Now at the 'Wonder diner', Elena and Olivia entered to see Brooke sitting at a table reading a book.

"Come on" Elena said as they went up to Brooke "Brooke, how you feeling?"

"I don't know" Brooke sighed.

"Look, we're really sorry about letting Wendell out, it's just we thought there was something about the Author in that book since it was titled 'the Author', and we really wanted to know about him."

"No, it's my fault, if I hadn't had told you about the Author in the first place then this wouldn't of happened, and I'm sorry for yelling at you guys, it's just Wendell and I had a very painful history together."

"Can you tell us about it?" Olivia asked as they sat in front of her.

"Well" Brooke sighed "If you must know, I met Wendell when I first came into the real world before the Evil Queen's curse, he was the first friend I made, but I thought we would become more than that especially since he was my first kiss."

"He was your first kiss?" they said surprised.

"I know" she agreed with a dull look "Anyway, I really liked him and I thought he liked me, that is until I learned the truth about him and that he's been lying to me, turns out he was just using me to he can be free from his mother."

"Free from his mother?" Elena said.

"His mother locked him away because he killed his 3 fathers."

At that point Elena and Olivia gasped with shock.

"Yeah" Brooke sighed "Turns out he just wanted my magic quill that he used to kill his mother and give himself some magic. When I confronted, he told me about his little plan of using me, betraying me, that was the first heart break I had from a guy."

"Oh" Olivia said sadly "I'm sorry."

"Don't be. I thought I was in love with him, boy was I wrong."

"Then what happened?" Elena asked.

"Well, in order to weaken him, I took something away from him, something that he loved and is now after me because of it."

"What did you take?"

"Here" Brooke reached into her purse and handed them a folded up piece of paper "I think you should read it yourself."

So Elena unfolded the paper as she and Olivia read the note as they gave small gasps.

"Wait how did you take that away?" Olivia asked.

"With a magic quill that Merlin gave me."

"Merlin?" Elena said surprised "As in the Merlin?"

"Yep, he gave me this magic quill and ink so that anything I write with it will come true."

"Wow" Elena said amused "Where is it now?"

"I still have the quill, but all the ink's gone because I kinda spilled it and it's hard to get new ink now since it came from the Kraken."

"Whoa" Olivia's eyes widen.

"And no one can get more ink from the Kraken, well unless you're a mermaid or something."

"So what are you gonna do about Wendell now?" Elena asked.

"I don't know" Brooke shrugged "I mean I did find something in this book that could help."

She flipped the book over to show them a picture of a magical looking box with a red gem on top.

"This is called Pandora's Box" Brooke said "It had the ability to trap any magical being inside it, and if I can get my hands on this box, I might be able to use it to trap Wendell inside since he's basically a magical being now

"This is called Pandora's Box" Brooke said "It had the ability to trap any magical being inside it, and if I can get my hands on this box, I might be able to use it to trap Wendell inside since he's basically a magical being now. But the thing is, this box had been missing for thousands of years, no one knows if it's still in the Greek world or somewhere else."

"Oh" Elena said sadly.

"And since we don't have it, then I don't think there's any other way to stop Wendell, that book was the only prison that was able to trap him, and now it's gone."

"Well, I'm sure there's another way, we just have to keep looking."

"Actually I'll keep looking, you two should probably go to find Bella and Brutta."

"You sure?"

"Yeah, I mean I know more about Wendell, and this is my problem, and I'm gonna fix it. You two go ahead and look for Bella and Brutta."

"Well, okay then, are you sure you don't want us to help?"

"I'm sure, I mean his magic is not as powerful as yours, so I'm sure I can handle him."

"Well alright then, be careful."


(Greek world) Out at sea on a stormy night, a ship was being pushed against the waves as lighting and thunder filled the sky and massive amounts of rain poured down on the unlucky sailors as they tried to battle the storm. Some of the sailors tried to fix the sails, but one of the sails had broke was was already falling apart.

"It's no use!" one of them shouted "If we can't beat this storm we'll have to abandon ship!"

Just then some more men came out from the cellar.

"There's a hole in the cellar!" one them yelled "It's flooding up, we can't fix it!"

"Then we're gonna have to abandon ship!" the first sailor ordered "Psyche where are you?!"

"I'm here!" the only lady on ship appeared with something in her hands "I just needed to find this!"

She showed them in her hands was Pandora's Box.

"If I survive I'm still not giving up!" she declared.

"Wave!" someone screamed as they turned and was shocked to see a monster size waved raising above them.

"Abandon ship!" the sailor screamed as the wave plunged down on them, shattering the ship into pieces as it sank to the bottom.

The next morning after the storm had cleared up, the sun was out and as the sea was calm again, but the pieces of the ship were now scattered across the waters and everyone aboard was now gone. But at the bottom of the sea, Pandora's Box was now wedged into the sand, until a hand reached out and pulled it out. The hand that belonged to a girl with flowing coral pink hair examined the box before swimming away with her light blue fish tail pushing against the water. Now that she had a new item, the mermaid couldn't wait to see what it did.
