They arrive at the palace, and head in. Elena and Isabel spotted Mateo with the idol and ran up to him. "I've been looking for guys." Mateo said. "Did you swap back yet!" "Not yet." Elena said. Mateo mentions they need to hurry since it's almost midnight. "What do we do?" Isabel asked. "I don't know, maybe we could apologize for what we said last night and see if that might work." Elena said. Isabel agreed and they began to do so.
"Isa, I never realized how hard your life is, and I'm sorry for saying it's easy." Elena said. "I'm sorry for saying how your life is easy." They both accepted each other's apology and closed their eyes, hoping that when they open their eyes they will be back in their own body. But when they opened they were still in each other's body. "It didn't work." Isabel said. "What are we going to do?" "I don't know Isa." Elena said.
Just then Fransico came over. "There you two are." He turned to Elena, not knowing it's Isabel, and said how everyone was waiting for her in the dining room to make a speech and then he went into the dining room. "I can't do this. I can't rule a kingdom. I'm not really 19. I'm a scientist not a ruler." Isabel said nervously.
"Isa, relax." Elena said to her sister. "How can I relax knowing I might be stuck as you forever! I can't rule a kingdom, I'm not you!" Isa said. "It's okay." Elena said. "You need to go in there and make a speech and say that you're playing to wait a few more years till you can be crowned queen." "What?" Isabel said, confused. "I know you aren't prepared for being queen yet. So you can tell them that you're going to need a few more years until you're ready." "I can't. You're supposed to be queen in a few months. You're better at this than me." Isa said. "I know but for now this is the way it has to go." Elena said. Isabel thought about it and said okay and left for the dining hall. "Are you really sure about this Elena?" Mateo asked. "I don't know." Elena said.Isabel entered the dining room. Filled with people from the entire kingdom. She got to the end of the table and declared she liked to make a speech. Elena and Mateo stand near the doorway of the room and Isa begins her speech. "I just wanted to mention how the past few years since I was free from the amulet, I've been learning how to be a good ruler and a good protector. I was busy learning how to do things that I didn't know someone else was preparing for her own thing. My sister Isabel had been studying for years how to become the best scientist out there. We were both studying for our own things, not paying much attention to the subject the other was doing, so we didn't see how hard both of these things can be. But today I saw just how much it means to her to become a great scientist and Inventor, just like how much it means to me to become a great ruler and protector of this very kingdom. We both support each other and help each other out when things are difficult. I'm proud to call her sister."
Elena felt moved by Isabel's speech. The two sisters both looked at each other smiling like they finally understood each other. It felt like for the first time ever they were seeing eye to eye. Mateo then noticed the eyes of the idol was glowing and just then the room began to shake with everyone feeling it. Elena and Isabel both closed their eyes as the room shook. Just then the room stopped shaking and the idol's eyes stopped glowing. Elena opened her eyes and realized she was at the end of the table instead of being at the front of the table near the doorway. She looked around and realized she was in her own body again. Elena looked at Isabel, who had also realized that she was back in her own body. Isabel gave her a thumbs up and Elena did the same.
Elena asked if everyone was alright and once everything seemed fine, she said to enjoy their time at the banquet. She then headed towards Isabel and they both hugged each other, happy that they were both back in their own bodies. "I'm never going to do anything science ever again!" Elena said happily.
After seeing the two had swapped back, Mateo said he is going to lock the idol back in its box and leave a note so that anyone who finds it would know what it is and not open it. Francisco and Luisa came over to them and Fransico said to Elena that was a good speech. Luisa then asks Isabel how it went with the invention. "It went great. But I just need to wait a few days until I know if I got into the exposition." Elena and Isabel then head towards the table to eat. When the two were at the table, Mateo said to the grandparents "Are you guys gonna tell them that I told you two about them swapping bodies earlier?" "Maybe later." Fransico said.
