Morgana was trying to hide within a cave while free of her bindings as the man left her and summoned a creature of sorts to what he deemed, to see if she survived, and quietly with her hands to her mouth to not make a sound, heard the echoing gurgles of the monster coming and passing by her hiding spot.
Upon her arrival to this unknown isle, Morgana for once felt weak and powerless, and she even nabbed a strange-looking coin that was made of solid gold, and represents (not known to her) to be a skull version of the Aztec Sun Stone.
She even tried summoning Xal'atath and failed, to which she was wincing from the weapon complaints loudly with feeling Vanessa soothing the weapon within her.
The creature, to mention it, was fused dark magic of some kind with it representing a knightly skeleton of sorts with it being mixed with a Cthulhu-based monster with dark as night skin; hence the octopus-like tentacles from the back with barb hooks, and the armor was mainly dull silver and black metal, and dull golden accents.
Morgana soon gently gripped her tail as she felt her wings hug her prone form, and stiffened a gasp at seeing one of the tentacles scrapping around her spot a few moments before hearing a gurgled grunt as the creature moved on, and winced at hearing it easily toss loose rocks against walls or in the water to try and find her.
Morgana sighed before yelping in place as she was soon wrapped tightly and pulled by those very tentacles and was staring face-to-face with the monster.
Morgana while struggling, was gripping the coin as not known to her, it failed to do something and attracted the attention of specific entities at sensing the weaker aspects of herself, and the monster let out a stinky, gargled roar right at her face with seeing a mouth full of fangs from tilting the helm and bending the head slightly.
Tears fell from Morgana as she closed her eyes and expected to be eaten by this thing… For only to open them when she dropped and saw the monster backed up several feet and against a wall by being blasted to blind it temporarily, and was soon pulled via her hand away and in speedy moments, to the outside with hearing the beast following them.
Once outside of the cave, it turned out she was on an isle of sorts at night with the full moon out she blinked at seeing the girl that saved her from the beast wasn't Zone-Tan like she thought, but it was someone else.
She was a sixteen to eighteen-year-old female around 154cm (5 feet) tall, with a large B-Cup chest, and she had bluish-black waist-length hair within a ponytail with wide blue eyes, and an angular-delicate looking face. She was also fair or closer to being pale-skinned and wore mainly black knee-high socks with black slip-on shoes, a beige long sleeve shirt, and a brown-skirted Japanese School Uniform with a cyan ribbon.
This was Natsumi Sakuraue, and she ran from a former friend turned monster after having his way with her by also, after moments of fleeing, was shot with an unexpected greenish dart of sorts by a mysterious cloaked man, and she was told by another that she and a select few, after being sucked into a voided place from an earth-based destructive storm, survived their world's destruction and was offered a choice: Either to use this chance to live on with her life or to eventually wander the void in self-pity and loneliness.
She chose the first and the next thing she knew, she was told about her being different then the infected people back in her former realm, and if she had children, would be considered a bloodline instead of a T-Virus; even finding out that soon she would become a modified version of said monsters due to that deceased male's actions and restoring what she lost as well from him, and was told the boy that she liked wasn't at all her destined one, AKA, her Soulmate.
Then she was sent to a vortex for who knows how long after touching the person's strange-looking sword, and she ended up saving Morgana from the beast on the isle with a perplexed energy ball she shot at the monster.
Anyways, back to the matter at hand.
Both Morgana and Natsumi were horrified by witnessing the monster once out, glowed a dark aura and grew thrice its size in mere moments before roaring at them from the spacious coastal landscape not knowing what to do, Natsumi grabbed Morgana and both ignored their thudding hearts from briefly touching each other, as she and the child ran from the pursuit of the creature.
They ran around the coast, within the caves, and back several times to realize that this thing was trying to tire them out, and it was working as both Natsumi and Morgana panted with them thankfully hiding behind a large enough rock with the older girl glancing and seeing the beast ran by and was in fits of rage, and they stiffened as Morgana sneezed the male the beast paused and resumed running from it once again.
Only a mere few feet, Morgana tripped over her tail and landed on her side with a wince of pain from her arm and left wing as Natsumi was ahead of her quickly realizing it, stopped and turns to run back to only get slammed by the beast's tentacles to another rock nearby and slammed her back, hard, and couldn't move as she could only watch there in paralyzed fear like Morgana was, at the monster hissing in cruel dark laughter of sorts in gurgles, and simply stood there.
The creature then spoke in a strange dialect yet they could somehow hear it within their minds in a strange yet loud whisper as well, "You have tried and failed to outrun your Fate. Now it is time to end the chase, and be devoured!"
Morgana struggled in the creature's fully wrapped grip while watching it open its maw very large to terrify the child at the many upon many rows of teeth it showed, and Natsumi struggled to get up from the pain to try and stop this as with Morgana thinking this was the end as just as it was about to shove her down into its maw, it tossed her carelessly after getting blasted back-first by a familiar energy blast.
Morgana saw Natsumi narrowing her eyes at feeling an unexpected feeling of rivalry, as Zone-Tan with glaring glowing yellow orbs at the beast at recognizing it, and declared loudly with her simply pointing at the creature in a challenge, "You are not prepared to what ya going to face, Octopus! You're going down!"
The beast growled lowly at being dubbed that and slammed the ground a few times before running and hammering with the fists on the ground to her like a raging rhino, and she easily smirked and sidestepped to the right and then to the left, and was easily dodging the charge attacks from utter rage at the demoness with Morgana shakily getting up, and cautiously moved to where Natsumi was to try and help her up at this point.
The beast soon got tired of charging her and leaped into the air, and Zone-Tan shielded herself when it sent miasma-based energy orbs around her as not known to her, the man secretly stayed behind and scowled to himself at this predicament, and soon got an idea after gazing at the duo watching the demoness owning his summoned creature.
He chuckled before leaving into a dark vortex at snapping his fingers, as he left Morgana turned at hearing the snap and shrugged with Natsumi was perplexed why the child's wings refused to let her go, or the brief and unexpected hot flashes she was having now and then and without realizing that she was also sweating only slightly.
With Zone-Tan, she cackled as she was letting her frustrations out from not only finally getting out of the blasted voided area and even dealing with the creatures within, but trying to prevent her 'Other' from coming out as well, as she was close to that point it was going to occur.
Now and then said side for her tends to be sane most of the time or tends to be enraged to the point her sanity would be crazy when free and let's say that isn't something that you would want to occur without much of a choice as nothing would stop the wrath unleashed.
And it didn't help that it was close to said point via Morgana's constant kidnappings or worse within a single day.
Anyways, the demoness herself soon avoided black lasers from the eyes and a combo of practically jumping like a leaping frog for a few moments in a complete circle and sending minor energy balls back at the armor it wore and saw it didn't even flinch yet still caused damage.
She was slammed to the ground unexpectedly but the startling shriek Morgana let out when Natsumi was sent at Zone-Tan and into a few stray rocks hitting her back, hard, by something unexpected as well seemingly aiding the beast she was facing, if the glint of the eyes it had the demoness herself noticed had anything to say about it, as she saw it had Morgana in a firm hold.
While placing Natsumi to the side and shakily standing, and growling out at mainly this outcome, she got a good look at the newer creature as the beast, leaps, and lands on its back creating tendrils of darkness as a harness, and Morgana being held in this thing's tendrils.
It was a perfected mix of a Land Shark, Octopus, and an Eel with blackened and ashen-grey colored tiger stripes to its skin, and a dull-white underside alongside a shell-less lobster tail with a daggered top and sides that looked like it could pinch deadly; like an Earwig Bug's tail. It has a few feet below its jaw, a strange symbol. It had tendrils around the back up to six with one holding Morgana as mentioned, and from the head to the tail itself was a harness placed on it for the beast to easily sit on it like a noble steed. It had dull-silvery razor-bladed fins on the sides, however, up to four in total, and two barnacle-encrusted cannons attached on the main seat for the beast to easily shoot whatever it will shoot, to anything or anyone.
Zone-Tan blinked like Morgana, secretly, a health bar appeared above both duo beasts and revealed the name of these things, in a slight comedic sense, Blibber Fish and Sir Krakos.
(Play: /FC02szNAZMQ)
The duo roared as Zone-Tan saw a barrier separating herself and the knocked-out Natsumi as she quickly summoned her weapon before rolling away in a speedy blur as Sir Krakos forced his mount to shoot two dark-like cannonballs that sparked electricity that to get her to avoid, were hitting the barrier and were bouncing like they were bouncy balls, and after a while with going in a full circle of Sir Krakos sending another laser beam from its eyes, she got a perfect shot to send both cannonballs back at him.
They were direct hits as Sir Krakos shook its head and roared at her with seeing an aura grow on the rider and mount, and was once again dodging while sending in-timed hacks and energy balls at the exposed parts the cannon did to the mount, from the darkly charged rampage the beast orders the aquatic mount to do, before running in a complete circle to try and run her over.
Morgana was being muffled and felt weaker as this thing was secretly siphoning her power unknown to the demoness, and Zone-Tan managed to dodge the immense maw the mount has as it managed to chomp and tried to get freed by the immense rock lodged in the jaws, and Sir Krakos trying to free his ride with him sending two more cannon blasts aimed at the demoness.
Zone-Tan managed to dodge one and used her weapon like a baseball bat in precise timing and sent it at the back of the beast's head to turn its helm around to blind it, and the other cannonball soon bounced and she sent that one right at the beast again to deal massive damage to make it roar at her blindly in rage before sending dark flame blasts at the mount, making it equally gargle in a muffled roar as she was soon attacking the exposed weakness of one of three pearl-like orbs attached to the underside of its tail.
After at least several moments, the Mount crushed the rock easily, and nearly swiped the demoness with its sharp points that glows a familiar color, and she began to do this same tactic again, and again, and again before she had to dodge the mount sending an erupting blast from the maw with the aid of Sir Krakos.
She wasn't phased as she tossed her weapon into the air before her eyes glowed crimson, and opened her mouth to let out a crimson-purple fused beam after saving up energy to do so, and began to fight with each other's beams.
For a few moments, it looked like the duo creatures would have won, but Zone-Tan yelled as she channeled more and managed to override it and Sir Krakos jumped while nabbing Morgana in time to not get obliterated as the beam also continued out to sea and luckily missed the isle itself.
Zone-Tan smirked devilishly at the beast before seeing the situation and stilled in utter shock with Morgana yelling as she was swallowed by Sir Krakos, and it paused before holding its stomach and yelling as overwhelming power exceeded its frame and even saw the burning remains of the Blibber Fish became darkness and was also absorbed into it, and with a darkened flash, it changed to make the demoness wary for true reasons.
It was even bigger with the armor showing hints of the mount itself, and two extra sets of tentacles behind its back with a see-through clear orb that contained a knocked-out Morgana that Zone-Tan saw, and it had a blade in its right hand that was made of a mix of bones from a shark with metal, and the design was that to a jagged eel with the hilt showing the head as an ornament.
The improved Sir Kratos stomped on the ground and roared rather unsettling as it jabbed the weapon into the ground and Zone-Tan soon maneuvered herself every which way and tried to dodge the speedy pulsating and electric waves of dark energy for a minute, and once the blade was raised, the beast soon leaped into the air and with elasticity, sent dark-infused barbed tentacles at her spots with the last creating a pool of darkness that brought forth even stranger creature up to five resembling skeletal and dark infused fish she had to dodge and hack away into black smoke once defeated.
She had to dodge the blades Sir Krakos swung at her several times while dealing with the shadowed entities it summoned when she defeated the last one, she quickly blocked her weapon against its blades as sparks flew and making them both try and shove the other away until she got the upper hand, and managed to blast the front of Sir Krakos' chest plate armor and sent him a few several yards away from her and it was knocked out as with its maw fully open… A glowing orb of darkness with glowing eyes similar to the creature came forth and began to randomly zip around as she figured things quickly, and began chasing and hack-in-slashing the misty thing several times and even sending blasts of her orbed attacks.
The thing then zoomed hastily back into the maw of Sir Krakos and the creature trembled before becoming active once again and gave out a loud garbled roar with its arms and tentacles to the sides as it charged at her in a rush, and kept missing before resuming its tactics once again, and again, and again.
After the sixth time, it did let out that roar but it had a glare she didn't like before leaping into the air and began sending from the tips of its tentacles, exploding orbs of darkness she managed to make a brief barrier for herself to protect her body, and then dodged Sir Krakos' landing where she once stood and they were soon clashing blades once again.
After that, it roared and began doing that same attack three more times before she managed to once again try and prevent the creature to dominate her from pressing forward, and shoved it with it being sent further away as it once again let out that orb creature.
She did deal as much damage as possible to it before it went right back to the body, and Sir Krakos shook and trembled as a dark aura formed around its frame, and grew slightly bigger before stunning the demoness herself at witnessing it toss the blades it wielded into the air before its maw went cartoonishly wide to easily devour them both, and it grew even more and its claws grew sharper alongside seeing that at each tip of the tentacles it has, the familiar sight of the former swords' blades was shown, and roared at her with renewed vigor before charging wildly at her then.
Zone-Tan was for once overwhelmed as it seemed like Sir Krakos was empowered more than normal and seeing as to why, it was draining Morgana before she hid her pain of being stabbed several times in rapid succession, wrapped up in moments, and was tossed into the air.
Sir Kratos made her lose her weapon as it fell downwards from being thrown, and began to jab her with the bladed tentacles to make her scream out with her being weakened as each strike didn't attempt to kill her, it was to weaken her before they were soon face-to-face, and she was easily punched hard in speeds unseen to the ground to cause a crater.
She was about to get up before yelling in constant agony from the creature then stomping continually on her to slightly increase the crater each time with debris going randomly all over.
Zone-Tan managed to jab the exposed left foot of Sir Krakos as it yelled in the gargled roaring of unexpected pain as it landed on its behind to try and pull the sharp debris of stone from its foot, before getting blasted by a weaker version of her energy attacks at the beast.
Zone-Tan grew worried with seeing this as the beast enraged further and held back the urge to clutch her heart for some unusual reason at witnessing the unconscious form of Morgana screeching soundlessly within the prison she was within by many jolts of energy-absorbing bolts coursing through her as Sir Krakos roared powerfully with energy easily showing all around its body and vanished and kept appearing in constant assault to try and truly harm the demoness this time.
(Pause or finish video)
Zone-Tan was feeling overwhelmed by this empowered creature and knew that if she didn't do something, she felt that Morgana would be taken or overused, and she didn't even know why she was desiring to prevent this from happening.
It was then while feeling the pain, she blinked at seeing she was within her one place of sanctuary, her studio she recalled that she had to give up venturing out to the realms long ago, and saw a shaded entity with being a smoky black and red-figure, and narrowed her orbs then.
Its form was human but lithe and jagged like broken glass, pitch black except for a thin crimson outline. It still had Zone-Tan's eyes; demonic red with the grey sclera, but its maw was wide and sharp. Six tentacles extended from the base of its spine, and a fiery ponytail flowed behind its head. Its hands and digitigrade feet ended with claws, and it towered over her, with the feet making it appear to be eight feet tall, yet it was easily six foot two.
"You know you need me." The Entity stated firmly in a deeper and similar voice to Zone-Tan herself, as it had a minor echoed tone as well, as it crossed its arms and swayed its tentacles lazily back and forth with a look of expectations.
"You would be out of control if I let you take over." Zone-Tan warily stated weakly to only make the entity shrug as if it was true but puzzled her by its words as it gave her a look that she didn't understand for once, "Not if we were with her. The one that is trapped inside that thing made from summoned Darkness and mixed monsters, rolled into one."
"What does Mary have to do with you?" Zone-Tan questioned the entity that was within her and was perplexed by the soft and self-humored chuckle it gave her with a knowing gleam within its eyes before she was feeling worse, if seeing her skin paling more than normal, and sighed with a firm look that made the entity give a satisfied, and crazed grin on its face by her words then, "I will let you out if only you don't harm Mary or anyone else, only that thing."
"Wouldn't dream of it, Love…" the entity replied calmly with the crazed face still, and stretched for a few moments before cackling as it laughed crazily and shouted with Zone-Tan being the one at the backseat as it took over, after so long, "Wah-Ha-Ha-Ha! It's showtime!"
In the real world, Zone-Tan's body was being severely abused and battered by Sir Krakos and was sent several yards away from it after thinking it defeated her, turned, and saw its master and comrade come from a vortex in the distance and was about to head over before the beast stilled, and slowly turned at sensing amounts of unfamiliar energy where the demoness was.
She was slowly standing up from her spot as they saw an unusual crimson red and black aura-like energy that felt like nothing the duo ever sensed before, with sparks of electricity around her prone form as she soon yelled in place with the aura growing denser and denser as it instantly covered her entire body in a shell that made the beast warily back up, and the duo that was there to conceal themselves at sensing something has changed.
Once the barrier began to dissolve… In its place was the very entity "Herself" as her head was shown to be lowered with the flaming ponytail casually moving slightly from the brief wind that blew to the right, and she slowly began to swerve back and forth with her body spasming every few seconds in a way it was unsettling before sharply, in an instant, looking right at the beast within her sights, and an unnatural and devilish sharp grin instantly graced her face.
Minor energy was then shown once again around her body for a few brief moments in several spurts, before letting out a dark cackle with a head tilt, and declaring crazily, "You have something of ours… And we want it back!"
(Play: /gQ5gtInauiI)
Zone-Tan vanished before appearing right before Sir Krakos and quickly wrapped the beast in her six tentacles before vanishing and appearing, as she kept on repeatedly clawing and kicking the creature with minor energy bursts.
She then let out a demonic and echoed laugh as she hurled Sir Krakos like it was nothing further into the sky and vanished before landing on the palms of her adjusted feet and gazing crazily at the creature with a crazed smile.
Zone-Tan then easily extended her tentacles to the closest things available and leaped back easily as Sir Krakos was falling back first within the air, and then launched herself like a speeding bullet with her claws extended as she was hoping to slice the entity with ease to free what she knew was the child in question, but was being at being startled when the beast easily grabbed her, flipped her around, and forced itself to get heavier and crashed into the ground.
Sir Krakos let out a gargled chuckle to anger Zone-Tan and it was then its turn to be startled as she easily hefted to its increased weight that was around seventy tons, hurled it through several trees, and pursued it with the duo revealing themselves before gazing at each other, and sensing things, left-back into a vortex they summoned and closed behind them.
It was Sir Krakos' turn to be fleeing and sending its attacks at the empowered demoness as Zone-Tan snarled to herself before chasing after her prey through thicker woods and even damaging trees here and there, and some stray jutting rocks as her pursuit soon came to a halt from a large clearing that, thankfully, was miles and miles away from any living thing or city to resume their fight.
She snarled again from seeing the creature jolted Morgana within her prison within its body and forcing her to give it more power and charged at her then with the tentacles it has as she channeled some of her energy within hers and we're going ham at each other, and some of her attacks exposing some of Sir Krakos' armor to anger it.
They were then running in complete circles and sending missing blasts of tainted versus demonic energy blasts at each other with some attacks, hitting them and exposing some more of the armor.
Eventually, Sir Krakos roared enraged once again after fully exposing the head to reveal a blackened Kraken-like face with four glowing amber orbs as it then shrank the back tentacles back into its body, and resummoned its one weapon that was adjusted as a bladed polearm, swirled it, and then slammed it into the ground with Zone-Tan dodging speeding blasts of randomly sent dark energy blasts at her locations.
Zone-Tan managed to find a checkpoint and leaped into the air before extending her second tentacles with her ponytail swaying, right at the exposed spot closest to its heart to make it roar in shocking agony with it opening its maw, and once again she crazily grinned as a more massive creature of smoke came forth and formed into a floating orb with Sir Krakos' eyes, and began to pursue the speedy essence and kept slashing and blasting it when it was sighted, and chased it back to the regenerated husk it was using and resumed fighting it again.
They were at each other's necks as Zone-Tan had to deal with this tactic two more times before the creature roared with the orb shivering and startling the empowered demoness as it was reabsorbing the husk body of Sir Krakos, and dropping the crystal ball of a prison that Morgana was in before it pulsates, and shifted to a blackened and heavily scaled Kraken of sorts with those same eyes.
It roared at the demoness to which she wasn't phased at sensing it was lower than her in power, but still angered or even enraged her at sensing most of Morgana's own was within its core, and decided to fight it and she charged at the revealed beast with it trying to block her with miasma infused tentacles she sliced away and was immune to the dissolved solution of acid at some broken trees and debris trying to get to the center of what was labeled as Shadow Krakos.
Shadow Krakos made her let out disgust in moments from getting splattered by ink she easily dissolved as it seems the beast could levitate in the air she had to pursue the creature once again and dodge acidic blobs aimed at her dodging spots.
After the seventh throw, the creature gargled in rage before swirling into the air as Zone-Tan began dodging darts of black spikes it sent out in rows that soon exploded into minor bursts of dark energy she luckily avoided as in turn, she used her tentacles to easily shove herself off the ground to soon land on its supposed face and cackled as she jabbed her empowered and sharpened claws to make it howl several times before being sent off it and perfectly into the ground.
Zone-Tan then had to do this tactic three more times before it roared at her with literal darkness emitting from the maw underneath it and soon swirled up into the sky to get her guarded and project a shield by an unexpected beam that was gradually making a growing crater and with her struggling in place.
She then yelled in a roar after dismissing her barrier and with her soon sending an infused crimson, black, and dark purple beam of her power from her maw back to make a stand-off with each other's attack.
Back and forth both constant beams went with Zone-Tan seeing the beast emitting more smokes and wisps of darkness, and she pushed it further as she roared crazily in an echo of dominance from sending more of her power into the beam to make Shadow Krakos widen its four eyes before roaring in agony as it was fully engulfed by her attack, and major wisps of energy instantly fled to where Morgana was, and darkness exploded from the creature as it vaporized with leaving behind a vanishing blackened heart.
(Stop/Finish Music)
Zone-Tan feeling overwhelmed by her power roared in a way, said creature in his verse sneezed while sleeping underwater, and her tentacles beating on the ground with her head raised crazily- "Zee!" An unexpected voice cried out to stun the demoness as Morgana shoved her with what strength she had left away from the spot in time to avoid getting severely shocked by blue and black lightning that came from the sky and didn't see a cloaked demonic figure curse before vanishing into smoke.
Zone-Tan regained her senses as she began changing back to herself as her empowered body reverted to what she looked like normal, and rushed over to Morgana with wide eyes and ignored the enraged emotions her Other Half was soon emitting at witnessing this.
"Why?" Zone-Tan could only say to the child as besides one other long ago, she was never risked to be saved as Morgana coughed out with a small smile before she could answer, Zone-Tan froze and turned to see Death herself soon at the scene and cursed to herself at this sight, as she missed the person who stole The Bolt from said God she was recently informed about a few hours ago.
Before Zone could question Death, she blinked at seeing a glowing red and golden line between her and Morgana to make the deathly entity herself sigh in irritation yet shoved the demoness to the side with her seeing she snapped without looking, a strange bottle she was forcing Morgana to drink.
"What are you doing to her?!" Zone-Tan demanded Death with narrowed eyes and was debating letting her Other Half out again as Morgana passed out after drinking the contents.
"Rejuvenation to her body and power to bring it back, as that abomination was meant to drain her fully to make it easier to extract her soul from her body." Death only stated firmly to make the demoness blink in utter surprise from that.
"She was close to death by whoever designed that monster?" Zone-Tan questioned firmly to Death with her fighting the urge to stop Death from carrying Morgana with ease as the entity only gave the demoness a look before responding to it, "And nearly died again to save you from dying by The Bolt of that one God's that was recently stolen, and one of the only few things that could weaken you enough to kill you, Zonalitris."
The demoness narrowed her orbs with her arms crossed and firmly told her then, despite both her and her Other Half stunned by what they just found out, "The name is Zone or Zone-Tan, got it memorized? Not that name I was given back then."
"A random name that is, and not your true one as your true past is a mystery itself?" Death counters to get the demoness to growl something to herself to amuse her as while she carried Morgana to where she knew where Basil lives, she informed her then to startle the demoness the truth as to why she was overprotective of the child.
It was a few days later that Morgana was within Basil's Home once more, and with Zone-Tan as well as Death was already gone.
Ziana managed to defeat Ratigan and a cloaked figure managed to nab the rat before his eventual demise by her weapon and escaped with a thick and brief miasma of smoke once the rat was back to normal. So he was declared dead, as to the terms of not seeing anything else from the Rat Professor at all.
Ziana then left with her giving a letter to Zone-Tan to only open when she was alone and declared that Morgana would be having a visit at some point with others, and even aided in healing her to be still weak but awake and alert at least.
Natsumi was also taken by Ziana after seeing something Morgana and Zone-Tan didn't, to hopefully amuse her 'Boss' once she brought her to her home, of future things coming for the child.
Mentioning as well, parts of Basil's Home have changed as to were in place of Ratigan's portrait, there is a newspaper clipping with a picture of both Basil and Dawson bowing before the Mouse Queen, apparently being knighted for their bravery and with The Headline reading 'Queen Honours Detective', along with the subheadlines 'Queen Praises Detective Basil, Medal to be Given', and 'Time Runs Out for Ratigan', confirming that Ratigan did not survive the plunge as to what they informed the Queen's Court itself and with her Majesty understanding and more by even gifting a small box to Morgana to know that she knew magic as well, all along.
The box was old yet very stable looking and seemed to have been made within the dark ages, and was written in Latin of her full name by none-other then than Merlin's writing, and said to only open it once she turned ten.
Morgana with the help of Zone-Tan, made the odd coin she found into a necklace with the string being from an entity the demoness herself refused to let out or explain, but the threads of it are very strong and hard to break and even added random beads the child picked out as well around the sides to go well with her other necklace to now have two.
She was currently the only one besides Basil, Doctor Dawson, Olivia, and her father as she felt she was leaving soon, and wanted to fully say goodbye to them with her holding inside her pocket, a gift she obtained thanks to her finding out of sheer luck, some currency to purchase her custom order for her departing friend as by her words, she was heading to America with Mr. Flaversham.
Zone-Tan was getting something for the road… Whatever that meant to Morgana by her secretive words, and was nearby the door and merely waiting.
Dawson, as mentioned, was dressed to leave as well as he states in awe to Basil, "To be thanked by the Queen herself! Oh, how thrilling, eh, Basil?" Basil places Ratigan's dinner bell on the mantle as a memory of this case. "All in a day's work, Doctor."
"Oh Dr. Dawson, you were wonderful!" Olivia hugged the old mouse as Dawson chuckled bashfully, and Mr. Flaversham agreed with a warm smile and stated, "Indeed." He looks at his pocket watch and notices the time. "Oh my, we're late to catch our train. Come along, Olivia."
"Yes, Father," Olivia answers quietly as it was a very bittersweet moment as Olivia embraces the mouse who saved her life, as well as her father. "Goodbye, Basil," and with her soon sniffing out, "I-I'll never forget you."
Basil leans down and puts his hands on her shoulders and smiles. "Nor I you, Miss…" He can't help but repeat this running gag one last time of mispronouncing her last name, "Miss Flangerhanger." Olivia stares for a moment, then shakes her head, a smile on her face.
Dawson chuckled and answered for her with a small smile, "Whatever." And hugged Olvia again as she told him 'Goodbye', as he responded in kind before being confused by the small boxed and wrapped gift that Morgana gave her, and hugged her friend wordlessly before letting go reluctantly as Olivia walked over to the front door, and turned again. "Goodbye." She whispered out lastly as she left with her father.
"Well, um…" Basil sniffles out, "Not a bad little girl." Dawson puts on his hat and prepares to leave. "Not at all." The Doctor agreed as he then sighed out, "Well, it's time I was on my way too."
Basil was rather startled by that, "But, um… I thought…" Dawson adjusted his jacket, "Well, the case is over. Mmm… Perhaps it's… Well, perhaps it's best I found my living quarters." Basil still stutters out, "But-" a knock at the door interrupts the moment between the two as he was perplexed then at knowing it was the demoness to fetch Morgana, "Oh, now who can that be?"
Dawson opens the door and a young lady mouse is standing outside, clearly in search of help, and hesitatingly asks, "I-Is this the home of the famous Basil of Baker Street?" Dawson nods and replies Indeed it is, Miss. You look as if you're in some trouble."
At his look of concern, the Lady Mouse commences crying and wiping at her eyes. "Oh, I am! I am!" Dawson then patted her briefly in small comfort with Morgana only watching on, "Then, you've come to precisely the right place."
Basil seizes the moment to reveal what he was trying to say earlier, and puts his arm around Dawson. "Ah, allow me to introduce my trusted associate, Dr. Dawson, with whom I do all my cases. Isn't that right, Doctor?"
Dawson seems surprised at first but then understands what Basil is asking him. They shake hands. "What? What? Oh, yes. Yes! By all means."
The sentimental moment lingers for a bit, then Basil gets straight to business. "As you can see, Dawson, this young lady has just arrived from the Hampstead district and is troubled about the disappearance of an emerald ring missing from the third finger of her right hand. Now, tell me your story and, pray, be precise."
After the lady mouse told her her story, she was told by them that they were on the case to get hugs by her and left the home and not too long, Zone-Tan showed herself with a raised eyebrow at the two male mice getting around with Morgana sighing as they all halted in place as a vortex appeared to let Morgana tell them then, "It's time for me to go."
"Go? Go where?" Dawson asked in concern by the mood Morgana was letting off with Basil figuring out what she meant by witnessing what The Mouse Queen briefly mentioned to understand, "Back home where Big Sis and the others are waiting for me, as my time here is finished."
"Well, it has been a pleasure seeing you off then, Miss Potter," Basil tells the child warmly in farewell as Zone-Tan felt awkward waiting by the vortex as Morgana gently shook both Basil's and Dawson's hands with them being perplexed by her necklace glowing and startled them as they moved a few inches away, as a trunk appeared and opened for the child.
Peering into it, Morgana didn't understand why but she saw several blades and more inside and she grabbed a decent-looking one that at the hilt, showed a design similar to a silvery wolf with amber gemstones eyes, and the blade is made of some type of black metal as a medium one-handed fancy saber of sorts and gave it to Basil while she gave Doctor Dawson a silver and copper-lined pocket watch that startled him as his name was written on it, and the outer shell showing a blue and red gemmed biblical cross (with the blue being the center and outer edge).
The chest then vanished back into Morgana's necklace and wordlessly shrugged as she waved hesitantly back at the duo of male mice and left with Zone-Tan into the vortex.
Well, that was rather exciting, don't you all think? Do note it will be even better when the special chapter or chapters of a specific event, will be even more and leaving it at that.
I was informed that Zone-Tan was not only able to become as she was, but she also has another look I liked as well. So the red form is when she hasn't merged with her demonic self, and the other I liked will be, but she will gain new abilities and some of her old, mixed. And… I also found out she does have a Twitch Channel and is also virtually married to a vampiress, whoops. But don't worry, the Shared Soulmates Option will be up within this fic and if you have any suggestions to pair some of Morgana's current girl's with, I am open to suggestions.
I would also like to inform you that I am working on my other fics, but also, developing ones that will take time and patients to post (when I think I have enough chapters that are) of new eventual Fics as mentioned in the Announcement, and plan to ask for help in reworking three specific Fics as I may have overdone them: Pinkie and her Half-Sister, Ranamon's Little Girl, and Lucy and the Sirens. I plan to keep their details and whatnot, but I want to try and refresh them with better and perfectly placed outcomes instead of randomness. So if anyone is interested, give me a DM or Email Shout as well.
Lastly, I would like to state that there will be hints of things you probably all didn't get at in the chapter, and the upcoming special chapter(s) as well for this fic, and hope you can guess correctly as after the special event… Will be a movie that was overdue in the making, and was constantly being bombarded to me via DM: Strange Magic, and after that, the Lion King.
Now onto the Numbers:
1: I wanted her outfit to be bonded to her and figured maybe it could adjust itself and more, that way, and I did how Venom tends to become any outfit it gets ideally from its host.
2: Yes, I do plan to add my OC eventually, but figured since people have been wondering why the Ex-Keeper herself was named that way, as she was there back then aiding them in number 3 and more, back then, before she fully took her position seriously and ended up as she was. Sarah, herself won't probably be introduced within the Fic itself until maybe Hogwarts Years? Still debating on it.
3: I figured maybe hints of a long-forgotten war itself, would get your minds churning as my OC: Aeroza himself, was part of it as it kept going on even as he/she/they became as they are all those eons ago. The Ex-Keeper, Sarah, was sent back alongside others through time as to how she knows of it, and also forwards to the point of a particular war with a "Key". And also to let you know of a possible new threat during Morgana's eventual Hogwarts Years as well, besides the Pale-Faced Pedo- I mean Voldemort, hehe.
4: What Hades meant by the Hidden Truth is based somewhat similar to "Number 2 & 3", but more, as it can detail the existence of other realms and worlds related to Earth itself, with the past chapters hinting at that at times as well. So truthfully, that prob won't occur until Morgana herself is within her actual mid-teens or older. So atm, it will be strictly a Disney and HP X-Over for quite some time, and with hints during Hogwarts years and one of the chapters, of things to come.
5: Yes, if you all guessed correctly, that book Morgana took was based on the Movie and Franchise itself: The Hobbit, as hints.
6: Yes, that is an actual name for a creature in the game: Subnautica, itself. I needed ideas and wanted to combine creatures, and figured I would make use of mixing with that for the OC monster.
7: Yes, that is a Kingdom Hearts Three Boss written in detail, and there will be an explanation as to why she is in the Fic, in due time.
8: Yes, another creature but this time, based within World of Warcraft itself as a design to that OC monster in the making.
9: I figured as a reminder as to what Morgana would sound like when she gets with age to that point, as that form she became within the Frozen Arc and mentioned in this, is when she is fully done with her Secondary Racial Puberty as currently, she is going through her first. Hence the egg-laying and more mentioned within past chapters as the Royals tend to mature faster in both sets, in growing years as they become full-fledged adults.
10: Yes, it is another reference of a Game itself you and everyone probably reading this would all know, FNAF (Five Nights at Freddy's) as it is going to be mentioned in some upcoming chapters to a few fics of mine, but not going to spoil as to which ones.
11: I figured I can explain better of sorts to my idea as to why Ratigan became as he was, as Abuse by any means can alter a person's mind at times when growing up, and abuse is wrong by many rights rather they all be either Humane or Animalistic.
Other than that, I hoped you enjoyed the Detective Arc itself, and hope you can wait for the special chapter or chapters of something special for Morgana.
