Laylah POV:
I looked around the corner to check if the coast was clear. There were 2 knights sitting down drinking cups of brew. Turns out it was Galahead and Lancelot were the 2 people who were there.
I signal for everyone that it was safe to come past. We all run over but Steve got distracted.
"Young gentleman of Paluckia, join us in our nocturnal libations" Lance said inviting Steve to the tea party.
Archie and I stop and turned to Steve
"Where do you think your going buddy?" Archie asks looking at Steve
"Dude, I'm keeping the guard busy while having a righteous time" Steve exclaimed with a smile. He turned to the two knights and he starte to run towards them.
I peeked my head around the corner and sighed.
"Well at least he's going to use"
Archie nods and leaps into the air changing his form.
"Come on, we have to catch up with the others"
I nod and Archie and I run to catch up.
We found the group in the dungeons were Jim was kept
"Jim! Where breaking you out!" Claire said holding hands with Jim
"Sorry, what did we miss?" Archie and I ask
"Oh, nothing much don't worry" Douxie said
"Your stay in terror tower is over, mate"
The door soon fell down to the ground and Jim hugged Claire
I smile as we started to go around the room realising every single troll
We slowly and quietly walked through the corridors of the dungeon when we reached the surface. We were about to run through the open area where Steve was when we heard him singing something.
♫ "Watch out everyone, he's going to do some creep killing" ♫
"Now, now everyone just stays calm" But when Douxie said that everyone started to freak out and ran out of the corridor.
"Douxie what do we do?" I say
"We need to get those trolls to safety including Jim, you help Jim and Claire I'll distract Arthur"
I nod and run towards to Jim and Claire
Claire was helping Jim walk since he was injured.
"Here let me help!" I quickly say taking Jim's arm over my shoulder
"Thank you" Jim says looking down at me
I give him a sweet smile back
"Come on we need to go"

Douxie POV:
I run around trying to find Arthur.
"Did you see where they went?" I heard a voice speak. It was Arthur I knew I had to make a move or else Jim and the others wouldn't be able to escape the castle grounds
I quickly step in front of Arthur
"Quick in here, this way sir! Don't worry sire, I'll freeze them on the spot!"
"Then do it! This way, men!"
"Charge!"
When they started running I placed an infinity hallway in the spot. This should by sometime for Jim, Claire to get away.
But it didn't last long. Arthur stopped and looking over at me panting from the running.
"What trickery is this now?"
"Oh, Fuzz Buckets!"
"I must have cast an infinite hallway by accident, you know how frustrating magic is" I lie
"Uh, let me- let me just find the right spell"
But Arthurs patience was growing thin
"Wizard, remove this enchantment or I'll remove your head!"

Laylah POV:
We were still helping Jim get out of Camelot when we stumbled upon Galahad and 2 knights surrounding 2 small quagawumps. I accidently kicked a rock and it landed behind Galahads foot.
"Dam it" I whisper as Jim, Claire and I hide behind a wall
Galahad was slowly approaching us with a bat in his hand.
But suddenly Galahad and the knights were scared away. I looked up to see a shadow of a dragon up on the wall. I turn to see Morgana being the one who was casting the Illusion.
"Morgana!" Claire and I both yell
"I couldn't stand by either, go! While you have the chance!"
Claire and I nod
We caught up with Callister at the gate. It was hard for Claire to say goodbye. She cared about Jim so much.
"Come on! We don't have time for this"
"I'll find you! I promise!"
Callister picked up Jim off his feet and we separated. But Jim and the trolls couldn't go anywhere. The whole pathway to the forest had been plastid with sunlight. If the trolls were to even put a toe in the sunlight. They would be turned to stone.
The trolls backed up but Arthur and his knights where a step ahead. But the gate closed down by some sort of blue magic. I realised it was Douxie's magic! I was going to turn to Claire but she wasn't there.
I saw here running up some stairs not far where I was standing. I rush after her and she looks overhead to see Jim and the troll backing up into the gate. The knights placed their swords in between the cracks of it.
If the troll were even to misplace a step they would be killed right there.
Claire was about to use her shadow magic to move the clouds to create shade. But I grabbed Claire's hand.
"Claire No! You can't cast shadow magic in this situation! It's too dangerous!"
"Then what do we do?! We can't just stand here and do nothing!" Claire shouted
I look at the situation. I start quickly flicking through my bracelet.
"What are you doing?" Claire asked peering at my bracelet
"The only thing we can..." I stated
I step in front of her and close my eyes. I had to focus really hard. I take a deep breath of the open air.
I whisper the incantation and a purple mark from under me.
Sparks of purple magic fly through the air
I started to float up in air. I open my eyes as the turn purple.
I had to stay focused or else I would loose hold of the spell. I click my eyes on the shadows as the drag from the ground and objects to the pathway so the trolls could pass through safely.
It was getting exhausting to hold this spell much longer.
"Come on, come on" I grunt having my hands focused on the shadows below.
I was about loose hold of the gate since my spell inter feared with Douxie's spell
I couldn't hold it anymore I had to let go of the gate. Soon Arthur and his Knights on horses raced after the trolls.
I let go of the shadows and I could catch my breath. But before I could let a full release of the spell. My mind flashed white and my eyes turned white. I knew I was on the ground but I couldn't see anything until.
I could see flashes of Merlin yelling at Doux and I another flash came and there was fighting.
I didn't know what was going on

Douxie POV:
I run up the stairs to see what had happened. I look to see Claire and Laylah standing there. Claire was frozen with fear as she looked at Laylah.
Laylah was frozen on the spot but her eyes were completely white.
"Claire! What happened?!" I ask running over and I start shaking Laylah
"I don't know! She was doing this insane spell and this happened!"
"Laylah! Wake up!" I say shaking her aggressively
Her eyes finally turn back to her normal ocean blue colour.
She gasps for air as she starts to move again.
"Laylah it's okay! Where here" I say looking into Douxie's eyes
She didn't say anything.
She touched her head before she started to tumble to the ground.
I catch her before her head hits the ground.
"Woah! Woah! Woah! Easy…" I say calmly as I holding her close to me.
"Is she okay?" Claire askes looking at Laylah
I nod
"She will be, she just needs to rest"
"But what was that?" Archie asks looking up at us
I look at Arch then at Claire
"I-I don't know"
