Announcement:

Chapter 13 to this Wonderful Story already? How time flies.

Anyways I hope you like the next Book Arc (which was suggested for more abilities for Morgana to have by once again, my fellow Fanfiction Author Friend, Rwbyknight), and I will post reasons as to why her genie didn't at all show in the last chapter to help her out, and others. Plus there is going to possibly be only Morgana, and two certain girls based on hints in the last chapter, to be sent for this chapter into a Book and with Yidhian only coming out when needed (truly), and shortly… I was thinking during her Hogwarts Years, adding some Anime Characters as I plan for all the Disney Movies that were from the "List to choose from" to be involved, before doing so... Or a Specific Franchise, but with Anime instead, who knows.

I also recently discovered that the movie, "Strange Magic", is now trademarked by Disney. So I may be involved in this story at some point as well (warning on that as that's a lot of popular songs lol).

Besides that, there isn't anything much to spoil or say as such except the timing of the "Mardi Gras" (I didn't know about it yet decided to keep it the way it was), and I just hope you enjoy the chapter… Especially since you be surprised as to whose the "Soulmate" for Morgana is in this Fic, and I'm not spoiling as to whom it is (since I have my own special "Reason" as to why she is in this Fic as well).

I would also like to state that the next chapter would also be a Book Arc to this Fic, but… You may have to read this to the end (no skipping!) to find out. As I have been getting PMs for it, I plan to include the "Sequel" as well after in real life (as hints).

I will, however, continue to work on this Fic alongside others, and I plan to also add new chapters (eventually) to my lower fics as well.

Now I do not own Beauty and the Beast or Harry Potter, or other Mentioned Franchises. I only own my ideas, plots, or possibly my OC's I tend to use (Yet let others; If they ask, can use them in their own stories as long as they post it, I will let them). If I did so, then there would be a new X-based Experiments for the Lilo and Stitch Franchise; up to thirty or so.

Warning: Magical Transformations, Music or Songs (Which I am going to use in this only one or two times; Do Not Own), Mentions of Body, Anime/Manga Character of sorts getting involved in a Specific Reason, Somewhat Predictable Pairing, New Gem (Not spoiling what it is), A certain "Loa" getting invested in a New Deal, Consequences of Payment (Hoping for no Rage at it), and Surprised turn of Events, and Character Death(s).

Now here is some information:

(#) = OC Characters from Submitted Users / Authors (Which they can use in their works as well) are being mentioned for the very first (1st) time.

Thoughts or "Whispering" or "Empowered Voice" or (Only in this story or certain chapters when it happens) Talking at the same time.

"Larxene or Someone Else" Mentally speaking to Morgana, or any others doing so to anyone else.

Hidden Meanings.

?: "Evening Star..." = Singing by people (Which I do not own at all; slightly modified it to fit characters though sometimes). If "~ " appears, words are slightly long in the song.

(Flashback Begins/Ends)

(Number placed here) = Number explained at the end.

So without any further ado, let's begin the next chapter of this fic.

Pairings Currently for Morgana: Cassie, Death, Mirage, Elsa, Bowsette, Sorceress, Crystal, Artemis, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?; 8 out of 13. So if you want, leave a review as to whom you want the last four to be since that would be the "Max Limit for Soulmates", or maybe PM me as well, as one of those spots has been filled (which I will not comment as to whom, but you will eventually figure it out).

Pairings currently for Ceraza: ? /6 (Same as Morgana for suggestions as I might add that energy-girl mentioned in this chapter as one, not sure)

Trinaza: 3/5 to which are Serina, Onita, Crumbelina, ?, ? (Same as Ceraza for suggestions)


A few months later (June 7th, 1988/1588):

Things have gone pretty well for Morgana and everyone.

Everyone was feeling better, the Arcaders (from what they dubbed themselves) came and went as pleased, and Chipana was being taught alongside Trinaza to control their animal instincts from not only Bowsette but Sonic and Co...

Belle was also three months along with them getting close to the wedding in a few more months.

So all in all, everyone was peachy presently as even Ralph and Co. visited from time to time.

Well, almost peachy… As the recent residents of the Castle were still getting accustomed to their situation that's somewhat the same as Demona, Elisa, and currently, Angela as she turned to stone the same day she came and was back to being herself at night (so she tended to go oddly enough, up in the balcony to do so).

The two groups were dubbed the Rainbooms which consisted of a Princess known as Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, and Sunset Shimmer along with a dog named Spike, and lastly, a girl named Gina Disco or DJ known as DJ Pon-3.

The other group consisted of three girls by the names of Adagio Dazzle, Aria Blaze, and Sonata Dusk.

The energy, however, was given the name of Serenity Eclipse due to her having a sun/moon mixed as such on her left hand as an image and just like all the others for their "Personal Mark".

Now though, Adagio alongside Sunset Shimmer as everyone else was busy, was foreseeing Morgana's music and magic lessons as her Uncle Frost (Loki), somehow couldn't send them back to their home and making them realize that somehow it was either taken or worse, and Yidhian was attending to things as well since she was also affected somehow with the same sickness and caused her to stay passed out during Morgana's entire adventure to the genie's ire when she was with her brother.

Now mention them, Sunset Shimmer was a teen girl with red-crimson and yellow-dark blond long hair that reached her shoulders and was wearing a black-slightly studded jacket with a t-shirt that showed a basic red and yellow mixed sun design on it. She was also wearing slightly torn blue jeans with a brown regular leather belt, with black combat boots that had green shoelaces. Her skin was colored as a pale-yellow, with moderate-cyan colored eyes with to her ire, black sclera as they became like this from arrival to the Castle, and a slight heart-shaped face. She also has a slender yet decent hourglass frame while having a High-C-Cup, and she had a unicorn horn in the center of her forehead along with pony ears easily replacing her human ones.

Adagio though along with her sisters, were given custom outfits by Loki himself out of Morgana's old outfits to have them have clothes while keeping to their looks, as when they were defeated (to their embarrassment), they lost all but their undergarments.

So Adagio wore a lavender set daisy street halter crop top with a cutout and low back that clearly showed most of her waist and sides, light-grey jeans with a rip on her right knee, and basic lavender sneakers with pink shoe strings. She also wore a studded light-brown vest as well with it having a silver zipper and had the same bodying frame as Sunset (for chest size and otherwise). She also has changed her hairstyle into a short ponytail while keeping the auburn-orange color with natural yellow-blonde highlights and lastly has brilliant-raspberry colored, wide/square eyes.

"Alright, now try singing once again from the top," Adagio states softly while giving her a stare a teacher would give her as her and her sisters were privately stunned at discovering (to what she guessed) the very last of what Morgana was and realized as distant racial cousins it was up to them mainly to teach what they remembered so little of as singing was part of that.

Yidhian earlier decided to take a nap and would let the young girl know if she was needed, however.

Morgana took in a deep breath and made them cringe as she tried singing naturally without the aid of her power flowing into it, and she stopped after a few minutes while glancing away in shame. "Hey, it's ok Mary. Your ability to sing naturally shouldn't have to be from your power, from experience on that," Sunset states with Adagio glancing at her while Morgana nodded and considered primarily the other girls as her friends while she felt something between both Adagio and Sunset was more than that, "Indeed. Singing without your power would only strengthen it when you do, Little One," Adagio added before noticing Xion come in with a soft gaze at Morgana while rubbing her head, "How're your lessons going?"

Seeing her Little Sister's stare, she sighed while claiming to them then, "That bad huh?" They only nodded with Sunset watching Morgana looked surprised by her choice of words, "She is slowly yet clearly coming along though as her last attempt was better than the last."

Xion nodded before thinking and told them what Belle and Adam told her, making them widen their orbs, and Morgana tilted her head as to why this was, "Belle wants you to watch Morgana for her as Adam and her head out, and since everyone is somewhat busy along with me going somewhere to check on something, I… I mean we would appreciate it."

Seeing there was no problem they told her yes as between both The Rainbooms and The Sirens, they were on neutral grounds and were slowly getting used to each other.

The Triplets would have been able to watch Morgana at the time (along with the other children), but they were swamped back at the Inn for once and were looking for a helper for the position of a waitress.

Once Xion left by kissing Morgana's forehead in sibling love, Morgana, Adagio, and even Sunset felt a sudden odd power and when they gazed down, they soon yelped as they fell through a glowing puddle of magic before it vanished. They then landed with Morgana like before, into chairs except both teens landed on top of each other on a sofa along with Sarah being amused, again, and Morgana gave her a stare, "You like doing that, don't you?"

Sarah only seemed amused still while they saw both Sunset and Adagio in odd positions before they glanced at each other, tinting, and hastily got off each other.

"There is an interesting Book that awaits you this time, Mary," Sarah started while they glanced up to see a book glowed like a firefly before oddly molding into the shadows, and then moved like one until it showed itself into the slot as privately, the chest that was hers was finally freed by the help of Xion, and was in her room since her necklace doing its task once again as a violet portal with a strange smell of sweets and some kind of soup, flowed.

"Wait… Is this the rumored room itself that Mary tends to go to?" Sunset states in amazement as Sarah only nodded to her and made both girls stiffen by what she called them, "Correct, Miss Sunset Shimmer: Former Apprentice to Princess Celestia and Secret Wielder of Harmony to The Element of Hope, and to you, Miss Adagio Dazzle: Siren, and secret true relative to Miss Morgana Potter-Evergreen by her Biological Mother's Side that she didn't at all get a chance to see."

"Wait… You mean to tell me that-" "Correct, Miss Dazzle, as you and your siblings may not recall things as it has been a long time within the realm you were banished from, but her Mother's name wasn't truly Lily Evans but in fact, Lily Soundwave: Half-Daughter to the Sea and Sirens, and the Bloodline of the Redala Sirens to which you and your half-sisters are." Sarah tells Adagio to freeze Morgana and even Sunset by this news, and pondered something to which Sarah only nodded a solemn, yes, "Is that why we were spared? From what Loki told us about our realm, like the Gargoyle's?"

"So the reason we're here is… We're going with her to whatever Mary is heading, aren't we?" Sunset thought a few moments before asking Sarah as the woman only gave them a gentle smile, "Indeed and possibly bonding between you both and the child as well," Sarah glanced at Morgana who looked to be thoughtful presently on her next set of words, "Now, you may be tested by things only you can manage to pass, ultimately, to where your heading, and upon doing so you may gain a newfound power upon passing and possibly a Contract to what, I have no clue whatsoever for."

Morgana nodded then while lightly gulping to herself before feeling Sunset and awkwardly Adagio, touch her shoulders, "I must warn you though… In the end, things will be unpredictable if you have your… Egg-Problem during all this as well," at that, Morgana was worried while blushing in embarrassment as Sunset and Adagio figured it out instantly from Bowsette by what Sarah meant, as her cycles were oddly enough each week instead of every four months (like Bowsette thought Morgana's was), but it was random.

Sarah then waved them off as they left into the portal.


Early April 1926, New Orleans, Louisiana two weeks before events:

Morgana, Adagio, and Sunset landed on a mattress inside a room Morgana recalled all too well and was surprised as they were then whacked by a broom by a familiar face.

The young woman or otherwise known as Tiana Angela Le'Croft is a nineteen-year-old African-American woman. She is tall and slender with a sculpted figure. She also has brown skin, medium-length wavy black hair usually tied in a low ponytail, light brown eyes with pink eye shadow, a bright smile, and dimples. She wore a yellow dress over a white shirt, a white apron, and brown shoes. She also owns a dark green coat with a matching hat (which is currently hanging up).

"Lady please stop! Come on we just arrived!" Adagio states to get her to pause at the time, and warily lowered the broom while motioning to them with suspiciously narrowed eyes alongside declaring to them, "Who are you three, and…" she blinked at Morgana who waved shyly to amuse Sunset and was also gazing at them more clearly as well by their features and clothes, "What are you?"

"I think it would be in our best interests to introduce ourselves first," Sunset started while gesturing to herself, "My name, Miss, is Sunset Shimmer, and this is Adagio Dazzle and the last… Um, where did she go?" They all blinked, and then Adagio groaned while telling Sunset to concern Tiana over this as they only took her eyes off her for mere seconds, "She is too curious for her good and she might end up getting lost."

"I don't need to pry, but who're you talking about?" Tiana asked curiously as she felt she could strangely trust them and before they could reply, they all unexpectedly heard a car stop outside the house.

They were all stunned as the buggy was stopped mere inches from Morgana by vines growing and stopping the wheels it had, and she was staring at it fearfully as Adagio was the first to react and grabbed the child, and Tiana wordlessly allowed them inside with her mind in wonder as to what happened since the passerby was confused as the driver was showing his wheels yet the vines were no longer there as they secretly went back into the earth before disintegrating.

Discerning she was only shaken up, Tiana sighed in strange relief while staring at the two teen girls with a glance, and affirmed while Morgana seemed hesitant to do so, "You two better start talking about how you got to my room in the first place, or I will have to call the police."

Seeing as they had no choice, they only told her a half-truth while making her blink at what they said in utter surprise; not expecting them to say that thing with her asking then, thirty minutes later, "You were sent to this place to… Help someone, is that it?"

Noticing Morgana nod while sighing and giving them a look, told them to make both teens half-relieved and half-irked at the option she gave them, "Ok, you three could stay as long as you two work, and you," Tiana states with a stare to Morgana, "Be more careful as New Orleans is a curious place, but it can be dangerous as well."

"I guess I could live with it," Sunset states to get Adagio to balk at her secretly while Morgana hid a giggle, and Sunset then inquired with a question to the young woman, "Do you perhaps know someplace we could work at then? As we were put in charge of watching Mary, mostly," Tiana nodded before pausing, and giving them suspicious looks again by noting the obvious, "I thought you told me her name is Morgana?"

"It is, Miss Tiana, but I prefer that as if you think about it… My name is a mouthful," Morgana tells her before feeling a sneeze coming on and making Tiana confused as to why both teens forced her to duck until she widened her orbs at watching Morgana's Magic send a lightning bolt all over New Orleans, "She has Magic?!" Tiana then exclaimed in shock before they started to explain once again what she was as a race, to which she was hesitant but nodded all the same while then being slightly amused as Morgana had her old toy, and was staring at it curiously.

"Alright, but I need to get to Dukes soon as I have a place to earn... My dream mainly," Tiana explained while handing them her old flyer she saved over the years as a child and made the two teens understand what she meant, "You plan to open a restaurant? That sounds like a good idea, but how much did you save so far?" Adagio admitted to Tiana who then showed them her change drawer and made them blink, "Soon then?" Tiana only nodded before telling them then, "My mother is also living with me until she gets her place refurbished. So if she sees you three, tell her you're my roommates until I say so, and going to help pay the rent or something- Crud I need to get going!" Tiana then left with the three looking at each other, not knowing what to do at this point.


A week later (April 13th, 1926, On a Tuesday):

Sunset sighed as she and Adagio came in from Duke's along with Tiana; thankfully they just work there while wearing the outfits provided, and saw Morgana's expectant look as she was playing a game with Tiana's Mother, Eudora (same as in the movie as she's just similar to Tiana, but older).

Eudora took some time on getting used to the three girls, particularly the entirety of New Orleans itself while making small news within the Bayou about primarily Morgana and her looks, and acknowledgment as such.

Tiana was privately surprised at how well both teens were at Duke's and even the man himself at how well they both worked… Despite their bizarre skin color and some features they had.

They were confused yet explained about her race going through early puberty since the one incident occurred again for Morgana during all this a few days ago.

Anyway, off-topic.

Morgana made them wince as she hugged them while she had a smile on her face, "It's nice to see you guys are back… Why do you smell like honey still?" She raised a question while tilting her head and Tiana also not getting used to the child's sense of smell, shrugged as thankfully tonight her other job was giving her a break to prepare for Mardi Gra momentarily and revealed behind her back while delighting Morgana, Tiana's Famous Beignets was in the bag, and she hugged her and made Eudora and the other two hold back a laugh since she was briefly lifted, and thanked her hastily before going to sit down and eat one.

"She is a sweet girl, literally speaking," Tiana states to her new friends that are only three years apart from her Adagio nodded as she sat down while they heard Morgana finish up, and go wash her face and hands from within the kitchen, "Yes… And she is still making progress on her singing lessons without her energy flowing into it."

Adagio told the two what races they were and accepted that as well, and Sunset about Magic being real by overhearing the butler at La Bouff Mansion got zapped by unusual lightning, on that day.

"I just hope that things get good shortly, as your dream is coming true with our help secretly as well," Sunset then remarks while stretching as the two decided to add half of their tips to Tiana's Funds which discreetly touched her as they are also got to hang out with her other friends… When she was off that is, along with the workaholic Tiana was well understood by them.

"Yes, it is, and sooner or later, I can buy that Sugar Mill and make it my own." Tiana states tiredly while sitting in the chair and Eudora only lent her child a glance before they saw Morgana looking ready to go out, confusing them, "Ready to go?"

"Uh, go where Mary?" Sunset asked while watching Morgana blink before expressing to them, "You both forgot that you were going to get me that new book?" That made them blink before recollecting things and nodded as Adagio decided to take her and allow the others to rest, along with Adagio wearing what she arrived in this Odd Book to go out.

After leaving the bookstore with an old book about dragons, which is a secret magical shop that is that vanished, they paused at seeing two men.

One of which was offering the seller a potion while asserting to him as the other (the man mentioned) paid the second man at the table, "This will solve your problem presently, good Sir. Just take it at night and feel better about yourself the next day." The man thanked him while going away to get a better look at the other person.

He was a tall, skinny, dark-skinned man with black hair and eyebrows, thinly mustachioed, a gap in his front teeth, and purple eyes. He wore a couple of crocodile teeth attached to a black cord as a necklace, a dark crimson undertaker tailcoat with a black collar, black pants, a purple vest that shows his belly button, red waistband, tall black shoes with white spats over them, a black top hat with a skull and the crossbones upfront while having a red band, and a purple thin-like feather on top, and lastly a cane consisting of a purplish globe-like jewel on top.

This was Dr. Jon Facilier, and for once, Morgana barely remembered the man yet comprehended half of the movie as she only saw it a few times during her time at the Dursleys. Though he seems familiar to her, at the same time.

Privately though, some of the characters were blocked due to her being tested, as this man was one of them.

He noticed them while recognizing more than the Siren did from the potential of what Morgana was, and got up while acknowledging them, "Ah, Madams… Seems you are lost. Perhaps I can show you the way?"

Adagio oddly enough, sensing he couldn't be trusted, tried to speak yet Morgana was the one to offer her kindness, "Yes please, Sir, as we only been in New Orleans for a week at best and My Aunty sometimes get lost more than me, and I'm just learning things here."

Adagio gave Morgana a stare while not trying to be embarrassed as it was true, and Dr. Facilier chuckled while observing the child saw his shadow moved to be in awe by that, "Well, where do you intend to-" "Daddy! I got you some food!" A little girl's voice yelled loudly while holding a bag and making him groan as they turned, and made Morgana blink as she saw a girl around her age.

The girl or otherwise known as Fredricka "Freddie" Isis Facilier, is a young, petite, dark-skinned girl with greeny-yellow yet doll-like eyes, natural amaranth pink lips, and long black hair with light gray highlights tied in pigtails. She has four dot markings on each cheek and also has two violet streaks across her right eyebrow. She was also dressed in a similar style to her father's for her age. To mention the outfit, Freddie also wore on the left side of her head a small amaranth purple top hat with blue feathers, a scarlet dress with puffy short sleeves, and an amaranth purple waistcoat with gold lining and buttons with red and green feathers on the left side collar. She wears fading purple tights with face patterns that resemble Shadow Demons (Loa that even exist in a certain realm) and wears black and white wedge heel shoes that resemble her father's. For jewelry, she wore two golden vine bracelets around her wrists and a flower-like medallion around her neck.

"Freddie, how many times have I told you to wait for your time after I get done working?" Dr. Facilier states before he groaned at her innocence by affirming to him as his shadow was holding back giggles before looking normal, "But I thought that man was your last client?" She then saw Morgana and beamed at her before dragging her by hand, and began asking a lot of questions as both Adagio and Dr. Facilier found this rather awkward.

"It seems Mary's charm to attract others works once again to befriend them," Adagio admits to getting Dr. Facilier to pause and glance curiously at her with a few ideas, "You don't say…" he then noticed Morgana's stomach seemed to be slowly bloating to the point it made Adagio panic, discreetly, and grabbed her hand as she states hastily to them while also making up an excuse since Morgana just told her where they could play at tomorrow, "We need to get going… Thanks!"

Once they left the man narrowed his eyes, and then he was rubbing his chin while he looked briefly at his only child from his ex-wife that died from Magical Cancer, for her race she secretly was, and to his shadow mainly and with it nodding as it created from the last bit of its magic to do so one last time, making fake shadows and sent them to follow the child, "Come, Freddie, we don't want to be late for your lessons again… Now would we? As I'm sure you'll be seeing that child again real soon."


One more week later... The big day (April 20th of 1926, Three days till the New Orleans Mardi Gra Parade):

Morgana sighed as she was alone today as both Adagio and Sunset were with Tiana, and she sat outside Duke's Diner while eating some Stuffed French Toast that Sunset gave her as she was also reading the dragon book once again yet placed it down for once, being bored.

After taking a bite, she wondered if it was getting close to the plot with Larxene agreeing with her for once before she blinked as a white car of sorts, pulled up. Within were two people Morgana had got to know along with both Sunset and Adagio and exiting the roofless car.

The first was an obese, barrel-chested, red-haired, blue-eyed, red handlebar mustached, beige suit, and green-tied male that owned said car, and looked to be around his forties or so... Despite his somewhat youthful appearance.

The other was a young woman around Tiana's age who looked excited, slender and had a curvy figure, fair skin, pink delicate lips, blue eyes like the man, and natural blonde hair. She wore, however, wore the early 1920s fashioned outfit for rich women that was dark pink with a pink frill-like scarf of sorts (That's the best I can describe her outfit, sorry).

These two were Eli "Big Daddy" La Bouff, a wealthy Sugar Baron and the most respected man in the town, and Charlotte La Bouff, Tiana's only rich friend she has that understands her like Adagio, Sunset, and Morgana do about her dreams and Eli's only child.

Beholding Morgana waving at them, Eli greeted the child warmly then, "Well 'ello Cher Peeshwank, how you be on this fine Looosiana day?" Charlotte held back a giggle alongside Eli at her sigh while honestly telling him, "I'm bored Mr. La Bouff, and I was hoping Tia, Sunny, and Ada would hurry up so we can go to the store again."

"Ah, I see… That odd bookstore we have had for at least a year. Perhaps you can come inside and we can get even more of a bon coeur meal, particularly learning your appetite can be good as mine," Morgana blushes as even though she did finish her food her stomach grumbles to prove the point, and gets up and went with the La Bouff as confidentially, both of them find the child to be cute as a button despite the way she has reptile-like features, and befriended her when she saw a problem on his finances, and even did a food competition with him and came up in a tie.

Once inside, she saw Tiana was busy as always yet she looked a little down until she was confused as to why Morgana came inside but then realized with an eye roll as to why as Eli then greeted her, "Good morning, Tiana."

"Morning Mr. La Bouff. Congratulations on being voted King of the Late Mardi Gras Parade you and the entire New Orleans had to reschedule," Tiana states after hearing Sunset telling the chef she needs more gravy made and remembering Adagio is helping her make food, "Caught me completely by surprise, for the fifth year in a row!" Eli states with a laugh to Tiana in a secret joke, and then rubbed his hands together while stating to her, "Now, how about I celebrate with…" Tiana then handed him and Morgana as she sat next to the man with stars and a little drool showing to make her shake her head in amusement, by handing him her famous… "Beignets? Got a fresh batch just waiting for you."

After placing the large platter down and noticing Morgana shortly stuffing one into her mouth and staring at her gratefully, Eli states in gratitude then, "Well thank you, Cher, keep them coming till I pass out."

It was at this point Charlotte did her move as she moved hastily to her in excitement, "Oh, Tia! Tia, Tia, Tia, did you hear the news?" Tiana only gave her a look while greeting her, and hearing that, she went to her father while excited still, "Tell her. Oh, tell her, Big Daddy!" He looked confused before being amused at observing Morgana's mouth open as she was reading the paper, and reminded him as he gently took it and showed an example by explaining to Tiana gently, "Oh, yeah, Prince Naveen…" "Prince Naveen of Maldonia is coming to New Orleans!" Here, Morgana winced like largely everyone, and even the Adagio and Sunset within the kitchen at hearing this at her small yet loud squeal, "Oh! Isn't he the bee's knees?"

"Tell her what you did, Big Daddy. Tell her!" Charlotte then states while gently shaking her father in excitement still to see she was glancing at Charlotte in a weirded-out way while she stuffed another beignet into her mouth, "Well, I invited…" "Big Daddy invited the Prince to our Masquerade Ball tonight!"

Morgana spat out her food to which Tiana came over and helped the poor child as she nearly choked while blinking and with tears forming in her eyes at almost forgetting about getting a dress, and shortly guessing, stated to relieve her, "Don't worry Cher Peeshwank. I have that covered as knowing you and the other two Cher's would be attending by yours truly."

Charlotte nodded at that before going back to the previous topic to make Eli roll his eyes playfully at his daughter, "Tell her what else you did, Big Daddy for Naveen. Go on." Charlotte did a wave motion for him to continue, and he gave her a look firstly before resuming with the treat in his hand, "And he's staying…" before seeing his child speak, he shoved the beignet into her mouth to make her chew it as he resumed speaking, "And he's staying in our house as my guest."

At this, Tiana sighed while expressing to her while at the same time, giving her understanding friend some suggestions, "Oh, Lottie, that's swell. A little word of advice: My Mama always said, 'The quickest way to a man's heart is through his stomach.'" At the end of her words, she lightly pats Eli's belly, for example, getting the man to chuckle at her antics, Charlotte unexpectedly expresses an exciting idea, "That's it!"

She just swiped her father's next beignet he was going to swipe and made him instantly confused while noting to himself as he saw his child-stealing some money from his pockets while also heading over to Tiana, "What just happened?" He gave Morgana a soft glance, however, as she gave her next one to him before plopping one into her mouth, in which he lightly ruffled her hair for, "Excuse me, Daddy… Tia! You are a bona fide genius. I'm going to need about five hundred of your man-catching beignets for my ball tonight," Charlotte apologized while telling Tiana her idea, and then pleaded with her, "Will this about cover it?"

Excited as she saw how much money it was, and declared to her friend, "This should cover it just fine, Lottie. This is it! I'm getting my restaurant!" Morgana saw the chef's face look shocked as he dropped an egg on the bell, and gave stares to both Adagio and Sunset as they cheered before blushing, and turning away from each other while resuming their work.

"Tonight my Prince is finally coming. And I sure as heck ain't letting him go!" Charlotte declared while excited still, and grabbed her father while making Morgana blink at her viewpoint at seeing how strong Charlotte was at hastily moving her father out of the restaurant before shortly setting a wad of money on the table.

Confidentially in the corner as he had his child mind the shop he owns, he lowered the menu that covered his face only slightly and hummed while glancing at his shadow that did the same back with an idea in their heads, jumped, as Morgana's tail knocked over some pepper and saw her sneeze to make him blink as the money was copied on each table without it being fake but real, and she was about to sneeze again until Tiana hastily came over, and held her nose with a napkin, "Thanks Tia," she muffled before blowing her nose gently, and getting up and throwing it away.

Tiana only shook her head as she decided to get her shift done, and then contact the Fenner Brothers to settle her deal.

Morgana, however, did a double-take as she saw Dr. Facilier in the corner booth and to confuse him, came over with her food while expressing to him, "Hey Dr. Facila, nice to see you today," Dr. Facilier guessed his child kept to her word and didn't tell the child her true last name... Yet, and nodded while glancing at his menu, and paused before watching her talking to his shadow oddly enough to intrigue him, "But why would you rather root for the Cubs when you could root for maybe, Dragon Jousting? From what I read in my book," here Morgana got her book out to widen the man's eyes at what it was, and how she got it, "There is the one I like though… Night Fury, I think they were called. See Mr. Shade? They were written down as being the embodiment of lightning and death itself… But I find that they look neat."

Tiana, however, came over as Dr. Facilier's shadow returned to normal she then asked Morgana curiously, "Mary, who's this?"

"Oh, Miss Tiana, this is Dr. Facila, and he's going to be taking me to his shop after we eat so I can play with Freddie," Morgana says with him confidentially being amazed as Tiana only nodded at how the child just manipulated on getting her way as the young woman acknowledged gently to the child then, "Just have him bring you to The Ball tonight as your dress would be ready, ok?"

Morgana only nodded as when she left before taking his order, he shrugged while taking the offered treat and popped it into his mouth while asking since he recalled back then the child's supposed womb-area expanding. and discreetly looked into what race she was, "So… You can talk to Shadows like I can?" She then nodded in being confused while watching her tail love around into a question-like mark of sorts to then get him to ask, "How about after we settle our affairs here, and we head out and see what you think of Shadows."

After paying for his food and making sure no one was watching, went with Morgana privately, Larxene was suspicious as she found a small block on her memory about this man, only slightly, and tried removing it yet failed, and the two then headed out.

Once out in the streets and hours later as he was dealing with a new customer real quick, she perked up at hearing Jazz Music being played nearby and headed to where the crowd was to which the Shade of Dr. Facilier saw yet waited till he was done to tell him. Though they were both intrigued she had two futures mixed which only confused her when they did a reading on her:

One where she dies at or around seventeen, and one where she is an unusual entity that was powerful yet kind.

Once there, she saw the newspaper boy, Kevin, dancing with a man who had a ukulele and playing it while doing the same.

He was a lean but muscular, average-sized young man that seems to be a year older than her two older friends around twenty, with wavy, dark brown hair, and amber eyes. He has a slightly lighter skin tone than Tiana, and she saw he was seen wearing commoner clothes for this age of time (A dark cream vest with a white shirt, accompanied by a reddish, orange ascot, fitting into the style of traditional New Orleans of the 1920s). He also, if she looked it up, sorta resembles Bruno Campos (1).

This was discreetly Prince Naveen Hazema of Maldonia and was presently being himself while away from home.

Though it was interrupted slightly by a man that was older than him, and is a short, highly obese elderly man in a black suit, with a classic bowler hat to match the 1920s era… In which Morgana thought he resembled Mr. Smee from Peter Pan of sorts, but with a smaller nose and no glasses.

This man was Lawrence McBoza and a servant to the Royals of Maldonia.

"Sire! I've been looking for you everywhere," Lawrence tells him in a British Accent while adjusting the luggage he had in which at this time, Naveen played his instrument near him and answered back in fun, "What a coincidence, Lawrence. I have been avoiding you everywhere."

"We're going to be late for the masquerade ball-" Lawrence proceeded to tell him in worry before Naveen stop him as he declared while pointing things out, "Listen, Lawrence, listen!" Morgana did listen and thought the music was neat yet guessed why he told his servant to hear it as well, and continued in excitement, "It's Jazz. It's Jazz Music! It was born here. Is beautiful, no?" He leaned on the old man who retorted firmly to which Naveen only rolled his eyes, "No."

"Dance with me, fat man. Stay loose, Lawrence!" Naveen states as the crowd cheered him on while making his servant dance Lawrence then states back to him as he was being swirled, "We're supposed to be at the La Bouff Estate by now!"

Morgana blinks before being squished by the man by accident as Naveen tripped, and landed on him as well and making Morgana feel like she was somewhat flat and sorta heard Larxene snort in humor at this within her, and felt she was helped up by the two, "Ah, sorry there, I didn't… See…" he said something that sounded like amazement to himself as Naveen gazed at Morgana up and down and Lawrence was startled at discovering her as well, "Well, it seems New Orleans has more than meet the very eye, huh, Lawrence," Naveen states while nudging the man who nodded before resuming his task at hand, "As I said, we will be late if we don't head out by now."

"Yes, yes, yes, but first I buy everyone here a drink!" Naveen then exclaimed as the crowd cheered at that before staring at Lawrence as he expressed in retort to the foolish Prince, "With what? At this point, you have two choices: Woo and marry a rich young lady," at this, he did the greed hand sign to him before pointing at a Horse and Buggy that had a man working, "Or get a job!"

Morgana agreed with Naveen as he shook from disgust at the sight before telling the old man assuredly, "All right. Fine. But first, we dance!" He grabbed to surprise her, both him and herself, and danced while accidentally sending the old man right into a Tuba Player to have his head stuck right into it, "Is perfect! You finally got into the music," Naveen states as he stopped dancing as the crowd dispersed while heading over to his servant; Morgana behind him, "Do you get my joke? Because your head is... It's in the tuba."

"Get me out!" Lawrence told him firmly yet in personal panic as Naveen glanced around the man and decided to pull it off, and struggling while he was sorta surprised as Morgana started to pull as well, while shrugging, and managed to get the Tuba off Lawrence's Head while landing on their behinds.

Naveen laughed with Morgana blinking as to see what was funny as Lawrence only pointed out to himself, mainly, while dusting imaginary dust off his clothes, "How degrading! I've never been so humiliated-" "Hello?" Naveen asked suspiciously with Lawrence gazing at Dr. Facilier as said man greeted them while helping the child up while noticing her grabbing her belly with a wince and his eyes glinting at this in finality, "Gentlemen! Bonjour," Dr. Facilier initiated while removing his hat off briefly in greeting before placing it back on his head, and expressed while at the same time, giving Naveen his shop card, "A tip of the hat from Dr. Facilier. How y'all doing?"

Secretly within Morgana's mind, Larxene was blasted back as the block was removed and making Morgana widen her eyes and yet be both cautious, and a little relaxed as despite the week hanging out with the "Shadowman" as he was called, he was rather nice alongside her friend she made.

Dr. Facilier then commenced leading the three to his shop and peeking everywhere in case of others noticed while Naveen just read his card, "'Tarot readings, charms, potions. Dreams made real.'" Morgana though did a cute head-like tilt as she heard the Prince state that phrase again in excitement over this, "Was I be betting man, and I'm not, I stay away from games of chance…" Naveen decided while handing the card back to Dr. Facilier before Morgana took it and secretly amused the Voodoo Man as he saw the child trying to figure out the image on the card.

Though the Shadowman took Naveen's hand and proceeded on reading his palm as Lawrence tried to get his attention until the end of the palm reading as Dr. Facilier states still at the end, "...I'd wager I'm in the company of visiting royalty." He was standing with his cane, and they were confidentially near his shop as well.

"Lawrence. Lawrence! This remarkable gentleman has just read my palm," Naveen tells him as he showed the old man while he glanced behind Dr. Facilier and saw the rolled-up newspaper within his back pocket, "Or this morning's newspaper," he then started whispering to Naveen in advice while making Dr. Facilier not at all happy at that, "Sire! This chap is a charlatan. I suggest we move on to a less-" "Don't disrespect me, little man!" The Shadowman told him with glimpsing Morgana knowing the place, went right into it in a hurry while holding her belly as it proceeded to bloat and his shadow nodded while doing a signal to have a shadow follow her and he was, at the same time, distracting the two gentlemen before him while singing.

Dr. Facilier: "Don't you derogate or deride~. You're in my world now. Not your world. And I got friends on the Other Side~."

Dr. Facilier then had his door open automatically while they heard entering, certain voices agreeing with him by repeating the words.

? (Same time): "He's got friends~ on the Other Side~."

Dr. Facilier then began to assure the two while observing his shadow had an egg that for once didn't disintegrate at all and was oddly black as night and motioned (with hand puppetry) that she was with his child at the moment, and nodded as he kept leading the two men inside while everything related to Voodoo was in plain sight, of sorts, as his shadow took the egg and hid it, "That's an echo, gentlemen. Just a little something we have here in Louisiana, a little parlor trick. Don't worry."

He snapped his fingers while motioning for them to continue as the lights came on around the average-looking round table with a seers cloth on it, and curtains as well that seemed to be hiding something.

Dr. Facilier: "Sit down at my table. Put your minds at ease. If you relax, it will, enable me to do anything I please~."

Naveen sat at the table while Lawrence wondered where his hat went before holding in a yelp as he was kicked from his own shadow with Dr. Facilier's own, and both Shadowman and Shadow slapped each other on the hands as he was still dancing and showing off as his shadow was dancing in the background as well differently than him as while he did that, he sang still.

Dr. Facilier: "I can read your future~. I can change it around some, too~. I look deep into your heart and soul."

He came up to the old man while stating to him curiously yet in a humorous way with a mix of seriousness privately with his cane, "You do have a soul don't you, Lawrence?"

He then commenced dancing on the table without moving the cloth as he sang more. As he danced and sang, he showed them objects and stuff, even a chest that revealed a secret fire elemental servant to a power source he captured only recently.

Dr. Facilier: "Make your wildest dreams come true. I got voodoo, I got hoodoo. I got things I ain't even tried. And I got friends on the other side~."

When Dr. Facilier sang at the end, he got ready to sit with them not glimpsing his shadow moving the chair's own shadow for him to effortlessly sit, and the Voodoo Masks behind proceeded to sing briefly in agreement with him.

Voodoo Masks (Same time): "He's got friends on the Other Side."

Dr. Facilier then started to show off with his Seer Cards (which I'm calling that), setting them down and demonstrating and sitting down with a gesture at the end as his cards were positioned on the table.

Dr. Facilier: "The Cards, The Cards. The Cards will tell. The Past, The Present, and The Future, as well. The Cards, The Cards, just take three. Take a little trip into your future with me~."

He then let both gents obtain three cards, and they placed them in front of each other and with him beginning on reading Naveen's Cards firstly, starting with the Past Card.

Dr. Facilier: "Now you, young man are from across the sea~! You come from two long lines of royalty~."

Dr. Facilier then showed his actual mother's shrunken head while admitting to the Prince, "I'm a royal myself on my mother's side." After that, he then continued to read his cards in song and moved on to the Present Card.

Dr. Facilier: "Your lifestyle's high~. But your funds are low~. You need to marry a little honey whose Daddy got dough."

Dr. Facilier was discreetly impressed while telling him curiously yet also as a statement, "Mom and Dad cut you off, huh, playboy?" Naveen agreed with Lawrence rolling his eyes at his words, in admittance, "Eh, sad but true."

The Shadowman only nodded while telling him then in explanation and showing the greed hand sign at the end of his words and using his cards still and struggling before laying a few down in a line as he chuckled, "Now y'all got to get hitched. But hitching ties you down. You just want to be free, hop from place to place. But freedom takes green." He saw Naveen's eyes gaze greedily at that as he moved on to his last card: The Future Card.

Dr. Facilier: "It's the green, it's the green. It's the green you need~! And when I look into your future it's the green that I seen." Naveen then took the card while Facilier proceeded to look into Lawrence's own set, and started to start with his Past Card, in song and seeing he had the man's interest.

Dr. Facilier: "On you, little man, I don't want to waste much time. You have been pushed round all your life~. You have been pushed 'round by your mother. And your sister and your brother."

Lawrence stared expectantly while getting irritated as what he said was true as he went shortly next to his Present Card.

Dr. Facilier: "And if you were married~... You'd be pushed around by your wife."

At that Naveen chuckled while getting Lawrence irritated as Dr. Facilier decided to show him something else and touched his shoulders while Naveen was distracted, and showed him his Alternative Future Card by his Black Magic.

Dr. Facilier: "But in your future, the you I see… Is exactly the man you always wanted to be!"

The card showed Lawrence being the royal while smelling a familiar rose back in Beast's Castle and Naveen was wearing a jester outfit and doing work. At this Card, greed easily took hold of the old man as Dr. Facilier proceeded to sing some more in a somewhat fake-innocent gesture, by his sung words.

Dr. Facilier: "Shake my hand~. Come on, boys… Won't you shake a poor sinner's hand?"

Naveen and Lawrence did shake his hand as Dr. Facilier had his arms crisscrossing, and Lawrence's handshake was with both while looking greedy, and Naveen's unsure, and Dr. Facilier then sealed the deal while noting to them both one single word, "Yes!"

The curtain behind them opened up and in front to reveal floating Voodoo Masks and one being the leader and oddly enough, Troll-like in a certain universe-like realm. But it was a mix of a large horned, purple-carved mask and sharp teeth.

Dr. Facilier then started to dance and sing while preparing what the two sought out from the cards they had then. The smaller Masks gave off "Bum"-like humming with glowing-green eyes, as the Shadowman commenced his work.

Dr. Facilier: "Are you ready? Are you ready? Are you ready? Are you~ ready~?"

The larger Voodoo Loa Mask opens his mouth and within was a portal, and at the same time, two spectral snakes wrap around Naveen's Chair and trapped him in place as the Leading Mask gave Dr. Facilier a Voodoo Talisman in a shape of a frog, of sorts.

Dr. Facilier reached in and grabbed it while singing along and with appearing shrunken heads. Though when he sang, he waved with small magic to show he moved his hand in front of his face with what his card had on it to describe his work.

Dr. Facilier: "Transformation Central!"

Heads and Voodoo Dolls (Same time): "Transformation Central!"

Dr. Facilier: "Transformation Central! Reformation Central!"

Heads (Same Time): "Reformation Central!"

Dr. Facilier: "Transmogrification Central!"

When Dr. Facilier came over, he opened the Talisman, and it bit while cursing at the same time, Naveen and even as he shouted out in surprising pain from his fingertip as it showed a drop of blood and Dr. Facilier looking satisfied as he sang, and the object glowing briefly while filling fully with that amount of blood.

Dr. Facilier: "Can you feel it? You're changing, you're changing. You're changing, all right~. I hope you're satisfied~! But if you ain't, don't blame me. You can blame my friends… On the Other Side~!"

Once the spell fully took with Lawrence gazing on in horror of sorts, the Prince was then changed into a frog. As the spell went, Magic from Voodoo started floating around as it did so, and a green-like mist-covered Naveen as it did as well, at the same time.

Dr. Facilier was then dancing with The Voodoo Dolls as he laughed and danced while they sang the final parts.

Dolls: "You got what you wanted… But you lost what you had!"

The Masks hummed loudly with their eyes glowing, and after he slid forwards on his knees, he shortly stood up and expressed the word while motioning it and the room going dark, "Hush!"

Once the lights came back on, Dr. Facilier instantly placed Naveen into a jar, gave it to Lawrence along with the Talisman, and then told him firmly, "You head to The Ball while I consider things. Just place the Talisman around your neck, and you will figure it out for yourself." Hearing footsteps from the upstairs part of his complex as The Masks hastily went back to normal, and shooed Lawrence out while locking the door, he saw his daughter and The Masks eyeing curiously along with the leading one, at Morgana, as they seemed to be excited about something.

"Daddy, Mary has a Shadow like yours!" That made the Shadowman blink in shock while hugging his child, and sure enough, to secretly amaze all The Voodoo Masks privately, Morgana's Shadow was dancing with her and even aiding her as oddly enough, her shadow had glowing-amber eyes that gazed at him afterward with a curious head tilt as Morgana does before stunning them as unlike his, it detached itself from her and was exploring the room. So it's true about the race itself being able to obtain Certain Magic with ease, of sorts. "While that's interesting... Perhaps you both should get ready for the trip to the Rich Man's Mansion soon?"

It seems that the child was smarter than she looked as she gazed at him with a curious head tilt, and states with an innocent question, "Where did Mr. Naveen and Lawrence head to?" He was suspicious, however, as by her gaze secretly it was as if she already realized where they went but wanted to ask him, still, "They left after I gave them a Potion of Luck to The Ball." He lies as she stared at him a few moments before nodding, and turning to her shadow as it poked the Leading Tiki Mask in interest before heading back over and attaching itself back to her, "Come on Amogaxrn… Ami, come on!"

The Shadow christened as Ami, glanced briefly at Shadowman like an innocent young shadow, before becoming normal like his own as the two then headed back upstairs with a few laughs.

Dr. Facilier saw the Masks stare at him, and he was just as surprised as they were by admitting it, "Beats me y'all… What do you mean you have an interest in both of them instantly?" He asked in utter wonder along with the other Masks glancing at their leader the same way, and if it could right now be shrugged, and gazed at him as he sighed while thinking to himself aloud, "Perhaps… She is of that race and they did aid you of sorts from what you told me, Bwonsamdi's Servant (2): Zalandar, long ago… A contract if she passed a test without souls? Is that possible?" Seeing the smirk the mask gave him understood it was true, and blinked as it went back to normal to secretly report to a certain Loa all servants serve within the realms of the other side of Shadow Realm, to the Head Realm of Loa that's on a world of sorts, unlike this one... With it planning stuff all its own.


La Bouff Mansion Backyard Grounds, a few hours later:

"Hold still Morgana! I have to get you pretty if you want to attend." Sunset told the child as she saw Sunset give her an apologetic stare as Adagio was leaning on a wall while not trying to laugh as she was pulling Morgana's hair as Dr. Facilier and Freddie were simply in the courtyard along with the other costumed guests that are poor, common, and rich folk.

"But it hurts," she confided her when she brushed it again to which she sighed while giving Adagio a look as, during their time here, it grew back to the way it was before during her start with Belle, and the Siren sighed while she came over and gently grabbed the brush and not realizing when they touched hands to have Sunset's heart oddly thump in place to confuse the ponygirl, and proceeded to work her style-based magic as she had to do hers and Sonata's, on occasion.

When she was done, Morgana was gaping along with Sunset as her hair was now styled like Princess Peach from the Mario Franchise, but had her ponytail style at the back.

"There, that should be perfect for at least The Ball tonight," Adagio states gently while watching the amazement from Morgana's mirrored self as she then got hugged by Morgana while Sunset blinked at glimpsing the eyes of her reflection be amber-like and itself remain the way and giggled, and when she blinked it was back to normal. I gotta switch to decaf, she only thought to herself as they headed out and Morgana froze at discovering all the people yet gulped and hoped she would find others she recognized as odd luck would have it, she had her one dress that appeared somehow from the one ball underneath her outfit and saw that both Adagio and Sunset wore a dress similar to their clothes and with them having their clothes under it as well.

Though said dresses were discreetly what the teens guessed were from Mr. La Bouff himself, as they secretly hid the card that noted it.

With them in the courtyard immediately, they saw Morgana was nervous yet she then saw her childhood friend near Tiana and headed over there while the two teens shrugged before Sunset blinked (in surprise) by Adagio awkwardly remarking while rubbing the side of her left cheek, hesitantly, "Do you… Do you care to dance?" Adagio seemed surprised slightly when Sunset softly told her while observing everyone was busy, and discreetly making Adagio's heart thump this time by her hand being within hers, "Sure."

While Morgana saw them dance, she blinked oddly enough, discovering a strange golden line form just like she saw between her sister and Adam when they fell in love, privately that is, as Freddie states while grabbing a beignet for herself and confessing after swallowing one and giving one to her, "That's what Daddy told me was a Soulbond Line."

Morgana turned to her in minor shock as Freddie shrugged as if it was common knowledge before she started explaining, "Daddy told me in my lessons that only those with special eyes like me and you have, could see them yet we can't see ours at all." She paused before adding to her words, "But it is rare to see two Soulmates like them just starting as this Line is fresh, from what I see."

Nodding before glimpsing Tiana gives them an amused yet privately bewildered stare at what they were conversing about, she was about to say something while wearing presently a Renaissance Costume with honey yellow and a light green/brown as its primary colors. "Stella. Excuse me. Stella, no. No," Stella was Charlotte's dog as she is a female obese bloodhound with a brown little nose, light-brown fur, wore a red bow tie, short legs, (in costume presently), and lastly, a helmet gladiator's held mand skirt… And she was trying to get into some of the food.

Morgana blinked as she saw the dog whine while secretly begging in English and with Freddie being amused as she has that gift already due to being about the Shadowman, "Please, I just want one… Come on, you know you can give me one, Tiana." Tiana caved as she only heard the dog whining, with big soulful eyes from Stella, and grabbed some tongs then while gently telling her, "Alright, just one."

Once she tossed it and Stella moved as she slipped and slides a few feet while eating it to amuse them before making Morgana lightly jump as Charlotte came over and went beside her to get napkins, and declared mainly to Tiana in worry, "Give me their napkins, quick!"

"What on earth for?" Tiana asked in concern before she was giving her friend an eye roll without Charlotte glimpsing it as she confessed to her and Tiana understood who she meant, "I swear, I'm sweating like a sinner in church. Tia, it's getting to be so late, where is he?!"

"There are still a few stragglers," Tiana commented as Charlotte looked devastated of sorts while beholding she was crying, "It's just not fair! My Prince is never coming!" She ran up the stairs as Morgana decided to mind the food and Freddie took another treat for herself since it was a special occasion, and they could barely hear what they were saying before they heard an announcer state aloud, making Morgana suspicious while she plopped her own into her mouth, "Ladies and Gentlemen! His Royal Highness, Prince Naveen!"

While hearing the crowd awe and whatnot at seeing Naveen show up, she almost was run over by Charlotte giving the child a sorry-like glance before staring at Naveen, and panted while looking presentable, and started dancing as Tiana was walking down looking startled of sorts before starting on happily at least for Charlotte.

"Evening, Tiana. Marvelous party," a two-man horse costume states with it revealing the fraternal twin brothers: The Fenner Brothers. "Evening, Mr. Fenner and Mr. Fenner," Tiana greeted them as they briefly blinked while getting the beignets at seeing mostly Morgana before gazing at Tiana then, "Fine-smelling beignets," the smaller twin states to her while getting more than he should while shoving them into the costume, and paused while they looked at her warily by her words as she offered the taller one a beignet, "Going to be the house specialty once I sign those papers y'all brought."

Morgana sensed something was wrong and she was right as they proceeded to explain to her, "Yes. About that…" "You were outbid." They told her with the smaller twin saying it after eating a beignet. "What?" Tiana states to them in immediate disbelief as the taller twin initiated to explain more to her, "A fellow came in and offered the full amount in cash. Unless you can top his offer within a few days from now…" he was interrupted by his smaller, obese twin, "You can kiss that place goodbye."

"You know how long it took me to save that money?" Tiana expressed before they could leave her booth as Freddie saw Morgana's eyes shift once again with her also narrowing them at the two brothers as she thought it wasn't at least fair to get her friend a chance to have more time, not understanding about business as of yet, "Exactly! Which is why a little woman of your background would have had her hands full trying to run a big business like that… No, you're better off where you're at."

Tiana not hearing a growl oddly enough, coming from Morgana as her eyes reddened and began shifting to secretly make Freddie memorize them as she thought she saw them before in one of her books, into a similar bloodline from another realm as her eyes then permanently shifted into the same eye color she has yet they each had a blue pupil and the iris shifted without pain due to her mood, into a silvery-grey-like floral design (3).

"Now, wait a minute…" the obese twin did state honestly to her as they took off in costume, "Love those beignets though," and Tiana declaring something to quickly grab the costume's tail yet it yanked off, and she along with Morgana as her shadow protected Freddie to amaze her briefly, as their dresses were ruined while making a mess.

"Tia! Time to hit Prince Charming with those man-catching… What happened?" Charlotte started while coming over before staring at their states in utter shock as Morgana sniffled while they didn't notice her eyes at first or even her shadow going back to her as she couldn't see from the closed and also covered in frosting, "I... I just…" Tiana states before glancing away as Charlotte helped the two up with the blonde also getting most of the frosting off of Morgana's face as Tiana looked guilty of sorts by that, "You poor dears… Oh, Prince Naveen, we'll be right back, sugar!"

Charlotte then led the two as Morgana grabbed Tiana's left hand in blind trust since she was bleary still in sight, and Freddie decided to head over to Sunset and Adagio as they were just about to kiss and were talking to them about what just occurred, to Charlotte's Room.

In Charlotte's Room, it held books and whatnot like in the movie, "I got just the dress for you Tiana, and luckily my more formal child dress back then also fits well with Mary here," as oddly enough, this was the same dress yet pink and had a fancier design to it, and wiping her eyes still, she froze while commenting to make Tiana pause and glance to be astonished as well while changing before shaking her head as she finished up, "My dear lord, your eyes changed."

Blinking in confusion, Charlotte simply guided the confused child to her mirror and she blinked once again in utter awe-like alarm as she was silent as they also shifted to those very eyes and back when she saw them, and expressed to her softly in distress, once again, "What… What happened to my eyes, Char?"

Charlotte only shrugged before she saw Tiana come out alongside Morgana and she thought the dress suited her as it did in the movie, as Tiana thanks to Charlotte, immediately wore a blue princess gown that came with a matching tiara as well as a necklace complete with a blue diamond.

"Look at you… Aren't you just as pretty as a magnolia in May?" Charlotte tells her friend who tinted privately yet was thankful that the lighting was dim enough to hide it, and tinted even more as Morgana agreed with her, "Yes, and Miss Tiana does look pretty." Tiana smiles softly at Morgana before glancing away while looking depressed somewhat by Charlotte then telling her as she hugged her gently as well, "Seems like only yesterday we were both little girls dreaming our fairytale dreams, and tonight they're finally coming true," Morgana recalled that at least before glimpsing Charlotte smiled at her excitedly then, and Tiana placed a smile on her face for seeing her friend happy at least, "Well, I'm gonna go back into the fray. Wish me luck! Oh, Naveen…" once she was gone, Tiana dropped her smile while sighing.

She then started to sing briefly to herself while heading to the Balcony that Charlotte owned while gazing at the clear sky now alongside the stars shining brightly and at least saving her long-held item from the accident on her previous attire: Her slip of paper that was for her restaurant.

Tiana: "Almost. Almost there~. People would have come from everywhere~. I was almost there."

She jumped as Morgana hugged her and her eyes softened at this while gently thanking her for lifting her mood only slightly, and glimpsing the Evening Star shining brightly in the sky as Morgana stepped back a few moments as it seemed Tiana was in a decision to herself while she heard then, "I can't believe I'm going to do this…. Please, please, please." Tiana closed her eyes and begged gently upwards to the sky while gently hugging her slip of paper.

Morgana blinked while Tiana held in a gasp of being startled as a familiar frog appeared while glancing at her, and Tiana glanced upwards as she noted the star as Morgana when she looked up, she saw it twinkle in amusement at her, "Very funny."

Tiana then looked at the frog then while expressing herself to him to amuse herself while only confusing Morgana by what she meant still, "So what now? I reckon you want a kiss?" She stiffened briefly as she did not expect the frog in terms, of Naveen, to answer back while gesturing to her, "Kissing would be nice, yes?"

Morgana held her ears along with her shadow showing on the ground as both Naveen and Tiana didn't see while Tiana also screamed in fright alongside backing up, tripping to land on something and knocking down Charlotte's stuffed animals kept for namesakes and whatnot.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I did not mean to scare you," Naveen states before beholding Morgana and blinking at seeing her again, before shaking his head and proceeding to speak more to Tiana, "I... Wait, no, no, no! Wait. Hold on a sec…" Tiana started tossing toys at him in fear still, and he kept dodging as she began getting another while Naveen commented to her, "You have a very strong arm, Princess." When he saw the stuffed monkey, "Okay, please! Put the monkey down." She tossed it anyways before Morgana sneezed and they froze as the toys came to life, and fled to the party and winced as Morgana sniffled to herself before they heard Eli shout something and the child saw they fled into town and came to be trekking the country.

Shaking her head and glaring at the frog, started to frantically search for something until she grabbed a certain book, and held it up, "Stay back or I'll…" grunting as he hopped up to the mirror-like dresser Charlotte had, he proceeded to state to her in the introduction, "Allow me to introduce myself. I am Prince Naveen-" she then whacked him with the book she had as he weakly states while Morgana winced at his brief smashed state, "Of Maldonia."

Eyes wide at what he said, she commenced denying to herself, "Prince? But I didn't wish for any…" she glanced at the star briefly before staring at the frog… Naveen in suspicion and with disbelief alongside being smart about this as she motioned to him, and then to the balcony, "Hold on. If you're the Prince, then who was that waltzing with Lottie on the dance floor?"

Realizing who she meant, he got ahold of himself with Morgana aiding Naveen with a grateful look to the child at that before he coughed and states to Tiana, "All I know is one minute I am a Prince, charming and handsome, cutting a rug, and then the next thing I know, I am tripping over these." As he spoke, he danced briefly to demonstrate yet tripped and moved his feet-like flippers.

"Wait, wait, wait, wait! I know this story!" Naveen tells Tiana as she still held the book and was about to smash him again yet paused at that as she saw the title and states softly in disbelief at the strange coincidence at hand, "The Frog Prince?" She then sat the book down after he gestured for her to do so, and he proceeded to look into the book.

While he was peeking into the book, he started to state to Tiana about his past slightly as a child, "My Mother had the servants read this to me every night," he found the two pages he was looking for and flipped back and forth while noting then aloud, "Yes, yes, yes! This is exactly the answer!" He then stared at Tiana then to make her go blank for a moment, "You must kiss me."

"Excuse me?" Tiana then tells him as if he was joking, and by his gaze, he wasn't when he then told her seriously, "You will enjoy it, I guarantee. All women enjoy the kiss of Prince Naveen. Come. We pucker." He made a kissing gesture while standing up like a person yet he bloated around his throat like a frog would do as he freaked her out and made Morgana giggle while he was startled and admitted to her then after returning to normal, "That's new."

"Look, I'm sorry. I'd really like to help you, but I just do not kiss frogs," Tiana tells him while repulsed at the idea ever since she was a little girl.

Naveen, however, looked to be shocked while admiring to her her own words then, "Wait a sec, but on the balcony, you asked me-" he blinked briefly as Tiana declared back to him with a hint of honesty and being stumped in her tone, "I didn't expect you to answer!" He then told her as she turned away with her arms crossed, making her wonder what kissing has to do with anything as the only kisses she ever knew were on the forehead or cheek, onto herself, "But you must kiss me."

Naveen sighed before getting an idea and making Tiana glance at him then, "Look, besides being unbelievably handsome, okay, I also happen to come from a fabulously wealthy family. Surely I could offer you some type of reward, a wish I could grant, perhaps? Yes?" Tiana paused while glimpsing her flyer from all those years ago with "Tiana's Place" on it was out in the open, and she gazed at Naveen then and held her finger from her left hand to the number one, "Just one kiss?" Her tone, however, was unsure.

"Just one, unless you beg for more," he told her while licking his lips and disgusting her.

She decided a kiss that would be worth her dream, was worth it and closed her eyes while licking her lips when she was close and saw Naveen pucker his lips as he did, she recoiled back in disgust before calming herself and not noticing Naveen borrowed some of Charlotte's perfume and sprayed it into his mouth, and checked his breath while talking to herself softly, "Okay, Tiana, you can do this. You can do this. Just a little kiss. Just a little kiss. Okay."

Once Tiana did kiss him quickly and seeing the spell working, it did something Morgana didn't expect: It reached for her as well with a silent yelp and a flash, she saw she was in her dress yet felt she was still wearing her original clothes, and when she got out she was to her shock, shrunken as herself and without ending up as a lizard or anything in which Naveen was wide-eyed at yet when he looked down after noticing Tiana wasn't there and not seeing Morgana's shadow helped her up as she felt weak from the unexpected magic shifting next to him, she heard him exclaimed that same language while seeing the blue dress Tiana was in, was moving.

Seeing she sent the hand mirror Charlotte owns from her mirror-like dresser fall on top while oddly enough into its sides, they saw Tiana was immediately a frog as well.

"You don't look that much different," Tiana started while not seeing Morgana's borrowed dress on the floor or Morgana herself yet near Naveen, and was also puzzled then while noting it to him, "But how did you get way up there? And how did I get way down here in all this…" she froze at discovering her right arm was all green, and turned to see herself as said female frog and yelled or screamed in feared shock before hopping without meaning to next to him and moving him and her over a few inches onto the dresser.

After they stood up he commenced stating to her in trying to calm her down, "Easy, Princess. Princess, do not panic!" Though it didn't work as Tiana replied to him while touching her body and staring at him in a worried-like accusation, "What did you do to me? I'm green and I'm slimy!" To prove a point something like slime did come from her hands in her panic state, and she was then confused by his next words, "No! No, no, no, that is not slime." "What?" She asked while he showed it to her, "You are secreting mucus."

Before Morgana could open her mouth she was abruptly joined in on their falling parade as once Tiana tackled Naveen in irritated anger at him, they fell, bounced, and landed on the drum before trying to dodge as he was hitting it to an upbeat and his band members following and the crowd dancing as without Morgana realizing, Sunset and Adagio proceeded to look for her alongside Freddie.

Once he bounced the three high enough, Morgana landed oddly enough close to the balloons while she saw Naveen and Tiana land into Charlotte's dress she was wearing and with the blonde moving jerkingly to try and shake them out as 'Naveen' saw this while carrying wine glasses with red wine, and dropped them as Charlotte toppled over while screeching, and Eli seeing this got angered, and then declared loudly a name, "Stella!"

Stella who was snacking away at the beignets, paused and rapidly raised her head while swallowing the food, stood alert as Eli indicated at both Naveen and Tiana, "Get them frogs!"

Paling if possible, Naveen told them with 'Naveen' gasping in worry at what frog that was, to Tiana, "Run!" He told Tiana as she retorted back to him with a serious look, "I can't run I'm a frog!" He didn't glance back yet they started to do as he stated as Stella chased them, "Then hop!"

They then ran to the same table at the beginning as Stella went everywhere and got some costumes enough to fool a drunk man that wore an octopus costume to pour all his wine and even avoided a Zoro costumed man, "Down, boy. Down, monster dog!" Naveen states to Stella who only kept the chase while they had a mask on them still, tripped and tangled Morgana alongside them in the balloon strings as Stella kept and accidentally freed them while Tiana states to the dog, "Stella, it's me, Tiana!"

"Tiana!?" The female dog states in shocked bewilderment before landing on top of a cake that splattered the Fenner Brothers as Tiana states to Naveen mainly in utter panic as well, "Stella just talked to me. The dog just spoke to me!"

"You know, if you're going to let every little thing bother you, it's going to be a very long night!" Naveen states before they did a double-take at discovering a frog-sized Morgana as she in turn, sheepishly waved while tangled up like they were since they declared openly, at the same time, in disbelief, "Mary/Little Girl!"

Below, however, 'Naveen' saw Dr. Facilier and headed to a spare living room within the mansion to settle himself before he showed up, looking angered. "Oh, dear. Oh! You're so quiet," was all 'Naveen' stated to him before he winced at the accused tone Dr. Facilier firmly expressed to him, "You let him go?!" 'Naveen' then gulped lightly, "The poor devil was gasping, so I loosened the lid ever so slightly," 'Naveen' then told him before Facilier's Shadow tripped him as 'Naveen' looked to see said shadow laughing at its joke at tripping him.

'Naveen' then looked fed up while he declared then to Dr. Facilier, "Now how did I ever get tangled up in all this voodoo madness? I can't go through with this!" When he took the Voodoo Talisman off around his neck, 'Naveen' rapidly changed back into, surprisingly, back into Lawrence while wearing Naveen's royal clothing, and claimed firmly at Dr. Facilier while tossing it, "You wear this ghastly thing!"

Dr. Facilier hastily caught it while claiming to him in a brief panic to spook the old man, "Careful with that! Anything happens to this, I'm going to be…" he saw the state Lawrence was in yet sighed before showing him along with his words on demonstration, "Fun fact about Voodoo, Larry. Can't conjure anything for me." It was proven true as he remained the same.

Dr. Facilier then went over and proceeded to tell the old man then while leading him near said portrait, "Besides, you and I both know the real power in this world ain't Magic. It's money! Buckets of it." He used his cane to show Eli's image to make Lawrence reluctantly nod back in agreement, "That's true."

"Aren't you tired of living on the margins while all those fat cats in their fancy cars don't give you so much as a sideways glance?" Dr. Facilier tells him while secretly admitting about himself as despite having a child, he barely has enough to meet ends meet and tends to swindle most of the time while increasing his debt to a certain mask, and moved away from Lawrence briefly as he declared it while his back was turned.

"Yes. I am," Lawrence told him determined as Dr. Facilier shortly moved and went beside him to his left as he led him to a full-bodied mirror as he spoke, re-knotted the rope that the Talisman was using around Lawrence's neck as he shifted back into looking like the Prince, "All you gotta do is marry Big Daddy's little princess, and we'll be splitting that juicy La Bouff Fortune right down the middle. 60/40, as I said."

"Hmm. Yeah. But what about Naveen?" Lawrence noted to him before giving a small yelp by getting slapped in the back of the head by Dr. Facilier's words to him firmly, "Your little slip-up will be a minor bump in the road, so long as we've got the Prince's Blood in this." In the end, he showed him the Talisman which they both chuckled with Lawrence stating to him, "Yes."

Lawrence hastily hid his Voodoo Talisman into his shirt with Dr. Facilier and the old man in disguise turned as they heard the doors open to see it was Sunset Shimmer and Freddie who ran to him with tears in her orbs as Lawrence was bewildered this man had a child at least, discreetly, "Daddy, Mary is gone!" She cried onto him to freeze the Shadowman and confidentially his shadow up by this news, "What do you mean sweetheart?" He noted in a convincing tone that was both half-sincerity and half-worry about this, and glanced at Sunset since she looked worried as well, "We searched the grounds with everyone else looking… It's like she just vanished."

Giving Lawrence a look for later, he told his child assuredly while she nodded then, "I'm sure she would be found in no time… In the meanwhile, I heard you're a good sitter for children within the city of New Orleans, Miss Shimmer?" That made her blink with her eyes narrowing in confused suspiciousness at him with Freddie gazing at her wide-eyed at that as she acknowledged slowly in honesty then, "Yes… What about it?"

His answer made her give him a What-like look while Freddie stared at him in slight surprise while reluctantly going over to her then, "I would need you to watch her for a few days while I handle… The business of sorts, and I will possibly send her to Duke's with her bag for at least a few days as well."

"Alright," Sunset expressed with the Shadowman hugging his child briefly and told her to enjoy the party and later he would take her home to pack and turned to Lawrence with an understanding look on the old man's face, "She isn't ready at all to handle our degree in work, and in case anything goes wrong… Not to have my friends on the Other Side to use her as leverage."

They then initiated to plot what to do tomorrow.


"Voodoo!" Tiana states as they were all floating over a swamp, and Tiana just found out that she was cursed like Naveen was due to Voodoo of the worse kind being involved, and by Morgana's size as she simply watched them argue… Was in the crossfire as discreetly, Yidhian was trying to escape the ring on Morgana's finger for some time yet an unusual, magical barrier kept preventing her.

"You mean to tell me this all happened because you were messing with the Shadowman?" Tiana then declared to him while Naveen fires back at what he learned of the man mentioned while waving around briefly, "He was very charismatic." Tiana groaned before she stared at a looking away Morgana by his next set of words, "And she was there! Playing with his child!"

Though she digested the words Naveen stated and had realized what "Child" he meant and started to state Morgana then in concern as the child looked like she was getting ready to cry, instead of accusing her, "Mary-" "I didn't know he was the Shadowman at all until earlier today since he was so nice to me while I hung out with Freddie!" Morgana states in speeded words with her sniffling while she shivered to realize she was cold, slightly, while still tangled up like they were, and turned to Naveen while getting a stare from Tiana as he spoke more, "Seems to me that she was played of her parts. Though I did see true friendship with that man's child before my servant took off with me, in that jar."

Shaking her head at this as she maneuvered only to what she could to pat Morgana on the back to know she was not at all mad at her but decided to state to herself mainly while Naveen gave her a quizzical stare to Tiana's words, "It serves me right for wishing on stars. The only way to get what you want is hard work."

"Hard work? Why would a Princess need to work hard?" Naveen asked with suspicion discreetly in his tone before Tiana blinked before confessing to him, making him go wide-eyed, "Huh? Oh! I'm not a Princess. I'm a Waitress." She then narrowed her eyes as they were about to get into another argument by his words, "A Waitress? Well, no wonder the kiss did not work. You lied to me!" He accused Tiana as she rolled her eyes and told him back, "No, I... I never said I was a Princess."

"You never said that you were a Waitress! You... You were wearing a crown!" He didn't see Tiana looked peeved at that as she then retorted back to him, "It was a costume party, you spoiled little rich boy!" He seemed to be half-irritated and half-amused at her words as he decided to reply to irritate Tiana yet made her state a 'What' to him, after, "Oh, yes? Well, the egg is on your face, all right? Because I do not have any riches. I am completely broke! Ha Ha!"

"Ummm…." "What?" They both contended before wincing at how rude they sounded by seeing Morgana's eyes go wide, and she only pointed in small fear at them to the upcoming branch and with Naveen noting then, "Oh no!" The balloons easily popped while they fell alongside getting untangled, and fell.

Tiana fell first into some spiderwebs while Morgana landed in some as well and went wide-eyed unlike Tiana who was relieved at not going into the water as the child discreetly, doesn't at all know how to swim as in her last adventure for Moana, she only did it by her instincts guiding her, and this time, her fear overrode them.

Tiana groaned as she was then plopped into the water as Naveen landed on her then, and scraps of the balloons were easily floating stationary on the water as well.

Morgana though was relieved to see the water was at least shallow but sneezed as they ducked from a lightning bolt jumping all over the swamp, and hit a certain woman's few glass bottles while making her groan to herself at needing another replacement or two. "Hang on Mary, let me get ya down," Tiana states while ignoring the flinch the child did when she touched her, and made her regret shouting at her then while she helped her down.

Tiana though saw Naveen come over, and acknowledged him then while gently patting Morgana's back to let her wordlessly understand she wasn't angry with her, "You said you were fabulously wealthy!"

"No. My parents are fabulously wealthy," he started while doing that greed sign as his one arm was in the water, and raised it while speaking to her still, "But they cut me off for being a…" "Umm… Mr. Naveen," Morgana quietly hesitated to him as he paused at his words and swerved to her as she innocently declared openly next since he saw where she was indicating, "What's that?" It was a leech bound to his arm, "Leech! Leech!" He tried to get it off yet it was Tiana who helped him as she effortlessly held it without fear, and asserted to him still and secretly amused by that, "You're broke, and you had the gall to call me a liar?"

Once she hurled the leech to the deeper parts of the water, that was when things went hectic and Tiana held onto Morgana while she oddly enough, rode her like a frog-like horse as she was dazed after hitting her head once and didn't heed anything yet saw they were being stalked by a bird of sorts, and a few others things before they flew, and lastly landed on their butts on a floating log.

Once Morgana's hearing easily came back, she listened to the last few snippets between them both while Tiana was confused as to why she clings to her fearfully at realizing she was on deeper water, "All right, then. Once you two are married, you are going to keep your promise and get me my restaurant, right?"

Naveen though counters her with his argument as Morgana saw something that he did a little late, "Not so fast. I made that promise to a beautiful Princess, not a cranky…" he paused before changing his words in confusion to them both, "Why are those logs moving?"

It wasn't logs that revealed themselves, it was alligators, particularly since they froze while seeing the one they were on was one as well, "I got dibs on the big one," he pointed out to them all, and they proceeded to move from the chomping teeth they had.

Tiana heard a yelp from hearing Morgana falling into the water and was worried since it seems she didn't get back up, dived, and saw she was struggling to at least swim in fear while her new eyes glowed as well, and passed out while she grabbed the child and found shortly an entrance to a hollowed tree nearby and went up and into the hallowed part within, and started to panic while inwardly thanking Sunset on showing her this as practice: She proceeded to do the safety procedures to get Morgana to breathe.

"Come on," she stated to herself while pushing gently on the child's chest yet saw she didn't cough up water and inhaled air before blowing it right into Morgana's mouth, "No… Come on!" She did this a few times before Morgana commenced to wake up and cough the water out of her lungs and looked to be weak at the moment while glancing at her in confusion for a few moments until she realized what happened and before she could thank her, they heard a thud.

Recognizing Morgana was ok, she went to the hole and gazed down to notice Naveen escaped the alligators while whispering loudly to her while eyeing her warily, "Psst! Lower the vine."

"Find your own tree," she declared plainly to him as they started to see the Leading Alligator heard her while gesturing at the tree, "There he is!"

Seeing this, Naveen soon declared out of panic and tried to make a deal with Tiana, "All right. Look, look. Help me get out of this swamp, and once I marry Charlotte, I shall get you your restaurant." Tiana debated yet made her choice shortly with her imaging what they said about them both and grabbed a vine to which Naveen grabbed and was soon hoisted up by her, "You're going to taste so good basted, battered, and fried!"

Ignoring the comments of the alligators, Naveen perplexed Morgana while she shivered from being wet still and saw Tiana blush at his words with her eyes also narrowing, "Well, Waitress, looks like we're going to be here for a while. So we may as well get comfortable." She then slapped his face to get him to groan in surprise and pain by her as she then told him firmly, "Keep your slimy self away from me!" He noted once again while making Tiana roll her eyes and walk over to check Morgana over as he followed her, "I told you, it is not slime! It is mucus… Is she ok?"

Tiana was discreetly surprised by the tone he used, and shrugged as it seemed her eyes were dazed as if she was having a flashback of sorts, "No clue, this is a first for me." Naveen guessed what was wrong instantly and told her, making her look at Morgana now in sympathy, "Seems she was put into the trauma of sorts… Trauma only those experience in the meanings of torture have gone through."

Comforting Morgana while glimpsing it was late, Tiana sighed while noticing a spare blanket-like leaf oddly sufficient within the log and covers Morgana with a few of them while grabbing one for herself, told the Prince to make him blink yet shrug to himself, "I suggest that we get some sleep if we're going to get you back."

Later on, Tiana was worried as she thought Morgana was having a nightmare yet blinked as her shadow came alive and inwardly groaned as it was trying to say something along with something else the Shadowman may have done, but it then silently sighed before getting an idea and started making shadow-like images of her as a frog, opening and closing her mouth, and the words "La La" were coming out.

Understanding that, she sang a small lullaby her mother used to sing to her and after that, saw Morgana settled while making her eyes go soft as the child curled up to her, and then blinked as she saw Morgana's Shadow waved at her with glowing-amber orbs before returning to normal. "Just one of those days," Tiana expressed as she then closed her eyes while sleeping as well.


Early in the morning as the sun was rising, the next day:

Tiana woke up when the light from the hole hit her face, and saw in confusion where she was before it all came back to her, yet she stilled as Morgana sleepily sighed while innocently laying next to her. She is cute when she sleeps, I give her that. Tiana thought while trying to not wake her, and saw the coast was clear.

She then decided to build a raft while letting playboy and the child sleep a bit more and found all the materials within ten minutes, and an hour after that made a raft.

Tiana then got a mischievous idea thanks to her new friends and Morgana and tossed a stray, floating acorn with odd luck right into the hole and hit a slumbering Naveen's Head who woke up, and headed over to the hole and saw Tiana on the raft, "Rise and shine, sleeping beauty! Gators are gone." He glared at her before blinking and glanced behind him at beholding Morgana sleeping still while oddly sucking on her tail, "Can you get Mary for me? She can't swim and I don't want her to get wet again and get sick!"

Shrugging as if that was something simple, he grabbed her as he does discreetly to his little brother and she yawned as he gulped by her teeth yet then settled and snuggled into his hold to roll his eyes. Just like him, he mentally noted while concerned as, despite all this time, Morgana confidentially has always been kept as a light-weighted child.

He then adjusted himself while easily landing on the raft, and placed Morgana on the fluffy part of the raft as she kept sleeping peacefully and locked with her left leg a few times and he saw Tiana's amused look to him as he asked in confusion, "What?" She only shrugged her head as she proceeded using the stick she found to aid her while he, in turn, grabbed a spiderwebbed limb from the nearby branch and was using it like a ukulele in a few strokes before Tiana stated to him, "We gotta get back to New Orleans and undo this mess you got us into."

"I was not the one parading around with a phony-baloney tiara," he then told her with Tiana groaning before notifying and hoping he would at least help her steer, and he was playing the small branch with Jazz Music of sorts, "I could use a little help." She without her knowledge had her left eye twitching as he told her with a fake glance of being sorry before resuming as both humans turned frogs not detecting an alligator coming from behind, "Oh! I will play a little louder," and he does just that to stir Morgana slightly and with her mumbling before then going back to sleep.

"How about a little less picking and a…" Tiana went wide-eyed while stopping the raft and with Naveen pausing and saw her gaze, and turned before leaping up to stand and screamed as what rose was a large, overweight alligator taller than a grown man with olive-green scales, dark green spines, and yellowish-green underbelly scales that stretch from his muzzle to his tail tip. He contains large rows of teeth in his mouth, some of which stick out even when his mouth is closed. The gator also has yellow eyes, but unlike the other alligators found in the bayou, the gator has rounded, cartoonish pupils instead of the slit shape found in real-life alligators.

This was Louis, and he was, in fact, different than all other gators within The Bayou and was more of an outcast.

Once Louis was raised and the frogs expecting the worst while Tiana grabbed a sleepy Morgana who woke halfway up and was confused, until she saw Louis and stiffened until he unexpectedly expressed to them all loudly, "I know that tune! Dippermouth Blues!" And he commenced to play his trumpet he kept ever since he was little, "Play it, brother! Oh, yeah!" Naveen then proceeded to join with the gator with his smaller instrument before hopping into Louis' head and he exclaimed while gently circling in excitement, "Where you been all my life?"

"Where did you learn to play like that?" Naveen states to Louis as Morgana was less fearful immediately while seeing he shrugged while twirling his instrument as he told them in honesty, "Why, The Bayou's the best Jazz School in the world. All the greats play the riverboats. Old Louis would give anything to be up there jamming with the big boys." At the end of his words, he gestured it as if it was truly a big thing.

"Excuse me Mr. Gator, but why didn't you?" Morgana curiously implored Louis to make him blink at the child as he shrugged, and then acknowledged to them, "I tried once…"


(Flashback Begins)


Louis jumped up to the boat while they were distracted and dancing/playing Jazz Music on an average yet fancy riverboat, and once he goes in and played, they stopped and were stunned at seeing a Gator play, they did the one basic thing: Shoot first and ask later.

Louis jumpers off the boat with those that had guns at the time, trying to shoot at him.


(Flashback Ends)


"It didn't end well," he told them while noticing his look, he was humiliated at that. Tiana then gently patted Morgana on the back as she sat down, and Tiana then gave Louis a grateful look of sorts, "Uh-huh. It has been a real pleasure meeting you, Louis. And thank you kindly for not eating us, but we best be on our way."

"Where... Where y'all going?" He asked as he was about to play his trumpet while standing up on the ground yet he was abruptly curious, and Tiana glimpsing he was just that told him then while trying yet failing on moving the raft as it seems it was stuck slightly, "To find somebody to break this spell."

Perplexed, he then inquired them all curiously once again, "What spell?" Seeing that Louis was still perplexed, Naveen then tried to tell him as he leaned on his frog-like knee on the padded part of the raft and was amused as Morgana tried helping Tiana yet made a cute, angry-like pout at that as her left eye twitched, "Brace yourself, my scaly friend. We are not frogs. We are Humans… Well, I and the other are, the child just simply shrinks to our size."

At this, Louis laughed at them all as if he was joking yet not hearing anyone laughing, expressed to them in a bewildered yet mixed serious tone, "Y'all serious?"

Naveen nodded as Louis came over as introduced himself and the others… Well, to his words at least, "I am Naveen, Prince of Maldonia," Louis looked to be excited at that before his gaze was filled with slight disappointment about Tiana, "And she is Tiana, the Waitress, and the little girl is… Uh, what's your name again?" Morgana blinked at that before acknowledging to him and made the two males blink, "Morgana Potter-Evergreen. But I tend to go by Mary as I preferred that then my true name, it's a mouthful." Only nodding to that, Tiana huffed at Naveen in disbelief as she heard him whisper loudly at Louis then more about Tiana, "Don't kiss Tiana, otherwise you won't get your spells away."

"Now, just a second. This goon here got himself turned into a frog by a Voodoo Man, and now…" Tiana proceeded to rant or explain to Louis, and they all turned to him as Louis gasped lightly and started to state fearfully, "Voodoo? Like the kind Mama Odie do?" That confused the two frogs, "Mama who-dee?" Naveen asked Louis as the Gator nodded while correcting/gesturing to them, "Mama Odie. She the Voodoo Queen of The Bayou. She got magic and spells, all kind of hoodoo."

"Could you take us to her?" They both asked at the same time before glaring at each other to make Morgana giggle, and Louis only gasped with fright at them before expressing a mix of both fear and exaggeration, "Through the deepest, darkest part of the Bayou? Facing razor-sharp pricker bushes and trappers and hunters with guns? No." He then laid on a shaded tree while he started to play a sorrowful tune of sorts with his Trumpet he picked up after explaining things, he dropped it.

Seeing this, Naveen made a wait-here motion while telling the two females, "Watch and learn," when he walked over to Louis, Morgana whispered to Tiana who held back a chuckle by her innocent question, "Watch what?"

Once Naveen was over there, he began to 'Convince' Louis then as he softly played his trumpet while glancing at him, "Louis, it is too bad we cannot help you with your dream. If only you were smaller, less toothy," at those words he proved his point by Louis' sharp teeth he had before continuing, "You could play Jazz to adoring crowds without scaring them." At the end of Naveen's words, he paused and stared at him as he walked back into the raft while he finished his words to the Gator, "Anyway, enjoy your loneliness, my friend."

"Cute, but it's not going to…" Tiana commenced stating smugly mixed with doubt to Naveen until he waved at her to oddly wait for it, and wordlessly gestured behind him smugly for a brief moment at Tiana's look of brief surprise on her face as Louis indeed came back, and declared openly to them all, "Hey, guys, I just had me a crazy idea! What if I ask Mama Odie to turn me Human?" At the end of his words, he danced on his toes in excitement.

"Louis! You are a genius!" Naveen states as Tiana shortly grabbed Morgana who went wide-eyed as Louis declared a loud 'Hallelujah', and ruined their raft while she helped the once again wet child onto Louis as he proceeded to sing.

When he sang, they landed on his belly while making swirling ripples as he went while he played his instrument before doing so.

Louis: "If I were a Human Being. I'd head straight for New Orleans~. And I'd blow this horn, so hot and strong! Like no one, they've ever seen!"

At the end part of his words, Morgana yelped cutely while glimpsing her shadow chuckle at her as they moved to his tail, before landing on a 'Rock' as he swam-stood on the water and wiped the water with weeping willow leaves the swamp had in some tree close to him as he held his trumpet still and singing his heart out to them, dancing and blowing his trumpet at the end of his words.

Louis: "You heard of Louis Armstrong? Mr. Sidney Bechet? All those boys gonna step aside when they hear this old ex-gator play~. Listen! Oh, yeah!"

While Louis played, Naveen grabbed another branch that was spiderwebbed as he lost the last one and played with Louis as Tiana only shook her head, and Morgana and the two frogs saw they were on a turtle who woke up sleepily at them in confusion before they all glanced up as once again, Morgana was grabbed by Tiana as Louis swirled on a flimsy branch before landed near them in the water.

Yet when he raised himself near some plants, they were on the turtle still as oddly enough, the turtle was on his head while he sang still.

Louis: "When I'm Human as I hope to be~. I'm gonna blow this horn till the cows come home, And everyone's gonna bow down to me~!"

They landed on a soft lily pad as Louis made Morgana giggle lightly as he was pretending he was in a crowd while thanking them before they hopped back onto him as he was in the water again. Then Naveen commenced to sing while on Louis back and with Morgana's magic helping the turtle out of his 'Hanging Predicament' Louis placed him on as well as she forgot to bring her wand with her this entire time, and was by mere instinct of feeling sorry for him.

Naveen: "When I'm myself again. I want just the life I had~. A great big party every night! That doesn't sound too bad."

When he sang, however, he grabbed and tossed flowers as if they were confetti falling while purposely staring at Tiana who crossed her arms while not looking at him in amusement, then two different colored butterfly-like ladies began to appear where he said, and then on each side of them blonde-like ones as well that danced with him while in mid-air as he vocalized/played/danced.

The butterflies also danced while in the air to make patterns as well alongside Naveen as he sang which made Morgana awed, and Tiana roll her eyes at the Frog Prince.

He jumped on a lily pad nearby, however, to do that part before landing on Louis' head and sliding on his tail while playing his instrument still.

Naveen: "A redhead on my left arm~. A brunette on my right~. A blonde or two to hold the candles. Now that seems just about right? Eh, Louis? Life is short. When you're done, you're done. We're on this earth to have some fun, And that's the way things are~!"

Louis: "Tell it, brother!"

Naveen: "When I'm Human, and I'm gonna be~. I'm gonna tear it up like I did before. And that's a royal guarantee~!"

"You are getting married!" Tiana reminded him while he shrugged and remarked to her then to make Tiana roll her eyes once again, "Oh, right. I'll just have to leave a string of broken hearts behind me!" He made the two red and brown butterflies blush as he did a kissing gesture to them as they giggled while taking off.

Tiana shook her head and commenced to sing while replacing his branch-like instrument with a guiding stick as Morgana only watched as it was placed in her hands, strung it a few times to get intrigued by it, and sang the beginning part to Naveen mostly.

Tiana: "Your modesty becomes you~, and your sense of responsibility. I've worked hard for everything I've got. And that's the way it's supposed to be~!"

Naveen broke the stick and started oddly enough, using Louis' tail-like ridges as drums as Tiana grabbed another stick and was privately amused as Morgana tried to play the instrument yet only made it dingle odd notes with each stroke.

As she was guiding them as Louis was too focused on his trumpet playing, she saw incoming stumps and guided them to safety.

Tiana: "When I'm a Human Being~, at least I'll act like one~. If you do your best each and every day. Good things are sure to come your way. What you give~ is what you get~. My Daddy said that and I'll never forget. And I commend it to you!"

Louis then stood partially up as Naveen was on his tail, Morgana near Tiana on his back, and just tried to play the instrument to this time amuse them all at how hard she was trying as they sang together, and then separately after, and with Louis playing his trumpet after he sang.

Tiana, Naveen, Louis (Same Time): "When we're Human~. And we're gonna be~!"

Louis: "I'm gonna blow my horn!"

Naveen: "I'm gonna live the high life!"

Tiana: "I'm gonna do my best to take my place in the sun~!"

They then got stuck on a stump-like hole with Louis, and Tiana grabbed Morgana who held her instrument gently yet firmly as Naveen with the two frogs singing, tickled Louis' Gator nose with some old leaves and he sneezed while shooting them like a rocket of sorts farther away and stopped before landing in the water, and landed back on a lily pad before getting back on Louis' back.

"Naveen and Tiana (Same Time): "When~ we're~ Human~!"

After a few moments, Naveen gave the child a glance with the three privately wincing as she kept getting the tune wrong for the last five minutes until he had enough, "Hang on," he discreetly didn't see Tiana glance at him in secret surprise while grabbing the item from Morgana and stroked it a few times and showing her how it worked as her eyes slightly glowed with excitement at watching him play and handed it to her while making Morgana look slightly nervous, "Ok, now your turn."

Looking at the instrument in her hands, Morgana sighed before trying slowly as Naveen showed her, and it was somewhat improved before a few more minutes of encouragement, started to play it naturally, "Yes, there you go… You seem to be quite the natural, child." Naveen noted while admitting it and rubbing her hair, and made her tint at the attention she was getting while discerning the look on Tiana's face, and told her with a shrug, "What? I was just trying to get the child to learn more with aid." Tiana only declared back to him as he rolled his eyes, and laid back by listening to the child play, "Uh-Huh, sure."


La Bouff Mansion at this point and time:

News spread slightly of Morgana's missing whereabouts while Sunset and Adagio as they wore their one set of clothes from before, and even Eudora was worried as Tiana was also declared missing as well.

Freddie, however, was still being watched over by the two teens as well, and presently they were placing poster's around the area near the Mansion itself.

Inside the ground of said mansion, however as well, Charlotte was mixed feelings between knowing Tiana and Morgana may have been taken, but at this moment, her feelings were for 'Naveen' as he made a picnic around their personal pond-like building they have (don't know what it's called, sorry). And she decided to apologize to him as he only nodded to her in reply, "Prince Naveen, dear, I am positively mortified you had to endure that frog fiasco last night."

'Naveen' or otherwise Lawrence, decided to state back in kind while snarling like an animal to get her to do the same a few times, flirting as well, "Well, when you're next in line for the throne, you're poised like a panther, ready to expect the unexpected." After a few times, however, Charlotte noticed something was wrong with 'Naveen' left ear as it puffed up slightly, and gestured it along with wording it, in concern, "You're ear?"

"What… Oh!" Lawrence states as he leaned and checked to see that the blood was almost depleted within the Talisman, and shortly raised as Charlotte was about to see what was the matter by leaning to him and he made an excuse as she smiled hesitantly at while also gesturing it within his seat, "Those pesky mosquitoes. They're everywhere. Please," here Lawrence moved her to the middle of the area and commenced to speak his mind as planned, also clearing his throat before doing so, "Miss Charlotte, I can no longer ignore the throbbing of my-" he glanced as they heard an odd swelling sound from where his behind was as he stated to Charlotte to keep her attention to his face, "Heart. Even though our time together has been brief, it's been heavenly!"

"Land sakes, Prince Naveen! You got me blushing like a…" she was surprised as Lawrence hid his face in her summer dress she wore today which was a long yet light-pink with white flowers on it as privately, his face was back to normal of sorts, "Would you do me the honor of becoming Princess of Maldonia?"

Charlotte froze at this briefly while expressing to him in a tone that she wanted to be sure, since it was her dream after all to be a True Princess, "Are you serious?" Though when she spoke, she moved away from him as she was only half-confused since he raised his shirt over his entire face except for his eyes, and raised his hand in fake honesty, "Like the plague."

"Yes! I most definitely will marry you!" Charlotte told him while he was hugged on the railing the small building had while she mainly commented to herself as when Lawrence leaned, he gained his fat figure back without her noticing a thing at all, "There's so much to plan! I mean, the guest list, the dress, the music, the flowers, the shoes…" he ducked behind the table while looking at her excited face since she was in "Dream Mode" and kept talking to herself as he only shook, "We're going to have ourselves a Late Mardi Gras wedding!" She then left.

Lawrence sighed before he gasped as The Shadowman came over and gently grasped the Talisman in his right hand while asserting a firm no, to himself as Lawrence fully became himself once again, "What do we do now?" Lawrence asked in worry to him.

"Because somebody let our Froggy Prince go, Larry," Lawrence flinched at that as he thought Dr. Facilier was going to slap him, yet didn't, "I'm reduced to asking for help from my friends on the Other Side." Dr. Facilier discreetly and mentally was worried as he was in debt already by the Talisman and decided to take a gamble in Fate by trying to increase it with his own offer, later on.

With Sunset and Adagio as Eudora volunteered to watch Freddie since the poor girl was tired from walking most of the day as it was also at this point getting late, at this time, sighed while holding hands.

Sunset and Adagio accidentally kissed each other after getting knocked over by a runaway cart and ended up feeling a spark of sorts along with their eyes glowing briefly that Adagio was familiar with, and even though it made Sunset ponder this, were Soulmates with each other.

They were now taking a small break within a nearby café, and sharing a small meal between them as despite what Adagio professed it wasn't a date, Sunset privately was touched as she paid for the meal, and the setting was perfect as one.

"Do you think Mary would be found in time for Charlotte's Wedding?" Sunset asked her new girlfriend as Adagio only shrugged her shoulders as the rich blonde did tell them a few hours ago that, primarily they had half-enjoyed themselves while also looking for Morgana generally today, "It depends if she either shows up or is found, My Blaze," Sunset blushed lightly at that recent nickname Adagio has been calling her sometimes as she snuck in a gentle yet mixed lover's, wary-like kiss on her lips to make Sunset know she too, was worried about Morgana.

They jumped, however, as a woman approached them and they both blushed at the figure she had while wearing a pure-white, full-bodied cloak of sorts, and sat down nearby while claiming gently to them, "Perhaps this child you're looking for is closer than what you think?"

Adagio narrowed her eyes at the stranger as she ordered some iced sweet tea for herself, and made her glance as she was getting a book out with them seeing her hazel eyes oddly glowing at her in mixed emotions as she revealed to oddly enough, have a delicate-looking yet wise face for around the age of near twenty-two, "Who are you if I might ask?" The woman blinked before gently chuckling at them, and waved her hand as if she was asked this a lot, "I am famous in certain things, child, but most importantly I have been shown to give wisdom every now and then to passerbys."

"That did make sense, but still… You didn't tell me who you are," Adagio articulated to make her blink before shaking her head as if she forgot, "Forgive me, my name you two is Sofia Athena Minerva, but you may call me Sam if you desire."

Sunset felt it was rather strange someone with that weird of a name appeared rather in a time they needed, yet she shrugged while confessing to her their problem, along with their worries as to what their friends would think.

"That is rather an unsettling situation you two told me," Sam told them with eyes thinking already while digesting their words, and informed them in honesty then, "Perhaps you would explain your situation to your friends or kin, and they would understand… But for the missing child, that is primarily up to her as from the way it sounds, she is being tested."

Now that made them suspicious while she paid for their meal she ordered as the talk took at least twenty or so minutes, "Tested by what?" Adagio firmly inquired as Sam sighed while deciding to tell them, with her closing her book that discreetly stated "Fantastic Beasts, and Where to Find Them, by Newt Scamander"(4), "Possibly by someone powerful enough to conceal her from you, as you two have shared some time with the child. I can tell by the way you sounded as you cared for her." That made them think while Sunset asked her then, "By powerful, who do you mean?"

"Oh, you will meet her in due time, Sunset and Adagio, but I think this is where we part until a later date," Sam states to make them glance at each other before turning back to her and was astonished she was gone.


"Now, this restaurant of yours, is it going to have touffe?" Louis asked Tiana after she mentioned it to the Gator while Morgana listened alongside Naveen as the child was solely gazing at the scenery while doing so and her tail gently swaying back and forth in utter trust on Louis' back.

"Jambalaya, Gumbo. It's going to have it all," Tiana admits as she sat near Morgana as she seems ready to pass out yet was staying awake, "I've always wanted to try Red Beans and Rice, Muffulettas, Po' Boys." Naveen chuckles at Louis before notifying him as he eyed the scenery as well, "Stop, Louis. You two are making me so very hungry." He added Tiana to which she rolled her eyes at while personally was amused.

It was here a few mosquitos passed by and his tongue came out a few times while being curious, "Interesting," his tongue flickered still and decided to act on the urge and went into the water to unexpectedly startle Morgana wide awake as she and Tiana stared while Naveen went after the group of mosquitoes immediately, "What are you doing?" He did only a shushing motion while telling her softly yet loud enough to hear him, "Shh! You are frightening the food." He sent his tongue out yet missed while tripping, and it wrapped briefly around his face before he fixed it, and expressed mainly to himself with a laugh, "This is harder than it looks."

Tiana chuckled at this with Morgana only being confused and saw a lightning bug or firefly pass by while landing from being an hour later at dusk, on a lily pad with a flower on it near shallow parts of the swamp.

Without indication, Tiana's tongue flickered to get her to gasp and mainly state to herself, "What? Oh, no. No, no, no. There is no way I am kissing a frog, and eating a bug on the same day." Except it seem her tongue had other ideas as it was forcing her off Louis and to where the firefly was.

Morgana held in a yelp as Louis moved them both to shore and she got down as she wondered where Tiana and Naveen went, and they went through some bushes before Louis stated then while she blinked at the weird sight, "Y'all find anything to eat yet? Oh, my." They were tongue-tied to each other. "Hang on. Old Louis got it covered," the Gator then states with two frog's eyes going wide as what he intended to do, "No, no…" "Don't…" they told him as he only made it worse as their frog tongues wrapped them up in a weird way to describe things. "How's that?"

"Things could be a little better," Tiana states with a muffled tone of sorts that was easy to understand and Louis was then thinking to himself before getting an idea, and told the two tied-up frogs, "You know what this needs? A sharp stick! Be right back." When he left through the bushes, he was scatting or singing to himself.

"Are you two wrestling?" Morgana innocently raised a question while tilting her head to the left and made both frogs while tied up, blush lightly for a few brief moments before Tiana explained to Morgana hastily to assure her, "No, no were not. Just tied up due to being it playboy's fault." If Naveen could, would be flabbergasted, "My fault? My fault…" he started struggling like she was as he continued to strike his case at her, "Let me tell you something. I was having a wonderful time until…" "Coo! Well, looky here!" Morgana perked up with the two frogs glancing to see a firefly that she knew without having to remember things. He was a very small and slender Cajun-raised firefly, holes on his wings, red hair, very few teeth.

This was Raymond or Ray as such, and she saw him gaze at the two frog's predicament while noting then to then both, "Girl, I guess you and your boyfriend got a little carried away. Am I right?"

That got them both to tint once again with Morgana tilting her head the same way while her tail went into a question mark as Tiana and Naveen commenced to deny that rapidly while tied-up still, "Oh, no, no!" "Do not be ridiculous!" "He's not my boyfriend!" "I am the Prince of Maldonia!" Ray rolled his orbs while declaring near a tree, "Let me shine a little light on the situation."

He then proceeded to try and light his behind before excusing himself to them all after he farted, and continued to do so until it lit up briefly before dimming and turned it like a lightbulb to a lamp of any sort, and it shined brightly. "No That's more better. Yeah," he saw Tiana glance at him warily as he then told her assuredly, "It's okay, baby. I don't explode. I ain't no firecracker! I just got my big butt glowing!" At his words he batted it as it glowed a little brighter and went back to a normal a few times to prove his point before continuing, "That's right! The women like a man with a big back porch!"

"Lord, you done this up real good, for sure." Ray told them while inspecting their tongues, and found one to follow as he noted mostly to himself, "Now where this goes to at? Hang on, Cap. I'm just going to give a little twist here. We're getting to know each other now!" He then proceeded to sing to himself a song Morgana was unfamiliar with as he shined slightly while trying to detangle both Tiana and Naveen like a disco bulb, and after a few unusual mechanical sounds, he came out with one of their tongues while finishing his song of sorts, and they became untangled while landing in their behinds to get Morgana to laugh at then briefly before blinking as Ray finally noticed her yet shrugged.

"It's about time I introduce myself," he began while using his butt to light up the sky with his name, "My name Raymond, but everybody calls me 'Ray.'" He then floated nearby them as Naveen admitted in curious honesty as Ray chuckled as if expecting that, "Pardon me, but your accent, it's funny, no?"

"I'm a Cajun, brah. Born and bred in The Bayou," he paused before asking them curiously then, "Y'all must be new around here, huh?" Naveen nodded as Tiana saw Morgana's Shadow raise to realize she wasn't at all imagining things and leaned while whispering to her as Morgana giggled alongside Larxene strangely finding this part of Morgana as a new roommate, funny, and glanced as Naveen then responded to the firefly, "Actually, we are from a place far, far away from this world."

"Go to bed! Y'all from Shreveport?" Ray told them as Naveen only shook his head while clarifying things to him, "No. No, no, no. We are people… Except the child is another human-like race of sorts." Tiana came over while making sure to decipher things better as Morgana saw Ami dismiss herself as within her ring, Yidhian tried everything to get herself out as the bizarre, magical barrier was nothing like she encountered before giving up and concluded whoever blocked her this time, would hopefully either release it or someone else would. "Prince Charming here got himself turned into a frog by a Voodoo Witch Doctor."

"Well, there you go," he told them as if that explained things very easily, "And we were on our way to Mama Odie's. We think maybe she can-" Ray interrupted Tiana at that point while stating to her then in disbelief, "Whoa, whoa, whoa. Mama Odie?" Seeing she nodded a 'Yes' to him made the two frogs be puzzled at his next set of words with suspicion, "Y'all headed the wrong direction, Cher. Now what kind of chucklehead told y'all to go this way?"

It was at this odd point of timing that Louis came back with the stick, and even declaring it, "I found a stick!"

"Louis," by the tone in her voice he dropped the stick, and stared on nervously, "Ray here says you've been taking us in the wrong direction." Louis indeed chuckled nervously at them all, and proceeded to make gestures along with making excuses, "I was... Well, listen. I was confused by the topography and the geography, and the choreography and…" Ray shook his head while winking at them while realizing what Morgana was, "The first rule of The Bayou, never take direction from a Gator."

Ray then whistled in a specific direction as a huge amount of fireflies began showing themselves by their lights and fascinating the four. "Why, me and my relations will help show y'all the eway." He then headed to a few cousins while seeing they grabbed instruments and stuff, he came back while telling mostly Tiana as well, "Come on, Cher! Just follow the bouncing butt!" He then began to sing while all his relations danced along with guiding them as well.

Ray: "We're gonna take you there. We're gonna take you there. We're gonna take you all the way there~. Gonna take you there. We're gonna take you there. We're gonna take you all the way~."

Morgana saw Louis dance while she followed Naveen and Tiana as Ray kept leading along with his kin, well... Down the bayou, and through some upward-like rooted trees, they then went through a log that Louis got stuck at as Ray kept singing. It amused Morgana, however, as he still danced while following them.

Ray: "Goin' down The Bayou. Goin' down The Bayou. Goin' down The Bayou. Takin' you all the way~."

Ray then declared while introducing some of his kin to them while using a bug as a accordion, "We got the whole family. There goes Mimi, Cousin Beaudreaux. Oh, Grandmama! Your light out!" They heard her hum, before clapping as it came on, and Ray still sang. Even as they stopped and showed them the way with glowing rings of fireflies within the darkness, and Tiana and Naveen hopping on lily pads as Morgana was able to follow them.

Ray: "We all gonna pull together. Down here that's how we do. Me for them and them for me. We all be there for you. We gon' take ya. We gon' take ya. We gon' take ya all the way there! We know where you're goin', and we're goin' with you. Takin' you all the way~."

Morgana laughed a little as Louis acted like a captain as he slid through the water until some of the fireflies left him, and he sank into the water. They then were led through some dandelions and a clearing while Ray finished his song, Louis fell in some fireflies and looked like a dancer before they floated off him, and led them onwards.

Ray: "Goin' down The Bayou. Goin' down The Bayou. Goin' down The Bayou. Takin' you all~… Yeah, you know! Come on, y'all! Keep that line flowin' and the lights a-glowin'!"

They then rode Louis down the water while they followed them and seeing Morgana was tired, Tiana let the girl rest on her as she did a cute yet teethed yawn, and started sleeping as Ray came over while asking her in a hushed voice, "She's a cute youngin' now is she for a Chaosarinian, huh, Cher?"

That made Tiana look at him in bewilderment as Naveen widens his eyes while gazing at Morgana in a new perspective as if he too realized what that race was since this was the first time he heard of this, "How do you know about Mary's Race?"

"By Mama Odie, Cher. She saw them all down in The Bayou… Now, let's keep on movin' and follow the bouncy butts!" Ray told her as they did just that.


Dr. Facilier's Residents, at this point and time:

The Shadowman was now wary while playing it cool as he was talking to Zandalar and his fellow Voodoo Masks presently, and his hat off with respect while they narrowed their eyes at him by his words, "Friends, I know I'm in hock to y'all pretty deep already, but seems our little Froggy Prince lost his way... And I need your generous assistance getting him back."

Now they narrowed their eyes further at him at this before he responded to them with a brief laugh, "I hear you! Now, what's in it for y'all?" He started to unravel his big plan to them which intrigued them all, Zandalar primarily, "Well, as soon as I dispose of Big Daddy La Bouff and I'm running this town," he laughed while making in the ground the city of New Orleans with a Voodoo Doll with a red heart on its chest of Eli, before cupping said fake city into his hands as there were smaller, tiny, illusions of people in it while they were doing whatever they do each day, "I'll have the entire City of New Orleans in the palm of my hand. And you'll have all the wayward souls your dark little heart's desire."

He blew through the fake city as they became, well, ghosts of sorts, and flowed right into the masks to then make them a whiff and gained grins on each of their faces, and this made him laugh while noting to them at the obvious, "Y'all love that, don't you?"

Dr. Facilier then blinked as Zandalar then gave him a stare to then make him be puzzled, "Why do you want the child as well?" Looking at the Leading Mask, The Shadowman chuckled while setting to them as if he just realized it as well, "Of course! She has potential, she is a Youngling of that race after all, and… Hmm? You're Boss your secretly betraying wants to meet her once we have her?" Seeing the other Masks staring at the Leading Mask in stunning looks, it only grinned at Dr. Facilier as he in return shrugged while acknowledging in reply, "Sure, why not. After all, she is rather interesting to possibly teach alongside my own Flesh and Blood... In which she is to stay out of our deal. If we have it that is?"

The Masks glanced at each other before seeing the Leading Mask gaze to the left as they only grinned and so did the right, and the Leading Mask then opened his maw wide as a large group of Shadow Demons of various races privately took as forced debts or former employees to their cause, showed up.

Dr. Facilier then laughed in excitement while telling mostly to himself, "Now we're cooking! We're going to find ourselves a frog and child!" That made them blink before glancing at the Leading Mask briefly as if this guy was for real which only narrowed its eyes to make them wilt, and gazed back at the Shadowman (who didn't see that) as he continued his words, "Search everywhere! The Bayou, The Quarter. Bring them both to me alive. I need mainly the Froggy Prince's heart pumping... For now." He then did some French Words of sorts as they then took off.


An hour or so later, Back with Morgana and the others:

"I'll take them the rest of the way," Ray tells his kin as they proceeded to leave while Morgana tunes them out while trying to stay awake before she nodded off, and woke up when she saw they were walking again and she was being carried by Louis, and heard Ray state to Tiana in a tone she recognized as true love, "...My girl? Ho, ho, ho. That's Evangeline."

"Evangeline?" Tiana asked with interest and with Ray having a look that both she and Morgana realized was true love, "She the prettiest firefly ever did glow," he squealed to himself while they were on the move as Louis was privately amused at the Hatchling he felt Morgana was, was listening well, "You know, I talk to Evangeline most every night. She's kind of shy. Don't say much. And I know in my heart someday we are going to be together. Yeah."

"Aw! That's so sweet," Tiana states before giving Naveen a stare with Morgana confused by what he meant while Ray ignored him, "Yeah, so sweet. Just do not settle down so quickly, my friend. There are plenty of fireflies in the swamp." Tiana groaned at him while he stated the word, what, before he got slapped in the head by her while he yelped and Morgana giggled as she thought it was funny.

Not comprehended to them, there was movement in the bushes behind them as Louis almost dropped Morgana yet was thankful he didn't as it would have broken her at least by the height he has, "Pricker bushes got me! Gator down! Gator down! The darkness is closing in! I'm so cold." Louis did drop Morgana on the ground gently though as she saw it was only one of those seeds Tiana showed her, and Ray rolled his eyes while expressing to him, "Will you hold still, you big baby?" Ray barely touched it as Louis screamed in pain and declared to him plainly, "I ain't touched it yet."

Out in the bushes, as Morgana found a way to follow Tiana and Naveen, three men showed themselves stealthy as they were currently hunting for food.

The first was a short man that wears a green shirt underneath his brown overalls, has big pointed ears, a brown hat, and goes around barefoot as he held a butterfly net.

The second one was obese, incredibly tall, wears a red shirt underneath his blue overalls, along with a small brown pointed hat, and lastly bald while wielding a baseball bat.

The last man had crimson hair, a large brown hat, a purple shirt with brown pants, and also walks barefoot. He also had two fingers with a wristband on his right hand while he held all the traps.

These were in order: Reggie, Darnell, and Two-Fingers. Oddly, the relationship is like the three stooges yet Reggie is the father, Darnell is Reggie's dim-witted son, and Two-Fingers is the Uncle.

"Oh! Take a look at them two jumpers. I can taste them frog legs already," Reggie tells the two while observing both Tiana and Naveen before shushing his son as he spoke loudly; with the short man thanking inwardly they didn't flee from it, "Bet they taste good with the sauce piquant, right, Pa?" Reggie then hit Darnell on his head with the bat he took from him, hard, while also telling him quietly and ignoring his pain, "Will you keep quiet?"

Two-Fingers then began mumbling as Reggie chuckled while telling him excitedly in agreement, "Oh! My thoughts exactly, Two Fingers. It is time to catch us some frogs!" They all ducked as they proceeded to stalk the two frogs and with them not discerning Morgana caught up to her friends.

Naveen was amused as Morgana panted with a tired yet relieved smile while Tiana only shook her head in understanding as she was clearing the path for them and saw the child wanted to walk, shrugged as a few moments after, Naveen started to talk or exclaim gently to Tiana then while she was still clearing the path, "You know, Waitress, I have finally figured out what is wrong with you."

This peaked her interest as Tiana kept moving stuff away while trying to not get irritated by him, and asked, "Have you now?" She only rolled her eyes and Morgana only blinked at the Prince as he claimed then to her, "You do not know how to have fun. There. Somebody had to say it."

Morgana winced at the gaze Tiana gave him while he didn't see it, and then looked at him smugly as she decided to retort back, "Thank you, because I figured out what your problem is, too." He blinked at her while she purposely had a branch leaned back as he noted to mainly himself in arrogance, "I'm too wonderful?"

The branch then hits him and Morgana giggle lightly as he rolled his eyes at the child while looking at Tiana as she told him then, while using part of the branch to gesture at him, even pointing at him as well, "No, you're a no-'count, philandering, lazy bump on a log." While her back was turned and Morgana helped him up, he chuckled with mirth in his eyes while fake-coughing his next words back at her then, "Killjoy."

Tiana paused while turning to him and asked plainly, "What did you say?" He shrugged his shoulders while telling her then which she shrugged and turned around and only took a few steps as she heard it this time while he fake-coughed again, "Stick in the mud."

Naveen lost his smile while she told him down, and Morgana was gazing at them not comprehending who to support, "Listen here, Mister. This stick in the mud has had to work two jobs her whole life while you've been sucking on a silver spoon, and chasing chambermaids around your ivory tower!"

Once she left while tugging Morgana as Naveen sat down briefly, scoffed as if that was a weak insult, but remarked it to her in correction about her last comment, "Actually, it's polished marble."

It was then things became hectic for the three.

Naveen screamed being startled as a net captured him by Reggie, and commented to the other two as Tiana grabbed Morgana as she quickly hopped on her back and took off, "I got me one, boys! Y'all get that little one over there!" Two-Fingers almost had them yet Morgana's Magic acted up and blasted him with fire to his hat as Tiana took this chance to run with the child or in this case, hop away from the hunter while he put out his hat rapidly.

Angered that his favorite hat immediately had a burnt mark on it, he soon grabbed his daggers and tossed them at them only for him to yelp as a barrier touched them, made them glow, and sent them right back while hitting all over a tree he led them too.

Meanwhile, with Louis and Ray, the firefly finally got the seed out of Louis' finger and he held in a muffled yelp of pain from it yet noticed firstly before Ray did of Reggie in a boat filled with three shotguns, and exclaimed before dive-bombing into the pricker bushes, "Hunters with guns!"

Ray rolled his eyes while doing a double take at immediately seeing Reggie holding Naveen in the butterfly net while freaking the Prince out by his words to him, "Look at them big frog legs. I want me some cornbread with this dinner!" Ray then charged right at Reggie and flew into his nose and allowing Naveen to easily escape while expressing to himself aloud, "Oh, no! A bug got to do what a bug got to do!"

After a few attempts, Ray was shot out by force into a nearby rock and landed into the water which Louis saw and dived in after him, and admitted by licking it briefly, "I think I done chipped my favorite tooth."

With Tiana and Morgana, they were running from the two hunters while they froze at seeing Darnell looking ready to clobber them and Two-Fingers still chasing them, "Here I come, Two Fingers! I'll help…" Darnell told his Uncle while he then slipped and Tiana went wide-eyes as Morgana pushed her out of the way as she flew into the air and she landed in a covered area while also gazing on in horror as Morgana was caught within an iron cage as Darnell being dimwitted, only shouted out to his father loudly, and grabbed it as Two-Fingers raised himself and followed his Nephew back to the boat and Tiana hopping behind them discreetly in quick movements, "Pa! We got one!"

Morgana tried to escape before Two-Fingers quickly sat down on it and made her whimper at her idea turning sour as he mumbled for her to shut it, and Darnell exclaimed in a curious question to his father as he was steering the boat, "What happened to yours?" He was whacked on the head by him while feeling him to be quiet.

Naveen raised from the water after being near yet far away to not be spotted, laughed while staring to himself in a small jig, "Free!" Yet he was frozen in stunned alarm at discovering Morgana whimper as her hands burned her when she touched the cage walls and was then bumped into by Tiana who saw her look, and stared at the boat with a crazy idea.

Tiana seeing his look, held onto him as he shot his tongue and it hit the back of the boat he was excited at first before realizing his quick idea turned sour as they were shortly being sent to the back of the boat while causing a thud and getting the three male's attention.

"Pa, did you hear that suspicious thud?" Morgana saw Tiana then while doing a shushing motion as she guessed Naveen's plan as he shortly hopped and hid under Reggie's hat as he responds while taking it off with Naveen also scratching his head while the man was scratching his back, "Yeah. I sure did."

Two-Fingers and Darnell seeing the frog, grabbed their bat and shotgun to whack it off Reggie's head without telling him yet he saw and claimed before he was indeed whacked, "What are you two gawking at?"

Naveen kept landing on Reggie's head as Darnell kept missing, and Two-Fingers saw he had enough, poked his Nephew while moving the shotgun to Reggie's face with Naveen seeing this, hopped down to the floor of the boat while he aimed at that part, and Reggie states on a panic, "No, no, no. No, you idiot, not there!" Tiana landed on Darnell's head next and Naveen back on Reggie's as they initiated a cycle that made Morgana laugh at watching them hitting each other just like The Three Stooges (5), while the two frogs had fun doing this.

After a few minutes, Naveen got with Tiana's aid, Morgana out of that trap while she hissed at being burned each time the iron cage touched her skin.

The two saw this as her burns were not fading from her like Tiana learned from her regeneration ability, and saw the messed-up family of sorts as Reggie states from both Tiana and Naveen agreeing as one by his comment, "These two ain't like no frogs I ever saw. They smart." They were then showing wide eyes in panic at Tiana as she acknowledged them next in mirth to herself largely, "And we talk too!"

The three men screamed while Naveen grabbed a weak Morgana while landing on some rocks, and saw Darnell take off rapidly with the boat at fast speeds as if it was a jet boat, away from them.

Naveen discovering Morgana looked exhausted and weak, intimately touched Tiana as she allowed her to climb into his back as they proceeded to look for Ray and Louis, in which at this point, Louis was using a bamboo stick he found to give Ray an air tube version of CPR and succeeded while asking him in concern, "You alright there, little bug?" Ray whiffed yet waves his hands in front of his face as Louis rolled his eyes at the firefly's comment to him, "I'm fine. But your breath done near kill me to death."

Louis then pointed to the center of his body's chest while Ray saw a pricker bush seed, and inquired about hesitantly, "Would you mind?" Seeing no problem, Ray does it while stating to him then, "I got you covered, brah." Once he got it off the gator, Louis was grateful while thanking him, "Much obliged, peewee." He then turned while hearing Ray groaned, "Now how about the other side?"

With Naveen as Morgana went to sleep on him, proceeded to talk to Tiana while they walked near wild food and swamp grass in a clearing, as he was discreetly impressed by her as not comprehended to him, she tinted lightly while hastily covering it up, "'And we talk, too.' I like that. You are secretly funny." She decided to answer back with him shrugging as she spoke playfully that is, to him, "Not a stick in the mud? Say it. Say it." Naveen began to dent it at first, "Well, I wouldn't go…" he saw her expecting stare while sighing and gave her a look of being joyful slightly, with a few other feelings as he secretly had a great time with Tiana, "All right. You're not exactly…" "I can't hear you. I'm sorry. What?" Tiana held up her hand to her ear to amuse him while he admitted to her as she smiled back, ".. a complete stick deep in the mud."

They then saw that Ray was extracting a lot of seeds from Louis and was muttering to himself as with each pull, the reptile yelped in small pain and then noticed the three as Naveen places Morgana gently on a bed-like mushroom of sorts further away from others, "Cher, I know we gots to get Mama Odie lickety-split, but this particular stratification is going to take a while. Yeah."

"Poor Louis," Tiana states in sympathy to the gator while Naveen sighed while glancing around for a spot to relax as Louis spoke to Tiana then while realizing they were all hungry, "You know what would make me feel better?" He screamed as a seed got taken out before resuming, "Crawfish smothered in remoulade sauce- Mercy! With some Bananas Foster sprinkled with Pralines- Oh, Mama!"

While she multitasked at listening to Louis and saw the food, she checked each one till she found a suitable yet hard/sturdy wild pumpkin while asking aloud to them all then, "How about some Swamp Gumbo?"

"That will do," Louis told her while he then screamed once again as a seed was once again removed from him.

"Sounds delicious. I'll start with a pre-dinner cocktail and something to nibble on while I wait. Thanks," Naveen told her as he placed Morgans down cowboy as she soon rolled her orbs as he sat near a mushroom while using a spare leaf as a napkin on his lap, before glancing at Tiana in sudden confusion by what she instructed him as she tore a leaf and tied it around her waist like an apron, and hands to him at the same time, a sharp, knife-like rock slab, "No, no, no, your Royal Highness. You are going to mince these mushrooms."

"Do what?" Naveen stuttered to her as she leaped to a nearby pepper plant and told him again, "Mince the mushrooms! Hop to it!" He then held the two objects while not understanding what to do and pointed out to himself, "Little ridiculous." He discreetly jumped as Tiana shouted back to him, "Are you mincing?"

"All right! Relax." He told her to which he felt she was satisfied while curiously poking the mushroom piece with the slab, and while he decided to do so and recalling some servants at his home doing it when he was little while hearing humming from Tiana, he exhaled deeply cutting a single large piece of mushroom on a rock slab nearby, "One."

He looked at seeing a flash of sorts and saw Tiana had the pumpkin and everything prepared like a Gumbo Pot and saw him struggling the entire time as she remarked to him, "Step aside, Mister. Watch and learn," she grabbed the knife from him as he expressed in small amusement back, "Oh! All right." He was shocked with awe as she soon chopped it up like a true chef would and commenced to move his arm and hand while making him hold the knife as she also has a second mushroom on hand, and showed him, "There you go."

While she was walking away from him, she heard Naveen speak while she was setting up the Gumbo Pumpkin Pot to her in honesty, "You know, I've never done anything like this before." She only responded to him then while multitasking and her tone in confidential disbelief he locked up on, "Really?" He shrugged while talking to her still, "All right. But when you live in a castle, everything is done for you. All the time. They dress you. They feed you. Drive you. Brush your teeth."

"Oh, poor baby," he nodded while telling her then, "I admit it was a charmed life until the day my parents cut me off, and suddenly I realized I don't know how to do anything." He then slumped on his left elbow while staring as if he was somewhat overwhelmed by what he has been through.

Watching this along with the Gumbo was fine, she came over while tossing a small piece of mushroom at him while admitting he did well for a beginner, "Well, hey, you got the makings of a decent mushroom mincer." He perked up at her words, however, while asking her curiously, "You think so?" She only nodded as he followed her to the food pot cooking, "Keep practicing and I just might hire you." He seemed excited about that while asking her then, "Really?" She then jokingly remarked to make him groan at her then, "No."

"Come on! What was that? That was below the frog belt," he expressed before hearing whimpers coming from Morgana in small pain while they saw her unconsciously touch her one right arm that had a burn from the cage, and Naveen saw a plant similar to his homeland they used oddly enough, here: An Aloe Plant.

"What are you doing?" Tiana asked curiously as he grabbed the plant while admitting since he found a seeded shell large enough to pulp the plant, "I've seen the healers do this for my brother back home. Oddly this plant is used to heal scrapes and whatnot as he is a mischievous thing."

That made Tiana shocked as he then went over to Morgana and placed the aloe on her, and saw her sigh with relief eventually, "I didn't know you had a brother."

Naveen only shrugged while applying the aloe on the other spots Morgana had while examining her yawn and lightly gulped at her teeth yet shook his head while finishing on her right cheek then, "There is little besides what I told you to what you know, Waitress."

Tiana shrugged while heading back over to finish the food as Naveen sighed, yet blinked at oddly seeing Morgana's Shadow rise up and tilt her head innocently at him, and he inwardly freaked out as it grabbed the remaining aloe and placed it into a mouth a demon would have with two rows of sharp teeth within the mouth that was sorta human, and then spit it out in revulsion as he learned just then it might be the child's shadow, but it was innocent, "Ha, that tells you to not try things without asking."

Naveen didn't expect the shadow to glint her orbs and spat the aloe into his face, and shortly dived back into Morgana as a regular shadow before he could retaliate back.


Meanwhile, within The Bayou area where it all started, an odd-like Cat Shadow Demon was searching as told by Dr. Facilier along with a female-like Shadow Demon who sighed. It gave her a look at the fellow demon in understanding as she was tricked into servicing Zandalar in her world before it went away, and her friends and allies she made, along with those she befriended with their kids, were turned into two separate gems: One lavender with sky-blue spots and the other red with orange zigzag marks and was saved by the entity yet as a price for nearly seven years presently, as a Shadow Demon.

Said female demon oddly resembled a long-haired banshee mixed with secretly, battle armor of sorts, and when she rose she had two different colored glowing eyes: Her left eye glowing a pure green and her other a pure yellow.

Before she could shriek in the answer about her problems they froze while encountering balloon fragments and detecting three energies from the remains, which were mixed, yet the Cat Shadow Demon: Serah, shrieked out loud to attract the others while they heard her and then followed her to where they are possibly at within the swamp.


Morgana made all four adults (well two human-turned-frogs, a gator, and a firefly) gap with Tiana giving the child sevenths from her appetite as Morgana giggled while also gently thanking her since she woke up near Swamp Gumbo's completion, at Ray's joke to everyone… Even if she didn't understand most of it till the end, "... You going to see a blind nutria. You say, 'Hello', and he say 'What?' And you say, 'That's an ugly fish.'"

"Anyone for seconds before Mary eats it all?" At this Morgana tinted to get soft chuckles from everyone while Naveen got up, and handed his bowl to Tiana while also noting in honesty to her, "That was magnificent food you made! You truly have a gift." Though what he didn't realize was Tiana hid a blush while feeling touched at his words as to her, they were not at all a trick and were truly honest words, and commented back to him in kind, "Why, thank you."

They all then turned to Ray as he then gasped while gazing up at the starry sky, and declared in a lovestruck tone to them all, "There she is. The sweetest firefly in all creation."

"Evangeline?" Tiana asked as she and Naveen landed on some lily pads that were close to each other as they saw Ray was floating up in the air while staring upwards still, and Louis was finishing his Gumbo off as he started with him licking his fingers to primarily Ray yet declared aloud for everyone to hear him, "I want to meet this girl. Where she at?"

Morgana though glanced at them especially Louis by what Ray's answer was to them as he gestured upwards at the brightest star: The Evening Star that is, while lovestruck, "How you can miss her? She glowing right up there in front of y'all." He then commenced to sing while intimately commenting about him and his starry girlfriend, and both the frogs.

Ray: "Look how she lights up the sky~. Ma belle Evangeline."

While he was singing his butt glowed while making to them, a heart of sorts, with the star being in the center of it yet Louis started to state to everyone in disbelief, with a laugh at first, "That ain't no fire-" he gave the child a glance as her tail whacked his hand slightly hard as she was also listening to Ray singing, and Louis just shrugged as he watched as well.

While Ray sang his song, he marked a nearby tree with light for his and the star's first letter of their name with an arrow in the center.

Ray: "So far above me, yet I know her heart belongs to only me~."

Morgana was confused as he started to sing in French briefly yet was thankful for Naveen to translate for them and with him not knowing he was turning his head to a bewildered Tiana as he was translating right near her face, "I adore you. I love you," he saw her stare and hastily saved himself while glancing sheepishly to her, "I'm just translating."

Ray: "You're my queen of the night. So still, so bright. That someone as beautiful as she~. Could love someone like me~."

Naveen had a gentle idea as it seemed like a perfect time for Tiana and made her confused as he lifted her while making them stand on their hind legs, and made her eyes wide by the position they were in and hopped to a connected nearby lily pad and confessed before doing so, "No. I don't dance."

Ray: "Love always finds a way, it's true. And I love you, Evangeline~!"

Naveen gave Tiana a gentle yet understanding look from recalling her background briefly as Ray sang to them all his singing, however, and heard Tiana state to him softly while looking away, "I never danced."

He gently startled her, however, as he easily pulled the stem of her lily pad to his, gently grabbed her, and made her stand once more in a position while not knowing her heart oddly thumped within her chest as well, "If I can mince, you can dance."

As Naveen aided Tiana to dance with him before she got the hang of it, Louis got his trumpet out and was aiding Ray in blowing into the instrument gently as both he and Ray gave each other a knowing glance as Morgana was on the gator's head while feeling warm oddly enough in her heart at watching her two friends dance.

While Louis still played and gently moved from side to side, Ray went to the lily pad flowers that both frogs landed nearby and touched each one to make them glow before taking off slightly, and the two then jumped into the water to water-dance now, and the light (thanks to Ray once again) began changing into different rays of light within the water upon them in two different colors: To either Pinkish-Red and Teal, as he sang still with a soft look.

Ray: "Love is wonderful~. Love is everything~. Do you agree?"

Morgana shrugged to herself as she was just watching as Louis placed her down while blowing his trumpet still by lowering himself, and sat on a lily pad as the singing and music was ignoring her fear of deep water at the moment, and heard Ray sing in French once again yet just listened.

Naveen then leaped out of the water with Tiana in a dancer pose while in the air, landed on some swamp grass that descended them both gently onto a lily pad as they danced still, and Ray was still singing and with the child figuring he was near the end of his song while watching her two friends dance.

Ray: "Look how she lights up the sky~! I love you, Evangeline~!"

As Louis got done playing his trumpet, and Ray stopped singing, Naveen had Tiana lowered to the point of Ray's Star was easily shining in her orbs and he felt his own heart oddly thump by her looks and they looked to be nearing on kissing each other yet paused, and shortly moved away from each other awkwardly as Tiana hesitantly admits with Naveen giving her a mixed stare of being surprised with something else, "Ah! Lottie's getting herself one heck of a dance partner... We, ummm… We best be pushing on."

Naveen sighed while catching a glimpse of Morgana oddly realizing something he didn't, patted her friend's back as he was discreetly surprised she was ignoring her fear while looking at him softly, and seeing his treatment was also working on her burn marks… To make him wonder how they were healing so fast, and before she could say anything they were both unexpectedly grabbed by their shadows with Ami becoming aware yet was innocently confused while shrugging as the banshee-like shadow separated Morgana from Naveen as they both shouted in exclamation, further out.

Naveen was straight with a few other shadows joining the one that had him, and Morgana's capturer to the left without any others joining them.

Naveen was dragged by his own shadow as the others pursued him through the land and swamp to which he held onto dear life for the last ten minutes of being taken and onto a stray tree limb with said Shadow Demon (if it could roll its eyes at him), and had help with another at yanking him away from it as the others neared, and was about to leave until it got blasted and so did the others; one by one, until there was none left.

They all stared into the mist at what they thought was a giant person with a large club coming to them yet it turned out to be a small, old woman.

She was of course a short woman with dark, wrinkly skin. She also wore a white dress and turban, black sunglasses, gold earrings, a gold necklace, a gold bracelet on her right hand, a blue ring on her left hand, and lastly was barefoot.

"Not bad for a 197-year-old blind lady," she declared mainly to herself to get Tiana and Naveen to blink at her age in shock while she blew the odd item in her hands as if it was a gun before using it as a clutch as she chuckled to herself, and then signaled to them firmly yet gently, "Now which one of you naughty children been messing with the Shadow Man?"

It was here that Tiana then was worried and she asked Naveen as Mama Odie acknowledged what was going on yet didn't want to interrupt, "Naveen… Where's Mary?"


Moments ago as Morgana was taken away from Naveen's side within The Bayou:

Morgana while split from Naveen, was taken by the odd female Shadow Demon and found ruins of a structure of sorts that the female Shadow Demon fled into with the child.

The structure oddly enough, resembled a secret yet hidden temple of sorts with moss, vines, and damaged debris to tell a battle long ago or forgotten may have occurred with signs showing this was once a sacred place. Even if there were some skeletons showing from the earth to understand they were either slain or worse and went deeper to where surprisingly, old torches that haven't at all been touched in ages were still lit.

Morgana was scared while hiding behind an old stone statue as the Shadow Demon herself didn't understand why she took the child and not followed her orders to bring her to Dr. Facilier, but she strangely felt the urge to do this as by her face and hair primarily, she looked familiar.

The Shadow Demon felt bad oddly enough as from Morgana, she was crying and sniffling until Ami showed up and surprised the female Shadow Demon as Ami comforted the child while giving the female Shadow Demon a curious yet firm stare.

The female Shadow Demon approached as for some reason, she didn't want to see Morgana at all crying over something she did, and before she could touch the child in her dark-like cold of comfort as all Shadow Demons could only do as their shrieking, is words, Ami grabbed her and Morgana blinked as Ami detached herself and judo-flipped the female Shadow Demon to stun them both as dark and silver energy traveled from Morgana's Magic briefly into her, and the female Shadow Demon became solid and discreetly, undoing her curse placed by Zandalar for her forced services.

She was immediately back to her normal self with her memories of her living life abruptly springing back, alongside her undead parts before being into service unwillingly to Zandalar.

The Ex-Shadow Demon now was a twenty-one-year-old woman while being around 5'5 feet tall and having a decent yet slender/curvaceous frame with a large E-Cup-sized chest and with two different colored eyes (her right eye is yellow, the left green) and short red hair in the front and also black hair in the back with one strand that sticks upward. She also has a horizontal line of stitches that appears below her eyes and just above her nose that extends across her face and more being seen throughout her body as well.

She, however, wore a uniform comprised of black boots, black gloves, a black jumpsuit, a brown belt with two yellow bags on the sides, yellow shoulder pads, a yellow vest, and yellow arm guards with metal plates on her elbows, and metal knee guards.

This is Zombina (6), and discreetly the missing younger sister of Sirius Black, Bellatrix Black, Andromeda Tonks-Black, and Narcissa Malfoy-Black that (as a price still), has not at all recalled her first name and is by magic known as Zombina Hades Black, and due to the weird silvery glow that shortly covered the child and her frame, her Godmother once again by Sirius (back then), since she went missing a few months after Morgana was born.

Zombina blinked while beholding to her shock her stitches dissolving while feeling at the same time, her heart thumping once again while feeling the toxic solution and venom becoming one with her as if it was her actual blood, and froze at detecting the details largely of Morgana's face, eyes, and hair to realize one thing to still and make the child and Ami blink warily at her with hints of startled confusion over the nickname she gave her personally back then, "Bright Eyes? Is that you?"

Sighing by Morgana's half-scared and immediately confused stare, Zombina chuckled while softly grinning at her then and slowly approached her as well, "You were very young back then to possibly not recall me. I was your aunt by all but blood, but I was also declared your Godmother in case Big Brother couldn't take care of you."

That stilled Morgana with Zombina realized her Godchild was changed by blood and magic into a newer race she somewhat recalled reading about, and she allowed the former undead woman to hold her as Ami sensing she could be trusted, went back to a shadow while watching still, "Oh Morgana, what happened to you, sweetie?" Zombina's look was that of concern while her grin was lost as the child only cried while hugging her.

Zombina then blinked as her Godparent Bond then sent Morgana's current life through her very vision in moments, and gently hugged her a little harder while inwardly, she was seething mixed with being regretful as Zombina comprehended she just recalled everything thanks to whatever the child did to free her, but she was on assignment a few years ago in England and was near that spot as well while undead, and could have done something to prevent her Godchild's abuse. Dumbledore will have to answer why he placed her there when those Dursely's were not part of the will I aided Lily with back then.

While comforting her Godchild, she saw her other friend that came into the room and was stunned and shrieked at her quietly to get her nod in understanding as while on the Other Side, Zombina told the fellow female Shadow Demon, Kuroko, she felt incomplete most of the time, and this was the reason why.

Kuroko ended up as a cat version of the Shadow Demon Race due to being a Nekotama originally and prayed to anyone to save her little sister from the illness that was catching on back then… Yet was answered with a price, and when she died, she became as such: Body, Soul, and everything else into this form, and Serah were for a lover yet was killed before she got a chance to confess her feelings to him, which she arrived as well and was told things within a few minutes.

"Hehe, now this is rather interesting, isn't it dearies?" A gentle yet amused female voice stated to Zombina to glance and see Mama Odie, alongside the others gapping at seeing a strange woman comforting Morgana, and two Shadow Demons not at all bothered by their presence yet was wary of the Light-Based Voodoo Priestess.

Mama Odie while blind could easily tell by their auras of the mood, and nodded to get the frogs to gap at her for, "Bring the little one with ya dearie as it seems she possibly won't respond at the moment while in such a sad state of things."

That made Zombina blink and knew who she was from the other Shadow Demons, yet nodded reluctantly as she carried Morgana easily since she was her full size, and Morgana was still the size of a frog while seeking her for comfort, and walked alongside the Voodoo Priestess as they eventually not too long after, came to her home within deepest yet darkest part of The Bayou, was in a huge tree.

The tree resembles that of a cypress tree (which are commonly found in swamps). Hanging along the various branches are massive threads of Spanish Moss. Along the tree, beginning at its lowest points and just above the waters, are a series of steps leading to the boat, which resembles an old, damaged, Canadian boat made of worn wood. Also hanging along the branches are various, colored bottles.

Once inside, the boat they saw had various artifacts and knick-knacks, bottles, barrels, nets, ropes, a bell, lanterns, masks, as well as certain material presumably belonging to the boat, such as a steering wheel and anchor, to name a few. At the center of the boat is Mama Odie's large throne of sorts, resembling rattan woven chairs. A few steps away from it is Mama Odie's cauldron, which is actually a bathtub. Along the ceiling, like the outside, are various bottles that are used as lanterns to light the large room. Waxed candles melted onto the branches that have grown into the interior of the boat are also used to light the home.

Zombina held onto Morgana still as she fell asleep yet they were all puzzled as she went to her shelves while Tiana decided to state kindly to her in which she was multitasking for a specific yet easy task, "We're so glad we found you, Mama Odie. Ray and Louis here have been telling us all about you. We've been traveling quite a long way, and you can't imagine what we've been through. And we…" Tiana shivers while they approached what appeared to possibly be Mama Odie's eyes and false or real teeth in jars that were eyeing them oddly enough. Tiana soon gulped while she proceeded to continue her words while seeing the Shadow Demon Cat was laying down on the wall's shadow of a table nearby, "And we heard you-" "Juju!" Mama Odie states firmly while not realizing she was interrupting Tiana as a slender, lime-green snake with dark yellow spots on the back, light pink eyes with red slit pupils showed up shortly.

"Come on over here, you bad boy. Give us a little sugar, now." Mama Odie states with a laugh before they made faces as she kissed the pet snake, and heard Louis gag before she pegged his head and states while petting the snake's head gently while adding onto her words before using him as a cane, "Y'all just loves your mama, don't you?" They saw her frown though while 'Looking' at the shelves and magically knowing where the solution was, stated aloud to herself while using Juju as a cane still, "Now where can that jar be? I know I had it somewhere."

Juju knowing what she meant at seeing the child's state grabbed a jar in shape of a triangle oddly enough, and handed it to her as Mama Odie petted him again before he was used as a cane while walking, "Thank ya Juju… Good to see you again, Ray. How's your Grandmama?" She then asked the firefly while heading to her throne. "She's fine. Got in a little trouble for flashing the neighbors again," he told her while flying next to Louis as Mama Odie chuckled to herself before stating and sitting on her throne while trying to relax, "Oooh, I like that gal's spunk!"

While relaxed and placing the jar on her right side of her lap, Tiana and Naveen hopped onto the left side of her throne's arm while stating their shared problem to her and with Zombina amused as her friend was sleeping yet without her knowing, was gently brushing Morgana's hair while she purred in her sleep as Serah, thanks to Mama Odie freeing her while Kuroka refused, fled, and was shortly caught by a particular man that is going to be involved way later in Morgana's life, "Mama Odie. We don't want to take up too much of your time-" they both blinked as she reached into the pocket of her robes and pulled out a few things, a single piece of candy is one of them, "Y'all want some candy?"

The two stuttered while they declared at the same time differently to amuse the old priestess, "Not really / No thank you," yet they blinked as Mama Odie decided to mess with them and the two not realizing it as she rubbed the piece of candy on her outfit to get rid of the hair and states, eating it while they were repeatedly saying 'No' to her, "Now, that's too bad. It's a special candy. Would have turned y'all Human." While she was chewing it with the leftover teeth she still has, she laughed while telling them then, "I'm just messing with y'all."

That relieved them yet made them puzzled as Tiana then moved forward to ask the old woman curiously, "How on Earth did you know that we wanted to turn back…" they blinked as they saw her sleeping and snoring with Naveen being cautious, tapped her lightly while asking in a mix of disbelief and worry, "Mama Odie?"

Mama Odie soon stood up when she smelt something indeed burning while the smell woke up Morgana while she hid sleepily in Zombina's uniform as her stomach rumbled, "Juju! Why didn't you tell me my Gumbo was burning!"

Louis then noted in disbelief from witnessing things to Ray while motioning and pointing to the floor of the boat, "You sure this is the right blind voodoo lady who lives in a boat in a tree, in The Bayou?" Ray only shrugged yet acknowledged in an assured tone to the gator, "Pretty sure."

Mama Odie ignored their approach as both frogs landed on the cool part of the tub while Zombina brought a sleepy yet hungry Morgana over as Mama Odie states to herself mainly and stirring the tub with a large paddle of sorts, "Can't believe this. Got to do everything around here."

"Mama Odie, if you-" "Taste this," Mama Odie states while dipping her finger into the soup while placing some of it into Tiana's mouth as she did taste it and swallowed with Mama Odie then asking her then, "Well?" Tiana commented to her in honesty then, "Hit it hard with a couple of shots of Tabasco and it's the bee's knees. Now, can we-" "Juju!" Mama Odie declared to her right as on her left side the snake had a bottle of Tabasco and was doing as Tiana advised, and once Mama Odie tasted it, she exclaimed in joy to herself while laughing in glee, "That's got some zing to it! That's just what it needed."

After she chuckled a few moments while gesturing for Juju to give the child a bowl of Gumbo which she was liking, she asked the two frogs, and knowing the child was only caught in the crossfire otherwise she too would have been turned possibly into a lizard-like frog, "Now, y'all figure out what you need?"

"It's just like you said, Mama Odie. We need to be human," Tiana states to her before they heard her scoff while getting up to their faces briefly, "Y'all ain't got the sense you was born with! Y'all want to be human but you're blind to what you need!" Morgana was amused only slightly as she yawned while getting comfy in her Godmother's arms at observing Naveen elected to speak up then to the Old Voodoo Priestess, "What we want? What we need? Is all the same thing, yes?"

The old woman then gently whacked him on the head while declaring to them both, "Is the same thing? No!" She then backed up with Morgana perking a little at seeing Mama Odie looking ready to be singing after she spoke to them, "You listen to your Mama now."

Mama Odie: "Don't matter what you look like. Don't matter what you wear. How many rings you got on your finger."

As she sang, she used Juju as a neck item while gesturing to his sides within her fingers as a featured example to the two ex-humans. She then glanced behind her as Morgana saw pink feathered spoonbill birds sing along with her.

Mama Odie: "We don't care, no."

Birds (Same Time): "We don't care!"

Mama Odie while she sang next petted Juju's neck briefly while fetching a new club, and changed him into an animal before he returns to normal as the spoonbill birds kept singing alongside her as well. She then also commenced dancing with the birds as well.

Mama Odie: "Don't even matter what you are. A dog, a pig, a cow, a goat. Had 'em all in here! And they all knew what they wanted. What they wanted me to do! I told 'em what they needed. Just like I be telling you!"

Birds (Same Time): "You got to dig a little deeper!"

Mama Odie: "Find out who you are!"

Birds (Same Time): "You got to dig a little deeper!"

Mama Odie: "It really ain't that far! When you find out who you are. You'll find out what you need. Blue skies and sunshine Guaranteed!"

She then grabbed a spoonbill after getting permission and used him as a temporary shovel as an example while singing alongside the birds.

Mama Odie: "You got to dig!" (Times two)

Birds (Same Time): "Dig!" (Times two)

While Naveen was dancing like they were and with Morgana only being held back by Zombina as she did tap her left foot to the beat, Mama Odie headed to a stand near him while singing to the Prince.

Mama Odie: "Prince Froggy is a rich little boy. You want to be rich again?"

Naveen nodded at her at this while she sang, and began showering him with tons of gold coins to bury him.

Mama Odie: "That ain't gonna make you happy now? Did it make you happy then? No! Money ain't got no soul~. Money ain't got no heart~. All you need is some self-control. Make yourself a brand-new start!"

She grabbed Naveen and took him near Tiana as she danced with Ray, and sang in an obvious voice to him still. The birds singing still as well.

Birds (Same Time): "You got to dig a little deeper!"

Mama Odie: "Don't have that far to go."

Birds (Same Time): "You got to dig a little deeper!"

Mama Odie: "Tell the people Mama told you so! Can't tell you what you'll find. Maybe love will grant you peace of mind~. Dig a little deeper and you'll know."

Mama Odie then headed to Tiana next to make her pause in dancing and turn her attention to her, "Miss Froggy, might I have a word?" Mama Odie asked as Tiana called her Mam in respect as she picked her up while she spoke to her, "You's a hard one, that's what I heard."

Mama Odie while holding Tiana in her left hand showed her the Gumbo Tub while touching her finger lightly to it within the center for images to show from Tiana's past, and then lightly touched where Tiana's heart was.

Mama Odie: "Your Daddy was a loving man. Family, through and through. You your Daddy's Daughter. What he had in him, you got in you~!"

While singing next, Juju used himself as a bridge while Zombina easily hopped over the gap with Louis jaw-dropping in amazement and she hid a smirk before following the Old Voodoo Priestess to the elevator that the snake was rising and with the old woman still holding Tiana while she and the birds sang, and Naveen following right behind them.

Birds (Same Time): "You got to dig a little deeper!"

Mama Odie: "For you, it's gonna be tough!"

Birds (Same Time): "You got to dig a little deeper!"

Mama Odie: "You ain't dug near far enough! Dig down deep inside yourself! You'll find out what you need!"

Birds (Same Time): "Blue skies and sunshine! Guaranteed!"

Mama Odie after she sang her order gently to the birds, moved away while revealing from the break of dawn the many, many bottles in different colors within the tree itself lighting up within it into a beautiful display as they were nearing the end of their words and with Naveen mostly impressed by Tiana as Morgana liked the song, but liked the display of colors more to amuse her Godmother.

Mama Odie: "Open up the windows! Let in the light, Children!"

Birds (Same Time): "Blue sky and sunshine (X2)!"

Tiana: "Blue sky~ and sunshine~!"

Mama Odie and Birds (Same Time): "Guaranteed~!"

Now Mama Odie gently expressed to Tiana as she hopped down from her hold and onto a branch by asking her the question gently to her, "Well, Miss Froggy, do you understand what you need now, Child?" Though she shook her head with the birds looking disappointed by her answer and Morgana only shrugging to amuse her Godmother as Kuroka just woke up at the end before going back to sleep, below them. "Yes. I do, Mama Odie. I need to dig a little deeper, and work even harder to get my restaurant."

Ray tried to sing to get them to get encouraged, yet he shortly gave up as the birds were leaving and they saw Mama Odie gazing at the two frogs then while feeling determined, with them all heading back down then afterward nearby her Gumbo Tub, "Well, if y'all are set on being Human, there's only one way…" once at the tub and using her magical club to stir it, she chanted gently then, "Gumbo, Gumbo in the pot. We need a Princess, whatcha got?"

Morgana cutely tilted her head while observing the Gumbo Tub and they blinked while seeing her briefly before it shifted to Lottie in a few moments due to age, and saw she was sleeping/snoring as well, "Lottie? But she's not a Princess-" "Hush up and looks at the Gumbo," Mama Odie interrupted Tiana to get the two frogs to realize while noticing Eli La Bouff was wearing a King's Outfit as he shouted, tada, to his child while she stared happily while wearing a crown, "That's right. Big Daddy's King of the Mardi Gras Parade… So that makes Lottie a Princess," Tiana then conceded to everyone.

"Does that count?" Naveen asked before they blanched by Mama Odie's words next, to them, "Yes, it does, but only till midnight when Mardi Gras is over." Hearing Naveen exclaim in his home's tongue, Mama Odie proceeded to decipher the two while recalling the jar she had on her person still in which she had in one free hand as she used her club from the other to show a demonstration within the Gumbo Tub, to them, "Hop-along, you only got till then to get that Princess to kiss you. Once she does, boom!" She chuckled as the images showed them both becoming human and also affirmed it as well to them, "You both turn Human!"

Tiana realized her words once more and declared to everyone, "Midnight? That doesn't give us much time at all!" They then saw Mama Odie gesturing for Morgana to be lowered with Zombina reluctantly doing so as Naveen asked the Old Voodoo Priestess curiously while making the child drink the jar and with Morgana shivering in being disgusted yet finished it off like she was told, "What did you give the child?"

"I only gave the little one the antidote of her Size Curse you two placed on her," Mama Odie states with them beholding Morgana's Magic acting up and once she sneezed, she grew instantly with a golden glow to her normal size and secretly making Zombina pout at not being able to carry her anymore like a babe to Mama Odie's chuckle while gently patting her back, "There, their dearie. I think you may have more time on your hands from now on."

They turned to Louis as he then started asking Mama Odie, to her ire and Morgana's light giggle as she held Zombina's hand gently, "What about me, Mama? I want to be Human, too, so I can play Jazz with the big boys. I want fingers and toes and a belly button… Not the kind that sticks out but the kind that goes in-" he was grabbed by his maw from the Old Voodoo Priestess as she expressed to him gently, "Jabber Jaws, you dig a little deeper, you'll find everything you need."

She then turned while shooing away them gently as she has a few projects to do, "Come on, come on, come on. There's a lot of river between here and New Orleans. Y'all best get to swimming." She was shoving Louis to prove a point yet he held up a claw with a grin on his face, and stated to them all, "Wait! I got a better idea."


After some trekking and odd outcomes as Zombina carried Morgana on her back, they managed to get on the boat Louis recognized was heading to New Orleans yet they went separately to cover the grounds: Louis, Ray, Tiana, and Naveen on the back part of the boat for cover, and Zombina and Morgana on the front.

"Auntie Bina, why we wearing cloaks again?" Morgana implored quiit next to her as they were within a crowd Zombina knew Kuroka went back to tell a lie of sorts as to her disappearance to the Head Voodoo Mask and stated Serah was dead, "So in case there are enemies on board they won't try and either take us or worse, Bright Eyes," was all Zombina told her gently while swiping a danish treat from the buffet table and gave it to her Godchild while taking one for herself as she understood she was truly alive thanks to Morgana and was loving the taste of food once again.

Morgana only nodded while eating her treat fully before she jumped yet relaxed as Tiana looked amused while also glancing apologetic, and Zombina also looking on in disbelief at the crowd believing it as Louis was playing his trumpet within the band that was dressed as animals.

After some time as it was coming upon the point, the sun was setting, Morgana was reluctantly out of her Godmother's sight as she told her to stay hidden yet saw Naveen coming while doing something and she then looked apologetic while glimpsing he must have snatched food from the buffet table as he minced it yet startled him, "Oh, it's only you."

Seeing her gaze, she looked excited like Ray was earlier as he explained to her things while also showing the ring, and Morgana to confuse him, looked to be thinking yet made a wait here motion, and headed back to the buffet table and back after getting a peach for him, and he shrugged while she guessed from the way he was preparing some of the food, "You're mincing?"

"Yes child, I am… Does it seem to be improved then last?" Naveen answered her while asking after, and Morgana nodded her head a yes to him as he then noted in relief, "Good." He looked at her then while she was impressed by the ring he had in the chestnut, "You think Tiana would like it?" Morgana nodded her head with a smile as he smiled back at seeing she was happy for him, and he saw the daylight fading to know he had to get ready, "Wish me luck, Mary, as I plan to propose to Tiana."

He then hopped away from her as she saw the setting over the swamp and despite it looking lovely of sorts, she sighed while looking to her left, and her right, before she decided to sing to herself and not comprehending not only Zombina was listening but the Shadows still working for Dr. Facilier as they found the group yet were impressed by her words, especially Xion wherever she has felt her little sister's words as well, and others also she would meet eventually.

The song she was about to sing, was a song that she knew by her heart, mind, and soul, and all one of few that is as this song she thought was made up, yet later on, would realize that what she knew it since birth, would be important later on.

While Morgana was singing she didn't realize her magic was acting according to her voice and was also being watched while hidden by a man in a cloak that was interested in her for specific reasons.

Morgana: "From the Light within My Heart, I tend to be clean~. But from the Darkness I sensed is there, nothing can truly compare to what I feel~. To what I know~, would collide with the world around me."

As Morgana walked, the mentioned elements briefly showed off a golden aura, and a dull-silver colored one covered her frame lightly as she was dancing lightly to herself and was even climbing and dancing on some boat chairs before leaning on one of the columns on the boat itself and was glancing at the clear view of the setting sun over the water.

Morgana: "When the Light of day has ended~ and Darkness truly descends~, I plan to be there when I am needed. To when I am prepared to see the Light within the Darkness~, and the Darkness within the Light~!"

As Morgana was dancing, she didn't realize she was off the boat yet her magic made her dance within the air and even adjusted her area slightly to provide the theme within her song as illusioned stars showed while with each step, she was to be shown to be dancing on night-like water of sorts with gold and silver ripples moving within each step.

Also while she danced, the music from the song, Sanctuary (7), began to play within the background (just the music at the start), and as she danced Morgana didn't see shadowed forms dance alongside her.

They were forms that she has yet to encounter mixed with those she has, and dancing with their loved ones within a large platform while she was within the center, and with each of her steps, Morgana took still doing a ripple effect on the ground.

Morgana: "I know how I feel~... I know what has either has been lost or found, and I choose to to go between the Light~ and the Darkness~ (X2). I know of love~, happiness~, and truth~... I know of hate~, despair~, and the lies~!"

The platform cracked as she fell and Morgana was falling headfirst downwards while balls of both light and darkness were shooting downwards randomly with her having a smile on her face and her tears flowed from her eyes at feeling the familiar presence of loved ones falling with her.

She figured herself after landing on another platform that discreetly held seven hazed images of princesses and with her being within the center of it all, and also showed an aura of both light and darkness on either side of her while smiling, and around the outside was smaller image orbs of those she met and gazed onward and knew to where she hasn't as those orbs landed onto those.

One of the Princesses, however, revealed to be her sister, and some she was puzzled by.

Morgana then resumed to sing and dance after a odd beat was playing that was like soothing drums and others for Jazz, mixed with the music of the previous. As she sang, a similar voice responded to her yet seemed older and more beautiful sounding, singing back alongside her as she sang her heart out.

Morgana: "I will protect~! I will love~, and anything else above. I will be there (X2)... I will be there for those that need me! Those that haven't seen the Light of Dawn~, the Dark of Twilight~, and free them of their sorrow~, of their hate~, of their sadness~ and despair~!"

Not comprehended to her, Morgana's memories of both the good and bad went by her as she danced alongside Ami. Then they were dancing freestyle mixed with others as shadowed images of the others she has yet to meet soon danced alongside her and with Larxene also joining in after seeing she could as Hecate, confidentially, was allowing her to manifest at least to dance.

Morgana: "I bring hope in the Light~ (Echo Repeat Those Words Here Once)! I bring fear to the Darkness~ (Echo Repeat Those Words Here Once)! I plan to save myself, I plan to save my soul, I plan to walk within the path In-Between~ to save my friends (Echo Repeat Those Words Here Once), my family (Echo Repeat Those Words Here Once), and those I love (Echo Repeat Those Words here Once). To those I love~."

The area then started to change back to normal after Morgana did a rapid spin dance and was also at the back of the boat by herself, and the music faded along with the auras as she reflected with feeling two odd rushes of warmth that was familiar, "To those that I love."

She then heard clapping before unexpectedly being wrapped in shadows by Dr. Facilier showing up from the side of the shadowy part of the boat, "Well sung Child. But I decided to take matters into my own hands for you, and the traitor that Zombina woman is," that made Morgana go wide-eyed while struggling before landing on her left side and glared at him and the Voodoo Man bending down and gently caressed her hair while establishing to her then, "You have so much wasted potential then you know what to do with, and specific members of my friends from the Other Side wants you for a particular reason… Anyways," he stood up as his cane appeared, and she alongside him was then taken as Zombina just saw this and hit the former spot of her Godchild in anguish as she got her again to only lose her.

Not realized to them, Naveen was taken away as well.


A few hours later, Inside La Bouff Mansion:

Sunset sighed while her Girlfriend gently massages her hand as they sat on the shared part of the couch as they aided Charlotte is getting ready for her big day, and Freddie was in her usual outfit yet wore a fancier version of her hat since the child refused to change her attire at all, and Sunset and Adagio wore dresses that went well with their looks.

"At least we know from that strange man Mary's safe, My Blaze," Adagio states as Sunset only nodded softly with Adagio giving her Soulmate a soft gaze and making her look at her as, from Sunset, her opinion on things had changed for the better, mostly to what she did back within the concert for Canterlot High dubbed as The Battle of the Bands.

"I know, it's just… Have you felt the connection he said we have with her feeling scared with anger, lately?" Sunset asked as Adagio nodded to her before kissing her gently on the lips as Charlotte overheard this yet thought it was sweet that two girls that had love-at-first-sight, were truly in love with each other like a Princess and a Prince Tale.

The man that Sunset and Adagio encountered while searching for Morgana today, told them things alongside others in small yet brief words before taking off somewhere and was the one to tell them of their bond being Soulmates as such, and their connection to Morgana being as her Magical Mothers to them both.

Sunset although decided to change the subject as Freddie was now in the courtyard, and asked Charlotte curiously as her excuses she kept getting from Naveen made them suspicious, "So he claimed he couldn't see you this time due to traditional wedding parts of his culture?" Charlotte nodded with a dreamy look on her face and sighed, "Yes, but at least my dream is coming true to marry a Prince and becoming a Princess."

Thinking to themselves, they finished seeing that Charlotte was ready, and Adagio suggests while making Charlotte nod in immediate agreement, "Perhaps we should check up on him then as we need to head out soon."

Once at the door, Charlotte knocked gently on it to possibly make them hear the man himself get startled while she declared to him then, "Prince Naveen, darling. You better hurry up. Don't want to be late for our Mardi Gras Wedding."

"Um... Getting dressed! Just a few more minutes, my dearest heart," Lawrence states while privately eyeing through the keyhole while not at all ready, and Charlotte sighed in relief while telling him gently, "Okay, honey lamb. We'll be waiting in the Packard… Daddy, start the car!" She shouted out loud enough for Eli to hear his child as Adagio was going to go alongside Charlotte yet was stopped by her Girlfriend to confuse her yet she made a shushing sound, and they heard the discussion being made then while placing their ears on the door.

"Oh, my heavens, I'm doomed! Ow!" Lawrence started to state to himself until he was smacked by Dr. Facilier and Morgana was also tied up in dark-like tendrils of rope and gave up within her seat while watching them. "No, Larry! I'm the one who's doomed. Unless we get that frog's blood in…" they paused while looking at the fireplace as there was rumbling, and it was snuffed out briefly as the Shadow Demons showed up with Naveen as he grunted while trying to get out of their hold, and one of them shrieked at him as he only nodded, and started to Lawrence mainly while exclaimed a bit as well, "We are back in business, boys!"

"Get your filthy hands off me! Lawrence!" Naveen started remarking firmly yet shocked at the end at seeing his servant as he held that Frog Talisman with the jaw open, and one of the Shadow Demons opening it as at the same time, wickedly grinned while telling him with a gleam in his orbs with a brief chuckle, "Oh, now hold still Your Eminence."

Morgana went wide-eyed as Dr. Facilier chuckled at her look at seeing Lawrence resumed at wearing the Voodoo Item, and then was shortly looking like Naveen in his human look, and declared to her with a grin, "See at how powerful they are, Child? As long as Froggy Prince is ours, nothing can stop The Plan on the action," seeing, however, she wanted to speak, he allowed her to by using the end part of his cane to tap the tendril around her mouth. "Why? Why do all this?"

Adagio and Sunset widen their orbs at hearing Morgana's voice in the room as they heard Dr. Facilier chuckle as inside, he shrugged at her while honestly telling the child and knowing there was nothing she could do, "Mostly the Power of Greed, Morgana Potter-Evergreen," that made Larxene state the word, how, within her mind as Morgana gazed at him in alarm while he chuckled before admitting again to her, with a look, "My friends on the Other Side known who you are, Child. I am only holding you until they want you as such, and in return, this Plan and yourself would cover my debt to them."

Dr. Facilier then glanced at Lawrence while telling him firmly, "You know what to do," Lawrence nodded as he grabbed the box that was on the floor and placed Naveen in it, and then took off with Naveen ranting within it as Sunset and Adagio hid in a hallway windows curtain, and watched with shock as Dr. Facilier walked casually out of the room with Morgana being carried by Shadow Demons, and left as well.

"What do we do Ada?" Sunset states worriedly to her Siren Lover and Adagio growled to herself as her Siren within was ticked their Magical Child was being used by whatever forces the Shadowman followed, "We try and get her back," she only told her Girlfriend in determination as Sunset nodded in agreement while heading out of the building.


Back with Tiana and with it currently being nighttime, she and Ray were confused yet half-worried and also half awed by things presently as Louis went with the band men.

Half-Worried from not hearing anything from Zombina, Morgana, and Naveen to which they figured went ahead to find Charlotte. Half-Awed at beholding the Mardi Gras being shown as they went into the streets to look for them. Ray also told her about Naveen going to propose to her and everything, and wanted to find the fellow former human male, and kiss him.

"What are we looking for again?" Ray exclaimed while they avoided the crowd and not seeing they passed Adagio, Sunset, and Freddie eyeing the La Bouff float nearby before Zombina bumped into them. "You just keep your eyes out for the biggest, gaudiest float with a Mardi Gras Princess about to kiss herself a…" they were astonished at discovering Lawrence as Naveen with Charlotte while on the one float to get married, "A frog."

While hearing The Bishop speak to Lawrence and Charlotte on their vows and whatnot as weddings go, Ray started to state to Tiana while not seeing her leave in distress, "Oh, no. This can't be right, Darling. And how you can still be a frog? Mama Odie, she…" he turned, at last, to see she was gone yet was confused at seeing Adagio, Sunset, and Zombina as they went to an alleyway while Freddie followed them.

The firefly only shook his head as he understood that former Ex-Shadow Demon had her reasons and was oddly thankful for Kuroka showing up, and pointing to where Tiana went, "Thanks, Cher… Wait up, Tiana!"

Ray followed the path into the Graveyard, and found Tiana oddly enough, near a secret Voodoo Mistress' Gravestone by the name of Halabell McGonagall, and landed nearby her on the metal part of the fence while declaring to her softly and trying to assure her, and Tiana glancing at him while wiping her eyes, "I know what we seen with our eyes, but if we just go back that way, we're going to find out your fairytale come true."

"Just because you wish for something doesn't make it true," Tiana told him firmly while upset and heartbroken still yet he then remarked to her while flying next to her then, "It's like my Evangeline always said to me…" "Evangeline is nothing but a star, Ray! A big ball of hot air a million miles from here! Open your eyes now, before you get hurt." Tiana told him loudly while crying still, and hopped away to make the firefly shake his head lightly and glanced upwards to the Evening Star, "She just speaking out a broken heart. That's all that is. Come on, Evangeline. We're going to show Cher the truth!"


In a hidden spot overviewing the Mardi Gras Parade/Wedding at this time, was an expecting Dr. Facilier as close to him was also Morgana, still tied up in ropes as the Shadowman had a Voodoo Doll of Eli La Bouff within his left hand and a large needle of sorts in his right.

While the wedding was still going on from The Bishop still speaking, he turned to Morgana briefly before resuming on gazing onwards with the Shadowman trying to multitask. "Why... Are you… Doing this?" She was weak though as privately, the dark tendrils were making sure she was weak by sapping and allowing her to regain some of her magic to not kill her. "I am doing this for my own reasons, Morgana, and I am indebted to my friends on the Other Side for many things. Things you won't understand."

He was irked at how long the wedding was taking from The Bishop, yet glanced at the tied-up child as she expressed something to only make him ponder briefly at her words, "Well, what… About Freddie? Would… She want… You to do… Do this?" He stared at her briefly with realizing what she meant yet narrowed his eyes and saw her paling even more than her original color to understand he was right, "You know what's been happening this entire time? Didn't you, Mon Cher Peeshwank?"

Before she could respond he heard something and saw to which at the point, Morgana was growing in fear by the stare he had as he dropped the doll and pin at glimpsing Lawrence screwing things up again, and made Morgana yelp as hidden nearby was Adagio, Sunset, and Zombina and secretly Freddie as she was in horror, as he shook her friend before wordlessly followed them as he summoned a vortex as a shortcut made from shadows.

Yet the two were being followed by a red-cloaked man with Greek Runes of sorts on assignment to gather the Shadow Beast for his Master yet knew this would be rather more interesting.

Once Dr. Facilier showed himself again, he was at the back of the alleyway with Morgana and placed her down before untying her and before she could run, tied a small tendril to his right hand to her left wrist, to her renewed annoyance secretly while suddenly feeling better, and stealthily went through the side doors of the church and went inside with the child.

"Lawrence, why are you doing this?" Naveen states to his old servant while he, in turn, glared at him while telling him in truth to get Naveen to be taken aback yet could do nothing about it while looking like his human self, "As payback for all those years of humiliation." He was about to squeeze the frog yet shortly gazed at The Shadowman as he showed up from within the archway from the side door while firmly ordering him and dragging Morgana to make her wince, "Get your royal rump back on that wedding cake and finish this deal!"

Ray saw this as Zombina and Co., wondered where Dr. Facilier and Morgana went yet knew he was close and went into the crowd as a group to look, and realized what the necklace was around Lawrence's neck as he changed rapidly back to an old man when Naveen took it off him and tossed it after The Shadowman declares hastily, "What's he doing? Stop him!"

"Give it to me!" Lawrence declares as Ray only declared to himself and Morgana being able to chew the tendril off and unexpectedly grabbed him after he spoke, and left the building with Ray within her hands, "I've got it! It got me, too."

"Stay out of sight!" Dr. Facilier sternly told the old man who rapidly nodded while kicking a worried Naveen away from him and went after Morgana.

Morgana meanwhile, was moving as fast as she could within the crowd as Ray was like her, troubled as to what The Shadowman would do since she realized she angered him at doing this and was right at recognizing all but Kuroka, chasing after her.

Louis as he was on the one float with the other band-disguised animals, was playing yet noticed them like Zombina and Co. did as he stopped playing and noted in conflict, "Ray? Mary?" The man dressed as a Lion leaned in while Louis looked determined then, "Hey, why did you stop?"

The crowd moved away while Louis roared and heard comments about him being real yet he ignored that as he went after them, and Zombina and co. pursuing right behind him as on the rooftop, the cloaked man chuckled before vanishing as within the crowd a woman narrowed her own eyes and jumped with ease after him.


Tiana was now in the deeper part of New Orleans graveyard they have while feeling down still after last seeing Ray twenty minutes ago, and thought to herself sadly then. Maybe everything I did was for nothing. She sighed before hearing running footsteps and was bewildered at beholding Morgana running with an odd necklace in her hands as Ray flew beside her while she asked aloud as well to them, "Ray? Mary?"

"This proves what we saw ain't what we thought we saw!" Ray told her as Morgana handed the Frog Talisman into Tiana's still confused hands as she asked only dumbly to then mixed with being cautious from the fear they had on their faces, "What is it?"

"It's a Voodoo Hayacall. The Shadowman, he been using it for the…" they froze at hearing familiar shrieking way behind them to see from Morgana's and Ray's eyes that they were alarmed from the demons catching up, and he told the two shortly as Tiana was soon grabbed by Morgana and the child ran while within her hands after he spoke, "You can't let Shadowman get this, no matter what! Now run, girls! Run!"

Morgana ran as fast as she could with Xal'atath in her right hand as tears were forming within her orbs at realizing his fate yet gave Tiana a glance later about her weapon that remained silent for once as they were cornered and caught by a man.

The man was wearing an oni facial mask that was blood-red and had amber eyes that looked like cats and spoke deeply with a chuckle then and even as he wore bronze armor resembling tigers on the shoulders and the design as a knight, "The Master would be interested in taking you in, Chosen Child."

He was shortly hit with a object that bounced off him, and turned to see Zombina glaring at him alongside the other three girls as Freddie's hands had glowing-like shadowy hands to then make him chuckle and stare to briefly stun them yet resume their stances, "A Former Undead, a Siren, A Sun Flare Alicorn, and a Shadow Succubus? My… What a haul I would get as I, Ragis the Mythical Hunter would benefit from this." He then saw the weapon then and added onto his words next, "Even the fabled blade herself, this is getting interesting."

Still glaring while Morgana backed up slightly while hearing the Shadow Demons behind them, he chuckled before he sent an odd black wave around from his body to send them away into some gravestones and knocking Xal'atath onto the ground as she complained about it, and declared while heading over to Morgana firstly with a grin hidden within his oni face mask, "Your Race was requested primarily by one of my clients anyways due to your blood… But I have a better-paying client that wants you anyways, and the extras I immobilized would be solely profit as-" he soon moved while feeling someone sent an energy pulse at him, and he growled at the woman that showed herself.

She looked to be sixteen, despite being tall and around 6'2 in height, had a slender frame with at least a perfect DD-Cupped sized chest with her outfit going well with her figure. Said outfit, however, was a high-form fitting leotard that was crimson red and revealed some of her hips and thighs with a zipper revealing some parts of her perky chest, and she also had a bronze skin tone with her having crimson hair with natural silver streaks, low-heeled boots matching her outfit, and golden-slitted eyes that were narrowed while growling at him with her weapon she has aimed at him. It was a dark-steel scimitar-like Blade with a reverse grip.

This was Maria Maxwell (#), and she was recently hired to deal with oddly enough, Ragis and her client said to also stop his plans at any cost.

"Take the child and go. I have an old score to settle with the so-called Mythical Hunter," Maria firmly told them as Ragis narrowed his orbs in hate at her while Morgana went with Zombina and Co. alongside Tiana as the two began to fight.

With Morgana and the others hearing fighting by how far they went, she ended up getting split from them while gripping her friend's weapon in comfort and holding Tiana within her left arm and hand from glimpsing the Shadow Demons holding off her Godmother, Sunset, and Adagio within the large graveyard.

"Miss Tiana… Are we safe?" Morgana asked while taking in breaths as she resealed her weapon back into herself and with Tiana worried about the child that refused to put her down at all for the last nine minutes of running, hopped off and was about to answer until the Shadow Demons showed up.

Tiana, however, grabbed the necklace while getting ready to break it with Dr. Facilier looking at her troubled while she declared firmly to them, "Back off, or I'm going to break this thing into a million pieces!"

The Shadowman grabbed some of his Magic Dust and blew shortly at them as Tiana was changed back into a human with her wearing a white sleeveless gown with golden straps, diamond earrings, a golden necklace, and a white feather resembling the classic 1920s swinger outfits. Along with this came a beige fur shawl.

The area also changed with the illusion to what Taiwan dreamed about as well and with Morgana watching this while being confused as she was sitting at the table next to The Shadowman.

Tiana although heard a ukulele being played near a person playing the piano, declared Naveen's name… Only to hide her disappointment at discovering it was someone else, yet shortly turned as Dr. Facilier noted to her then while sipping some wine made real thanks to his magic, "Now, isn't this a whole lot better than hopping around The Bayou for the rest of your life?"

"Shadowman…" She states in wariness as he chuckled while heading over to her and Morgana let out a yelp cutely as she was once again tied up into a shadow tendril to his wrist, "Got to hand it to you, Tiana… When you dream, you dream big," he showed her his cards that one showed up and shared her poster briefly before pocketing them, and motioned to the location while also at the same time, placing Morgana down with a cloned stick of his cane and walking around her, "Just look at this place. Going to be the crown jewel of the Crescent City!" She did believe that yet paused by his next set of words with a hand-me gesture as well, "And all you got to do to make this a reality is hand over that little old talisman of mine."

"No... This is not right," she then told him after a few seconds of debating yet he scoffed at that and made illusions of her memories of where she was let down while he spoke, "Come on now, darling. Think of everything you've sacrificed..." "Girl, all you ever do is work… I told y'all she wouldn't come." "Think of all those naysayers who doubted you…" "You ain't never going to get enough for the down payment…A little woman of your background, you're better off where you're at." "And don't forget your poor Daddy."

That got Tiana's attention as Morgana was going to say something yet her mouth was wrapped up with a stare from Dr. Facilier yet turned to Tiana then while softly speaking to her as if he understood, "Now that was one hard-working man. Double, sometimes triple shifts." The illusion of what he was showing her Indeed indicated what he explained, especially from her past as a little girl, "Never letting on how bone tired and beat down he really was. Shame all that hard work didn't amount to much more than a busted-up old gumbo pot and a dream that never got off the back porch. But you? You can give your poor Daddy everything he ever wanted."

"Come on, Tiana. You're almost there." Dr. Facilier then claims as Tiana looked distracted to the point the Frog Talisman she had in her hands was almost slipping while he had his hand under it while expecting to catch it. "My Dad never did get what he wanted…" Tiana saw her father and everyone back then laugh while she saw her younger self sit on his lap on the porch, "But he had what he needed." She turned to him as he backed up by her gaze with Morgana muffled-cheering at her spot, "He had love. He never lost sight of what was really important."

"Easy with that, Careful." Dr. Facilier states with him looking panicked by the way Tiana glared and was getting ready to throw it, "And neither will I!"

Before she could smash hit, it was nabbed by Dr. Facilier's Shadow as it chuckled at her and he in turn also laughed maliciously while pointing at her; making her grunt as the illusion fell and she changed back into a frog.

"Y'all should have taken my deal. Now you're going to spend the rest of your life being a slimy, little frog," he said while placing his real cane on top of her lightly and getting ready to squish her of sorts as he held the Talisman loosely yet firmly as he chuckled to himself, lightly.

Tiana, however, looked determined and stated firmly to him while correcting him as well, "I've got news for you, Shadowman. It's not slime... It's mucus!" He gasped with wide eyes as he saw her tongue nab the Talisman and moved hastily from his startled state, and smashed it to pieces before hopping away to Morgana as the tendril faded yet she fell on her behind and looked paler than normal to the point this secretly worried Tiana.

"No! No!" Dr. Facilier states with panic while holding the pieces as he was on his knees and was gathering them up and continued to speak to himself in fear, "How am I ever going to pay back my debt!?"

Without warning, some of the gravestone faces shifted and revealed some Voodoo Masks while vocalizing and getting ready to start things, "Friends," Dr. Facilier states warily while greeting them yet paled as they proceeded to sing and with that same music from before also beginning to play as well.

Masks (Same Time): "Are you ready?"

"No! I'm not ready at all! I got lots more plans," Dr. Facilier states while holding back at being afraid as the area was beginning to fill with Voodoo things slowly: The Shadow Demons, more Masks, Dolls, the works. Even some Shrunken Heads materialized before vanishing back who knows where.

Falling Shrunken Heads (Same Time): "Are you ready?"

"This is just a minor setback in a major operation," Dr. Facilier proceeded to try and tell to them yet jumped and held in a scream as more Dolls showed up from the ground as the rising dead, "As soon as I whip up another spell, we'll be back in business! I still got that Froggy Prince locked away!" The Shadow Demons were for once wary as only a few Voodoo items and Masks as well saw darkness seep from the shattered remains of the Broken Talisman as The Shadowman went to a large gravestone and placed himself against the wall as he states rapidly to them as sweet drops off him, in developing fear, "I just need a little more time."

As he was pleading, the Masks were doing the 'Bum' music with their lips in sync with each other and Facilier's Shadow backed away from the man and so did the Shadowman himself as the Leader: Zandalar, revealed himself, "No, please! Just a little more time!" The Shadowman states in panic mixed with honest fear while Morgana and Tiana warily moved for Morgana as she felt like lead slightly, as the Talisman was glowing a dark-like glow since Dr. Facilier continued to beg to them desperately, "I promise I'll pay y'all back! I promise!" He screamed as the Voodoo Masks remained while Zandalar slammed his mouth shut once he used a Shadow Demon to drag both The Shadowman and his Shadow, to the Other Side from within.

The Broken Talisman then disintegrated while transforming into a monster within moments to get their attention as all but Zandalar fled the scene for Voodoo Items and Masks, and it was oddly enough a mix of a frog (hence the Talisman itself), but more.

It was as tall as two grizzly bears with some reptile-like frog features as the head was frog-like yet it was a dragon, and on its forehead was the one symbol Morgana has been seeing while whatever the creature had, had four red eyes, sharp teeth, and it was crimson red with dark-like mist coming from its frog-like dragon legs with it also having frog legs and feet with claws, and cackled-like growled at them.

It then lept right at Morgana as Tiana shouted a loud no and with Zandalar only watching in mixed interest and hidden anger while Morgana shortly closed her eyes, she heard the sounds of whatever it was crying in utter shock with pain and saw her Godmother alongside both Adagio and Sunset here, and Freddie showing up with wondering where her father was yet headed over to Morgana to try and heal her the best she could as the three elder females dodged while fighting whatever the creature was.

Morgana though was worried as it eyed them both with rage, and lightly gulped while telling her as she resummoned Xal'atath yet rolls her eye while she did cut the creature, but it jumped away and looked to be ready to attack any one of them, "Freddie, you need to go. Now! I don't want my friend hurt."

Without warning or even a chance for Morgana to defend her, the creature opened its mouth as spikes shot out… And hit dead-on right into Freddie's right lung to their horror as she looked at Morgana in disbelief while falling and gazing on weakly as something snapped within Morgana and shortly got Zandalar's attention as she gripped Xal'atath firmly yet gently around her handle to know one thing, and from the weapon abruptly getting serious: Morgana was truly angered as to what happened to her loved one, and it didn't help matters as the creature cackled and leaped into the air while gaining wings, and growing unexpectedly to make the three elderly females and female frog nervous, to three times its size and was opening its mouth as flames of darkness could be seen forming within.

Morgana's improved eyes glowed as they started to circle and sparkle like a glowing-green aurora as she saw Xal'atath wordlessly change into a large sword about her form, and channeled energy right into the weapon before sending it right as the creature sent its darkness-like fire at her and with it going wide-eyed as the flames were dissolved from the odd black and green x-shape attack, and caused an explosion to destroy it quickly.

Once Xal'atath saw her owner was tired, she went back into Morgana, and the child seeing Freddie moved hastily to her while discovering she was bleeding badly Tiana was shocked alongside the others as she proceeded to cry while expressing herself to assure her friend, "Hang i-in the-there… Auntie!"

Zombina heard Morgana's voice as it seemed strained, weak, and truly sad as she came over and checked the wound over, and knew her venom was no longer able to infect others and stuff as earlier she was grabbed by a pervert while looking for the others and bit him before knocking him out, and realized that's all she did, just bitten him. "There isn't anything I can do as I'm not the healer mostly, Bright Eyes," Zombina told her to then make her inwardly wince at beholding the desperate gaze she had in her orbs until they all turned with both Sunset and Adagio, and even Zombina wary as Morgana got Zandalar's attention.

"Help her, please!" She begged the large Voodoo Mask as he seemed to be in debate, and his Council Masks were floating close by him once again while murmuring to themselves and him, "Please!" She begged again as her tears fell onyo the ground with Tiana having like the others, a dread-like feeling of what "Help" they would offer.

Zandalar looked to the left as they nodded, and the right as well before opening his mouth, and unexpectedly Morgana was dragged near him by Shadow Demons without her struggling and the others tried to get to her as a blade appeared and they were grabbed while holding her down. Everyone was alarmed to be spelled in place to not interfere at all and with worry etched on their faces.

Morgana was confused until she heard herself scream as her left arm was swiftly cut off and her marks on her original arm and the right one changed into x-like spirals, the left spiral being her Soulmate Marks, and the right being those about her as family.

Voodoo Drums were playing as they saw her arm disintegrated into blood before seeing it lifted into the air mixed with odd vials tossed into the floating orb of the blood itself, and change colors to dark blue, pine tree green, amber, and finally into grey before it was sent like a missile into Freddie as her wound began to rapidly heal up and the Council Masks hummed with a suggestion to Zandalar in which he nodded as he opened his mouth, and tendrils of blood and darkness began to attach itself to Morgana as a new arm for her started to form.

Her skin color besides the arm itself also changed to a light tan, and her seal then went to the right palm of her hand while she also grew a single large dark-green horn on the center of her forehead, which connects directly to her skull, and was formerly her scar.


Privately in another time or place in the past (mainly in Morgana's Birthworld that is), a familiar tall Ogre Girl at this point sneezed as if she was no longer an only sibling yet shrugged to herself while in her parent's home enjoying their supper.

She, Tionishia that is, was tall for her age of being only fourteen and was at least 5'9 and was said to get to eight feet or more as she matured, and had a DD-Cup (which is said to grow as she ages as well to maturity) with tan skin and long flowing black hair. She also has fangs, pointed ears, a dark purple horn in her forehead in which connects directly to her skull, and purple with grey eyes. She even has developing curves at this age as well, and presently wore a summer dress.

She couldn't help but have an odd feeling that something, later on, would occur as such.

Something that would improve her life as well, and possibly from the odd feeling as she saw her parents in strange sadness, to get rid of the said feeling.


Back with Morgana, her arm became a clawed-like arm to that of a Neo-Heartless but with five fingers and each claw also matched the color of her horn, and passed out while Zombina freed herself, and caught her.

Freddie also passed out as well after being healed, yet she regained her wings and tail due to what Ragis noted she was, once again, and had small cute horns within her hairline.

Unexpectedly, ritualistic drums started to beat that made all the Masks as everyone became able to move once again, and even Zandalar go wide-eyed nervously to make them wary as near a mausoleum crypt, it started shifting and changing into an odd building of sorts before the door opened and revealed an unusual male person that Zandalar was scared for once at showing up.

He mostly represented to the Male Trolls from his world he hails from: Azeroth, yet he was a Zandalar Death Loa and in terms the Death Loa to all Voodoo. His face was that to a mask of sorts and by the markings on his body, glowing-white eyes, spiky-black hair, and wore tattered red leggings with bone armor of sorts on him as well that only was from his shoulders, and legs. He also wore a talisman-like skull necklace, and his hands and fingers look to that of darkness-like skeletons of the Troll Race.

This was Bwonsamdi, and he did not look at all pleased while staring right at Zandalar, yet his eyes softened at Morgana and Freddie, for some odd reason.

He then floated over to the two and checked them over firstly before floating over to Zandalar and the Masks while declaring in an accusing time to them, "Now wat has been goin' on here that Ol' Bwonsamdi wasn't invited ta? You know very well dat I was busy with certain tings back home and entrusted ya ta handle tings in dis world when I'm gone? I saw and half-approved of ya actions as ya could of taken somethin' else then da child's arm, hmm?" In the end, Bwonsamdi crossed his arms while giving his Creations a stern look.

He then did a double-take at discovering the ring that moved as well (Yidhian's Prison that is) onto her right finger (the same location it did on her left) and glared while snapping his fingers, and Yidhian was finally freed while glaring at the Masks, and accusing them as well, "You fools kept me from coming out this entire time?! Well," she placed her left thumb to her mouth to rapidly inflate her fist into a large cartoonish fist, and was going to smash them until it deflated by the half-amused stare Bwonsamdi gave her with a 'I-Got-This' glance to her, and glared at them, "You kept a Djinn from her Mastah when da Youngin' needed her? For shame Mon, for shame…" the Death Loa shook his head in utter disappointment yet paused while hearing the Council Masks warily state to him in hummed-like tones to only get him to nod and seeing Zombina grabbed Morgana while the other two teens grabbed Freddie, and when they were done, he still glared at them while telling them off, "Ya still coulda told Ol' Bwonsamdi what ta planned ta do ta da child and wat I recently found out of ta tings ya did ta dis world."

Thunder rumbled to realize a storm was coming, yet Bwonsamdi chuckled with his eyes glowing to make Zandalar if he could, pale by his next set of words, "For what ya have done… You are lost in ta rankings of Head Mask, and hereby stripped of ya properties as a Mask." Bwonsamdi held out his left hand as the Mask shrieked in agony before shrinking and seeing a mist-like effect go into the Death Loa's hand, knew one thing: It was the Mask's Soul. Once it was small enough, the light faded from Ex-Leader Zandalar's mask-like orbs and disintegrated into dust.

He saw the looks of the others while eyeing Morgana mainly with a shrug, "It been happenin' for a while dat one. Too many mistakes for a Loa's Servant he formerly be, Mon." He saw the sky thunder more while sensing the need, and conjured a dark-like vortex to make them wary or give looks as if to wordlessly state, the catch, "Ol' Bwonsamdi is just seekin' his interest at heart, Young Ones. She was aftah all, named me Champion along with otha powahed Gods and Goddesses. Soon, howevah… I be seekin' her out ta test her on tings and more." He then left to make Zombina glare and the two teens to worry about that.

With it rumbling, they headed right into the vortex as it just started to rain, and privately, a contract was placed into Morgana's pocket from the Death Loa himself and from what he extracted from within Zandalar, Dr. Faciliar's odd gem that was on top of his cane.


Ten minutes later outside the church as most of the crowd went their ways, Charlotte was getting impatient at this point as they could clearly tell there was a storm coming and decided to barge into the church to go after whom she thought was Prince Naveen, "Prince! Prince Naveen! Your shy and retiring Bride-To-Be is getting antsy!" Lawrence as this meant he wasn't looking like Naveen, stunned her at seeing an old man instead of her Prince Charming, and he grunted before chuckling nervously to her before speaking, "Hello, darling." They both screamed as he took off out of the church.

"Miss La Bouff! Please, down here!" Naveen states to get her to look downwards and get repulsed by him still in his froggy state, "Allow me to introduce myself. I am the real Prince Naveen!" Before he could continue, he was smashed by a bible oddly enough the same way Tiana way earlier did to him back in the blonde's room, and then states weakly in continuation, "Of Maldonia." That indeed made Charlotte gasp lightly in quick surprise and also recalled the storybook when she was a child, and states to him in mixed hope and curiosity, "Did you say 'Prince'?"

Outside currently as Zombina and Co. and with Zombina carrying her Godchild and Sunset awkwardly carrying Freddie as Adagio that it was discreetly sweet… In which she won't say that out loud unless along with Her Blaze, and saw Eli looked ticked at Lawrence while telling the Officers back then, "Boys, drag this maggot down to the Parish Prison."

Lawrence however began to beg while in the cab, "I'm completely innocent! Now, the Shadowman bamboozled me! Goodness gracious." Once the vehicle took off, Zombina thought bitterly about the old man's situation. That's what you get by getting involved with the bad version of a deal, and she was then looking and glimpsing Tiana took off into the church before adjusting her sleepy godchild's hold and saw Eli come over with mixed looks of suspicion and relief at seeing the two girls, and with seeing he had questions, they started to explain to him what went down.

Back within the church itself, Naveen explained his situation to Charlotte… Only for her to ask to make sure, "This is so much to absorb. Let me see if I got this right… If I kiss you before midnight, you and Tiana will turn human again? And then we're gonna get ourselves married and live happily ever after the end?" Naveen looked irritated only slightly while seeing the time, "Yeah, more or less. But remember, you must give Tiana all the money she requires for her restaurant," Tiana was about to intervene until she froze at the spot by listening to him and was secretly touched by the end of it, "Because Tiana, she is my Evangeline."

"Anything you want, sugar," Charlotte staes yet was confused by the odd name of the other girl mentioned, quickly got herself ready while Naveen also puckered his lips with a fake mood of enjoyment as she continued, "Pucker up, buttercup." She then picked him up and was getting ready to kiss him until Tiana exclaimed loudly enough to startle them, "Wait!"

"Tiana?/Tiana?" They both exclaimed as Naveen's was mixed feelings while Charlotte was a mix of being stunned and oddly sympathetic for her friend's cause in looks, "Don't do this." Naveen, however, expressed to her determinedly with Tiana looking ready to disagree, "I have to do this. And we are running out of time," he went to move back to Charlotte until he froze briefly and turned to see Tiana held his left froggy arm while declaring to him, "I won't let you!"

"It's the only way to get you your dream!" He told her while he was about to get out of this until he froze and did a double-take with soft eyes as she looked ready to do anything to prove it to him by what the Prince saw, even to the point of her looking ready to shed a tear, "My dream? My dream wouldn't be complete without you in it. I love you, Naveen."

"Warts and all?" He then asked her watching the light in Tiana's orbs knowing he wasn't going to abandon her as she held back her tears yet one did escape while she accepted his froggy hands, and replied, "Warts and all." They turned with them understanding the blonde's plight, Tiana further as she sniffled a few times lightly, "All my life, I read about true love in fairy tales and, Tia, you found it!" They looked at each other briefly then before looking back to her as she continued to touch their hearts at her kindness, "I'll kiss him. For you, honey. No marriage required." She picked him up at that point.

Without warning to settle the mood they had to urgency, they saw the time as the bell tolled the time, "Oh, my word! Maybe that old clock's a little fast!" She then kissed him repeatedly yet it seemed it was too late as she looked sympathetic of them both while admitting defeat, with them giving her an understanding look in return, "I'm so sorry."

Louis then came panting to them later on while Charlotte took off with Eli in his car, and the others went with them back to the mansion to allow the children to rest and with Tiana briefly telling Naveen what occurred in the Graveyard to have mixed feelings of being impressed, fearful of the situation, and was thankful that they were all ok at least. "Tiana! Naveen!"

"Louis, what is it?" Naveen asked with Tiana feeling dread abruptly within her heart, and she was right as Louis then gave them the bad news as he held said person gently in his claws, "Shadowman done laid poor Ray low," he commenced to state with Tiana stating their friend's name in mixed horror, sadness, and shock, "Ray." "He's hurting awful bad," Louis finished as he revealed the firefly as he placed him gently down on a leaf as Ray gasped a few times before glimpsing the two frogs, "Hey, Cher, how come you're still…" "We're staying frogs, Ray," Tiana gently told him while trying to not all cry, and both frogs realized this would harm Morgana as well as she also befriended the firefly yet Naveen gently told him since they held hands to show proof to soon bring a small smile on the bug's face, "And we're staying together."

"Oh!" Ray then spoke a few words in French they understood before resuming a gasp and speaking softly to them, "I like that very much," he stared at the sky while watching the Evening Star shining brightly and responded lastly to them in a look he had no regrets at all, "Evangeline likes that, too." They all gasped yet lowered their heads as on this night, Ray, passed on.

It was a day later at the start of the evening with Morgana, Zombina, and Freddie joining them for the funeral as both Adagio and Sunset were forced to work the shift at Duke's that night, to their apologies, the two children and Godparent to Morgana, used a rowboat as Louis allowed Tiana and Naveen to ride his back as the family of fireflies from Ray, saw to his funeral.

The two girls wore black dresses alongside Zombina as she was irritable about it as she was primarily a tomboy in clothing, yet stood alongside the others as Louis began playing a solemn tune on his trumpet.

Before they could allow Ray to take off, it seems Morgana wanted to give Ray something in return with her glancing at her arm that held the parting gift: A shilling she kept from Surrey that was dubbed as her lucky coin.

This touched everyone and particularly the secret Loa of Death in hiding as he decided to carry out the firefly's wish, and to be brought together with the Evening Star, truly, once in odd circumstances called Evangeline.

The skies cleared up as everyone was looking downwards yet once they saw the clear sky, they froze before they all except a few gasped, and then most everyone was cheering as they saw a new star next to the Evening Star.


It was another day later that Zombina thought it was karma going to bite her as she wore a fancy dress that went well with her curves: A sleeveless red dress with low-heeled shoes as she sat alongside the other animals within the swamp and next to Louis in the boat that is.

Morgana stood next to Mama Odie alongside Freddie as they were chosen by Tiana to be her bridesmaids, and Mama Odie was just finishing up her speech to the state, "And so by the power vested in me," she chuckled before finishing, "I now pronounce y'all frog and wife. Get to it, Hop-along! Give your lovely bride some sugar!"

Naveen wore a butterfly bowtie while Tiana from the fireflies and Mama Odie as a frog-like dress, and the tie soon declared to Naveen before taking off, "Congratulations."

Once they kissed, Morgana like the others were getting excited as while the newlyweds kissed, they were reverting back to being human. "This going to be good!" Mama Odie told the child as she nodded happily with her tears falling in happiness and not knowing within the water, a certain Sea God of the Greeks, was watching this and pondered if this was her, and went to message his son… Especially since he was on vacation.

Naveen and Tiana immediately wore wedding gear as Tiana's was a green sparkling strapless sleeveless ball gown. The gown's petticoat is a light yellow color. Along with the gown, Tiana wears light green opera gloves, green shoes to match the gown, a light blue diamond necklace with matching earrings, and a lily pad tiara to top it all off. With this outfit, Tiana's hair is pinned up in an updo bun. Naveen, however, featured in a fresh, new formal attire with heavy and light shades of green, matching Tiana's official princess gown. The princely attire is also featured with a cape, going down just below Naveen's waist.

When they opened their eyes, they were startled at first before staring at each other in both love and excitement before turning to Mama Odie as she then recounted in residence to them while at the same time, petting Juju, "Like I told y'all, kissing a Princess breaks the spell."

"Once you became my wife, that made you…" Naveen started to state in gentle realization to her as she finished to him gently in reply, "A Princess. You just kissed yourself a Princess." Morgana was happy for them yet looked at her clawed-like hand as it sent out a brief dark-like mist and back to confuse her, yet heard and saw what Naveen expressed to his new wife, "And I'm about to do it again."


A week later on April 23rd, 1926, Within the Church of New Orleans:

Tiana was nervous as it was her, Zombina, Morgana, Charlotte, and Freddie were in the Bride's part of the church yet Morgana assured her with Tiana knowing like they did Morgana was still getting used to her new arm while holding back a wince at how tight she was grabbing her without meaning too yet was also touched by her words, "I know when love is true, Miss Tiana, and you and Prince Naveen have it."

Charlotte agreed with the child while doing the final touches to the dress, "Yes, and I reckon there wouldn't be problems at all Tia, especially Mary here going to give ya both a surprise after it's over."

Now that made Tiana suspicious with Freddie holding back a giggle like Zombina and Charlotte, even a few others understood what Morgana planned to do yet didn't say a word as Eudora came into the room and nearly cried in happiness at seeing her only child looking wonderful in her gown.

The gown was a beige dress that reveals her back, with a matching Juliet cap, transparent gloves as well as a green tiara. Her dress also consists of green linings with a flower on the shoulder.

After the vows were said and done and with Naveen wearing his formal Prince attire, and after everyone was done cheering and everything, the pastor of the church then stated loud enough for everyone to hear as Naveen and Tiana were offered a seat nearby while Morgan's nervously came up to where they married, "Now that we have a new Prince and Princess married from the church, Miss Evergreen here has decided to give them a gift of a song that they would like."

Tiana and Naveen was impressed at that, and seeing encouragement from her Godmother and friends, she lightly stilled yet calmed herself as she began to sing. Everyone was surprised at how good she was to which Adagio and Sunset able to make it to this wedding, and showed pride on their faces while they held each other's hands as most, however, understood the beginning of the words like Zombina, Adagio, and Sunset while others… Were just plain confused until it was switched to English from her lessons with the Sirens.

Morgana sang the entire song in that tongue, then sang it with less nervousness as she closed her eyes while doing so.

(Just so you all know, I don't own this upcoming song, yet this is a perfect one suggested by Rwbyknight. Thank's man, btw)

Morgana: "I remember sitting with you. Underneath the tree of life. We listened to every fainted cry of the creatures there on the day the world began~. Looking at everything that I've lost~, and almost everything that I've loved~. I'll hold them all tightly in my arms~, and wondering where I am, so please tell me where to go~."

Morgana: "All of the answers you seek lie hidden in the sun~. If I hadn't met you, my life would've been in the darkness forever. In my wings~ are the powers of immortality, but by meeting you~ my whole life has changed. You give light to me~. Hope to me~, strength into my life~."

Morgana: "All this time~ these twelve thousand years I know, AISHITERU~! Eight thousand years from the time that I've met you~ my love grows strong than ever before, and words can't say of this time I've been waiting~ to share my love with you~. I'd give you my life~, I would give you the world~ to see you smiling every day. One hundred million and two thousand years from now, AISHITERU~! I want you to know since you came in my life every day~, every night you give light~ into the darkest skies~.

Morgana: "All these twelve thousand years~ I've been loving you~."

Once Morgana was done singing, she jumped lightly at hearing everyone cheer for her with her tinting in the phrase as both Naveen and Tiana got up, and hugged her while Naveen rubbed her head.

The newlyweds then left the church and into a carriage while Tiana thought she saw her father smiling at her and blinked when he was gone, and also Maria with a smirk tossed the flowers into the air which Charlotte caught to her inward glee while they rode out.

Zombina shook her head in amusement while she was watching her Godchild play with Freddie and the children in the church's courtyard and waiting for Naveen and Tiana to come back to serve the food and other things yet froze as she was lightly tapped on her shoulder, and turned to see it was Maria as she wore an outfit that was perfect for the wedding and in the same colors as her leotard and everything in design, and stated to her, "Glad to see that you're alright alongside the others, Miss Black."

Zombina narrowed her orbs yet realized who she was, and hugged her longtime friend she forgot about and pulled away with her asking her, "Maria, I'm sorry about what I said last to you before… Before I was taken and other things."

Maria nodded at her with an understanding smile as she forgave her for what the petty thing was as they were younger back then, yet head-gestured to Morgana while she laughed from Freddie tricking a random boy at her card trick, "I take it that's Morgana then?"

Zombina only nodded to her as Maria states gently in a soft tone, "My how she grew from the last I saw her… But that arm and what races she is present, I never thought it to see it, did you?"

"Honestly, I never did. But the Potter Luck is somewhat different on her as she is flip-flopped at most... I blame the Stag of her father he was," Zombina told her best friend to get Maria to grin and laugh lightly at that, and Zombina then gestured to her as Maria sighed in return, "Seems you figured out how to 'travel' of sorts… But why a Bounty Hunter?"

"Thought it would please my thrilling nature, mainly, and it did," Maria shrugged casually as if it wasn't a big deal, and Zombina shrugged before they watched the children play for a few moments since Sunset and Adagio were with most of the others in the kitchens finishing up, "She is a wonderful little girl though from what I saw briefly… Make sure you watch out for her as some want her for her blood and other things," Maria added as Zombina nodded as from what they both knew, from her mixed races of a Chaosarinian and currently Ogre Monster Race (8) from the horn and skin tone as the child herself increased in height overnight by a few inches, and whatever the odd black-like clawed arm she gained, realized she would be a perfect target for anyone to take and use her, even if she was against it.

"I think I'm going to head out. I have my Bounty done and need to turn it into my boss as such," Maria states with Zombina giving her a look yet shrugged once again while softly asking with them hugging it out before she did, "You would visit, right?" Maria only nodded as once Zombina blinked, Maria was gone and shook her head once more time at her friend's antics before gazing at the children.


Things have been good so far as another week passed with the date being officially April 30th in 1926, and Tiana and Naveen got help for her dream to come true from everyone pitching in to remodel the former Sugar Mill into Tiana's Palace: The most wonderful restaurant within both The Bayou and New Orleans.

Louis also got his dream to come true by playing in the same band within the restaurant, and Naveen aided Tiana while they both worked and had fun all at the same time, but it was tonight the vortex showed up to confuse them as in the wall, a portal showed up to get Morgana to be somewhat sad she would have to go immediately, and they were explained yet also understood what this meant.

"Don't worry darling, we'll visit soon once we get a chance," Tiana states gently to her friend as Zombina escorted Freddie and the rest of her belongings alongside whatever her father possessed, into an enchanted briefcase and sent her into it alongside Sunset as Adagio remained behind to settle things before they left.

"I know, but… I," Morgana started yet was lightly patted by Naveen as he understood her caring nature and worry of others as they were all discreetly worried about Tiana as lately, she was throwing up in the mornings and hardly ate a specific food. "We will be fine Little One. I'm sure you missed your own family whenever you come from."

Before she could reply, the Contract within her pocket still alongside the gem magically came out and making those currently here be cautious Morgana yelped as the secret elemental gem went right into her, and within her heart, Larxene was stunned at what gem it was: The Gem of Pure Darkness and Shadows as it glowed a darkly purple before fading (to know it was official), and the contract that also went into her, caused her body to glow as from her aura and with it escaping her frame, they were all stunned as it went outside at the back to reveal a bird of sorts.

It or she was a large, avian creature notable for her dragon-like wings. She also has strong talons. Some of her body is also covered in red feathers and she has a long lizard-like tail. The creature cooed out to her as she landed, and made Morgana giggle lightly before it screened her hair gently on the back balcony edge very easily and Morgana knew instantly what it was as, within her Platform, Larxene was somewhat surprised as Yidhian was here to confirm it as secretly, the Genie herself doing so for the last week, "Valefor (9)."

Valefor trilled at her name gently used as privately, she and the others were pulled from the Aftertrealm as these were the very same entities a former summoner once used and renewed for the child's descendent: Morgana that is, as her former summoners Great-Great-Grandchild was Morgana's Father's Mother.

After Valefor dismissed herself and secretly, within Morgana's Heart-like Platform, Morgana waves gently goodbye as Adagio and Zombina gently escorted the child into the vortex.


Disclosed Location in London, England, and Within Morgana's Birthworld on the same date as she left (Still the same day):

A man was waiting for his contact to arrive as he was cloaked within a shady bar in the muggle part of London, and privately, wore a stolen outfit as he was able to escape after feeling a particular bond telling him to leave as soon as possible, and find out where or when his Godchild was.

"So you have been reduced to stealing clothes as a true dog, Black?" A dull-toned voice stated it was Snape, and the man Sirius Orion Black (Movie Version) nodded as they moved to the corner of the bar and he removed his hood to reveal himself slightly. He had a gaunt, sunken face, waxy skin, starting to turn yellow teeth, and long, matted black hair along with onyx-colored eyes, and then decided to retort back to Snape only half-lightly as he was recovering from the effects of Azkaban, still after being only out three days ago, "Ya, Snivellus, and I had to. I need to know where Morgana is as I felt her distress a whole bunch of times until at this point it felt like my one arm was torn or something from me, today."

Snape curled up at the dreaded nickname Sirius dubbed him with ever since their Hogwarts Years, yet ignored that in immediate concern over Lily's child possibly getting harmed by what Black mentioned, "Indeed… I may realize where she might be, but it is currently inaccessible at this point in time." Snape held up his hand before making sure a Notice-Me-Not Spell was placed around them briefly before reaching into his robes and handing him a letter to which he opened and was curious over by the Greek Symbol of Hecate being on it as the Goddess understood he would be escaping at some point, but not when, and made this letter as such, and tasked Snape to oversee the 'Black' male get it.

After reading it, he folded it up into his clothes and was mixed at this moment, and stated firmly to Snape then, "When will I be heading there? I need to know as I have to discreetly settle things on my end?" Not known to them, a certain Loa sent a certain Shadow Cat Demon to spy on certain individuals for the Gods and in doing so until Morgana returned, would gain her freedom... But if she did anything to try so herself, unexpected things would occur.


Well, there you guys go, as that is the latest chapter to Morgana has been unleashed with a cliffhanger once again, Mwahahaha! (coughs awkwardly) Sorry bout that, Evil Laugh Mode escaped me.

Anyways, I do hope you enjoyed the Chapter as much as I did, as this took me quite some time on my end, and other things to get it just right.

Besides that, I did mention on the top as to what Movie Franchise I hinted at? Well, here it is: The Little Mermaid (No sequal, sorry). But to let you all know, however, it would be slow as I'm also trying to update my lower chapters as well (still).

If you saw the odd name that was secretly jumbled of "Morgana" with the letter "X" in it, that my friends, is secretly her "Darkness" of her entire being within the Shadow itself, to mention it.

Besides that, I hoped you enjoyed this chapter as much as I did.

Anyways, here are the Numbers guys:

1: The Voice Actor to Naveen within the Movie itself, and was designed as such for the Actor as well.

2: As mentioned within the story... Servants to that Loa Death God, can be either people of any race or a particular one, or Specific Voodoo Masks as in that world as well, they do use Voodoo and worship Voodoo-like Gods just like Bwonsamdi himself. Though they are his servants and carry out his will, he doesn't take likely to alot of betrayal or whatnot… Although, you guys/gals would be seeing the Death Loa quite a bit within the story from now on, however.

3: If you are all wondering what the eye design is, it is indeed the "Tenseigan Eye Limit" from Naruto/Boruto Franchise, but not the true one as this is simply her new, permanent eye design. The main reason was her eyes shifting due to her magic and primarily glaring from her magic accidentally yet permanently reacting to her. Primarily from her emotions (I also decided to allow her eyes to be unique as such so it would be switching to the one eye in the "Wreck-It" Arc when she fights official battles).

4: Yes, that is a true book within the Potter Verse as such, and by the man himself based on the "Fantastic Beasts" Franchised movies.

5: Three Old Actors of Comedy back in the day, they even had a remake movie about it to honor them by their names being: Larry, Curly, and Moe. They even had a cartoon series "Hanna Barbara" had done as they were robots slightly (Sorts like a older Inspector Gadget Franchise).

6: Yes from Monster Musume Anime/Manga Franchise as she seems good enough to use as such, along with the others… Hint.

7: A Kingdom Hearts Song you all basically know by now, and yes at some point it's going to makes its own way into this story as well since it's my favorite one from a few games as such.

8: Just look up "Daily Life with a Monster Girl" and look into "Fandom" Part for said Race, if your curious.

9: Yes I plan to add the Aeons to this for a Specific Reason as well, still, and figured why not start with Morgana learning that one first.

That's it for now folks till the next exciting chapter to Morgana, or otherwise known as "Beauty and the Witch Sister".
