Back at the garden, Judy was no longer worried as her silhouette passed through a moonbeam. She was getting scared.
Suddenly, the light behind her to went out.
Gasping, Judy turned to see the topiary behind her blocked with shrubs.
A green light came from another topiary. Judy looked down the pathway, and ran down. "Fru Fru? Where are you?" She called.
More shrubs blocked the topiary once she got through. Judy whirled about to face the topiary bush, blocking her way out. These shrubs weren't here before, she thought to herself.
Judy walked on forward, until she spotted Fru Fru shivering in fright.
"Judy!" squeaked the shrew. "I'm scared!"
"There you are!" Judy said in relief. She knelt down, and held out her paw for Fru Fru to climb on. "What were you-"
"Judistasia," An evil voice suddenly echoed of nowhere.
The bunny and the shrew looked up. Judy's eyes widened, spooked by the voice's echo of her own name.
"Who said that?" Fru Fru wondered worriedly.
"Shh," Judy shushed the shrew. She placed Fru Fru on her shoulder, and firmly gripped on her gown as she got up to make a run for it through a small opening.
"Judistasia," the voice called her name, again.
The topiary was blocked up by more growing shrubs. Not just that, but many thorny sticks began to stick out.
The sight of them scared Judy and Fru Fru, and they screamed. Then, Judy fell forward. She and Fru Fru found themselves on the Albatrossander Bridge, which crossed the Swaine River.
They looked back at the cursed topiary labyrinth, now unable to get back through.
Judy got up, and dusted herself off.
"Judistasia..." the voice came again.
Judy and Fru Fru looked up, and froze in terror. In the moonlight, stood before them a familiar figure holding a glowing green reliquary - Bellwether!
"Your Imperial Highness," Bellwether gave a cynical bow, as she stepped closer towards the princess. "Look what fifteen years has done to us: you, a beautiful young flower. And me, a rotting corpse!"
Judy stared at Bellwether, with horror in her eyes. Recognizing her, she whispered, "That face..."
"Last seen at a party like this one," Bellwether continued, with a smirk.
"A curse..."
"Followed by a tragic night on the ice," the sheep ominously raised up the reliquary.
Duke Weaselton carefully peeked out from behind his Mistress.
"REMEMBER?!" Bellwether allowed the reliquary to fire a stream of crackling green smoke, making Weaselton hide again.
The smoke iced all over the bridge and everything around it. It even made Judy spin, as she nearly shrieked.
"Whoa!" Fru Fru was swept off from Judy's shoulder, and ended up flying away from the Grand Duchess. The shrew landed flat back on the bridge, getting knocked unconscious.
The effects of the reliquary's smoke even caused the bridge to crack. The stone cherub above began to to transform. Its face twisted horribly, it grew fangs, ears were pointed. It had transformed into a devilish demon! The river below turned into ice.
Collecting herself, Judy looked back up at the Holy Sheep Woman. This evil magic eventually did make her remember that horrifying night when her family's lives were taken. And this was the same evil sheep who drowned in a frozen river, who tried to kill her when she escaped with her grandfather. "Bellwether!"
"Bellwether!" The sheep repeated, mockingly. Then, she growled at the rabbit. "Destroyed by your despicable family! But, what goes around comes around and around and around and around and around..." the sheep held up the reliquary as she kept saying this.
Judy just stood there frozen in terror, unsure of what was coming next. She watched as more smoke billowed out of the reliquary. Wolf demons took shape in the smoke. The same demons that had tried to kill her, Fru Fru, Nick, and Finnick on the train. They swarmed towards Judy like a pack of locusts.
They began to torment the rabbit princess, making her spin around; poking her, tearing her dress to bits, and even snatching her kokoshnik off.
"Stop!" pleaded Judy. "No! Get away! No, no, stop it!"
In the meantime, Duke was getting freaked out by this. So he climbed up the Pegasus statue, perching up there for safety. "You're on your own, Mistress!" The weasel called out. "This can only end in tears!"
Bellwether ignored her henchman completely, laughing gleefully as the wolf demons pushed Judy towards the bridge.
The bunny's back arched against side, as if she were going to tip over. A complaining Judy batted at the demons, trying to fight them off.
Then, the demons stopped tormenting Judy, and suddenly turned back into smoke before vanishing completely.
Judy then locked her eyes onto Bellwether, glaring at her with hatred and bravery. She took a step forward, facing the evil sheep in all her horror. "I'm not afraid of you!"
But Bellwether just smiled. "I can fix that!" "Care for a little swim... under the ice?"
She shot her reliquary up again, blasting the area of the bridge surrounding Judy. Cracks ran across the bridge like lightning bolts. Then, the bridge began to creak as it tilted down towards the icy Swaine. A blast of snow sent Judy backwards, making her slide down to the side.
"Say your prayers, Judistasia!"
Judy screamed, as she held onto the falling debris of the bridge for dear life.
The moaning sound of the bridge woke up Fru Fru. Her eyes widened when she saw what was happening. The evil Holy sheep woman was about to send her friend to her doom! "JUDY!" she cried. Fru Fru sprung back up on her feet, and raced over to help.
Bellwether grinned maniacally. "NO ONE CAN SAVE YOU!"
"Wanna bet?!" A familiar voice suddenly came out of nowhere.
Confused, Bellwether turned to see who was there. She unexpectedly found Nick charging towards her, and the fox punched the evil sheep in the face. This caused Bellwether to spin and fall down. But the reliquary shot out again, blasting the bridge.
Judy fell further downwards as pieces of the bridge began to crumble.
"Nick! Help Judy!" Fru Fru pointed down.
Nick leapt over the side, and dove down to save Judy. The rabbit struggled and grasped onto his paws. "Nick!" Her eyes met with the fox's, relieved to see him again. "If we live through this, remind me to thank-"
Nick hastily cut her off. "You can thank me later."
Bellwether got back up, and stared down at the fox and rabbit over the side. "How enchanting, "together again". For the last time!" She fired the reliquary at Nick.
A swarm of the wolf demons grabbed the fox, and carried him up into the air away from Judy.
"No!" cried Nick.
"You'll get a kick out of this!" grinned Bellwether.
The demons dropped him onto the Pegasus statue. Suddenly, the Pegasus sprang to life and majestically leapt off its column, with Nick still on it. "Whoa!"
Fru Fru gazed up at the Pegasus in horror.
Judy struggled to climb up the bridge. "No!" she cried, once she saw Nick in trouble.
The Pegasus flew onto the bridge. Then, it bucked Nick off its back, sending him through the air.
"Whoa!" Nick cried.
Landing on the bridge, Nick looked up to see the Pegasus rearing and neighing. He quickly rolled out of the way before it could crush him with its hooves, and slammed himself into a ledge.
Judy had managed to climb over the edge of the bridge. "Nick!" She called to him, reaching her paw out. Then, she gasped once she noticed a snickering Bellwether rushing over to her.
"Watch out!" shouted Nick. He picked up a nearby stick, and used it to fight off the Pegasus.
"Stay back!" Fru Fru shouted up at Bellwether.
But the Holy sheep woman simply kicked the little shrew aside. She grabbed the rabbit princess by the back of her dress, and sneered down to her. "Dasvidanya, Your Highness!" She threw a screaming Judy down, sending her back over the edge.
Judy managed to hang onto the edge with both paws, just as the broken bridge fell into the Swaine.
"Hold on!" Nick cried out to Judy.
Judy looked to the side to find another way up.
Bellwether grinned sinisterly down at a clinging Judy. "Finally, the last Hopps death!" She laughed. Then, she felt something bite her on the leg, and yelling out in pain. Bellwether looked down to see Fru Fru sinking her teeth into her leg.
The undead sheep blasted her with the reliquary, sending a wolf demon tumbling with her to tackle her aside. Bellwether then looked down to where Judy was, and smirked... Judy was gone!
Fru Fru gasped in terror, as she, too, assumed that Judy had fallen.
Nick looked to see Judy no longer hanging over the edge, as well. "NOOOO! JUDY!" He shouted, and ran to jump over the bridge after her. But then, the Pegasus rammed into the fox from below, stopping him from diving into the Swaine.
Nick grabbed a hold of the Pegasus' reigns as it carried him aloft in midair.
"Long live the Hoppses!" Bellwether sneered, and laughed evilly.
"Right!" Judy's voice suddenly cut the sheep off from her laugh.
Bellwether looked to the side in shock to see Judy standing there.
"I couldn't have said it better myself!" Now filled with rage and fury, the bunny charged at Bellwether. The two fell to the ground, and struggled as they fought with each other.
Fru Fru managed to fight off the wolf demon attacking her, making it vanish. She looked over to see Judy and Bellwether, along with the reliquary that rolled over aside from them.
Judy attempted to reach for the reliquary, only for Bellwether to push her back, making her tumble backwards.
Bellwether picked her reliquary up, and readied to shoot it out at Judy, again.
Thinking fast, Fru Fru raced over and leapt up, snatching the reliquary into her own hands. Bellwether tried to grab Fru Fru, just as the shrew landed on the ground, merely tripping with the reliquary.
"Judy!" Fru Fru cried out, and kicked the reliquary over to Judy.
The Holy sheep woman watched in horror as her reliquary stopped right under Judy's foot. The royal rabbit stepped on the reliquary, making it turn red and for Bellwether to cower as she suddenly felt powerless without it.
The effects of the reliquary's damage caused the Pegasus to whinny in agony as it began to crumble. As it fell to the ground in pieces, one of the pieces to hit Nick on the head. He grunted, as he fell to the ground, before blackening out.
Judy looked over at him, and gasped. Glaring at Bellwether furiously, she snarled "This is for Nick!" She slammed her foot down onto the reliquary, crushing it further.
"Give it back!" Bellwether ran over, and knelt down to stop her.
"This is for my family!" added Judy. She stepped on the reliquary again, now harder.
Bellwether tried to grab her now-damaged reliquary back. "I'LL TEAR YOU TO PIECES!" She growled.
But Judy moved it away from the evil sheep. "And this, this is for you! DASVINDANIYA!" She stomping on the reliquary one last time, completely destroying it for good.
The destruction of the reliquary caused an explosion. Judy leapt back as a large green vortex sprayed onto Bellwether. Looking up the undead sheep screamed as her most precious prized possession had finally been destroyed. To make things worse for her, the denizens of hell were unleashed, and flew down to her in circles like a beacon in the night.
As this was happening, Judy hurried over and knelt down to Nick, who was lying unconscious.
The wolf demons approached a shrieking Bellwether. The bright green light shot through her hooves, overwhelming her powers. The sheep woman's wool started to glow, and shimmered before her skin finally melted right off her body. All that was left of the undead corpse was her rattling skeleton. The sheep's skeleton cracked and unhinged, before the bones fell apart and crumbled to dust. The wolf demons all disappeared, as the dust blew away in the wind, as well, thus ending the Hopps curse forever.
