Fenris nodded. It's true. Ever since meeting Madelyn and protecting her, he's been just as important to capture for whatever reason, although Madelyn is still the real prize.

"Alright," Fenris replied. "But be careful as well. Emrys showed interest in you and Shena too."

The group continue to voyage into the jungle, although Fenris and probably everybody else is frustrated. Things are going too smoothly. There's no way it can be this easy, especially if Stella is on the island. There's no people, no guards, nobody. They're all obviously being watched. But what can they do? Anything can be some hidden camera. A leaf, a tree, a piece of grass, etc. None of them is familiar with the island. And they all seen Fenris, Madelyn, Taylor, and Shena's abilities possibly so they might be even at more of a disadvantage, leaving Sophie and Nolan as the wild cards in their group(Or maybe just Nolan as Sophie is apparently even more powerful then Fenris, making her a secret weapon).

But there's nothing they can do about the fact they're probably being watched other then to keep going. Soon, with no obstacles getting in their way, they see the lighthouse a distance away while the entire group is hidden in the bushes and trees.

Madelyn couldn't help sense a horrible feeling emitting as soon as they saw the lighthouse. Stella is here no doubt. It feels like the same feeling when Madelyn saw her during Stella's Raid and the kidnapping. She shook up, causing Fenris and Sophie to worry.

"What's wrong?" Sophie whispered, concerned.

"She's here," Madelyn answered in a fearful tone, almost sounding like she's having trouble whispering it out. "Stella Menolly is here."

Fenris and Sophie can't say they're surprised though. Stella's friends were willing to destroy Grand Faltria to retrieve her and that still failed. Would she really go that far for someone who simply escaped from her? Madelyn obviously has a bigger role in her plan, something so important that Stella must retrieve her at all costs and after the failures in Grand Faltria, the only thing left is for Stella to do it herself. But where in the lighthouse is she? Is she watching them.

Fenris however is also concerned about his army friends. Shing, Ivan, Yuri, and Reid, generals and friends of Fenris in Xellia-Lanvolvear's army. Everything has gone so smoothly for Fenris and his friends but those four haven't been seen at all. Fenris hopes that they're okay, but they're probably captured or just as likely, dead, seeing they were not involved at all and have no use for them. But they also had squads of other soldiers with them. Are they gone too? There's no way Stella would capture them all. Fenris still believes they are alive... but...

"I think it's well known that we're being watched," Sophie said. "So, Fenris, what should we do, since you're in charge of the whole thing?"

"..." Fenris doesn't know what to do either. Send somebody out as a decoy? No, that's exactly what he doesn't want to do. The group must stick together. Or go right through the front door which Taylor advised against. The lighthouse is tall and huge, looking like there's plenty of room for Stella and her minions. They are old-styled windows made of iron bars that look rusted and easily breaking in to, but Fenris still has a feeling that it will be no different then entering the front door.

"I have a feeling that they're toying with us, and nothing we'll do will actually change that somehow," Fenris said. "But we need to find where Judith exactly is and get out of here. What do you all think?"

Sophie smiled. "I'm not going to let us all be toyed with this easily."

Small pulses of electricity could be seen on her body all the sudden, as she closed her eyes. While everybody else is unaware of what she's doing, she's actually sending out pulses of electricity that should deactivate all devices. Sophie opened her eyes as her body stopped emitting electricity.

"All devices and cameras in the area are deactivated. I didn't think even Stella could go as far as to put cameras in these simple things. Flowers, bugs, and let's see, tree branches and small animals too," Sophie quietly informed. "They should be confused for a moment though. I simply caused their footage to malfunction and repeat itself, with us looking like we're simply standing and talking still. So let's move somewhere before the malfunction ends and the cameras all deactivate."

Madelyn was surprised. She managed to use her electric veons to malfunction and eventually deactivate all spy cameras from Stella in the area? Maybe Fenris really was serious about Sophie being more powerful then him. She sometimes acts like a five-year-old Madelyn thinks but she is still pretty smart.

"Right," Fenris said, like he's not surprised that Sophie did this but Fenris sighed. Is there another way inside the lighthouse? The windows are too small to squeeze through and once the cameras die they'll all be alarmed and will come after them. It seems they don't have the time to thoroughly search every window. They'll have to somehow use this distraction Sophie created by surprising the enemy and retrieve Judith and probably the soldiers that Xellia-Lanvolvear sent here if they're still alive.

"Well, seems like we'll have to enter through the only door I see," Fenris informed the rest of the group, seeing a normal iron door at the side. "We're going to have to use this to surprise the enemy and quickly look for Judith. We must avoid fighting but if we do see someone, we have to strike and kill them fast. If we see Stella, we run but I'll probably need to distract her."

"Fenris!" Madelyn blurted out, knowing that Fenris may not last long against Stella as a distraction. But then again, Stella would like to capture Fenris too so she'll probably not kill him. Still, Madelyn doesn't like this.

"No," Sophie replied, sounding worried too. "I'll be the distraction. Stella wants you too and who knows what she'll do to you? Plus, you're Madelyn bodyguard...."

"Sophie, Madelyn," Fenris told them. "Sophie, I need you to protect Madelyn if it comes down to that. I promise I'll survive and join you guys. I still some handy veonic spells that they still haven't seen. Are the rest of you fine with the plan? It's not the best, but this may be our only surprise attack against them and we don't have much time so suggest something else now if you have anything better in mind."

"Distraction, you say?" Taylor locked his fingers in a pianist's stretch, popping his knuckles. "IF it comes to that, I'll provide it. Again, my ass is the most expendable, and besides, I like to think I specialize in that department. So. You think the door's unlocked or should I make my best blowtorch impression?"
Indeed, there is nothing more repulsive than these monsters that defy nature and are known by the name of witcher, as they are the offspring of foul sorcery and witchcraft. They are unscrupulous scoundrels without conscience and virtue, veritable creatures from hell capable only of taking lives. They have no place amongst decent and honest folk.

"If you insist," Fenris said. "But be careful and flee is you must."

Sophie meanwhile opened the door, being surprisingly unlocked. She wonders how good her distraction is going to be, and how long they're going to last. Right now on their monitors, all they're seeing is them standing around and talking. The others quickly followed, entering the room. Nobody's here. Except...

There's a few dead soldiers laying around against the wall, with dried blood on the floor and wall.

"They're..."

"Damn," Fenris said. Although they are not his friends and Fenris doesn't recognize him, this only saddens him. Stella really didn't keep them all alive and his friends might be dead too. But there's nothing to do but move on. However, Madelyn knows they're in a hurry to find Judith now, but there's plenty of desks with books stacked on top of them in the room, along with several notes of paper with lamps on the desk. Among them was a simple book separated from the piles, and Madelyn couldn't help but examine the desks, and she picked up the black notebook that had a purple ribbon used as a bookmark in it. There's something about it that just sticks out.

"Madelyn, we need to hurry," Fenris informed. "What is that you took?"

"Not sure but maybe we can discover more information about Stella by taking this," Madelyn said. "Yeah, let's hurry."

A staircase is at the side of the room, but before anybody could move, something seemed terribly, terribly wrong. Not just Madelyn, but everybody felt a dreadful feeling.

"What is this?" Sophie managed to ask, as she fell on her knees.

"She's... coming... clo... ser," Madelyn said. "She knows we're here..."

Fenris managed to remain standing, but this pressure he's all the sudden feeling is wearing him down a bit. Can Stella really do this to people just by her presence being near?

"We... have... to keep moving," Fenris said, as he took a few steps forward. Standing here won't do anything. He was about to ask Madelyn to blast a hole in the floors above them but she seemed to be the most affected out of everybody, and Stella is coming closer and closer...

Taylor felt more nauseated than he'd ever felt in his life; he felt that if he started throwing up, he might not stop. He swallowed audibly, in a mildly-successful attempt to stanch the rising bile in his throat, and staggered towards the staircase, leaning on the rail. He ended up dropping the quartz sword at the foot of the stairs, and he aimed his hand up at the ceiling, trying and barely succeeding in calling the smoky spark back into his hand. Then the spark just winked out. "Damn. Might be for the best though..."

((At this rate, it looks like it's gonna be mostly you and me, Choco...))

Madelyn couldn't take it anymore. This is much worst then before. She started fleeing out of the room, back into the open-ness of the world outside.

"Madelyn!" Fenris shouted out. "It's not safe out there!"

But Madelyn ignored Fenris, who noticed Sophie is simply struggling to get up and is collapsed onto the floor. This is bad. Everybody is now spread out, with Sophie collapsed onto the ground. Fenris is unsure what to do, but Madelyn is wide out in the open, and even though it looks like she's having trouble, as well as Taylor, Fenris is sure they can take of themselves for now. He slowly ran towards Madelyn, who noticed the nearby bushes are shaking when three heads popped out.

"Hello?" one of them asked. Fenris recognized them. It's Yuri, Ivan, and Reid. But Madelyn seemed scared, having no idea who they are, as she pointed her arm at them.

"No!" Fenris screamed. "Madelyn, they're-"

But it was too late. Madelyn, scared and having no idea who they are, fired a beam of darkness veons at them. They were surprised to see Fenris, and further surprised by the girl he was with.

"Who are you?" Ivan asked, before disappearing with Yuri and Reid. The upper half of their bodies disappeared, thankfully their lower halves being hidden in the bushes. Madelyn turned around, at Fenris, now beginning to realize what was going on. Fenris tried to stop Madelyn from killing his old comrades, but she just killed them in an instant. However, that's not what made Madelyn gasp at when she turned around. Fenris felt angry at Madelyn, but worried at the same time. His comrades are now dead, although Shing wasn't there, but Madelyn didn't know who they are. Fenris noticed Madelyn looking at him, like she saw a ghost, but she couldn't say anything before what happened next.

Suddenly, the most unexpected thing happened. Fenris looked down and saw a sword right through his stomach, drenching his clothes in blood. Fenris felt intense pain, thinking it's unbelievable, but something else is nagging at him very much that he's trying to ignore the pain. The sword. No, it can't be, he started saying to himself. It's slightly covered in his blood but he seen this sword several times before. There's no way he would mistaken a sword he sees almost every day. Fenris turns around and what he sees confirms his worst fear...

It is Judith. Before all this happened with Madelyn and Grand Faltria, Fenris would always see Judith with her favorite sword. A thin white sword. Glowing white blade. Purple jewel in white hilt. White ribbon attached to it. It's definitely her sword. And the person who stabbed him is definitely Judith... short blond hair, blue eyes, Xellia-Lanvolvear armor. But why? And how?

"Judith?!?" Fenris reacted, as he collapsed on the ground off the sword, unable to get up.

"Correct," she said, as she used her hand to touch her forehead. Suddenly, her entire appearance changed, with her skin and armor disappearing into dark purple particles that disappeared moments later, revealing her true self like her former appearance was some sort of shell. This is no longer Judith. She had pale, white skin with red eyes. She had long black hair, a bit wavy and curly at the end with dark purple streaks at the tips. She was also wearing a dress of some sort, with golden thick laces or straps around her neck attached to the dress. The white dress reveals her back, and the bottom part of the dress only has a back side floating behind her, being outlined by dark purple. On her arm lies soft, white fingerless gloves that lies near her elbows. Her legs are covered in black tights, with black boots that have some white fluff in it. This.. looks nothing like Judith before.

"You're... not... Judith," Fenris said, coughing out blood.

"Yes, I am. Why else would I have her sword?" said the attacker. "But that Judith gig is now up. You can call me Stella, Fenny."

"No, no way," Fenris started to realize. At first, he thought this was a person using some special power to disguise herself as Judith, but he is now realizing that the person that just stabbed him really is Judith. Her sweet voice, the sword, and only Judith calls Fenris 'Fenny.' Like she knew Fenris finally figured it out, she smiled above him. Judith Proditer is... Stella Menolly. But how? And why? How did Stella disguise herself for so long? Stella didn't send the spy into Xellia-Lanvolvear's army, she is the spy. That however isn't important now.

"Everybody! Get out of here!" Fenris yelled, realizing all this has been for nothing from the start. "Taylor, grab Sophie and run!"

Madelyn meanwhile, watching everything, couldn't believe it either. The uncomfortable feeling that Madelyn and Sophie been receiving from Judith... must be because she emits darkness veons in the air. The Judith everybody saw was just a fabrication made by Stella herself. Seeing Stella's face made some memories flow back into Madelyn's mind, seeing visions of Stella watching over her and the other kidnapped students, but she'll have to deal with the visions later as Fenris begs everybody else to run, telling Taylor to take the collapsed Sophie, who appears to have fallen unconscious.

Everything... has already fallen apart. Madelyn accidentally killed Fenris's friends, Stella stabs Fenris and reveals that she actually is Judith, and this entire mission has now been for nothing. It was like Flynn knew this was going to happen. Now can they actually escape from Stella who then directed his attention away from the wounded Fenris and stared right at Madelyn... ?

Taylor heard Fenris, but how could he? He was just as paralyzed as the others... still no excuse not to try, though. With a grunt, he got from his crouched, almost-fetal stance and pulled himself to where he could actually move. Grabbing Sophie, helping her to her feet, he realized that there was only one route of escape for them: up. "Stay with me, now," he murmured as he dragged himself and Sophie up the stairwell. But he didn't dare leave Fenris and Madelyn to Stella's 'mercy.' Pulling out the black revolver, he muttered a brief incantation: "White Light of eternity..." The air around his hand seemed to swirl as the ambient energy around him changed and was drawn into the gun. "Deliver justice," he finished, pulling the trigger, and loosing a spear of holy light. Whether the shot hit, whether it drew Stella's attention, it didn't matter, now he absolutely had to get moving. Burn marks started to spread on his gun hand as he staggered up the steps with Sophie, away from Stella...
...And, so Taylor thought, towards the rest of the enemy. Gods, this plan sucks.

Sophie couldn't quite make out what was going on, aside from Stella arriving, and it feels like all of her energy is suddenly drained. She noticed Taylor taking her after hearing Fenris shouting something, probably the one who told Taylor to leave with her. She is so confused.

"Going somewhere?" said a voice as Emrys walked down the stairs, blocking Taylor and Sophie's path. Nine more people, with pale skin and wearing the familiar black robes hiding their true clothes underneath, walked down and Sophie immediately knew they were just as or even more powerful then Emrys. Among them was Rebecca, the opponent Luneth faced earlier. There's no way Taylor can run from them all.

"Luneth isn't here? Bummer," Rebecca muttered, although nobody really heard her or paid attention to it.

Stella meanwhile noticed the spear, made of light, coming straight at her, briefly causing her to take her eyes off of Madelyn as she turned around and held her hand out, with the palm facing the spear. Somehow, Stella deflected the attack straight towards the roof, causing a small explosion with dust falling.

Fenris started coughing out blood, and looked at Madelyn, who knows that Fenris wants her to get out of here. She is also still carrying that strange notebook she found earlier. But it doesn't matter as Fenris heard Emrys's voice, and instantly knew it was him. It's hopeless now. They're trapped, and Stella might have just captured them all. Fenris should have listened to Flynn.

Damn it, he thought, as the pain from the wound kept getting worst and worst. Is it really going to end like this? Stella turned around as her friends kept Taylor and Sophie busy. What is she going to do? Stella needs Madelyn alive, but according to her allies, they were interested in all of them so she wants them alive. Stella meanwhile went back and looked at Madelyn.

"Run!" Fenris managed to shout.

"Quiet," Stella said immediately, as she kicked Fenris in the chest, having the air knocked out of him and making his health worst, and ran towards Madelyn at quick speeds. There's no way Madelyn can avoid Stella. It seems hopeless...

However, suddenly, the side of the lighthouse blew open, creating smoke and dust in the scene, as everybody in the room immediately paused and looked over, including Stella. Beams of many different type of veons were then shot at Stella and the other darkness veonic casters as Flynn Lawliet VI, Duke Percival, Luneth, and hundreds, maybe thousands, of veonic casters entering the room with them, including Shing, the only one of Fenris's friends that wasn't killed by Madelyn earlier.

"You damn fools," Flynn said, as he was floating above everybody along with Duke, with the soldiers dressed in Malkian and Xellia-Lanvolvear armor forcing the darkness veonic casters away from Taylor and Sophie and to the other side of the room, dodging incoming beams of darkness veons. Stella immediately smirked and swung her sword at the rushing soldiers coming at her, but Flynn and Duke both blocked her sword with their owns swords, made of light veons, the same ones they used against Kohak back at the garden.

"Fenris, I'll deal with you later," Flynn said angrily, staring at him. "Shing! Luneth! Escort Fenris and his friends out of here! Hurry!"

Both nodded, as Shing grabbed Fenris and Luneth quickly went to Madelyn, making sure she's okay as the two ran outside. Shing waved to Taylor and Sophie, hoping they're alright, signaling to follow them.

"Oh please," Stella said, as she pushed Flynn and Duke off of her sword and dashed towards Luneth and Madelyn just as quickly but Flynn and Duke blocked their path once again.

"I always wanted to face the supposed two most powerful veonic casters next to me," Stella said, realizing that they won't let her go. "I'm curious how even our power is with the two of you against me."

"Shut up," Flynn said, as a bright glow engulfed his body. "I'm going to end this battle in an instant."

Duke stared. Flynn's just angry and talking tough. Stella has been a genius since childhood and has mastered every element obviously to their fullest extent. Stella might still be on a whole different level against the two of them and the rest of the soldiers here...
