Morgan and Merlin watched as Villar began catching his breath from the last breath of magical energy from Morgan. This moment gave Morgan and Merlin a little more time to talk.
"So you're Morgan from about thirty plus years in the future and you've come back with your apprentice to keep myself and Lilith from dying?" Merlin repeated.
"Yes, I can't go into the little details of it, but trust me when I tell you: it's bad." Morgan said as Villar was slowly beginning to get back up from licking his wounds.
"Follow up to your previous question. Gloria helped with the Lycans, changing my own future somewhat. But listen Merlin, we both know that even with your powers and my new powers along with my original powers aren't enough." Morgan said as she continued to monitor Villar.
"So, what do you suggest?" Merlin asked as Morgan took a deep breath before speaking again.
"Merlin, as I said, my powers and yours alone aren't enough, but together they can be....and more." Morgan said as she used her own magic to make Merlin a little younger confusing him a little more.
"Morgan, I...I don't understand...." Merlin said.
"Merlin....in another life, you and I were enemies, but I stand with you now, not just as an ally but possibly more. Come here, you damn gorgeous wizard." Morgan said as she brought her face up to his and gave him a passionate kiss.
Merlin was at first confused by this, then understood what she was doing and kissed her back. They were going to bring a child that no one had ever though possible: the child of Merlin and Morgan.

"Once I'm out of here, you two will be mine!" Fukushu warned them as he tried breaking through the steel beams.
"God damn it! I had heard you were tough but I never thought you were so dense not to see through Villar." Anjelica finally said making Fukushu stop and Lilith look at her as well.
"What.....what are you implying? This had better not be a trick." Fukushu warned Anjelica.
"I have seen and read way too many fantasy stories to see that you are being used as pretty much lackey for Villar. I mean think about it, once he's eliminated his biggest competition, he'll have no more need of you and then where will you be? At the bottom of his foot, just where he's always seen you." Anjelica said.
Fukushu hesitated before speaking again.
"I......I....I will give you a five minute head start before I come after you." Fukushu said as he let Lilith and Anjelica pass to safety while he thought about what the girl had just told him.
When they were far enough from Fukushu, Lilith asked Anjelica a question.
"How the hell did you know that would stop him?" Lilith asked.
"I didn't. But my parents just read me a lot of fantasy and know way too many tropes." Anjelica answered.
