"Who else knows about the crown and the scepter?" Evie questioned as she talked with Mal and Lucy. Lucy missed the early meeting due to having to talk to Lumière.

"No one. People are scared as it is. We have to employ these entirely new security measures." Mal explained as Lucy paced the room.

"Will this delay bringing over more V.K.'s?" Evie questioned making Lucy stop pacing and look at Mal.

"We're talking about closing the barrier for good." Mal said making Lucy's eyes widen. Mal sent a Lucy a sad glance before turning back to Evie. Mal had found out about her secret relationship with Harry when they were in class and one the letters fell from her backpack.

"I need to go get Jane's present. I'll be back." Lucy said excusing herself from the room.

She was in shock. How was she supposed to write to Harry? How was she gonna figure out how to bring him over? She checked her watch and saw the time. She gasped before running towards her new bedroom in Evie's starter castle. She quickly changed and walked into the kitchen where she saw Carlos, Jay, and Evie packing some good.

"I really think she's gonna like cake- Oh no. Okay. Who got into Jane's cake?" Carlos shouted making Lucy look to Evie who shrugged. Jay laughed at the corner missing making Carlos shove him a bit.

The group heard commotion coming from outside which made them all run out the door where they were met with and evil looking Audrey and an extra old Mal.

"So long, suckers!" Audrey said before using her powers to leave.

"Oh!" Lucy exclaimed as she turned to Mal.

"Whoa! You might wanna think of a spell for that." Jay said making Lucy shove him a bit.

"There's no spell that can reverse the curse of the scepter." Mal explained very slowly.

"Well, that's a shame." Carlos said.

"Forget about. Audrey's out for revenge. And all of Auradon is in danger." Mal urged as Lucy nodded in understanding.

"What should we do?" Evie asked.

"The only thing more powerful than the scepter...is Hades ember." Mal said making Lucy sigh. Their was no way that Hades was gonna give them the ember.

"Like he's just gonna hand it over." Jay exclaimed.

"and no one knows where his lair is." Evie looked to the group.

"I do. I'm his errand rat. I've got the key at my dad's." Celia explained.

"You are coming." Mal pointed at her.

"But I just got here." Celia complained stepping back from the group.

"Mal?" The group turned to see Dizzy and the twins who screamed when they saw Mal.
