We then made it, and I felt happiness as I saw all the cows and horses, along with a few donkeys and goats, and I also saw the small pond that had the ducks in it.
"This is where you lived, Sally?", Goliath asked in amazement and awe. "Yep.", I said with a grin.
"It looks beautiful!", Elisa said with a impressed look. Then Bronx started barking, and we turned around to see Bronx putting his paws upon the truck's side.
"Is that the truck, Bronx?", I asked hopefully, and Bronx nodded his head. "Let's go.", Goliath said with a smile before he walked forward to the back of the truck.
"But we should let my uncle and aunt know what's going on.", I stopped him quickly. We then walked to the front door, and I knocked on it gingerly.
"Who is it?", I heard my aunt call out. "It's me, Sally!", I said with a grin. Then the door opened.
"Sally!", my aunt squealed in happiness and then she hugged me. "Glad to see you're here, why didn't you tell us that you were visiting?", my aunt asked in confusion with a raised eyebrow.
"It's kinda complicated.", I said, giving her a sheepish grin. "Goliath and Elisa, so nice to see you two!", my aunt said with a warm smile.
"Nice to see you, Karen.", Elisa said with a grin. "Indeed, it's good to see you as well.", Goliath smiled warmly. Aunt Karen has black hair, and she has light blue eyes. She has white skin, also.
"Come inside.", my aunt said as she welcomed us in. "Aunt Karen, have you or my uncle by any chance seen a egg this big with spots on it on your truck?", I asked with hope in my voice.
"You mean this egg?", My aunt said lightly as she led me to the living room, and there on the sofa, I saw Dagian's egg, safe and sound.
"Oh, thank god!", I sighed in relief as I ran over to hug my baby as Goliath joined me. "Thank the heavens that you're alright, son.", Goliath said, placing his hand upon Dagian's egg.
"Son?", Aunt Karen asked in confusion. "Sally, Goliath, and Elisa! What's going on here?", My Uncle Hank asked in confusion as he came in from upstairs. Uncle Hank has brown hair, and he has brown eyes. Also, he has the same tan skin as Morgan.
The 3 of us explained to my aunt and uncle about how I was now a Gargoyle for the rest of my life, and how Goliath and I had a egg together.
"That egg is our nephew?", Aunt asked with shock in her voice. "Yes, it is.", I said with a warm smile as I held Dagian's egg upon my lap, relieved to feel the hum of heat and comfort. He wasn't even disturbed by the chaos earlier.
"I'm happy for the two of you.", My uncle said with a grin. "But then how did you all end up here?", my aunt asked curiously. We then told them that Demona was trying to steal the egg, and that she might try again this night.
After telling my aunt and uncle about what was going on, they prepared themselves for this night, and I bought the statues of Angela, Colin, Chris, and Lacey inside the barn until they would wake up.
I had my egg strapped in my front backpack, and I would make sure that Dagian would stay safe. It would soon be dusk, and we knew Demona would be coming.
"Is everyone ready?", I asked with a focused growl. "Your aunt and uncle are inside the house.", Elisa said with a nod, and then the sun had set. Goliath turned back into his Gargoyle form as I did, and then the young Gargoyles woke up from their stone sleep.
"What did we miss?", Colin asked in confusion as he yawned. "You found Dagian!", Angela said excitedly in relief and joy.
"Yes, but we have to be careful as we know Demona could be nearby.", I said with a low snarl. We then heard some noises, and we saw Demona outside holding my aunt by her throat.
"Where is it?!" Demona demanded angrily. "I won't tell you!", Aunt Karen growled back at her, already feeling protective of my son even if she only knew him for a few hours already.
"Then so be it!", Demona snarled in fury. I then handed the egg to Goliath, and I then tackled Demona. "You again!", Demona snarled in anger and shock.
"Leave my family alone!", I snarled lowly as I clawed at her. She then threw me off, and she started fighting me, but I was able to dodge her attacks.
"How are you so skilled!?", Demona asked in frustration and surprise. "I learned from Blaze!", I said with a proud growl.
Demona then grabbed her blaster, and tried to shoot at me. I was able to dodge, but I saw that the barn which is the place where the horses, goats, and cows were kept, it caught on fire.
"Oh no!", Aunt Karen shouted in horror. "We have to get the animals out!", Uncle Hank yelled in worry.
"We'll help you! Angela, watch Dagian! I and Elisa will help them! Colin, Chris, and Lacey, try to put out the fire!", Goliath roared, giving out his commands. "Yes, Goliath!", they all cried out with nods.
Colin, Chris and Lacey each grabbed a bucket, and went towards the pond to grab water. They started pouring it over the fire, and it was working slowly. "Want to help them? Too bad!", Demona taunted with a wicked cackle.
I then had enough. I used a spell to freeze Demona in place, and I then put her to sleep as I then summoned Draven. "Come, let's go help them.", I said quickly with a growl. We both chanted a spell, and we summoned water. We made it go towards the barn, and soon we were able to put out the fire.
Goliath along with Elisa, Aunt Karen and Uncle Hank, they were able to get all the animals out, and I then used a spell to fix the barn to make it look as if it never caught on fire. "Oh, Sally, Draven, thank you!", Aunt Karen sobbed in joy, hugging me.
"Don't mention it.", I said with a grin. "All in a good work's day.", Draven chuckled lightly.
"Where is Demona?", Elisa asked in worry. I then pointed to where she was. "You froze her?", Angela asked in amazement.
"Then I used a spell to put her to sleep.", I said with a smirk. "Nice job, my love.", Goliath purred warmly.
"Way to go, Sally!", Lacey said with a whoop of delight. "You're amazing!", Chris said with a grin.
"So are you, Draven!", Colin said with a laugh. "It's not just me, it was all of us, dear boy.", Draven smiled softly.
Angela then handed me Dagian, and I placed him back in the front backpack. "I got scared, Dagian. I thought I was going to lose you.", I whispered lowly, and Goliath then hugged me.
"He's a strong one like us, Sally. We will protect him all we could until he hatches.", Goliath rumbled softly as he kissed my temple warmly. I then told Aunt Karen and Uncle Hank that we would be leaving.
"You're leaving?", Aunt Karen asked in dismay and sadness. "We're sorry, but we have to leave before sunrise.", Angela said with a weak smile.
"Oh, right! Sally told us that you all turn to stone during the day.", Uncle Hank said with a nod. "It was nice seeing you.", Aunt Karen smiled warmly, hugging me again. She told me that she will call Morgan for me which I appreciated happily.
"We hope to see you again soon.", Uncle Hank said with a wide smile. "We will see each other again.", I grinned lightly as I hugged him. I then noticed the frozen Demona, and grinned softly as I chanted a spell for her to go off to someplace far away, where she wouldn't bother us or the Manhattan Clan who must be wondering about us.
"We assure that.", Goliath said with a nod and a smile. "Goodbye.", Elisa said with a salute and a grin. We all then headed back to the boat, and soon, we were off as the place was once again covered in mist.
"Even though we didn't get back to New York, it was nice seeing my old home.", I said with a content smile. "It was awesome to see that you lived on a farm!", Elisa laughed warmly.
"And all these animals, they were so cute and incredible!", Angela cooed happily as she remembered fondly. "Too bad that we didn't get to spend more time there.", Chris said with a sigh.
"Yeah, I agree.", Lacey said with a frown. "Don't worry. Maybe one day, we will come back.", Colin said with a reassuring grin.
"It could be nice to visit the farm on nicer terms than earlier tonight as we nearly lost Dagian.", Goliath nodded slightly with a heavy sigh.
"I was scared today. I thought I would lose my baby or that if Demona might have got her hands on him.", I said with a whimper and a sob. Goliath lifted my chin up to let me look at him, and he looked thoughtful.
"But she didn't as that's what matters now.", Goliath said with a look. "You're right. Thanks, Goliath.", I said before I kissed him gently upon the lips.
"Well, let's see where Avalon takes us next.", Elisa said with a reluctant and curious sigh. "I hope it takes us to where our brother is.", Colin said with a grin.
"I really want to meet him.", Chris said, nodding firmly. "Me too. I would like to see what he is like.", Lacey said with a excited giggle.
"I bet your brother is interesting as all of you.", Angela smiled brightly. I smiled at them, but I felt sad for them. For sooner or later, they will find out the truth about Blaze having changed so much ever since the death of his foster family. Oh, their hearts will break.
Goliath kept steering the boat forward, and I kept holding Dagian close to me, constantly seeking out the hum of heat and comfort. He's always sleeping for now, but I can't wait to feel the flutters from him as Goliath said when Gargoyle eggs are half-formed in 5 years by then, they occasionally kick so lightly which is more like flutters.
I then spoke to Colin, Chris, and Lacey about their brother. "So, wait, he knows how to use, what you humans call, a gun?", Colin asked in disbelief and amazement.
"Yes, he taught himself that as he knew that he had to learn how to defend himself.", I said with a nod.
"What else can he do?", Lacey asked in awe. "He knows acrobatics, and he is a skilled acrobat.", Elisa said with a grin.
"Wow! Our brother really is a warrior.", Chris said with a impressed whistle. "Yes, he has proved himself as capable to survive on his own.", Goliath nodded lightly.
"But wait, didn't you say that a human family took him in? What happened to them?", Angela asked in confusion. "They died a long time ago.", Elisa said sadly with a soft sigh.
"Oh, poor Blaze.", Angela said with a shake of her head in dismay. "Little Shadow must have been sad for a long time.", Colin said with a deep sigh.
"That was until he found us.", Elisa said with a smile. "You really seem to care about Blaze a lot, Elisa.", Angela said curiously, and I could see Elisa blushing.
"Well, that's because Elisa has a crush on him.", I said with a wide smirk. "Hey!", Elisa said, giving me a halfheartedly glare.
"No way!", Colin said in shock. "Really!", Chris said in surprise.
"That's so sweet!", Lacey said, cooing happily. "How did it happen?", Angela giggled softly.
"I slowly started to fall in love with him when we started hanging out.", Elisa said with a soft smile.
"Did you ever confess your feelings to him?", Angela asked curiously. "She did with a kiss, but Blaze left after that.", Goliath sighed lightly.
"Wait, why did he leave after Elisa kissed him?", Lacey asked in shock. "He knew how to love a family, but not how to admit to love within a mate.", Goliath sighed heavily, still not wanting to tell the truth of Blaze's past.
"But that's not right. Loving a mate is the best thing! I mean, look at Sally and Goliath!", Angela growled lightly in surprise. "I agree with you, because the next time I see Blaze, I'm going to give him a piece of mind for hurting Elisa!", I said with a snarl.
"Whoa, calm down.", Colin said in bewilderment and shock. "Sally, I understand why he's doing this. You don't have to do that for me. I will do that to him myself, alright?", Elisa nodded with a look at me.
"That's right. Blaze has to face Elisa to realize that he's truly the one for her.", Goliath replied softly. I sighed deeply, nodding as I took in their words to heart, but that doesn't mean that I could still yell at Blaze as Elisa is my best friend!
