want to talk to me?" Emery growled with anger. "Where were you when I was arrested for crap I never did? Where were you when I tried to tell you the truth? You guys avoided me as if I was some disease! You all thought I was evil! Well, I won't listen to whatever you have to say. I'm done being good. By the end of the day, this city will be in ruins, just like you saw in your dream."

Emery noticed a slight crack on the dome just as Logan did. She smirked as Logan' eyes widened in horror.

"Erick, the dome!" he yelled just as the crack continued to spread. Erick had been listening to Emery's words when he observed the crack. It spread along both sides. Emery banged her fist on the dome, creating another one that was quickly spreading.

Erick, Selena, Justin and the members of the Ordinary Brothers backed away just as the Queen ran into the castle. The sound of cracks echoed around Crystalia. The witches saw what was happening, gasping and murmuring at the sight. Moments later, the dome broke, materializing into glass shards that hit the ground within seconds. 

The sound of shattering glass echoed around Crystalia. Justin and his friends had backed away again to avoid the shards from reaching them. All the while, Emery was staring with a smirk, not moving from her spot.

The dome was ruined, and the people in front of her were both shocked and scared. Emery had broken a dome, and it cleared any doubt of her being more powerful than Eva. 

Emery flew over the heap of broken glass and stepped on the lands of Crystalia. Her army of erboons swiftly flew behind her. They screeched, moving forwards and circling around Crystalia. Witches who were around the area got out and fought the erboons. Others just ran to the safety of their houses.

"I tell you the truth, and you bring those two back here?" Emery shouted at Erick, pointing at Harry and Zane. "Did you also bring Bianca here?"

"No!" Erick denied with fright.

Emery turned her gaze towards Harry and Zane. 

"You assholes!" she used her powers of telekinesis to throw the two. Zane and Harry screamed as they were forcefully thrown back. The guys watched in horror as the two collided with the castle walls behind them. They passed out in an instant just as Selena ran towards them.

Emery levitated from the ground, glaring at the people at her front.

"You could be lying, Erick," she said with a crazed look.

"Emery, I'm telling you the truth! She is not here!"

"Why should I believe you?" she yelled at him. "You and the rest had treated me like shit ever since I came back!"

The erboons were still flying around the city. Some of the witches had gotten out and were throwing fireballs towards the erboons. Most of the creatures were hit with the fireballs and exploded mid-air.

"It's a good thing I wouldn't have to see you guys again," Emery said, and that made the hairs on his former friends stand still.

"I'm going to exact my revenge on all of you, and after that, I'm destroying this place. In fact, why don't I start now?"

Emery had turned evil. It was either kill her or have her kill every witch in Crystalia. 

The realization had Justin moving fast before throwing a fireball towards Emery. Emery evaded it, sending a glare towards Justin before knocking him to the ground with her telekinesis powers.

The rest had been surprised by what Justin did and they had not noticed Emery throwing a fireball towards one of the towers.

"NO!" Justin, Selena and Erick yelled as the fireball was soaring towards the building. The fireball exploded on impact, and the tower began making a sound as it shook. Seconds later, it was falling towards the ground.

"My mother was in there!" Justin yelled, glaring at Emery. "Did you have to kill her?"

Emery just smirked. She teleported something on her palms and threw it towards the people in front of her. The object made a small explosion as it emitted some kind of green dust. 

"Emery, what--" Selena cut off her question. The gas being emitted made her and the rest woozy, and they instantly lost consciousness as they fell to the ground. Emery walked towards them, smirking at their passed-out forms. She soon called the remaining erboons.

"Carry them!" she ordered at some of them. They screeched as they flew down, grasping the bodies of those who had passed out by grabbing their arms. They began flying high in the sky with their captives.

"Don't worry," she spoke to them. "We'll be back to ruin this place, and we won't stop until Crystalia is completely ruined."

Emery levitated towards the direction of her new castle. All the while, the Queen and other witches watched in disbelief and shock.

"Your Majesty," the guard who had warned her about Emery's coming spoke to Elizabeth. "What shall we do?"

They were outside, and a couple of witches had begun surrounding the castle.

"What's happening?"

"Is everything going to be okay?"

"Did the crystal do this?"

The witches were speaking to each other and Elizabeth, demanding answers.

"Everyone!" she yelled, silencing everyone. "What you have witnessed is true. Our crystal is evil."

Gasps sounded around the area.

"But don't worry! It is not permanent." Elizabeth could not believe she had to say the next words. "Emery ingested a potion that made her how she currently is."

More gasps sounded the area.

"We are currently making a reverse potion, and everything will be back to normal." She smiled before quickly walking to the castle, leaving a couple of furious witches bustling with questions.

The Queen hoped she was right. As soon as the potion was ready, she planned to head past the mountains where she assumed Emery was. She prayed Emery had not fallen too far in the darkness, or else she would have no other option but to kill her.

 

CHAPTER TWENTY

 

 

Logan's P.O.V

A groan escaped my lips as I fluttered my eyelids open. It took me a while to focus on my surroundings, but once I did, I immediately tensed. 

I was in some kind of cell. Two torches lit with fire had been placed in front of me, illuminating the objects around me. I also noticed the walls and the ceiling were made of brown bricks. 

I was curious to know where I was, and so I tried moving to the cell door. I couldn't move because something was constricting me. I looked up, noticing that my hands were chained. I looked down and noticed I was dangling a few feet from the ground.

Oh crap.

"Glad to see that you are awake, Logan," Emery spoke. I almost shot up when I heard her voice. My eyes searched for her, but I couldn't spot her because of the partial darkness in the room. It was then that she emerged from a dark corner. Emery had regained her natural, human look. She was playing with her nails as she turned her gaze towards me with a smirk.

"Emery, let us go," Liam stated. With wide eyes, I turned my attention to the direction of his voice. I was surprised I hadn't noticed him. 

I looked around, realizing we were not alone. Apart from Liam, my other bandmates were also present. On the opposite side were Justin, Erick and Selena. They had all woken up, and they were also in the same chained state as I was. It was then that the memory of the events that had transpired before I passed out came to my mind.

Apart from feeling scared for my life, I hoped no one in Crystalia was hurt.

"Now why would I do that, Liam?" Emery inquired, teleporting a knife on her palms. "I was about to have some fun."

"You don't have to do this, Emery," Ethan said. Emery gave a dark chuckle.

"I don't have to do this. I want to do this," she said before throwing the knife towards me. It came at me at a fast speed that I screamed, expecting the knife to stab me in my head. Fortunately, it hit the wall on my left. 

Even though I wasn't killed, my heart was pounding at a faster rate.

"You see, you guys do not understand what I went through. You never did," she continued as she teleported another knife on her hand. "Every one of you thinks that a simple apology will be enough to make up for everything you did. It won't you stupid assholes!"

Honestly, I never thought that an apology would fix the mess that Emery had endured. It was the only thing I could think of. I mean, what else could we say to her after everything that had happened?

Emery proceeded to levitate towards us. She was a few feet from the ground as she stared at us in the eyes.

"Do you know the kind of crap I went through ever since Bianca and I met?" she asked with a tilt of her head.

"We do," Selena replied.

"Again, you don't. You never did, so I'm going to tell you everything that had happened to me. I'm going to explain it all in detail. Maybe then you will understand why I've turned out like this."

Emery flew away from us and landed on the ground, playing with the knife she held. She turned her attention back to us.

"It started after one particular concert."

I was confused.

"You guys decided it would be a good idea to play truth or dare. Me being the idiot I was, I agreed. Sure, it was funny to see some of you guys do some stupid things, but it was not good for me."

I was confused. Emery had been laughing with the rest of us at that time as we continued to spill embarrassing truths and do shameful dares. How could it not have been fun for her? She never had to do anything remotely harmful!

"You see, Selena decided to dare me to kiss Zane."

"What?"

"Emery, how--"

"Why would that be a reason to--"

"QUIET!" Emery silenced Erick, Zane and me. She remained quiet for a while as she bit her lower lip in contemplation. "After the kiss, I developed feelings for Zane. You could even say I had a crush on him."

What?

"Emery, what is the purpose of you telling us this?" Ethan asked, feeling confused like I was. Why would her kissing Zane be a bad thing? How was her life ruined through that?

"You are all going to die after I tell you everything. Or didn't you figure that out already?"

I tensed in fear. That was not good. 

I tried to unlock myself from the chains, but they wouldn't budge. I even tried to use my powers, but then I realized I couldn't.

"Anyway, the kiss was wonderful. It was honestly my first kiss, and you all know the reason why."

I spotted Liam moving uncomfortably from where he was dangling.

"Do you all need a reminder? You guys bullied me in high school and ruined my chances of having the teenage experience. I could have gone to parties, lost my virginity or even drunk beer! You know, normal teenage stuff. But no, you had to be there every step of the way to ensure I never experienced that! You guys ruined my life then, and I'm still experiencing the effects of what you did to me."

Emery sighed as she scratched her head.

"The reason why I'm telling you this is because of what happened
