FLASHBACK

When Ramsay and Lilia stood behind inside Marcelos' tent before the attack on Axrax, Lilia said to Ramsay ''listen to me carefully, Ramsay. This is our chance to escape''.

''Escape?'' Ramsay asked Lilia.

''I promise your friends to get you away from Marcelos and I think now is the only chance we have got to run away from Marcelos'' said Lilia.

''I don't think I wanna run away from Master'' said Ramsay.

''I understand. You are only saying this because you are loyal to him but you promise to trust me. I need you to trust me. Can you do that?'' asked Lilia.

''Yes, I can'' said Ramsay.

''Our only chance will be once Marcelos, the others, and the armies attack Axrax. Once they attack we will use that chance to escape. Do you understand?'' said Lilia.

''Yes, I do'' said Ramsay.

When Marcelos, Zussorader, Philip, and Marcelos' armies attacked the soldiers at the west gate and battlement, Ramsay and Lilia stayed behind and didn't join the attack. Immediately Marcelos, the others, and Marcelos' armies attacked the Axrax soldiers, Ramsay and Lilia got down from their phoenixes and run as back to the camp. Upon getting back to the camp, Ramsay and Lilia picked what they thought they will be needing for their journey, and Marcelos' dark crystal then ran away.

Immediately Marcelos and his armies also breached the gate, Marcelos sent some of his armies to the north, south, and east gate to prevent anyone in Axrax from escaping because he plans to end them all today.

PRESENT

Immediately the great King, the Kings, ministers, Zussorender, lord Emmanuel, the generals, the head wizards, and the armies left to stop Marcelos and his armies, Noah carry princess Esther on his shoulder then he, Hawk, the princes, the princesses, the head guard, and the people made their way to the palace library.

The great King, his subjects, and the armies met Marcelos and his armies on their rides in the city as they marched toward the palace. King Raynold, his subjects, and the armies, and Marcelos and his armies stood a few distances from each other ready to attack each other, then King Raynold looked around for Ramsay among Marcelos' armies and couldn't see him and he was relieved that his son wasn't there. Marcelos said to King Raynold ''seeing that you are still alive means you are really strong than I thought''.

''Do you think I will easily die because of an evil like you? I have prepared for a day like this and I don't think am destined to die without taking as much as I can with me'' said King Raynold to Marcelos.

''Judging from your health I don't think you can take much but let's see how many you can with you'' said Marcelos with a smile to King Raynold, then Marcelos attacked Axrians together with his armies.

As Marcelos and his armies ran toward them, King Raynold said out loud to his subjects and his armies ''we die today, let's not die cowards. Let's show these monsters we are more stubborn than they are. Let's show them hell before we leave to join our ancestors'', then his subjects and the armies cheered angrily before they attacked Marcelos and his armies with the great King.

Upon getting to the library, Noah, the princes, the princesses, Hawk, the head guard, and the people met the librarians and Master Henry waiting for them. Master Henry and the librarians took the princes, the princesses, Hawk, the head guard, and the people to the secret library where the princes, the princesses, the head guard, and Hawk all truly see the twin of the golden bow and arrow but not all the people can enter the secret library because the secret library was just a small room so some had to wait in the library. The head guard took the twin golden bow and arrow since the great King gifted it to him while Noah looks for the hidden way out of Axrax in the secret library which was said to exist in the secret library by princess Esther to the great King.

In the battle, Marcelos ordered Bane not to breathe her flame on the Axrains so his armies and he could have much fun before Marcelos got down from Bane and pick up the sword of a dead Axrax soldier and fought in the battle with the sword. Marcelos' armies fought with anger for losing some of them to the wall magical barrier and the joy of being to be able to kill again in the battle. The Marcs, Zussorader, and Philip even got down from their phoenixes and attacked since they have been missing the battle. The phoenixes and Bane were left to attack Axrax's armies on their own.

Even though King Raynold was weak and was hurting from his wound and the black magic in him that was killing him slowly, King Raynold still fought like he was okay killing Marcelos' armies ruthlessly and angrily. The great King's subjects and the armies also fought like they were possessed even though they knew they already lost the war and will end up dead.

Marcelos was surprised by how the Axrians and their great King fought making them worthy opponents for his armies but no matter what they did he and his armies will later win.

The princes, the princesses, Hawk, and the head guard watched as Noah continue to find the hidden way out of Axrax with his magic and he seems to be unable to find the hidden way out. Seeing they were running out of time, Hawk, the princes, the princesses, and the head guard also begin to help Noah find the way out while Noah sat down in a meditating pose and tries to reach out to princess Esther.

The battle began to get more intense and it was hard for one to identify the dark armies from the Axrians armies because they were both fighting like monsters and beasts, and the blood of Marcelos' armies filled the faces and clothes of the great King, his subjects, and his armies. Marcelos was enjoying the battle and choose not to attack the great King because of his current state.

Noah became frustrated not being able to find the hidden way out of Axrax in the secret library and princess Esther not reaching out back to him. Noah stood up in anger and said with annoyance ''oh fuck''.

Princess Camelia face Noah and said to Noah ''you need to calm Noah and we need to keep trying''.

''I can't right now. We don't have much time and we need to get out of here. Marcelos and his armies could be upon anytime now. The great King, the others, and the armies are not enough to stop them'' said Noah.

''Yeah, we all know that but we need to calm down and find the way out'' said princesses Camelia to Noah, just then a portal suddenly became visible at one side of the room.

Immediately the portal opened and everyone saw it, Noah heard princess Esther's voice said to him ''sometimes patience is needed in things, Noah. That is the portal that is going to take you all out of Axrax''.

Then Noah said to everyone ''the portal is our way out''.

Noah, the princes, the princesses, the head guard, and Hawk begin to help the people and their belongings into the portal.

King Raynold, his subjects, and the remaining armies continue to do their best even though they don't know if the people, the princes, the princesses, the head guard, and Hawk have safely escaped or not. King James and King Marcus kept on counting their scores to know who is best. King Marcus is now at 5246 kills and King James is at 5245 kills.

The princes, the princesses, the head guard, and Hawk safely helped all the people and the librarians into the portal then the head guard went into the portal followed by Hawk, the princes, and the princesses except Noah that stood behind and went outside the library to take a look at the palace one more time. Noah looked at the palace heartbroken and as water filled his eyes then he went back to the secret library and went into the portal, and the portal vanished.

The people, the princes, the princesses, the head guard, and Hawk came out of the portal into a mountain close to Axrax and they all could see Axrax where they stood. Seeing everyone come out of the portal fine except Noah that hasn't come out of the portal made the princes, the princesses, Hawk, and the head guard worried. Prince Mike was about to go back into the portal to get Noah when Noah came out of the portal looking sad then the portal vanished.

As Noah came out of the portal to the mountain, Noah looked at Axrax sadly. Hawk, the princes, the princesses, and the head guard said to Noah that they should leave with the people but Noah refuses saying he need to confirm something for himself.

NIGHT

The whole of Axrax was crawling with Marcelos' armies still looking for the people of Axrax, the princes, Hawk, and the princesses that remain nowhere to be found in the city or palace of Axrax. Marcelos was sited on the great King's throne in the palace hall as Zussorader, Philip, and 11 Marcs stood in front of him. Marcelos asked them ''are you still unable to find them?''.

''Yes, master. There are no traces of them'' said Zussorader to Marcelos.

''What do you mean there are no traces of them? Are you telling me they just vanished because that is not possible? If all the gates were blocked then how did the hell could they have escaped Axrax?'' said Marcelos with anger.

''We don't know that, Master. But they don't seem to be anywhere in Axrax'' said Zussorader to Marcelos.

''Then what about Ramsay and Lilia? Where are they?'' asked Marcelos.

''We also don't know where they are. Everyone seems to last saw them at the west gate before we attacked'' said Philip, just then the 12th Marc walked into the hall.

The 12th Marc stopped in front of Marcelos and kneel with one of its knees then said to Marcelos ''the dark crystal is nowhere to be found, master''.

Marcelos, Zussorader, Philip, and the other Marcs were surprised and confused to hear that. Marcelos asked the 12th Marc ''what do you mean by that?''.

''When I got back to your tent, I found it scattered. Which means someone has taken the dark crystal'' said the 12th Marc.

Marcelos, Zussorader, Philip, and the other Marcs were shocked to hear that. Marcelos said angrily ''someone searched my tent? Who will dare do that?''.

''Yes, master. I don't know'' said the 12th Marc.

Philip said ''what the hell is going on? The people of Axrax are nowhere to be found, the dark crystal is missing and Lilia and Ramsay are also nowhere to be found'', while Marcelos close his eyes and tried to locate his dark crystal using his other powers.

Marcelos saw a vision of the dark crystal in the hands of Lilia and Ramsay then Marcelos opened his eyes furious and stood up from the throne making everyone fall to their knees and bow. Marcelos said furiously and out loud ''find Ramsay and Lilia now and bring them no matter where they are''.

''Yes, master'' said the 12 Marcs, Zussorader, and Philip.

The people were told to spend the night in the mountain while the princes, the princesses, the head guard, Hawk, and Noah went back to Axrax. The princes, the princesses, the head guard, and Hawk sneaked into Axrax through the east gate in search of any of Axrian that might have survived the battle. The princes, the princesses, the head guard, and Hawk searched secretly and sneaky through the city for survivors but they couldn't find none except for the dead bodies of Axrians arranged on the ground, cover with clothes, and unguarded.

The princes, the princesses, the head guard, and Hawk moved closer to the dead bodies and began to check them out one by one. While checking them out, they saw that the dead bodies belongs to the great King, his subjects, and the armies, and they all cry sorrowfully in pain.

The princes, the princesses, the head guard, and Hawk spent a lot of time crying over their fathers, loved ones, and people that lost their lives to protect them before they all return to the mountain.

King James and King James fought and died counting scores and they ended up in a tie.

MORNING

Out of the respect that Marcelos has for the great King, his subjects, and his armies, Marcelos cremated their dead bodies. The princes, the princesses, Hawk, the head guard, and the people watch from the mountain as the dead bodies of the great King, his subjects, and his armies were being cremated before Noah said to everyone that their new journey begins now and they have started it now then they all left to start a new journey.
