The boys take off to destroy different parts of the park. Getting some much needed catharsis out onto the park that trapped them here. Ernesto has also freed the guests that were trapped in the park as well, letting them help destroy the park with the boys. As you wind through the streets of the bazaar, Ace sticks close to you the whole time. Acting as if he's your personal bodyguard.

"Mya-hah! Take this! Ultra Grim Attack!" Grim unleashes a fireball, destroying a booth into smithereens.

"Nicely executed, Grim!" Ernesto complements.

"Stupid Playful Land, tryin' to turn ME into some dumb puppet... I ain't done breakin' you by a long shot! This wall's gotta go, too!" Grim destroys another portion of the park with his magic with a smirk. Then he stops, noticing something. "Hey, I see some light off in the distance over the water. Is that...?"

You look to the light Grim's talking about. When you gaze out if the hole in the wall, you see distant specks of light shimmering above the sea. Your eyes light up. "It's Sage Island!"

"You're right..." Ace smiles to you excitedly. "This is really happening, Y/N! We're goin' back to Night Raven!" He rubs the back of his neck. "But considering we'll have to face the teachers and my housewarden, maybe we shouldn't celebrate TOO much..."

Kalim places his hands to his hips with a bright smile. "Yeah, this is great news."

A loud explosion causes the ground to shake.

Trey glances to the direction it came from. "That explosion... Was that the pool hall?"

Jack lowers his ears. "It's not just that. There are explosions going off at the Brawlin' Bungalow, the Ferris Wheel, and all sorts of other places..."

Amidst the explosions, a great cracking sound can also be heard. You look down and see the floor is cracking.

Floyd grins. "Whoa, sweet. The floor's crackin'."

Jade nods, a smile ever present on his lips. "It certainly is. Is the ship sinking?"

"Wait, uh, isn't that bad?" Kalim exclaims.

"Oh, crud." Ace looks to the lights that seem so far away. "It can't sink now! We're still way far from land!"

Ernesto places a hand to his chin. "Oh, dear... We might've gone a wee bit overboard on the demolition."

Ace glares at the fox. "How are you so chill about this? Wait, does this ship have lifeboats and stuff?"

"Oh, that'd make sense." Cater looks to Ernesto hopefully. "This is a huge ship meant to carry a lot of people. They'd have to be equipped for a worst-case scenario, right?"

Ernesto laughs halfheartedly. "Please. Do you actually think Playful Land has any safety measures in place for its guests?"

Lilia folds his arms. "Not when you put it that way."

"Then why aren't you more concerned?" Jack points out. "We're taking on so much water, our shoes are getting soaked!"

Ernesto grins. "Why, because I have all of you here! You're smart little scholars, right? Put those educated noggins to use and whip up a solution real quick, would you?"

"Talk about passing the buck..." Ace groans as he rakes his hands through his hair. "I can't think of a single spell that could move this giant ship!"

Kalim bounces on his toes as he tries to come up with something. "What do we do...? Ooh, I know. We could all swim for it!"

Floyd raises his hand. "Ooh, I second that motion!"
