Akauriana and her friends had made it to the throne room. There they notice the demonic sea witch standing alone in the weaponry chambers. A few sea creatures were afraid to pursue any further, so they stayed behind the two young mermaids. They must screw their courage throughout the sticking place. For this rate, there's no turning back for them now. The mermaids hold hands and they swim towards the chambers. Both are afraid on the inside, not knowing whatever the outcome shall befall upon them. But they push themselves into approaching the witch. Akauriana and Isabella must face their fears together. When they set tail fins on the foot of the chambers, Eraza turn to face the girls back. As a evil queen of Mermaidiana, she is impressively intimidating with the trident in hand and accessories made out of dark malice. Not a moment later, Taliah, Lee Lee, Nixie and the rarest sea creatures all have entered the throne room. She has also noticed that they all have come to fight back her cruel reign over the sea. Though to her, she believes that it'll be futile to challenge her. With her powers in her disposal, she conjured up a liquid mass of ink that fell from the ceiling and the huge bubbles damaged the floor underneath them. The little mermaid Akauriana is afraid for her friends but Eraza is not finish yet. The mass grew bigger and it multiplied into huge numbers. Then it molded into terrifying forms of monstrous men of the sea, made of ink and rocky crystals. The three mermaids were scared of the dark monsters. The creatures fought them back but then, they were easily outnumbered by the monstrous men. Akauriana and Isabella watch in complete utter terror for their friends are at the mercy of those monstrosities. Eraza called out to the young mermaids.
"Come and avenge your beloved king, whom is too weak to yield this trident." snickered Eraza in a sinister voice.
Refusing to let fear get the better of her, Isabella became the first to charge at the sea witch. But her efforts were backfired as Eraza whips her to the corner with her tentacle. Akauriana tries to help her but Eraza toss her back to edge of the chambers. Then the demonic sea witch slithers up to the princess, wrapping her up in her tentacles.
"Go ahead!" said Eraza. "Watch them die!"
She forced the little mermaid to witness her friends and everyone she ever known, fall prey to the ferocious monsters. One of the monstrous men almost bit Lee Lee's tail but luckily, she dodged it quickly. The scarier monsters spewed burning bubbles at the hard shelled sea turtles who is defending Nixie from the excruciating painful attack. Taliah is caught by the huge monster man, along with the other creatures who struggled to get free from it's grasp. Everyone who has fought for her kingdom, is getting overwhelmed by the sea witch's army. Most of the others died during the battle. Akauriana's heart is breaking from witnessing this horrible ordeal.
"How does it feel, little mermaid?" Eraza whisper in the little mermaid's ear. "How does it feel knowing that you're the one who led them all to their end? Do you see? You and I are not so different, are we now?"
Isabella gets up from the floor. She refuse to back down without a fight.
"You're wrong, Eraza!" shouted Isabella, standing her ground. "Akauriana has a good heart! She will never become like you!"
"So be it, as it may!" snarled Eraza, turning to Isabella. "But none of that matters! I have everything! I have it all for myself!"
The sea witch drops Akauriana on the floor. Isabella picks up a spear and fights off Eraza with it. She did the best she could do but Eraza had the upper hand. She overwhelmed the mermaid with her tentacles. Akauriana watches in sheer terror as Isabella is cornered by Eraza, instantly trapping her. Then Eraza proceeds to fry her with the trident. The little mermaid has to do something or else, Isabella is done for. There is a mannequin armor with a blade next to it. It happens to be near her. In a swift action, Akauriana grabs hold of the blade and charges at Eraza. But the wicked witch knew she was coming directly at her. Eraza defensively counters Akauriana's surprise attack. Then she pushed her back against the wall. Eraza is not amused by the mermaids' attempts to fight her, so she slams Akauriana across the chambers floor. Isabella quickly rushed to Akauriana's side. Eraza approached to them while powering her trident for the attack.
"You foolish girls!" scolded Eraza triumphly. "What can you possibly hope to accomplish by opposing me!? You are both nothing to me! Just pitiful young mermaids, binding helplessly for the world above!"
"Stay back!" pleaded Isabella, helping Akauriana up on her tail. "You will not win! Those who are evil will never win!"
The witch laughs at the floral mermaid's words.
"Remember, mermaids! I've given you everything you've always dreamed of!" scolded Eraza, pointing her trident at the mermaids. "And I can take it all away, just as easy."
Before she can finish off the young mermaids, this just in, a gunshot was fired out of nowhere, injuring Eraza's shoulder. It came from the bounty hunting pirate, Tristan. Alongside with him is Prince Dominick. The two mermaids were happy to see them. But how are they both breathing underwater? It turns out that the sea fairies and sea pixies were the ones who casts their spells, to give them a breathing apparatus. Thanks to Will and Paulina who went to them for more reinforcements. Since the human men cared deeply for their mermaids, they agreed to help the marine life fight against the witch's evil. Slightly enraged, Eraza turns to glare at Dominick and Tristan.
"Tristan! Dominick!" cheered Isabella. "You came for us!"
"How dare you!?" screeched Eraza in rage. "You pitiful insignificant humans!"
She aims her trident at the young men and fires deadly beams at them. Tristan urges Prince Dominick to go help the mermaids while he distracts Eraza. The prince agrees to the plan. He went on to help Akauriana and Isabella. Tristan points his sword at Eraza before she can even stop the prince.
"So let me guess! You're the sea hag whose running the show?" joked Tristan, being charismatic.
"You foul creature!" snarled Eraza as she attacks Tristan. "Get out of my way!"
Tristan wittily dodge Eraza's assault. He kept her busy long enough for Prince Dominick to get the mermaids out of harm's way. Just as Isabella told him earlier before the disastrous battle, Prince Dominick was astonished by Akauriana's mermaid tail. Even though she is happy to see him again, she still couldn't speak to him. Eraza still has the red haired mermaid's voice and also has Isabella's pendant, which angered Tristan a tad when he saw the witch holding onto it. Then suddenly, he was caught off guard and he was thrown to the wall by Eraza's tentacle. Tristan, whom is fighting her, was also slammed into the wall. Lee Lee and the other two mermaids sees this, surprise by the humans' bravery. With the trident glowing in full power, Eraza fires the attacks at the princes. During this dreadful situation, Isabella decides to take matters into her own hands, for her friend Akauriana and others. While Eraza is distracted by the two humans, Isabella swam up to her and not only took back her pendant, but snatched the skull necklace that contains Akauriana's voice. Then the flower mermaid turns to the little mermaid.
"This pendant belongs to me." says Isabella, putting on her pendant and turns to Akauriana. "And as for you, Akauriana? I believe this belongs to you."
She toss the skull necklace over to the floor and it shattered into pieces. Then a luminescent vapor rises from the remains. With the same tune from before, the vapor swirls around Akauriana's throat. Her voice has returned. When Akauriana sang, Prince Dominick remembers that voice of a girl who saved him from the stormy sea. It was her all along.
"Akauriana?" says Prince Dominick surprisingly.
"Dominick!" says Akauriana, turning to her prince. "It's really me!"
"I knew it! You're the one!" says Prince Dominick, swimming up to her. "It really was you all this time!"
"Oh you have no idea how much I wanted to tell you so." said Akauriana.
The mermaids were touched by the lovely moment. But Eraza was not. She ruined the sentimental moment as she approaches the little mermaid and her prince.
"Oh isn't this sweet!?" said Eraza in a disgusted manner. "You've got your voice back. Too bad you wouldn't live to tell him how you really feel!"
Eraza tries to destroy Akauriana and Prince Dominick. Isabella and Tristan tries to swim into this ordeal and save them but they were stopped by the mutant eel men, whom appeared out of nowhere. They apprehended the pirate and his beloved mermaid. Taliah and the mermaids sees that their friends are in danger. They slipped out of the battle with the monsters and swam over to the weaponry chambers.
"Hey, you creepy freaks! Get your hands off of our friends!" yelled Nixie as she darts to the brute eel man holding onto Isabella.
The edgy mermaid slaps the muscular eel man, freeing Isabella. Taliah and Lee Lee pull the other two eel mutants off of Tristan. Their efforts angered the mutant eel men and then they chased after the mermaids. During this time, Eraza continues to fire deadly attacks at Akauriana and Prince Dominick. One of her spells blasted the hot liquid from above the forging chambers, blocking the two youngsters. They were trapped inside the forge chambers as Eraza cornered them, her eyes pleading with hatred and evil.
"You shall not defeat me!" screamed Eraza as she went through the boiling liquid ineffectively. "I've lived so many lives! I've ravaged other underwater kingdoms! I have been given powers far beyond imagination! The power that neither of you can ever comprehended! I cannot be stopped! I will never stop! And I will give these wretched oceans of the earth, the queen they all deserve!"
She approaches the two royals at a normal speed. Prince Dominick tries to protect Akauriana from Eraza but she smacks the sword out of his hand. The wicked sea witch aimed the trident towards the prince's head and attempts to melt his face off. Before she can burn him, Akauriana took immediate action. She pulled Eraza's hair back, knocking the power loose. Thanks to that, the sea witch's attack misfires and it destroys her mutant eel henchmen. The liquid from the blast also destroyed the monsters in the throne room. Isabella and the other mermaids were impressed with Akauriana. Eraza is shocked to see that her army has been destroyed. Now the demonic sea witch is the last one standing.
"It looks like I've underestimated you all!" growled Eraza in rage. "This cannot be! It's not possible! I am overpowered by any of you!?"
Everybody huddled together and is now facing the sea witch. They all stood their ground behind the little mermaid, her prince and her friends.
"Give it up, Eraza!" shouted Taliah as she swam by Akauriana's side. "You can never win! Evil never wins!"
Eraza gets up from the ground and stood strong like a proud evil queen. From the looks of her wicked grin, she is not going down without a fight. In fact, she has one more trick up in her slimy sleeve.
"You think so?" Eraza taunted in a sinister manner. "Well you haven't begun to witness the true power I've now possessed. Here! Allow me to demonstrate it for you."
In a true demonic fashion, Eraza uses her dark powers to undergo a ominous transformation. They can all hear the sound of bones cracking very loudly and her body is twitching disturbingly, dosing herself in a mass of ink. Then the sea witch started to grow enormously inside the massive inky cloud. From the size of her growth, everyone knew they have to get out of the palace. They all swam for their lives as the gigantic mass followed behind them. Akauriana and her friends made it up to the surface. Daphne awaits for them on the boat right next to the prince's ship. Both Prince Dominick and Tristan climbed aboard the boat just in time as the sea pixies's spell wore off. Akauriana and the other mermaids swam up to the boat, assuring their safety as well as their own.
"You have to get away from here!" Akauriana cried in concern. "It's not safe out at the sea!"
"No way! I am not leaving you!" says Prince Dominick, refusing to abandon his mermaid.
"And neither am I." said Tristan as he holds onto Isabella's hands. "That sea hag can't keep me away from you, Isabella."
"Oh Tristan..." Isabella uttered while she blushes away.
Princess Daphne notices the water turning black right behind the five mermaids.
"Guys? Look!" alerted Daphne as she points out the phenomenon. "The waters are turning black!"
The sea darkened into a massive whirlpool, endangering the sailors on Prince Dominick's ship. Akauriana and the mermaids were all sucked into the strong currents and they were dragged down the whirlpool. Prince Dominick and Tristan tries to save them but they couldn't. Then the three have to get off the boat before they end up getting sucked down with it. They quickly climb onboard the ship with the sailors helping them up. While that is occurring, the sailors were stunned in great terror as a enormous figure emerge from the side of the dark typhoon. Giant tentacles cling onto the rocks. Before they all knew it, Eraza the demonic sea witch, has transformed herself into a giant kraken. She towered over the human ship.
"Now I rule the oceans!" Eraza bellowed in a monstrous voice. "You will all bow before me!"
The witch poisoned the sea with her trident. She darkened the skies into a deadly storm. In her might, she torture the sailors aboard when the ship is caught inside the typhoon. The men were fighting for their lives, terrified of Eraza's power. But for the love of his beloved Akauriana, Prince Dominick is not going down without a fight. He took charge of the crewmen and commanding all of them to stand their own grounds. Daphne and Tristan were surprised by his change of character.
"Are you sure about this, Dominick?" asked Daphne, holding on the ropes.
"It could be dangerous, mate!" added Tristan.
Prince Dominick turns to the two with a strong spirit.
"I've lost her once, I'm not going to lose her again!" said Prince Dominick as he grabs a harpoon near his side.
The strong young pirate Tristan smiles proudly as he pats Dominick's shoulder.
"I'm not going to lose mine either, my dear friend." says Tristan, nodding with strength. "No matter what happens here, I'm honored to sail the good sailing with you."
They turn to Daphne and they both took her hands.
"I'm so sorry this betrothal didn't work out as well as I thought!" Prince Dominick apologized to Daphne. "You're a lovely maiden! I really meant it! But I love her! Please forgive me!"
"It's okay!" said Princess Daphne, smiling. "To be honest, I didn't went along with it either! I did it for my kingdom as a princess, but I didn't want to marry out of love!"
"Um can we save all of that for later!?" Tristan interrupted. "Cause we have a sea witch kraken to deal with!"
They agree with the pirate. They went to help the sailors who were preparing to fight Eraza's wrath. With harpoons ready in hand, the prince commands his men to fire at Eraza's tentacles that was clinging onto the ship. The sea witch lets go of the royal vessel. The men thought they have won, but they were wrong. Instead, their resistance made her angry. Eraza proceeds to damage the ship, piercing her tentacles into the vessel like a fragile sheet of paper. The sailors were in more peril than before. Prince Dominick urges Tristan to protect princess Daphne and get her inside the ship safely. The bounty hunting pirate acknowledges his commands as he shields the princess with his life. While inside the deck, they were confronted by the witch's giant tentacles blocking their way. Tristan draws his sword and he fights his way through the kraken's grip. One of the tentacles appears out of nowhere and grabs Daphne, dragging her towards the edge of the nearly broken ship. Tristan rush to free her from the grip by stabbing it. The princess of Victoria is unharmed.
"Are you alright, milady?" asked Tristan, offering a helping hand to her.
"I'll be fine. Daphne replied, taking his hand. "How are we going to fight her? The sea witch is too powerful."
Tristan looks around while he is thinking about this wet battle. Then his eyes were met by a strange cabinet on the ends of the inner deck. Upon opening the locked door, he sees a rare huge cannon made for winning wars on the high seas. It was forged by the military's greatest blacksmiths back in those times. After gazing upon the rarest beauty of the weapon, Tristan came up with the idea. While the sailors were fighting off the kraken's tentacles, Prince Dominick helped the other group of sailors stand clear of the ship while he swashbuckling through the witch's monstrous grip. But there is no end to the spawning of tentacles and it appeared that they were all doomed. Eraza towers over them as thunder clashed the sky. Lightning flashes on, enhancing the power of the trident in her hand.
"You pitiful insignificant fools!" Eraza roared triumphantly. "I am the queen of all the oceans of the earth! You cannot challenge my power!"
She lets out a monstrous roar fitting for a kraken. Meanwhile under the sea, the mer-people are in danger by the sea witch's wrath. They all seek shelter from the bitter storm caused by Eraza. The grandmother helps the guards get the mer-people to safety inside of the emergency underground shelter next to the palace.
"Get inside the safe space! Quickly!" the grandmother urges the merfolk.
Everyone made it into the shelter safe and sound, even the princesses. King Aquarion is nowhere to be found but the third group of guards were still out on the search for their king. The grandmother checks on everyone to make sure that they all inside. All except for one particular girl. Coralline knew of this beforehand. She tries to swim out to find her youngest sister Akauriana, but the guards pulls her back from the exit.
"Your highness! You can't go out there!" warned the remaining guards. "It's too dangerous! You must stay in here!"
"But our youngest sister is still out there!" screamed Coralline.
Meanwhile inside the typhoon, Akauriana awoken from her unconsciousness. She noticed that she was held in her friend's' arms. They were relieved that she is okay, but for how long? The five young mermaids were on the rocks edge below Eraza. While enjoying her abusive power, Eraza turns to notice the mermaids holding on the rocks. Then kraken Eraza attacks the mermaids by shooting her tentacles out of the roaring currents, attempting to crush them. Akauriana and her friends quickly evade the giant tentacles, jumping from rock to rock. On the ship, Tristan and Daphne pulled the huge cannon out on the deck, where Prince Dominick and the sailors were fighting for their lives. He sees the pirate positioning the cannon to the edge of the deck and Daphne helps loads the cannonball inside it. Prince Dominick went over to help position the huge cannon towards the sea witch. As Eraza was too distracted by her attempts to kill Akauriana and her mermaid friends, Prince Dominick orders Tristan to fire the deadly cannonball straight to Eraza's exposed heart, ultimately destroying her. The kraken witch bleeds out from the deadly blow, pressing onto her chest. She painfully screeches out her death cry and watches herself dissolve into a massive mess of black sea foam. During her demise, the typhoon disappears along with the storm. The prince's damaged ship was safely placed on the shoreline. Alas the battle has won. All of the sailors cheered for their victory. But as for Prince Dominick, he doesn't feel like celebrating his victory quite yet. He is worried about Akauriana, hoping that she's alright. He is not the only one who is concerned about his beloved mermaid. Tristan too is worried about Isabella as well. Daphne stood alongside with the prince and the bounty hunting pirate for she also has hoped for the mermaids to be okay. They watched the calm waves crashed on the shore, wondering if they'll ever see Akauriana and Isabella again.
