Few miles out of home, something whispered in Manticore's ear again "Stonehenge, the banishing shrine of demons" and it went on and on about how to cleanse Orion of Morgoth la' Daemon's took off his helmet and set it next to him. "where is the Stonehenge?" asked Manticore "i think its in the British or European Isles, y?" replied Avilame "thats where i was supposed to perform the ritual, we need to get there" replied Manticore "ah, then lets go there!" said Cmeister when he pressed the button to transform the van into a the flight towards the Stonehenge, Manticore took off his foot armor and it had 5 toes again. "guys? i think im turning human" Everyone saw his foot as it turned into a human foot "dude, wats up w/ this? Humans turning into Abberants? vica versa?" asked Avilame "idk, at least i dont have symptoms like the last" replied he meant was vomiting,diarrhea,turning blue,slight tingling sensation, and wierd strapped his helmet back took 10 minutes to get to the Stonehenge, they carried Orion to the Stonehenge and they saw ChainDark the Demon Spear again, but this time, Shadow was battling against it. He recently visited Earth again then something attacked him."Shadow?! wat r u doing here?!" yelled Cmeister "iv come to help u!" Shadow yelled back. He held up his arm and a tornado sucked up ChainDark and the tornado dissapated after 10 fell the the ground while Shadow summoned his energy blades and broke it in 3 slowely faded into the dark and deluded atmosphere and Shadow walked over to the middle of the StoneHenge and set up the remaining stones that eroded and disapeared. The Avians built this right before the humans came into existance, as a portal to the Underworld that could trap and destroy demons forever. Shadow was wielding the Demon Dagger in his hand and put it in his dagger socket behind his was 10 minutes till' midnight and Manticore was limping for no reason "wats rong?" asked Genesis "my legs hurt..oww!" replied Manticore in he collapsed and instantly turned human."MANTICORE!" yelled Genesis as she ran towards him and the others looked back to see him collapsed "wat happened?!" yelled Cmeister "idk!" replied Genesis. Orion's eyes turned red again and the rest carried him towards the took off Manticore's helmet and saw his head of his human brown hair grew back along w/ all his fingers and FOP strapped Orion to the table in the middle while StarLight floated off of Manticore's back and above Orion, the sharp point facing towards the woke up and looked at Genesis then a few minutes later the FOP ran towards Manticore to set him on his feet and he looked at his hands while Spongs held a mirror to him. He was normal again, but he found himself able to transform to either race, very rare gift to he tried to change back to Abberant, it was succesfull and no symptoms occured, like that was a 1 in a lifetime event when he was changing into moon turned blood red in the form of a Lunar Eclipse, suddenly, the Red Morning Sun appeared and the Total makes moonshine bcum divine light? no one knows, for the light shown upon StarLight and Orion, whose eyes were still red and Morgoth was trying to seduce him, StarLight coverted the light into divine light that shown straight down to Orion's chest, then everyone saw a horrifying event. StarLight struck Orion thru the heart, same place that Morgoth was slaught, as he gasped for else burst out crying on the floor but Manticore ran back to Orion w/ StarLight stuck in the yanked it out and Morgoth's spirit lifted upwards, as a portal was shown above the StoneHenge,like a gravity lift taking Morgoth la' Daemon's spirit back to Hell where he was destroyed, once and for portal collasped w/ a loud bang, and a shockwave was sent to the four corners of the tried to bring Orion back to life but none of his magic powers else ran towards Orion still in tears. Suddenly, a bright light shown from the night sky when someone w/ feathered wings came down and blinded the person made it to Orion, all faded white and everyone else got thrown 10 miles from the StoneHenge across the flat plains.
