The air crackled with tension as the battle against Darkstalker reached a critical juncture. Kinkajou, Turtle, and Anemone, driven by the knowledge of Darkstalker's vulnerability, contemplated a daring plan—one that involved using his own magic against him.

The Jade Winglet, alongside Godzilla, gathered around the pinned Darkstalker under Godzilla's foot. The colossal titan's deep growl echoed through the air, an indication of his desire to vanquish this ancient threat once and for all.

Moonwatcher's brow furrowed as she considered the options before them. 

Turtle, being a cautious thinker, said "We have a choice to make. Should we attempt to convert Darkstalker so that he can start life anew, just get rid of his powers, or... do we heed Godzilla's desire to eliminate this threat?"

Qibli's eyes darted between his friends and the towering titan. "It's a difficult decision. On one talon, we've seen the devastating consequences of Darkstalker's actions. But on the other, we have Godzilla, who has stopped him and wants to kill him."

Winter's voice was firm, his gaze unwavering. "We cannot ignore the consequences of Darkstalker's past actions. The safety of our world and its inhabitants should be our priority."

Kinkajou, her eyes shimmering with determination, spoke up. "I believe in redemption, in the possibility of change. If there's a chance to save Darkstalker from himself, to give him a second chance, we should take it."

Turtle's voice was soft but resolute. "Darkstalker's actions have caused immeasurable pain, but we must remember that he was once a dragon filled with dreams and aspirations. We have to consider the bigger picture."

"If only you knew..." Darkstalker said glaring at Turtle

Anemone, her scales glowing with a mixture of hope and trepidation, added her voice to the discussion. "Perhaps turning him into a newborn dragonet again would provide an opportunity for him to grow up without the weight of his past deeds. He could have a chance at a different future."

"NO NOT THAT! HOW DARE YOU THINK OF SUCH A THING!" Darkstalker shouted very insulted 

Godzilla's tail thumped against the ground, his eyes narrowing as he listened to their deliberations. His desire to eliminate the threat of Darkstalker was palpable, but there was a glimmer of understanding in his gaze.

After a long moment of contemplation, Moonwatcher spoke with conviction. "We have to find a way to reconcile both options. To give Darkstalker a chance at redemption, but also ensure the safety of our world. It won't be easy, but perhaps a compromise can be reached."

The Jade Winglet followed their original plan—a delicate balance between granting Darkstalker a chance for redemption and protecting the dragons and creatures they held dear. Together, they would create a scenario where Darkstalker's transformation could be enacted, while simultaneously ensuring that he could be contained and prevented from causing harm.

Darkstalker laughed causing everybody to look at the giant Nightwing who was being stepped on by Godzilla "You're not seriously thinking of making me turn into a dragonet, right?...guys...seriously?"

"It's for the best" said a new voice from overhead.

"Foeslayer?" winter said confused as the new dragon flew to land beside them all.

"MOTHER!?" Darkstalker said with a jump to his voice

"yes son, it's me..." she sighed and walked up to Darkstalker and set her talon on his head that was massive compared to her.

"I-I thought you died when you took off your earing and were sent to the Icewing palace with Diamond! he said with a stutter in his voice.

"You shouldn't have blamed the Icewings for what happened to me, It was Diamond's doing, she was the bad one here, not the others"

"What about Arctic? He deserved it!" Darkstalker said loudly, it earned a grunt from Godzilla as he still stared at the Nightwing under him.

"And would you get off of me!" Darkstalker bellowed at Godzilla.

Godzilla bent lower and roared back at him knocking over about 4 trees and Kinkajou in the process.

"Ugh"

"Darkstalker, all the dragons from our time are long gone and dead by now. But I would say that you have become evil yourself, that is why you need to start over" Foeslayer said following the titan's roar of annoyance.

"Please, not that! anything but starting over  as a stupid hatchling AGAIN"

Kinkajou then walked forward and whispered something to Foeslayer, Darkstalker had a face of shock as Foeslayer grabbed a strawberry from Kinkajou's palm.

both he and Moon heard the plan, and Moon liked it. It was better than killing Darkstalker or changing him into a completely different dragon.

They decided to rid him of his powers and enormous size, changing him back to the size he was around 2000 years ago.

"Please mother"

"No Darkstalker, I've had enough of hearing of you terrorizing dragons" Then she tossed the strawberry into his mouth as he tried to reply.
