The Aftermath

Chapter 1: Midnight Sky

This is my first Descendants fanfiction that I’m going to post on here so please bear with me. It is a Harry Hook x Uma fic. If you like my writing (can’t imagine it but in case that someone actually does) : I do take requests. Just send me an idea or prompt. Anyway, here we go.

I do not own any of these characters.

Harry hated seeing Uma upset. All their lives he had gone to any cost to avoid it. He had threatened those who dared to call her Shrimpy. He had taken care of those who had attacked Uma. She beat them all ofcourse, but Harry made sure one of their personal items was missing when they arrived at their home. If you could call it a home. Soon enough everyone on the isle knew better than to mess with Uma. She would mess you up and after that Harry would come for you. This way Harry had avoided Uma getting upset for years.

But this time, it wasn’t enough. Uma strictly told him he couldn’t come with her, so he watched the Cotillion very closely. He swore to take revenge on everyone who hurt his precious Uma. He saw her giving back the ring and he saw her sink beneath the waves. He observed the determination in her eyes and the way it slowly died. He watched as she realised the barier wasn’t coming down and Ben was never going to give her whole crew a pardon. She did the wise thing and retreated and everyone on the boat was startled.

Meanwhile, in Ursula’s restaurant everyone was arguing. Some people were actually fighting. The Wharf Rats were devending their captain’s honour and the commoners were angry because another escape plan failed. Harry felt his anger boil. When he heard someone say “She never wanted to get us of the Isle! She just wanted a date with the King!” he flipped. How dare they insult his Sea Queen! Harry slowly raised from his seat facing the television and turned towards the crowd. The tumult quickly died down and soon it was so silent some swear they heared Harry’s agitated breathing. Harry spoke as soon as everyone seemed scared properly.
“Uma has chosen wisely, you fools! This was all a plan! She waited till the right moment and than acted like she retreated!” Harry knew that it wasn’t true, but the people seemed to believe him. They weren’t the smartest and were never given a proper education. He couldn’t blame them. “Beastie-Boy now thinks we gave up. Uma will return, wait for a bit and then break the barrier. The people of Auradon have no idea of what’s coming for them!” Luckily the crew seemed to catch on and started nodding and acting like this was the plan all along. Everyone believed them. Harry threw everyone out of the restaurant and directed the Wharf Rats anywhere but the boat. When the Isle fell asleep Harry started searching for his love.

When he arrived at the beach the stars shone so bright that the night sky seemed dark blue. After stomping around for a while and finding nothing Harry stopped and looked at the sky. A beautiful sky was something they rarely saw on the Isle. Uma loved them. Nights likes these were spent by stargazing. Harry would gladly join her. Normally all you could see was the big grey cloud covering the sky and the sun. It made their doomed island prison even worse to live on. When they were twelve, Gil had seen a sunset. He had been happy for two whole weeks. Thinking of Gil’s innocence motived Harry to start looking for his lost love again. She was his anchor, keeping hem sane and keeping him from ruining Gil’s innocence by telling Gil they might never get off this hell hole of a island. After three minutes of walking (read stomping and kicking at stones) Harry decided it was time for a different approach. He went silent and listened. He walked for a bit before he suddenly heard the sound of stones hitting the water. He followed his newfound trail. It let him to a heartbreaking sound. He saw Uma, in her princess dress which was ripped apart, sitting on a rock in the surf of the sea. The waves were nibbling with her toes and the wind played with her hair which had broken loose from its bun. It would have been a beautiful image if it wasn’t for her shivering and the soul shattering sobs. Harry walked towards her while taking of his jacket in the process. When he reached Uma he swiftly hang it around her shoulders. Uma turned around ready to attack but stopped when she saw Harry. Harry spoke up.
“Now darlin’, there is no need to attack me. I need ye to calm down, ‘k love?”
Uma blinked and said: “ —–
