Goliath decided to check Elisa's apartment in case she went home. He was worried about her, no-one could heal as fast as she did, not even Gargoyles. He landed on the balcony and found the doors open. He went in.
"Elisa?" He called. Then she came out of her room and Goliath couldn't believe his eyes. Her hair had bright red streaks in it, her make up was thick and black around her eyes, with her mouth being as red as her streaks. Her outfit was a skin tight, PVC cat suit with red leather gloves. The amulet around her neck glowing red.
"That's better. Hi there, big guy." Zathandra said, walking to him and putting her arms around his shoulders. Goliath backed away.
"Elisa, what has happened to you?" Goliath asked.
"I thought it might be nice for a change. Don't you like it?" Zathandra said.
"Elisa, are you alright?" Goliath asked.
"Why shouldn't I be? I'm smart, beautiful, a good job, then I have you to love me. I choose well." Zathandra said, moving towards Goliath again. He again backed away, but also noticed the amulet.
"Where did you get that amulet?" Goliath asked.
"I thought you left it for me? You are the best to me. How can I thank you?" Zathandra said.
"Elisa, what has gotten into you? This is not like you." Goliath said.
"I've changed for you to make our relationship more exciting." Zathandra said, looking disappointed.
"Elisa, you do not need to prove anything to me, I love you as you were and as you are." Goliath said.
"So you'll do anything for me?" Zathandra said.
"You know I would." Goliath said.
"Then you'll do this for me? Make our relationship more exciting?" Zathandra said, linking her arms around his neck. Goliath took her hands in his.
"Elisa, something is obviously wrong. This is not the way you would normally act. I think that it has something to do with that Amulet." Goliath said.
"You're rejecting me? But I thought you loved me?" Zathandra said, looking offended.
"I do love you, but you are not acting like yourself and I cannot take advantage of that." Goliath said. Zathandra turned from him.
"Fine, then have it your way." Zathandra said. Using the power of the Amulet, she hit him with a powerful blast that forced him through the wall. He was unconscious. Suddenly, her eyes returned to normal when she realised what she had done.
"Goliath!" Elisa said. Then Zathandra took over.
"I'll go somewhere they will appreciate my power." Zathandra said. Then she disappeared.
Lex and Hudson regrouped at the castle 3 hours. They were waiting for Goliath and Brooklyn to return. Broadway came to greet them.
"Any sign of Elisa?" Broadway said.
"None." Hudson said.
"We searched the city. What about Goliath and Brooklyn?" Lex said.
"We haven't seen them." Broadway said.
"They should be back by now." Lex said. Then Brooklyn landed, nursing a bad head.
"Hey Brooklyn, are you alright?" Broadway said.
"No, I'll tell you, she really packs a punch." Brooklyn said.
"Who?" Hudson said.
"Elisa, I found her on the Westside of town and we were jumped by a gang of thugs. I was about to help her out, when some sort of energy came out of her hands and stopped them. When I asked her what was wrong and tried to get her back here, she turned on me. Then she disappeared. It was so strange." Brooklyn said.
"Have you seen Goliath?" Hudson said.
"No, but hopefully, if he finds her, he can talk to her. Also, does anyone know where she got that amulet from?" Brooklyn said.
"What Amulet?" Angela said, coming around the corner. Then Fox came up.
"There was an amulet next to her bed when she woke up this morning. She assumed it was from Goliath." Fox said.
"Well, it gave her a huge boost of power." Brooklyn said.
"We have to find out what that amulet is doing to Elisa." Hudson said. Then Goliath landed.
"That was not Elisa." Goliath said.
"Goliath, are you alright?" Brooklyn said, noticing the cut on his head.
"I found Elisa in her apartment and she was not herself. She was acting strangely and out of character. When I would not do as she asked, she attacked me with powers I had no idea she had. Something to do with the amulet she is wearing." Goliath said.
"I had a run in with her too, she used her powers on me too." Brooklyn said.
"And you have no idea where this amulet came from?" Angela asked.
"No, how would I know?" Goliath asked.
"Elisa found the amulet in a box next to her bed when she woke up this morning and assumed it was from you." Fox said.
"I gave her nothing. We need to find out about that amulet and where it came from." Goliath said. Then Xanatos came out.
"Goliath, you have to see this." Xanatos said. The Gargoyles followed Xanatos in the castle.
"What is it Xanatos?" Goliath asked.
"There's a powerful force in downtown New York randomly attacking humans and destroying everything. It's all over the news." Xanatos said. He turned on the TV set.
"Downtown New York is in the midst of destruction from a powerful unknown force. Authorities are issuing a security one warning to all citizens telling them to stay out of the area." The newscaster said. There was a close up of the source of the destruction.
"Is that Elisa?" Broadway said.
"Yes, and we have to go and stop her. Angela, Broadway, we need you to help, I am allowing you both to leave the castle." Goliath said.
"We're ready, Goliath." Angela said.
"You can count on us." Broadway said
"Is that the Amulet?" Hudson said.
"Yes, Xanatos try and find out all you can about that Amulet. The rest of us will and face her. Come." Goliath said. They all jumped off the top of the tower and glided towards down town.
