Twisted Kingdom {From the I love him trilogy} (3 of 3)

6. What's my name?

Sierra's Pov

"Whoa. You got a little Hades thing going." Evie took notice of the electricity that shot through Mal's body
"Wow, I feel different," Mal pointed out as a blue flame lit her hand
"That thing packs a punch, huh?" Carlos asked poking Mal's arm
As I turned I spotted two bodies jump through the closing hole in the barrier
"We made it, bro." Harry and Gil celebrated and did a bro-hug thing.
"We made it." They turned to see our unamused faces looking back at them.
"Hey, guys. We're just coming for a wee visit." Harry said with a fake smile trying to get past Jay and Carlos but failing miserably
"Come on. Hey. Hey." Gil objected
"No!" Carlos and I spoke firmly simultaneously.
They pushed into Mal causing her to drop the ember into the water below, but just as it was about to touch the water a tentacle shot up and grabbed it.
"Drop something?" Uma spoke as she emerged from the ocean with her turquoise tentacles holding the little blue ember.
"It can't get wet." Mal warned with her palm extended, "Give it back before it goes out."
"Uma?" The two escaped villains asked in unison looking over the side of the bridge.
"That's my name," The girl replied with an evil smirk on her face.
"No!" Mal screamed as Uma went under the water still holding the ember.
"Hi, boys." We turned and saw Uma standing on the wooden bridge in her human form.
"Welcome back." Harry said with a bow
"Uma, you swam off and forgot all about us." Gil pointed out sounding as he had missed his captain.
"Yeah. Planning her revenge, no doubt." Mal spoke up as she rolled her eyes.
"It's not all about you, Mal. I was looking for a hole in the barrier to let everybody out. And you know what I found, boys?" Uma replied with her usual sass.
"It's way better out there than we thought. There's this thing that looks like a furry rock called a coconut.
And fish so big you could dance on their backs. And they've been keeping it all for themselves."
"Whatever. Uma, I need that to break a spell. Cast by Jane, the Fairy Godmother's daughter." Mal brushing her rant off trying to get to business.
"Mm. So the good guy is the bad guy?
Well, I might not give it back. Let's see what happens." Uma smirked looking to the shiny stone in her hand.
"Uma, it's not the time for games! People's lives are in danger!" Mal objected tired of the drawn out conversation.
"Guarantee me that every single villain kid who wants to, can get off the isle."
"I can't do that." Mal sighed
"Can't do that?" Uma shrugged, "Well, how about now?" She held the ember over the crashing ocean below.
"Deal. Deal." Mal finally agreed
"Uma! Her word is good." I spoke up trying to get her to stop dangling the ember over the ocean that would surely destroy it.
"I'll still keep this, for the time being.
Because if you think I trust you to save the world on your own, think again." Uma stated plainly putting the ember in her shirt pocket.
"This is a job for pirates!" Uma exclaimed turning to her two friends.
"Yeah." They both agreed loudly
"We can always go back to hating
each other when this is over."
"Fine."
"Where are our bikes?" Carlos spoke up from my side
"Oh, yeah. We crashed them." Harry replied with a chuckle
"Here's a thought. We could try to be friends. Put our history behind us
and celebrate our differences." Evie began, with her natural perkiness, "Yeah? Who wants gum?"
Everyone just stared at her in disbelief and nobody replied.
"Let's go." Uma ordered as she's usually captain of her crew but not this time.
"No. I'm in charge. Let's go." Mal cut her off and we started walking back to Auradon since we no longer had our bikes thanks to those dumb pirates.
