Soon the core five got on their bikes with Celia riding with Mal and Scarlett riding with Vanessa. They had to get to the Isle quickly if they wanted to stop Audrey but they wouldn't know what they'd face when they get to the Isle.

"Noble steed, proud and fair, you shall take us anywhere." Mal casted before they drove to the Isle over the water. "Carlos, you're gonna miss Jane's birthday." Dude called out to the boy but it was too late to turn back.

The VKs got to the Isle and drove into an Isle to park their bikes while there was chatter all around them wondering what they were doing back so soon.

"Hey. I'm me again." Mal smiled as she looked down at her hands and touched her face.

"Duh." Scarlett let out as the seven of them gathered. "Evil magic doesn't work here. Kind of the point." Celia continued reminding her as Scarlett nodded.

"Welcome back." Evie wrapped her arms around Vanessa and Mal as they walked forward with the two young VK girls. "Thank you." Mal thanked her as she let out a laugh with the two joining her as the boys followed them.

Celia and Scarlett led the older VKs to a door before they smiled doing a door knock which they got in return.

The door then opened causing them to share a victorious smile before they walked in. The five soon entered Dr. Facilier's Voodoo Arcade.

"Daddy." Celia jumped down as she greeted her father with a grin. "Here she is. Hey, yeah. Come here little rascal." Facilier laughed as he hugged her before they did a dance together. "Hey, Scarlett isn't that your dad over there." Vanessa nodded to an empty table where Scar was sitting.

"Dad?" Scarlett tilted her head as she headed to the table. "Scarlett? What are you doing here?" Scar looked at his daughter in confusion though he was happy to see her.

"Me? I used to hang out here all the time with Cece. What are you doing here?" Scarlett furrowed her eyebrows as she sat down in front of him.

"Well since you left I hadn't had anything to do so I thought why not visit this place." Scar explained though his real excuse was he missed her and he wanted to be in a place that reminds him of her.

"Aw, you miss me." Scarlett smiled knowing her father well enough to see between the lines.

"Never said that." Scar shook his head as he tried to deny it but she was right. "Well I hadn't had anything to do either." Scarlett told him with a small smile as it was a way to say she missed him as well.

"Mhm. . ." Scar nodded trying to hide a grin but he couldn't any longer as he missed her.

Since Scar had a dessert in front of him he handed Scarlett one spoon, which she got with happiness, as he grabbed another and the father daughter duo ate the ice cream with grins.

The core five looked at the two girls with smiles knowing they had a close relationship with their fathers which they really couldn't relate to.

"So, what kind of hustle you got going on with them shiny people?" Facilier asked his daughter as they walked down. "No hustle. I got friends on the other side." Celia shook her head as she walked ahead.

"Ah! I hear you. I hear you." Facilier nodded as Celia grabbed the key they needed. "We're on a mission. I'm kind of a major player so that's why I can't stay long." Celia smirked as she wore the key.

"You make sure you get your cut." Faciler pointed to his daughter with a serious expression which she nodded to with a smirk while the core five looked around the arcade.

"Uh, guys. Come look at this." Carlos called out to his best friends after he turned on the television and soon they all got to him.

"There are rumors that Sleeping Beauty's daughter, Audrey, is behind the spell. We're trying to discover who is responsible for these vicious lies, and which villain has perpetrated this evil." The reporter announced over the television.

"What the hell? They can't just blame this on a villain." Vanessa glared as she tried to prevent her hair from glowing as Celia and Scarlett walked over to them with their fathers.

"We have an update. It's what? It's moving this way? It's moving this way." The reporter freaked out as the core five exchanged a look with each other.

"Let's go." Mal and Vanessa announced with serious expressions as they all stood up.

Scarlett bid her father a goodbye and gave him a quick small hug which he surprisingly returned back. Celia also hugged her father goodbye before the seven of them walked out of the arcade.

"Wow! Rookie mistake?" Carlos sighed as he gestured the pirates on their bikes. "Long time nay see." Harry smirked as Vanessa walked forward.

"Hello, boys." Vanessa walked towards them as she crossed her arms but in honesty she did miss them.

"Hey, Nessie!" Gil grinned as he waved with excitement. "Hey, Gil." Vanessa smiled as she waved back.

"Come on sweetheart." Harry smirked as he placed Vanessa's pirate hat on her head before driving off with the others leaving her bike there.

"Get off my bike, Hook." Jay glared at the Hook boy as they still had their own beef. "Catch me if you can, Jay." Harry crackled as the boys tried to catch them but the pirate boys were far.

"Over the roofs." Jay told Carlos and Evie as he grumbled. "Cut them off." Carlos agreed before the three rushed to get the bikes.

"I think they forgot mine is still here." Vanessa shrugged as she gestured her bike while fixing her pirate hat she forgot there. "Hey, hey, hey, hey, not you guys." Mal stopped Celia and Scarlett as they were about to follow the other three.

"They got this. We have to find the ember." Vanessa gestured the four of them as she reminded the two.

"Good timing." Celia nodded as she remembered something as did Scarlett. "It's right about his nap time." Scarlett continued as she thought back.

"I don't know if I should be upset you guys know him more than we do or sad that you guys know that. . . no I'm just sad you guys had to know that." Vanessa pointed to the two before she answered herself.

"Same." Mal agreed with her younger sister before Scarlett and Celia started to take them on the way to his lair.
