Last time, the Castellion's and the kingdom of Celest lost their loved ones, and the powerful family made an ancient enemy, Orion himself barely had time to grieve over his children. Helen, his wife, changed somehow, at this point she wanted vengeance. Diamond, along with her other siblings, tried to track The Eldritch Queens movements. Diamond used her connection to inter-dimensional travel to track her last steps. As she sat in front of her siblings, Diamond took a deep breath, and began to levitate, as she then opened her mind to the Dimensional Plane, where she could see the gates and bridges to other dimensions.
"What do you see?" asked Derrick.
"Well, like before she's covered her magical footprint, but someone seems to be closing the Dimensional gates," said Diamond.
"That takes a lot of power to do, try looking for magical residue left behind, maybe we can identify who it belongs to," Jazelle suggested.
When Diamond looked closer she saw a symbol only Babayaga uses when casting enormous curses.
Diamond assumed it belonged to BabaYaga, once she left the Dimensional Plane she displayed a holographic map, that revealed BabaYaga's location on the planet of Alphorn. Alphorn was a hot planet, where those who practiced magic used a fire type element. After this discovery, they went to show their parents. But when they arrived at the throne room they saw their mother and father in chains. That's when they saw a dark shadow like creature emerge from the ground. The figure had the face of a man, body of a demon, and huge bat-like wings. The creature released a loud screeching noise to subdue Diamond and her siblings.
Melody drew a magic seal into the air, creating a barrier surrounding the castle, so the creature could not escape. The figure spread its wide wings and knocked Melody into a wall. Melody collapsed on the floor. While Derrick rushed over to secure Melody, Jazelle opened her mouth a breathed a stream of fire at the creature. The creature then decided to reveal itself.
"I am Reign King of the underworld, father of dark magic, and it would appear your the ones getting in the way of the spreading of Infinite Darkness," he yelled.
"Don't you lay another finger on my children," Helen demanded.
"Oh shut up, if you could do anything, you already would have," Reign scolded. Reign cast a paralysis curse over the children, causing them to be immobile. Reign lifted Jazelle to her feet and gazed into her eyes.
"Yes you are the Goddess we've been looking for, the Eldritch Queen will be thrilled to see I captured you for her," said Reign.
Helen saw Reign trying to reach for Jazelle's heart. Determined not to lose another child, he summoned one of her greatest weapons: The Olympian Thunderbolt. She broke free from her bindings, and threw the Olympian Thunderbolt straight through Reigns back. Reign turned around and pulled the Thunderbolt out of him.
"It would appear your power is a joke compared to the stories told about you," said Reign.
He took the bolt and threw it back at Helen. Helen leaped from the floor dodging the attack. She then summoned a strong wind to knock Reign from the air, causing him to release his hold on the children. Reign then became angry, and he held spirit daggers to all the children's throats including Helen's.
"Cute knives," said Helen.
"Cute isn't the word, you see these are spirit daggers, forged from the dark fiery pit. One cut from one of these and your soul is trapped inside the dagger. So just think about it, no Heaven and no Hell, just a blank emptiness," said reign.
Orion jumped into the air and tackled Reign. As they both fell to the floor Orion constantly punched reign over and over. While trying to defend himself, Reign cast a Black spell and summoned a small snake. The snake slithered into Orion's ear. Reign then teleported Orion and himself to BabaYaga's Fortress.
In fear of losing the rest of her family, Helen burst into tears. Diamond walked over to where Reign and her father were fighting, and saw a cloth with the Witch Mark on it. As she showed it to her mother they decided to go after them while they still could. On the planet of Alphorn, Orion was brought before Babayaga by Reign. Babayaga walked over to Orion and decided to use him as a weapon against his family.
"Free me or suffer the wrath of the sorcerer of the cosmos," yelled Orion.
"You see I would but that would be no fun, besides you will be useful to me. So we can test that untapped power of your daughters," said the Eldritch Queen.
The Eldritch Queen knew Orion wouldn't bend to her will so easy, so she enchanted the snake inside Orion's head, to make him fall in love with her. No matter how hard Orion tried to resist, the Black magic was too much for him to fight while he was still weak from his fight with Reign. Once Orion was under the influence of the enchantment he was released. and began to make out with the Eldritch Queen. Back on Orion's planet Helen and her family were making way to Alphorn. Diamond opened a portal that led right to the location where the cloth was made. Helen wasted no time and stormed in the Master bedroom and saw Orion in bed with the Eldritch Queen.
"You filthy bastard, she killed your children," yelled Helen.
Orion declared his love for BabaYaga, as he kissed her neck. Helen pulled a dagger from her thigh high heeled boots and threw it at the Eldritch Queen. But Orion turned the dagger into dust and just before he was about to do the same for Helen, Diamond grabbed hold of her and teleported them home. Helen's children looked at her, trying to figure out what to do next, but all they could see was how hurt she was. Just as her children attempted to comfort her, she engulfed herself with electricity. She stormed off into her bathroom and cried her heart out.
"He was really about to kill me," she said, as her body went through certain changes. Her hair became shoulder length, as it turned white. Her eyes glowed a luminous blue, as she became filled with rage.
Helen then announced to her family that they would be visited by the Magic Council, and they needed to dress formally. Helen herself, while maintaining her composure, wore a long black gown with a diamond necklace. Diamond wore a white gown with long sleeves and white fur. Jazelle dressed in a fiery red gown with a cape made of red phoenix feathers. Derrick wore an olive green suit with golden leaves on it. Lastly, Melody wore a purple gown with silver musical notes around it. The family presented itself to the Magic Counsel, where they addressed the situation with the Eldritch Queen.
"I say we kill both the Eldritch Queen and Orion, seeing as he has joined sides with the witches," said the leader of the Magic Council.
"I agree, if Orion is no longer with us he is against us and must, therefore, be thrown off the playing field," said the second council member.
Diamond and her siblings demanded that their father not be harmed. The Magic Counsel looked to Helen for a decision.
"I say we kill his ass," said Helen.
She quickly asked the council to leave, as she went to her room. Later that night Jazelle wen for a stroll by the beach. Until she was visited by the Eldritch Queen. Jazelle quickly put up a fiery shield. The Eldritch Queen then cast an illusion where the kingdom was in flames and her family was dying. Jazelle looked around her in fear. She tried to run to her family's aid but they turned to ash. The Eldritch Queen then taunted her. Jazelle's eyes turned yellow, as she ascended from the ground and a huge burst of fiery energy. This led the galaxy being reduced to ash, leaving Jazelle alone in the dark. Jazelle took a deep breath, and a big explosion started, but it was a bang of creation. Eventually, the hallucination was dispelled, and Jazelle ran home, hearing the Eldritch Queen's voice in her head, ranting about how they'd see each other again. Jazelle walked down the hall, but as she passed by Derrick's room and heard bumping around. Jazelle kicked the door open and prepared to attack. But when she entered the room she saw Derrick and another guy kissing, she instantly burst out in laughter. Derrick introduced his boyfriend Kai as the three of them sat on the floor laughing until Derrick's smile faded.
"Promise you won't tell our parents," Derrick pleaded.
"Of course not, but you shouldn't hide who you are," said Jazelle.
"I know, but right now I'm not ready," said Derrick.
"Well you'll 20 in three months, so you ask yourself when you'll be ready," said Jazelle, as she stepped back into the hall.
That night was finally a moment of peace for some people, but the madness was not over. Babayaga had a plan to conquer all that is left in the cosmos, even if it meant killing every last person to do so.
