"I wonder how Mal is. She's been there for a while."

Evie asked uneasy at her friend's delay.

"If something wrong had happened, we'd know."

Hades reassured the girl, while eating a delicious fruit.

"I agree with him, Mal can take care of himself."

Carlos spoke from the top of the tree eating the same fruit as the god.

"I don't know if you should be eating something you don't know."

Rashid said concerned about Mal and the amount of fruit they were eating.

"What about you? Are you not going to say anything or are you just not worried?"

Hades questioned Ben's silence.

"I'm trying to think of something else."

Ben warned.

"I think pumpkin head might be right, that fruit is spoiled."

Jay said as he looked up at the sky.

"Are you feeling anything Jay?"

Evie asked concerned for her friend who up until that moment had been quiet.

"I'm having a hallucination." Everyone stopped to look at Jay, who still kept his eyes on the sky. "I see Mal flying."

"I warned you not to eat..."

Rashid started to give Jafar's son a drill, but was interrupted.

"Rashid."

Carlos grabbed the man's face and showed him the huge purple shadow in the sky.

"Man..."

He found himself at that moment awestruck and trying to make sense of this sight.

"I know."

Ben said as surprised as everyone else.

"Hi to you guys."

Mal said landing on the ground.

"You...you...what?"

Carlos said.

"I agree with Carlos."

Evie spoke still keeping her distance from her friend.

"Three, what happened to you?"

Jay asked unable to formulate a full sentence.

"I think we have a lot to talk about, but long story short, I'm a fairy and being a fairy..."

"You have wings."

Rashid came to the obvious conclusion.

"Exactly, here is the arrow." Mal handed Hades the object. "The arrow hidden in the tree in the human world."

"One down, what will be our next destination?"

Hades asked glimmering with the arrow.

"Can't we take a rest?" The fairy asked. "The day has been... strange." It wasn't the word she wanted, but she couldn't think of another that could sum up the discovery of wings and the revealing conversation with a tree. "I need a night's sleep."

"Mal, I think it's dangerous."

Rashid warned.

"But, Maleficent doesn't even know where Mal is."

Jay hunched.

"And it needs to stay that way."

Ben said.
