Authors note: Merry Christmas Everyone and Enjoy the chapter! 

Magic is everywhere; some places have a stronger render to it than others; Fighting Odin and my father in the land of Norse is an example of a place where magic flows freely. 

Before the fall of Wynn, I was taught by the archmage some before his fall; I was very young at the time and did not understand all that he taught me but one thing is clear. Everything has a weakness, Even Magical beings. 

When the fog clears and the rocky cliffs of Avalon Appear, my shoulders slump forward, groaning, "we're back at Avalon." 

Climbing out of the boat, we head for the cliffs, but Angela crosses her arms, looking at me. "I'm beginning to think this Manhattan We search for is a myth." 

"Nodding to her, kinda giving her a half-smile, I place a hand on her shoulder "Yeah, you both kid and me. 

The other Gargoyles meet us on the shore, making me smile. "Gaberial, long time no see." 

"Boudicca can sense your return even from the palace" he smiles at me, looking at the others. "We have missed you all." 

"Gabriel," my father says, more chippy than usual, making me raise an eyebrow amusingly, "how has Avalon been?"

"Yes, peaceful, quiet, truthfully, a small adventure now and then would be nice," he says, making me laugh the others looking at me. "Trust me, my friend, when your life is just one long adventure, having a peaceful and quiet life wouldn't be so bad." 

We make our way to the palace, my wings wrapped around me seeing all the other gargoyles glide around making me smile but sigh. All of these gargoyles and the only one I want to see right now is a certain silver-headed bird boy. 

"Every time we sail into that mist" I hear Elisa say making me look at her, my father listening as well. "I keep hoping to see the Brooklyn Bridge or Lady Liberty". 

Nodding I sigh "Yeah, this trip has been long overdue for a recall" 

At least you have Avalon to come home to" Princess Catherine says making me smile sadly "That's really generous princess but Elisa and I mean new york".  We stand now outside of the main gate stopping as I continue "Elisa has a family to return to and I.." I stop looking at my dad knowing I haven't really broken the news to him about Brooklyn and I being together. 

"I have someone waiting for my return"

Suddenly dark storm clouds cover the sky making me frown my eyes hardening, the ground rises knocking the others over but I sidestep avoiding it crossing my arms two figures appearing out of smoke.  

the triplet witches appear underneath the couple motioning to us making me raise an eyebrow "you see, my lord?" we spoke the truth, Humans, and gargoyles profane your kingdom" 

"A minor Nuisance, but all the same, they will have to go," the blue figure says making me frown. 

From the corner of my eye, I see Tom walking in front of the group readying his sword "your companions we know already, sir and lady declare yourselves" pulling out his sword. The weird sister real back making me raise an eyebrow my arms crossing "they are Lord Oberon and Queen Tatonia of the Third race". 

Everyone looks at me as I continue "this is his palace and Avalon his kingdom" 

"very intuitive child, now you all have an hour to remove yourselves from our domain," Oberon says pointing at us 

"This is our home," the princess says making me frown looking at everyone around me "We have no place else to go" 

"That is none of our concern," Oberon says as Gaberial pleads with the God stating that this island has been empty for almost as long as my slumber was.
