"There's no way we're gonna give Uma the wand." Mal stared at her blankly, dangerous anger lying underneath her bored expression. "We can just let her destroy Auradon."

     "Uma doesn't get the wand, then Ben is toast, guys." Carlos muttered.

     "Great, so we're gonna give Uma, of all people, the wand." Carlos, Evie, and Jay began talking over each other. Mal interrupted them.

     "Wait, you guys." They turned their heads to look at her. "Your 3D printer."

     Carlos pointed at her, quickly catching on. "A phony wand."

     "Yes."

      "In my sleep." Carlos smiled.

     "Yeah, but the second Uma tests it, she'll know it's fake." Evie argued.

     "Okay, so then we get Ben out really fast." Mal shrugged. "We need some kind of diversion."

     "Smoke bombs!" Jay suggested.

     Mal pointed at him as Evie placed her hands on his shoulders. "That's perfect. I'll get the chemicals I need from Lady Tremaine's place. That could work." Evie walked over to Mal. "Oh, and sick hair by the way. Evil Stepmom seriously stepped up her game."

     "Oh, hey, you wanna know something?" Mal asked. "Dizzy did this."

     Evie gasped. "Little Dizzy? Shut up."

     "I know! I'm like loving it. It's like a lot lighter." Mal combed her hands through her hair.

     "I'm really proud of her."

     Jay loudly cleared his throat while Carlos called out, "Hello?" The two girls paused and looked at them.

     Mal clapped her hands together. "Right. Carlos, Jay, you guys meet us at Pirate's Bay, no later than noon. And you guys, losing, not an option. 'Cause we're rotten."

     "To the core." Evie, Carlos, and Jay finished.

     Mal pointed at Ilaria. "Ria, you can come with Evie and I or stay here, it's up to you."

     "I think I'll stay here." Ilaria mumbled out.

     Evie frowned. "What? No, come on. You have to meet Dizzy. She would love you." She looked at the others, silently nodding her head for them to leave. The three walked out and Evie walked up to Ilaria, holding out her hands. Ilaria stared at her for a moment before uncrossing her arms, letting Evie take Ilaria's hands into her own. "I know you're upset with me, and you have a right to be. But I am sorry. For all of this. I'll make it up to you."
