"Go away, mother!" Mal told her.

Maleficent laughs. "She's funny." She snorts, shaking her head. "Oh, I'm so...You're very funny here." She turns to face Elisa and gestures for her to give her the wand. "Wand me. Chop-chop."

"No!" Ben shouted worriedly when Elisa acted as if she was handing her the wand. At the last second, she tossed the wand to Fairy Godmother, who caught it and held it tightly.

"Bibbidi-Bobbidi-"

"Boo!" Maleficent interrupted Fairy Godmother's spell and used her magic scepter to freeze everyone but Elisa and the four VKs. Everyone looked around in surprise and shock, their movements restricted. Elisa looked around with surprise to see everyone was frozen. No one moved or spoke, their faces etched with shock, fear, concern or worry. She looked back at Maleficent, her gaze hardened. Maleficent was amused by their reactions and laughed, looking over at Elisa.

"You are such an impressive girl." She tells her. "That was a little neat trick you pulled there, but unfortunately, not good enough." She smirked and turned to Adam, beginning to mess with his frozen form.

Elisa's gaze hardened as she glared at Maleficent. She wanted nothing more than to knock the smug look off of her face, but she knew she couldn't. At least not yet. She paused, glancing down at her gloved covered hands. Well, maybe she could freeze her and put an end to her reign of terror once and for all. She clenched her fists, feeling a surge of determination coursing through her veins. But before she could make her move, Maleficent turned her attention back to her.

"You know, dear, you could have been so much more," Maleficent taunts, her voice dripping with disdain. "But you chose to align yourself with these insignificant fools." She gestured towards the VKs and Ben with a derisive sneer.

Elisa's jaw tightened, her gaze flickering with defiance. "You call your own daughter an insignificant fool? Wow, mother of the year goes to you." She sarcastically stated.

"Silence!" Maleficent snapped, glaring at the blonde.

"Make me." Elisa challenged, her gaze not wavering from Maleficent's. 

"As you wish." Maleficent sneered.

Before Elisa could react, Maleficent casted a spell that made Elisa disappear. The four VKs watched in shock, gasping when she disappeared as Maleficent cackled maniacally. They looked around worriedly for their friend, wondering where she had disappeared to.

"Mom!" Mal scolds, glaring at Maleficent. "Where did you send her?"

Maleficent shrugs. "Who knows, but it's none of your concern. It's not like you four ever really cared about her. She was merely a means to an end for you."

"That's not true!" Mal protests, her voice filled with anger and frustration. "Elisa is our friend. She's always been there for us."

Maleficent rolls her eyes. "Oh please, spare me the sentimentality. You've never cared about anyone but yourself, so don't try and fool me."

Mal growls. "That's where you're wrong! Just because we came here to take the wand doesn't mean we stopped caring about her. We've been through a lot together, and she's always had our backs. We may have made mistakes, but Elisa has always been a true friend to us."

Maleficent scoffs. "How pathetic."

"She's not pathetic!" Carlos argues, speaking up despite the fear and uncertainty in his voice. "She's been nothing but kind and compassionate to us. She has believed in us even when we didn't believe in ourselves." 

Jay nods, stepping forward. "Yeah, she's part of our family, whether you like it or not."

Evie, her voice shaking but determined, adds, "She's always seen the best in us, even when no one else did. Elisa is a true friend, and she doesn't deserve whatever you've done to her."

Maleficent's eyes narrowed as she listened to the VKs defend Elisa. Their words only seemed to make her bored and disinterested. "Such touching loyalty. But your words won't bring her back." She turns to her daughter. "You know what's ridiculous? I was going to let you rule the kingdom by my side. But now, I see that was just a foolish dream. Falling in love is something else that's ridiculous." She scoffed as she turned to mess with a frozen Parker. "It's not what you want."

"You don't know what I want!" Mal responds, her eyes brimming with tears. "Mom, have you ever once asked me what I want?" She questions, worry filling her while she watched her mom walk over to where a frozen Parker was. How did she know Parker meant something to her? Probably because of the fact he didn't hesitate to rush over to protect her. Now he was stood frozen by her since Maleficent had frozen everyone before he could get to Mal. "I'm not you!" She added, her voice growing louder.

Maleficent rolls her eyes. "Obviously. I've had years and years and years of practice being evil. You'll get there."

"No, I will not. And I really wish that you had never gotten there yourself." Mal admits while she sniffled. "Love is not weak or ridiculous." She couldn't help but glance over at Parker as she said that. "It's actually really amazing."

Maleficent narrows her eyes at her daughter. "I know one thing, young lady. You have no room for love in your life!" She tells her and she turns to face Parker. "He made you weak and vulnerable. Love is a weakness, Mal. It's a distraction. It clouds your judgment and makes you forget your priorities."

Mal shakes her head, tears streaming down her cheeks. "No, you're wrong. Love makes you stronger, not weaker. It gives you something to fight for, something worth sacrificing for."

Maleficent scoffs, waving her hand dismissively. "You're just a foolish girl who doesn't know what's best for her. But don't worry, I'll take care of everything. I'll make sure you forget all about this silly little crush of yours."

Mal's eyes widen in horror as her mom aimed the wand at Parker. "And now I command, wand to my hand!" She shouts, hoping that her spell would work. A breath of relief left her when she felt the weight of the wand in her hand. "It worked!" She gasped, and she gripped it tightly and quickly moved to stand between her mom and Parker, her expression fierce.

"I hardly think so. Frankly, this is tedious and very immature. Give me the wand. Give me the wand!" Maleficent ushered, getting angry now.

"Hold on, Mal." Carlos chimes in, stepping closer to Mal. "Maybe good really is more powerful than evil."

Maleficent laughs. "Oh, please! You're killing me." She barked, thinking Carlos was still scared of dogs. Dude suddenly ran into the castle, barking as he ran at Maleficent and jumped on her. Maleficent gasped and quickly got him off. While she was distracted, Jay went over to try to grab her scepter from her.

But Maleficent caught what he was doing and kept him from taking it. Jay grunts as he tries to take it from her, but Maleficent's strength was no match for his. She leans forward, smirking at him as she placed a hand on his arm. "Gaston should be jealous." She then flicks Jay's forward, causing him to fall backwards while Maleficent pulled away from him. "Enough! You all will regret this!"

The four VKs are shocked as Maleficent formed into a large purple dragon, causing them to gasp and back up. Jay gets off the floor, staring at it with wide eyes. Maleficent shoots fire at him, causing him to quickly jump out of the way. He tried to outrun Maleficent, but she kept blocking his way. Before Maleficent could get him or any of them, Evie was quick to step forward with her magic mirror, aiming it at Maleficent. "Magic mirror, show your bright light!" A bright light shot out of the mirror and fell to the floor as she had trouble seeing.

"Behind me, E!" Mal warns, pushing her behind her. "Leave my friends alone! This is between you and me, mother. The strength of evil is good as none, when stands before four hearts as one." Her eyes begin to glow green just like her mother's. They continue to stare each other down, trying to overpower each other with their magic. Mal stumbled back with shock when her mother suddenly shrunk into a lizard.

Fairy Godmother gasps when she's suddenly unfrozen. Mal smiles with relief along with her friends, the four of them running over to her. "What just happened?" Carlos questioned, confused by what had happened.

"I have no idea." Mal responded.

"Did you do it?" Evie wondered.

"I don't know." Mal replied.

"No, no, no, no. Your mother did. She shrank to the size of the love in her heart. That's why it's so itty bitty." Fairy Godmother explained, meeting the group half way.

"Is she gonna be like that forever?" Mal inquired, bending down to the lizard.

"Well, forever is a long time. You learned to love. So can she." Fairy Godmother reassured her.

Mal smiles, chuckling softly as she nods. "I believe this belongs to you." She said, handing the magic wand to her.

"You all have earned ourselves an 'A' in Goodness class." Fairy Godmother commented, earning chuckles from the group.

"Wait, Elisa! She's still gone! We don't know where she went." Mal worriedly spoke.

"Don't worry, I'll bring her back and change everything back to normal." Fairy Godmother assures her with a smile. She then waves her magic wand around, using her powers. "Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo!"

Elisa gasps, stumbling as she appears back in the castle. She looked around with confusion, her gaze falling on Mal and her friends. "What happened?" She questioned, seeing how everyone was looking confused.

"It's a long story." Mal replies, sending her a reassuring smile. "We'll explain it to you later. Are you okay? Where were you?"

"I'm fine." Elisa assures her. "But, uh, I'm not exactly sure where I was." She admits. "I was in this dark place, and then suddenly I was here." She frowned, trying to recall what happened. She remembered that she had been about to confront Maleficent, but then everything else was a blur.

"The important thing is that you're okay and that you're back." Carlos told her with a smile.

"Yeah, don't worry, we will explain to you what happened earlier." Mal assured her and she nodded in response.

Elisa looks over with surprise when Ben suddenly started roaring as he ran forward. Elisa was quick to stop him with a chuckle. "Benny, its okay. They got it all taken care of."

Relief crosses his features and he lets out a sigh. Elisa is surprised when he suddenly picked her up, wrapping his arms around her as he twirls her around. She giggles and blushes as she wraps her arms around his neck, smiling brightly. She smiles and gazes into his eyes, her heart fluttering as he stared lovingly back at her. He set her back down carefully and leaned forward to kiss her forehead. She blushed at that sweet gesture and decided to reach up and make his crown crooked on his head. He gave her a lopsided smile at that and chuckled, straightening his crown. She giggled and smiled up at him.

They pulled away to go over to their friends as one of the servants brought over the glass cover that kept the magic wand in it and placed it over Maleficent. "Careful!" Mal warns him. "That's my mother!" The servant bowed in response and backed away.

Mal then joins her friends with a smile. "Let's get this party started!" Jay suggested with a bright grin and they all grinned back at him, voicing their agreements.
