Descendants What If...? {💯%}

What if Jay didn't pull Harry aside?

We all know how (in Descendants 3) Harry got pulled aside by Jay when Beast-Ben tried to attack him.
But I couldn't stop thinking what would've happened if he didn't...
So here you go!

-

The four guys walked into the forest, Gil and Jay had this little bonding moment and it got on Harry's nerves.
"You two are killing me!" he complained.
Carlos was sitting on this rock thingy fiddling with a small twig in his hands and Harry turned to him.
"By the way, that mutt of yours went that way." he said as he pointed to the direction where Dude ran off to.
"What did you find buddy?" Carlos called out after Dude as he got up, being followed by Jay, Gil and Harry.

"I see nothing." Gil said and Harry rolled his eyes.
"Stupid dog..." he mumbled.
Then a growling beast jumped forward.
"What the-!?" Jay exclaimed and Carlos jumped back.
"That dog should get his nose checked!" Harry cussed.
"I- I'm not so sure... Ben?" Carlos tried.
"Huh, I thought I recognised those pants." Jay mumbled.
"How would you-?" Gil said but he got cut off by Ben who jumped forwards.
"Look out!" Harry yelled and he four of them dodged Ben.
But as Ben noticed Harry, his eyes narrowed and he lunched at him.
Jay thought Ben was aiming for him and jumped back, then Ben clawdd Harry in the face.
"FUCK!" Harry yelled, he didn't back away in time and he felt his cheek bleeding.
"Harry!" Gil said and he rushed to his friend.
"Fuck..." Harry mumbled and a voice yelled something.
"Boys, get back!" a girl's voice yelled and Jane appeared, spraying water from the enchanted lake on Ben, turning him (mostly) back to human.
"That was weird..." Ben mumble dand his eyes widened as he saw how Gil desperately tried to help Harry with his wounds.
"...did I do that?" Ben asked with a small voice and Jane gasped softly as she saw Harry's face.
"Here, it's clean... For the bleeding..." Jane said as she handed Harry some sort of handkerchief.
"...thanks." he mumbled.
"I am so so sorry!" Ben said and Carlos looked at Harry.
"Not trying to be mean... But your eye looks pretty bad..." he said and Harry scoffed.
"I know that Jay stands over there but I don't see him, so it's pretty obvious that I'm blind on my left eye from now on." he snarled and he glared at Ben, who's face was filled with guilt.
"We should get back to the girls, Evie might be able to help a bit with those claw wounds..." Jay mumbled and Ben got a bright moment.
"Wait a minute, why are Gil and Harry here in the first place?"
"They jumped through the barrier and they are on our side now." Carlos said and Jane looked at Harry with concern.
"Does it hurt much?" she asked and Harry mumbled something under his breath, I mean yea Jane, of course it hurts!
"Through the barrier but-?" Ben said but Carlos cuf him off.
"Details will follow... Maybe Mal and Uma figured something out for Audrey." Carlos said.
"Hold up, Uma?" Ben asked and Jay looked at him.
"Yea, details will follow."
"Wait, you guys went to the isle?" Ben stated and everyone glared at him.
"Details will follow!" they exclaimed and Ben gulped.

As the guys and Jane arrived back at tEvie her cottage, Uma her eyes widened as she saw Harry.
"What happend to you?!" she exclaimed with worries.
"Beasty boy clawed me in the face and now I'm blind at my left eye... Plus I'm getting a few new scars." Harry mumbled and even Evie, Mal, Doug and Celia were shocked of what happened.
"Uma, Mal, you explain the plan to the guys and Jane. I'll help Harry with his wounds." Evie said and she mentioned to Harry to follow her, which he did after a moment of hesitation.

"What is that stuff-!?" Harry snarled as he gritted his teeth.
"It's to clean those wounds... hold still!" Evie cussed as she gently put a cloth with rubbing alcohol on his cheek.
"Fuck off with that shit! It burns like hell!" Harry complained and Evie sighed.
"Well at least those wounds are clean now... I'll grab you some bandage for the wounds... Hopefully they won't get infected or else you got some serious problems..."
"Bigger problems then being blind on one eye?" Harry scoffed.
"Yea, since it's in your face, an infection could spread easily to your brain and it could and would kill you."
"Sounds delightful..." Harry mumbled and Evie looked at him.
"Okay, let's reunite with the others." she said as she finished attaching the bandage on Harry's cheek on his eyebrow, since the claw wounds were from his eyebrow all the way down to his chin.
"Yea..." Harry mumbled.

After they all defeated Audrey and all, everyone sat in Audrey's room (besides Gil, Jane and Doug, since they were still outside somewhere).
"She's slipping away..." Evie mumbled.
"Too bad, she gonna be dead..." Harry mumbled and Uma gave him a nudge.
"Not the time." Uma sissed and Harry sighed.
"There's only one person who can save her... Hades." Mal said and Ben looked at her.
"He'd never. I wouldn't risk it."
"He might do it for me, I'm his daughter." Mal said and everyone (besides Evie) looked at her in shock.
"...I'll let some guards pick him up." Ben mumbled.
"Can I go back to the isle? Since the barrier will mever open again... I don't want to be away from my dad..." Celia said.
"Can I go too? The isle is my home." Uma said and Harry got up, placing his hands on Uma's shoulders from behind.
"Guess I'll be coming too, I am your first-mate after all." he said and both of them knew that Gil would join them, which they did.

"Good luck showing yourself to your sisters and your dad." Uma said as Harry was peeling the bandage off his face, the bleeding already stopped.
"I'll see you guys tomorrow." Harry said as he tried to smile, but it made his face hurt.
"Yea, see ya tomorrow!" Gil said and he hurried home to his brothers and dad.
Then Uma looked at Harry.
"Be honest, does it still hurt much?"
"A bit... But don't worry. I'll be fine, just gotta get used to a blind left eye." Harry said and Uma looked at him.
"I got something for your pain." she said and she kissed Harry's right cheek (the side which wasn't clawed).
"I thought you said we were just friends?" Harry said softly.
"See you tomorrow." Uma said softly and she walked away.
"Wait, what does that mean!?" Harry called after her but Uma already left.

Harry sighed as he entered the Hook house.
"Anybody home?" he called out and Cj ran to him.
"You're back!" she said happily and she hugged him.
She only saw his cheek after she released him.
"OH MY GOD WHAT HAPPENED!?" she yelled and Harriette and Captain Hook entered the room quickly, because of Cj's yelling.
"Holy shit Harry!" Harriette exclaimed.
"What the hell happened to you in Auradon?" Hook asked as he turned Harry's face, examining the wounds.
"I got clawed in the face by the king who got turned into a beast thanks to a curse... I'm not blind on my left eye..." Harry said and Harriette looked at him.
"Are you okay?" she asked with concern.
"No... But I will be."
"At least you're getting some cool scars!" Cj said, trying to look for something positive.
"Yea, too bad they're in my face..." Harry mumbled.
"At least you finally got rid of that baby-face of yours." Hook scoffed and Harry looked at him with offence.
"Hey-!"
