CHAPTER 40

"That was a really good idea, to check Audrey's room. Now, we know that we're on the right track," Gabby tells Uma as she walks over to Uma and Celia, who are eating cake.

"Is there an insult in there that I missed?" Uma asks as she faces Gabby.

"Just... I wanted to thank you," Gabby tells Uma with a smile.

"I don't know whose birthday it is, but I want this cake," Uma says as she and Gabby sit across from each other, eating Jane's cake.

"So, Mal and I maybe kind of missed the boat a little bit on calling you Shrimpy and not letting you join the gang," Gabby explains to Uma.

"Yeah. We really could've torn up the Isle together," Uma says with a smile. Gabby uses her finger to get some icing before eating it causing Uma to giggle. Boards then start covering all of the windows and doors.

"Celia!" Uma calls as Gabby and Uma stand up and hold onto each other.

"We're trapped!" Celia calls before running over to them.

"Are you guys okay? What's going on?" Evie asks as she, Mal, and Doug run into the room.

"You've caused my friends pain and fear. We've had enough, now disappear!" Gabby chants as her eyes turn red but nothing happens. "You guys, I'm sorry. My spells aren't working. Audrey's magic is getting stronger." Uma grabs Gabby's arm as her necklace starts glowing.

"You've caused our friends pain and fear we've had enough, now disappear," Uma, Mal, and Gabby chant together as they hold hands. All of the boards fall off of the windows and doors.

"You did it!" Celia cheers.

"Together! This is what Mal and I've been talking about," Evie adds.

"I guess my shell likes you," Uma says causing Gabby to laugh. Uma then pulls the ember out of her necklace. "Why don't you hold on to that?" Uma hands the ember to Mal before Uma and Gabby fist bump. Celia then runs over to the door and looks out.

"Hey, it's your bae," Celia tells Gabby as she turns around causing Gabby to gasp and run for the door.

"Ben!" Gabby calls causing Ben to quickly hug her.

"Are you okay?" Ben asks her.

"Yeah. I'm so much better right now. Are you okay?" Gabby asks as she steps back and actually takes him in.

"Yeah," Ben answers her before turning to Uma, who is hugging Harry and Gil. "I always knew you'd be part of the solution."

"What is this?" Gabby asks as she messes with Ben's beard.

"Oh, yeah," Ben says as he shows it off.

"I could get used to this," Gabby says with a smile. It made him even more handsome.

"You like it?" Ben asks her.

"I love this," Gabby answers him.

"What about those?" Uma asks as she walks over and motions about his fangs.

"No," Gabby says as Ben smiles.

"I like them," Ben tells her causing Gabby to smile and roll her eyes. She really loved Ben, no matter how he looked.

"Okay, so, we all think that Audrey could be at Fairy Cottage. We have no idea where it is. Did she ever take you there?" Gabby explains to Ben.

"Every Fairy Godmother's Day," Ben answers her before turning to Jane. "Where is Fairy Godmother when you need her?"

"I wish I knew," Jane answers him.

"Doug! Go with Jane. We need to find Fairy Godmother," Ben orders.

"They might need some muscle," Uma tells Ben as she walks over.

"Hey," Doug says offended while Gil looks at his own muscles.

"Well, I'll go," Gil says causing Gabby to smile.

"Yeah, actually, I would feel better," Carlos says as he hugs Jane.

"Yeah, actually, I'd feel better, too," Evie agrees.

"Same," Gabby says as she stands beside Evie.

"Actually, I would, too," Doug says finally.

"All right, man. Let's do it. Let's go, Jane," Gil says excitedly.

"Be careful, okay?" Gabby tells her brother.

"I will," Gil says as they hug. Gil, Doug, and Jane leave to find Fairy Godmother. Gabby walks over to Ben, holding his hand as she leans her head on his shoulder as they watch their friends leave.
