An Unlikely Unspoken Alliance


Hadley's POV

I couldn't believe my eyes Harry was actually standing in front of me...on the outside of the barrier...there was nothing between us but it still felt wrong and I knew it couldn't last...the others wouldn't let him stay and I knew that.

"Hey guys, we're just coming for a wee...visit" Harry chanted smugly and they started walking towards us only for Jay and Carlos to push them back and soon it turned into a shoving match between the boys making me roll my eyes at the childish behavior.

"Come on" I intervened to get them to stop when Harry pushed Carlos who fell back into me and knocked the ember out of my hand. "Hey!" I exclaimed reaching for it only to feel the cool metal of Harry's hook grab my wrist and flick it up making the ember fly out of my hands. "NO!" I yelled watching it move through the air falling towards the water but just before it hit a turquoise tentacle shot up and caught it followed by none other than Uma complete with a gold shell crown on top of her head.

"Drop something?" she asked.

"It can't get wet!" I exclaimed holding my hand towards her.

"Give it back before it goes out" Mal added but Uma laughed.

"UMA!?" Harry and Gil yelled out clearly pleased to see their captain.

"That's my name" she smirked waving at them before she disappeared beneath the water with the ember still in her grasp.

"NO!" Mal and I yelled before a huge tornado of water shot up splashing us.

"Hi boys" we heard behind us and we all spun seeing Uma behind us back to her normal legged self with the ember in her hands still glowing meaning it was okay.

"Welcome back" Harry laughed going over to her and I frowned since he left them behind just like I had and I hadn't gotten that welcome.

"Uma you swam off and forgot all about us" Gil spoke actually being the only logically one.

"Yeah planning her revenge no doubt" Mal spat crossing her arms across her chest glaring at the octopus.

"Its not all about you Mal" Uma retaliated. "I was looking for a hole in the barrier to let everybody out" she added and I frowned looking down at my feet. "And you know what I found boys?" she asked turning back to Harry and Gil. "It's way better out there than we thought, there's this thing that looks like a furry rock called a coconut and fish so big you could dance on their backs" she sang turning back to us. "And they've been keeping it all for themselves" I looked up to glare at Uma only to lock eyes with Harry seeing him looking at me tutting his tongue wiggling his finger at me making me frown.

"Whatever Uma, we need that to break a spell" I stated taking my eyes off Harry and held my hand out towards Uma for the ember.

"Cast by Audrey, Sleeping Beauty's daughter" Carlos further explained.

"Mm so the good guy is the bad guy?" Uma asked chuckling. "Well I might not give it back, lets see what happens" she added making me glare.

"Uma it's not the time for games, peoples lives are in danger!" Mal yelled at her but the pirates all just chuckled.

"Guarantee me that every single villain kid who wants to can get off the Isle" Uma shot back and I stepped forward to agree.

"I can't do that" Mal replied before I had a chance.

"Can't do that?" Uma shook her head then moved to the edge of the bridge and suddenly held the ember over the side meaning to drop it into the water. "Well how about now?"

"Deal, deal!" Mal shouted but Uma pretended to drop it making me even jump towards her in shock thinking she'd actually drop it.

"Uma!" Evie yelled stopping her sick game. "Her word is good" she told her and Uma stared at Mal and I as we both held our hands out for her to hand over the ember.

"I'll still keep this for the time being" Uma replied hiding the ember away in her jacket. "Because if you think I trust you to save the world on your own" she scoffed pointing at Mal and I rolled my eyes at their ongoing rivalry. "Think again" she spat then turned to Gil and Harry. "This is a job for pirates!"

"Yeah" Harry and Gil laughed and I watched Harry and Uma side-fiving.

"We can always go back to hating each other when this is all over" Jay cut in whispering towards Mal.

"Fine" Mal agreed and I sighed crossing my arms over my chest since that meant Harry would be coming with us...so much for avoiding him.

"Where are our bikes?" Jay asked turning back to Gil and Harry.

"Oh yeah, we crashed them" Gil replied and I turned to Harry with a glare especially as he mimicked sending our bikes over a cliff and them exploding at the bottom laughing is his maniacally way.

"Here's a thought, we could try to be friends" Evie cut in stepping forward. "Put our history behind us and celebrate our differences" we all turned to her since she couldn't be serious, there was too much history here to just put behind us. "Who wants gum?" I scoffed and shook my head at her.

"Let's go" Uma spat.

"No?" Evie asked ignoring the clear dismissal.

"Ah..." Mal exclaimed stopping Uma from taking the lead. "No I'm in charge" she stated. "Lets go" she quickly added and I rolled my eyes at her since that's literally just want Uma said but then that was the problem with it and she started walking with Uma right with her and the rest slowly followed but I hesitated seeing Evie pop a gum ball in her mouth but my attention was on Harry watching him mindlessly follow Uma.

"You okay?" she asked seeing me pause and I looked up.

"Yeah" I spat pushing my thoughts out of my head and started forward, she gave me a weak smile and walked beside me as we followed the rest of them.

It wasn't long before we arrived back in Auradon but it was not a happy sight as the more we walked around we found more people trapped under Audrey's sleeping spell and my mind went to PJ since I was worried about him and when I tried calling him he wasn't picking up we may not be on speaking terms right now but I still cared for him he was my friend.

"They're asleep" Evie pointed out as we were walking past Auradon Prep. "Everyone"

"I can't get Ben" Mal spoke up making me frown.

"Or Dizzy or Doug" Evie added.

"Or Jane" Carlos added as well.

"PJ's not answering either, the signals out" I spoke up looking around catching Harry looking at me with an unreadable expression but I turned away not wanting to even look at him right now.

"Is that Auradon Prep?" Celia suddenly asked and I turned seeing her pointing at the castle behind us and I smiled nodding my head.

"Yeah and when everyone wakes up your gonna love it" I replied nodding at her seeing her shocked face before she fisted the air and I laughed at her excitement.

"Everything is so..." Gil trailed off.

"Freaky" Jay said cutting him off.

"Green" Gil argued and I frowned looking around remembering back to when we first arrived, everything had surprised and shocked us at first too but by Jay's look he seemed to be forgetting that. "You have leaves on your trees" Gil continued to point out. "And what are those colored things on the bushes?" he asked making me smile a little.

"Their flowers Gil"

"Flowers are pretty" he nodded with a huge smile on his face that was almost childlike. "Cantaloupe!" he suddenly exclaimed looking down at a bowl of fruit on the table and dived towards it with Jay moving to stop him but then stopped himself as Gil choked down the grapes that were in the bowl.

"We don't have fresh fruit on the Isle remember" Uma spoke up making me frown remembering that and honestly felt bad for them.

"They're grapes" Jay said patting Gil on the shoulder.

"Grapes" Gil nodded processing the new name since we definitely didn't ever get grapes on the Isle. "I love grapes" I smiled at him before I moved away.

"I believe I deserve some compensation for my muscles, my wile and my role in this endeavor" I heard the thick Scottish accent and frowned turning in his direction seeing him pulling a kids wallet out of his shirt and was stealing the cash out of it.

"You do" Jay spat walking over to him and snatched the cash out of his hand. "Me not squashing you like a bug" Harry laughed at his words tossing the wallet onto the table as Jay returned the cash to the kids shirt pocket.

"Think I'm scared of you Jay?" Harry threatened pointing his hook at Jay's face.

"Guys!" Uma and Mal both yelled stopping the macho display and Jay begrudgingly walked off and once again my eyes met Harry's blue ones.

"Dude!" Carlos suddenly yelled out and we all turned to him seeing him running up to Dude who was perfectly fine.

"Delicious!" Dude said burping as we all walked over to him.

"Dude really?" Carlos asked him.

"What it wasn't me I swear?!" Dude exclaimed. "Okay it was me" he quickly added and I couldn't help laugh.

"Hey do you know what happened here?" Carlos asked him.

"Yup... Audrey showed up, she put everybody to sleep and then she turned some of them to..."

"Guys!' Evie called cutting Dude off. "Hannah's turned to stone" we all turned and saw one of the band geeks in Doug's marching band was a stone statue.

"Alright everybody stay on their toes" Jay spoke up as we all went over to look at it closer.

"Look since were here let's check the school" Uma spoke up and they started walking towards it.

"No" Mal argued shaking her head. "Audrey went straight for the crown so I think it's safe to assume that she's gonna go for Ben and his castle next, that's where we'll go" Mal explained.

"Says who?" Uma argued.

"Says me" Mal shot back and I sighed since we didn't have time for this.

"Says you and that's supposed to mean something to me?" Uma spat walking towards her.

"Guys" Evie groaned and they turned to her.

"To the castle" Mal spoke and Uma shook her head but followed and with her following Mal the rest of her crew seemed to follow but I saw Harry shake his head and heard his scoff before following his 'captain', I sighed and started following them as we made our way to Beast Castle not noticing I'd fallen into step with Harry until I heard his voice in my ear.

"How ye been Hothead?" I jumped nearly ten foot turning to face him but continued to walk following everyone and chose to stay quiet. "Aw are ye not talkin to meh?"

"What do you want Harry?"

"I want to talk to yer" he shrugged and when I looked over seeing him smirking.

"Well I don't want to talk to you" I spat pushing forward leaving him at the back of the group as we continued to walk making it to Beast Castle and went inside starting our search for Ben with Mal continuously calling out his name as we walked up and down the halls.

"Ha ha this way!" Dude the dog called out in the lead.

"Ben could be asleep anywhere" Mal complained.

"Or turned to stone" Celia added and Evie covered her mouth since she wasn't helping Mal's panic.

"I got his scent, very pungent cologne" Dude said sitting at the other end of the hall. "Easy to track, follow me people"

"That's great Dude" Jay replied.

"FYI I give great cuddles too" Dude added and I sniggered.

"Really?" Gil asked. "I never had a pet growing up well except the elk head in Dad's man cave but that wasn't really-"

"Hold up" Uma cut Gil off and I turned seeing her running her hand along what appeared to be claw marks in the wall. "What's this?" she asked pointing down at a painting that was cut in half from the claw marks.

"Uh...any chance this was already there?" Carlos asked looking back at Mal seeing as she was the one who spent the most time here.

"And follow me!" Dude called out disappearing down the next hallway with us following him into a room full of armor with Mal still calling out for Ben continuously which to be honest was getting on my nerves since if he wasn't answering he was clearly not here or asleep somewhere.

"Stay here okay?" Evie told Celia who stood by the door as we all walked further into the room but Ben wasn't here.

"I can feel you looking" I heard Harry say and looked over seeing Jay standing behind him watching his every move as Harry ran his finger over one of the suits sword edge.

"Good" Jay spat at him and I rolled my eyes wondering if those two would ever get along, not that it really mattered if they ever did since there wasn't a doubt in my mind that Ben wasn't just going to throw Uma, Gil and Harry back on the Isle as soon as we found him and we sorted this Audrey business out.

"So you can track, cuddle and talk" Gil spoke and I turned seeing him patting Dude and smiled at the pure wonder on his face. "Hey do you think his puppies would be able to talk too?" he asked looking back at Carlos.

"Alright man he's taken, you want a dog adopt a rescue" Carlos replied and Dude laughed.

"Talking puppies, that's crazy" Dude remarked and I laughed a little since he was literally a talking dog so how was talking puppies crazy.

"Come here" Celia said making kissing noises and Dude walked over to her.

"He seems nice" I heard Dude say making me smile before I walked over to where Mal and Evie.

"I bet you lost some sleep thinking about me on the loose?" Uma spoke up and I glared at her since was now really the time for her goading Mal.

"No dragons don't really lose sleep" Mal argued and I smirked at her comeback. "I wonder what fried octopus tastes like?"

"Okay why don't we not do this?" Evie protested jumping from the center platform.

"We're celebrating our differences" Uma argued right as I watched the suit of armor in front of us move and I frowned turning right as Harry looked at me and our eyes met with the same look meaning I hadn't just imagined it and he had seen the armor move as well.

"I believe were being challenged" Harry spoke up trying to get Uma's attention but she held her hand up at him and I glared at the action.

"Let's split up and look for Audrey" Uma spoke up looking at Mal.

"That makes absolutely no sense, unless you give me my ember she's going to spell you" Mal argued and I turned to her since if the ember was anybody's it was mine, I held our fathers powers.

"GIRLS!" Harry yelled making everyone turn their attention to him. "We have a situation here" he added once he had all our attention.

"Do you like a prince Mal?" Audrey's voice spoke from the direction of the armor as it moved and we all started backing away from it. "How about a knight in shining armor or knights?" soon all the suits were moving.

[{Italic: Mal, Evie or Hadley} {Italic Bold: Uma}{Italic Bold Underlined: All}]

"Watch your back, watch your back, Watch your back, watch your back" we all started singing backing up into the center of the room as the suits all jumped down off their pedestals. "We can counter their attacks, hit 'em till the armor cracks" we all made a break for the exit only to cut cut off by two suits blocking the exit.

"This could get a little sticky" Uma sang getting up on the center platform and pointed to the swords on the wall so Gil ran over and pulled two off for him and Uma as Jay ran over and grabbed two off the wall while I moved to the further wall since getting out was futile and I had to grab a sword but just as I reached one Harry was there pulling two out and held one of them out to me, I frowned but took it from him. "How to win this battle could be tricky but I know the best way, fall back let me lead you hold the line and we'll bring them to their knees"

"Swords in the air if your with me!" Mal sang and we all raised our swords in the air yelling out our agreement. "They got us outnumbered one to fifty, the victory is ours because I've got a strategy you take the left and the rest of you can follow me"

"Uh-uh" Uma spat grabbing her arm.

"This is my crew" Mal complained.

"This is our squad" Uma spat back at her.

"This is my turf" Mal shot back and I rolled my eyes since now really wasn't the time for this.

"Oh my gosh" I sang jumping onto the platform pulling them apart.

"Look guys we got bigger fish to fry put your differences aside cause right now were on the same side" Evie added coming up beside me pointing at the armor battalion surrounding us. "Till the night falls...everyone-"

"We'll stay together until the battle is won" we all sang before we went on the defense clashing swords with the armors swords as they attacked us. "Watch your back, watch your back, Watch your back, watch your back, we can counter their attacks, hit 'em till the armor cracks...until the night falls were aligned it doesn't mean that were on the same side" we all sang getting pushed down by the suits swords before pushing back and spinning around. "Watch your back, watch your back, Watch your back, watch your back, hit 'em hard and hit 'em fast they're too heavy to react"

"This situation's getting kinda heavy, hold your weapons tight keep 'em steady cause if we stick together we can make it out alive, I will cause a distraction you attack them from the side" Mal sang while her and Uma teamed up against two suits while we dealt with the rest, I swung my sword clashing with one before I felt a hand wrap around my wrist and pull me out of the way of a sword coming down right at me and turned seeing it had been Harry and we locked eyes before he smiled at me then moved to attack another suit of armor.

"All my soldiers stand at the ready we can cut 'em up like confetti, we'll hit 'em from the front you counter from behind don't forget the fate of Auradon's on the line" Uma sang.

"This is all out war, they got us outnumbered, the way the swords clash is the sound of the thunder" we all sang standing on the center platform regrouping all raising our swords in the air.

"And we are not going under, we will never run for cover" Mal sang.

"We battle for the victory and ride for each other"

"Until the night falls everyone...we'll stay together 'til the battle is done" Evie sang when we all jumped down and went back to clashing swords especially as more suits showed up these ones had shields.

"Watch your back, watch your back, Watch your back, watch your back..." we sang and I watched as Carlos lost his sword so I moved in stopping a downward swing the armor tried while Celia threw Carlos a shield off the wall and he used it to slide away. "Until the night falls, we're aligned, it doesn't mean that we're on the same side" we sang as I backed up my back hitting someone else and I saw Harry both of us meeting each other's eyes before fighting off more suits. "Back to back, back to back, Back to back, back to back, hit 'em hard and hit 'em fast they're too heavy to react"

We all paused when the suits started to dance and I raised an eye since what the hell...before both Mal and Uma swung their swords down hitting the suit of armor in the front and it sent a shock wave through them.

"...'Suit of armor strong and true, make this metal bust a move!'..." Mal sang out a spell jumping up onto the center platform and her eyes glowed green before she raised the sword above her head and swung her hips from side to side and the suits copied her actions.

"Ah...ah...ah" Uma said jumping up holding the sword in both hands moving it from side to side and the suits copied meaning Mal's spell was working, Carlos got up next turning to his side holding his sword out behind him and stomped his foot with the armor copying so we all started dancing with Harry grabbing my hand spinning me around and twirling me as we all jumped up on the pedestals dancing with the suits copying us.

"Until the night falls, you can trust..." Evie sang as we all continued to dance around with the suits dancing with us and I couldn't help letting out the joyful laughter since despite all of us being on different sides this was actually kind of fun working together like this.

"I'm gonna help you win this battle because I got your back, got your back, Got your back, got your back, all for one and that's a fact night fall pitch black" we finished and I found myself in Harry's arms as he dipped me right as the suits all collapsed but my focus was on Harry who was smiling down at me and I actually found myself leaning in and he was learning down before I realised where we were and I pulled out of his arms standing upright looking around fearful if anyone saw that but they were all celebrating and Harry was quickly joining him as he ran off cheering and celebrating with the whole group and I smiled a little.

"Yeah we did that, that's why I'm talking about..." Uma exclaimed and went to high five Mal before they both realized what they were doing and lowered their hands while the boys chest bumped then also realized what they'd done and the room was divided between the gangs again with Gil and Harry going over to stand by Uma and Jay, Carlos and I went over to stand behind Mal having our own celebrations as I hugged both the boys since that was awesome.

"Guys come on this was so great" Evie complained to the dividing and I sighed since she ought to just give up. "We were a team, we worked together come on" she tried to reach for Mal's hand but she shrugged her off. "Come on" she added reaching for Uma but got the same reaction. "You know what we should try?" she asked suddenly smiling. "An icebreaker" she smirked, Jay, Carlos and I all groaned as she turned towards Uma, Gil and Harry. "You say something you really like about the other person, okay I'll start" she looked over at Uma and the others before I saw her eyes settle on Harry who was doing his best to avoid eye contact which is exactly why I knew Evie was gonna pick him and I smirked a little. "Harry" she said and he let out breath. "Great accent" she said and he seemed surprised. "Now you go"

"Is she always this perky?" Uma cut in looking over at Mal.

"Oh it really wasn't your turn but thank you" Evie replied taking that as a compliment.

"Okay Evie, come here" Mal called grabbing her arm and pulled Evie towards her as I turned to Harry once again seeing his eyes on me. "I love you" I heard Mal state.

"I love you" Evie smiled back.

"I love this energy but we are very short on time, Audrey clearly knows were here and we need to get out of here ASAP" I heard Mal say when I turned away from Harry.

"Alright where does this cheerleader bunk down, even if she's not there we might find some kind of clue?" Uma cut in getting back to the situation.

"Actually she's still at the dorms" Evie replied.

"Your right because of summer school" Mal agreed.

"What summer school!?" Harry called out laughing. "Summer school!" I scoffed smiling a little avoiding everyone's eyes so they wouldn't see it. "No wonder she wants revenge" he added putting his arm around Uma's shoulder and just like that the smile fell from my lips into a frown.

"Okay I need you guys to go find Ben, we will meet back at Evie's in two hours okay" Mal spoke up looking around at all the boys.

"Sounds like were going with my plan?" Uma spoke up. "I'm just saying" I rolled my eyes at her for stating that.

"It was kind of the obvious plan" Mal argued dismissing the fact that Uma had been actually right.

"Uma said it first" Gil spoke up.

"Right so my plan" Uma smiled looking back at him.

"Whatever" Mal spat holding up her hands and walked out with us all following but outside of the castle I hesitated.

"Hey I'm gonna go with Jay and Carlos, I want to find PJ and I'll keep the boys from killing each other out there" I explained to Mal when she saw me stop and she nodded touching my shoulder with an understanding smile since PJ was missing just like Ben was before she continued on but I saw Evie seem to give me a look but I didn't say anything as I turned and headed off with all the boys with Dude leading us in the direction he was tracking Ben in into the forest.

"Ben!" Carlos and Jay called out as we walked through the woods.

"These things just grow everywhere" Gil exclaimed finding a berry bush and he picked some off eating them and I wasn't so sure he should just be eating a strange berry that you find in the woods. "Hey we should play that icebreaker?" Gil added turning to Jay and I smiled about to say that we should keep looking but before I could say anything Harry pulled me to a stop behind a tree and my eyes widened in shock.

"I love ye eyes" he spoke up and I had to bite my lip to stop myself from smiling.

"Harry...look" I sighed pushing him back a little but his hand suddenly came up and brushed against my cheek moving some hair out of my face. "We can't..." he put his finger over my mouth stopping my next words.

"Jay I like that you can bounce around and jump off things" I heard Gil say but wasn't paying that close attention as my eyes were locked on Harry's which were staring directly into my eyes and I felt like we were about to kiss again but Harry pulled away with a smirk leaving me pressed back against the tree as he walked away.

"What the..." I breathed out to myself in order to calm my racing heart since what the hell, why does he make me feel this way.

"I like how you get a kick out of a berry bush" I heard Jay say as I kicked off the trunk and walked over to them once I'd gotten a hold of my breathing.

"I guess you've probably seen everything by now, huh?" Gil asked him and my good mood turned sour as I was brought back to reality that all this was still new to them. "Furry rocks, giant fish...you're probably used to grabbing lunch off a bush"

"No...I mean no not really" Jay argued grabbing some berries himself. "I mainly just use the vending machines at practice...you know Tourney kind of eats up most of my time, so.."

"Tourney?" Harry laughed cutting him off. "That's a wee boys game"

"Hey you know what would be fun...to go rafting on a jungle river" Gil spoke and I smiled a little.

"Find a lost civilization" Jay agreed making my smiled widen.

"Oh or maybe a penguin" Gil added.

"Oh well you find those more in like icebergs but I'd love to see one of those" Jay agreed again.

"You guys a killing me" Harry exclaimed walking over to them before he plucked a berry off the bush with his hook and ate it off the end. "Hmm" I rolled my eyes walking over having enough of this male bonding display.

"Dude went this way" I spoke up pointing to the side having saw Dude run off a minute ago.

"Carlos!" we heard Dude yell out.

"Dude what do you see?!" Carlos yelled back and we all followed him again. "Ben!"

"Boy something stinks and it wasn't me this time" I laughed a little at Dude but suddenly jumped when something roared jumping out in front of us...a beast and Dude screamed and ran away.

"Gil!" Carlos exclaimed pulling Gil out of the way as the beast lunged towards him hitting a tree instead then turned back towards us before lunging at Harry but Jay quickly grabbed his arm and pulled him to duck under the beasts arm and it tripped over a fallen log before getting back to its feet roaring at us again

"Watch out!" Jay exclaimed reaching to grab my arm but Harry was quicker wrapping his hand around my wrist and pulled me out of the way this time as the beast climbed a hill and continued to roar at us.

"You need some serious nose adjustments" Harry shot towards Dude before glaring at the beast.

"Enough of this!" I exclaimed conjuring up a ball of flame in my hand ready to fire.

"Wait I'm not so sure" Carlos argued holding his hand out to stop me before realizing his hand was close to the flame and snapped it back. "Ben?" he asked looking at the beast. "Did Audrey do that?" I frowned clenching my fist diminishing the flame looking at this beast more closely.

"Huh...I thought I recognized those pants" Jay commented and my eyes widened when I saw it...the clothes, this really was Ben and he was holding his hand...paw close to his chest.

"Oh he's got a boo-boo that's why he's so cranky" Gil spoke up taking note of the thorn in Ben's paw...I couldn't help laugh since this was nuts as well and I couldn't help think of Mal's reaction to this. "You know my dad said that his dad did not handle pain well at all" Gil added and Ben growled at him.

"Gil shut up" I told him before he got us all killed.

"You're good with animals, do something?" Jay said indicating towards Carlos.

"But...okay alright" Carlos muttered before heading up the hill towards Ben cautiously. "Hey Ben...it's me Carlos alright?" Ben slashed out at him and my hand shot down instinctively reaching out in worry and fear not noticing I grabbed a hold of Harry's arm. "Whoa Ben...Ben it's Carlos alright?!" I turned to Harry when I felt his eyes on me and saw my hand gripping onto his arm so I let go with a blush muttering an apology.

"It's alrite Hothead" he whispered leaning down to my ear.

"You know me, you helped me once remember...with Dude?" Carlos continued and I looked back up seeing Ben looked to be calming down. "Right let me help you...come on let me see your hand?" Ben held out his hand. "Alright attaboy" Carlos said and I sniggered. "Uh Beast...King, so whatever" he held Ben's hand. "Oh yeah that's a big one, I'm gonna count alright...one...two...three" he pulled the splinter out and Ben roared in pain. "There it is you did it" Carlos exclaimed right as water sprayed from behind us hitting Ben and Harry covered me from the splashes before I looked up and my eyes widened seeing Jane and PJ behind us. "Hey!" Carlos exclaimed and ran to Jane who'd had sprayed Ben with the water.

"Hadley!" PJ yelled and I smiled going over and I pulled him into a hug just relived to see that he was okay.

"Are you okay?" we both spat out at the same time then laughed. "I'm okay" we spoke simultaneously again.

"I'm glad you're okay" I smiled at him before I turned back towards Ben seeing he was back to normal...well sort of I sniggered.

"Alright you good?" Jay asked leading a now sort of human Ben towards us sitting him down on a fallen tree.

"Oh that was funky..." Ben laughed.

"It was...is..." I replied barely containing my laughter as I gestured to the beard on Ben's face and the two sharp canines in his mouth.

"Oh wow" Ben stated feeling them for himself.

"You need another blast" Jane said and shot another blast of water directly into Ben's face but this time it wasn't doing anything.

"Uh...please...please stop" Ben argued closing his eyes as the water dripped down his face.

"Huh...it's enchanted lake water I guess it can only do so much" Jane replied shrugging.

"Well...well...well" I heard Harry say making me turn seeing him looking at Jane and he was stalking towards her. "Harry Hook" he smirked introducing himself. "And you my little duckling are...ravishing" I glared at him feeling the heat rise up in my hands bursting into small flames before I realised what I was doing and quickly frowned avoiding my eyes to everyone.

"Okay ravishing and taken...just in case anyone was confused" Carlos argued wrapping his arms around Jane while I quelled the fire taking calming breathes before I felt a hand on my back and turned seeing PJ looking at me so I forced a smile onto my face.

"Hold on" Ben called making me turn from PJ to look at him. "Who's side are they on?" he asked pointing at Gil and Harry.

"They escaped and joined us" Jay replied

"And Mal has the ember which is our only hope to stop Audrey, details to follow" I added leaving out the part that technically Uma had the ember but I was working on an idea to get it off her.

"Hades ember?" Ben asked turning to me. "Has Mal gone back to the Isle?" he asked and I rolled my eyes since was that really important right now.

"I said details to follow, were meeting up with Mal, Evie and Uma, let's go" Jay argued.

"Uma?" Ben asked again clearly not understanding the 'details to follow' part.

"Details to follow!" we all yelled at him before we started walking with Carlos and Ben leading.

"Hey Jay..." Harry began making me stop. "...yeah thanks, for saving me gorgeous" I smiled a little before I felt PJ's hand on my back once again making me smile at him before we started to walk together since we had Ben so we had to meet up with the others again.
