Our little troupe made our way to the Barrier. Jay pressed the button and the Barrier opened. We stepped outside the barrier, I felt my magic return, stronger than before. I looked at the teal gem in my hand starting to pulse. "Nice hair." Uma commented. I pulled a lock of hair in front of my face and I smiled. It was white at it's roots, then it became aqua then faded into a pale purple. I turned to Mal and saw that she too had new hair. It was the same purple, but it had blue streaks.

"You got a little Hades thing going." Evie complimented.

"Those things pack a punch, huh?" Carlos asked.

"Yeah." I sighed, "Though the Ember is much more powerful than the Talisman." I heard grunts and I quickly turned, pulling Uma and Celia behind me protectively. Harry and Gill had lept through the barrier before it closed. I tilted my head as the two hugged.

"Hey guys." Harry said, "We just came for a...wee visit." They stepped forward, but Jay and Carlos intercepted them. Mal stepped forward and the ember was knocked out of her hand.

"Hey! Hey!" She yelped, kneeling to retrieve the Ember. However, Harry used his hook and pushed Mal's hand so the Ember jerked out of her reach and into the water. I stepped forward, ready to dive into the water and retrieve it, when a green tentacle emerged from the water, grabbing the ember before it hit the water. I watched as a person clad in green emerged from the ocean. Their hair was half shaved and green, the long part of their locks brushing their shoulders. Green eyes pierced my skin as their gaze fell to me. They had a green seaweed like wrap covering their chest.

"Drop something?" Morgan asked, holding the ember in one of their tentacles.

"Morgan, that can't get wet!" I shouted at my cousin, "Hand it back before the spark goes out!" Morgan laughed as they wrapped a tentacle around the ember before submerging themselves in the water. I sighed, crossing my arms as Mal cried out in alarm. There was a whirlpool of water before it exploded. "Why must our family be so dramatic."

"Hey guys." Morgan said from behind us, causing everyone to turn. Morgan was now dressed in an open green leather jacket, black binder across their chest that kept their stomach visible. They also wore denim shorts and dark green combat boots.

"Welcome back." Harry said, walking up to Morgan.

"Morgan, you swam off and forgot all about us." Gill muttered.

"No doubt planning some evil ploy." I growled, my eyes flashing.

"It's not all about you, Sophia, as much as you want it to be." Morgan said. "I slipped out out of the Barrier after Uma, and I've been looking for a weak point ever since, to let everyone out."

"You left us." Gill said, looking over at Uma.

"I'm trying to get you guys off this hunk of rock." Uma said. "That's why Evie and I set up the applications. I made sure to send you some."

"They don't need your pitty." Morgan said. "I tore them up." Harry eyed Morgan with distaste. "And you know what, this place is so much better than the Isle." Morgan gestured around themselves. "There's this thing that looks like a furry rock, and it's called a coconut. And there a creatures in the sea so big you could dance on their fins." Morgan pointed at us, "And they've been keeping it all to themselves."

"Who cares, Morgan, right now, Mal needs that Ember to break a spell." I stated. I then stuck out my hand, "Hand it over."

"The spell's been caused by Audrey, Sleeping Beauty's daughter." Carlos explained.

"So...the good guys the bad guy now?" Morgan confirmed, "Well...I might not give this back then." Morgan inspected the blue gem she was holding. "See what you'll do…"

"Morgan, I'm in no mood for these stupid games!" I shouted, "People's lives are at stake here!" Morgan laughed and walked over to the edge of the bridge,

"You gotta promise me that every single VK who wants off this island can do so if they want."

"Morgan, I can't do that." Morgan stretched their arm out, dangling the Ember over the side.

"How about now, dear cousin?"

"Deal!" Mal and I shouted at the same time.

"Morgan." Evie spoke up, "Their word is good." Morgan pulled the ember away from the water.

"I'm still keeping this." Morgan said, tucking the ember into their inside jacket pocket. "If you think that the group of you can save Auradon on your own, you're wrong. You can keep that old thing." Morgan gestured lazily to the Talisman in my hand. "This is a job for pirates!" I snarled softly, my eyes burning blue and the Talisman pulsing a pale teal.

"You guys can always go back to hating each other when this is over." Jay reminded me.

"Fine." I growled.

"Where are our bikes?" Jay demanded, turning to Harry and Gill.

"Oh, yeah. We crashed them." Gill said, like it was nothing special. Harry laughed, before proceeding to act out the bikes falling off a cliff.

"Here's a thought." Evie started, stepping forward. "We could try to be friends. Put our history behind us and celebrate our differences. Yeah."

"No way in Hades." I stated, crossing my arms. "I already have to work with my cousin, I'm not getting along with them either." I glared at Morgan.

"Let's go." Morgan said, starting to walk forward.

"I don't think so." I argued, "I'm in charge here. Let's just get off this stupid hunk of rock." I turned to the broken bridge. I lifted the Talisman, holding it towards the water. "Create the bridge to join two sides, protect out souls from the changing tides." I chanted. When I opened my eyes, the Bridge spread across the sea.

TIMESKIP

The now group of ten walked through the garden of Auradon Prep. I had my phone up to my ear as I frantically tried to get in contact with Ben. "They're asleep." Evie commented. "Everyone."

"Ben's not picking up." I said worriedly, glancing at my phone, "And he's not answering any of my texts."

"Dizzy and Amara aren't picking up either." Uma sighed.

"Or Doug." Evie added.

"Or Peter." Mal commented, biting her lip.

"Or Jane, the signal's out." Carlos pointed out.

"Is that Auradon Prep?" Celia asked, pointing at the large building.

"Yeah, and when everybody wakes up, you're gonna love it."

"Yes!" Celia cheered.

"Hope that you'll like it here." I said, placing my hand on Celia's shoulder, "Uma and I wanna get to know you."

"Yeah." Uma said, coming up beside me, "We're sisters. We gotta stick together."

"Dude, realy?" Carlos asked. I turned and saw Carlos' best non-human friend eating something out of a students hand.

"What It wasn't me! I swear!" Dude protested. I gave Dude a look as I appeared beside Carlos, "Ok, it was me."

"Do you know what happened here?"

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

"Guys." Evie called. We all turned to her. I approached Evie and saw her standing in front of a stone statue.

"Oh my gods…" I sighed, "Harmony…"

"Alright, everybody stay on their toes." Jay said.

"Since we're already at ths school, let's check it out." Morgan suggested.

"That's a bad idea." I announced, "Audrey went straight for the crown. If that's the case, it's safe to assume that she'd go right for Ben, which means she'd go for the Castle. That's where we're going."

"Say's who?" Morgan stepped forward.

"I do." I stepped forward as well, coming chest-to-chest with my cousin.

"Oh, you do. And...what...that's supposed to mean something to me?"

"Guys." Evie sighed. I glared at Morgan,

"We're going to the Castle." I growled, my eyes flashing blue before I turned on my heel and walked away.
