Sofia opened her eyes as the Wabac came to a stop. The door opening Sofia and Shuriki both stepped out to see that they were back in New York, right in the middle of Time Square .
"Look what you've done." Shuriki snapped, "Look what you've DONE! You've trapped us both in the other realm."
"I'm sorry," Sofia replied, "I didn't want it to come this, but I had to ensure you wouldn't harm my friends again."
"Oh, you foolish princess," Shuriki growled as she took out her wand. "The only thing you have ensured, is your demise." Shuriki fired a blast at Sofia causing her to quickly dodge out of the way. The blast struck a car and caused it to swerve into the middle of the road. Another car struck it, unable to avoid hitting the car, and a pile up soon unfolded.
"I'm going to finish you here you pathetic child. Then I'm going to take that machine of yours, go back to our realm, and finish what I started."
"If your going to fight me Shuriki go ahead, but these are innocent people you are hurting."
"You brought us here Sofia. It is YOU who are hurting them."
Shuriki fired another blast as Sofia, this one struck a building causing a gaping hole in the side. People started running in all different directions screaming. Two Police squads suddenly pulled up and pulled their weapons Shuriki. Shuriki just turned toward them and smiled.
"Wait lower your weapons you don't know what she's capable of." Sofia warned. It was to late however waving her wand she lifted the policemen in the air and tossed them through the window of a store.
Sofia had to get Shuriki away from the area. It was way to populated and people were getting hurt.
"I wish I was a bird!" Sofia screamed. Sofia's amulet instantly turned into a bird, not just any bird though, a falcon, the fastest of all birds.
"Hey Shuriki," Sofia taunted "You want me? Come get me!" Sofia took flight, going as fast as her falcon wings could take her in order to lead Shuriki away from the people. Sure enough Shuriki followed, using a spell that caused her to fly and started chasing after Sofia.
Back in Enchancia Amber was freaking out over how to get Sofia back. They had already changed the civilians back to their normal selves and was now putting their focus on getting Sofia back.
"You got to go after her, she is stuck out there alone with Shuriki."
"She took the Wabac!" Peabody replied "The one thing I know to make us travel through realms."
"There has to be another way right, Cedric you said there is another way."
"I did but there is never a gurantee we will even land in the same place she is. We were lucky with Elena but realms are huge and we would be landing at random."
"Well we have to do something, she's battling Shuriki alone!"
"There might be something I can do. It won't take us to her realm but it can help us see her location and communicate with her."
"Do it!" Amber replied. "Please Sofia is in danger."
"I will need a volunteer to me," Cedric replied.
"I will help," Peabody volunteered.
"Great now sit right in front of me, close your eyes and grab my hands." Peabody did just that. "Now I will need absolute quite from everyone . What I am about to do is a special kind of magic that doesn't include a wand. Not very many sorcerers know how to do it and I only learned it a few years ago but have never used it. Peabody are your eyes closed?"
"Yes,"
"Good now empty your mind of everything except my voice, we are about to attempt to get in contact with Sofia."
Everyone watched as Cedric and Peabody sat hand in hand, not daring to make a sound as they attempted to trace her whereabouts.
"Sofia, are you there?" Cedric suddenly spoke. "Can you hear us? If so let us see you? Let us here you, let us know where you are."
Still in falcon form Sofia was flying as fast as she could to get away from Shuriki when Shuriki fired a blast, striking Sofia and sending her falling from the sky. Quickly gaining enough control she glided towards some trees in the middle of Central park and turned back into human form.
"Sofia," Sofia suddenly heard the voice of Cedric's voice in her head, Sofia turned around wondering where Cedric's voice was coming from. "Are you there? Sofia?"
"Cedric where are you? How are you doing this?"
"I'm still in your realm my child. I am using a special form of magic."
"Sofia you need get out of there and get back to your realm." Mr. Peabody replied, Sofia was shocked to hear Peabody's voice.
"Mr. Peabody, but how?"
"It's a long story."
"I can't come back, not before I stop Shuriki. She needs to be taken down once and for all."
"But Sofia your no match to her," Cedric replied "Your magic is nowhere near her level."
Sofia looked around her surroundings, then suddenly she got an idea. "Maybe not, but I can outsmart her. Peabody, how were you and Cedric able to free us back in Enchanctia?"
"By mixing magic and science together."
"Then that's what I am going to do."
While inside Sofia's head Cedric and Peabody saw exactly what Sofia saw, a hornets nest in a tree above her.
"Is she really thinking?" Cedric asked
"That will definitely work."
Shuriki landed right in front of Sofia, Sofia turned back into a bird, ready to put her plan in motion.
"There's nowhere to fly now Princess," Shuriki growled taking out her wand.
"I wouldn't be so sure about that."
Shuriki fired her wand and Sofia quickly flew out of the way as the blast struck the hornets nest head on.
"Hey Shuriki, what happens when a hornets nest get's disturbed?" Sofia taunted.
"Oh no?" Shuriki gasped in realization. Suddenly hundreds of hornets flew out and started chasing Shuriki as she went running. Sofia quickly flew into trees and turned into a skunk as she put her next idea into motion.
"Those hornets won't stop her forever," Peabody replied
"No but it will slow her down enough for my next idea."
"Which is?" Cedric asked
"I have been many different animals during my years with this amulet and there is one in particular with a odor so potent it will stop anyone dead in their tracks.
"Is she thinking?" Cedric asked
"Oh yes I am." Sofia smirked as she ran into a group of five skunks in the middle of the park.
"Hey I need you to do something very important for me," Sofia spoke up.
"Is that a pink skunk?" One skunk asked.
"Must be a rare species, or mutation," A female skunk replied "My dad had a cousin who was albino."
"No, actually I'm a princess, this amulet let's me transform into any creature."
"You have a magic amulet who can let you turn into animals? How?"
"It's a long story but I need your help, there is a evil sorceress after me and I need you to do something."
"Anything for a fellow skunk."
"She's not actually a real skunk Steve," The female Skunk said.
"Well she's a honorary one Kara!"
Shuriki stormed across central park wand in hand, her skin was covered in stings, and her hair was all over the place due to all the running she had to do to escape the hornets. Now she was more determined than ever to take that annoying princess down.
"Hey Shuriki!" Sofia out. Shuriki turned to see Sofia standing in the middle of a field.
"You think your clever don't you?" Shuriki growled "You just made your fate that more horrifying."
"I wouldn't be so sure," Sofia replied "You see, you walked right into my next trap."
"Your next what?" Shuriki looked down and saw herself surrounded by skunks.
"Okay Skunks," The skunk named Steve said "Aim, and fire!"
Before Shuriki could react she was getting sprayed over and over again from all angles. Cedric and Peabody couldn't help but laugh at what they saw from inside Sofia's mind.
"What's so funny?" James asked Amber as everyone looked on. Amber just shrugged.
Sofia then shot a blast from her own wand sending Shuriki flying into a tree. Walking up to where Shuriki laid Sofia pointed her wand towards her victoriously as she stood over her.
"Your finished Shuriki, it's over."
"Oh no, not even close." Grabbing her wand Shuriki flew towards the clouds as Sofia looked on not knowing what to do. Suddenly Shuriki caused a powerful wind that swept across the entire city of New York. It was strong enough to cause cars to topple over, houses to crumble, and trees to get uprooted from their branches. Sofia had to dig her heels in to avoid getting swept away.
"Shuriki stop!" Sofia pleaded.
"I didn't want to do this Sofia, but you've left me no choice! You care about the innocent so much, you can be blown away with them."
"Sofia get out of there!" Peabody screamed.
"I have to stop Shuriki. She's destroying your home."
"You need to think about your own safety right now. We can stop Shuriki together as a team later."
Sofia turned to the right and heard a woman scream as a tree fall on top of her and her daughter, trapping them under the branches. Sofia closed her eyes as she remembered this was everything she was trained to be a protector for, moments like this. She couldn't abandoned these people, she had to stop Shuriki now. And she had one last trick up her sleeve. There was one thing still powerful enough to stop Shuriki.
"I wish to be a dragon!" Suddenly Sofia turned into a large and powerful dragon and charged Shuriki. Before Shuriki could react Sofia grabbed her in her talons and flew off, causing Shuriki to drop her wand along the way, rendering her defensless.
"Peabody is there any realms that are inhabital?"
"Um realm thirty eight. It's basically ice. Why do you ask?" Suddenly Peabody eyes widened as he knew what Sofia was planning. "Wait Sofia you can't."
"It's the only way Peabody."
"But you won't be able to come back to your world."
"Neither will Shuriki."
"Sofia!" Cedric started to protest.
"Cedric, tell my family I'm sorry, and I love them."
Flying to the Wabac Sofia dropped Shuriki with enough force to knock her out. Turning back to human Sofia leaned over and started the Wabac and punched in realm 38. Sofia bailed just as the top closed sending Shuriki and the Wabac away for good.
"Good bye Shuriki." Sofia sighed as the dangerous winds stopped. It was over, Shuriki was gone. Along with her only way home.
Shuriki awoke as the Wabac landed in the middle of a frozen wasteland.
"What?" Shuriki gasped. Checking the Wabac she noticed that is had completely frozen to the point where it wouldn't run. Which meant she couldn't leave, she couldn't go back to her realm and get her revenge. She was stuck here for good.
Shivering due to the cold Shuriki wrapped her arms around her waist as she screamed "CURSE YOU SOFIA!"
Cedric and Peabody ended their spell and turned to the royal family once Shuriki's threat was gone.
"Shurki is gone, so is the Wabac!" Peabody explained "Sofia is stuck in my world with no way to get back home."
"What?" Everyone gasped.
"Cedric you can get her back, you have a spell that can bring her back right?" Amber asked.
"I… I will try."
Next chapter will be the grand finale. Yes I have once again left you on a cliffhanger but I wanted to go for a ending similar to the series finale where Sofia was trapped in her amulet.
Originally though I wanted the final battle to take place in several realms including a realm similar to Wonderland. I had a funny scene planned out where Sofia and Shuriki ran into a Mad Hatter type character in the middle of their fight. At the end I kept the battle in one realm because I found the multi realm jumping to difficult and confusing and I would have had to think of multiple different ways to knock Shuriki back into the Wabac.
Hope you liked this and hope to see you back for the finale. Take care.
