Out of nowhere, everyone was back in the debriefing room, Everyone stumbled back in their chairs a little, Katzen and Sharky seeming startled. "Are you all ok?" He asked. "What... just happened?" Millie said. "I think.. This wasn't a dream. How long were we out, Kat?" Alex said, seeming somewhat intrigued. "You guys were out? It hasn't even been a minute!"

The group broke into discussions and some arguments. "Ok, guys.. GUYS!" Alex shouted, The group went silent. "This! This is what broke the seal in the tree of life! We need to act as one! We need a plan. A good plan." Alex said as he took out an ancient map of the realm. He pointed at the dark kingdom. "This is where we need to go, and if you see here, all our kingdoms have a view of it, if we can get all of our guards ready, we can launch an all-out attack." He continued, pointing all over the map. Kris slowly raised his hand. "Kris your guards are scattered throughout the kingdoms. You do not have to go back over to your kingdom for the time being." Alex knew what to say, and Kris slowly lowered his hand. "Now once we get there, all of us, excluding Katzen and Sharky, will sneak into where they have transported the tree and seal, Our parents will stay back and continue leading on the raid to surround the kingdom from the outside then start heading in." Alex kept on speaking, and Kris slowly raised his hand again. "Kris, Since.. Neither of your parents are present. We're going to need the war general you put in your kingdom to lead the battle for the air guards." Kris lowered his hand again. "So once we're in, they're going to be expecting us. You all know about the dark council, so I won't go into too much detail.. Anyone wanna call dibs on who they fight..?" Alex joked. "If we're picking who we want to fight, I call dibs on that new War General they elected. I wanna see how much he really knows.." Kris responded almost instantly. The others chuckled to themselves. "I mean we'll see when we get there," Alex assured. "Kris, how about some restoration potions? We're gonna need some sort of portable healing." Elliot asked. Kris thought for a moment. "Well.... I'm not in my lab... but I heard there was a good one in here.." Kris looked to Alex. "If you need to, I can get a station set up for you." Alex insisted, and Kris stood up. "Let's waste no time then! Guys, come on, gather EVERYONE! If you see my guards or my war general, direct them over to this kingdom." Kris happily exclaimed and ran out the door.

Kris runs into the lab station and immediately gets to work. The recipe for the potion is simple; 3 rosewood leaves, 1 Lily, and some other chemicals (they're safe, do not worry.) Alex started working on some of his newer works of art, better weapons, and upgrades. The others gathered their guards, got themselves ready for the upcoming battle, and marched back into the electric kingdom, which now seemed to be colorful, like a rainbow, with all the different guards merging together in line, the free older generation of primordials standing in front of all them.

The primordials rushed into the hall, where they all met again. "Are we all ready?" Alex said. The others looked at each other and nodded. "I have made 2 potions for each person. They are small but heal rather quickly." Kris said as he took out two glass viles full of a reddish-purple liquid. "Let's hope we don't have to use the two of them." Jordi commented as he received his share. Kris looked out the window, where the older generation where standing in the stand, the guards looking up at them, and he sighed. Elliot walked up to him and patted him in the back. Kris didn't say anything. he just looked out the window. "There is no time for mourning, We need to beat these fuckers." Kris finally let out. "Now THAT'S what I'm talking about!" Tombstone shouted. Alex took out what seemed to be some sort of badge. "I've crafted upgrades to each's weapons. With these emblems, the weapon will be permanently upgraded." Alex said as he gave everyone their designated emblem, The emblem resembled the person's natural power. "Soo.. how does this work?" Jordi asked. "Simple," Alex said as he unsheathed his sword and slapped the emblem on the handle, The sword glowed for a few seconds and once it stopped the design changed entirely. It looked like thunder was imprinted into the sword, it glowed a little. The others followed along and the room shined so bright everyone inside got flashbanged. They each looked at their weapons in awe, "I think.. This is just what we need to win." Elliot said.

As they made their way outside where the older generation of primordials seemed to be grouped, the primordials got in line next to each other, facing forward towards where all the knights were standing. "At last," Alex's father, king of the Electric Kingdom, "today, we shall put an end to Dark Knight's Rampage, They do not stand a chance if we fight as one, they WILL get put in their place." The knights cheered, but the younger generations of primordials simply stayed quiet. Elliot and Kris were standing right next to each other, and Kris looked over to her. "After.. All of this.. Can I crash at your place?" He whispered. "You're always free to crash at my place, Kristopher." She replied and they chuckled. Tombstone's father raised his left hand, which seemed to be covered in weird markings and scars, and from his hand a bright purple light emitted from it. Suddenly, skeleton hands rose from the ground and unburied the rest of their skeleton bodies. The other knights looked as the skeletons, who already were wearing armor, fully stood up. Everyone seemed sort of shocked except Tombstone's Dad, Santiago, and Alex's dad, Adam. "I think.. We are ready for battle." Adam said.

It was a long journey, walking to the dark kingdom, but there they were. Overlooking the Dark Kingdom. It was foggy, extremely foggy, and from the center of the kingdom a light shone up into the sky, illuminating the dead trees and the eroded land. The younger primordials have never been this close to the Dark Kingdom, but they are ready to face whatever comes their way.

Everything was going by too fast, it was too much for Kris to handle, but he knew he had to keep fighting, for himself, for his friends, and for his mom. "After this, I think we need a few drinks!" Tombstone shouted from across the battlefield and the others chuckled quietly. Dark Soldiers were coming from all sides of the Kingdom, rushing everything and everyone. Thunder struck down from the sky, Vines seemed to grab Dark Soldiers and fling them, rocks rained down from the sky, and there was so much commotion. He couldn't tell if it was blood or potions splashed across the floor. "AIM FOR THE WALL! BRING IT DOWN! TOMB, ONCE THE WALL IS BROKEN BREACH IN WITH THE REST OF THE YOUNGER PRIMORDIALS AND INFILTRATE WHERE THE DARK COUNCIL IS HIDING." Santiago shouted as he pointed to a weak point of the wall that seemed to already be crumbling. Kris raised his giant hammer, pulled it back, and tossed it straight through the wall, With a giant BOOM and some debris falling everywhere, the whole wall crumbled over. "Nice shot!" Alex shouted. The giant hammer started floating back to Kris, doing a couple of spins and knocking some dark soldiers down before fully returning to Kris' hand. Kris didn't respond, he was too focused on his mission. He started running through the crowd for the wall, hammering his foes down like a stack of nails. Millie looked over to her mother, who was fighting alongside Santiago and Adam, she looked back at her and nodded. Millie turned to Kris and started running through the path he has created, the others following behind her.
