The people of Haven were dumbfounded by the words of the Goddess. Their savior was their savior yet she wasn't? The Council was even more confused by what she meant by that the truth of the Prophecy. The questers were also confused, but Rex had his BFS out threatening the Goddess should she try anything suspicious. Only Tawret seemed at ease as the old High Priestess stood proudly next to the floating being.

"Peace my friends I know you are all confused, but I beg you to hear out our Mother Goddess. She who is the wisest will explain the truth behind her Prophecy and the roles the Lady Rhiannon and Lady Eilonwy play."

"Oh so we should listen to the being who wanted to take over my daughter's body and burn her soul? I don't care if she is a Goddess I'm not letting her near my family or listen to what she has to say!" Rex growled, as he shielded Circe and Eilonwy from sight. He knew realistically he couldn't challenge the Goddess but it was nice to pretend he could keep his family safe. All around him the other questers took up defensive positions ready to defend the family to the death.

"How dare you disrespect the Mother Goddess? You should be punished for you your sacrilege!" Bevin shrieked, but was quieted by Marella who hushed her friend. She too was angered by the disrespect however the Goddess was laughing in a pleasant manner so it must be alright.

"It is very refreshing to see humans standing up to me and declaring that they would die to protect their love ones even in the face of a powerful being. Young one you needn't worry the test is over and your little one is no longer under threat. I apologize for the emotional damage caused by her kidnapping, but it was necessary in order for the true meaning of the Prophecy to come true," the Goddess laughed pleasantly. Her form was still indistinguishable only the outline of a young maiden could be seen as the silvery light continued to flash.

"How could anything good come out of stealing a baby?" Circe demanded.

"You say that you were testing us, manipulating us so that Rhiannon would return here to be your avatar why? Why not just tell the Covenant of the Triple Moon and Stars that she was the one you wanted instead of having them do what they did?" Noah spoke up.

"It would have been a lot easier!" Breech screeched.

"Yo my bro has a point my lady. It seems counter productive what you did? Was there a point of testing us to the breaking point and making us believe that you were going to harm the baby?"

"Jermaine stop being disrespectful! Great Goddess forgive my friends if they have offended you. I too am confused by what has happened. An explanation would is needed for all assembled here."

"Stacey is right Mother Goddess. I am also wondering what plans you have for me. I think it would be easier to understand you if you would take a human form and tell us what we should call you. Humans are more at ease that way my Goddess."

"You are right of course child it's been so long since I interacted with humans those things like a corporal bodies and names have slipped my mind. A moment please," The light solidified and elongated transforming into a human girl in her early twenties. She had long cascading silver locks that went all the way to the floor, her skin was milky white, and her face was heart shaped with delicate arched eyebrows and small nose with black eyes. She wore a simple silk Sumerian style dress with a quarter moonstone necklace hanging around her neck. She touched down next to the alter smiling. "My true name is unpronounceable to humans so for simplicity sakes I ask you to call me Luna."

"Alright Luna start by telling us what you meant by the truth of the Prophecy and what you want to do with my daughter," Rex demanded refusing to lower his sword. He was startled when Luna touched it with her index finger and it vanished back inside him. "Okay this could be a problem."

"There is no need for weapons two world Guardian. I assure you no one is in danger here. I owe you all an explanation and that includes the people of Haven. My beloved children you have honored and worshipped me for centuries. You have kept the teachings and legacy bestowed to your world millenniums ago alive and I thank. I am grateful and pleased by the efforts of the Council for protecting manna users and doing whatever it takes to save this beloved planet. My heart is swelling with pride that you have had High Priestess Tawret guiding you on life's difficult road. This Covent has done a tremendous service for my people and I thank them. The young questers have asked for the truth of why the little one was brought here and now why I want their companion as my avatar instead. Make no mistake the Prophecy has come to pass and I will explain my motives shortly, but I feel that the only way for my motives to be understood is for the whole truth to be told. I ask you hear me out and pass judgment on me and my actions after I finish my tale."

"Although you have worshipped me as a Goddess and in many aspects I suppose I am, I'm not a supreme being! I belong to race of celestial energy beings from the far side of this galaxy," Luna began; there were collected gasps from everyone present (save Tawret who already knew) and Rex and Noah's jaws dropped.

"You have got to be kidding me! She's a space alien?" Rex exclaimed.

"This is starting to sound like something out of a sci fi novel," Noah muttered.

"Hush! This is important!" Circe hissed and Eilonwy started crying at being jostled. Circe sang quietly under her breath soothing the little one. The baby soon calmed down and Circe focused her attention back on Luna who had patiently waited for the chatter to die down before continuing.

"I know this comes as a shock that I am not the goddess you thought I was, but I assure you I am still one in name. My people traveled the universe studying other life forms using our ability to tap into life energy, manna, to help protect worlds from harm. On each world we visited we learned about new ideas, new ideologies, and met new beings and in turn the people we encountered learned from us growing and evolving into mature races. After a time we would move on to share our knowledge. Then a few millenniums ago my people came to Earth, drawn by the high concentration of manna."

"Humans were just beginning back then. Civilizations were struggling and learning how to cope in the world. The dangers were great and we could feel that humans had much potential. Normally we only interacted with more developed races or if we did interact with ones that were younger we would blend in with them as observers so not to upset the natural course of evolution. However this time we took a more proactive role and decided to help the human race evolve so to speak."

"Why? Would you interfere with our development if you just said that your people normally observed and protect people from harm in secret. Yet you say your people, Godlings I guess we could call them, interfered with this Earth history why?" Stacey questioned.

"Many reason, humans reminded us so much of what we had once been, the high concentration of manna was similar to our planet, we had thirst to expand our knowledge, but the main reason we decided to get more hands on this time was because of the single act of a human woman. She was born with the ability to tap into manna to heal and was shunned for it. She tried to offer her services, but many were wary of her. We studied her trying to understand the genetic pattern and geographical references that allowed for humans to be born with the ability to tap manna. During one of our observations my friend, I think I'll call her Brigid, got hurt while during observation. We were in what is today the country of Ireland and Brigid ended up pinned to the ground by a tree struck by lightening. Normally we can't be harmed by such things, but in corporeal bodies we are more vulnerable. Brigid was bleeding internally and we couldn't take her back to the ship without raising suspicion. Brigad would rather have died then let us give up our mission. Then that woman, a simple outcast named Bec Rowan, offered to help. Using her gift of manna she managed to stop the bleeding saving her life. She asked for nothing in return only that it was her pleasure to use her gift to help others."

"After that it was agreed among us to help awaken the magical potential in humans and keep this world safe long enough for them to start reaching their potential. Unbeknownst to your ancestors we have the ability exist in many forms in different places simultaneously. This meant we could help cultures all over the world grow and develop at the same time. Cultures came up with different names and divinations of our power based on what we would do."

"That explains how come there are so many different gods and goddess around the globe, but culturally speaking there is a lot of similarities. I knew my master thesis was onto something!" Mage cheered. She wanted to do a victory dance and run back to Oxford getting back at all her professors who dismissed her theory so easily. Take that Oxford

"Goddess Luna please continue with your story. The people of Haven are very interested in our past. We want to understand how our culture came to be and why your kind left us," Quade remarked.

"For centuries we helped teaching cultures helping them evolve, but never formally imposing our wills and desire on them. Nor did we directly interfere with their affairs leaving them to make their own choices such as when they went to war. Using our own powers we unlocked the secret to humanity's ties with manna and awakened powerful bloodlines and bestowed gifts of great power to people. It was a time of great and wonderful change, but we knew that we would have to leave eventually. Our power was waning and needed to report our findings back home. We suspected that the things we taught might be lost or even forgotten, but a wise Japanese proverb states that 'we give our children two things in life. A nest to grow and be loved in and the wings to fly away and find their own path'"

"What does that mean exactly?" Noah wondered.

"Boys your idiots you know that?"

"Hey I resent that remark!"

"Silence! The saying means that families have to raise their children and hope for the best. The Godlings viewed us as children that needed to stand on our own two feet," Sloan remarked.

"Yet as parents they couldn't cut us off entirely. That is why you left the abilities to communicate with you through rituals. The prophecies you left us were telling of when you would return to help us in times of crises correct?" Rory asked.

"That is correct, but humans don't always understand things even when they are in plainest terms. That is why most prophecies are confusing, but still able to be decipher when the correct context in used."

"Luna what about the last great one the one we tried to fulfill. We went over it and applied it again and again. How is that Rhiannon is the one you want? Eilonwy fits the prophecy perfectly," Aoife asked.

"My friend is right, we did for a short time considered that Rhiannon was the one it spoke of, but we were never able to confirm her bloodline despite extensive research. I even used my psychometry on her to discover more about her past, but was unable to determine her heritage. It was for those reasons that we had to dismiss her as your avatar Luna," Oriana explained gently.

"That is because you had nothing of her parents to touch. Rhiannon, I know that you have always believed you were abandon because of your gift, but I assure you that isn't true. Because it was my people who helped awaken the bloodlines and gifts I can tell just by reading your manna signature whom you descend from. Would it surprise you that you are the direct descendent of the woman who saved my friend's life?" Luna asked

"Whoa I thought we were the only one who had powerful ancestors you dig?"

"Impossible! We would have extensive records of all bloodlines from all over the globe. Surely we would have been able to match someone with the power of one of the original magic users to Rhiannon!" Moya exclaimed.

"It doesn't make sense Goddess Luna. Rhiannon does bear the mark of the moon, but her gift of aura reading and specialty of summoning is weak Even after training by us and her own self teachings she has yet to reach the kind of level of power you would expect the descendent of a bloodline such as this," Marella spoke up.

"I have to agree with the Councilmembers Goddess Luna. My abilities are certainly lacking and I don't even look like I'm of Irish descendent."

"Young one people migrate and travel mixing with different ethnic groups. Did you never wonder why we all carry Gaelic and Celtic names despite our origins coming from very different countries? I know Goddess Luna speaks the truth for she shared your past with me shortly before I initiated the Trials. Your father was of African descendent. His name was Dabir (teacher) Magejinks. He was a soldier in the English army, but his true passion and talent was gardening. He helped create some wonderful hybrid plants. Like Rex he lived in two worlds one as soldier with high tech weaponry and the other he used his green thumb to produce plants. Your mother was named Kianna (ancient) Rowan. They were very much in love and wanted to have you. The centuries had diluted the power the Goddess Luna saw, but the potential for a rebirth of someone of Bec's level was possible. While your father had his green thumb your mother was a talented herbalist using her gift to offer alternative medical services."

"So what happened? How did Mage end up in the orphanage in Manchester?" Noah asked.

"Rhiannon's father was killed in a car accident two months before her birth. Her mother discovered she had an incurable aneurism that going to burst. Knowing that there was nothing anyone could do magically or medically she prepared herself for death. She managed to give birth to her child and drop her off at a safe place before finding a quite place to die. I'm sorry that you had to learn of your past this way."

"Excuse my interruption, but I am confused about something no make that a lot of something's. It seems that Tawret just confirmed you knew my daughter wasn't the one you wanted to bond with. So I'm kind of wondering why you didn't stop them from kidnapping her, putting us through the Trials and then nearly going through with eradicating my daughter's soul if it was all completely unnecessary!" Rex yelled.

"Rex is right; you would have finished the ritual if we hadn't sung our song to our daughter. Why did we have to sing to prove how much we love her and didn't want her to suffer?" Circe demanded

"That is enough Consort, High Priestess! How dare you disrespect our Goddess in such a manner! You should be thankful she is not smiting you for your insolences!" Cian retorted angrily. The medium was prepared to cast a spell to send Rex to the farthest reaches of hell when both Tynan and Daegan spoke stop him.

"Cian, they are just being parents at the moment expressing their displeasure. If Goddess Luna has no troubles with them talking to her like that we shouldn't be angry," Daegan said.

"Also we are curious about why it was important to bring Lady Eilonwy here. I have to agree with Rex it is most puzzling the circumstances that have led to this moment. If Rhiannon had never spoken against our beliefs she would not have been exiled and we would not have focused our attentions on Eilonwy," Tynan pointed out.

"I know and while this maybe difficult to understand everything happens for a reason. Humans rarely if ever see the clear line showing how the big picture is connected," Luna said simply. She walked towards the little family. Noah and Breach jumped in front of them and the Xiaolin Dragons readied their weapons in case of trouble, but Luna held up her hands in gesture of peace. After a tense standoff they let her pass. She smiled lovingly at the couple and gently stroked the baby's face causing her to giggle. "Your daughter has a special destiny just as the two of you do. You ask why I allowed all this to happen it was for an important reason."

"The Nanite Event that happened five years ago was felt all the way back on my home world. The nanites were mankind's attempted to evolve to their fullest potential to embrace the gifts and legacy we left behind. To unite the world as one culture instead of hundreds of thousands separate entities. However, because of arrogance the nanites are causing more problems and the world is suffering. We had to come back and try to help fix what we inveterately caused however it would take more then magic to fix this. We need people who had been affected yet still were noble to help. It didn't hurt that they had connections to the world of progress."

Luna tilted her head to look at Rhiannon. Her eyes pierced the girl's soul and she felt exposed. All the pain and suffering she had felt her life was transferred into Luna's mind. Luna grimaced, but didn't stop until the memory transfer was finished. "You have suffered much child, but you have never let the pain win. You have flourished and always though the good in people. You love Haven, but knew when to stand up and point out something was ethically wrong. That is a mark of a great leader. I know you think it's your fault that women died, but you mustn't let that deter from all the good you did. Even in Abysus you helped people by showing them that what they viewed as curses could be gifts. It took remarkable courage to summon help and lead the questers while undergoing the Trials again. I know it hurt you deeply when the Challenge failed, but it was important that you stop pitying yourself and let go of your doubts. That it why you are the one the Prophecy speaks of,"

"Rex Van Kliess, Circe Warren, you two have both undergone a transformation that was vital if the future of your world is to be secured. Rex, you are a great warrior, a wonderful friend, and will be a good husband and father. Your amnesia may have taken your past, but your heart has always remained true. Still your nanites would not be enough to face some of the dangers that lie ahead. You needed to be pushed to the brink, to awaken the spark inside you given to you by your mother in order to save the world. Circe, your past has been dark and painful. By awakening your legacy you can see that you are strong and there is much you can do to shape the world. I needed to see for myself that no matter what or how hopeless it was the two you would stand by each other and do whatever it takes to keep that which is precious safe. Your daughter is the future of the world and will need your guidance in order to save it. That song shows that it doesn't matter what that destiny is you will protect her. I know it was heartbreaking, but you are stronger."

"Do not think you are excluded from this transformation. Noah Bradshaw, Bethany Stone, this journey has taught each of you how to use your gifts in ways not possible. Any and all fears you had have vanished. The relationship between you has grown and I think the two of you will be fine. Bethany, I can not erase completely the madness that has invaded your mind, but I will remove some of the more deadly notions in your mind," Luna told the EVO. Her black eyes glowed and a silvery ribbon of energy wrapped itself around Breach's head. Vanishing into her cranium her face slackened as some of the madness was lifted. "The pain and loneliness is gone child. You are free of that. Jermaine Cook, Stacey Hindi, I congratulate you on another successful mission in another world. Though you are not of this Earthy you completed this journey to help friends. I hope that the bonds formed here can transcend the barrier and we can continue to trust and help one another."

"Yo count on it moon girl! We Xiaolin Dragons always keep our word!"

"Thank you for you kind words. Are you going to complete the ritual now?"

"Yes, we need to complete the ritual. Luna maybe powerful but she has her limits. The reason for an avatar is not only to walk among the people of Earth, but to conserve power. Keeping a corporeal form together while using vast manna powers to bring about peace, love, and magic can be draining. By bonding with Rhiannon in a symbiotic relationship it will benefit the two of them."

"Hold before we begin, we must make restitutions to the rest of the world. The energy passageway that allows Luna's kind to travel great distance to be on this planet caused damage to lots of cities. Many people were frightened! We should at least attempt to put some of it back!" Mage insisted.

"We shall with the help of all the citizens of Haven. For now let us finish the Ritual. High Priestess Circe, would you assist High Priestess Tawret in completing the Ritual of Unification?" Luna asked.

"It would be my honor," Circe said handing her daughter to Rex. Everyone kneeled as Circe took her spot next to Mage by the alter. Luna stood by Tawret who was holding the elixir. "People of Haven tonight the unification of the Mother Moon with her chosen avatar, Rhiannon Mage, shall take place. As followers of the old ways it is our duty to guard and protect them on their journey, but never forget that they are here to learn and help build a brighter future. Rhiannon Mage do you accept your destiny of being the avatar for Luna for the rest of your life?"

"I do. I wish to share my life experiences with my Goddess. To build a bright future and light the way in darkness for those are lost," Mage replied.

"Goddess Luna, Mother of Magic, Healer of Wounds, and Guardian of the Night do you accept this girl as your chosen vessel to complete the Prophecy you bestowed on us?"

"I shall High Priestess Tawret and I promise to fulfill the terms of the Prophecy," Luna replied. Both she and Mage took sips of the elixir. Locking hands together Circe and Tawret chanted in ancient tongue using the moon's power to merge the two. Slowly Luna's body transformed into energy and migrated inside Mage's body. Her magenta hair was suddenly streaked with silver, her cinnamon skin lightened as one eye turned black. Silver jewelry appeared on her body as the last of Luna's essence entered her body. There was a burst of energy as Mage floated into the air. When she spoke her voice echoed with Luna's. "People of Haven the Unification is complete. Two have become one. We have used most of our powers to ensure a successful union. Now join hands and focus your manna towards me. We will need all your help to restore what has been harmed by our coming."

Normal, Guardian, Questers and Council all joined hands together focusing their power on hovering girl. The auras become visible and started glowing with intense energy. Circe and Tawret channeled the energy into Rhiannon who focused it. The energy started surrounding her in an atom power before she unleashed the power onto the world.

Everyone felt it. Six and Bobo were knocked to the ground as the power expanded passed them. In its wake nature grew and flourished. When it passed through Abysus the land was transformed into a healthy flourishing environment that could sustain itself no longer needing Van Kliess constant care. Providence was shaken to the core as the energy worked its way through the building fixing damage, cutting down pollution, and leaving a little surprise in the Hold.

"Report! Was that attack? What just happened?" White Knight ordered.

"Not an attack Gramps a miracle. The sensors determined the wave was massive concentration of manna energy embedded with strands of cosmic energy. The epicenter of the event is Haven and the energy has encompassed the entire planet, but don't get your suit in a twist. It hasn't done anything bad. If anything its improved the world!" Anya reported.

"She's right sir. Sensors are picking up new growth and rejuvenation in old forest, jungles, any place of nature. Pollution levels in all areas have been reduced by fifty percent, the ozone has been fixed by twenty percent. The magical places that erupted in towns have merged creating a perfect blend of old and new. I think that Rex and his team did it."

"Now all they have to do is come home."

Rhiannon/Luna was saying goodbye to her friends before returning them to Six. "We have a lot of work to do and there's much for me to learn, but I think I'll be okay. The Council wanted to let me know you that were honoring the alliance between our two covenants. Working together I think we can build a bright future. This bag contains several books and scrolls about magic and more about your specialty Circe. There is also some stuff for training for Guardians and some tips for raising a magical baby. I'm going to miss you my friends," Rhiannon said.

"Thank you for everything. I was so angry when I first learned my legacy, but now I'm proud. I'm really going to try to be a good High Priestess," Circe said. She smiled and happily rocked Eilonwy who was making happy gurgles.

"Yeah we're going to do our best to help you with the future. Plus I can't wait to learn some spells to get back at Bobo!"

"Don't worry I'll make sure he stays in line," Noah promised.

"I'll help out too! I haven't felt this good in so long!"

"Well I guess since the mission is over Jermaine and I can be released from our contract and return home. It was an honor meeting all of you. This was one of the best experiences of my life and I hope that one day you can visit our world. We may not have nanites, but it's still a lot of fun," Stacey commented hugging everyone in turn.

"I was hoping to beat you two at some b-ball, but I guess it will have to wait until our next visit. Keep strong and you'll make it." Jermaine reminded the group fist bumping the boys.

"Yeah it was great to meet you two! I hope we do see each other again. You guys are great friends no matter what world you're in," Rex said. The others nodded.

"Thank you for your assistance. If we ever need your services again I'll summon you back. For now are you ready to go home?" Rhiannon/Luna asked. The two Dragons nodded and held hands in anticipation. Rhiannon/Luna produced the two contracts from her pocket. Tying them up in a silk ribbon she started chanting. "Magic forces black and white reaching across space and light. The deed is done, the service fulfilled. Undo what has been done. Return thy warriors from which they've come." The contracts burst into flames turning to dust that whirled around the two until they vanished from sight. They were gone. A silvery tear opened up behind the group. "Its time for you to go. I will see you soon hopefully. Blessed be my friends."

"Blessed be!" the group chorused. They reappeared next to Six and Bobo who were just getting things back up after the wave of manna. He didn't say anything just helped them into the transport. A few hours later they were back in Providence where Doc and Holiday gave the little baby a check up while Breach and Noah did the report. Van Kliess was there and was fascinated by the whole story.

"Do you believe this so called Goddess is a threat to the world?"

"No, her people helped our kind long ago and let us make our own choices. The people of Haven along with Rhiannon and Luna wish to help the world in its time of need. There our allies not our enemy," Noah responded.

"Besides she said that the wave of manna that passed through here did something special. She said someone was almost completely healed. Have you discovered what she meant by that?" Breach asked.

"Six, were we compromised in anyway?"

"Nothing showed up on sensors and all EVOs are accounted for. Nothing seems out of place I have no idea what they are talking about."

"That's because you didn't ask me Kaori and I happen to know the one thing Rhiannon would attempt as a peace offering," Anya said entering the room with someone under a doctor's coat next to her. Everyone stopped what they were doing wondering who the guest was. "Rhiannon never got over the fact the first time she tried to use her EVO powers to heal it backfired. I think this was her way of making up for what happened. Quintessa, this is one is for you. Say hello to Ulani,"

Holiday gasped as the lab coat was brought down and everyone stared as a beautiful, but tired version of Holiday smiled happily at her twin sister. "Hello Quintessa how are you?" Holiday didn't respond, but she ran over and hugged her twin crying. "Its okay I'm okay."

"But how she was an incurable!" White Knight exclaimed.

"The collective powers of all that manna magnified by Rhiannon and Luna were not enough to rid the planet of nanites or solve everything at once. They don't have that power. But they did have enough to do one thing to prove they want to join with us. I'm glad you got your sister back Holiday," Rex said with a tinge of sadness. He still hadn't found all of his, but he would.

"Looks like we all get our families back. Looks like it's a new beginning for all of us," Circe said. Everyone agreed and finally after seven days of emotion and torture the newly engaged couple could settle into their room and start living life as a family.
