Yokuza bolted after Five and hurled a flurry of sword slashes at her, with a sword made from Prima's primordial gold dust; but try as he might he was unable to get the sword anywhere near Five, even when Prima joined him while wielding two large hatchets made of primordial gold.

Yokuza thrusted his sword at Five but she easily jumped over it; she placed her bo-staff on the sword horizontally and stood on top of the bo-staff. Five gave Yokuza a smug grin, followed by her and her bo-staff disappearing in a light cyan cloud. Yokuza darted his head around in an attempt to locate Five before hearing a snicker.

"Too slow," Five remarked before placing her bo-staff between Yokuza's legs and knocking him off his feet. Yokuza staggered sideways and in front of Prima before she collided into the back of his head and sent the two face-first into the floor.

“I was expecting more from the children of two magistrates; however given one of them is Callie, it’s not entirely impossible that you’d have a strong ineptitude for fighting… but at least you two stayed awake,” Five said as she glanced over at Yumi and Sapphire as they were sleeping on the bleachers with Destiny and the other sleeping kids.

“I mean they were only born a few days ago, so it’s to be expected,” Yokuza mentioned as he arose and picked up the dazed Prima. Five gave Yokuza an intrigued eyebrow raise.

“Shouldn’t that also apply to you then?” Five inquired.

"I don't think so, I was... apparently... made using an auroraite so I think that could have sped up my body's stabilization," Yokuza remarked nonchalantly before noticing Five had pulled her face mask down and gave Yokuza s devious grin.

"That so?" Five remarked as she tightly held her bo-staff and imbued it with lightning magic.

"Well, let's see if you can dodge this then!". In the blink of an eye, Five teleported to the other side of the gym hall before sprinting across the hall at such a high speed that her movements created loud thunderclaps.

The sound of the thunderclaps snapped Prima out of her dazed state, along with waking up Destiny and the other kids, and she darted her head at the source of the thunderclap. Prima's eyes widened at the sight of the rapidly approaching Five; Prima freaked out and jumped onto Yokuza's face before clinging to him as tightly as she could while frantically screaming.

Meanwhile, Snow repeatedly poked Scarlett's face until Scarlett began to regain consciousness. Scarlett quickly sat up and quickly rubbed her face.

"What happened?" Scarlett asked as she bemusedly looked around.

"You hit yourself with your own azure ability," Lola explained.

"Oh... Hehe,". Scarlett giggled as she rubbed the back of her head. Zalroth let out a yawn and remarked to himself that it seems the girls have lost interest in his lesson as the girls continued to talk about their new azure abilities.

"Papa, will mama join us on our adventure?" Lola asked with a pleading expression.

"Well given she went out of her way to meet up with us, I think that was her intention until I told her about the Terrorizer guy," Zalroth remarked.

"Oh ok...," Lola replied before her ears suddenly perked up and for a split second had a confused expression before it changed to a giddy smile.

"Papa, could I hold the crystal staff... please?" Lola pleaded while dramatically bowing. Lola's continual pleading caused the others to eventually join in on Lola's pleading until Zalroth seemed to relent.

"Fine... I suppose I did promise to let you hold it the other day," Zalroth stated as he pulled the Crescent Moon Staff out of his tails and handed it to the girls. The girls excitedly inspected and poked the staff with Zalroth intently watching them.

"Remember to handle it with care," Zalroth stated, which made all the girls tilt their heads.

"Is it fragile?" Star inquired. Zalroth waved his hand as he laid on his tails.

"No, it's just you should be careful, as you might activate one of the staff's abilities and might turn someone into a woman... or an animal, or something like that," Zalroth explained. The girls tilted their heads and asked Zalroth what he meant.

"Well although under normal circumstances, you girls shouldn't be able to activate it since the staff only responds to the person it's linked to," Zalroth stated. Zalroth opened his eyes and noticed the girls, excluding Lola, seemed lost by his explanation.

A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.

"What papa's trying to say is that it's unlikely we'd be able to activate the staff since it's linked to papa's soul and will only respond to papa's unique soul signature," Lola explained. Scarlett and Snow nodded their head while Star pondered something.

"But sister Luna said, just like DNA and genes, a kid shares some similarities in their soul structure and signature," Star mentioned.

"Really?" Lola asked as she took her hands off the staff to put them on her chin as she contemplated Star's words; however, due to Lola suddenly letting go, the balance of the staff became slightly off, which caused Scarlett and the others to tumble backwards. Lola panicked and jumped at the Crescent Moon Staff.

Lola tried to grab the staff but missed it and headbutted it before crashing into the others. Zalroth chuckled as he caught the girls and the Crescent Moon Staff separately with two of his tails, apart from Lola who bounced over the tails.

"You know when someone asks you to be careful with their stuff, you should probably listen," Minia remarked as she sat up with Lola stuck in her hair.

"But...," Lola tried to say something before a faint chime echoed from the staff. The girls tried to look over at the staff but, before they could, they were suddenly flung off of Zalroth's tails and at Minia.

"Minia, catch them!" Zalroth ordered; Minia huffed as her gelatin hair morphed into multiple hands before catching all the girls. Zalroth quickly activated his Lightning Amp spell, making himself and the ground positively magnetized(signified by them glowing blue) before launching himself into the sky.

The girls and Minia watched as Zalroth pierce through the clouds, with Scarlett asking what Zalroth was doing. Zalroth glared at the Crescent Moon Staff as it continued to let out a faint chime before he disappointedly sighed.

"Guess it was a false alar-" Zalroth managed to snark before the staff suddenly blinded Zalroth with a bright flash and as a huge surge of magical energy exploded at him from point blank range.

"That's gotta've... hurt?" Scarlett confusedly said as the group watched ten large different coloured orbs of energy blast off in various directions, with the pink one heading directly downwards.

"What just happened?" Snow asked as tugged on Lola's should but Lola just shrugged. Minia joked that they must have turned Zalroth into a firework, which made the girls nervously sweat.

"You don't think papa's going to be mad at us will he?" Lola nervously asked with Minia giving a nonchalant wave as the pink energy orb crashed into the ground and kicking up a cloud of sand; causing Luna, and the others playing dodge volleyball, to glance in the direction of the crash before being hit in the head by the volleyball and faceplanting into the sand.

"Palease the only way you could anger pops is if you-". Minia suddenly glared over at the sand cloud which made the girls, excluding Lola, duck behind Minia.

"What's wrong, big sis?" Lola asked as she looked Minia in the face.

"Not sure, it's just Zalroth's magic signature is slightly different now," Minia remarked as she slightly raised one of her fists. Lola instantly believed that Minia was inferring that Zalroth was hurt and jumped off Minia before rushing over to the sand cloud.

As Lola made her way to the sand cloud, it started to settle down and Lola was eventually able to see Zalroth's tails; however, something about them caused Lola to stop in her tracks. She noticed that not only had the tails doubled in length, but they had also shifted to a very faint pink with five tails having cyan tail ends and five having magenta tail ends.

A young-sounding female voice began to snicker as a small hand emerged from beneath the mountain of tails. A girl(who bore a sticking resemblance to Zalroth aside from being half his height, having pale magenta eyes, and long very faint pink hair with the ends being cyan and magenta) climbed on top of the tail.

She was wearing Zalroth's clothes that were extremely loose fitting on her and a small sliver of tail fur wrapped around their chest area to cover up their flat chest. The girl continued to snicker to herself as Lola slowly approached.

"Um... pa...pa?" Lola nervously whispered to the girl. The girl managed to stop her snickering and glanced down at Lola, allowing Lola to see that the girl's right pupil was shaped like a green heart. The two blankly stared at each other with the others nervously watching from a distance.

Lola's ears perked up again, as she got an idea, and she rapidly walked over to the girl while making pat noises with her mouth until she was directly below the girl, making the girl look downwards.

"Da...ddy?" Lola asked while making the goofiest looking face she could muster, without bursting out into laughter. The girl tilted her head which made Lola's ears and tails slightly slump; however, the girl tried to remain stone-faced until she bursted out in a fit of laughter.

"Do I look like a dude?!" the girl rhetorically asked in a joking manner. Lola gleefully smiled before jumping at the female Zalroth, tackling them to the ground and onto the female Zalroth's tails. Sophia and the others rushed over with their weapons drawn, except Heather who was carrying a dazed Luna over her head.

"Sensei what's wron...?" Sophia attempted to ask before noticing the female Zalroth as Lola was relentlessly licking her face.

"Who's that?" Charlotte asked as the group put away their weapons.

"She kinda looks like Zalroth; maybe she's his sister," Ruby remarked before noticing Star, Scarlett and Snow were being awkwardly silent.

"What wrong, little sis?" Ruby asked as she crouched next to the girls. Star began to shake even more as she slowly looked up at Ruby and revealing she was crying.

"We turned Mr Zalroth into a woman!" Star cried before jumping into Ruby's arms and knocking her over before crying into Ruby's lap. Sophia and the others were both shocked and very confused at hearing what had happened if the few minutes they were gone.

"Guess that would make her Hexed Zalroth then," Elizabeth remarked as she turned around and headed back to her tanning spot. Heather thought about what Elizabeth had said while the others were walking over to Hexed Zalroth.
