" Damn!" Cain paced the room as his new lover slept.

Az opened her eyes . " What's wrong?"

" This isn't gonna be easy. He's too paraniod and cunning. More guards have been added. They know we're here and we're not trusted."

" Your right, damn. Come here."

He sat on the edge of the bed as she started massaging his shoulders. " We'll think of something ,Cowboy. Now that we're here he knows killing them will not be easy." She starting kissing his neck as his hand found her butt and he rubbed it gently. He turned as his mouth took hers. They giggled as they fell back in bed.

DG and Jeb were asleep in each others arms when guards burst in the room. Jessica started to cry as the guards arrested them.

" Under what charge ?!' Jeb asked.

The King walked in. " Treason. She's been bedding another.You. Pregnant by you. "

" You cheat on her all the time. You beat her. Is that not treason?"

" My kingdom. My rules." The King chuckled.

" Make me pay but not Jeb!" DG begged. " I know the penalty for treason. What about my daughter ?"

" Oh her she shall be exiled along with your sister and her lover." The King replied.

Jeb and DG looked at each other confused.

The King laughed. " Oh you don't know what your sister and his father have been doing. I love this! We arrested them too...while they were also in bed together. As I said their punishment is exile."

The guards dragged them away. Both lovers screamed each others name until they could no longer hear each other.

Jeb was put into a prison cell next to his father and Az. " Where's DG ?" Jeb asked.

" I was gonna ask you that." Cain answered.

" They probably want her seperate from me. We're too powerful together." Az added.

" You guys are getting exile. I'm pretty sure I'm getting death. DG is." Jeb told them.

" What?!" Cain and Az said.

" Treason. Jessica will go with you guys. If I can't save DG ,our baby and myself please make sure Jessica knows how much her mommy loved her." Jeb started breaking down.

Az got in the middle of the cell. " Do not interrupt me." As she went into a stance her hair flew about wildly. " She's above us. In the dungeon. Being whipped. They're forcing Jessica to watch.Poor baby." Az's eyes opened and were green. " Cain come here." He did. " Guard them. Never leave there side. I can't go with you."

" What?!" Cain asked shocked.

" I can't turn back from what I'm going to do. There's no other way." She kissed him and pushed him away with her magick. Az turned green and her hands slammed into the floor. Green liquid poured through the tiled floor and started spreading. The prison bars melted and guards starting choking and dying. " Go!!" Az screamed.

Jeb grabbed his father and forced him to run to help save DG. They ran up the staircase. Mirrors everywhere were breaking. Furniture melting. They saw a bruised and bleeding DG holding Jessica and picking up chips. Jeb raised to her and hugged his girls gently.

" Where's Az?" DG asked.

" She sacrificed herself Kiddo. Grab those travel storm chips and let's go." Cain answered. Cain grabbed Jessica and Jeb grabbed DG ,who wa nearly inconsolable.

" Everyone started choking or melting. The King melted. It was horrible.'' DG cried in Jeb's shoulder as they exited the castle. "Why didn't we-"

Jeb kissed her forehead. " We weren't Az's enemies." They turned back to see the castle become engulfed in green flames. DG buried herself in Jeb's chest. Cain took DG's chips and created a travel storm.

They landed on the Other Side. They traveled the world. Finally settling down in Austeralia. DG birthed a boy ,Wyatt Jr. A year later a daughter followed ,Azkadellia Rose. Cain kept his promise. He never left their side and was a wonderful grandfather.

Back in the O.Z. Ahamo's backstabbing was revealed. The people blamed him for the loss of their beloved princesses. He was hanged from the gallows and the Queen exiled. A democracy was formed and the O.Z. thrived.

On a beautiful day Cain planned to take his new grandaughter Azkadellia for her first walk around the block. As he opened the door he saw a woman cloaked in green. He lit up. " Az?!"

THE END...
