Guardians of the Future
-Chapter I – Leaving Home-
I don't own W.I.T.C.H. but I do own W.Y.T.C.H.
The girls are: 15(Hay Lin) and 16(Will, Irma, Taranee and Cornelia), Orube's 17 and she goes to the Sheffield Institute too.
The boys are: 15(Hades) and 16(Warren, Yuri, T.J. and Cain) while Caleb's 17.
Yes, I do know that Yuri means Lily but in Kaleido Star it was a guy's name, so don't complain.
Also, the boys only look 16 ((15 for Hades.)), they are actually 17((16 for Hades.)).
"Take this, Cedric!" Hades said as he punched the lizard rather hard, sending him to the ground.
"I beg you, Guardians, let me go! I'll leave… I'll leave Meridian!" Cedric said as he rose slightly from the ground. He shivered in fear as he looked up to the boys who'd beaten him up.
"Now…" Warren said somewhat sarcastically "We can't do that, can we, guys?" The leader added with a soft chuckle as his lips then curved into a soft smirk.
"No!" The rest of the boys yelled as they didn't feel like joking on such an important matter.
"No can do, man. He'd start destroying another city and I'm not really in the mood to let this guy go just to catch him again, tomorrow." Cain replied, emphasizing how soon Cedric would start destroying Meridian again.
"I agree with Cain on this one. He isn't worth loosing another day." T.J. added, somewhat annoyed.
"Please, Guardians…Please!" Cedric begged as he stood on his hands and knees in front of the boys, with his gaze towards the ground covered in blood. His blood.
"You're interrupting us! We were in the middle of a very important discussion named "What to do with you"" Hades growled in exasperation as he looked down to the lizard which had changed forms. At least now he was looking… somewhat human.
"Jesus Christ, Hades! Stop acting so childish." Yuri said looking towards his teammate. As he turned towards the rest of the group, he added "So, what do we do with him?"
"Which one, bro? Hades or Cedric?" T.J. asked jokingly, making Warren and Cain chuckle.
"Isn't it obvious? I was talking about Cedric! Grow up T.J. you're acting more childish than Hades!" Yuri replied, somewhat angered by T.J.'s childish mood at such an important moment.
"Hey!" Hades cried out, frowning at Yuri and crossing his arms.
"…Sorry…" Yuri replied while rolling his eyes.
"Although I doubt you mean it… Apologies accepted." Hades responded with a soft sigh and then added "As for our little problem…I suggest we send him to… the Diamond Mines."
"No, no! Anywhere but the Diamond Mines! I'll be dead in less than a day!" Cedric cried out, warping his arms around Warren's leg, and remaining clung to it. Despite Warren's attempts to shake his leg in order to make Cedric let go, the male remained there.
"Who asked you for advice?" All of the boys yelled to the lizard man.
"I do not agree with the Diamond Mines. He will most definitely be dead in less than one hour." Warren replied, crossing his arms and shaking his leg lightly, like a cat with a wet paw.
"Selena always complains about needing a servant with military knowledge…" Cain said out loud although it was only his thought at that moment.
"That's fine by me! This way we will even know what he's doing so no more skipping school." Warren replied happy that Cedric had finally let go of his leg.
"Yeeaahh, suuure. We all know you hate math, Warren, and we also know that it's the next class on our schedule." Cain said with a soft chuckle. The rest of the boys except Warren also chuckled.
"Err…Now guys, my best friends… we'll skip math and say catching Cedric lasted longer...Ok? Please?" Warren pleaded looking to his team mates with big puppy eyes and his hands together as if he was praying.
"I don't see any problem with that plan as long as Cedric doesn't rat us out." Yuri said, looking down to the prisoner.
"I swear that I shall not say anything." Cedric replied, still thankful that the Guardians hadn't killed him.
"Perfect." T.J. and Hades said in unison with big grins on their faces.
"You haven't done your homework, have you?" Cain inquired as he rose a brow, while looking over to Hades and T.J.. A small grin spread across Cain' lips as he saw Warren, Yuri, T.J. and Hades shake their heads. "Good, cause neither have I." the blonde haired added and all of the boys started laughing.
"Guardians…"
"What the…?" Cain inquired as he looked all around him.
"I think it's the Heart of Kandrakar." Warren answered as he looked down to the Heart of Ice which was glowing pink all of a sudden.
"Wasn't that antiquity absorbed by the Heart of Ice?" T.J. asked somewhat amazed as he turned his head towards the pendant lying around Warren's neck.
"From what I remember, it was." Warren replied raising a brow as he stared at the Heart of Ice.
"It's been a long time since then. Is it even possible for it to call us after such a long time?" Hades inquired tilting his head to a side.
"I don't know, bro, I don't know…" Warren replied, not having the slightest clue about what was going on. He was just as confused as the others. Heck, even Cedric was staring at the Heart of Ice strangely.
"Guardians I am the Oracle, from the past. You must come here and help the Guardians of this time learn some very important lessons." The Oracle called out yet again.
"And why in Hell's name would we do that? We have our own problems; the past is none of our concerns!" Cain growled while looking attentively to the Heart of Ice in which he could observe a small figure.
"Because you are the Guardians and because you have a responsibility towards Kandrakar." The Oracle replied, slightly angered by the lack of obedience from the boys' side.
"SO, WHAT? We didn't ask to be chosen as Guardians! We just got here! We worked hard to build ourselves the life that we have now! Furthermore, this Meridian has no Kandrakar! It was destroyed long before we even got here!" Yuri yelled in anger as he threw his hands up in the air.
"We must… It is our duty towards the Heart of Ice which chose us." Warren said not too happy with the decision he'd just made. "Fine, we're coming. But how are we supposed to travel to your past?" the male added, holding the Heart of Ice at the level of his face so that he could be "face-to-face" with the Oracle.
"Wait a few moments; I shall have you transported here." The Oracle said and disappeared from the Heart of Ice.
Cain grabbed Cedric by the collar and lifted him off the ground.
"You will go straight back to the palace and ask for Commander Selena. You will tell her that you've been sent by us and that you have military experience, nothing less." The male said with a soft growl. After receiving a nod of approval from Cedric, Cain let go of the male's collar and Cedric fell on his butt.
"Also, tell her that we're out of the city. She will know what to do." Warren added looking down to Cedric.
"If we find out you didn't do what we said…" Hades trailed off, tracing a line on his neck with his index finger as in "You're dead meat.". But Cedric didn't get a chance to answer as the boys disappeared before he could say any word or make any gesture at all. Needless to say, he did do what he had been instructed to.
This is actually a rewrite of the original version… Why? Because I liked the plot of the first but all the rest sucked.
Not too sure about the pairings yet. Perhaps a WillxCaleb or WillxPhobos. Not sure yet…
Reviews are most welcome.
