My Chaotic Destiny?

by Aeonmaster Aeroza

Helena; our main character besides a few others, were offered to go back in time after she was freed of the Triwizard Tournament and took the chance to look for those related to her since her mother, was originally taken from the past by mysterious means. Now, this is all about Helena’s Journey to discover who she is and why she was meant to be. Helena and ?

3. Disenchant Arc Part 3

Not much to state but enjoy the chapter, but this does have my own touch to things.

I would also like to state that if this isn't done (the first part of the season that is), I will be using Season 2 as well (or by Netflix, for "Part 2" on the 20th of September, 2019).

Now things are going to get interesting as I plan to add my own twist once again into this chapter, and I do hope it was worth the wait for you all, so merely enjoy, and do note I plan to update all my lower fics (which includes this one as well) before resuming or even plan on redoing my higher ones (two particular fics comes into mind), and I will also be working on something for my "Morgana" Story (due to a certain holiday coming up as well).

Do expect this Fic to also be updated soon as well, truly, as after I correct this I plan to work on this and my others for major updates either late April or within May, as I have nothing to do atm and wanted to maybe make a few chapters or so in them all, and the mixed Poll will happen as well, at some point.

Warning: Two Episodes in One.

One Thing After Another, and Another! What to Kill is a Thrill!

---

A few days later (December 19th, of this time period 2014 in True Time):

Helena sighed to herself while being slightly amused while she saw Elfo playing with her child as King Zøg looked to be at least in a good mood today, and then looked to see her cousin was not, and the rest was also eating as well.

Luci was currently out with Hermione at fetching some ingredients for a project she plans to show her apprentice, and Kisara was out hunting her own breakfast while Albedo as she was half-amusing Bean even though she was disappointed about last night, stuck close to her cousin and made Helena tint while, at the same time, spoon-feeding her porridge.

While they were on their way home a few days ago, both Helena and Albedo spoke to each other and she found out being Mated to a demoness as such as she was, was both a blessing and a curse.

Until the bond settles between them, Albedo has to be close to Helena at partial times and doing this stuff for her (feeding her, as an example), she just wasn't used to. In secret though, Helena was glad that the bond didn't show the demoness or her other girls her true past as she was still recovering her memories, and to be honest… she hasn't been handling it, secretly.

Sure, she has Delphi and she adores her baby girl, and the loves of her lives alongside what is currently going on, but she has yet to speak about her true abuse and what went on from her past, and how it mentally affects her as, secretly to that as well, she had a small sometimes recurring nightmare about a certain event with both the former professor and her uncle, last night, and was mostly hiding the facts from her Mates and cousin as Daphne even asked earlier if she was alright to which she let it slide.

"I love living where I work. I never have to leave. And I never have to work. And people have to do what I say," Helena and Bean then heard their Uncle/Father stated to himself as they also saw he had a full roasted whole chicken with mashed potatoes and gravy from last night, for breakfast, alongside a side of peas, "Get me some corn. More gravy." He then stabs the chicken with his fork of sorts, and held it up while bragging to Bean, and the latter rolling her orbs at him for, "Bean, you ever see a guy eat a whole chicken?"

"Yes, yesterday, you." Bean states to him while still showing a hint she was disappointed and he shrugged while stating to mostly himself since Bean was eating her flapjacks the cooks were taught to make by Helena, earlier, while he was recalling it, "Oh, right." He chuckles before he clears his throat a few times from Helena still not believing he can still eat a whole chicken with also eating the bones, "These bones are getting caught in my throat."

He looked at the bus boy then and stated to him, "Fetch me some water." The busboy servant for today did as told while in a few minutes, disgusted Helena a bit by the color of said water, and King Zøg also noticed while stating mostly to himself, "I know I don't hydrate as much as I should, but is this what water's supposed to look like?"

"It's fresh from the local well, Sire," Odval told him before he paused and added as it seems the bus boy was going to say it, "I've already summoned the plumber." The King nodded while telling him then, "Good. I'd like to tell him I'm disappointed in his work…. I'm disappointed in your work."

"Thank you! That's the nicest thing you've ever said to me!" A person that the teens knew was the plumber himself stated to the King before King Zøg used the lever, and sent him down to his doom, and he merely shrugged by Helena's look and Albedo secretly didn't mind as the plumber was a servant, and he suffered from his actions.

"Trying to get me to drink this water like I'm some kinda idiot," King Zøg states to himself in a grumble of sorts while holding onto the goblet still, "What is this, my first rodeo?" He paused before asking to himself as Bean rolled her orbs, and Helena only blinked alongside Albedo by his actions, "What's a rodeo? What were we talking about? Man, I'm thirsty." Did he really just drink that? Helena only thought to herself as she then saw her Uncle groan and eventually a few minutes or so later, they were all outside as he was being carried onto a so-called ambulance wagon with Oona going with him alongside their son, as he finally complained, "Oh, I'm dying over here. Oh, why did I behead everyone with a medical license?"

"We take Zoggy to a spa where I get waited on hand and foot," Queen Oona tells mostly Bean to have Helena question her cousin and everyone at this bit of news as she stated rather cheerfully of sorts back in reply, as Hermione showed up with Luci as they were getting ready to leave, "Stay as long as you can, even if it takes the whole weekend. People rarely recover before Saturday night." Though near the end of her words, she held her dad's hand.

"Okay…" King Zøg began to tell Bean, "But there better not be any funny business while I'm gone." They all then saw the jester walk by on some sticks and stated, "You can count on me, Sire." King Zøg nodded with a small wince and made Odval and Helena blink as Bean was also surprised by his words, and Albedo hid a smirk at this sudden development, "And the rest of you, too (groans) Helena, you're in charge while Odval supervises… Keep both of your eyes on Bean and her weird friends."

Odval stunned Helena as she never seen him without his hat as he was indeed bald, but he had an extra eye, and she hid a giggle as Delphi was wide-eyed at that but they heard Elfo state while seeing the Advisors look to that, "Oh, neat. I'm gonna name them Winky, Blinky, and Soul-Stealer." Odval placed his hat back on his head while stating to him firmly, "Please don't name my eyes."

"Hey, little guy," the King states to Elfo, "If I find so much as a misplaced hair when I get back, I'll cut off your arm." Elfo then took a small step back while explaining and puzzling King Zøg and a few others, "Okay, but not my lucky arm." Curious, the King then asked, "Which one's your lucky arm?" Elfo raised his right arm, "Okay, fine, both of them."

The wagon then began to leave as Luci stated while Helena gave him a look for as Delphi she overheard asked Hermione what the curse word was as Daphne also showed up and stood next to Albedo, "Come on. Go. Don't let the drawbridge hit your ass on the way out."

Helena and mostly Bean and Co. then blinked as Luci got kicked by Odval as he explained to him and everyone present then, "The King may be ill, but we mustn't let this grave occurrence weigh down our somber hearts." As the Royals were getting close to where they were nearly gone, Helena was puzzled by the growing excitement of the crowd with Hermione rolling her orbs as Daphne gave Albedo a look for slapping her backside, slightly, "We must carry on and take comfort in prayer…" Odval then let out a laugh, "Oh, I've got to keep it together until he's out of the gates, at least."

Elfo and Bean then cheered and was then followed by the crowd before they dispersed while the bridge was being raised.

Later on as Daphne took Delphi for reading lessons with her and Hermione to start the lesson with her apprentice (Mop Girl) and also before she left, Daphne gave Helena a kiss on her lips while not seeing Albedo gave a narrowed look to that, secretly, Helena, Bean, Elfo, Luci, and Albedo was back in Bean's Bedroom as she was explaining things to them. "Okay, the one thing I do know is when your parents are out of town, that's when the fun begins… Now, if I was a normal kid, what would I do?"

"Mmm, throw a party," Luci states as he was on the fireplace mantle and Bean looked at him with being mixed of excited and impressed by that idea, "Man, I have wanted to throw one of those ever since they were invented five years ago."

"Wait. What are you guys doing? Zog said he'd cut off my arms," Elfo states in complaint at that before Bean tells him and, at the same time, trying to relieve him, and glanced at her cousin a few times to see she was confused by what she was planning to do and hid her laughter at seeing her hair was braided gently by Albedo on the sides of her head, "Sure, he said it… Did he mean it? We'll find out."

"Come on, man. Parties are where Heroes are born," Luci decided to add while coming over to the Half-Elf, "Deals are made, wallets are lost, people hook up." He then whispers then to get him perked up by Luci's next set of words, "Often the most regrettable hookups." Elfo chuckles to himself while standing on the couch and understood, "Oh. That's cool. That's cool. I can be somebody's regret." He said to himself before telling Bean then in a short answer to please her, "Yes!"

"Yes. Okay, do you guys realize what's happening?" Helena was still puzzled by Bean's words as she never experienced an actual party, since the one in her Third Year didn't count as she was passed out and not able to celebrate it, "For one night, we get to do whatever we want."

Luci gasps before stating to all of them in glee, "I'm gonna drink flaming grog from a baby's skull." Elfo then states to give him questioning looks by everyone, "I'm gonna drink milk out of my shoe." He then does drink it while explaining to them, as Helena and Bean was secretly disgusted by that alongside Albedo hiding it yet was as well, since she was silent while merely observing them, "I already had milk in there."

Bean then finally decided to ask Helena to make the girl blink at her question as she only crossed her arms with a look meaning, why aren't you excited but I gotta know still, "What about you, what did you want to do Hel?"

Bean blinked alongside her friends as Luci looked at Albedo warily as unseen by them, Albedo had a brief, dark-like look to that as when she slept next to her Mate, she gained all her memories and secretly reported some (not all), to her benefactor, and if she encountered those Mortals… They better watch it, "Um…" Helena hugged herself briefly while looking upwards as if it think, "I'm not sure as I never had an actual party I gone to or was invited…" she then sighed while giving them all a look though, "But I'm in charge of sorts by Uncle Zøg, and I just don't want to get too much pressure to myself on that."

Bean's eyes softened while coming over, and gently patted Helena on her back as Albedo didn't mind as they were family, but she was still getting used to the fact she has to share girls with Her Mate, "Hey, it's a first for you. So maybe you can do stuff while still watching us… More or less."

Helena nodded to that before she sniffed to confuse them before she sighed with a small smile and understood who she was talking about by her words, "It seems she just came back with one of the few types of meat I like… I do smell a great white shark among her kills."

After everything was done and said, Albedo was reluctant with Kisara (by Helena's orders) as their bond settled at last later on to the night as she, Bean and her friends were with the scribe, since she began to talk to herself, "Okay, first up, guest list: No Dreamland dudes… They're too scared of Zøg. Also, they're kinda plague-y and I just I can't deal with lips falling off when I kiss people right now."

"Oh. Sounds like Bean may prefer a mysterious stranger with olive skin and an unbridled sense of caution," Elfo chuckles while glancing at her as Helena was still eating her roasted shark on a nearby platter as they tried it, and liked how she spiced it with the right herbs.

"Bean, do you prefer Elfo?" Luci states while secretly hinting the obvious to her, which she didn't detect, "That's not what I meant." Elfo began to deny while Helena was amused as she knew what Luci did, "But do you? Don't answer unless it's yes." Bean ignored him on that while still thinking.

"Dude, decide what you want, drink till you have the nerve to go for it, then keep drinking so the inevitable rejection doesn't hurt so bad," Luci tells him while standing in the table within the Meeting Room that King Zøg uses, "What do you want?" Luci then rolled his orbs at the Half-Elf as he replied back shyly in mixed honesty and nervousness, "I guess I've always wanted to watch the sunrise with a girl I fancy."

"Ugh… Just say Bean. You want to watch the sunrise with Bean," Luci states in small complaint as Elfo states back to him then, "Well, stop saying what I mean."

Bean saw that Helena wanted to speak with her, and Luci nodded while waving her off as he and Elfo began to talk back at each other and once in the halls, Bean was going to ask a question before she blinked at seeing a rolled-up parchment of sorts was placed into her hands, "What's this?"

"I found that in a secret room the castle had, Bean… But I wanted to show you personally as I looked at it, and well… See for yourself." Bean was amused before her amusement was slowly going away to showing mixed disbelief with hidden, growing excitement by what she saw, and rolled it back up while asking her then, "Is this directions to a secret treasure in the Castle?"

"As far as I'm aware of, Cousin, and I, well, I… I was wondering if maybe we can add a scavenger hunt or something for the party as from what I heard, they were great things for parties?" Bean understood while inwardly pissed about knowing, in secret, some of Helena's past yesterday from both Daphne and Hermione (well, how much they knew as they didn't know all), and recalled they had parties anytime in her timeline and only just nodded while giving her cousin an assured look while perking Helena up at her words along with leading her away to oversee things, "Well, we could add this and I don't know what the reward would be… But let's see to it this be one of your best parties ever Hel."

Close to the end of the day, things were going smoothly from what Helena and her girls saw as Hermione was overseeing the food with Daphne while Albedo, reluctantly, was watching her Mate's Child as she was with Bean and her friends at the moment, and Kisara was once again hunting for more sharks as everyone was wondering what "Great Surprise Meatloaf" was all about, as Helena did give the recipe to the chefs.

Helena although was kinda surprised that Bean decided to use the Throne Room for said party, and there were tables filled with drinks and party food, and on the arc nearby an outhouse, was the three knights that were setting up instruments and she saw on the drum, as Bean did, was the title: The Pillage People, in bold green words.

"You guys have a band? I didn't know you were interesting," Bean states to the knights while being impressed as she saw Helena looked thoughtful for a moment or two, and the leading knight, their leader, states in reply while being honest as he was also tuning his guitar of sorts to what Helena figures it was as they also looked to have been medieval-like versions, "Right now we mostly play corn exchanges, but a lot of times, people look up from what they're doing."

"Wow, maybe someday you guys will play Cornchella." Bean says while impressed as Luci was nearby with some fire whiskey from Hermione (in secret), and was drinking the flask gently as Elfo came by while making Helena raise an eyebrow at seeing him having an odd, frilly thing of sorts around his neck, and chuckled while making Luci roll his orbs, "Oh. Hey, guys. Has the party started or is the kingdom's most eligible Bachelor already here?"

"I don't know. Has literally anyone other than you arrived?" Luci sarcastically states while looking Elfo up and down like he was an idiot, and Helena knew the two males were only play-mocking each other from seeing Elfo's mock-like glare wordlessly at him.

Bean, however, stated while she placed her hands on her knees and stated to what she saw, "Aw, I think he looks cute, like the Mayor of Babyville." Elfo disagreeing at her words replied back as he had his hands on his hips, to amuse Helena, as when he spoke he looked awkwardly away while crossing his arms, "Why do you always have to compare me to a cute baby? I'm a cute man."

"Aw, yes, you are," Bean disagreed back while tickling his cheeks while culling them as he was laughing, "That's enough… Stop… That's enough!" Elfo shouted at her to get Bean to take a few steps back while they then were puzzled as Helena was eyeing the stage and she turned to her cousin and blinked in slight surprise at the sudden idea, "Hey Hel… Didn't you say that during your starter ball you had at that school, from whatever a petition is to do so, that you and your friends sang also on stage?"

Helena only nodded while wondering where this was going, and didn't hear Luci state to Elfo quietly, this is going to be good, "Well, how about you join the band tonight and sing a song or two with them?"

Helena was kinda expecting this, plus she did want the party to go smoothly while knowing she was in charge and shrugged in a way that she didn't mind while giving her cousin a small smile, "Maybe… I do know a few songs that might get the crowd's attention," she paused before looking at the knights who looked interested at this, "And maybe they could have a few songs for their actions as well. I'm sure the songs won't be used for a long time from my own period anyways."

It was then Albedo appeared in purple flames while glancing at the group who jumped back slightly in small surprise as she looked at Helena to have said girl sweatdrop mentally yet was relieved, as despite Delphi being her child, she was a deep sleeper of sorts, "The Little One is tuckered out… But I couldn't help but overhear that you plan on singing to this 'Party'? Perhaps I can be of assistance to you, my mistress~." Helena though shivered of sorts as at the end of her newer mate's words, she felt like there was a hidden meaning in it.

Bean though rolled her orbs at the girl's attempt to mess with her cousin and allowed Helena and her to be themselves as, eventually, she, Elfo, and Luci were outside while seeing the decorations were also placed as well.

"Wow, lights." Elfo stats in awe as they came on thanks to Luci, and Bean nodded while being satisfied on that and stated to her two friends, "Okay, boys… Let's make this night so legendary, they caution children about it, and even make it fun for Hel."

"Lower the drawbridge!" She shouted to the keepers for that, and when it was lowered… There was no one there, "What the Hell?" Elfo states while confused as from what he figured, parties required people, "Uh, yeah, lower the giant painting of the countryside." Bean orders then to the guards while realizing what occurred, and when it was lowered, there were tons of people of sorts while they cheered as a random Gnome named Gallome asked mostly to Bean, "Is this Number One Castle Drive?" She only nodded while they cheered at that and entered the castle.

Things were going smoothly and very fun for Helena as she decided to perform her solo act, since the girls were busy as Hermione also went to see what her apprentice needed, and Daphne went to go help Kisara cook the food and prepare it, and Albedo, she sorta felt overwhelmed yet understood about her Mate's desire to stay and only made Helena blush of a comment she told her earlier, for a later time tonight.

She was currently near the bar area they setup earlier table as she saw her cousin came and tried to flirt with a nearby knight, "Hey, so, you gonna ask me to dance or what, huh?"

"Dance? Why, I'd be delighted," the knight states at not seeing her right away, "I love to dance- Whoa! You're King Zøg's Daughter." He then states after seeing Bean while the girl was herself, and Helena was sipping her drink while seeing that Bean was trying to explain things to him, "It's cool, man. He's out of town, so-" she blinked by his sudden words to interrupt her the , "Actually, sorry. I'm late for a crusade." The knight rejected her offer while Bean looked putout and sighed while seeing other girls asked and he accepted, and was dancing as well, "Why does everyone have to know me?"

Helena came over then while placing her drink next to her cousin, and Bean only gave her a look after, "Cheer up Bean, there has to be at least someone willing to dance or something with you."

Bean then shook her head while looking away from her and that concerned Helena as she sighed before heading to an area she knew, and debated on following her or not and shrugged as she did so as they planned to do the Scavenger Hunt after her performance, and she gave a signal to the leading knight while he nodded and gave the ok sign to keep going for a bit more.

Helena eventually found her cousin at the balcony nearby the Throne Room (after getting passed the crowd), and saw her sigh to herself and looked at an old, fat man in a chair that was passed out with a full glass next to him, "Did you wanna maybe dance?" Only hearing him snore she sighed and grabbed his unused drink, "No, me neither." She drinks it down while not seeing Helena was coming for her to maybe console her or something, and only watched as Bean was rejected from each person she encountered.

"312, 313-" Helena heard Elfo as he was counting while eating cheese before Luci groaned next to the Half-Elf, and stated to him in an obvious tone, "You're missing your chance, dude." Luci tolled his orbs as Elfo only replied back, "Oh, great, now you made me lose count."

Helena knew what the demon meant and he glanced while seeing her knowing look and decided to keep going at Elfo to maybe get the male a hint, "This is your moment. She's standing there alone…." he paused while glancing at the former cheese table that was empty, "You're all fueled up on cheese. Make your move, stupid!"

Seeing Bean was indeed standing alone and looking dejected, he stated in determination to the demon, "You're right… I'm gonna march up to Bean and say something that I'll figure out by the time I got there."

Helena though felt something was off a bit, but shrugged while drinking her drink as Luci walked and decided to sit near her at the other bar nearby as she asked the demon in wonder from watching both Elfo and Bean interact with each other, "You think those two have a chance?" Luci only shrugged back in reply as they both watched things.

Bean, meanwhile, was thinking to herself as this party idea was turning out to be bad for her, until she nearly got scared by the unexpected tapping on her left shoulder and turned, "Whoa! Elfo," she chuckles in a mix of relief it was only him as he smiled at her while standing on the table for a face-to-face height, and stated in a way he sorta understood, "Would you look at us, huh? A couple of wallflowers, standing over by the snack table eating chee-" she did a double-take while not seeing Elfo looked at the area nervously, "What happened to all the cheese? There were over three-hundred cubes over here."

Elfo then clears his throat while looking nervous, "Bean, Bean, Bean… hehe- Um, well, can I be honest with you?"

"Yeah, of course." Bean states to him while Elfo began to try and explain himself a bit, "When I left Elfwood, I had no idea why, but then, here, tonight, I feel like I finally know why… Um, Uh…" he groaned before chuckling at himself while Bean had his full attention, "I don't know how to say this… Ugh!" He grabbed the top of his head while Helena fused he was trying to speak his words to her cousin, from where she was and overhearing them.

"Go ahead. Say it." Bean blinked on confused mixed with being surprised by his words then, "I'm into big girls."

"What?" Bean then states to him while confused, still, with an eyebrow raised, and he sighed while trying to clarify his words to her, "Just hear me out. Before I left, I didn't have any idea that my size, my stature, was.. What do you call it?"

"Dinky?" Bean mostly guessed while Elfo now questioned her while stating a 'what' to her before speaking more while stuttering some of his words, "I don't know if I'd say 'dinky'... I guess what I'm trying to get at, and not so eloquently, but could you ever go out with a guy who's dinky?" Helena thought he did well with that before she sighed and handed Luci a coin for this world's currency by Bean's answer, and outcome, "Well, I have been drinking a lot tonight, so it might just be the grog talking, but, you know, I think maybe I-" a random partier Male then randomly states to get everyone's attention, "Oh, God, Vikings!"

"Let's burn this place down!" The Head Viking states with his sword out and pointing to them all as most of the crowd gasped. He was mostly a seven-foot-tall, blonde-haired and blue-eyed male that wore tattered shorts, a red tattered cape, leather boots, and a x-shaped leather harness that was attached by a bronze ring in the center of his exposed torso, and wore a helm with horns on the sides, "With our smooth northern dance style." He was then dancing as the crowd looked relieved with hints of excitement on their faces.

Helena sighed as Luci looked to the girl while stating in a smirk as he pocketed the coin, "Told ya so Hel… Though, it would be even funnier if things went south from here on out." Helena playfully glared at the demon who only grinned at her as she then shook her head as Bean abandoned Elfo (who looked a little dejected), and mingled with the others, "Luci… I just wanted Bean to be happy even though I'm having a blast, I feel like Bean wasn't until now."

Luci looked at the girl as he did sense she was more upright than normal, and perhaps was being honest with him as he quietly chuckled from her bringing forth a glass of cinnamon-flavored firewhiskey for him, this time, and joined him as they headed over to the throne chairs while agreeing with her, "I do admit it would rather be dull if Bean wasn't at all fun to hang out with, and perhaps you be right on that part Hel-Drake."

Helena looked at Luci puzzled before seeing him shrug a what-like look wordlessly back at her before watching things play out, until nearly ten or so minutes later, Elfo came back to them as he was stating to the two, even as Helena did half-agree things were taking a bit out of control then the ones she knew back at home, "Party crashers!"

"Uh, night's over! Tell your parents to pick you up-" Elfo began yet Luci was surprised it was Helena that stopped him and he sighed while stating to the Half-Elf, "Hey, chill out. This is Bean's party." They looked though as Helena was in disbelief from seeing her cousin was at the moment, riding a grey stallion female into the throne room while, at the same time, holding some grog in a glass mug, "Whoo! Horse at a party! Party horse rules!"

"Hey, nice… She drank her way out of depression like a pro," Luci states in an impressed tone to have Elfo give a brief glare at Helena as she only shrugged, and crossed his arms while standing near them with his arms crossed, and grumbled out, "Stupid lucky horse."

Helena though saw Daphne and Hermione were waving her over alongside Kisara, as Albedo winked at her near the music stage to know she was finally up, and stated to the two males to briefly confuse them by her words, "Hey guys, it seems you guys get to see how music back at home is played as I did think of a few songs that might impress everyone… Just watch," and she started walking to the stage.

With Bean though, the horse neighed and was starting to get irritated by her before that same viking stopped the female horse from doing, and at the same time, soothing her, "Whoa! Easy, girl." He then impressed Bean while neighing to calm the female stallion down and states to Bean while actually being impressed by her, "The horse has big, beautiful teeth. Like you." Bean thought that was an odd yet awkwardly sweet thing to say to her, especially in her current condition, "Your tooth is beautiful, too." The male Viking got a certain look Elfo didn't like yet before they could head over to the stage, everyone held onto their ears while also seeing the stage was different.

Helena looked sheepish from using an enchanted microphone she brought with her to the past and stated into it, as it managed to be perfectly pitched for everyone to hear her then, "Sorry about that, I was doing a soundcheck on this thing here… Anyways, I'm glad to see all of you enjoying your time here at my cousin's castle." At that, the crowd cheered at that while also roasting to her as Bean guessed while the Viking lowered her down, and the others, she was going to sing, "Now I want you all to get hyped up as after I sing a few songs for you all, we plan to do a Scavenger Hunt within this very castle itself!" That caused the crowd and the Vikings in the room to be impressed at that before a random partier asked loudly to her and also getting Helena to ponder that, while glancing at her girls and blood sister, "What's the prize then?"

"The prize, is um…" Helena blinks as Albedo came over with a I-got-this look, and states to them all with a hidden gleam to her orbs that only she and her two other soulmates saw, "The prize is a year's worth supply of free drinks and food at the famous 'Scepter Bar' within the land, and also a free trip to a secret location within you choice of friends or kin, along with a cash prize of an actual full bag of golden bars!"

Now, this gotten the crowd's attention as Bean looked at Helena and she only shrugged while gesturing to Albedo in a wordless way to state, she didn't plan this and was given back the microphone.

"Thanks, Alby…" Helena states to know Albedo may have caused problems while also at the same time, truly thanking her as she only gave her a gentle smirk on her face while coming back to the other girls as Helena looked at the knights as they nodded before blinking as she snapped her fingers bed the lights dimmed within the Throne Room, and states to everyone aloud, "Are you guys ready? Here we go!" She paused before stating to everyone as she snapped her fingers to return the lighting back, "I actually want to sing outside, so if everyone will follow me."

And they did while being curious as some of the visitors overheard the rumors of magicals being within this kingdom and they were all within the courtyard as even Helena blinked at the larger stage made while looking at the girl's who merely gestures with smiles as they joined her up there, and she did while giving them a brief kiss on her soulmates cheeks while going wide from Albedo kissing her fully on the lips (making Daphne and Kisara give the demon girl a look), and shook her head before seeing they climbed down and she impressed the crowd while she then snapped her fingers as fireworks shot up, and exploded into the sky as she shouted loudly, "Are you guys ready? This is one of many songs where I come from!"

The crowd cheered as Bean was rather impressed by her alongside the viking she gotten to know by the name of Sven (AKA the Head Viking for the Land Vikings), and Elfo was half jealous of this mixed with awed by Helena by her song, along with the others.

(Just so you know, this song was picked by Rowena, a fellow Author (Rowena Bensel), and is a rather matching choice as well as the other… Check out her work)

Helena began to dance as with a snap of her fingers, floating musical instruments she saved for her act tonight showed up, and began playing said music for her song as when she sang, she truly got everyone's attention as she swayed her hips as well, "There's only two types of people in the world. The ones that entertain, and the ones that observe!"

Helena then clapped her hands while going with the flow as an aura developed around her frame the girls were curious about as in another verse, three particular girls sneezed at once while blinking in confusion at sensing something or someone using their power, or close to it, on a larger crowd then their used to and was also pumping not only herself but also the crowd up. "Well baby I'm a put-on-a-show kinda girl! Don't like the backseat, gotta be first. I'm like the ringleader I call the shots (call the shots)," Bean blinked as she thought she saw another person with her cousin, just like the others, as they copied those words but merely listened to her song called "Circus" she chose, "I'm like a firecracker, I make it hot when I put on a show!"

Helena then began to dance in a way to make Daphne tint while seeing Kisara's smug look at guessing just like Hermione was as Albedo secretly withheld herself of going over there and jumping her Mate (who taught her those dances) as they were a mix of sultry, with freestyle. The crowd though was only cheering her on as she kept at it, and her magic acted up as well by causing illusions of her to appear, and dance alongside her in the background. "I feel the adrenaline moving through my veins! Spotlight on me and I'm ready to break. I'm like a performer, the dance floor is my stage. Better be ready, hope ya feel the same!"

The aura around Helena grew slightly brighter before pulse-like waves were sent skywards within the sky as not known to her while she sang, she was secretly summoning a few creatures without knowing, alongside one other, and the clouds in the sky were converging into one another as glowing, neon-like rainbow colors that awed the crowd of partiers, "All eyes on me in the center of the ring! Just like a circus! When I crack that whip, everybody goin' trip! Just like a circus! Don't stand there watching me, follow me. Show me what you can do! Everybody let go, we can make a dance floor, just like a circus!"

The illusions of her and Helena herself began to dance to the beat of her music as with a snap of her fingers, she managed to somehow use some of those clouds as cloud-like illusions of dragons that roared while flying below, and then heading back upwards, repeatedly, and merging back into the clouds as well, "There's only two types of guys out there, ones that can hang with me, and ones that are scared. So baby I hope that you came prepared! I run a tight ship so, beware. I'm like the ringleader! I call the shots! I'm like a firecracker, I make it hot! When I put on a show!"

Daphne was sorta worried as she, like the there and secretly few hidden within the crowd, saw something soon from a vortex of sorts out of the neon-clouds, and few others yet also paid attention as Helena then began to spin in place as her illusions were freestyle dancing as the beats ramped up, as when she was dancing at this point, she was letting out waves of a mix of silver and golden most of sorts, "I feel the adrenaline moving through my veins! Spotlight on me and I'm ready to break. I'm like a performer, the dance floor is my stage. Better be ready, hope that ya feel the same!"

Helena shocked most of the crowd alongside intriguing Sven (the Viking Male that Bean was trying to flirt/sleep and stuff with) at the sudden development as her aura covered her frame and she was changed into her true self (as the entire time she was her Human Form Self), and was dancing even faster while her body still gave off that odd mist effect, and despite the slight transformation, she still kept the crowd's attention as she sang and this time without knowing, dancing within the air as rays of light came from the clouds and were ribbons that swirled around her before taking shapes within the sky into objects or animals, "All eyes on me in the center of the ring, just like a circus! When I crack that whip, everybody goin' trip, just like a circus! Don't stand there watching me, follow me. Show me what you can do! Everybody let go, we can make a dance floor, just like a circus!"

Everyone was dancing to the beat as Helena then made Hermione and those that knew her did an air guitar solo before seeing a conjured guitar was indeed made by the lights and was stringing it alongside the music for a few moments before she twirled as it vanished, and an illusion-like platform of a disk and when she was tapping, it was glowing a random color each time, "Let's go! Let me see what you can do, I'm runnin' this (like, like, like, like a circus)! Yeah! Like what (like, like, like, like a circus)? All the eyes on me in the center of the ring, just like a circus! When I crack that whip, everybody goin' trip, just like a circus! Don't stand there watching me, follow me. Show me what you can do! Everybody let go, we can make a dance floor, just like a circus!"

Down below her, her illusions were then dance-fighting with each other mockingly while at the same time, performing well with her voice and song as illusionary animals were conjured that was indeed in relation to a circus, was dancing along while some even held the instruments and played.

Helena was then dancing downwards while hopping from one new platform to the next until she was back on stage, and was dancing in a way that Albedo must have guessed and her girls knew, she took dance lessons during her second and third year from someone who requested it. "All eyes on me in the center of the ring, just like a circus! When I crack that whip, everybody goin' trip, just like a circus! Don't stand there watching me, follow me. Show me what you can do! Everybody let go, we can make a dance floor! Just like a circus!"

And after a few swirls and everything, the music stopped and so did the other things while Helena had her head down while back to her human look, and panted with her eyes open then in realizing she may have overdone it if the silence of the crowd- She jumped as everyone quickly cheered at her at a performance well done and was awkwardly standing in place before her girls and blood sister came up, and decided to help her out.

After nearly an hour or so, she performed a few songs and others until she decided to tell everyone (while disappointing them) of her singing a final song she finds personal about herself, and this secretly worried everyone that knew her while at the same time, secretly also surprising them she was going to do this.

Helena took in a deep breath as the area was dimly lit up alongside the lights Luci made, began to somehow change into beams at her location to make a stage-light, perfectly, and when she sang, some parts of the song was a little longer as well, "This is a story that I have never told~... I gotta get this off my chest to let it go. I need to take back the light inside you stole~!" Helena was gesturing with her eyes closed with the song as if she was truly deep into it.

The music then began to do an upbeat as she opened her eyes while showing a bit of attitude while her eyes were glowing, and Bean and those that knew her, sadly admitted inwardly to themselves as, despite her song choice, she was pretty good at signing, and was also singing as loud and passionately as she could, "You're a criminal, and you steal like you're a pro! All the pain~ and the truth I wear like a battle wound! So ashamed~, so confused~. I was broken and bruised! Now I'm a warrior~!"

Helena while not knowing, surprised everyone as she was then dancing in place while not only letting her heart out, but they saw the clouds return while forming into two different shapes: Two dragons of sorts, "Now I've got thicker skin! I'm a warrior~! I'm stronger than I've ever been, and my armor, is made of steel, you can't get in I'm a warrior and you can never hurt me again! Out of the ashes, I'm burning like a fire! You can save your apologies, you're nothing but a liar~. I've got shame, I've got scars that I will never show~!"

While she was signing her heart out still, the two clouded dragons became black and white before fighting each other in beams of illusions light and darkness, and behind her without knowing and also secretly confusing everyone except those that knew her to loss Bean briefly off of seeing a few memories somehow, of her abuse that the girls also didn't know about being played, "I'm a survivor in more ways than you know, 'Cause all the pain~ and the truth~ I wear like a battle wound! So ashamed, so confused. I'm not broken or bruised! 'Cause now I'm a warrior!"

They then saw the dragons shift into two people: The White being Helena herself, and The Black Dragon being a shaded figure as not known to her, this was one of many secretive parts of her prophecy she is truly under, and they fought until they leapt back as a fake, glowing vortex of sorts appeared within the sky, and a more menacing dragon-like cthulhu beast of sorts roaring at not only them, but also at the crowd as well. "Now I've got thicker skin, I'm a warrior~! I'm stronger than I've ever been~ and my armor, is made of steel~, you can't get in~! I'm a warrior!"

Helena was dancing to the beat of the music playing than while secretly (without her knowing), she was truly crying tears to worry her girls and kin over, and intrigued Sven even more at knowing what those very tears are as she was back to her true look once again, and the three dragon-like silhouettes merged as waves of energy discharged while dismissing them into the area and crowd to excite them as she sang, "And you can never hurt me~, there's a part of me I can't get back! A little girl grew up too fast~. All it took was once, I'll never be the same! Now I'm taking back my life today! Nothing left that you can say~ 'cause you were never gonna take the blame anyway! Now I'm a warrior~!"

It seems the music was going to it's last bit for Helena as she was then moving as from the sky, illusions of meteors that were about the size of basketballs, struck randomly while avoiding her as well before each one exploded in an aura of color, "I've got thicker skin, I'm a warrior~! I'm stronger than I've ever been and my armor is made of steel, you can't get in! I'm a warrior~! And you can never hurt me again! No, oh yeah, yeah~! You can never hurt me again!"

Helena blinked as the area then became normal after the effects began vanishing, and it was silent for a mere moment before everyone began cheering at her.

Helena though hid some surprise as she was crying somehow before she got glomped by her girls while Hermione only chuckled in place while sending a note from her wand to Helena's back pocket she was heading back to train Marabelle on how to cast the levitation charm.

Daphne was with Kisara at the moment were out as Daphne nearly fainted somehow to even confuse Helena as she was perfectly fine once they all came back inside while the party resumed, and she was preparing the List for the Hunt as such as it oddly required odd items in order to locate the chest while burning them.

However, she did see Bean was with the one Viking male… Sven if she recalled overhearing his name from some introductions as she was also sipping red wine, and saw Elfo was at the Throne Chairs while she was going to ask her about the list, but withheld her words by witnessing things then, especially since Luci climbed on top of her and was on her shoulders and not knowing he made Albedo's right eye briefly twitch before she was resuming her duties at the bar area near the stage, as punishment, by Helena.

"Ah. Um, please don't sit in the King's Chair," Elfo began while looking worried as Sven indeed sat in the King's Chair while Bean rolled her orbs at the Half-Elf, "It's for his royal ass only." The blonde Viking only chortled at that while responding back to Elfo, even gesturing he didn't care at all, "Ha! Kings! I fear no Kings. Queens either... Dukes kinda give me the willies, but Kings? Bah!"

Helena was amused by Elfo's sudden pout before seeing Bean try to nervously flirt with the man, "Hi… You seem unafraid of Kings and probably have other qualities." He looked prideful at those words while looking at Bean, "I am also funny guy because inside there is pain, even though we have met I find thy attractive." Elfo glowered at that while Bean hid a tint before stating to Sven then, "Welcome to my party."

"So this is your Castle?" Helena saw Sven looked to her cousin in wonder before stating while getting Bean to look left and right while thinking of something to state, "You're not like some stuck up Princess, are you?" Bean did have that sudden idea look while telling him then, "Did I say my party? I meant thy party. I'm all about possessive pronouns. They be the latest thing, does not thee know?"

"Where I come from, we don't possess our pronouns," Sevn admits to her while getting up from the chair and adjusting his viking hat, "We let them run free, like the majestic snow chimp." Helena heard of that animal from the books back at her school, and heard them both chuckle and decided to improvise while she heard Bean ask him then, "Can I show you around?" Sven chuckles back mockingly, and she didn't hear what Elfo stated, but he quickly took off somewhere.

She stopped Bean and Sven, and the teen girl was confused before seeing Helena wink at without eh male seeing, while she had a paper in her hands, "Your Sven, right?" The Viking man nodded gently at her while wordlessly looking at her as if to state, where are you going with this, "Do you think you and my handmaiden, Bean, could perhaps find me something together while she's giving a tour of the castle?"

Nice cover for me Hel, Bean thought briefly while Sven shrugged and stated to Helena then as he took the paper as it only contained a few items he raised an eyebrow at briefly, "I can do so, My Lady, as I take it you are the Princess Helena of Dreamland?" Helena only nodded while looking around the party and seeing it might be time to start soon, "When you get those items and placed them right here," she pointed on the map that Bean saw was near her room, "We could officially start the scavenger hunt..." she paused while shrugging to intrigue mostly him, "Who knows, maybe we will get an odd item or something from this Hunt."

Helena then did an awkward bow while tinting as her chest jiggled slightly before leaving the two alone, and saw Luci beckon her over to finalize the hunt with a particular item he has in his hands: Some of the old toby weed.

With Bean and Sven, twelve or so minutes later as Bean gave him a brief tour of the castle, they managed to hide the two items and was now approaching her bedroom, and turned to Sven as they entered, "You're not a Princess, but you have a room in this Castle?"

"What? No..." Bean trailed off while thinking of something quickly, "This isn't my room," she then saw Bunty (oddly enough) was sleeping on her bed yet they woke her up yet confused her by Bean's next set of words, "This is, uh, her room. Meet Princess Tiabunty."

"Oh, uh, I'm a Princess, I is," Bunty states nervously while guessing Bean was up to her antics once again, "Um, this is my bed that my family lives on and…" she feels the bed once again and still can't believe it's so soft before she passed out.

Bean rolled her orbs at her Handmaiden before she and Sven were making out before he pulled back and looked at the 'Princess', "Would she wake up?" Bean gently shook her head as she made the Viking male look at her as she was glad he read her signs of wanting to do-the-deed, and he only grinned at her then, "Not really as one she passes out, it would be hard for her to wake up."

They then moved her off the bed and onto the sofa while continuing to make out until a knock on her bedroom door occurs when Bean was getting ready to take her top off, and she groaned to herself while giving a shirtless Sven a 'wait here' motion without words, and opened it to find someone she didn't expect: Helena with Elfo, and he shoved himself while Helena gave her cousin a sheepish look, and also confused while irritating Bean as he sat on the bed.

"I tried to stop him, Cousin, but he was insistent on stopping your time tonight," Helena gave her an apologetic look while Bean only nodded once with her arms crossed now as Elfo states rather too sweetly back at her while his legs, went up and down on the bed, "Oh, hi, Bean. I'm not interrupting, am I? Mind if I sit on the bed?"

"What are you doing?" Bean asked firmly to him as Sven being puzzled, made Helena his a small laugh while Bean imagined struggling a chibi version of the Half-Elf, at the blond man's words, "You allow your chimp on the bed?" Elfo though turned to the viking while correcting him, "Elf, actually." Sven only shrugged as he didn't see Elfo looked ticked at that, "Common mistake."

Helena sighed to herself at this point while seeing the tension in the room grew as Elfo pointed to the pillow near Sven while he was making himself comfortable on the bed, "Can you pass me a pillow? My back hurts when my body's filled with rage."

"Oh, it's not healthy to store that. Would you like to lie down on the bed here?" Sven states in concern before doing a double-take by what Bean states without knowing, and didn't hear Helena facepalmed to herself while thanking Albedo on keeping an eye on the party with Luci assisting, "Elfo, get out of my room."

"This is your room?" Sven then realized by what she said and points it out as Bean sighed, "You are the Princess?" Bean gave a dirty look to the Half-Elf as he was unaware of what he has done, "Elfo, I'm gonna kill you." Elfo, however, states back in a small tone of mixed confusion and being innocent from what he heard, "Um, you can't kill me," he turned to Sven to get Helena to freeze at this and finally realize (with a mental groan to herself), and the sudden intrigue by Sven from the Half-Elf's words, "Her dad needs me for the Elixir of Life. It's kind of like insurance."

"The Elixir of Life?" Sven mutters to himself before he got up and Bean gave a look once again at Elfo as the Viking came over and touched her head while telling her gently yet Helena saw him having an odd gleam in his orbs as he looked at her lastly, "Your snowy hair and stormy breath remind me of my homeland. You've been a comfort, but my priorities have changed." He then left as Bean was puzzled as to why Helena took off after him while looking worried.

"Sven, wait…" Bean states with her hand out, but lowered it as she was upset, and turned to Elfo accusingly, "What is your problem, man? This weekend was my one chance at freedom and you ruined it, just like my Dad… You are just a little, green Zøg!" She then took off and out of the room before Elfo states back to her loudly while explaining his actions, "No, wait! I was just trying to control you…" a look of realization then came across his face, "Oh… Well, it's not like your Dad is entirely- Oh. Well, at least he- Oh. Uh Oh," he then got down from the bed and quickly took off after her, and managed to beat Bean a few halls down and seeing him, was a mix of still being mad while impressed by his speed for someone so small, and she blinked at his apologetic words, "I'm sorry."

Seeing she expected more from him while crossing her arms, he sighed while twirling his thumbs and continued his words, "I admit I was too aggressive. I'll just go back to being passive-aggressive, 'cause it worked so well." Bean though rolled her eyes once again as she saw he was being honest, and sighed while telling him then as they walked together, "Too late. Tonight's turned into a carriage wreck. I just want to send people home and curl up with my favorite book." Elfo pauses mid-step while recalling the very book, and asked her as she briefly glanced at him, "The hollowed-out one with the booze inside?" Bean hid a smile as despite his actions, he had a tiny way of cheering her up at times, "Yeah. I can't put it down."

Once they came to the throne room though, they did a double-take as the room was empty yet somewhat trashed, and glowered at Sven as somehow, he managed to have Helena as a hostage from having an iron-like collar around her neck, and Albedo, that they both saw, was tied up alongside Hermione and Daphne and was merely guessing Marabelle and Kisara were guarding Delphi, and the other Vikings were wielding weapons.

"Party's over, Princess… It's truly sad I have to raid your castle and also try and obtain the Elixir of Life by what your Cousin states, might be the hidden treasure we seek," at that, Helena gave her a forgive-me look as Bean suddenly understood that she may have fibbed to the Viking while now guessing everyone left, from her doing, as that would've been a large pile of bodies to clean up, "Especially since I can not believe your in relation to a Chaos Dragon as such as thee," Sven shook Helena's chain while he was amused by the low, painful growl from her as Bean blinked at that while feeling Luci climb up from coming out of her shadow, somehow, and whispered what transpired to then get her angry.

It seems Sven not only tricked Helena to wear a collar that's hurting her, but also threatened about killing her mates and child if she didn't comply as they have anti-magic objects and weaponry (from their last stop) to do so. And Helena did so while telling a lie about the hunt being this item Sven seems to be wanting.

"Seize them," he tells his men as they went after Bean, and both Elfo and her grunted as Luci fell before they were caught, and Sven states to the people within the room aloud on a way, he was telling them in a true statement, "I claim this castle in the name of Land Vikings! I am Land King now!" The Vikings cheered at this.

"I don't get why you'd want to take over this shoddy Kingdom anyway. We're broke. This castle's not even made of real stone. It's particle stone," Bean tells him as she struggled to get free, before he came over and states then while culling her face, and made Helena whimper as the chain-collar attaches to her neck burned when he tugged it while leaving an obvious mark that would take a moment in time to heal, "Vikings don't care about riches," he paused before standing and turned his back on her while making a fist, "We want immortality, that our names might live on for a hundred years as we can continue to see to our goals… We must have the Elixir of Life and get it from where it is hidden within the castle."

They all turned as Helena and her girls winced at seeing arrows sticking out of the Shouter's back, "Hear ye, hear ye! The return of King Zøg is imminent… Please do not shoot the messenger anymore," he then left to only have a few chuckles of some Viking men at the obvious wounds he has, "Oh, God, my Dad's gonna kill us, and then the Vikings are gonna kill my Dad." Bean states to herself yet before Luci could comment, Sven hushed them whole looking at Helena then firmly, "Where is Elixir of Life?"

Later, Helena felt like she was choking as they dragged them all to the catacombs of the castle, and she felt within her mind that Xal'atath was pissed, worried, and felt sorry for her at the same time as she was on her person the entire time whike also observing things, and Bean blinked while Luci was shocked this was here within Dreamland, "Why did I never notice that?"

It was a sealed, very large, black metallic doorway with silver Latin Runes of sorts mixed with other languages that even Helena and the others didn't know about yet there was an insignia of a golden burning star in the center, and a copper javelin of sorts on the top, in a sideways position.

Helena hid a wince as they were expecting something to occur before Sven recalled things, and looked at her, firmly, while Bean was struggling by her cousin's rough treatment as this collar around her neck, made her powerless somehow, "Tell us how to open the door?" She told them while rasping the words out as he saw several items that were needed: A dress, a gorgeous necklace, a used spoon for soup, a goats horn as a mug, a wooden cross, a wolf pelt, and a crab's exoskeleton without the meat (in pieces).

They placed the items in a bowl filled with the castle's water (as they tried that trick yet failed as they were somehow immune to the effects), and began mixing it up while Sven held the map of sorts near the door, and the image changed to the door itself while readable words were displayed, and then made Helena yelp again as he forced her face near the paper, "Read them."

Helena gulped as luck would have it, it was all in latin, and hid a wince when he tugged her collar and repeated the words while mostly everyone saw the bowl and the symbols glow as she spoke, "Cordis mei de potentia, ut hi items ad obsigno quondam electi diu ante cuius potestate est de longe praemisit ad res: et in revelare de treaure (From the power of my Heart, take these items once chosen long ago to seal away the power of which came from far ahead of things to come, and reveal the treaure within)."

The door suddenly let out a beam of flames right at the bowl as the items became ash while being sucked up right into it, and the runes began changing to a neon-rainbow color for, a few moments that is, to awe mostly everyone before they were fading, one by one, until the sigil began glowing as the javelin began to move slowly downwards until it went right through the flame-like star, and lastly, the seams for the door began to appear as it then moved from the middle outwards.

It was pitch black in the entrance and Sven seeing this beckoned a viking over, grabbed his spare touch, and tossed it right into a pool container for oil, and then spread from a line within the walls that went all the way down to reveal steps.

With no choice but to go along as out in the outskirts, King Zøg and the others were delayed and had to take the longer route to the Castle of Dreamland from another feud between some Gnomes and Ogres using the shorter road, as a meeting place.

After several minutes as Helena's condition was worrying her friends, cousin, and kin alongside her mates, they were stunned as they came to a very, very, large, underwater cavern of sorts as they all then realized they were all within a few yards or so under the waves from Dreamland… Yet that is not what amazed them: There was indeed treasure as far as the eyes can see.

Treasure chests, jewels, gems, and even rarity items and others as far as the cavern could hold while still showing a path for them to walk on.

Helena though wasn't worried about the treasure, and was wondering about what the words meant as she held in her pain from her past treatment as such, since she has a high tolerance of it, and despite seeing some of the Vikings nabbing certain objects, Bean and Co. were eventually before a form that even Luci was stunned to see and Helena guessed this is where or perhaps, when, her Mortal Part of the Godparent segment ended up at, as they did so during before her First Year (in Mortal Terms) yet it didn't at all get registered by Demon Law, secretly, but she ended up getting taken before Helena's three-month period (before Hagrid showed at that isle of a house), back then.

The woman that was chained up from the wrists and ankles, was none other than Lucifer herself… Though Helena wondered who the other woman was as well while chained alongside her.

Lucifer as mentioned, was 5'7 in height while having long butt-length blonde hair tied in a ponytail and two round-curled horns on both sides of her head, an average D-Cup chest (her waist being 25 inches and her hips 36 inches to have a top-hourglass frame), and from what Helena recalled, ruby-red or crimson colored eyes that were currently closed. She also wore a metal tiara on her head and a white corset with a calf-length see-through blue loin-cloth skirt on her torso. She has an ornate metal brooch at the base of her throat, puffed sleeves joined at the neck with ornate metal cuffs on her arms, a white glove on her right arm and a black gauntlet on her left. She also wears an elaborate and ornate white-fur-collar six-pointed blue skirt with an x-strapped belt and two white wings in the front. She has ornate metal thigh-high high-heeled boots.

The other woman was beautiful in her own way as well, was smaller than Lucifer, around 5'2 in height, while having a somewhat petite figure (except her chest is around a large C-Cup, with a slight hourglass yet average figure). She currently has glazed, light blue/grey eyes that were open in frozen shock. She also has medium black hair styled into rough bob-cut, fair-skinned, and overall was cute looking while appearing to be at least sixteen or so. The female also wore a church uniform that is coupled with a black belt, mini skirt, black elegant tights and white sleeves. She also has on brown buckled boots, finished with a silver crucifix-like cross on the neck of her outfit.

"Seems we indeed struck a hoard, men," Sven states aloud as his men cheered at this as he let go of Helena but to only tie her up and exclaimed to everyone, then (mostly those residing in Dreamland within the room), "Take it all, and leave the rest of them here while we take the Chaos Dragon with us!" Helena still was puzzled as to how Lucifer got here alongside wondering what in the Seven Hells the Viking, Sven, keeps talking about while she struggled to try and get the chain off.

"You won't get away with this!" Bean states as she has gotten over her mood with the viking male as he chuckled at her while shrugging then, "Sorry Princess, but this Viking Business at work. Besides as Land King, I can do anything." As Helena struggled while Sven cupped a struggling Bean's face and not at all seeing Elfo looked upset at this as he forcibly then kissed her, she felt like something came out of her while fearing everyone and didn't know she sent a weak magical pulse within the area that hit both sets of chains holding both females, and felt like she was getting ready to pass out.

Bean recoiled in disgust by that as usual, it was her with guys doing that yet she felt like she was used by the Viking male as he only smirked at her, and everyone didn't even notice that Lucifer was slowly waking up after a long, long sleep alongside the other girl slowly returning to true time as he chuckled at Bean's firm look, at him, "Don't feel bad, Princess, as you get to stay with the others while us Vikings take your Royal Cousin with us to find another thing Vikings have been searching for: The Draconic Land."

Luci looked and saw Helena was looking to be pale and weak, and then motioned his tail to a certain spot as they too noticed it, and Hermione secretly did a double take at seeing Lucifer was aware while glaring at the leading Viking alongside they saw both sets of chains, on both women, were dimly glowing that same aura as Helena had within the concert she performed.

"Now let's get going men, and conquer this land as the Land King!" Sven cheered as his men did the same, but they paused from a sudden, crimson-like glow coming from behind him and before he knew it, several things occurred all at once:

The chains broke while a crimson aura sent mostly everyone back while also freeing both the teen girl and Helena as she passed out, the men fled in terror while Sven was held by his throat by Lucifer as her eyes and expression was furious looking as she saw the teen girl give a look at Helena while she also eyed the others, and tilted her head to the right to make said teen girl motion for everyone to come over to her as Sven was struggling to breathe a bit. Also with a wave of her wings, the treasure was sucked back up and into all the chests. She even saw the remaining Vikings flee still and with her power, stuffed Sven into the ground as it was too quick as she was speedy, but they were all knocked out.

Lucifer then slowly walked to Sven and kneeled while growling out in anger, and stunning Bean as her personal demon only did a nod while merely watching the show that was about to happen, "What have you done to my Charge!?" Sven though gasped out as she was choking him again, and made Bean lightly gulp, and states to stun Lucifer while letting go and leaving him gasping for air, after, "I did nothing. She is Chaos Dragon and… And plan her to lead us to Draconian Isle."

Lucifer saw and blinked as Helena shifted to her true self as the magic concealing her mortal look fell, and merely shook her head before growling at the man until she paused, and gained a wicked look that he didn't like.

---

It was an hour later as Lucifer made Sven and the Vikings carry all the treasure into the one trunk she created by specific ingredients for her charge (don't ask as said items you would cringe at) and was escorting them one by one into a sudden vortex that she made to exile them on an Isle.

Hermione was currently with Daphne to try and find a vial for Helena to which said girl was passed out, still, yet was barely recovered from her ordeal of that collar as the one teen or otherwise known as Lucifer's Servant/Soulmate by the name of Maria Totsuka, stayed with her while Bean, Elfo, and also Luci, was with her overseeing the Vikings departure.

Kisara would have been here, but she was told alongside Albedo, since she too would have torn them to shreds on their Mate's condition, to take Delphi and distract her while Helena would be cured, soon, and was also laying on a spare mattress within the Throne Room.

Once the last male was sent, Sven then began to beg to Bean then as said Princess only rolled her orbs, "Please I beg ye, spare us!" Bean only amused Lucifer while guessing she was related to Helena by her words then, as this was something she would have done, "Not a chance. You tried to take over the Kingdom and using my cousin for whatever reason you stated, Land King."

Sven gulped before Lucifer summoned her weapon, and her weapon is a huge spear-like staff hybrid that is taller than her, with a pointed tip on one end and an ornate skull-headed dragon with pointed horns on the other end.

She tripped the man and sweatdropped as during the commotion earlier and the wild party, the trap door was opened as Sven fell.

"Well, we won't be seeing him anytime soon," was all Luci states to Bean as it was at this point that King Zøg and Co. came into the Throne Room right as the shadowy vortex closed, blinked a few times, and stated while Bean hid behind Lucifer, "What the hell happened here?!"

After he was told while thanking the gods there was no bodies to clean up at all, from Bean, Elfo, and Luci (as two certain men told him as well their own stories), he closed the trap door while looking at the woman that held her weapon in pride, and stated firmly to her then, "Now explain who the hell you are."

King Zøg blinked alongside Queen Oona as Lucifer chuckled at that as if he stated a joke while twirling her weapon and merely gave him a sharp-toothed grin while being cryptic to upset him more, "Perhaps another time as I have to check up on my Charge and see if she's well, but in the end, you may end up in hell eventually, King Zøg of Dreamland… Maybe not, as it's been a while since I last visited my part of Hell in the first place."

Now wary of her words as Derrick hid behind his mother, Bean sighed as she gave Luci a look to only see he was amused by Lucifer's words as her father stated firmly then while pointing at her, and putting up a brave font, "Ok Lady, get the hell out of my Castle! Especially since you freak me out." He admitted the last part to himself.

Lucifer only chuckled before seeing Maria came in while looking solemn to make Lucifer slwoly lose her grin, and states to her in a hidden tone of concern yet with firmness, while also making Maria blink at her with quick understanding, "How is she?"

"My Lady, she is currently stable as thanks to the donation of your power you gave her, her magical output was thankfully restored to full capacity and probably expect Lady Helena to awaken by late afternoon tomorrow, or the day after, the least." Maria tells Lucifer while seeing her Lord/Lover frown at that as she sighed as King Zøg turned to his child and states firmly, "Ok, what else happened that you didn't explain?" He paused before turning to Lucifer as Bean and Co. didn't like the sudden gleam in her orbs at her father by his firm order, "And didn't I tell you to get out of my Castle?"

While partially amused by the King, Lucifer sent them all on their knees while glancing with apologetic eyes at her Soulmate, and glared at King Zøg while firmly stating to him in a way that he needs to pay attention, "Mortal. I am more powerful than you can ever be, especially since I was placed by your ancestors long ago within that chamber when I was sent away by the Old Coot to the Dark Ages, alongside this girl who ended up as my Soulmate and Servant, combined!"

King Zøg took a few steps back away from Lucifer as she fully revealed her features as she could easily hide them, and he gulped and hesitated to ask, but he felt that if he didn't, he was going to regret it, "Who are ya?"

Lucifer's eye's glowed briefly at him while placing her weapon firmly down and leaning on it like a pillar or pole, and stunned everyone except for Bean and Co. as they already know, "Why, I am Lucifer: Former ArchAngel of Heaven, Lord of my particular part of Hell, and the Sigil of Pride amongst most Demons."

She dismissed him while then following Maria to where Helena was, and made King Zøg groan before making Bean sigh by his words, "I'll feel a headache coming on. I'ma deal with this first thing in the morning… I'm tired and cranky, and I don't want to deal with any more crap tonight."

---

A day later, within the Afternoon within Helena's Chambers:

Helena groaned while feeling herself was on a bed, and when she opened her eyes and glanced, she saw she was in her room and sighed while holding a wince, and glanced to her right while blinking at seeing Lucifer was reading a book before seeing she was awake, and closed it while saving the place she was on before stating softly, "What has happened to you while I was away, My Little Spitfire?"

Helena opened her mouth yet closed it, and turned away while making Lucifer sigh and confused Helena as she heard her state to herself then, "I truly didn't want to find out this way but…" without warning, Helena froze up as mere seconds later, Lucifer's face was mixed as Helena blinked before she accused her Demonic Mother, in terms, as that's what she is, to her, "Did you just Mind Scanned me?"

"I am afraid I did so. I knew you would be reluctant by what I was told from the lower demon named after me, but I never thought you end up as you were while I was away…" Lucifer got up to concern Helena as she gazed out the window and eyed the scenery, but her mind was quickly adjusting still the memories of what Helena had. All of them that is, "I should have fought harder, and more to try and remain with you, Hel."

"But you were taken without warning though, Ma, and… Things didn't turn out so bad." Seeing her Demonic Mother's look, Helena looked away as Lucifer came back over and made the teen look at her, "Things may have turned short for the both of us, but at least we're together at last once again."

Helena nodded while then being confused as Lucifer made her tint while checking her body over as it seems she her true self and hummed before admitting and making Helena blink at her words in slight surprise for, "You seem to have indeed been born as a Chaos Dragon from what I sensed as your aura was familiar with one I may have met long ago… Way long ago to the truth, but if we ever return," Helena jumped at seeing her aura spike and show itself briefly to know she was vengeful before quelling it back into her being, "I will personally see to the devastation of whom caused you pain and strife, and the misdeeds of those very Mortals as well."

Seeing Helena's look, she sighed while deciding to change the subject, and made Helena let out a small smile while inwardly was relieved to hear she was ok, "Your offspring is rather amazing as you were back then, at least. Even though her other parent is amongst us and is currently watching her."

Helena blinked and before she could ask, she heard a certain yell outside then to know Bean was complying about something, "You know, I would have left willingly!"

Seeing her look, Lucifer helped her child up, and they saw with their eyesight that Bean was at the gate with Luci, and wondered what occurred to make her cousin upset yet saw her Uncle stating to her then while crossing his arms in a rather calm manner to know he was upset over something, "Oh, hello, Bean." He then motioned to the Bus Boy while bringing some odd solutions and dripping them into his ears alongside pellets, of sorts, "I've had Sorcerio work up a special effect so smoke comes out my ears when I yell."

After he placed them in, he was stating mostly to himself as Bean looked at him warily, "Thinking about what I'm gonna say and…" his ears suddenly began to smoke while yelling loudly to himself, "Jeez, it burns!" He then looked to his child, "This is all your fault!"

"Daddy, please, I've learned my lesson. I'll never throw a giant awesome party while you're away again." Bean states in a pleading tone, and a random man stated in disappointment at that to her, "Aw! Really?" And he left quickly at seeing the King look at him as Bean continued as if she was pledging herself, "And I promise to never have another drink."

"You're drinking right now," King Zøg tells her while making Bean gleeful mixed with being confused at the Glog within her hands, "Where did that come from?" Luci chuckled while telling her in a thank-me tone as Elfo was beside them, "You're welcome."

"Sorry. I'm done threatening you," King Zøg began to explain as Bean tossed the empty mug away, and worried Helena over as by his look, he was being serious with her, "You screwed up as a Princess. You screwed up as a Nun… Those are the only two girl things I know." He was also gesturing with fingers and whatnot as he spoke to her though.

"You're a screw up, too. What about that tax on yelling that you had?" Bean states while making Helena blink as she didn't know that while King Zøg groaned yet yelled at her slightly, "It came back to haunt me!" A small man that had a mug with the words, Tax, came over while they easily heard coins jingling with a chuckle, and placed some into the mug as he left, "This ain't about my impulse control..." he began before looking at her angrily while standing in place, "Or lack thereof, tubby." Bean states in a 'I don't care' tone with her left hand on her hip at him.

King Zøg groaned while muttering to himself while paying the guy again, "That is it! You're a pampered, irresponsible layabout!" Bean rolled her orbs at him as she stated in a dismissive tone, "Whatever. I'll be in the spa room getting a hot emerald massage."

Bean was then grabbed by him as he tutted, and tells her firmly, "No, you don't, smart guy. 'Cause I'm banishing you from the Castle." Bean looked at him in hidden shock at that while Helena gasped at this as she listened onwards, "You're a good-for-nothing and you're good at nothing. And you ain't coming back 'til you appreciate all the money I poured into yelling at you."

Bean was then angry as she stated firmly to him then as she left with Luci and Elfo, "Fine. I can make it on my own… I don't need you. I don't need anyone," as she left, steam suddenly hisses out of King Zøg's ears as he shouts as The tax man also came back, "Now it goes off?"

Seeing her Charge/Child's look, she made Helena blink as she felt herself get healed even more while Lucifer gently tells her while knowing how she acts and stuff, from her memories, "I will have Maria watch over your child while I go have a chat with this Uncle you cherish, and in the meantime, don't use too much of your power as you need at least a few days to recover. Got it?" Helena only hugged her as she then flew out of the Castle window while sadly amusing Lucifer, and left the room.

With Bean and the two males as they were on their way to the village the Castle owns, Bean looked at them both as they easily kept up with her as Elfo states to Bean, then, "Man, I can't believe your Dad kicked us out." Luci agreed and added to the Half-Elf's words, "I can't believe he called you a worthless, bucktoothed degenerate." Bean at this, nearly paused mid-step yet tells her personal demon quietly as she was still secretly shocked yet also hurt her father did this, "He didn't say that." Luci shrugged as they didn't see the shadow overhead of them, "Doesn't make it any less true."

"Who cares what he thinks? I don't need my Dad's approval," Bean states than in both a rebellious tone mixed with determination as they passed by an orphanage and Luci tells her while being proud of her, secretly, "Spoken like a true homeless teenager." They turned though as the orphan girl admits to them as Helena landed behind the trio, while holding onto the bars, "I used to be a Princess, too."

"What does Zøg know anyway? I'm probably good at so many things I just haven't tried yet." She states before they jumped as Bean did and was surprised to see her moving around yet saw the concern look Helena had while turning back to her Human Look, "You ok Bean?"

Bean put up a brave front that convinced Helena only slightly while eyeing Elfo and Luci to know she was lying, "I'm good, I needed to get out on my own anyways… But what should I do first though? You know what? This isn't so bad. No, no, no. This is actually good. This is an opportunity to start fresh." Helena and the other two hid a wince as when Bean was speaking, she got splattered on the face with slop, and heard a familiar voice state to them, "I told you strumpets to stay off my block."

It was Bunty within to what Helena guessed, was her home, "Oh, Your Highnesses," Bunty states in odd shock at seeing her alongside Helena as Bean wipes the slop off her face and stated in bewilderment, "Bunty? Why are you throwing trash out your window?" Bunty disagrees with her in that while explaining it to her, "This isn't a window. This is our trash hole. We're far too poor for windows. We only just got a door when the horse ate the wall… Didn't agree with him, though." Indeed a dead horse was at said hole in the wall that Helena felt sorry for, as she oddly sensed somehow, the spirit of said animal was around this area, still.

"Step around and come in," Bunty offers as they did so and came into a room that had kids eating poor man food, and there were indistinct chatter from them talking to themselves before Bunty showed, and was whistling and getting their attention, "Children, this is both Princess Tiabeanie and Princess Helena…" Helena was rather impressed by Bunty knowing Bean's state of things and told them, "Princess Tiabeanie is going to be staying with us until she realizes how good she has it."

"Hello," everyone greeted them with Helena feeling awkward like her cousin as she waved slightly while replying 'hello' back before realizing what Bunty said, and turned to her while trying to convince her out of it, "No, I couldn't impose, Bunty. It'd be taking precious food out of the mouths of your kids."

"Rubbish. We never turn away a hungry soul," Bunty's husband states to Bean while displaying said cooking pot, "We've got this pot of stew here, and we can always add another cat." They looked at Luci to that while he went behind Bean and the male did a 'Mmm' sound briefly at that.

Babies were then cooing as they came over and Helena sweet dropped as Luci only chuckled and Bean also didn't know what to think as Elfo was also taken as well while stating, 'Whee', before realizing and staying to Bunty, "Wait, what are you doing?" She only responded while giving him and the other babies a shared, udder-like contraption of sorts, "Pig milk for the runty ones." Elfo began tasting it while taking a few gulps as Helena shivered as she did try it, but didn't like the taste of it at all, "Mmm, mmm."

"You sure we can stay, Bunts?" Bean asked her to settle Helena over as Bunty waved her off while making Bean sit in a nearby chair, "No worries. There's plenty of room since Allison went to a better place." Helena, like Bean, thought maybe this girl had passed away and she only stated to Bunty before Bean could, "Sorry for your loss."

"No, she went to Twinkletown," Bunty tells them while Bean gave an 'Ah' to her before blinking as Bunty then stated to them, "Where she was ripped apart by odd street dogs last I knew." Bean let out a 'Oh' sound as Bunty tells mostly her as Helena did a double take to intrigue Luci as she saw a ghostly little girl with red hair as fire, green eyes, and a cute body around nine or so while looking like she was showing scar-like claw marks on her arms and face, slightly, to make it she had whisker marks, and her legs while wearing torn clothing to an assistant of a shop, "They were puppies." Bean awed at that.

"Shame, though… She were only nine years old, just a year from retirement." The man states as Helena saw the child look at her family solemnly before doing a double-take at being confused from her being looked at, by her.

"She had a job?" Bean asked to secretly make Helena jump alongside the ghostly child as not known to anyone, her Magic was sent into the ghost girl as she was now free as to roam, and was in slight surprise as Bunty admits to them both while Helena was concerned about this type of thing being Child Labor, "They all got jobs." He told Bean as if it was an everyday thing.

"I'm a midwife," one child states before noticing Bunty and then states to them, "Excuse me for a moment." Bunty didn't know it but she let out an 'Oh' sound while hearing a baby crying as the child quickly was wrapped in a blanket, and the husband states to the newborn, "Uh-uh. If you can cry, you can work." At that, the baby quickly shut up.

"Oh, my God, jobs." Bean began while an apifiny showed on her face, "That's what people do all day!" She stood up and stated to them in a mix of determination and hesitation, "All right. Well, I'm off to get my first job, guys." She paused mid-step and turned to both Bunty and her Husband, "What's minimum wage around here?" The man only replied to her, "Two lashings an hour."

"Gotta start somewhere." She states with a shrug before looking at the Half-Elf as Helena was disturbed at seeing Bunty changing the grown elf like a baby, "Elfo, you coming?" While being changed, he shook his head no, "Nah, I kinda got my pants full over here." He gestured to Bunty in which she did, "More pow-pow on the bum-bum, please."

Helena though took Bean to the side and whispered into her ear, and she went wide-eyed while Luci chuckled knowingly while not saying anything as Bean too, noticed the ghostly child that was following them, "I think I see their child, Alison, Bean, can you?"

"Holy shit, I can see her Hel," Bean states while the ghostly girl wagged a finger at her while amusing Helena and Luci, as Bean only rolled her orbs at her then, "That's a bad word to say around kids, Miss." Helena oddly felt Xal'atath chuckle within her mind in amusement at the child as Bean shrugged and felt rather awkward of a child following them, even if she was dead.

Later on, though, Helena was chit-chatting with the child to surprisingly be a Potion Master and mastered everything before her death by Hell Hound Pups that her Master managed to acquire, for a client of his, as Bean was being shown the ropes to her first job: A Sheep Herder.

"Just remember, this job is easier than it looks," the Herder states to Bean as he handed her the herding stick, and left her then while Bean tells the sheep (even though they won't listen as they were sheep), "Okay, guys, listen up. I'm gonna try out my Sheep Call on you."

Before she could, she looked at her cousin as she tilted her head and asked while in her true form, "You can bleat like a sheep?" Bean nodded in 'watch me' gestures, and instead of bleating to make Helena facepalm while Luci was chuckling at the outcome. She was howling and leading the sheep to their doom over a cliff side from fear and told them to stop and stuff, and the Herder came back while telling her in honesty as he took the stick back, "Well, at least you kept them together."

Later on, even more as it was nighttime and Helena also took the ghost girl with her to the castle, Bean's next job was a lighthouse keeper and tells the other watcher, "Every time I turn my head away, something bad happens." There was a pile up of ships as another one crashed, "What was that noise?"

In the morning on December 21st, Bean was working at her new job while finishing the last bit of meat while admitting to herself as the owner came back, "Whew. I'm a good butcher." She looked deflated at knowing by his look she lost another job, "This is a Pet Shop."

Once Bean was kicked out while seeing Luci in an old barrel, Bean sighed while knowing Helena was coming with Lucifer as from what she heard from Alison as their secret messenger until they could make her whole, once again, told her that she sent Albedo and Kisara to an odd assignment with Maria, so Daphne would be watching Delphi alongside Hermione and Marabelle, and wanted to spend time with (what she deems as such) another child to look after while getting to know more about Helena, "This isn't working out… Maybe I really am a good-at-nothing."

"Good-for-nothing." Luci admits while walking alongside her as Bean groaned at herself as she admired in honesty to her personal demon, "Even that."

Later on once again (I keep placing that into this, huh?), Elfo states while Bean was twirling the spoon in the soup as the girls that had jobs was doing leftover work, and Luci was making faces at the nearby baby as he was being burped by Bunty, "Bean, don't feel bad. Sometimes being an adult just means accepting that things take time…" he burps before admitting in a way to make Bean shiver at, "Ooh, I would not kiss me right now."

"I wouldn't worry about that," Luci states as Bean tells them then while she looked let down, "I'll never find a place to fit in… I'm just gonna crawl back to my Dad 'cause I'm a loser who can't keep a job."

"Hey, if you're gonna crawl back, can I ride you like a horse?" Bean heard Luci asked as she knew he was a demon and shrugged while telling him then, "All right." And she did so while Luci was acting like a cowboy, "Giddy-up, Bean!"

"Whoa, there," Bunty's Husband, Stan, states to Bean while stopping her and seeing her down on her luck, decided to help her out, "My apprentice has gone missing under mysterious circumstances, but instead of looking for him, I could just hire you. It's a real time-saver."

"I don't know, Stan. I'm not really good at anything," Bean tells him while he asked as he was getting around, "Do you like short conversations with interesting people?" Bean didn't know the answer to that while telling him in a not-sure way, "I guess." He looked happy with that mere answer as he stated to her then while getting everything ready, "Great. I hope you don't mind wearing a uniform." It took Bean a moment to realize he was, in fact, Stan the Executioner for Dreamland, and was one of the most popular people around. "Well, we best be heading to work." He chuckled at his small pun while telling her as they were heading out alongside the children to their jobs, "That's an executioner joke. You'll hear all of them in the first fifteen minutes, then it's basically just human tragedy."

Stan was whistling cheerily as Bean followed him as Alison saw this, and quickly floated to where Helena was to tell her where her cousin's new job was, and Luci admits to Bean then, "I always wanted to be in the entertainment industry… You know, in Hell, I was a communication major."

Now back within the Castle Dungeons, Bean was being shown alongside Luci, Helena, and Lucifer herself as oddly enough, it was 'Guest Day' for the prison, "This is the Thumb Screw. Whoa-ho! This is the Rack. Whoa! And this is the Iron Maiden, and this is the Book of Golf Jokes."

Helena was rather impressed alongside disturbed at how casually he stated each object to get Lucifer to understand as despite being within the Grey Aspect of things, she knew her Charge was not one to be a killer, yet they paused before moving ahead as Luci decided to amuse himself by looking into the book by telling jokes, "My wife says I play too much golf so I decided to make a change. I got a new wife." Luci smirked at hearing people moaning, "After seeing my golf score, my caddy gave me one great piece of advice. Take up tennis." "No! I beg you!" A random person states to him.

Back with Bean, Stan, Lucifer, and Helena, he tells Bean mostly, "Since this is your first day, we'll keep it simple," he hands her a mace while guessing the man near them was done for, "Torture this guy a little, then get him his last meal." He paused before turning to them, "You two want anything?" Both Lucifer and Helena shook their heads as they ate before coming here, and he shrugged while whistling as he went somewhere.

"Oof. Um, this looks... Yikes." Bean states to the prisoner before she placed it down before she tells herself at, first, before him, "You know, I'm hungry. Are you hungry? Let's do the meal part first."

The prisoner thought about it before agreeing with her, "I could eat." Bean clapped her hands while knowing her cousin and the powerful demon woman was watching her as she states to him, "Great." She blinked at his next question, "What are we having?" She shrugged while telling him as he was then thinking, "It's your last meal. Choice is yours." He then tells her then, "Ooh. Uh, stew." Bean hummed to herself before telling him on a way to confuse the poor man, "No, I had stew yesterday."

He thinks before telling her then, "Okay, uh, chicken." He blinked at her than by her own question, "Fried or roasted?" He shrugged the best he could while answering her, "I was thinking roasted." Bean looked to be in thought as she hummed again, "All right, fried?"

"I," she sighs as Lucifer was amused with Helena not knowing what was going on, what just watched, "Well, what do you want?" He then told her honestly, "Oh, I don't care." She then reminds him then, "It's your last meal." He shrugged and tells her as he was craving this meat as well, "Fine, fine. Steak. I want steak for my last meal. Okay?" Bean smiles at him in agreement, "All right. I could do steak." He looked relieved while sighing, before he groaned in place by Bean's next set of words, "Actually, I'm sorry. That's just so heavy, you know? You know what? Maybe stew."

"Stew?" He states before screaming and making Bean jump back in surprise as she didn't even realize she was torturing the man by mental means, "Wow. You're a natural." Stan states rather impressed while wiping his bloody hands on some spare cloth, and this perked Bean up, "Really?" He nods as he liked seeing approval from what he heard, was a Lord-Based Demon by her gleam in her eyes at him, "Oh, yeah."

They then jumped as the male prisoner shouts at Stan In a plea, "Don't leave me alone with her!" I guess I am. Bean then thought before she and Helena jumped from hearing creepy cackling. "I've captured the Witch who abducted those people in the woods, way back to the 'Hansel and Gretel' cold case." The One-Eyed Leading Knight states to Stan as he nodded while telling him, "Good work bringing her in alive and unharmed. We'll chop her head off this afternoon."

Helena though saw some odd aura around the woman's neck and was wondering if she was affected by something, before hearing Stan state something she didn't hear before he left them while Helena beamed at her Demonic Mother at placing a Wizards Chest Set out, and was playing for a while while hearing Bean as she was getting drinks for herself and the Witch, "So I gotta know, is that whole flying broom thing just an old wives' tale? Like how people expect me to kiss frogs and talk to birds, as Helena over their has yet to tell me." She yelped as the old crone grabbed her and only cackled, "Okay, or you're just a crazy Old Witch. But maybe that isn't what you wanted to be. Plus, there can't be that many opportunities for older women who like to cackle. Is that it?" The Witch only cackled in reply, "Are you crazy or under a curse?" She cackled to get Helena to then think while beating Lucifer this time, "Maybe both."

Stan was carrying heavy equipment and placed it down when he came back while seeing the "Tickling Feather" was on the ground and when he went to pick it up… Helena winced at hearing his bones crack as he suddenly complained while going to the empty rack as that guy was dead now, "Oh! Me back! Oh, nothing a few days on the rack won't cure." He stretches a bit while self-cranking the Rack, "Oh, that's the stuff…" he inhales sharply, "Oh, yes!" He inhaled one more time before admitting to Bean as she came over and blinked at his words, "Guess I won't be chopping off any heads today."

Bean thought this was good news and tells the Witch as Helena felt an odd feeling that wasn't it, "Looks like you got a reprieve." Stan shook his head no, and tells her, then, "Nope, looks like you got a promotion. You're the Executioner today."

Helena though shivered as she felt something was going on with the Half-Elf as indeed something was, in fact, occurring, and she gave Lucifer a look for later while seeing Bean was conflicted.

Meanwhile as Helena's hunch or feelings was spot on as Elfo was making a rope of sorts around the cage he was locked into while dressed as a baby around the sodden bars, and Bunty seeing this tells him as she was doing laundry, "Oh, wee one, there's no escape from the Fun Cage."

He somehow managed to make a bunji out of the sheets and broke easily free of said cage, bounced, and took off as Bunty stated while gathering the little ones remaining, "Come back, Baby Elfo!" He only shored back as he was still running from her, "I'm not a baby. I'm a toddler!"

Later on (close to twenty or so minutes later), Elfo passed through the crowd for the witches exactions as she shouted to come back, a seller then stated aloud to anyone wanting to buy it, "Blood ponchos! Get your blood ponchos! Can't stand in the splash zone without a blood poncho!"

Helena though decided to support Bean as she allowed Lucifer to head back to the Castle as Kisara came back with Albedo with something odd, and Bean states in honesty to Stan as he held his back while walking alongside her with Luci, "This is all happening so quick. I'm really nervous…. What do I do?" Stan gave her a warm smile while helping her out, "For starters, you should have put on the black hood before coming out. Now everyone knows who you are." He chickes slightly, "Rookie mistake."

"Oh, dear." Bean states as she placed her hood on her head and sighs while telling him then, "I'm not sure I can do this. I've never killed anyone before." Seeing Helena's and their looks, she clears her throat before correcting herself, "Who wasn't trying to kill me first… Or bother me… Or marry me."

"Bean, you're a natural. And I've seen you torture. Just think of this as torture, but with a big, splattery finish," Stan states to her while trying to lift her spirits, "Now get out there and let's see some gore." Luci then tells her, "I'll be right here with you, okay? If you get nervous, just look into my eye." Helena was going to warn her cousin about that as it was too late as she saw things, and it was torture with souls screaming and stuff.

At the castle wall, King Zøg was observing this in odd pride while telling Odval (since the Queen and her son was preoccupied and the others as well), "My little girl. All grown up and choppin' heads. And all it took was some loving banishment."

Meanwhile, with Elfo, he was still running and left into the woods as Bunty's infants were crying while she panted, and states loudly to both herself and him, "No, not the woods. People go in there and never come back… Remember, run between the trees!" She paused before doing so as the infants took this chance to split the area, "I'm just gonna lie down."

Back with the crowd and the Executioner Job, the Shouter (who was healed up) states in a hooked device to speak to everyone, and gestures to the man on a torture device, "And that concludes the warm-up entertainment. Let's hear it for Gary the Grabass." The crowd applauded halfheartedly at that, "And now, the main event. Please put your hands together in prayer for the People-Snatching Witch!" The crowd was then hooting and cheering at this as they came into the "Stage".

Helena withheld a comment while being next to Luci as she was supporting her yet at the same time, trying to not cringe as she felt or somehow knew Bean wasn't cut out for that type of job, but didn't want to ruin her cousin's hope on that, and heard her (like the crowd) clearing her throat before speaking, "Hello? Everybody?"

Random people then were telling her to kill her and stuff before Bean states loudly at them all, as she didn't see Luci was in the crowd as well, "This is a goddamn solemn occasion, so shut the hell up, all right?" Luci though hit a glare from Helena when he shouts and a few men cheered at this idea, "Take off your shirt!"

"You guys, have some compassion and respect here. This poor woman is nervous. She's shaking, she's sweating. This is the first time she's ever been killed. Give her a break, okay?" Bean states while Helena sighed and knew she's talking about herself, "I'm sorry, I guess I have to chop your head off now. Do you have any last words? You could apologize. Maybe then the King would pardon you." Bean tells the Old Witch then, "Don't bother. I can't hear nothin'." And he was right as from that stunt, he was still healing over the hearing loss.

"Come on, this is it. At least give us something to remember you by. As long as it's not-" the Old Witch cackled to her then, "What is wrong with you? It's like you want me to chop your head off. Help a sister out." Bean then placed her down and positioned the Old Witch to have her head chopped off, and a man and son was near her in the front as she heard him state the excited boy with a catchers mitt, "Stay sharp, son. It might go foul."

"You can do it, Bean. Just use the force. Centrifugal force." Stan states to her while motioning it as well, "Hey, choppa, choppa. Swing, choppa." The boy states, and up in the rafters, King Zøg states to mostly himself in pride, "That's my little girl, everyone. Murdering that hag."

"Daddy, why is she going so slow?" The father states as indeed Bean was stalling her swing, "I'm watching the same execution as you, son. I don't know." Bean then placed the blade on the Old Witches neck and states while dropping the ax as she didn't kill her, "I can't."

The crowd was dissatisfied with this before Stan came over and so did Helena as Luci rode her shoulders, and tells Bean then as she came down the steps and the guards took the Old Witch away, "I misspoke, Bean. You know how I said you were a failure and a quitter? I forgot one more thing…" Bean looked deflated at that while everyone didn't see Helena's eyes glowed a bit in small anger by his words as he didn't have to state it so bluntly as if it was all she was, "You're also a loser…" he then Bean then began to move as Helena held the odd urge to harm the crowd as Stan shouts to everyone, "Make way for the loser! Coming through! Here she is! Failure slash quitter slash loser! The triple-threat." He laughed as Bean kept walking as Helena felt her right hand was shaking yet stopped as he laughed before telling himself aloud, "There she goes."

Above the wall as the crowd was dispersing as well, King Zøg groaned to himself on a way he knew this would occur, "Every time that girl gets a little responsibility, somebody winds up alive."

"Well, that's it I guess. There's no place for me in Dreamland. I've hit the bottom of the barrel." Bean tells Luci and Helena, as Helena only patted her cousin on the back before they blinked at seeing an old man in a water barrel and states to them firmly, "Move along! You're bad for business." Bean though states to herself as they left the old man then, "Maybe I'm just not cut out for the high-pressure lifestyle of the big city." And they heard him state then to her, "It's not for everybody… Me-flavored water, fifteen cents. Come taste my knees, fifteen cents!"

Now at the outskirts near the woods, Bean sighed as Luci decided to ride Bean's shoulder this time as Helena was taking her frustrations out by carving from stone into a carving of sorts, in a delicate way, to look like "Luci" himself, "I suck. The only thing I'm good at is sitting on this rock and crying."

Helena pocketed the rock as she was going to come over before they all blinked as Bean was interrupted from her starting states of grief as it was a turtle, "I ain't no rock and I've heard better crying." Bean then moaned to her cousin and personal demon, and she was laying down as well, in misery, "Just bury me alive next to these elf tracks"

"Where do you think he was going?" Luci states to Bean to confuse her briefly, "Who?" Helena sighed as Bean gave her a look by her words then, "Well, we can add detective to the list of things you're bad at," she looked to Luci and gotten the hint, as she knew he was also a good tracker, "There's only one elf in town." He tells Bean in a reminding tone, and she blinks, and then gets it, "Oh! Elfo! His tracks lead right toward that tree."

They then began following Luci as he was sniffing the ground, and tells them, "Looks like he turned away at the last second, then hit this other tree… Then he cried, kicked that rock, hopped around in pain, then stomped angrily down this trail, where this demented squirrel stole his shoe." Helena held in a shudder by its look at them while indeed snarling and having his shoe in its mouth.

Meanwhile, with said Half-Elf, Elfo was lost as he didn't know where he was within the woods, but he froze as he came across a woman of sorts bathing in a lake within the Enchanted Forest. She was pink skinned with red-hair, has long eyelashes and four blue dots on her forehead while having a delicate looking body and face, mixed with her figure being a perfect hourglass and DD-Cups, for her chest size.

"Whoa," he states before seeing he startled the woman while he felt awkward and states, "Hi… Elfo… And you are?" She then smiles warmly at him while oddly feeling she would be seeing him more often, as she has been living near this lake for a few years as she was in fact, a High Elf for the Woodaga Clan, and was rather famous to be known as the "Lady of the Lake" for a few others in history (yes I am going there and good reason as such), and heiress to her people, "Amused by your wittle twousers." She tells him while making him roll his orbs as he stated then to amuse her even further, "If you're referring to my nappy, it's actually war pants."

"Well, I should probably get back to battle-" Elfo began while forgetting to ask for directions and tripped over a root and was yelping and grunting until he came across a cottage made out of sweets, "Ah!" He states while eyeing the sugary house and takes a bite from the nearby gumdrop, "Mmm. Mmm. Mmm. Mmm. Mmm." He states as he loved the flavor… before yelling as he was caught eating said gumdrop by two, blonde haired, German dressed twins around their thirties.

"Looks like we have a window licker." The male twin states, as the female opened the door and tells Elfo, "Come, the candy inside tastes much better. Less bird droppings. He's Hansel-" then the female spoke, "Und she's Gretel." Elfo paused, "So Gretel and Hansel?" He pointed at them as they both shook their heads no while stating it in German, "Nein-" "Hansel und Gretel!" The male twin, Hansel states, "Please, come in. Schnell!"

"Mmm, wow. Good cocoa. Yeah, buttery mouthfeel, good viscosity. Do I detect some kind of mallow? I wanna say marsh." Elfo tells the twins while he states the marvelous flavors he nearly forgot about from his homeland, "Oh, you must have excellent taste." Gretel tells him as the twins then snickered, "Don't give away the game. When Germans laugh, people get nervous." Her brother tells his sister as she whispered back while Elfo was distracted easily, "Can I do the thing about having him for dinner?" Hansel paused at that while briefly shrugging as he whispered back, "That's fine. He's a dummkopf. It doesn't matter." Gretel agreed, "Let's fatten him up!" Elfo was then looking at them, "He's looking at us, so I'm going to stop whispering now."

Hansel then began to comment to the Half-Elf, "You say you come from the 'Land of Candy'? Then you must love peppermint swirlies und chocolate logs und sugarplums… Und none of them are dusted mit sleeping powder." Elfo was then eating then as he chuckles, and tells them, "I'll tell you, if I lived here, I'd probably eat the whole place… hehe, I don't know how you stop yourselves."

They looked at each other with a glint in their eyes, "Oh, we're more meat eaters now." They saw the powder was taking effect as they led him to the kitchen, "Oh! All that candy made me so tired. I'm just gonna lay down in this pan."

"He might as well just pour butter on himself." Hansel tells his sister before disbelief was on their faces as he states to her on a loud-like whisper, "He is!" Gretel shares his thoughts, "I'm confused. Does he want to die?" Elfo must have heard them state something wrong yet admits to them, "No, I just don't want to stick."

Hansel was then doing the greedy sign to himself as Gretel grabbed Elfo while in the pan, and placed him in the oven. It was then he was alert as due to his Elf-like use to fraud candy as his previous job before the wrapping one, he was immune of sorts to poisoned candy, but it takes time to kick in, "Hey…" he realized what was going on then, and states in growing fear, "Hey, let me out."

Elfo then had an idea while telling them a small lie, "I'll show you where me pot o' gold is." Hansel thinking he might be telling the truth, states to his sister, "Maybe he is a leprechaun. He's dancing a jig." His sister seeing this disproved that, "No, he's just boiling."

Elfo was screaming then, and on the outside as the inner walls of the house was soundproof, Luci, Helena, and Bean was then here at the very house, alongside the Lady of the Lake while Helena tinted from the robe she gave her, as it turned out, she was a new Soulmate to her as well… Hope the Girls won't mind her when I come back. Was all Helena thought while she was confused as to why the Nymph-Based High Elf was afraid to go inside, and Helena sighed as Bean and Luci was looking into things, and tells Alana gently to make her tint, "Just stay out here then and wait for us, as I have a bad feeling I wouldn't like you inside as I share the same feeling."

Alana Woodaga hesitates but then kisses her gently on the lips that Bean saw, with a small smile at, slightly, while making her day a little better at seeing her cousin happy and also confused not only her but Alana as she gave her a Rubik's Cube to mess around with.

Helena while seeing her newer Soulmate was safe, heard Luci state to them then, "Judging from the height of these tongue marks, this house has recently been licked by an Elf."

Hansel then saw them while raising an eyebrow at seeing Helena yet mentally shrugged it off, "First that little guy, now you two?" Helena felt off from the male while narrowing her orbs suspiciously, as unlike Luci and Bean, she felt a dread-like feeling was awaiting them inside.

"Has anyone else come by here today?" Bean asked the German as he states to them with his answer, a lie of course, "No, no, no. But come in. Make yourself casserole- I mean, comfortable." Helena stiffened at that as he closed the door behind them as he sighed while they were in the kitchen, and Bean sat down alongside Luci, and Helena, as he tells them to perk them up, "You're just in time for supper. Do you like ham? This is like ham, but it's not ham."

"How cute. It looks like a little monkey all roasted up with onions." Bean states as she and Luci began grabbing a leg, and Helena though saw the twins raise an eyebrow (with Hansel doing so once again) at seeing her grab a candied apple from their secret stash somehow without knowing she craved it by the use of her magic, and was gently eating it, quickly.

"Ja. It does, but it's not. Eat." Gretel tells them as they did eat it, and Bean swallowed while saying, "Hmm. I like this, but as a friend. Whatever it is, it's delicious." She paused as not known to the twins as Helena finished her Candied Apple, easily, as without her knowing, her magic acted up as all their infinite amount of stash was sent into her trunk back at Dreamland Castle, and saw they had a cookbook.

It was no ordinary cookbook though as it was one based on creatures and humans.

"Oh, my God!" Bean shouts in utter fright along with holding back the urge to start crying at finding it was an actual person leg she was eating, and Helena growled lowly at the twins, "You served me Elfo?" Luci didn't help matters as he went for more, "I thought I didn't like him."

"Don't be a dummy bear. Elf is dessert meat. It's still cooking." Gretel states to them as indeed they heard him calling out for help, and he was allergic to apples, "Elfo! Don't worry, I'll get you-" "Bean!" Bean! Achtung!" Both Helena and Luci states as she states the word, oh, "'Make yourself casserole'… Now I get it." She states as Gretel used a large candy-cane to shove her into Helena as Helena was worried since she was somewhat better yet, at the same time, still weak from her ordeal.

Luci as Helena and Bean began to fight the twins within the kitchen, groans before stating to himself, "Never send a Princess to do a demon's job." He goes in and grabs the Half-Elf, and saw he was passed out from the lack of air, and grunted out, "God, what did they marinate you in, man? It smells out of this world."

While Helena was knocked back into the table and broke it, she saw her cousin was fighting Gretel and managed to disarm her while seeing the drumstick lollipop was ignited before seeing Bean then shove a large gumdrop on Gretal's head to make her start gasping for air, "I'll save you, sister." He comes over and grossed them all out as he managed to eat enough while kissing her and they were then breathing heavily while locking their lips, and Bean groaned out before Helena could, "Stop it with tongues."

"The blow pop! It's gonna-" Hansel states in sudden worry as Bean grabbed the broken table that the leftover fragment looked like a double-bladed, lollipop ax, and was going to defend herself with it before it explained.

The house was then on fire as Helena decided to take Elfo out of the house as Luci nodded by her wordless gesture to go after Bean, and he did, but she ended up getting lost.

Helena though tripped and fell into a trap door while holding onto the Half-Elf as she realized to her own horror, she couldn't fly as her wings looked to have been affected by the blast with some holes in them, and was falling deeper and deeper into a cavern of sorts, and Elfo by some odd magic occurring, landed on top of Luci before they went to find Bean after realizing Helena was missing.

Meanwhile with Bean, she followed the two twins into the halls of this enchanted house, and looked wary as she tripped a tripwire before dodging three, very large jawbreakers that could have easily killed her off, and glared as she heard the twins giggle once again, then Bean was then caught in another trap, "Caramel strips?"

Bean seeing both Hansel and Gretel giggling, took off after them while leaving her boots behind, before screaming as when she went to go down to the basement, they activated the slide diction as she slid all the way down into a large, Cotton Candy trap while she yelled and grunted to get out of its sticky yet sweet goodness from seeing dead bodies in it as well, and recalled what Hansel said as she saw the missing people from the reports all around the candy before using her ax to get out, and land to see the body parts of said people then.

"Okay, guys? Okay. All right, the creepy laughter has to stop before we can have a real conversation. Guys, give yourselves up. Everyone will understand why you went crazy after the Witch imprisoned you for so many years." Bean tells them while being cautious before hearing Gretel echoed to her in a way she didn't like, "Oh, we were crazy long before we met the Witch-" and it was Hansel that stated it next to gross Bean out, "We ate our parents."

"And then the Witch kidnapped you?" Bean asked then as not known to her, as she couldn't find them, Hansel was behind her and told her then, "Nein, she adopted us und gave us candy, but not enough. So we tied her to the sink and started eating people."

Elfo saw this as Luci and he managed to find the basement due to the house, "Bean! Behind you!" Luci states to her then, "Bean, kill him. Do not wuss out." She looked ready to get She faulted and tells them while not at all knowing Gretel was sneaking up behind her, "I don't think I can." She accidentally killed the female twin via her skull and the axe.

"Gretel, no! We were supposed to grow old together and eat a family." He charged at her and with untold strength (mostly due to her fear), she lifted the axe and killed him as well.

"Bean, look at me…. On second thought, don't look at me, look at the corpses. You did it. You finally killed someone, intentionally. I am so proud of you." And Bean denied him then, "It was self-defense." Luci disagreed with her as Elfo didn't know who to look at as he kept looking at both Bean and the demon, "Don't be modest. You killed these mentally ill siblings fair and square."

"And I got roasted alive," Elfo decided to add before he grew worried and states to Bean as she froze like Luci then, "Oh crap I forgot about Hel, she fell into a weird trap door!"

Bean was fearful at that as recalling Lucifer pulling her aside yesterday, she grabbed (to confuse the two males) an odd whistle that looked like a cat of sorts, and blew into it.

In a sudden, hellish-like flames, Lucifer appeared while narrowing her orbs at quickly guessing what was going on here, and also looked to be grateful at her for calling her out, "I take it that you cannot find my Charge?"

Seeing their looks, she closed her eyes before quickly opening them with a sudden growl of mixed anger and surprise before telling them, firmly, "Go, I will fetch her from her kidnapper and do not blow up this house." She looked pointedly at Luci as she vanished.

---

"As rewarding as it is to kill people, nothing feels better than sparing the life of one innocent person." Bean states to the crowd as she eyed Helena who was half-better while seeing she winced in place, and knew her father would have questions for them both after seeing her, Lucifer, and Helena's state afterward as despite what the Demon also stated… The house blew up, still.

King Zøg gave his child a single nod as the clasps came off her, and she tells them in gratitude, "You saved my life and rid me of that awful curse. It's been a horrible ordeal… But my one solace is knowing I can return to my beautiful candy home. And spend my remaining years tending to my twin sister who lives in the attic." The Old Witch, Gwen that is, states to them and Helena and the others had wary looks on that.

"Or, um, you could do something else," Elfo decided to speak up then, "Traveling is fun, too. Right? Bye-bye, now." She took off on her broom while not hearing Luci quickly blame Elfo for said issue.

"And now, the main event! Princess Tiabeanie, step forward." King Zøg tells his child as she looked at him expectantly, "For outstanding bravery, foresight, and wisdom, I hereby award…" Helena narrowed her eyes at this before seeing her girls and her Demonic Mother held her back as she sighed at the outcome, "Me this medal for the extraordinary parenting that turned you from a worthless, bucktoothed degenerate, to a ruthless executioner with a beautiful smile."

Helena did overhear like Luci and a few of her girls did, as Alana was currently breaking the news to her folks back home, "I'm proud of you, Beanie." Bean looked at her in small surprise at that and states, "Really?" He nodded before telling her then, "Not that you care what I think."

"Yeah, I'm kinda cool that way," she admits as they hugged it out, and she whispered to him then, "Thanks, Pops. Mention my buckteeth again and I'll use them to bite out your spinal cord." King Zøg held back a chuckle while whispering back, "That's my girl."

King Zøg then turned to Helena as she looked sheepish then as her girls, Bean and Co., and even Lucifer alongside Maria hid some laughter as he looked ready to faint, "Perhaps it's a bad time to mention I may or may not have Soulmated to a Woodaga High Elf Nymph, and the heiress of their Clan." He fainted then after Luci states to worry him over, "Ya, and the Heiress plans to bring her clan over real soon."

I hoped that you guys enjoyed that as the next chapter will be a tiny timeskip of sorts to the next episode, and I decided to follow through a guest person PMing this idea to add the "Seven Mortal Sins" into the story, as I did hinted of Lucifer as such.

Do expect to see more of them in my other fics, and maybe a few others as well.

Now that's it for now, until the next chapter, farewell until the next exciting chapter!
