2 weeks have passed, and I was on my way to visit Fox as I heard that she had just given birth to her child, plus, also my family will come later to visit, to see Dagian.
These past 2 weeks, I can't stop thinking about Goliath as I wish he and the others would come back, and I really want him to meet our child. I was gliding to the castle as Dagian was in my arms, and he was giggling happily. I then landed, and I saw Owen...with my cousin Sophie.
"Sophie, what are you doing here!?", I asked in surprise. "Morgan told me that you would be coming here, so I took my car, and drove here.", Sophie said with a grin, and she then saw Dagian.
"Is that him?", Sophie asked with adoration. "Yes, this is my baby.", I said with a smile as I handed her Dagian.
"You're so adorable!", Sophie cooed lightly as Dagian flapped his wings, and waved his hands around. She then handed me Dagian back. "Fox is with her husband as she is in her bedroom, so I'll take you there.", Owen said with a polite nod.
"Thanks.", I said with a smile. I went inside the elevator, and Sophie was on my right while Owen was on my left. We then got out of the elevator as Owen then showed us the door, and before I went inside, Owen told me something.
"Miss Sally, I ask you of a favor. Do not leave Fox alone with her mother, and also keep your baby in your arms at all times.", Owen warned softly as he left. I was confused immediately. What was that all about?
I then went inside, and I saw Fox, Xanatos, and her mother who I met back in Australia. "Sally, I'm glad you came.", Fox said with a delighted smile as I saw Anastasia holding Fox's baby.
"What's his name?", I asked curiously with a warm smile. "Alex.", Xanatos said with a proud smile.
"Sally, is that your baby?", Fox asked with a little gasp of adoration. "Yes, this is Dagian. He just hatched two weeks ago on May 15th.", I said with a chuckle.
"Can I hold him?", Fox asked politely and warmly. "Sure.", I said as I handed her Dagian. "Hello, Dagian. You are a cute boy, indeed.", Fox cooed lightly. Dagian smiled as he giggled.
Fox then handed me my son back. "So, Goliath still isn't back?", Xanatos asked curiously. Fox asked me before if she could tell Xanatos on where Goliath and I have been the whole time.
"No.", I said with a shake of my head. "It's sad that he is not here to see his child yet, but I'm sure that he will come back.", Fox said, giving me a reassuring smile.
"Nice to see you again, Sally.", Anastasia said, giving me a nod. "You too.", I said, nodding politely. "You must be Dagian.", Anastasia said with a warm smile as she noticed Dagian.
"I'll keep the baby while you sleep.", Anastasia said softly as she held Alex. "No!", Xanatos said, looking panicked.
"That's not necessary. I mean, we have a nurse.", Xanatos said as he took Alex from Anastasia's arms. "But David, I'm his grandmother.", Anastasia said, giving him a look.
"And you must be tired from your trip.", Xanatos said with a raised eyebrow as he handed Alex back to Fox. "What's going on?", Fox asked suspiciously and warily.
"I want to know as well.", Sophie said with a glare. "Yes, what exactly is going on?", I then turned around to see Boudicca with a blue Fae.
Draven,who is he? I asked quickly as I held Dagian close to me. I felt a growl from him before he spoke. It's King Oberon. Oberon, he is one of the rulers of Avalon, but what is he doing here?
"Who are you?", Xanatos asked with a sneer, protecting Fox and Alex nearby. "I am King Oberon of the Faes. My dear, why are you here in the human realm?", Oberon glanced at Anastasia.
"I am gathering even now.", Anastasia said with a nod. "We discussed this, my dear. It is my law that we do not directly interfere in human affairs. Let the two women keep their children.", Oberon said with a sigh.
"What are you saying?", I asked in fear, holding Dagian close to me. "Keep our children? Mother, who is this guy?", Fox asked, growing frustrated.
"Mother? Titania, what have you been up to?", Oberon laughed with a pensive glare. Titania? "Who is Titania? Mother, explain yourself!", Fox demanded.
"This should prove interesting.", Xanatos said with a intrigued yet protective look. "More interesting than you know. It's time to drop the facade, my Queen.", Oberon smiled eerily.
Anastasia was then surrounded by a green light as we all covered our eyes, and there stood someone else. "Much better.", Oberon said with a smug smile.
"Mother?", Fox asked in shock and fear. "You see me as I really am, child. I am Titania, queen of Avalon, and this is Oberon, my lord and husband.", Titania said with a nod.
Titania then used her magic to show us her life as a human. "Long after our union, I sent off to the human realm, met a intriguing man, and in the end, a daughter as a representation of my legacy.", Titania explained softly.
"Fascinating, my dear, and has your daughter possessed magic?", Oberon asked in curiosity. "Alas, no. Fox was raised among humans, but whatever magical abilities that she might have inherited have withered to nothing, though I can't say the same for Sally.", Titania said with a look at me.
"How so?", Oberon drawled lightly. "I have seen Fox in crisis after crisis, and she has a key mind, but her magic, if she possesses any, has never come to the surface.", Titania said with a resigned sigh.
"But on the other hand, Sally has been training to use magic ever since she was a child.", Titania said with a curious smile. I saw Xanatos grab a blaster from behind the bed.
"And what of their children?", Oberon asked softly. "That is what I was addressing when you came in, my husband.", Titania said with a nod.
"Although the bloodline is thin, he has great potential, and so does Sally's child.", Titania said with a smile. "With his pedigree, of course he does.", Xanatos said with a angry look.
"He has magic in him. I would not see it die as did his mother's. It must be encouraged, nurtured. And it's the same for Sally's son as well.", Titania hummed lightly.
"This is ridiculous! My son will be nurtured right here with his father and me.", Fox said with a furious look. "Same goes with me.", I said with a snarl.
"I agree with them.", Sophie said with a growl. "No, Fox, Sally. The boys must be taken to Avalon where they can properly train in their mystical heritage, but if of course, you will allow it?", Titania said softly to us before asking Oberon with a look.
"As I see it, Fox has turned out to be regrettably human. And thus we cannot interfere in her life. However the baby is still of our blood, and if it pleases you to take him, you have my permission. But for Sally, I may have to resort to dramatic measures as Sally is not of our blood, yet she retains magic, and her son has magic, nonetheless which is hiding at the moment, but still.", Oberon drawled warmly with a smile.
"No, you can't have him!", Fox shouted in anger. "I won't let you take Dagian!", I snarled furiously. "We won't let you do this!", Sophie shouted with a pissed off look.
"It's all right, ladies. No one should take a child from its parents no matter the species, and it interferes with the highest of affairs.", Xanatos spoke calmly yet I can tell that he's very pissed off. "I have made up my mind.", Oberon said with a firm nod.
"Too bad for you!", Fox said as she covered herself and Alex with a blanket, and I covered Dagian with my wings as Xanatos fired at Oberon. Oberon was sent flying as he hit a table.
"Stay beside me, Fox!", I said. She ran to me, hiding underneath one of my wings, holding Alex tightly. "Thank you, Sally.", Fox whispered lowly.
I saw Oberon summon a shield, and some of the lasers bounced back, but I saw Xanatos dodge as he kept firing at Oberon. Oberon then made Xanatos' blaster fly over to his hand.
"Interesting toy.", Oberon chuckled lightly as Xanatos ran over to punch him. "Boudicca.", Oberon said as I saw Boudicca tackle Xanatos! How could she do this?
I saw Boudicca holding down Xanatos. "Pity. It's a shame that a human is fighting for his child.", Oberon smirked lightly.
Xanatos let out a shout as he punched Boudicca off him, and he ran to Oberon. "I would not see you damaged further.", Oberon said softly as he placed his hand on Xanatos, and turned him to stone. I and Fox gasped in horror.
"Oh, no.", Sophie said, shaking her head in horror. I saw Titania reach her hand for Fox. "Get away from us!", Fox shouted as we ran to Xanatos.
"Can you help him, Sally?" Fox asked with a frantic look on her face. I was about to speak when Oberon interrupted first. "No need for that as the spell will wear off after we leave.", Oberon said with a smile. I saw Boudicca try to approach me with a happy look on her face.
"Get away from me, Boudicca! I'm so disappointed in you, and I'm sure Bronx would too.", I said with a glare. Boudicca whined loudly as her ears drooped, looking devastated.
"I am of heart, dear ladies. You may have one hour to say goodbye to your children before we take them to Avalon forever.", Oberon drawled softly.
Oberon and Boudicca walked over to Titania as the 3 glowed a green light, and they were gone. The spell on Xanatos wore off, and I saw him hug Fox as she cried.
I held Dagian close to me as I cried too, and Sophie placed her hands on my arm. Then our babies started to cry as they felt our sadness.
"What are we going to do? We can't let them take your babies.", Sophie said, looking upset. "I can't believe that I am saying this, but we need help.", Xanatos sighed deeply with a nod.
"Sally, please talk to Goliath and his clan to help us! I don't want Oberon to take away my baby!", Fox sobbed. "Fox, you're my friend, and I understand,how you feel. Don't worry, we will do whatever it takes to stop them.", I said with a determined growl.
"Thanks, Sally.", Fox said softly as she sniffled, looking grateful at me. "How can we do this to prevent them from taking the children?", Xanatos looked crestfallen with a growl.
"I think I have a plan.", I said with a smirk. "What is it?", Xanatos asked anxiously. I then told them of my plan. I then headed back to the clock tower, and I saw my family.
"Sally!", everyone shouted with happy smiles. "Aunt, Uncle, and Mom!", I called out in relief as I hugged them.
"I am only going to be here for a little bit, and then I'm going back to Avalon.", Mom said with a grin. "Is that Dagian?", Aunt Karen asked with a gasp of awe.
"Yes.", I said with a nod. "Can I hold him?", Aunt Karen asked excitedly. I then passed my son to her. "Hi, Dag, I'm your Aunt Karen.", Aunt Karen cooed warmly.
"And I'm your Uncle Hank.", Hank said with a wink, and Dagian then giggled. "Let me hold him.", Mom asked, looking anxiously excited.
"Hi, Dagian. I'm your grandmother, and I love you very much.", Mom cooed softly, and Dagian giggled. She then passed Dagian over to me.
"Sis, what's wrong?", Morgan asked in concern as she noticed that I was sad. "Something bad happened.", Sophie said with a angry look on her face.
The two of us explained that Oberon and Titania wanted to take my baby and Fox's baby to Avalon to train, but they would stay there forever.
"What?!", Uncle Hank said in shock. "How dare they!?" Aunt Karen said in fury. "How can they do this to you and Fox?!", Morgan said with anger.
"Don't worry, we will help you and Fox protect your babies.", Mom said with a determined growl. "I agree. Xanatos may be our enemy, but today, he's our friend. We shall help no matter what.", Brooklyn snarled lowly.
"Count me in!", Broadway nodded with a determined growl. "Just tell us what to do, Sally, and we will do it.", Lexington smiled with a determined look.
"This calls for every Gargoyle. Count me in as well.", Hudson grinned widely with a growl. "Thank you, everyone.", I said, nodding gratefully with a grin.
We then heard the clock tower door open, and we saw some figures. "Sally, stay behind us.", Hudson said with a look at me. I stepped back to stand near Hudson as I wrapped a wing around myself to shield my baby.
