"Mom; no" was all that Willa could manage to say. She pushed away from her mother, breathing heavily. She tried with all of her strength not to cry, but she was nowhere near successful. Tears streamed from her eyes heavily. Her entire face was red. Then, her sorrow was replaced by extreme anger, and without thinking, she marched over to Olivia and punched her as hard as she could. Olivia fell to the ground, quivering like the coward she was. Then, she got down on her knees and grabbed Olivia by the shirt.

"That's what you get for messing with the people I love. Guess you should have thought of that before you took my best friends and my cousin. And you really should have thought twice before messing with my mother. That may have been the stupidest decision that you ever made."

As Olivia started to wimper, Willa realized that she was fighting the wrong enemy. Olivia was just as much a victim of the overtakers as her mother. Olivia had become so heavily involved, Willa had forgotten that she was nothing more than an innocent girl with a horrible spell on her. She was no different than her mother, no different than Megan, no different than Jess. She should be trying to help Olivia, trying to get her back, just as she was for her mother, Megan and Jess. So, Willa marched over to Cruella, looking tougher than ever. Cruella, being a coward herself, quivered and backed away. Willa grabbed her by the collor of her fur coat.

"Listen" she said through clenched teeth. "You may have been able to make me think that a victim of yours was an enemy, you may have been able to make me think that all hope was lost. Sure, you've taken everyone that matters to me in my life, but I suggest you stop. You know why? Because that little insecure girl that was an easy target, the girl you think I am, the girl I used to be, let me tell you something. That girl is gone. That girl is gone forever. Because you may be able to take my family, you may be able to take my friends, my second family, but you can't take away my dignity."

Cruella was still scared to death, as was Olivia. Willa took one last glance at her mother, then holding back her tears, turned around and marched out of the room. She walked through the dark hallways quickly, not glancing back for one second. When she arrived back outside, she stopped and let the slight breeze brush her skin, calming her down. Then, she walked over to a bench and sat down.

She needed a moment to take in what had just happened. No matter what she had just said to Cruella, no matter how true it was, no matter how confident she felt, she was just a kid. She was still just human. There was still that little bit of heart ache inside of her. Then, tears began to fall out of her eyes, and for the first time that this whole adventure had begun, she didn't try to stop them.

She let the tears fall. She let herself cry. Because, she knew, sometimes when you were upset, crying was the best medicine. She decided to grab a bite to eat, so she stood up and wiped away her tears. She took one last glance behind her, to the door to the haunted mansion. She immediately began to run in the other direction.

Willa never thought this day would come. The event seemed so unlikely, the possibility never even crossed her mind. Then again, she never thought she would fight Disney villains to help save Disney and the world. The past few years, she had discovered that the world was in no way what most people considered normal. Most people didn't think it was normal for Disney characters to exist.

Most people didn't think magic was normal. Most people didn't think that it was normal for a young girl to be chased by a Disney villain, one of her good friends and her mother. She couldn't think about that at the moment though. She had to get somewhere safe, and fast, or she might be captured by her mother and later killed. More importantly, if she didn't find her friends soon, they would be killed.

Willa finally arrived on Main Street and glanced behind her. Her mother was right on her tail. Willa made a left and found the Main Street firehouse. She quickly climbed the stairs two at a time, and finally reached the door to Wayne's apartment. She could hear her mother climbing the stairs behind her.

Thank goodness I kept the key with me after Wayne was captured. Willa thought. She reached into her pocketbook and rummaged around for the key. She couldn't find it. She continued to quickly rummage through, but she could not feel the key. Willa looked into her bag, but she still couldn't find the key. Her mother was getting closer.

"Come on, Come on!" Willa said aloud. She had the key to Wanda's apartment, why couldn't she find the key to Wayne's? She heard her mother coming through the hallway. She was done climbing the stairs. She continued looking for the key, but she still couldn't find it. She heard the swish of her mother's pants, her heavy breathing. She looked to her left and saw her mother's shoe. She had to get the key and fast.

At last, her hand gripped a Mickey Mouse key chain. She pulled it out of the bag and stuck it into the lock. She tried to turn the key, but it was stuck. The lock wouldn't move. She continued to push and turn. She looked behind her to see her mother approaching. Willa pushed and turned, pushed and turned, but still the lock wouldn't move. Her mother reached for her, her hand brushed Willa's head.

Willa was preparing for the end, when the door opened. She ran in, pulled out the keys and locked the door as fast as she could. Her mother began to bang at the door. Willa looked around for something to barricade the door with. There were two chairs at the breakfast nook. Willa grabbed one and dragged it to the door, where she leaned it on the door underneath the knob. Willa sunk onto the soft couch and smiled. Victory was, for once in this crazy adventure, her's.

Well, sort of. She didn't think her mother was going to stop trying to get into the apartment any time soon, and she still needed to figure out Philby's last clue. She was extremely thirsty from the chase, so she went into Wayne's kitchen, and grabbed a bottle of water out of the fridge. When she returned to the living room, she took Philby's clue out of her pocket book. She looked at the words again and tried to analyze them.

You'll find the next clue at the place where our team nearly fell apart.

The place where there team had nearly fallen apart? Where had that been? As far as she could remember, that had never happened. Even when the keepers had an occasional fight, never and she meant absolutely never, had it gotten so far that they had nearly fallen apart. They were like a family, and family's stuck together through thick and thin. Even when they did fight, they got over it quickly.

Willa thought hard, and came up with a possibility. The clue could be referring to the Nemo lounge in Epcot. When Wayne was missing and Charlene and Maybeck had seen that video in Mission Space, the keepers had nearly fallen apart. They didn't trust each other because they were all worried about who the traitor was that Wayne was reffering to in the video. Eventually the traitor had turned out to be Wayne; well in a way.

Forget that, she knew that all of that already. The clue couldn't refer to the Nemo lounge. There was no way the overtakers would be able to hide all of the captives in there secretly. What else could the clue refer to though? It just didn't make sense. Willa thought hard, but she just couldn't figure the clue out. She could think of plenty of fights the keepers had gotten into, but none that could be considered the team nearly falling apart. Some of the fights were considerably larger than others. Like the time in Animal Kingdom when Amanda had been captured. All of the remaining keepers, especially Finn, had gotten so mad at Charlene.

Willa gasped. That was it. That was the answer. She had to go back to the Animal Kingdom and find the tree where Amanda had been captured. She grabbed her bag, and was about to walk out the door, when she became aware of her surrounding again. There was a banging at the door. Her mother was still trying to get in. How was she supposed to find her friends and save their lives, if she couldn't even get out of Wayne's apartment.

Willa yawned. She was tired. Exhausted was the better word for it. She hadn't had a peaceful, worriless, good night's sleep since before the last day of school. Willa went into Wanda's old room and climbed into the bed. She put her head phones in her ear and turned on a bedtime playlist, so as to drown out her mother's banging.

If there was one thing Willa was right now, it was scared. She didn't know what was going to happen to her friends. Forget what happened to her. The keepers were family, and her family mattered more to her than herself.

Still, after the days events, Willa felt filled with a new determination. She felt like she had broken out of a shell, left the old her behind, and was now a whole new Willa. She didn't feel weak or vulnerable. She didn't feel destined to fail. She felt strong. She could save everyone and she was going to. It seemed as if her mother becoming a green eye was in a way good. Or at least, it's effects on her were. The situation had made her so angry, that she was stronger and felt filled with new faith. She felt more determined than ever. Willa climbed back into the bed, rested her head on the pillow, and drifted off to sleep with a smile on her face.

A/N: Well that's it for now. What did I tell you? My BFFL and I are making a movie out of this next summer and I'm playing Willa.
