As they danced. Chelsea began to radiate a beautiful pink, blue, and purple light. That encased both her and Ruby inside. "For the last time. Where is the mermaid?" Shouted Nerissa. She and her sisters were interrogating the Grindylows to see if one of them saw Chelsea. A Grindylow told Nerissa that they saw Chelsea and that she was traveling with Ruby to the Well of Seas. Nerissa thanked the Grindylow and then killed him. "Come, sisters, we must get to the Well of Seas before them." Said Nerissa. 

Meanwhile, Ruby, Chelsea, and Nessie happily played together. As night approached, the trio decided to camp out for the night, and in the morning, they would continue their journey to the Well of Seas. As they slept, a mysterious voice called out to Chelsea, and she quietly swam to where the voice was. Nessie woke Ruby up, saw that Chelsea was gone, and looked for her. Chelsea followed the voice, and it led her to a mysterious cave. The young mermaid went inside and saw a Bioluminescent tube-dwelling Anemone telling Chelsea to come closer. Chelsea slowly approached the Anemone. "Chelsea, no stop!" Cried Ruby. The Anemone grabbed and stung Chelsea's forehead. Ruby tried to pull her away but was also stung by the Anemone. When she awoke, Ruby saw another Kraken heading toward her. When she got a better look at who the young Kraken was. She couldn't believe her eyes. "Grandmother, you're alive," Ruby said emotionally.
