Ariel faces off against Kauldron and his nightmare army. Finally pushed to her limits, she releases a nightmare of her own and transforms into a giant, red dragon. She burns up all of her enemies but, unfortunately, Perry's father also gets caught in the blast. With the nightmare over, Perry encourages Ariel to flee before the authorities arrive and blame her for the whole mess. Ariel weeps bitterly as she leaves her love and Salem, Georgia behind.
