"Jay, keys- Remote." Ben threw it towards Jay, who catches it easily.

"Wait!" Everyone turned to look at Evie as she talked, and then she leant over to fix Ben's beanie. Rowan smiles slightly and simply shakes her head. "There."

Rowan had changed into a dark blue denim jacket, paired with a darker coloured blouse below, a brown skirt, stockings underneath, and brown boots that reached her knees.

"Shotgun!" A voice yelled, they all looked down to see Dude. She was confused on why Dude was talking.

"No, Dude. Stay." Carlos ordered, he felt slightly guilty for doing that. "The Isle is way too dangerous." Dude made a sad noise and laid on the ground.

"Did he just..." Jay started.

"Talk? Yeah. I know. Tell you later." Carlos replied as he made his way towards the car. Everyone trailed him inside the limousine.

"Okay, once we cross the bridge, park under the pier in the old garage. Got it?"

"Got it."

When they arrived at the island, Rowan got out to explore and wondered how someone could actually live here. "Ben, help me with the tarp." Carlos says as he pulled out an old sheet.

Rowan's heart ached as she observed Jay and Evie conversing, understanding how difficult it must be for them to be back here and that they might become stranded once more.

"Hey, what's in here?" Ben questioned, looking into the tunnel.

"You don't want to know." Jay pulled him away.

"Keep it chill, all right?" Carlos spoke as everyone looked over at him. "The last thing we need is our parents figuring out we're here." They all nodded before making their way into the isle.

𐬽𐬼𐬽

As they strolled across the island, Ben strayed without thinking and Evie was mugged by kids. Even though the last several minutes had been frenetic, nothing prepared them for who they encountered next.

"Hey, man. Hey!" The blonde stranger said as Ben had bumped into him. "Hey, I know you!"

"Uh, no. Don't know you, either, man." Ben replied in a "cool " way.

"Uh, yeah, you do and I know you too." He pointed at Rowan, Rowan took a step back wondering if Mother Gothel had any offspring's around here.

"Dude, I'll give you a hint. My dad is quick, slick and his neck... Huh? is incredibly thick." Rowan instantly knew who his dad was, They quickly left in a rush as soon as he knew who they all were.

Ben made the decision to go up the many flights of stairs by himself. "Wish me luck." He said, they all responded to him as they all sat there now bored.

Rowan was humming to herself as a cut on her palm closed back up after a short amount of waiting. "I assumed that when your mother's hair was cut, her powers vanished?" Jay inquired.

"It did, but my hair doesn't glow like hers did. For some strange reason, whenever I hum or sing, I can heal wounds, and nobody knows why." He nodded in response to Rowan's explanation.

"Do you believe they are alright?" Carlos questioned from where he was standing.

"I have faith in them, they will overcome whatever is thrown at them." Says Rowan, attempting to lift everyone's spirits.

"Yes, perhaps." Looking at the girl who just gave him a captivating smile, Carlos remarks.

They noticed Ben was heading downstairs by himself when they heard a nose coming from behind them. His expression was subdued, and Rowan's hopes began to waver.

"Where's Mal?"

"She's not coming back." The brown haired boy said as he tried to hold himself together.

"Oh Ben." Rowan says trying to comfort him, only to watch him walk away.

"What? I'll talk to her." Evie rushed towards the small speaker that travels up towards the small apartment.

"Go away!" Mal yelled into the speaker, Rowan had never heard her so angry before.

"Guys- Where's Ben?" Carlos inquired, his voice filled with worry as everyone looked around.

Following several anxious minutes, the group became calm when they noticed a silhouette approaching them and assumed it was Ben. "Ben, don't scare us like that."

As soon as Rowan noticed it wasn't Ben, she immediately pulled back. "Don't scare you?" The figure looked up with a grin.

Everyone started to fear as soon as they realised who he was. Rowan saw the hook and figured it must have belonged to his father, the infamous Captain Hook. "But that's my speciality." He answered.

"What did you do with Ben?" Jay asked.

Harry glanced around, like if he was looking for Ben. "Oh, uh, we nicked him. Mm-hmm. Yeah." Harry smirked and said. "And if you want to see him again, have Mal come to the Chip Shoppe tonight...Alone. Uma wants a little visit."

He turned to face the blonde girl, who was staring at him a little fearfully. "And, darling, what is your name?" He started to slide his hook under her chin, speaking as he did. But Jay glared at the pirate as he stepped in front of her.

"Aw, Jay. Seems like you've lost your touch." He smirked, before turning back to Rowan and winked at her. He slowly walked away as the Vk's glared at him.

Rowan could understand her mother's decision to wed a thief.

Like mother like daughter, we got our first interaction with Harry and Rowan but it was only smallish like usual when I introduce my character to their love interest. This is once again smallish.
