M.A.G.I.C.: The Next Guardian Generation

Subject: M.A.G.I.C.: The Next Guardian Generation Sat 21 Nov 2009, 12:44

It was a sunny Saturday morning in Heatherfield. The five most-well known girls of Sheffield Institute: Madison Vandom, Anabelle Lair, Gabrielle Cook, Ilyssa Hale and Caressa Lin were hanging around at the Silver Dragon, the restaurant now owned by Hay Lin; Caressa's mother. Madison was Will's daughter, Anabelle was Irma's daughter, Gabrielle was Taranee's daughter, and Ilyssa was Cornelia's daughter. Little did they know their mothers were once magical...

All five daughters of the former guardians were eating fortune cookies when suddenly Caressa's mother walked into the room.

"Hello, girls," Hay Lin greeted her daughter's friends. "How are you?"

"Hello, Miss Lin," the girls greeted back.

"Mom, what are you doing here?" Caressa asked.

"Truthfully, I need to tell you all something very special," Hay Lin told them, happy that she could pass on her guardianship to her daughter. "I was once a guardian of the veil."

Caressa was bewildered. "What's that?"

"Let me tell you girls a little story," Hay Lin began, repeating the words of her grandmother. "A very long time ago, there was once a time with no evildoers, until, a man named Prince Phobos came along, and let his evildoers through a portal that divided good from bad, called the Veil. Every millenium the Veil is broken, and all the villains return...to hurt Kandrakar and all other worlds..."

"Is this a joke?" Ilyssa questioned with a skeptical look.

"No, Ilyssa, it's not," Hay Lin told her. "And, you all will be passed on the job of being a guardian." She sighed. "In a few minutes, I will never be a guardian again..."

"You were once a guardian, too?" Caressa gasped.

Hay Lin sobbed. "Yes...how I wish I didn't have to give this up. Transforming, the air..." Her eyes were swollen. "All your mothers...and I...were once W.I.T.C.H., and we defeated many villians together. Will had Quintessence, Irma had Water, Taranee had Fire, and Cornelia had Earth. I...had power over Air."

Caressa couldn't believe what she was hearing.

Hay Lin walked over to Anabelle and Gabrielle, touching the palms of their hands. "Anabelle, you have now been granted the gift of Water, and Gabrielle, you have been granted the gift of Fire."

Then, she made her way to Ilyssa. "You, Ilyssa, have been granted the gift of Earth."

She sobbed more as she made her way to her own daughter, passing the power on to her. "My dear Caressa, you have been granted the gift of Air."

Hay Lin wiped her tears and stood strong. "I am sorry for losing control," she apologized.

"It's okay. We understand how hard it must be," Madison comforted. "But...what about me?"

A smile came to Hay Lin's face. "You will be the leader, and you shall have the power of the Heart of Kandrakar." She gently placed the Heart into Madison's hands. She looked at the clock and gasped. "Oh, look at the time...I must go and see my friends."

She gently shut the door and left her daughter and her friends to discuss what she had told them. She stepped into her car and drove to Heatherfield Park, where her former fellow guardians waited.

"Is it really over?" Will sighed.

Hay Lin nodded, crying. "I'll never see my grandmother again..."

Suddenly, a flash of light hit them.

Thanks, guys! More:

Suddenly, they were in Kandrakar. There was the Oracle, Yan Lin, and Luba. "Welcome, guardians," the Oracle greeted.

"Oracle!" they all cried, rushing to him.
"Welcome back," Yan Lin told them. "I'm afraid this will be the last time we'll meet for a while."
"Grandma!" Hay Lin gasped, rushing to hug her grandmother. "What do you mean?"
"What she means," Luba began. "Is that the time has come. You are no longer guardians of the veil."

Will began to cry. She turned to her friends. "Well, guys," she sobbed. "We're not W.I.T.C.H. anymore. We're just...normal...human...beings...we're not W.I.T.C.H. anymore..."

Her friends rushed to her side, a look of despair in their eyes.

"Does this mean our bond has broken? We're all going to split?" Hay Lin said, tears overcrowding in her eyes.
"No, just that you're not guardians anymore..." Yan Lin said.

Will hugged her arms to her body. "I need to say Guardians Unite...one last time..."

"It's too late, I'm afraid," the Oracle informed her.

Will screamed. "No! I...I..." She took a deep breath, calming herself. "I'm not a guardian anymore..."

The Oracle sighed. "I'm sorry, Will...we would've kept you guardians for eternity...but there is always a new generation..."

"Couldn't we be the last generation?" Will sobbed. "Couldn't we have stayed as we were? Why? WHY?"
The Oracle hugged Will. "Calm down, Will. I will always be with you, deep inside your heart."
"But...I can't say goodbye to Grandma," Hay Lin insisted.
"You don't have to," Yan Lin told her. "When your time has come, you will become Kandrakar elders."

Will sighed. "That's not good enough. I need to say Guardians Unite, otherwise we won't be a team anymore..."

"You can't," Luba said. "It will make no difference. The words will mean nothing to any of us, including me as well."

Will grabbed Luba's wrists. "SHUT UP, LUBA! You could NEVER understand! Wanna know WHY? Because you hated us from the start! You're the last person I wanted to see when I was told I wasn't a guardian anymore! You doubted us, and we were the best guardians in history! So shut your mouth!!!"

Luba quieted down. Will turned to the Oracle and Yan Lin. "I'm sorry for my outbursts. I accept that I am no longer a guardian, as well as my friends. We will surely miss you, Yan Lin, and you as well, Oracle." Will and her friends hugged the Oracle and Yan Lin before saying their last goodbye to Kandrakar until their time would come.

The light brought them back to Heatherfield Park. Will broke into more sobs. Her friends gathered around her, hugging her tight, sharing their despair and pain as well.

Will wiped her tears. "Promise me we will never split up."

Her friends nodded, knowing that they wouldn't ever split up, no matter what circumstances.
----------------

Later that day, Madison and her friends met in their favorite restaurant, the Golden, for a talk. Madison took a sip of her soda and spoke up, making sure her voice wasn't too loud. "Are you guys scared of this whole guardian thing? I am, and I feel like I'm the only one."

Ilyssa rolled her black eye-shadowed eyes. "You actually believe that crap about guardians? We're not some magical fairies. Why the hell would I want wings? Way too damn girly."

Caressa glared at Ilyssa. "Will you give it a chance? Who knows. It could be fun..."

"Fun?" Ilyssa laughed. "Fun is listening to Metal. Fun is painting my nails black. Fun is not being a fairy."

"That's what you think," Gabrielle argued, taking a bite of her cheeseburger. "Besides, your so-called 'fun' is things only you are interested in."

Ilyssa dug her fork into her macaroni, ignoring Gabrielle's words.

After they were all finished eating, they went outside to test their powers. Madison took out the heart. "How do I activate this thing?" Just as she said that, the Heart began to glow, shooting out multicolor beams toward each of the girls. Madison's eyes began to glow. "Guardians Unite!" she yelled.

"Water!" cried Anabelle.
"Fire!" cried Gabrielle.
"Earth!" cried Ilyssa.
"Air!" cried Caressa.

Ilyssa frowned. "These outfits are so retarded! I hate them!!! And why did I get the lame outfit?!?!"

"Awesome!" Caressa gasped. "Wow!"

Madison stared at herself. She was thinner, and had more curves, more of a bust than usual. "Uh, why am I so...different?" She took the Heart and placed it around her neck.

Gabrielle pointed a finger in the air, a small flame appearing. The flame grew larger and set a nearby bush on fire. She looked at her own index finger in shock. "Oh my gosh," she mumbled.

Anabelle let loose a blast of water, putting it out. "Wow, that's awesome!! But be careful, Gabby...or you'll set all of Heatherfield on fire."

Ilyssa sat on a nearby rock. "Even my element is stupid. Earth? What do I do? Help grow gardens? I hate being a guardian already." Suddenly, a black rose grew from the ground. "Or maybe it's not too bad..." she said with a grin. "If I could have a whole bouquet." Five more black roses bloomed. "Now that's my style."

Caressa conjured up a small tornado in her hands to test her element. "Air...hmmm...not too bad...whirlwinds are kinda cool."

Madison whistled, getting the attention of her new fellow guardians. "Girls, focus. We may need this power for something larger than just playing around." Suddenly, she felt two hands clamp down on her shoulders, turning her the opposite way. She came face to face with a tall man with blonde braided hair and blue robes.

Madison turned red with anger. "What the heck? Who are you?"

"The name's Prince Phobos. I see you and your friends are the new guardian group, Madison Vandom."

Subject: Re: M.A.G.I.C.: The Next Guardian Generation Mon 07 Jun 2010, 12:13

AWESOME, DCQ! Shocked

Keep going!

Subject: Re: M.A.G.I.C.: The Next Guardian Generation Sun 27 Jun 2010, 15:55

Thanks guys! Here's more:

Madison just stood there in complete and utter shock. This man somehow knew her, too? She didn't know whether to be angry or scared. "W-What in the world? H-How do you know me?" she stuttered.

"Of course I know you," Phobos replied, a smirk forming on his lips.

Madison's shock turned to anger. "What are you, a stalker?"

Phobos let out a small chuckle and stepped closer, making Madison step backwards. "Afraid?" he taunted.

Madison's brows furrowed. "I won't let you play with my feelings. I may be new to this, but that doesn't mean I'm not capable of killing you."

Phobos took her hand. "You're as beautiful as your mother."

Will stepped forward. "What's that, Phobos?" she demanded. "Trying to compliment me, you sick bastard?"

Phobos let go of Madison's hand, making his way over to Will. "I see you've grown up into a woman, Will," he said. "So your daughter's the new leader?"

Will narrowed her eyes at Phobos. "Yes I have. I see you haven't grown up at all, and why should you care about Madison? She's my daughter, not yours."

Phobos laughed. "No, you're wrong. That human, Neil, is not the father of your child. I am."

Will's eyes widened. "No...NO!" she screamed. "That's impossible!!"

Madison was shocked as well, unable to speak.

Phobos looked Will in the eyes. "Is it, Will?"

Will shook her head. "You can't be the father. I may not've known who the father was when I had the baby with Neil by my side...but that doesn't mean that it's you."

"I'm afraid not," Phobos told Will. "Remember that time you first saw me, when I captured you in my castle for the first time?"

Will nodded. "And?"

Phobos continued. "Well, before your friends came to save you, before I locked you away in a cage, I knocked you out...and...I guess you know the rest."

Will looked at Phobos, terrified. "All these years...it was you...?"

"Yes," Phobos admitted.

Will started to lose her balance, feeling dizzy, but Phobos caught her in his arms, disappearing with her, bringing her back to Meridian with him.

"MOM!" Madison screamed.

Awesome. Poor Will, and poor Madison. Can't wait for more! ^^

Subject: Re: M.A.G.I.C.: The Next Guardian Generation Wed 30 Jun 2010, 10:41

Cool story so far DCQ.

More WillxPhobos I see, well sort of XD. Anyway, keep up the good work!! ^_^.

Subject: Re: M.A.G.I.C.: The Next Guardian Generation Sun 04 Jul 2010, 15:12

Thanks for the comments, guys! bounce

Here's some more:

Madison dropped to her knees and began crying. "Why?" she sobbed. "Why was I picked to be a guardian?" Her tears were crowding her view now.

Ilyssa knelt down beside her. "I feel the same way," she told her.

Madison looked her friend in the eyes. "How could this 'Phobos' dude just take away my mom like that?? And he can't be my dad!!!"

Gabrielle walked over. "He probably isn't. Maybe he's tricking your mom into thinking he is...."

Madison shook her head. "He has to be. I have his eyes." All her fellow guardians got quiet.

Back in Meridian, Will was still in the arms of Phobos, trying to wriggle her way out. "Let go of me!" she screamed. "I hate you!"

Phobos sat down in his throne and made her sit in his lap. "You don't hate me, Will. I know you don't."

"You're an evil man! How can I NOT hate you?" Will crossed her arms.

"Listen to me, Will." Phobos brushed his lips across her cheek.

Will pulled her face away from his, refusing to give into him. He was evil, sick, and twisted. She didn't want anything to do with him. He had taken her away from her own daughter! "I will not listen."

Phobos slid his hand into her own. "Please listen. I only want to talk."

Will turned away from him. "Get me back to my daughter."

Phobos turned her back. "Will. Just calm down."

Will slapped him, leaving a small red mark on his cheek. "Don't tell me what to do!"

Phobos sighed. Why wouldn't Will just obey him? It would make things much easier. He pulled her even closer, until their faces were almost touching.

Will only had an angry expression written all over her face. "Stop this, Phobos. You are not the father of my child!!" She could feel Phobos' breath on her face now.

Phobos looked into her almond eyes. "I am. Please believe me, Will. Your daughter has my eyes."

Will thought of her daughter. She did have Phobos' baby blue eyes. "B-But..."

Phobos crushed his lips against hers, silencing her before she could protest. And suddenly, he felt her loosen up, give into his kiss. He stroked her red hair.

Will couldn't believe what she was doing. She was betraying Neil, but at the same time, she realized she didn't really care about him. She wrapped her arms around Phobos, trying to make the kiss last a little longer. After a few seconds she pulled away, her cheeks a deep red.

Phobos smiled at her. "I knew you didn't hate me."

"I do hate you," Will insisted. "I just let you kiss me so you'd shut up."

Phobos caressed the side of her face. "Really, Will? I'm much smarter than that."

Will sighed. "Okay, fine...I don't hate you...I love you..."

"I knew it," Phobos replied. He hugged her closer. "I love you too."

Will knew inside she really did love Phobos, and he was the father. She just wondered how she'd explain this to Neil...

This is really interesting XD keep it up DCQ =)

Ah, more WillxPhobos...lol. Pretty good, though! Keep going, sis.

Subject: Re: M.A.G.I.C.: The Next Guardian Generation Thu 15 Jul 2010, 17:29

Yup, WillxPhobos is one of my favorite couples.

Here's more:

Back in Heatherfield, Madison was over at Caressa's house for the night. Without her mother, where could she stay besides a friend's house? She sat on Caressa's bed, looking out the window into the starry night sky.

Caressa came inside, knocking on the door to indicate her arrival. "Hey, Maddie. Want some hot chocolate?" She grinned and held up two mugs.

Madison nodded, figuring a warm drink would help calm her. "Thanks."

Caressa handed her the mug and took a seat beside her. "Don't worry, we'll get your mom back," she promised her friend.

"I hope so," Madison replied, tears falling down her cheeks.

Caressa felt so bad, seeing her friend cry. She hugged Madison tightly, trying to comfort her. "It'll be okay, Maddie. It really will. We're guardians."

Madison shook her head. "It's 'cause of this stupid Heart thing that my mom's in that Phobos guy's hands!"

Caressa pursed her lips, not sure what else to say. After a minute she said, "Look. Tomorrow, we'll get my mom's help and find out how to rescue your mom."

Madison felt a bit better. "You're the greatest."

Meanwhile, Will was still in Phobos' lap. "Look, Phobos..." she began. "I know we love each other and all...but can you bring me back to our daughter? I can sense that she's really worried about me."

Phobos ran his fingers through Will's hair, which was now longer. "Will, I understand, but can't you at least spend tonight with me?"

Will hesitated. "But my daughter is a top priority..."

"And I'm not?" Phobos asked.

"C'mon, Phobos. This is no time to be arrogant."

"I'm not being arrogant! I'm just saying you haven't seen me in over 20 years, and it's about time we had a reunion."

"I know I haven't seen you in a while, it's just that I can't stand to see my own daughter worry about me when she should be worrying about herself."

Phobos sighed. "Will, just tonight? I promise she'll be fine."

Will got off his lap. "I can't, Phobos. I'm returning whether you like it or not." She was about to take off when Phobos grabbed her wrists, pulling her back into his chest.

"You're staying here," Phobos commanded.

"Phobos, let go of me."

"No. You will stay here with me for tonight and return tomorrow."

"You're being an ass about this! Release my wrists NOW!"

Phobos tightened his grip softly. "Please, Will," he whispered gently into her ear.

Will immediately loosened up, giving in to his smooth voice. "Fine. But only tonight."

Phobos smiled. "That's the Will I know and love." He carried Will to his room and shut the door.

Caressa was sound asleep now, with Madison sleeping in her guest bed.

But Madison wasn't sleeping, she was tossing and turning. She was in the middle of a nightmare. In the nightmare, she was on her knees in a dark space, and her mother was in front of her.

"Mom?" she gasped.

"Madison," her mother spat, wrinkling her nose in disgust.

Then, Phobos appeared, pulling her mother into his grasp. "Madison, be a good girl and let me take your mother for myself."

Madison ran up to him, screaming, "No! I won't let you have her!"

Her mother looked at her, a smirk on her face. "But he's right, Madison. I belong with him only..." Her mother cackled.

Madison's eyes widened as Phobos grabbed her by the neck of her blouse.

"Say goodbye, brat," Phobos said.

Madison woke up, gasping for air and sweating.

Caressa turned on her table lamp. "Maddie, you alright?"

Madison shook her head. "I had a nightmare where my mother chose Phobos over me and laughed in my face!"

Caressa rubbed her eyes. "Maddie, it was just a nightmare. I'm going downstairs to get some water." Caressa pushed her bed covers off and snuck downstairs. Right as she turned the faucet on, someone grabbed her from behind, covering her mouth to stifle her screams.

Thanks so very much, Soliar.x! Very Happy

Here's some more:

Caressa was carried away, as someone jumped with her through a portal. She was so terrified that she fainted. She later awoke in a cage, in a castle. A man with long dirty blonde hair tied back into a ponytail stepped up to the cage.

"Hello," he greeted with a smirk. "My name is Cedric. And you are in the prison of Prince Phobos' castle."

"Ew, I don't like you already," Caressa replied. "And isn't this Phobos dude the one who took Maddie's mom?"

"Address Prince Phobos in a proper manner, you little brat!" Cedric screamed.

"And what do you need me for??"

"I am not allowed to discuss that. Now shut up."

Hay Lin was back on Earth, in The Silver Dragon. She looked out the window, taking a sip of her raspberry tea. Her friends Irma, Taranee and Cornelia surrounded her.

"How in the heck can we get Will back?" Irma demanded.

Hay Lin turned to face her friend. "There's a portal open to get to Meridian."

"We're powerless, how can we help? And besides...what portal?"

"We'll find something to do. And there's definitely a portal. I'm getting a vibe that my daughter was just taken by Cedric, and Cedric left the portal open."

"The bastard!" Cornelia gasped.

"Watch your language," Taranee said.

"I'm gonna go call Madison so she can contact her friends..." Hay Lin suggested.

Cornelia put her hands on her hips. "At this hour, Hay Lin? She's probably asleep."

Hay Lin shook her head and called Madison anyways.

Madison felt startled as she felt a vibration in her pocket. She took out her BlackBerry to see "Call: Hay Lin's Mom" flashing on the screen. She pressed talk and said, "Hello? Mrs. Lin?"

"Hello, Madison," Hay Lin replied. "Can you contact the other guardians? Caressa's been taken, I can sense it."

Madison stifled a gasp. "What? Her too? All she told me was that she was going to get some water...I guess that's why I've been waiting her to return for so long. Anyways...okay...I'll get them to The Silver Dragon as fast as I can, Mrs. Lin."

Soon enough, Madison's friends arrived at The Silver Dragon, rubbing sleep out of their eyes.

Annabelle yawned. "Why'd we have to come so late?"

Taranee stood up. "Girls, this is an emergency. Caressa, your friend, has been taken."

Gabrielle and Ilyssa's eyes widened. "Then let's go save her!"

Just a little while later, the girls were in Meridian, and outside of Phobos' castle.

"How are we planning on getting inside?" Annabelle questioned.

"Shhh," Irma told her daughter. "We're going to sneak in...now crouch."

Little by little, all the girls inched their way across the wall, getting in through a window. An alarm suddenly went off, alerting Phobos and the rest of everyone in the castle that guardians had entered. Phobos only ignored it.

Guards ran off, searching for the guardians.

Thanks SC12 & I#1F! Razz

More for my readers~:

Madison's gulped. "We're so dead if the guards find us...we just got our powers."

"Calm down, we can handle this," Gabrielle reassured her friend.

A total of ten guards stepped out in front of them all. "There they are! Get them!"

Madison took out the heart. "I hope I can do this..." She placed the heart around her neck. "Guardians...Unite!" A pink swirl spun around her torso and a beautiful turquoise top with a pink jewel formed. Another swirl spun around her lower half, giving her a purple skirt with a slit in the right side. Black boots and purple & turquoise gloves appeared on her hands. Her wings unfurled, spreading out beautifully. "Quintessence!" she cried.

"Water!" Anabelle yelled.

"Fire!" Gabrielle screamed.

"Earth!" Ilyssa proclaimed.

All four landed on the ground.

Madison took on the first guard. She did a low kick, tripping the guard and making it land on its behind. Another guard came up behind her and picked her up, wrapping its arms around her small waist tightly. She kicked and squirmed. "Let me go, you ginormous freak!"

Suddenly, the guard was blasted. It turned to see a girl with blonde hair and black-eye shadowed eyes.

"Let her go, you ugly creature!" the girl screamed.

Madison smiled. "Ilyssa!" she cried. "Tell Gabrielle to light the monster's feet on fire!"

Ilyssa nodded and ran off to go get Gabrielle. Gabrielle followed Ilyssa back and lit the monster's feet on fire. The monster jumped around and finally dropped Madison onto the floor.

Madison quickly crawled to her friends. "Thanks, I thought I was a goner."

Taranee punched a guard while Cornelia kicked another with her big-heeled boot in the face.

"Nice," Taranee laughed.

"Wow, ten years and I can still kick butt," Cornelia giggled.

Hay Lin knocked two more guards down while Ilyssa tied three up with vines.

Anabelle used two giant waves to knock the last three out. "Taken care of," she declared proudly.

Phobos ran out into the main room and as he spotted the guardians and their mothers, his anger flared. "Get out of my castle!" he screamed.

"Not until you give me back my mother!" Madison screamed back.

Will ran out into the room, infuriated. "Phobos...why'd you leave me?" She looked over to see what had caused his departure. "M-Madison?" she gasped.

"Mom?" Madison said.

"Why are you here?"

"To save you."

"But...Madison, I don't want to be saved. I...love Phobos."

Madison's eyes widened. Her head felt as if it was spinning. She hit the floor, getting knocked unconscious. A little while later, she could hear very distinct voices. She couldn't make them out too well.

"Madison? Madison?" she finally heard. Her eyes slowly opened. All her friends and even her mother were lingering over her. She slowly sat up. "What happened?"

"You fainted," Will told her daughter. "I had told you I loved Phobos."

Madison glared at her mother, finally remembering. "Why do you love him? He's an evil man!"

Will shook her head. "He's your father, Madison. How can I not love him?"

Madison's eyes crowded with tears that threatened to spill. "You don't care about me, do you? I HATE YOU!" She ran out of the castle, and her friends ran after her.

Irma, Taranee, Cornelia and Hay Lin surrounded Will.

"What's up with you, Will?" Irma asked. "Suddenly you don't care about Madison?"

"I care for her with all my heart," Will admitted. "But I care about Phobos too."

"Phobos is nothing but an evil man, like Madison said," Cornelia told Will.

"How can he be the father of your child?" Taranee added.

"Don't choose Phobos over your own daughter!" Hay Lin exclaimed.

All the cries coming from her friends were overwhelming Will. "STOP!" she yelled. "Look, I don't know what to do." She walked over to Phobos and looked into his eyes. "What do you think?"

"I think you should stay here," Phobos told her truthfully. "With Madison too."

Will looked over at her friends, who all looked forlorn. She then thought of her daughter's fellow guardians. She knew she couldn't bear to leave them. She looked back at Phobos, tears overcrowding her eyes. "P-Phobos," she stuttered. "I choose to live on Earth, with my daughter and all my friends."

Phobos had an angry expression on his face at first, but then the look turned crestfallen. "If you say so, my dear." He vehemently pulled her into an embrace.

As Will was embracing him, she could feel his heart pounding and wondered if she'd made the right decision. They then shared a romantic kiss, and Will couldn't help but sob. She turned to her friends. "Go find Caressa, I need a few moments with Phobos."

Her friends nodded and went off to find Caressa.

Will continued her hug with Phobos. "You know I love you, right?"

"Of course. And I love you too, my sweet princess."

"My sweet prince." Will sighed. "Can you come back to Earth, even if just for a little bit?"

Phobos shook his head. "Sorry, dear. I can't." He wiped Will's continous tears. "Promise me you'll visit again?"

Will nodded. "Of course."

Phobos handed her a rose. "Think of me always."

Will thanked him and walked out the door with her friends. After apologizing to Madison, they all went back to Earth, and rested for the remainder of the night.

~Chapter 2~

Will awoke the next morning, her face streaked with tears. She looked at her bedside table to see Phobos' rose and sighed. It wasn't a dream. "C'est la vie," she whispered and got up. She wiped her tears and made a cup of coffee, sitting on her sofa. The time was 10:00 am in the morning.

Madison sat down beside her mother. "Good morning, mom."

"Honey, what are you doing up so early? It's a Sunday," Will asked, curious.

"I was so worried about you all night," Madison admitted.

"You shouldn't be, I'm fine," Will insisted. She smiled. "Thanks anyways. You're a great daughter. Now go back to bed, I'll make some lunch in a little while."

"But I'm not tired," Madison protested. "Please? Let's watch the news or something."

Will shook her head; her daughter was so stubborn. "Okay."

Caressa and Gabrielle were over at Heatherfield Cafe, grabbing some lattes.

Caressa rubbed her eyes. "Gabby, didja have to bring me here so early? I was in the middle of a dream about Tyler." Tyler was Caressa's crush, and was always on her mind. "I'm exhausted."

"I think that dream just might be fulfilled," Gabrielle gasped, her eyes widening. "Tyler just came through the door!"

Caressa was immediately alert and questioning her look. "Oh my God! Is my hair alright? Do I have bags under my eyes? Do I look fat? Is what I'm wearing good enough?"

"Caressa, you look fine, stop worrying. Just brush that small hair out of your eye."

Caressa did as she was told.

"Caressa!" Tyler called.

Caressa turned and there was Tyler, in all his glory. That short blonde, curly hair shone in the sunlight, and his beautiful black eyes glistened more than ever before. His muscles were as visible as ever. Her heart began to pound and she felt like she couldn't form a sentence. "H-Hey, Tyler," she greeted nervously as he stood in front of her. "Nice seeing you here."

"I'm glad I caught you, I wanted to ask you a question," Tyler told her.

Caressa could swear she almost stopped breathing. "Really? W-What?"

"Can I buy you breakfast and hang out with you for a while?"

Caressa almost fainted and Gabrielle giggled with glee. Gabrielle grinned as she picked up her latte. "Well, I've got some important chores to take care of," she lied. "Bye! Have fun, you two!" She bounded out the door.

Caressa turned red. "O-Of course you can." She could swear Tyler had just turned a bit red too. She felt so happy inside.

After eating egg muffins and sipping coffee with Tyler, they both ventured off to the nearest antique store.

Caressa picked up a vintage lamp. "No way!" she gasped. "These lamps are from the 1930's!"

"I'll buy it," Tyler offered.

"R-Really?" Caressa stuttered again. She was so incredibly nervous, so nervous that she knocked over a glass vase. It tumbled to the floor, shattering into a million pieces.

After helping the woman behind the counter clean the mess up, she apologized.

The woman smiled. "Don't worry about it."

Caressa turned back to Tyler. "Tyler, sorry I'm so clumsy-"

She couldn't even finish her sentence before a girl with black hair in a low ponytail walked through the door. Her high heels clicked against the tile floor as she approached Tyler. "Hey, Ty," she greeted. "Who's she?"

Caressa gulped. "I'm Caressa Lin."

"Why are you in here with her?" the girl demanded.

"Don't worry, we're just friends," Tyler insisted. He turned back to Caressa. "Caressa, this is Lilliette. My girlfriend."

"Yeah, his girlfriend," Lilliette repeated, glaring at Tyler. "Nice meeting you, I guess. I hope this will be the last time I will."

Caressa looked at the both of them, her eyes filling with tears. She felt like the vase as she rushed out the door, the tears flowing down her face. She ran faster and faster down the sidewalk, her heart broken. The pain was so overwhelming that she tripped and scraped her knees. She cried into her hands and just sat there.

Meanwhile, Ilyssa was furious. "I'm not getting grounded!" she screamed. "What the hell did I do to deserve it?"

Cornelia crossed her arms. "First of all, don't use that type of language in this house. And second, you're grounded because you tattooed your wrist! WITHOUT my approval!"

"Yeah, like you'd ever approve it!"

"How can I? You're FOURTEEN, Ilyssa!! You're a TEENAGER! You know what kind of a mother they'll think I am if they see that on you?!"

"WHO CARES?? You're always worried about your rep, and not about me!! It's always ME, ME, ME! You could care less about me!"

"That's not true, Ilyssa, and you know it!"

"You always spend time with Peter, telling him how wonderful he is and how he's so amazing! You never tell me how great I am! Is it because I dress different? Because you wanted a peppy little cheerleader daughter?! Well I hate to break it to you, BUT THIS IS WHO I AM! And you know what? I HATE YOU!" Ilyssa bounded up the stairs, slamming her door so hard Cornelia's ears rung.

"Ilyssa!" Cornelia called. She sat down on the couch, sad.

Madison was busy sitting in the window seat at her house, munching on a couple of Teddy Grahams when she was texted. She clicked Open Message to discover it was a message from Caressa.

It read:

Madison, please come get me. I left my phone at home and I'm sobbing. I found out Tyler has a girlfriend and I scraped my knees. I'm a total mess. Please take me home. I'm by the Antique Shop on Veresta Street."

Madison texted "I'm on my way" back. "Mom?" she called.

"Yeah?" Will responded.

"I'm gonna go walk Caressa home, I'll be back in a couple of minutes!"

"Okay, just be careful!"

Madison dashed out the door so fast she almost tripped. Rain began pouring down as she ran to the antique shop. It felt like years until she finally reached the shop to see a soaked and swollen-eyed Caressa. "Caressa!" she cried over the rain.

"Madison!" Caressa gasped. She hugged her friend. "Thank God."

"We gotta get back home before this storm gets worse! Hurry!"

The two girls dashed through the rain as fast as they could, almost slipping a couple of times. Madison could barely hold onto her umbrella as the wind blew stronger and stronger.

"Can't you do anything about this wind?" Madison questioned.

"I'm barely used to my power yet!"

The umbrella was almost slipping out of Madison's hand until she grabbed it with both hands. They crossed the street and finally made it into the house, shutting the door behind them.

Will gasped. "My God, what happened to you both?"

"Caressa was by herself in the rain, I sensed it. I had to go save her."

"That's my Maddy. Now go change before you both get sick."

They both kicked off their boots and ran upstairs. Once they'd changed and dried off, they sat on the bed to chat.

"Car, why were you out there all alone?"

"I found out Tyler has a girlfriend," Caressa told her, her voice breaking.

"Oh my God," Madison mumbled, shocked.

"And he tells her, 'We're just friends'. Why didn't he just stab me while was at it?"

"I don't think he meant to hurt you."

"Well he did! And his girlfriend was so mean, she doesn't even deserve him..."

"Look at it this way: God is saving you for the right person. Maybe he would've been a horrible boyfriend."

"To date him for a little while would've been good enough. He's all I've been thinking about and all I want. I don't care about anything else, I just want him...and if I lose him..." The tears began falling again. "Oh God, why do I suffer like this?"

"Shhh, it's okay," Madison said, hugging her friend. "Everything will be okay."

"I'm so sick of hearing that."

Madison sighed. "I'm so sorry this happened."

Caressa continued to sob as she muttered, "Me too."

Tyler was still in the antique shop with Lilliette. He turned to her, angry. "Why were you so mean?"

"I wasn't mean, she was flirting with you."

"Well maybe I didn't mind."

Lilliette spun around, anger flaring in her eyes. "Excuse me?"

"You're always so arrogant and complain about everything."

"What happened to 'we're just friends'?"

Tyler realized what he'd done and looked into Lilliette's eyes. "We're over." He dashed out of the antique store, leaving Lilliette on her own. He ran throughout the streets, searching for Caressa.

Caressa got up. "I need to take a walk, I'll be right back." She walked down the stairs and out the door, the stormy sky indicating that it would rain again soon. She didn't care. She was about two blocks from her house when suddenly she was swept off her feet and into the arms of who she'd never expected: Tyler.

Tyler smiled at her as the rain began falling again. "I'm so sorry, I must've hurt you."

He ran all this way just to tell me sorry? she thought angrily.

"You know how I said we were just friends? I realized my true feelings as soon as you left and broke up with Lilliette. Please say you'll be mine?"

Caressa looked into those beautiful eyes of his. He was being sincere. "Yes," she said, grinning as happy tears fell down her face.

He crushed his lips against hers, holding her close. She ran her fingers through his hair, her heart filling with warmth. This was what she'd wanted for so long, and she'd finally gotten her wish fulfilled.

He let her down, still holding her close, then kissed her forehead. "I love you."

"I love you too," she told him, grinning.

He grinned back.

Best day of my life, she thought as they walked to her house together.
