"AJAX"

The story begins in a small kingdom on the south side of Ayden where all the Citizens live peacefully, but they were terrified when the war happened ten years ago. The priestess of Novaria got an opportunity where she hid the heart of Gaia or the fourth piece of the scepter from Novaria.

"You can't hide from us!" The minions of Enigma said. It's a good thing that she has a pocket watch from Lucky to travel from another dimension between time and space.

"I don't think so," Criselda said and she manipulated the plants to cover her and asked the pocket watch to bring her to the keeper the fourth keeper of the piece of the scepter from Novaria. Then the portal opened and she immediately stepped into the portal.

TWENTY YEARS BEFORE

When Ajax was under attack by Sitan's minion. This is the time that zodiac hunters, Tyler, Theo, Catalina, and Jenna arrive at the small kingdom in the southside of Ayden.

"We have to make sure that Sitan will not escape at this time," Tyler said as he summons the power of Pisces. Then His brother Theo immediately cast a spell with his partner Catalina and in the meantime Jenna saw an opportunity to create a portal to bring their enemy away from the small kingdom of Ajax.

Meanwhile, in the kingdom of Ajax, the king and queen make a hard decision to save their daughter from Sitan's minions.

"King Alder and Queen Azalea, the castle is no longer safe we need to evacuate now." Their trusted royal guard said.

"Let's leave this castle now," King Alder said then they immediately created a portal that would lead them to the evacuation area where the other citizens were hiding. Before they left the ground suddenly was shaking and as they turned around, they saw a woman.

"The enigma." Queen Azalea.

"Hello dear Azalea, let's not prolong this. I am so tired of following you. If I were you. if you want to save your small kingdom, give me the heart of Gaia and give me your daughter." The woman said. The queen immediately took off her necklace and uttered a magical word.

"You want this? well, see if you will be happy if I remove the magic of this necklace." Queen Azalea said.

"No! What are you doing?" The woman said.

"Azalea what are you doing?" King Alder said.

"This has to end if the castle of Ayden is endangered right now, we need to help them by not allowing them to get this." The queen said

The queen immediately broke the necklace and they saw a green light coming out of the necklace and because of that the surroundings became even darker, the woman became even more angry, as she tried to attack the king and queen, but the soldier blocked her.

"King Alder leave it to me," The royal guard said as he tried to transform himself into a beast but the king stopped him and said,

"Leo, you have no match with the enigma. Let's go!" The king said and released a light beam towards the woman that immediately made the woman retreat.

PRESENT DAY:

"Cristy, where are you? The food is ready." Her mom said.

"I'm here mom, I just finished our laundry." The young Cristy said.

"How many times have I told you, you don't have to do the laundry, my child." Her mom said.

"Mom, it's okay besides my dream is to have a laundry business. I idolize you, Mom when you do the laundry in Georgina's house ~" She didn't finish what she said as her mom remembered something on that day.

"Oh god, I forgot this is the day when Madam Marie asks my help to prepare dinner for her birthday." Her mom said.

"I have to go; you need to finish your food." Her mom said.

"But mom today was your day off, right?" Cristy asks.

"Yes, but I make a promise to Marie. I have to go now, after you finish eating you can come to the mansion." Her mom said and immediately went to the mansion as her boss was looking for her.

"Is Julieta, is here already?" Madam Marie asks the other chambermaid pointing at her back then Julieta answers.

"I am here Madam Marie; I am sorry I almost forgot this day," Julieta said.

"Thank you, I thought you would forget this day, anyway let's go to the kitchen I need your help to prepare the Palabok," Marie said.

"Yes, Madam," Julieta said and they immediately went to the mansion's kitchen.

Going back to Cristy,

While she was cleaning the plates, she saw a withered plant she immediately approached and checked the soil when she noticed that the ground was dry.

"Looks like they forgot to give you water, wait," Cristy said and she immediately went to their kitchen and got some water from the water faucet after she got enough water went back to the plant and poured the water she had brought on the plant.

"Please don't die," Cristy said as she touched its leaves that were about to wither but she was stunned when she saw the plant acting weird. As she saw a new leaf grew on the plants which she saw earlier was about to wither.

Cristy retreated because of what she witnessed but she fell to the ground and when she touched the ground, small plants grew which shocked Cristy even more.

"Am I cursed by a witch?" She said and immediately went to her mom who is currently in the mansion of Gomez.

On another side of the story,

When Criselda reaches the year when Ajax was under attack, she sees in her own eyes what happened to the heart of Gaia and she immediately gets the necklace after the enigma left.

"The heart of Gaia was broken. And I know where you should hide." Criselda said and she grabbed the fourth piece of the scepter which is a greenish gem and she put it to the pendant.

"I summon the heart of Gaia to protect the fourth piece of the scepter from Novaria.

Make as one and become one." Criselda said and then a green light suddenly appeared from the air and immediately covered the necklace.

"Now, looks like Lucky's clock of destiny brought me here and the princess of Ajax was the fourth keeper," Criselda said and she followed the king and queen of Ajax. When she reached the place where the other citizens of Ajax were hiding, she saw that everyone was turned into a stone.

"No, no! The princess. I don't need a failure right now." She said as she saw the king and his men turned into a stone. She looked around the place when she noticed a light from the woods that she immediately checked to see.

Into the woods, Queen Azalea creates a portal that will lead her daughter to a safe place. as the shadow warriors of Sitan are approaching.

"I am so sorry my princess, I have to do this." She said and when she was about to let the vortex get the princess, Criselda showed herself and helped the Queen.

"The princess needs this for her protection," Criselda said and she gave the heart of Gaia to the Queen.

"But how? This is already broken; I broke it earlier." She said.

"Queen Azalea, I am Criselda the priestess of Novaria our worlds were in great danger, you have to trust me I am not an enemy. I revive the heart of Gaia and add some protection from our world." Criselda said.

"I believe in you because no one can enter the force field except if you have a pure intention. But the shield will collapse soon. Can you help me to secure my child?" Queen Azalea said.

"Let's do this," Criselda said and The Queen let the vortex get her child with the heart Gaia.

BACK TO PRESENT

Cristy saw her friend; Georgina was waiting for her.

"You are finally here, I am waiting for you. why do you take so long?" Georgina asks.

"Gina something weird is happening to me. Please help me. I am cursed by a witch a small plant suddenly grew when I touched my hands to the ground" Cristy said.

"What but why?" Georgina answered while her friend was really worried and Cristy grabbed her to their garden.

"Look," Cristy said and she put her palms on the ground while closing her eyes. In the meantime, Georgina was looking at her seriously. But nothing happens.

"See a plan~" She didn't finish what she wanted to say unlike earlier she saw a tiny plant growing when her palm was on the ground but now...

"Nothing?" She said.

"What do you mean nothing? You were just playing mud. Ate Juliet will be angry when she sees you doing that. Let me dress you up for my mom's birthday. Let's go but before that, we must go into the kitchen first. It seems you are hallucinating. I'm sure you're hungry."

"Please you have to believe me, Gina," Cristy said.

"No, you need to eat first, and let's take a bath. You're smelly now." Georgina said.

"Gina!" Cristy said.
