"THE WAR (PART ONE)"

"Where are we?" Mycka asks when she went to a place where she couldn't see anyone except her enemy.

"Sadama, what did you do? Where's the five leaders of Jamais?" Mycka asked again when she saw Sadama smiling at her.

"We are here in the spirit world, where those in the world of the living, see us standing like statues," Sadama said. And this is what happened in the world of living. Queen Aira and the leaders of the four kingdoms are so worried for Mycka. They tried a lot of spells to wake her up but it seemed that there were no spells that could help Lady Frost. Then they saw the necklace is lit up but they confused when the two-guest arrived. Alban was immediately alarmed and prepared his weapon against the two women, while Samuel and Samantha prepared themselves for the guests who had arrived.

"Who are you?" Alban asked the two women who immediately introduced themselves to him.

"My name is Ced, I am from the kingdom of Khastriya and this is Gabriela who came from this realm, she was from Hestia," Ced said. They immediately recognized Xavier's niece, Gabriela, because she had also visited Jamais before because of a mission.

"Gabriela?" Xavier said.

"It's Gabriela," Samantha added as she recognized Xavier's niece.

"Yes, we are here to help our sister, she was in trouble I can feel her," Gabriela said and she used her necklace then suddenly their necklaces lit up.

"This is what Criselda told us; they were the keepers of the scepter from Novaria. And they were connected." Samantha said.

"Gabby, did you know what happened to Mycka?" Xavier asks.

"Yes, looks like she was in the spirit world," Gabriela said as she held her necklace, even Ced agreed.

"And the same with Sadama they were both in the spirit world," Ced added.

"What should we do?" Samuel asks.

"We could ask help from the third keeper as priestess Criselda told us she has the blessing from the goddess of sea and underworld. We could use her ability to open the portal and lead us to the spirit world but unfortunately, we didn't know her yet," Ced said.

"Is that a suggestion?" Gabriela asked and scratched her head.

"No worries, I have a plan," Samuel said.

"Yeah, but that is very dangerous, Sammy," Samantha said.

"What do you mean?" Xavier asks.

"The spell of death, we will ask help from the god of Death, Sidapa," Samuel said and he immediately created a magic circle and then he started to do his incantation.

"Wait, let me help you," Samantha said and joined her twin in the ritual and they chanted an incantation together.

In Philippine mythology, SIDAPA is the god of death. He is a sky deity who collects the souls of the dead and gives them to Magwayen, who then transports them to the afterlife. He is a dark but kind god who sometimes extends the life of the dead. (source: google)

Then suddenly a tall man came by moonlight, he had brown skin and two horns on his head which looked exactly the same as the Sarangay's horns. He was also dressed in white cloth while his neck and hands were full of gold jewelry.

"You called me, and what can I do to help?" The god of death asks.

"Me and my sister wanted to go into the spirit world," Samuel said. Sidapa took a deep breath before he answered.

"There is chaos happening in the spirit world right now, and the goddess of sea and underworld, Magwayen is still fixing the chaos. It is too dangerous to go there." The god of death said.

"But our friends are in danger, This Sadama girl drags her to the spirit world, our powers are not working in the spirit world," Gabriela said.

"If that's the case, my daughter is in danger." Queen Aira said.

"Who told you that Gabby?" Prince Xavier asks.

"Princess Seraphina, I saw her in my dreams," Gabriela replied.

"The Brave La Fiery of Hestia and the woman who possessed the power of Anitun Tabu, Ced. I am pleased to meet you girls." The god of death said.

"Could you help us, please..." Samantha said.

"Okay, there's still a way for Mycka's soul to return to her body, but when Mycka returns to her body. Sadama can return to her body as well. Because what I'm going to do is reversing the curse, that she made on the princess of Verglas." The god of Death said. They all looked at each other on what they heard and Queen Aira agreed for the sake of her daughter, even Princess Freya and Alban also agreed to the suggestions of the god of death.

The god of death immediately disappeared when the moonlight hit him, and a few moments later Mycka and Sadama returned, along with Sadama's return, the black creatures came out and seemed to have grown stronger. And then she smiled at Mycka, showing off her new ability that she took from the princess of Verglas.

"Watch out!!" Alban shouted and quickly defended himself against the power coming from Sadama. When Mycka looked at him, the man had turned to ice.

"Alban, No!!" Mycka said. Ced and Gabriela blocked Sadama. Ced pulled out her weapon.

"A fan?" Samuel said. While Gabriela set both her hands on fire while her entire body was covered in the spirit of Minokawa. Aira, Joshua, Liam, and even the twins Samuel and Samantha were about to join them but Sadama quickly locked them in a prison where their powers were not working.

"This is much better; you guys are old and useless," Sadama said after she locked the five leaders of Jamais.

"What do you say, we're not old enough. How dare you! you look much older than us." Samantha shouts.

"Samantha that's enough, look at them, they were so powerful unlike us before," Samuel said. While pointing at Ced and Gabriela.

"I agree," Liam added.

Meanwhile, the beasts of the five kingdoms appeared to them again, and they noticed that the Minokawa and The Glacier Dragon were missing. Baco Baco immediately asked Mycka why they were missing.

"The Minokawa was on the princess of Hestia," The Baco Baco said. But Sadama interrupted their conversation and she released a large chunk of snow and threw it to the beasts.

"Gabby the beasts," Ced said, and immediately Gabriela transformed herself into a firebird which she blocked the attack coming from Sadama. While Ced used her fan to return a large chunk of snow to the enemy.

"Thank you, you earned my powers," The huge bird said which was the symbol of the flag in Aera.

"The Galura," Mycka said. And they saw the bird become a huge whirlwind and it quickly merged with Ced's body. Just like Gabriela, Ced's entire body was enveloped in the element of air as the image of Galura gradually formed in her.

"So new powers huh? Well, you're not the only one with new powers" Sadama said.

"What powers? The powers that you stole from me? You have no match with the La Fiery, think about it! Fire and Ice? Your insane b*tch!" Mycka said.

"I know, that's why I will use the power that Enigma gave me," Sadama said. While holding a bottle with a black liquid inside. She quickly drank it until her form gradually changed until she became a giant monster. While the beasts of Jamais immediately disappeared and went to different parts of the world. But before it disappeared, it left a reminder to Mycka.

"The Glacier dragon, you already found it, and we were tasked with guarding the other guardians of the scepter of Novaria, when the five guardians are completed and the scepter is returned to its true form, we can return to Jamais again." The beasts of Jamais said together before they disappeared and went to different parts of the world.

"But who is and where is the Glacier Dragon?" Mycka asks but her question doesn't answer as the beasts disappears.

"Mycka we need a hand here," La Fiery said and Mycka saw that Ced and Gabriela were fighting with Sadama who turned into a huge monster.

"On it, wait!" Mycka said and she held her necklace then she transformed into the Lady Frost.

Meanwhile on the other side of the story where the five leaders of Jamais including Princess Freya saw everything about what happened to the sacred beast of Jamais.

"Looks like Novaria is in danger, we have to do something about this soon," Samuel said.

"Yeah, Once I get out of this prison," Samantha said as she tried to use her powers to free herself from the prison but her powers wouldn't work.

"This is just like a curse; we can be free if Sadama is dead. She is the one who can free us." Liam said.

"It seems that Enigma is very determined to bring Sitan back to the human world, she will first destroy the worlds that protect the human world and that is us. Jamais, Ayden, Novaria, Oceana and Khastriya. Catalina told me this before they left Jamais." Samuel said.

"Sorry to interrupt, but Catalina and Theo's daughter was living in the human world. She was the one who helped us to bring us back here." Princess Freya said.

"Yeah, I meet her. Maybe we could ask help from her mom on how we can defeat the god of darkness." Samantha said.

"We will find out soon, but for now let's hope that the Ced, Gabriela, and Mycka will win this war from that creature," Xavier said.

"Wait I know how we can get out of this prison," Joshua said.

"How?" Liam asks.

"We will use my element," Joshua said while smiling at them.
