Crumbled!

"We need to put this place on lockdown after everyone is asleep. No one should be able to get in or out," Hinata instructed. Maya asked how Shan and Vincente would be able to enter.

Hinata reminded her they could get in with their powers and Vincente won't keep Shan there for long. When Hinata tried to access a particular app, it required a password, and Maya became frustrated. 

"I knew it! It's something confidential!" Hinata said and tried typing Madaiyen's name in, but it said it was incorrect. Maya sighed, while an incredible idea sprang into Hinata's mind, "It's Narayana!".

Maya was perplexed by Madaiyen's use of a deceased person's name as her password, but Hinata reminded her that they were sisters. Maya smiled and blushed slightly, saying "What would I do without you?"

Ash had just obtained the bracelet, but was unsure of how to return the key. Luca, ever the problem solver, stepped in and took the key from Ash. He then vanished, only to reappear behind Madaiyen. With a grin, he dropped the key on the ground and took a few steps back. "Hey, Madaiyen, you dropped this," he said, extending his hand to give her the key. Madaiyen, surprised and grateful, accepted the key and thanked Luca. She had no idea what they were up to, but Luca teleported back to meet Ash and Asher, sporting a satisfied smile.

"What did you do, Luca?" Asher asked. Luca said he gave her the key. Ash's jaw dropped. "You let her know what we're up to?!" Luca chuckled, saying he had a way of doing things."

Hinata and Maya arrived at the meeting spot where the boys were already waiting. "We did it! It's completed," Asher exclaimed. Hinata let out a sigh of relief and then proceeded to display the picture of the symbol they had discovered. To everyone's surprise, Asher was left stunned by the image. "That symbol!" he exclaimed as he pulled out the bracelet that had the exact same symbol engraved on it. As everyone gazed in disbelief, Maya couldn't help but exclaim, "No way!"

VAMPIRE KINGDOM

Vincente was feeling exasperated as he struggled to convince Shan about the situation. He had been at it for a while, and it seemed like Shan wasn't willing to budge. Just when Vincente was about to give up, Carrissa appeared with a warm smile on her face. "Hey Vincente, what's going on?" she asked, looking genuinely concerned. Vincente was relieved to see her and quickly explained his predicament. He was trying to solve a problem that he knew was impossible to fix. "Shan, I really need you to understand that there's going to be a fight tomorrow, and Madaiyen will be on Roxton's side," he said, his face etched with worry.

Shan just yelled, saying he didn't care, Carrissa was taken aback by Shan's reaction, and the news she had just heard. "All he cares about is that demon girl...Vaxian" Vincente sighed out of frustration. Shan hated the way Vincente talked about Vaxian and later agreed to help them with the battle tomorrow. 

"This is pure foolishness..." Carrissa said as she rolled her eyes, Vincente was glad Shan had finally agreed, he didn't have to worry about turning him back to normal. As they both teleported back to Borealis, Maya suddenly hugged him, "Shan, you're okay!". 

Shan glared at Maya and snapped, "I'm fine. Now get off me." Maya quickly backed away, confused as to why Shan was still so angry. Hinata didn't understand what was happening, and Ash asked, "Why is he still behaving like this?" Vincente apologized, saying that there was nothing he could do, but added that Shan would be helping out tomorrow.

Hinata was on her way to the Villain's Fall where Vaxain was imprisoned. Her blood was boiling with rage. Maya called out to her, "Hinny! Calm down!" Shan scoffed and said, "Listen to Maya, Vaxian will tear you apart!" Hinata was shocked by her brother's words and couldn't move for a moment. Maya, sensed Hinata's distress, tried to calm her down and said, "I think the situation has affected him too much. Just ignore what he said, Hinata."

Luca was taken aback and couldn't believe what was happening before his eyes. He looked at Shan with a mix of frustration and disappointment, and spoke out loud, "Seriously, Shan, you're letting everyone down!" Asher, who was standing next to Luca, nodded in agreement. They both turned around and left without saying another word. Ash, however, paused for a moment and turned back to Shan, "But...guys, what about the bracelet?" he asked, clearly confused. Hinata was already at her breaking point, snapped at Ash, "Forget about it, we're doing this, with or without Madaiyen!!!" and stormed off. They left Shan all alone. Maya silently followed Hinata as they made their way towards the Villain's Fall.

"I see you've come for a visit," Vaxian said, smirking. Hinata yelled at her for some time, and all Vaxian could do to hurt them more was laugh. Maya was so sick of it that she threw double star blades at Vaxian, and one of them got stuck in her stomach. "Ow! That hurt," Vaxian cackled, feeling the pain again. "But not as much as I hurt you all. Don't make me laugh."

Maya's heart was pounding as she looked at Vaxian, desperate to find a way to turn Shan back to normal. She had made a deal with Vaxian, promising to let her go if she revealed the secret. But Vaxian remained tight-lipped and simply conveyed everything through her mind. Maya was grateful for her telepathy, but her relief didn't last long as she learned the horrifying truth - the only way to reverse Shan's condition was a terrifying process that made her shudder. 

"Come on, Hinata, we should leave," Maya said, her voice shaking as she gently took Hinata's arm. Hinata was confused, wondering why Maya was so insistent on leaving.

"Yeah, you guys should leave," Vaxian smirked, breaking through the chains as if they were made of paper. Maya and Hinata were terrified, wondering why Vaxian didn't break free earlier when she was imprisoned. But Vaxian had no intention of harming them at the moment - she merely vanished into thin air without a word.

"Maya! She has escaped! This is all your fault," Hinata began to sob. Maya held her shoulders and said, "It's okay, I used telepathy. But the thing is, someone Shan loves needs to die before he turns back to normal. That's the only way."

Maya looked down and Hinata was speechless. However, she was relieved that there was a way to get Shan back to his normal self. Hinata then spoke up with a smile, "Then...I'll do it."
