The gang flew above a dense forest,up ahead they could see what looked like an enormous kingdom far away.
"Is that the fae realm?,it looks so beautiful"Evette spoke as she stared at the distance.
"Yes it is"Kyle answered.
"Hold on tight"Jude spoke and the shadow bird soared through the sky at an incredible speed.
~~~~~~~~
"It's like there's a barrier here"Alura spoke as she stared at the entrance to the fae realm.
"Yes there is"Yasmin replied as she tried placing her hands inside but it couldn't.
"So how do we get in?"Vida looked at the rest.
"Beats me"Alura spoke as she walked away from the invisible barrier.
"It looks like it stops things from entering inside"Yona spoke.
"I'll turn us into light particles so that we can get through"Hugo spoke as he held his palm forward and slowly their bodies began glowing.
They passed through the barrier safely and quietly,making their way into the fae realm.
~~~~~~~~~~
"We can't get through there's a barrier here"Kyle spoke.
"How do we get in?"Evette looked around.
Jude looked at them,he held his palm forward and the others watched as a shadow engulfed them"the barrier doesn't stop shadows,so by cloaking ourselves in a shadow we can go in undetected"
The others nodded as they heard his explanation.
"Nice thinking"Ciara spoke and Jude nodded in response.
~~~~~~~
"They've entered the fae realm"
"How do you know Kyrios?"
"I can feel it Azron,they're heading here"
Azron nodded as he stood up to patrol the cave.
~~~~~~~
~~~Three hours later~~~~
"We're here"Yasmin spoke as they rest got down Vida's bird.
"Ooh,I'm so excited, let's go in"Alura spoke as she entered inside the cave.
~~~~~~~
"The presence is getting stronger, we're almost there"Ciara spoke as they approached the entrance of the cave.
They landed in front,Jude's shadow retracted and they entered inside the cave.
~~~~~~~~
"Huh where am I,Jude,Ci,E,Kyle where are you?"Aviva asked herself as she looked around,there was no one there,all she knew was there was a bright light before she appeared there.
She was about to take a step when she tripped and fell into the water behind her.
She could swear she hadn't seen it,she was trying to swim up but it felt like something was pulling her down stopping her,she struggled for some time,her lungs were screaming,she could feel herself fade.
Her eyes were about to close when she saw a blurry figure jump in and save her,she knew it was a male.
The figure carried her out of the water, placing her on the floor beside it,he waved his hands around her and she felt her lungs freeing up and her vision began to clear.
She looked at who had saved her and she was shock,why did she keep running into him?
"It's you,who are you and why do I keep running into you?"She asked.
"That's a rude way to talk to someone who just saved you"He spoke back,his smooth,velvet voice almost giving her goosebumps.
He was right,he had just saved her and here she was shouting at him"I'm sorry,thank you,my name's Aviva"He reached out his hand to help her up and she held it as she stood up.
He nodded"I assume you must be looking for your friends?"
She nodded"how do you know?"
"I'm the Keeper of this cave,now let's hurry up"he started walking forward.
"Wait,I don't even know your name,what should I call you"
"Azron"He replied and she repeated it in her head,she liked the name.
She followed behind him as he led her to the rest.She waved her hands slightly and faint but noticable wind blew around them drying them up as they walked.
"Why do you keep saving me?"She asked and he stopped walking but didn't turn around.
"Because you interest me"
"Okay"She answered and they continued their walk in silence,she didn't think much about it.
She was about to take a step when something pierced the air,she looked at the mark the bullet created on the wall.
She looked at the direction the bullet was shot,she saw Alura and Ace standing on a huge rock.
"Aww I missed"Alura spoke as she reloaded another bullet,aiming it at her,she fired again,but she dodged all of them.
She saw Ace shuffle his cards,a card ascended in the air and in few seconds,multiple arrows rained down.
The arrows only reached a few centimeters before turning into flowers.
Her eyes widened when she saw what happened,she looked at Alura and Ace,they were all dumbfounded.She looked at Azron,he was the only one here who could have done it,she scanned the area with the wind and no one was near.
"Damn,nice powers you got there pretty boy"Alura smiled as she looked at Azron.She jumped down landing a few steps in front,she opened her pand,the staff in her hand unfolded.
Alura spun the staff around between her fingers,she ran straight towards him,once she got close,she swung her leg towards his head but he blocked her.
She quickly changed and attempted striking him with the staff,he blocked.She jumped backwards and landed a few steps away,she stood up straight,bringing out her gun,she aimed it and fired bullet after bullet.
Aviva waved her hands and a massive wind scattered the bullets away,she sent wind blades towards her but Ace summoned a card with a shield in it.
"I hope you can handle him because I'm going after Alura"Aviva spoke,in a few seconds she flew straight towards Alura.
She attempted punching her but Alura blocked it,they continued fighting,their movements becoming a blur.
Azron looked at who he was meant to be fighting,he unsheathed his swords and jumped a few feet towards him.
~~~~~~~~
"Where are we?"Ciara asked,looking at Jude,the last thing they knew was a bright light flashing.
She was about to trip but Jude caught her"Careful"he said as he steadied her.
"Thank you"
"Let's look for the others Ci then we'll go after the gem"
"What of Layton's minions?, they'll probably be here, shouldn't we go after the gem first"
"No"Jude replied"our friends matter first"he started walking.
"Well,well,look what we have here"They both looked up to see Arkin,Vida,Hugo and Enzo.
"I guess we aren't the only ones who got split up as soon as we entered the cave"Vida spoke as she looked at them.
"Since we're all here,why don't we have some fun"Arkin spoke.
Vida nodded,Ciara and Jude watched as her body began turning to paper,the paper folded into blades and flew straight towards them.
Jude created a black hole absorbing the blades,he brought down the black hole and sent multiple tendrils towards them,they shot straight towards them but Hugo cut it with a light blade.
"Damn,the light user is here"Jude muttered.
Ciara rose up multiple horizontal ice columns,she sent all of them at once towards them.
Enzo clapped his hands together and sand hands shot up holding the columns still.
Ciara sent an ice creeper to them but Arkin struck it with his lightning bolts.
Enzo sent multiple sands hand to them,Jude snapped his fingers and time froze,he used a shadow blade to cut all the hands before unfreezing time.
Enzo looked confused,he was sure he sent an attack at them.
"You take care of Vida and Enzo,your water ability will be at an advantage there"Jude spoke,Ciara nodded,she cloaked herself in water creating water limbs before going over to them.
Jude looked at Arkin and Hugo,he covered his fist with a shadow before going straight towards them.
~~~~~~~~~
"We got split up as soon as we entered the cave"Kyle spoke as he and Evette walked around trying to get to their friends.
Evette was about to speak when multiple glass shards shot down at them,Kyle rose up the earth protecting them.
"I guess we have work"Kyle spoke and Evette nodded,charging straight towards the rest of Layton's minions with her fire whip.
