The volcano erupted violently as it spat out waves of lava and armies of magma. 

"Incoming!" Moana screamed to warn that a ball of burning magma was about to strike them and turn them into a roast chicken, pork chop, steamed hawk, and human meat. 

Maui quickly banked left to dodge the incoming burning magma. 

"Nice one, Maui!" Moana said as she let out a sigh of relief.

Maui screeched in panic.

"Don't panic!" Moana warned.

"Does it seem like I shouldn't panic?!" Maui was freaking out. "This is worse than Te Kā!"

"There will be better times just dodge all these magma!" Moana screamed as she watched all the magma being spewed out, and flood of lava covering the majority of the land.

"If you haven't known, volcano eruptions can last for hours! You expect me to fly away from all of these for hours?!" Maui screamed back.

"Well, get us out of here as far from possible!" Moana screamed. "Ahh!" She yelped as she looked below.

"What?! What?!" Maui responded.

"People down there! They need help!" Moana screamed. Then she realized this whole scenery was predicted by the painting inside the cave she was in. She was already too far away that she was not able to see how many people were already killed by the volcano. However, she was able to see someone at the base of the volcano, alive, standing tall...

...

.....

....... it was Nana.

She was standing tall and proud with her arms spread out as she faced the volcano. She was not able to hear her, but Nana was laughing maniacally. "HAHAHAA! THIS ISLAND WILL SOON BE MINE!" She said as the lava ran beneath her feet. She did not seem to get hurt at all. 

Moana's eyes widened as she saw the lave running down Nana's feet before the black cloud covered her. She also saw black clouds of volcanic ash that swallowed everyone running away from it, no matter how much they tried to run away as quickly as possible. Moana was so shocked that she couldn't even scream. She froze on top of Maui's back as her eyes lost focus.

"Moana! You need to tell me if the magma is falling down on us!" Maui screamed but his voice didn't go through Moana's ears.

Luckily, Pua squealed loud enough that Maui was able to dodge... just the part of it.

The burning lava and sturdy rock struck Maui's right wing. As he couldn't use his right wing properly, he tilted to his right and Moana fell right from it. Maui, noticed that Moana fell of his back, thrusted through the air to retrieve Moana. He noticed that her eyes lost focus. She's in shock, he thought as he read her eyes.

He was able to have Moana land back on his back again and quickly landed on their boat. He turned back into a human to quickly escape the clouds of volcanic ash. Since his right arm was injured, he was not able to do it as fast as he used to. However, he managed to get out of the radius of the dark clouds. 

When he felt that they were safe enough, he stopped and tried to wake Moana up. "Princess! Kid! Moana! Wake up!" Maui said as he shook Moana gently. Then he softly slapped her in a face. However, her focus did not come back. Then he splashed water on her face. 

"Huh?! Huh..." Moana's focus on her eyes came back. 

"You okay kid?" Maui asked.

"I guess so..." Moana said.
