Rotten To The Core

It's Going Down

CHAPTER 26

"I'll get the swords," Jay tells Lonnie as he gets out of the car.

"Okay," Lonnie says before heading over to Mal, Ellie, and Evie.

"Oh, Lonnie!" Ellie says in shock before they hug.

"I made them bring me," Lonnie explains.

"Oh, I'm so glad," Ellie says as Lonnie and Evie hug.

"Hi. Welcome to the Isle. It's good to see you," Evie tells her.

"Thanks," Lonnie says as she hugs Mal.

"And Dude," Jay says as he grabs the swords from the trunk.

"I told you to stay," Carlos says.

"I flunked obedience class," Dude tells him.

"Great. And he can still talk," Jay says.

"You're lucky I love you. Come on," Carlos says as he picks up Dude.

"Ooh. Here, let me see," Ellie says as Carlos walks over with the wand before handing it to her. "Wow, what a beauty."

"It's noon," Jay tells her.

"All right. Are we ready?" Ellie asks.

"Yeah," Evie says as she holds up the bag with the smoke bombs.

"Let's do this," Ellie says before leading them into the tunnel.

"Hey, guys! They're here!" Gil calls out from the crow's nest before climbing down.

"Welcome!" Harry calls as he pushes Ben forward.

"Finally!" Uma says with an excited laugh. Ellie stands across from Uma, on either sides of the walk way. Carlos and Evie stand on the walkway behind Ellie with Lonnie, Mal, and Jay on the walkway above Carlos and Evie.

"Let's get this party started

I swear I'm cold hearted

There's no negotiation

I'm not here for debatin'

You need some motivation?

Just look at Ben's face, then ask yourself

How long you think I'll remain patient

I'll throw him overboard

And let him swim with killer sharks

You either hand over the wand, or he'll be ripped apart," Uma sings as Harry walks Ben out onto the plank.

"Now let's all just be smart

Although for you, that must be hard

You'll get your want

No one has to come to any harm
