Hey, guys. Welcome to the next chapter of Hilda and Stitch. I hope that you guys will enjoy the new chapter. Oh, and before anyone ask, yes, I did see the announcement about the Lilo and Stitch Live Action Movie, and while I'm a bit doubtful that it will be any good due to the past horrible Disney Live Action Remakes, Stitch actually looks great in Live Action, and they didn't seem to forget about how Stitch acts and his antics, so I'm going to try and be optimistic and check out the movie when it comes out, hopefully, it will be just as good as the original or at least not dogshit horrible. Also, for Louie and the Guest Viewers in Chapters 23 and 24, here are my answers to your reviews since I can't PM you all:
Here's my answer for Guest Viewer in Chapter 23:
Hilda and Stitch are more connected with my American Dragon Story, and both stories are happening roughly at the same time, and yes, they will appear soon.
Here's my answer for Guest Viewer in Chapter 23:
No, I don't, sadly enough, and to be honest, if they want to read it, they can if they want to. Nothing is stopping them from doing so unless their parents monitor their internet use, and if they do, well that's unfortunate.
Here's my answer for Louie in Chapter 23:
Because I wanted to do the Laughing Mermaid in S2 instead of S3
Here's my answer for Guest Viewer in Chapter 24:
Yes, and that's why I said that they are not idiots because they won't intervene in something so incredibly dangerous. Yes, Hilda is brave and has done reckless things, we all know this, but even she has limits, and going in between two people fighting with that much power is one of them, and while Hilda is a Witch, she's not experienced enough yet to stop a fight like that. Besides, even if they tried to intervene, Joanna and the others would've stopped them. I'm sorry, I didn't know I had to be so specific with Pleakley. Again, Hilda is being cautious about this and does not blindly trust her 100%. She's giving her the benefit of the doubt, and Hilda literally saw a Frakenstrike Style Nisse, and there were drawings of Nisse's Anatomy. It's perfectly understandable for anyone to think that way.
The reason why Hilda called it evil is because she assumed that Victoria brought a Nisse back to life and experimented on him. At least with Stitch, he was made from scratch, and yeah, she didn't, but Hilda assumed from what she saw. Hilda was hopeful that Victoria really did change for the better, she was just being cautious and worried. Being nice isn't the problem, it's 100% being trustful of Victoria that's the problem. Hilda is smart, but she is a bit naive in this episode and admits that in the show.
And that's what Hilda was doing, being careful while giving Victoria the benefit of the doubt, but seeing Fred made her think she was up to no good again. Hilda in the first chapter is naive and naturally more trusting of people than Current Hilda, so it's why she blindly trusted and loved Stitch. Hilda still has that quality, it's just past experiences have sharpened her a bit, which is a good quality for a person to have. If you don't agree with what I said, then let's agree to disagree then.
Thanks, I wanted to include them, so I decided to give Pleakley and Jumba reasons to come, and yeah, I figured Louise knowing the difference between the Woff Genders makes sense. Yeah, Jumba is getting really interested in the magical side of Earth and wants to study all of it. Yeah, even before Louise got her Dragon Powers, she was prone to getting airsick. It sucks, yeah. Thanks, I had to bring it up because that theory is way too funny to me.
I know Baba is a Girl, and to give out explanations, the Troll Mom and her Son in Chapter 24 aren't Trylla and Baba. The Troll Mom and her Son were the Trolls from the Troll Rock Episode. Why, you may ask? I figured it made sense to have Hilda and the gang know more than two Trolls. Yeah, wasn't able to find a way to add the line, unfortunately.
Yeah, it is, I wanted to show that even Dragon Masters who haven't unlocked their Dragon Genes can still be teachers. Drake was more talking about the wall keeping Trolls back, not other magical creatures as they can easily sneak or fly in and out of Trollberg whenever they want. Yeah, I know it never happened in Cannon, but in my story, Troll Activity has been more active over the years due to a variety of reasons, and the Bellkeepers only go down to help if the Trollberg Safety Patrol needs help. With all of the ten Trollberg Towers ringing at once, every single day, nearly 24/7 is bound to reach the mountain. I'm mostly talking outside of the mountain.
Because Erik is getting suspicious of Hilda and thinks she is a Troll Spy or something and doesn't want Logan to tell Hilda about anything that he does. Also, Erik doesn't see Hilda as a huge threat...yet...but Erik does see her as a threat regardless. He just doesn't have enough information to understand the situation carefully...yet. I know, but I wanted to give Hilda's Group a name since I realized that I haven't given them one yet, which is pretty weird of me to do because they honestly deserve a name. After all, they are practically superheroes of Trollberg and are not gonna stop anytime soon, especially when Stitch's family comes.
Hilda, Stitch, Jumba, and Pleakley had taught their friends and family how to fly spaceships in between chapters in case an emergency occurs where they need to fly a spaceship. The codenames were cool and all, but I decided not to use them for simplicity's sake. Yep, and it was harmless freezing, so there would be no negative consequences, and the reason why Louise had to freeze them was so that the Guards wouldn't see them and report to Erik.
When they were frozen, their brains were frozen too, so they would have no idea what just happened or how much time passed until they were thawed out, and the guards would question how they were frozen, yes, but they would have no idea that it was Louise who froze them because they didn't see her or the others. Also, I did exaggerate how loud the bells would be to up to drama, and the reason why it was so loud is because Hilda up it up to its max limit. I'm glad you like how the chapter ended up overall.
Here's my answer for Guest Viewer in Chapter 24:
Animals are semi-sentient as stated by scientists doing years of study. Yeah, animals do hunt and kill to survive. To be fair, Twig won't be much of a meal to Spider Frog due to him being small. At best, he could be a light snack. The machine thing was an example of sentient intelligence, not that he had to do it to prove his sentience. Spider Frog can clearly think and feel like a Human. Humans eating animals is not that wrong if it's out of survival. The fact that the Spider Frog didn't even bother to eat Joanna and Hilda even if they taste bad shows that he's not eaten out of survival. Animals do have feelings and thoughts, but it's mostly out of instinct as they don't have the same level of emotional intelligence or cognitive intelligence as humans, so they can't be held accountable for their actions as it's usually out of survival or acting on their primal emotions. Spider Frog, however, is clearly way more intelligent than the average animal as it can talk, think, and feel like a Human. Anyway, if you don't agree with what I said, then let's agree to disagree then.
Here's my answer for Guest Viewer in Chapter 24:
I'm sorry. I don't mean to disrespect you, but no animal likes being killed and eaten.
That's about it...anyway, I don't own anything, except for my OCs and the OCs Roland Trenton and Amun belong entirely to drakin6345, the OCs Logan, Edward, Robin, Astrid, and Ivy belong to 9655, and the OC Daemon belong to Travis Moon/Messiah of authors.
NOW LET'S GET ON WITH THE STORY!
{Hilda and Stitch-Season 2-Episode 9: The Beast of Cauldron Island}
"Ah, what a night to be alive." A content Woodman says as it is a normal and beautiful night in Trollberg as we cue over to the Trollberg Ocean and we see the Woodfolk hanging around on his boat, doing his daily midnight fishing as he feels something pull on his fishing line and eagerly tried to pull it up but then yelped in surprise when his fishing rod suddenly got yanked out of his arms and splashed down into the water, much to his annoyance as Woodman sighed heavily and was planning to back into his Ship's Cabin to find his other fishing rod, only for the water around him to shake violently as a giant tentacle suddenly shoots out of the ocean and made its way over to attack Woodman's Boat with said person screaming in shock and fear as we then cue over to Hilda and Stitch's Apartment as we zoom inside and we appeared at Hilda and Stitch's Shared Room as we see the famous duo sleeping in their bunk beds with Stitch being sprawled around on his bed and snored lightly with his pillow and blanket kicked around as Hilda was sleeping above him, but instead of looking content and happy, she was instead moaning in distress and was tossing and turning at her bed while sweating as her body keeps glowing blue and we then zoom into her mind.
~[Hilda's Mindscape]~
"Huh? Where am I?" A bewildered Hilda asked while standing up from the invisible floor and looking around as she realized that she was once again stuck inside of the familiar giant black void filled with dark gray storm clouds and blue lightning. "Oh, no, not this place again." A moaning Hilda says while biting her lip nervously and clenching her fists as she then takes a deep breath and slowly turns around to see the familiar giant blue magical cage placed a few feet away from her, except that it looked heavily damaged as it was covered with multiple large dents and scratches as the Mysterious Troll inside panted heavily and reached over to the grip the worn and nearly destroyed bars as she narrowed her glowing mystic blue eyes at her. "What do you want?"
"F-Freedom..."
"W-Who are you? What are you?"
"All...will...be...explained...when you...let me...out..." The Troll says while trembling and grunting as, while she was scared, Hilda couldn't help but feel sympathy for the Mysterious Troll and walked closer to the giant blue magical cage as the blue-haired girl stuck her hand inside, and reached over to place her hand on the Troll's arm, causing it to flinch, but instead of trying to break it or rip it off her body, the Troll instead reached over to grab Hilda's hand and said person was surprised by how gentle the Troll was being, even though her arms were made of stone that weirdly felt organic at the same time. "P-Please, let me out...H-Hilda. I-I can't...take being stuck in your mind...anymore...let me out..."
"I...I...I will think about it." Hilda says before feeling the Troll tighten her grip on her arm as she gives her a serious glare.
"Don't think, just do...once you release me...you will find out the truth...about Mother...Father...about your true self..."
"True Self? What do you mean by that?" Hilda asked with a surprised and worried tone as the Troll eyed her up and down.
"Your body...began changing...I will be free soon...when the time comes...please let me out...PLEASE LET ME OUT!" The Mysterious Troll pleaded panickedly and worriedly as she then proceeded to yank Hilda over and gave her a mighty headbutt across her head.
~[Real World]~
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaassssssaassssaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" Hilda screamed fearfully while waking up from her sleep as she sat up from her bed and cradled her beating heart with her eyes and arms glowing a mystic blue as, suddenly, Stitch climbed up the bunk bed to land in front of her.
"Bad dream again?" Stitch asked with a concerned yet knowing tone while wearing his pajamas, which consisted of a light blue nightcap and a long-sleeved light blue nightgown that reached down to his feet.
"Y-Yeah, the same dream again," Hilda says with a heavy sigh after calming down from her dream as she wore her pajamas, which consisted of a long-sleeved white shirt with a dark blue collar/cuffs, long blue pants, and no shoes as she had her long blue hair tied up into dual long braids.
"Hilda, you glowing." Stitch pointed out while pointing over at her glowing blue hands and arms as Hilda noticed this, and closed her eyes as she took a deep breath and her eyes and hands stopped glowing a mystic blue energy as he gave her a serious and concerned look. "Hilda needs help."
"Yeah, I hate to admit it, but you are right, Stitch. Something strange is going on with me, and I'm going to need help." Hilda says with a heavy sigh with Stitch going over to cuddle against her to comfort her as we cue to the next day, and we see a dressed-up Hilda, Stitch, and the others hanging out at Matilda's House with the blue-haired girl floating above a table and had an energy blue glow covering her body as Tildy stood before her and raised her glowing blue hands as she was currently magically scanning her body and a worried Logan, Frida, David, Jumba, and Pleakley stood near her as the Aliens didn't bother wearing their Earthly Disguises this time around.
"Hilda, you should've told us about these weird dreams earlier." A stern Logan says as Hilda sighs heavily, but otherwise, doesn't move as requested by her Witch Mentor.
"I know, but I didn't think that it was this serious until I noticed that I was having these weird dreams for weeks now and I now realize that maybe those weren't dreams after all."
"If that is true, then that would explain all of those weird moments that you had," David says as the others nod.
"Yeah, like being affected by the Trollberg Bells."
"That Troll trying to kill you."
"When you sleepwalked during the Sparrow Scout Field Trip at the Forest of Nott."
"When you beat up Princess Celisis in the Demon Dimension." Frida, Stitch, Logan, and Pleakley say as Jumba rubs his chin thoughtfully.
"With all of this data, those dreams that you have been having can't be a coincidence. When did you start to have these weird dreams again, Blue-Haired Girl?"
"Shortly after the Troll Circle Incident," Hilda said just as the Elder Witch finished scanning her entire body with her magic and lowered her down onto the table as she then gasped in shock and awe. "What? What's the prognosis, Master Tildy?"
"Your tissue, your organs, your entire physical structure is changing," Tildy says, much to Hilda and the others' shock as the Elder Witch then raised her glowing blue hands and projected a magical holographic image of Hilda's insides as the Trollberg Justice Patrol noticed that her bones, organs, and innards have been magically changed. "But every system is still functioning somehow."
"And it's changing into what exactly?" Logan asked anxiously as Tildy shrugged.
"I don't really know. Some kind of organic stony alloy. Stronger than titanium or carbon steel. Harder than diamonds."
"Holy crap, my whole body is stronger than most pieces of metal on Earth?" A stunned Hilda asked as Matilda nodded.
"Seems like it. You can literally be run over by a pack of Trolls and be left fine afterwards."
"Like meega," Stitch added as Tildy nodded again and turned to Hilda.
"So, other than those strange dreams that you were having, have there been any magical accidents that you've had of some sort recently? Like a Rogue Witch cursing you, a Marra messing with you, or touching any strange magical-like artifacts?"
"Nope, nothing like that honestly."
"Then I can only assume that...whatever this is has always been a part of what you are."
"A part of what she is?" Pleakley asked anxiously as Tildy nodded and turned to Hilda again.
"So, I wasn't really paying much attention to what you and the others were talking about, but you and the others came to me because you have been having nightmares about a Troll in a cage, right?" Matilda asked curiously as Hilda nodded.
"Yeah, they have been a pain in the neck, and like Stitch and the others said, weird things have been happening to me. Ever since I've been having those strange dreams, my hands and eyes glowed blue but here's the thing, they have been happening even before I turned into a Witch. I thought it was my magic leaking out, but now? I'm not so sure."
"Hmmm, Hilda, I have to ask, do you recognize this kind of pill?" Matilda asked while going over to her cabinets to pull out some pills, and pulled out one of them as it showed a glowing blue pill.
"Uh, no, not really," Hilda says as Matilda then tosses one of them over to her.
"Can you be a dear and lick it for me?" Matilda asked as Hilda raised an eyebrow confusedly and licked it as her eyes widened in recognition.
"Holy wow, that thing tastes like one of those blueberries that Mom puts in my Seacucumber Sandwiches," Hilda says as Matilda sighs somberly.
"Sweetie, I hate to say it but that's not a blueberry. Those are Magical Supressent Pills. Design to repress a Magical Being's power. I know what they are because...your Mother came to me a long time ago and asked me to give her these pills for you."
"Wait...she knew?" Stitch asked with a shocked look as Logan frowned.
"Wait, you knew? You knew this whole time what was going on with Hilda?"
"Yes, unfortunately. I'm sorry, but your Mother asked me to swear to secrecy about this. I can't tell you what you are exactly, Hilda. This is something that you have to discover yourself or your Mother will tell you." Matilda says with an apologetic frown as Hilda looks surprised, betrayed, confused, sad, and angry by what Joanna did as she then takes a deep, shaky breath.
"How long?"
"How long until what?"
"Until whatever happens to me...happens." Hilda elaborated as Tildy shrugged.
"At this rate, the progress should be complete within two, maybe three days, until you regain your Magical Genes, and another thing is that these pills worked well for little kids but for a girl who is close to hitting puberty? These pills are ineffective, which explains why you have these bursts of weird magical power. Your magical side is trying to get out. I tried to warn your Parents about it, but they refused to listen."
"Oh, great, so both my Parents have been lying to me all of my life? I can't believe this." Hilda says with an angry and annoyed tone while getting down onto the floor, and she begins pacing around furiously. "So, let me get this straight, I've been having weird magical nightmares because the magical side of my body is leaking out and all of this is thanks to my Parents, who have been drugging me to repress it for years, and I only have three days before my magical genes burst out?" An alarmed, confused, and somber Hilda asked as Matilda nodded.
"I'm afraid yes, my dear, but I do promise you that they had good intentions."
"Good intentions? How is hiding who I am from me for years good intentions?" Hilda huffed angrily with her eyes and hands glowing a mystic blue as she turned around to storm off, and Stitch and the others tried to follow after her as we then cue to the next three days later, and we see the Trollberg Justice Patrol hanging out at the Trollberg Harbor with a grumpy and glaring Hilda sitting on a rock with Stitch sitting next to her as Pleakley sat around on a beach towel with Logan, Jumba, and Marcus as Frida was currently jamming her hands into the ocean and was practicing her magic as Louise and David were trying to find and pick up some seashells.
"Os, Hilda, wow rea yougga hoka pu? (So, Hilda, how are you holding up?)," Stitch asked Hilda, who frowned and placed her head on her knees as she frowned.
"Other than finding out that I'm possibly a Human/Magical Creature Hybrid and my Parents had lied to me my whole life, I'm just peachy."
"Oh sokka," Stitch says sadly with his ears lowering a bit as Hilda flinched and gained a guilty look as she sighed heavily.
"I'm sorry for snapping at you, Stitch. I'm just...so angry and confused. Even after three days, the revelation of who I truly am still overwhelms me." Hilda says with Stitch crawling over to give her a comforting hug as Logan turns to her.
"Have you told your Mum about this?" Logan asked with a worried frown as Hilda shook her head.
"Nah, I tried to but...I could never find the courage to confront her about this..."
"Why?" Marcus asked curiously as Hilda gained a concerned and anxious look.
"I don't know. I have a lot of mixed feelings about Mum. I hate that she and Dad hid this truth from me, but I'm so curious to find out who I truly am, but I'm scared of what I find out. What if it's really bad? What if I turn into some kind of giant monster and kill and hurt everyone I see? Including you guys." Hilda says with teary eyes and a frown as Stitch hugs her tighter.
"Hilda never see Stitch as monster, so neither would Stitch."
"That goes for all of us," Pleakley says with a warm smile while wearing his Earthly Disguise, which consists of him wearing a long blonde wig that reaches past his shoulders, pink eyeshadow, and pink lipstick as his outfit consists of a dark pink sunhat, a blue scarf wrapped around her neck, a long-sleeved pink dress that reaches down to his legs, a blue sash wrapped around his waist and a pair of pink high heel shoes.
"Indeed, no matter who you are, Blue-Haired Girl, we would accept you for who you are," Jumba says with a smile and a nod while wearing his Earthly Disguise, which consists of him having a black mustache as the alien genius wears a black baseball cap that he wears backwards, black sunglasses that have four lenses on it, a long-sleeved high-collared black opened jacket with a white tank top underneath, a white belt with a silver belt buckle, black jean shorts, and a pair of black shoes.
"Jumba's right. You are our friend, Hilda, never forget that." Frida says with a warm smile while turning to Hilda as David nods.
"Yeah, we got your back no matter what happens."
"You accepted me for being a Dragon, so it would be hypocritical of me if I don't accept you for who you are," Louise says with a soft, sincere smile on her face as Logan reaches over to rub Hilda's hair.
"We all love you, Hilda, whether you are a Unicorn, an Elf, a Troll, or something in-between. Nothing would change the love and bond that we all have for you because you helped change our lives for both the better and the worse, but even with all of the hardships that we had with you, there's nothing that we would change for the world, even with what we found out three days ago." Logan says while kissing her forehead as Hilda teared up again and reached up to brush away her tears as she smiled lightly.
"Thanks, guys. I love you all so much." Hilda says while sniffling before groaning in disgust as Stitch proceeds to lick her face. "Stitch, stop!" Hilda whined while pushing a giggling Stitch away as everyone laughed.
"Well, now that we have that out of the way, when are you going to talk to your Mum about who you truly are?" Frida asked with a serious tone as Hilda sighed heavily, and stood up from the rock, and jumped off to land on the ground.
"I'm going to have a serious talk with my Mother by tonight. Since I'm close to regaining my Magical Genes anyway, I might as well rip off the band-aid and confront her about hiding the truth from me." Hilda says as everyone nods, and the blue-haired girl then notices what Frida is doing as she walks over to her. "Anyway, I wanted to ask this earlier, but what are you doing?"
"Oh, remember the type of magic that Tildy and Kaisa taught us shortly after we saved Trollberg from Erik's Stupid Bell Plan? The wave of forming a strong enough understanding with a living thing that one might form a kind of mental connection?" Frida asked with her eyes closed while rummaging her hands around the ocean, trying to connect with the sea life with her magic as Hilda perked up.
"Oh, yeah, I remember that magical lesson."
"Yeah, and you were able to use that type of spell on Stitch instantly with no trouble whatsoever," Frida says with a semi-jealous/semi-impressed tone as she remembered when Tildy and Kaisa taught the girls how to try and form bonds with their Familiars and Potential Familiars as Hilda used it on Stitch, with his permission of course, and she was able to instantly set up a physic connection between each other, but it only activates when Hilda focuses on it, which she was thankful about as the inside of Stitch's mind is just as destructive and chaotic as he is on the outside.
"Well, to be fair, Stitch and Hilda have been together for a year now and have formed a pretty strong bond with each other, so it makes sense why the spell worked for them instantly." A shrugging Louise pointed out, familiar with the type of spell that Frida was talking about due to the Magical Books that Drake had given her to study for a while.
"And that spell is usually for Warlocks and Witches to be able to have intimate bonds with their Familiars. You are just having a bit of trouble because you haven't found your Familiar yet, but don't worry, I'm sure that you will eventually. You just have to find the right familiar to bond with." Logan says reassuringly as Frida smiles warmly and nods, but then the Trollberg Justice Patrol is surprised to hear some loud shouting nearby and turns their heads to see Erik and Gerda standing on the Trollberg Docks as they are dealing with a huge group of angry and yelling Sailors as Hilda and the others shared a serious look and nodded as they went over to see what was going on.
"Now, now, please everybody, one at a time," Erik says while raising his hands in a calming gesture as one of the Sailors points at him angrily.
"You prattle on about Trolls but the Lindworm of Cauldron Island is pulling down ships willy nilly in our harbor for the past three days and nobody lifts a finger to help!" The Sailor snapped furiously while holding up a wanted poster of the Lindworm with everyone ranting angrily about the situation as Erik rubbed his chin thoughtfully and hummed.
"So, the Lindworm has been destroying your ships, you say? And no one has heard your piteous cries for help?" A glaring Erik asked while turning around and walking over to place his leg on the crate as he flapped his cape heroically.
"Oh, his exact words were, 'Nobody lifts a finger to help', sir, but close enough." Gerda corrected while writing down everything that the Sailor said as the Sailor glared at them angrily and placed his hands on his hips.
"So what are you going to do about it?"
"Good Sailors of Trollberg, I, Erik Ahlberg of the Trollberg Safety Patrol, will lead a charge on Cauldron Island. We shall capture the dreaded Lindworm and make this harbor safe again." Erik says heroically with everyone cheering loudly at this as the Trollberg Justice Patrol shared a worried and confused look.
"But this doesn't make any sense. The Lindworm doesn't care about ships. She likes plants." Louise pointed out as a doubtful David turned to her.
"Are you sure about that?"
"She's right, David. We met the Lindworm herself, and while she is a bit battle hungry, she would never just randomly destroy ships for no good reason." Hilda pointed out as Stitch nodded.
"Ih. Either Sailors are lying and trying to attack her on her island or Lindworm is being framed."
"We need to get to the bottom of this," Logan says with a serious tone as everyone else nods and turns back to Erik as he is still talking with the group of Trollberg Sailors.
"This mission requires the utmost courage!
"And boats."
"Boatloads of courage, you mean?!"
"No, I mean, actual boats, sir," Gerda stated bluntly as Erik rolled his eyes but said nothing as he stepped forward with a charismatic grin on his face.
"Well, then, good people of Trollberg, we'll need your help! Rest assured that, together, we shall prevail over the terror of the Lindworm! Now let's get to work!" Erik screamed with all of the Sailors of Trollberg cheering loudly and turned around to walk away and prepare for the battle as the Trollberg Justice Patrol then stepped forward to talk with the Trollberg Safety Patrol.
"Erik Ahlberg, we need to have a serious talk with you," Hilda says with a glare as Stitch stands beside her on all fours in his Dog Disguise, and the others flanked them with scowls on their faces.
"Look, we know the Lindworm personally, and she would never destroy ships," Frida says as Jumba nods in agreement.
"Indeed, and Jumba has been studying the Lindworm for a year now and Jumba noticed that she had hardly ever left Cauldron Island other than to do a fly-by, and she has lived on Cauldron Island for a long time. Why would she attack the Trollberg Boats now out of nowhere?"
"Yeah, plus, that Sailor said that the mysterious monster has pulled all of the boats underwater, and last time that I checked, Dragons can't breathe underwater...right?" Pleakley asked Louise, who did a so-so gesture.
"Well, my Dragon Master-I mean, I have read books about Dragons and while there are a few Dragons born with gills like Atlantean Dragons, I can safely say for certain that the Lindworm 100% doesn't have gills, so she can't breathe underwater."
"Besides, if the Lindworm really did attack those boats, then the boats should be covered with scorch marks due to her fire breath." Logan pointed out as Marcus nodded.
"So all of this proves that the Lindworm can't be the one who attacked those boats."
"Well, not exactly, but the others did provide some good points," David says as Erik scoffed and rolled his eyes as he clasped his hands together.
"You are missing the point, guys. The Lindworm is a monster and I promised the people to slay the monster. That's my duty as a member of the Trollberg Safety Patrol. To capture and destroy monsters to protect the people of Trollberg...maybe monsters like you." Erik added quietly while glaring down at the famous duo as they were able to hear what he said and grew angry and wary as Hilda glared angrily and Stitch growled as he bared his teeth.
"What do you mean by that?" Hilda asked as Erik bent down to her eye level to glare at her.
"You know what I mean. I have no idea who you and your friends truly are but trust me, I will find out soon, and when I do, I will take you and the rest of these freaks down." Erik says with a scowl while standing up as Hilda, Stitch, Jumba, Frida, and Logan glare at him angrily as Louise, David, Pleakley, and Marcus share worried looks. "Now, if you can excuse me, I have a mission to run, and if you know what's good for you, Logan, you will also attend the mission. Anyway, Deputy Gerda? Get me those boats."" Erik ordered Gerda, who nodded as they left the Trollberg Docks, and Hilda fumed as she kicked the wooden floor below her, and her eyes briefly glowed a mystic blue as it got cracked.
"Ugh, I wouldn't be surprised if Ahlberg was the one who sunk those ships himself just so that he could make the grab for glory."
"Ih, Erik evil and vain enough to do so. Stitch bets there is no monster at all." Stitch says while standing up on his hind legs as he didn't have to bother trying to act like a dog anymore due to everyone leaving the Trollberg Docks.
"I'll take that bet." A familiar voice rang out as Hilda and the others flinched in surprise as they glanced down at the water to see Woodman's head floating around, and the Trollberg Justice Patrol were quick to turn around as they ran over to appear at the Trollberg Beach as Hilda then raised her glowing blue hands and used her telekinesis to latch onto the Woodman's Head as she floated it over to land in her arms and Stitch and the others crowded around him.
"Woodman? What happened to your body?"
"A monster snatched my boat three days ago. Luckily, I used my head and escaped as I'd been floating around in the Trollberg Ocean for days now. Anyway, thankfully, I can still feel my body out there, so it seems that the monster didn't destroy it-Oh, wait, hold on, I can feel something tickling my feet right now." Woodman says while laughing a bit, which creeped out Hilda and the others as they had never heard the Woodman laughed before and it sounds a bit unnerving in their opinion. "...Hah...hah...hah...okay, it stopped now."
"So, Ahlberg is wasting his time going after the Lindworm when there's actually a dangerous monster out there?" A worried Logan asked as Woodman stared at him deadpannedly.
"I have no idea what you are talking about, but yeah, sure, whatever."
"Man, and I thought dealing with that perverted Ghost flirting with my Fiancee yesterday was going to be the only weird adventure that we will deal with this week." Logan pointed out with a surprised tone as Hilda then stepped forward with a serious glare on her face.
"Alright, gang, it looks like we have a new mission on our hands. We need to find out who's really sinking those boats." Hilda says as Louise raises her hand.
"And warn the Lindworm about Ahlberg."
"And retrieve the Woodman's body," Frida added as Pleakley raised his hand.
"But how are we going to be able to go to Cauldron Island when Hilda and Stitch's Spaceship is under maintenance?" Pleakley asked worriedly as Stitch took the spaceship to fly around the world in an epic joyride with Tontu, Twig, Ivy, Astrid, and a reluctant Alfur, and ended up accidentally crashing into the Trollberg Woods when they came back as, thankfully, Jumba promised to fix the spaceship by the weekend.
"And Jumba doesn't think that flying around on Hilda and Frida's Magic Broomsticks nor Tontu will be able to take us to Cauldron Island through Nowhere Space, or Louise flying us there one by one." Jumba pointed out as Marcus hummed thoughtfully before glancing out at the Trollberg Ocean as an idea popped into his head.
"I got it, why don't we have a Water Spirit take us to Cauldron Island like what we originally planned to do a year ago when we first met the Lost Clan?" Marcus asked as Hilda perked up and nodded.
"Great idea, Marcus," Hilda says while reaching up to grab her earring as the blue-haired girl proceeds to rip it out of her ear, causing it to magically transform into its true form as Hilda then mounted onto her magical broomstick and turned to the others. "Stitch? Come with me. We are flying back to our apartment to pick up Alfur and Astrid. The rest of you? Wait for us here. We should be back in fifteen minutes." Hilda instructed as everyone nodded, and Stitch went over to jump onto the Magic Broomstick as she then took them up into the air, and we see the famous duo flying through the city of Trollberg as, eight minutes later, they were able to appear back at their apartment and flew down to land in front of it, after making sure that there was no one around as the blue-haired girl then twirled her Magic Broomstick around and it transformed back into its disguised form as she proceeded to put on her magical accessory again and Hilda and Stitch then made their way inside of the building as they ran up to arrive at their apartment and opened the door as the famous duo walked in and spotted a panting and groaning Joanna sitting on the couch as Roland was preparing their picnic together in the dining room with the help of Alfur and Astrid. "Uh, Mum, are you okay?"
"Hmmm? Oh, hey, sweetie. Yeah, I'm fine, just feel a bit tired and bloated." Joanna says as it was only now that Hilda and Stitch noticed that her stomach had increased in size exponentially.
"Yeah, we could tell. What's wrong?" Stitch asked as Joanna sweated nervously and laughed.
"Oh, nothing is wrong. Nothing at all."
"Hmmm, she's lying again...but what else is new?" Hilda asked herself bitterly as Roland then turned to smile at them warmly.
"Ah, there you are, kids. The Elves and I were just getting ready for our family picnic. Tontu should show up shortly."
"Ah, beautiful day for it," Alfur says with a soft smile as Astrid rolls her eyes dryly.
"Anyway, where are Jumba, Pleakley, Logan, Kaisa, and Marcus?" Astrid asked as Hilda and Stitch flinched as they shared nervous looks, completely forgetting about the fact that the whole family had planned to have a picnic at the wreckage of their old home back in the woods as the blue-haired girl tugged on her shirt a bit anxiously.
"Oh, uh, sorry, guys. Stitch and I would love to go, but we can't. Mum is clearly too sick to come with us to the picnic and we don't want her to feel left behind."
"Bah, nonsense, I will be fine. Don't worry." Joanna said reassuringly while waving her hand around as Stitch coughed a bit.
"Hilda mean we have a Sparrow Scout Activity to do today with the others."
"What activity?" Roland asked curiously as Hilda then stepped forward.
"Beach clean up."
"Hmmm, well, if it's an official activity, then you can go. We can reschedule our picnic for the weekend then." Joanna says as Hilda nods with a tense smile on her face.
"Thanks, Mum, and Alfur? Astrid? We will definitely take you up on your offer to help." Hilda says while walking over to pick up the Elves as she and Stitch then make their way out of the apartment.
"Wonderful-Wait, what offer?" A confused Alfur asked, but Hilda and Stitch ignored him as they closed the apartment door behind them and then ran over to the window placed at the end of the hall as Experiment 626 went over to open it while the blue-haired girl reached up to grab her earring as she proceeds to rip it out of her ear, causing it to magically transform into its true form as Hilda then mounted onto her magical broomstick and Stitch did the same as Alfur and Astrid could be seen holding onto Hilda's blue hair for safety. "Wait, hold on, what are we really doing?"
"We will explain on way," Stitch says reassuringly as Astrid beamed.
"Nice, if it's not us doing a stupid picnic, I will happily join."
"Ugh, guys, all of this lying is going to catch up with you," Alfur warned seriously as Hilda rolled her eyes and scoffed.
"Well, my Mum lied to me for 12 years, so if she can lie to me, then I can lie to her," Hilda says with an angry glare, surprising the Elves as Stitch gives her a sympathetic look.
"Stitch promise to explain on way too," Stitch says to Alfur and Astrid, who nod as Hilda then took them up into the air and they fly through the window as, after spending the next seven minutes flying through the air of Trollberg, we see the group returning back at the Trollberg Harbor and reunited with the rest of the Trollberg Justice Patrol as, after Alfur handed his seashell over to Hilda due to his tiny lungs being unable to blow it, the blue-haired girl reared back her head and blew on the seashell as a loud noise rang out, and after waiting around for a few seconds, Hilda and the others were amazed to see a big Water Spirit emerging before them.
"Eleven and a half to Cauldron Island," Alfur says as the Water Spirit nods and creates a set of water stairs for the group as the Trollberg Justice Patrol is quick to climb up it and appears on top of the Water Spirit as he then takes into the Trollberg Sea with everyone cheering happily, enjoying the ride as, eventually, they were able to arrive at Cauldron Island and the Water Spirit created a big water slide to have Hilda and the others slide down it as they laughed and cheered.
"Man, that was fun." A giggling Louise says as Hilda nods in agreement while holding onto Woodman's head as she then grows serious.
"Alright, gang, here's the plan. We are going to separate into two teams. Louise? David? Pleakley? Marcus? Alfur? Astrid? All of you are going to stay here on Cauldron Island and try to find the Lindworm to warn her about Erik and his fleet's attack so that she can fly away to safety."
"You can count on us, Hilda," Louise says while saluting her as she was planning to go and deal with the Lindworm anyway due to her duties as the Norway Dragon.
"Nice, I get to deal with a Dragon again." A smirking Marcus says as he places his hands on his hips.
"Wait, what?" A shocked Pleakley asked as David nodded in agreement.
"Yeah, why do we have to deal with a scary Fire Breathing Dragon...no offense," David says to his friend with a sheepish grin as Louise gives him a deadpanned look for the remark.
"Because Stitch, Jumba, Frida, Logan, Woodman, and I are going underwater to figure out what's really attacking the boats," Hilda says with a cocky grin as a blank-faced Frida raised her hand.
"Yeah, uh, one problem with that, Hilda. Only Stitch and Woodman can breathe underwater but one would be too heavy to move underwater and the other is just a head, and Master Tildy and Kaisa haven't taught us any underwater breathing spells...yet."
"Well, I can survive underwater with my shapeshifting," Logan added as Stitch hummed thoughtfully and looked around for a solution to their problem as he then realized that the Water Spirit was still standing there for an odd reason and pointed over at him.
"How about we use Water Spirit's Help?"
"Great idea, 626. Water Spirits are capable of shapeshifting and allowing people to reside inside of them safely and even create their own atmosphere and oxygen." Jumba says with a grin as a bewildered Pleakley turns to him.
"How do you know that?"
"Jumba has Witch Woman and Dragon Master teach Jumba about the magical world in Jumba's Spare Time," Jumba says with a shrug as Hilda then turned to the Water Spirit, who glanced down at her confusedly as the Woodman then whistled a bit to get everyone's attention.
"Don't worry, I speak Water Spirit," Woodman says reassuringly as Hilda nods and raises him up into the air as he begins speaking to the Water Spirit, who nods and morphs himself into a sphere as he makes a door and some stairs.
"Huh, wow, that works. Thanks, Woodman. Anyway, guys, it's time to suit up." Hilda says to the others, who nod as Hilda and Frida then snapped their fingers as dual flashes of blue/pink lights cover their bodies, and we see the girls transforming themselves into their Witch Forms as Frida then snaps her fingers again and a poof of pink smoke covered David's body as we see him wearing his Warrior's Outfit and reached behind him to pull out his Magic Shield as Stitch summoned his alien appendages, Marcus morphed into his Buff Male Form, and Jumba, Pleakley, Logan, Woodman, Alfur, and Astrid merely stood still and did nothing.
"Dragon...Up!" Louise exclaimed as cyan icy wind and crystals burst out of her body as she slowly transformed into her Dragon Form, and Hilda, Stitch, Jumba, Frida, Logan, and Woodman then made their way inside the Water Spirit, who retracted his stairs and closed up the door as it then went down into the Trollberg Sea and a smiling Aflur, who was riding around on David's hands alongside Astrid, turned to face the others.
"Alright, Young Squires, who knows what mighty challenges and grand adventures we shall face in order to find the Lindworm."
"You mean that Lindworm who is standing behind us," Astrid says blankly as everyone turns around and is surprised to see the Lindworm glaring down at them threateningly as it blows out puffs of blue flames, and roars loudly as she was planning to attack them, but was stopped by Louise flapping her wings as she took off into the air and held out her arms.
"Wait, wait, wait, we didn't come here to fight. We came here to help save you."
"Wait a minute, I know you. You are the Norway Dragon." Linda says while pointing over at Louise as the Lindworm then pointed over at Marcus, and the Elves. "And you are the Son of the Shapeshifter and you two are the Elves. I remember all of you. All of you are friends with that blue-haired girl and her weird four-armed alien creature thing who showed up at my home roughly one year ago."
"Yes, yes we are," Alfur says with a nervous laugh as Louise gives Linda a grim look.
"Look, Ma'am, I'm sorry to say that this isn't a social visit. You are in grave danger."
"Yeah, there is this man named Erik Ahlberg who thinks that you have spent the last three days attacking the ships at the Trollberg Harbor," Pleakley says as Linda looks shocked and offended by this.
"Seriously? Do those Humans really think that I have been wasting my precious time attacking those stupid ships back at the Trollberg Harbor for the last couple of days? That's impossible. I have spent the past three days perfectly trimming my bonsai." Linda says while pointing over at a perfectly trimmed bonsai as the group gasps in awe at the sight of it.
"Wow, how exquisite." An impressed David as Linda smiled and nodded.
"Yes, well, that doesn't change the fact that the Trollberg Safety Patrol and the Sailors of Trollberg are all coming here to Cauldron Island right now to try and attack you, so you need to fly out of Cauldron Island right now," Marcus says while morphing back into his normal form as Linda scoffed and rolled her eyes as she crossed her arms.
"Oh, please, unlike your Dragon Friend over here, I am a Lindworm and I live by a code, which is to NEVER back down from a battle! They'll regret picking on a Fire Breathing Dragon who suffers from social anxiety!" Linda yelled with a determined glare while flying off to prepare for battle as Louise sighed heavily and flew down to land next to the others.
"Great, what do we do now? If the Lindworm battles the Trollberg Safety Patrol, she will roast them in seconds." Louise pointed out as Pleakey whimpered nervously.
"I don't know. There must be something that we can do to stop the Lindworm from attacking the Trollberg Safety Patrol and simply fly away to safety." Pleakley says as Alfur looks around thoughtfully and spots some birds flying above them as he perks up.
"Hmmm, I think that I may have an idea," Alfur says while reaching behind him to pull out a pen and a piece of paper as he begins writing on it before whistling loudly, gaining one of the birds' attention as he flies down to land before them to reveal that an Elf was riding on it and Alfur threw the piece of paper down at him as the Elf then flew away with the help of his bird.
"So what is your plan exactly?" Astrid asked Alfur confusedly as said person merely grinned smugly and chucked as, back with the others, we see the Water Spirit swimming through the Trollberg Ocean while having Hilda and the others ride around inside of him safely, being able to breathe inside due to the Water Spirit generating its own atmosphere and oxygen as the Trollberg Justice Patrol looked around at the beauty of the underwater sea life in shock and awe.
"Okay, we REALLY need to have Master Tildy and Kaisa teach us how to cast underwater breathing spells soon because I want to be able to swim around here and explore the place for hours." An amazed Hilda says as Stitch gasped softly.
"This place is beautiful."
"Indeed it is," Logan says while looking around with a soft smile on his face as Frida turns her head and gasps as she points ahead.
"Guys, look," Frida says as she and the others spot one of the Trollberg Bells placed before them as Hilda growled angrily.
"The Bell," Hilda says with a glare and her eyes flash blue just as the automated hammer placed near the bell proceeds to slam itself against it, causing it to ring loudly as Stitch, Jumba, Frida, and Logan are forced to cover their ears with a pained wince as Hilda screamed loudly in pain and reached up to cover her bleeding ears, accidentally dropping a yelping Woodman as she felt her whole body tremble loudly in pain and stumble backwards as the blue-haired girl shoved herself out of the Water Spirit and was forced to cover up her mouth as she lost her footing and Hilda fell down into a cavern placed near the bell.
"HILDA!" Logan and the others screamed panickedly as Stitch, without thinking, instantly ran over to jump out of the Water Spirit and joined his ears together as he then began spinning it around rapidly, allowing him to fly through the Trollberg Ocean as Experiment 626 flew down into the cavern and began trying to fly after Hilda, who continued sinking down into the ocean and struggled to breathe as, usually due to living in the woods all of her life, she could easily hold her breath for an hour, but that didn't matter now due to the pain that was generated by the bell knocked her off her senses and began drowning to death as, suddenly, her eyes and body glowed a mystic blue as, unknown to her, her lungs were covered with a mystic blue energy glow and began to turn into a more organic stony alloy as Hilda suddenly lets out a loud gasp...and was no longer drowning to death as she looked stunned by this and glanced down at her hands, noticing that they were glowing blue as Stitch suddenly flew over to her and grabbed her as Hilda tried to tell him that she was okay, only for bubbles to come out of her mouth as she huffed before gaining an idea and perked up.
"I hope this works." Hilda thought to herself hopefully while reaching over to place her glowing blue hand on Stitch's chest as she concentrated and was able to set up a psychic link between them with her eyes turning pure black and gaining tear-shaped pupils as Stitch began flying them out of the cavern. "Don't worry, Stitch, I'm okay. Really." Hilda says to her Familiar through the art of telepathy reassuringly as he seems surprised by this but smiles as Experiment 626 then takes them out of the water and flies them over to the Water Spirit and the others as the blue-haired girl separates from him and lands on the ocean floor, surprising the others with how calm she looks as Hilda gestures at Stitch to go inside of the Water Spirit and he did so while unwrapping his ears as the 12-year-old girl then placed her hands on her temples and her eyes glowed a mystic blue as Stitch's eyes glowed a mystic blue as well and opened up his mouth as Hilda's voice rang out as if he was a living radio. "Guys, I'm fine. Don't worry."
"Fine? What do you mean fine? You need to get in here before you run out of oxygen." A worried Logan says as Hilda shakes her head and opens up her mouth as she begins swimming around easily.
"Nope, I'm fine. Trust me. This may sound crazy but when I was falling down through that cavern and close to drowning to death, that weird magical glow appeared and...I think it changed my lungs because now I can breathe underwater just fine."
"Really? Wow, I guess this must be another side effect of your magical genes kicking in." A surprised Marcus says as everyone nods, and Frida turns over to glare at the bell that nearly killed her best friend and sister figure.
"What is that thing doing down here?" An angry Frida asked as Marcus nodded in agreement.
"Yeah, I thought that we stopped all of Ahlberg's Machines?"
"If Jumba had to guess, he must've rigged it to keep Trolls out of the Harbor." Jumba guessed as Logan nodded and looked around with a glare.
"Yeah, and it looks like it is a pain for all of the creatures who live down here."
"And, judging by past experience, the bell is probably the reason why the Monster is attacking the boats, and why we need to destroy it. Stitch, if you would kindly destroy that bell, I would gladly appreciate it." Hilda says with a smug tone as her eyes stop glowing blue and turn back to normal as Stitch's eyes stop glowing blue, and closes up his mouth before grinning evilly as he cracks his knuckles.
"Meega nala kweesta! (I want to destroy!)," Stitch says with an evil laugh while leaping out of the Water Spirit and landing near the Old bell as he then reaches over to grab it and begins spinning around rapidly before tossing the bell out of the ocean as it shoots out of the water and begins flying through the air at high speeds as it landed near the outskirts of the city of Trollberg.
"Ah, that's much better." A relieved Hilda says after swimming over to go through the Water Spirit and landing on the ground as the Water Spirit then took them away, and we cue back to Cauldron Island as we see the Lost Clan arriving at said island on their boats and Bartel leaped out of the boat to land on the sandy ground as he looked around and perked up at the sight of his Grandaughter, Alfur, Louise, David, Pleakley, and Marcus standing in front of them.
"Grandfather!"
"Ah, Granddaughter! Good to see you again!" Bartel says while going over to hug Astrid before going over to hug a surprised Alfur. "And you as well, my Granddaughter's Mate!"
"M-Mate?! But I...we...um..."
"Grandfather, you might want to let go of him or else he will pop." A bemused Astrid says after noticing how red Alfur is as Bartel then lets go of him.
"Well, anyway, I want to thank our friend mightily for calling upon the Power of the Lost Clan. Now where is this battle of which you emailed me?"
"Ah, actually, Bartel, it's a fake battle." Louise pointed out with a small grin on her dragon face as Pleakley nodded in agreement.
"Yeah, do you see that Lindworm over there?" Pleakley asked while pointing up at the highest hill on Cauldron Island, and the gang spotted Linda, who was wearing white battle armor, practicing for the upcoming battle. "We told her that someone was coming to battle her, and so she won't leave until there IS a battle."
"So, we thought-,"
"Actually, it was Alfur's Idea, David." Marcus pointed out as said person pouted.
"But I took notes."
"Anyway, the idea is that you guys fake fight the Lindworm, lose, and then the Lindworm will leave with us before the Trollberg Safety Patrol shows up and tries to fight the Lindworm, but fail pathetically and would all die a painful, burning, and agonizing death," Louise stated bluntly as Alfur turned to Bartel.
"So will you help us?"
"Well, I have to admit, David's plan is pretty impressive."
"Well, uh, like Marcus said, the plan came from me," Alfur grumbled as Astrid patted his back to comfort him.
"But there is one small problem. The Lost Clan lives by a code, which is to never back down from combat!" Bartel cheered as he and the Lost Clan then ran forward to combat the Lindworm as an excited Astrid ran after him.
"...Man, David, this is your worst plan yet," Alfur says to David after climbing up to appear on his shoulder as he looks shocked by this, and we then cue over to the Trollberg Harbor as we see Erik Ahlberg inspecting all of the Trollberg Safety Patrol Boasts that were being loaded up to get ready for battle by the Trollberg Safety Patrol Members and the Sailors.
"Everything is prepared and ready to go, sir," Gerda says to Erik while walking up to him as said person grinned evilly.
"Excellent. I think it's time that we pay a visit to the Lindworm." Erik says ominously while staring over at Cauldron Island with a determined glare on his face as we then cue over to Hilda and the others as we see the Water Spirit taking them down to the oceanfloor, which was filled with a bunch of sunken and destroyed pirate ships as he then expands himself immensely to allow the Trollberg Justice Patrol to be able to walk around freely and the blue-haired girl walked over to a broken ship steering wheel as she reached over to rip out two pieces of wood and turned to Frida with a teasing look on her face.
"Hey, look, Frida, I found our new wands."
"Very funny," Frida says while rolling her eyes playfully as Hilda pocketed one of the sticks and handed the other one over to her best friend as a curious Jumba looks around.
"Jumba wants to know what is this place," Jumba says just as the seafloor trembled as he and the others spotted a Male Draugen phasing out of the ground before turning himself tangible as he resembled a humanoid transparent spectral blueish-green Pirate with glowing red pupilless eyes, a glowing skull, his hair/beard was made out of seaweed, has a hook in his right hand, and his bones were visible as he had a faint white glowing aura as he wore old raggedy wet Pirate Clothes. His name is James P. Skull, a Pirate Captain who was drowned to death after his ship and his crew were sunken down into the sea several hundred years ago.
"I will tell ye!" James yelled, startling the group as Hilda accidentally dropped Woodman's head, causing it to crash down onto the ground as the Draugen then bent down to use his hook hand to latch onto the Wood Folk's head and lift it up into the air. "Tis the remains of an intense and dangerous pirate ship battle. I am cursed by a Witch to clean it up for all eternity...unless one of ye would like to take on me curse instead?"
"Uh, no thank you."
"Naga."
"Jumba would have to heavily disagree."
"Not right now."
"Hell no."
"That's a hard pass from me." Hilda, Stitch, Jumba, Frida, Logan, and Woodman said in unison as James shrugged and raised his hand as he used his telekinesis to latch onto a nearby broom, and it flew over to land in his hands.
"Eh, it was worth a try," James says as he then began sweeping the floor.
"Uh, excuse me, Mr. Sunken Draugen Captain?"
"Me name is James P. Skull."
"Mr. Skull, then, while you were cleaning, did you happen to see what creature sunk the Woodman's Ship? Or any ship for that matter for the last three days or so?" Hilda asked as James hummed thoughtfully and rubbed his chin.
"Alas, I saw nary a thing...but there have been noises. Horrible noises that scare even the likes of me."
"Youga mean the Bell?" Stitch asked curiously as James shook his head.
"No, listen," James says as Hilda and the others look around, hoping to listen to something...but nothing happens as Jumba raises an eyebrow.
"Jumba doesn't hear anything."
"Hmmm, I guess it went away-," James says with a shrug before getting interrupted by a loud bestial roar as he and the others flinched in surprise and worry. "Ah! There it be!" James screamed panickedly while turning himself intangible as he turned around and flew over to phase down into the ground as the gang shared a suspicious yet cautious look and commanded the Water Spirit to shrink down in size as they began traveling forward and was eventually able to find what seems to be a sea creature feasting on the remains of the ship as it turned out to be a Baby Krakken, who is a 12-feet-tall 1-year-old octopus-like creature with a rock-like shell that covers the entire upper-half of her body as she has a large mouth and fifteen eyes all over her lower half as she also six tentacles.
"Whoa, how interesting. A Magical Undersea Creature." An amazed Jumba says while reaching into his pocket to write about the Baby Krakken as Frida raises an eyebrow curiously.
"What is it?"
"Don't know, but maybe we can find out. Let's try our magic on it." Hilda says to Frida, who flinched as she sweated nervously.
"Oh, uh, I don't know."
"Please, Frida, you are like one of the most smartest and talented people I know. If I can do it, so can you. Look." Hilda says while going over to stick her hand out of the Water Spirit and place it on the Baby Krakken's Shell. "It's safe," Hilda said as Frida bit her lip nervously but nodded as she went over to stick her hand out of the Water Spirit and placed it on the Baby Krakken's Shell as the girls then closed their eyes in concentration and their hands/eyes glowed with blue/pink energy as Hilda and Frida were able to set up a psychic link between all of them with their scleras turning yellow and gaining heart-shaped red pupils as they were able to read the Baby Krakken's mind just as she noticed the girls' presence as the Baby Krakken then took off at high speeds while dragging along Hilda and Frida as the girls screamed panickedly before letting go of her as the black-haired girl gagged and struggled to breathe as the blue-haired girl quickly swam over to give her best friend mouth to mouth, giving her some precious oxygen, long enough for the Water Spirit to swim over and catched both of them inside of its body as Logan held up his arms and grabbed the girls as he then placed them on the ground and Frida gasped sharply as she coughed loudly.
"Are you okay?" Jumba asked while tapping Frida on the back as she coughed a bit and nodded as her and Hilda's eyes and hands stopped glowing blue/pink and turned back to normal.
"Y-Yeah, I am, but, guys, I-I think I did it!"
"See? I knew that you can!" Hilda says while going over to hug Frida as a curious Stitch glances between them.
"Was that creature the reason why Woodman's Boat and all of those other boasts got sunken?"
"Impossible, it's not big enough," Woodman says as the girls nodded in agreement.
"He's right, but Hilda and I think that we do know who might be responsible for all of the boats getting sunken into the ocean."
"We need to go back to Cauldron Island immediately," Hilda says with a serious glare as we cue back to Cauldron Island, and we see Linda the Lindform flying through the air as she opens up her mouth and roars out a big stream of blue flames down at the Lost Clan, who were able to avoid the attack as Astrid and the others fired their arrows and rocks up at Linda with said person easily flying away to avoid the attack as Louise, David, Pleakley, Marcus, and Alfur watching this on in the background worriedly.
"Stop fighting! This is getting us nowhere!" Pleakley screamed worriedly as Louise nodded in agreement.
"Yeah, we need to get you out of here before Ahlberg arrives!"
"Uh, too late for that," Alfur says with a nervous gulp as he and the others point ahead as the Trollberg Justice Patrol are stunned to see the Trollberg Safety Patrol arriving at Cauldron Island on their boats as well as a few brave Trollberg Sailors.
"Lindworm sighted-Holy moly! There are two Dragons on Cauldron Island!" A shocked Erik exclaimed after seeing the Lindworm seemingly flying around and firing multiple streams of blue flames at nothing as Louise was standing near her in her Dragon Form, and the others were momentarily hidden by a conveniently placed large rock. "Fire the harpoons, Deputy Gerda!"
"Righty-Oh!" Gerda says while turning around to signal the Trollberg Safety Patrol and the Trollberg Sailors to fire all of their harpoons at Cauldron Island as they all completely missed both Dragons.
"Oh, crap! They are shooting at us!" A panicking Pleakley yelled as Marcus nodded in agreement.
"Yeah, good thing bad guys are such terrible shots!"
"Man, those Dragons are elusive!" A Trollberg Safety Patrol Member says while aiming his harpoon upwards as he continued stupidly firing more and more harpoons up at the sky.
"Okay, that's it! I'm ending this now!" Louise yelled while taking flight as she flew over to collide against Linda the Lindworm, tackling her down into the ground as she growled down at her angrily. "Would you please stop fighting and listen to us?!"
"How DARE you?! As I told you before, a Lindworm lives by a-,"
"WHO CARES ABOUT A STUPID CODE WHEN YOUR LIFE IS IN DANGER?! THEY MAY BE LOUSY SHOTS, BUT WE NEED TO LEAVE BEFORE THEY GET A FEW LUCKY HITS IN! I'M THE NORWAY DRAGON! MY MISSION IS TO PROTECT ALL OF YOU! HOW CAN I DO THAT WHEN YOU STUPIDLY THROW YOUR LIFE AWAY LIKE THAT?!" Louise asked furiously with tears in her eyes as Linda looked stunned by this.
"Yeah, you tell her, Louise!" Pleakley yelled while making his way out of cover to applaud her as a worried David and Marcus ran over to grab him by his arms.
"Pleakley! Get back to cover before they accidentally shoot you!"
"Oh, no! Those Evil Dragons have taken a rather beautiful and sexy lady...oh, and I guess those innocent children hostage as well! I'll put a stop to this beast myself!" Erik says with a determined glare while turning around to walk over to the harpoon as a worried Gerda turns to him.
"Wait, boss, I don't think that it's a good idea to shoot a harpoon when there are civilians around! You could accidentally shoot them instead of the Dragons!" Gerda warned concernedly with Erik bluntly ignoring her as he simply aimed his weapon at Cauldron Island and shot a harpoon that flew through the air as a gasping Pleakley quickly tackled David and Marcus down into the ground just as the harpoon sailed past them as it headed towards the Dragons and Linda spotted this as she gasped in shock and horror.
"Norway Dragon! Look out!" Lind screamed while reaching up to grab onto a surprised and oblivious Louise as she pushed her away just as the harpoon sailed past them as it stabbed itself into the ground, and everyone grew silent as they stared at the harpoon in stunned shock with Louise and the others realizing how close they were to die right there as, before anyone could react, all of Cauldron Island began shaking violently and began slowly rising upwards as a worried Louise turned to the others.
"Can we leave now?!" Louise asked as everyone nodded and David and Marcus frantically ran over to leap onto her back while Pleakley, who had Alfur riding around on his wig, ran over to bend down and was able to grab onto all of the Lost Clan and urgently ran over to leap onto Linda's back as the Dragons then took them up into the air to safety just as the Water Spirit had resurfaced from the Trollberg Ocean as Hilda and the others laid on top of him as they were left stunned by the sight of the rising island.
"Oh, no! We are too late!" A concerned Hilda yelled just as Cauldron Island raised herself completely from the Trollberg Ocean, revealing to be a 200-feet-tall, 500-year-old Female Krakken as she resembled a huge octopus-like creature with a rock-like shell that covered the entire upper-half of her body as she has a large mouth and thirty eyes all over her lower half as she also six tentacles. Her name is the Krakken, a gigantic octopus-like creature that lives in oceans and other deep waters like fjords.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Everyone screamed in shock and fear as the Krakken then raised six tentacles and reached over to snatch multiple boats as she then dunked them underwater with people still inside as a stunned Jumba gripped his head.
"What's happening?!"
"Cauldron Island isn't an island at all! It's a-,"
"Krakken. According to legend, Krakken usually takes long periods of slumber for 250 years, and since it has been 75 years since the last time the Krakken was awake, she should have been asleep for another 175 years." Woodman says, interrupting Frida as everyone turns to glare down at him angrily. "What? I thought everyone knew that."
"It must've been Ahlberg's Bell that woke her up prematurely," Logan says with a glare just as the Krakken reaches over to grab six other boats with her tentacles as she raises them up high into the air and the people inside scream in fear and horror as they struggle to hold on.
"We need to save those people!" A determined Hilda says as a worried Frida turns to her.
"But, Hilda, there are too many people around! We would expose ourselves to everyone here! Including Erik!"
"Who cares?! Innocent people are in danger! We will deal with the consequences later!" A glaring Hilda says as everyone nods grimly, and the girls then reach up to grab their necklaces and earrings as Hilda and Frida proceed to rip them out of their ears and necks, causing them to magically transform into their true forms as Stitch grunts and a dark purple demonic cloud covered his body as he transforms into his Demon Form and the trio took off into the air as Stitch then thought of something and glanced down at Woodman, who Jumba was now holding as they and Logan stayed on top of the Water Spirit.
"Woodman! Rege het Water Spirit ot muka nad suva het piki whoka rea cooka drugula nad toka hem waka ot shora (Woodman! Order the Water Spirit to multiply and save the people who are currently drowning and take them back to shore!),"
"On it!" Woodman yelled while glancing down at the Water Spirit as he began talking to him and transferred Stitch's message over to him as the Water Spirit nodded and duplicated himself up to ten as the rest of the Water Spirits dived down into the water to save the drowning Trollberg Safety Patrol Members and Trollberg Sailors and then brings them back to shore as Logan stood up and walked forward as Jumba turned to him curiously.
"What are you doing to do, Shapeshifting Man?"
"Something cool," Logan says with a smug grin while jumping off from the Water Spirit as he landed on the ground, and at first, nothing happens, until the Shapeshifting Warlock can be seen using his powers to morph himself into a 200-feet-tall Male Tiamat as he resembles a huge titanic serpentine creature with a dark green in coloration with numerous purple serrated fins that run through the length of his entire body, and additionally, he possesses four clawed crocodilian limbs, a draconic skull that is surrounded by yellow frills that open and fold depending on his mood, and a bright bioluminescent magenta color now lights the tips of his fins.
"Edgebonoutoosis!" Hilda chanted while raising her glowing blue hands as her whole body glowed a mystic blue and said energy separated from her body as it floated beside her, and Hilda was able to create five perfect replicas of herself as she commanded four of her clones to fly over and grab the civilians trapped inside two boats while she and her final clone flew over to grab the civilians trapped inside a third boat.
"Vortress Nebulae!" Frida chanted while raising her glowing pink hands as she fired dual pink magical beams of energy that flew over to collide against two boats, creating two big energy crystal bubble shields around them as the black-haired girl then used her telekinesis to yank them out of the Krakken's grip and gently set them back down on the Trollberg Ocean, far away from the Krakken.
"Stitch got you!" Stitch yelled while flying over to the final boat as he reached up to grab it with his four arms and yanked the boat out of the Krakken's grip as Experiment 626 then flew it away to safety, and Logan manipulated the water around him to grow out a big water spout that flew over to collide against the Krakken, blinding and injuring her as she then recovered from the attack and roared at all of them angrily before crushing the three boats that she had in her grip into a billion pieces and dropped them down into the ocean just as several Baby Krakkens appeared as they all went over to begin eating the boats.
"Oh, wait, look, the Krakken is not attacking the Trollberg Safety Patrol Fleet." A surprised Hilda says while she and her clones flew down to the ocean and allowed a clone of the Water Spirit to rise out of the ocean as he reached over to grab them and then took them to safety as Hilda's Clones all then disappeared with multiple flashes of blue light.
"Yeah, she's trying to feed her babies," Logan says while swimming over to Hilda as Frida and Stitch float over to hover around Hilda.
"They're going to eat Ahlberg's Entire Fleet." A worried Frida says as Experiment 626 shakes his head and points ahead.
"Naga, look," Stitch says as the trio glances ahead and spots the Baby Krakkens spitting out the remains of the boat in disgust due to two of them being made out of metal as they roared in protest.
"Heh, wow, those kids are picky eaters," Woodman commented just as the Original Water Spirit swam them over to appear beside the group as we cued back to the Main Trollberg Safety Patrol Boat, and Erik was staring at the scene in complete shock as Gerda was trying to calm down the rest of their crew before they panic so much that they try to do something stupid and shoot harpoons into the air while there were still civilians around.
"Unbelievable! Look at that, Gerda! Those are Hilda, Stitch, and their friends out there! Flying around like Witches and Demons! Aha! I knew that there was something weird about them! I just knew it!"
"Yes, yes, that's all good, sir, but I think that it's better for us to focus on getting the hell out of there before the Krakken tries to eat us!" A stern Gerda says as Erik hummed thoughtfully and gained a sinister idea as he glanced over at their harpoons.
"Or maybe I can kill two birds with one stone!" Erik yelled while rushing over to man the harpoons as the Krakken reached over to grab a boat with one of her tentacles and brought it over to her and her babies as Jumba spotted this and gasped in realization as he glanced down at the Woodman.
"Woodman, you are made of wood, and your boat was made of wood as well, right?"
"Yeah, so?"
"So, the Baby Krakkens only eat wood. Most likely because their jaws aren't as strong as an Adult Krakken's jaws. They can't eat through metal." Jumba says as a confused Stitch turns to him.
"Yeah, and how does that help us?"
"Well, remember when we were floating around underwater and stumbled upon a huge pile of sunken wooden pirate ships down below the ocean near us? If we can somehow convince the Krakken and her Babies to go down there and eat instead-,"
"Then we would be able to have it stop attacking the Trollberg Safety Patrol and save everyone! Brilliant idea, Jumba!" A beaming Hilda complimented as she then glanced up at the Krakken. "Hey! Krakken! There's an all-you-can-eat buffet of wooden pirate ships this way! Post-sunk!" Hilda screamed as the Krakken ignored her, confusing her and the others as Frida then gasped in realization.
"I don't think that she can hear us!" Frida pointed out as Logan nodded in agreement.
"We need to get closer to her!" Logan suggested as they nodded and Stitch and the girls then flew upwards while Logan swam ahead as Jumba and the others stood by as the group was planning to fly/swim up to the Krakken, only for them to reflexively dodge out of the way as a harpoon nearly hit them and turned their heads to see a smirking Erik aiming his weapon up at them.
"Sir, what are you doing?!" An incredulous Gerda asked, wondering why her boss was shooting at the people who were helping them as Erik ignored her and turned to the other remaining boats near them.
"Everyone! Shoot at the freaks flying in the air! Shoot them out of the sky!" Erik ordered with a sharp glare as the Trollberg Safety Patrol Members and the Trollberg Sailors gave each other odd looks before shrugging as they aimed their weapons up at Hilda, Frida, and Stitch and began shooting their harpoons up at them as they began struggling to try and avoid them by dodging around as Logan was able to help them out by manipulating the water to shoot out multiple waterspouts to knock off the harpoons of course.
"Hilda! 626! Frida! No!" A worried Jumba says while standing up as the waves of the battle splashed against him, washing away his glasses, hat, and fake black mustache as Erik spots this and gasps in shock just as the Water Spirit takes Jumba and Woodman down into the water to try and protect them as his clones appeared, having finished evacuating all of the people who were drowning in the ocean as they all fused back into his body.
"What's going on?!" A shocked Alfur asked while still riding around on a floating Linda's Back with Astrid and the Lost Clan as David and Marcus rode around on a hovering Louise's back.
"I think that Hilda and the others are trying to fly over to the Krakken to try and either talk to her or attack her, but they can't get close to her because they are too busy trying to avoid all of the harpoon attacks from Erik and the others!" Pleakley yelled anxiously as a determined Astrid clenched her fist.
"We need to help them get close to the Krakken!"
"But how?!" Marcus asked as Louise hummed thoughtfully and came up with an idea as she then turned to Linda and the Lost Clan.
"Linda! Lost Clan! All of you said that you would never back down from a battle and yet there's a battle right there that needs winning!" Louise yelled while pointing over at the battlefield as Linda and the Lost Clan shared nervous looks. "So are you with us?!"
"Uh...no/Absolutely not." Linda and Bartell stated bluntly as the gang looked shocked by this.
"What? Why not? Your code says-,"
"Ah, but there is a higher code, which is not getting into fights that I can't win, and that includes fighting against the Krakken," Linda says with a shrug as David rolls his eyes and scoffs.
"You guys don't HAVE to fight the Krakken. Our other friends can handle that thing. We just want you guys to help us by taking out the harpoons on the Trollberg Safety Patrol Boats."
"Oooooh, well, then, why didn't you say so?" A smiling Linda says as Bartel nodded in agreement.
"We are in," Bartel says as Louise and the others sigh in relief before taking off high into the air as they then dived down towards the Trollberg Safety Patrol Boats and Louise and Linda reared back their heads as they then roared dual big streams of cyan icy wind and blue flames that collided against the harpoon weapons on the Trollberg Safety Patrol Boats, either freezing them in big blocks of ice or melting them into silver goo as Pleakley reached behind him and pulled out his Plasma Blaster and fired multiple bolts of green plasma energy that collided against the harpoon weapons on various boats, blowing them up into a billion pieces and his blonde hair wig blew off by the intense winds placed around him as Marcus bends down and morphed into a big buff dude to reach over and grab a harpoon weapon and tossed it over to collide against another harpoon weapon placed on another boat as David reached behind him to grab his Magic Shield and tossed it over to slash through various harpoon weapons, including Erik's weapon, destroying and damaging them as it flew over to land back in its master's hand as Erik spotted this and couldn't help but gasped in shock.
"Unbelievable. They are freaks too? Including that sexy vixen? I was hitting on some type of ugly male alien this whole time?!" A surprised and horrified Erik yelled while going green-faced as he proceeded to vomit all over the floor just as Jumba and Woodman resurfaced near them as they thanked the Water Spirit for saving them.
"Thanks, guys!" A relieved Hilda yelled down at Louise and the others before she, Frida, and Stitch flew over to appear near the Krakken's ears while Logan emerged out of the ocean to appear beside the Krakken.
"Hey! Listen to us! There's better food over there!" Logan yelled into the Krakken's ear as said person continued ignoring them.
"Stitch thinks that she can't understand us," Stitch says as Hilda curses.
"Damn it! We must find a way to have the Krakken understand what we are saying!"
"Ooh, wait, what if we use our magic on it?! If we can get close enough to her, we can tell the Krakken about all of the sunken pirate ships and then she will leave! Our magic worked on one of her babies, so maybe it will work on her?!" Frida suggested as Hilda, Stitch, and Logan nodded just as the Krakken slammed its tentacles down at them, knocking them over to collide against a surprised Jumba and Woodman while also scaring away the Water Spirit as they all began sinking down into the ocean before Stitch reached quickly as he swam over to grab Hilda, Frida, Jumba, and the Woodman as he swam them up to the surface just as a grunting and bruised Logan was tossed near them as he crashed down into the ocean, creating a big wave that collided against the group and sends them flying through the air as the Kraken then stretched her tentacles over to them and used one of her tentacles to latch onto Hilda and Frida while using her other tentacle to grab Stitch, Jumba, and Woodman as she raised them up high into the air.
"Frida! Don't panic! Calm down and focus!"
"That's easy for you to say! Unlike you, my bones and internal organs are not stronger than titanium or carbon steel!" A grunting Frida screamed while yelping in pain as she felt the Krakken's tentacle crushing her lightly, and Hilda then glanced over at Stitch and the others, who struggled to escape from the Krakken's grip as the blue-haired girl frowned worriedly before gasping softly as time seemed to slow down around her and her eyes and whole body glowed a mystic blue as we then zoom into her mind.
~[Hilda's Mindscape]~
"Oh, this place again," Hilda says while standing up from the invisible floor and looking around as she realizes that she is once again stuck inside of the familiar giant black void filled with dark gray storm clouds and blue lightning and glances over to see that the giant blue magical cage is massively dented and looked like it could fall apart at any moment as the Mysterious Troll panted heavily as she collided against the bars powerfully as they started to give more and more as she looked to Hilda with a somber glance.
"You want to save your friends? You really want to know the truth about Father? About who you are? Then let me out of here!"
"O-Okay, but I'm scared of what to find out," Hilda says while nervously rubbing her arm as the Mysterious Troll gives her a reassuring, soft smile.
"Don't be scared, Hilda. I'm part of you. You need to know the truth to grow. Just release me." The Mysterious Troll pleaded as Hilda bit her lip nervously but then took a deep breath as Hilda nodded and went over to the glowing blue magical cage as she noticed that there was a glowing blue magical key placed near it as she reached over to grab it and took a deep breath before the blue-haired girl proceeds to jam her key into the keyhole placed on the cage and turned it, unlocking said cage as the doors were kicked open and a big flash of white light occurred as the cage was fully destroyed.
Tearing up, the Mysterious Troll began smiling from ear to ear with utter glee and pure joy, happy to finally have her freedom after being trapped in Hilda's Mind for five years as she ran over to grab her Human Half into a hug and then spun her around in a circle with an elated laugh as, while she was surprised this, Hilda couldn't help but grin back and laugh as the girls began laughing and twirling around as their bodies then glowed a bright mystic blue glow and the Human and Troll Versions of Hilda continued laughing while slowly being fused into one willingly and we see a big bright mystic blue Hilda-shaped energy hybrid creature standing before us as Hilda then stopped laughing and gasped sharply as all of her magically repressed memories began appearing in her mind.
~[Flashback #1]~
"Oh, Martin, look at her." A tearful 19-year-old Joanna says while glancing down at her new bundle of joy, who was really a crying and squirming 5-minute-old Hilda as she laid on a white blanket that covered up her nudity and had long blue hair as we see them and Martin hanging out inside of Tildy's House after the Arch-Sorceress was able to help deliver their baby for them as she was currently out of the room to wash her hands. "She's so beautiful. Our little miracle child." Joanna cooed while kissing Hilda's forehead, calming her down as she stopped crying and yawned as Hilda rested against her mother's bosom.
A 19-year-old Joanna looks drastically different from the Joanna we know as she has shoulder-length light auburn hair that is covered with sweat and stuck to her head, a more slender build, and she is currently wearing a long-sleeved blue gown that reaches down to her legs and her golden wedding ring.
"That she is. I knew that our little fighter would survive." A 20-year-old Martin says with a soft smile while looking exactly the same as his 23-year-old self, including the fact that he still wore his golden wedding ring. "Just like how I knew that her Mum would be able to power through and survive the birth. I knew that you would do it. There is no other woman that I know who is strong and brave enough to do this." Martin says while leaning over to kiss Joanna as said person did the same with a blushing smile on her face.
"Thanks for the compliments, Hubby~," Joanna says as she then held out a now quiet and content Hilda. "Want to hold her?"
"Of course," Martin says with an excited tone while reaching over to try and hold his Daughter, only to be stopped by Joanna as she shakes her head.
"No, Martin, I want you to hold her as your true self."
"Really? But what if I hurt her?" A concerned Martin asked as Joanna giggled and leaned over to kiss him.
"I know that you won't hurt her. Not even if your life depends on it. You always hold me with care and I know that you would do the same with your Daughter. Just try, please." Joanna pleaded as Martin bit his lip but sighed heavily as he then took a couple of steps back and held out his glowing cyan hands.
"Muta me in formam meam Troglodytarum!" Martin chanted as a flash of cyan light occurred, and we see him transforming back into his real form.
Standing before them is Martin in his True Form, which consists of him being an 8-foot-tall, 20-year-old Male Troll as he resembles a huge muscular creature with a dark grey-colored stone-like body with a pair of glowing white eyes, short spiky grass-like hair with multiple flowers on it and a pair of dark grey stone-like yet organic antlers planted on top of his head, no eyebrows, two holes that acted as ears, a large nose, a large mouth filled with several sharp white teeth and a pink tongue, a sharp chin, a pair of large stumpy four-fingered arms, no visible genitalia, a pair of large stumpy four-toed legs, and his outfit consists of an unbuttoned red/black collared-jacket with a black shirt underneath, black jeans, and black/red boots.
"Here," Joanna says while casually hanging Hilda over to Martin, having full confidence and faith that her husband won't hurt their child as Martin glances down at his blue-haired baby girl, who opens her eyes and seems to stare up at him in shock and awe as, while he couldn't talk, he tried to smile at her to comfort her and Hilda seems to beam before a puff of blue smoke covered her body, shocking and alarming both parents as they were planning to ask for Tildy's help, only to see Hilda transforming into her Troll Form and began babbling up at Martin, who perked up and was able to understand her as he began talking with his baby daughter. "Huh, I guess that Hilda takes more after her Father than we thought." A bemused Joanna says as she chuckles. "I just hope that she takes after me too."
~[Flashback #2]~
"Welcome to our new home, Hilda." A 19-year-old Joanna says to a week-old Hilda while they and a 20-year-old Martin, who was magically disguised in his Human Form, could be seen standing in front of a two-story house placed somewhere in Trollberg.
"You are going to love it here, Hilda. I know I did." Martin says with a sincere smile while kissing Joanna as they and a curious and sleepy Hilda then make their way into the house.
~[Flashback #3]~
A panting and worried 22-year-old Martin can be seen running through the city late at night while in his Troll Form and holding a 2-year-old Hilda, who is also in her Troll Form as they are having a cute little Father and Daughter Date when the blue-haired girl suddenly transformed into her Troll Form and ran around to play in the restaurant that they were eating inside of, forcing Martin to transform into his Troll Form and grabbed his daughter to then leave as the Trollberg Safety Patrol appeared and began chasing after her as he was able to hide them both inside of an alleyway and once the Trollberg Safety Patrol ran past them, Martin sighed in relief and glanced down a giggling and oblivious Hilda.
"Transfigurare me in meam formam humanam." Martin chanted with his hands glowing cyan as a flash of cyan light occurred, and we see him transforming back into his Human Form.
"Sweetie, please be a good girl and change back into your Human Form. Like now." Martin ordered worriedly as Hilda cooed but sensing her father's distress, she nodded and morphed back into her Human Form with a puff of blue smoke just as a random car appeared as Martin grew worried and held onto Hilda tightly, planning to run away, only to sigh in relief as he spotted a 21-year-old Joanna emerging out of her car and ran over to hug them in joy and glee as she then separated from them and gave her Husband a serious look as he sighed heavily and we cue to a year later as we see a 22-year-old Joanna, a 23-year-old Martin, and a curious 3-year-old Hilda standing in front of the Cabin House placed in the Trollberg Woods that was originally built by Hilda's Great-Granddad as the married couple had come to an agreement that living in Trollberg is too dangerous for them right now when Hilda doesn't have proper control over her powers and decided to only bring her back to living in Trollberg when she has full control over her powers and how to protect and defend herself as the small family then made their way inside of the Cabin House.
~[Flashback #4]~
We then see a small montage of the small family enjoying their life and having fun for the next four years as we see 23-year-old Joanna and a 24-year-old Martin taking a 4-year-old Hilda out on a hike and teaching her about how to survive in the woods, a 25-year-old Martin teaching a 5-year-old Hilda about the Magical World and even give her a book about Trolls, a 26-year-old Martin traveling through the forest at night time in his Troll Form with a giggling 6-year-old Hilda running and leaping after him in her own Troll Form as a 25-year-old Joanna hovered above them, and the small family let out a loud and joyful laugh as we even see the first time that Hilda and her family meets Woodman with Martin preventing Joanna from beating him up due to him breaking into their house as we then cut to the next morning and we see Martin, Hilda, and Woodman walking through the woods, near the river.
"So, I can't help but notice that you don't have a neck. How exactly does your head stay on?" Hilda asked curiously while glancing down at Woodman as he was shorter than her.
"Concentration. Focus. As long as I'm thinking about it, at least to some extent, it tends to stay put. Of course, it's-,"
"What happens if I tickle you?" A grinning and mischievous Hilda says while going over to tickle Woodman, who yelped in surprise and began laughing as he lost concentration on his head, and it landed on the ground as it rolled over to fall off the cliff, and landed down on the river placed near them. "Oh, no! Woodman, I will save you!" Hilda screamed while impulsively transforming into her Troll Form with a poof of blue smoke as she then leaped into the river, and while she was able to grab the Woodman's head, they both began sinking down to the water due to Hilda's heavy stone-like organic body.
"Damn it, Hilda! How many times have I told you about this?! You can't swim in your Troll Form!" Martin scolded concernedly and angrily while leaping after them as he splashed down into the river, and we fast forward in time as we see them resurfacing out of the water, and a sheepish and ashamed Hilda handed Woodman back his head after Martin told her to apologize to the Woodman for what happened.
~[Flashback #5]~
"Why can't we explore that mountain over there, Daddy?" A 7-year-old Hilda asked while pointing over at Troll Mountain as she and a 27-year-old Martin were walking through the forest late at night as, while the blue-haired girl could talk in perfect English even in her Troll Form, she liked talking with her Father in the language of the Troll.
A 7-year-old Hilda was now 3'7-feet-tall with long natural blue hair that was tied up into dual low-hanging pigtails, a slim build, and her outfit consisted of a black beret, a red scarf wrapped around her neck, a baggy long-sleeved oversized brown sweater with a red straight line and yellow zigzag pattern, long black tights, and a pair of grey rain boots.
"Because it's too dangerous, Hilda," Martin says with a stern tone as he still looks the same, both in his Troll and Human Form.
"But why?"
"Your Mother and I will explain to you why you can't go there when you are 10 years old." Martin explained as he and Joanna agreed to tell Hilda the truth about their past when she was old enough to understand and old enough to properly control her powers and move back into the city.
"But, Daddy-,"
"No, buts, Hilda What's Your Name. Now, come on, I'm cutting training early for today. Your Mother is making dinner tonight." Martin says while turning around to walk away as Hilda frowns and glances back over at Troll Mountain as a determined look on her face and decides to make a decision that she will forever regret for the rest of her life.
~[Flashback #6]~
"Ooh, cool." An amazed 7-year-old Hilda says while being able to sneak out of her Cabin Home after her Mummy and Daddy went to sleep and made those weird loud sounds that she sometimes hears, but whenever the blue-haired girl asked what they were doing in their room, they always blush heavily and changed the subject as, after getting rid of that random thought in her head, Hilda sneaked out of her house and traveled through the forest as she was able to arrive at Troll Mountain and began inspecting the outside of the mountain in awe before stopping as she spotted a bunch of Trolls hanging around before spotting her as they all turned to glare at her venomously. "...Uh...hello, I'm Hilda. I'm Half-Human and a Quarter Fairy on my Mum's Side and I'm a Troll like you guys from my Father's side. What are your names?"
~[Flashback #7]~
"Daddy! I'm sorry!" A crying Hilda apologized as we fast forward in time, and we see a panting and heavily injured Martin rushing through the forest in his Troll Form while holding Hilda, who was also in her Troll Form as, the minute she revealed her true self to the Trolls, they had captured her and brought her into Troll Mountain as one of the Trolls, a Two-Headed Troll, decided that she deserves to be executed for being an abomination to nature and was planning to kill her by literally beating her to death, only for a roaring Martin to appear, beat up a lot of Trolls, and grabbed his Daughter as he tried to take her to safety, but Two Headed Troll and the other Trolls began chasing after them.
"Hilda! We will talk about this later!"
"I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry!" Hilda begged while sobbing in his arms as Martin rubbed her back to comfort her and looked around for a place to hide as he spotted a nearby cave and ran over to place Hilda inside of it as the Troll then went over to pick up some large rocks. "D-Daddy, what are you-,"
"Shhhhhhh," Martin shushed her gently while arranging the rocks to form around Hilda to hide her from plain sight as he then took the time to admire his Daughter and felt tears in his eyes as he smiled warmly.
"D-Daddy?" Hilda asked as Martin reached over to grab her hands and leaned forward to kiss her forehead.
"I love you, Hilda. I love you and your mother so much. I know that you will grow up to be an amazing person, Hilda. You have such a kind heart and a heroic spirit. I know that no matter what you do, you will make me proud. You are destined for greatness, little blue."
"D-Daddy, why are you t-talking like this?" Hilda asked nervously as Martin then kissed her on the cheek.
"Look, just stay here and hide for an hour or so before coming out. Your Mother is around here, so she will come soon. When she does, you two just run back to the Cabin House no matter what." Martin instructed with a serious tone as Hilda nodded.
"But what about you, Daddy?"
"I'm going to do something that I should've done a long time ago. Protect my family." Martin says with a serious tone while reaching over to grab a rock that is the same size as Hilda and turns around to walk away, but stops as he turns to smile at her warmly. "I love you girls so much. Tell your Mother that I'm sorry and that I love her." Martin says before turning around to run away as a worried and confused Hilda is planning to follow after him but stops as the Two-Headed Troll and the other Trolls appear as she fearfully hides back in the cave and waits until they run past the cave before letting out the breath that she was holding in as the Magical Hybrid panted tearfully and closed her eyes as she placed her hands on her head and struggled to block out the sounds from outside, even when she heard a loud painful scream and multiple loud cracks ranging out.
~[Flashback #8]~
"Hilda!" A 26-year-old Joanna yelled while appearing by the cave an hour later as Hilda opened her eyes and turned her head as she spotted her Mother and perked up as the Magical Hybrid transformed back into her Human Form with a puff of blue smoke and ran over to hug her.
"Mummy! Daddy is in danger! We have to help him!" Hilda yelled urgently with tears in her eyes as Joanna teared up and hugged her back.
"Oh, Hilda, I'm so sorry, but your Dad-,"
"Is in danger! We don't have time to walk! We have to go now!" Hilda yelled impatiently while separating from her mother as she turned around to run away and ignored Joanna's protests for her to come back as she began using her knowledge of survival to track her Father down by his footprints and was able to arrive at a meadow from where the tracks stop as the place was littered with large and small pieces of rock.
"Daddy! Mummy is here, and those mean Trolls are gone! We can go back home now!" Hilda screamed but received nothing but silence as she was confused by this, knowing that her Father had to be near as the blue-haired girl began exploring the place, but stopped upon spotting a large rock placed near her, and her blood turned cold upon realizing that it contained her father's shirt as Hilda began looking around frantically, seeing more and more of her Father's clothing scattered around the area and only now did she realized that the pieces of rock were the same color as her Father's stoney body in his Troll Form and began panting heavily with her pupils shrinking in shock and horror as Hilda stumbled backwards and collided against what seems to be the broken head of her father as her face pale in sorrow and surprise and dropped down onto her knees as tears appeared on her eyes and trembled as the blue-haired girl then threw back her head and lets out a loud, guilty, mournful wail.
"DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAADDY!"
~[Flashback #9]~
After fast forwarding in time to a week, we see Joanna and Hilda having a funeral for Martin with Woodman and several of Martin's Magical Friends standing near them as the light auburn-haired woman is able to pick up all of Martin's discarded rocky parts and placed them all in a casket as she and her daughter stood in front of the casket that had a picture of Martin in his Troll Form and in his Human Form as Joanna covered her face and sobbed while Hilda stared down at her father's dead body with an emotionless, stunned look on her face.
For the next year, we see a quiet and catatonic Hilda never leaving the Cabin Home and barely reacting to anything as if she had lost all will to live as a 27-year-old Joanna tries everything to cheer up her clearly mourning and traumatized Daughter, but nothing works until one day she met her future pet Twig and bonded with him after he saved her life, and for the first in the whole year, an 8-year-old Hilda puts on a genuine smile and laughed joyfully, finding the will to live again as she had also regained her adventurous spirit.
~[Flashback #10]~
"Here you go, sweetie," Joanna says with a warm smile on her face while making her daughter her first ever sea cucumber sandwich that had magical repressing pills placed inside as an oblivious Hilda ate it while rubbing Twig's head as she then went to sleep in her bed, and unknown to her, the blue-haired girl's magical Troll Side got locked away semi-permanently and all of her memories relating to anything magical got temporarily erased as well as she then spend the next four years blissfully thinking that she was a normal Human Girl and her Dad simply died out of a violent animal attack in the woods.
~[Flashback Over]~
"I-I remember...I remember...I REMEMBER EVERYTHING!" Hilda exclaimed with her body glowing a bright mystic blue magical glow as it washed over the whole area and shattered the mysterious void apart as we then zoomed out of her head.
~[Real World]~
"Hilda? Hilda, what's wrong?" Frida asked worriedly as Hilda's eyes and body glowed a mystic blue as her best friend remained silent for like a few seconds before she stopped glowing and took a deep breath, and suddenly, a huge explosion of blue smoke emerged out of her body that let out a big shockwave as the blue smoke traveled not only across the Trollberg Sea but also all of the city as well as we cue back to the Hilda and Stitch Apartment as we see Joanna caressing her stomach on the couch with a small loving smile on her face before yelping in surprise as the apartment shook violently and turned her head to see a big blue cloud flying over to impact against the apartment, shaking it even more as her eyes widened knowingly and in worry as she bit her lip.
"Oh, it finally happened," Joanna says while reaching into her pocket to pull out her phone as she speed-dialed her boyfriend, and he answered the call. "Roland? We have a problem."
"What? What's wrong, babe?" Roland asked worriedly as Joanna took a shaky breath.
"Hilda's other half...finally got released."
"Wings and all?" Roland asked as Joanna went over to peek through the window, and was surprised to see the Krakken attacking the Trollberg Ocean as she spotted a small floating figure deep in the cloud of blue smoke.
"Wings and all..." Joanna says with a grim tone and teary eyes as we cue back to the Trollberg Ocean, and we see Stitch and the others coughing loudly while trying to blow away the blue smoke as they then glanced upwards and realized that the Krakken had let go of his captors with an airborne Experiment 626 holding onto Jumba and Woodman as they spotted Hilda emerging from the blue smoke while holding Frida as she and the others gasped in pure shock and awe at the sight of Hilda's New Form.
Floating before them is Hilda transformed into her Troll Form, which consists of her being a 4'2-feet-tall, 12-year-old Female Half-Troll/Half-Human/Quarter-Fairy Magical Hybrid with a pair of eyes that have glowing blue mystical scleras and black pupils, slightly longer light gray vine-like hair that was tied up into two low-hanging pigtails and a pair of dark grey stone-like yet organic antlers planted on top of her head, thin black eyebrows, a pair of pointy ears, an elongated whitish-cyan nose, a wide mouth with uneven white human-like teeth, a sharp chin, a pair of muscularly-slender whitish-cyan four-fingered arms, two big slits planted on her back as it had a pair of mystic blue/black butterfly-like wings popped out of them, stone-like whitish-cyan skin with small deep and pronounce cracks planted across her whole body, a slender muscularly-toned build, a pair of muscularly-slender whitish-cyan three-toed legs, and she was currently wearing her Witch Outfit, which consisted of a big black lopsided witch hat with a white stripe that had a black belt buckle, a black cloak that was strapped across her shoulders as it reaches down to her waist with white accents, her long-sleeved dark brown sweater with yellow cuffs/accents, long yellow skirt with brown shorts underneath, black tights, and, of course, her iconic red rain boots.
"Youga a Troll?!"
"Blue-Haired Girl is a Troll?!"
"My best friend is a Troll?!"
"Sweet lord!"
"Hilda is a Troll?!"
"My friend is a Troll?!"
"The kid is a Troll?!"
"My Cousin is a Troll?!"
"Holy moly!"
"Whoa, wicked!"
"Holy crap! Hilda What's Your Name is a Troll?!" Stitch, Jumba, Frida, Logan, Louise, David, Pleakley, Marcus, Alfur, Astrid, Erik, and Greda exclaimed in shock and awe as a stunned Hilda glanced down at her body and then at her butterfly-like wings as she gasped in amazement and wonder.
"I'm a Troll?! I'm a Troll!"
"You are a Troll, but you are standing in the sunlight and can talk!" A stunned Frida says while gripping Hilda's body as she was stunned to find out that her friend now had stone-like skin.
"I-I can. I think it's because I'm Half-Human...or I think that's what my Dad told me. Sorry, my magically repressed memories were just all shoved into my head, so it's a bit fuzzy to remember." Hilda says with a sheepish grin while flapping her wings around as Frida stares at them in wonder and awe.
"Wow, your wings are so beautiful...wait, why do you have wings? Or antlers for that matter."
"I'm...not sure. I have to ask my Mum about it because my new magical memories are still fuzzy." Hilda says before glancing down at her Troll Body and Fairy Wings as she teared up.
"Whoa, what's wrong, Hilda?" A concerned Frida asked as Hilda sniffled and gave her a watery smile.
"I-I'm okay, Frids. It's just that...this...this is the real me. It's always been the real me. I can't believe that I was scared of this. I...finally feel complete." Hilda says before remembering the truth about her father as she teared up. "Daddy, I'm so sorry for what happened. I promise to make this right and use my powers for good." Hilda promised while shedding a tear...before pausing a bit as she sweated nervously. "Uh, Frida? I just realized something."
"What is it?"
"Well, I never had wings as a child. These things seem to be new so...I don't know how to fly!" A panicking Hilda yelled just as her wings stopped flapping as she and Frida began falling down through the air as the girls screamed in fear and held onto each other for dear life as they then crashed down into one of the Krakken's tentacles with Hilda taking the full brunt of the landing as they groaned a bit before noticing the Krakken glaring down at them angrily as the Magical Hybrid then gained a determined look and stood up from the floor while holding Frida in a bridal style position as she reflexively hid away her wings.
"Well, I may not know how to fly, but I know how to run! Hold on, Frida!" Hilda screamed with Frida gripping her tightly as she then ran forward just as the Krakken raised three of her tentacles and sent them down towards the girls with the smirking Magical Hybrid ran forward at high speeds as she then leaped up high into the air and kicked away one of the tentacles as Hilda landed down on the ground and twirled around to roundhouse kicked the second tentacle away as she leaped up high into the air and landed on the third tentacle as the Magical Hybrid used her superhuman strength to crouch down and jumped up, extremely high into the air as they hovered above the Krakken and the girls began falling forward as Hilda and Frida reared back their glowing blue/pink hands while letting out loud battle cries as, instead of punching the magical creatures, the girls instead merely landed on top of the Krakken and placed their hands on her forehead.
Closing their glowing blue/pink eyes in concentration, Hilda and Frida were able to set up a psychic link between all of them with their scleras turning yellow and gaining heart-shaped red pupils as fifteen of the Krakken's eyes glowed blue while her other fifteen eyes began glowing pink as the girls began telepathically telling the Krakken that they don't mean any harm to her or her babies and even told the Krakken about all of the sunken broken wooden Pirate Ships placed on the oceanfloor near them and that it's perfect to feed her babies with as the Krakken was shocked but grateful for their help and asked how could she ever repay them and Hilda and Frida asked if they had seen the Woodman's body anywhere in the ocean and the Krakken not only seen it before but knows where it is and had called up one of her babies to go over and fetch it for the girls as the Krakken's eyes then stopped glowing blue/pink and Hilda and Frida's eyes and hands stopped glowing blue/pink as their eyes turned back to normal.
"Hey! Everything okay over here?!" Logan asked while swimming closer to the Krakken and the girls as Stitch, Louise, and Linda flew over to them while still holding or carrying around Jumba, Woodman, David, Pleakley, Marcus, Alfur, Astrid, and the Lost Clan as Hilda and Frida turned to give a thumbs up to the group, who all cheered loudly that the day was saved as, of course, Erik Ahlberg had to ruin it by arriving onto the scene on his boat with Gerda and the others.
"Stay focused! We got it on the back foot! This time I won't miss!" Erik says while holding what seems to be a harpoon missile that he got from the cabin on the boat in case of an emergency.
"No, stop!/Don't shoot!" Everyone screamed panickedly as Erik ignored them and aimed his weapon at the Krakken, Hilda, and Frida as he opened fire and fired a big harpoon that was about to fly over and hit the girls, only for the Krakken to reach up and grab the harpoon as she easily crushed it in half with a menacing glare on her face.
"Don't fret, men! Use whatever weapon that you have and open-,"
"Shut up! Shut up, you idiot! You always talk, Erik Ahlberg! You talk and you talk and you say, 'Let me tell you something' and 'I just want to say this'! Well, you're done now, so shut up!" Logan snapped at Erik Ahlberg, who flinched in fear and spotted the Krakken growling at him angrily as well as Hilda and the others as he realized that this fight was a lost cause and ordered Gerda for them to retreat as they did so and the Krakken cooed as she then began swimming away with her babies.
"Whew, man, that was close," Hilda says with Frida nodding in agreement before realizing that the Krakken was moving away from Trollberg as the Witch Girl quickly whistled loudly, allowing her Magic Broom to appear on the scene as she went over to mount on it and Hilda did the same as Frida tried to fly them away, but failed due to a very obvious and glaring problem.
"Hilda? Do you mind changing back into your Human Form or something? Can you even change back?" Frida asked worriedly as Hilda blushed sheepishly and nodded while covering herself with a puff of blue smoke to morph back into her Human Form, allowing the girls to take flight as they flew down towards Stitch, Jumba, and Woodman as Louise and Linda flew over to them as well as the Water Spirit returned and shapeshifted himself into a large and thick circle as everyone landed on the ground.
"Dragon Down!" Louise exclaimed as cyan icy wind and crystals burst out of her body as she slowly transformed back into her Human Form, and Hilda and Frida then snapped their fingers as dual flashes of blue/pink lights covered their bodies, and we see the girls transforming themselves back into their Civilian Forms as Frida then snaps her fingers again and a poof of pink smoke covered David's body as we see him wearing his Civilian Clothes again as Stitch grunts and a dark purple demonic cloud covered his body as he transforms back into his Alien Form and hid away his alien appendages as Logan and Marcus morphed back into their Normal Forms as Jumba, Pleakley, Woodman, Alfur, and Astrid merely stood still and did nothing.
"Good job, girls, you both saved the day." A smiling Logan says as everyone else, except for the Woodman, nodded in agreement.
"Technically, mid-afternoon," Woodman says with a joking tone as they all laughed.
"Anyway, did you two talk to the Krakken?" Louise asked curiously as the girls nodded.
"Yes...well, maybe. We're not so sure exactly." Frida admitted with a shrug as Hilda nodded in agreement.
"Yeah, it was hard to make sense of. The Krakken's mind is not as chaotic as Stitch's mind but it was close."
"The good news is that we were able to point her in the right direction," Frida says as she and the others spotted the Krakken and her Babies swimming through the Trollberg Ocean, far away from the city of Trollberg.
"And another good news is that we got one bit of helpful info." Hilda says with a smirk just as a Baby Krakken appears out of the ocean as she spits out the Woodman's body before turning around to swim after her mother as the Woodman perks up, and Jumba walks over to place his head down near his body as the Wood Folk concentrated and was able to 'put on' his head as he sighed in relief.
"Oh, never missed somebody like I missed you," Woodman says while hugging himself as the gang laughed a bit.
"So, Hilda unlock Magic Genes?" Stitch asked curiously as Hilda nodded with an excited smile on her face.
"Oh, yeah, and it feels so good to finally be me! Check this out! Human! Troll! Human! Troll! Human! Troll! Human! Troll! Human! Troll! Human! Troll! Human! Troll! Human! Troll! Human! Troll! Human!

Hilda screamed while repeatedly transforming from her Human Form to her Troll Form with multiple puffs of blue smoke as she then settled on her Troll Form.
"Whoa, no offense, but this is a bit freaky." A slightly creeped-out Pleakley says as an intrigued Jumba walks over to study Hilda's Troll Body.
"How interesting. You look like a perfect combination of a Human and a Troll." Jumba says as he began touching Hilda's face, antlers, the big slits on her back, and her arms. "Your skin looks Human but feels like the skin of a Troll, and you have these weird antlers and wings? How fascinating. You can also speak perfect English, survive in the sunlight, and fly...even if you lost control over it. Anyway, you are like the perfect blend of a Human and a Troll. In Jumba's eyes, you are the perfect abomination of nature like Experiment 626. Does Jumba have permission to study your strange magical hybrid body?" Jumba pleaded as Hilda gave him a bemused look and nodded, knowing that he didn't mean anything bad by calling her an abomination as she then perked up.
"Oh, yeah, guess what, guys? Not only did I finally unlock my Magical Genes, but I also got my memories of the magical side of my life back too. For example, the reason why I'm a Magical Hybrid is because my Dad is a Troll."
"Wait, really? A shocked David asked as an excited Hilda nodded.
"Yeah, he's a Troll who used magic to morph himself into a Human! Oh, man, I have so much to tell you guys. Like how I used to live in Trollberg until we moved out when I was four years old because I couldn't control my powers and got caught by the Trollberg Safety Patrol, and I have gained so many great and amazing memories of my time in the woods like..." Hilda says before trailing off as she remembers her Father's Death and teared up as the others give her worried looks.
"Uh, Hilda? You okay, cus?" Marcus asked as Hilda sniffled and wiped away her tears.
"Y-Yeah, I am. I will explain to you guys about my...bad memories in the future when I'm ready to tell you." Hilda says before remembering something as she grows angry and turns to glare at the Woodman. "But for now, I have a bone to pick with you, Woodman. You knew this whole time that my Dad and I were Trolls, and you never told me?!"
"Well, to be fair, it was none of my business to say. I did find it weird that you haven't transformed into your Troll Form in like years, so I asked your Mum about it and she told me to keep it a secret from you." Woodman explained as Hilda's expression darkened a bit, and sighed heavily as she crossed her arms.
"Alright, I think it's about time that I have a serious talk with my Mum once we go back to shore."
"Tub ni het meantoka, weega shishi eb haka hat weega waka blaba ot hopa Mr. Skull teg rika fo heega cusa nad heega nac mova no ot het aflalive wok (But in the meantime, we should be happy that we were able to help Mr. Skull get rid of his curse and he can move on to the afterlife now)," Stitch says with a soft awkward smile, trying to cheer up Hilda as she smiled softly and Louise turned over to Linda and the Lost Clan.
"Thanks for your help, guys."
"Anytime," Bartel says with a smug grin as a curious Alfur glances up at Linda.
"So after finding out that your home was really the shell of a giant Krakken, where are you going to live now?"
"Well, I was thinking of going back to live on 'Cauldron Island' after the Krakken comes back and goes back to sleep for another 175 years," Linda says with a shrug while floating up into the air as she waves at everyone. "Thanks for saving my life, everyone. Until we meet again."
"Hey, do you mind flying the Lost Clan back to Trollberg?" Astrid asked as Linda nodded and lowered herself down to allow the Lost Clan to climb up her body.
"Do you mind giving me a lift back to the woods too?" Woodman asked as Linda rolled her eyes dryly but nodded and allowed him to climb up her body as she then took them off into the air and we then fast forward to nighttime as we see Hilda and Stitch arriving back at their apartment and appeared at their front door as the blue-haired girl stared up at the door and sweated nervously as Experiment 626 reached over to grab her hand and gave it a comforting squeeze, silently telling her that he will stand by her side and support her no matter what as she smiled and nodded before opening the door as they walked in and spotted Joanna and Roland standing in front of them stoically as Tontu walked onto the scene and realized how tense the situation was and was quick to make a beeline to Nowhere Space and get his dinner elsewhere.
"You've lied to me, Mother,"
"About that?" Joanna asked with an emotionless tone while dropping her tea as a very angry Hilda silently transformed into her Troll Form with a puff of blue smoke as she was still wearing her casual clothes, which consisted of a black beret, a long-sleeved dark brown sweater with yellow cuffs/accents, a long yellow skirt with brown shorts underneath, black tights, and, of course, her iconic red rain boots. "...Okay, I'm going to come clean. Yes, Hilda. I did lie to you, and not only about you being a Troll, but also this." Joanna says while taking a deep breath as her entire body is surrounded by a bright pink light, and once it dies down, the gang is stunned to see Joanna transformed into her Fairy Form, even Roland, as this was the first time that he had seen her like this.
Standing before them is Joanna transformed into her Fairy Form, which consists of her being a 5'8-feet-tall, 31-year-old Female Half-Human/Half-Fairy Magical Hybrid with a pair of black eyes, long light auburn hair that reaches down to her back with a large bang that covered her eyes lightly and has magical pink highlights, pointy ears, a big pointy nose, a sharp chin, F-Cup Breasts, two big slits planted onto her back as it had a pair of pink/black butterfly-like wings popped out of it, Light Skin, a tall slender hourglass figure with hartman hips, a thick bubble butt, and her outfit consists of a black hooded cloak wrapped around her neck, a long-sleeved green dress that reaches down to her legs and has yellow/red designs planted in the bottom and wore no shoes.
"W-What?! Mum, what are you!?" A shocked Hilda asked as Joanna smiled warmly.
"The real me. I'm a Half-Human from my Mother's side and Half-Fairy on my Father's side. Just like how you are Half-Human and a Quarter Fairy from my side and a Half-Troll from your Father's side." Joanna says before turning to a stunned Roland. "So... what do you think?"
"You look beautiful, enchanting," Roland says with an entranced look as Hilda, whose anger was momentarily simmered, nodded in agreement, and Joanna then turned to Hilda with a remorseful look on her face.
"Look, Hilda, after what happened with your Father, I just thought that it was for the best for you to forget about your magical side of the family and have everyone believe that you were just a normal little girl-,"
"What if I don't want to be normal?!" Hilda shouted over her Mother angrily as she stepped forward, and her steps shook the apartment as Stitch followed after her. "What if I hate being like a normal girl and having a dull and boring life?! Maybe I like exploring through the forest, talking, and befriending magical and alien creatures! Maybe I always secretly resented being a normal and average girl! Maybe I want to be more special?! Have you ever thought of that?! And it's not enough to not tell me what I am or what you are, but you can't even tell me that I'm gonna be a big sister either!" Hilda screamed, shocking Joanna intensely as her jaw dropped and glanced down at her pregnant belly.
"H-How did you-,"
"Mum, I maybe 12-years-old and used to live in the forest for the majority of my life, but even I know about the birds and the bees! I mean, come on, you barely tried to hide the fact that you are pregnant!" Hilda yelled angrily while pointing over at Joanna's swollen stomach as she then pointed over at Stitch. "And I had Stitch verify that you were pregnant when we were floating to the Trollberg Harbor. I can't believe that you would hide the fact that I'm going to be a Big Sister soon from me too. When will all of these lies end?!"
"You're pregnant? We are pregnant?" A stunned yet happy Roland as a glaring Hilda turned to him.
"Butt out of this, Roland! This isn't any of your business!"
"Hey, there's no need to snap at Roland!" Joanna says, defending her boyfriend with a glare on her face as Hilda rolls her eyes.
"Oh, please, why shouldn't I? He's not really a part of our family, so he shouldn't mess with it!"
"Hey, I know that you are very angry at Joanna for lying to you, Hilda. Trust me, I know, but two things. One, be mad at me for hiding the secret from you as well for several months now, and two, you are not exactly a saint either. You have also lied. Like how you lied about going to do a Safety Patrol Activity when you were really fighting against a giant Krakken!" Roland yelled while pointing over at the news as it showed a live broadcast of Hilda and the others confronting the Krakken as, thankfully, the cameras were too far away to get a good look at the Trollberg Justice Patrol, but anyone who already knew them could recognize them easily. "We were worried sick!"
"Okay, maybe I did lie about what I did today and maybe when we were busy dealing with the Troll Circle and when Erik tried to set up those stupid Automated Bells, but what Mum lied about is WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY worse! You lied to me about what I was! About what Dad was! About what you are! And my little brother or sister! You kept all of these lies from me and kept this huge part of my life hidden from me! You made me hide who I truly was and that truly hurts the most! And what's worse is that you told your boyfriend about my secret before me! Your own daughter! I can't believe that my own Mother would do this to me!" Hilda said with teary eyes and choked back a sob as a guilty Joanna bit her lip nervously.
"Hilda, please, just let me explain-," Joanna says before getting cut off by Hilda morphing back into her Human Form with a puff of blue smoke and turning around to run over to her and Stitch's Shared Room as Experiment 626 gave Joanna and Roland a disappointed look before walking after his sister as he closed the door behind them and the young couple heard Hilda crying loudly and being comforted by Stitch as Joanna teared up and Roland went over to hug her as she cried in his arms. "I'm sorry, Hilda. I'm so, so, sorry..."
~[Post Credit Scene]~
"So...Hilda and her friends are all a group of magical creatures and aliens, huh?" Erik thought to himself stoically while residing inside of the Trollberg Safety Patrol Headquarters as Gerda stood near him, and both of them could be seen standing in front of a chalkboard that was filled with tons of pictures of the Trollberg Justice Patrol as, thankfully, neither of them have a photo of Hilda and the others in their magical superforms due to them not having a camera with them at the time of the Krakken Attack. "It's all starting to make sense now."
"What should do with them, sir?" Gerda asked seriously as Erik grinned sinisterly.
"Oh, now that I know what they all are, I can safely say that Hilda and her Friends are a huge threat to Trollberg and must be captured and exterminated."
"But, sir, don't you think it's wrong to kill a bunch of innocent civilians?" A concerned Gerda asked as Erik scoffed and rolled his eyes.
"Oh, please. Innocent? They are not innocent. They are monsters and our job is to terminate monsters who are a threat to Trollberg and judging by what we saw today, they could destroy all of Trollberg in a matter of hours. Maybe even less. We must deal with them immediately...but sadly, we can't. Without proper evidence of who Hilda and the others are, I can't legally capture and exterminate all of them without getting in trouble with the citizens of Trollberg, so we are going to let them live their precious lives...for now until we can find the evidence to prove that they are monsters hellbent on destroying the city of Trollberg and all of the Civilians inside. Once we do, then we will be able to capture them and destroy them once and for all." Erik says with a malicious grin on his face as Gerda looks away worriedly and somberly as she sighs heavily.
And done. I hope you guys enjoyed the new chapter, and I can't wait to write the next chapter.
Anyway, as always, I will catch you all later.
