Into the Underworld:
"Aiden, what the hell are you doing?" Nick questioned as he and his fellow Rangers began to sink into the ground. Udonna looked on as she tried a counter spell to bring them all back to the surface world. Claire tried tugging on Madison's raised arms, but it was no use. Aiden's eyes glowed a creepy shade of gray and her lips quivered as she continued to repeat the spell that had already taken effect. In a matter of seconds, Claire's hands were empty as Madison, Nick, Xander, Chip, Vida and Aiden were all sucked into the underworld.
"Udonna, what can we do?"
"Go and find Merlin and the Lady of the Lake. Tell them what has happened." Claire ran out of Rootcore and into the city.
As their bodies began falling through the nine hells, Aiden placed her hands at her sides to fall through faster. The Rangers soon followed suit so as to not fall behind. When they had arrived at the bottom, everyone had a stunned look on their face.
"Did she just…?" Chip asked in a whisper. Looking around, the Rangers saw the familiar minions of the underworld. Aiden turned to face her peers. She pointed to a tunnel on the left where she knew that Necrolai would be. Then, they all understood why they were in that dark and dismal place.
"Let's go." Nick said as he led his team through the tunnel.
"I can't believe that this was the 'easy' way." Xander whispered to himself.
"Aiden? She's alive?" Marty asked surprised. Claire nodded. The last time I saw that child was centuries ago. I have no recollection that the demon angel walked among us.
"And she took the knights into the Underworld?" Lisa Marie asked and again Claire nodded.
"You've got to come to Rootcore now! Udonna needs you both to bring them back to the surface world!" Claire exclaimed. Lisa Marie looked to Marty and both agreed. The wizard, the lady, and the apprentice began to run towards the forest. When they had arrived, Udonna was searching for the Book of Dark Spells.
"Sorceress, stop!" Marty exclaimed as he, Lisa Marie, and Claire entered Rootcore.
"We are here now Udonna."
"Thank you."
It wasn't long before the Rangers found the unguarded room. Necrolai was heard bragging to Koragg about how she killed Udonna and made away with the remainder of humanizing spell. In the room, the search for the piece of parchment had begun.
"Where is it?" was the question on everyone's mind. It's not here. Aiden thought. Could it be with the Vampire Queen? Aiden opened the door to the room and made a quiet disappearance into another tunnel where she followed the voice of Necrolai. When Necrolai had finished her story, she presented the remainder of the spell to Koragg.
"The girl remains a human angel who is still able to cast spells of her own Necrolai."
"Shut your trap Koragg! You know as well as I that—" Necrolai watched the piece of parchment disappear before her eyes.
"What sorcery is this?" Necrolai growled. Aiden held the parchment and ran towards her friends who were outside the room.
"Where were you?" Nick asked angrily. All Aiden did was show the parchment in hand and she began to run. The five knights began to run after her. Their footsteps were heard throughout the tunnels. Necrolai and Koragg teleported themselves to the place where their nemesis were already approaching the surface world.
Once their bodies crept through the floor of Rootcore, Udonna was given the piece of paper. Aiden crossed her arms in confidence. Marty took the young knights into a separate part of Rootcore so that Udonna could cast the spell. When they were out of sight, Udonna said those sweet words that Aiden desperately wanted to hear:
"Mireia kotz voz." Aiden opened her mouth and sound for the first time came through.
"Udonna?" her voice was raspy and soulful. Aiden embraced Udonna and whispered a 'thank you' into the sorceress' ear. When Udonna was released from the embrace, she began scolding Aiden who just bowed her head. Udonna's voice was heard through the walls of the next room. Lisa Marie emerged from the room where Marty took the rangers. Aiden looked at the famous Lady of the Lake and greeted her with a bow.
"My Lady."
"Arise Reaper." Aiden rose with a bowed head. She hated that side of her. Sure she was the righteous heir to Camelot, but because of her 'gift,' she was also death's reincarnation.
"I hate what I am." Aiden mumbled. Lisa Marie tilted her head so that their eyes would meet.
"You had no choice. Your power is legendary and you are able to pass on that power to those who least expect it."
