"The Heart of Lotus"

In Novaria a day before Enigma's disciple attacked the kingdom, Queen Victoria asks her trusted disciple the priestess of Novaria.

"Criselda, this is the Corazon de Loto," Queen Victoria said then she handed to the priestess the lotus flower that glows consistently.

"But how did you get this? This is from the mortal world?" Criselda said.

"Yes, this will help the guardians to unite and you will have to find Mary Rose and give this to her no matter what happens." Queen Victoria said.

"But why did you do this, your highness?" Criselda said.

"I feel, that my time will end soon and my daughter is not yet ready to become the Queen of Novaria." She said and Criselda hugged her and said this.

"Don't say that Your Highness, your daughter was so brave, just like you," Criselda said.

In the past the human world,

Marcella's ancestor was trying to find the Corazon de Loto.

"The Corazon De Loto was missing," The leader of the clan said.

"We can't find it anywhere," Marcella's mom said then slowly Marcella slowly approached her grandpa and said.

"Grandpa I saw it in my vision, before this happens a mysterious woman grabs the heart of Lotus and she's no extraordinary. She's not from this world." Marcella said.

"Might be, a banshee?" Marcella's mom said.

"I can't tell. I am not so sure?" Marcella said and then her grandfather ordered his men to find the Corazon de Loto.

Present time>>>

Ona and her friends went outside to see Nancy's mom.

"Are you serious about this Ona?" Minh said.

"She must know that her daughter was almost killed and her daughter needs her," Ona said, and when they stepped into a building they proceeded to the mayor's office.

"Good morning, Mr. Mayor," Ona said as she removed her shades when the mayor saw her and her team.

"What I can do for you miss?" The mayor said.

"Show your true form, Miss Cruz. We all know that you control the entire city." Ona said.

"I don't like the words that came from your mouth dear child, but your bravery convinces me." The mayor said the mayor's appearance changed and they all saw the true form of the shapeshifter.

"So, what's the reason why you guys came up here?" Marcella said sitting in the mayor's chair at the same time.

"Nancy was in trouble; my sister was almost killed but she is recovering now," Ona said.

"Hmm! I know now who you are, you are the daughter of the Lotus lady. Interesting!" Marcella said and smiled at her at the same time then suddenly a voice behind them said this.

"She doesn't care about me at all and you are wasting your time on that monster!" said a familiar voice and when they turned around, they saw Nancy.

"What are you doing here? it is very dangerous you are not fully recovered" Arthur said.

"Arthur is right Nancy; you shouldn't be here as your aunt is in interrogation mode with Miss Lene," Jennie said.

"You don't know what you guys are doing, she's very dangerous," Nancy said then suddenly Marcella disappeared and they heard a laugh that they couldn't find as Marcella's voice echoed inside the room.

"Follow me!" Nancy said while she was trying to open the door it seemed that they were locked inside of the room.

"This is not a good," Nancy said.

"We are here to talk, not fight," Ona said.

"Don't you think that she will listen? I know here! she is my mom!" Nancy said and she immediately punched the door and because of what Nancy did, they were able to get out of the room successfully.

"Jennie, the shield!" Ona said.

"On it!" Jennie said and immediately Jennie used her ability to create a force field that covered her friends while they were running.

"The portal is ready," Minh said after he opened the portal in front of them and quickly they jumped into the portal. When they were inside the MIB.

"That was close!" Jennie said.

"Right, that was close, and If I didn't know that you guys' planning, that is a suicidal mission. Ona!" Nancy said as she was irritated with her friend's plan.

"This is all your plan, Ona! You bring them to death, you are thinking enough, my mom was a traitor and you don't know her at all." Nancy said angrily to her sister.

Meanwhile,

Mary Rose remembers everything from where she originally came from.

"Novaria," Mary Rose said.

"That's right, that is the world where you came from." Teacher Ryan said.

"I need to know what is happening to Novaria. But I can't leave my children and Luna especially right now she was in trouble." Mary Rose said.

"Well, you need to know what's really your heart wants, every decision, and every move has a result and you must be brave to accept those results." Teacher Ryan said. Mary Rose will ask the teacher when suddenly Ona and her friends approach them and say,

"Mama, Miss Luna is in trouble they will going to bring her to the chair of justice with my sister Nancy," Ona said.

"What?" Mary Rose said shockingly and they rushed to see Luna and Nancy.

When they reached the place where they saw Nancy and Luna their hands were handcuffed and their eyes were blindfolded. Immediately Mary Rose approaches Lene and asks what is happening to their investigation.

"They were found guilty," Lene replied,

"What do you mean guilty? Lene please explain to me?" Mary Rose said and Lene sighed before answering at the same time she looked into Mary Rose's eyes.

"They were found guilty; Luna confesses to the jury that she knows why her niece is here, to spy on us, all your mission is tracked by our enemies The dragon organization, Nancy also gave the codes to her mother and this is what happen why the city was quickly conquered by the Black Dragon Organization," Lene explains.

"I don't believe you; she must have a reason why she did this." Mary Rose said.

"She tried to stop her niece and her niece stopped but too late, Nancy was caught and tracked," Lene said.

"Tita Lene please, can we help them?" Ona said.

"For now, there's nothing that we can do. Let the leaders of MIB make their decision as the chair of justice will judge them if they will stay alive or the chair will remove the air that they were breathing." Lene said.

Then they all saw the leaders of MIB start to do something to Luna and Nancy.

"Nancy Saxon-Cruz and Luna Zhao, you were both found guilty of betraying the institute but you will still be given a chance as the two of you are on the chair of justice, are you guys ready?" The woman in violet said.

"She is Violet, the headmistress of MIB South HQ" Teacher Ryan said.

"Miss Violet checked this case already and she decided to give them a chance to change that why, Luna and Nancy are on the chair of justice.

"How does that wooden chair give them a chance?" Ona asks.

"That wooden chair that we saw right now was given by the goddess Dayea, and If I am not mistaken that chair will turn green if the accused is guilty and doesn't deserve another chance but that depends on their mistake. Am I right teacher?" Minh said.

"You're right Minh. When the accused is given another chance or deserves another chance there will be a small plant will grow on their body and these plants will cover their entire body for two days. After two days they will purify." Teacher Ryan said.

Dayea was the deity of silence and secrets in the Visayan religion and also an embodiment of justice and trust. She represents the unsaid story of the past associated with knowledge, wisdom, or intelligence and the key to all mystery.

Going back from the past...

Criselda brings the Corazon de Loto to the Saxon family but before she leaves she gives it to Marcella and warns the lady of the Saxon family that this thing will bring chaos when the heart of lotus will be used by the other who will use it for their interest.

"Are you the Banshee?" Marcella asks but Criselda smiles at her then she disappears. Then a black smoke suddenly possessed the lady of the Saxon family. Marcella's mom rushed to check on her daughter when she saw that her daughter was having a seizure.

"My daughter help! mama! papa!" Her mother shouts.

"Stay away from your daughter, she was cursed by the Corazon de Loto." Her grandfather said.

"Let me heal her," Her grandmother said then she held Marcella's hand and cast some spell.

Back to the present...

Everything was so fresh on Marcella's mind.

"Are you okay babe?" Ri asks. but Marcella didn't respond instead she saw that Marcella was thinking deeply.

"Are you worried about your daughter?" Ri asks again then Marcella replies and says.

"She can handle herself; Nancy was my weakness and I don't need her, especially for my goals. I don't want to be weak they must be scared of me when they see me. once I get the Corazon de Loto, I will be more powerful and everyone will be scared of me and kneel on me." Marcella said.

Then a dark figure intervened and said.

"That's my girl! and don't forget to kill the Lotus lady!" the dark figure said.

"Of course, madam Celestia," Marcella said and smiled at her.
