The Chosen approached the cabin where the time spell was, and realized there were many guards surrounding it.
Atlas; I love a good challenge.
Celeste: What do we do?
Lily: We silently take them out. If we make any noise, Amara will know that we have come back.
Atlas, Lily, Evelyn and Lucian approached the 8 guards. Quickly, Atlas knocked both guards with a blast of electricity. On the other side, Lily was using her earth powers to turn them into stone, and Evelyn knocked 3 of the guards unconscious with a large wave.
Keyren; *humming to mission impossible theme* LETS GOOO TEAM
Quickly, the ten friends ran inside while Peter stood outside.
Jax: aren't you coming?
Peter: I'll stay here and keep watch. We don't want anyone blowing your cover.
The friends gathered around the table where the blue beacon shone. Without hesitation, they joined hands and channeled all of their powers to break the time spell.
Harley: it's done. Now what?
Celeste: We only have 4 hours to accomplish our mission. All of the houses are in this area. If we can get them to join quickly and quietly, we could charge Amara head on.
Jax: That means we have to split up....
Lucian: We don't have time to go one at a time. It would be more efficient if we split up.
Celeste: Let's meet at the village center yeah? We can go from there.
The team nodded and quickly went their separate ways. Keyren felt the hairs on his neck as he heard the clock tower strike one. Dawn was a few hours away and he feared there would be no time.
In the castle, Amara smirked as she saw the blue beacon disappear. She would send her watch dogs on them, plus the army from the Shadow Isles. She was equally confident about her daughters abilities.
"Send them out." She grinned wickedly.
An army of very large wolves ran out of the gates, and headed towards the many friends. Atlas sensed another evil presence, and sent a lightening bolt to his friends. Quickly, his friends and the people he rallied met at the village center, which was ways away from the castle.
Lily; What is it?
Atlas: There's something evil in the air...
Evelyn; Rogues...
Adrian: Come again?
Peter: Wolves that have no pack. They are Amara's immortal watch dogs.
Emiliae: Evelyn..... it is now time for you to take the pack. You are of age, and are people have been waiting for a long time....
Evelyn nodded before letting out a loud howl. Her eyes turned golden, and fangs began to form.
Keyren; W- what just happened?
Evelyn; I, the Luna, just claimed my place and my people have come to fight with us.
Harley: Dope.
Celeste; Let's waste no time shall we? Let's unite the shields of unity.
Keyren lifted the shields with a flick of his wrist, and Celeste used her light powers. The crowd watched in amazement as the six shields conformed into one large silver shield with all 6 house crests. Within moments, people emerged from the woods, prepared to battle.
Peter; it worked.
Celeste then raised her scepter high in the air, swung it towards the lake. A green light filled the lake, and many good soilders from the Shadow Isles emerged, ready to fight.
Adrian: What's next?
Evelyn: We fight for the Realm... and we kill Amara.
At that moment, Amara used her powers to multiply the watch dogs. She flicked her wrist towards the graveyard, and many deceased people began to March toward the other army.
Lucian: What do we do?
Ember: our swords of light! We fight with those!
The group stood for a moment, swords and minds ready for the greatest battle of all time.
Celeste: I know that we have united the people to our cause, but it's important that we all stick together, and stay close. If we fall, we all fall. We are the symbol of unity.
The group glanced at the castle, where Amara and Cia stood in shock at the large number. However, Amara smiled wickedly at another thought. She would have them stay alive as long as she was alive.
"Let them come." Amara spoke "They don't stand a chance."
Peter: Any last words to lead your people Celeste:
Celeste turned towards the people and raised her scepter. "FOR ANALA!"
"FOR ANALA!"
"FOR ANALA!"
"FOR THE CHOSEN!" Peter yelled as loud as he could.
"FOR THE CHOSEN!" The army shouted with pride. Celeste turned towards her friends, and whispered one last thing.
"Together?"
"Always." Evelyn responded.

You can now listen to the following track as you read if you like lol
The Chosen ran forward with their swords ready to attack. However, the battle did not go as easily as they thought. The deceased and watch dogs came with full force, and there were many. Jax looked around at his friends and comrades, there were so many enemies, he couldn't keep count. Because of the amount of enemies, everyone quickly got separated. Celeste, began to make her way to the top of the castle where Amara waited for her. Evelyn saw Celeste's hair sway among the battle field, and followed her, per her request. Evelyn did her best to defend herself, but she was an extra target to the watch dogs. On the other side of the castle, Adrian fought with Ember against the deceased.
"Please Mom. Send us your help." He thought internally. "We need it now more than ever."
Lucian, Atlas, Jax, and Lily all fought together side by side. Lucian thought for a moment that they would actually be able to manage, until Lucian became worried.
"Where is Evelyn?" He said, panic could be heard in his voice.
"Wait where's Celeste?" Jax asked as well.
Suddenly, a watch dog ran straight towards Lucian, and there was no time for Lucian to run. Quickly, Lily used her earth powers to throw it far away.
"We need to find them." Atlas said. "We all need to find them to save the day."
Lucian saw Harley and Keyren fighting together against a couple of watch dogs. He hollered for them to quickly follow as they made their way to the castle.
Evelyn and Celeste were halfway up the castle, when they stopped to catch their breath behind a wall.
"If anything should happen to me." Celeste began. "I want you to take over as Queen of Anala."
"What??? Are you crazy?" Evelyn whispered.
Celeste pled with her eyes, and Evelyn nodded in agreement, promising to do everything in her power.
Quickly, they continued to run towards the top, until a watch dog bit Evelyn on the calf. Immediately, Celeste blasted the creature, and helped Evelyn to her feet.
"Come on! Let's go!" Evelyn yelled over the noise. She knew that the two of them couldn't fight on their own, and so a tear slipped down her cheek. Evelyn delicately grabbed the perfectly round tear, and held it at eye level.
"Help. I need everyone's help. At the top of the castle. Hurry." Evelyn yelled before multiplying the tear into thousands of tears that rained down from the heavens.
"We are almost there." Celeste remarked.
Harley and Keyren noticed the first couple drops of rain, and they exchanged glances with one another.
"Do you think-"
"Look!" Jax said.
"Help! I need everyone's help! At the top of the castle. Hurry!" Evelyn's voice echoed throughout the land.
Lucian fought harder than ever, there was no way that he would lose his beloved again. He smelt her scent through her tears, and already missed her deeply. They group finally made it to the halfway Mark, and hoped they weren't too late.
Evelyn and Celeste had now reached the top, where Amara and Cia waited for them.
"Take this." Celeste commanded, while handing over the Shield of Unity.
"Are you insane?" Evelyn whispered. "You won't-"
"I've got the sword of light and the scepter. I'll be fine. Wait for the opportune moment."
Evelyn nodded as she took the shield. If Celeste died, she would have to take her place
Celeste stepped from the shadows, and a large grin spread across Amara's face.
"It's about time you showed up. It's rude to keep someone waiting."
"There's no need for war. There's so many casualties already."
"The last casualty ends with your head on a stick." Amara sneered.
"And I as Queen." Cia remarked, stepping in front of the disguised Evelyn.
"You can't have a kingdom without people." Celeste argued. "Your kingdom will be nothing."
Amara growled in annoyance. "Let's finish this shall we? Cia darling! Come join us!"
Cia began to walk forward, but felt a searing pain go through her heart. Her eyes scanned down to her abdomen where a sword poked out of. Immediately, Evelyn pulled out the sword, and Cia fell down deceased. Celeste took the time to strike, but Amara blocked her with her own sword.
Cia's ghost rose out from her body, and began to duel Evelyn.
Celeste and Amara began to duel a fierce battle, one that had to be done within an hour.
Suddenly, shooting stars rained down from the heavens, and Mera, Tara, and Kara all stood in front of the remaining group.
Harley: it's about time you showed up.
Mera smiled before snapping her fingers. The group now found themselves on the outskirts of Celeste and Amara's battle.
The group gasped as Cia disappeared giving enough time for Evelyn to break Amara's sword, and give her a small wound. However, Cia appeared, and sent Evelyn flying towards the group. Immediately, Lucian to action and went to catch Evelyn.
"It's time for the real battle Amara. Light versus darkness." Celeste spoke as she held out her scepter.
"Fine." Amara smirked. "As long as it results in your death."
The two of them pointed their scepters towards eachother, and two mists collided. Celeste's was white, and Amara's was pitch black.
"The rising sun!" Jax yelled. "We only have moments before it's over. We either lose or we win."
"Point your swords towards the sky!" Ember shouted.
Celeste's hands began to tremble. She was getting weaker and weaker,and wouldn't last much longer. She suddenly heard Ember's shout, and was filled with hope.
"We are missing one!" Atlas yelled.
"That's impossible!" Evelyn said"All of ours are here except Celeste's!"
Everyone's eyes widened as they realized what was at stake. They had only two minutes before the sun would fully rise into the sky. Cia quickly used her powers to grab Celeste's sword out her weak hand and sent it towards her mother. Keyren and Harley grabbed each other's hands, and Harley extended his hand for the group to take. Everyone understood that they needed to channel their powers to regain the sword.
Amara struggled to keep the sword in her hand, but they had more power, and the sword flew into Keyren's hand.
"NOW!" Evelyn screamed
The Chosen and the rightful Queen pointed their weapons towards Amara as the sun began to rise. Within moments, Amara and her army were nothing more than particles of air, never to come to existence ever again.
When Amara was defeated, The Chosen sunk to the ground, exhausted. Ember noticed another shooting star that began to descend down towards them.
Annalyn: Heroes of the Realm. You have saved Anala. Your mission, is finished.
