Chapter 1

10 years later

It was July 31st, 2049. Ten years had passed and Xacron had stayed peaceful. Oichi had made large changes to the island kingdom. With the help of Mikey and her uncle they rebuilt the city, reshaping it, building it back up to really earn its new name as the island of second chances. Through the years, Mikey worked within the underwater base that was left to him by Star's mother. Using the advance technology down there he was able to create a device that would help rise the land, giving more space to the island. It allowed more building and homes to be built. There was also a large bridge that now stretched to Ravenwood and Xacron. With the new cars building built It no longer took a week to get from one place to another, only a couple of hours. Xacron was now a mixture of modern and futuristic architecture. Oichi, some of her family, and her close friends lived on a separate part of the island now. Her castle was made towards the back with large white and blue buildings.

Within the castle, Oichi was walking through it. Even in her late forties she still looked the same from 10 years ago. She was wearing a long white and red chic printed maxi dress. Her hair was mixed with blue and black and was very long nearly past her back. She walked to a room and stopped in front of it. She smiles and opens it. "Mya darling? Are you almost ready? Soon the fire festival will start." She looked around in a light green room with clothes thrown everywhere. Oichi sighs. 'Not again…' "Mya!" She yells out walking into the room. She heard a groan. Walking to the closet and over the piles of clothes she peaks in and saw her five-year-old daughter Mya pouting. She was had long straight black hair and beautiful bright red eyes. She was wearing a blue floral striped dress. "Mya what are you doing?" "I can't find anything to wear!" She says crossing her arms. Oichi sighs. "Mya what you have on is fine. Come now before we are late, don't you want to get some food before the festival starts?" Mya's eyes lit up. "Yes!" She got up and ran through her room looking for her shoes. Oichi sighs. "And we need to talk about this room of yours…."

Oichi sat down on the bed covered with clothes. Mya was the child of Oichi and Deacon. Five years ago, they had a fiery one-night stand. Something she thought would never happen. She did not regret it and she wouldn't lie to herself. It was wonderful and she got a lot of pent-up stress out but she did feel guilty. She knew she and Deacon would be nothing more then just that one night. Two months later she found out she was pregnant. Oichi sighs crossing her legs. Her grandfather nearly had a heart attack when she learned Deacon was the father. While Jess teased her a little about it.

"Hey mama!" Mya says skipping over with her shoes. "Will dad be there?" She asked. "I don't know sweetie." Mya frowned. "Oh…" Oichi chuckled and pats her head. "Come on, your siblings are meeting us at the seafood stand." Mya smiles and grabs her hand. They walked out right when Lulu was walking up. "I'm here to clean her room." She says smiling. Oichi chuckled. "Thank you, Lulu. I don't know what I would do without you." Lulu smiles and bows as they walked away. Mya giggles skipping as Oichi walked.

Now they are both 9 years old with red hair, Elias had green eyes like Aerith and Caleb had Red eyes. They both where in their room getting to leave for the festival. "Boys! hurry up!" Jayden shouted from down stairs. They chuckle and ran downstairs after putt their converse on, Jayden standing there next to Aerith was wearing a Maternity Midnight Navy Garden Pink Floral dress and midnight navy flats.

Aerith smiled at the boys "About time my dears" they smile at her "mom we are ready!" they both say at the same time. Aerith chuckles has Jayden smiles "Lets get going, they have new food vendors this year." The boys eyes widen "Mhmmmmm" Aerith giggled "So like you"

On the separate island, near Oichi's castle, there was a large home that was mainly secluded by the wooden area. The only way you could get to it was through a private driveway that flowed through the woodland. This was Kaleb's and Tozrith's home. Kaleb and Tozrith got married as soon as Tozrith graduate from school. Their wedding was planned by Takara who was now the lead wedding planner in Xacron.

In the living room, Kaleb was passing back and forth. His white hair had gotten longer. As he paced, he didn't hear Tozrith walking up. He had gotten quite handsome over the years. He had short curly black hair and his red eyes deep red. He chuckled and grabbed Kaleb from behind making him jump. "Did I scare you?" He whispered in his ear making him shiver. Kaleb pouted and pulled away from him. "N-No. I was just lost in thought." "Really? It is about time for the festival. We need to get going." Kaleb sighs. "I have news first…" "What news? Don't you hate being late?" "Shush your face and listen." He picked up a piece of paper and handed it to him. Tozrith raised his eyebrow and looked at.

Kaleb started to get nervous as he read the paper. He watched his eyes grow wide. He then looked at Kaleb. "No…" Kaleb gulps and nods. "Your lying!" Kaleb shook his head. Tozrith broke out into a grin and pulled him into a hug. "I'm going to be a father!" He yells in excitement. Kaleb blushed but smiled. He pulled away. "I haven't told anyone else…I'm scared to be honest…" "Why?" "I don't know…I've seen men give birth before, but I didn't think I would you know…" Tozrith chuckled and kissed him deeply. "I'm so happy you became my wife. No matter what happens I'm right here." Kaleb smiles. "Thank you." His stomach starts to growl. It made Tozrith chuckle. "We should get some food in you two and we have to tell your mom! She's going to cuddle you to death!" Kaleb chuckled.

Zach was in their room putting a shirt on, Seth was in their bathroom "I'm starving, love I heard they have some new vendors this year" "Considering Rune is cooking up a lot of food this year, it is to be expected. The cooks around here get so competitive." Seth says with a sigh. Zach chuckles has Seth steps out, Seth steps over and sits down and put his shoes on. Zach puts his shoes and both of them left the room and walked through the house and left it to head to the festival.

At Ayden's and Ebony's home, Ayden was sitting on the couch readying some files. He was just finishing his degree in music. He was starting a teaching job at the school this year as the new music teacher. He heard rapid footsteps coming down the stairs. He looked up to see Scott, who was 11 now, rushing to him with a bright smile. Scott's hair was fully brown. It changed colors as he got older. Sadly, 6 years ago, Shamir and Scott had finally got captured by Keegan and his family. Ayden and his brothers went to go save them. It was what Keegan was counting on. When they found the two, Keegan had set the hideout to blow. Shamir was able to push Scott to Ayden before she was caught in the explosion and died. She sacrificed her life for Scott, but it was still a bitter taste for Ayden and the family. Ayden and Ebony took Scott in and adopted him, making a promise on Shamir's grave that they would take care of him.

Ayden closed the book as Scott jumped on him laughing. "Hey Scotty, looks like your excited for today." "Yeah! I'm pumped to see Saber and Charlie" he says blushing slightly. Ayden chuckled. "Do you like Saber?" Scott gasps with a red face. "What!? No! She is just a really good friend!" Ayden smirks getting up. "Sure, she is." He ruffled his hair making him laugh.

Ebony walking in wearing a Skull and Sunflowers Romper and black studded sandals and her hair was super long now to her hips. She smiled "Alright come here Scotty we need to put some sunscreen on you" Scott pouted "I don't need any though..." Ebony blinked at him "Really? you got sunburned two weeks ago hunny please come here" Scott frowns but steps over. Ebony smiles "Oh hush, this was made by me more powerful than normal sunscreen and you know why?" Scott smiles "Because you're the best Herbalist ever?" Ebony giggles putting some on him "Oh you suck up"

Ayden shakes his head. "Just make it quick. I don't want to be the last one there this year. Jayden eat all the freaking meat buns at Uncle's place." Ayden stood up. "Even now he is just a big glutton." Scott laughs. "When grandma eats her cheeks get super puffy! Like a squirrel!" Ayden laughs. "Don't let her here you say that." Scott grins at him.

At the festival Luna was sitting in the middle of the park waiting for Al and Molly. Luna was wearing a Japanese cute whimsy printed t-shirt tucked under a pink waist line skirt, white thigh high socks and Pink Converse Shoes With Bows. Her hair was short, still silverish and had dyed blush fade pink roots. "Luna!" she smiled turning to see Molly run up to her, who was now 13 going on 14.

Behind her Al was already holding stuff he had already brought her. 7 years ago, when he was allowed to, Al adopt Molly. Since he could not have children, he knew that Molly would make the perfect daughter for him. Molly was overjoyed about it. "Dad hurry!" Molly says pointing at a stall. "I want to hang that large teddy bear in my room!" Al sighs. "Molly you already have enough bears…" Molly pouted slightly. Al quickly caved. "Alright, you can have it." Molly giggled. "Yes!" She says pumping her fist in the air. Luna chuckles "You give into her a lot" Luna steps over and kisses his cheek "did you have fun?" He sighs. "I feel like a mule…but as long as Molly is happy, I don't really care." He looks up to seeing Molly trying to pick out a bear. She smiled brightly at the biggest one. "Dad! Luna! Hurry I want this one!" She says pointing. Luna chuckles stepping over "Ooo that's a nice one"

Semyaza now had long pink hair. He had grown to look very elegant. So elegant that he got looks from both men and woman alike. His eyes were no longer pink but red now due to a accident that happened in hell. Looking away from Azaya he saw some young girls taking pictures of him. They giggled and ran off. He sighs mentally. 'I get to much attention for no reason…'

In Rune's new tavern, the quads, who were 12, were sitting down eating. Nicole had short black hair. Her red eyes sparkled as she ate a burger. "I love uncle rune's food!" Eliana giggled at her. Her black hair was long and down to her back. She sips on her water as her purple eyes scan the crowd that was in the tavern. "It's to greasy for me. I love his steak though." Leia was looking down at her plate. She had order dumplings. Her black hair was in a high ponytail. Her pink eyes were scanning her plate like she was deciding which one she was going to eat first. "How can you not like burgers but like the steak! It's just as greasy!" Ava says loudly. She had short curly black hair. Since she had better control over her demon powers, she could change her hair color as she saw fit and she wanted to match her sisters. The only thing she could not change was her Golden eye color.

"Sooo….Ava…have you seen Hanson lately?" Nicole asked. "No, he said he would be here but he hasn't texted me yet." Ava says with a pout. She then gasps. "Hey! Don't try to get me all flustered up!" Nicole and Eliana giggled at her and then they turned to Leia. "Your right…we should be flustering Leia up." "When are you going to tell Hannibal that you like him?" Leia's face turned red. "O-Only as a friend…" "BLAHHH!" The girls yelled together and laughed. "You call blushing every time he around liking him only as a 'friend'?" Ava asked. Leia played with her fingers. "Mom said you don't need to worry about who I like…" The girls gasp. "You told mom on us!?" They said together. Leia whimpered. "B-Because you three keeps picking on me…" They pouted at her and then sighs. "Whatever." Ava says. "You won't be able to get a boyfriend when your older because your so shy. We were only tying to help you out." Nicole nods in agreement but Eliana shakes her head. "No, we were picking on her. We should cool it down…" Ava and Nicole grumbles. "Fine…sorry sis." Ava says.

Rune walked over and placed a large plate of seafood in the middle of the table. Their eyes sparkled. "There you girls go. Enjoy." He says smiling before walking off. The girls started to quickly tear into the platter. Near them some vampire girls at a differen't table where giggling "I can't believe Prince Rick has his own tattoo both set up for the festival! I so want a tattoo from him!" "Yeah me too and maybe a date since his not married to that witch anymore" one girl sipped her drink "Most likely got tired of her whoring ways, I heard she was sleeping around with one of her familiars while she was still with him!"

The girls looked at Ava who kept eating. "Sis…" Ava smiled. "What? You think I'm gonna let chatter get to me?" She chuckled. "I know my uncle rick and I know my auntie. Why get mad at some strangers who don't know anything about our family right?" The girls glanced at each other with a frown as Ava went back to eating.

Aerith, Jayden, and their boys were walking past the vendors, they already eat a lot of the food. Aerith had a pickle on a stick chuckling at them "Oh look at that!" she pointed to a Taiwan Food vendor. Their eyes widen and ran over. Aerith sighs 'forgetting me again' she followed them. Aerith smiles looking at the food 'mhmm these look yummy' "Just one of everything." Jayden says. The man chuckled. "Of course, Prince Jayden. We already had a large plate fixed just for you and your family." Jayden smiles. "Awesome." He says taking the plate.

Aerith giggles then her eyes widen grabbing Jayden's arm who looked at her then looked at what she was looking. Dumplings "Hunny… dumplings…" "Aerith the guy is right there. Just tell him what you want so he can stack your plate up." Jayden says chuckling.

Aerith licked her lips "Can I have the top of dumplings please?" the man blinked and chuckles "Of course Princess Aerith"

"Aerith! Jayden!" they turned to Ebony, Ayden and Scotty walk over. Ayden gasped "No your already at this one?!" Ebony shook his head "calm down Ayden" Scotty chuckles at him. Aerith chuckles take her dumplings, right away she started to eat them "Mhmmm the baby loves them!" The man held up a plate to Ayden. "I've been told the royal family was quite the gluttons, In a respectful way of course." "Yes!" Ayden grabs the plate. "Thanks, man! You are awesome!" The man chuckled. Scott then spotted two pink head twins. "Uncle, Auntie I'm leaving! Bye!" He says rushing off into the crowd. Ayden sighs. "So hasty…" Ebony giggled "the boy is in love" "Oh there's auntie" Aerith says pointing as they see Oichi and Mya. But before they could get her attention she disappeared into the crowd with Mya. "Oh well…" Jayden says. "We will see her whenever she pops up again." Ayden chuckled. "Mya must have found the toy booths. Knowing her she will try to win every prize again."

Oichi and Mya walking along as they see Jess and Michael holding hands has Jess was holding a My Neighbor Totoro Totoro with Leaf 4-Inch Otedama Plush. Mya smiled brightly "Auntie Jess!" Jess turned and smiled "Mya, you look pretty today" Michael smiles "very Mya"

"Thank you!" Mya says. She then tugged on Oichi's arm. "That one mom! Can I play that one!" "Of course, sweetie." Mya giggled and over to the booth. Oichi sighs following her. "So much energy for a five-year-old…"

Skylar, who was now 13 was sitting on the roof with a sigh. She was slowly eating a melting ice cream when she heard wings flapping. She looked up to see Jaliyah, who was also 13. She had short hair and was using her dragon wings to fly down. "Hey Sky!" She drops on a roof. "What are you doing up here?" Skylar pouted and pointed down. Jaliyah looked down and chuckled to see a group of boys walking by. In the crowd was Darrius, Florina's 14-year-old son. He had short green hair and eyes. He was smiling as he talked to his friends. Jaliyah giggled. "Why don't you just talk to him?" "And make a fool of myself? No way…remember that time at the park and I tried to return his basketball?" Jaliyah laughed. "Yea and somehow, you manage to trip over a rock and fell in a puddle! Pfff! Lame!" Skylar pouted. "Oh, hush up…" Jaliyah sat closer to her. "I'm just picking. Just be yourself and talk to him okay." Skylar groans. "One day…maybe…"

Scott rushed through the crowd and smiled as he saw Charlie and Saber sitting down on a bench eating a meat bun. "Charlie! Saber!" He says waving. Charlie waved. Saber smiled. "Hi Scott! Did you come by yourself?" "No, uncle and auntie are here. I see you already started eating?" The twin's nods and slide apart. Scott smiles and sits in between them. Saber hands him a meat bun and they start to eat together.

She sighs softly. "Dad…can I go now?" Ross chuckled. "You can do whatever you want princess. Just don't get into any trouble." She nods. "Thanks dad." She walked off on her own, disappearing into the crowd. Kaci chuckles "She use to be glued to you" "What are you talking about. She still is. But Leia is here so she went to go find her most likely."

Kaci hummed then she stopped and looking down, Ross frowned "Babe you alright?" Kaci looked up at him and had tears down her face "Ross… I felt them move…." Ross shook his head with a chuckle. "You've had two kids. You should be used to babies moving around in there." Kaci smiles "But these two are my first has female"

Over by Oichi, she was waiting for Mya to finish playing a game that caught her eye when she spotted Emma and Jasper who were now 11. "Hi mom." They said together walking up to her. "Hi you two. Are you having fun?" They nodded. "Is it okay if we go eat some more?" Jasper asks as his stomach growls. "Of course, sweetie. You don't have to ask me that. Just keep an eye on each other." The twins nodded and walked off. Oichi smiled. 'Oh Orochi…I hope you can see how cute our twins are getting.' She looked back a Mya who was shooting a water balloon at a target. 'I wonder if Deacon would come…' She blushed slightly and then shook her head. 'No, it was just for one night…don't get hooked on it…'

Jasper and Emma walked hand in hand as they looked for Aliyah's food stall. They soon found it and saw her working it with Angelica who was 10. "Come one! Come all! Get your hot and spicy food here! Specially made by my mama!" Angelica yelled with a bright smile. Demon customers grabbed some samples and then quickly got in line. Aliyah smiles. "Good job dear. Keep it up." "Yes, ma'am mama!

At Aliyah's stall the twins were still eating when they then heard a loud gasp. "HEY! Watch where you are going!" They looked up to see the girl that was in front of them. Her food was on the ground and so was a milkshake. "Stupid kid! Watch where you are going!" The woman yelled. Aliyah growled. "Hey! Back off!" She yelled. The woman frowned. "She should watch where she is going!" Jasper got up and went to the girl. "You, okay?" He asked. She looked at her dumpling. "Wanna share?" She looked at him. The woman frowned. "Don't ignore your elders! You hear me talking to you!" The girl looked down. Jasper looked at the woman. "Shut up you old hag." The woman eyes widen. "What?!" "I said shut up. Don't act like you run anything around here. All I need is one word, and I can have you thrown in jail for just looking at me wrong. Know your place." He grabbed the girl's hand and pulled her over to Emma who giggled.

In the middle of the town, Kendrick was walking around. He was 15 and his orange hair was a bit longer and went down to his neck. His eyes scanned the crowed. He sighs. "Where is she…" "Kenny." He stooped and turned around to see Byron who was age 13. He was quite handsome now. He had short blue and black hair and eyes. "Hey Byron. You here alone? I thought you would be looking for Eliana." He blushed rolling his eyes. "Shut up. You were looking for my sister, right?" Kendrick nods. She and Lydia are with grandma. She made her wine stand, and she needed some help with the customers." "Cool. Lead the way."

At the festival, Alaric now 15 a slim build and very pale skin. He has short, choppy black hair with side bangs that reach his chin and turn white at the tips and grey eyes. He sighed walking through the festival grounds. He was bored, his parents were here somewhere. Walking and walking then he stopped to see someone, he grinned and rushed over right away put the person in a headlock "Hey there Kendrick!"

But before he could get a response, he was flipped over forcing his arm to be released and placed in a headlock himself. "Yo, Alaric. Aren't you a little old to be still doing the headlock thing?" He says ruffling Alaric's hair before he let him go. Alaric laughed getting "Never!"

Byron walked past them with a sigh. He saw the wine stall and it had a long line. He saw Lily handing out her award-winning wine for this year. Beside her he saw his older sister Lydia her hair was now short and mixed with orange and red. She had recently turned 15. She smiled brightly as she took the money and put it in the small safe box. "Thank you for your purchase! Enjoy!" Out of the shop, Chloe came and seeing her made Kendrick smile. She was 15 going on 16. She had long black hair and a bang that was cut sideways, covering one of her eyes. She was carrying crates of wine using her small amounts of her fox fire. "This is the next batch grandma." Lily smiles. "Thank you dear. After this you can go have some fun with your sister."

The boys walked over. "Nana Lily! Hey!" Kendrick says waving. "Hi dear. Where are your parents?" "Out and about. Hey Lydia. Chloe?" He says flashing a smile. Chloe blushed and looked away shyly. "Hi Kenny…" Lily chuckled. "Once the girls are they can join you in the festival. I just need the crates brought out here." "I can help to make things move faster." Kedrick says. "Thank you dear. I would like that." Alaric chuckles at this then sees his older brother Zach walking towards them with Seth. Alaric smiled and waved "big brother Zach!" the kids looked to see them, Zach blinked and chuckles "Hey there Alaric, Ooo a wine booth"

Lily smiles softly. "If you want a bottle, you can order now and I can have it sent to you, otherwise you're going to have to wait in line." Zach grinned "Awesome!"

"Dad!" Seth suddenly hears and felt himself behind hugged from behind. He looked down to see his 10-year-old twins, Cassidy and Zero. He smiles softly. "Hey you two. Where is your mother?" "She and Vega are eating at Rune's. He has a seafood special going on." "So, you ran off without telling her?" They pouted. "No Gray came with us. He is over there!" They pointed to see Grayson walking up eating a fried pickle. He was 11 and looked like a copy of Seth. His red hair was short. He sees Seth and then looked at Zach with a frown. "Hey dad…" "Grayson. Enjoying yourself." "I was up until a second ago. Mom said the twins can roam around with you today." He pulled out a paper and handed it to Lily. "Here is the list of wine Nana Lily." "Okay honey. I'll have it sent to your house. Tell your mother I said hi." He nods. "Bye dad. I'll be back for the twins later…" He says walking off. Seth sighs sadly a bit.

Even after Grayson got older, things soured between them when he explained why he couldn't be with Terra. He didn't take the news well and he didn't want any contact with Seth unless he had to. "Daddy? You, okay?" Cassidy asked. He nods. "Yes, I'm fine. Why don't we go find some games for you to play?" The twins giggled hugging him more.

"Grandpa!" Zach turns to see Elvira run over to him who is now 11, Zach chuckles at her "Hey there sweetie, where's your mother?" Elvira blinked "Oh she gave me some money and told me to have fun!" Alaric right away snuggled her "Awww you are just the cutest!" Elvira's eyes widen and turn red "let me go!" Alaric shook his head "Nope your still snuggle able" Zach laughed and Seth chuckles. Elvira had enough which caused him to get flipped over making Kendrick laugh at him "Shesh getting yourself flipped by little Elvira" Elvira pouted "I'm not little!" she ran off, Zach sighs softly "Gray still hates me I see" "Afraid so… It's my fault…had I explained another way so that he wouldn't have seen it as you stole me from Terra…" Zach frowns at this.

The twins started to pull on Seth. "Daddy! Come on! We want Aliyah's dumplings!" Seth chuckled. "Your demon side is craving them I see." They pouted at him making him chuckle. "Okay, okay. We can get some dumplings." The twins cheered. Zach chuckles "Mhmm Aliyah's dumplings"

Kendrick dust his hands off. "Okay Nana. I'm all done." "Thank you dear. Have fun okay?" He nods and looks at Chole. "Ms. Sonya is selling her cake pops." Chole's eyes widen with a sparkle. It made him chuckle. "Let's go get some before they run out." She smiles and nods. "Bye grandma. I'll be back." "Have a good time dear." She says waving.

Audrie walking around sipping her lemonade, she was having the time of her life. She never imagine it would be so fun out here. She then was on the ground, someone had walked into her, it was the same woman from earlier. She looked down at Audrie 'she's not royal I think' "Hey watch where you going little brat" Audrie frowns, her drink is all over the ground. Biting her lip and stood up "you knocked my drink buy me a new one!" the woman looked at her and laughed "If you where watching where you where going then maybe it shouldn't be on the ground little girl. "do we have a problem here?" the woman looked up and her eyes widen she backed up "No….your majesty" Audrie's eyes widen and turn to see Jess standing there with Michael. Jess narrowed at the woman "you again, I heard from my nieces and nephew when I stopped at their booth. Have you no respect for children?" The woman frowned. "She ran into me! The least she can do is watch where she is going!" Jess narrowed at her then see's Oichi walking over with Mya, Mya giggling with happiness, Jess smirked has Oichi got close "So your saying it's this girls fault for walking and having a good time? You blaming her for walked into 'you'? Shouldn't you be the one that should be watching their going? You're an adult, you shouldn't be walking around here knocking children over even Queen Oichi's children, I wonder what she would if she heard you disrespected her children earlier?" the woman frown and her cheeks turned red in anger "Like I care what some Queen thinks!" gasps filled the area from people.

"Then maybe you should be escorted out of my kingdom." Oichi says with a sign. "They woman spins around. "Queen Oichi…I…um well…" "No need to speak. I've heard enough from the guards. You treated my children quite rudely after ran into another girl…" The woman bit her lip. "No! I mean she…It's not like that!" A guard walked by Oichi and grabbed the woman. "Get her out of my kingdom. Now." The guard drug the woman off. Jess nodded then looks at the girl who was frowning at her spilled drink, Jess smiled stepping over to her "You alright?" Aubrie looked up at her and frowns "Uhm… I'm fine… your… majesty…" Michael looks down at her and frowns "Jess… she has a magical item on her" Jess's blinked looking at her "And I see no beads… Oichi this girl has no beads…" Aubrie gasps and runs off making Jess's eyes widen "Hey wait!" Oichi sighs. "It's fine…every now and then someone slips in during the festivals. She's just a child, she can have fun like everyone else." Jess frowns "But she had a magical item on her"

Michael nodded "It was giving off like a shield, a powerful shield… a child shouldn't have?" Jess nodded. Oichi rubbed her head. "So, what would have been your plan? Scare the poor thing to death by questioning her? By the way she ran off she's already frightened…" Jess sighs "Come on Michael lets go find, I don't wanna frighten her"

"She had no evil intention. I am fine with just letting her go for now. However, if you wish to go after be my guest." Oichi sighs with a sigh. She watched as they quickly rushed off. Mya frowned as her tummy growls. "Mama, I'm hungry again…can we have some BBQ chicken?" Oichi smiles. "Of course my little glutton."

Aubrie running and running, she then ducked under a tent has Michael and Jess ran past the tent. Aubrie sighs and looks around it was a candy tent that sells homemade candy and chocolates. Smiling she steps over to the booths and see's so many types of candy and chocolates. A girl steps next to her "I'll have the rock candys, all the flavors!" the woman chuckles "Of course" Elvira giggles then see's Aubrie next to her "Oh hello" Aubrie smiles "Hello" Elvira smiles "I'm Elvira nice to meet you" Aubrie smiles back again "I'm Aubrie" "Here you go hun" the woman handed Elvira a bag full of different flavor colorful rock candys. Aubrie blinked at them. Elvira blinked and smiled, taking out a white "here" Aubrie's eyes widen and gently takes it "For me?" Elvira nodded "White ones taste good, like lemonade" Aubrie smiled taking a like and hummed. Elvira giggled "you knew?" Aubrie looked up at her and nodded "Yes…" Elvira chuckles "Well then I'll be the first one to be your friend!" Aubrie's eyes widen "Really?" Elvira giggled "Yeah come on follow me I know a cool place here!" Elvira took her hand and pulled her along with her. Aubrie smiled and giggled then she frowned sensing her brother not far, biting her lip 'please don't find me right away…'

Once the quads were done eating, they left Rune's place and started walking around to the stands. They were grabbing some fried Oreo's when Kalena appeared and smiled. "Leia…!" Leia smiles. "Hi Kana." She waved bye to her sisters. They waved back. Leia and Kalena walked off. "Um…is your…brother here?" Leia asked blushing slightly. "I don't know. Wanna try some king fish meat?" Leia eye's widen. "That's a rare meat Kana!" She nods. "Yup, let's get some." She grabbed her and they ran off to the stall.

Reaching there they saw Hanson and Ember eating. Hanson was 13. His grayish, white hair was still short. Ember was 11 and half of her hair was white, and the other side was black. "Hanson." Hanson turned to them. "Yo. What's up Leia. Kalena" "Hi uncle…auntie…" Kalena says. "Ava is looking for you." Leia says with a smile. Hanson smiles brightly. "Really? Shoot…I forgot to text her…come on Ember. Let's find your friends." Ember nods and waves bye to the girls. They waved and walked off. "Ember is so silent…I wonder why she doesn't talk." "I think nana Nysa said something about that she is super shy since she was raised mostly in hell." They walked up to the stall. "Two sea king plates please." Leia says. The woman smiles and starts cutting the meat and frying it. Leia licks her lip at the smell. "It already smells so yummy." The giggled waiting for their food to be done.

As they waited, they missed Andrew and Umiko walking by them. Andrew was 11 and had grown quite tall for his age. He had short curly brown hair and sparkling green eyes. When he was only 5 he had an accident that cause his eyes to be damaged. After a long surgery his eye sight was restore and instead of blue eyes he had green. Beside him was Umiko. She was 10. Her pink hair was in a curly and her blue eyes roamed all over with a smile. "Where is mom and dad?" She asked. "Having their alone time…" Umiko giggled. "Are they coming to the festival?" "I doubt it." "Then I wanna see grandma!" "When we see her, you can run to her." Umiko smiles and looks at a taco stand. "Ohh! Taco's!" Andrew smiles. "Cool." They walked over and stood in line.

The girls quickly came to a beautiful colorful stage, so many people were around. Audrie blinked "What's this?" Elvira chuckles "This is the dancing area where a lot of differen't people do dances, my cousin's dance should be staring… Oh hello Steven" Steven stopped in front of them and smiled "hey there Elvira and who is this?" Elvira smiled "This is my friend!" Aubrie nodded "I'm Audrie" Steven chuckles "do you mind if I sit with you?" they smiled and nodded. Steven sat next to the girls. Elvira chuckles "Excited for Bella to start dancing?" Steven chuckles "Very"

Everyone around started to be quiet has music started to place with such drums and different sounds has Bella wearing a stunning belly dancing costume with Butterfly jewels on it moving with the music and her long white hair moving with her. Steven's eyes widen at her. Elvira giggles "She looks so stunning" Audrie eyes widen watching this "wow…"

Oichi and Mya were now sitting on a bench eating some BBQ chicken. Mya giggled as she kicked her feet. "Mama? Can we get more?" She asked. "Sure honey." Just then a handsome man walked up in front of them. He looked nervous. Behind them, a few people were staring and whispering. 'Oh no…not another one…' Oichi says. The man drops to a knee and holds out a beautiful bouquet of flowers. Mya eyes sparkled. "Oooo!" "Q-Queen Oichi. My name is Lord Jacob Davenport. I have served under the Ruska family for many generations. I hope that you would take this gift as I request and audience with you." Oichi sighs mentally taking the floors. She smiles. "They are beautiful. What can I do for you today Lord Jacob?" Jacob gulps. "I would like to ask you to join me for dinner tomorrow evening." She heard gasps and from some people. But those who had been around in Xacron already knew what was going on. They chuckled at the attempt.

With her being single, she had been getting a lot of proposes from different men. Some were genuine while others had different motives. They would try to get her flustered by asking her out in large crowds and some would even try to make her look bad when she rejected them. All the same, they just wanted an easy way to get into power by using her. Even after all these years some of them still saw her as a pushover who needed a King.

Oichi chuckled. "I am sorry Lord Jacob. I will have to decline your polite offer." Jacob frowned and looked down. "I see…am I not worthy enough for you, my queen? What must I do to get into your good graces?" "Oh, it is nothing like that. I just have many things I must do. I am not looking for a partner right now. Please continue your loyal services to the Ruska family and thank you for the flowers."

Jacob sighs with a look of slight embarrassment from everyone seeing her reject him. "Yes, Queen Oichi…" He quickly walks off. A few people chuckled as they started walking again. Mya looked at Oichi. "Mama? Why do guys keep coming to you?" Oichi smiles. "Because they want to gain favor with me." "Is it because your single?" "Yes, I believe so…even after all these years so people think that I need to have King to rule by my side." Mya pouted. "But you're a good queen…" Oichi smiles patting her head. "Thank you honey, but sometimes no matter what you do, people will always find something to hate. Remember that you cannot please everyone." Mya hums out.

"Oichi" they turn to see Deacon standing there, Mya's eyes widen to see him holding a XL rainbow plushie. Deacon smiled "hey princess" Mya looks at Oichi who smiles and nods taking her plate. Mya giggles running to Deacon, tackling him into a hug. "Daddy!" Deacon chuckles "I see you missed me" "I did! I did!" Mya says with a bright smile. Oichi smiles softly. She adored how much Mya loved him.

Deacon looks at Oichi and smiles "So I finally found my clan" Oichi's eyes widen at him "They were deep in the wilderness of Alaska, they came back with me and being treated at the clinic by Julian know" then he blinked and grinned moved has Klaus came out of know where but deacon put him in a headlock "Nice right son" Klaus groaned "MAN!" Deacon let him go "Look at you all grown up, 27 now and that hair slightly longer and wavy a little" Klaus chuckles "You know it" Mya tackled him "big brother!" Klaus chuckles "Hey there Mya oh Oichi… I came to find you and I did… auntie with your blessing may I take Naomi's hands?" Deacon's eyes widen at him. Oichi chuckled. "Of course, honey. Make sure you make her happy. I look forward to having many grandchildren." She says laughing. Klaus smiled brightly "I will!" he ran off to find Naomi.

Deacon chuckles and looks at Mya "I don't think your mom would mind if take you off her hands and take you to the rides?" Mya looked at Oichi with a pleading look. Oichi chuckle. "Go on dear. Have fun with your dad." Mya squealed jumping side to side. "Come on daddy! Let's goooo!" Oichi laughed. "So excited. How adorable." Deacon chuckles "alright come on lets go on some rides together"

Once Deacon and Mya left, Oichi sighs looking down at her hands. She then frowned as she got up. She put the empty plates and left the festival for a bit.

Klaus running past people and finds Naomi with her sister eating funnel cake "Naomi!" he shouted running to her. Naomi blinks. "Klaus. Hey!"

Klaus pulled her up and kisses her making Naomi turn red "I just talked to your mom, and I got her blessing" Naomi looked confused "What do you mean?" Klaus went to his knees. Her eyes widen at this. Alisha grins.

"Naomi, I would not want anyone else but to spend the rest of my life with" reaching behind his takes out rose gold ring with leaf designs and a orange sunstone in the middle ring "Will you marry me?" Naomi tears as she panic's a little. "I…um…" Alisha giggled at her. "Snap out of its sis. Give him an answer!" Alisha says cheering her on. Naomi blushed and nods. "Y-Yes! Yes, I will!" Klaus grinned putting the ring on her ring finger, standing up he picked her up and twirling her "I love you so much!" Naomi smiles. "I love you to!"

Hours went by and by the main stage, Dawn sat with Danni still looking the same from 10 years ago, she was wearing a White And Red Ruffled Maxi Dress with Slit and nude heeled shoes. She sighs, Chaz hasn't showed up yet "Shesh where is your brother?" Danni stuffing her face, Frank chuckles at Danni. "Working probably. He is the head construction man you know." Danni says. Dawn pouts 'no far….'

She spotted Kaleb and Tozrith. "Kaleb!" Danni says waving. Kaleb smiled and walked over. "Hi grandma, gramps, auntie." He looked at Danni. "Have you seen mom?" "No. You know she don't usually stay this long during festivals." "Oh…" Kaleb sighs. "What's wrong dear? Do I need to kick someone's ass?" She glared at Tozrith who jumped. Kaleb smiled. "No…I just wanted to tell her something important…" He then smiles. "But I wanted to tell you right after." He handed her a piece of paper. Danni cleans her hands and grabs it. She reads it and smiles brightly. "Your pregnant!" She hopes up and snuggles him. "YAY! Another baby!" Kaleb chuckles as he turns his head to the side to avoid being snuggled to death by her breast. "Your mom is going to flip! Make sure you tell her as soon as you find her okay!" Kaleb nods as she let him go. Dawn chuckles "aww more babies, how Jess! Michael!"

Jess and Michael walked over and sat down, Jess sighs. Michael rubbed her back. Dawn and the others blink at her "What's wrong auntie?" Kaleb asked. Jess frowns "we found this girl who had a powerful magical item on her but ran off and know we can't find her…." Dawn's eyes widen "really know? What kind of magical item?" Michael looked over "it was some kind of barrier, most likely hiding her scent or whatever else"

Danni hums. "Well, we are just going to have to assume that she got away. If she was a child, then I'm sure she meant no harm." Jess nods "Yeah"

Tozrith took Kaleb's hand. "Come on let's go get a seat before the show starts." "I'm hungry." Kaleb says. Danni chuckled. "Make sure you eat a lot of yummy food. You're eating for two now." Kaleb smiles and nods as he walked off with Tozrith. Jess giggled "Yup" Michael nods leaning back into his chair.

On stage, a portal opened and Marik walked with a smile. Since it was slowly getting dark, the streetlights were on. They dimmed the lights. "Welcome everyone. I hope you enjoyed the fire festival this year." He says smiling. "Now without further ado…we will end this lasting traditional festival with a fire dance." He spots Dawn. "Anyone is welcome to join and dance so long as you do not get on the stage. Enjoy, have fun, and eat until you pop." He chuckled as he walked off the stage.

As he did active, and a catchy tribal beat started as men and women alike started to walk on the stage with colorful masks covering their face. A few of them had two large torches in their hands but they were not lit yet. The dances, danced in sync and a few people got up and started to dance to the music. Danni chuckled and got up. "Come on Dawn. Let's dance for a bit until Chaz shows up!" Before Dawn and a chance to say anything, Danni grabbed her hand and pulled her to the dance area. Dawn chuckled "Sure!"

Jess smiled "Awww" "Grandma!" Jess turned to see her grandsons running over to her "Elias and Caleb!" they hugged her "How are you two doing?" "good!" "Hey mom!" Jess looks up to see Aerith and Jayden walking over. Jess chuckles and reaches out touching Aerith's tummy "5 months and the baby is strong, so you gonna tell us the gender yet?" Aerith grins "Nope! It will be a surprise at the baby shower reveal party" Jess pouted. Michael chuckles "she's smart too, I can't tell no one can. Nice strong shield you have on you" Aerith giggled "well I have an amazing teacher" Jess giggled "Yeah you do!"

As the dancing went on, the dancers lit the torches and started to spin them giving off a performance. The few who didn't have torches slipped into the crowd and danced with them. All the while, Danni kept Dawn's back turned from the stage as the dances started to brush people to the side.

They then slowly started to surrounded Dawn and Danni. "Looks like we are getting a lot of attention." Danni says making Dawn giggle. People at first were frowning that they were kicked off the dancing area, that was until one of the performers pulled off their mask reviling Chaz. He smoothly danced through the performers until her was right behind Dawn. Danni was trying to hold back her excitement. Dawn chuckled at her. "Your so excited. You hiding something from me?"

The song was coming to the end as the dancers with the torches came together and using some demon magic, the flames turned bright red and blue, creating words in the air. People's eyes widen as the words spelled out something. The climax to the song came and when it ended all the dances jumped up and slammed their hands into the ground, bowing around Danni and Dawn.

Danni started giggling uncontrollably, making Dawn raise her eyebrow. "Danni?" Danni grabs her shoulders and spins her around. Dawn's eyes widen to read the flames that were now spelt out. 'Will you marry me!?' She looked down to see Chaz, on one knee, dressed as one of the performers. He smiled holding up a ring to her. Dawn's eyes widen down at the ring sterling silver with Wolves engraved on the sides of the ring and a moonstone in the middle. Dawn smiled brightly and tears went down her face "YES!" Jess and Michael stood up and started to clap their hands "Yay!" Aerith, Jayden and their boys clapped their hands and cheering. Danni smiled happily. "Yay! Now we are finally sisters!" She says tossing her hands up. Chaz chuckled and put the ring on Dawn's finger. He wraps his around her waist and pulled her into a deep kiss.

Semyaza looked at Azaya has she was munching on a big pickle "you sure eat a lot today" Azaya blinked and looked up at him "well it's a festival! Gotta eat what we can before the triplets eat everything" Semyaza chuckles at her. They both sat down to see the event that had happen "How cute Chaz proposing to Dawn"

Then Azaya felt sick to her stomach "Yeah.. I think I did eat too much…" Ross and Kaci appeared with Hannibal who was now 13 years old. Kaci sat down "Hey you two" Azaya smiled "hey mom and dad" Hannibal sat down "Yo sis" Azaya chuckles at him "Oh where's Kalena?" "When she isn't with me, she is with Leia." Ross says. Azaya chuckles, Kaci groans "Hunny can you get me something to eat?" Hannibal raised his eyebrow "Mom you mostly all day…" Kaci narrowed at him "Calling me fat?!" Hannibal gulps "No but…" "Stop while you are ahead son…" Ross says chuckling as he got up. Hannibal frowns "I'm sorry mom…" Kaci nodded and looks around and smiles brightly "Ooo over there Ross, Aliyah's stand!" Azaya gasped "Semyaza can you get something from there" "Sure, with Emma and Jasper hasn't eaten her out. They love her food." He says getting up. Azaya and Kaci watched them walk off, Kaci looks at her daughter "So how are you and Semyaza doing?" Azaya giggled "good mama" Kaci smiled at her.

In Oichi's secret garden, Oichi was sitting alone. Her panda cubs were now grown and had cute panda cub's. She was watching them sleep. Oichi would not let it slip but in truth, she was very depressed and heartbroken. Losing Orochi had took its toll on her and it was like her heart could not repair itself. Tears started to leak out of her eyes. She missed her husbands, and she would give anything to have them by her side.

She heard footsteps walking up. "…what do you want Sam…" Samuel sat down beside her. "I came to make sure you were okay." Oichi rubbed the tears out of her eyes. "I am fine…" "You are depressed Oichi…and it is tearing you apart. Maybe it's time for you to open your heart once more?" Oichi shot him a glare. "Why!? So you and fates can curse me once more and take who ever I love from me!? Watch as you use me as some tool again and watch me crumble!? No…I'd rather live alone then to have to deal with this pain again…now leave me…" Samuel frowns. "As you wish…" He got up and walked away. Oichi placed her hands in her face and cried. Samuel frowned looking at her. He looked down at his watch. 'It's almost time…just hold out a little longer Oichi…'

Elvira and Audrie had walked around together, they were having so fun together. Both sipping some cherry ices walked with the group but Audrie stopped and her eyes widen looking ahead. Elvira blinked at her "What's wrong Audrie?" Audrie turned to her and smiled "I had fun but I must go… don't wanna worry my parents" Elvira blinked at her "okay uhm do you have a phone?" Audrie blinked but shook her head "I'm sorry but I have to go" has she ran off, Elvira gasped "Wait Audrie!" then she see's an older boy run where Audrie ran off too. Elvira bites her lip and ran off to find her mother.

Audrie ran through an alley and tried to leave the city until she ran into something. She fell back and heard laughter. She sat up and saw an angelic barrier blocking her way. She looked up to see Walter walking up with a smirk. "You should be lucky that I let you stay for so long. Mother is upset that you slipped out. Now let's go home…now." Aubrie sniffs "I want to stay! I made a friend please tell her that you couldn't find me…! How did you anyways?! I have this necklace on!"

Walter smirked holding up a black crystal. "Dad gave it to me. Able to cancel out that annoying barrier just for me. It can pinpoint your location. Now quit wasting time and come home." "NO!" Audrie, she shouted and lifted her hands as a solar light hit him making him go blind for a moment. He groaned opening his eyes and she was gone. Walter sighs and then growls. "Just great…"

Elvira finding her mother and Michael "MOM!" Jess turned to her head "Elvira what's the matter?" Elvira frowns "My new friend Aubrie is being chased by someone!" Dawn's, Danni's eyes widen at this. Jess frowned "Okay tell me about this girl?" Elvira nodded "she my height, black hair in pigtails and yellow vampire eyes and fair skin!" Jess's eyes widen and look at Michael and nodded "That's the girl we have been looking for but it looks like someone else is after her" Jess looks at Danni "Will come with me with your werewolf senses?" Frank blinked and looked Danni who nodded "Sure" Jess smiled "Come on Auntie" Danni rubs her head. 'Well…didn't think I would be spending the rest of the night doing this.' She rushes off after Jess.

Aubrie was running and running, turning a corner has she bumped into someone which made her fall to the ground. "Ah there you are" Audrie's eyes widen looking up to see Jess and some other women "Please don't' be afraid…. Aubrie" Aubrie's eyes widen "How… did you know me name..?" Jess smiled "My daughter ran to me saying her friend ran off and someone was chasing her" Aubrie blinked "Elvira..?" Jess nodded helping her up, Aubrie gasped and hide behind Jess has someone walked up. Danni looked up and her eyes widen at this boy "Aubrie enough time to go home and don't you dare use that spell on me again" Jess frowns at him "are you her family?"

Walter narrowed his eyes at her. "Obviously or I wouldn't be running after her. Hand my sister back over…It's time for us to go home." He says looking at her. Aubrie frowns "Walter I'm not going home!" Jess's and Danni's eyes widen at that name, Walter sighs "Now Aubrie mother isn't happy that you stole her necklace and stealing money from dad lets go!" Jess looks at Danni "Danni… could it be him…?" "It is him…his scent is mine and Franks…along with that vampire…" Danni says squeezing her hands.

"Aubrie don't be stupid! Are you really going to disobey our parents and leave me and Risa behind! Now quit with the stupid games already and let's go!" Walter says with glowing eyes. Jess looks at Danni "well then we must act, alright then" Jess lifted her hand has a barrier appeared around him. Walter looked at the barrier and frowned. "What are you trying to pull you old hag…" Jess's eyes widen "Old hag…?!"

Danni walks up to him slightly. "Walter…" Walter looks at her. "I've search for you everywhere…" Walter growls at her. "Don't go around saying my name like you know me. Release me before I make you regret it." Danni bit her lip. "Walter…I'm your mother! Please believe me. You belong here with me and your father!" Walter ignored her and glared at Aubrie. "Are you happy now! Thanks to you our family is going to be broken apart! You just had to come out and explore! I hope mother makes you pay for your insolence!" Aubrie's eyes widen and starts to tear, Jess frowned "watch your mouth!"

Danni got close to the barrier until she was hit with a black orb. She screamed and flew back into an old vendor. Her stomach was burned. Jess looked up and Aubrie eyes widen as she shook. Floating above them was a young girl with gray hair. She was wearing a black hooded dress that covered her face. She looked down at Walter swipes her hand, throwing out a pulse of black magic. Remarkably familiar black magic. It shattered Jess's barrier making her eyes grow wide. Walter was then covered in a barrier and lifted up. He growled looking at Aubrie. "You will pay for this…" He growls out. The young girl opened a black portal and floated in with Walter following her. Danni tears as she sat up holding her stomach. "W-Walter…" She reaches up to him. Walter huffs and enters the portal. It closed behind them. Jess frowns "That magic it was Valeriea's…." Jess steps over to Danni knells down looking at her and frowns "Rex teleport Danni to Julian and contact Oichi and Frank" "Understood…" Rex chimes out.

once Danni was teleported away, Jess turned to the girl who did not move. Jess smiled "come here Aubrie" Aubrie gulped and walked over "how about you come with me to see Oichi huh?" Aubrie looked nervous and nodded.

A portal opened in Zarisa's room. Her room was covered in black with bookshelves filled with magic books. She had a large queen bed and a desk with notes on it. She stepped out and her room lights turned on. Walter walked in behind her. He bit his lip and hit her wall destroying the side of it. With a flick of her hand, she repaired it. "Don't destroy my room…" She says softly. "I should have just taken her by force! What is she thinking!" She pulled back her hood and her grey hair turned black. She turned to Walter with a cold and blank look. "Make sure you go and explain to auntie what happen."

"What!? I'm going by myself!" "You let her leave…knowing full well what may happen…" Zarisa sat on her bed and started to meditate. "I could only help you because I couldn't risk you getting taken." Walter bit his lip. "Ugh! How could she pick us over that hag! What is she thinking!" "I don't know…and I don't care…" Zarisa says softly as she closes her eyes. Walter sighs putting his hands in his pocket. He walked out the room closing her door. His anger turned to sadness. He heads to his mother to report what happen. 'Aubrie…you idiot…'

Phoenix was pacing back and forth in the kitchen has Xavier was making her something to eat. Walter gulped and stepped in "Mother" Phoenix stopped and turned to him "Where is Aubrie?" Walter gulped "S-She…" Xavier looked at him with a narrow look, Phoenix bites her lip in anger "What happen?" she hissed out.

Walter sighs. "She went to the festival and made friends with the witch hag daughter…when I tried to bring her home, she blasted me with some blinding magic and ran into the arms of that witch…she didn't want to come back mom…No matter what I said! I tried but bring her back by force, but she kept saying she wanted to stay…they tried to trap me in a barrier but Risa was able to save me but we had to leave without Aubrie…"

Phoenix's eyes widen with anger making Walter duck has a blast of magic hit the room. Xavier ducking in time and sighed "there goes the kitchen now" Phoenix stepped to Walter "Get your ass back up now and you go back and get her now!"

"Phoenix darling…you are trying to send him up against the queens of witches and the wolf queen…that is suicide…the best thing we can do right now is wait for an opportunity to snatch Aubrie back." Xavier says with a deep sigh. He glanced darkly at Walter who shook and put his head down. "As much as I want our daughter back, we can't rush in there while they are on guard. Then Walter will be lost to us as well…" Phoenix frowns looking away 'Aubrie…'

Xavier walked up and grabbed Walter by his cheeks and squeezed them. His looked darkly down at him and a sadistic smile came to his face. "As for you…I hold you responsible for letting her leave. You will pay for that in your training today. Do you understand?" "Y-Y-Yes father…." Xavier pushed him back. "Go to the training area while I speak to your mother." Walter tears slightly and runs off the training area.

Xavier turned to Phenix. "I can have Shawn send some men to Xacron to create a distraction…it will take some time, but we will get her back." Phoenix looks at him with tears "you will?" Xavier smiles. "Of course, darling. I have yet to fail, and I and I am just as angry that she is with that witch." He pulls her in and holds her. "I will bring our daughter home, no matter how many bodies I have to carve up to do it." Phoenix giggled "I love you so much" Xavier chuckles "Love you too"

Jess with Aubrie was in Oichi's office waiting for her. Frank had dashed off to the clinic super-fast after hearing about Danni. Aubrie looks nervous 'I wonder if she is mean like mama said she is…'

The door opened and Oichi walked in. Her cheeks were puffy from crying. In her arms was one of the panda bear cubs. She closed the door behind. She stopped and looked at Aubrie and smiled softly. "Would you like to hold Fanta?" Aubrie blinks and looks at the panda cub who yawned in Oichi's arms. Aubrie smiled 'so cute' "Yes please..." Aubrie smiled holding Fanta.

Oichi took a seat at her desk and grabbed a tissue dabbing her eyes. "Sorry for the appearance…now what is going on?" Jess frowned "Rex didn't tell you? Oichi you alright?" "No…but it's nothing I can't handle. I wanted to hear it from you so that I can process what is happening."

Jess sighs softly and started to tell Oichi everything. Aubrie sat there looking down "so now we have this girl here, her name in Aubrie… sweetie can you tell us who your parents are?" Aubrie did not look up and gulped "my daddy is Xavier… and my mama is Phoenix…." Jess's eyes widen at this. "Mhmm…Yeah, now that I am looking at you…you have his eyes…" Oichi says. "Can you tell us anything about the two children that came to get you?" Aubrie nodded "the boy was my big brother Walter and the girl was my mama's goddaughter Zarisa" Jess nodded "Her magic was identical to Valeriea's…." Aubrie blinked "That's… my auntie…" mama said she was killed by.. two heartless queens and a traitor of a daughter..."

Oichi chuckled. "She has the nerve to call me heartless. Haha…that is funny…and that so-called 'traitor of a daughter' had nothing to do with Valeriea's capture. I would gladly take credit for that." Aubrie's looked up at him "huh..?"

Oichi sighs. "Listen sweetheart…your older brother Walter…was taken by Xavier, your father. He is my little brother. Walter was stolen from my mother right after he was born and has been missing ever since, until now. I don't much about this Zarisa but her mother was a very powerful and evil witch who has done a lot of evil that is still affecting this world today." She then sighs. "Really now…Valeriea ended up having a daughter…who could possibly be the father…" Jess breathes softly "that necklace on you, you can take it off" Aubrie frowned "but I…" "It is alright, I have better one for you" Aubrie nodded taking it off and right away both Oichi and Jess can sense it, Phoenix's magic and Xavier's vampiric aura. Oichi sighs again. "Surely this won't sit well with Phoenix or Xavier…they will come for her…" Jess frowned "True they will" has Jess put a blue crystal necklace around her neck has her aura was quickly hidden again but much powerful.

She crossed her fingers and looked at Aubrie. "What made you leave their side and enter my kingdom illegally? Were you frightened of them? Did they harm you in any way?" Aubrie frowned "Mama and daddy never let us leave… I felt cooped up… I wanted out… I wanted to come here after seeing on TV on the news about the festival… so I sneaked, stole the necklace and money and ran away…. I'm so sorry…. now my big brother hates me and mama and daddy are gonna come here and hurt people…."

Oichi leans back in her chair. "You don't have to apologize dear. Them hurting people isn't anything new but it's been 10 years since they attacked me. Things have changed and I plan to be ready for them." She looked at Jess. "Are you taking her in? It would probably be for the best." Jess smiled "Of course, she can also attend the school maybe she can learn something new.. mhmm you look like the same age has Elvira… you 11?" Aubrie nodded to her. Jess chuckles "Then you will be starting middle school, grade 6" Aubrie blinked "school..? I never went to school… mama and papa always home-schooled me…"

"That would be a given." Oichi says getting up. "I think we can conclude this small meeting for now. You will be in safe hands with Jess. I will get you a set of temporary beads." "Beads?" She asked. Oichi held up her wrist. "This are a set of nano-bot beads. They connect to your nervous system so they can never be removed unless Rex says. They can be used as a tracker and a means to teleport but only to places you have been. For now, you will get a temporary set so that only comes with the tracker. You won't be able to use it to teleport."

Rex suddenly appeared beside the desk making her jump. "This is rex. He is a sentient nano bot being. Should you need anything all you have to do is ask." Rex bows. "Greetings. I am Rex. Call on me should you ever need anything." He disappears. "Now, if you will excuse me, I have to get Fanta back to her parents and go check on my mother." She walked around the desk and picked up the panda cub off Aubrie's lap. "Welcome to Xacron. The island kingdom of second chances. Jess is a wonderful person, and she will treat you kindly. If you have any information you wish to share with her, please inform her." Jess smiled "come on Aubrie" Aubrie nodded and followed them out of the room.

At the Clinic, Danni was admitted and in her own room. Danni asleep, Frank was next to her holding her hand. Adaline walks in with Zane "daddy" Frank looked up with puff tears "It's Walter…he showed up…" Their eyes widen. "Our little brother?" Adaline says. Frank nods. Zane frowns. "Mom couldn't get him, could she?" Frank shakes his head looking back at Danni. "I was told…. There was a girl he was tracking down… his little sister…" They frowned. "Little sister?" Adaline asks.

Michael steps in "Frank" Frank looks up and smiles "Uncle" Michael frowns "come with me I need to speak with you" Frank frowns but kisses Danni's hands and followed Michael out of the room. Adaline and Zane step over their mother holding her hands. Zane frowned. 'Hurry and wake up you old hag…'

It was getting dark has Aerith, Jayden, Ebony, Ayden, Azaya, Semyaza and the rest of the gang. Aerith's boys were sitting in front on the large blanket. Waiting for the fireworks, Naomi and Klaus where snuggling against each other. The triplets looked at him making him frown "Why you three looking at me like that?" Naomi frowns at them "Stop it"

"You talked all that crap about Alisha getting married and you ended up marrying him…" Ayden says sighing. "Great…It was bad enough to deal with Aerith now I gotta deal with him…" He says mumbling. Kaleb chuckled as Alisha hugged him. "Forget all of that. I'm gonna be auntie again. I'm gonna spoil him or her soooo much!" Kaleb smiled patting her head. Aerith sighs "Really Ayden?" Jayden frowned "shesh Ayden" Ebony sighs and snuggles into Ayden "Where is Scotty? I told him to come and sit with us and that he can bring anyone" He has his own friends. He is sitting with them. No need to have crowed over here." Ayden says with a sigh.

Azaya got up "I'll be right back bathroom" she runs with her vampire speed. Semyaza sighs "I hope she's okay, she's been eating way too much today…" Aerith's eyes widen "eating a lot? Like how much" "A lot really close to the idiots here." "Until she eats out a entire festival by herself then she'd never get close to eating like us." Jayden says chuckling as he high fives Ayden.

Aerith smiles "well think long and hard Sem" Sem looks at her "What do you mean?" Aerith chuckles "We have seen is with our parents, aunties and uncles and now me" she rubs her tummy "Azaya could be pregnant" the girls eyes widen and turned to Semyaza who's eyes where widen like an owl. Klaus laughed "She's not a teen anyone, she's an Adult, when did she got off the birth control?" Semyaza bites his lip "when she turned 21." He scratches his head. "Well…I guess it was bound to happen soon or later…" He gets up with his hands in his pockets and strolls off to find Azaya has a loud cherry bomb firework went off making the people cheer ahs the fireworks started.

Azaya steps out of the ladies' room rubbing her tummy 'why I'm I throwing up…?' then she felt someone pat her hair making her look and smiled brightly at Marik "Uncle!" she hugs him. "Hello Azaya. I hope your enjoying the festival." Azaya giggled "Yes I'm enjoying my time here" Marik chuckles at her, he looks at her and she has become beautiful over the years, looking down at her stomach he blinked then his eyes widen. Azaya blinked at him "uncle what is it?" Marik looked up at her and grinned and held her cheeks "oh my lovely niece, you are just glowing!" Azaya's eyes widen at him "Glowing….?"

He chuckles until he spots Samuel who disappeared. He looks down at Azaya. "Silly niece. Think hard okay. You have seen your parents and aunts go through this already. You are eating a lot aren't you… and I'm sure you have been to the bathroom a few times. Add those together." He poked her belly. "I have something to take care off, don't get too excited when you figure it out." He says chuckling as he walked away to find Samuel. Azaya's eyes widen and looks down at her tummy 'I'm pregnant..?' "There you are" Azaya looks up at Semyaza and she tears with a happy smile "Sem… I think I'm pregnant…" "Yes, I figured it out too. Your scent was being covered by the all the different food here. Now that we are away…" He smiles. "You scent has changed…so yeah…we are going to parents." Azaya giggled has he whipped her tears "You wanna enjoy the fireworks or?" Azaya giggled as she whipped her tears "You wanna enjoy the fireworks or?" Azaya giggled "let's go and buy a pregnancy test. Semyaza smiled and taking her hand and walked off together as the sound of the fireworks echoed the sky.

At a bar, Samuel was sitting down alone when Marik sat beside him. "So…how is she?" Marik asked. "A wreak…" Samuel sighs. "I knew it would get bad. If something isn't done it will turn worse and Xacron will lose its queen…" Marik hums out. "I see…so what do you want?" "I want Orochi's body and soul." Marik raised his eyebrow. "Come again?" Sam chuckled. "Don't act like you didn't hear me." "You plan on using his body and 'that soul' with it. Don't you have to trade another soul with his?" Samuel nods. "Yes, but under special circumstances I can use the soul as I see fit. It is time to pay back Oichi for everything she has been through." Marik smiles. "Was this your game plan all along?" Samuel chuckled. "Of course. All to keep the line of fate moving." He gets up. "I will go and collect Orochi. Thank you for your cooperation." He says disappearing. Marik chuckled.

"Daddy?" He turns to see Vivi peaking around the bar. "Is he gone?" Marik smiles. "Yes, he is." Vivi walked around with a bag of dumplings and sat beside him. "I meet a boy…" Marik eyes narrowed. "What?" "He is really nice…he gave me dumplings…" "Mhmm…what's his name so I can burn him alive?" Vivi gasps softly. "No…I like him…" "No boy is good enough for my princess. What's his name?" Vivi pouts sadly. "…Jasper…he has a twin name Emma, and they are really nice…" Marik blinks. "Oh…the twins…then that's fine." She looks up at him. "Really? So, he can be my friend?" "Of course. I don't mind if it's him, but anyone else gets burned alive, okay?" Vivi nods. "Okay daddy."

Now at her manor, Oichi was standing on her balcony watching the fireworks. She was wearing a dark blue lacy room, getting ready for bed. She had a early start in the morning. She checked up on Danni and Julian told her she should be up tomorrow. She wanted to talk to her about Walter.

The twins, Jasper and Emma, and the quads were staying at the same tree house that the triples, Alisha, and Naomi stayed in when they were younger. They used it as a little hideout club. Mya was in her room fast asleep with puffy cheeks. Deacon had tired her out and brought her a lot of food and toys from the festival. She offered to let him pick a room, but he said he wanted to go check on his clan. She took a seat on her outside couch and saw the fireworks lit up the sky. On a small table was a bottle of moonlight whiskey Deacon had given her. She had a glass with two cubs of ice in it. She poured herself half a glass and slowly sips on it as the firework show went on.

Seth was walking alone. He had just dropped off the twins at Terra's. She and Vega were now married. It came to a shock to him, but it looked like they were happy together. Terra was currently 6 months pregnant with his son. He did not want Zach to come since Grayson was still up. He did not want to deal with the disappointed and angry look in his eyes. As he walked, he saw Lily standing there with a glass of wine in her hand. "Lady Lily?" Lily turned him and smiled. "Hello Seth. Aren't the fireworks lovely?" "Yes, they are, what are you doing out here by yourself?" "The children are with their friends and so I started to think about Anthony." "Your late husband? I heard you never remarried after his passing…" Lily laughs. "True…in a way I suppose I would know better then anyone how you were feeling when you lost your wife."

Seth frowned and looked down. "…May I…trouble you for some advice…" Lily nods. "Of course. What can I do for you?" "When you lost Lord Anthony…how did you make it through?" Lily hums. "My children. I did not have a lot of time to grieve because I had to look out for them. Dante, Axel, and their sisters…I couldn't look weak in front of them, so I never cried in front of them. Only in private. The pain didn't ease up either. I just handled it the best I could. I refused to remarry because I was scared to let anyone get close to my heart only for me to lose them…I didn't want to go through that pain again…that is why I feel so bad for Oichi who is suffering alone right now…"

She smiles. "Seth honey…I know what happened with Terra was hard for you, but she did it for you and in the end, she found happiness. You lost your first wife, suffered for many years, and now you are with the mate you truly desired. You are allowed to have happiness." She placed a hand on her his shoulder. "I made the choose to never remarry…I decided to stay alone…but you Seth, you don't have to make that decision. Be happy with Zach. Love him. Cherish him. He is the key to your heart, and you shouldn't let anyone take that from you. Okay?" Seth looks down. "Even my own son?" "Even him…you already gave away your heart once, don't do it again okay?" Seth smiles and takes her hand. "Anthony was lucky enough to have a wife like you." He kissed the back of her hand. "Have a nice night madam Lily." Lily waves and watch him walk off to find Zach.

Zach was sitting on a small stone wall, watching the fireworks. He breathes softly and looks down at his hand, there was silver men's band with Garnet 'is it too soon?' he closed his hand and puts it in his pocket 'where is Seth?' he frowns feeling lonely.

He then felt a kiss on the cheek. He turned to see Seth. "If you keep frowning like your face will get stuck. Or so I have heard." Zach chuckles at him and kisses him back "so where did you go?" "To drop the kids off. I had a nice chat with Madam Lily as well." Seth says with a sigh.

Zach puts an arm over him and snuggles with him "Seth?" Seth hummed "I know we have courting rings but…." Zach reached in his pocket taking out the ring "I love you and want to spend the rest of our immortal lives together... will you marry me?" Seth hums and took the ring from him, slipping it onto his finger. He then held it up to the sky right as a firework spattered the sky. He smiles softly. "It's a perfect fit." He says bring his hand down. "So, I guess you are going to be stuck with me forever then. I hope you are prepared." Zach's eyes widen and grinned pulling Seth in a passionate kiss, Seth chuckles and kisses him back. Zack pulls away and grins "I wanna make love to you all night" "Then I suppose we no longer need to wait until this firework show is over. Let's head home." Zach grinned and picked Seth up and with his vampire speed they disappeared.

Azaya was in the bathroom doing a pregnancy test, Semyaza was sitting on the couch in the living room. His foot was very jittery waiting for Azaya to come out of the room. When that door opened, he stood up has Azaya walked over to him. She was tearing and smiled holding up the test strip and it said pregnant 3+ "I'm pregnant…!" Semyaza smiled getting. He hugged and kissed her. "We should make a doctors appointment as soon as we can." Azaya giggled "Yeah" Semyaza took out his phone and called the clinic.

At Jess's house, Aubrie had her own room and Jess designed with her magic has a Monochrome theme. Aubrie smiled sitting on her bed wearing pajama's she had woken up not to long ago. There was a knock on the door, Aubrie blinked "Come in?" the door opened and Jess walked in with a box "your school uniform has arrived" Aubrie smiled has Jess stepped over putting the box down. Aubrie skipped over and knells down has Jess opens it.

At Oichi's she was at the manor in her personal office when she felt a rush of warm energy enter the room. She looked up to see Deerward. He looked troubled. He still had his black hair instead of white. It had shocked Oichi at first, to see this form of him when she woke up from her sleep all those years ago. "Deerward? Is something the matter?" She asked. "Yes…I would like to discuss something with you…" Oichi put her pen down and got up. She walked to him. "What is it?" "I have…learned some news that did not make me happy…in fact, I grew angry for waiting so long…" Oichi looked at him with confusion. "What news?" "News I cannot tell you until it's time…" He sighs. "Oichi…I was waiting for you re open your heart before I told you this." "Told me what? Lord Deerward what is going on?"

Deerward cups her cheeks. "I love you…" Oichi's eyes widen. "W-What!?" "I love you my beautiful wolf queen…I have for such a long time now…but I didn't want to push my feelings on to you when you were grieving…I wouldn't have been so hasty but…then…you with Deacon five years ago…it only made me more determined to make you mine." Oichi's face was flustered. "D-Deerward please slow down. What do you mean you love me!? I-Is that even allowed?" "Yes, my brother does not mind it and even if he did, I would have done this anyways. I would give up everything just to be at your side." He holds her face and brings his lips to hers. Her eyes widen as she felt a strong taste of spring water.

Her body shook as feeling such warmth rushing over her body. Deerward pulled back, licking his lips. Oichi felt her heart skip a beat. "D-Deerward…" She was suddenly picked up and put on her desk. He kissed her again with more passion. Oichi pushed on his chest a bit but soon melted into his kiss. His hands ran down her back and to her thighs. He pulled away again. "Oichi…I want you to be mine…I truly love you and I will make your heart heal once more. I swear that to you." Oichi starts to tear suddenly. "O-Oh… why am I…" He smiles and whips her tears away. "It's your soul. It is doing its best to repair itself and your body cannot contain the emotions. You yearn for someone's touch, and I want that touch to be mine." He smiles so beautifully that Oichi could feel her heartbeat getting faster. "Oichi…" He kissed her again. Oichi finally kissed him back wrapping her arms around him. She pushed her body up against him moaning softly. This time she broke the kiss putting her forehead on his. "Okay…you…you won't leave me, will you?" "Never…as I promise when you became my vessel. I shall be by your side always. Allow me to try to heal your heart into loving me?" Oichi nods. "Okay. I trust in you." He smiles picking her. She blushed as he carried her to her room.

At Zach's and Seth's, Seth was in his pajamas sitting in the living room with a cup a coffee and watching the news. Zach was in the kitchen getting himself a cup of coffee. Seth sips it has the news lady starts bringing up an event that happen 2 years ago. "It has been just two years since the vampire kingdom of Grivida was overtaken by red dark matter crystals." A drone shot of a the once stunning royal capital of Grivida was overtaken by Asturias's red matter crystals. "Luckily in time, King Zachariah with the help of the witch queens, King Oberon and the two-wolf queen. Grivadan vampires were evacuated to Ravenswood and Xacron" Seth frowned at the news, then felt someone sit next to him and smiled and leaned to his left. Zach chuckles holding him "Morning love" "Morning…seems like things are progressing worse by the moment…we were luckily to move everyone." Seth says sighing. Zach nodded "yeah and luckily no one got infected or killed" "Yeah…" Seth says looking at the news. "It's good that both Ravenswood and Xacron are much bigger these days. I would never have imagined this place growing as much as it did." Zach nodded cuddling him, kissing his temple "you able to move alright? I hope I didn't go overboard on hardcore love making" Zach chuckles. "Oh please…I am far from fragile despite how I look." Seth says shaking his head.

Azaya sat in the waiting area of women's immigration office with Semyaza. Azaya was wearing a Women's Vintage Skew Neck Gothic Tee w/Cami Top, Studded Vintage Shorts and black flip flops.

Azaya looked at Semyaza as he was ready a baby magazine, she smiled at him 'already reading about having a baby'

The waiting area wasn't that loud and it wasn't that busy. The door open and a nurse walked out "Azaya Morningstar?" Azaya smiled and stood up, Semyaza smiled and closed the magazine taking it with him. The nurse smiled and guided Azaya and Semyaza to the back. Where their first stop was the scale "alright step on the scale." Azaya nodded slipping out of her black flip flops and in the scale. Both the nurse and Semyaza looked, 140 pounds. The nurse looked at chart "you have gained 5 pounds, it's normal for being pregnant." Azaya smiled. Semyaza smiled as well. He was excited.

"Alright this way." The nurse said, Azaya got off and Semyaza right away held her hand. They follow the nurse to a room that was mark room five. The nurse open the door and stepped in, Azaya and Semyaza walked in behind her, the room was just any other hospital examine room. "Alright hop in the bed" the nurse said, Azaya smiled letting go of Semyaza's hand and Semyaza sat down on one of the chairs. Azaya hopped on the examiner bed. The nurse stepped over and started to write in her laptop, she wakes over and started to give Azaya the normal nurse checkup, blood pressure, breathing. Asked her questions so on and so forth.

"Alright the doctor will be in here in a moment, a quick question we have to ask all teen mothers this, have you thought of the alternative way." Azaya nodded has the nurse left, Semyaza took her hand making her smile. The door opened and Aurora walked in "Hey, Good evening." Aurora says.

Azaya giggled "Hey cuss" Aurora chuckles "so you think your pregnant?" Azaya nodded "well then lets find out, Rex please run an ultrasound on Azaya" Rex appeared and did a scan. On the wall on the screen shows a love feed of her ultrasound. Azaya's eyes widen and did Semyaza's. Aurora smiles "You are about one month pregnant" Azaya smiled brightly "Semyaza our baby…" He smiles with a nod. "Yeah. I see."

Down in the underwater labs, Mikey was monitoring the sensors. Ziana stepped in "Hun, I'm gonna go and take Morgan and Lizzy shopping" "Alright. Don't go overboard spending to much."

Just then a senor went off, Mikey looking over the world map, blinking 100 miles with in the middle of the ocean it was some kind of magic that suddenly appear. This magic some kind of powerful dragon aura that was spiking high. Mikey frowned. "Rex, I need a scanning in that area." "Understood." Rex chimes out. Rex scanned "There's a large floating island…. I'm reading such dragon aura from there" "Great…just what we need…more dragons. Is my sister available?" "At this time she requests to be alone." "Send her message anyways and contact Terrance for me." "Understood…" Rex says.

At River and Terry's, River was doing the dishes has Xena and Hannibal where spar together against their father. Xena shouted "Take this!" she did a spinning kick at her father. Terrance standing their chuckles watching them. He heard the sound of flapping and he saw Rue landed softly beside him. "Brother…" "Hey Rue. How's the hunting going?" "I'm just getting back…the Vermont's are very fun to roast alive." Terrance chuckled. "Mother and father?" "Still hunting. Mother is being very aggressive these days…she may be ready to mate…" "Oh? A new sibling? She's been wanting more children." Rue sighs. "Hopefully she doesn't destroy to much. Father grows worried."

Rex appeared beside Terrance. "Lord Terrance. Your presence is needed in the underwater lab." "Is it now. How important." "Top level." Terrance sighs looking back at Terry and the kids. They were winding down. "Alright. I'll be on my way. It's fine if I bring Rue?" Rex nods and disappeared. "I'm just getting back and you want me to join you on this?" "Yup. Been a while since we did anything together." Rue sighs. "Very well…" Suddenly Rue was kicked in the stomach sending him flying to the woods, Xena laughed. Terrance sighs. "Xena…I've told you many times to stop doing that while I am having a conversation…at least wait until after we are done talking." Xena pouted at him but nodded "Sorry grandpa"

"It is fine Terrance." They turned to see Rue already walking back unscathed. He brushed himself off. "If it puts her at ease to get a lucky kick in every now and then it doesn't bother me." He says removing a leaf out of his head. Xena narrowed at him and went after Terry again but she was flipped "Xena don't let anger control your movement"

Jess walked through the underwater lab hallways, reaching the lab they stepped in to see the world map up and location of a sudden dragon aura. Jess frowned "what is it?" "It's a floating island" Mikey says. Jess blinked "a floating island….?" "That's what I said…" Mikey says with a sigh. "Mikey. Terrance and Rue are here." Star says through the com. "Let them through."

Moments later Terrance and Rue walked into the room. "Why were we summoned." Rue asked. "Where is Oichi?" Terrance asked. "Busy, but she knows what's going on for now." The brothers looked at the map. "A floating island was discovered after Rex scans detected some dragon aura." The brothers looked at each other. Then back at him. "So you want us to investigate…sounds boring…" Rue says. Terrance nudged him. "Boring or not. It's worth checking out." Terrance says. Jess shook her head "what Rex is sensing is very powerful dragon aura, just be careful while going there that's why Errier is going with you" their eyes widen has Errier stepped in and chuckles "Hello again Rue" Rue sighs deeply. "Great…" Errier chuckles, Jess sighs "Shesh Dragons.. alright go on and see what this floating island is" Mikey nodded "We need to know what it is" Rue rolls his eyes at them before walking off. Terrance followed behind him. Errier chuckles and followed them.

Once outside, the three of them flew off in their dragon forms. With such speed from their dragon forms they reached the area with in 20 minutes. They can see it, a floating island and on the island was an old ancient city that looked preserved by dragon magic. Errier gasps "No this can't be… Rue… Terrance… this is the lost Dragon royal city…"

"We can see that…" Rue says unimpressed. Terrance chuckled. "Scouting missions were never your thing brother. Let's go check it out." Errier flew towards the castle, they followed her. Reaching the palace landing with the ancient golden dragon seal on the landing. They turned into their human forms. Errier looks round "I was just a girl… when I girl came here… when my father was the king of red dragons…."

They walked through the ancient halls, they can feel the powerful dragon aura in the air making their bodies shiver from this aura. Following the aura coming from where it was the strongest, reaching it they walked in to see the Winged Throne Room. Errier's eyes widen "wow.. still amazing like when I was a child…" Rue sighs, Terrance shook his head but stepped forward and his eyes widen and rushed over to the throne. Errier and Rue looked over has they see in a golden barrier bubble was someone. Errier's eyes widen and rushed over "It can't be…" Errier reached out touching it has the bubble burst causing them to pushed back. Rue groaned "man…!" Errier and Terrance looked up to see a gorgeous woman with long flowing golden hair float down. Terrance got up and reached out has she floated down in his arms. Errier stepped over and her eyes widen "The Queen of Dragon's, Aethelinda" "Well I guess we can say this was the source of the dragon aura…" Rue says with a sigh. "Should we take her back? It would seem unwise to leave her here as she is." Terrance says. Errier nodded "We should, she is the queen of all dragons… we have too" Rue rolls his eyes. "Whatever…let's just get back. We still don't know what cause this place to even appear or why she suddenly popped up. The sooner we get her back home the sooner we can have those questions answered." He says leaving. Terrance hums out and follows after him carrying Aethelinda.

Flying off with her they heard a humming and looked back has the floating island was following them. Errier's eyes widen "It seems the island is following her…." Terrance chuckled. "Mikey is going to love this." Errier sighs "It's alright, I'm sure the island would not land on Xacron" "Not the most concerning issue…" Rue says shaking his head. Errier frowned Errier frowned "why are you like this? Your lucky she is asleep or she would taken your dragon power away, Rue stop being an ass" "I am not like anything and its nothing against her. Its against you.. If you weren't here then maybe this would have been a moment I could actually enjoy. Seeing your face annoys me." Rue says with a frown.

Not long they where back in the underwater lab, the floating island was floating near the island. Aethelinda was laying there asleep, Jess's eyes widen down at her "Wow.. I heard stories of her… Manon is she alright?" Manon's hand moved over her "Yes she's asleep, I need to speak with Ryūjin in the divine realm he might be able to wake her up… she's under a powerful dragon stasis sleep" Jess and Mikey blinked at him "Ryūjin?" Manon chuckles "the dragon god" Jess smiles "oh him" Manon chuckles "He's the Japanese dragon god but he can still help, most of the dragon deities don't exist anymore…. Sadly"

In Town Ebony and Scott were walking the park, it was arts and crafts day has people were seeing arts and crafts. Ayden would be showing up later has he was with his brothers. Ebony and Scott were standing has they watch Bella and Steven with masks on were doing spray paint art on canvas. Ebony chuckles and looks at the paintings that where already done and up for to buy. Ebony knelled looked through them and smiled seeing a sunflower one that was so colorful. Scott knelled beside her and smiled "did you find something auntie?" Ebony nodded "Yup, this one" she held up the painting. "You and uncle like a lot of sunflowers." Scott says tilting his head. Ebony chuckles "It's mainly me" she stood up with him "Bella!" Bella looked over and smiled. She walked over removing her mask "Hey there Ebony and Scotty" Ebony chuckles "this one" Bella blinked and smiled "5 dollars" Ebony smiled and paid for it "Thanks see you later!" Bella chuckles and waves bye to them has they walked off.

Near the ocean front, Alisha and Marcellus pulled into the driveway of Takara's and Yaris home. Their car was one of the newer models that could both elevate and drive on land. They had an appointment with Takara about their wedding in December. Getting out Marcellus yawns. He had grown into the perfect image of his father, with shorter hair. Something he hated. Demons use to flock to him about it, asking if he would follow in his father's footsteps by taking over Hell. He burned them alive of course and soon it became taboo for any demon to even mention his looks.

Alisha got with a smile. She wearing a cute light pink t-shirt with black leggings. Her large breast bounced as she skips to Marcellus. His blushes looking at her. "Trying to tease me already?" She giggled wrapping her arms around him. "Maybe. We are trying for a baby right? I should practice rising you up." She pushed her body close to his and chuckled feeling something hard pressing against her. "Like now…"

"Auntie!" Alisha looked over to see Umiko running out the house in a bathing suit. Marcellus snitched his teeth making her giggle. Walking around him she was tackled into a hug by her niece. "Hi Umiko! Where is Andrew?" "Studying…" She pouted. "He doesn't wanna play with me." "Aw, maybe after he is done Studying, he will play. School is coming up soon you know." Umiko nods. "Mama is in her office! Can I lead you there?" "Of course! I'd love to have a cute escort like you. Led the way."

At Ross and Kaci's, Kaci was walking around wearing a black maternity cardigan. Grey maternity tank and pair with maternity skinny jeans and boots. She was doing laundry, humming softly has Kalena steps in "Mom?" Kaci turned to her and smiled "Yes sweetie?" "Can I have friend over?" Kaci blinked "oh you want Leia to come over?" Kalena nodded. Kaci chuckles "Of course sweetie, she can come over and have a sleep over" Ross walked passed by but looked inside "What's going on" Kaci smiles "Leia is coming over for a sleeping over with Kalena" then hearing a crash and Kaci growled out "Hannibal! You better not be messing with your father VR set again!" "NO I'M NOT!" Kalena nodded "He is…"

Ross sighs and then smiles. "Do you want me to make you some cake pops?" Kalena nods. "Yes and buy some dumplings. Auntie Aliyah's dumplings." "You got it princess. Make sure your room is clean." Kalena smiles softly and heads back to her room. Kaci chuckles stepping over "You make the best cake pops ever" Ross grinned at her leaning down kissing her, Kaci humming kissing him back has Ross rubbed her tummy "mhmm there moving" Ross whispers. Kaci giggled "I need to get back doing the laundry and go make those yummy cake pops which I hope there would be some for me too" "I'll make a separate batch for you but right now I need to order a delivery on those dumplings." He says chuckling.

Marcellus and Alisha were sitting in Takara's office. It was large with modern day furniture different from her bright and colorful house. Alisha was smiling going through pictures of designs and venues. "Of course, the most popular one for us is at the palace. Though Kaleb asked me to set up a beautiful forest theme one behind the castle." Alisha smiles. "You did so wonderful on that sis! I was thinking since we were getting married in December a few days after Christmas we could do like a winter wonderland theme?" Takara smiled. "Of course! I can start the planning right away." She gets up and goes to her bookshelf and pulled out a binder. "I did a few during December so you can look at these and tell me what you thibk." Alisha grabbed it and started to flip through it giggling.

The door to Takara's office opened and a cute three-year-old boy pops his head in shyly. Takara smiled. "Yami." Alisha turned her head and smiled. "Aww my nephew is up." She closed the book and went to him. She opened the door wide and picked him up. Yami had been a surprise pregnancy for Takara 3 years ago. It was a rough process, almost losing her life. Yami had blue hair and eyes just like Yairs.

He giggled as Alisha snuggled him in her boobs. "Your so cute and you smell like the ocean just like Umiko! I could snuggle you all day." She gasps. "Would you like to be my wedding?" Yami's eyes widen. "Yes!" He says. Alisha giggled. "Hurrah!" She spins him around making him laugh.

Takara chuckled. "Is mom doing your wedding dress?" "Yeah. I told her I could make my own but she insisted." "And what about bridesmaids and groomsmen?" Alisha walked back over and sat beside Marcellus with Yami on his lap. "Oh well mama is gonna be the maid of honor. Then Naomi and the quads. For groomsmen…" She looked at Marcellus who sighs. "Semyaza as the best man, then Kaleb, Hanson, Ayden, Uncle Pax, and Belinor…" Takara writes it down. "Okay so did you want to do it at the palace?" Alisha nods. "Yes the new ballroom." "Great. So let's talk about the catering, the set up, and of course the price. Of course it all is a discount with the fees from mama." Alisha giggled. "Awesome!"

At Rick's tattoo parlor, Rick had finished tattooing someone. Cleaning it and wrapping it up he sent up to the office where he aired someone new, a vampire male noble. Rick says softly cleaning up, Greg looks up at him and frowns "Rick you alright therebud?" Rick looked at him and nodded "Yeah" he chuckles. Nivan, the noble vampire walked down the steps, he was tall and very handsome with one side shaved hair and red dyed long on the other side and fair skin. Wearing black skinny jeans, band shirt and black converse he steps over "Rick you have an appointment in half an hour for a back tattoo. Rick looked up at him and nodded with a pink tint on his cheeks. Nivan bows and walked off, Greg looked at Rick who was still watching Nivan walking up the stairs with a flush face. Greg grinned at him.

At the museum, Joseph was watching them lifted a large statue that Chaz had donated. It was of a beautiful marble woman. It went right by another one of his works that was a traditional female warrior. They both were quite beautiful and popular in the museum. "Please be careful with that." He called out. "Mom!" Joseph turns to see his daughter Trinity who was 10. She had shirt black hair and yellow eyes. She was wearing a cute shirt with kitten paws and shirts with flats. She normally travels with him to work, but only to hopefully go play over at Nate's. "Daddy?" She called out. "Yes Trinity?" "Can I go over and play at Uncle Nates and auntie Michi's?" "Did you finish your chores at him?" "I did!" "Did finish your extra credit work for the starting school semester?" "I did!" She looked excited. Joseph chuckled. "Then go play. Make sure your home before dark." "HeeHee! Thank you!" She hugged him and ran off.

Out on the long bridge road to Xacron a white dodge mustang was driving through, in the driver seat was Chida. His hair was slightly cut shorter and eye shad turned slightly olive green. In the seat next to him was a boy of 8, with short white hair and garnet eyes. He was munching on a fresh baked donut. Chida smiled glancing at him then looking back at the road, he gripped the wheel slightly. He was nervous to see everyone again, he had found out who the man he fell in love with really was and was on the run. He felt stupid and used, he knew Luther would be coming for him. SO the only thing he could think of was to take protection under Jess and Oichi. Chida breathes softly, "Daddy where we going?" Chida smiled and looked over at his son "Well Riku we are gonna go see your auntie Jess and Auntie Oichi" Riku gasped "really?! are they pretty like you say?!" Riku smiled looking back at the road "Very"
