The VK's and Harry walked back to the streets to see the pirates fighting the Islers. Mad Maddy ran up to them.
"Do something!"
"What do you want us to do? We're losers, remember?" Jay looked down.
"Please." Maddy grabbed Mal's arms.
"We can't. Sorry, Mads." Mal sighed.
"You and Harry can stop this, though." Evie smiled.
"How?" Maddy asked.
"You and Harry love each other." Carlos made them hold hands. "Show everyone that we don't have to fight." Without saying a word, the couple walked into the middle of the fight. Everyone stopped fighting and looked at them.
"Maddy, what are you doing, girl?" Gaston Jr asked her.
"This fighting has to stop. We can be so much more than just enemies. So what if they're pirates, so what if we're just Islers, we need to stop this now." Maddy looked at Ginny and Claudine.
"Girl, you're insane." Ginny put on hand on her hip.
"Ginny, please don't say you're going to leave me over pirates. You're my best friend." Maddy stood back to back with Harry. Harry laced his fingers with hers.
"You can't do this to us, Harry." Uma looked at him in anger.
"Uma, yoo're mah closest mukker. Ur ye pure gonnae lae me coz ah loove maddy Uma, you're my closest friend. Are you really going to leave me because I love Maddy?" Harry tightened his grip onto Maddy's hands.
"Yes! We all are!" Gil shouted.
"Claudine? Gastons?" Maddy looked at Claudine, Gaston Jr Gaston the Third.
"Sorry, girl." Claudine looked away.
"You're stupid." Gaston Jr crossed his arms over his chest.
"You're dumber than Gil." Gaston the Third shifted his weight onto his left foot.
"CJ? Harriet?" Harry looked at his sisters who gave him the middle finger.
"We all have different dreams. Why should we be set apart because of them?" Carlos stood with the couple.
"What difference do you see between us?" Evie grabbed Carlos's arm.
"There is nothing to fight about." Jay held hands with Mal. "We can all fall in love with whoever our hearts choose." He looked at Mal and smiled.
"We wouldn't be able to see our differences when we were younger. We are all one." Mal walked up to the others with her hand in Jay's.
"We are equal like blacks and whites." Maddy saw the 8 year old her smiling at her.
"We shoods be able tae see whit we saw as kids we should be able to see what we saw as kids." Harry looked at Uma to see the 8 year old him. They smiled at each other. Young Harry started singing and everyone started at him.
"I close my eyes and I can see. The world that's waiting up for me. That I call my own. Through the dark, through the door. Through where no one's been before. But it feels like home. They can say, they can say it all sounds crazy. They can say, they can say I've lost my mind. I don't care, I don't care, so call me crazy. We can live in a world that we design."
Young Maddy started dancing with the younger versions of Ginny, Claudine and the Gastons. "'Cause every night I lie in bed. The brightest colors fill my head. A million dreams are keeping me awake. I think of what the world could be. A vision of the one I see. A million dreams is all it's gonna take. A million dreams for the world we're gonna make."
"There's a house we can build. Every room inside is filled. With things from far away. The special things I compile. Each one there to make you smile. On a rainy day." Young Harry danced with young Maddy. "They can say, they can say it all sounds crazy. They can say, they can say we've lost our minds. I don't care, I don't care if they call us crazy. Runaway to a world that we design."
Harry ballet danced with Maddy. "Every night I lie in bed. The brightest colors fill my head. A million dreams are keeping me awake. I think of what the world could be. A vision of the one I see. A million dreams is all it's gonna take. A million dreams for the world we're gonna make."
Maddy smiled. "However big, however small. Let me be part of it all. Share your dreams with me. You may be right, you may be wrong. But say that you'll bring me along. To the world you see."
"To the world I close my eyes to see. I close my eyes to see." The two wowed the crowd.
"Every night I lie in bed. The brightest colors fill my head." Harry twirled Maddy around.
"A million dreams are keeping me awake." Maddy led him into a leap.
"A million dreams, a million dreams." Harry lifted her into the air.
"I think of what the world could be. A vision of the one I see. A million dreams is all it's gonna take. A million dreams for the world we're gonna make. For the world we're gonna make." The two stopped dancing and the younger versions disappeared.
"See? We're better when we harmonise." Mal felt like crying.
"Maybe this will help them understand." Maddy gave Harry a rope. "Jolly Roger."
"That's mine!" CJ shouted.
"I'm borrowing it." Maddy smirked.
"Ye thooght aheid ay me you thought ahead of me." Harry hugged her. The couple led everyone to the Jolly Roger. Harry and Maddy hooked (pun not intended) the ropes to anything and everything they could.
"Harry, what are you doing?" Jay wrapped an arm around Mal's waist.
"You'll see." Harry smirked at him.
"You know Dad is going to kill you, right?" CJ crossed her arms over her chest.
"Ah spent a decade practisin' trapeze withit gettin' caught I spent a decade practising trapeze without getting caught." Harry smirked at her. "If he diz catch me, ah hae friends an' a bidey-in by mah sides if he does catch me, I have friends and a lover by my sides."
"Let's do this." Maddy grabbed a rope.
