RavenDragon: Now, before we begin the final part, I have decided to take Luz's offer on the Yule Ball.

Luz: Yes!

Hunter: Are you kidding me?!

RavenDragon: I got the main room all decorated and I got gowns and suits for everyone here. The clothes are in your rooms and to our late guests, Fred and George will show you to your rooms.

Fred/George: Why us?

RavenDragon: Because you two kept popping in and scaring me.

Everyone leaves the theater and heads for their rooms. Fred shows Gus, Hunter, and King to a room for them.

Fred: Here we are gentlemen. Your room. Be ready for a most magical evening.

Fred leaves the room.

King: A place fit for a king of demons!

Hunter: Will you cut that out rat?

King: Sounds like someone's too nervous to dance with their crush.

Hunter: What? No! That's not what's happening.

Gus: I saw the looks you gave Varian. You like him.

Hunter: Can we please change the subject?!

King: Yep. He's got it bad...

Hunter: Stop it! (Walks into the bathroom with his suit to change.)

Amity, Luz, Darius, Raine, Eda, and Lilith come into the room all dressed up.

Eda: You guys ready yet? I'm hoping to get some that apple blood before it's all gone.

King: We're still waiting on Golden Boy here.

Luz: Hunter, come on! We're gonna be late!

Hunter: (inside the bathroom) I'm not coming out!

Eda: How is he supposed to be the Golden Guard with stage fright?

Willow: What did you two do?

King: Nothing!

Gus: We might have teased him about Varian.

Darius: Oh Titan.

Luz: Hunter? It's not going to be that back.

Hunter: Are you kidding? I'll look like an idiot! (Comes out of the bathroom) I can't dance. At all.

Amity: You can't dance?

Hunter: No. And I am not going to make myself look like a fool.

Eda: Leave him be. We got a party to get too.

They all leave.

Hunter:

It's not simple to say
That most days I don't recognize me
That these shoes and this apron
That place and its patrons
Have taken more than I gave them
It's not easy to know
I'm not anything like I used be, although it's true
I was never attention's sweet center
I still remember that boy

He's imperfect, but he tries
He is good, but she lies
He is hard on himself
Heis broken and won't ask for help
He is messy, but he's kind
He is lonely most of the time
He is all of this mixed up and baked in a beautiful pie
He is gone, but he used to be mine

It's not what I asked for
Sometimes life just slips in through a back door
And carves out a person and makes you believe it's all true
And now I've got you
And you're not what I asked for
If I'm honest, I know I would give it all back
For a chance to start over and rewrite an ending or two
For the boy that I knew

Who'll be reckless, just enough
Who'll get hurt, but who learns how to toughen up
When he's bruised and gets used by a man who can't love
And then he'll get stuck
And be scared of the life that's inside him
Growing stronger each day 'til it finally reminds him
To fight just a little, to bring back the fire in his eyes
That's been gone, but used to be mine
Used to be mine

He is messy, but he's kind
He is lonely most of the time
He is all of this mixed up and baked in a beautiful pie
He is gone, but he used to be mine

There was a knock at the door.

Hunter: Go away!

The knock came again.

Hunter: Darius, I know it's you.

The door opens to reveal that it was Belos/Philip.

Belos: Is that anyway to talk to your uncle?

Hunter looked up.

Hunter: Uncle? How did you get here?

Belos: The Ravendragon girl brought me. She caught me up with what's been going on. And she mentioned a ball. 

Hunter: It's just some stupid dance that I'm not even going to.

Belos: Or, you could go and have some fun. Come on.

Belos takes Hunter's hand then the two of them headed to the main room where the Yule Ball was. Everyone was dancing and having a good time. Hunter looked nervous.

Hunter: I can't do this. Let's just go back.

Varian saw Hunter.

Varian: Hunter.

Hunter froze up.

Hunter: Varian. Hi.

Belos: Oh, so you're the famous Varian.

Hunter: Uncle! Please! (groans) So embarrassing.

Varian: (laughs) I'm used to it. I got a dad that's just as embarrassing. Um... I was wondering if, maybe, you would want to dance with me? (holds out his hand.)

Hunter: I... Um... I... (looks at his uncle.)

Belos: (whispers) Go on.

Hunter: Yeah sure. I'd love to.

Hunter takes Varian's hand and the two started to slow dance beside RavenDragon who is wearing a green and gold dress was dancing with SabrinaCiper who was wearing a short purple and blue dress. 

Hunter twirled Varian then pulled him closer. The two blushed then Hunter leaned in and kissed Varian. Varian kissed him back.
