Arkeyan Armory

The Portal Masters walked down the Great Chain of Time and entered the Arkeyan Armory. Rose and Sara were proud to be here as they were in the presence of their ancestors' creations. The team then walked forward to the platform where the hologram of the Weapon Master appeared before them. Rose and Sara also stood beside the Weapon Master as he was about to give his speech to the group and also to warn them about the caverns that form Rose and Sara's Arkeyan Armory.

"These caverns hold much of what is left of our once proud civilization." The Weapon Master said gesturing to Rose who stood to his right and Sara who stood to his left. "Restore power and you will find the Eternal Magic Source within."

"Then let's go get it." Hsi Wu said only to be stopped by the twins and a warning from the Weapon Master.

"But be warned," The Weapon Master advised, "Restoring power will also awaken the ancient Arkeyan Defenses that have lain dormant for thousands of years."

"Are you ready for this?" Rose asked the JTeens, "Once we step through there is no turning back."

"We're ready." Colleen said as the rest of the JTeens nodded, "After coming this far we're ready to recover the final component of the Core of Light."

"Then follow us." Sara said, "Our armory is going to be filled with dangerous traps and defenses."

So the JTeens followed the twins through their ancestors Armory and led the way to the power switch.

"At last - It is time." The Weapon Master said, "After Untold Ages of Darkness - Light."

Rose and Sara flipped the switch and restored power to the armory. Everyone could then see how much of what's left of the Arkeyan Civilization. There were rows of giant robots on the lower floor and there was even a giant robot. The group then decided to go continue on to the Unyielding Garrison where Skylanders of the Tech Element like Drobot and Trigger Happy had the advantage.

The group then met up with the hologram of the Weapon Master and asked him about the Defenses.

"So about the Automated Defenses," Ice asked, "How many of them are there?"

"There are many automated defenses ahead." The Weapon Master said.

"So can we shut them down or not?" Hsi Wu asked.

"Unfortunately we cannot deactivate them." The Weapon Master said again much to the Sky Demon's dismay.

"Then in that case we had best press on ahead and hope for the best." Rose suggested as she and Sara hoped some of the

"Allow us to take the lead." Drobot boomed as he and Trigger Happy, whom Chrissie summoned earlier, appeared to help out. Between the two of them they blasted their way through the control towers and the defenses.

"I'm glad we took Trigger Happy and Drobot down here." Spyro said, "Drobot practically fits right in here considering he created his suit from Arkeyan Technology."

"That's true but there's still the matter of blasting through the rest of the Defenses." Drobot reminded, "I'm not sure if I have enough power to do it alone."

The other Dragon Skylanders didn't say anything yet as they arrived at the Halls of Molten Fire. They were then met with a hologram of the Weapon Master as he was placed next to one of the War Machines.

"The defenses are alerted to your presence." The Weapon Master said, "Soon the War Machines will awaken."

"Okay so how are we going to get passed this?" Ice asked, "I could just create some lava bridges or something."

"You must activate this one and fight your way to the inner chamber before it is sealed shut and the War Machines Rise." The Weapon Master said.

"I can handle this." Chrissie said as team hopped into the War Machine while the Dragons Skylanders that could fly flew alongside the War Machine.

Bash, Camo and Zap levitated behind the other dragon Skylanders compliments of Sara casting levitation magic on them.

The War Machine then awoke and began walking through the Halls of Molten Fire.

"Fear not Portal Masters, I am still with you." Eon's voice said to the group. "Follow the commands to control the War Machine's powerful weapon systems."

"So what do I do first?" Chrissie asked as she was Piloting the giant robot.

"Press the main attack button to fire." Eon said as copters appeared from nowhere. Chrissie fired the primary attack button and magical energy blasts hit each and every copter in sight.

Chrissie was doing well handling the Arkeyan

"Platform at 12 O'clock." Colleen called, "How do we get past that?"

"Press the secondary attack button to punch the Platforms and the automatons." Eon said to Chrissie again who did as he said and used the robot to punch the Arkeyan robots and blast the copters.

"Chrissie's getting the hang of controlling the War Machine." Bash said watching the show.

"I'm glad the twins made the right choice letting her pilot one of their ancestor's creations." Cynder said, "She's mastering that machine quicker than the others."

"Such is the power of the Eternal Tech Source." Zap commented, "Chrissie's new found power is derived from that."

"And don't forget she was also the smart one of the group." Camo reminded. "Its no wonder the Eternal Tech Source gave her some of its power."

"And lets not forget that Rose and Sara also have another secret of their own." Sunburn reminded, "One that they'll reveal when the time comes."

"And something tells me that it involves the Eternal Sources." Spyro said as Chrissie piloted the War Machine and even faced down an enemy War Machine.

After a few blasts and some punches the enemy robot was defeated and sank back into the lava. Chrissie then piloted the War Machine through to the inner chamber and onto another platform of the armory. This time Colleen flipped the switch and restored power to that section of the Armory.

"Behold," The Weapon Master said, "The Eternal Magic Source."

"Okay so where is the Eternal Magic Source?" Cody asked.

"You will find the Eternal Magic Source in the Main Vault, at the center of our temple." The Weapon Master said.

The JTeens could then see the Eternal magic source inside a very well-fortified vault. Rose and Sara's Arkeyan Ancestors made Section 13's security vault look like child's play.

"Okay so how do we unlock the vault?" Ice asked knowing that it was going to be sealed tight.

"In order to unlock the Main Vault, three switches must be activated in smaller vaults." The Weapon Master responded, "These Vaults will require a security key card."

"So where's the key card?" Colleen questioned.

"You will find the security key card somewhere in the lower level of our temple." Weapon Master said, "Find it and bring it back to the main security panel."

The Portal Masters then headed into the Crucible section of the armory where Air Skylanders like Whirlwind were stronger. They ran into more of the Arkeyan defenses but they fought their way through them until they reached the Eternal Magic Source.

"Behold – The Eternal Magic Source." The Weapon Master said, "It is imperative that you now retrieve the security key card… THERE!"

The Portal Masters didn't say anything else as they continued to the Vault Section of the Armory. Colleen and Spyro took the lead since Magic Skylanders were stronger in that area. Even with the Arkeyan Defenses guarding the place Colleen and Spyro blasted their way through to the Security Key Card.

"Excellent – you have found the security card." The Weapon Master said, "Now bring it back to the Security Control Panel."

The team headed back to the Security panel where they ran into two Arkeyan Ultrons but with help from Colleen and Spyro once again the two of them made short work of the robots. They then proceeded to take the security key card to the security panel in order to unlock the smaller vaults.

"You have succeeded." The Weapon Master said to the team, "Now deactivate the three switches within the smaller vaults."

The Team split up in teams of two and headed to each of the three smaller vaults in

"All Switches are now unlocked. You may now retrieve the Eternal Magic Source, the final component of the Core of Light." Weapon Masters said to the group as they all headed together to the main vault.

"Go on Colleen." Rose said, "The Eternal Magic Source awaits."

"Its been waiting for one worthy to grant its power to," Sara said, "And as the leader of the JTeens I can't think of anybody better

Colleen didn't need any more motivation as she went to claim the Eternal Magic Source. The Source itself sensed Colleen's Magical potential and granted her some of its power as well as the ability to use any and all forms of Magic. The Eternal Magic Source then teleported the group back to Ruins.

"Portal Masters you have retrieved the final element, The very essence of Skylands, The Eternal Magic Source." Eon's voice said as the Eternal Magic Source hovered before them, "The Core of Light is reborn."

The Eternal Magic Source then added itself to the core as it blended itself right into the Crystal in the core of the machine. Everything stopped working for a few seconds before the machine began working at its maximum capacity as the great machine shot a beam of light into the sky driving away The Darkness. The Core of Light also upgraded the powers of the JTeens save for Drago and Hsi Wu as well as restoring the balance of power between Rose and Sara.

Back at Kaos' Flying Fortress Kaos was walking about when Glumshanks came in looking a bit singed.

"Why what's the matter Glumshanks?" Kaos asked, "You look different."

Glumshanks was a little ticked off and ready to lose it before the dark clouds faded as the skies turned to light opening the windows in Kaos' fortress blinding the two villains forcing both of them to shield their eyes.

"What the?" Kaos yelled in surprise at these turn of events, "Are you kidding ME?!"

"Glumshanks?" Kaos yelled trying to find his butler.

"Master?" Glumshanks asked still disoriented.

"Glumshanks?" Kaos yelled

"Master?" Glumshanks questioned.

"Glumshanks get us out of here! Full speed ahead!" Kaos yelled, "To the outlands."

The Flying Fortress flew at full speed to the Outlands all while Kaos complained.

"Ah my Darkness. My Beautiful Darkness." Kaos yelled, "Well I'm not beaten YET!"

Back at the machine everyone saw the great machine at its full capacity

"We did it! Wowsers! The Core of Light finally assembled! Now a grateful Skylands thanks me again. And you are welcome." Flynn said before adding, "Boom!"

"Get over yourself." Cali said, "Things don feel like they're you know quite done yet."

"Oh I see. That's because we haven't had our date yet." Flynn replied, "DOUBLE BOOM!"

"No Cali's right. The Core of Light has saved Skylands from The Darkness but not from the wrath of Kaos." Hugo reminded before the twins took over.

"Hugo's right." Sara said, "Kaos used his strongest minion to destroy the Core of Light."

"And as long as Kaos has that very same minion he can destroy the Core of Light at will." Rose said, "It's not over."

"So what you're saying is that we did all that work for nothing?" Hsi Wu grumbled. "Well that stinks."

"So what are we supposed to do now?" Cody asked.

"We go after Kaos himself." Chrissie replied. "It's the only way to restore true piece."

"Only problem is how do we find him?" Ice asked, "He could be anywhere."

"Actually he's in the outlands." Rose said, "Before the Darkness was banished traces of its power clung to me increasing my power over the Moon and the Darkness."

"And the Core of Light also has given me the coordinates on where to find him." Sara added, "as well as increasing my power over the Sun and the Light

"I could positively kiss you both right now." Hugo said to the twins.

"Not right now Hugo." Rose and Sara said in unison.

"You're quite right." Hugo said, "Now that we know where Kaos' fortress is the Portal Masters can mount a final assault!"

"So how do you plan on getting us there?" Ice asked.

"The Core of Light of course." Hugo said proudly before turning serious, "Rose Sara. Are you ready to help the JTeens take on the Evil Kaos and rid Skylands of him once and for all?"

The Arkeyan Sorceress Twin Queens said yes and that they were prepared to help the JTeens defeat Kaos once and for all.

"Excellent." Hugo said to the twins before turning to the JTeens, "JTeens are you ready to help the Arkeyan Sorceress Queens take on the Evil Kaos and rid Skylands of him once and for all?"

The JTeens all said yes and that they were prepared to fight Kaos and help the Arkeyan Sorceress Queens.

"Splendid now I'll just use the Core to send you there." Hugo said walking over to the great machine, "I just punch in a few coordinates and."

The Portal Masters were all in bubbles that were heading to the Lair of Kaos.

"Wow I guess the Core works pretty fast." Hugo said surprised.

"I sure wish we could go with the Portal Masters." Cali said, "Then we could all take down Kaos together."

"I agree Cali but somehow I think this is something our heroes must do alone." Hugo said in a solemn tone.
