Crossing Worlds - Wyatt Lykensen

Getting back the King

Mallory POV

We were all waiting for Ben to come down with Mal so we could go back to Auradon. Wyatt was sitting on a old stool and I was on his lap, leaning into his shoulder. I could feel Jay's stare on us. " Jay, I feel you staring." I say.

" Just making sure Wyatt watches his hands." Jay says. Wyatt's arms were around my waist and resting on my thigh.

" Jay stop." I say lifting my head to look at him.

" No." He says, I then grab one of the knives out my boot and threw it at the plank of wood next to his head. " I'll stop."

" Good choice." I say, I then snuggled back into Wyatt's side. Ben then came down the stairs, we all stood up. "Where's Mal?"

" She's not coming back." Ben said then walking away for some space.

" What?" Evie asked shocked. " I'll talk to her." Evie then walked over to the pipe that connected to the hide out. " M. Mal, it's Evie. Let me just talk to you for a second. Mal come on, we brought Mallory."

" Go away!" Mal yelled though the pipe. I then sighed and leaned against post. Wyatt pulled me in a hug and a few tear fell from my eyes.

" Let's give her a couple hours to cool off." Jay said. Carlos then look down the alley.

" Guys. Where's Ben?" He asked. We then all moved to look down the alley with him.

" Ben? Ben?" Evie said, the a shadow which we assume is Ben. " Ben don't scare us like that."

" Don't scare you? That my speciality." The shadow said looking us, it was Harry Hook.

" What did you do with Ben?" Jay asked angered, Harry just laughed. I stepped forward and grabbed his arm, twisted it behind his back and slammed him against the wall.

" I'm not in the mood for your games Hook." I growl.

" We nicked him. Mmm-hmm." He laughed. Jay pulled me back making me release Harry. " Yeah, mhm, and if you want to see him again have Mal come to the Chip Shoppe tonight. Alone. Uma wants a little visit." He then focused in on Jay. " Aw. Jay. Seems like to u lost your touch."

Jay got ready to punch him but Evie stopped him. Harry did a weird bark at Carlos, referencing to his old fear of dogs. He then zeroed in on me. " Mallory, looks like you've gone soft." He said raise his hook to my face but stopped when Wyatt stepped up behind me growling at him.

Harry just laughed, " Looks like you've got yourself a boyfriend. I say you ditch them and comeback to the crew."

" Pass." I say glaring at him.

" Remember : once a pirate, always a pirate." Hook said, that's what threw me over the edge. I stepped forward and threw a punch at his jaw, making him fall to the ground. Jay and the wolves held me back from throwing another one. He chuckled and stood up and walked away whistling a tune.

" Let's go." I say then climbing up the side of the building into the hide out. We all came in through a window and I ran into the main room and see Mal spray painting the wall. " Mal?"

She then turned slightly shocked. " Mallory? I thought Evie just said you were here to trick me out of here." She said hugging me.

" I came here for you." I say breaking the hug.

" Mallory, I'm not going back to Auradon." She said.

" I know, I respect that. I just needed a goodbye." I say with teary eyes. Jay then cleared his throat making us turn to him.
