Maui continued to fight Te Kā, even without his hook. "Come on! COME ON!" he yelled at the lava¹ monster.

 

No longer sure what to do, Moana took a deep breath to calm herself and listened for her voice inside. She turned and saw Te Kā looming² over Maui, volcanic³ lightning flashing all around them. And then she spotted⁴ something on Te Kā's chest. A glowing spiral covered up by cooling lava. Moana looked over her shoulder at the empty crater⁵ where Te Fiti should be.

 

"The spiral ... ," she said, looking down at the heart in her hand. Its glow brightened with her every step and she looked to the ocean. Moana knew what she had to do.

 

As Te Kā lifted a mighty⁶ fist to destroy Maui, a blinding light glowed from the heart. Moana held it above her head like a beacon⁷, shining brighter and brighter. Te Kā noticed the light and turned its eyes toward it.

 

"Let her come to me," Moana said to the ocean. And the ocean began to recede⁸ and part, like it had so many years ago when Moana was a toddler on the beach. As she walked along the path, the water continued to part ... opening a channel all the way to Te Kā's barrier islands.

 

"Moana! What are you doing?" shouted Maui.

 

Te Kā, full of fury, raced down the open channel toward Moana and the heart! But Moana walked peacefully and deliberately¹⁰ toward Te Kā. She looked directly at the raging monster and sang to it calmly, completely focused on it. Moana reminded the monster that there was still a voice down deep inside that no one could ever take away. She explained that she knew what it was like to lose that little voice, and she encouraged the monster to listen to its own.

 

As Te Kā listened to Moana's words, the lava monster became quiet and calm. It soon came to rest at Moana's feet. Moana reached out and put the heart of Te Fiti into the spiral on Te Kā's chest and whispered, "Know who you are."

 

Te Kā closed its eyes, and suddenly its rocky exterior¹¹ cracked open and crumbled¹² apart, revealing a beautiful, serene¹⁴ green face. Te Kā was Te Fiti! A vibrant¹⁵ crown of flowers and leaves bloomed around Te Fiti's head.

 

Maui watched in complete shock as Te Fiti rose and the ocean lifted Moana up into the air. Without warning, Maui was also grabbed by the ocean, sucked under, and dragged to the shore. He was placed right next to Moana. The ocean then carried Heihei and deposited him beside them, too.

 

"The chicken lives!" shouted Maui, looking at Heihei.

 

The ground rumbled¹³ and shook as Te Fiti used her hand to lift Moana and Maui up toward her face.

 

Moana knelt and pulled Maui down to his knees, too. Te Fiti nodded in gratitude¹⁶ to Moana, and Moana nodded back. Then Te Fiti looked at Maui ... who shrugged¹⁷, embarrassed.

 

"Hey there, Te Fiti. So ... how ya been ... ?" Maui said, trying to be charming. Te Fiti stared at him, unimpressed, and Maui looked down at his feet. "Look, what I did was ... I have no excuse. I did it for myself and ... and I'm sorry." Maui looked up sincerely.

 

Te Fiti raised her fist and waited just a moment before opening it. In her palm was Maui's magical hook. Maui couldn't believe it—it was fixed¹⁸ and looked as beautiful as it had the day he'd gotten it!

 

"YES! Chee-hoo!" he said, overjoyed. He stopped himself and lowered his voice, trying to remain respectful. "Thank you, uh, thank you ... your kind gesture is deeply, deeply appreciated." He added a small, "Chee-hoo!" Then he turned into a tiny bug¹⁹ and flew off.

 

Te Fiti lifted Moana close and gave her a hongi. She lowered Moana next to Maui on the shore and faded into the island as blossoms exploded all around them. A sea of pink petals²⁰ floated through the air, swirling²¹ onto the sand over Moana's boat, now fully⁹ restored and decorated with bright, beautiful flowers!

 

Maui scattered²² some birdseed for Heihei. "Gonna miss ya, Drumstick," he said. Heihei tried to eat the food but missed. Maui smiled fondly and shook his head. "Don't ever change."

 

Maui looked at Moana, and they both knew it was almost time to say goodbye. Moana gazed out to the ocean. "You could come with us, you know," she said. "My people are going to need a master wayfinder."

 

"They already have one," said Maui.

 

He smiled as a new tattoo²³ appeared over his heart. It was a picture of Moana, the proud wayfinder. Mini Maui smiled at Moana, then lifted the sky of the particular tattoo he was in and comfortably settled into place.

 

Moana jumped up and pulled Maui in for a big hug. When they parted, Maui swung his hook mightily²⁴, charging up and turning into a hawk²⁵. With one last smile, he flew off into the sky.

 

Moana hoisted²⁶ her sail and glanced back at the island of Te Fiti, awash with color. She dipped her oar²⁷ into the water and headed out to sea.

 

虽然没有了鱼钩，毛伊仍在与恶卡战斗着。“来吧！放马过来！”他朝着这头火山恶魔大吼道。

 

莫阿娜有些不知所措，她深吸一口气，让自己冷静下来，倾听自己内心的声音。她转身看到恶卡在毛伊上方，他们周围电光四射。突然，她发现恶卡的胸口有一个被冷却的岩浆覆盖住的发光旋涡。莫阿娜转头看向特菲提之心本该在的那个空火山口。

 

“旋涡……”莫阿娜叫道，低头看了看手里的特菲提之心。她每往前挪一步，那心就更加闪亮。莫阿娜看了一眼大海，知道接下来该做什么了。

 

就在恶卡举起强劲有力的拳头去击毁毛伊时，一阵炫目的光芒从特菲提之心散发出来。莫阿娜将它像灯塔般举过头顶，那心愈发明亮。恶卡注意到这亮光，朝它看了过来。

 

“让她来我这。”莫阿娜对着大海喊道。海水开始后退，一分为二，让出一条路来，那景象就和多年前莫阿娜还是孩子时在沙滩上看到的一样。她径直朝前走去，海水持续向两边分开……大海中间出现了一条通向恶卡盘踞的障壁岛通道。

 

“莫阿娜！你干什么？”毛伊大喊道。

 

恶卡顺着通道满脸愤怒地朝莫阿娜和特菲提之心冲去！莫阿娜则从容坚定地走向恶卡。她直视着这头怒火冲天的怪兽，平心静气地唱起了歌谣。她十分投入地用歌谣提醒那怪兽，每个人的内心深处都有一个真实的声音，谁都不能将它夺走。她解释道，她知道失去那个声音的痛苦，鼓励它也去聆听自己内心深处的声音。

 

听完莫阿娜的话，恶卡渐渐平静下来。很快，它停歇在了莫阿娜的脚边。莫阿娜伸手将特菲提之心放在恶卡胸口的旋涡处，轻声说道：“弄清你自己究竟是谁。”

 

恶卡闭上双眼，突然，包裹在它身体表面的岩石表层破裂开来，露出一张美丽安详而又青涩的脸庞。原来，恶卡就是特菲提女神！她头戴花冠，鲜花怒放，草叶青翠。

 

毛伊目瞪口呆地看着特菲提缓缓升起，大海举起莫阿娜。他也被大海毫无防备地拽入水里，拖到海岸上，稳稳地落到莫阿娜身旁。随后，大海也把憨憨送还到他们身边。

 

“这只鸡竟然还活着！”毛伊看着憨憨叫道。

 

特菲提用手将莫阿娜和毛伊托起，靠近自己的脸庞，此时地面轰隆作响，摇晃不停。

 

莫阿娜跪拉着毛伊跪了下来。特菲提充满感激地向莫阿娜点了点头，莫阿娜也点头回应。随后她又看向毛伊……毛伊耸了耸肩，有些不好意思。

 

“嘿，你好，特菲提。所以……你还好吧……?”毛伊问道，尽力让自己显得有魅力些。特菲提盯着他，完全不明白他在说什么，毛伊只好低下头看着自己的脚，“好吧，我过去对你做的事……我没有什么好解释的。我做这一切都是为了我自己……不好意思。”说完，毛伊诚恳地抬起头。

 

特菲提举起拳头，顿了顿，然后又缓缓松开了手。她手上放着的正是毛伊的魔法鱼钩。毛伊简直不敢相信——鱼钩竟然被修好了，看起来跟第一次拿到时一样光亮如新!

 

“好耶！哟呼！”毛伊乐不可支地叫道。他停住叫喊，压低声音，尽力保持恭敬礼貌：“谢谢，嗯，谢谢……真的是太、太感谢你啦。”他又小声欢呼一声“噢耶！”便变成一只小虫飞走了。

 

特菲提将莫阿娜举到眼前，给了她一个碰鼻礼，然后将她放到了毛伊身旁。接着特菲提与特菲提岛融为了一体，刹那间，岛上百花齐放。粉色花瓣在空中随风飘扬，在莫阿娜的小船周围纷飞盘旋，瞬间小船便完好如新，鲜花满船。

 

毛伊给憨憨撒了一些鸟食说道：“我会想你的，鸡腿儿。”憨憨努力地啄着，可总是啄不中。毛伊怜爱地笑着摇头说：“永远都不要改变。”

 

毛伊看着莫阿娜，他们都知道是时候说再见了。莫阿娜扭头看向大海说道：“其实，你可以和我们一起回家。你知道，我的岛民们需要一个像你这样的寻路高手。”

 

“他们已经有了。”毛伊说道。

 

他微笑着，这时他的胸口出现了一块新文身，上面是莫阿娜的图像——这个让人自豪的寻路人。小毛伊冲着莫阿娜笑了笑，举起自己头顶的那片天空，轻柔地放在文身莫阿娜的头顶。

 

莫阿娜跳起来给了毛伊一个大大的拥抱。分别时，毛伊用力挥舞魔法鱼钩，施展灵力又变成巨鹰。最后他展翅一笑飞向了天空。

 

莫阿娜升起船帆，回头看了看色彩缤纷的特菲提岛。她提桨伸入水中，驾船驶向了大海。
