They arrive at the docks. Uma is surrounded by her fellow pirates. Harry has Ben at the edge of the plank his hook held loosely around his neck. Ben's arms and legs are tied.
"Hello Mal" Uma smiles
"Hello Uma" Mal says her mouth in a tight line
"Victoria" Uma slightly nods her head "I hear you're a queen now"
"I just took back what was mine" Victoria says giving her a small head nod
"That's why I like you" Uma smiles. She hasn't changed at all, her hair's longer but it still has those blue and green streaks. Her outfit is as colorful as her hair and in the same colores. Her hair moves slightly as if she were underwater or as if they were tentacles.
"Give us Ben Uma" Mal demands
"Not so fast" Uma smiles "give me the wand"
"Give me the king Uma" Mal repeats "or this will get ugly"
"Don't threaten me" Uma growls but she's still smiling "if you so much as step forward Harry here will make sure you never get your boyfriend back"
"I just need one small excuse" Harry smiles and drags his hook gently across his neck "one small step and I'll debilitate him" he drags his hook across his stomach and places his sword on his Achilles' tendon "he'll never walk again if you so much as breathe wrong"
"Stand down Harry" Uma orders "don't touch him...yet"
"Uma" Victoria says slowly "please don't do this. Just give us Ben and no one has to get hurt"
"Give me the wand and I'll give you Ben" Uma says "it's simple really" Mal holds her hand and Carlos places the wand in her hand
"Mal don't do it" Ben says and swallows hard when Harry digs his hook into his neck "we can come to an understanding. Uma let me go and we can work together. We can make the isle a better place. You can come to Auradon. Just please, don't do this"
"Now you're being nice?" Uma scoffs "because your life is on the line? I don't think so little king" she spits at his feet "you didn't give a damn about us for years why should I believe you care about us now? No, I'll get out of here by my own hand. I don't need you"
"I'm sorry" Ben says "I couldn't do anything until I was king and once I was king I had so much work I... I know that's a poor excuse"
"It is" Uma says "the wand Mal"
"Ben shut up" Victoria hisses at him
"Everything's gonna be fine" Mal says Uma steps forward and Mal puts the wand behind her back
"Bring Ben here" Evie says, Uma nods and Harry drags Ben over
"How do I know if the wand is authentic?" Uma questions, Mal scowls
"You don't trust me?" Mal asks
"I don't trust you as far as I can throw you" Uma raises her eyebrow
"That's fair" Mal grumbles under her breath. She turns around and spots Dude who Victoria has no idea what he's doing there
"I give you the power of speech!" Mal claims and waves the wand. Victoria confused activates some lights and smoke. They all stare at the dog
"Speak dog" Mal orders
"Oh I had to speak?" Dude asks making Victoria gasps
"He talked!" Victoria exclaims and it truly looks authentic so Uma snatches the wand out of Mal's hand. Mal grabs Ben's arm and shoves him behind her as she starts to step back.
"Mal you don't know what you've just done" Ben hisses but Mal ignores him and keeps pushing him back. Uma laughs wildly and twirls the wand in the air
"Now get rid of this pesky barrier!" She cries Victoria activates more smoke and fancy lights as they all slowly back away. Uma smiles in triumph, but nothing has changed. She has no powers. She growls and takes a closer look at the wand, and breaks it in half. It dissolves in her hands
"No!" She cries "get them!" She orders to her crew and they all draw their swords, Victoria and the others draw their swords as well and prepare for the fight.
"Kill them!" Uma commands and they charge.
