Spells and Louds
Chapter 393: Princesses and Dark mages.
(Great Gate, Spellman Estate.)
"So, let me get things correct here, you two are now working for Hollow and are trying to regain some redemption after all the bad things you guys did?" asked Talia.
Right now, we are by the Great Gate and who are there? Lincoln, Linka, Jordan, Sunset, Iris, Talia, Aurianna and of course the twins Mephisto and Praxina and the Royal Defenders trust them, but do the princesses do? Let's find out!
"So, we should give you a chance to be friends with us?" asked Aurianna as she has her arms crossed and Amaru also seems like he can't trust them.
Mephisto sighs. "Okay, okay. We know we have done some wrong things to all three of you, and to the other two as well. Where the heck are they anyway?"
"You mean Lyna and Carissa? They went back to Ephedia to be there for their families. You know, they're families who have spent a long time in fear from Gramorr?" said Talia.
This made things less comfortable for the two dark crystal mages. "Guys, we used to work for Gramorr and we thought we were getting some kind of reward for our services, we didn't know that he would do something so diabolical to enslave the whole world" said Mephisto.
Praxina chuckles nervously. "Actually I have something to admit." They all look to her. "I was in it for the whole evil thing like Gramorr, but that was the old me and ever since Mephisto gave his life to save me, I learned just how much I've missed and I do not want to be the old me. Also, Banes tried to approach me when I was in the forest."
This made them shocked. "Banes tried to go to you?" asked Iris.
"She's not lying princesses. I was able to come to her aid before Banes could turn her into the next Gramorr and we owe all of what is happening to us now to the great and all-powerful Sith Lord Hollow Cabal!" said Mephisto. (Cue Star Wars Empire theme.)
"Yes! Lord Hollow is all mighty and truly proves to be far superior and promising that Gramorr ever could! Plus, he sees that we can find a path far better than the old evil life we had!" said Praxina with cheer and determination. (Cue Star Wars Empire theme.)
They look to them confused and then they look to Lincoln, Linka and Sunset.
"They really are changed girls, they wanna be better people and pledge themselves to aid in the defense of the realms against evil, such as Banes" replied Lincoln.
"They proves it to us when we were in Norrisville and they aided the Ninja's into fighting some ugly robot monster, they were pretty good with team work" replied Linka.
Sunset looks to all of them. "To be honest I was told whatever information was needed, because I have no clue the heck is even happening. I'm Sunset Shimmer by the way."
They shake hands with Sunset even Mephisto and Praxina shake hands with her. Iris then looks to Praxina. "I know we have had a lot of differences and we have had times when we were enemies and times when we had to team up, we'll give you two a chance."
Talia and Aurianna are shocked. "What?"
Mephisto and Praxina are also shocked. "What? Really?"
Lincoln and Linka smile. "Good call Iris."
Sunset looks back and forth at the different parties. "This suddenly looks like what I kinda went through back in Canterlot High."
Iris looks to her two friends. "Girls, let's give them a chance to prove they are changed and that they can be our friends and perhaps ardent defenders of Ephedia or help us hunt down Banes."
"Yes! The one thing I wanna see is that mangy cat cowering in fear! We'll be the ones who'll give him the creeps!" yelled Mephisto.
Praxina sighs. "Yeah, he really hates Banes and has always seen him as a kind if creepy cat. Heck, he even had a slight fear of him."
"I did not!" yelled Mephisto. He then crosses his arms and looks away. "He just startles me, that's all."
Praxina smirks. "Yeah sure. But also, we can't be helpful to you girls yet, not until our master tells us that we can be let loose and perhaps be leading an imperial outpost on your earth. Mephisto and I still have a lot to learn from the book our master gave us and it said that the Guardian made it. A book on Dark crystal magic."
This confuses them. "The Guardian gave us a book on advanced and new spells of Ephedian magic, why would your master have one, but in dark crystal spells?" asked Aurianna.
"He said he was given it by the guardian himself, saying he studied in both Crystal and Dark Crystal magic in the world called Azeroth" replied Mephisto. "Would be nice to go there one day."
This made perfect sense to them. "Huh, so Gyro was more than just normal crystal spells. You know what? Fine, we'll give you two a chance to prove yourselves that you two can be trusted."
Mephisto and Praxina smiled hearing this. Praxina felt like this was something that happened to her, once before. "You guys won't regret it! So how do we prove ourselves?"
Aurianna then has an idea and she rallies Iris and Talia and they listen in. This made the dark crystal mages nervous and Lincoln, Linka and Sunset can tell something was up and might not be so good.
The three princesses and Amaru look to the twin Dark Crystal Mages. "Okay you two, today you're both going to spend some fun with all of us here in Royal Woods and at the first place we're going" said Iris. She then looks to Lincoln and Linka. "So, where are we going again?"
Lincoln and Linka look to each other and nod. "Dairyland Amoosement Park!"
They were all confused. "Dairy what?"
"You guys are gonna love it!" said Sunset. "It's kinda like an ordinary amusement park, but it's all dairy themed!"
They all looked to each other. "Okay, let's go there then. This should be fun" said Talia.
They all head to their rides, though the three girls and Mephisto and Praxina ride with Sunset in her red Ferrari. Then Iris asks. "Where is your master Hollow anyway?"
"We were dropped off here and he went off to the FutureTech base for something" replied Praxina. "We have no clue as to what he's doing, but we both know it's his personal business."
Lincoln and Linka then realize what they were doing there. They were told about this from their dad, Neil. "Oh boy."
(Somewhere in the FutureTech training room.)
The main area is cleared and looks like a labyrinth and Neil is walking around with a cannon weapon in hand and some night vision goggles and armor. "Where the fuck are you retards at huh? You guys wanna go? I took down the two nerds and I can take on any of yo fools!"
What he doesn't know, that someone is at the top of the large tower structure and has a sniper rifle modified cannon weapon. He gets a lock on Neil and shoots out a t-shirt at high speed. Wait a minute! Hold up! Are they carrying T-Shirt cannons?!
Neil is hit and he's now on the ground groaning from the pain of that high speed Star Wars T-Shirt. "Ow!" But then he's hit by multiple more from the same person. "What the fuck?!" T-Shirt barrage. "Hey!" T-shirt barrage. "I'm already out!" T-shirt barrage. "The game is over, you won asshole!"
Hollow leaps off the tower and is in front of him with shades and his heavily armed Star Wars T-Shit cannon and a deep voice is heard.
"Finnish him!"
Hollow then goes rapid fire and keeps shooting. "Diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiie, you piece of shit!"
Neil is now in complete pain and covered by so many Star Wars themed T-Shirts. Hollow reloads his weapon. "I am so cool!"
Then the lights turn on and the others go to him, all of them victims by Neil and Hollow's assaults. Who are they? Leon, Sergei, Martin, Victor and Jack Cyber.
"What the fuck is wrong with you dude? This was supposed to be fun and you went too far!" said Leon.
"Can …. Can someone …. Get me out? Please?" said Neil under the pile.
(Back to the others.)
"Where are the other Royal Defenders at?" asked Aurianna.
"All of them have their own things to do" replied Linka. "Lori and the other teens are chilling at the Royal Woods community pool, no clue where Gyro is, Jordan is with her family enjoying some peace and quiet time and Luna and Sam are in the house and coming up with some new songs for late August perhaps."
"And I hope they will let the songs I have requested be part of it, if not then I can wait" replied Sunset. "Alright, so we're all here now. Next stop, Dairyland!"
They all hop on their rides. Though Lincoln and Linka use their Netherdrakes and they fly off and Sunset drives off and they make their way for the Dairy themed Amoosement Park in America!
Talia sighs. "This is not what I expected." She and Aurianna are in between Mephisto and Praxina, it is spacious back there but this is getting kinda awkward. Iris is up front next to Sunset.
"Also, we look forward to performing in Royal Woods this Friday" said Iris.
"Don't worry girls, the whole thing will be setup and we got your backs for it" replied Susnet. They all look forward to Friday, when they show Royal Woods and that Earth, who the Lolirock girls are.
(Dairyland.)
They soon make it to the Amoosement Park and see how amazing it looked. "Whoa! This place looks so much fun!" said Aurianna. "What's with the big cow in the tutu?"
Lincoln and Linka and their Netherdrakes land down and they hop off. "That would be Tippy, she's the mascot of the place."
"I can hear so much screaming and yelling here, and I know this is not a place for torture" said Mephisto.
"You guys are so going to enjoy this place!" said Sunset. "Let's get going guys!"
They all head inside. Iris and Aurianna seemed excited by this place, while Talia, Mephisto and Praxina had some doubts about this and they felt as if this could end badly, sort of.
They look around and see all the happy faces. Mephisto then sees a little girl crying, so he goes to her.
"So, which ride should we go on first?" asked Aurianna. "There are so many amazing rides!"
"I see a lot of kiosks and some food stands, this place does seem like your ordinary amusement park" said Iris. Sunset then gives them utter themed hats. "What the heck is this?"
"These are like traditional here" replied Sunset. They see Linka, Lincoln and the Netherdrakes also wearing some on their heads and they have cotton candy with them.
Talia looks at herself in the mirror. "I look like a joke wearing this, and also a cow." Aurianna chuckles at that and she hugs her friend.
Praxina also looks to herself with the hat. "Yeah, this is weird now. What do you think Mephisto?" She looks around. "Mephisto? Mephisto?" They also see that her male twin is gone. "You have gotta be kidding me?! Why do things like this happen to him at times?"
"Where the heck did Mephisto run off to? the bathroom?" asked Sunset as she has the hat for Mephisto.
"Does he normally get lost when you and him go someplace?" asked Linka who is eating a cotton candy.
They all look around for him. Then Iris sees him. "There he is!" They see Mephisto talking to a police officer and the little girl hugs him and goes with the cop, but then the mother comes and hugs her daughter and she thanks the officer and Mephisto and he heads off back to the others.
"Hey guys." Mephisto then sees what they have on their heads. "Umm, what are you guys wearing?"
Sunset then places one on his head. "There, now you're just like us!"
Mephisto looks to himself and laughs. "Wow! I look like Pappy!"
Iris goes to him. "What were you doing with a little girl and a police officer Mephisto?"
"Oh, well I saw this kid crying and I asked her what's wrong and she said she was lost, so I helped her look for her mother and instead we found the officer and I told him everything and then like magic her mom shows up and they thanked me for helping them come together" replied Mephisto.
They were shocked by this. Praxina hugs him. "Whoa. Take it easy sis, I'm fine" replied Mephisto.
Then Praxina gets angry. "Do not do that again, even though it was nice of you to help some kid find her mother, I do not wanna lost you again." She then hugs him once more.
They all saw how sweet this was. The princesses do see now how much they seem to try and change. Mephisto is trying to be helpful and also be sorta less bubbly and a goof and Praxina is showing signs that she does care.
They then break the hug. "So, which ride are we going to first?" asked Praxina.
"Let's go to all of them!" said Aurianna in cheer, they agreed with her idea. Well, Talia didn't.
Lincoln eats his cotton candy. "You guys go on ahead, Linka and I will watch."
"You're missing out on the fun kid" said Mephisto. They all head to the first ride they see.
Lincoln and Linka chuckle. "Yeah, sure we are." They know something is gonna happen.
(Six rides later.)
Praxina and Talia race to the nearest trash bins and they both throw up at separate trash cans.
Iris stumbles, but Sunset helps her. "Easy there Princess. Don't lose your step." They see Aurianna leaning onto the fence and laughing alongside Amaru who then runs off to throw up. "Well, she lost her footing already."
Mephisto however seems to be okay. "Woohoo! Let's go on another one!"
Talia and Praxina hear this and look to him in anger. "No!" they then look to each other and laugh that they just said that at the same time, they then feel something wrong in their gut and throw up into the trash bins once more.
Mephisto is freaked out by this. "Sheesh. Okay, just saying. So, should we play at some games?"
"You guys go on ahead, we'll catch up later" said Linka. "We'll stay here and keep an eye on Talia and Praxina." Lincoln and his sister and the two Netherdrakes wait for them to finish. "Let it all out girls."
"Okay, then." Iris then regains herself. "Let's go find some games to enjoy."
Aurianna hears this and is no longer dazed, but her normal and happy self once again. "Yeah! Let's go win us some prizes!" She then looks around. "Amaru? Where are you buddy?"
Amaru comes back and is still dizzy. Sunset picks him up. "You are just so adorable."
(After an hour of gaming.)
They all meet outside of the amusement park and seem happy. "Wow. We won so much and it was so nice of you to just let that little girl have your prize Praxina!" said Aurianna. She won so many plush toys and so did the others, well not much but she was an ace and won it big time!
"She didn't seem like she was doing her best, but she was giving it her all and that's what matters. Keep trying your best till you can actually make it, also she deserved it for being such a hard earning child" replied Praxina.
"She kinda looked like the same girl I helped out earlier when we got here" replied Mephisto.
The three princesses were happy to see Mephisto and Praxina making strides to prove how much they have changed from their old evil ways. "So, where to next?" asked Iris.
"We could go back to Royal Woods and head to Ketcham Park" replied Lincoln.
(Ketcham Park.)
They soon make it to Ketcham park and they see so many people and Faunus are there enjoyin this day. Lincoln, Jodan and Linka see Lynn Jr playing around with her new soccer ball and sneakers and personal jersey that she got from them on her birthday which was on July 5. Lynn is now 14.
They all make their way through the park and they see the many people and Faunus all enjoying themselves. This made the princesses feel calm and happy to see two different species, okay three species get along, the Pokemon count as the third species.
"Those Pokemon are just like Amaru, well almost" replied Aurianna.
Then Praxina hears a little girl crying and she goes to her, they all see this. "That's Darcy" said Linka.
They see Praxina comforting her after she fell of the swings. She uses her magic to cheer her up and they can see she also used her magic to try a new spell. "Crystal revujinalli." The bruise on Darcy's knee was gone and was fully healed. Darcy smiles and she hugs Praxina and she hugs her back.
Iris smiles seeing this and so does Talia and Aurianna, it was like something that happened before. Praxina soon returns to them. "She got hurt from the swing, but she's fine now."
"Nice job Prax! And you used the new healing spell from the book, even though it's not a Dark Crystal spell. I question why it's even in the book" replied Mephisto.
They continue their walk and then Aurianna has an idea. "Here." She lets Praxina hold Amaru.
Praxina is shocked by this. "What? Are you sure?"
Aurianna nods and so does Amaru. "Like old times, remember?"
Praxina smiles and she carries the Quilcat who liked the way she was petting his little furry head. Praxina chuckles and then they see something on Praxina's wrist. Something they have seen before. The purple and orange diamond and crescent patterned bracelet, the same one they gave her long ago.
Iris then asks her. "Praxina, is that?"
Mephisto sees the bracelet and is confused. "Hey Prax, when did you get that thing?"
Praxina sees this. "I guess, I kept it. After the incident when I lost my memory, I never did forget all the fun we had, as friends. It was … .It was really nice."
Mephisto is shocked. "Whoa that was a lot to take in." He sees the smiles from the princesses.
"It's nice you still recall that one and I guess we can all say it. We can fully see you two as friends, we can forgive you two but trust has to be fully earned" said Iris.
"Especially to the kingdoms back on Ephedia, we can learn to get along and I can see trust if you two are good at teaming up with us when we face something evil, like Banes" said Talia.
"You guys got my forgiveness and trust" said Aurianna. "And so does Amaru!" The little Quilcat laughs and snuggles close to Praxina.
Praxina chuckles. "Wow, Thanks girls, we'll do our best to earn the trust and forgiveness from everyone else, including to Lyna and Carissa. We just hope they won't be mad when they hear about this."
Mephisto hugs them all as they look to the sunset. "Looks like this is the start of a whole new friendship for all of us!" They all chuckle at this.
"Okay stop hugging us" said Talia.
Sunset, Lincoln and Linka smile seeing this. 'Looks like they have earned some of their respect, trust and forgiveness. It's gonna be a long, long way for them to be seen as true friendlies.'
Then Lincoln and Linka get a message from Ronnie Anne and Sid. "Get ready guys, we're coming to visit you at Royal Woods tomorrow!" Looks like they got some friends to spend some time with.
To be continued …..
A/N: It seems there is hope for Mephisto and Praxina after all, they could be great friends alongside the Princesses. Also, I am so sorry guys. I forgot about Lynn Jr's birthday on August 5 and Sid's birthday on August 9. But, there will be some mentioning's about what they did to help celebrate at some upcoming chapters. Leave a review and tell me what you all think.
