    Alberto hit a wall and fell to the ground. Hugo grew taller and took Alberto by the throat, banging him against the wall. "You're too weak to outsmart me! Join me now or this will be your last!" Hugo hollered. "I...will...never..." Alberto huffed. Chernabog transformed out of Hugo as Alberto looked up in terror. Chernabog levitated Alberto as Alberto struggled to let go. "Face it! You're just a piece of pathetic waste. Nobody cares about you!" "Think again!" Just then, a sword cut Chernabog on the arm as it boomeranged back to Jake. "He has us!" James said as the rest of the group joined in. Alberto smiled. Chernabog snapped his fingers as demons started surrounding Alberto's friends. Chernabog sat on his 'throne' as he watched what was going on. Alana was with him. "My queen, finish them. Their souls are mine!" Chernabog told Alana. Alana cracked her knuckles and her neck. "Of course. Let's start the show." Alana said. She flew on the ground and started to sing:
Ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah (ah-ah-ah-ah)
Ah-ah-ah (ah-ah-ah-ah)
Welcome to the show (ah-ah-ah-ah)
We're here to let you know (ah-ah-ah-ah)
Our time is now (ah-ah-ah-ah)
Your time is running out (ah-ah-ah)
Ah-ha, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ha, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Feel the wave of wrath as it blocks your path
You can't turn away
We'll make you wanna stay
We will be adored
Tell us that you want us
We won't be ignored
It's time for our reward
Now, you need us
Come and heed us
Nothing can stop us now

Alberto then started singing:
It's now or never
We can do it better
With me and my friends!
Nothing will get through us
We will fight and defend!

What we have in store? (Ah)
All we want and more (ah)
We will break on through (ah)
Now, it's time to finish you!

Alana used her dark magic to suck up the groups souls, including Alberto's. Ercole hid, did what he had to do to defeat Chernabog, and save his friends. Alberto then looked up at Alana weakly. Tears were streaming down his eyes. "Amber! I know you can hear me! You have always been my one true love! I want to spend the rest of my life with you in Enchancia! I know I have been stupid, but you have showed me what love really is! I see that now! Please come back to me, princess! I love you with all my heart! But before I go..." Alberto got down on one knee and pulled out the ring Jake gave to him. "Will you be my forever Princess and live happily ever after with me?" Alberto said. Alana stopped as everyone fell to the ground. She saw this and started tearing up. She also saw Alberto wearing her amulet. "Alberto?" she said. "I love you Amber, will you marry me?" Alberto told her. Alana smiled, tearing up with happiness. Just then, Alana's emotions started fading and she fell to the ground. Alberto caught her. "No! This cannot be! She was mine! MINE!!!" Chernabog roared. "Luca, get Rachel's book." Giulia told her friend. "Me?" Luca said. Giulia then kissed his cheek. "I believe in you." Giulia told him. Mother of Pearl. Luca thought and he ran to get the book. Due to their Master's anger, the demons ran away. "Face it Chernabog! You're outnumbered!" Jake said. "Fools! I will show you what true power feels like!" Chernabog bellowed. As he was about to steal souls, Alberto set Amber down and threw his dagger, aiming it at Chernabog's eye. It struck Chernabog as he roared out in pain. "Nobody messes with Alberto Scorfano and his family!" Alberto called out. Suddenly out of his good eye, Chernabog saw Ercole throwing him against a wall as Ercole hurt his leg. Alberto grabbed the harpoon, using it as a jumping stick to aim it at Chernabog. "Your soul is mine," Chernabog murmured. Without noticing, Alberto used the golden harpoon and struck Chernabog in the heart. Chernabog roared as Alberto fell. "I got this!" Sofia said. Using a keyblade (Kingdom Hearts Reference) she acquired, she used it to make a pillow appear. Alberto landed on it safely. Luca returned with Rachel's book. Just then, the mountain started to shake. "The mountain's gonna collapse! Run!!!" Jake told everyone. Alberto picked up Amber and followed everyone else out of the mountain. As they exited, and got to the nearby abandoned house, the whole mountain came down and Chernabog was destroyed.
