Uh oh! Things have seemed to take a very sinister turn, haven't they? I hope you guys don't hate me for doing this but keep reading guys. We are far from over... RSD xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo.
*Harry's POV*
"MAL!" I shouted as I watched as she slipped under the water. I then stared at the water and I willed for her to resurface however I fell into despair as I watched as a white blur started to sink into the water.
"NO!" me, Ben, Jay, Carlos and Evie shouted together.
"Oh Brad you are for it now" I warned him darkly as I threw him a sinister look.
"Really?" he laughed as he walked off the plank.
"Let's do a head count shall we?" he mocked.
"One drowned dragon" he joked as he threw a laugh in Mal's direction.
"One captured king" he added before he span around quickly and punched Ben in the stomach again. I grimaced my teeth I couldn't believe that they would do this; but then as an afterthought of course they would. They are villains! I know one thing though if we couldn't save Mal; I needed to save Ben. I owed it to the both of them.
"One soon to be dead traitor" he continued as he pointed in my direction.
"And three rejects" he sang in Evie, Jay and Carlos's direction.
"Against a full pirate crew" he danced around before he slapped Ben across the face.
"Not likely!" he spat.
"I like those odds!" I snarled.
"How?" Uma asked bitterly as she stood next to Brad.
"You are not the captain of this ship" Brad mocked as they both crossed their arms over their chest.
"Uma is" he stated as he nodded in Uma's direction.
"No" I disagreed. This was it! This was the time when my final plan for revenge on the pair of them came into place. They didn't even know what was about to hit them; but I knew that I needed to try and save Mal and her family.
"I am!" I spat.
"Yes you have your own crew and you can keep them" I advised and I watched as both Brad and Uma's face dropped into shock.
"Well certain members" I amended.
"But we have my crew" I advised.
"You don't have a crew" Uma barked.
"I do" I stated back and I watched as Ben's eyes lit up at this information. I knew what was on his mind; as on our way here I stopped off at a few places. Yes it annoyed Ben when I kept stopping and starting and speaking to people. However I needed to put things into place; I needed to ensure all of our safety and I know that after all this was done that he would be grateful for all of my planning.
"Watch" I said smugly and I threw my head back and I let a loud rooster call echo into the fog. It went quiet for a few seconds before we heard the returning rooster call and the twenty VK's I had managed to recruit against Brad and Uma swung onto the ship. There was my sisters CJ and Harriet, Gil, Zevon, Anthony Tremaine, Yzla, Ginny Gothel, Mad Maddy, Gaston Jr, Gaston the third, Diego De Vil, Hadie, Claudine Frolio, Gonzo, Eddie Balthazar, Big Murph, Massie Mim, Maddie Mim, LeFou Deux and Jade Jafar.
"How do you like those apples?" I teased smugly. I watched as Brad and Uma looked at everyone and they grimaced at me before they lifted their swords up in front of them.
"ATTACK!" Brad shouted and everyone started fighting. I quickly slid my sword back into it's sheathe and jumped off the side of the ship; I had wasted enough time. I needed to get to Mal and I needed to get to her now!
I collided harshly with the water and I quickly started to swim down underneath the water. I swung my head around and started to panic as I couldn't find Mal; but then I saw a glimmer of white and I sighed in relief. I continued to dive further down until I found her on the bottom of the sea bed and I slid my left arm around her waist and tried to pull her up. However again I fell into panic when she wouldn't move with me; I attempted to pull her with me again and it was at this point when I noticed that the back of her wedding dress had managed to catch it's self in between two rocks. I pushed myself further down and took my knife out of my left boot and I started to cut away the part of trapped dress and the rope binding her. I started to feel my lungs contact as they started to ache with the pain of being starved of air, but I pushed this away. I needed to get Mal above the surface; yes I didn't know whether we were going to have a good outcome but what I did know is that I needed to return Mal back to Ben one way or another. After finally releasing Mal's dress I slid my knife back into my boot and I flung my arm around Mal's waist; I quickly swam one armed back up to the surface as my body kept screaming at me to hurry up. I felt myself start to weaken but I couldn't give up. Mal needed me, Ben needed me. Heck! My family and friends who were currently fighting above us needed me. As we both resurfaced I started to cough and splutter; I then looked over to Mal and I looked at her pale face before her head rolled onto my shoulder.
"Come on Mal" I begged as I kicked my legs and right arm to keep us both afloat. I then heard Mal take a deep breath before she started to cough and splutter and I couldn't help but smile.
"Mal" I said happily.
"Harry" she muttered as her head rolled back.
"Yes Mal it is me" I confirmed. I heard shouting and screaming above us and I looked up and started to panic.
"Ben" Mal muttered.
"We need to save Ben" she muttered as her eyes rolled.
"I'll save him Mal, I promise" I vowed as I started to swim closer to the ship. Thankfully there was rigging hanging very low so I was able to climb up amongst it; as I had both my feet onto the rigging and then I threw Mal over my right shoulder. I then carefully climbed up the rigging and towards one of the side boats.
"Oh!" I heard a dark voice say and when I looked up I saw that Brad was watching me.
"Oh no you don't!" he growled as he pointed a gun towards me. I quickly started to climb up the rigging and I was just about to climb behind one of the side boats before I heard a bang.
"What's happening?" Mal asked.
"Nothing" I answered back.
"Nothing you need to worry about" I added hoping that this was going to reassure her. I heard another bang and I felt a sharp sting in my left side and I groaned in pain.
"Urgh!" I grunted as I climbed behind the side boat glad that we were now both hidden behind it.
"Harry" Mal muttered as I continued to climb up to the side boat so I could make sure Mal was safe before I went to help everyone else.
"Get in there" I advised and I slid Mal slowly into the side boat. I grinned and smiled when I saw Sammy; I loved the fact that my plan was coming into coition. One of my stops on the way here was to make sure that Sammy was in place so she could take us away. However I was going to change things up slightly; I needed Sammy to take Mal away from here. Before Brad and Uma got to her again.
"Yes Captain" Sammy replied.
"Take her to the safe house; and stay with her until I come back" I advised.
"Yes Captain" Sammy advised. I then stepped back onto the ship; and I walked up to the winch and I quickly and carefully slid them down onto the water. I watched as Sammy started to row back to shore. I then pulled my sword out of it's sheathe and I pushed down onto my left side for a few seconds. I looked around and took the scene in front of me; Ben was bound against the mast where Mal used to be with everyone else fighting around him. When I looked at Ben he looked defeated; like his world had stopped the second that Mal fell from the plank. I heard footsteps head in my direction and I watched as Brad stomped past me as he tried to look for me.
"Now Brad" I stated as I jumped out and he span around and glared at me.
"You're mine" I snarled.
"Harry!" Ben exclaimed.
"Where's Mal?" he asked panic stricken as he tried to struggle against his ropes.
"Don't worry she is safe" I pressed and I watched as his face lit up at this information.
"But you are not Brad if you do not let me take Ben back to Auradon" I snapped.
"Whatever!" he said sarcastically as he rolled his eyes at me. I really didn't see what Uma saw in Brad; I even didn't know what Mal had saw in him. However this wasn't the time to evaluate what made Brad so irresistible to women - I needed to get Ben back to Mal. Otherwise she would kill me!
"THINK MAN!" I shouted.
"FOR THE LOVE OF LUCIFER!" I roared.
"He goes missing we have every official on this Isle; they will bring back the death penalty I'm sure" I added.
"What you both are now doing is treason!" I accused.
"SHUT IT HOOK!" Brad shouted at me.
"NO!" I shouted back and I charged at Brad and our swords quickly collided together as we started to sword fight. We kept matching each other stride for stride and I kept backing Brad towards Ben. I swung my sword around and nearly knocked Brad's sword out of his hand and Brad's face fell into shock.
"I am going to end this" he growled.
"Whatever!" I snapped back sarcastically and we continued to sword fight. I saw out of the corner of my eye that Ben was struggling against his ropes so I shoved Brad and he fell backwards over a nearby chest. I then looked at Ben and we shared a look before I swiped my sword in the direction of Ben's ropes and they fell from him.
"NO!" Brad shouted.
"Yes!" I snapped as I turned and picked up a nearby sword and threw it in Ben's direction.
"Is she really safe?" he asked hopefully as he caught it.
"Yes" I confirmed.
"We need to get you off here or she will kill me" I stated.
"Yeah; I need to get to her" he replied sincerely.
"Neither of you are going anywhere" Brad barked and he charged at Ben and I shoved him out of the way and my sword collided with Brad's. Me and Brad continued to sword fight as Ben sword fought with Desire. I watched as Jay jumped forward after disarming Bernie and he shoved Desire and she fell into the water below. I then saw out of the corner of my eye that Jay shoved Ben onto the last side boat as Evie and Carlos also jumped onto it. I shoved Brad away again and he became unsteady on his footing.
"JUST GO!" I shouted as I threw them a look. As I looked back at Brad I had to quickly jump out of the way to stop his blade swiping my face.
"NO!" I heard a voice say and the next thing I knew I saw Ben quickly catch Brad's sword with his own and they continued to sword fight.
"Get on the boat" Ben advised as he continued to meet Brad's strides.
"No!" I said as I held my left-hand side.
"Yes!" Ben exclaimed and he shoved me onto the boat and I landed next to Carlos with a loud clatter. I glanced up and I watched as Ben shoved Brad back and Brad fell back onto the floor. Ben then span around and jumped onto the boat; as Ben sat down next to me Jay quickly swung his sword and chopped the rope on the winch and we all dropped to the sea below.
"NOO!" Brad shouted.
"GET THEM!" Uma screamed. We all then ducked as shots were fired in our direction; I heard Evie scream as Jay and Carlos started to row us away from the ship.
"Let's get out of here" Carlos panted.
"Yes" Jay breathed back.
"Where's Mal?" Ben asked and I turned and looked at him and I noticed that he was giving me a look of panic.
"With Sammy, Smee' daughter" I advised.
"They should be in the safe house by now" I added.
"I hope so" Ben said and he started to nervously fidget with the rings on his left hand.
"Then we can all get out of here" he added as he looked out to shore and pursed his lips together.
*Ben's POV*
As the view of Harry's 'safe house' came into view; I quickly sped up and ran behind the fence. I heard everyone else's footsteps quicken behind me as I stormed through the front door. I quickly ran into the living room and my eyes widened at the scene in front of me.
Mal was lying on her right-hand side on the couch; her body still bruised, beaten and burnt and her drenched hair clung to the side of her face. Kneeling on the side next to her was a ginger haired girl (who must be Sammy), wearing red trousers and a blue and white stripy shirt.
"Your Majesty" Sammy said before she stood up and bowed to me.
"Mal" I muttered not taking my eyes from Mal.
"How is she?" I asked as I looked in Sammy's direction as I stood next to Mal.
"She's awake, just" she confirmed which made me take a sigh of relief. I nearly lost Mal; and I knew one thing for definite. I was going to make sure that something like this was never going to happen ever again.
"But very weak" Sammy muttered.
"I'm sorry" she apologised as panic hit the tone of her voice.
"I didn't know what else to do" she added.
"That's ok" I said as I looked back at Mal.
"You did everything you could" I said reassuringly.
"Help me lift her" I advised and she stepped out of the way so I could get closer to Mal. We both rolled Mal into her back before I slid my arms under her and I picked her up in a bridal hold. My stomach and chest whined in protest due to Brad's blows but I ignored it. What mattered now is getting Mal to safety; and we needed to do it now!
"Let's go" I said as I started to head for the door. I watched as Carlos, Evie and Jay all looked in Mal's direction before they went to turn to leave. However out the corner of my eye I noticed that Harry was stood still - I thought he wanted to come with us?
"Harry" I said as I stopped and looked at him.
"Yes?" He replied.
"Coming?" I asked as I tightened my arms around Mal.
"Are you leaving Captain?" Sammy asked sadly as she looked up at Harry.
"Yes" he confirmed as he picked up the backpack that he left on the couch waiting for him.
"Oh ok" she said as she looked down to the ground.
"You try and stay out of trouble" Harry said as he stepped up to her and she looked up at him. I watched as they shared a loving look and then it hit me; Harry and Sammy were more than just friends. And if the roles were reversed I wouldn't be able to leave Mal easily.
"Harry bring her" I advised making both of them look at me in shock.
"What?" they asked together incredulously.
"Come with us" I said to Sammy.
"I don't have anything" she said in a panic.
"We will sort everything out later; just come on" I advised and I turned and ran out of the house. I heard their footsteps behind me and I grinned when I saw that Jay and Carlos had the limousine already to go. Me and Evie then slowly and carefully placed Mal into the limousine and I slid in next to her and pulled her close to me. Harry and Sammy then closed the door behind me and ran around the car and opened the other door and climbed in. I watched as they shuffled their way to the other side of the limousine to give me and Evie room to look after Mal as Evie closed and locked all the doors.
Jay quickly kicked the limousine into life and I held onto Mal tightly as he drove away.
"Everything will be ok my angel" I said as I looked down at Mal and I stroked her left cheek with my right thumb.
"I promise" I vowed.
"There's the barrier" I heard Sammy say.
"And there's Brad and Uma!" Harry exclaimed.
"Jay hurry!" Evie shouted.
"On it!" I heard Jay say still not taking my eyes from Mal.
"Carlos do the honours" I heard Jay say. I then heard a click which told me that Carlos opened the barrier so we could return home. As soon as we passed the barrier entrance. I heard Carlos press the button again making the Isle side of the barrier lock which meant we were safe! We were all safe! Now all we had to do is make sure Mal was ok and get her well. Yes I know that we probably weren't going to get married today but this didn't matter. What mattered was that me and Mal still had each other and I would make sure that nothing like this ever happened again!
