Each of the guards at the two towers at the gate was also asleep before they were woken up by Esther who entered their minds. When the guards woke up, they saw Marcelos and his armies from afar marching speedily toward them then they raised the alarm of Marcelos and his armies matching toward them by sounding the alarm bell.

Esther had just told everyone about them being in danger and that Marcelos was marching to them all when they all heard the alarm bell. Hearing the alarm bell, they all knew what it meant and believed Esther to be telling the truth then Hawk told everyone to go prepare. The princes, the princesses, Lilia, Ryn, Benjamin, Nelson, Hemdal, and Hawk left the room to get prepared while Karl asked Esther if she was okay. Esther said to Karl ''am not. I need you to heal me''.

FEW MINUTES LATER

Everyone was present in the living room with their weapons except Hawk, Ryn, and Benjamin would prefer to fight in their animal form. Tracy held her golden bow in her hand and joined her golden arrow with the other arrows in her quiver as she wore her quivers at their back but Hemdal held only his sword and wore both his golden bow and quiver full of arrows and his golden arrow at this back. Even though Hemdal is now an archer and a swordsman, he prefers to use swords than arrows and bows.

They all stood close to each other forming a circle to discuss the plan and Hawk seemed to be the leader. Tracy asked Esther ''do we know how Marcelos was able to locate us?''.

''Not now maybe later. That bastard is very powerful and clever'' said Esther.

''Benjamin, Nelson, you are going to gather the........'' said Hawk to Nelson and Benjamin.

Hawk was cut short of words as the head guard barged in and bowed to their leaders then said ''we have begun to gather the people and their belongings, and the human soldiers and our soldiers are waiting at the gate as you commanded''.

Everyone was confused to hear the head guard say that and they all looked at Nelson and Benjamin to see they were also clueless about what the head guard was talking about because they hadn't seen the head guard until now nor given him any order. Nelson asked the head guard ''I didn't give you any order. What are you talking about?''.

''I know it was not directly from you but he said you were the one that told him to tell us what to do'' said the head guard.

''And who is the person?'' Benjamin asked the head guard.

''I think I know who he is talking about'' said Mike.

''Who is that?'' asked Ryn.

''Who do you all think is braver than Noah and sees every one of us as his responsibility?'' Mike asked the princes and the princesses.

The princes and the princesses reasoned what Mike said and knew who he was talking about. Camelia said ''Ramsay. It is Ramsay''.

''Yeah, it is him. He may decide to stay away from us all but he can never stay away from the fact that someone is in danger'' said Noah.

''That is nice then. If Ramsay has gathered the armies together and has ordered for the people to be evacuated then we have nothing to do than to protect the people'' said Hawk.

Nelson faced the head guard and said to him ''I want all the guards to continue gathering the people and when you are done take them to the 3rd Shape Town''.

''Don't stop or look back to you all get there safely. We will find you when we are done'' said Benjamin to the head guard, then the left.

Hawk said to everyone ''all we have to do is hold Marcelos and his armies for as long as it takes until the people get to safety''.

''What about Bane? We all know she can breathe flame. If Marcelos is here she is also here. How do we deal with her and her flame when no weapon can kill her here?'' asked Lilia.

''Everyone should leave Bane to me. I will take care of her flame. Everyone should remember we are only fighting until the people get to safety after that we retreat. Do not fight because you want to revenge on Marcelos or else you will be killed. You all know he has armies that can't stay dead as long as he is alive and there is no way to kill Marcelos now'' said Esther, and everyone understood Esther.

The guards continue the evacuation of the humans and the shapeshifters while the princes, Ryn, Nelson, the princesses, Karl, Hawk, Benjamin, Hemdal, and Lilia march to the gate to protect the evacuation and hold Marcelos and his armies off for as long as they can.

Upon getting outside of the gate, the princes, Ryn, Nelson, the princesses, Hawk, Benjamin, Karl, Hemdal, and Lilia met Ramsay who was seated on a shapeshifter in a wolf form (in front of their armies), the human army, and the shapeshifter army stationed there as they looked at Bane who was flying Marcelos toward them and Marcelos' armies who were marching speedily toward them and are getting close. The princes, Ryn, Nelson, the princesses, Hawk, Karl, Benjamin, Hemdal, and Lilia joined them and they all looked at Ramsay who seemed not to mind them, and his eyes fixed on the enemy. No one said anything to Ramsay knowing what he was going through and let him be. Kinsley said ''they are much more than we thought and much than us''.

''Does that make you scared, Kinsley?'' said Redrick with a smile to Kinsley.

Kinsley scoffed and said with a smile to Redrick ''I think you are the scared one. You are the one who has someone to protect you, not me who has no one. You have Esther to protect you'', and that made everyone smile even Esther and Redrick annoyed.

Redrick wanted to reply to Kinsley but Esther cut in saying to Redrick " Don't mind him, love. He is only jealous'', and that made Redrick smile happily.

''I think you should all concentrate on what we are here for'' said Ramsay, without looking at anyone.

''Ramsay is right. We need to focus. They are more than us and that is a big disadvantage given the fact that they are armies that can not stay dead as long as Marcelos is alive. Everyone should remember we are not fighting to win but to keep the people safe and once we do that we retreat as fast as we can'' said Hawk.

''Don't try to be a hero or else you will die'' said Esther.

Nelson faced their army and said to their army ''we have waited for a day like this and it has finally appeared. Fight with no fear. Fight with courage because I know you are all brave. Fight to protect our heritage and our family'', and they all cheered.

Benjamin faced their army and also said to their army ''Today we will be fighting battle like our forefathers did. The army will fight in three forms. The bear, the eagle, and the wolf. The wolves and bear will take the ground and the eagle will take the air. They are dangerous and deadly armies but we will show them how ruthless we are'', and they all cheered.

Hemdal said to the human army ''those monsters have taken everything from us. They have taken our home, family, and everything we have got. Are still going to let them take lives from us? No. We have got to show them that we are ready not to lose anything anymore. We are ready to fight for our remaining loved ones and protect them with all we have got. Fight with no mercy, kill with no mercy. Kill them all'', and they all cheered.

Hawk faces both armies and says to them ''I can't promise you all that you will return to your family but I can promise you all that your death won't be in vain. Fight with everything you can and keep our legacy alive'', and everyone cheered raising their weapon except for Ramsay.

Benjamin, Hawk, Hemdal, and Nelson faced Marcelos and his armies back and the princes and the princesses were glad that they would be fighting alongside another being and were loving the energy surrounding them all before the fight. Ramsay said to everyone without looking at them ''I would suggest that the shapeshifters be the ones to fight the dark druids and Garrlys because only they will have the chance of killing them''.

''He is right'' said Lilia, then Ramsay looked at Lilia to see she was also looking at him.

Ramsay looked front without saying anything to Lilia then Lilia said to everyone ''That way we will be able to hold them long enough for the people to escape''.

Everyone reasoned with what Ramsay and Lilia said and they all agreed with what he said.

Everyone got ready as they awaited Marcelos and his armies to get closer while the guards continued to evacuate the people. Marcelos and his armies get much closer and everyone still waits but Ramsay rode the wolf toward Marcelos and his army. Seeing Ramsay leading the way Nelson and Hemdal ordered the armies to attack and they did. The princes, the princesses, Hemdal, Nelson, Esther, Karl, Lilia, and the human army unsheathed their swords. Tracy got her arrows ready then they all ran toward Marcelos’ armies. Upon getting very close to Marcelos and his army as they ran toward them Benjamin and Ryn took their wolf form, Hawk took a cheetah form, and the army took three forms the bear, wolf, and eagle form. Marcelos and his armies collided with the human leaders and their army, and the shapeshifter leaders and their army then the battle began.

Immediately after the battle begins, Esther creates another version of her whose job is to always watch Bane and protect their armies and others from being torched by her flame. Marcelos, Philip, and the Marcs get down from their phoenixes to fight in the battle and Marcelos fights intending to kill all the princes, princesses, and Lilia except Ramsay. Esther, Ramsay, and Noah fight with their magic and swords but Ramsay adds his anger and his intention to get to Marcelos and kill him to his fight. The other princes, princesses, and Hemdal had fought Marcelos' armies before so they had no problem killing them and they knew that they had to stay away from the Marcs. Lilia knows all she needs to know about Marcelos’ armies and their weaknesses just like Ramsay because they have both trained with them so killing them was very easy for her but she knows she has to stay away from the Marcs because only Ramsay had trained with the Marcs. After all, Marcelos was trying to make him a better fighter making him train with them. Tracy was enjoying her golden bow with her arrows because she never misses a target, it is very flexible in her hand, and it helps with other offensive moves.

Even though Karl has never fought Marcelos's armies before, her skill in martial arts and swordsmanship could be compared to that of the Marcs and she also has physical strength because of who she is so she has no trouble killing Marcelos' armies even the dark druids. Nelson had never fought any of Marcelos’ armies before and had no trouble killing other Marcelos' armies but when he fought a dark druid he was surprised by the way it fought and the dark druid almost killed him. Nelson could have died at the hands of the dark druid that he fought but he changed into his bear form which saved him and made him able to kill the dark druid, and he never changed back to his human form and continued to fight in his bear form. Ryn and Benjamin had fought Marcelo's armies once with their father and mother so they had no trouble in their wolf form killing them but they knew never to attack the Marcs so they stayed away from them. Hawk knows all there is to know about Marceles’ armies and in his huge cheetah form, Hawk is very fast and deadly to Marcelos’ armies. Hawk also thinks he can take on a Marc in his cheetah form but hasn't encountered them.

As ordered by their leaders, the human army fought the Gargoyles, Orgmus, and Orges, and stayed away from the dark druids and Garrlys while the shapeshifter army fought the dark druids and Garrlys. The human army fighting the Gargoyles, Orgmus, and Orges while the shapeshifter army fighting the dark druids and Garrlys helped the humans and shapeshifters in battle and it didn't look like the weak against the strong battle but a fair battle. The humans know all about the Gargoyles, Orgmus, and Orges because they were trained by their leaders who had fought them multiple times and trained them in the way to fight Marcelos’ armies not in the way to fight being like them or other beings so they had no trouble killing the Orges, Orgmus, and Gargoyles. The shapeshifters in their bear and wolf form were able to kill Garrlys because the Garrlys, bears, and wolves were all huge, brutal, and ruthless animals. The shapeshifters in their bear and wolf form were able to kill the dark druids because of their size, speed, claws, teeth, and strength and they don't easily die just by one swing of a sword.

Marcelos' armies are known to be fearless, ruthless, and monstrous so they fear nothing which helps them in battle. Marcelos’ armies were killing as much as the human army and the shapeshifter army were killing them. The dark druids are very skillful with their swords and fast so they were able to kill the bears and wolves by cutting their heels making them fall to their knees then taking off their heads. The Garrlys fought the bears and wolves with their claws and tails poisoning them but the poison didn't quickly take effect on the shapeshifters because of their healing ability and by the time the poison took effect, either the bears or wolves would have killed the Garrlys or they became paralyze and the Garryls uses their teeth to their necks apart.

Even though the human army seemed to be good with their fighting skill, the Gargoyles, the Orgmus, and Orges were still able to kill them. The Orges having four arms and their size helps them a lot against the humans. The Orges aren't that much of a fighter but their urge to kill makes them fight crazily and unpredictable in battle and they kill the human army. The Orgmus being fast animals that don't die with just a swing of a sword help them kill the humans that failed to locate their necks which is the only way they can die faster. The Gargoyles being crazy and having claws and wings that they use to fight help them kill the humans.

Bane and the other phoenixes attacked the humans and shapeshifters from the sky by picking them up and taking them high in the sky then dropping them to die but Bane was annoyed that the version of Esther that Esther created to watch over Bane was using magical shields to prevent the flame Bane breathes upon the human army and the shapeshifter army multiple times from hurting them so they can continue to fight. Seeing what another version of Esther was doing, Bane tried to kill it and attacked it but upon attacking it Bane realized that it couldn't be killed or attacked and its only job was to stop her flame from hurting their soldiers then Bane could no longer breathe her flame but the another version of Esther continues to follow Bane around.

Some of the eagles attacked Marcelos' armies the same way the phoenixes attacked their armies but the eagles made sure to tear them into pieces with either their claws or mouths before dropping their bodies while the other eagles attacked the phoenixes and Bane but they were not able to kill them except wounded them before they were killed, and Bane can’t be wounded.
