━︎━︎━︎━︎𝐌𝐀𝐋, 𝐄𝐕𝐈𝐄, 𝐀𝐍𝐃 Ilaria made their way to the meeting spot. As they arrived, the limo was there patiently waiting with Jay, Carlos, and Lonnie. Ilaria raised her brows in surprise when she saw Lonnie. Mal let out a laugh of surprise. "Oh, Lonnie!"

     Lonnie ran towards them, giving Mal a hug. "I made them bring me."

     Mal pulled away. "Oh, I'm so glad." Lonnie gave Evie a hug and then moved to Ilaria who was surprised but hugged her back nonetheless.

     "Welcome to the Isle. It's good to see you." Evie said with a firm nod.

     Lonnie smiled. "Thanks."

     The four girls turned their head when Jay and Carlos opened the trunk. Jay pulled out a case of swords and Carlos let out a loud sigh. "I told you to stay!"

     "I flunked obedience class," Dude replied.

     "Great. And he can still talk." Jay muttered.

     Ilaria's eyes widened. "Dude can talk?!"

     Carlos looked at her. "It's a long story." He looked back at the dog. "You're lucky I love you." He got the dog out of the trunk and walked towards Mal with the fake wand in his hand.

     "Ooh. Let me see it." Mal said, motioning to it with her fingers. Carlos handed it over and Mal examined it. "Wow, what a beauty."

     "It's noon." Jay informed.

     Mal nodded. "Alright. Are we ready?"

     Evie held up the bag filled with smoke bombs. "Yeah."

     Mal gave a firm nod before glancing at all of them. "Let's do this." Ilaria took a deep breath and Evie grabbed her hand, giving it a reassuring squeeze  before they all walked into the pirate's den. They walked on to the wooden platform and Ilaria had to admit, she wasn't expecting so many people. Her eyes immediately spotted Uma with her blue hair standing on the pirate ship that was connected to the wooden dock.

     "Hey, guys!" Gil yells with a wide smile. "They're here!" The pirates all cheered as the group approached. Ilaria searched the area before she spotted Ben. His hands were tied behind his back and his ankles were tied with rope too to keep him from running.

     Harry Hook pushes Ben away from him, looking at the group and holding his arms out wide, a large crazy smile decorating his face. "Welcome!"

     "Finally!" Uma calls, a laugh leaving her lips. She and Mal had a stare off. "You know the deal." Uma hummed. "The wand for your precious king."

     Ilaria shook her head. "This is not a good idea."

     Evie, who was standing beside her, squeezed her shoulder. "Mal's got this."
