The Dark Gargoyle

( it has been three weeks since the attack on Xantos tower by M.E.C.H and Jack's auntie and uncle. Since then the Manhattan clan or wyvern clan as Jack was told during the clean-up of all the walls and rooms destroyed during the battle. Have been trying to understand the reason behind Raven's eyes turning black when dark magic swelled within Jack's hands. They were even more shocked when they learned that was something that even Demona has not seen before. So they decided the asked the one person that may have the answers they need)

" ( Walks towards the living room with clan Wyvern and the rest of clan Nightingale before opening the door to see Delilah, Jack, and Raven sitting in the living room with Fox and watches Jack change the color of his magic while looking at Raven's eyes changing to the same color). Seems like you guys are having fun. What have you been able to find out about this new ability that you were able to learn since you've apparently been practicing?" Asked Elisa. "( points to the different destroyed practice targets). Apparently, each color unlocks a different element. Well, all except for the black and red one that is." Said Delilah. 

" What makes the red and black ones different from the others. From what those targets are telling me. ( points to the two recked metal gargoyles). It looks like one can drain the energy of something while the other." Said Demona. " The black one will obliterate anything it touches while the red one drains your opponent's energy. ( Watches as Raven walks over towards one of the activated steel gargoyles and watches as she places her hand on its left shoulder before seeing a red energy exit the steel gargoyle and enters her). Apparently when she does that, it will reenergize the both of us and whoever I'm touching." said Jack as he walks over toward Delilah before watching as she quickly stands up from the flow of energy entering her.

"So what your saying is that when your eyes are black, the two of you can erase someone from existence?" Said Brooklyn. " It only works if I blast them, as for when Raven's eyes turn black it just makes her fight more deadly." Said Jack. " So when I saw Raven fighting Derek, and she was beating him up. ( remembers seeing Raven through Derek down like a ragdoll). its because the darker side of your magic makes her fight more ferociously?" Said Delilah.  " Ya, pretty much, but apparently it can make us both blend in with the shadows around us as shown by the fact that Raven has disappeared from the room when no one was looking." Said Jack as everyone but him, and Fox were looking around the room for Raven. 

" That's an interesting trick, though from the way your eyes are looking. You can still see her, can't you? " Said Angela. " Yep, I can still see where she is, though for some reason and this is something Fox and I found out before Delilah joined us is that Raven will stay hidden if I have different colored magic forming in my hands. " Said Jack. " That and if his hands are a different color and I'm still hidden, I can enter his shadow and stay there till I decide to come out." Said Raven and she jumps out of Elisa's shadow and scares everyone but Jack, Delilah and Fox.

" How come you weren't scared of what she just did Delilah?" Asked Broadway. "It's because she did it to me right as I walked into the room earlier.  Plus as you saw, she may prefer Jack's Shadow but she can hide in someone else's as well. ( Watches Jack pul out a BLT sandwich in a plastic bag from his pocket while Fox is eating a taco). Where the heck did you get those? ( watches them point to Raven). Did you actually travel to the kitchen that quickly  and not bring me anything?" Said Delilah. " Oh I brought you something, it's right next to you on your left in a bag like Jack's sandwich. ( watches her pull out a chicken sandwich before looking at everyone else). There is one thing that I and Jack had found out with Fox's help before you guys and Delilah entered the room. ( sinks back into Angela's shadow). I can also drag someone down here with me as Fox had found out by accident when she tried to surprise Jack while I was in his shadow." Said Delilah as she drags Angela and Elisa into their own shadows. 

  " What did you do that would warrant a trip like that?" Said Lexington. " I tried to slam a pie in his face when I first came in here. He was so in the zone that it was just too good to pass up. To bad the joke was on me. Plus she can get from A-B in a split second by traveling through something's shadow. ( Watches as Xantosbust the second door to the living room open). Is there something wrong hunny?" Said Fox. " Three unknown creatures of darkness grabbed Alex and took off this way, Owen went in after them but hasn't come back out. ( Watches as Owen is thrown out of Demona's shadow and lands next to him). Owen, what happened where is Alex." Said Xanatos. " Relax hun, our baby is safe. ( Holds her arms out to her right and feels weight be put in her arms to see little Alexander in her arms). Thank you Angela, now could you three please leave my shadow so you don't give David his first heart attack." Said Fox.

" Sure thing Fox. ( jumps out of her shadow with Elisa and Angela laughing as they jump out of Fox's shadow with her). You two sure had your fun beating up the poor old Faye. ( hears them stop laughing before hearing but Jack gasps in shock).  What, you guys already knew so what's so surprising?" Said Delilah. "It's because we've never told you about Owen not being human. So the question is, how did you know he wasn't human." Said Goliath. " When I was formed from the DNA of Jack and Angela, I also gained Angela's knowledge of the Faye folk.  That and when Jack's eyes glow, he's immune to illusions while they just don't affect me at all." Said Raven. " Ya, when my eyes were glowing black. I could see what Owen truly looks like under that illusion. Also Raven, let's call that last ability, Dark Gargoyle. I say that because it'll be a great ability to use if we ever get into trouble." Said Jack. " Something that always seemed to find you whenever you went on missions with us back at Jasper. Speaking of which, Lexington have you found out where they're keeping June yet?" Asked Arcee as she walked into the room.

" Actually now that you bring it up I have. It was smart thinking there Elisa, I was able to put a tracker on Micheal before she went through the portal. All we need to do now is to track her location and we can go." Said Lexington. " Good, I can't wait to get my hands on uncle Derek. Though something felt off about auntie Micheal. It seemed like she wasn't really into it while they were here." Said Jack. " He's right, you all heard what she said. She even focused on the Mech soldiers and not any of us. It's almost as if Derek did the decision-making and forced her to follow him." Said Elisa. But if that was the case then that would explain why she ran away from the M.E.C.H ambush while Derek fought. though there is something odd." Said Angela.

" What do you mean Angela, did you notice something off about her?" Asked Demona. " She probably noticed how my sister is not in control of herself." Said a voice as everyone turns but is shocked at what they see. " D-dad...how is this...possible?" Said Jack. " Hello son, it brings my heart joy to see you all grown up. though it also hardens to see what my brother has become." Said Luke. " How are you here spirit, and what do you mean your sister is not in control of herself?" Asked Goliath.  " I think he's referring to when I saw her eyes change color when she attacked those mech agents that were going to attack Jack. It looked like her eyes were shifting from red to black and back again. ( looks toward luke).  is her eye color supposed to be black? ( watches him nod his head). Then that means something happened when they lowered you and your younger brother into that trap." Said Angela. " You are correct young one. When my siblings and I had left my home, we did it believing we would be able to get rid of the hunters for good. I was at the time unaware of how dark my brother's heart had become. When we arrived we were immediately detained and locked up. It was then that I learned how Derek had made a deal with Silas to use our family's power of rebirth to try and restore both our fallen clan and his hunter brothers and sisters. We pleaded for our brother to stop his madness and free us, but he was too far gone. So instead he used a spell that would warp Micheal into someone that would share in his ideals. The only downside. ( smiles at what he was about to say next) before looking at Jack). I no longer had that power, you did Jack. " Said Luke.

" The black magic, that's why Elina was shocked when she saw it. It is not only destroyed but can also restore.  The thing I would like to know is, how do I have it if you did?" Said Jack. " Simple really, I had casted a spell that would transfer it to you, the only one that knew was my younger brother Sam. So when they told me to bring back their fallen, I burned the bodies instead and told them that the dead should be allowed to rest in peace and that I did not have the power. You saw the result during your fight with Silas, well done by the way. Though the one thing that has surprised me is the fact you gave your cousin the ability to use magic." Said Luke as he looked at Eilsa.

" Wait what, you mean that blast of magic wasn't a fluke. I can really use magic like Jack. ( watches Luke nod his head before seeing him shimmer). Um, or you of uncle Luke."Said Elisa. " I'm fine it's just that my time here is running out and I must return to the land of the dead. ( looks at both clans and their friends). You are all warriors through and through,  but I would ask that you please save my sister and wife from my deluded brother. It pains me to see my love in so much pain. So I must ask that you would save them and if you must... end my brother's life." Said Luke as he started to disappear. 

" Don't worry dad, we'll get mom back and we'll be sure to save untie Micheal as well." Said Jack. " You got that right my dear boy. ( places her hand on his shoulder). Besides, I need to pay her back for her part in the decline of your clan, and my human descendants." Said Demona.
