Uma

"Did you miss us?" I smiled to myself as Evie ran to fight Melody who was surprised, Jay went to help Mal and Carlos helped me up.

"Uma, are you okay?" he asked sincerely as I smiled at him,

"Not sure, it really hurts and I lost a lot of blood already."

He started applying pressure to my wound,

"Harry, attack her!" yelled Melody as Harry who had been unmoving started to approach us, his eyes looked lifeless as he drew his sword.

"Hi dog." He waved as he began to attack Carlos who for the most part dodged his advances,

Mal

I stared at Ben as he continued choking me, Jay was trying to pry him off but his beastly strength wouldn't budge us.

"Ben.." I whispered as I cupped his face,

"My sweet, sweet prince. Come back to me." I whispered once again as he slammed my head against the wall.

"Let her go Ben!" yelled Jay as he kicked Ben in the stomach which momentarily distracted him. Jay then stomped Ben in the back which caused him to face plant.

But he was relentless under Melody's spell, he got back up and charged at us. I ended up pushing Jay out of the way and taking the blunt force trauma,

"Ben.." I whispered once more as I thought back to something my mom had told me never to do as a child.

She told me true love's kiss doesn't work and that it's a fraud, if the two parties truly love each other it will work. But if not then it would be a waste.

She used to tell me it was a cure for the highest plausible spell,

I slowly moved my hands to cup his face, I kissed him and it was a passionate kiss.

At first, he didn't return it. But after a while he returned it just as much as I ensured it.

It was a slow, yet meaningful kiss. We pulled apart from each other as he stared at me and then looked down at my neck.

It was filled with angry bruises pooling into one,

"Did I?" he asked as I slowly nodded, he bit back a sob as he hugged me.

I wasn't mad, it wasn't his fault, he didn't know.

"It's okay, Ben." I whispered in his ear as he hugged me tighter,

"No. It's not, I'm so sorry..Mal. I had no control of my emotions, it's like I went beast mode." He explained as I rubbed his head soothingly, he sniffled into my shoulder.

"I didn't mean to, I'm so sorry. It was like my mind was in a haze, I'm so sorry." He kept repeating as I continue to hug him and comfort him,

"I love you." I smiled as he said it back, I pushed our foreheads against each other,

"We need to go help Uma, Mal." stated Jay as I pulled away from Ben and helped him up as I momentarily forgot that Evie was struggling against Melody and Carlos couldn't hold off Harry.

Uma

"Watch out!" I screamed as everyone froze even Melody, Carlos was about to be stabbed in the rib cage by Harry.
