Elisa was surprised along with the others to find everyone in Auradon was asleep. Audrey had done some kind of sleeping spell that put everyone in Auradon to sleep. As they walked up to the academy, Elisa looked at everyone in sympathy and with determination. She would find a way to defeat Audrey and break the sleeping curse.

She pulls her phone out and texted Ben to try check in with him. She chews on her lip when he doesn't reply. "Ben's not responding." She mumbled, hoping he hasn't been hit with the sleeping curse either.

"We'll find him, I'm sure he's fine." Jay told her, placing a comforting hand on her shoulder. She sent him a thankful smile, though it didn't really reassure her.

"I can't get Dizzy or Doug." Evie spoke up.

"Or Jane." Carlos chimes in worriedly. "The signals out."

Celia's face lit up when she saw the academy she, Henry, and the other kids would go to. "Is that Auradon Prep?"

"Wow," Henry breathes out, eyes widening as he looks up at the castle-like building. "That's a school? It's huge!"

"It's pretty impressive, huh?" Elisa grinned. She was excited to show Henry and the others the school, and show them around. She was sure they would like the tour. Just not when they were saving Auradon.

"Yeah, for sure." Henry agreed.

"Yeah, when everybody wakes up, you're going to love it." Carlos said encouragingly. Celia fist bumped the air out of excitement while Henry looked down, biting back a grin. Elisa could tell he was trying to hide how excited he was, trying to act cool and composed, but the sparkle in his eyes gave him away. It made Elisa smile softly, despite the tension of the situation. "You guys will get the full tour later and you guys will have time to explore too."

"Can't wait." Henry admitted, his face breaking out into a smile as he looked at her and Elisa smiled back at him.

"Everything is so..." Gil started, looking around in awe and disbelief.

"Freaky." Jay mumbled, looking around in disbelief at everyone passed out in chairs or at tables.

"Green!" Gil finishes. "You have leaves on your trees. And w-what are those colored things on the bushes?"

Jay looks confused. "Uh, flowers?"

"Flowers are pretty." Gil grins, his face lighting up more when he spotted fruit in a bowl on a nearby table. "Cantaloupe!" He ignored Jay's protest as he took the bowl and ate the rest of it.

"We don't have any fresh fruit on the Isle, remember?" Uma called out. Elisa remembered. She remembered the first time she got sent to the Isle, how scared and shocked she had been. How betrayed she was for being banished to the Isle despite the fact it was Audrey's and Chad's fault for making her lose control.

Elisa remembered being shocked at how bad the Isle really was. She has heard stories and rumors, but nothing could prepare her for the real thing. The Isle was a dangerous place, full of poverty and crime, and the people were hardened by years of mistreatment and suffering. She could only imagine how the VKs must have felt when they arrived in Auradon, seeing the beautiful and vibrant kingdom for the first time. Being sent to the Isle made her even more thankful for what she had in Auradon and her home.
