Chapter 50
Friday, came all too quickly for Henry and Poseidon sanity.
Kat and Tamora along with Henry Jr were able to buy some new clothes in San Fransico for the party before Friday and they took them back to the island and didn't touch them until Friday morning arrived.
Kat and Tamora were the last of three to get changed and with the Mitchell siblings ready Ms Frizzle drives the Magic School Bus back to San Fransico so the three can go to the party.
Henry Jr was disappointed that when he asked his parents if he could invite Melody to the party because it will be a good experience for her Poseidon refused immediately.
Paige the only one to know truly how to defeat Cronus and the sacrifice it will take and has decided the moment she knew the price that she would be the one to pay for it!
After the party, Paige found herself and her husband Henry at the beach part of the island.
Husband and wife are alone sat down on the sand cuddling together and Paige sheds tears knowing this would be the last time she and Henry would do this.
Henry notices his wife tears and wipes them with his hand before speaking.
"Paige honey what's wrong"? Asks Henry
"Oh, nothing Henry I'm just thinking about everything we've been through this past couple of years" Paige lied
"Yeah, we've been through a lot especially little Henry finding out he a Demi-God and his maternal grandfather wants to kill maybe worse," Says Henry
"Henry if we did find a way to defeat Cronus back in those books of prophecies and it required a great sacrifice would you be willing for the sacrifice to be made"? Asked Paige
"Yes, of course, Paige why did you find something" Spoke Henry
"I'm not sure but the one thing I am sure about is that I'll never stop loving you," Said, Paige, as she and Henry stand on their feet Paige then passionately kisses Henry before making a gesture telekinetic orbing him back to their camp
"Lord give me strength for what I'm about to do" Whispered Paige who then picks up a seashell and begins to speak into it.
Now back in San Fransico, the three Mitchell siblings arrive at the party where Tom best friend of Henry Jr and boyfriend of Kat meets up with the three.
The moment the three entered the party Tom and Kat went straight on the dance floor.
Just leaving Henry Jr and Tamora alone together talking.
"Well, this is fun," Said Tamora.
"I know so much fun in such a short time," Says Henry Jr.
"At least they're enjoying myself," Spoke Tamora.
"Yeah, I guess that's something," Mumbles Henry Jr.
Back on the beach Melody resurfaces and finds herself standing on the sand before Paige.
Paige knows what she about to do and she knows that she can't say goodbye to the people she loves because she knows they try and stop her!
Paige greets Melody kindly and hopes she agrees to her plan because if she doesn't it only means she sheds more tears.
"I can't believe you summoned me, Paige is Henry near" Asks Melody.
"No, he's at some party with Tom and the twins" Replies Paige.
"Shame I wanted to speak with him" Said Melody.
"What if I told you there was a way to defeat Cronus that will have virtually no casualties," Asked Paige.
"Really how" Questions Melody.
"Simple I need you out the way campsite," Spoke Paige before making a gesture Orbing Melody to the campsite then Paige sends a small blue orb like a sphere which expands covering the campsite in a forcefield then Paige glamours herself into Melody and orbs off the island.
Now, up in the Heavens, we have Cronus and all his followers.
Cronus is delighted to be able to sense Henry Jr about in San Fransico.
Cronus now decided that with him being able to sense Henry Jr's location teleports outside where the party is being held only to discover the protection spell!
"What the hell" Snaps Cronus.
"They sting protection spells don't they" Spoke Melody/Paige.
"Well, well if it isn't the little mermaid" Snarls Cronus as he turns to face Melody/Paige.
"Says the all-powerful titan who can't enter a small house," Taunts Melody/Paige.
"Not for long" Chuckles Cronus who then uses his magic to cause all the music to stop in the house and the front door to go flying into a wall.
"What are you planning" Asks Melody/Paige.
"Henry hear me come out and share what little moments you have with the girl you love" Shouts Cronus who then fires a bolt of lighting at Paige who glamoured as Melody.
"OW" Screams Melody/Paige as she gets hit by the lightning bolt she falls to the ground and the twins with Henry Jr hear this and run outside.
"Ah, Henry come to see your beloved die," Chuckles Cronus.
"Melody," Shouts Henry Jr as he runs towards Melody only to be grabbed by Cronus.
"Henry" The twins shouted.
"Heal Melody, Cronus let me go" Snaps Henry Jr as he fights to try and free himself from Cronus but in vain.
"She hasn't got long left," Said Kat as she and Tamora hold their hands out to heal the wound only for Melody/Paige to push their hands away weakly.
"Melody you have to let us heal you," Tamora spoke.
"No, this is it how it has to end this is how we beat Cronus," Replies Melody/Paige and within seconds the glamour Paige used ends revealing herself to her children and Cronus.
"MOM" Paige's children scream in unison.
"Paige, what are you doing here," Demands Cronus.
"Spoiling your plans somebody Henry loved had to die by Cronus's hand to give him the motivation and strength to kill him," Paige explains before she dies.
"No, mom wake up come on mom don't go," Paige's children die out.
"A pointless sacrifice," Says Cronus.
"You, MONSTER" Screamed Henry Jr who in pure rage releases his elemental power firing a blast of wind from within him at Cronus who is thrown into a wall before Henry Jr runs to his siblings.
"Let's kill him guys," Said Kat.
"No holding back," Spoke Tamora.
"You pay for that" Snapped Cronus who goes to fire another lighting bolt but finds himself falling to the ground in pain as branches and vines spawn inside his body and spread.
"Tamora give, it everything you have," Henry Jr order as he fired lighting, thunder a beam of fire at Cronus then Tamora blows Cronus up Kat then slows down Cronus's molecules giving Henry Jr and Tamora the time to destroy all of Cronus's molecules killing him perfectly.
When the three siblings finished Cronus off they returned to the island.
They soon held their mother's funeral and there was nothing but crying, to be heard.
They feel nothing but proud of how Paige gave her life up to protect her children.
But also a great sadness that they lost a mother, a wife and a sister and a great hero a few days ago.
The END.
