Narrator's POV

After Funneh, Lunar and the Spider Goons fought against the 'Not Mayor', they started their journey to find the others while searching for the pieces for the Elemental Staff of Might. Right now, they were in a forest taking shelter in a cave as it was raining.

Syntax and Huntsman both finished collecting firewood for the campfire as Lunar used her magic to start the fire. "Lunar, you shouldn't be using your magic! You'll drain yourself from using too much magic!" Syntax scolded Lunar, who rolled her eyes a little and says "Will you relax, would you? Beside you said don't use dark magic and I was using my regular and little magic to get a little fire going for us" and this made Syntax sigh in irritation before typing on his pad on his wrist.

Lunar giggled as Stringbean nuzzled against her cheek and while Ender was laying next to her as he closes his eyes for a nap. Spider Queen smiled softly at Lunar before noticing that Funneh wasn't with them and looked around before seeing her staring at the rain, Funneh has emotionless eyes as she continued staring at the rain before wincing a little as she looked at her right shoulder noticing a wound that she got during the fight with the 'Not Mayor'. Spider Queen saw this and frowned feeling worried before looking around and saw some plants nearby, Syntax noticed Spider Queen was signaling him to get the plant and give it to Funneh.

He nods before getting up and grabs the plant and walks over to Funneh as she saw this and gave him a questionable look. "This plant grew in the sewers where our lab was. It'll make you feel better" Syntax said before pouring the substance on his hand and then gently rubs it on Funneh's shoulder, making her wince a bit before relaxing as it did help soothe the pain. "Thanks.." Funneh said and Syntax nods before putting the plant down next to her and says "The plant will help" and he gets up and went back to the others as Funneh watches him and then she sighs before looking at the plant, grabs it and brings it close to her.

Meanwhile Somewhere Else

Funneh, Lunar, Stringbean, Ender and the Spider goons were all seen from inside a crystal ball as someone was watching them, more specifically at Lunar and the person cackles as their eyes were shadowed before saying with an evil grin "Looks like I found you, my traitorous Lena~" before looking over their shoulders and says "Bring her to me".

Later that Night

It was still raining and it started thundering while unknown to everyone, two shadowy figures were looking at the cave that the group was in and the two figures revealed to be two tall giant-like, inky-black creatures with yellow beady eyes as they started walking close to the cave.



Funneh stirred a little from her sleep at the lack of warmth since the campfire died out when she suddenly heard footsteps approaching the cave as Funneh saw a rock next to her moved a little and then she slowly got up, looked outside and quietly gasped, then suddenly someone shushed and she looked to her left see it was Syntax as he says "Heartless" and this made Funneh's eyes widened at the name as they both continued looking at the creatures that were coming close, near the cave.

"What do we do?" Funneh asked and Syntax replied "Wake the others" and with that, Funneh quickly woke up the others and informed them about the situation as they got up and started walking farther into the cave. Funneh gently wakes up Ender, but only for him to bark a little and Funneh quickly covered his muzzle and the noise caught the heartless' attention as they looked around, making Funneh hold her breath before sighing in relief when the heartless didn't come to the cave and continued looking around.

The group continued walking deeper into the cave while making sure not to make any noises, but when Strong Spider was helping Spider Queen he accidentally bumped into a stone pillar and hoped nothing would fall, but unfortunately a rock falls off and lands next to Huntsman, making him yelp and Lunar saw this and gasped and tried to get the rock as it rolls but didn't get catch it in time as it was now outside the cave. One of the heartless saw this and went near it examining the rock before slowly sticking its head inside the cave while looking around as it didn't notice Lunar, who stood low and stiff by this. Funneh was getting worried about Lunar as Spider Queen held her close feeling worried too and then the heartless slowly looked down and thankfully since it was dark inside the cave it didn't see that Lunar was in front of it before lighting strikes and it saw Lunar.

The heartless made a shrieking noise before it started charging towards Lunar, who immediately starts running towards the group as she shouts "Go, Go! Hurry!" and the second heartless followed behind and Lunar noticed that Ender was having a hard time getting up and started pushing him up while saying "Move it, Ender!" and Funneh immediately goes to help Ender up and manages to get him up and stretches her hand out to Lunar, but just before she can grab her sister's hand the heartless grabs Lunar's leg and starts pulling her down, making Lunar yell as she tries to grab onto something.

"LUNAR! LUNAR!"

Funneh and the others screamed in worry and horror as they watched the heartless dragging Lunar back down and away from them and then the other heartless comes over but just before either of them could do anything, something or someone let out a yell and with a great force, they send the two heartless falling down and when Lunar looks up, she sees a white-haired woman with two different earrings on and red face painted down the left side of her face and she's wielding a metallic sword made from black rocks.



"I'll hold them off! You go to your friends!" the mysterious woman says and Lunar nods before quickly getting up and starts running towards her friends, but stops and looks back to see that the mysterious woman was still fighting and noticed that she was having a bit of trouble and Lunar knew what to do. "I have to help her!" Lunar said and rushed back towards the woman, ignoring her sister and friends' call. The mysterious woman grunts as the two heartless were still attacking her and then one of them managed to catch her off-guard, making her slip and fell to the ground as she looks up with her eyes slightly widened and then one of the heartless stretches its arm trying to grab her, but to her shock and slight disbelief Lunar jumps in front of the mysterious woman, summons her staff and swats away its hand.

Lunar narrowed her eyes at the two heartless before closing them and then starts chanting a spell as her staff's crystal glows bright purple.

"The shield of protection, I carry it strong"

"No I'll wishes or trouble shall come along"

"You cannot harm me or weaken my soul"

"My light is my weapon and peace is my goal!"

And with that, Lunar snapped her eyes open with a glare as they were glowing bright purple and then a powerful blast came out from the staff, disintegrating the two heartless in the process.



Everyone was in shock and awe by this while the mysterious woman was stunned as Lunar pants heavily from the powerful spell that she just used before passing out as her eyes rolled back and falls backwards and the mysterious woman quickly caught Lunar in time. "Lunar!!!" Funneh exclaimed as she and the Spider Goons quickly ran towards the mysterious woman and Funneh looks at her sister in worry. "Is she gonna be okay?!" Funneh asked in worry and the mysterious woman looks at Funneh before saying "She's just exhausted from the amount of magic she used. But I have a place nearby where you all can rest" and then the group followed the mysterious woman out of the cave as she was carrying the unconscious Lunar.

Timeskip

Soon the sun was rising as the group was tired and exhausted from the walking and the lack of sleep since they were attacked last night and after a couple of minutes the group and the mysterious woman saw a shack up ahead as it looked like it belongs to a lumberjack.



"Is this your home?" Huntsman asked and the mysterious woman nods before saying "You all should rest. I'll tend to your sister and make something for you to regain your strength" and the group nods as they went inside while the mysterious woman took Lunar to a spare room as she went to make everyone a meal to eat and while getting supplies to help Lunar.

Later that Day

Lunar was laying on a bed and then she groaned while stirring a bit before slowly opening her eyes open and sits up while looking around. "W-Where am I?" Lunar muttered to herself as she starts looking around and then someone spoke.

"You are inside my home"

Lunar whipped her head around to see a woman coming in with a cup of tea in her hands as she says "Here. This will help regain your strength" and Lunar stares at the woman, feeling a little unsure before she gently took the cup, sniffs it and took a sip. "W-Wait... Where's my sister and my friends?!" Lunar began to panic as she looks around frantically, making the woman chuckle and replied "Do not worry, young witch. Your sister and your friends are resting" and this made Lunar sigh in relief before asking "I'm sorry, who are you exactly?".

"Oh, right, sorry. Descendant of Lena, my name is Adira" the woman known as Adira introduced herself. "Why did you help us back in the cave?" Lunar asked curiously and Adira simply said "Well, I couldn't let those heartless hurt you and your group" and the name confused Lunar as she asked "Heartless... Is that what they're called?" and this surprised Adira for a moment before she questioned "You have never heard of the heartless before?" and Lunar shook her head 'no' and then Adira began to explain to the young girl as she says "They are a race of villainous beings composed entirely of darkness and are born when a heart is consumed by it. In other words, the heartless are born from pure darkness itself".

This shocked and surprised Lunar as she asked "Really?" and Adira nods before saying "Now you should rest. I will let everyone know when food is done" and with that the woman leaves, leaving Lunar to rest.

Soon night was approaching as Adira sets down a bowl of soup as everyone was sitting down around the table just when Funneh comes in as she helps Lunar sit down at the table. "Who wants five flavor soup?" Adira asked and everyone raised their hands and then Adira looks at Funneh. Giving her a nod, Funneh situates her hands and uses waterbending to summon a globule of soup and fill each of their bowls as the streams of soup land gracefully into each of group's bowls. "Wait, how did you know that Funneh could waterbend?" Huntsman asked curiously and Adira gave a small smile and said "Well, I wouldn't be surprised. After all, she is Katara's descendant if I'm not mistaken" and this surprised everyone, including Funneh.

"You know Katara?" Funneh asked and this made Adira smile softly and says "I did. Along with the Mighty Five and Lady Irene herself" and this stunned everyone that she also knew Lady Irene and the Mighty Five. "How old are you, then?!" Syntax asked, only to receive his arm elbowed by Funneh. "I'm over hundreds of years old" Adira simply said, shocking everyone.

"WHAT?!?!"

Adira chuckled and says "I know. It's hard to believe" and then she looked serious before asking softly "Now I want to know... What are you all doing out here in the forest? This particular forest?" and everyone looked at each other before Lunar spoke "Well, we're looking for some items for the Elemental Staff of Might" and this confused Adira as she asked "And why are you trying to find some relics for that particular weapon?" and then Spider Queen says "To defeat Lady Bone Demon" and Adira's eyes widened for a moment before saying in disbelief as she picks up her bowl while she was about to wash it "That's impossible... She was sealed away years ago" and then Funneh said "Yeah, but DBK and his family accidentally freed her and then he was possessed and now she's taking over our home and now we need to build the Elemental Staff of Might and find both Lady Irene's Staff and the three rings of Samadhi".

Adira's bowl fell to the ground as it broke into pieces as she slowly turned and looked at the group as if she saw a ghost.



"W-What..." Adira managed to say before saying as if she was about to have a heart attack "Why... Who would have the idea to go after the three rings of Samadhi?!" and Strong Spider says "Well it was Monkey King's idea" and then Adira stiffed hearing that name again as she said "You mean... Sun Wukong?" and this surprised everyone as Lunar asked curiosity "You know Monkey King?" and Adira took a deep breath before saying "Yes. He was my... sworn brother" and this everyone looked shocked and surprised as they exclaimed again "WHAT?!".

Adira sweatdrops before sighing and says "I know it's a bit shocking to you all, but... That'll be a story for another time" and then she asked "What artifact are you looking for that might be in these forest?" and Lunar pulls out a book from her backpack and says while passing Adira "We're looking for a magic broomstick of the witch" and Adira takes the book and examines it before her eyes slightly widened before looking back at the group and says with seriousness in her voice "I know who's broom you need to look for and you might have a bit of problem trying to get this artifact".

"And why is that?" Spider Queen asked while raising an eyebrow in confusion and then Adira looks at everyone dead in the eye and says "Because the magic broomstick that you are looking for is the Wicked Witch of the West's broom and I happen to know where her castle is".

Timeskip-The Next Day

It was night-time and inside the Haunted Forest shows the gnarled face tree and a sign was next to it as it says 'Haunted Forest, Witches Castle, 1 mile and I'd turn back if were you'. Funneh, Lunar, Adira and the Spider Goons arrive at the haunted forest carrying weapons then stop to look at the sign and Syntax reads the sign "I'd turn back if I were you" and he nods his head and whirls around but only for the others to stop him as they shook their heads and then Ender tried growling, but they saw two owls perched on limb of tree.

Syntax tried to run away but Huntsman and Funneh firmly grab him and carry him forward as he cries and then they saw two vultures perched on limb of tree. "I believe there's spooks around here" Strong Spider says and this made Spider Queen say with an unamused tone "That's ridiculous! Spooks. That's silly" and Huntsman looks at her and asks "Don't you believe in spooks, My Queen?" and Spider Queen starts to say "No. Why only... Oh!" before she's suddenly lifted into the air as the others looked up as they started panicking while Adira was surprised for a moment before Spider Queen falls down and lands on the ground.

"My Queen/Spider Queen!!" The group exclaimed as they quickly ran to Spider Queen's side and helped her up with Funneh asking in concern "Are you all right?" and then Syntax starts chanting nervously "I do believe in spooks, I do believe in spooks, I do, I do, I do, I do" and this makes Adira look at him with an unamused look before sighing.

Meanwhile at the Mysterious Castle

A young mid-aged green skinned woman, who looks like a witch and her winged monkeys look at Syntax in the crystal ball.



She laughs in amusement before saying "You'll believe in more than that before I'm finished with you" and then she walks up to a winged monkey named 'Nikko' and says "Take your army to the Haunted Forest and bring me that girl and her snake. Do what you want with the others, but I want her alive and unharmed. They'll give no trouble I promised you that. I've sent a little insect on ahead to take flight out of them".

Then the woman laughs before adding "Take special care of those artifacts. I want those most of all. Now, fly! Fly! Bring me that girl and her artifacts! Fly! Fly! Fly!" and she watches at what almost looked like hundreds of flying monkeys as they started flying towards the Haunted Forest.

Back at the Haunted Forest

The winged monkeys approached the sky and everyone saw this as Funneh exclaimed in shock "What are those?!" and Adira's eyes widened in recognition before saying "It's The Wicked Witch Of The West's Flying Monkeys! Run!!" and everyone gets frightened except for Adira as they started running and the winged monkeys swoop down to the ground and start chasing after the group.

Lunar is being chased by two winged monkeys as she shouts "Help! Help! Help!" and somewhere, Adira is surrounded by winged monkeys as she exclaimed "Go away now!" but unfortunately one of them snatches her sword. "Help! Help! Oh!" Strong Spider says as the winged monkeys were attacking him while he was trying to get them off him. Funneh was following after Lunar and then she hears Lunar shouting "Funneh! Funneh! Help! Funneh!" and quickly managed to catch up, but only to see two of the winged monkeys grab her and she screams as they carry her off. "LUNAR!!!" Funneh screamed in horror before noticing that one winged monkey was about to pick up Ender as she shouts "Ender!!" and pushed him out of the way and only for her to get picked up as the winged monkey was helped by two more and in the process, Funneh dropped her water pouch as she exclaimed "No!!" and they carried her off as well and then all of the winged monkeys fly back to the Witch's castle.

Ender starts barking furiously before noticing Funneh's water pouch and goes up to it, making Ender whimper in sadness before looking up at where the winged monkeys flew off too and starts running in the direction hoping to find his owners and his snake buddy. Adira found her sword before looking around and saw the Spider Goons as Strong Spider was helping up Spider Queen and she runs over to them before saying "She's got them" and this made the Spider Goons look at her confused before Adira said in a serious tone "The Wicked Witch has both Lunar and Funneh" and this made Spider Queen shout in worry "No!!" and then Strong Spider says "Well, come on. We've got to find them!" and Adira says "I'll lead the way..." before they take off.

Meanwhile at the Wicked Witch's Castle

The Wicked Witch of the West was petting Stringbean mockingly as she says "What a nice little snake" before putting Stringbean in the basket and she turns to Lunar, who was scared and worried and says "And you, my dear. What an unexpected pleasure. It's so kind of you to visit me in my loneliness" and then Lunar asked fearfully "What are you gonna do with my palisman? Give her back to me!" and the Wicked Witch simply says "All in good time, my little pretty. All in good time" and Lunar starts begging her by saying "Oh, please give me back my palisman" and this makes the Wicked Witch say "Certainly, certainly, when you give me my little Lena's staff and her grimoire".

Lunar glanced at them before saying while tightening her grip on them "But I was told to not give them away" and the Wicked Witch says "Very well" before looking at Nikko and ordered "Throw that basket in the river and drown her and then kill the blue haired girl" and this made Lunar's eyes widened in shock and horror by this as she exclaimed "NO, NO!! No here, you can have the staff and grimoire, but give me back Stringbean and let my sister go!".

"That's a good little girl. I knew you'd see reason" the Wicked Witch says before she starts reaching out for the staff and the grimoire in Lunar's grasp, but gets zapped which causes her to scream in pain while Lunar was shocked by this and quickly says "Oh I'm sorry, I didn't do it. Can I still have my palisman and sister?" and the Wicked Witch yells "No! Fool that I am, I should have remembered. That brat cast a spell on them many years ago! Those artifacts will never be taken or passed down as long as you're alive" and this made Lunar froze.

"But that's not what's worrying me. It's how to do it. These things must be done delicately or you'll hurt the spell" the Wicked Witch says and then suddenly Stringbean pokes her head out of the basket, leaps out of the basket and runs/floats out the door and Lunar sees this as she shouts "Run, Stringbean, run!" and this caught both Nikko and the Wicked Witch's attention as she exclaimed "Catch her, you fool!" and Nikko chases after Stringbean as she runs/floats down the staircase and scampers over drawbridge as the Winkie guards throw spears at her and while Lunar encourages her from the window "Run, Stringbean, run! Run, Stringbean, run!" and seeing that her palisman got away, Lunar says happily with small tears "She got away! She got away!".

"Oh! Which is more that you will! Drat, you and your palisman! You've been more trouble to me than worth one way or another. But it'll soon be over now!" The Wicked Witch says exasperated before going over to a table, grabbed a large hourglass that has blood-red sand and shows Lunar as she says "Do you see that? That's how much longer you've got to be alive. It isn't long, my pretty".



Lunar was on the verge of tears while the Wicked Witch adds "It isn't long! I can't wait forever to get those shoes! And once the time is up, I'll kill that blue-haired brat first and then it'll be your time!" and with that, she stalks away and locks Lunar in the tower room. Lunar stares at the hourglass and then she went next to the crystal ball and for the first time in a while, Lunar starts to cry as she sits down.

"I'm frightened. I'm frightened, Macaque! I'm frightened" Lunar cried out and as she cries the image of Bai He appears in the crystal ball as she starts to say in worry and fear "Mommy! Mommy! Where are you? It's me. It's Bai He. I'm trying to find you. Where are you?" and this caught Lunar's attention as she was shocked and immediately looked at the crystal ball and starts to say "I'm here in the forest, Bai He. I'm locked up in the Witch's castle and I'm trying to get back and save you, sweetie!" and then the image of Bai He starts to disappear and Lunar starts begging fearfully, "No, Bai He, don't go away! I'm frightened! Come back! Come back!" and then suddenly an image of the Wicked Witch appears in the crystal ball.

"'Bai He, Bai He! Come back!' I'll give you Bai He, my pretty!" The Wicked Witch mocks before she starts cackling evilly and the image of the Witch disappears, making Lunar shocked and continues to cry as the sand in the hourglass comes down.

Meanwhile in the Castle

Two guards were on the lookout in a tower while unknown to them, Ender managed to get past the security and sneaked through and inside the castle. Ender starts sniffing around before catching a scent and immediately starts following after it, soon he sees the Wicked Witch walking off somewhere and this made Ender growl before quickly quietly followed after her. Soon he saw her walking toward the dungeon with Nikko, the Wicked Witch pulls out a key and unlocks the door before going in and inside revealed to be Funneh as she was in chains and was also looking down.



( ^Pretend these are chains^ )

Ender found a hole as it was big enough for him to get through and out without getting caught by the Wicked Witch as she walks up to Funneh and starts speaking "Oh, come now, little Katara. Why so melancholy? A wondrous future lies before you; you, the destined maiden of a charming fairy tale come true" and then Ender appeared through a hole of the dungeon. The Wicked Witch uses her magic to depict the following as she starts to say "Behold, the Lotus Kingdom in the Celestial Realm, and in yonder topmost tower, dreaming of his true love, the Third Lotus Prince Nezha. But see the gracious whim of fate. Why, 'tis the same blue haired maid, who won the heart of our noble prince including the Third Dragon Prince. She is indeed most wondrous fair. Blue of the shimmering ocean in her hair, lips that shame the pink, pink lotus. In ageless sleep she finds repose. The years roll by, but a hundred years to a steadfast heart are 'bout a day. And now, the gates of rebirth part, and the maiden is free to go her way. Off she rides to her own destiny..." and in the Wicked Witch's imagery, Katara is shown to be reborn as Funneh, who hugs the two Princes as their eyes were shadowed as her voice drips with sarcasm.

"... A valiant figure, the same and fierce to find her true love and prove that "true love" conquers all... And only to find out that they have love for the maiden, since she's only their precious Katara's reincarnation!"

Funneh immediately looked up with a glare before struggling in her chains and then was lifted off the ground, making her grunt in pain as the chains tightened around her but couldn't scream since her mouth was gagged and this made the Wicked Witch laugh. Ender growled before quickly hiding and then the Wicked Witch looked at Nikko and said "Come, my pet. Let us leave our noble maiden with these happy thoughts" before chuckling and Funneh starts to struggle again as she was still in the air and watches as the Wicked Witch leaves.

Funneh kept struggling until she stopped before remembering her words as the Wicked Witch's words echoes through her head 'And only to find out that they have love for the maiden, since she's only their precious Katara's reincarnation!' and this made Funneh go into deep thought. 'I-It can't be true... They can't only have feelings for me if I'm only Katara's descendant. . . . . . . . . . R-Right?' and then tears started to form in Funneh's eyes as she thought to herself 'W-What if it's true. . . ? W-What if I get heartbroken again?' and then closes her eyes as the tears fell down to the floor.

Then suddenly Funneh heard something coming from the walls, making her look over at the hole and narrowed her eyes for a moment before they went wide when she was Ender coming out and barks quietly at her. "Mhm!" Funneh muffled in stunned and relief to see her dog before Ender pulls out the water pouch and managed to open it with his mouth. Even though Funneh's mouth was gagged, she was grinning before motioning her finger as the water comes from her pouch and starts waterbending to free herself as she broke the chains and lands down on the ground on her feet before opening out her arms and Ender jumps down and Funneh catches him. "Good boy, Ender" Funneh praised and gave Ender a kiss on the head, making him wag his tail. "Ender... Do you think Nezha and Ao Bing only like me because... I'm Katara's reincarnation?" Funneh asked softly and Ender shakes his head as a 'no' before pulling something from Funneh's pocket as it was a folded paper.

Funneh opens it and was surprised to see what it was as it revealed to an old photograph of Nezha and Ao Bing getting along as they both chatted while having tea.



Funneh then gets confused on how this got in her pocket before noticing a small note attached to it and reads it.

If you ever feel lonely or down, look at this photo and hope this will bring that beautiful smile on your face.

- ❄️Ao Bing and Nezha🪷

Funneh was stunned for a moment before looking at Ender, who was wagging his tail indicating that he was right and then Funneh looks back at the photo before a small smile appeared along with a small blush on her face. "Thanks guys..." Funneh said before a determined look appeared on her face, stands up, puts the photo back in her pocket and looks down at Ender before saying "Let's get outta here, boy".

Meanwhile Somewhere in the Castle

The Spider Goons and Adira had successfully made it inside the castle after beating up and disguising themselves as a couple of the Winkie guards and got in without being suspicious and then stopped following the Winkie guards as they began to think. "Where do we go now?" Spider Queen asked Adira and Strong Spider agreed as he said "Yeah" and then Stringbean, who was on Adira's shoulder hiss and leads the way upstairs.

"There!" Huntsman points before the group starts running upstairs to the tower and Stringbean shows them the locked door. "Wait! We better make sure. Lunar, are you in there?" Syntax called out and then Adira says "It's us!" and inside, Lunar gasped before quickly running to the door as she said "Yes! It's me! She's locked me in!" and then Huntsman says "Listen, fellas. It's her. We gotta get her out! Open this door!" and Lunar says, sounding terrified "Oh, hurry! Please hurry!" and back looks at the hourglass to see that time was running out as she adds "The hourglass is almost empty!".

"Stand back!" Adira said to the group before she starts breaking the door with her sword and just as the hourglass runs out, the door was finally broken and Lunar comes out and Strong Spider gives Stringbean to Lunar as she starts to say happily and in relief "Oh, Stringbean! Stringbean! Oh, Huntsman!" and then she embraces the group before Adira says to them "Hurry, we've got no time to lose! We still need to find your sister and dog!".

They started running down the stairs, but then the doors suddenly close. The group whipped around when they heard the Wicked Witch cackling and saw her on the stairway balcony as she says "Going so soon? I wouldn't hear of it. Why, my little party's just beginning" and then Strong Spider starts to say nervously "Trapped. Trapped like mice...rats" and the Wicked Witch cackles as the Winkie guards arrive with their spears and Adira growled at them while pointing her sword and Spider Queen holds Lunar closely to her. The Wicked Witch giggled before saying "That's right. Don't hurt them right away. We'll let them think about it a little first" before she cackles once again while Syntax looks at the chandelier which gives him the idea. Then the Wicked Witch shrieks and throws the hourglass to the floor below, which it bursts into flames and is destroyed. Using this distraction, Syntax cuts the rope with Adira's sword which causes the chandelier to land on the Winkie guards, trapping them.

"Seize them! Seize them!" Adira quickly leads the group away as they ran for their lives. "Stop them, you fools stop them! Seize them! Seize them!" The Wicked Witch exclaims as she and along with Nikko run with the guards then Adira and the group go up the stairs. "There they go! Now we've got them! Half of you go this way, half of you go that way. Hurry! Hurry!" The Wicked Witch ordered as she and her henchmen split up.

While running away from the Wicked Witch, Adira looks at Syntax and says "Okay. I gotta be honest. I know we just met, but uh, I'm not a big fan of people touching me" and Spider Queen looks at Adira in disbelief before exclaiming "And You're Just Telling Us This Now When We Might Get Killed?!?!" and then suddenly someone called out to them.

"Guys, over here!"

They stopped and turned around as they were immediately relieved to see that it was Funneh and Ender as she says "Hurry!" and the group quickly went towards Funneh as she leads them somewhere outside as they ran down the stairs and along the parapets of the castle. They stopped for a moment to look around before Strong Spider asked "Where do we go now?" and then Syntax says "This way. Come on!" and they started running off but then suddenly they saw the Winkie guards come down the stairs, making Lunar and Funneh scream. "Back! Back!" Syntax exclaimed as the group quickly went back and while on the other side, half of the Winkie guards come down as well. Funneh, Lunar and the Spider Goons screamed as the Winkie guards corner them with their spears trapping them once again.

The Wicked Witch arrives along with Nikko as she cackles before saying "Well! Ring around the rosie! A pocket full of spears! Thought you'd be pretty foxy, didn't you? Well, the last to go will see the first six to go before her! And her mangy little palisman and dog too!" and the group cringe in fear, then the Wicked Witch gets the flames with her broomstick and looks at Syntax and asks "How about a little fire, spider boy?" and sets his arm on fire and cackles. This made the group scream in worry while Syntax exclaimed as he was frightened "Help! I'm burning! I'm burning!" and then Lunar noticed a bucket of water nearby and quickly grabbed it, but the Wicked Witch saw this and shouts "Don't throw that water!" but Lunar tosses the water to put out the flame as it also splashes on the Wicked Witch's face, which causes her to scream as this startled everyone.

"You cursed brat! Look what you've done!" The Wicked Witch exclaimed and then she began to melt while she continued shouting "I'm melting! Melting! Oh, what a world! What a world! Who would have thought a good little girl like you could destroy my beautiful wickedness? Look out! Look out! I'm going" and her cries fade out as everyone looked down before Ender sniffs her black cloak and hat the only remaining parts and Nikko sees that the Wicked Witch is dead. Lunar couldn't help but let out a single tear and quickly wiped it away when the Winkie Guard Leader looks at Lunar and says to her in shock "She's... She's dead, you killed her".

"I didn't mean to kill her, really I didn't. It's just that he was on fire" Lunar says apologizing before the Winkie Guard leader looks at the rest of the Winkie guards and says "Hail to Lunar! The Wicked Witch is dead!" before he and then Winkie guards got down on their knees and hailed together "Hail! Hail to Lunar! The Wicked Witch is dead!" and this surprised the group before Lunar smiled knowing that the Winkie guards were free, but then she remembered and says "The broom" and looks at the Winkie guard leader and asked "May we have it?".

The Winkie Guard Leader picks up the defunct broomstick and gives it to her as he says gratefully "Please. And take it with you" and Lunar takes the broomstick and says "Oh, thank you so much!" before looking at the group and exclaimed "Now we can go find the others to create the Elemental Staff of Might and tell everyone the Wicked Witch is dead!" and this made the Winkie Guards all said in unison together "The Wicked Witch is dead!".

But then suddenly the broomstick starts glowing, shocking and surprising everyone before Lunar's body glowed too before suddenly now standing in Lunar's place was Lena the first Witch Goddess herself as she had a gentle smile. "Princess Lena!" The Winkie Guards and the Winkie Guard Leader said in shock before quickly bowing along with Nikko while the group was stunned to speak and Adira was shocked the most. "Arise, my soldiers" Lena says and all the Winkie Guards including Nikko stood up and then Lena spoke in the most caring tone.

"For so long, my Mother has nothing but treated you all with cruelty and used you as her tools. I have always hated the way my Mother had treated you all for hundreds of years and I've just had enough of her. But have no fear as I, Princess Lena of the West hereby set you all free to go your own way"

All the Winkie Guards and Nikko cheered for their lost deceased princess's order and then Lena looks at the group and gave a small smile before looking at Adira, who was stunned. "It is good to see you again, Adira. I hope life will be better for you, go with my descendant's group and maybe you'll be reunited with your precious one" and then Lena looks at Spider Queen, who stiffed a bit before relaxing when Lena says "Please take care of my descendant as if she was your own child" and Spider Queen looked stunned before slowly nodding and finally Lena looks at Funneh and walks up to her before pulling out a small brown book and says "Take this. This will help you and your siblings unlock the next set of your abilities. Take care, my sister's descendant" before she slowly disappears before changing back to Lunar.

"Uh... What just happened?" Lunar asked in confusion before Funneh looks at her with a smile and says "Don't worry. We better get going".

Timeskip

The group had made it back to Adira's home and they got the staff they needed before noticing Adira had a small bag with her. "You're coming with us?" Funneh asked and Adira looked at her and replied "Yes. After all, like Lena said I need to find my precious one" and before Lunar could ask, Adira quickly said "That'll be a story for another time" and then soon the group started their journey to find the rest of the gang and Krew.

Meanwhile unknown to them, someone was watching from above as on the cliff revealed to be a beautiful woman with long, rich rare red hair and blue eyes and she's wearing a pure pink gown.



She smiles softly when she sees Lunar and says "Take care, my little starshine" before her body glows and transforms into a pink bubble and floats away. Back with the group, Funneh couldn't stop thinking about what Lena before pulling out the book and stares at it while Lena's words spoke in her mind 'Take this. This will help you and your siblings unlock the next set of your abilities' and this made Funneh go into deep thought again.

'Does Lena mean... We have more powers than we thought we did?'
