us?" Coral asked. The mermunks looked bewildered, but

swam up onto the stage. The audience clapped again, and Reef said, "It took all of our magic, but we were able to make this for you guys. Just

look at the screen behind us." The mermunks turned around, as a large screen appeared on the wall. The screen flickered on, and the

mermunks heard a familiar voice say "Hey, is this thing on?" The mermunk teens' eyes went wide. "SELENA?" The mermunks yelled. "Heyy

guys! We're SO excited that we could do this! And look who's here with me!" Selena said excitedly. Alvin, Simon, Brittany, and Jeanette popped

up in front of the screen. "OH MY GOSH!" All eight munk teens yelled excitedly. "Jinx! Double Jinx! Triple Jinx! Quadruple Jinx! Infinity Jinx!" The

munk teens all said. "GUYS!" Selena, Reef and Coral all yelled. "What?" The munk teens asked. "We just wanted to tell you that it took all of

the magic in Bubbletopia, but they were just able to pull it off." Selena said. The munk teens' eyes got watery. "Thank you all, this means more

than we could ever say." Jewl said. "It's the least we could do to thank you for giving up everything and everyone you knmew and loved to save

us from extinction. But that's not all, we have bad news and good news." Reef said. "What's the bad news?" Bell asked, growing concerned.

"The bad news is, that this took up so much magic, that we won't be able to pull off any type of communication thing again for another two

hundred years, and this video is about to end." Coral said. The munk teens' faces dropped. "Selena, why don't you deliver the good news?"

Reef said, winking at her. Selena nodded and said, "We gathered up every single creature in existence with magic, and it took all of everyone's

magic, but we were just able to do it." "Do what?" Theodore asked. "We are just able to bring you guys home!" Selena said, and the munk

teens cheered, cried, clapped, hugged, and then fainted. When they came to, Selena said, "On one condition." The munk teens gave her their

full attention. "All eight of you will have to give up being wizards for life. You eight are the only ones in existence with magic now, but if you

guys quit, we can give each creature a little bit of your magic to create a type of magic regainer. What do you say?" Selena asked. "I say, we're

coming home!" The mermunk teens said in unison. " Jinx! Double Jinx! Triple Jinx! Quadruple Jinx! Infinity Jinx!" The mermunk teens all said,

and for the first time in two weeks, they could laugh again.
