The days in the Merlin academy were going slowly by slowly in agonising manner. It was a hard job to avoid him, to try to block him out of her mind.

Every time they've met their ways he always desperately wanted to talk to her but Bridget refused, clearly not ready even to listen another lie - her heart still picked the pieces who weren't healed at all.

James couldn't stand this, he just couldn't see her like this hell around another princes - it was a torture for the pirate, a horrible torture caused by Uliana who wouldn't expect the sudden knife in the back.

James had planned his revenge perfectly. All her dark secrets were in his sleeves, ready to be shared with the world perhaps with the principal - he knew it was cruel, heartless even to betray someone who he used to call a friend but let's be a realistic here...Love makes us to do weird things and besides Uliana would throw any of them under the bus so it wasn't that different at all.

She had crossed the lines, she had ruined the only thing it brought him a happiness and he would make sure she pays even if it costs the anger of the principal perhaps even expelling - someone needed to put her in her place after all.

There was another boring, dull day for James who stood in distance and kept careful eyes on Uliana who laughed like a maniac when she bullied another princess for fun and to boost her ego, Morgie only laughed awkwardly and rubbed his neck.

This girl got worst all because she wanted to be just like her sister - sure she also had her own family issues, but it didn't excuse her from what she had done to Bridget.

His eyes noticed her when she walked past with small pile of books, her soft beautiful pink hair tied in a ponytail and moving around gracefully. He longed for her, he wanted to walk after her - to fix the things, hell to beg her on his knees.

But she made it clear that she wasn't ready to forgive or forget and besides he had a witch to deal with and make sure she pays.

Now that motivated him even more - take revenge on Uliana and then win Bridget back at any cost, he wouldn't survive it without her. She took him out of his misery, the darkness hell the life he was forced to live and made him to feel love, goodness and new change until all got crushed at the castlecoming.

James took a heavy deep breath, thinking twice and twice until he finally made the decision and got going with his plan.

The pirate moved down the empty quiet hallways while the others were outside at the courtyard for a break from the exhausted classes, that gave him heavy opportunity to sneak in the principal Merlin's office and to leave what he had in his hand.

There he was, standing in front of these doors where he always entered with headmaster when he had caused chaos until Bridget got in his life and helped him to control himself.

These memories were bittersweet but now he had to focus on his goal and that was Uliana to pay at any cost even if they will have to expelling her.

His hook start to lift the locks carefully, for his luck it worked and carefully pushed the door open - James took a sigh and then stepped in the office and then glanced at the item in his hands.

It was the same magical ball who Uliana used to show a flashback about the plan but now it would be used to show what kind of cruel villain was Uliana. Luckily Mal had helped him with working on this thing since he really didn't have magical powers like the two of them.

It would show everything what Uliana did so when the principal would return back at the office, the ball will activate magically and show every single dark secret of hers, the cruel bullying she had done to the royalty students.

James had to sit in the corner and watch how she gets what she deserves, it will give him a heavy pleasure when she faces her punishment.

The pirate didn't waste time and quickly walked out of the office before anyone could see him and closed the door then headed back towards his dormitory to take a deep breath and to still work on something that he would speak at the graduation who was coming sooner and sooner and he wanted to fix the things with Bridget right there, right in front the people to see that he had changed and that he would do anything so Bridget and him to be together.

It passed almost a hour or two after the first step of his plan. He waited impatiently for the next one while being at class and didn't focus on it, instead he hoped that it will go as how it planned. And for his luck it did.

His ears perked up when the principal Merlin walked inside with a bit of tensed expression - his eyes glued on Uliana who quickly stopped to mock a random nerd and look at the principal with smug expression who faltered when the principal said his stern speech and expelled her in front of everyone.

"What?! You are expelling me over some dumb bullying and other things?! Are you serious?!"

Uliana yelled with shock on her face and stood up from her seat, even Morgie was shocked that Uliana got expelled - the only who didn't show any shock or emotion was James who watched the scene to unfold in front of his eyes.

Uliana could feel his eyes on her and quickly turned around with a glare directed to James and pointed at him with anger, hatred and malice.

"You did it, didn't you?! You traitor!!!!"

Uliana was ready to jump on James until he spoke up with a cold tone and looked at his book, his eyes showing nothing not even a sympathy to her - she deserved it.

"I didn't do a thing, don't blame someone for your own actions. You brought it to yourself and now you are doing some bullshit drama of yours...besides that's what is called justice, dear Uli."

Uliana's jaw dropped. She knew it was him, but she couldn't prove it yet she knew why he had done it. A revenge for that she ruined something real between him and Bridget and now she is receiving what she deserves.

Uliana didn't even have the chance to shout at him even to hit him with her tentacles, she was dragged out of the lecture hall for the wrist while she threw insults on James who didn't even spare her a glance or even to be affected.

Now Uliana was out of the picture, his hook served justice and now his new determination was only one.

Fix the things with Bridget.
