We stopped near a glass box, inside it was The Gem . I picked up a stone and threw it at the box and the glass shattered to the ground. The Gem layed there glistening in the light sunlight coming in through the cracks of the cave. 

I picked it up and everything started spinning and suddenly we were standing near the ship and the others were also there

I picked it up and everything started spinning and suddenly we were standing near the ship and the others were also there. They too were holding a gem that looked exactly like the one I had. The gem Oliver was holding lit up and the other gems turned to black dust and fell through our fingers .

The sky grew dark and we saw Veronica flying down towards us. Behind her was a large number of people and they were flying too even though they didn't have wings. We knew that we had no time to loose. Oliver handed The Gem to me and I started summoning fire , but before I could The Gem was knocked out of my hand. I looked up to see Veronica in front of me. She send some black liquid in my direction and as soon as it hit me ivy like strands started sprouting, wrapping themselves around me. I yelled as it wrapped itself around my neck . I tore at it furiously but it only grew lagger making it hard for me to breathe.

With an enormous effort I managed to tear it off. It coiled itself up and disappeared . Harvey appeared behind Veronica and punched her. She turned around to face him , her face red with anger . The Gem which has now fallen from her hands were right in front of me . I picked it up and summoned fire . The Gem caught fire and black smoke appeared.

Veronica screamed and when I faced her I saw there seemed to be smoke coming from her too. She ran towards me and the remaining parts of The Gem turned into liquid and dripped through my fingers. Veronica screamed even louder and fell to her knees . Little by little she started vaporizing and by five seconds of time she disappeared . Her followers now not knowing what to do without their leader started to fly away. We all erupted in cheers.

"WE DID IT!", Heather yelled excitedly .

We went back to the ship and started our journey back home.
