Electra was very angry that once again that fairy of Domino got away once again! She was even angrier at Icy. Icy seems weak without her sisters even though she doesn't admit it, she misses them at times. She turn around to the ice witch who was having fun toturing the dragons.

"Fly! You stupid dragons! Fly!" Icy screamed wickedly. Electra glared at her. She frown suddenly as she felt something shift in the air. More help has arrive. Electra turn around to see a swarm of hunting ships. In those ships are the most wanted criminials she personally hired. They are best known as fairy hunters for they are opsess with their wings unlike the Wizards of the Black Circle.

"Stop your foolishness!" Electra zapped Icy, sending her crashing to the ground.

"Hey!" Icy snapped, her fists turning icy by the minute.

"I will strike you down in one blow if you deified me right now, you'll be dead. Is that understood?" Electra snarled at the witch's face who actually shut up. The ice witch look up as the ships began to land. Creatures from all shapes and sizes came out; they were the best of the best. One step forward, a black scaly lizard with a leather belt wrap around it's waist, holding all sorts of weaponries.

"Mistress?" It knelt down before them. Icy smile wicked and was about to speak when Electra put an electric dome around her.

"What the---?"

Electra gave her a smile.

"Do you honestly think I was going to let you come with me the rest of the way. I don't think so!" Electra said.

"But you need me. If it wasn't for me, YOU wouldn't be alive!" Icy shouted.

"My faithful servant here did found a way to bring me back before you witches came along. So either way, I would be still alive," Electra turned her gaze back to her bounty hunter. Icy scream in frustration, as she began to pound her fists against the electric barrier.

Electra was starting to get annoy with the witch. She and her sisters were a disgrace to what the Ancestral Witches were! Sure they could be helpful in getting what she needed. But the last two artifacts could not be found at all on both Earkylon and Domino! She needed the ancient artifacts to create a bomb. A bomb that can destroy half of the magical universe bringing the other half under her control.

"Put this on her," she said handing a thick copper collar to the bounty hunter. His scaly fingers snatch it and walk over to the ice witch. His tongue flick out, tasting the air before pulling out a lethal dart and stabbing her in the neck. Icy gasped as she fell to her knees.

"What did you do to me, lizard?!" Icy's screams were cut short as the thick collar close shut around her neck. The collar was squeezing her airways. Icy's mouth open and close and open again.

Electra knelt beside her, frowning slightly before putting on a blank, emotionless face.

"I told you, your services are not needed anymore. Such a pity and a waste....You could have been a good apprentice of mine. Once you stop breathing, the collar would start to encase you in a cocoon. Once that happens, you'll turn to dust. Oh, don't worry, your sisters will join you in the afterlife very soon. I must leave, my bomb can't destroy anything without the two last artifacts. To make this less painful, Cybor!" Electra called out to a small, scrawny elf. He has gray skin, black hair, red eyes, and wears a black scarf over his mouth. He wears a gray tunic over rip black trousers. He is barefoot and carries a black pouch around a red string use as a belt. He stuck a finger in his pouch and pull out a needle slowly.

"Good choice, Cybor," Electra agreed to the mute elf. Let just say you don't want to see his mouth, his mouth is always bloody from the hunt and he has rows after rows of needle-like-teeth. The needle is made out of a poisonous sap and poisonous grass weeds that can be found in any witch swamp. Just one prick from the needle, you're dead in a second.

Cybor touch the tip of the needle against the surface of Icy's neck. That was all it took, for the venom to work. No sooner had the needle touch her, she's dead.

"Thank you Cybor, may I see it for a moment?" Electra asked. Cybor raised a skeptical eyebrow, before giving it to her. Electra made the needle float above her hand and use her free hand to stretch the ends out more. Then she flick straight at the elf, who didn't have a chance to save himself. The needle pierce through his skull and out of his chest. The time it went through his skull, it kill him right there.

Electra turn around to the bounty hunters. "Group 1 will go to Earth, Group 2 will go the Magix, Group 3 will go to Earkylon, Group 4 will go to Domino, and Group 5 will come with me."

The bounty hunters spilt into their groups and went into their ships. What they didn't know, a certain someone hack into the ships' computers setting the self destruct mode on. The bounty hunters will know until the last second.

As Electra turn to leave at the same time, all of the ships were preparing to take off when they exploded. Electra was knock down by the flaming metal debris.

Once the smoke clear, an enrage Electra flew up and let out a bloodcurdling scream, shattering everything that was in 50 mile radius of her.

The person who hack into the ships' computers smirk behind a boulder before jumping down into a tunnel.

The small group look up from fire to the person coming in.

"Well?" King Oritel asked.

"Come on, Timmy, spill it out!" Riven said, coming over. Timmy smile, causing everyone to erupt in cheers. Tecna hug her husband in relief.

"Timmy, don't you ever, EVER, do that again! Next time, I'm coming with you!" Tecna said. Timmy laugh.

"So what now?" James asked.

"We break all hell loose," Sky said, from the back of the cave. Bloom and the twins were sleeping.

"How do you propose we do that? We can't defeat her!" Brandon reminded his best friend.

"We have what she wants," Bloom said sleepily. "My birth medallion and Sky's birth medallion. What if we destroy them, she can't make her bomb."

"She's right," Queen Mariam said.

"It's worth a shot," Musa said, helping Bloom sit up.

"Yeah, we all agree on this," Helia added, smiling down at Flora.

"Sky? What do you say?" Bloom asked him. Sky look at her carefully. They been low on food and they were on their last rations. Bloom has gotten thin over the past couple of days. He wish he had more time, but it seems the Great Dragon has other plans. He pinch the bridge of his nose briefly before replying.

"We better hurry. We don't have much time," Sky finally said before leaving his friends to form a plan.

He sat down beside his wife. She wearily lay her head on his shoulder. It was killing him to see his belove losing strength. But she has put on a brave face in front of him. She has to be strong for the sake of their children's survival.

"How long?" Sky asked. Bloom lift her head up to face him.

"How much longer will you keep using your magic to sustain yourself? Even I know, you will collapse from exhaustion," he said, cupping her face. Bloom's eyes began to droop down, alarming Sky.

"Hey, hey! Come on, stay awake!" He slapped her face lightly. Bloom groan before looking up at Sky. Her throat was hurting, as well as being parch from the lack of any liquids.

"I don't have much longer, Sky," she said hoarsely before closing her eyes completely.

"Stella!" Sky called the blonde fairy.

"What's wrong with Bloom?" Stella asked as she knelt beside them.

"We need to get back home, now," Sky said firmly before the cave began to shake
