{Christy's Outfit}
"Zenith asked for my help to accompany him to the Ruins of Fortress of Ida. Obviously, I don't trust him. But I wanted to contact you for any of your opinions." Christy said with her arms folded.
"You already know that Zenith's a wicked Elder God, Christy." Ames said to his daughter. "He's smart, mischievous, menace. And he will turn on you when he gets the chance."
"I know that, Dad." Christy replied.
"But it's up to you, Christiana." Celia said to her granddaughter.
Christy looks at Zenova. "Zenova?"
"It is your choice to make." Zenova said.
Christy sighs to herself. "Okay, thanks you."
Ames, Nadia, Celia, Zenova nodded and magically fades away.

In Klaus's and Christy's bedroom, Christy has packed up her twin bronze swords and uses her enhanced speed to sped downstairs in the courtyard.
"You're really gonna do this?" Klaus asked. "Accompany Zenith to the ruins of Fortress of Ida?"
"Klaus? We talked about this." Christy said to him. "I changed my mind about you and Elijah going with me because Zenith is stronger than both of you and Elijah combined."
"I'm not gonna let you go alone." Klaus said, slowly walked up to her.
"Niklaus is right." Elijah said, slowly walks up to both Klaus and Christy. "He and I will accompany you."
"Okay." Christy replied.
"Mom?" Luna said from the second floor railing beside Trinity. Christy looks up at her first daughter. "Please, be careful."
"I will." Christy said, gently takes her off her green necklace and tosses it up to Trinity.
Trinity catches the green necklace in her hands.
"Safe keep it for me you two." Christy said to her daughters.
"Yes, ma'am." Luna and Trinity said in unison.
Klaus, Christy and Elijah walks away. Luna and Trinity exchange worried looks at each other. And Trinity looks at their mother's necklace.

LARUE SAFE HOUSE
Klaus, Elijah and Christy walks onto the private jet. Zenith looks at them.
"I didn't think you were gonna show up, Christy. And you've brought your beloved husband and your brother-in-law." Zenith said.
"My husband and brother-in-law are protective." Christy said, and walks up to Zenith. "I've known you since I was a child, Zenith. I may not know what you're up to when we arrive at the ruins of Fortress of Ida, but whatever it is, I have my eye on you."
"How can you keep an eye on me when you will be occupied with other things when we arrive at the ruins of Fortress of Ida?" Zenith asked her.
"I won't." Christy said, and glances at Klaus and Elijah. "But they will."
Christy slowly walks away. And Zenith slowly walks after her.

RUINS OF FORTRESS OF IDA
That afternoon, Zenith and Christy are in the cockpit. He's sitting in the pilot's chair and she's sitting in the co-pilot chair.
"Up ahead." Christy said, looking at the grassland. "We can land there."
"I know." Zenith replied.
Zenith lands the private jet on the grassland and opens the ramp.
"You still haven't told me why you wanted me to accompany you here at ruins of fortress of Ida." Christy said to him, getting up to her feet.
Zenith gets up to his feet, strapping his bronze sword to him. "You will know." and walks away.
Christy slowly walks up to Klaus and Elijah, having already suspicious of Zenith's wicked intentions.
"Klaus? Elijah? Stay here." Christy said. "Something's not right."
"We know." Klaus said, having become suspicious of Zenith as well.
Christy slowly walks away from her husband and brother-in-law. And the ramp closes automatically.
⚜️⚜️
Zenith and Christy walks slowly inside the fortress ruins. But Christy stops walking and pulls out her bronze sword, causing Zenith to stop walking himself and turns around to look at her.
"I know why you brought me here." Christy said, having just figured out Zenith's wicked scheme. "You lured me away from my husband and Elijah, so, you can leave me here to die."
Zenith looks at Christy and sly grins, implying she's right. "I knew you were gonna figure it out. But there is something here that I want."
"Which is what exactly?" Christy asked. "There's nothing here but trees, leaves and bushes?"
Zenith magically summons a mystical prism to the palm of his hand. "I assume you know what this is."
"It's a magical prism artifact." Christy told him. "I can't let you take that, Zenith."
"Well, it is mine. I made this prism myself, so, yes, I am taking this." Zenith replied.
"But you're gonna use your magical object for wicked intentions. So, I'm taking it." Zenith said.
And Zenith looks at Christy with a menace glint in his eyes. "And how, exactly, are you gonna stop me?"
"I'll figure something out." Christy said, gently drops her bronze sword on the granite floor.
Zenith gently sets down his magical prism on a flat rock, and uses his enhanced speed to sped over to Christy to a granite wall.
Christy knees Zenith in his stomach, and punches him in his face with her fist, causing him to stumble back a little, but he recovers and backslaps Christy, making her falls onto the granite floor.
Zenith then, walks up to Christy and steps on her leg, causing her to scream out in agony pain.
Zenith straddles Christy, choking her with both hands. "You're gonna wish I wasn't released from my realm."
Christy tries to loosen Zenith's hands. And suddenly, Zenith is slung away from her by Klaus.
Zenith hits the wall and is knocked out, unconscious, laying on the granite ground.
"Get away from my wife." Klaus told Zenith.
"Klaus?" Christy said.
"You were gone for a long while. Elijah and I gotten worried." Klaus said, crouched down to her. "Are you alright?"
"Yeah." Christy said to him. "My leg."
"We're getting out of here." Klaus said to her.
Zenith regains his conscious and scowls.
Klaus and Christy exchange looks at each other. Suddenly, Klaus gets his neck snap, knocking him out by Zenith.
"Klaus?" Christy said.
But Zenith grabs Christy in a chokehold and holds her back to him, with her back to his chest.
Klaus regains conscious and looks at Zenith. And slowly gets back up to his feet.
Elijah vamp-speed beside Klaus. "Niklaus? Christiana?"
"Hand over my prism." Zenith said to both Klaus and Elijah, holding Christy in a headlock. "Hand it over now, or I'll destroy Christiana."
Klaus looks at the prism and picks it up in his hand. "Let my wife go first."
"Let me make something clear to the both of you. You will hand over my prism or Klaus, I will destroy your beloved wife and the mother of your daughters in front of you." Zenith threatened Klaus.
"Klaus, don't." Christy said. "Zenith's prism is a magical artifact. He can use it to disintegrate anyone if he chooses."
Klaus looks at the prism in his hand and looks at Zenith.
"Hand it to me." Zenith said to Klaus.
"I said to let my wife go, Zenith." Klaus said to him.
Zenith gently lets go of Christy and she falls into Klaus's arm. Klaus tosses Zenith his prism artifact and Zenith catches it in his hand.
But Elijah vamp-sped over to Zenith, knocking him out with a neck snap. And Zenith falls onto the granite ground, unconscious.
Elijah picks up the prism and looks at Klaus and Christy. "Let's leave this place."
