A/N: Hey guys! Here's chapter 15. Enjoy!
Willa stood frozen as she watched Wayne sobbing. Tears were streaming out of her eyes and down her cheeks. She sunk onto Wayne's bed and buried her face in her hands. She felt so bad. She should have let Wayne and Wanda go in ahead of her. Wayne should not have to be dealing with this kind of pain. It should be her in the clutches of the overtakers, not Wanda. Finally, after a few minutes Wayne got up off the floor. Willa looked up, her face still tear stained and flushed, and saw him walk to a safe. He opened it, and pulled out a professional looking pen. Willa was confused at first, but when she looked closer, she recognized the pen from the keepers' first adventure.
No. she thought. No. I cannot let him do this.
"Wayne!" she said, walking towards him. "Wayne, we can't give them the pen. We'll go and we'll rescue her, but we can't just appease them. We cannot let them win."
"Isabella, this is the only way to save my daughter without risking your capture. I'm sorry, but there's nothing more we can do. It's over." Willa cringed at the sound of her name. She hated the name that her parents had given her. That's why she went by her middle name. Nobody called her Isabella, not even Wayne. He must have been really upset; or mad. She hoped it wasn't the latter.
"Wayne, you do know that if you give them the pen, they won't let Wanda go right? Maleficent isn't one to keep her word."
"Well, I'm just going to have to hope that she does this time."Wayne said.
"Wayne!" Willa screamed. "She's not going to. I've seen it happen. When Finn, Charlene, and I went to the dungeons underneath Pirates of the Carribean, she promised Finn that she would let everyone go if he gave her the location of the stone cutter's quill. He was so worried about his sister, that he told her and then everyone disappeared. If he hadn't given her the wrong location, we'd be in big trouble right now. If you give her that pen, she's going to take it and leave without letting Wanda go. Trust me. You can't trust her." Wayne's face sunk.
"I know. I'm sorry. I don't know what made me think that Maleficent would keep a promise."
"Don't worry about it. You're just worried that's all. We'll go to Bay Lake at midnight and rescue Wanda." Wayne and Willa began to walk to the dining room to finish their dinner. Suddenly, Wayne stopped in front of a closed door. There were heart stencils on the door.
This must be Wanda's childhood room thought Willa. Wayne was frozen, and Willa could hear that he was beginning to cry again. Wayne slowly pushed open the door and walked in. Willa poked her head through the door. There was a bed with a pink blanket and a heart shaped pillow. A teddy bear was leaning against it. Next to the bed there was a side table with a lacey pink runner and a white lamp. There were silk pink curtains and a cushioned window ledge. The book shelf was filled with children's picture books, and next to it there was a wardrobe. On top of the wardrobe there was a framed picture of a smiling little girl dressed in a pink leotard and tutu hugging a dark haired man. Then, Willa recognized the man's face. The man was a much younger version of Wayne.
So that must be an old picture of Wanda and Wayne. Wayne opened the closet and inside hung many little girl dresses. Willa knew how painful it must have been for Wayne to be in this room after what had just happened. Then, Wayne walked out and closed the door. The two then walked to the dining room and finished their dinner.
That night, Willa and Wayne approached Bay Lake. It was eleven fifty eight. The overtakers would be there soon. Willa and Wayne stood in front of the lake, and waited. Then, the clock began to chime.
Dong Dong Dong Dong Dong Dong Dong Dong. Eight.
Dong Dong Dong Eleven.
Dong Twelve. Suddenly, a green cloud of smoke appeared in front of them, and Maleficent was there. Wanda had her hands tied behind her back and two overtakers were holding her.
"The pen?" asked Maleficent.
"Yes" said Willa sadly. Wayne handed Maleficent a fancy pen. Maleficent laughed evily.
"WE HAVE FINALLY WON!" she shouted. The two other overtakers cheered.
"Now my daughter." said Wayne. Maleficent laughed.
"No." she said. "Now; you can surrender and join us now, or we can take you hostage and force you to do it later." Willa began to cry and walked up to Maleficent.
"I surrender." she said. Maleficent laughed.
"Well, if you really are on our side, you'll hold the old man and his little daughter."
"Fine." said Willa. Obediently, she took Wayne by one arm and Wanda by the other.
"What are you doing?" whispered Wanda.
"And the Oscar goes to," said Willa, trying to hold back her laughter. The overtakers had actually fallen for her act. Maleficent was about to start making a speech, but before she could, Willa screamed
"NOW!" She let go of Wanda and Wayne and the three began to run towards the contemporary hotel.
"Get them!" screamed Maleficent. The two overtakers ran towards the three.
"KEEP GOING!" screamed Willa. Then, the unthinkable happened. Wanda tripped and fell. The overtakers grabbed her and walked her over to Maleficent.
"You actually thought you could get away?" laughed Maleficent. Wayne frowned.
"Wait." he said. "Take me in my daughter's place."
"NO!" Wanda said crying. "DAD NO! YOU'RE MORE IMPORTANT THAN ME."
"Very well." laughed Maleficent. Wayne walked over and one of the overtakers holding Wanda grabbed him.
"DAD NO!" screamed Wanda. "I CAN'T LET YOU DO THIS! I CAN'T GO THROUGH THE PAIN OF LOOSING YOU AGAIN!" Maleficent laughed and the five people disappeared in a flash of smoke. Willa fell to the ground and sobbed.
