Robertus was furious. He dismounted his horse and immediately went to the witches cell. When he entered, she was in the corner and was startled awake by the door slamming against the wall. She looked up on fear. He pulled her to her feet.

"What did you do?" She looked confused. "There was another night who had a sword forged like mine! The hilts had similar marks. Mine was the moon his was the sun! But one thing is clear. They were made by the same witch!" He waited for her response.

"I told you in the beginning that there has to be a balance. Where there's good, there is evil. Where there is light, there is dark. The sword of the moon has the sun. There is never one without the other. It is something I do not control. It is the balance of nature." She looked in his eyes. "We used to be balanced, Robertus, until evil overtook your heart and you decided to use me to unleash your fury with that sword. You can still end this and come back to me."

"How do I defeat this blue knight?" He ignored her. She moved away from him and looked down. "HOW?!"

"The only way is to capture his sword and place it in a stone of suppression. That will stop it's power."

"And where do I find this stone?" He moved forward.

"I will no longer do your bidding!" She moved back against the wall.

He walked up to her and looked her in the eye. "You will do my bidding or else you will die."

"Then kill me."

"You will do as you are told or... Or I will summon the sword to seek out your family and kill them." She looked horrified. "Oh yes. I found the spell. And all I need is your blood to do it. Now, where is this stone?"

She looked defeated. "I must be there to make it."

"You lie!"

"I do not! It is the only way the sword can be undone." She moved away from him and looked out the window.

"We leave at dawn to find this blue knight and take the castle he protects." He left locking the door behind him.

"Blue knight, you are my only hope."


Lady Arlette summoned Ziggus and Sportacus as she paced the floor. The doors opened and they entered.

"You wanted to see us, my lady?"

"Yes, Ziggus. First I am glad you are both well and made it back safely. Did you find out anymore about this purple knight?"

"I did not, my lady. Sportacus?"

He looked grim. "No."

"Ziggus, I need to speak to Sportacus alone." Sportacus looked at her as Ziggus bowed and left.

"First, I wish you to know that I bear you no ill will for my boldness last week and I thank you for not embarrassing me more than I had already done to myself."

"Thank you, my lady. It means a lot to me."

"But, this purple knight... Your face tells me you know something. It is that same look in your eyes I have been seeing since you first arrived. I think it's time you are up front with me. I do not want to compromise my land or the people in it. What are we up against?"

Sportacus took a deep breath. She had been very kind to him and he decided to tell her what he could. "My lady, what I am about to tell you, you must keep an open mind. And it is the truth. As you know, I am not from around here."

"Yes. You are from the North Sea."

"Yes, but... from the future. LazyTown of the future. The sword somehow came to me and brought me to you. I was sent here to do something and I think it was to defeat the purple knight. I do not know when or how or why." He proceeded to tell her the history of the blue and purple Knights. She just looked at him. "LazyTown is my home. I have a little girl and a woman I am going to marry. I miss them so much. I will stay and protect LazyTown until whatever my task is to complete." She moved back and sat down. She was quiet for a long time.

"My lady?"

"I find myself conflicted. Your tale is seems far fetched but I find myself believing you. So, you will leave me one day?"

"Yes, but not before I know the purple knight is no longer a threat to you. I promise."

"And if it compromises the return to your beloved?"

"I will find my way back to her. We always find our way to each other." She nodded but she was sad. He walked over to her and took her hands. "I will protect you."

"It's not that. I know it is selfish of me, but I can't help but hope that something keeps you here with me. I know it is wrong and I can't help my feelings for you, but know this. You are loved here as well."

Sportacus was taken aback. He wasn't sure what to do. After a moment he spoke. "Thank you. I will always be your friend."

She collected herself. "I have a gift for you." She got up. "Follow me." She took him to the far side of the castle and motioned for him to look. His eyes widened. "The castle of the blue night. I had them make it while we were gone. If anyone deserves it more, it's you. I feel safer that you are watching over us."

Sportacus just looked and realized something. History was being made. "I don't know what to say. Thank you!"

"Thank you, my blue knight. Go and see if it is all you require. Then please dine with Ziggus and myself tonight."


Sportacus went to the castle and looked around. He stared at it, taking it all in. He was amazed that he was a part of history and he was making it here as well. He was getting closer to going home. All he could think about was holding Elena and Loquia back in his arms. It was becoming painful to be away from them. Each passing day he was becoming more anxious as things were starting to unfold.

He walked outside and took in the air around him when he got a strange feeling. He could almost feel Elena. He knew her emotions and feelings were powerful, but even through time itself? He closed his eyes and concentrated and thought three words. 'I love you.' He hoped, somehow, she could hear him.


Elena went back up to the land where the castle once stood as she had everyday. It had disappeared a while ago from the land and the book. As she walked around she got a sense that things were on a balance. It could go one way or the other and all she could do was wait. She closed her eyes and thought of Sportacus, sending him a piece of her heart to let him know they were waiting. Then she heard something that made her stumble backwards into a tree.

"I love you." It echoed quietly. She placed her hand over her chest as her eyes filled with tears. She breathed a sigh of relief. He was going to come home soon. She could feel it. "I love you."


Prince Greedle was dining when one of his guards burst in. "My lord! I have news!"

He set down his food and took a drink of his wine. "It had better be good. After everyone has managed to be defeated by the blue knight, you all are lucky I don't hang the lot of you."

"I followed the lady's caravan to King Acrons castle and there is another who went up against the blue knight. A purple knight. They are equal in strength. When he left, I followed him. He has a witch at his side and no love for the blue knight."

"Interesting...I think it's time we extend an invitation to this purple knight. It seems we have something in common."

"But my lord, the purple knight destroys all in his path."

"Then we will give him incentive not to. Find him and bring him to me."
