As both I and Goliath suspected, everyone was in hysterics, and there were lots of reports on people missing, probably the ones smashed by Demona. I just felt so sad, so upset that Demona has killed a lot of innocent people!
I and Goliath along with Elisa have been sent to search for the people, but we know the truth about their disappearance. After that, we went back to the clock tower, and I noticed that it would be 3 hours before sunset. I told Elisa, Morgan, and Amy to stay in the clock tower for their safety.
"I'm scared, Brooklyn." Morgan said softly as she hugged Brooklyn. "It's okay, Morgan. I'll protect you, and so will Bronx." Brooklyn said with a purr, and Bronx then nuzzled Morgan's side with a growl.
"But what are we going to do to break the spell?", Amy asked in bewilderment as she looked at us. "I already called Xanatos, and he said that they tried to see if there was a way to counter Demona's spell against her, but they said it didn't work.", Elisa said with a frustrated groan/growl.
I sighed heavily as I realized we have to do something ourselves. We can't let Demona get away with this! And then Draven appeared. "Draven! Please tell us if there is a way to break the spell.", Elisa asked with a hopeful expression.
"Yes, Draven, please tell us.", Brooklyn said with a nod. "We can't let Demona kill any more people.", Goliath said with a growl.
"There is a way to break the spell.", Draven said as he bit his lip, looking nervous. "How?", I asked anxiously.
"One of you is going to have to sing a song, but everyone in New York has to hear it to break free from their stone sleep.", Draven said, looking sheepish. I was now confused. Sing a song and the spell will be broken?
"What do you mean that we have to sing a song?", Hudson asked, looking confounded. "It has to be very special that it echoes in every person's soul, something they could comprehend.", Draven mused thoughtfully.
"Like how I said every life is precious.", Goliath said with a smile. "Sing a song that represents the meaning of every life?", Morgan said in confusion.
"But what song represents the meaning of life?", Elisa asked, looking stupefied. "I have no idea.", Blaze said, shrugging as he shook his head.
"Me neither.", Brooklyn said with a frown. "What about 'Stairway to Heaven?', Broadway suggested lightly.
"No, that won't work! It's heaven for goodness sake!", Lexington moaned with a glare at Broadway who gave a weak shrug. "Little Boy Soldier?", Hudson mused in thought.
"That's a sad song. It has to be a happy song that uplifts every person in soul, mind, and body.". Goliath spoke, reassuring Hudson that it was a good try, but no. Then an idea came to my head.
"Circle of Life.", I laughed in delight, grinning. "What?", Elisa asked, blinking at me.
"The song of Circle of Life, it represents the meaning of life.", I said with a wide grin. "That's the perfect song, Sally. That will work perfectly well.", Draven approved happily.
"So, someone has to sing Circle of Life, and everyone will be free from Demona's spell.", Elisa said with a smile. "But who will sing the song?", Broadway asked with a gesture as he looked at us in confusion.
"Goliath.", Draven said with a patient smile. "Why me, Draven?", Goliath asked in surprise, blinking his eyes at Draven in curiosity..
"You have a knack for songs, Goliath. I don't doubt that this song which you have sung before, it would work city-wide.", Draven nodded with a smirk. "You have to do this, Goliath.", I said warmly, grabbing his hand with a soft smile as I looked at him lovingly.
"I will do it for all of New York." Goliath said with a smile, and I then hugged him happily. "Thanks, Goliath.", I sighed joyously.
"Of course, my love. It's your home as much as it's mine as well.", Goliath rumbled softly with a purr. "But now how are we going to make everyone hear the song? I mean, we can broadcast it, but most of the people will be outside.", Blaze said, looking concerned.
"You're right on that, Blaze.", Elisa said, nodding in agreement. "I think I might have an idea.", I said with a grin as something came to me.
"What are you thinking about, Sally?", Goliath asked me softly with a look of patient curiosity. I then told them the plan, and I later spoke with Xanatos, telling him to gather speakers, so I can place them around New York. Therefore, anyone who is outside, they will listen to the song.
"Are you sure this is going to work, Mr. Xanatos?", Owen asked quietly with a look of intrigued calmness. "I trust Sally for she is the only one who can use magic as mixing magic is dangerous.", Xanatos said with a solemn smile.
"Well, we have to get started now as there is only 2 hours left until sunset.", I said with a nod. "I'll help you along with my robots.", Xanatos said with a grin as he was wearing his armor, and there were 6 robots gargoyles besides him and Owen.
"Well, let's go.", I said with a determined growl as I was glowing a blue aura. We all went in different directions as I placed a speaker in the park, and then I went to place some on Liberty Island. We had to make sure that everyone in New York listens to the song so that the spell will be broken.
Owen had made sure that Goliath singing Circle of Life will be broadcasted on TV as well. After checking double sure that we had placed speakers everywhere in New York, I then went back to the clock tower, and I saw that there was only 8 minutes left until sunset.
I then made it to the clock tower, and Goliath then hugged me warmly. "Everything's set. You ready to do this, Goliath?", I asked with a grin. "More than ready, Sally. This will be illuminating, indeed.", Goliath smiled softly.
"Morgan, you and Amy along with Elisa have to stay here where you will be safe.", I said sternly as I looked at the girls. "I don't plan on leaving this place.", Morgan said with a snort.
"Me neither.", Amy said offhandedly, and I then noticed that Elisa wasn't here. "Where's Elisa?", I asked in confusion and concern.
"She said that she had to do something important, and she then left.", Brooklyn shrugged helplessly. Oh shit, I had a very bad feeling that right now, she was heading to Xanatos' building to confront him.
"We have to go there, but I can't let Xanatos know that you guys turn to humans during the day.", I said with a moan. "We're going to have to wait until the sun sets.", Goliath said with a frustrated sigh.
Shortly, the sun had set as Morgan and Amy turned to stone while Coldstone then woke up, and he glanced at Amy's statue. "What did I miss?" Coldstone asked softly, asking for answers. We then told him about our plan, and Goliath then told him to stay with the clan to watch after Morgan and Amy.
I, Goliath, Blaze along with Bronx were heading towards the castle, and we then made it to the castle as we went inside to see Elisa holding onto Owen's shoulders as they were turned to stone.
"Glad you made it.", Xanatos said with a soft sigh. "Elisa, you sure are stubborn, but I'm glad that you're safe.", Blaze said as he laid a gentle finger upon Elisa's cheek.
"Is everything ready, Xanatos?", Goliath asked softly with a stern look. "Almost. Once I place this on the antenna on that tower, all the speakers along with the broadcast will be synced together.", Xanatos said, smiling triumphantly, holding a device.
"Ok then, let's go place this device on the tower. Sally, you and Bronx stay here. Blaze, come with me.", Goliath told us sternly. "We will, and good luck.", I said warmly before giving Goliath a kiss, and he nodded at me after the kiss.
"Lovebirds.", Xanatos chuckled softly with a sly smile. Goliath didn't say nothing as he flew off with Xanatos following. "Protect Elisa.", Blaze said with a nod before he followed them as well.
I sighed deeply as I took a stand besides Elisa and Owen. "We have to stop Demona no matter what.", I said with a low growl, and Bronx barked in agreement. Bronx then started barking at a wall, and I then hid myself as I saw Demona come out from a secret passage.
"There are secrets about this castle that even you don't know, Xanatos.", Demona smirked wickedly. "But first, I'll take care of some unfinished business. I thought I'd rid myself of you long ago, human. Fortunately, that mistake is easily rectified.", Demona growled lowly as she was lifting her mace up to hit Elisa.
I gasped in horror, and I then saw Bronx tackle Demona to the ground. "Get off me!", Demona snarled in fury as I saw Bronx struggling to keep Demona on the ground.
Demona then threw Bronx off, and she tried to head for Elisa again. Having no choice, I glowed a blue aura, and I grabbed Demona. "What the Hell?!", Demona shouted in shock as I then flew her as high as I can, but she then was able to escape my grip.
"You again! How I wished that you turned to stone, so I can easily smash you into pieces.", Demona snarled angrily. "Well, it didn't work on me! Too bad, Demona as we are going to stop this madness once and for all!", I shouted in anger.
"Not if I stop you first!", Demona roared furiously as she flew at me, but I dodged, and we kept fighting each other. "Give up, Demona! You're finished!", I snarled lowly.
"I don't think so.", Demona said with a cackle as she then uses some sort of specter, and she threw something at me. "What did you do to me?", I asked in shock as I felt myself, feeling strange.
"Let's say that you have lost your magic!", Demona laughed maliciously. I then stopped glowing, and then I was falling. I tried to use my magic, but it was no use. Draven, help me! I shouted in horror, afraid for my life.
I can't! Demona must have done something to prevent me from leaving your body. Draven shouted in horror. I then screamed as I crashed through the roof, and then I fell on the floor with some rubble among me.
I was in so much pain as I felt my bones were broken. I was bleeding a lot, and I was starting to black out. The last thing I saw was Bronx whimpering in worry as he stood beside me, and then I heard a roar.
I and Xanatos, along with Blaze were heading back to the castle when I heard what sounded like screaming, and I knew that it was Sally.
"What's that?", Xanatos asked as he pointed at something, and I then saw what looked like...SALLY! And she was falling! "Come on, let's go!" Blaze yelled out in shock as we were flying as fast as we could, and I then saw what looks like Demona. She has crossed the line too far!
We then opened the door, and I saw Bronx. I saw the floor to the Castle falling apart, and I saw Elisa and Owen's statues starting to fall. Blaze then ran and grabbed them before they could fall.
