Third Person's P.O.V

         "Mal?" Purple smoke surrounds her. When it disappears there's a dragon where she was seconds ago. 

         "Ree, there's no way Mal can beat Uma on her own, not When Uma has magic." 

         "Jay, I need you to trust me. Put me down." Hesitantly He sets her down. "Stand back." Much like Mal, Blue moke surrounds Reese. Except when it disappears, a Jaberwalkie is in its place.

         "Holly crap."

         "Remind me not to make her mad." The boys nod in agreement. They watch as both Mal and Reese try to shoot, fire and lightening at Uma.

          "Come on, Mal! Let's finish this once and for all!" More water hits the boat. "WHats a matter runt afraid of a little water?" The reminder causes Reese to lose focus and turn back. Without a second thought both Carlos and Jay attempt to catch her. Using the Embers power she lands safely on the boat careful not to get any water on herself. She now has a different look. 

         "That was too close." Her carefulness and fear doesn't escape the adult's notice. Belle makes a mental note to ask her about it later. 

         "Aah! Watch out!" Jay pushes Reee out of the way a more water hit them. Ben hands Carlos his crown before roaring and jumping in to the Water.

          "Wait, Ben! No!" 

          "Ben! Ben! Ben! Ben!"

          "Mal, Uma! Stop! Back down!" Uma laughs.

          "What are you gonna do, Ben? Splash me?" She laughs again.

          "That's enough! It's got to stop! This isn't the answer! The fighting has got to stop! Nobody wins this way! We have to listen and respect each other. It won't be easy, but let's be brave enough to try. Uma, I know you want what is best for the Isle. Help me make a difference." SHe sets his ring in his hand before diving under water.

Reese's P.O.V

          I leave early considering everyone is splashing around. "Were you not enjoying the festivities?" I turn to face Belle

          "Of course I was. It's Just, water and I don't mix."

          "I noticed. The boys seemed to be just as nervous as you were. Can I ask why?"

          "When I was younger I fell off the pier. The closest friend was Dr. Facliar's. So wrapped in Jay, Carlos, Evie and Mal's coats, Jay carried me there. Ceilia his daughter, led them to a room. I was coughing up blood. According to Mally, about a month later I made a miraculous recovery. That's when we learned light magic will work. Faciliar used his voodoo magi to heal me. Then when we went to the Isle I was captured by Uma, and she got me a little wet. I was more focused on saving Ben, so I pushed aside the pain and nausea. I don't remember saving Ben or anything after warning them Uma was going to capture him."

          "That's terrible."

          "It's life on the Isle. Like I told Aiden, my mom never cared whether I was clean or fed. She didn't teach me how to walk. Dad, Pain, Panic, E, and Mally did."

          "I'm one of the few V.K's that knows who the other parent is." She hugs me.
