The Ghostwriter And The Lone Ranger 2: The Isle Strikes Back [Jay/OC]

Chapter 35: Always Find Your Way Back Home

This chapter was loosely inspired by Miley Cyrus's song 'Always Find Your Way' and acouple of other songs as well. In this chapter, Jones and Tracy will betravelling back to their hometown at Northern Wei for some much-needed familytime. 

Purpledolpin05: Ok, Mulan, could you do the disclaimer?

Mulan: Sure thing. Purpledolpin05 doesn't own Disney, Descendants or The Malaysian Dream's Original Characters. She only owns her Original Characters and parts of the story plot. Enjoy.

Songs recommended listening while reading the chapter: 'Always Find A Way Home' by Miley Cyrus, 'Breakaway' by Kelly Clarkson, 'Defying Gravity (Wicked)' Cover by Caleb Hyles (feat. Rebecca Parham) [Because this song feels like Jones and Tracy's POV for breaking away from everything else], She's So Gone by Naomi Scott (for Tracy), According To You by Orianthi (regarding Tracy's feelings for Eason and Jay)

[Tracy's P.O.V.]

"What brings you two to Northern Wei at this late hour?" a trainmaster asked us.

"We're just visiting home. It's been a while." Jones replied.

"Very well. Have a safe journey." The trainmaster inspected our tickets before letting us in.

Jones and I were standing by the railway tracks, as we waited for the train to Northern Wei to arrive. Not a lot of people are heading to the same direction as we are. Which is a good thing. I didn't want to get recognized by someone else.

The train is here.

"Good thing Ben gave us matching seats." I smiled a little, pointing at a two-seat place.

"Dibs on sitting by the window." My brother grinned, as he sat by the window.

"Fine by me. I'll sit by the outer lane." I shrugged, taking a seat next to him.

"Hey, I got us some food from the kitchen before we left campus." I told him, as I unpacked two containers of meatball porridge.

"Isn't that your signature meatball porridge?" Jones asked, taking a whiff.

"Yup. I got a little time to cook. Might taste a bit weird since I'm still recovering." I shrugged, massaging my arm muscles.

"Nah, I'm sure it'll taste good." Jones assured me before he started eating the porridge hungrily.

"When we get back, we definitely have to go for the roasted duck rice Old Mr. Tang sells!" Jones reminded me.

"Definitely, I missed his roasted duck rice as well." I chuckled, when we were younger, Grandpa and sometimes Uncle Mushu would bring us to Old Mr. Tang's roasted duck themed restaurant. Jones is especially fond of the roasted ducks, and the salty gravy. Jones would wobble up at least 2 plates of the roasted duck rice whenever we visit.

"I miss home. Yeah, I know life is good at Auradon and I can't exactly complain the idyllic life we have there. And compared to what we had been through on that bad place, I just needed some time for myself." I explained to him.

"Remember the time grandma made us herbal chicken soup, and I drank like 90 percent of it?" Jones tried to cheer me up.

"How could I not forget? You almost drank up everything that was meant for mom and dad for when they come back from their meeting with The Council of Wisemen." I nodded, hiding a laugh.

"Hey Jones, do you remember when we were younger, and watched the movie The Polar Express, we would used to imagine every train ride was heading off to the North Pole." I reminded him, before
