And there is only one chapter left until we continue with the other story. I will have to see when I will use the phoenix shape.
Anyway, all other questions will be answered in The Cuphead Show adaptation.
Since I'm going to make the adaptation like Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart, all the characters will also react differently to Alicia. Therefore, only Sally and Bon Bon will have good contact with Alicia.
I'm not sure about TV Tropes yet. Not because it doesn't get as much attention. More because I have the feeling that it's going in the other direction. But if you want it I could do it.
Until then.
Above the islands, Alicia flew in her Wyvern form and had the others on her back. The joy was great because the Batderson sisters had been defeated and were no longer a danger to them and the children on the island. "You should have seen the faces of those three witches when they realized we weren't real," Cuphead said. Thanks to Blood's help, they were able to trick the three sisters and easily escape before the devil or anyone saw them. But two things were not solved yet.
First, what were they supposed to do with the book? Locking it away was easy, but then what? As far as I know, Max and Allison opened the book and lured the witches to them in the first place. Alicia knew that Cuphead would open the book, so she had to hide it somewhere where even he wouldn't find it. And that alone was a challenge. And then there was the thing with Gemma. How was she supposed to get home? Even Alicia and Cuppy didn't know how to get back to Alicia's apartment. Maybe through a portal?
"The main thing is that the Batderson are defeated and can't harm anyone anymore, right Gemma?" asked Mugman looking at her. She was surprised by the view from the top and hadn't noticed that Mugman was talking to her. "Huh? Oh, yeah, sure," she said in a sad voice. Everyone heard that. Alicia too. "You miss your home, don't you?" asked Blood as he sat cross-legged and looked at her. She nodded "Yes I miss my home Mystic Willows very much but there is another thing..." it was almost embarrassing to talk about but it had to come out. "I'm a total loser when it comes to magic".
But no one condemned her for it. They stroked and hugged her so that she felt better than before. Blood, however, brooded. The place looked familiar. "Tell me, Gemma, can you tell me more about your home?" he asked her. She nodded and told him everything she knew. It was not long before Alicia saw the clearing from above where the cottage was located. She landed next to the cottage, which was not even up to her knee. Everyone slid down her tail and landed in front of the front door.
With Blood last, she turned back into a human and went inside with her bag to the cottage where Cuphead, Cuppy and Mugman were waiting for her. Blood and Gemma stayed outside and continued talking. "If you want, I can give you lessons since our magic is the same," he explained. She nodded and they both went behind the house to practice in peace. "Real bummer we couldn't go trick-or-treating this year" Cuphead said annoyed as he sat on the couch with his empty pumpkin bucket. Mugman and Cuppy followed him and sat down next to him. The sad faces were impossible to ignore. "Maybe cupcakes will cheer you up" said Alicia as she went into the kitchen and came back with a tray full of pumpkin cupcakes.
"Oh boy cupcakes!" all three said as they each took one and ate it with relish. Alicia was happy that the cupcakes tasted good to them. She left the tray on the small table in front of the couch and went into the guest room that was next to the stairs. Alright book, let's hide you. She took the book out of her bag and twitched slightly as both eyes opened and closed. Fortunately, I don't have to keep it. She thought to herself as she searched for a suitable hiding place. The guest room was not as big as the bedroom of the two boys. With three beds, two closets and a desk, the room was already quite small.
Besides Alicia, Cuppy and Blood also slept in this room. Of course, each had his own bed. Alicia's was just to the right of the door. A small round window was directly above the bed in front of which three small flowers danced back and forth. They were asleep now, though, and you could hear little snores. She had to grin when she heard that until she focused again on the appropriate hiding place. While she was doing that, Blood and Gemma kept practicing and managed to use one or two spells that Gemma had problems with in the beginning. "You're really good, you should be a teacher" Gemma said which made Blood blush a little. "Well, I'm not really a good teacher" he said, scratching the back of his head.
While it went on peacefully in the cottage, in the underworld the Devil, Henchman and King Dice followed the screaming noises that led them in front of the boiler room. "Why is the boiler room closed?" asked the devil as he removed the lock from the door and opened it. A big cloud of smoke came out of the door followed by the three sisters who were slightly burned. "I want my book" said Bellatrix as she walked past the devil and continued to follow the hall until she and her sisters fell short.
While Bellatrix is still seething over her sisters and herself being tricked into falling into Alicia and the gang's trap, Vila slowly turned around to notice the Devil, King Dice and Henchman standing behind her and her sisters. The Devil,with his trident in hand, looking all menacing suddenly put on a fake smile as he waved at her as he greeted, "Hello"."Hello," Vila replied politely.
Suddenly, her smile dropped into a scared look as she realised who she was talking to. Even Jinx looked terrified as she stuttered in fright. "Uh-oh," Vila whimpered in dread before she started to tap at Bellatrix's back, trying to get her attention. "Bell-Bella? Bella!". Bellatrix growls in frustration as she snapped, "Vila! How many times do I need to remind you to not call me…". "Bella!" Vila yelped urgently. "Look!". Irritated, Bellatrix turns and her angry face drops into a mask of horror and fear upon noticing the dark and furry entity wielding the trident and standing menacingly before her sisters and herself.
The Devil continues to stand there with his minions with a stone cold look. "Th-the Devil!" Bellatrix exclaimed, horrified. Overcome with terror, Vila and Jinx shrieked as they leapt into their older sister's arms as Vila whimpers, "Hold me!". Despite angry and confused to see the three witches in his domain, the Devil was amused by their antics and their fear of him. Running a finger over one of the spikes prongs of his trident, the Devil causally quipped, "Ladies these days… They just can't get enough of me".
King Dice wasn't sure if he should roll his eyes or leave it alone. But when he saw the youngest sister, a bad feeling came up in him. Jinx, on the other hand, was more than happy to see him again. So much so that she walked away from her sisters and completely ignored the devil. "Jinx, what are you doing?" said Bellatrix, still frightened. "Going to my dream man" she said, gently stroking King Dice's cheeks with her claws. "Uh yes I know ladies that I am a Casanova but..." before he could say anything he was hugged tightly by her.
At the sight the devil must think very much of Alicia and how it would be if he would hug her. Already the thought of it pleased him very much. "I think I'll spare you three witches if you do me a favor" Bellatrix and Vila, still hugging each other, nodded hysterically as the devil stared at them with his yellow eyes. Three Wanted posters appeared in his right hand. Two of them showed Cuphead and Cuppy while the last one showed Alicia. "Bring me the two cups and the woman and I'll grant each of you a wish" when they heard that, the fear in their eyes disappeared. "Sure thing!" said Bellatrix as she took the posters and pulled on Jinx's ear so she would come with them.
All three disappeared from the underworld through the same gate from which they came. "All right, where are we going to look for them?" asked Vila as she managed to fly next to Bellatrix despite her fat body. "Well I guess they have my book and when they open it a beam of light appears that will lead us right to them when I do this!" She pursed her lips together and exclaimed "Ohhh book!".
This one woke up and was now in Alicia's closet. But that did not bother the book. Not even when the door opened and Cuphead reached for the book. "I think we'd better not open the book" said Mugman as he looked anxiously at the book that was staring at him with both eyes. "Oh nonsense with gravy what can happen the old scarecrows are already dead" he said and opened the book from which came a silver beam of light that Gemma and Blood noticed. Cuppy and Alicia also noticed that he had opened the book and immediately went to the guest room where Mugman left to avoid getting in trouble.
But Blood and Gemma knew that it didn't mean anything good when the book was open. And it was when the three sisters saw the beam of light from a distance. "Close the book now!" said Gemma as she and Blood entered the guest room with Alicia and Cuppy. "Why? The scarecrows are dead and can't do anything to us anymore" Cuphead said as he closed the book and sat on Alicia's bed with his arms crossed. Oh man not again. Alicia knew he would sulk now, so she asked Blood and Gemma to leave the room for a moment.
"Let's see how long this takes" Blood said as he sat down next to Mugman and was about to eat one of the cupcakes when the three suddenly heard a loud noise coming from the guest room. Gemma went to the door and listened if everything was alright. "I don't hear anything" she said as Blood leaned against the door trying to hear something as well. But he heard nothing either and was unsure when he opened the door and saw no one. "Alicia, Cuppy, Cuphead?" he asked as he slowly walked into the room and looked around. It looked deserted. "Hey she's asleep in bed" Mugman said as he tried to remove the covers from Alicia's bed. But neither Alicia nor either of the Cupheads came out from under it. It was Jinx who frightened him. "Trick or Treat!" she said.
Blood and Gemma saw her and moved back a little with Mugman until their backs almost touched Blood's and Cuppy's closet from which Bellatrix and Vila came. "Looking for this?" asked Bellatrix as she held her spell book in one hand and the shrunken Alicia in a small jar in the other. "Or this?" said Vila as she captured the two Cupheads in a cloth sack. Startled by this, Mugman and Gemma were about to run out of the room when Bellatrix opened the book from which came a green lightning.
But Blood jumped in between and was caught by the lightning and landed injured on Alicia's bed. "No Blood!" screamed Alicia as she hit the glass. "Hoho what a shame it was just starting to be fun!" said Bellatrix as she and her two sisters laughed. "Wolf down" said Jinx as she saw the now unconscious Wolf. "Come, sisters. The Devil is waiting for his two Souls and his Queen!" Bellatrix said as she and her sister prepared to leave. "Put us down you old Scarecrows!" Cuphead said as he moved back and forth in the bag. "I think we'll hand him over first or shall we eat his Soul first?" Bellatrix said as she and the others flew out the window she came from. "No Alicia, Cuphead and Cuppy!" yelled Mugman as he looked out the window and only saw their silhouettes in the full moon.
"Ah my head" Blood said as he slowly stood up and was helped back up properly by Gemma and Mugman. "Oh thank God you're all right" said Gemma as she snuggled up to him along with Mugman. "Yeah I'm fine but the spell really shook me up" Blood said as he shook his head and slowly started to see clearly again and not all blurry. He hadn't forgotten about Alicia and the two Cupheads. "Come on let's go find them!" he said as he got up and walked out of the guest room. "But where are they supposed to be?" asked Gemma.
The question was not difficult to answer. There was only one on the island who would like to have the souls of the two Cupheads and Alicia as his queen. The devil. This one sat on his throne and tapped impatiently on the right armrest. "Where are those witch sisters?" he growled as the door to his throne room opened and they entered. "Sorry we're late devil but we got what you were looking for" said Bellatrix as she retrieved from her cloak the glass Alicia was in. "So you really found her?" said the devil as he approached her and took the glass. Alicia could not ignore the large shadow. Just like the grin. Great, I'm in his clutches again.
"I like you more like this my queen" said the devil as he reached into the glass and tried to grab her. But Alicia tried to avoid his claws until he surrounded her and grabbed her. He held her tightly in his hand which she felt. She slowly ran out of air and breathed hysterically while looking at him with fear in her eyes. "What about our wish?" asked Bellatrix as she dropped the cloth bag Cuphead and Cuppy were in at his feet. He looks at her annoyed while Alicia tries to escape from his grip.
He had not forgotten that the three witches had only done the job to get one wish each from him. "You will get your wish when Alicia marries me and is crowned" he said and disappeared in a puff of smoke together with the cloth bag. The three sisters were already angry. Bellatrix at least. Vila was just confused while Jinx was looking for her dream man who was hiding from her. But Bellatrix is not so easily fooled. No, she wanted to take revenge on the little cup for calling her a scarecrow. "I'm going to get that Cuphead and drink his soul!" she said, and made her way to them.
Meanwhile, the devil took Alicia to his own bedchamber. It was a little smaller than the other devil's, but he didn't seem to mind. He was not here to sleep but to force her to marry him. "Well then, my dearest Alicia" he lifted her up so that she was at his eye level. She tried again to escape from his grip, but again she had no luck and only felt how tightly he gripped her.
"I'll ask you again" he turns to face her so she can look him straight in the yellow eyes. "Do you want to-" "No way!" she interrupted him while sticking out her tongue. Flames appeared on his fur and he growled again. But he calmed down and squeezed her even tighter with his hand. She felt her rib bones begin to crack and ache. "I can let you go anytime if you marry me" he said and lifted her chin up with his claw. Tears of pain ran down her cheeks.
She knew he would say that. But she was already taken and married. One devil is enough for me, I don't need another one running after me. "You wouldn't hurt me, would you?" she asked him as she breathed in and out. "Of course not my dearest but if you don't decide I could take other measures" Wait what? With his other hand he slowly went under her. Oh no please don't tell me that... She felt something under her and tried with all her might to free herself from his hand. It worked and she fell onto the bed and saw that her disguise, which she wear both as a human and as a demon below, was slightly open. Oh you damn! She knew what he was up to and was more than angry. "Don't you like it my dearest?" "Not really my devil wouldn't even dare to do something like that!" she said in a growling voice as he tried to grab her again.
But the door opened and two familiar shadows appeared. It was Cuphead and Cuppy who were sweaty and relieved to have finally found Alicia. She was happy too and ran to them but was grabbed by the devil's hand which pulled her up by her tail. She now hung upside down and looked at the devil who was now more than angry. "You stay here and you will marry me!". She rolled her eyes. Both Cupheads did the same when they heard that. "For the last time Devil she's already taken!" "Yeah, she already got a furry lover with horns and a trident!". Angry at this, he was on fire again and accidentally threw Alicia away, which luckily landed in Cuphead's hand.
Furious about this, he was now completely on fire and roared diabolically. "I hate to push, but I think we'd better get out of here!" Alicia suggested. Cuphead and Cuppy nodded. "Yeah we better run unless we want to end up as a barbecue!". With Alicia in his hand, both cups ran out of the bedchamber. The devil did not even notice. Only when he hears the door slam did he realize that the three were no longer in the room. "Grrr Bring me my finest demons and stop the three from escaping from the underworld!" roars the devil.
The three ran and looked for a way out. Well Cuphead and Cuppy ran. Alicia sat protected only in his closed hands. He did not want to lose her. "We need to find an elevator!" said Cuppy as he and Cuphead ran around the corner and stopped. They were surrounded by the First Finest Demons. "Damn, and what do we do now?" asked Cuphead as he and Cuppy looked for a way out. Neither could ignore the devil's mischievous laugh. "Hahahahaha!Evasion is futile you three" said the devil as two demons let him through.
They really could not escape. Alicia didn't know what to do either. Oh please tell me a miracle will happen. She hoped it very much. And so it did. All three began to glow brightly and dissolved into small particles. "What the-" shocked not only the devil but also the demons. He growled even more than before and his fur started to burn again. The demons disappeared before the devil went completely berserk and burned everything around him. "I hate those cups!" he said and disappeared in a cloud of smoke with his trident.
The freak out was heard by the witches. "So the three of them are no longer here in the Underworld," Bellatrix said with a grin. Finally she could get her revenge. "Come on sister, we have to brew a potion before the sun rises!" Bellatrix said as she flew ahead followed by the others. "But do we have all the ingredients?" asked Vila. But Bellatrix did not answer her, but flew on until they saw the gate that brought them to the surface. All three flew out and decided to first look for a place where they could brew the potion. "Jinx you attract as many children as possible" Bellatrix ordered her. She nodded and disappeared. "Vila you and I will look for a place where we can brew the potion" Vila nodded and they both flew on until they came across an old mansion in the city. They landed and went into the mansion which had everything they needed to brew the potion.
Luckily Bellatrix had the ingredients in her cloak and could brew the potion while Vila prepared the rest. Meanwhile, Cuphead and Cuppy reappeared on the surface and seem to be not far from the graveyard. "Why are we next to the cemetery?" asked Cuppy, confused. Cuphead was about to open his mouth when he saw the others. They ran towards them with open arms and were very happy to see the three of them again. Even though they almost missed Alicia because of her small size.
"I'm glad the spell worked," Gemma said with relief, which confused the three of them. "Wait, that was you?!" asked Alicia as Gemma nodded. "Wow that was awesome!" said Alicia as she clapped her hands. Cuppy clapped as well only Cuphead smiled as he still held the shrunken Alicia in his hands. "But Alicia's little problem I can solve" said Blood as he nodded to Cuphead. He understood and put Alicia on the floor before the crystal in Blood's wand lit up. Alicia lit up as well and grew back to normal size. "You could have saved that joke" she said slightly annoyed. Blood, however, smiled smugly. He couldn't help himself, and she knew it. But suddenly the six heard someone singing. It sounded like a siren's voice.
Come little children
I'll take thee away
Into a land of enchantment
Come little children
The time's come to play
Here in my garden of shadows
Follow sweet children
I'll show thee the way
Through all the pain
And the sorrows
Weep not poor children
For life is this way
Murdering beauty and passions
Hush now dear children
It must be this way
Too weary of life
And deceptions
Rest now my children
For soon we'll away
Into the calm and the quiet
Come little children
I'll take thee away
Into a land of enchantment
Come little children
The time's come to play
Here in my garden of shadows
Everyone looked up where they saw Jinx flying above them. They couldn't miss the horde of children walking along the streets. They looked enchanted and followed Jinx in their pajamas. "Oh no, the kids are bewitched!" said Alicia as she walked up to a kitten who didn't notice her and kept walking. "Hey wake up guys!" yelled Cuphead at a humanoid kid with a screw for a head taking a teddy bear with him. "They can't hear us!" said Gemma as she tried to shake a muffin child awake. "They can't because they're going to the witches," said Alicia.
When she said that, they all nodded and followed the children. They led them to the old mansion in front of whose fence the children stopped. "We have to go in there and destroy the potion!" said Gemma as she and the others came out from behind the fence. "All right, here's the plan". "So what do we do?" asked Cuphead as everyone looked at him. "Live bait!". Bellatrix was almost finished brewing the potion when there was a knock at the door and Vila opened it. "Oh Bellatrix look who's here!" she said as she walked from the door and Cuphead walked to them.
"It looks like our prey is already coming to us willingly!" said Bellatrix as she looks to her sisters. "But to be sure, tie him to the chair so he can't escape!". Before he could do anything Cuphead was already sitting on the chair and tied up. Please hurry! While the three sisters were busy with him, Alicia and Gemma climbed out of a window into the room. "Hey you!" yelled Gemma as the three sisters turned around who were just trying to get the potion into Cuphead's mouth. The latter resisted and bit Vila's fingers. "You have no powers here, you fool!" Alicia said. But the three sisters only laughed until they were blinded by a bright light that looked very much like sunrise. "Ahhh the daylight!" all three witches screamed while Gemma released Cuphead and he tipped over the cauldron containing the potion. "Wait, I want to see them turn to dust!" said Cuphead as he stood in the doorway until Alicia pulled him along.
But they did not crumble into dust, they just lay on the floor. "Wait, we're not turning to dust!" said Bellatrix as she stood up and looked out the window where she saw the bottom of the light. It was a small flare coming from Blood's wand. "Those brats tricked us again!" growled Bellatrix. "And they tipped over the cauldron" "There's just enough for one child" said Vila. Jinx gave Bellatrix a small bottle in which they put the remaining potion in the cauldron. "Oh joy! What luck!" Bellatrix said as she corked the bottle. "This is perfect for that little cupheaded brat!", "But we have children".
Vila opened the windows and points to the horde of children standing in front of the mansion "And we can brew more potions since we have the book". But Bellatrix knows that is not possible. "We don't have time!" she growled as she walked to the door and stretched her wings "An old scarecrow..." Vila and Jinx went to her "He really hurt your feelings?" asked Vila as the oldest sister nodded. "You know, I always wanted a child..." Vila and Jinx were confused.
"And now I think I'll have one..." Her two sisters were still confused as to what she meant. They sucked the children's souls out why would they want to have children of their own? "On toast!" laughed Bellatrix as she took to the skies. Her two sisters followed her while Vila caught Cuphead's scent and followed.
These ran as fast as they could back to the cemetery where it was safe. Alicia was in her wolf form and had both Cupheads and Mugman on her back while Blood ran after them and Gemma flew on her broom. "We must hurry before they catch us!" Gemma said as she flew ahead followed by Alicia and Blood. The latter looked around again but saw nothing. "Why the hurry? They don't even have any broomsticks like you do" he leans on Cuppy "There's no way they could possibly... a cackling laugh interrupted him when they saw the shadows of the three sisters
"Why would we need flimsy brooms when we can fly?" Gemma bluntly gives Cuphead a "You were saying?" look as he gulps nervously. Bellatrix flew down to Alicia "Pull over! Let me see your driver's permit" she laughed while Cuphead, Cuppy and Mugman screamed in terror. But Alicia picked up more speed when she saw the graveyard. "Hang on!" she said as she jumped over the gate of the graveyard "Whoa!, Ahh, Yee-hah!" screamed the three cups on her back. "Hurry! Hurry!" Gemma shouted as she and Blood arrived at the cemetery and opened the gate and immediately closed it before the three witches could enter.
But what no one could have expected was the undead that appeared behind Blood and grabbed him. "Gemma run!" he yelled as he tried to break away from the undead. "Eddie! Eddie, listen to me!" said Bellatrix as the undead looked at her and took Blood's carving knife that was in his cloak "Kill him if you have to! Just bring me that cup, that cuphead!" she said as Eddie looked from Blood to her and then to the knife he was slowly bringing to his mouth. "Don't dawdle! Come along now! Kill him!" Bellatrix shouted as she held onto the gate and looked at Eddie.
The latter cut away the strings with the knife while moths flew out of his mouth. Blood smelled the bad breath and held his nose while Eddie looked at Bellatrix. "You bucktoothed, mop-riding firefly from hell!" he shouted at her and seems very pleased about it. Bellatrix, however, did not and growled even more. "I've waited centuries to say that", "Well, say what you want just don't breathe on me" Blood still held his nose until Eddie let him go. "Eddie! I killed you once! I shall kill you again you maggoty malfeasance" Bellatrix said as she let go of the gate and flew away. When they no longer saw the sisters, the two ran to the others who had meanwhile hidden in one of the mausoleums. "Don't take another step you..." said Alicia as she walked over to Eddie holding both arms up with a stick in her hand "Wait, wait, wait he's a good zombie!" said Blood as he stood in front of Alicia.
Seriously? She did not believe him. But Gemma believed him and went to Eddie. "Hi Edward Railson" he smiled and waved back at her while Alicia put the stick down and asked the other to come out of the mausoleum they were hiding in. "You'll be safe in here" Eddie said as he places Cuphead in an open grave "And you're sure about this?" asked Cuphead as Eddie nodded his head. Alicia and the others meanwhile made sure that Cuphead would not be caught by the three witches.
Just in time, because in the horizon Alicia saw the three witches arrive. "Here they come!" shouted Blood "Eddie protect Cuphead and don't let him out of your sight!" he nodded and jumped into the open grave. "For the last time, prepare to meet thy doom!" Bellatrix screamed as she tried to grab Cuphead, but Cuphead and Eddie ducked in time. "Nah nah you didn't get us and our blood!" growling and disgusted the sisters turned around "For the very last time we don't drink blood!".
"You little pest. I've had enough of you!" Eddie shouted, which made Bellatrix even angrier. But Bellatrix had enough and approached him "Eddie" "Go to hell!" he yelled at her. "Oh, I've been there, thank you. Twice, in fact. I found it quite lovely" Confused about this, he realized too late that Vila tore his head off his body, which frightened Cuphead so much that he ran out of the tomb and was grabbed by Bellatrix. "Gotcha you little pest!" she fetched the potion from the cloak, removed the cork and held the bottle to Cuphead's mouth. Cuphead still had it closed and continued to resist until Alicia grabbed the potion and pulled on it until Bellatrix let go. "Give me that Potion!".
But Alicia shook her head "Put him down or I'll destroy it!" Bellatrix held Cuphead by the sweater and stretched out her arm, keeping her sharp claws around Cuphead's non-existent neck. "Destroy it and he dies!". Alicia growled in anger. She knew what Max did in the movie and did it too. "Alicia no!" screamed Cuphead as he watched her drink the entire potion. Bellatrix laughed and dropped Cuphead, which was caught by Blood. Alicia began to glow as her soul slowly emerged. "Now you have no choice but to take my soul!", "What a fool to give up thy life for thy friend's!" she grabbed Alicia and landed on the ground of the cemetery. "No sister, this is holy ground!" but Bellatrix didn't hear her but held Alicia tightly in her arms "Bella I'm coming!" said Vila as she suddenly got stuck between two trees.
"Damn it Vila why do you have to get stuck now of all times!" said Jinx annoyed as she tried to push Vila out of the two trees. But the others tried to prevent that and pulled on the two capes. "Hey stop it!" they both yelled but Blood and the others didn't stop and kept pulling. "I'm going to teach you a lesson you'll never forget!" Bellatrix said as she slowly began to absorb her soul. But the morning light interrupted her. Vila and Jinx flew backwards out of the tree and landed on a mausoleum as they slowly began to glow. The curse that kept them forever young was now broken and the sister slowly began to cease to exist as they shot several beams of light from them. "Uh-oh good bye!" both sisters said as they exploded.
Bellatrix, however, became a stone statue that held Alicia in its claws until she escaped from its grip. She stepped back a bit as the statue exploded. "Alicia are you okay?" asked Blood as he walked over to her. "Yeah, I think so" she felt someone hugging her legs. It was the three mug brothers and Gemma who were glad she was okay. "You saved my life" said Cuphead "Well, I had to. I'm your big sister"
When he heard that, he cried and hugged her even more. The three sisters were defeated but Gemma still had to find a way home. "Hey what's that?" asked Mugman as he pointed to a portal that appeared in front of the mausoleum. It showed a small square with crystal statues that broke and showed the adult wizards and witches. "My home" said Gemma as she walked to the portal and turned to face the others. "I guess this means goodbye then?" asked Alicia as Gemma nodded. The five waved at her while Gemma walked to the portal and was ready to enter it but she decided to thank the others with a hug before going into her world.
Her journey had changed her. She was no longer weak but strong. And all thanks to Alicia, Blood and the three brothers.
Song: Come little Children by James Horner
