we have one more chapter to go before we conclude this book of this series. I know it's gonna be a three-book series because there is no way I can put everything in one book next year we will start more of the counterpart which theories with the second book will end thank you for enjoying this series. I really will give this ending a big ending in the next chapter about how I am excited about the story ending and starting a new one but now this is the second to last chapter in the story. Thank you.

all right, this chapter is about the fighting. The final stand the final five fight between all our heroes is going to join in on this fight, too the fight for their kingdom against Rothbart, pretending this world, and the next, and protecting the world of dreams.

And finally putting to bed the evil sorcerer who's played Odette's family for years OK this is a big one it is showdown time.

The curse is broken finally we are now human or at least he was now human, and now we are together forever.

it was caused for celebration, but not yet. We still had things to take care of.

What is the final battle in the final stand against Rothbart?

And vanishing him forever making sure he'll never return to bother us ever again and curses again because I would not want this to be on my following descendants so I took the fight outside away from all the people OK Odette said it's time for the final battle between you, all of your magic users And Miss Lily already and Rothbart as well yeah, we're gonna determine who's the most magical fastest better magic user out of all of us, he said.

OK go I heard her say who's gonna go first against him I'll go I said I'll try to slow them down a bit. You little princess don't underestimate me. I'm also a counterpart. My powers are stronger than you think.

So what is your magic over? He asked taunting me, dreams, and time I said my powers and my family's powers come from the great father time. It was a shock to everyone to know that that's where my powers came from. I thought Luther Luther said I thought your powers came from no they did not come from Alvin. I said they did not come from the time manipulator he lied to you.

I use my magic a sprinkle sleeping sand to see if I can slow down Rothbart with my magic it worked for a time. Do you think you can put me to sleep with that? He said yes and then I'm gonna freeze you at least for a temporary time I said it I used my time magic off and stood still then he overcame that I unfroze time. Now your turn fine I called upon the power of the forbidden arts.

Your power is more sorcery than anything else I said, adults are magic he can warp things and change things. That's all he can do right then he turns into the great animal. All right I can deal with this.

The others were there to watch. It was just a battle between me, and my love everyone held their breath as I finished it, but not doing too well I finished him the battle wasn't gonna be very long, hopefully, but I did slow him down and weaken him a little, as he stopped to catch his breath, I did the same had enough Rothbart I said am I too much for you to handle you are a powerful princess I give you that he said no wonder I didn't want to underestimate you in that curse you say the man you loved not just once but three times I said 33 actually, he said me out of the three times let's do I say twice now then not show that I am capable of anything I agree I guess I shouldn't have underestimated you like I said princess you're not like Odette no I said I'm not.

Maybe it should've been you I should've been proceeding instead of her now I should've sabotaged your romantic gestures. I should've made you my prisoner of love.

I'm nobody's a prisoner I said finding out my final blow to give to him not to kill him but to get him still weak enough you don't underestimate me you don't underestimate a dream maker I said I can make your dreams come true or I can make your nightmares come true I said, my powers are strong Mother may be dead, but that doesn't mean my powers are.

A sprinkled stream sand, but it missed him. How can you just avoid my dream sand that ain't fair this fight isn't fair princess well, I am not gonna let you win over me or my love so this is how you're gonna be slow down for now once I am done I called it a draw and one I walked off the court. He hugged me. He did great I know it's your turn. You have more magic than me so you're better off at this than I am and you have your ultimate level spells right of course I did OK with your aura thanks for the potion. I don't know if it'll work but I'll try.

be careful, I will. He says he hugged and kissed my lips before he went inside and met Rothbart face-to-face.

It's now my turn he said well the prince gets to fight me now you were so powerless when I turned you into a swan, and now you see more powerful you underestimated a Timecrest even Riley learned not to do that. He said now you're gonna pay.

You can fire the first shot if you like, but don't transfer me to another animal please fine encountered. How did Riley's training?

It pays off.

no much are you real power froze time with the freezing spell. Freezing, rough, fart harder than I did. Punching him knocking him over then unfreezing him helped cause I froze time just like Lily. I can do that, but I have different powers than her. I have power over elements. I don't think you can stand against me. I was the master of three elements on my masters' council and Alisha you have no chance cheered from the sidelines, jumping up and down the master has arrived the master of time, wind, and earth Ashton was next to me watching spellbound as well.

Brother is amazing. Isn't he a nodded I agree his powers are off the charts and he hadn't even started his magic yet. I'm sorry what about not trusting him in the beginning it's not your fault as I said sides. Everything is good now.

I'm surprised Scarlet doesn't want to fight I guess she just doesn't want to right now and it's not a tag team so right it's not tag team so you can't interfere even though my force poles could probably push him across this mesh Arena and my gravity well could probably pull him off the ground. I wouldn't doubt it, I said.

I didn't know he was capable of that kind of power set Odette and estimated my own descendent. She said I almost arrested it a Timecrest myself. Well, he's amazing. He hasn't even shown off his real power yet. Scarlet said next to us wait till he sees what he can do with his actual full power, it's it's crazy we still watched most of us already knew how capable magically he was on his feet as he fought back apart through hit after head at the moment dodging, he flipped over freezing every time freezing Rothbart, trying to slow them down even more, but then unfreezing him so we can have an advantage.

then we heard him call now is the show of how much of a mage I am he said you don't underestimate a master of three elements Levitas He said Levitas Altimus, like air. He says he turned into a gust of wind and flew past him. The gust was strong enough to push Rothbart off the office feet.

you know me back, I give you credit boy that's not all riven up and having another aura posture ready he was drunk at the time mounting himself I need to drink and or potion real quick what an aura potion I explained it regains their strength, so you need to pause so he can drink one fine I need to drink water anyway Rothbart said, pausing and drinking time was resumed afterward time back in hollered and good luck she said to Luther thanks read again.

I also cheered go and go I said, Win this thing for us.

I will I heard him say.

I'm gonna win this for you, Lily I smiled. Don't forget your earth spells I hollered.

Thanks, I won't. I heard him holler back.

I'm ready to go I get to start again I get to start this one. I heard him say practicing his knuckles a bit. Oh, that sounded painful. I heard it say he's OK he's resilient I said.

The guests also were watching the fight from the balconies and other places cheering on our champion as he read it up, ready to kick Rothbart but again Rothbart was standing there. Are you going to hit me? Are you just gonna stand there?

No, I'm gonna move I heard him say.

then I heard gravitas Altimus calcium Rich he ran and beat raw, farting with his hands. He grabbed him with his hands and steel as hard as steel and grabbed parts hands one in each, he said, gravitas Altimus calcium poor Rothbart screen, that his hands broke instantly. How did you his gravitas spells can break bones? He only broke your hands. If he's at his full power he could break your head I said powerful well, I didn't expect that out of a little boy like you I'm not a little boy I'm a man he said I'm 29 at least I think so, I could break your skull if I wanted but I'm not gonna, but I am gonna break every bone in your body except your head at least your arms and legs at least I could just weighed my hands and broke your bones that way what fun would that be?

you, coward, restore my bones now no with a wave of his hand, he said, gravitas Altimus, calcium and poor, and his legs broke falling to the ground. I don't think you can get up. This was an ultimate-level spell. You were down for the count now I can just beat you, I would break your head but like I said, I don't want to do that you would die instantly for one.

running up his strength like he did when he destroyed the Vald, Dorian Empire he said Levitas Altimus, moving wind, moving air he said spending a barrier around Rothbart, pulling him close to him, and slamming him against the wall as the impacted we heard it, his body hitting the stone we gassed as rough part hit the ground now that I'm done with that. I am going to break your head now. Lily cover your eyes. No, I said I wanted to watch the end of this. You're drenched in blood now that's why I told you to cover your eyes.

no, I've seen you do worse I want to watch this right then but I will get myself cleaned up afterwards. Deal your good clothes is ruined. They can be cleaned. Don't worry. I'm not wearing my good clothes. I'm wearing my cloak. I smiled at the thought, he's wearing his battle cloak, he wouldn't dare wear his good clothes in a fight go ahead I said Win this for me win this for every win this for your family. Give him that final blow that Derek couldn't give shadow Odette I will. I'll make sure he doesn't or another breath.

and that he'll never return

but before I do, I need an aura potion here I said, giving it to him, his hands, or Markeley we're not the only ones bloody he drank the potion I did take a good look at him. He looked awful. Luckily, he took his good clothes off and kept them inside the castle and came out in his battle clothes also was done to see him this way the last time you saw him covered like this was when he destroyed the Vald Dorians this time it was different who was defending a Kina instead of destroying one both of us cheered.

The guards were also mesmerized by seeing him fight like this the prince hushed and settled that yes he should. This is for our family and never thought we'd have someone this powerful in our family.

He walked slowly over the other side of the Brattle wall. We're Rothbart laid I would tell you to vanish, but I think you deserve to die. This isn't the only person I have killed in my time I've killed the Vald Dorians I killed the lieutenant. I've also had hard people like my sibling and king, Janice, now it's your turn. You've harmed me now I harm you back.

I will make sure you stay gone for good you will not harm me or my family neither will yours harm us ever again.

putting his hand at his head at Rafat's head, he said, my love said gravitas, Altimus calcium, we watched as Rothbart's body contorted, breaking in all pieces even his head which hit the ground hard shattered. His goal broke. Luckily, he was already undead mostly, so it didn't matter really, but it was bloody and blood covered him.

Odette walked into the arena, which was covered in blood, madam I heard him say please I need to make sure he's dead all right then he's dead all right you can stop. Yes, I will take care of the body look at this place cleaned up you go get cleaned up you don't wanna greet your princess like this, of course not we have one Rothbard is dead.

The torment is over cheers, and ringing, and he goes to get cleaned up. I went back into the castle. The blood mess was cleaned up as well. He had a few broken hands was broken and he was on my own, of course, gravitas Altimus calcium repair, amazing as he got cleaned up I waited in the parlor, the ball was over obviously it wasn't completely over but I waited in the parlor anyway I had to get changed and cleaned up.

he returned all fresh and clean and new clothes, too bound to me, taking my hand when we walked back into the ballroom can we continue? Yes, we may.

we continued to dance until the night until the sun had already risen but we continued until we retired Odette said it was overtime to get some rest and we went to bed even though it was early morning we were tired we needed rest I wanted to be with you he said, taking my hand we can't be in the same room yet. I said we're not married.

right almost forgot I didn't want to OK? See you later today see you I said. sleep well I will and you too we kissed I felt more beautiful than ever before I went to my room and drained about him and went to sleep.

It'll be a good way to end. This story at least this book of the series brutally nasty and is not what I was expecting, but I hope you enjoy it.
