"Which explains a lot. Macbeth and Demona must have stolen those talismans from you while they were under the Weird Sisters' power.", I said softly, musing out in thought. "The Sisters must have given the talismans to the Archmage.", Goliath said with a growl.
"I only know that he seemed to be in two places at once.", Tom said with a frustrated sigh. Tom, Katharine, and the Magus then told us about what happened. "After that disastrous battle, I left to find help. And thankfully, Avalon dropped me in your laps.", Tom said, giving a grateful smile at Goliath.
"But we're running out of time.", Katharine said with a worried look. "If we do not defeat the Archmage's forces before sunrise, the next battle will be over before it begins.", the Magus said with a sigh.
"We have less than three hours left.", Gabriel said with a growl. "But Goliath's here now. He can protect us, and so can Sally with her magic.", Angela said with a grin.
"Magic?", the Magus asked in surprise and confusion. "Sally used magic to help us escape when the Archmage attacked us.", Angela said with a smile and a nod.
"If it is true, can you heal our eggs?", Katharine asked anxiously, looking at me. "I can.", I said with a grin. My hands then glowed a blue aura as I chanted a spell, and the blue light hit each of the Gargoyles. They all stood up, and they were healed.
"Thank you, Sally!", Katharine said with a grateful smile. "Your magic is amazing.", Gabriel said, awed of me.
"Perhaps she can help us fight the Archmage.", Magus said, looking thoughtful. "I'm afraid that she can't.", Elisa said with a shake of her head.
"Why not?", Magus asked in surprise. "She is pregnant with my child, and she has to stay here for her safety." Goliath said patiently and protectively.
"Goliath's right. As much as I want to help, I can't risk the life of our baby.", I said with a helpless shrug. "We can deal with Macbeth and Demona. We've done that before. But we cannot fight the Archmage without magic.", Goliath said with a frustrated sigh.
"Then what are we going to do?", Magus asked in dismay. I could help Goliath and the other Gargoyles. Draven said, sounding determined.
But what if the Archmage or the Weird sisters see you? I asked in worry. Don't worry, I'll make sure they won't, and I'll let Goliath and Elisa know. Draven said, sounding confident.
Ok, thanks, Draven. I said in relief. "Don't worry, we will find a way to stop the Archmage." Goliath said with a determined nod.
"Perhaps we can recover the Eye of Odin and the Phoenix Gate. Their loss would diminish the Archmage's power. We cannot hope to take our enemies by frontal assault. Our best chance lies in stealth." Goliath said, detailing out his plan.
"Then you'll need a guide.", Angela said with a grin. "Make that four. We know every inch of this island.", Gabriel said with a nod as he accompanied Goliath and Angela, along with Colin and Chris.
"This must be a surgical strike. Angela, Gabriel, Colin, Chris, you're with me.", Goliath said, giving a stern nod. "The rest of you, protect the castle and Elisa, Bronx, and Lacey, please protect Sally.", Goliath said, looking ever more stern and protective now.
"We will.", Elisa said with a grin. "You can count on us, uncle.", Lacey said with a nod.
"Goliath, be careful.", I said warily as I hugged him gently. "I will, my love.", Goliath rumbled softly before kissing me gently. And then Goliath and the others left.
"Don't worry, we will protect you and your child.", Tom said, looking like the warrior he was trained to be. I saw my mom accompany the Magus outside, and I smiled softly, but sadly, the Magus was too old to be with her. Suddenly, I felt sleepy.
"Sally, what's wrong?", Elisa asked in concern, and I then felt myself start to fall. I fell to the the floor before I blacked out, and I heard Princess Katharine. "Get her onto a bed!", Katharine shouted.
I then found myself in what looks like Avalon, and I saw a younger Katharine and Tom with the Gargoyles, but they were babies! This must be a memory from them from when they started raising the Gargoyles once they hatched.
I saw Katharine holding the green female Gargoyle beast who is called Boudicca in her hands, and I saw Angela on Tom's shoulders. I also saw Colin with a baby Lacey in his arms. "Aren't they adorable?", Magus said with a content smile as I saw that he had Chris in his arms.
"They sure are.", Colin said with a warm chuckle. "They are so cute.", Katharine said, cooing lightly to Boudicca.
"And they like to play a lot.", Tom said with a laugh as Angela played with his hair. I then saw a young Gabriel leap from the tree, and he landed in front of them.
"Good job, Gabriel!", Colin said, beaming proudly with a smile. I smiled as I saw them play even more, but then I felt a pain in my stomach.
"Sally! Sally! Wake up!", I heard what sounded like Goliath, and he sounded frantic. I slowly started to wake up, and then I felt the pain in the stomach again, and I moaned lightly.
"What's wrong with her?", I then saw a bearded man who I presume is King Arthur. "She's about to give birth!", Katharine shouted quickly. I then felt my water broke, and I saw blood.
"What!?", Goliath shouted in shock. "Get me everything I need!", Katharine shouted with a stern and calm look.
The female Gargoyle with green skin who was called Ophelia brought Princess Katharine what she needed, but I was in so much pain right now. "Sally, it's okay.", Goliath said reassuringly as he held my hand.
"It freaking hurts!", I shouted in pain as I panted. "I know, I know, but you got to hold on, my love.", Goliath spoke softly as his other hand caressed through my hair.
"You can do it, Sally. Just hold on!", Elisa anxiously replied as she patted my shoulder softly as I kept moaning in pain. "We have to go stop the Archmage once and for all!", Goliath said with a snarl.
"I will alert the others to form a perimeter around the castle.", Tom said with a firm nod before heading off. "I'll stay here to guard Sally.", Elisa said with a stoic nod.
"We will too.", Lacey said with a smile as Ophelia stood beside her. Don't worry, I'll protect them. said Draven with a reassuring growl.
"Let's go stop him and the Weird sisters!", King Arthur said with a fist in the air. "Don't worry, Love. I'll come back for you and our child.", Goliath said with a nod and a soft growl.
"Careful, Goliath.", I said weakly, and he then kissed me as he and the others left. I then cried out in pain. "Sally!", Elisa shouted in worry as she then held my hand.
"You have to push now!", Katharine shouted quickly. "On the count of three, 3...2...1..Push!", Elisa shouted, and I then pushed hard as I could.
"Keep going!", Katharine called out, and I was crying so much from the pain. "Keep going, honey!", Mom said encouragingly, holding my other hand as she was now next to me on my left side while Elisa was on my right side.
I was observing each of the groups, and I saw that they were losing. Goliath was on the ground due to an attack from the Archmage, and King Arthur was being held at gun point by Macbeth while the Magus was losing to the Weird sisters.
"I have to help them!", I said hastily, but then I saw a vision. I saw a younger Katharine, Tom, and Magus helping Goliath and his clan, and I saw the Magus with Leah, holding her hand in his with a loving look. I then gasped as I knew what it meant. It wasn't time for the Magus to die yet, and neither were Katharine and Tom.
"Goodbye, Magus." Luna said with a smile. "Stop!", I roared in anger.
"Who said that?", Seline asked in confusion, looking around. I then stood in front of my friend with my teeth bared, my wings flaring out. "It can't be...", Magus said with shock in his voice.
"It's Draven!", Phoebe shouted in horror. "The most powerful magic Gargoyle in the world.", Luna said in shock.
"You all caused enough pain once and for all!", I roared in fury. I then used a spell to tie the sisters together, and I disabled their magic powers. "What did you do?!", Seline shouted in horror.
"I disabled your magic. You will get back it, but only when I say so.", I smirked mischievously. "What!?", they shouted in shock.
"Draven can read a person's soul, and he can sense them in a way which is why he took your magic away." Magus said with a smile as he stepped next to me. "Exactly.", I said with a grin.
"Draven.", Magus said in awe. I then turned around, and I hugged him out of joy and happiness. "Oh, my old friend, I'm so happy to see you!", I said, purring happily.
"But how are you here? I and the Princess saw when that spear hit you in the chest, and you died afterwards." Magus said in shock, looking amazed.
"I'm actually a spirit, but after I died, I possessed the Princess's necklace when it fell in the ocean, and the humans found it after a thousand years had passed.", I said with a smirk.
"But how are you here?", the Magus asked in wonder. "Sally's family found me, and I have been part of their family ever since, and I have been teaching Sally magic.", I said with a warm smile.
"That explains a lot. And what happened to the necklace?", Magus asked in curiosity. "The necklace was destroyed, so I live within Sally's body.", I said with a smile.
Magus coughed harshly, and I knew i had to make him younger again. I then placed my hands on his head. "Draven, what are you doing?", Magus asked in surprise. "It's still not time for you to go, my friend.", I said with a growl. I then chanted a spell, and soon the Magus was back to his young self.
"But how?", Magus asked in amazement as he checked himself over. "My visions are never wrong.", I said with a grin, and I then sensed that Sally is in trouble.
"What's wrong?", Magus asked in concern. "I sense that Sally is in danger! I have to go now!", I shouted in worry and horror.
"Go save your daughter!", Magus said quickly, and I then took off flying to the castle.
I was still crying in pain. "Keep going, you're almost there!", Mom encouraged quickly. We then heard the door bust open, and we saw Demona! Demona then started to approach us when Lacey tried to fight her, but Demona blasted her, and Lacey fell to the floor.
"Lacey!", Ophelia shouted in horror as she tried to fight Demona, but Demona scratched her wing, and threw her to the side. "No! Are you mad? These are your children!", Katharine shouted as she stood in front of Ophelia. Demona snarled, and I kept crying, but I tried to control myself.
"You have to keep pushing, Sally! You're almost there!", Mom said with her hand tight with mine. "Demona! Are you afraid to face one of your own?", Gabriel said with a snarl.
"How cozy. Now you can all die together.", Demona said with a cackle, and she then saw me.
"Well, I'll be! You're giving birth to a egg, Goliath's egg no less as I can sense that you're mated to him. Pathetic! Well, no more as you have ruined my life, and I think I will take your half-breed egg to be mine as to ruin your life, Sally.", Demona laughed manically.
She was approaching me, but stopped when I then saw Elisa shot her gun at Demona to stop her. "Wouldn't you rather have me?", Elisa said with a growl as she tried to fire her gun again, but it got jammed.
"Always!", Demona said with a wicked smirk as she started fighting Elisa. "Elisa!", I shouted in horror, but I cried out in pain.
"Sally, the egg is almost out! You have to keep pushing!", Katharine shouted quickly. I turned around to see Elisa still on the ground, and then Tom and Gabriel pushed Demona off Elisa.
