Switched Tales 2

A Talk

People were walking around on Chad's ship. Some were carrying things.

Mal was leaning against a pole and was tied up. Audrey jumped down from the higher point she was at and leaned up. She was now face to face with Mal.

"Coochy-coochy coo." Audrey was teasing as she scratch the bottom of Mal's chin. She stopped and looked at Mal smirking. "How's it feel to be the queen now, eh?"

Audrey laughed and walked away, then she came up on the other side with her hand up close to Mal's face.

Chad grabbed Audrey's hand and pushed it away. "Give it a rest, Audrey. Give it a rest." Chad sat down in front of Mal. "We don't want damaged goods."

Audrey was holding onto some rope and leaned over to them and argued. "You said that I could hook him."

"I said at noon." Chad replied with a slight smile.

Audrey was looking at Chad, then looked over at Mal. She jumped down and pulled out a watch and help it up. "Twenty more minutes."

Mal leaned her head forward to look at the watch, then leaned back looking at Audrey. "That says 11:30."

Audrey took the watch away and leaned away from Mal.

"You better hope your boyfriend comes through." Chad told Mal.

"Mmm-hmm." Audrey agreed and stood beside Chad with one leg on the deck part.

"But he's not my boyfriend anymore." Mal responded not making eye contact with them.

Chad looks at Mal with a slight smile. As Audrey is chuckling.

"Leave us alone, Audrey." Chad instructs.

Audrey walks up to Mal smirking, then she gets close and says. "Nineteen minutes to go now."

"Go." Chad says not looking pleased with Audrey, then she walks away.

"I get that you don't deserve this." Mal told Chad.

Chad laughs and leans back. "This." Chad's smile fades and he looks serious. "This island is a prison thanks to your mother. And don't pretend to look out for because no one's looking out for me. It's just me."

"So, this isn't your mom's plan?" Mal checked.

Chad scoffs.

"Isn't that her magical necklace in your pocket?" Mal asked.

"My mom doesn't care about me either." Chad replied. "Well, not unless she needs someone for the night shift."

"Ouch." Mal said.

"I don't need your pity." Chad shut her down.

"No, you certainly don't." Mal agreed. "You're very resourceful."

Chad slightly shrugged.

"I don't see you tied up." Mal added.

Chad chuckled again, then stood up. "All right, so let's trash talk Ben."

"I'd rather talk about you." Mal responded.

"Mmm. Funny and a real lady." Chad turned around away from Mal. "I really hope I don't have to feed you to the fishes."

"Oh, you don't." Mal said. "Set me free and we'll go back together."

Chad turned back to Mal with a fake surprised look. "Oh, so now I get an invite." Chad chuckled and walked up to Mal. "Gee, I wonder why." Chad put his hand against the pole. "When you brought Ben." He rolled his eyes. "Doug, Jane, and Lonnie to Auradon, that's as mad as I've ever been in my life. And trust me, I've been plenty mad." He playfully hit Mal's cheek.

"I never thought of it like that before, that I could've hurt the people I didn't pick. The plan was to start with four kids and bring more people over. I guess I was busy being Queen. That sounds lame. I'm so sorry. You're a leader, Chad. So am I. Come to Auradon and be part of the solution." Mal was telling him.

"Me? Part of your solution?" Chad checked. Chad looked down, then back at Mal and got a little closer. "Nah. I don't need you. I'm gonna get there on my own. Audrey!" Chad pulled the necklace out of his pocket and held it up. "Let's see what this puppy can do."

Then Chad walked away leaving Mal by herself.

Lonnie parked the car and the three got out.

"I'll get the swords." Lonnie told Jay.

"Okay." Jay replied.

"Oh, Jay!" Ben said as Jay ran over.

Jay ran over. "I made them bring me." Jay held his fist up.

Ben fist bumped him. "Oh, I'm so glad."

Then Jay did the same to Doug and he fist bumped him back. "Welcome to the Isle. It's good to see you." Doug said.

"Thanks." Jay replied.

Lonnie and Jane opened the truck. When Lonnie pulled out the bag of swords they saw Ma'am laying there with a blanket covering her body.

"And Ma'am." Lonnie mentioned.

"I told you to stay!" Jane slightly yelled at her.

"I flunked obedience class." Ma'am told them.

"Great. And she can still talk." Lonnie added.

"You're lucky I love dogs." Jane said and picked Ma'am up and took her out. "Come on."

Lonnie closed the truck. Then Jane and Lonnie walked over to the other three with the scepter.

"Ooh. Here, let me see it." Ben put his hand out.

Jane handed him the scepter and Ben took a look.

"Wow, what a beauty." Ben said.

"It's noon." Lonnie told them.

Ben handed the scepter back to Jane. "All right. Are we ready?"

"Yeah." Doug answered holding up the bag of smoke bombs.

"Let's do this." Ben stated.

They started walking through the tunnel, then Jane stopped and turned back to Ma'am. Ma'am started to run to Jane.

"Stay!" Jane pointed the scepter at her and Ma'am sat down and whined. "I mean it." Jane put the scepter in her jacket, then walked through the tunnel to the other side with the others
