When Zhen-Zhen came out of her room, she saw Alice and Thomas in the living room, watching television. It was only 3:00 pm.
Alice invited Zhen-Zhen to join them.
"Come here, dear. Let's watch this film."
"Ma, I changed my mind. I have to go back to Tristan now." Zhen-Zhen told them.
Alice and Thomas were glad to hear that.
"Ok dear, do you want me to call Tristan to fetch you here?" Thomas asked Zhen-Zhen.
"No need, Pa. I can go back by myself. I will surprise him," Zhen-Zhen said to them.
Alice and Thomas just nodded at her. Zhen-Zhen said goodbye to them and left the Meyer's house.
The husband and wife had no clue that Zhen-Zhen had a different plan in her mind. She's not returning home but she was going somewhere.
At around 5:00 o'clock in the afternoon, Tristan and FaMo arrived at Meyer's house. Alice and Thomas were surprised to see them.
"Son, why are you here?" Alice asked Tristan who was holding FaMo in his arms.
"I plan to sleep-over here tonight, Ma, since Lillie refused to go home." Tristan said matter-of-factly.
Alice and Thomas exchanged glances with one another after hearing that. There was a hint of confusion in their eyes.
"Didn't you see Lillie? Two hours ago she told us that she's returning home." Thomas told Tristan.
"Huh? But she didn't come home." Tristan promptly responded to them.
"She said she wanted to surprise you so we didn't inform you."Alice informed Tristan.
"If she didn't return home, then where did she go?" Thomas said, wondering where Lillie was
FaMo jumped out, trying to check the house. There's no Zhen-Zhen but he sensed something inside her room.
'What is this? A remnant of a dark aura? Did this come from Zhen-Zhen? I have a bad feeling about this.'
Tristan also started to worry. His wife became missing again. He called his grandpa, asking him if Lillie went to the Davis Mansion today. He also asked his mother just in case she came to see Lillie and invited her.
But no one among them saw Zhen-Zhen aka Lillie. Tristan immediately left Meyer's house to search for her.
FaMo, on the other hand, tried to locate Zhen-Zhen using his power. He was surprised when he found out that Zhen-Zhen was no longer in the City of Empire.
She was moving far away from his current location.
"Where is she going? And what's with her dark aura?" FaMo pondered to himself.
"Zhen-Zhen?"
"Zhen-Zhen, can you hear me?"
"Where are you going?"
He was trying to communicate with her through their mind but Zhen-Zhen never responded to him. He was completely ignored by her.
Then FaMo felt Zhen-Zhen suddenly stopped at a certain place. FaMo tried to concentrate again to find out where she was.
She was in a high place. FaMo could see the clouds and the trees. He could hear the sounds of the birds singing around the area and the blowing wind.
FaMo opened his eyes. He found her. That place was a mountain. But what was she doing there? What was she thinking?
When FaMo came out of her room, Tristan was no longer in Meyer's house. Alice and Thomas also left to find Zhen-Zhen.
"She's not here anymore. They won't see her. She's back in Mt. Calypso." FaMo mumbled to himself.
After making sure that no one was around, FaMo used his power and teleported to Zhen-Zhen's current location. In just a blink of an eye, FaMo disappeared in Meyer's House and reappeared in Zhen-Zhen's location.
FaMo's eyes widened when he saw Zhen-Zhen and the small light forming a circle in front of her. Its size was like the ball of a basketball.
"Zhen-Zhen, what are you trying to do here?" FaMo asked her in confusion.
Zhen-Zhen just grinned at him. "Right timing, Black Fire! You are here. Come, lend me your power so that I can open this portal."
FaMo was startled once again when he heard that. Now he understood what she was trying to do here.
Zhen-Zhen was opening a portal wherein she could travel in different dimensions. But he wondered how she was able to do that. In order to open a portal, she needed to acquire lots of magical power.
'Is this how powerful Zhen-Zhen? She can make a portal using her own power? But she's emanating a dark aura. I didn't know she possesses this kind of aura. It's different from Zhen-Zhen's aura before.'
"Zhen-Zhen, why are you doing this?" FaMo asked her curiously.
"I'm going back, Black Fire... to collect some debts." Zhen-Zhen told him meaningfully.
"Going back? Where?"
"To the world where we came from. The world where the descendants of the guardian warriors are living." Zhen-Zhen answered him.
"Zhen-Zhen stop it! It's dangerous to go back there. I brought you here to protect you. Why are you going back?" FaMo asked her with his desperate voice.
"To avenge my parents' death. I'm gonna declare a war with them! I'm going to kill them all!"
FaMo's eyes were filled with horror and disbelief. This person was definitely not the Zhen-Zhen he knew. FaMo transformed to his original form.
"Who are you?! You are not Zhen-Zhen!!! She would never think of killing people. What did you do to her? Bring her back."
Zhen-Zhen just let out a sarcastic laugh. "Black Fire, you know you can't hurt me. You can never lay a hand against me. So stop putting up your brave front. I am not afraid of you. You're powerful but you can't hurt me. If you will not help me then just leave! Scram!"
FaMo cursed inwardly. This Zhen-Zhen was right. The demon god made him Zhen-Zhen's protector. His power couldn't be used to attack her.
But what could he do now? How could he bring back Zhen-Zhen to her usual self. He could see in her eyes the hatred. Her heart was consumed by darkness.
'Damn! What should I do, master? Please help me? What can I do to bring her back?'
FaMo was racking his brain hard when suddenly Tristan's face popped up in his mind.
'Yeah. That fool! Maybe he can help me convince Zhen-Zhen. I need to bring Tristan here to stop her.'
