We're back on chapter ten.
WARNING: I DO NOT OWN SWAN PRINCESS OR ANY OF THE CHARACTERS.
At the harbour, where Maximilian and Uberta's ship was set for the former king and queen of Chamberg for their return from the council meeting. Chamberlain and Bridget were waited for them to arrive.
Maximilian and Uberta walked to the captain.
"Thank you for your service, Captain." Uberta said.
"My pleasure, Your Majesty." the captain said. "I will be with you in this war against that sorceress all the way."
"That'll be grateful, Captain." Maximilian said. "We'll be back once we've discovered Odile's Island."
"And I'll be here for you to need my help, sir." the captain said.
Maximilian and Uberta leaves the ship and walked to the carriage.
"How did it go, Your Majesties?" Chamberlain asked.
"The Council has agreed to help us defeat Odile." Maximilian said.
"We're lucky they didn't refuse." Uberta said. "With our kingdoms unite, Odile won't be a match to all of us.
"Great news. Now we've got allies with us to fight against that evil sorceress." Chamberlain said.
"Yeah. We give Little Naughty what's coming to her." Bridget said.
"In the meantime, we should go back to Swan Lake and tell Derek and Odette the good news." Maximilian said.
"Speaking of which, we've came as we've heard about the ogre attack." Uberta said. "I hope Derek, Odette and Alise are okay."
Maximilian and Uberta gets on the carriage, and they head back to Swan Lake.
Meanwhile, back at Swan Lake castle, Odette was sitting on a chair, recovering from Odile's nightmare spell last night. She was drinking a cup of water to calm her nerve.
"Odile's getting worse." Derek said. "And she just crossed the line."
"Oui, zhe evil witch is scaring our kingdom." Jean-Bob said. "She must be stopped. Remind me, why am I so brave right now?"
"She tried to kill me last night when I was dreaming. All I saw was Rothbart, Clavius and Zelda coming back from the dead to get their revenge. I-I can't handle this much stress."
Derek and Alise hugged Odette to comfort her from her nightmares.
"Mom, you're afraid. It's okay. We can end this evil." Alise said.
Derek smiled at Odette.
"Alise is right, Odette. The only way to confront is fear. You were brave to find a way to break the spell that turned you into a swan. You've risked your life to life to save me from Clavius' traps and Zelda, you've had the Christmas spirit and used it to save me and defeat Rothbart again. Not to mention you rescued Alise from the Forbidden Arts. You are brave enough to stop Odile's terror."
"And zhat's a brave Swan Princess." Jean-Bob said.
Odette rubbed her tear off her face, smiling at their family's encouragement.
"Thank you." Odette said. "That's the most nicest thing I've heard."
"You'll have no worry of this." Derek said.
"I know. I know we can stop the Forbidden Arts once and for all." Odette said.
Lord Rogers and Bromley entered the room.
"Your parents are here. They've got good news." Rogers said.
Later, in the hall, the whole family gathered for the good news Uberta and Maximilian had about the Council's meeting.
"Mom, Dad, how did it go with the Council?" Derek asked.
"The Council's on our side. Their armies will aid us against Odile." Maximilian said.
"Now, we've got enough to win this war." Uberta said.
"This is great news." Alise said.
"HA! Time to beat a witch." Jean-Bob said.
"See, Odette, this is our lucky day." Derek said.
"I think you may be right." Odette said. "We have faith in this one."
"I know we do." Derek said.
"Kingdoms unite to defeat an evil sorceress and an evil entity. This can bring history to the whole world." Bromley said.
"Easy for you to say." Rogers said sarcastically to Bromley's words.
"And we've heard about the ogre attack." Uberta said. "We've came as soon as we heard."
"We've handled that." Derek said.
"Now, have you received news of Odile's hideout yet?" Maximilian said.
"Not yet. We still haven't got a word from Whizzer and Scully yet. I hope they're all right." Odette said.
"Let's hope they are." Derek said.
"What do we do now?" Alise asked.
"Now, we wait for Scully and Whizzer to come back. And if they come back here, we'll know the location of Odile's hideout." Derek said.
"What's zhe worse zhat could happen?" Jean-Bob wondered.
Then there was an explosion of electricity. The family covered their eyes to shield from the energy. When the energy vanished, Odile rise from the energy with her dress.
"Well, here I am." she said. "Tell me something. Is this dress too soon for the ball?"
Derek picked up his sword and pointed it to Odile.
"What do you want, Odile?!" he demanded.
"What else? Revenge." Odile said. "Did you know how much pain you've caused me?"
Derek lowered his sword. "I'm sorry you've lost your father, but he was trying to kill Odette."
"That was his idea." Odile admitted that. "But, do you how it felt to lost a father?"
Odette knew how that felt when her father William was killed by Odile's father Rothbart.
"And yet, you've killed two more people that were close to me in spite him betraying them. Clavius was like family to me, I loved him like an uncle. Zelda… Boy, she was crazy about me like a mother figure. I know Pop drove them underground for the power of the Forbidden Arts, but they were family to me. And you took them from me."
"Odile, the Forbidden Arts is using you. I know he's in you." Odette begged. "Fight him."
"You're right, I am in here." Odile's voice changed into the Forbidden Arts with her green and yellow eyes. "We are one, and we like it. We've bonded with one purpose: Godhood."
"So, that's why you needed my blood. It was some spell for you to fuse with the Forbidden Arts." Odette said.
"Yeah, kid. Forby wasn't using me; we're made for each other." Odile said.
"And together, Odile the Witch-Crafter and the Forbidden Arts are one as the God of Pure Evil. And the Age of Despair shall be… Forever!" said the combined voices of Odile and the Forbidden Arts.
The group were all scared of Odile's transformation into a great powerful being of evil.
"You took my father from me. Now, I'm taking this girl you've adopted, Derek and Odette."
Odile pointed her finger at Alise and blasted her, making her vanished.
"ALISE!" the family shouted in worry.
"Now, you two lovebirds, if you ever want to see that little girl again, you'll have to come to Skull Island alone. No armies, and no tricks." Odile demanded.
She laughed loudly in the room before she zapped the ground to cause an electrical explosion, and she disappeared.
The group were all worried that Alise was stolen by Odile, even Odette was scared.
"We have to get her back." Odette said.
"And we will. Even if we have to go alone for Alise." Derek said.
Then, Scully and Whizzer flew in the hall.
"Scully! Whizzer!" Odette was glad to see them.
"Odile's setting up a trap for you, Derek and Odette." Whizzer said.
"Even if you'll surrender yourselves, she'll kill the three of you." Scully said.
"Then what can we do?" Rogers asked. "She's so powerful."
"She's bonded with the Forbidden Arts, is she? You destroy Odile, you'll destroy the Forbidden Arts once and for all." Scully said.
"And that's what we'll do." Derek determined.
"Reality check: Odile has Alise, and she wants no armies with you." Jean-Bob said.
"Maybe not. But, we may not need the army to attack Odile." Odette said. "I've got an idea."
Chapter eleven will be coming soon.
