"I was so close, so close!", Puck said with a groan, pouting. "I knew it." I said with a smirk.
"Question is, how did you find out?", Puck asked with a raised eyebrow. "Draven contacted me, and he told me what you were doing to Goliath and Sally, but why would you do this?", I asked curiously.
"Big daddy Oberon has already begun the gathering, which is time for all of us wayward Children, to go back to oh so boring Avalon.", Puck said with a snort, looking appalled.
"But why would you need Goliath and Sally?", I asked in confusion. "Oh, I thought they'd help me as they're so protective of their friends and family. So, the spell was to trick them into giving me the Phoenix Gate.", Puck smirked softly.
Draven then appeared before us. "Draven.", Puck said, looking afraid for the first time. "Be lucky that I am not sending you to Avalon right now for my daughter has caused her egg to grow rapidly.", Draven said with a growl.
"What?", I asked in shock. "When Sally was under the spell, she used magic, but by accident, it hit Dagian's egg.", Draven said with a sigh.
"What does it mean?", I asked in worry. "It means that Dagian will hatch any day now.", Draven smiled softly.
"That's good news to hear at least.", Puck smiled softly. "I'm sorry, Puck. But the Phoenix Gate can't be used right now.", Draven said with a growl as he grabbed it in his hand.
"What are you going to do with it?", Puck asked in curiosity. "I'm sending it to the one place you would never go near.", Draven said with a wry smirk.
"Don't tell me.", Puck said with a moan, slapping his hand upon his forehead as if he's recognized what Draven's saying.
"Yes, I'm sending the Phoenix Gate to Avalon.", Draven said with a smile. He then used a spell to open a portal, and he threw the Phoenix Gate through it.
"Great job!", I said with a grin. "Also before I leave, I need to tell you that Sally needs to go back to New York for her safety.", Puck said quickly.
"Also Dagian has to go with her as well.", Draven growled lightly. "Yes, she could endanger her child on Avalon.", Puck said with a nod of agreement before he vanished.
"I will send her and Blaze back to New York.", Draven said with a sigh. "Let my uncle, Elisa, and the others know.", I said with a smile.
"I will.", Draven said with a grin. Draven then started chanting a spell. The blue light hit me, and I blacked out.
I woke up with a headache, and I found myself in a field. I stood up, and I saw that I was in a park. "You okay, Sally?", I turned around to see Blaze. "Blaze!", I called out in joy and surprise as I hugged him.
"What's going on? Where are we?", I asked worriedly in curiosity. "We are back in New York.", Blaze said with a grin.
"What?! Finally! But where are Goliath and the others?", I asked in shock and wonder. Blaze then explained to me about Puck, and how he used a spell to trick us into thinking that we were in the future so he can use the Phoenix gate to prevent us from ever having visited Avalon.
"Oh, that tricky asshole.", I growled lowly as I held Dagian's egg closer. "Draven sent the gate to Avalon as he knew Puck wouldn't go near that place, and he also told Goliath and your friends that you would be sent back to New York.", Blaze said with a nod.
"Thanks, Draven.", I said out loud, and then I felt something was off about Dagian's egg as I felt him move. "Why does it feel that Dagian is moving?", I asked nervously and worriedly. Draven then appeared before us.
"Under the spell Puck had you in, you used magic, but it accidentally hit Dagian's egg.", Draven nodded lightly. I launched a spell at my baby!
"Dagian will now hatch soon, perhaps one of these days, but I'm not sure when.", Draven said with a helpless shrug while smiling. I felt excited for I was going to meet my baby soon!
"I can't wait to meet you, Dagian.", I said with a purr as I caressed my son's egg, amazed that I can feel him moving as that he was so silent before, but now, he's so active!
"Let's get to the clock tower, and we both will have to explain to everyone.", Blaze said with a sheepish chuckle. "Let's go.", I said with a grin as I placed Dagian back in his backpack, and then we glided off to the clock tower.
We soon saw the clock tower. "I can't wait to see their faces.", I said with a excited grin. "I'm sure they'll be happy even more when they see Dagian.", Blaze said with a smug smirk.
We then went inside. "Hello, everyone.", I called out, and all eyes turned to me in shock and disbelief. "Sally!", Everyone shouted as they ran up to me and they all gave me a huge hug.
"We missed you so much!", Brooklyn grinned brightly. "I couldn't believe that you're back!", Lexington laughed, looking joyfully happy.
"Did you eat so much different food out there? I bet they were tasty!', Broadway bellowed warmly. "It's great to see you, lass. We were starting to wonder if you'd be back.", Hudson drawled lightly.
"I missed you so much, sis!" my sister said with a smile, but I saw that she was a Gargoyle! "Morgan,you're a Gargoyle! But how?", I asked in amazement and wonder.
"Puck did this.", Morgan said with a grin. "Oh.", I said softly with a nod, and I then saw a ring on her ring finger.
"Morgan, that ring... Does that mean?", I asked in awe, my eyes widening. "Yep, me and Brooklyn are married.", Morgan said with a wide grin.
"Congratulations!", I said as I hugged her. It almost bothered me that I missed the wedding, but I am so happy for my sister! "Sally, that egg?", Morgan asked curiously.
"That's Uncle Goliath and Sally's child.", Blaze said with a laugh. "To make it more exciting, he is going to hatch in a couple days or so.", I said with a bright smile.
"I can't wait to meet my nephew!", Morgan said, squealing happily in joy. "Alright! I can't wait to be a uncle!", Brooklyn grinned with a whoop of joy.
"That's wicked awesome! He's going to be so cute for sure!", Broadway bellowed out happily. "That's the best news in this clan! Imagine, a hatchling in the 21st century.", Lexington chuckled warmly.
"We will be there for him all the time. A clan isn't a clan without some new blood to raise and teach.", Hudson rumbled softly with thought. "Where's Goliath, Elisa, and Bronx?", Brooklyn asked curiously.
"They still have to travel until Avalon sends them back here. Draven sent Sally back for the safety of Dagian.", Blaze explained for me with a gesture.
"I'm glad you're back!", Morgan cried happily as she hugged me. I then stared outside at the city, wondering when Goliath and the others will return.
"I hope you return in time to meet your son, Goliath.", I said softly with a smile as I caressed Dagian's egg warmly, feeling a kick movement, and I chuckled in amusement for Dagian is gesturing that he wants to meet Goliath in time as well.
Draven told us that Sally was now back in New York. Even though I was glad that she was back home where she could keep our child safe, I would miss her as we continued our travels.
"Don't worry, Goliath, we might finish our quest soon.", Elisa said, giving me a encouraging smile. "Elisa's right. You will see Sally soon.", Angela said with a smile, nodding in agreement.
"I know that I will.", I said with a warm chuckle. I then steered the boat to our next location.
I went back to my apartment with my sister, and I saw that it was still clean. "I kept it clean until you returned.", Morgan said with a smile.
"Thanks.", I said with a grateful nod, and Morgan then grabbed my hand. "Close your eyes.", Morgan said with a smile, and I closed my eyes as she led me down the hall.
"You can open them now.", Morgan said. I opened my eyes, and I gasped in awe and surprise as I saw the most beautiful baby room. The walls were painted light blue, and I saw a crib, a shelf with books, and a box full of toys.
"We bought another crib. It's in your room.", Morgan said, giving me a grin. "Thank you!", I sobbed happily as I hugged my sister. I then walked over, and placed Dagian on the crib.
"Welcome home, Dagian.", I said softly as I kissed the egg while Draven appeared. "Draven!", Morgan shouted with a wide grin.
"I missed you, Morgan.", Draven said with a smile. "How was your world trip?", Morgan asked softly in curiosity.
We then told her how we got to meet Gargoyle clans and Children of Oberon. "That sounds amazing!", Morgan said, looking amazed and excited.
"It was both amazing and dangerous as well.", I said with a sigh and a look at her. "We should tell the others.", Morgan said with a excited smile.
"Tomorrow, Morgan. Sally needs her rest.", Draven said softly. "Well, I will see you tomorrow, sis.", Morgan said with a wink.
"Goodnight.", I said with a giggle. She then left, and I then picked up Dagian's egg. I walked to my room, and I saw a crib next to my bed.
I then placed Dagian inside. "Sweet dreams, my little one.", I said as I kissed my egg softly. I then laid down on my bed, and I slowly fell asleep.
I went to the clock tower, and told everyone about my adventures with Goliath, Elisa, and Bronx. I also told them about Angela, Colin, and Lacey as they would join our clan once they return.
We then decided to open the bakery as I kinda missed working there. We posted up a message, saying that the Bakery was open again, and the entire day, there was a huge line of people waiting to go inside.
A few of them stayed for while as the Bakery is huge, along with Broadway's cafe, but there were still a lot of people. After the day would soon turn to night, we closed the bakery, and we all went back to the clock tower where Blaze was watching Dagian.
"Thank you, Blaze.", I said with a grateful smile. "No problem.", Blaze said with a nod, grinning softly.
"What should we do now?", Brooklyn asked curiously. "Let's watch the Lion King.", I said with a grin.
"I love that movie! It makes me feel emotional every time I see it.", Hudson said with a chuckle. "Me too.", Broadway said, nodding in agreement.
We all sat down, and started to watch the movie. I was thinking about the day Goliath would return, and when we can finally start our family together.
"So, Blaze, are you staying?", I asked softly in curiosity. "I am. After all, someone needs to protect your child.", Blaze said with a smile.
"Thanks, Blaze.", I said with a grateful smile. "Don't mention it as Dagian is my brother since Goliath saw me as his own son.", Blaze said with a grin.
"You will always be family.", I said with a look at him, smiling warmly. "Every time I say brother, it make me think about my older brother. I sure miss him.", Blaze said, sighing softly.
"It's okay, Blaze.", I said softly. I wish I could tell him that his brother and his siblings were alive, but Draven told me that it still wasn't time for him to know.
"Thanks, Sally.", Blaze said with a nod. "You miss Elisa?", I asked curiously with a smirk.
"I do, but I'm still not sure if I can be with her.", Blaze said, sighing deeply with a upset look. "Blaze, Elisa loves you as who you are!", I said, reprimanding him as I glared at him softly.
"I know, but I don't know if she can accept my secrets.", Blaze said with a shake of his head. I knew he was talking about the fact that he was still killing Hunters. I sighed heavily as I then stared at the city.
