HOME ISLAND OF MOUNT ORASANI -- PALACE THRONE ROOM
The next day, The Elders Gods and Goddess; Ames and Nadia, Cyrus and Ismene, Dimitris and Celia, Elias and Zenova, and Tithous, sits on their thrones.
[Christy Outfit]
Theseus and Christy standing nearby a pillar. Reverend Oracle Theoni, the head charge of the Reverend Oracles and the ornate temple, stands next to Elder Goddess Ismene.
The grand throne room double-doors opens; Duke Luovl and Lady Anita slowly walks into the throne room. The doors closes.
Christy whispers to Theseus. "Why is Reverend Oracle Theoni here, Theseus?"
"To seek the truth from Duke Luovl Lady Anita." Theseus whispered back to her.
Duke Luovl and Lady Anita slowly walks up to The Elders and bows at them.
"Duke Luovl? Lady Anita? We Elders assume that you are aware of the dangerous situation that is against Lady Christiana Mikaelson." Elder Goddess Celia tells them.
"We do. And you have our sincere apologies for our daughter's, Quinn's, malicious schemes." Duke Luovl said.
"Your daughter, Quinn, has attempted murder against my niece, twice. The fire explosion and a ski-masked hitwoman." The Elder Goddess Ismene told them.
Duke Luovl and Lady Anita exchange confused looks at each other and looks at The Elders again.
"We did not know of this. After we took away Quinn's title of Pevanshire Princess, she exiled herself." Lady Anita said.
The Elder Goddess Ismene exchange looks with Reverend Oracle Theoni.
Ismene looks at both Duke Luovl and Lady Anita. "Do you know where your daughter is?"
"We do not know." Duke Luovl said.
"Theoni?" Elder Goddess Ismene said in her lowered voice.
After detecting that Lady Anita told the truth not knowing where her daughter is, Reverend Oracle Theoni tells Ismene.
"Lady Anita speaks the truth, Your Highness Ismene." Reverend Oracle Theoni told Ismene in her lowered voice.
"Very well. Duke Luovl? Lady Anita? Your daughter, Quinn, will receive punishment for her crime of attempted murder." Elder Goddess Ismene told them.
"We understand, Your Highness." Duke Luovl said.
"You are dismissed." The Elder God Cyrus said.
Duke Luovl and Lady Anita bows at the Elders and walks away, exiting the throne room.
"Theseus?" Elder God Dimitris said.
Theseus walks up to the steps.
"Report back to Dementrio and Interpol Agent Jun Lee for updates on the conclusion of the investigation." Elder God Dimitris said.
"Will do, Your Majesty Tithous." Theseus said with a bow of his head and walks away.
"Christiana?" Elder God Tithous said.
Christy walks up to the steps.
"Go with Reverend Oracle Theoni to the ornate temple. She will assist you with your quick recovery." Elder God Tithous said.
"Yes, sir, Your Majesty Tithous." Christy said with a bow of her head.
Reverend Oracle Theoni gently walks down the four steps and walks up next to Christy.
And together, Reverend Oracle Theoni and Christy walks away, exiting the throne room.

Later that day, in a chamber room, Reverend Oracle Theoni has just injected Christy with a herbal concoction serum.
[Reverend Oracle Outfits]
Reverend Oracle Theoni and Christy sits on red satin pillows in cross-legged sitting position in front of each one.
"Just a minute as the herbal concoction serum takes effect in your system." Reverend Oracle Theoni said.
"So, the serum will clear out what's left of the mercury toxin in my body?" Christy asked.
"It will." Reverend Oracle Theoni replied. "My sincere apologies for taking it this long to prepare."
"It's okay." Christy said. "Thank you, Theoni."
"You are welcome, my dear." Reverend Oracle Theoni said.
"Are all of you here at the ornate temple are aware of what's been going on lately?" Christy asked.
"We are aware." Reverend Oracle Theoni responded. "It is why we pray for strength and balance."
"Oh, okay." Christy said. "Thanks for the serum."
"You are welcome again, my dear." Reverend Oracle Theoni said.
Christy gets up and walks away, exiting the ornate temple.

That afternoon, Christy is with Nurse Giannis in the examination room. Christy sits in the examination chair and Nurse Giannis checks her vitals on the holographic computer screen.
"Everything's good. The mercury toxin has cleared out of your system. Your blood cells are normal again." Nurse Giannis told Christy. "How did this happen?"
"Reverend Oracle Theoni prepared a serum." Christy told Giannis.
"Okay." Nurse Giannis said. "You're medically cleared and you can attend to your recovery."
"Yippee." Christy said with an excited smile.
And Nurse Giannis chuckles to herself.

HOME ISLAND OF MOUNT ORASANI -- STUDY OFFICE
Christy is with her parents Ames and Nadia. She gave them her progress report.
Ames, Nadia and Christy sits in armchairs facing each other.
"Nurse Giannis has medically cleared you. You no longer have mercury toxin in your system." Nadia said.
"Reverend Oracle Theoni prepared a serum and it cleared out the mercury toxin in my system, so, I'm all good now." Christy said.
"Even though, you've made progress on your full recovery, you are still in danger." Elder God Ames said.
"Yeah, Quinn." Christy said. "Has she been found yet?"
"Not as of yet. But she's doing good at keeping her head down." Nadia said.
A gentle knock is on the door.
"Come on in." Nadia said.
The door opens; Theseus slowly walks inside. "Milord Ames? Milady Nadia? Lady Christiana?"
"What is it?" Ames said.
"Quinn has AWOL and a poisonous canister has been stolen." Theseus told them.
Ames, Nadia and Christy exchange worried looks at each other.
"The Task Force will handle it." Ames said.
"I'll tell Zenith, Thalia, and Max Christy said.

In the grand foyer, The Task Force; Zenith, Thalia, Max and Christy are wearing their task force uniforms.
[Zenith's and Max's
Tactical Uniform]
[Thalia's and Christy's
Tactical Uniform]
"So, Quinn stole a poisonous canister?" Zenith said.
"Theseus told me and my parents." Christy said.
"I assume that she's planning on using it to destroy." Max said.
"With Quinn AWOL, she's not thinking straight." Christy said.
"Christy?" Thalia said.
"By the way, I'm all good. The mercury toxin is out of my system. And Nurse Giannis has medically cleared me, so, I'm healthy, happy and well."
"Congratulations." Zenith said. "We can celebrate when we return back."
"Yeah, pizza and beer." Max said.
"And ginger ale for the kids." Christy said.
"Pizza party." Zenith, Thalia, Max and Christy said in unison with a small smile.
"We're having a pizza party?" Irene said with the other kids group.
Zenith, Thalia, Max and Christy looks at their children.
"Yeah, we're having a pizza party when we get back." Max said.
"Just be careful." Marion said.
"We will be, Mar." Max said.
Max and Marion shares a father- daughter fist bump.
"We'll get started on the pizzas. We'll cook two or three." Damien said.
"Take turns." Thalia said.
"Auntie Gia will help." Luna said.
The kids walks away.
Christy looks up at the staircase railing at Klaus. Klaus looks at her. The husband and wife exchange small smiles at each other.
Zenith, Thalia, Max and Christy walks away, exiting the chateau.
⚜️⚜️
HOME ISLAND OF MOUNT ORASANI -- ABANDONED WAREHOUSE
After locating Quinn's location, Zenith, Thalia, Max and Christy finds Quinn, who holds a canister filled with poisonous gas.
"Quinn? Drop it? Now?!" Max exclaimed.
"No, I have nothing?! Do you understand?! I have nothing?! Quinn told.
"Quinn?" Christy said.
"Don't speak to me, Christiana?! It is you who overshadows me?! You're the favorite." Quinn said.
Christy gently lowers her blaster rifle.
"Christy?" Thalia said.
"It's okay, you guys." Christy said.
Dementrio and Interpol Agent Jun Lee shows up with three Orasanian Guardsmen.
"Stand down." Christy said.
Quinn and Christy exchange looks at each other.
"Quinn? I know how you feel." Christy said. "As of right now, you feel like you have lost everything; your princess title, and your legendary reputation as The Crimson Warrior."
"Because of you?!" Quinn exclaimed.
"You tried to kill me. Twice. The fire explosion at the chateau and the ski-masked hitwoman. We know you were the mastermind behind it." Christy said. "But Quinn, when I was my dark alter ego, I almost destroyed innocent people. The thing is, I have no control over my dark-side. I was exiled from Mount Orasani too."
Quinn looks surprised at Christy.
"Yeah, I was exiled by my own parents. Quinn, when my dark-side emerged for the first time, I tried to kill my husband, my family in-laws, and my best friends." Christy said.
Zenith, Thalia, Max and Christy exchange glances at each other.
"And when it was all over, my mother exiled me from my home and took my magic as punishment. I felt depressed and sad. But I had a chance to atone for my actions as my Dark Enchantress." Christy told Quinn.
Quinn becomes teary-eyed.
"Quinn? I know you're a good person. And if you release that poisonous canister, everyone here in his room will die, and so will everyone else here, including your parents." Christy told her.
Quinn looks at Christy with a tear rolls down her cheek.
"You won't be able to forgive yourself if you kill people and your parents just because of some crazy-ass envy against me." Christy said.
"What will happen if I surrender myself?" Quinn asked.
"You will be apprehended for the crimes you committed; trying to murder me twice." Christy said. "Dementrio?"
"You will receive jail time for the crimes you have committed against the Chief Advisor, but in doing so, your legendary reputation as The Crimson Warrior will be tainted and ruined." Dementrio told Quinn.
"When you are released from the jailhouse, you will have a chance to redeem yourself as Princess of the Pevanshire stronghold." Jun Lee added.
"Please, Quinn, I'm asking you to not do this." Christy said.
Quinn gently puts the biohazard canister back in a duffel bag.
Interpol Agent Jun Lee walks up to Quinn and cuffs her with zip-ties and escorts her away.
Zenith, Thalia, Max and Christy exchange relieved looks at each other.

HOME ISLAND OF MOUNT ORASANI -- THE FRENCH CHATEAU
Later that night, Klaus and Christy and co.; are sitting at the table with their food and drinks, with the kids enjoying the pizza party.
"Christy? What you did, talking Quinn out of doing something dangerous? That was bold of you." Thalia said.
"I did a lot of bad things that I'm happy about, but I atoned for them." Christy said.
"You're a softie." Zenith said.
Everyone chuckles to themselves and Klaus pecks a kiss on Christy's cheek.
Christy's phone buzzes on the table. She picks it up and looks at it.
Caller ID: Theseus
Christy answers her phone and puts it on speakerphone. "Theseus? You're on speakerphone."
"I have good news. With Quinn in custody, you are no longer in danger, Christiana. The dangerous threat against you is over." Theseus told her on the speakerphone.
"Alright, thank you, Theseus. For everything. I owe you." Christy said.
"You do not owe me anything, Lady Christiana. I look forward to seeing you in the next conference meeting." Theseus said.
"Alright, you too." Christy said.
And Theseus hangs up his phone.
"So, you're good, Christy? It's over?" Klaus asked.
"Yeah, it's all over." Christy said.
Everyone exchange small smiles at each other and enjoys the rest of the night.
