Nightmare Moon returns

SkekSo's funeral

But meanwhile in the castle of the crystal in scary mountain*

SkekSil walks down the hall, he is having a lustful thought of Savy*

SkekSil tries to think of a way to recapture Savy so he can have her all to himself.

SkekZok runs in: Guys! Guys!

SkekEkt- Huh?

SkekSil- What is it?

SkekZok: Weaselings, skeksis, it's the emperor, he's dying!

Zanobia- What?

Malikai is worried: Oh no!

Zanobia- Already?!

Malikai: Guys com'on!

All the Weaselings and Skeksis rush to where SkekSo's death bed may be*

SkekSo is breathing on the bed wearing a bed robe*

Everyone watches anxiously.

Malikai went to SkekSo, he held his hand*

SkekSo breaths were shaking, weak, and raspy.

SkekUng looks at the others: Neal, bow.

Everyone did as they were told and kneeled or bowed.

SkekSil went towards SkekSo: Emperor?

SkekSo turns to see SkekSil*

SkekSo- Skek.... Sil...

SkekSil: Please don't die emperor, who will take over your place?

SkekSo- You... Chamberlain...

SkekUng was shocked*

Zanobia- Ooh.

Zanobia looks at SkekUng's face.

Jason looks at SkekUng: Hey don't be jelly dude.

SkekSo continues to breathe shakily as he could feel the life being pulled out of him.

SkekSo looks at the others to say some final words*

SkekSo- I... Wish you all... Luck on life.... Without.... Me..

Malikai and the others are sad to hear that*

SkekSo lays his head back and breathes his final shakey breath before he closes his eyes and promptly crumbles to dust.

Tops gasped: What happened to him? ):>

Zanobia- He faded Tops. He's passed.

Pentol- And so did his Mystic counterpart.

Tops was scared: Am I going to crumble like that when I die? ):>

Zanobia- What? No Tops, don't be silly. Weasels don't crumble.

Tops: Ohhhh.

SkekSil holds SkekSo's scepter: Let's bury SkekSo's remains outside, he deserves a nice funeral.

Everyone nods as they gathered his ashy remains, placing them in a black, smooth urn before they walk outside.

Tigs and SkekNa dig a hole for SkekSo's grave*

Zanobia gives the urn filled with ashes to SkekUng who places the smooth object into the hole before he gestures Tigs and SkekNa to neatly bury it back up.

Tigs and SkekNa nodded and bury the dirt gently*

Everyone watched them bury the urn until it was completely buried to the top.

Ludel came with a gravestone*

Everyone solemnly watches as he gently places it down above SkekSo's grave.

Tops was crying*

Zanobia hugs him and rubs his back.

Zanobia- It's okay. It's okay...

Loretta pats Malikai's shoulder*

Malikai: *sigh* Care to say something about their memories with SkekSo?

They nod.

Tigs came up first: Well SkekSo has been a really great emperor, he gave the other skeksis what their jobs are around the castle.

Zanobia- He even guided us on several problems , always helped , consoled , comforted , and even loved us. He was like another father to us.

Pentol: I agree as well.

Jason: Me too.

Morty: Me three.

Ludel: Me four.

Tops cries: *crying* SkekSo gave me great gifts, it won't be the same without him! *cries*

Zanobia hugs him even more.

SkekUng is really upset that SkekSil is emperor, SkekSil sees this*

SkekSil: You know General, I could use a council by my side, how would you like to be by my side as my new Chamberlain/General?

SkekUng- (Smiles) A general would be just fine for me. I am honored.

Malikai sees this: Looks like SkekUng is happy. *but he remembers something* Wait, I remember something after being trapped in stone.

Zanobia- You mean in the moon?

Malikai looks at the moon, he gasped, he remembers Nightmare Moon is still trapped there*

Zanobia- Yep. Nightmare Moon. Remember her?

Malikai: Yes, and we're going to bust her out of there.

Zanobia- How? Is there a summoning spell or something?

SkekTek has an idea*

Everyone looks at SkekTek.

Zanobia- What is it SkekTek?

SkekTek pulls out a spell that can free Nightmare Moon the next night*

Zanobia- Huh. Awesome.

Malikai: Then it's settled, tomorrow night, we'll free Nightmare Moon.
