Andrew lied motionless on the platform. His neck was burning with pain. Much like in his dream, Darkar carved a small face on the back of his neck. It was some sort of "insurance policy" as he had called it. Next to him on different platforms lied Kristina and Sou. To his left Kristina lied gasping for air as her legs burned with pain. Darkar had carved a pair of small robotic legs into her legs.

To his right was Sou. She had a small staff carved into her right arm. "It's my fault," Andrew said. "I saw this coming and I should have stopped it".

"It is not your fault," Sou said. "But right now we shouldn't be blaming ourselves. We need to find a way out of here".

"Unfortunately for you there is no escape," a voice came from the shadows. It was Darkar. "I was just expecting to turn you Sou but your friends will do great as minions".

"Let me out of here so I can kick your ass," Andrew yelled. "I will show you who the minion is you bastard".

Darkar laughed menacingly. "You silly child. Obviously you don't realize that the constant lying to you about releasing the power of the Titans was just to lead you to more anger making it easier to have you give me the Codex. I have been using you since the very beginning. Part of my Dna is in you. I changed you. The Codex just gives me the same thing I wanted last time. The Codex won't even open the gates of Tartarus".

"Oh thank the gods," Andrew whispered. "At least he doesn't want to do the other thing. Earth would cease to exist if he controlled the Titans' powers".

"I can hear you," Darkar said. "So it does give me that power. Can you show me the way?"

"Fuck you," Kristina said. "We will never let you be the most powerful wizard".

"Let me rephrase that," he said "You will show me the way". He casted a spell and Kristina and Andrew transformed into their dark forms. Sou transformed into a new outfit. Her top had become red and her bottom had become black. Her shoes were missing and her eyes were lizard eyes. "Now my minions let's begin".

Several miles away the rest of the Blitz were in the specialist's ship. All the girls but

Alex screamed. Kayla quickly grabbed her arm. A giant mark appeared where it was burning. It glowed green forming a staff. Lanie grabbed her chest. A marked formed there as well. It formed a small body on her chest.

"Girls," the pixies yelled. "Are you okay?"

"Yeah," they said.

"What are these?" Kayla asked.

"I…I don't know," Alex said. She turned around and went out to another part of the ship.

"Alex?" Minerva asked curiously. Following her she saw her putting her hand on her chest.

"I never thought this thing would continue stinging," she whispered.

"What would continue stinging?" Minerva asked.

"I…I use to have frequent lung cramps as a child," Alex lied.

"I can tell your lying," Minerva said.

Alex pulled the top of her top down. It revealed a symbol that was like an arrow but on top there was a circle and a half circle was on top of the circle. "I have another symbol as well. It appeared when I was only ten. No one knows about it except you. Not even Andrew or the girls".

"Why not?"

"I…I am embarrassed by it. Please don't tell anyone. I don't even know what those symbols do?"

"I don't know either".

The door opened. Kayla was there. "We are here," she said. As the girls unloaded the boys kissed their girls.

"We will join you as quickly as possible".

"Let's go girls," Lanie said
