Hello! Short chapter again, I actually meant to do it this time, and this chapter was really fun for me to write. If anyone is wondering of the timeline, we are currently at the point in the movie during the Night Falls scene. I am straying quite a bit from the movie, but I feel like I'm not making it too bad. At least I hope. I am aware of how chaotic this is quickly becoming, I love pure chaos, and I assure you that Heidi will wake up but not, for a few more chapters at least. Thank you for all the continued support. I really appreciate it!

I don't own Descendants; I only own Heidi and any other OCs mentioned.

…...

Hades was behaving for once. No poker with Chernabog, no threats to kill people, hell, he wasn't even scaring the kids! He was doing nothing.

The god looked aimlessly around his cave and tilted his head. It's quiet...too quiet… His eyebrow twitched as a scowl settled onto his face. "I HATE IT!" He roared, picking up a random object and throwing it across the room.

He glared at the offending object and folded his arms in a huff. "Damn kids, leaving me here all alone. They probably did it on purpose." He grumbled, shaking his head in anger.

Before he could get even more upset, the sound of someone laughing caught him off guard. Hades looked up at the ceiling, knowingly and narrowed his eyes. "Hermes, get your ass down here."

The floating god descended and waved at him. "Empty nest isn't as nice as you imagined?"

Hades flipped him the bird and scoffed. "What the hell do you need? I'm not in the mood for one of your chats."

Hermes chuckled, seemingly not bothered by the other god's aggression. "I'm not here to talk; I'm here to bail you out."

At those three last words, the anger left the blue-haired god as surprise replaced it. "...Are you serious right now?"

Hermes nodded and smirked. "Yep. I decided that we could use your help."

Hades raised an eyebrow and looked at him, trying to determine if the floating god was telling the truth. "Why would you need my help? I gave my ember to Mal, I don't know what problem you have Hermes, but she should be able to fix it."

Hermes shook his head and looked at the god with a frown. "Let me sum this up for you. There is an angry, jealous princess who has Maleficent's Scepter and Heidi's Ember...and she just combined them. Not to mention, most of Auradon is either on fire, asleep, or turned to statues. Most of the royals, heroes, and sidekicks are also stone, and if it weren't for Apollo, she would have hit Olympus next. There's also the problem that Heidi isn't awake yet, even after Apollo healed her." Hermes' expression turned serious. "The destruction that could result from this could be like nothing we have ever seen, and many will be lost in the fire if we do not stop her and get that ember."

By the time Hermes was done, Hades was eerily quiet. The blue-haired god's expression matched Hermes' in its seriousness, and the floating god had to admit that such a look on Hades was nothing short of terrifying. Hades never looked this serious.

Hades glanced up at Hermes before he stood up. "Well, let's go."

Hermes nodded and quickly placed a hand on Hades' shoulder before the two disappeared in a column of smoke.

Back with Heidi, she landed back at the fairy cottage and smiled when she saw Audrey in the house. Flying through the walls, the goddess raised an eyebrow at what the princess was doing.

Audrey was smirking as she watched something play out in the crystal on the Scepter. "You like a prince, Mal? How about a knight in shining armor?" Pink and blue magic sparked from her fingertips while her eyes glowed pink. "Or knights?"

From what Heidi could see, a bunch of knights that were once mere decorations suddenly came to life and pointed their swords at the group of teenagers.

The goddess cocked her head to the side and folded her arms. "Huh, so she animated a bunch of knights to fight…" Her eyes flickered down to Audrey's hands, and she pursed her lips. I should ask someone if there will be any side effects from her using my ember. I doubt that Scepter would do anything; Fae magic isn't powerful enough to permanently change genetics...My ember, though, might just do something.

If Hermes had been telling the truth when he said her ember was more powerful than her father's, then, well, there is a big problem. It could give her magic, make her immortal, kill her in a week, destroy her mind, or even permanently change her appearance! Gah, I wish I could just grab that thing right now and bring this chaos to an end. Heidi thought, tugging on a strand of her hair in agitation.

Before she could continue to pull out her hair, she felt a familiar magical signature suddenly appear near the Pavillion where the bridge used to be. If it had been Mal's, she would have just blatantly ignored it, but this felt like...her father's signature.

Heidi closed her eyes and checked it to make sure before letting out a quiet gasp. "It is him...How did he…?" She stopped as she felt the signature of Hermes soon appear next to her father's. Oh, you did not just do what I think you just did. A scowl formed on her face, and she glanced at Audrey before flying out the window.

….

Hades squinted as the sun practically blinded him. "Ugh, I forgot how much I hated that thing." He said flippantly, quickly searching his pockets for a pair of shades. Putting them on, he looked back at Hermes. "Now what? You want me to go and steal Heidi's ember back from that psychotic princess you mentioned?"

Hermes landed next to him as his golden helmet disappeared. "Yep, and if you could also get that Scepter, you'd be doing me a solid." The god said with a smile.

Hades raised an eyebrow before beginning to walk off. "I'll get her ember." He grumbled, not even bothering to say anything about the Scepter.

The blue-haired god was about to teleport away when he saw his ghost-like daughter land in front of him. Her eyes were narrowed, and Hades could tell she was not happy. Big time. "Heidi, good to see you are still...not dead," Hades said slowly, looking her over before scratching the side of his head.

"I see someone brought you off the Isle. Was it Hermes?" Her voice was dangerously calm, and her frown was tight as she folded her arms.

Hades blinked before nodding at pointing at the floating god. "Yeah, he let me off so I could get your ember back."

Heidi's eyes flickered over to meet Hermes' blue ones, and the god chuckled nervously. "Well, you see-"

"I see that you ignored me when I told you to leave my father on the Isle. Hermes, do you have any idea how much trouble you'll be in once Zeus notices him?" She flew over to him and stared him down. "All we had to do was wait for me to wake up, and I could get it back."

Hermes looked at Hades for assistance and received a mouthed 'hell no' from the blue-haired man, prompting the blonde god to carefully look back at the upset goddess. "I was worried that, well...You might not wake up in time. If we don't get that ember away from her now, she might cause untold destruction in her quest for revenge."

Heidi's face softened a bit when she heard that, and she sighed. "Hermes...Audrey wouldn't give that ember up for anything. The only person she'd give it to is me, and I'm still asleep. There is nothing we can do."

As she said this, Hades smirked as an idea popped into his head. "I think I may have an idea." He said, a mischievous look entering his eyes when the two turned their attention to him. "What if I simply...borrow Heidi's appearance and talk down the princess into giving me the ember? That way, she'd only have the Scepter to use."

Heidi blinked in surprise while Hermes grinned. "That's actually an excellent idea, Hades." The god said before floating into the air.

Heidi, on the other hand, gained an appalled look. "W-What? No, you are not going to be running around looking like me!" She protested, flying over and looking him in the eye. "That is beyond weird!"

"Buuuut it would work. Besides, we act the same." Hades said, amused at how flustered his daughter was getting.

"No, we don't!" Heidi said before quickly looking at Hermes. "Hermes, back me up here!"

Hermes rubbed his chin and tilted his head. "Now that I think about it...You two do the same stuff, have the same mannerisms, and speak similarly." He looked between the two before smirking at Hades. "I think Hades' plan is the best right now and the one that will result in the least destruction!"

Heidi gaped while Hades laughed at his victory. "See? If Hermes thinks it's a good plan, then it must be pretty damn good."

Heidi scowled and shook her head. "This is never going to work."

Hades looked offended when he heard that, folding his arms and shooting her a glare. "Hey, have some faith in your dear old dad!" He cocked his head to the side before lifting his hand and snapping his fingers. The god was covered in a blue light before he stepped out...looking exactly like Heidi.

"Oh my gods...That is creepy." Heidi muttered in shock.

Hermes chuckled at the sight. "You look just like her, perfect!"

Hades looked at himself, (herself?) and smirked. "Heyyy, I'm not as rusty as I thought! You owe me an apology, missy!" He exclaimed, pointing at the ghost-like woman.

"I don't even want to look at you." Heidi averted her eyes and turned away. "If you make this worse I'm no longer supplying you and your gambling addiction."

Hades shrugged. "You kidding? If I fix all of this, which I will, I won't have a gambling addiction. I'll be on my way to kick Zeus's ass in no time!"

The goddess let out a groan and floated over to Hermes. "Make sure he doesn't crash and burn. I'm going to meet up with the other VKs."

Hermes gave her a thumbs up before flying over to Hades. The two gods shared a smirk and both teleported away, leaving Heidi on her own.

The woman let out a sigh and shook her head. "I can't believe I'm letting those two do this." She looked up at the sky. "I'm already regretting it."
