Chapter 13: Battle With The Pirates
Malia's P.O.V.
After we finished our sing/dance-off, my sister walked forward to give Uma the wand. However, the daughter of Ursula stopped her.
"Hold up. Too easy." she said as Hallie and I exchanged looks of confusion.
"Why don't you give it a test drive? We want to see it work."
My eyes widened as I exchanged looks with Jay. I squeezed his hand as Mal spoke up.
"You always were quite the drama queen." my sister told Uma. "Oh. And nothing too big or else Ben is fish bait." Uma added.
"We're dead." Jay said. "No, we're not. Not on my watch." I replied.
Mal looked at us and Carlos nudged his head to the side. I looked and saw Dude there.
How'd he get here?
Mal looked back at Uma before turning her attention towards the dog.
"Although it seems absurd, turn your bark into a word." Mal said before she waved the wand.
I felt anxiety coursing through me as Jay rubbed the top of my hand to calm me down.
"Talk dog." Mal ordered the dog.
"Does this vest make me look fat?" the dog whispered, making all of Uma's crew laugh and my friends and I sigh with relief.
"Give me the wand!" Uma told Mal.
"Give me Ben!" Mal fired back at her.
"Harry, bring him over." the teal-haired girl ordered my former best friend.
Harry did as he was told before Ben was on his knees in front of Mal. They exchanged arms demanding the trade.
"Cut him lose, Harry." Uma said.
Harry locked eyes with Hallie and she looked at him with sorrow. I placed a hand on her shoulder in reassurance.
"I never get to have any fun." he complained as he cut the ropes off of Ben.
Mal grabbed her ex-boyfriend's hand as she handed the fake wand to Uma.
The crew cheered as she walked off with them.
"By the power of the wind and sea, tear it down and set us free!" Uma yelled, making the crew cheer.
She had a look of shock on her face as it didn't work and she looked at me, Mal, Ben, Jay, Carlos, Lonnie, and Ben.
She realized that the wand was fake.
"No!" she yelled before she used her knee to snap it in half.
"You do not get to win every time!"
Jay got a barrel filled with the swords and we each got one.
"Get them!" Uma commanded her crew.
Carlos began shooting smoke bombs at the pirates and I looked up, seeing Janessa use a bow and arrow with Melanie throwing smoke bombs as well while riding the Pegasus.
Jay and I ran before we began to fight some of the pirates. We stood back-to-back, clashing weapons with our opponents.
I fought a crew member and busted some moves Lonnie taught me before sending him into the sea.
I fought a couple of more crew members, sending them into the ocean or knocking them out.
"Go, Jay! I can handle this!" I told him.
He nodded before he chased after a crew member a few feet away.
I turned and was met with Gil. "Hi, beautiful." he said.
"I'm engaged, back off!" I yelled as we began fighting.
I ducked from a swing by his sword and slid underneath him. He turned around and our swords clashed before I performed some kind of headscissors takedown on him, sending him into a couple barrels.
My hand caught his wrist and I sent him flying over my head. He landed on a couple of crew members before I ran off.
I saw Jay struggling with a handful of crew members.
Instantly, I sprinted over there through the arrows Janessa was shooting as she Melanie commanded the Pegasus.
I grabbed a barrel and tossed it. It hit three of the crew members. I fought the rest of the crew members on my way to my fiancé. My back was close to Jay's.
"Let's do this!" he said.
We began fighting our foes before they were out of our way. We got to where Evie, Mal, Hallie, Lonnie, and Carlos were. Evie tossed a smoke bomb as Ben joined us.
"Guys, go!" Mal told us.
Jay grabbed my hand and we all ran through the pipe until we got to the alley.
We got outside and went inside the limo. I sat in the passenger seat as Jay drove off.
He pressed the button and opened the barrier as we crossed it. He grabbed my hand and kissed it.
"We're gonna be okay, Malia. I promise." he told me.
"You're right." I replied as he smiled.
"Let's just have fun at cotillion tonight. You and me." Jay said.
"Forever?" I asked.
"Forever." he replied.
