Chp 7: Devil's Due

Flashback: In the Neverland realm, a young Ursula was singing a song to the evil mermaids and became friends with them. Later, the God of the Seas, Poseidon, scolds his daughter, for hanging around evil mermaids and sirens, she reveals that the good mermaids and other sea creatures doesn't like her, then she swim away. At Poseidon's boneyard, Ursula weeps, then Hades appears asking what's wrong, she tells her uncle what happened. Then, Hades tells her how she could get anything she wants. The next day, at Atlantis, it was Ursula's birthday, in the morning  after she got dressed, Ursula began to walk down the aisle where she had her coronation. Poseidon took the book and said the oath, "Will you, Ursula, vow to watch over all the seas of every realm? To guard them with your life, their peace, their sea creatures, and their health. For they are that we have, that connects to our magic." Ursula smiled and looked at her uncle. "I will" She says. Then, you now have the status of goddess." Poseidon said, Everyone cheers. They had a ball afterwards, Ursula sings a song to the crowd. That night, Poseidon catches her teaching the evil mermaids how to summon seastorms, and turning them into humans. 22 years later, a now adult Ursula lost her status of goddess when she defied her father. She did not approve her father's hate against humans, so she started turning mermaids into landwalkers Just to spite his authority. Also the evil mermaids work for Ursula as her minions, Poseidon took her ability to sing by using a powerful seashell. That night, the split between father and daughter continues, a enraged Ursula was pushed to take Poseidon's trident herself under Hades' influence, to snap and use the trident to transform herself into the powerful Sea Goddess for which Ursula is now half Octopus, only stronger and more powerful than her father. The rumors begin to say that Ursula is known as the Sea Goddess. End of flashback

Present day Underworld, Liam wakes up from a nightmare. In the dream, Renee, Dorothy and himself are in the Underworld Graveyard attempting to use Renee's light magic to erase their names from the tombstones Hades had created. Renee sense something is wrong and a tornado appears. The three seek shelter behind a large crypt and Dorothy senses there is a large creature nearby. Renee attempts to face the creature and is taken away and presumably killed which wakes Liam. Liam tells Renee about the dream wondering if they are visions of the future. In the morning, Rumple finds a shell in the Emporium and uses the conch shell to summon Ursula, Liam outlines some of the details of the dream believing that Renee can erase their names from the tombstones so everyone can leave the underworld. Hades is standing at the butcher shop to see Nyx when he notices a daisy growing in the broken road. A portal opens and Ursula comes out, who knows more about Hades rather than the others. Elsewhere at the underworld cemetery, Renee attempts to cast the spell from Liam's dream, but suddenly starts believing Liam's  nightmare is coming true when the same storm appears. She, Liam and Dorothy head to the vault, where Dorothy tell Renee not to give up, Dorothy tells Liam that love is worth it. Moments after Hades picked up the flower, which have suddenly started growing in the Underworld because the outsiders have bought hope and faith, Hades went to the Kingdom Of Souls, to visit a prisoner, Facilier, making voodoo dolls. Then, Facilier took a blessing from Hades' lair and he then uses it to create a spell on a voodoo doll and tethering Hades to it. At Roni's, Liam, Renee and Dorothy met back with Edward, Grace, Zelena and Rumple to meet Ursula there. At Hades' lair, he is waiting for Nyx for their third date, which Nyx sees as an opportunity to get him to bring Fufu back to the land of the living.
