Upon traveling for the wedding, they are travelling the Magnetic Hill in Los Baños, Laguna on their way to Batangas, where the wedding is to be held. When the eclipse happened, an accident occurred. Precy's soul went into Medelyn's body. Medelyn's soul went into Bien. Bien's went to Toffee. Toffee's went to Stefanie and Stefanie's went to Precy.
