"Okay...That's normal," Rain looks down at her hands and a few people back away "Anyone have a clue what's happening because I swear to god I will cry again!"

"You're manipulating the light!" Carlos shouts from behind and Uma looks worried for a split second "I think..."

"Try throwing it at her!" Jane suggests and Rain shrugs, hurling the light in her right hand to Uma, who ducks out the way and Rain's left hand's light turns to a burgundy smoke, that Rain then throws at Uma who is pushed back by it "Cool," Rain looks over at Ben "This is normal,"

"Definitely," he nods and Mal starts fighting Uma, with occasional blows from Rain when Uma gets too close to hitting Mal.

"Come on Mal! Rain! Let's finish this once and for all!" Uma shouts and Jane walks up to Rain

"You mom used her hair to reverse time, maybe try that?" 

Uma uses a tentacle to go to hit the ship again, and Rain concentrates on it, throwing a glowing ball at it, the tentacle snaps back. Uma tries again and Rain manually controls the tentacle this time with the burgundy smoke, forcing it down. Uma screams in frustration and starts on Mal again.

Rain goes to take more light, but she only has one string of lights left, she takes all the energy into both her hands and shoots it at Uma. It creates a blinding light and Uma squints, covering her eyes and Mal gets a shot with her flames.

The three keep fighting and Rain edges to the end of the ship, ignoring the shouts from Ben and Carlos. Soon, not even the lampposts on the ship are lit and Rain uses her last ball of energy when Mal nearly misses one of Uma's tentacles. The only light now was Rain's glowing hair and Mal's fire. Rain sees Uma gaining the upper hand and shouts up.

"Mal!" she looks down "fire me!" she looks apprehensive "Just do it! Trust me!" as the fire works its way down to Rain, she takes the light, leaving just smoke. As she goes to throw it, Uma's tentacle sneaks up and pulls Rain into the water.

"Rain!" many people shouts and everyone rushes to the edge, watching Rain's hair slowly loose it's glow.

Down in the water, all Rain could see was her hair, burgundy to bright blond circling around her. She couldn't breathe or swim. The more she panics, her hair starts to lose its glow. Rain tries to kick to bring herself up to the surface but her legs are tangled in her skirt.

Rain looks up, looking for a way out, but it was getting darker and darker, all she sees is Uma duck down as Mal's fire comes at her at full strength.

Thoughts race through Rain's head as she wonders how she'll get up, until she hears a random a roar. Ben?! Oh god Ben. I can't die, oh hades.

Rain tries to focus and bring some light back but all she ends up doing is gasping for air while water fills her lungs.

She thinks for a split second before thinking of the song her mother made her sing as she slowly loses consciousness.

'Flower gleam and glow, let your power shine...'

Back up, Mal races down to the water, it had barely been a minute since Rain had fell and she reaches in to find the glowing light that had just slightly come back. She pulls Rain up and flies to the top of the deck, turning back to her normal form and pumping on Rain's chest to get the water out, muttering spells under her breath. People barely had time to rush over before Rain was up and coughing out water.

"Are you okay?!" Mal askes urgently and Rain nods, sitting up and gesturing for Mal to pat her back as she keeps coughing. She looks to her right and sees that the moon is the only thing lighting the place and Ben is climbing up a ladder, receiving pats on his back as a crowd applauds. Mal pulls Rain up.

"I need a new dress," she notes, her voice hoarse from nearly dying as she looks down at her soaking wet outfit.

"Yeah," Mal nods and Rain closes her eyes, remembering a spell her mother gave her in a spell book and burgundy smoke engulfs her.
