Mari ends up losing the chanting battle. Out of everything she was good at that was her one thing she did not do well. The slit in the air was finally big enough to have the evil being to come through. What came was a pile of black rocks and glass. Once he had gotten through the dark mages stopped and only put up defense spells. Because of this the fighting stopped completely. The mages knelt down. 

"After hundreds of years in that prison and 200 of planning I am finally here. Even better all the parts of my soul are here. You have done well my servants" the voice that this soul was sickening to the stomach. 

The ball breaks and it is a male body and the evil thing gets in it. The black soul enters the eyes, nose and mouth covering the face.

"Ah, a body to fit my soul" a deep voice sounds from the male body compared to the echoing one he had as just a soul.

By the wave of his hand Zesty and Marco flew backwards leaving Janet, Sally, Kaiden, and Titus on their own. 

"Lilly Vanderson, it has been a long time since you betrayed me." said the man.

"No Macon, my name is Janet Keller." she swallows and breaths trying not to smile at his name. 

She could tell the others are trying hard not to laugh. You even hear some bellies grumble at the name because of what his reminds them of.

Macon wonders out loud, "Did many of you not eat before coming here?"

One person had the balls to do it. They yelled it.

"Mac on Cheese!" yelled Mari as she appeared right next to the 4.

Just about everyone burst out laughing. Macon not knowing the reason was getting mad sensing that they were laughing at him.

"What is the meaning of this!" he yelled loudly over the laughing crowd.

"Vanderson," said Janet,"we are not laughing at you. But the meaning of your name here. It was a normal name in the old world. It might even have been normal here a couple hundred years ago. But now it is a common name for a noodle and cheese dish here called Mac n Cheese. So, that is what we are laughing about."

Macon pauses and thinks about it. It makes sense, there were such names in the old world, I would laugh because it was similar to food. They were not prepared for my name to sound close to one here. But the women who shouted the name dared to mock me and made everyone bust out the laugh they were holding in. I will kill her for it but after I deal with Lilly first.

"I do not care that you have another name. To me you are Lilly, the one who betrayed, killed and imprisoned me for hundreds of years! And you woman who dared to openly mock. I will deal with you later" as he said this he moves one of his fingers toward his palm bringing Janet to him that instant.

No one had time to act it was so quick. Janet was in front of Macon in no time. 

"200 years of bodies were able to hold my one large soul in one body. My math was correct." He looks closely at her and then at Titus. He takes a minute to think. Janet has a feeling she knows what he is doing. She found out by accident that she could do this with Sally during one of their training sessions.

Everyone else is on edge. Sobering up their laughter when Janet flew to Macon. 

"How interesting. This is fun news. I can control the wolves. Bring down your defense shields they can't hurt you now."

The dark mages looked skeptical. 

"Let me prove it. Shift into your human form and jump around like bunnies."
