Chapter 33: Doctor Facilier's demise
Emma, Peter and Henry enter the area Regina and Facilier are fighting using dark magic spells firing them at each other canceling each other's spells out with counter attacks.
"Soon I will have Henry," Doctor Facilier declared." And he will give me my happy ending as well as write Malifacent and Lilly out of my story and kill Lebuf," he explained as he shot shadows at Regina blasting her into the air." Once I have longer need of the little child author my friends will feast on him instead of me," Regina and Emma scowled at him.
The Ghost Host and his fellow Haunted Mansion ghosts arrived to join the fight but the host held them back." Not yet," he said in a very patient tone.
Emma slammed into Facilier to the ground.
He got back up but Regina and Emma used their magic to blast him in the center and the shadow man fell to the ground catching his breath.
"Ok..ok," he said raising his hands up in surrender." You got me I give up,"
"Take your friends," Emma said pointing her sword at him." And go and I don't ever want to see your face in Story Brook again,"
A sinister smile stretched across The Shadow Man's face." I have one more parlor trick up my sleeve,"
Then he waved his hand and a flaming winged creature appeared glaring at Emma and Regina.
"Say hello to The Firebird!" Doctor Facilier chuckled.
The Firebird made a big loud screeching sound then breathed fire at them but the two dodged the flame.
The firebird came flying at Emma and Regina as Facilier watched with malicious intent as flames were everywhere as the firebird spread the fire towards the two heroes as it let out a ear bursting screeched.
The Firebird corners Emma, Regina, Henry and Peter ready to burn them down. Henry pulled out his book and began writing. " then The Firebird stopped and thought a second and then instead of finishing our heroes off he had a change of heart before fixing everything and then vanished."
After writing the statement Henry closed the book then The Firebird did exactly as he wrote. The Firebird tilted its head thinking about something then raised its head up with a screech before evaporating into smoke restoring everything it destroyed. Doctor Facilier looked furious.
The Haunted Mansion Ghosts watched on waiting to take their revenge on Doctor Facilier for cursing them to walk depressingly unable to cross over stuck in the afterlife but, they were still waiting patiently to take revenge because they cannot harm a witch doctor unless their power is taken away from them.
Facilier got ready to fire a voodoo spell when suddenly Lilly appeared and reflected it back at her father. Knocking him to the ground as his medallion fell out of his hands onto the floor but wasn't shattered "That was for leaving me for selling me off to your friends from the other side, I trusted you, I came looking for you and you turned me away and handed me over to those creepy voodoo spirits!" Lilly said in tears.
"Now darlin'" Facilier pleaded to her." I just wanted to unlock your potential and that was the only way to become a villain like me and your mother,"
"I don't want that!" She argued." That would mean I wouldn't get a happy ending!"
Facilier angrily shouted." Do you think I cared about what you wanted, no daughter of mine gets a happy ending before I do!" He growled as he aimed to cast a spell on his own daughter, but Henry pulled out a sword and reflected it back at him at hit his Madalian around his neck shattering it to pieces. Henry had defeated Doctor Facilier as well as saved Lilly's life.
"No!" Facilier screamed as he tried to piece it back together.
The Ghost Host smiled creepily, now was the time to exact their revenge on The Shadow Man.
The ghost of The Haunted Mansion approached The Witch Doctor in a very threatening way. Doctor Facilier looked up." He..Ha! Now about that little ol' spell I didn't mean to do that, I was young then a miss under standin' if ya'll will.." He said with a stutter begging the ghosts for mercy for all he has done. " maybe we can cut a deal,"
The Ghost Host then smiled." In The Haunted Mansion there is 999 happy haunts," he said grimly then bent over to his ear." And there is always room for one more, remember to bring your death certificate,"
"No!" Facilier begged." Please!"
The Hitchhicking ghosts grabbed him by his arms and dragged dragged him deep into The Haunted Mansion for his punishment. The Shadow Man was no more.
Henry looked down at the sword he had defeated him with." I won?" He said in awe.
Lilly walked over to Henry." You...saved my life," she said to him." No one has ever taken up for me before besides my mother," she said as she began to smile.
"Well..ugh.." Henry said nervously but Lilly cut him off with a kiss taking the boy by surprise." I've been waiting to do that for a long time," she said to him with a smile which made him blush a little, he did sort of like her." Nice one Romeo," Regina teased.
"I think she likes you Henry," Emma said.
Then Shriek,Peter,Jack,Jake,Ron,Kim,Hiccup, Toothless and The Ghost Host joined the four who turned to them to go and thank them for their help.
Emma and Hiccup ran over to each other and met with with a hug," nice one Juliet," Henry teased Emma which made the couple laugh.
Then Emma and Hiccup kissed and then in braised it." I love you, Hiccup,"
"Me too, Emma," Hiccup responded.
Nearby Hook woke up and regained his consciousness to see Hiccup and Emma kiss, reminding him of the love they once had and will never again have. Hook sulked away as he thought of how he messed up with Emma and has now lost her then he thought to himself then said to himself." I don't need her love anyways," then he left without a word.
Henry, Regina, and Emma walked over to the people that helped save him." We just wanted to thank you guys for all that you have done in helping us," Regina told them.
"It was nothin'" Shrek said.
Henry spoke up and said." Well..as a thank you for saving me..I want to give you all your happy endings,"
"Oh no, Henry," Kim said." You don't have to we did it because it was the right thing to do," as she was being modest.
"And I am writing happy endings for all of you because it is the right thing to do," Henry responded." I want to thank you for rescuing me and I won't take no for an answer you all deserve it," they looked at each other then Kim said." Ok if you feel that you need to then we won't stop you,"
Henry then began as he said." In fact I will star with you and Ron, Kim," he told them." Ron, you kept me company in the cell when I felt alone and Kim you volunteered to help both of my moms and you are skilled and brave fighter. So for as for your happy endings," Henry said as he pulled out his book and pen." You two have been friends for a long time and neither of you have had the guts to ask each other out so go ahead before I write,"
Ron turned to Kim and said." Kim he's right," he began to get nervous." I love you and I've always have I can't stop thinking about you," he smiled at her.
"I...feel the same way," Kim told him admiringly." You have always been there for me and well I can't picture anyone a would rather be with,"
Henry then looked down at his book and pen and began writing." And as they had told each other their secret they soon became more than friends and lived happily ever after," he wrote. Then showed them the page he wrote in the book." Thanks, buddy," Ron said
"Yeah,"Kim said in agreement." We appreciate it," then Ron ruffled Henry's hair.
"Peter," he said getting his attention." When Malcolm or better known as The Coachman took over Neverland I thought he was you, but you are different and proved it to me as well as everyone else,"
"Aw..you're to nice Henry," Peter said.
Then he placed the pen on the next page of the book and wrote." After Peter had gotten rid of the evil Coachman who once rule the place he loved, Neverland once the young prince returned home it was soon restored back to the way it was supposed to be and is once again the home Peter Pan loves," he showed Peter what he wrote.
He smiled at him and said." You would make a great lost boy I'd make you one in a heartbeat," he joked.
Then turned to Shrek and said." Alright big guy your turn,"
"Who ya, callin' big guy?" He said.
"Just messing with you Shrek you're a big green ogre that's what they see on the outside but on the inside you have a heart of gold, and that counts for everything," Henry told him.
" that's nice," Shrek said." But don't tell anyone though, kapeash,"
"Ok," Henry said with a laugh.
"But," Shrek said." Well Henry the thing is I have already found my happy ending with my true love and wife Fiona my friends Donkey and Puss In Boots with three beautiful children," he then told Henry." I already have my happy ending and I am perfectly happy,"
"Well," Henry said." If you say so and by the way you do have a great happy ending,"
"Thanks, kid," Shrek said.
"Jack Sparrow," Henry said as he turned to The Captain."
"Agh em" he coughed." Ok my mistake Captain Jack Sparrow,"
"That's better Harry," Jack said getting his name wrong once again.
"It's Henry," the boy corrected."
"Whatever," Jack responded." They both start with an H and end with a Y so it's close enough," Henry shook his head but laughs.
"Your happy ending is you will forever be remembered as greatest pirate the world has ever known," Henry said as he wrote it down.
Henry saw that Hiccup already had his happy ending and Jake said he didn't need one.
"Mister Ghost Host," Henry said." You ghosts have been looking for your happy endings for a long time," he began. Then wrote." After fulfilling their unfinished business The Ghosts of The Haunted Mansion finally are able to rest in peace,"
"Thank you..." The Ghost Host told Henry as he faded into a ball of light and the other ghosts did the same as they flew up into Heaven to be in a better place.
The other heroes said their goodbyes as they headed back to their respective homes.
Hiccup and Toothless didn't move." You know, I think Toothless and I feel like we'd rather stay here in Story Brook," Hiccup walked over to Emma." With you,"
"I'd like that," Emma said smiling finally happy and no longer though about Hook as he was only a distant memory.
