A/N: Hi guys! Well here it is; finally! I am so sorry I've kept you waiting so long. I've been so busy and I had terrible terrible writers block. Well, here it is. You don't have to kill me anymore. Ha Ha. Enjoy!

Willa arrived back at Wanda's apartment and threw herself onto the couch. She sobbed into a pillow. It must have been twenty minutes that she just laid there, sobbing. How could this happen? The overtakers had taken from her one of the people that she loved most. Now she knew how Finn had felt when he discovered that his mother was a green eye. She had never been able to completely understand how he felt until now. At this point though, she probably felt worse than Finn had, because when Finn's mother became a green eye, he didn't have the weight of the world on his shoulder. He didn't have all of his best friend's lives to worry about. He wasn't the only keeper left to face the overtakers and find the others. He didn't have to worry about losing Wayne or Wanda. He didn't have to face not even knowing if the people that he loved were alive. Forget sad; forget angry, all that Willa felt right now was broken.

The only thing that was going through her mind was that it was over. She had failed. She was not going to be able to save everyone. She had failed all of them. The overtakers had broken her. Then sitting there, crying, she realized something. This had been part of their plan all along. That's why it had been so easy to escape that night in the Haunted Mansion. That's why they hadn't tried to capture her that night at Bay Lake. That's why they hadn't come after her since. They wanted her alone, they wanted her broken, too hurt to pursue them, too hurt to even believe in herself. Willa sat up and wiped the tears from her eyes. The overtakers were wrong. She was not weak, and she was not going to let them break her. She was independent, she was strong, and she was not going to be conquered by some stupid little mind games. Willa had been bullied before, and she had learned to ignore the insults and not to let anything hurt her. That's when she realized that the overtakers were bullies, and just the same as all other bullies, she was not going to let them hurt her. Despite what they thought, despite what she had previously thought herself, she was not incapable of saving everyone by herself. She was strong. So, right this minute, she was going to start looking for her friends.

"Now, where do I start?" Willa said aloud, talking to herself. She stood up and began to pace. She tried to eliminate the places that she knew the hostages would no longer be.

Okay. She thought to herself. They're not at Pirates and they're not at the Haunted Mansion. Then, she thought of the qualities that the keepers had determined a hostage holding area would need to have.

Okay. It needs to be somewhere big, where they could fit a lot of big cells. And it needs to be a place that has a dark secluded area where no one will find them. Willa tried and tried, but she couldn't think of anything.

And it would probably be somewhere where there are a lot of animated dolls to serve as overtakers. Willa kept thinking. Again and again she went over the qualifications for a hiding place in her head.

Okay so not pirates, not haunted mansion, big, dark, secluded, lots of overtakers. Big, dark, secluded, lots of overtakers. Then it hit her.

"Spaceship Earth!" she shouted aloud. Willa grabbed her pocketbook and ran out the door. She called a taxi, and she was on her way to Epcot.

Willa arrived at the gates of Epcot and took a deep breath. She used her fake employee ID to get in, then went into a gift shop and purchased a wig, baseball cap and sunglasses so as not to be recognized. Then, she walked to Spaceship Earth. As she approached the door to the attraction, she stopped. She had no idea what awaited her behind those doors. What if it was a trap? She could end up getting captured too and then all hope would truly be lost. Maybe this was a bad idea. Maybe she should just go home. The keepers were talented and smart. They would escape eventually. Maybe they were worse off with her looking for them. She began to turn away, but then she thought of the night at Pirates of the Caribbean.

She thought about how cold it was down there. She remembered what a horrible condition the cells were in. She remembered Amanda's tortured face seeing Jess as Jez once again. She remembered her horrible screams that day at Animal Kingdom. She remembered how hard she sobbed when Jess was captured. She remembered Charlene trapped in that horrible storm. She remembered how one of her best friends had betrayed her. She remembered Ariel trapped in that cell. And most of all, she remembered Finn's little sister, coughing and shivering, trapped in that cell. She remembered Finn's cries and screams. She remembered how he fell to his knees on the way out. Willa turned back around and walked towards Spaceship Earth .She was going to find her friends and they were all going to make it out OK, even if that meant that she wasn't.

Willa walked down a long dark hallway, her "employee ID" dangling from her neck. She arrived at a door marked

"EMPLOYEES ONLY", and was about to go in when she heard voices; familiar voices.

"Well I think that's a great idea your grace." Your grace. That's what Jess used to call Maleficent when she was under the spell that turned her into Jezebel. Then, she realized that the voice was Jess'. So she was still under the spell. What idea was she talking about?

If only I had gotten here sooner thought Willa.

"Yes." said another voice. It was a voice that Willa knew all too well; a voice that sent chills through her spine. It was the voice of Maleficent. The witch continued to cackle on. Willa pressed her ear up against the door so as to get a better listen.

"By capturing that little twit's mother, we can get her close to us, easy. We've seen it with that stupid old man and his daughter. When it comes to immediate family, all you have to do is tug at the heart strings real hard, and you've got them in the palm of your hands. That girl will do anything to save her mother, even sacrifice herself. Once that happens, we'll have all the kingdom keepers and then we can kill them all off. Once we do that, there will be no one standing in our way. Once we do that, the kingdom, and the entire world, is ours." Maleficent began to laugh a horrible, evil laugh and the other overtakers and green eyes joined her.

Willa quickly realized that they were talking about capturing her mother. She involuntarily screamed and then quickly covered her mouth, but it was too late.

The laughing ceased, and she heard footsteps approaching the door. She quickly stepped away from the door and dashed around the corner. Frantically, she looked for somewhere to hide, but she couldn't find any place. She hid behind a corner wall, but she knew she would be spotted. She heard the door swing open and flinched. This was it. This was the end. She was going to get captured and all of the kingdom keepers were going to die.

"Who's there?" said a voice. Willa felt a pang of relief. They had sent Jess out. If Willa tried hard enough, she could reach to the bit of Jess' true self that lay deep down within her. Jess walked around the corner and saw Willa. Immediately, she charged at her. Willa went all clear and Jess passed right through her. Jess charged again, but Willa once again went all clear. Ok, so maybe appealing to Jess' better nature wasn't the best idea.

"Where are they?" Willa said angrily as she panted. Jess didn't answer. Instead she charged again. Again, she passed right through Willa. Willa felt sick as she realized that she was not going to get out of here easily. She needed to get out quickly and safely because she had to get home to her mom before it was too late. That meant that she was going to have to hurt Jess, at least slightly.

Willa tried to hold tears back from her eyes. She had to work quickly. Willa charged at Jess and grabbed her. Jess grabbed at Willa, and the two girls stood there thrashing around, holding each other by the heads. Tears were streaming from Willa's eyes because she knew what was coming next. Willa gathered up her strength and kneed Jess in the chest. Then, due to pain, Jess let go of Willa's head and Willa threw her to the floor. Then, quickly, before Jess could gather enough strength to get up, she ran away as fast as she could, crying the whole way.

Willa frantically ran through Epcot. She ignored the stares from innocent passer byes. She had to push a few people out of the way. Finally she reached the gates and raced out. She continued to run through Disney world and finally reached the gates. Tears were streaming down her cheeks like waterfalls. She was filled with guilt that she had hurt Jess, but right now the only person that mattered was her mother. She had to get home.

There was no time to call a taxi. It was a good thing that her house was only a short distance away from her house. Willa ran like wildfire. She finally reached her house, sobbing and out of breath. She saw that her mom's car was in the driveway. She felt a bit of relief, but it was soon destroyed by worry. The fact that the car was still in the driveway meant that if her mom wasn't home, she had already been captured. Willa walked up to the front door and knocked. There was no answer. Willa pushed the door open. It was unlocked. She walked out of the foyer and into the living room.

"Mom?" she called. There was no response.

"Mommy?"; silence.

A/N: Well that's it. Sad huh? Well, that's it. Until next time, keep calm and love kingdom keepers. Bye!
