****The same day****

****At The Docks****

Harry Hook was working at Ursula's place, she always paid him two rusted coins each week when he went to cover Uma's night shift and now that the captain was gone, she paid him three. He didn't mind working there as he was now living on the Lost Revenge permanently and someone had to take care of Uma's chores, all of them.

Also, his father had thrown him out for the last time and he wasn't going back.

Customers were less rowdy since they feared his hook apparently and Ursula was in an even worse mood since Ben's kidnapping, this time actually using her tentacles to throw out the people who annoyed her.

They were about to leave when he saw Hansel Westergaard with Clay Clayton and the Gastons, they paid well but were the most difficult customers as they drank a lot and usually ended up beating someone up.

"Morning Hook" Hansel said as he sat down and started playing with one of the napkins that were on the table.

"Morning" He simply said as he cringed when Clayton sat on a table, Ursula would throw a fit if she saw that "What do you want?"

"We are not here to eat..." Gaston Jr said snickering.

"We are here to congratulate you" Gaston The Third interrupted his brother.

"Why would I need you to congratulate me?"

"For Harriet leaving for Auradon!" Hansel said in a mocking tone "You are the last Hook child here!"

He just stood there for a few second before punching him on the stomach and saying "The house invites!"

Then he decided to back to the Lost Revenge with his crew, well not his crew as the captain was Uma but still...

The dark haired boy gave some orders here and there, mostly about how they were going to get more supplies from the docks the next day. He left all the planning to Gonzo and Jonas, something he had learnt was that even though you couldn't leave all the thinking to the crew, you had to let them think for themselves sometimes.

He then went to the room he shared with Gil, took out his vest and boots before throwing himself on his hammock and try to process the news he had heard.

Why would she leave without him or her crew?

The truth be told, hadn't spoken to his sisters in a while so he wouldn't know.

Harriet had not been on board with the kingnapping and he wouldn't visit the Jolly Roger since his father had thrown him out (again) for making a cut on Anthony's arm with his hook; for some reason Captain Hook liked the Tremaine boy and preferred him to his own son. And he hadn't spoken with CJ since his younger sister had disappeared long ago, almost seven months.

Zevon had said something about her being on Auradon but he wasn't so sure, she didn't have any interest on going to Auradon the last time they talked...or had she? She was instead interested on knowing about the repairs they were doing on the Lost Revenge.

Wait...had she wanted to seize the ship for herself?!

He now knew that the only family he had left on the Isle was his father...

Harry knew that he had to leave.

When Gil entered their room he informed him of the change of plans...

Once Uma got back.

She was his captain and he was her first mate.

Then he noticed that the sun was up and he had to prepare to go to school, he wasn't looking forward to it but he had to go there.

****At the Frollo Creperie****

Judge Claude Frollo had just finished his praying when he went around the first floor, he gave out some orders to his employees to make sure that they were not using all the supplies they had. The shipments were not as full as before and they had to make the best food at the Isle but still make profit.

He had expected his daughter to behave better and know her place but she still had let his expectations down.

Just like Quasimodo.

Claude had tried to give her the best he could at that prison, their house was on the nicer side of the Isle, he sent her to school, taught her about their God, provided for her and hired help for the house and creperie.

And she had put some herbs on his tea the day before, where she had gotten them?.

He was sure that they didn't grown there as the dome prevented all plants of growing there except for some trees and thorns.

He was going to the school to give that old fool Yen Sid a piece of his mind, how dare he suggest that his daughter go to live with that vulgar and common crowd that was reigned by The Beast. He knew that the boy had been crowned but one had to be a fool to believe that his reign would last.

The judge was walking though the market trying not to catch the attention of anyone as he was in no humor to speak to those licencious people but he couldn't notice when Gaston and Hans intercepted his path.

"Good morning, gentlemen" He simply said trying to keep his tone from revealling his annoyance.

"We have an offer to make, Claude" Gaston said "Your daugther went to Auradon, didn't she?"

"Yes"

"How did she get your permission to go? I wouldn't let any of my boys go and even less my girls" The ex-hunter said ptutting both of his hand on his hips and sighing "Still, daugthers are such a bother, don't know why I had to get four of them and have to deal with them..."

"My son went too" Hans said trying to get them back on topic and then added "Is there any chance your child would be willing to cooperate with a plan to get us out?"

"She isn't going to socialice with your licencious children" Frollo said with disgust, Claudine may be on Auradon but she had no reason to mingle with lesser people.

"But she wouldn't want to help her family?" Gaston asked stressing the last word.

Frollo huffed and coldly "My sinner daugther has no family" He made a pause to make eye contact with Gaston "If you excuse me, I have business to tend to"

The other two men seemed to catch the cue to leave him alone and so they went to the Horned King's Cualdron Shop. Frollo grabbed the bridge of his nose and decided to not go to Dragon Hall.

Frollo went back to his house and set some things on fire.

He had no daugther anymore, she made her choice and she had to live with it.

Frollo had to learn to live without the memory of the children he raised.

****At Dragon Hall****

Dr Facillier was getting things settled for the day with the help of his younger daughter, Celia, who was going classroom by classroom handing each teacher the new list of students of each class and the new curriculum.

He had been hopeful about the girl leaving for Auradon like her sister did (even though it wasn't planned) but a small and petty part of him was glad when no letter arrived for Celia.

He wanted to keep one of his daugthers with him for a while, sure he knew that Celia missed Dizzy as the young Tremaine was her only friend since she gave her that hat she always used but he also knew that Celia was happy that her friend left as Drizella was...not a good mother.

Facillier was a villain but he loved his daugthers, he couldn't fathom why some other villains didn't care for their children and even more why some others openly hated them.

He was pondering about all fifteen children that had left Dragon Hall the day before, they were going to be fine.

The voodo master hoped they did because that would mean that Isle kids could adapt to Auradon and then Freddie could ask to the king to invite her sister without the help of the Werid Science's teacher.

"Facillier!" He heard someone yell.

It was Lady Tremaine, this was not going to go pretty.

"Come in" He said as he got his feet off his desk as the old woman always told him to do, she was already angry so it wouldn't be good for him to have her yell him for more.

"Who do you think you are to allow that old fool Yen Sid take away my grandchildren?" Lady Tremaine asked in a cold tone trying to keep her features from showing her anger "Especially when I asked you to take care of him, the ideas he has been planting on the kids' heads are making them soft and eventually traitors"

"I disbanded the Anti-Hero Club just like you asked" He said calmly as he remembered how he negotiated the terms with Yen Sid, he would quickly send out the paperwork of each of the sixteen students that would go to Auradon Prep (they included Freddie as she had left unexpectedly without preparation) and Yen Sid wouldn't recuit more children for the club and would focus on teaching Weird Science. Then he started to play with the cards on his desk "And the founders of the club can't revive the group, they won't fill other kids' heads with ideas since the weak ones are gone "

Lady Tremaine seemed to catch the stressing of his words and rolled her eyes and said "Send Yen Sid back to Auradon, write the boy king and tell him you want him out of the Isle"

"I can't do that"

"Why not?"

"He came by the former king's orders" Facillier simply said as he took out a card with an image similar to Beast "And I can't ask the new one to take him away..."

There was a silence between both teachers.

"Take care of it" The old woman said "Most teachers here don't want him here anymore and the ones at Serpent Prep have always disliked his presence at the Isle"

"Or what?"

"Something will happen...take it as a warning" Lady Tremaine stressed the last word.

Facillier caught the impication and felt a fury rising on him, he took a breath and said "I won't receive warnings from someone that had her plans ruined by mice"

"Well, you got yours ruined by frogs"

Them both fell silent and then she left without giving him a look.

Celia returned to the office and smiled while asking "Anything new?"

"No" He said and dismissed her "Go to your classes, this time you aren't going to show off in Nasty Tricks and go straight to home after class"

The voodo master sighed after his daugther left, he had to think about leaving Celia with her mother for a while.

He shuddered at the thought of speaking to his ex but it would be necessary.

****At Madam Mim's Cottage****

Mad Maddy had skipped school that day which wasn't exactly unusual but she was sure that the teachers would notice when she didn't arrive.

She had reunited with her minions, or partners in crime as they wanted to be known, to plot what to do next.

Both of the Gastons, Ginny Gothel (who was risking her life and hair to be there) and the new members: Le Fou Deux and Drisha Tremaine.

At first the aquamarine haired girl had been against letting more people join them but since Anthony left they were short on people and so the Gastons had suggested they took "under their wing" the son of their father's mininion, after all the boy had been living with them for a while since Le Fou had died a few months ago, and

"What do we know?" She asked "How many left yesterday?"

"Fifteen" Ginny said "The whole Anti-Hero club, the traitor, Hal, Harriet, Melinoe, Henry and Drisha's youngest sister" The curly haired girl smirked and asked to Drizella's third daugther "Is everyone in your family a weak and slimy traitor?"

Drisha rolled her eyes and said "My idiotic younger sister was lucky to be friends with Evil Queen's daugther...and she fell a lot on her head when she was a baby"

"And your cousin?" Gothel's daughter kept nagging the Treamaine.

"He played his cards well"

"I'm sure he did, which cards if I can know?"

"Why the interest? Are you butthurt that he choose Harriet over you and now they are in Auradon?" Drisha snapped. She had been close to Anthony since they had been born two days apart, her being the older, and she had known about Ginny's attempts to break Anthony and Harriet.

"You-"

"Shut up!" Mad Maddy yelled and when both girls send her a dirty look but quieted, then the witch said "Do you think that at least one of them is going to pull a stunt?"

"A stunt for what?" Gaston the Third asked.

"To break the barrier"

"I trust Melinoe and Hadie to do so" Ginny said "They are literal gods and their father wants to leave"

"Harriet? Maybe she is working in whatever Uma is doing out of here, her brother was the squid's first mate"

"She will probably lay low, she surely wants to take her crew out and will want to be on the king's graces" Gaston Jr said and then added "Harry didn't know about her leaving, we went for a drink there with Hansel"

"And Hansel mentioned something about his little brother telling him and their father to get bent when they told him to help them get out of the Isle" Gaston the Third added putting a hand on his chin trying to remeber.

"Henry?"

"He is an idiot" Le Fou Deux said "We were lab partners after Carlos left and the guy doesn't have brain"

"But he also got better at Nasty Tricks" Ginny said crossing her arms and rested her back on a wall while thinking and then looked at Gaston Jr, who was the smarted of the twins, and added "My mother said that she heard Leonor talk with one of your sisters about them having a plan, it would be useful that you ask them about it"

"So...out of fifteen we only can put or bet on three of them? You got to be kidding" Mad Maddy said and let herself fall on a chair.

"You know most of them and they were part of that silly club" Drisha said and tthe huffed before saying "Didn't Yzla's brother escape from the Isle a while ago with Harriet's sister?"

Mad Maddy said after thinking about it "Zevon? Yes, he did...why?"

"How did they do that?"

"No one knows about how CJ got out but Zevon was swimming..."

Then something clicked in the witch's head and she stood up while saying "We need a plan, there is a small part of the barrier that is open during the cargo deliveries"

"And?"

"We need a boat" She said and put a hand on Ginny's shoulder and looked at Drisha "And we have a negotiation to held up with some pirate" Then added while looking at the Gastons "A little of brute force would be good...also you need some brotherly time with little Gil"
