SOMEONE ELSE'S POV-
On the first day, the house of Morningstar fell

On the third day, the newly crowned King of Hell, Caliban, and his new Queen Eden, led the Infernal Armies on a crusade to claim the Earth as the Tenth Circle

He failed

On the fourth day, the pagans beat back Caliban and his armies, and stole Eden
The earth was theres

-FLASHBACK-
Screams ran through greendale, we had lost
I could only cry as they pulled me back, and dragged me to a large leaf statue

My green man

I screamed out louder and louder, desperation coming to me

Caliban was gone, the army was gone
It was just me, alone again

They pulled me into the vines, cutting my wrist as blood flowed down onto the ground, and I could see the end coming
I wouldn't die
I would be here forever

On the 7th day, hell was emptied by an army of celestials, and the earth was lain in ruins

-FLASHBACK-

I whimpered as I knelt on the ground, blood continuously rushing out of me as I seemed to never lose it
I saw things start to sprout, I had caused this
I had been so weak I didn't even notice someone hovering over me, not until they spoke
"Eden"
A familiar voice, I force myself to look up
"Brother Michael?" Is all I can utter, his pure white looked extremely out of place in the overgrown garden
"Brother help me please, let me stop it" I beg to him, this was all a mistake, everything I have ever done, was a mistake
"It's too late, sister, I cannot help"
That's all I took to know, that nothing could be done
Everything was gone
It was the end

But what of Sabrina Morningstar?
She was where Caliban had left her, entombed in stone between her Father and Lilith

How much time had passed?
Decades in fact
She wondered dimly

Who would come save her?
Would it be Nicholas, or Harvey, or Rosalind or her aunties, even Eden perhaps?

She didn't know they'd all died long ago

And that in the end, the only person who could save Sabrina, and everyone else
Was herself

EDENS POV-
It had been
Decades
I'd seen the world end, I was constantly barely alive, blood gushing out of me at every second, an endless cycle

I had caused this, the green man plagued my every thoughts at all times, I couldn't sleep, I couldn't eat and I couldn't move
Nobody else was here, nobody normal was alive, they had all been zombified and even the pagans had disappeared

I was alone, my hair impossibly long, my eyes tired from lack of sleep and tears

I mourned for everyone, I mourned for caliban and my friends
I mourned for myself, for who I used to be

I wanted to die, I didn't know where I'd go, but I just wanted it to be over
Please somebody help

I feel my bonds loosen
I wanted to move, I needed a jolt of energy as I felt myself moving, I slumped over slowly, putting my arms forward to stop myself falling fully, gasping heavily

It took me a minute to stand, and I see an oh so familiar face

"Sabrina?" My voice croaky as I start to stand, she says nothing as she walks towards me and I slump into her arms

"I'm so sorry" I feel her squeeze me slightly, a lot of words needed to be said but that squeeze said a lot
It's okay

I feel her mutter a few words, her chest vibrating as she says and I feel myself have more energy, and am able to stand on my own

"Eden... what happened?" I look at her, I was too exhausted to cry, I had become numb

"This is my fault, they took my blood for the green man, everyone's dead"
I see her breath catch
"Everyone..?" I gulp and nod slowly
"It's been a while Sabrina"

We continue to walk and I see two plant men walking towards something, We freeze in our tracks, thinking of what to do next

What happens next, wasn't what we planned
I feel a strong hand cover my mouth and sabrinas, I want to scream but I'm quick to realize who it is
Ambrose?

"Don't say a word, come with me" is all he says in a hushed tone, we nod our heads as we follow, away from the plant men

-TIME SKIP-
We make our way to a hideout, no doubt where Ambrose had been hiding as he fills us in on what had happened

I wasn't aware of how much had changed, it had been so long of nothing, that I didn't even know

We make our way inside, planning our next move
"Please tell us you found a way to fix things"
I watch as Ambrose stands and looks at Sabrina
"Fix things?
Sabrina you missed the end of the world, not to the least because of your little friend here"
I furrow my brows as I go to speak, but he interrupts me again

"No, it was your fault, was it not your blood that made the plants grow? Was it not your king who tried to enslave the earth? Was it not your own selfishness and sin that caused the end of the world?!" He spits those words like venom into my face, and I can only look down to the floor

He is right, it was my fault

"Wait a minute" I hear Sabrina, I hadn't even realized she was talking in the moment

"That's how it was me"
This gets both mine and ambroses attention, I follow the direction her eyes are facing, towards a fish tank with the strange time egg

Sabrina looks towards ambrose
"Can the eggs magick be used to send someone backwards in time?"
