Back at the castle*

SkekSo, SkekVar, SkekSil and Malikai are going to make a deal with the Arathim*

SkekVar-Are you sure this will work?

Malikai: I have a bad feeling about this emperor.

SkekSo- Nonsense. Everything will be alright.

SkekSo and The three approach a cave that has bright light in it.

SkekSo nodded at SkekSil to call the Arathim*

SkekSil touched the web to make a sound*

All the spittors come together and make several faces, creeping them out.

Arathim: We are the ascendancy!

Malikai stands brave*

SkekSo- Arathim... We came to see you.

Arathim: Emperor, what is it you want from us?

SkekSo- We came to ask for help.

Arathim: Hmmm, will we get our old him the Grotten caves?

SkekSo- You will once you help me capture the gelfling. We know they won't come to us willingly.

Arathim: Hmmm, very well, but we will help you, if you bring us the strongest gelfling.

SkekSo- We will.

Arathim: Good.

SkekSo and the three left*

Back at the circle of the suns*

The others are waiting in the room but Savy is still sad*

Smarty notices and pats her back.

Smarty- Hey... You ok?

Savy: When I first met SkekSil when I was 15, he was very nice to me though. Then when SkekSo noticed this, he has decreed that SkekSil and I should get married. But... it doesn't seemed right.

Smarty- Then it's not.

Savy looks at him*

Smarty- You shouldn't get married to people you don't really love

Savy: I guess.

Smarty- It's the truth. That's not how life goes just by some stupid law!

Savy smiles: You know, your better than SkekSil.

Smarty smiles a little.

Smarty- Thanks.

Savy kisses Smarty's cheek*

Smarty freezes in shock as red hue appears in his cheeks

Wheezy and Crystal noticed this*

Crystal- (Smiles) Aw look at them. Only met an hour ago and they're already lovey dovey.

Wheezy smiles: Just like you and me babe.

Crystal blushes red as her lilac eyes widened.

UrGoh came in: It's.... ready...

Everyone turns their attention towards the front where the lights are off and a small light of the front appears as Randall appears in a jester costume.

Rascal smiles: You look great Randall. (:>

Randall- (Sarcastically) Ha ha very funny.

Crystal and Savy giggle .

SkekGra: *whisper* Say your line.

Randall sighs.

Randall- Welcome, ladies and gentlemen. Today we will tell you the story of---

Then SkekGra cuts him off.

SkekGra: Oh that's enough, you may go and take that jester outfit off now!

Randall- Okay jeez!

Randall walks off to remove the outfit.

SkekGra: Ahem, they called me the conqueror when I was young, from sea to sea, my victories were sunk, I lie, I cursed, I killed I hurt I maimed, by all the cruel deeds of which I was made. Then Earth gave UrGoh and me a vision.

The "Audience" oohed.

UrGoh slowly came in: That's..... my.... cue....

Everyone watches UrGoh as he takes his turn.

UrGoh: To.... embrace... unity... not.... division...

SkekGra: We desperately tried to convince the rest. But skeksis and mystics, were unimpressed.

UrGoh: We hold the key.... to... end... skeksis... demise.

SkekGra: But first, an original opera.

Smarty- I see that.

Randall came to them and sit down*

SkekGra and UrGoh start doing the opera*

Milo: This would take a while.

Lois smirks and crosses her arms

Lois- No kidding , Mi.

Milo hugs Lois*

Lois blushes pink but she smiles and rolls her eyes playfully.

Back at the castle*

SkekSo is going to show SkekSil, SkekVar and Malikai the darkening*

SkekSo- You see this, my allies?

Malikai sees the hole filled with darkening: Darkening, I thought there is no darkening?

SkekSo- No. SkekTek is right. There is a Darkening. I only lied so he can keep on working and not to worry about it.

The darkening came to SkekSo's crystal on the staff*

SkekSil: Hmmm, curious, why do you use the power of the darkening? Hmmm?

SkekSo- So, when the gelfling comes to me for help about the Darkening, that's when we'll be able to capture them, as well as from the help of the Arathims

SkekSo sighed when he took off his metal beak to reveal the consequence*

SkekSil gasped: Is that?

SkekVar- Yes. It is.

SkekSo sighed: This is what happens when I consume too much darkening, I get weaker every time I used it. *as he put his metal beak back on*

SkekSil: So that's why you want me to marry Princess Savy.

SkekSo- Because I saw the way you look at her Chamberlain. You cannot fool me with the feelings you have for her.

SkekSil nodded yes: I wanted her as my queen so badly. I must not let anyone else have her.

SkekSo- Well, it's a good thing you got SkekMal hunting her down.

SkekSil nodded yes*

SkekSo: SkekVar, you and Malikai go to the gelfling cages and find the strongest gelfling for the Arathim.

SkekSil nods.

SkekSil- I will , my sire.

SkekVar watches as SkekSil and Malikai leave.
