"May I come in?". Ursula slowly swayed the seaweed to the side.

Cece was stuck to Azul like glue, but she didn't fall asleep. "Go away, we're sleeping".

"Cece, it was an impulse decision. I didn't know what I was doing at the moment".

"He's in this state because of you mom. I know that you are better at magic than you say, but if it endangers someone I care about then it’s time that you better tell me". Cece hugged Azul tighter.

"I'm the Sea Witch". Ursula waited for a reply.

Cece blinked twice to process the information. She then went into a laughing fit. "I'm also a sea witch mom. Sea Witches are mers who know magic".

"No, not A sea witch. THE Sea Witch".

"No way". Cece was smiling a little too much. Her mom, THE Sea Witch? Ha! No way.

"Cece, my dear daughter, my child, my offspring, the hatchling from the eggs I laid, my second greatest headache". Ursula held Cece's shoulders then violently shook her.

"Yessss?". Cece stopped Ursula’s shaking.

"I'm THE Sea Witch, I have proof and can show you".

"Show us". Cece was talking about her, Azul, Kai, and her husband too probably.

"I will, I promise. But first let me show you something, I'll show you Kai".

"You could have shown me where Kai was all this time? All that worrying for nothing!". Cece got up from the seaweed bed to join her mom.

"If he was in a near death situation then I would know about it". Ursula shook her off.

"Well just show me where he is. I just want to know if at least one of my sons is okay".

"The shock will only work for another three hours or so".

Ursula led Cece to the garden. It especially looked better after she fixed it with her magic. She remembered that the last time she fixed a coral reef was when she did that contest with Triton. She won it fair and square, but he's a sore loser.

****************

"Mom, it has been half an hour. What are you looking for?". Cece watched as Ursula was searching every inch of the garden for something. Ursula said that she didn't need help, but evidence proved otherwise.

"Here!". Ursula finally found it.

It was a big glass ball. It shined in the water like nothing Cece has ever seen. Ursula set it on some sturdy coral and went back to the house.

"Why is there a glass ball in my garden?". Cece followed her mom inside.
