It was now the week before Christmas, and in the kitchens of their castle hme, Deadly was helping Crystal, Dreadly and Kaley bake cookies for Christmas especially for a certain visitor on Christmas Eve, which was making Dreadly very excited and nervous in case she wasn't on the Nice list despite Deadly telling her that Santa did show discretion along with updating his lists, so maybe the cookies might help butter him up, making Dreadly unsure.
"Ferdy might not like that idea, uncle, you know?" Dreadly said to him, making Deadly curious about who she was talking about, until Kaley had told him walking in after smellimg the smells of cookies baking, making Deadly chuckle at his older daughter's sweet fang which waslime his at times.
"I'm sure Ferdy won't mind what we're doing, since Santa does lovecookies." Kaley told Dreadly feeling a headache not wondering why, unaware a visitorwasin the Goblin City that had the residents confused, because she looked like their queen in waiting making Deadly quite amused seeing Kaley leaving with Crystal going after her just in case hoping this did not involve Tex.
"Woah, she does look like you, except she's wearing a tiara, is she a clone?" Crystal whispered to Kaley hearing the other light-blue furred and haired girl nervous because this was not her Labyrinth, and staring at Crystal which made Kaley curious wondering if the stranger was alright, knowing what it was like to be anxious.
"It's alright, but where did you come from, and why're you wearing a tiara?" Kaley asked making the newcomer smile shyly.
"I'm a queen back in my Labyrinth, and my name is Kaley, only your Crystal is older." she said to them, making Crystal realise something.
"I think she's you, a you from another dimension lime Endgame, we should bring her to the castle, because uncle Deadly and Dudley won't believe this, but we should make her feel comfortable." she said softly, making Kaley agree, telling her alternate self to come with them to the castle seeing her follow them to the castle seeing her eyes widen at Deadly chasing after a messy Dreadly, making Crystal giggle.
"We should wait, as that's gonna take a while, Dreadly doesn't like to get clean." she said.
Later, Deadly was very surprised hearing Crystal introduce the visitor that had been causing quite a stir was an alternate version of his older daughter hearing her say she needed to get home, before her kids worried about her, making Deadly surprised yet curious.
My Crystal, Deadly and Dudley are little and my kids, which I adopted, they might be freaked if I can't get back to my Labyrinth." Queen Kaley told them making Kaley very impressed by her alternate self, wondering how she had gotten here in the first place.
"My magic wore out and needed to recharge, so that's why I came to your Goblin City, I hope I didn't cause trouble." she replied making them understand, relievecthat Dreadly, Harmony and Melody were asleep right now, because they would not compperhend this, or be confused making Queen Kaley smile.
"Hmmm, I have a plan!" Crystal said makimg Kaley giggle at her impression, wondering what it was, seeing everybody looking at the magenta-furred girl
"Queen Kaley's magic might still need to charge, but being King, Uncle Deadly can send her home, to her Labyrinth." she said making them impressed by her thought guessing it couldwork, making Sarah impressed by her niece seeing Deadly focusing, while magic unleashed from his light-blue skinned hands creating a portal that led to where Queen Kaley came from, seeing her go through, as it closed after that.
"That wasquite an exciting day, meeting your alternate self, we probably rocked her world." Deadly told Kaley seeing her nod.
Crystal knew her cousin wasthinking about what had happened today, realising they had to calm the many citizens of ghe Goblin City down, after Queen Kaley had confusedthem, going to do that, because Deadly was tired after everything, especially casting a powerful portal spell, letting him be, seeing Bentley cuddlimg him making Kaley smile, as she and Crystal left.
"You went to another world which is like ours, but different, mommy?" Crystal asked Kaley making her giggle.
It was later and Queen Kaley had returned to her Labyrinth, when it was her older daughter, Crystal's bedtime, so she was telling her where she haddisappeared to, which made her eyes widen in curiousity, wanting to know what this other world her mom had visited was like making Kaley unsure, in case it startled her, being so young.
"You'll find out one day, if you find yourself there, get some sleep, alright?" she said, kissing the magenta-furred girl's forehead seeimg herlying on her side near the night-light leavingher room, .
"Challenge accepted." Crystal said drifting off into sleep, dreaming of what this otherworld was like.
