Announcement
Hikari Nova's comment of her last review a while ago threw me off a bit, but as I stated, I have a set limit for Morgana and no, this story is not a boardline smut story at all, and sorry for the long wait for this chapter as real life happens, which I will probably split into two arcs or so chapters, as this is not the "Big Arc" at all, but a smaller one to make up for the wait on the story itself.
And for those that left comments on my works for my pairings for all my fics, they are either Full Yuri or Hermaphrodite (Japanese terms it as Full-Packaged Futa/Futanari or Balless and also Yuri (mainly girls) pairings), and might make at least some new stories with either Bi-Sexual or Straight (but not at this moment of time, in the future perhaps).
For major spoils as others asked, Morgana has chosen girls with a set limit for a reason that will have things to occur when she goes to Hogwarts, and I also have plans of her girls going on adventures to test their wills and themselves, especially doing things that are adding more time to the girls as yes, they may seem like rarely placed characters, but I want to give some time for them at specific points of the story, to which this chapter has this slightly and before the big arc chapter comes to grow into, I plan for some of her girls to end up on some adventures through carefully chosen movies to be tested, and also, the other set of upcoming "Big Arc Chapters" to where Morgana will grow and discover for herself with hints of her girls or others joining her at specific plot points of those, to which yes as to mention at some point, I will be eventually adding "Tangled" and also "Aladdin 2" into this story, alongside some other things… Who knows, maybe the first mentioned movie might be next? Or after another girl? Who knows.
I might even add the "Mario Movie (Illumination Edition, 2023)" with a few twists and turns as well in this when Morgana and them are teens, and maybe in the near future, as another story too… Though it will be interesting to see how the Witwak and the Movie Versions react to seeing each other. LOL. I am also a Web Series fan on YouTube too to something considered as a classic series by now (besides SMG4 Series, still a fan to that, btw): Super Mario Bros. Z, to which in its own right, amazing, and those that have remade it in their own ways as well. That, and the "Koopazilla" Movie that turns Bowser into a Kaiju-Version to face GODZILLA (older version in Bit Animation).
So besides the fan mentioning comment by myself, if anyone reads the one female Author's comment in this story, please know she did surprise me but I'm not offended by it, as in terms, people have their own views of things and also as a very important reminder due to seeing some newer comments about ranking my works: It's just "Me, Myself, and I" (and not the movie, just quoting) working on my own stories as I have no Co-Author to further aid me with posting my works in a timely manner, or more ideas to bounce off to, or even to adjust in a way it would be perfect to the eyes of the reader… I do have some friends, but they are busy with their own work at times and I do rarely ask for aid from them too, but again, just "Me, Myself, and I" of most or all of my stories.
So if the flow changes in various ways of my stories, just know that even though I have some things in my own belt of my works in time and length, I am still a person who also has to do things, especially to what I announced about moving (which has happened at this point, from Dec 17th of 2022), as yes, some of the chapters seemed to be slightly like Hikari mentioned, but again as a reminder, this is not that type of story, especially since story is a "T-Rated Story".
Besides that with more spoils, I plan for the first of many girls to start their own adventure, and I choose a few of her girls to go next (after the next Morgana Adventure with two of her girls), alongside another chapter of Morgana, Sylvanas and even more Sirius for bonding time and more, as Ceraza would be going with them too for more bonding time alongside an unexpected adventure, when it occurs as let's say that one… Is not Disney Related, as there were also suggestions of me doing that from time-to-time and I decided to at least include two to four or more "Non-Disney Movies" before Hogwarts starts, as I want to get what movies I picked out into here before the "Saving Morgana Arc' or in terms that I already mentioned before as the Big Arc for her, and the one longest arc I plan to date based off My Poll I posted a long while ago, on The Site itself: "Pirates of the Caribbean" Franchise.
And if you have read or even known as to why I did so with Sylvanas, then you would understand why and also, as a spoil, I felt like it would be interesting as her as her grandmother, and Jaina as her Aunt, for future reasons when she is older and other plot points within the story.
Let's say you are all going to be surprised as to what I picked, and leave it at that, and to apologize further, sorry for the late delay to when I do post this, and my other finished chapters, due to family, writer's block, and the holidays combined alongside as mentioned in my other ANNOUNCEMENTS, moving, and even being sick at times, so hopefully this gets posted during or before it hits the end of May (or the date of 5/31/2023, on a Wednesday) or sometime within June of 2023.
Also, the Dinosaurs and the Dimensional Isle itself, will be included in later chapters with… Let's say, unexpectedly placed outcomes and more, from the one chapter featuring "Blue" and the "Indoraptor", and leave that to that, and more to which this time I will not spoil what outcomes came from it, despite already seeing from Amazon Prime the so-called final movie: "Jurassic World: Dominion", for free, which was good… I also saw the newest movie on Thursday of April 13th of 2023 with some family while on a small trip, "Dungeon and Dragons: Honor Amongst Thieves". It was fantastic and both theater and movie-owning to what I thought of it, but not sure to others who also saw the movie as well…. I have plans from that type of game, to have creatures (with either as is or my touch of course) to be added into this story as well.
So as to that, the few developing and upcoming chapters that I have mentioned that are coming up are for the girls that are bonded to Morgana as yes, Elsa is also going to get her own solo adventure in a specific choice of it as well… To what adventure I thought was decent enough for her, but not going to spoil anything else as it also has to deal with the "Saving Arc", too.
So the girls are going to be for this one, both Cassie and Chipana and to have the duo go along with Morgana and Sirius, as I have a specific movie in mind that can test their wills and reveal things to be having some secrets as well kept from Chipana via her mother, and more. I also have an idea planned for Trinaza and a few others as well, especially a particular EG OC I made a while back.
And during Hogwarts, do expect deaths or other things to her girls when it occurs as I also have been hounded by the set limit of "Morgana's Paired Girls", and to spoiler the future in terms, most would end up as such with an only few surviving to heal a bond-broken Morgana, in later years, and leave this at that, with unexpected results for their "Souls", and for those lucky enough to be "Reborned" as such.
And for the movie itself, the places and everything is based on the movie/movies themselves, so if I don't describe things a lot, they are based on the places and characters, which are the same voice actors too, and the creatures.
I also hoped you enjoyed the slight appetizer I placed for everyone only recently before posting this full set of a small Arc Set of Chapters for everyone, as it is the start of the remake of my one "Game Of Thrones" story itself, which that and a few others will be worked on in due time.
Also there are fighting scenes I thought to my mind's eye that appeared alright, but I won't spoil things as it has to deal with future events later on in way, way, later chapters. Took a lot of time and thinking to do so, quite a bit of time in fact, and without a "Co-Author", mixed with real life issues and whatnot as the fighting and other parts are keys in importance, secretly, on things to come later on in the story itself.
Anyways, here's the usual info:
Pairings Currently for Morgana: Cassie, Chipana, Death, Elsa, Shania, Bowsette, Koneko Toujou, Natsumi, Zone-Tan (9/13, as pairings stop at this point and won't be revealed until Hogwarts as tenth and eleventh is before/during Hogwarts (to which from previous chapters you already know who the tenth is), 2nd Year, and Fourth Year… And again, it may seem high for a pairing list, but it is that way for a reason to when or after the Triwizard Tournament, for Fourth Year's Summer; I will also do stuff to shorten the list once she's an actual teenager, due to things that I won't spoil, occurring, and can "Visit" them whenever she wanted, thanks to being a child of two particular entities and leave it at that (and mentioned as well above this listed paragraph)… Even though I just mentioned it.
Official Siblings to Morgana (in the future this will change when Morgana is old enough and back in her true world): Belle (Adoption). Will change or be added in future chapters, as a spoil.
Sibling Bonds for Morgana: Sorceress, Crystal, Ceraza, Trinaza, Kalcea, Leah (eventually after realizing from the title called out in future chapters), ? (Within the upcoming chapters), ?, ?.
Pairings currently for Ceraza: Keres (1 out of 3, decided to lower it so I won't get any more complaints).
Trinaza: Serina, Onita, Crumbelina (decided to only have three girls as of now, and yes, the four will have an adventure either with Morgana in a chosen movie in the future, or solo with just the four).
Anyways, I hope you enjoy the well-thought and timed and perfectly executed long chapter and the adventure of the two girls and Morgana, and at some point, I will be doing an eventual chapter that is detailing what everyone else is doing and more for them too… Amongst other things, and yes, that includes more movie chapters of Morgana with her other girls as well, and more.
The Arc isn't finished yet, but posting to what I have so far for everyone that has fav and followed this story for quite some time. Enjoy as well.
A few days after Morgana's birthday or August 6th (true year is 1993) 1588:
Morgana sighed while within her garden, seeing a few feet behind her were her two of many girls, Cassie and Chipana, and next to her while observing things was her godfather: Sirius.
She wanted some time to relax as her training was amped up and more from her time with Ceraza on her adventure, alongside her trying to control her magic with the aid of not only Claudia, but a few others, since nearly everyone was busy, and even Demona.
Speaking of her, her enterprise was built back up by a united company in America with a guy named Tony Stark… Whomever he was as the Young Chaosarinian never heard of him, but felt like he was familiar somehow, by the company being named Destiny Corporate Alliance's or D.C.A. (Dek-Ah), for short, and other co-partners with the man, and oddly enough, their formerly rivaled company she knew by the man named Xanatos, made legal and official papers for American Citizenship for Natusmi and her other girls by agreeing terms of Tony Stark financing and legalizing this as well, from what Morgana was told was the agreement that came with being in a partnership with Demona.
To mention Elisa, she is living in a mansion back in Morgana's true time's world with Demona, and was able to find the others that she promised she would introduce to her as surprisingly, the eldest one may have seen or heard of her royal race before, and to the reluctance of Xanatos and his wife.
Loki also visited a day after she came back and took things that Morgana gave him to study on his off time, while also finding out that Helen was pregnant with a little girl, and she was possibly due in early spring while also finding out that her mishap was no mere accident to bringing her into existence, which they planned to tell her in person when they next visit as to finding things out, and also wanting to be sure.
Back to her training, to mention this to everyone, Sirius was mainly instructing her of her core-based magic until he will leave back to his child to where the temple was within a week, by the use of her weapons as the focus, and Ceraza was resuming her training, and even Belle was relaxing as she was going to be due at some point with the twins.
Her friends and comrade's did visit from time to time, but only stayed a few or so hours and headed back to their homes, and Melody and Ariel left back with Eric to their home and stated that Belle had a surprise for her later today of finding things out from Adam, and knew those who were living in her actual time back within Salem, were regretful of not hanging out more but they have lives to do, especially since the Rainbooms and the three sirens (with aid of course) are running a successful restaurant/arcade mixed place they recently opened up, and even using the others as fake actors at times to improve their ratings, with their permission of course, and their building was declared the best one within a weeks or so's time.
Shania and Bowsette were both busy due to the growth of off-state car accidents and their clients demanding they fix their cars due to them being the best in the business, and with Sirius not only meeting them and her other girls, but both Ophis and Lucifer… Let's say that was an interesting affair and leave it at that, especially since she wasn't included for the private talks they had, and with him secretly funding the auto shop too, for further business.
As mentioned, Natsumi was also back in Salem and managed to befriend Eclipse and a few others, and was doing therapy for the nightmares of her previous existing realm and more, which Morgana understood her plight as her other girls are also having sessions as well for themselves with Twilight, too.
Yidhian, her personal genie, did state to Morgana only yesterday that a few or so days after the duo left, both Aladdin and Jasmine announced that they're planning a wedding in or around a year or two from now, and Genie is currently with them and making sure that the couple stay safe and sound, especially since Yidhian also informed her of some unusual characters the future husband and wife met too, and the genie herself was currently resting within the ring to fully recharge from overdoing things from being far from her, to which, she would explain when she wakes up from her recharging nap.
Speaking of items, her one living book from the Sanderson Sisters vanished one day and came back to sleep in her room on her recently made bookshelf from Chaos and a few mystery entities' motives they refused to state, taking him, but was for leads on something interesting as a small project of sorts, and with Discord aiding on that whenever he came back at times, in a secluded area of the land Adam's castle had.
Discord is still looking for his sister, however, but said he was getting closer to finding her, which was nearly successful with her living book but it was cut-off somehow by unknown energy and means they couldn't explain.
And also everyone, those that came to the holiday donated more to her garden with some being seeds from her few gifts, to which, "Careful Cassie, Numi doesn't like it when you touch her leaves in a bad way," Morgana called out from seeing the enlarged black colored with red and demonic leaves and vines of a particular meat-eating flytrap that has four glowing amberish eyes that nearly chomped Cassie's arm, from being immediately irritated from the leaves almost being scratched, and Cassie took several steps back with tossing the few rare steaks that was well seasoned from the kitchens to it in which it easily chomped and swallowed.
Morgana shook her head as that was her Aunt Jaina's few gifts she kept from her champion's donations and knew she was coming back while her grandmother: Sylvanas, remained behind to not only hang with her more but had nothing better to do while particular parties still held a grudge as to what she did when she previously had half of a soul and already finishing her pointed task early in a place called The Maw, to which Morgana didn't understand how that was possible and knew her grandmother was also talking politics with her sister and future brother-in-law, at this moment.
Some of which she knew their wedding was going to take place, but have yet to confirm the date of it, or where it would be held.
Mentioning family, Hades and her birth mother: Lily, left only recently from the urgent message that her big half-sister between the two, called them for and also planned to introduce her at some point, and was awkward but nice for Morgana to at least call Hades, Pops. That, and meeting with someone from a big group that for time-based purposes, have a paying hobby of sorts while doing their true duties and whatnot, when they feel like it, and part of a friendly group of sorts.
To mention another of her girls, Elsa was also visiting with her sister back at her home and promised to be back in a week or two, and Zone-Tan or Zee, to Morgana, got a lead over something and left not too long ago and stated she would explain when she came back.
Back to Morgana, she took sharp noticed of Chipana tripping over another plant from her aunt to which she called it from many as one various plants from when demons took over the land, a fel-sunflower or a Aqute Blossom in her worlds terms, and was soon picked up by the thorny yet slightly green glowing vines and began stating, help, by being juggled with a few nearby rocks for humored sport. "Azima, put her down or no sweet water later tonight."
That made the plant, if it could, pout, and caused Chipana to hide the urge to yelp as she landed face-first into some of the rare cushion bushes closeby that were growing rainbow berries or small golf-ball-like berry-based peaches in design that have random soda flavors.
"Got to say, Pup, that your gardening skills are more than Lily herself." Sirius commented as he sat next to Morgana with watching the two girls running from one of the more mobile and helper-based plants she dubbed as the Floral Attendants, which was a veggie version that was shooting green peas from its tunnel mouth at them from accidently getting sprayed with soy water, which she knew that servant: Melvin, hated.
"I know I only met my birth mom, but I hardly knew her or my birth daddy, Uncle Siri," Morgana confessed to make the man gaze to her in understanding with a hidden clenched fist at this and knew he should have stayed, instead of going for vengeance against that rat, but placed a smile on his face with gently rubbing her hair to hear a small giggle come from her lips before they watched not only Melvin was chasing them, but a Zebra Daisy named Molly, and a Blooming Cactus named Carl.
"Should we stop your plant-grown servants, or?" Sirius asked in hidden humor with seeing the duo girls run from the trio of plant garden servants with them finding and throwing the ice ball berries now that Loki provided from a shady person without much effort, and made Morgana gently shake her head before looking at Sirius as he was fully amused as she told him, be right back, and maneuvered with her appeared to be thinking for a few moments, took a few steps back and once her two girls went past her, she purposely tripped the trio as they were pelted by the ice ball berries to freeze all but their heads, and lying sideways on the ground.
Before she could say anything to the garden servants she grew from seeds given to her as one of her few birthday gifts, she and both girls and Sirius have a short shout of surprise as the four were sucked into individual holes with them landed on top of Sirius and with him letting out a loud 'Oomph' as they got off him, to see Sarah was sipping tea casually in waiting, in her preferred chair.
"Sorry to disturb your time with your godfather, but I figured you would want to let him join you this time on your adventure into a new book," Sarah explained before Morgana can ask her, and made the three girls blink with them taking a few steps back as Sarah sweatdropped from the unexpected excited shout Cassie did with inwardly, Chipana agreeing with her but was letting out wary laughs as she shouted loudly, "Finally! I get my chance!"
Sarah was silent as she offered Sirius tea, which he reluctantly did so before being amused of the situation as Cassie nearly falters by Morgana's words being reminding, "But you heard from the others what can go wrong on my adventures? Why are you excited to do this?"
"Cause from what I heard there were fun moments and more from them, especially since you guys encounter monsters, and even fought in wars and things!" Cassie explained back to make Morgana now warily laugh at Cassie's still enthusiastic face and attitude yet did falter face-first as Chipana pointed to the Potter Girl's body and even asked mischievously to get the excited girl to tint from, "So you wanted to end up as a monster girl or something then? As Our Mat- I mean, Mary, would be rather concerned about your head, and where or if you hit it while young."
Morgana sighed as the two began to bicker to one another with a gesture and look to both Sarah and Sirius, as she cannot stop those two from doing so at times unless they get distracted by something.
"Knowing you will inform those two, might as well tell you as to why this newer book is truly important and the consequences of what is there, is taken," Sarah began with making both her and Morgana blink by Sirius randomly guessing as he sipped his tea after his words, "It's not like it's a key artifact or something," to which he spat his tea out and hitting his chest a few times to Sarah's admission next, "Actually… That is spot on, but it's more than that."
"What's a key artifact?" Morgana asked between her godfather and Sarah, seeing he might know what it was with letting her continue and tried to explain the best she could to the Young Chaosarinian, "It is an item that can be taken from the book itself, for your case, or other things in other places… Sort of like the one item from the Sanderson Sisters of your world you are bonded to, as there is another one in a yet-to-be-awakened set of books in this room of an alternative version or time period, and considered the future time and place of Salem itself."
"Despite that, it's more as the Black Clan knows more about them, Pup," Sirius began with knowing Morgana was sharp in mind and was paying attention, despite worrying over her two girls now brawling with their hands and feet at this moment, "From what I recall, a key artifact is used as a part of a old ritual that's been banned in Magical Britain for two hundreds and seventeen years as an item or object used as a key focus for unlocking an empowered sealed tomb or something closer to a sealed-off location for something evil, or with an untold power of an entity, a creature, or even a cursed or powerful weapon… Even powers or other things related to what I said." He paused and shrugged before he finished, "It can still be done but you need approval and reasons as to why by The Ministry of either Britain or the other magical communities, as everyone mainly used Gringotts with losing interests of the art itself."
Morgana hid the urge to gulp at that as Sarah gave an agreed nod to her godfather and adding her own input, "And they can be reused as a unlocking for them as well, as they can be remade with the latent magic that was infused into them, being used and transferring into the remade item or more, and sometimes the object is sealed away into trapped temples or other interesting ways that people tend to hide things as such, even the soul of a person, as each one also holds an unusual or unique power or ability they will give… Rarely though, the item in question can pass said ability or power to said person who can handle it. Some may require particular ingredients to unlock some as such."
In her current time and world, a particular man sneezed before shaking his head and resumed training with two orangette girls and a boy around Morgana's age along with a few others they considered friends and family with, with unusual weapons or abilities they manage to keep but retraining from their former realm being destroyed, and also de-aged nearly everyone else into another age that was younger and as mentioned, to the Young Chaosarinian's age, and the two girls are not related to each other but one is to the boy.
Sorry for the brief break here, but if someone would guess who they are, then you get a cookie and more spoils unlocked before the next announcement of the next chapter, and with the first person who guesses it, being credited as well, as it was suggested by a family member due to being an interesting plot and more for later chapters during Hogwarts, and a hint for one of Morgana's Girls.
Anyways, let's resume?
As things progressed, Morgana looked worried as she had a unusual feeling of sorts to which Sarah understood as the child's necklace once again did as told, but they oddly heard humming that was loud enough to stop Chipana to try and bite Cassie's left arm alongside her also in the girl's retaliating headlock, as a swirling golden and shadowy vortex was made with faint traces of various and familiar flowers being easily scented.
Sarah soon gave them encouragement as the four went into the vortex, and within moments had green armored guards with insect wings to that of butterflies, held them at the weapons of their pole arms as the vortex closed behind them and Sirius being as he was, asked, to make the center guards glance at each other in confusion, and Morgana gently slapping her forehead from his word, "Parley?"
"What he means is that can you take us to your ruler or something?" Cassie bluntly told the guards as they seemed reluctant to do so, and Morgana used her tail to gently whack her girl on the head and didn't see the small glare Cassie gave Chipana by the small snort she did as they saw a few guards chattering to themselves quietly with seeing they were probably inside a castle anyways, but a polished wooden one of sorts or maybe even a fully furnished stone one.
Eventually they were being led by the guards into the throne room which wasn't too large but big enough to hold a small party to meet with the king, while he was sitting on the stone-etched throne with rose vines and accents to make the girls and Sirius realize what race they were: Fairies, but having butterfly-based wings in design.
Speaking of the king, King Dagda Whiteflower that is, he is an obese fairy with large dark red butterfly wings, light-blue colored eyes, gray hair and beard, a gold crown and green armor with gold details.
"What pray be this?" He asked one of the guards with seeing the way the three girls and adult male were to know immediately in moments, they were not fairies at all, as one guard saluted the king with respect and brought confusion to Dagda's face, "We found them coming from a vortex, your grace, and they asked to meet within your presence."
He gazed at them all with his eyes lingering a bit more on both Morgana and Chipana a few times before he did a hand signal, and the guards backed up away from the four yet still looked ready to carry out orders if need too, as he asked Sirius then, "Since it seems you're the elder of the smaller group, ask me this: Where are you from?"
Before he could state anything, fast blurs came into the room to make the Fairy King groan a bit as Morgana was blinking a few times in utter shock to recognize the area or more-so, the people themselves as it was two girls who were closer in terms, to their elder teens in age to pause what they were doing and look to their father in question about them.
The first is the youngest as she has blonde hair worn short and messy, silvery blue eyes, pink lips, pointed ears, pale blue dress with gold design with matching gloves and footed tights, large rose and pinkish-orange butterfly wings.
The other was the eldest as she was in terms, a young woman with hazel eyes, very short and spiky brown hair, fair skin while wearing a pale lavender gown and they both wore a silver tiara in their hair to know these were indeed the king's children, and had large violet and black butterfly wings.
They were both in order, Dawn Whiteflower and Marianne Whiteflower.
"Dad…" Marianne questioned him with cautious thoughts in her mind as Dawn waved at the small group to which they reluctantly waved back before Morgana sniffed something, and they immediately ducked as she sneezed a fireball that bounced and zoomed out into the inner-open courtyard and the royals winced at a seller now yelling in the distance of his sunflower seeds burning.
"Sorry about that, your highness… Something tickled my nose," Morgana hesitated in apology to which he only shrugged before questioning them once more, and being careful since his only two children are present, "So once more: Where are you from?"
"Well, we know this isn't our actual home or we are your kind, your grace, but may we introduce ourselves before stating things that must not leave this room?" Sirius spoke with his tone having a hint that King Dagda instantly picked up on and with being his amusement as Morgana tried and was failing to stop Cassie and Chipana at trying to purposely poke each other, and gestured to the girls with seeing they were busy, "These brats are Chipana, Cassie, and my goddaughter: Morgana Jasmine Potter-Evergreen-" they stilled as Morgana stopped her two girls with a firm look and King Dagda was rather mixed in moments, unlike his two daughters as they were utterly confused by what titles she told them, "And I'm the child of Lady Ophis of Infinity and Nothing, and to Lucina or Lucifer of the Fallen Archangel of Demonic Pride, and the last royal of my kind: The Chaosarinians."
"Then you are welcomed by my words to my kingdom then," he tells them to make the four blink as Cassie stopped poking Chipana who used her tail to secretly whack Cassie's backside to make her jump after, by her blunt yet startled words, "You accept us? Just like that?"
Morgana blinked back her own startled moments of shock as Sirius was glancing at her for a few moments before paying attention to the king as he did let out a chuckle to make his own daughters to look into this later, "Your kind aided either sides of both fairy and other kingdoms before I was born and was, when time called for it. The last few I met was when I was around seven and a half by the name of Lady Whitefang and Lady Shadoweave, a priestess and protector for the clan they was in, and an ambassador as well to Lady Whitefang."
Morgana shared a look to her two girls before she got an idea and made the fairies a bit curious alongside Sirius being baffled by witnessing her Hammerspace as a small black hole of a vortex as she grabbed a small bag of gemstones, and went up to the king and bowed at him as he reluctantly opened it to see it was enchanted blue diamonds or blue diamonds with magic infused into them by willing magical creatures.
It was one of the many Christmas gifts Morgana got and didn't know what to do with, knowing that she has various gemstones in her vault from the Goblin Bank, and figured maybe they can use them more than she can, as a quick ideal peace offering.
"This is rather pleasing as it's hard to come by these past our borders," Dagda informs Morgana gently as a servant grabbed the bag from the orders of the smiths to make weapons out of each one, and they soon were discussing things with both Marianne and Dawn as her godfather was talking about things with the king, until Morgana and her two girls blinked at seeing a male fairy came into the throne room with what she could guess was three lackeys or followers, and immediately didn't like the guy.
Despite the two older fairies cooing softly at him, which both Cassie and Chipana facepalmed to themselves at Morgana not understanding as to why they did that.
As his race, he has all of the typical traits found in a fairy/human-like stature and standing only a few inches tall, with pointed ears and a pair of brown and orange butterfly wings. He is notably handsome by fairy standards as well, possessing a muscular physique, strong jawline, flawless skin, light green eyes, and blond hair. He notably wears a shining green and gold armor with leaf-patterns all over his body.
This was Roland Heartgold, and he had his arms open in a greeting way before making a graceful bow to King Dagda and his three lackeys following his movements, "Well, hello My King! It seems like I came back in time for guests?" Here he glanced at Morgana, her godfather and her two girls in slight intrigue before returning his gaze to the king and was nearly knocked over by Marianne to which the four blinked as she gently kissed his lips to guess they were dating, or something.
"Indeed Roland, as I'm glad you came back dealing with the one situation that was called to attention?" Dagda agreed before asking as Roland flicked his hair to perplex Morgana even further as if that did anything, to which only made Dawn gently sighed to herself and her elder sister to gently hug the male fairy by his assured words, "Oh we took care of it alright, and mighty quick too without casualties."
"Good to hear, and close in time of your wedding to my eldest as well," King Dagda stated in a pleased tone to make Morgana have concerned looks from both Cassie and Chipana as she felt like somehow, Roland was lying on that but placed it to the back of her mind as the blonde male fairy blinked twice along with his lackeys at the king's next set of words, "We were just given a generous amount of materials to make enchanted blades for our soldiers, of enchanted blue diamonds from our new guests, and hope they're staying for sometime to discuss further things?" Here he gave Sirius a look to which he nodded in a gentle but affirmed gaze back with casually placing his hands behind his head as he leaned on the wall next to the throne, "Yes, as we did want to know what your race does and see if our tales are compared to yours, in truth."
"Indeed," King Dagda agreed with making both Dawn and Marianne be startled and making the three younger girls groan at this, and ignored Sirius' hidden gleam of amusement and surprise at the orders, "For the duration of their stay… I am placing you two in their charge, despite the wedding coming up as I figured why not you both give our guests more of a layout than my own guard?"
"But-" Marianne began as she let go of Roland to which she stilled from her father raising a hand up, and told her softly to get her to see and glance with noticing the three girls did, of her sister gazing googly-eyed at a random guard, "I have opted to give you two more responsibilities and this is the perfect opportunity for it. No objections." Dagda tells her as his eldest only nodded reluctantly and understandingly.
"I guess we can start now if you like?" Dawn asked the girls reluctantly, after she shook her head as Marianne gave Roland a goodbye kiss to his cheek as she left with the three girls of Morgana, Chipana, Cassie and her younger sister as well, guessing the three wanted to discuss things more without their ears present, and left the throne room.
Once outside at the ground entrance, the girls realized one thing: They were shrunken from their original sizes and height to guess from what questions they could explain, was in a vast land of a pocket dimension of sorts connected to the human world of Morgana's home.
That, and meeting a friend of theirs named Sunny Exama, ten or so minutes later at a small pond, to which he is an elf version of their realm that was brown skinned and with dark brown hair and a small triangle goatee under his lips to his chin, and chocolate eyes with medium pointed ears, and wore a ladybug hat of sorts with a beige shirt and tan overalls with basic brown shoes they guessed were made from leather of some type.
After stating a few questions to each other by the suggestion of Sunny to get to know one another, they blinked at Morgana as she blushed faintly by Dawn not believing what she told them, "You can summon an Air Aspect?!
It was moments later, Dawn, Sunny and Marianne were gently petting the lightly cooing Valefor as the Aeon of Air and Sky let them, with Morgana smirking at her two girls blushing at being caught at acting shyly around it as they did the same before she got an idea, and caused Valefor to appear to be thinking for a few moments by her unexpected question, "Is it possible to make Cassie and Chipana fly?"
They turned to Sunny who looked doubtful and not seeing the unseen challenging gleam immediately coming from the Aeon's eyes at his words, as he crossed his arms in sudden doubt on this, "I don't think that's possible without advanced magic invoked, as despite us elves and both Marianne and Dawn as fairies, it would take a hefty amount to do that…" he turned to his two friends and secretly, to his crush, Dawn, "No offense to that girls."
"None taken Sunny, but it would take a lot of our magic to pull-" Marianne assured their elf friend before trying to explain further until they all backed up as Valefor glowed a gentle hue of mixed white and an orangish-gold aura around it's entire frame as the Aeon let out a loud trilling sound with both Cassie and Chipana saw they were glowing the same colored aura as well.
Not known to them, back in Morgana's room, a set of bracelets were made in total in her one dresser she dubbed as her homework desk, to further this idea as this was temporarily placed while those two girls were in this dimension.
The Aeon then shook before smirking as Morgana blinked, and they jumped as Valefor vanished after in sparkles of faint mist and dust.
In moments, both Chipana and Cassie began to float and they gasped in feared-delight with the two fairies managing to catch the duo in time, and Morgana was the full attention as both Dawn and Marianne got her girls into the soil once again to make Sunny blink at her words of having the expression, foot in mouth, "Well, seems she accepted Sunny's challenge and did just that before going back into me to chit-chat with my other Aeons."
"Whelp, seems we have flying lessons now," Marianne groaned out to only get a giggle out of her sister as Dawn said to her comfortably as she did see Morgana's wings she had summoned out with a wince, "Well, at least it be easier to make them keep up with us wherever we go."
They were rather confused as Morgana began to stretch firstly and shrugging her shoulder blades with her wings gently moving as well, and her tail swishing back and forth in hinted excitement as minutes later, Morgana and both fairies winced as Cassie and Chipana smacked into each other and fell into the ground on their backs, and Sunny eating some berries he brought with him, chuckled as Morgana landed with a few tripping motions onto her feet and headed over to her two girls to see they were ok, but with slight bruises of sorts to their heads.
"I think that's enough for today," Dawn suggested as Marianne agreed with her little sister, and they went from the pond, to the elf city called Wemberlock and that town was named after the founder of course, and made the two fairies and Sunny jaw drop in being shocked at how much Morgana and also Chipana could gulp the food down with ease, and Cassie shrugged with her wooden cup of blueberry juice, and were glad about the finances of the large food bill being paid for by the Fairy Kingdom, "If they tend to exercise and stuff, I was told it was normal for them to eat that much food due to Chipana's and Mary's bodies growing and depleted powers, which I only eat as much as I can handle, thankfully."
"So is that one of the side effects for Morg- I mean, Mary's race?" Marianne decided to ask with her trying to hide at being irked by her sister winking at a random male fairy who passed by, and Sunny seeing that and was awkwardly sipping his own strawberry juice, and Cassie nodded with a fond yet amused smile, "Somewhat. All I know from the lessons from Teach, is that her race can also consume energy and blood when desperately enough, mainly her type as the last Royal Chaosarinian… Which I know she may have done in a previous adventure by mentioning it."
That got Marianne to see something new in Morgana before they all ducked as she let out a sneeze, and saw the bouncing flame ball easily bounced and winced at a mile or so from their place, as a cart salesman who sold chopped dried leaves for sewing, yelled about them being on fire.
"And the chaotic sneezes she does too," Cassie sweat dropped after that happened with Dawn being the one to pay for the food bill as they were soon out in the flower meadow on foot this time, and blinked at seeing a flower bloom into a rare zebra rose with blue pollen as Sunny stated in being perplexed, "I didn't know that type of rose can grow here…" and Morgana beamed with her two girls deadpanned equally at her actions of inspecting the flower, by Marianne's wary but obvious question, "She's a gardener too, isn't she?"
"Yes, and let's say we don't want to anger her flower servants she grew again," Chipana said with Cassie making her trip and soon chased on foot around the flower and Morgana, and making the elf and two fairies only to shake their head at their youth, and saw how late it was with Morgana causing her girls to trip on purpose to stop their chase-running, and went back to the fairy castle while dropping Sunny back at his home, and didn't see a shadowy mist fully enveloped over that flower as it fully took it and fled.
A few weeks later, on the day of Marianne's and Roland's Wedding:
Morgana was flying with Marianne as she wanted to help her make her boutonniere for her future husband, and she was happy for tomorrow for her, as like her, her godfather, and her two girls, became close friends with the two fairy princesses and the king, alongside Sunny and a few others, despite being told by Sarah by any means of their adventure, only three days would have passed back home.
Chipana and Cassie managed to down flying without wings easily, from earning that they gained some type of energy that they would look into, to fly from and a confession from Valefor via a translator from Morgana, that she merely unlocked their potential as flyers and the sealed and still growing energy they developed, alongside Morgana's when she asked to make her flying movements with her wings more graceful now.
That and they got to meet with Morgana's other Aeons and didn't see some looks at particular individuals or those hidden in the crowds during that time at her in full interest, and one scowling at her with an idea, within the elf city.
Sirius was currently with the king, and both Chipana and Cassie were with Dawn out of reluctance, that is, of trying dresses on back in her chambers, and Morgana kept having an unusual feeling of sorts of something bad was going to happen, but couldn't explain as to what it was.
Morgana shook her head as she greeted some other fairies as Marianne ducked into a yellow flower with large pack of dragonflies zooming past them, making both girls chuckle with a small gasp at easily swirling them gently as the female fairy had a petal piece from the flower, and they took off again.
As Marianne plucked a petal from a daisy that had a ladybug about the size of a chihuahua on the pollen to have a snack, and Morgana making it warble in thanks of feeding it a few berries she brought and quickly catching up with her friend, began to sing mainly to herself.
Marianne: "Wise~ men~ say~, only fools~, only~ fools rush in!"
Marianne gasped at spotting something else to add to make her decoration for Roland with Morgana adding her piece to the collection of which she got a quick and grateful thanks from the female fairy, and kept singing in happiness.
Marianne: "But I~ can't~ help falling~ in love with~ you~! Shall~ I~ say, would it be~, would it be a sin~!"
Marianne and Morgana apologized to Tim the turtle by bumping into him as the Young Chaosarinian was happy for her, but still couldn't fight the same feeling from when she woke up and random times of that bad feeling occuring, and followed her friend as she kept singing to herself in glee.
Marianne: "That I~ can't~ help~, falling~ in love~ with~ you!"
Marianne sighed deeply with a giggle at thinking about tomorrow and didn't see Morgana tried to stop her yet she went into the area past her kingdom's limit to the other side, The Dark Forest.
"Oh, what?" Marianne states to herself as she flew further in without seeing Morgana right behind her, and gasped before feeling something fall on top of her head as Morgana gently flapped next to her at what type of petal it was, "Primroses…" and it was at this point they see their versions of goblins in this realm, cutting the tops of primrose flowers as Morgana took the petal and stashed it into her Hammerspace as Marianne began to apologize.
Morgana was soon trying to lead them out, "Oh, no. I didn't mean-" they growled at her menacingly with the duo avoiding the few flower heads falling around them and getting temporarily caught by a few brutes, and the female fairy screaming a bit before stunning the Goblins of the Dark Forest at kicking Bruce on the stomach, and taking Marianne out of the forest in haste.
Thunder rumbled behind them in the woods with another stray petal falling onto a tree root they passed by as two goblins landed, by the names of Stuff and Thang.
"Were they trying to get a primrose petal?" Thang questions Stuff who shrugged and told him then, seeing this was important, "We better tell him!" And Thang left with his partner as Stuff told him firmly as they ran back to the Dark Castle, "Let me handle it. I'll tell him." And Thang agreed on that.
After how fast they ran it was mere minutes later they came to the castle and entered through the skull of a dead and formerly powerful magical creature to get into the log-based swamp that housed the Dark Castle itself, with bats flying past them and then also having to step over some spiders as well to get to the throne room, where their ruler sat down in deep thoughts.
"Sire! News from the border!" Stuff yelled to their ruler who glanced and sat up a bit from his throne as Stuff made Thang blink in surprise by the goblin stating to him in whisper, "You tell him," "What?!" Thang whispered quickly back before being nervous, seeing they had their ruler's full attention, "A fairy flew into our forest with this weird reptilian girl-" "What?!" Their ruler stated firmly at Thang as the goblin resumed, shrinking by the intimidation their ruler gave off, "And they almost took a primrose."
"A primrose?!" The ruler states as he purposely slammed the end of his weapon staff onto the stone groin to make the two goblins whimper to themselves with a few steps back at watching as he stood there in the darkness of the room for a moment, and admits to them in ire and hate, "I hate this time of year… Spring."
The ruler firmly gazed at the two wary goblins in firm orders while also explaining with using his weapon as part of it when he slammed it again onto the ground once more, and also gesturing with a vast shadow of sorts behind the goblins as well from his silhouette and more use of his staff, "Send more to cut down every primrose on the borders, no matter how long it takes. No primroses, no potions. No potion, no love. Because love is dangerous. It weakens, it rots. It destroys order. And without order, what is left?" His wings fluttered with him wincing at the mere thought and didn't see both goblins gulp to themselves, "Chaos."
He then revealed himself fully into the light of the room, which he seems to be the most fairy-like anatomically then all the other goblins.
The ruler himself wears no clothes, and his body is covered in an armor-like exoskeleton resembling decaying leaves and bark. His limbs are thin, matching the rest of his body, making him the tallest humanoid-based individual within the Dark Forest Kingdom. He possesses ears, a chin, and a nose, matching his angular anatomy. He has four matching dragonfly-like wings on his back with various tears and imperfections that do not seem to impede his ability to fly.
"Destroy the primroses! Or I will destroy you." The ruler told them firmly as they both run from the room in deep pants while he sat back down, and began to think to himself once again while also leaning on his weapon before he stilled, and sighed at seeing someone enter the room, and bluntly stated in a softer but firm greeting, from hearing litter patter of tiny feet, "What is it, Nina?"
The little hybrid fairy that's around a few years younger then Morgana's age, wore a stitched dress that was beige in color and she had small yet decently sized demonic yet clearly fairy-based wings that had a fiery design on the webbings and succubi clawed fingers alongside feet like a padded velociraptors with both having gray ivory claws, and cute fangs showing from the top of her lips, with oddly sounding like Maia Mitchell and she even has her face at said age, in a doppelganger sense, with flowing dark brown hair with natural blending of black highlights on the left side, and demonic yet crystal-blue eyes with green rims around her pupils and having natural black sclera, and lastly to mention, her having a lizard tail similar to Morgana's as well.
This is Nina Oakflight, and the ruler's half-sister from their house's ex-ruling father before his exiled demise of him and his little half-sister's mother by something not known to anyone with cheating on his mother being part of it, which Nina has her mother's last name to mention, but the small part of the land still left traces of shadowy flames from her former home within the outer parts of Darktale Isle, and Nina is currently still the ward of the castle as well, for over a year, and his own mother didn't mind her as she always wanted a daughter too.
"Mama says that food is nearly done, as we having rodent meatball surprise," Nina tells him softly to get him to nod at her before seeing her wings shivering and her body jerking a few times alongside her tail, all at once as he asked her, since he can be himself of sorts around her or his mother when no one else was around, "Your in pain once again?"
Seeing red tears that have begun slowly falling down her face from her eyes as a wordless answer, he sighed as he got up and made her blink at wiping them away, and only from her he let out a small smile as he stated while grabbing her left hand, and they headed to their destination, "Let's go see the healer before going to eat, for the medicine."
Back with both Marianne and Morgana, they made it further back into the Fairy Kingdom and seeing her female fairy friend's state was a slight mess, unlike her, as Marianne whimpered a few times to try and compose herself.
It was then they spotted a person Morgana didn't let her ire be seen by her friend as she declared with a hand to her heart, catching his attention on the ground, "Roland! Oh, thank goodness!"
The male fairy was on his squirrel-like steed named Chipper, which he declared a 'Whoa' to her before telling her in being perplexed, and halting Chipper to stay, at the same time, "Aren't you supposed to be getting ready for our wedding?"
"I will. I am!" Marianne stated while sheepishly rubbing the back of her messed-up hair with her right hand before glancing at her decoration and tells him then to intrigue the male fairy, and Morgana deciding to pet Chipper's left side gently and shaking her head as Morgana doesn't understand what her friend say in Roland, "Oh, wait! I have something for you!" Marianne began to fly to him.
"For me? Why, aren't you the sweetest…" he was soon confused as Marianne hid behind some leaves of the blueberries near them, and Morgana caught two as she began to snack lightly on one while also giving Chipper the other. Roland, however with an eye roll, got off his steed and went over while question-stating the female fairy, "Marianne? You're in a plant."
"You can't look at me! I forgot. Bad luck on our wedding day," Marianne tells Roland with him and Morgana seeing her wings and feet behind the plant at least, and chuckles for a few seconds and tells her, "Well, too bad you can't see me. My hair is doing that thing we both love-" he made Morgana glare at him for slightly scaring her and Chipper as the squirrel scratched the stick from the Dark Forest away as he declared to her in surprise and worry, "Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Were you both in the Dark Forest?" As he said the last few words, he was behind the leaves the female fairy was.
"No! Maybe… Yes?" Marianne tried to deny Roland before eventually admitting to making her swerve to the other side as he went to the other side of the large leaf, and expressing while ignoring her words of 'Don't look' to him, "You could've been killed! Both of you!"
"Or worse, seriously disfigured." He tells her after thinking for a moment as they swerved to the other way fully with not seeing Morgana catching another berry and eating it from their movements, and causing several to fall as she and Chipper simply began to watch the drama unfold, but the child did hide a frown at his words as she guessed all he sees is outward beauty, and not the beauty from within as she fully learned that from her big sister and Adam, but still thinks about herself differently though.
"Hey! I can take care of myself," Marianne tells Roland as she hid on top of the large leaf of the same plant that's able support her body weight and peeked at the blonde male fairy, as Roland reminded her then, "That is no place for a princess." He then makes her zoom further to the same plant to try and hide from him as she became slightly smug, as she reached and managed to grab his sword, "Oh, yeah? How about a princess that can do this?"
"Marianne, don't play with…" Roland began to caution her as she was grunting and doing feeble swings with his weapon to make Morgana to shake her head as those were formerly her moves until she was getting a bit better in swordplay, but managed to slice a leaf off the plant to make him chuckle at being impressed, "Who's the big girl? You got a sword. Yep." Marianne soon fumbles as Roland expertly manages to let his weapon fall into its sheath with ease on his left hip as her back was soon on the next leaf below it, and still hiding from him.
"Yeah, but I don't own a sword," Marianne admits shyly at the blonde fairy and telling him of her dream, to which Morgana thought it was thoughtful at least, especially since she heard it a few times when she was with her girls and it was her watching them, "Because when I rule this kingdom," she flew around before landing on the same leaf as she explained still, "I'll go to that Dark Forest to talk to them. To make it so, at long last, we're not scared anymore." Morgana lightly glared at Roland's mocking words of saying, so sweet, but Marianne continues to tell him things at her spot, "And then we can all go anywhere we want to have fun, to see things, to have adventures!"
"I'll be your adventure," Roland tells her as they grab hands from her left to his right as she gently sighed at her dream and her other hand holding his decoration, "Come on Marianne, my future queen."
"Aw… My future king," she gently tells him, oddly imagining them as good rulers, "Yeah… King. I'll have an army," at those words he did grab his sword to swing gently a bit with Marianne agreeing with a few nods at her spot as she still held his hand, "Yeah…" she blinked and questioned him, "Wait, what?"
"Um…" he began to quickly make up an excuse, which Marianne bought with Morgana shaking her head again, "To protect the Fairy Kingdom, and you, my little buttercup."
"Now, go get yourself all prettified," he began to tell her as he swirled his hair in a fancy way Morgana saw Marianne secretly sigh from dreamily, "Today has got to be perfect." He then went over and ignored the slight blueberry stains he knew his pet can easily lick clean from the rims of the squirrel's maw, and Morgana gave a few quick pets before backing away as Chipper neighed with raising himself a bit before taking off with Roland, "Chipper! Let's ride!"
Marianne sighed as she watched Roland go, and saw Morgana's look aimed at her with being amused at eating more blueberries before she jumped from Dawn showing up with Chipana and Cassie, as the duo caught the large blueberries from Morgana and began eating them, "Marianne! Remember the wedding?"
"I know," Marianne groaned out to her little sister who began complaining about her state of dress and making the elder sister roll her eyes with seeing the little helpers assigned to them years ago began to try and clean her up as well, and eventually noticed the boutonniere Morgana had small help of making with the brunette female fairy being the man, "Ugh! What's that?!"
"A boutonniere," Marianne tells her as it looked disgusting a bit with what was traditional for their royalty to make their own versions or those offered willingly, "Oh! I forgot to give this to Roland." She tells Dawn at the end of her words, which she shook her head in disagreement as Morgana and her two girls floated/flapped to them as the blonde female fairy pointed at the item in question, "You can't give him that."
"Why not?" Marianne questions her little sister before informing her as if it was normal for themselves or something, and Morgana didn't see the facepalm of both her girls at not understanding it, "Uh, he's too good-looking?"
"Yeah," Marianne sighed out dreamily with then both sighing and the girls following the two sisters and helpers back to the castle, with seeing Dawn gave the item to the helpers, who looked disgusted, and saw how greatful the elder sister was, as they caught up to them from them stopping mid-way by asking her a worrying question, "Dawn! Do you think Roland loves me as much as I love him?"
"Oh, Marianne," Dawn tells her elder sister in a way she thought was cute but also was concerned and understanding for her, and went up to Marianne and told her pointedly, "How could he not love you? You're so totally loveable!" The three younger girls blinked a few times at how Dawn pronounced it though as if she was unsure herself, as Marianne asked assuringly, "Really?"
"I wish you could see how you look." Dawn tells her as they were at her open bed chambers' windows and slipped in to make Marianne smile before all five girls turned to the helpers with a much better and decent looking boutonniere as they sang as one mainly to the eldest.
All three helpers: "Oh~, you're looking crazy in love! He's got you looking crazy in love! Yeah~, you're looking crazy in love! Looking so crazy, got you looking so crazy in love~!"
Marianne gasped to herself at seeing how well made it was, "It's perfect," and Dawn tells her from getting a brush to start combing her hair with Morgana having that feeling once again, "You're welcome!"
"I want to give this to him now!" Marianne states allowed to make her sister drop her brush and tried to reason with her as she took after during half her words, "Isn't it bad luck if he sees you…" she was out of sight and sighed to herself, and the helpers going 'Oh no', "Uh-oh."
Morgana was about to go fetch Marianne before she and both Cassie and Chipana blinked, and glanced down to see Sirius calling them from below as if he had something important to say, "Girls, get down here!"
Dawn waved them off with them giving reassured smiles at the blonde female fairy as they flew and glided down to him with Sirius shaking his head at still not believing the other two can fly without wings, and made Morgana gasp alongside them at seeing he has an old sealed scroll.
"Remember what you told me about the Aeons and how many you looked into? Well, this scroll is a slight direction to a new one you have yet to acquire, Pup." Sirius told her as she gently took it, and before she could open it and remove the seal they all paused with glancing upwards at seeing immediately Marianne crying and heading to her room, through her window.
Seeing her look of concern, Sirius nodded in understanding as he nabbed both Cassie and Chipana's shirt collars with ease and smirked at his goddaughter, as she did take off quickly with storing the scroll for later and went into the castle from the ground entrance, "You go ahead and check on your friend, Pup, as I got things to discuss with these two girls here."
Morgana was actually lost for close to thirty or so minutes with eventually bumping into the swordsmith that gave her the custom ordered blade for the wedding, and managed to find her friend's room by having a guard taking and leaving her there in a secluded but obvious spot, and seeing Dawn outside Marianne's bedroom doors as she opened them, as the blonde knocked first, and and asked in concern, "Marianne?"
Inside, Marianne got off her hanging-pearl-chained rose bed and saw her little sister gazing at her in concern with the helpers not knowing what to do at this moment as she rubbed her eyes and responded to her little sister's name softly, "Dawn."
"What happened?" Dawn asked in both worry and concern over her eldest sister as she came over to the door, "I… I don't want to talk about it," was all Marianne tells her little sister softly to which at her spot, Morgana could easily hear heartbreak and sadness in her friend's voice.
Dawn sighed while giving her a look to easily see her elder sister's body language that it might be true, "Not even to me?"
"I can't," Marianne tells her with Dawn and from what Morgana could see then, the elder sister held unshed tears as she apologized while closing the door, and ignored her sister telling her to wait, "I'm sorry… Tell Dad, the wedding's off."
Dawn was stunned and shocked all at once as she declared to herself, "The wedding's off?" She does turn to eventually see Morgana and debates internally with motioning to the Young Chaosarinian. If she doesn't want to speak to me, maybe she can talk to her.
Morgana blinked unsurely with Dawn seeing the wrapped gift of sorts and didn't mind it, and asked her out of concern for her sister, "Can you please go see what is wrong with her and why she doesn't want to marry Roland anymore? I never seen her act this way at all before, and it worries me the most."
"I-I guess I can maybe see what's wrong," Morgana tells her to get a quick hug from Dawn in gratitude as she tells her in slight relief, "Thank you, Mary. I just hope she can open up more to you then me right now, as I have to go tell Dad the unexpected news." Morgana nodded as she watched Dawn fly off in speed and shook her head at not at least trying to run, and went over to the double doors and hesitated but knocked three times, and waited.
It was a few moments after as inside the room, Marianne thought it was her little sister and told who she thought it was rudely while emotionally drained of sorts and wiping her eyes, sitting on the floor and leaning on her dresser, "Go away Dawn! I told you I can't tell you." She blinked a few times at who it was, "Sorry, but I'm not Dawn, Mei. It's me: Mary."
Marianne hid a small laugh at recalling the nickname Morgana gave her with only three days of being here, as they were all allowed to call her by her own nickname out of sheer trust, and she debated on letting her in or not, and from easily hearing her friend's feet, decided.
Marianne got up with slight difficulty but managed to walk over to the door and opened it, and noticed the wrapped gift of sorts from within Morgana's hands as she came into her room, and made things awkward to the both of them as they sat on her bed.
It was tense yet pure silence as Morgana guessed she didn't want to talk about things, made Marianne blink as the Potter Heiress placed the wrapped gift she carried onto the brunette female fairy's lap gently as she began to explain about it, and watched as Marianne began to reluctantly yet gently unwrap it from seeing the child's expectant face, "I know this was supposed to be for your wedding, but I figured maybe you would want it now more than ever, as it's something I had made for you."
Marianne was truly stunned and mixed with sadness still at knowing it was supposed to be a wedding gift, but awed at the beauty of it as she stood up and held it up to the light, "I know you always wanted a sword for your own to maybe try and learn from all the mentions when you watched the guard practice, and that's what I managed to commissioned with my own materials from my hammerspace I nabbed from my vault back home, from my last visit to the bank before going home to Adam's Castle, mixed with the metals from your home to make two homes within a single blade."
The fairy princess was holding onto a simple longsword made out of silver and other foreign metals as it was perfectly combined as one with a leather-wrapped hilt, the only real embellishment being raised etchings of a heart and curly-ques across the flat of the crossguard, base of the blade, and the round pommel. There were also traces of Latin on the blade itself that went from the center-bottom to top, in very tiny and perfectly etched Latin letters.
"It's… It's beautiful Mary, but," Marianne tried handing the blade back, "But I can't accept it as I don't even know how to use a sword and never practiced."
Morgana only shook her head as she placed it on her friend's bed and firmly yet gently told her with eyes stating it's not an option before switching to mixed glee and seriousness, and being suggesting, "I made it for you, and it's special but I was only told after you name her from the commissioner, the weapon would always be yours and pass down to your line. And if you don't know how to use it, learn to." Marianne held soft eyes at Morgana at this kind gesture before holding back a sad laugh at her trying to make a joke then, and could easily see it within her mind, "Well, you could learn to use it and then show the bloody blonde what he lost by messing with you."
"It's obvious, huh?" Marianne tells her to which Morgana shrugged and blinked back her stunned surprise by her admission with a head rub as she explained, "I kinda figured that guy was not trustworthy as he felt off somehow, and was lying most of the time anyways. I was actually waiting to see if the wool would go over your eyes to reveal his true side, as even Chipper told me that he was dating someone else during your relationship." Marianne was about to say something, blinked, and crossed her arms with a questionable look while adjusting the weapon to not poke her, "Chipper told you? How?"
"Did I forget to mention the few abilities I had, that animal speech was one of them?" Morgana hesitated but told her friend to only make Marianne shake her head in understanding as she didn't even ask what the child could do, despite knowing about her Hammerspace, having magic of the chaotic variety and partial control, and who her titles were.
"Well, at least you decided to let me find out before anything worse occurred," Marianne agreed with her to see the relief show on the Young Chaosarinian's face before seeing she got an idea, "Well, how about we go start your sword training right now then?" Morgana suggested with the helpers actually agreeing with the child by this.
Marianne blinked a few times before a small smile showed on her face, and stated to Morgana as she reluctantly nodded by the vow the brunette female fairy told herself within her words, "Alright, but I think I'll never fall in love again with another person after the blonde prick."
The duo soon came to a clearing that was decent enough to spar at, and Marianne nearly faltered in her steps at seeing Morgana summon Xal'atath to which, the weapon only rolled her single eye at the fairy at this before extending to what both her and the Potter Heiress dubbed as her blade mode, and Morgana began to instruct Marianne for the next few hours or so with them eventually being discovered by Dawn, Sunny, Cassie, and Chipana, and with them beholding both Marianne and Morgana as the two were now neck-to-neck against both their weapons before dispersing away from each other, as both of them were panting in place.
Marianne was rather surprised by hearing clapping from both Sunny and her little sister to hide her tinting by the unexpected phrase as Morgana leaned on Xal'atath, who didn't mind this time as the soil was gentle enough yet sturdy to her tastes.
"That was impressive, before long like my Sensei Claudia and a few others say, you're a natural and would be able to master your sword in no time." Morgana phrased her friend Marianne with her sheathing her weapon she has yet to name, as the others came over and congratulated her- "Oh? How touching it is to see the Chosen Child going from a student, to teacher, at this point and time," an unexpected voice said as they all sharply looked to make Morgana see a fully blacked cloaked person wearing a bone-white snake designed mask to a king cobra, and appeared to be a male by physique alone.
Everyone could sense that he wasn't normal though, and putting up a brave front, Marianne only made the person chuckle with his gloved hands behind his back in a way he wasn't afraid or anything of them, as she unsheathed her weapon and pointed it at his direction with narrowed eyes, "Whoever you are, you have no business being here… Leave!"
"Oh? Leave before I do what was ordered of me? For the seven, for shame as a fair maiden like you can easily threaten a scared cat and mouse, then a raging bull or tiger," the man told her off to anger not only her, but the others with Morgana having that dread feeling once again but way worse, as she saw something he grabbed from his left sleeve as he continued to speak, undeterred, "And I would rather test my concoction given on a particular beast, but I can make an exception."
He tossed what appeared to be a pitch-black orb resembling a crystal bomb as well, at Marianne before she was stunned as Morgana tossed it back by deflecting it with her tail and they were all wary of seeing when it exploded from actual impact, it turned a random flower it struck entirely to porcelain stone.
"Mei, we need to get out of here, as he's out of our league," Morgana tells her as she felt how much of that was mixed with his power, making Marianne and the others gaze at the Young Chaosarinian in utter disbelief to which he chuckled at knowing that she was the only one who could detect it, "But we can't just let that guy-" Morgana dodged another one of those crystal bombs as it hit a passing yet speeding dragonfly that turned it into stone as well, but white marble.
"I'm afraid that isn't possible, as I already trapped this area to cause heart failure if you leave this clearing without even letting me have some venom-tastic fun," he tells them all in a way they shivered from as they could easily imagine the insane smile the man probably had under the mask itself by this outcome, "So we will play a little game… If you win, you all won't be turned to stone. But if I win, I get to turn you to stone and take things up another level."
Morgana was wary about this as she figured by his gaze to her, he was targeting her directly and made her give out an irritated sigh with her weapon wordlessly agreeing, and startled the others at this as they were now besides Marianne, "What do I have to do to prevent this?"
"Or it's really simple… Just dodge the poisoned arrows for five minutes!" He tells them all as they glanced up from him pointing upwards as a poisoned-like design of vortexes closer to ten revealed itself behind him, and within moments began to shoot random arrows and soon all six of them were dodging arrows with seeing them vanish into a dark mist after hitting the ground each time.
With ten seconds to spare and with Morgana shielding them and not her, he appeared to be pouting as time soon came up but eventually grinned with cruelty under his mask at watching Morgana yelping as one hit her, and laughed at wording to them along with seeing as soon as she took it out, she felt weak and dizzy to the point Xal'atath went back into her. "Seems time was up yet the poor little lizard got hit by one of my petrified arrows… Which by the way is very costly to make," he tells them in unexpected glee as sure enough, Morgana's right arm was slowly becoming stone or closer to black marble in color to have them panicked over this, as they went over to her collapsed form.
"Cure her, you prick!" Cassie exclaimed to him with them frozen as another vortex appeared with revealing thousands of those arrows as he darkly told them with glowing amber eyes, "I think not as that girlie needs to have a time out, as we're still searching for whatever the key artifact is, and what can be done for both parties, as after all… The Shadowed Ones are no mere group you want to mess around with, and she would spoil things… To which point," without warning he shot both Chipana and Cassie to which it was speeding up faster for them, and within moments of horror, they were black marble statues.
Morgana was enraged at this but tripped over herself as he vanished alongside the vortexes, as Marianne saw the process was speeding up with going within seconds from the child being angry at the man at harming her girls, and moved her out of the way and got shot again but with a tainted arrow to her heart, to their horror… For them to still and turn to see that Death arrived with a present, for only to place it back later for now and come over to them.
She managed to touch Morgana's face with regret at not arriving sooner, but she had to deal with the lost souls that were closer to thousands that got taken and scattered by a foolish mistake, from someone stealing and not placing them to rest. That, and the trio were informed from a mere question about how many girls Morgana was paired with, to say, this entity was a shock though, but they were wary of much the same within her presence.
Once Death was done muttering a spell, Morgana did let out a tear before she was fully encased into a marble statue and sighed as she got up, and told the trio while gesturing and telling them as they only heard tales of her while little children, and didn't truly expect her to exist at all, "They are to be placed in a safe and secluded part of your castle as Sirius will be angered but will have to wait here, as that foolish shadow of a snake, made me utter a spell that will free them… But I don't know how long of a wait it will be," and she gazed at the two princesses more closely before letting out a self-humored chuckle to make them blink owlishly at her, and with Sunny doing the same while scratching his chin, "Oh? So you're her kids then? Well… You both grew into fine young woman fairies in your right, but I think I might find her and more, from sensing things about to play later on in your lives…. Cya!" She vanished while making them cough from the darkness-like smoke she let out.
They did blink at seeing she managed to adjust the three girls into a warrior's pose at least with each of them holding their birthstones via a crystal orb with their names etched in.
Marianne gazed at her blade with her lightly but firmly gripping it, and stated to her sister and friend with trying to hold back her tears as despite the short time, she saw they were wordlessly agreeing with her, they were family and friends all the same, and with Sunny warily grabbing the feathered tip of a surviving arrow as she firmly stated, "Sunny, I need you to go back to the castle with Dawn and tell them what happened and see if the healers could try and make an antidote in case this happens again."
"What about you?" Dawn asked her as Sunny took off in sprinting speed at seeing Marianne gazed at her blade and recalled the small promise she made to Morgana while they spared, and told her softly to make Dawn blink at this, "I'm going to practice a few more hours and then come back home and hopefully, the guards can help us getting the girls back to the castle and maybe to the inside courtyard for them."
Dawn reluctantly nodded as Marianne hid the urge to wince as her little sister told her gently in understanding, "Don't overdo it though, as I'm sure you can master your sword before you know it." She then took off and headed back to the castle.
Marianne stilled before seeing a cloaked person who appeared to be female, silently gazed at her and the three black marble versions of Morgana, Chipana, and Cassie and eventually tossed her a small bag and quickly vanished into an ozone-based cloud of sorts that disapparated to nothing, after a minute, and blinked at seeing what was inside as she pocketed the bag then, and started to solo-spar with herself.
With the one man, he was being chewed out in a vast and empty void of darkness with being bruised and battered by another who wore an Oxen-based white mask while being close to fourteen feet tall, and with him firmly telling the person, Snake, "The Master was rather not pleased of you doing that to the child and the two girls, as he wanted a full confrontation, not more trickery as to what you have done! Without those three moving around, we are not able to find the key artifact that can be used."
"How the hell was I supposed to know that? All I was told was to test them and I did, my way!" Snake yelled at the man before he was sent a few feet away from him, as he firmly ordered Snake, "Indeed, but not what The Master wanted you to do. It would seem I will have to request to do so myself and test her, while you go find the one item that I was tasked with."
Snake shivered before telling him then, "Fine by me as I might have a lead already as to where it was, so go ahead, Bull, and see in a few days their true time, as to why I did what needed to be done." Snake vanished to make Bull sigh, and stills before glancing to see Dragon was there, "You overdid it again." Was all she told him to which he just gave her a nod.
It was a few moments of silence before he responded softly, "So how was your mission? You found out who has light in their hearts?"
"That and my other mission The Master gave me. I have to thank you for dealing with the imbecile that he is, and I'm glad you decided to take over as you are going to be testing her… Will probably bring better results and information to use at a later date, as our seer, Dog, foreseen that the child's many girls are going to end up in later years, not in a favorable position to weaken her at a specific point. Not sure when or where, but it will happen."
Bull only gave an understanding nod at knowing what she meant, "But if she was enraged, will that be enough power?"
"Without a doubt as he wants her to grow more in power for a reason, and one other person as well as the sealed entity is a mere test, compared to what will await to test that child as even though I am of service, I still have to watch over her when able." Dragon states with removing her mask temporarily to see that she resembled to a more attractive version of James Potter, but with lime-green slitted and draconian eyes alongside having short ebony-black hair to mistake her for the actress or even as an exact doppelgänger, to Zoey Deutch within her early twenties, "I only recently found out she was my magical-blood adopted baby brother's child, thanks to both Rat and Tiger's slip-up within earshot, after all."
"Indeed, you did mentioned that you were forcibly forgotten by both James and your kin by the deal you made to save his and their life, via The Master, as a ultimate price to save their lives from a purposeful attack from a Altered Dark Lord, and more invoked without your knowing," Bull agreed to her words.
Dragon hesitated but placed her mask back on her face with haunting eyes of that time, and shook her head and told him to which he paused as he was going to fetch things before choosing when on testing Morgana, "I don't expect you to go easy on her, but at least make sure she lives, Bull. I plan to when the opportunity comes, to aid her further as The Master no longer has a hold of me anymore, and to the others, from what I found out as most simply serve him regardless."
Bull nodded inwardly, being surprised by this, but left it at bay as he went into a vortex and it closed behind him just as Dragon did the same for herself.
A few years later, around the start of Spring, near the Grotto of The Lizard:
Marianne sighed as she called out to her sister once again and knowing how more boy-crazed she was then in the last few years, and briefly recalled how Sirius took to things with eventually settling down to their surprise, with their former female leading guard captain and with being the last few of her kind as a Dark Fairy: Saira Shadowvale, and even married her as well.
She was grateful of the elves polishing Morgana and the other two girls at times so mold and whatever wouldn't grow on their marbled bodies, which she would secretly talk to them at times if her nerves and stress, to which most of the time over the last few years, King Dagda was insisting she finds a guy at some point.
She also mastered her sword training and even gave her weapon a name to honor her friends, called Heartsbane, for other reasons as well.
"Dawn! Where are you?!" Marianne yells for her little sister as near the cave, Dawn groans at this as she was with Sunny, and hidden under the dandelion puffs by telling her assuredly, "The coast is clear!" Sunny sighed dreamily as he watched Dawn grab one, and blew the seeds off it easily before gently placing the stalk onto the ground and nearly suffocated as the seeds flew past him and went into his face and coughing, "Shush! She'll hear you!"
"Whatever happened that wedding day and with Mary, must have been really bad," Dawn began as Sunny understood her on that very same day a few years ago, and agreed, "Yeah, bad- Bleh!" He coughed up a seed that floated casually away from him. "Because now she's always hovering, watching, worrying. What's she trying to protect me from?"
"You can take care of yourself," Sunny agreed as she nodded at him for that, "Yeah. So…" she crossed her arms behind her back and gently swayed with her wings moving a bit, "Spring ball." "Yeah." "My first dance." "Yeah?" "What's your plan?" Dawn asked him and he agreed with her.
"I made it so when the music starts," he began to explain his idea as she listened, and fingered quotes some words to her, "You'll 'Accidently' bump into Hadrian," and she seemed excited over this and hugged him to which he was rather surprised but accepted it as she told him in happiness, "Oh! Today is gonna be exciting!" He hugged her while closing his eyes, "Mmm… It already is."
She backed up after quickly relaxing and touching his shoulders, "Whoa, whoa, whoa!" "What?" "Hadrian?" She asked him as she accidentally made him fall off the rock as he nodded and told her then with a smile, and didn't see her finger-tapping her chin in thought, "Yeah, Hadrian. The guy with great, red, wavy hair." He also mentioned that as well to his head and hand gestures.
"No, no, no. I don't have a crush on him. I really like Nathan," Dawn tells him dreamily to which he quickly nodded while coming up with a new plan, "Olay. Gotta find Hadrian, tell Hadrian to stand in a new place, find Nathan and tell him to stand in the old place-" "What if he doesn't like me?" She interrupted him as he went, and told her with a few hand waves to get her attention and stated it in conviction, "Snap out of it! Listen. Like I always say…" he began with trying to cheer her up, as he began to sing.
Sunny: "Don't worry~, about a thing! 'Cause every little thing~ is gonna be alright! Don't you worry~ bout a thing!"
Dawn laughed as he began to dance with her as she sang with him, as well.
Dawn: "About a thing!"
Both (Together at same time): "'Cause every little thing, is gonna be alright!"
"All right!" Dawn agreed as she saw Sunny heading to the cave but didn't mind it as he and she sang still.
Sunny: "Woke up this morning~…"
Both (Together at same time): "Smiled at the rising~ sun! Three little birds. Pitch by my doorstep! Singin' sweet songs of melodies pure and true~! Sayin' this is my message to you~!"
Sunny: "Oh, don't worry! About a thing!"
It was then Dawn spotted movement within the cave, and tried to get his attention warily, and growing nervous, "Sunny-" "Dawn, I'm trying to sing."
Sunny: "'Cause every little thing, is gonna be alright!"
"Sunny!" Dawn stated with a gulp to get him to state a 'What' to her as she pointed at the cave, "Worry!" As she took off and after a few seconds of realizing things for Sunny, a large lizard (same as in the movie) began chasing them.
"Hey! Watch my ears!" He exclaimed to the raging lizard as he was being chased, as within the air and worried at her friend, Dawn shouted mainly to herself, "Help! We've gotta get help!"
On the ground again, the lizard nearly bit Sunny if it wasn't for a few acorns being pelted at it and glaring at Marianne who casually tossed her last remaining acorn while declaring to them, firmly, "You're looking at it."
Over the few years her wardrobe changed as she wore dark purple eyeshadow, dark purple lipstick on her lips, a dark magenta sleeveless tunic with green edges, dark brown straps and a lime green high collar, a brown bandage glove on her right arm, a light green lefty arm-warmer on her left arm, dark purple footed tights, and brown knee-length boots, and with the outfit easily going well to mention again, her large violet and black butterfly wings.
Sunny grunts as he was still running from the lizard as they circled a rock and took off further into the clearing the area had as both Dawn and Marianne fly after them with the elf huffing and puffing in complaint, "Too short to run!" As the lizard was nearing him and ramming into obstacles, he continued, "Too young to die!"
"Whoa, whoa, whoa!" Marianne tells herself aloud as she managed to grab one of the ridges the lizard had on its head to try and stop it, "Marianne! Are you crazy?" Dawn shouts to her elder sister as she hangs onto the lizard's head.
It was then the brunette spotted blueberries as she yelled at the elf, which he hastily did while avoiding being chomped, "Sunny! Go right!" As she let go and flew ahead to the blueberries to pull one of the stalks, Marianne grunted out loud enough for him to do so while running, "Sunny! Duck!" After he spun and fell to the other side to the Dark Forest, the lizard was angered at getting juice in its left eye before roaring at the brunette and cowered by her retaliation back, and took off in a whimpering yet foul mood.
"What am I going to do with you?" Marianne now began to berate her little sister who looked at her in mixed feelings, and began to cry and hugged her, "Sorry. I didn't know what to do."
"Pull your head out of the clouds!" She told her firmly while making sure she was fully seen by gripping her little sister's shoulders, "Clouds full of boys." Here, Dawn looked hesitant and made her elder sister try to hide a groan to herself at this, "I can't help it."
"You just have no idea what's going on around you." Marianne tells her sister firmly before seeing her looking fearful and panicked still, and softens her eyes by telling Dawn gently then, "It's okay. It's okay, it's okay." Seeing her sister not angry with her made Dawn let out a gentle exhale and a small smile like Marianne did, until she blinked at her elder sister at realizing someone was missing, "Where's Sunny?"
With the elf, he shook his head while still dazed, before he was yanked by Marianne and gently tossed near her little sister and exclaimed to him firmly and with reason, "You were in the Dark Forest!"
"I was / He was?" Both Sunny and Dawn stated to her in being surprised as she continued to rant to them, and made them wince at being reminded about her, "Do you want what happened to the Sugar Plum Fairy to happen to you? Locked away forever because she made a love potion from…" they blinked at seeing a specific petal falling slowly onto the ground and noticed the flowers around them at last, "Primroses! We have to get out of here now!"
While Sunny and Dawn did as suggested, Marianne had a flashback a few years ago as she muttered to herself, "That place…" images of the goblins and how horrifying the forest was years before flashed before her eyes- She blinked at her name being questioned in concern by her little sister, with Dawn waving her hand in front of her face and trying to hide at being startled with a slight gasping yelp, and reminded her then as it was still early morning, "We're going to be late at getting around for the Spring Ball!"
Dawn blinked as Marianne gently shook her by stating with an eye twitch, "You drive me crazy!" Before gently kissing her on the forehead and dropping the petal as the two sisters took off, with the brunette stating they had to get out of there and with Dawn holding back on screaming and avoiding the petal, yet Sunny picked it up and placed it under a tree root and ran after his two friends.
It was close to an hour later that they were heading back home after dropping Sunny off in the Elf Village, that Marianne groaned at hearing her little sister humming gleefully to herself and even stated in disbelief to this, "So that's how you react to a near-death experience?" Dawn only hummed loudly to get Marianne to groan this time and flew back a bit, "What?"
"You both were nearly killed." Marianne reminded her little sister as she shrugged it off as if it wasn't that bad, "You make such a big deal out of everything…" she stopped and gasped in shock as she touched her hair from seeing her reflection from the water, "Whoa! I'm a total mess!" She then caught up to her elder sister as she scoffed at the idea, "We have to prepare and get ready for the ball."
"Ha! No, you've gotta get ready for the ball," Marianne told her off with Dawn dusting off some dust that was on her dress before noticing her elder sister's clothes, "Uh, you're going like that?" Marianne gazed at herself as her sister finished her words to make the elder of the two, to roll her eyes from, "Good luck being asked to the dance."
"I'm not dancing," Marianne pointedly told her little sister as Dawn groaned at this, and the two resumed their flying back home, and told her dreamily to soon amuse the brunette, "I'm going to dance with the most perfect boy."
"And who will that be?" Marianne question-stated yet before Dawn could say anything she resumed speaking, and began posturing in flight with minor poses of the boy names she listed off, "Aaron?" "No." "Benjamin. Charles. Darren!" Dawn sighed out to her in irritation, "No."
Marianne kept listing names off as they soon landed on the air entrance to their home, and were rather confused the further they went in by the rush and hustle as if something happened, before gazing at each other from overhearing things and took off to the inner courtyard in haste, by hearing that the three statues were glowing and cracking.
Once there, they eventually saw that fragments of true black marble stone was on the ground as healers had both Cassie and Chipana on carrying stretchers to go see the healer and with the two still passed out, and soon saw glowing golden cracks spreading on Morgana's prone form.
"I made it!" Sirius stated out of nowhere in deep pants from shifting back to his human look, to briefly amuse the two princesses as more golden cracks quickly showed on Morgana… Before they were blown away as the guards caught them and the king just in time by the vast energy burst that went through everything and even past the Dark Forest, and to several places long forgotten at this point in vortexes within the fairy dimension itself.
Unfortunately, this perked something from one of the gates of a dimensional forgotten tomb that dwelled thousands of leagues away from the fairy kingdom, went back to sleep to bid it's time with moving its gateway to another world for better chances of future things, and with Marianne moving as fast as she could to catch her friend, who looked weak yet healthy while sleeping.
"She seems ok," Marianne assured Sirius to make him sigh with relief before they saw the weird crystal orb she held began to disintegrate and the dusty particles it soon made go directly into her, and thus making Morgana sharply gasp with her deeply breathing a few times with wide eyes and blinked a few times trying to get her eyes to not be bleary, and eventually saw she was being held by Marianne.
She soon weakly glanced to see the king and Dawn was also here, and her godfather was more healthy and a bit more toned while wearing a fancy black outfit similar to the fairy royals, not known to her, and expressed with a raspy voice to half-amuse them in understanding, "Hi."
Ten minutes later, Morgana amused them again as she refused to lay down with Sirius understanding more than they did, and told them in a humored tone with misty eyes of recalling things back then, "Lily and even James were not fans of laying down while sick or hurt, and wanted to get back up and about to do things. So I think she hates hospitals or healing chambers, just like them."
That amused the three royals with them all being perplexed by seeing the healer shake their head before telling their king, "My Lord, it seems like the other two, she is healthy somehow yet she will need to be watched in case she falls or trips."
"Let me guess, she needs fluids or something?" Sirius warily started to get Dagda worried about this to perplex his daughters to make the healer blink, and they didn't notice Morgana trying to bite the healer while they crossed their arms from being out of biting range to make the Young Chaosarinian blink and shake her head, and soon crossed her arms in a cute pout without realizing why she is pouting, "In short terms, yes. As whatever she was placed under, unlike the other two, she needs to at least drink with every meal by either a potion to replenish her body, or fluids of the red variety…" seeing the healer lost them, stilled them with seeing Morgana being confused why her fangs were longer and poked her left one in curiosity, from taking notice of it, "She needs to consume blood by willing individuals as from what we know of her kind, their saliva can also heal wounds and infected areas of various outcomes too, more so to their tears like a phoenix, and only activate their venom to when they are in biting distance from threats of anything."
Sirius sighed while rubbing his head as he recalled a while ago that his goddaughter's two powerful mothers warned him about this, and sighed as they watched him go over to his godchild and held out an arm to make her blink at him, in utter shock, "Go ahead."
Morgana looked worried with them seeing her eyes were showing mixed feelings and also the desperation of sorts they easily saw on her face, and stated softly with her voice sounding a bit better, "I don't want to… Hurt you… Uncle Siri…" though it seems she was still weak yet looked like she was fighting with herself as well, despite being healthy, and fearful as to what will happen.
"I'm offering as this is a few things I can make up at least for not being there when you truly needed me, Pup," he tells her with seeing Morgana come over and hesitated, but didn't see Sirius wince a bit as she easily punctured his arm and began to taste his blood greedily without spilling any of it, and she couldn't stop as it faded away from her mind- She was snapped back to reality with her looking fearful at seeing how pale looking she caused her godfather as Marianne held her and was rather startled of witnessing that aura around her body frame, onto the bed, and saw no punctures of any sorts on his arm, and did taste the metallic flavor of blood fully in her mouth, still.
"It seems that you are not in control when your low of your energy, at drinking others energy or blood," the healer stated shakily as later on, Morgana was gazing at her hands and feeling with her tongue gently her fangs as they refused to go back to normal and with Marianne keeping her company since Sirius was being given a special drought to recover, and it was awkward as Morgana let out her tears silently as well.
She felt better but also Morgana felt guilty of being mixed, as in truth, she loved and hated what she did. Once she tasted the previous liquid, she couldn't stop at all, and was worried about if she attacked anyone she cared for or even her girls by still feeling that craving for it, but it was fully quenched as well.
Morgana stilled and glanced at Marianne finally speaking, without breaking eye contact with soft eyes at her, and made the Young Chaosarinian look down at her clawed hands then, "From what we barely know is that Royals, once they tasted enough blood by any means, would require that or pure magical energy to satisfy them fully and heal better… Addicting, yes, but they would gain better control of themselves as time goes, unless they are trapped in a situation where they were isolated and forced to be unfed or worse to have that addiction grow and grow, until they attack the first thing they see and drain them fully to death. Either from magic, plasma or blood."
Marianne recalled reading whatever lore their kind had, which was little of Morgana's royal type having this issue and what made most of them be wiped out, from the Tainted War, to which they couldn't find out more of.
"I'm sorry," was all Morgana could state with a sniffle as it was ten minutes ago the healer declared she was able to be discharged and be watched over, but she refused to leave the room with some of her progress shifted to thinking she was a monster again.
She stopped as Marianne got up from her seat and hugged her with eyeing her two girls who Morgana has yet to notice, gazing on in concern over her with seeing Cassie drinking a vial and looking better, and told her gently as despite not declaring love for boys or anyone as a true relationship, it doesn't mean she can't still show unrequited love for her friends and family, "It may be your actions based in your desires that is making you feel this way, Mary, but it's how you choose to face it that counts."
Chipana dragged Cassie away from the area with her feeling that Morgana needed time to herself and headed to the ballroom for seeing what the party was, as Morgana wiped her eyes and choked out softly with wanting to know, badly, "How can you deal with what I just did to my godfather and seem so comforting to me, a monster? What if it was Dawn? King Dagda?"
Marianne knew from what she and her family learned in time from Sirius, of Morgana's past upbringing and made her stiffen as she only hugged her a bit more firmly yet gently with telling her in a softer tone to know she was serious about this, and making Morgana wonder how she knew of her big sister, "You are not a monster. Just a child of a race that doesn't know what to do or how to handle yourself, and limited knowledge of it… I don't think Belle would want to see you like this whenever you go back."
"Uncle Siri told you?" Morgana weakly asked after a few moments to make Marianne recall the wedding day as that very expression of sadness and regret was easily shown by Morgana, from what she saw back then to herself from her room's mirror after Roland betrayed her, and only nodded once before telling her while electing a half-hearted giggle from the child, from gently tickling her sides, "He did to all of us, but more importantly you need to get out of your spunk and do something to help take what you did, off your mind."
"What do you have in mind, Mei?" Morgana tilted her head cutely at her with Marianne's heart warming gently at hearing that nickname once again from the child, as eventually later that day, Morgana was reluctant yet gently sipped mixed blood and apple cider juice from a fairy servant from some fairies who willingly allowed her to have it, and was with both Cassie and Chipana.
The Young Chaosarinian got to met her godfather's wife and was actually happy for him, and she didn't mind what she did as she oddly stated he deserved that for leaving her after doing something private before Morgana woke back up from her cursed statue state, and waved at Dawn as Sunny was trying to position her to the one crush, but went to another male fairy to make him sigh.
Cassie hit her head on the table a few times and with Chipana giving the girl a stare as Morgana eventually asked in worry, to amuse Chipana at seeing Cassie tint when she was checking her forehead after the last slam almost caused a goose egg to form, "You ok?"
"I'm fine Mary, just that I'm bloody bored out of my mind." Cassie complained gently to only get the two girls to shake their heads at her before wilting after her suggestion, with a former glint to her eyes of being mischievous, "Let's go prank someone."
"We are not going to do that as we're representing ourselves with the fairy folk, Cass." Morgana told her in a way she was being firm but would have liked to do that, and that got Cassie to pout before they turned to Chipana as she was eating some sweet bread stuffed with glazed honey and cinnamon, and also drinking some sweet earl tea, "Well, it could be worse… Maybe there will be a party crasher or something."
Morgana was about to reply before her ears twitched and they saw her sharply turn in a warm look at them seeing the king and his eldest daughter now coming into the room, linking arms, and didn't notice a familiar male fairy and his escort was already here.
It was the eldest princess' suggestion for her to attend this and the other festival coming up later on in a few days after the ball, for the elves, as an idea, and did promise to dance with her and her girls too, for fun.
"Smile, my dear. Smile," King Dagda tells Marianne as she sighed and placed a large smile on her face while gazing to her father to try and making it convincing, "A real smile," he said through his more convincing yet true one as she admitted while still fake-smiling, "This is one of my better ones." She even gestures with her hand to prove it.
"You used to love the Spring Ball." He reminded her from the past to which she waved while having her so-called smile be half-formed as she admitted to him and he inwardly sighed from, "Dad, I'm just too old for this." Marianne blinked and understood as it was a hard time for them all by her adjustment during the last few years of the wedding, "I just want to see the 'Happy Marianne' I used to know. Before the… Roland misunderstanding."
"I'm happy," she told him yet she was unsure after repeating it once again as she saw her father wasn't convinced, as the duo approached the steps that lead down to the ball floor from the hallway, and did make Marianne look at him softly at his gentle words, "Well, I hope you're happy enough to dance with your father."
"Or someone even better," a male voice said to still Marianne as the escorted guard revealed Roland with him doing a pose, and the female fairy noticed Morgana from her spot being held down by both of her girls, from seeing the glowing eyes she had and soon wilted in submission by Chipana pulling her left ear in a gentle but firm twist, as even Marianne wasn't happy he was here.
Marianne and her helpers did gasp at seeing him though, as he began to sing to her with a small slide to the steps.
Roland: "Whoa-oh-oh! Here I am!"
"Roland!" Marianne examined quietly yet loudly enough to easily show her rage and other emotions at seeing him, which was ignored, as he sang even as he got onto his knees and his three trusted guards aiding him in his attempts.
Roland: "On my knees again!"
"Dad!" Marianne complained to her father as he only smiled at her expectantly, and was inwardly groaning to herself, and saw him do the hair trick.
Roland: "I'd do anything~, to make it right!"
"He's so romantic," her father said as she did a fake-curl motion with her finger to prove a point as her helpers crossed their arms at the male blonde fairy, "I'm so into that hair thing."
Roland: "Say you'll understand~?"
"Never!" Marianne turns away from him as he appeared to be begging as she also crossed her arms and Morgana from where she and her two girls were, and where she saw Sirius getting head-slapped by some comment she didn't hear by Saira making him wilt for.
Roland: "I know you can!"
"Oh, no I can't!" She told him firmly in irritation as he kept singing for forgiveness.
Roland: "Come on~, Marianne~!"
Three Escort Guards (All Together): "Come on, Marianne!"
Marianne glided down the steps and stated to him in reminding the foolish blonde male fairy as he raised an eyebrow at her for, "You cheated on me, remember?"
Morgana once she heard this, was once again tugged at her ear to make her whimper with Cassie using this as blackmail for later, as Roland told her in a gentle retort back, "You left me at the altar, remember?" He then purposely made a plunging motion to his heart and fling himself back to his guards as they caught him, and he was playing dead while looking at her after a few moments, and stood up as they danced with him too.
Roland: "No matter what people say~, it didn't happen that way~! She was a passing fling, and not a permanent thing!"
"Oh, really?" Marianne scoffed as she recalled how lovey-dovey he was with that random fairy, and ignored his look unseen by everyone at that, as he resumed dancing with the three guards and fellow guards in the room, and even did a hangman motion as well.
Roland: "So I hang my head~! Oh, I wish I was dead!"
"I can help with that," Marianne tells him in unexpected glee, to which he ignores and continues to prove his case.
Roland: "Come on, Marianne~!"
Morgana blinked with her and her two girls again, shaking their heads at Dawn trying to be flirtatious with the dancing guards while also dancing, as Roland continued without being deterred or aware that Dawn was dancing with them, and ran up to her and tried to smooch the elder princess as well.
Roland: "Come on… Marianne!"
She took off to the ceiling of the room, alongside her helpers as Roland just kept singing to her with what Morgana felt like it was not true, alongside her girls.
Roland: "Say you can understand! My Marianne~!"
During that though, the guards and a few other dancing fairies opened their wings around the fountain in a display to what the brunette female fairy saw, and scoffed at, again, quietly to herself.
The crowd gasps at this as Marianne groans out to him in displeasure, and a pointed look to match, "Ugh! I'm not your anything," and down below to anger her further, stated in remark, "Hey. One little mistake."
"Little?" She exclaimed as she glided down with anger, easily showing on her face from that, "You got a lot of nerve walking in here." She landed on her feet with mixed emotions and fury being one such emotion within her firm face and eyes, as her three helpers supported her as well as she began to sing back in a way, she hid the urge to smirk from Morgana, Cassie and Chipana cheering her on.
Marianne: "Think you got the best of me~? Think you had the last laugh~?"
Roland was backing up and the crowd nearby backing away from the two as he responded with a chuckled yet nervous wording, no, but she wasn't deteriorating yet was still determined to prove a point across.
Marianne: "Bet you think that everything~ good is gone~!"
She waved him back away from her as he told her hastily, "Hold on there, darling." And she wasn't having it as she kept backing him up as sang to what she felt about his sung words to her, and some of the fairy crowd gathered a bit with some whispering to themselves with what they were observing.
Marianne: "Think you left me broken down~. Think that I have come running back~. Baby, you don't know me 'cause you're dead~ wrong~!"
Marianne did exhibit her displeasure at Roland by her body language, easily gesturing for her with him waving his hands at her down by stating to her hastily, and gazing at the crowd and her several times, "Okay, slow down there, Marianne."
Marianne: "What doesn't kill you~ makes you stronger~! Stand~ a little~ taller~!
She began flying and still backing him up and also letting her heart out at him from her repressed feelings of utter betrayal and hatred at him for and the crowd gasping as she was going to bring gossip and more once again to the kingdom by her actions.
Marianne: "Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone!"
Roland, to make the three girls and those watching blink, was being backed up to the fountain by Marianne as she kept singing at him, and even trying to punch him and he dodged with him stating to her, watch the face.
Marianne: "What does not kill you makes a fighter~! Footsteps~ even lighter~! Doesn't mean I'm over~ 'cause you're gone~!"
Roland began to counter-sing as he was shoving innocent fairies in her path and still being backed up to the fountain as well and also avoiding the crowd and Marianne, not impressed and mentioned he was on his knees, "Oh there ya go!"
Roland: "On my knees again!"
"On your knees again," Marianne mocked with an eye roll as she kept backing him up, and did hold a brief smirk on hearing Morgana saying, kick his face, and glanced in brief amusement at getting her ear pulled by Cassie this time with a look.
Roland: "I'll do anything~ just~ to make~ it right~!"
"Ya right," Marianne scoffed once again at him as he was now standing and her making Roland backing up further by his sung words back to her more.
Roland: "Say~ you'll understand~-"
"Only too well," Marianne interrupts him as he continues without much choice, and having an open-arm gesture as well.
Roland: "Oh, I know you can! Come on~, Marianne!"
Marianne, while not impressed by him still, only waved a finger to which her helpers also agreed with her as well, and sang back at him.
Marianne: "Didn't think that I'd come back~? I'd come back swinging~?"
She poke-shoved Roland to make the guards be knocked over and fall like dominoes a bit, and chased him while calling her by her old nickname, buttercup, and he tripped with her helpers smacking him and repeated the words, cheater, at his forehead as one and truly backed up from how determined Marianne was to the steps and small hallway leading out of the ballroom.
Marianne: "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger~! Stand up a little taller! Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone! What doesn't kill you makes a fighter~! Footsteps even lighter~!"
Morgana felt sorry for the one female fairy that was spun and landed on Sirius' table with his wife checking the girl over as Roland was being chased now to the doors as Marianne sang in determination at him.
Marianne: "Doesn't mean I'm over 'cause you're gone! What doesn't kill you makes you stronger~, stronger~! Just me~, myself and I~! What doesn't kill you makes you stronger~! Stand a little taller!"
"What are you trying to say?" He asked her in a panicked tone to which she grabbed the doors and was reaching for the handles and enjoyed his fearful look at her as she sang louder, to make his ears ring a bit.
Marianne: "Well, now it's time to say GOODBYE~!"
She shoved him and closed the doors with a mocking wave, and turned around while talking to herself in enjoying that and his wing was stuck on the doors itself, "Bye-bye." She turned and saw everyone simply stared at her, and her father showing he was not amused since she commented to the crowd, "Now, that was fun!"
Marianne rolled her eyes and decided to go sit with Morgana and the the other girls as the ball slowly resumed back to normal, and ignored the three escorts leaving and going through the doors after, with being amused with Morgana playfully glaring at both a cheeky Chipana and Cassie before giving Marianne a concerned look, "You ok, Mei?"
Marianne was touched by her and the other two girls as it seems they caught on quickly as to what happened from them, understanding moreover than the fairy crowd and her father, "More or less… I can't believe he showed up to try and resume things, a few years later that is."
"I actually thought you would kick him right up in the a-" Cassie began to state before Morgana shoved a sweet roll into her mouth from her plate to make the girl glare at her soulmate in playful fury for a few moments before flicking her nose, to amuse Marianne, as she understood what Cassie was going to say, "I would, but it would have sent a bad example as a princess to my Dad's eyes."
"Being a princess is hard at times," Morgana agreed with Chipana making the Potter Heiress tint now from wiping the remains of her blood-infused juice from her lips once she sipped and placed her drink down from a napkin, to which Marianne was a bit mixed on thinking it was both cute and weird, and did notice the envy from Cassie at that.
"So how are you three feeling after being statues for nearly two years?" Marianne asked them to change the subject and saw them blink at her at that as they glanced at each other before looking back, and Morgana shrugging to make her girls agree, and to quickly make Marianne think as to what they may have done to make the three think like this, "Well, it's a first of few things I ended up with, for once… Even though I felt nothing at all," and both Cassie and Chipana nodded with making Morgana blink this time at her two girls by their shared confession, and making Marianne gain an unseen yet faint blush at wondering who did these acts, "Unlike you, we were of sorts," Chipana states as Cassie added while sipping her juice after, in both an awkward silence and also trying to not blush, "That and people using our spot for… Activities."
Cassie hit her head after she placed her drink back on the table as Morgana turned to her, making Chipana shrug at Marianne by her wordless gesture to ask if the Young Chaosarinian was either naïve or truly clueless, "What do you mean by 'Activities'? I thought it was a decent looking place to maybe rest or relax at?"
Before Cassie could open her mouth, it was covered by Chipana to only make Morgana tilt her head with Marianne amused as she then whispered it to her friend, and the Potter Heiress immediately blushed fully in the face with her taking a large gulp of her drink as she excused herself while looking embarrassed, and Cassie soon laughing to herself before she wilted by Chipana glaring at her for a moment, and got up to see Morgana was asking for another cup of her drink to the servant close to her, reluctantly, with Chipana hiding a smirk at Marianne talking to her soul-sister on finally being told off.
Morgana nearly choked on her drink and patted her heart by the brief apologizing gaze Chipana had, especially her tail nearly uncurled from around her waistline with a few twitches as she asked her out of concern, "You ok, Mary? I know that Cassie tends to be a bit unaware of things at times and a bit chaotic, but she knows how you are feeling and maybe aware of how you see things."
Morgana saw changes from Chipana ever since she came back and as time went, from their one adventure with Ralph and them, and even Loki couldn't explain the slight shift of slight maturity, but could only guess it was her newer race they have yet to find out on, that, and whenever she looked at the full moon she felt energized by it and even healed her one stab wound from an attacker to Belle a few nights ago to them before this adventure, overnight that is from a sleepover, from its moonlight, and her tail still makes her alongside Morgana's freeze her body in a paralyzed state when gripped hard.
Of course the duo are also training to overcome this in secret whenever they get a chance to hang out, that is, that, and Tamatoa as a observer to when she asked him to do so before he was taken back to Ophis' castle for a job offer, and haven't heard of anything new since but from Iago, he told her one time he was oddly happy of his new job and knew the Nothing Drake, wants her to visit her again soon.
Anyways, the effects made Chipana be more aware in speech and mind, and a bit stronger and more mature while still being herself, and also impressing Miss Potts on that as well with Morgana and a select few, seeing hidden regret of sorts in the woman's eyes, at times.
"I just didn't expect what Cass meant, to be well… That," Morgana expressed softly with a faint blush coming back to hr cheeks at recalling the talks and more, and Chipana nodded with her soulmate as she asked for cider to which was already ready and grabbed it, and sipped it gently before making Morgana blink at her girl with thinking of things, "Besides that rather awkward topic, I wonder what your cousin will think about her father marrying a fairy? She is beautiful though alongside a good fighter and kind woman."
Morgana gazed at the table to which she had brief soft eyes at seeing her godfather and his wife, sharing food with adoring eyes at each other, and was glad he found happiness while she and both Cassie and Chipana, were cursed to be black marble statues.
To finally mention Saira in looks, she had smaller fairy ears with being a natural light tan skinned fairy with a delicate but sharp face and with widely-squared violet eyes and cute fangs from her upper lip, and had decently large crimson and silver and copper designed wings to that of angelic feathers on her membrane as she had the wing-like design as a butterfly to a gargoyle, as her type of fairy was the Dark Fey-based, and can handle the use of Shadow Magic and anything similar without setbacks. She wore though a fancy beige gown with her also wearing the Black Family Ring on her wedding finger to declare she was also Mrs. Black.
Morgana did chuckle and made Chipana faintly blush this time by her warm and admitting comment to her girl, and noticing Cassie forcing Marianne to play one of her scam games: Guess the Right Cup, or three cups and with the item chosen under it, "You would always look for someone who is a decent fighter to try and spare against, Chip. Which you are a few decent ones I know would give me a workout when serious… Especially to my teacher and a few others."
Chipana coughed with her right hand awkwardly before rubbing her head with a smile in a few ways that in other realm or world, a particular and certain man sneezed to himself while sparing with one other person, told her then sheepishly, "It's that obvious, huh?"
Morgana only nodded a few times in wordless agreement, and blinked by Chipana's confession as she was soon gazing at her tail that she decided to wrap around her waist once again, "Ever since I became as I am, I do feel the same yet different, as I feel like I want to fight others to get stronger, and even hold in some of my feelings and only reveal them to you or the others. No one else, My Ma- I mean, Mary."
Morgana chose not to reveal Chipana's slip up with her words to her as she placed an understanding hand on her girl's left shoulder after sitting her drink on the table next to them for a moment, with Chipana, secretly, having a few heavy thumps of her own heart by this kind gesture to her, "Well, we're still looking into what that Mutagen back in Witwaks did to you, as we both fully know along with Uncle Frost at this point, merely unlocked things as it seems you were already what you're now are, but was sealed away somehow. A Hybrid of sorts…" Morgana sighed by her girl's look to her at that before adding to her words to touch Chipana a bit, "I know how you feel about yourself as I have to remind myself of a few things whenever I wake up at times, and being as I am in a race, or you, doesn't change as to who you are."
Morgana grabbed her drink and went over to the table back with Marianne and Cassie as not known to anyone, in the darker corners of the vast room itself there was a cloaked entity drinking some wine before deciding they seen enough, vanished be entering a dark vortex that was cleverly hidden and went somewhere.
It was later on that Morgana was with both Sirius and his wife, for about an hour after the party and simply getting to know one another, and didn't know that her two girls were exploring more of the castle and may have run into something unexpected, when she hugged him after being told that they planned to try and take a few others via The Fairy King's own words in secret to him, a selected few others to try and live in Salem, once a way back was in order, and that both he and Saira were trying.
Meaning the married couple were trying to have a child, but failing due to knowing in his younger days, he was exposed to a lab accident during his third year that stated there was a low chance of having kids, by a misfired prank from someone actually trying to compete with The Marauders or in terms, him, James, Remus, and someone named Petigrew, made during their youth… And majorly backfired with the person ending up being expelled at some point in 6th Year, from accidentally and nearly killing twenty students from the last prank they did.
Everyone lived though, but more things happened for the person and their family, which we will get back to for another time, and it was a miracle that Ceraza existed.
"I knew someone with your name once when I was a little one," Saira decided to speak to make Mogana blink a few times at her and making Sirius raising a brow, as they were in the halls with casually walking and passing some guards of the kingdom being watchful of some rooms being off limits, which one they past was the King's Quarters, "You didn't tell me that, Love?"
"She was here with some man long ago alongside her twin, during summer's end I believe, to help with the sickness that was brought to both kingdoms, that was brought by the Dark One's plans." Saira nodded to her husband yet continued to make Morgana ponder this, as she paused mid-step with them stopping and turned to her by making Saira slightly uncomfortable, "Dark One? Whose that?"
"To us, it is a dark and sentient beast, but to your human tales by Siruis at times, a darker and more questionable yet sane-chaotic version of the Boogeyman," Saira decided to answer Morgana to make her frown in thought, as she did read about other variations of creatures, but to make it from her new aunt's voice to be truly scared in secret, which Sirius also picked up on, made her decide to drop it for now with changing the subject, "Do you have any family then, Aunty?"
Despite liking the sound of the title bestowed by Morgana, Saira held back the urge to sigh with looking ahead as both good and bad memories went through her mind as she explained to the two then of her past a bit, "I did had a family once, Mary. It was a long time ago when I was a little fairy girl, like I mentioned before… The lands were happy and carefree, and the Dark Kingdom was not a threat to us til as of now. It was during the visitors' time that a threat of unknown nature and power came down and rained upon us, alongside enemies we cannot face alone. The many kingdoms rose up together, and aided the visitors by vanquishing the entity and the creatures it controlled, ran or fled to realms unknown. My father and mother didn't make it as I was an only child, as the war long ago claimed many lives from all sides of the realm itself, my kin included as only a few of my race's kind survived back then, and scattered after the war was done to other kingdoms and realms. I have seen many things, but to the truth, I am glad you didn't witness the horrors of the war itself as the Dark Kingdom still keeps the head of the entity's beastly form as a trophy entrance… The entryway to enter and leave their kingdom's castle, from the summoned entity. There was another with the beast and stating, although, that one day it will be brought back, and one of gold and their allies will face it head on, and truly save our realm from extinction, when it has returned."
Morgana, despite liking the story, lightly placed her hand onto Saira's with Sirius being inwardly pleased of his godchild and wife getting along quite nicely, before they held themselves as the entire castle shook before hearing an explosion of sorts, and went to investigate… For only Morgana to gaze at the scene in utter shock as her two girls looked wary with seeing Marianne hugging Dawn within one of the recently damaged and larger halls to comfort her, and the king soon ordering to find something or someone, she didn't hear, and asked the more aware Cassie then Chipana, as she gazed at her hands with mixed feelings, "What happened?"
Cassie then began to explain what went down while she was with her godparent and his wife.
Flashback to forty-eight minutes ago within The Ballroom, with Cassie, Chipana, Marianne and Dawn:
The four decided to stay back by letting Morgana go ahead and bound with Sirius while playing a card game that the princesses' father might add to their festivities: Spoons, and with Marianne winning this time as the round points were between her and Cassie with one, and the other two, zero.
Eventually the four decided to venture out into the halls since Dawn mentioned that their father was going to finally add the historical wing room, and wanted to show them a sneak preview, much to Marianne's dismay at that. That, and she was currently in charge over the two girls and thankfully, no guards for her sister to flirt with.
"So the wing is supposed to have things from your wars and stuff?" Cassie questioned Marianne as Dawn was secretly teasing Chipina from a question of sorts she asked her, and the brunette fairy shrugged with the duo keeping pace with the other two in front of them, "Possibly? Dad did mention it will contain nearly all the relics and other things from the few wars that he and Mom were in, alongside our ancestors and a few others that gained favors and other things."
Once inside, the two younger girls were in awe at seeing things with Cassie whistling with her arms crossed while being impressed, as the four easily saw that the room was bigger than the ballroom, but more carefully equipped for this situation of storage and showing off.
"Well, this is very good," Cassie admits with Chipana being silent and agreed with eyeing a few other things in interest as both princesses smiled at them gently with Dawn coming behind her fellow blonde girl with gently squeezing her shoulders as well, and replied with ease, "Yep," here she made a slight popping sound with the letter 'P' here, "Dad wanted to truly make it that everyone who visits the wing itself, would be in awe and other things," she glanced back as her big sister only nodded, "Right Marianne?"
"Alright!" Marianne clapped her hands together once, eventually doing as she said to the two girls, "Let's get this preview started."
Few moments later after learning a few historical items, the four soon saw a carpeted mural of sorts to make Dawn blink in utter surprise at, and admits to knowing this was one of the cherished items their father had, "I didn't know Dad placed that item Mom made, here."
It was at least the size of both length and width of a 50 inch plasma screen T.V., with the edges being crafted, like the rest, in careful precision to what seemed like years to make, as the image itself looked like to what you would see in ruins from the way they were in place, as if a foretelling or story, and saw to what appear to be several kingdoms and unusual individuals, and more, facing against a truly terrifying and dark beast, and it being engaged by on the side of good, an interesting creature with using the very essence of nature itself.
"What is this?" Chipana decided to ask the two princesses as not known to them, they were not alone anymore as the duo glanced at each other before replying to her question from Marianne knowing the story more than Dawn, "It's the Battle of the Kingdoms. Long ago before even my sister and I were born, both Mom and Dad were part of a war that united the kingdoms of this realm, once, against a beast that was summoned by a slain Warlock to destroy it, and devour all within its path… From what I recall of the tale, they begged a goddess who aided them, with summoning the very essence of the living wood itself to further cripple and managed to take down the beast with the aid of both my father, and the former ruler of where we're forbidden to go. Though… They also faced the spirit of the Warlock himself, as he was in leagues of others they never told us about, but managed to send the dark spirit out of our realm and into another plane of existence, but crippled our mother in the process to where she could no longer fight."
The two girls recalled some tales Siruis told them alongside Saira about the Dark One, from her sometimes telling it, and Marianne blinked before thinking after Cassie's wary question with hinted excitement, as Chipina perked up at hearing their mother was a possible fighter, "What happened to the beast?"
"Well, the one kingdom in the Dark Forest, has the skull of the beast as a entrance trophy to intimidate those that enter," Marianne began with trying to think about the more detailed knowledge due to being the heiress and elder of the two princesses and making the three with her, be slightly grossed out or intrigued by what she began to count down with the use of her fingers, "And the rest of it's corpse was cut, split, and was given to the other kingdoms to use as purified leather and more, especially the innards to the alchemists and potion makers from finding out it was a mixed entity to be very useful for further studies to them… Even the heart, lungs, intestines and brain."
"Wicked," Cassie told her to only make the elder princess shake her head with seeing Chipana gazing at the one entity, and before she could respond, all four stiffened at hearing clapping and turned to find… "I thought I would see the one child, but it seems fate has other plans." It was a male by appearance, but he was fully cloaked with having a bone-white mask in the design of a monkey or ape of sorts, with having a burly yet slightly lean appearance of a figure while crossing his arms.
The four became guarded within moments by this unexpected déjà vu moment, with Chipana, to startle Cassie for once, actually growled at the unknown person before them as Marianne didn't seemed phased by the male when she threateningly had her weapon at and aimed at him, and firmly declared in a questioned warning, "How did you enter my father's kingdom?"
"I simply let myself in, as after all…" the male began with them being shocked he shifted into a random guard from a simple snap of his right hand, into a random servant after doing so again, and back, "I have a few tricks up my sleeve," he paused before he chuckled with snapping his fingers and to make them look at him weirdly, had to what appeared to be a banana-colored pistol he twirled a few times before dismissing it, "I am someone you do not want to ever cross with, especially to jokes and whatnot as I am the few former apprentices to one who mastered that tactic."
Wary on this, the girls backed up with not seeing the man was amused, before snapping his fingers with seeing the only way out was covered in permafrost-looking red jam or even crystals, and didn't like the gleam front he mask eye holes at them as if he got a sudden and wicked idea, from seeing some old knight armor, "And since I'm in a good mood, I will leave you four females a little yet HUGE parting gift while I watch on the sidelines to see where the girl is, as I wanted to test her before the brute one of my group, can, after learning of her."
The four didn't like the sound of that as the man smirked with channeling dark-like power with something else within his left fist, and with a dark chuckle, he made a unusual vortex appear behind him while he vanished in a way, a specific male sneezed while training with his rival and friend in a canyon-based setting and resumed their spar.
What came out was not expected with Marianne putting her guard up and understood by her little sister going behind her for safety, and with both Cassie and Chipana not expecting the creature either as it rolled it's shoulders with glancing left and right, before looking at them sharply and shrugged to itself with slightly stretching as if, they were not a bother to it.
It was a pure white entity of sorts that of a strong resemblance to not only gothic gargoyles, but being thin, clawed-based reptilians with large leathery bat-like wings. Its tail appeared to be prehensile, with it constantly whipped around their bodies and tipped with a hidden barb. Atop their visage was a pair of small horns, snake-like hair, and pointed ears… Strangely, their presence from what they can scent, brought the simple smell of vinegar and a perceptible increase in the warmth of the air, and the eyes of this creature were slanted and from the fanged snapping jaws came a rasping voice at them after taking a breath of fresh air as if it hadn't smelled it for so long, "So clean and refreshing… How long I awaited being freed from Hell itself, and my other brethren… But got lucky by the random summoning vortex."
Several more showed with being various in designs and colors, but they all wore hoods over the top of their heads, and left quickly into other newer colored vortexes they produced into ways unknown as the vortex closed from one being smaller and more feminine with a humanoid appearance, left as well after getting a nod from the creature.
"Who or what are you?" Marianne spoke firmly to make it amused by seeing her in a new light of utter interest, and shrugged to itself before realizing it was a male of it's kind by fully detecting the voice it has, spoke to them carelessly as if they were not his problem, "Well, I would rather stay and chat, but it seems I can sense something far more dangerous approaching, and have a feeling that my Goddess chose perfectly for me to be free from." He took note of her weapon and chuckled to humor himself, "Perhaps we can spare at another date? As I would rather see what other realms I can venture into and provide myself some particular entertainment."
Before they could stop him, he summoned a dark-like white vortex with silvery-based smoke and mist from within and out, in a swirling inward image as seen yet paused as he glanced at Cassie and Chipana with a glint to his eyes and told them in a way, the duo might see him again, "Perhaps as the rare White Abishai Race, that I, Kogudan, will perhaps test whom I can sense might be worth my time."
Once he left, the four moved further back as a much darker and larger sinister vortex formed from somehow feeling it was what was truly meant for them as a so-called gift from the one stranger, as what came from it once it closed, they hid with luckily not being found by it.
It resembled what the creatures were of the Abishai Race, but looked more twisted, twice as tall or fourteen feet even, muscular and even tainted with darkness imbued wings it emitted from the webbing, and a more demonic appearance of sorts with the face closely resembling to a dachshund and komodo dragon combined perfectly alongside dreadlocks and untamed long mixed hair up to its neck in the colors of copper, gold, and silver. It had four glowing amberish and red slit pupil-based eyes, with it having tattered yet hellish gothic-like armor with on the shoulders having an unusual symbol, two different ones in fact, and had black as night skin or charcoal-like skin that gleaned in the light slightly along with green demonic runes going in a spiral on the arms and legs it has. Speaking of the legs, they were closer to a humanized-like velociraptor with the creature having not one but two prehensile tails with the tips being daggers that were jagged, sharp, and four-ways. On the waist looked to be twisted looking dull-metal scimitars with a red-like pearl at the hilt's tip.
The true threat began to sniff the air deeply a few times with it also letting out a forked tongue to taste the air like a snake would, before letting out a shrill-like roar to make the four cover their ears before moving away from the armor as it used it's two tails to easily knock them over and cause damage to the walls, and began to pursue the four.
Marianne managed to slice the tip of one of the tails to see it immediately disintegrate into a dark and smoky mist to which she quickly dodged one of the attack of the blade the creature had with Dawn nearly tripping over herself in sheer luck of not getting swatted to the wall, which Cassie did with her emitting cartoonish-like swirling stars around her head, shook herself to awareness before moving away from the dented wall as it was knocked down by the same tail, and the four fled into the halls.
The creature roared in angered pursuit with it easily catching up to them no matter where they went, and with servants and guards moving out of their way, or the creature's path with Marianne cutting the oncoming tail assaults with the creature regrowing the missing limbs very easily.
Cassie saw Chipana stop them when they noticed a barrier was placed in front, and way behind the creature in the larger hall they were in with thankfully, no servants with Dawn placing her hand back at the unexpected heat the barrier itself gave off when she was close to it, with her elder sister narrowing her eyes at the raspily chuckling creature as it flapped its wings a few times before roaring at them in challenge as if to state, there was no escaping it.
"Seems we have to fight this thing," Cassie tells the other three with her with Marianne not saying anything and ignored Dawn's words of, wait, and charged at the creature to only get swatted by one of it's blades without slicing her to the wall, and crashing into the barrier to which she bit back painful words at being stung and her little sister went over to her with helping her up.
From seeing things to make the elder of the small group realize one thing as it did nothing but observe them with a cruel smirk, it was toying with them then wanting to defeat them.
"Chip, wait!" Cassie exclaimed with seeing the girl charge at the creature next and stunned it she avoided the weapon it was going to use to send her to a wall as well, and made it screech in shock and made the three others stare at the blonde with stunned shock, when she even glanced at her hands from having green energy and blasted the creatures face, which it held as the weapons appeared to be enchanted and remained in the air in a protective way.
Chipana casually ducked from the tails trying to swipe her with Cassie hiding a yelp as so did the other two princesses from avoiding the wild movements the creature did to soothe it's pain of the affecting blast of raw energy she blasted it with, and trying to wipe the ash-like debris off its face, at the same time.
After it recovered after mere moments of doing three full circles in randomness, Cassie yelped loudly when she had to avoid the creature's unexpected fury aimed at her, which it used it's tails to keep Chipana at bay with only the girl herself using her fists and even her tail to aid her in fighting, with Dawn also hiding behind some debris the beast caused with Marianne not doing much either, with her sword skills only living scratches then wound marks on the sides it has.
This thing is too much! Marianne realized before she was sent by the creature roaring at her at successfully doing, of slicing the top of the right ear as the sliced piece quickly evaporated into a dark mist, into the ceiling by one of it's tail nabbing and sending her to it with several thumping slams, as it roared after with letting her go at Chipana being furious of it successfully nabbing Cassie in it's right hand, leaps and somehow draws dark-purple blood to fully bite it, and dropping her with Dawn flying and catching her before they hid in another spot to avoid it's wrath.
The creature while angered, made them all wary as it let out a raspy chuckle with a glint to the four eyes it had, and both Mariane and Chipana moved as the weapons became thousands of daggers and with them dodging or trying to, with Chipana soon snapping as Cassie got stabbed by sheer accident of Dawn making them move, to the sides and with the blonde fairy crying out in alarm without realizing after, she projected a barrier around her and Cassie.
Chipana stood in place with feeling something within her, was growing and growing the longer she stood there, gazing at Cassie withe hr looking weak and frail to which, was unlike the girl the dubbed monkey girl knew, with Marianne being stunned for a moment about her sister making the barrier; ignoring the beast's shout of outrage at this with reforming the weapons back into its two blades.
It then vanished before appearing right behind the distracted Chipana and didn't hear Dawn's shout or even Cassie's at her as it was getting ready to slice her head off, before it stunned the creature as she managed to easily catch the blade with her fingers as a tealish-green aura was covering her frame and with her sharply glaring in fury at the beast, and making it wary for once from what the three girls saw, and somehow to astonish it and the three, she managed to break it by crushing the blade itself; the weapon becoming nothing but darkness and an evaporating mist.
The creature vanished and appearing a few feet away as the aura got dense for Chipana's prone form, and ignored the stinging her hands had from the cuts that were soon healing in moments, up, and vanished before gut-punching the creature with it wheezing and being sent right at the barrier it made to make it screech at itself in unexpected surprise and was bounced right back to her and she did it again, and again, until it righted itself and was going to jab her with it's blade… Before side-stepping and grabbed it's left arm, and both princesses were growing wary as to whatever was going on with her as they heard actual bone crunching, and the creature bit back a pained screech with that blood appearing as she did so, and swirled in a way a certain plumber sneezed from his place in the particular arcade, and tossed it away from her as she vanished.
Not known to the enraged Chipana, the trio of Dawn, Cassie and Marianne were soon surrounded by cloaked individuals with glowing amber eyes under the hood, and the patterns being to that of black flames from the dull-gray cloaks at the bottom and with cruel-like demonic blades that were with forgotten runes and with jagged sides, to do them harm if it wasn't for Dawn blinking at the barrier she unknowingly made once again.
The weapons they wielded though, bounced off and out of their hands before being roasted by the creature, as each one stabbed random parts of its body, out of anger, and left nothing but smoky dust with Chipana and the creature resuming their so-called battle against each other then by vanishing and appearing in random bursts of speed that was hard to keep track of.
"I don't know how you did that, Dawn, but thanks." Marianne tells her sister to which she nodded in being perplexed to then make the elder princess amused as she saw the blonde fairy princess tried to activate it, but was to no avail with Cassie soon shoving the due princesses away from her with Chipana freezing on the spot with what looked like she was going to blast the creature, as it nabbed her with a cruel grin directly to her.
Without warning though, Chipana, Marianne and Dawn were soon blasted back to the walls with wincing as they got up, from seeing someone knew they must have been there the entire time as they shimmered into existence from their camouflage spell wearing off.
It was a fully crimson cloaked man with storm clouds around the edges, but he wore a bone-white mask representing to that of a bird of some sorts that did reveal his glowing hazel eyes, and glanced at the creature who raspily chuckled by the order he gave out before hopping into a floor portal he summoned made of darkness, "Have fun, but make it so we can further test them. I have the sample needed to do more for this world's chaotic plan we have, and for the hostage… Enrage them as you please."
Chipana and the two princesses, and even Cassie didn't like that before she held back a scream of shocked pain and to still the ape girl, it purposely sent one of it's tails right through Cassie's chest and tossed her away before getting something, consumed it, and despite what happened as Cassie was very weak yet alive, watched as the creature grew three times its size with the weapons vanishing, but it grew two more tails, and looked even more deadly than before.
It let out an empowered roar to know it was done having fun, to their horrid realization at that before vanishing and nabbing all three with what it could with the tails and began flailing them around like mere toys.
Cassie tried to get up but saw to her horror, her legs wouldn't respond and struggled to still do so with not seeing her wound was slowly healing up, and caught the beast's attention and made her scream loudly as she was sent right into a few chairs and stands within the hall, and was passed out from hitting her head.
Chipana saw this, and saw that the creature was purposely taunting her to challenge it more, with gripping both princesses to make them let out a startled scream of unexpected pain at them getting shocked by sparks of black lightning it soon began emitting, and tossed them right at Cassie after a full minute and knocking them out by force as well, with Dawn projecting a barrier up while knocked out.
"I can give you power to avenge those this thing has done…"An unexpected voice spoke to her to which she would have said something before it began to torture her by shocking her constantly for a few minutes, and then tossed her right at the barrier and caught her in a more firmer grip again.
I can't… Trust you… She weakly thought as it was crushing her tail while in the grip it had, and letting out rasping chuckles darkly in victory to see she couldn't put up a fight, and opened it's maw to begin the process to devour her entirely, "It's not the matter of trust, Child, but of survival and vengeance to those that have fallen before you." The voice within her mind corrected her to which she bit back a scream of agony from it crushing her as it made her closer to it's maw, "You're father overused my power when he slept with your mother, to conceive you, and you appear to be a more worthy candidate to use me properly as he only saw to the essence of his own life force with my own essence, then what was intended."
Chipana, despite wanting to know what this voice meant, but saw with her bleary eyes how close she was to her demise, made the voice pleased by her thought-based answer within seconds, Help… Me… "Then say this name with your main hand outwards…" the voice told her the name and words as her eyes glowed a amberish-teal color; the amber overtaking her sclera with teal overtaking her irises, and startled the beast by the unexpected aura-based blast it received as she did a full 360-degree backflip and landed perfectly on the ground with her right hand outwords, and shouted loudly with a slightly echoed yet obvious voice of hers and whatever power was present and aiding her with not seeing the hand gain a unknown sigil on top, "Come forth and aid my dire need to your powers by my father, Xazina!"
In her main hand to make her hold back being startled while feeling it came from her entire being slightly, was a sword that's a very long, straight blade type of longsword that's around thirty-five inches long with silvery mysterious yet many small complex engravings etched into both the sides. The blade is made of an unknown pitch-black as night metal to which, from the right amount of light and more, gives off a grayish-green mixed sheen. It has a complex guard, a solid gold grip, and a decorated pommel with rose-thorn straps in design. The scabbard is made of refined jade with leather, which it was placed to her left side with a fine-leather sword strap.
With a minor wince as whatever weapon she was wielding, seemed to be healing her bruises and minor injuries as she dodged rolled to her left with avoiding all four tails to try and pummel her, yet made the monster screech in true agony as she managed to make a clean slice to one of the tails and blinked back for a moment before a smirk entered her face, at watching the entire tail disintegrate into a shadow-smoke of ash and darkness.
Without her realizing it, she had an unseen cruel smirk to which in the afterlife, a specific person sneezed by as she began to dodge and weave with the use of the weapon's aid, and sliced another tail as it did so like the previous former tail.
Chipana though was for once enjoying herself with indeed getting hit now and then, as the bubbling feeling of power, kept growing and growing to a point, she saw it covered her weapon in that one aura, and sliced the remaining tails off before taking unexpected fearful steps back as the beast roared at her in rage, and saw a darker aura cover it's frame before it began sending a laser at her from its eyes.
She was soon flying from the beams with seeing it did perfect slices from slicing stands and extra seats that were placed in this vast hall, and managed to go by a random few sets of mirrors and blinked in surprise as it reflected right back at the beast, and it howled in shocked and surprised brief pain with covering its face, and she vanished before taking several slicing attacks at the exposed parts of its body.
It roared at her with seeing it regrew those tails it previously had, and the process began again, and again, and again, with her growing wary as time went with feeling the power flowing from the sword reaching overwhelming things, which she realized by the smirk the beast had, it knew about what was going on.
Getting hard… To think… End it… Chipana thought to herself before to her shock, the weapon began to shake and while she began to scream, the beast stopped what it was doing with it, deciding to lean against the wall with a cruel smirk… Before it faded from tossing her onto the ground a few feet away from being formerly wrapped by its third tail as Chipana snapped, as the power she had yet to understand began to overwhelm her to the point she blanked out.
Cassie awoke to hearing her soul-sister laughing in a way she began to be wary as that aura covered her frame like a never-ending mist by her body movement with still being able to see her yet it was slightly dense, and her eyes were dimly glowing a pure amber in color as she pointed to the creature with witnessing her weapon disintegrate and get absorbed to her to further things, and spoke in a darker toned voice with Chipana gazing sharply at the beast in a way, from seeing it's face, the creature was sentient enough to not expect this, and with Chipana directly pointing with her right hand at the beast, "You… You will test my power!"
She vanished before appearing right in front of the beast's face, and made it let out a pained snarl from full direct contact of kicking it in the face, and knocking it over onto the ground, before she vanished once again and it let out a startled screech when she grabbed all four tails, and began to send it back and forth onto the ground with causing growing dents to form from her actions.
Cassie noticed both the princesses were coming to yet yelped when she was grabbed by Marianne sharply noticing the incoming creature to them by Chipana tossing it without meaning to, at their former spot, and all three were wide-eyed in utter shock with Dawn lightly gulping at the insane-looking Chipana as she made Cassie worried, "Something's wrong."
"Ya, Chip isn't like this at all," Cassie agreed with wincing like they did, at seeing the overwhelmed girl kicking where the sun won't shine at the beast, where it did wheeze, and sent it to a wall that it soon screeched from with it hitting its own barrier up, and making Cassie blink by seeing a health bar before rubbing her eyes, from the creature being nearly depleted, and barely dodged the unexpected lightning breaths it let out in plasma-like blasts… Until Chipana managed to vanish, and appear right in it's face again, and harshly kicked it during midcast to cause a minor explosion on it's last one, and once again began to do a smashing effect to which a certain scientist sneezed from in Tibet in Morgana's true time, and tossed it once again into a barriered wall.
"Well, whatever is wrong with her, at least she's mainly going after the thing," Marianne eyed out while also being worried as it seems the child is fighting by sheer instinct right now, and not sure what will happen once the beast is defeated.
For the mentioned girl, Chipana felt like she was under someone else's skin or felt like an outsider to her own body, with feeling she was being blocked with only able to watch as she easily was handling the creature that she saw easily from the eyes it had, was way over its head, as she felt her body grab the left leg it had, swirl, and tossed it past her dodging three friends and soul-sister before feeling her energy she was using, make her teleport and bash the head of the creature, with ignoring the pained screech it let out.
Without warning, Marianne and Dawn saw Chipana froze with angry snarling at the beast as within mere seconds out of spiteful rage, it had Cassie fully wrapped up around the one of few tail's it had within moments and with it speaking in a dark tongue, but within their minds, they realized this was something sentient and more darker than intended, at the same time, "If you do not stop attacking me, I will end this child's life."
Chipana that both princesses saw, seemed to be struggling in place with the duo witnessing the glint within the beast's eyes and the sharp-toothed smirk to which Cassie was wary of, as the beast stated firmly yet truly pleased, "Clever girl… Even though I may have encountered your race before upon my fellow warriors' army, you seemed to show rookie restraint to that overwhelming blessed yet cursed power. I was sent to test the one child by being paid to do so, but rather went after you at most, from merely using the vortex those pathetic lowers used to flee mere days ago and then used to venture to other worlds with the use of this kingdom's ley lines within a temporary setting."
While struggling in place, this truly shocked Chipana, and made both princesses wary with Marianne narrowing her eyes in dark suspicion as the beast seemed to be planning something, and it seemed that Chipana managed to struggle out with aware eyes for a moment to it, with the beast still smirking at her, "You… Know what… I am?"
"Indeed, as I am not part of my former kind, but something akin to more… Uniqueness that you pitiful mortals will never understand. Despite easily seeing you are a Half-Breed of two with being chosen at best, like the mentioned one child." The best began to dialogue with them, not seeing it slowly moving behind her one of the tails with the tip becoming dagger-like and sharp for a quick kill, "Though, I may have allowed you to have your way… You're not going to live to find out!"
Chipana blanked out with nabbing the wiggling appendage with a furious look and made the beast yowl painfully from her easily ripping the tip off, and time seemed to still as she appeared to try and return the favor, for only to have shocked eyes at seeing she stabbed Cassie in the heart, and the creature chuckling at this outcome before sending her with Cassie away into the barrier as it looked like it was feeling fine.
Or in terms, it was indeed acting like it took most of the damage Chipana dealt to it, with Dawn coming over with Marianne in shock, as it was strange that Cassie wasn't bleeding out, but was indeed looking very weak.
Seeing awareness in Chipana's orbs with Dawn wincing by the barrier-like shield showing up around them, with the beast snarling at not trying to harm them once again, coughed up unusual blue blood from her mouth with her passing out, and stilling whatever was overwhelming the girl, and Chipana herself, by what would be her final words, "It isn't… It's not your fault… Tell Mary I broke my promise we secretly made at not… Not going to my surprise for her."
Once she passed out, Chipana's power fully took over as she vanished from the barrier and went full-on-throttling against the creature to make it let out true cries of actual pain with both princesses wincing at what they watched.
Dawn did check Cassie over to feel a very faint pulse, but Marianne understood by her look to her the girl was barely alive and hanging on a thread, and grabbed from her person a vial to which shocked her sister with a 'Are you sure' wordless look, "Yes, as I know this stuff is rare to make from who I got it from, but it will be better she drank it right now then wait for something or someone dying."
Once the golden contents was given to the child, Dawn hid the urge to vomit as her elder sister easily pulled the still-wiggling part of the beast's tail out before it went to ashes within her hand, and saw the child's wound and her clothing mend itself within moments, saw her going wide-eyed with a deep breath, and passed out in Dawn's arms.
With Chipana, she was giving the beast literal hell in actual raw energy and damage, with an insane look on her face as within a vast and humongous-based world from within the top-half, her parents were giving an entity or two a look to which they sheepishly rubbed their head for, as she actually was devouring the creature's tails to which this time, refused to grow back, to its horror as it backed up away from her.
Before it could try and persuade her, Chipana looked to be sick and blasted such raw energy from her maw the beast screamed as it began to disintegrate into nothing and with someone outside and a mile away from the castle itself, they saw the idol that looked similar to the creature shrivel up and became nothing but ash and dust, and clenched their hands before plotting some more.
Chipana truly roared in rage with feeling the power trying to consume her- She was suddenly chopped at the back of her neck with Marianne seeing the person giving her a small vial with making Chipana forcibly drinking it, and came over and gave the same to Cassie, and yet before they could thank him from seeing the build, he was gone as if he wasn't there to begin with.
Soon after ten or so minutes, The King and his few guards came into the room with Morgana and both Sirius and his wife, seeing Chipana gazing in numbed shock at her hands.
Morgana herself was shocked before shaking her head and startling Chipana who had unshed tears within her eyes with mixed emotions the Potter Heiress saw and with Cassie being taken by Saira checking the child over as Siruis understood and went over to the two princesses to raise an eyebrow at the used flask, as Morgana gave her girl a look to stun her in place, with somehow hearing chuckling within her head by her Mate's words, "You did both wrong and right today, Chip. But you have to know that whatever power you accept, you are in control. Not itself."
Chipana nodded somberly to her with her tail drooping to know how upset she was inwardly, but refused to show the emotion while so many people are around them with checking the damage she and that beast caused, yet stated to her then with hugging herself, "But I was too out of the loop on handling whatever it was, and finding out that… That thing, knew what I was too, made me mixed, My Mate."
Morgana knew she would correct her girl, but decided to let it slide for now, as she made Chipana blink just as her godfather, his wife, and her other soulmated girl were coming over to know things were alright with the blonde, "But at least you can try and tame this power at some point, but for now… I can use something to eat, what about you?"
Chipana tinted at hearing her stomach making obvious gurgling sounds to amuse the two adults with giving Morgana knowing looks, as they were all as a small group, soon led into the great hall for supper.
Meanwhile within the boundaries within the Dark Forest, at this point and time:
A lone figure was pacing while angered the creature he attuned to a deal they made, was truly gone as such with thinking about another plan to test the three fools more, until they stilled when a shadow vortex came around, and out came Bull himself with not looking at the entity in any amusement whatsoever.
"You have overstepped your boundaries as to what my master wanted, and unto yours." Was all Bull firmly told him in a stance to know he was expecting to fight the person, who only shook their head with revealing felish-green and fiery-like designed eyes with a diamond pupil in the center, and hints of amberish-orange around it, only scoffed at him with giving Bull an equal look, "You are one to talk, Shadow General, as my own master has interests and despite being the elder banished twin of an old god to one who still thrives on the one world, he has further use for her and several others and simply wants to test their minds, and their wills with further others to see if they are worthy."
Bull only gave him a raised eyebrow with hiding this bit of spilt knowledge to himself to tell his master later on, but responded back to make the person's own eyebrow raise at him under the hood, "But as it may be, your group shouldn't be involved with the mettling of worlds and more, as well… Even knowing that you are more dangerous than the others of your master's kind which only lead to tricks, lies, and fake offerings to be true with prices involved."
"Indeed, even though we hail from other realms in dark dimensions, we decided to expand and seek for more… Potential, in case we have to face those that have not pleased those in their realms, and other things to which your own mind is incapable to handle either." Was what the person told him to hide an unseen smirk by the irritated low growl Bull emitted before shaking his head, and firmly told the person, "But you will not seek her out as she's under our interests more than your own."
"That sounds like a challenge then in the future? As my master has seen the fate of yours, and knows your master was offered by my own yet refused, and made sure that he was sent to a personal hell of a dimension, but to which he wouldn't mind waiting as he has more patients than his twin. That, and the other Formed Ones will support his claim when the time comes, when your master ends his." The person mostly dialogue to Bull, who grunted like said animal for a moment, and narrowed his eyes through his mask by the slight pause, and raised a gloved and clawed finger the person had in the air as if they forgot something, "That is, if things continue to when the one girl is old enough to be challenged by us, the few loyal to his cause and to the plans for her when the time comes, as after all… Her entire being is the key to his freedom, just like your master's very own lord. That is what the Lost Tablet's had to say on what she is, and few other things."
"You have them?" Bull quarried in hidden shock that the person didn't detect as they thought it was a quarried question, and shrugged, "Well, I wouldn't have been able to come to this verse alongside the others a few months prior if it wasn't for the girl's potential slowly coming along. As the Shadowed Prophecy is longer than you can think."
Bull just stood there and kept his firm gaze at the person, knowing now that there will be competition to try and use the child, when she was ready or more then capable to handle to what is to come, "But like you, my master wants to test her as well, and sending my hired yet dealt minion to test her mates… Proved an utter failure on my end, but did get me some unique readings at least to further our goals for backups."
"You may take your leave, but if we encounter each other again…" Bull began after the person's words with him summoning a unique double-bladed poll-ax with the theme designed to his general name in a unusual gothic-based design and with being mostly silver for the metal, and Latin and Greek mixed, and easily swung and knocked over without effort, several trees closeby in a energized perfect cut without effort or sound, and the person nodded in the warning, "Indeed, but you may not know what or whom you will be dealing with if we do meet again."
The person summoned a dark and dreadful vortex that went inwards with many clawed-like hands around the outer edge of the vortex itself, clawing to keep it open as the person stepped through the watery-like purplish entry, and it instantly closed behind the person within moments.
It seems our master will be furious to know that they have returned after nearly 5,000 years of having no access to our realmed verse… Bull thought warily for only a moment before shaking his head, and conjured his own vortex with thinking of how he was still going to test the one child himself, and it closed up behind him with being revealed, a glowing and hellish floating eyeball that looked demonic, was there, and then vanished in plain sight.
Well, that's it for part one of what I will post to complete this minor arc, as yes, I have at least three groups planned for this story to be the bad groups in years to come for Morgana and the others.
Just so you know, the groups came to me within my own dreams as such, so that is why there will be only three main bad-guy groups for this story. Of course, there will be one minor group that will be part of it, but won't occur until Morgana is 14 to 15 in age of course.
And if you are wondering if there will be crossover hints to my other works from this story to my others, or even my other works into this, then yes, that will happen in random times or moments; making the story-based fact of the Multiverse Theory, true, for my works only slightly as not all will have it, but some will.
Just hope you guys will like what will happen next chapter or two to this small arc, and hope that there will be more suggestions in the future for this, and my other stories as well as I do take them to heart.
