The group followed Lucy as she pointed to the house. The group hid behind a tree and some bushes as the girl furrow her brows. She watched them all follow Ben as she shook her head in disbelief. She looked up and saw them all speed walking to the cottage. She tried to stop them but was cut off by Harry grabbing her hand and dragging her towards the house. She kneeled next to Harry as she watched Mal and Ben go towards the door. She tried to get their attention but Harry put her hands down and trying to keep her quiet.

"She's not upstairs." Jay said as he ran down the stairs.

"She's not here." Lucy said in frustration as the group turned to her

"And you didn't think to tell us?" Carlos remarked making the girl roll her eyes.

"I tried to tell you but this idiot wouldn't let me." She said pointing to Harry who shrugged his shoulders. Before Harry had a chance to defend himself they heard a knock coming from the closest door.

Lucy moved closer to the door with Ben. Ben looked to Lucy who nodded for him to open it. She knew exactly who was in the closet. Ben opened the door and they were met with Chad.

"Chad?" Ben said as the poor boy looked up with distraught covering his face.

"I want my mommy." Ben tried to help the boy up only for him to scream.

"It's okay." Ben said helping the obviously traumatized blond.

"What happened, buddy?" Lucy asked. Chad looked around the room before looking to Lucy and Ben.

"Ben? Lucy? Ben! Lucy!" Chad grabbed the two by their collars. Harry quickly stepped forward protectively.

"She's gone? Huh? The door is open. I'm free. Freedom!" Chad ran out the door very quickly making everyone stand confused.

Harry couldn't help but laugh making Lucy giggle as well. The two quietly laughed as they walked out the house behidn the rest of the group.

"Ooh. All right. Let's get this Audrey chick taken care of already. What do you say, girls? Time to wrap things up?" Uma said as the group walked together. Harry and Lucy walked hand in hand messing around with each other.

"You know, someday, you're gonna have to tell me how you guys all got teamed up." Ben said wrapping an arm around Mal.

"Actually, Mal promised to let all the kids off the Isle once this is over." Evie said making Lucy smile and wrap her arms around Harry's waist.

"I have to tell you you guys something. Um...I lied to you." Lucy let go of Harry and furrowed her brows. "The kids won't be coming off the Isle."

"What do you mean?" Lucy asked stepping forward. When did they discuss this? Why did she not know about this?

"The program is shut down. And the barrier...will be closed for good for Auradon's safety." Lucy's face dropped as she looked at Harry who looked angry and betrayed. She grabbed his free hand and he held it.
