WIDE AWAKE

A MALEX story

Synopsis

Alex Russo & Mason Greyback were the perfect couple until Alex lost the Wizard competition. Now that she's a mortal, Alex and Mason could no longer date as mortals and werewolves are forbidden to date, so they had no choice but to break up. Mason left Waverly Place, leaving Alex heart-broken. Then, one night after Mason left, Alex disappeared. The Wizard police looked everywhere for her, but never found her.

One year later, Mason returns to Waverly Place, having just learned Alex's disappearance. Every time Mason goes to sleep, he dreams of Alex. She talks to him in his dreams. But Alex is in danger. There's a strange, unknown man who wants her to himself. And now that she's a mortal, she can't do anything to save herself. Only Mason can save Alex now. But since everyone except Max believes she's dead, Mason and Max set off to save Alex. But will they ever find her? And will Mason still want Alex when she's hiding a dark secret?

Chapter 1 ~ Asleep

Mason: Alex?

Alex turned to face Mason. Her dark hair flowed in the breeze; she was wearing a long white dress and no shoes. She had never looked so beautiful.

Alex: What is it?

Mason: I've been thinking...for a long time...

Alex: What about?

Mason: I never thought werewolves could ever feel for humans. Especially gorgeous ones.

Alex blushed. They were both in a flowery meadow. The sky was white, but there were no clouds. All the flowers were colourless, but they were beautiful.

Alex: You still love me? Even though I lost the wizard competition?

Mason: You said it yourself; we couldn't be just friends. All I wanted was to be with you. I'll admit, I was gutted when we couldn't be together...but, we're here now,,,right?

Alex smiled. But before they could kiss...

Mason: What's the matter?

Alex: (clutching her stomach) Nothing...argh, I was hungry and ended up having one of Max's sandwiches.

Mason: I thought you hated his sandwiches.

Alex: I did...I mean, I do!

Mason: You did?

Alex: I do!

Mason: OK, OK, just saying...

Alex: Sorry. I'm all right now.

Mason: OK...

Alex: I just...I love you Mason.

Mason: (smiles) I love you too brown eyes.

Mason closed his eyes and kissed Alex. When he opened them, she disappeared. He was staring at the wall in his bedroom, lying on his bed. Dreaming again. Mason hadn't been able to stop thinking about Alex since she lost the wizard competition. Her older brother Justin had won and Alex and her younger brother Max both lost their powers. This meant Alex and Mason had to break up, because werewolves and mortals are forbidden to date. So Mason had to leave to go back home. He knew Alex was heart-broken.

The next day, Mason went down for some breakfast when he saw the newspaper on the floor. Wizard Weekly, it said. He opened it up to see a picture of Alex. He then read the headline;

THE FIRST ANNIVERSARY OF THE DISAPPEARANCE OF FORMER WIZARD

It has now been a year since former wizard Alex Russo disappeared. Last year Alex, along with younger brother Max Russo, lost their wizard competition where older brother Justin Russo was crowned the family wizard of the Russos. The day after the wizard competition, Alex had gone and never came back.

WizTech headmaster Professor Crumbs had sent Wizard police to search for her but never found her, Justin, also a Monster Hunter, assisted in the search, but was unsuccessful. Her parents, Theresa and former wizard Jerry Russo were said to be 'completely devastated' by the disappearance of their only daughter. Although, Max Russo has a suggestion and clue of Alex's disappearance.

"While we were still wizards, Alex was dating a guy called Mason, who's a werewolf, isn't that awesome!" he told our sources. "But when Justin won, we lost our powers and...Well non-wizards and werewolves can't date so they had to break up. But I think Alex ran off to be with Mason. I think."

For the anniversary, the Russos will be hosting a ceremony, and will be placing some of Alex's things on sale for wizards to come and buy. Also attending is Alex's best friend Harper Finkle, whom Alex told of her wizardry powers while she was still a wizard.
