-Sherwood Forest Lane Enchanted Haven-

White and black bolts of electric energy were flying back and forth.  Merlin and Raven were focused on wearing down Rumplestiltskin until they knew for sure that Evanya had broken the curse.

"Face it, Raven!  You're weak!  You are still learning how to use your light magic; therefore, you are not strong enough to defeat me!"

Raven fired a ball of fire toward the imp and said, "You don't know because you weren't there in Mystic Kingdom with Merlin and me!"

"Basta con questa monotonia!"

Two bolts of gold electric energy soared toward Rumplestiltskin, knocking him back four feet.  Evanya and Jonathan walked into the street, and Merlin took Raven by the arm, pulling her away.

"What are you doing?  Rumplestiltskin..." Raven started, and Merlin shook his head, interrupting her, "It's not our fight.  This fight was bound to happen.  It just took twenty-six years for it to come to fruition."

Rumplestiltskin finally got the strength to stand.  He turned to see who knocked him down, and what he saw angered him.

"Well, bravo, you've done it," he clapped sarcastically, then continued, "You broke it.  I was about ready to finalize the curse."

Jonathan said, "No need for that.  It's time my mother, Evanya, and I get the justice we deserve for what you and my father have done."

"You don't know what you're getting yourself into," Rumplestiltskin warned, then Evanya countered, "No, you have no idea what we're capable of."

The fire traveled up Jonathan's arms; the same happened to Evanya.  It wasn't the natural color of fire; it was gold.  Rumplestiltskin formed a shield when the couple sent their golden fire comets toward him.  One of the comets destroyed the shield, and the other hit him square in the chest, knocking him down.  He jumped back up, landing on his feet.

"Where's your bucket of popcorn?" Jonathan asked, and Rumplestiltskin sent three black electric comets toward the couple.  Evanya held up her hand, and the three comets stopped in midflight.

"Awe," Evanya started, "that was cute but stupid." She motioned with her hands, and the comets turned around.  After flicking her wrist, the comets soared toward the imp, and he caught them in his hand.  They disintegrated into dust.

"You will have to do better than that to defeat me!"

Jonathan formed an enormous ball of golden electric energy, and Evanya created a golden fireball in her hand.

"You will never defeat me like that.  You're not strong enough," the imp said, and Evanya asked, "Are you sure about that?"

Jonathan shot his energy ball toward Rumplestiltskin, and Evanya threw her fireball.  Rumplestiltskin attempted to repel the energy ball but to no avail.  It hit him square in the chest, sending him flying backward into a large oak tree, and then the fireball hit him.  A clear orb with black glittery swirling dust inside flew out of him.  Evanya caught it before it hit the ground.  Jonathan walked closer to her, and they looked into each other's eyes.

"Together," he said, placing his hand over the top of the orb, and she nodded.  "Together."

They crushed the orb in their hands, and the black glittery dust fell toward the ground, only to be carried off by the wind.

Rumplestiltskin attempted to cast a spell toward the couple, but nothing happened.  He tried again, and still, nothing happened.  Evanya and Jonathan smiled as Rumplestiltskin continued to attempt to cast a spell toward the couple, but to no avail.
