Help!
-Jessa, what the hell? -Mischa's in trouble!
-What? Where? -I don't know...
I thought I heard her...
The pond!
I heard you!
I heard your voice inside my head!
-Mischa! -Max, get the Healer!
Brax, get Lienda!
What have I done?
I had no idea humans were so fragile... honest!
Knock it off, Opal. No one's buying your shit.
Try that again
and they'll be serving filet o' mermaid for lunch.
Mischa!
You're OK! She is OK, isn't she?
I'm fine.
Mischa had a close call, but I don't sense any damage.
-That was close.
I'm curious about the spell that's fused to Mischa's aura.
Spell?
It looks like my old teacher Louis's handiwork,
but I've never seen a spell quite like it.
Louis was there when Mischa and Jessa were born,
his magic saved Mischa's life.
You incompetent witch!
What were you thinking
letting Mischa take part in combat class?
I was thinking that Mischa had
sufficient skills to defend herself
-against a bunny shifter. -Well you thought wrong!
And your stupidity almost ruined everything!
Ruined...?
Sorry, am I interrupting?
No. No interruption.
We were just discussing coach Rihan's
regrettable lapse in judgement.
I just heard what happened! Is Mischa OK?
She's a sixteen-year-old wolf shifter who can't shift.
She's most certainly not OK.
Her lack of power is unfortunate.
But as long as Mischa's unharmed,
that's all that really matters.
It's imperative that we keep Mischa protected.
I know you're concerned about the safety of all our students.
Yes, yes. Of course, all of the students.
You're the Council Leader,
you're supposed to make sure the schools are safe!
Especially the Academy!
That little mermaid tried to kill you.
Tried, but failed... Jessa saved me.
I'm so grateful you were there!
We're not there yet.
Ah... OK.
You're feeling OK? No cuts, no bruises?
I'm fine, Jonathon.
You know you could call me "dad."
I'm fine, Dad. Borghild said so.
That's not all she said... Who's this Louis guy?
And how did he save my life?
Tell them...
The night you two were born,
should have been the best night of our lives.
No, not should have been, was.
And it was the worst night, too.
You were both so tiny and so perfect.
After the midwife left,
we just wanted to hold you for hours.
We were devastated when we saw your dragon marks.
Louis was an old friend,
and the most powerful sorcerer we knew.
He tried covering your dragon marks
with a concealing spell,
but that wasn't enough.
The magic of dragon-marked twins,
your magic, was too powerful.
We knew we had to separate you.
I had spent time in the human world,
so we decided that was the best place for me
to take one of you and hide.
Louis was able to bind Mischa's powers,
so she could live as a human.
No one had ever done anything like it before.
But Louis was very powerful. And very determined.
His suppression spells worked...
he saved your lives.
Even though it almost killed him.
You have to understand,
it was the only way to keep you,
both of you, safe...
Me and Jessa used to talk about everything...
But I can't even remember
the last time we had a real conversation.
I think Jessa's just worried about Mischa.
Without her shifter powers,
it's scary how vulnerable she is.
Topic?
-I'm worried about Jessa. -I'm worried about Mischa.
And I'm worried about both of them.
There's something you should know...
The night that we broke into Kristov's study?
Jessa didn't leave empty-handed...
OK, I get why you did what you did.
But where's this Louis now?
I need him to fix his stupid spell.
I don't know.
He disappeared years ago. No one knows where he went.
Forget about finding Louis!
He did a half-assed job in the first place.
We can find someone else
who can remove the suppression spell.
I don't think that's a good idea.
Because your ideas have worked out so well?
-Jessa! -What? It's true!
You separated us,
and you took away Mischa's Wolf!
You say it was to protect us, but we missed out on so much!
You have no idea of the sacrifices...
That's enough for tonight,
the girls need to get back to the dorm before curfew.
It's so freaky...
if it hadn't been for Louis,
we'd be in a cloister right now.
If they had locked us up,
at least we would have grown up together.
And then we would have found a way to escape.
I bet that's what that boy you saw was trying to do.
Escape!
Except, Kristov caught him...
Ready for another adventure?
I'm ready for anything!
If you're going on another field trip,
we're coming too.
And here's our ‘permission slip'!
We're trying to find the door that matches up
to the one we saw Kristov call up in the woods. Right?
Right-ish. Mischa and I already found the door.
-You did? -What? Wait?
But we couldn't get it open. And we tried everything.
If the door isn't keyed to your aura,
it's not gonna open, no matter what you do.
We couldn't open Kristov's door,
but maybe one of you can.
Stay away from that one,
unless you want to end up in the butt crack of a volcano!
Look, Max, it's the door to home!
Come on, let's stop by Bunica's Bakery
and get something to eat.
Maybe pop in, and say hi to mom and dad?
That's a solid no, little bro.
We don't have a legit pass. We're using a stolen token.
So, no, we are definitely not dropping in on family!
Aww, no Cozonac cu Nuca?
Listen! Do you hear that?
-Nope. -Nothing.
-Uh-uh. -I don't.
Really?
You don't hear that?
-Probably an earworm. -Eww. Gross.
It's not an actual worm.
It's what it's called when a song gets stuck in your head.
Ugh, I hate when that happens.
See, there it is!
Nope. Nothing.
Hey, Jae, come and give it a try.
Jae!
Where are we?
Where did they go?
What is this place?
Don't you recognize it?
No. How could I? I've never been here before.
No one has. Not for a thousand years...
A thousand years?
Wait, you think this is the Faerie Realm?
I don't think. I know.
This is Faerie.
This is home.
But the Faerie Realm is dead, and this place is...
Devastated... but not dead.
We should probably get back, go back...
Jessa! Max! Stop!
I know you want to keep trying...
But it's time to admit it.
We're in over our heads.
Mischa's right...
We need to go get dad.
Jae? Jae!
Jae, we have to go.
I can't leave.
Can't you see the land is thirsty?
It's desperate for fae magic, and I have magic to give!
It can't be the Faerie Realm! It's impossible!
It's clearly not impossible,
since that's exactly what happened.
The kids said Jae heard music,
and Jae is the one it opened for...
So, we just need another faerie to open it.
You don't need a faerie, we're fae, too.
As Stratford's Fae leaders, Faerie will respond to us.
Jae, we have to go! Jae? Jae!
It's fine, I'm fine.
You're not fine.
This place is sucking you dry.
It's too thirsty, too devastated.
Even if you give it every ounce of magic you have,
it won't be enough to revive it.
I have to try!
No. You have to stop. Before it kills you.
I can't stop.
I won't stop.
Obviously, we do need a faerie
to open a door to the Faerie Realm.
Kristov's aura spell
will trick the door into believing
the Headmaster is a faerie like Jae.
What if Jae and Brax...
I should have seen it...
What if Brax and I never...
I could have caught them and I should have been faster.
I mean, we haven't...
we were supposed to...
someday.
Your magic isn't working.
It's time to use our powers, and force it open.
Everyone knows you can't force a door to open.
We are not everyone.
It's gonna be OK.
My mom's got an attack spell that can take down a fortress.
The Faerie Realm after so many years...
We've known Jae and Brax forever.
We don't want them to die.
-Wait? What? -Who said anything about dying?
Nobody's dying.
If Brax and Jae are trapped in Faerie without a door,
they're never coming home.
Jae! These plants are messing with your mind,
you're not thinking straight.
No! Leave us alone!
Jae, you're my friend.
I'll do anything to protect you,
even if I have to kick your ass to do it!
I don't want to hurt you!
I want this.
I need this.
Your daughters and their friends
had no business being in here.
It's entirely their fault Jae and Braxton are in danger.
I agree. They broke the rules.
And they will face discipline.
But right now,
we have bigger problems to deal with.
You'll have to deal without me. There's nothing more I can do.
Kristov!
I'm sorry, Headmaster Kristov.
You need to open a door to the Faerie Realm.
I've already tried to open the door,
the hub is not cooperating.
You don't need the hub.
You can make a door anywhere. I've seen you do it.
Yes. I can open a door to many places.
But only places I've been before.
And I've never been to Faerie.
I'm sorry, but I cannot help you.
We tried everything.
When Jae was standing at the door,
they said they heard something.
Jae's always been a good listener.
If you need a fae who's good at listening,
maybe I can help?
I'm not just a fae,
I'm a teacher, a husband, and a father...
I know how to listen.
Really listen.
OK, you win.
I'll go back to Stratford without you.
I just need to find the door to get outta here.
Where's the damn door?
Faerie hid it,
it knows if you leave, you'll try to take me with you.
Jae! Braxton!
This way! Hurry!
Let them go!
We need to get them to the infirmary.
Brax!
Hey, man.
Your daughters' recklessness could have cost two lives.
Get your pups under control, or we'll do it for you.
Student access to the hub
is restricted until further notice.
All existing token have been deactivated.
Any student caught trying to enter the hub
will be expelled!
Is Jae gonna be OK?
Jae made a profound connection with Faerie...
Now that they've lost it... Jae may never feel whole again.
Your latest stunt has proven to everyone
that you cannot handle your power responsibly.
I will take the maximum amount of demerits allowed by law.
-We made a mistake... -We're really sorry.
It's too late for excuses, and apologies...
Sixty percent demerits.
Hold out your hands.
Terra, no! She wasn't a part of this.
Not you, you have no power to give.
