Part 23: Getting Ben Back

Later that day, about five minutes before noon, a limo pulled up to the tunnel that led us to Uma's ship. At first, I was confused, but when Jay and Carlos jumped out of the limo, my confusion went away. However, it returned again when a girl jumped out of the limo too.

"I'll go get the swords," she said, going towards the back of the limo.

"Who's she?" I asked, not realizing I had spoken aloud.

"That's Lonnie, she's Mulan's daughter," Evie said as the girl- Lonnie- walked back to the front of the limo with the swords.

"Do you have the wand?" Mal asked.

Carlos turned his attention from a dog to Mal. "Yeah, here."

Mal held the wand and admired it. "What a beauty. It looks almost exactly like the real one. Great job."

"Hey, not to burst anyone's bubble, but it's noon," I said. "Are we ready?"

"Yeah," everyone said in unison.

"Let's do this," Mal said, walking into the tunnel with everyone else following after her.

When we all reached the other side, I saw Gil looking at us with a goofy grin.

"Hey guys, they're here!" Gil shouted to Uma and her crew. "Look, Chloe came too!"

"Welcome," Harry smirked before he sent a wink my way.

Uma:
Huh, let's get this party started
I swear I'm cold-hearted
There's no negotiation
I'm not here for debatin'

You need some motivation?

Just look at Ben's face

Then ask yourself how long you think I'll remain patient
I'll throw him overboard and let him swim with killer sharks

You either hand over the wand or he'll be ripped apart

Mal:

Now, let's all just be smart
Although for you that must be hard

You'll get your wand

No one has to come to any harm
Don't try to intimidate
Your bark is much worse than your bite
Who's the baddest of them all?
I guess we're finding out tonight

All:
Let's go, bring it on
Better give us what we want
It's the wand for the crown
If you don't, it's going down
Let's go, make your move
Peace or war, it's up to you
Give him up and do it now
If you don't, it's going down
We want the wand
Or else the king is gone
Your time is running out
You should really watch your mouth
Let's go, pound for pound
We're prepared to stand our ground
Put your swords up, put 'em up
It's going down

Yo-ho, ho-oh, oh-oh, make the trade
Yo-ho, ho-oh, oh-oh, or walk the plank
Yo-ho, ho-oh, oh-oh, make the trade
Yo-ho, ho-oh, oh-oh, or walk the plank

Mal:
Ok, look, this is not a conversation
It's a do-or-die situation
If you don't give me back the king
I'll have no hesitation
I'll serve you right here
And I don't need a reservation
That way your whole "pirate crew" can have a demonstration
Release him now, and we can go our separate ways
Unless you wanna deal with me
And the VK's
