Chapter 1:

Last time in: Beast of Legend, Book One: Flames of the Phoenix...

"I got to ask.", Will said. "How did you pull this off?"

"Well, when Hay Lin told me that Eric couldn't come here because his parents were going somewhere else and taking Eric with them, I asked Uncle John if Eric could stay here for the Summer?"

"I of course said yes.", John said as he sat in his favorite chair.

"So, for the rest of the Summer, Eric will be staying here.", Angelo said.

"I wanted to call you and tell you, but Angelo told me not to.", Eric said. "He said it would be better as a surprise."

Hay Lin then turned towards Angelo with narrowed eyes. Angelo simply flashed a cheesy smile. Hay Lin soon had a smile on her face.

"This ia all good and all, but I'm ready to play some B-Ball.", Peter said as he got up holding his basket ball.

"I think we should tell them now, guys.", Hay Lin said as she wiped her eyes.

The girls then looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

"What do you have to tell us?", Eric asked.

"What's going on, Irma?", Stephen asked as Irma walked up to him.

"Cornelia.", Peter said. "What's going on?"

"It's a long story.", Cornelia said as she had him sit down.

"Just relax, Peter.", Taranee said.

"Hay Lin?", Eric questioned. "What's going on? What is it you and the girls have to tell us?"

"Something we wanted to tell you guys for a long time, Eric.", Hay Lin said smiling.

"About time.", John said as he sat in his chair, knowing what was going to happen next.

"Take a seat boys, cause this is going to be a long story.", Will said as she, the girls, Matt, and Angelo began to tell them everything.

A week later...

"So has Peter talked to you yet?", Taranee asked Cornelia as they along with the other Guardians, as well as Matt and Angelo sat in the magic bus.

"Not even a text message.", Cornelia said as she checked her cell phone for any messages.

"Has Eric said anything about me?", Hay Lin asked Angelo hoping for the best.

"Sorry, Hay Lin.", Angelo said. "I think he's still trying to take it all in."

"Well, at least Stephen took it all well.", Irma said with a smile. "And he only knew about me being a Guardian before we told him the rest."

"But what about the others?", Matt questioned. "You couldn't tell if they were mad or what!"

"Oh Peter was mad!", Taranee said.

"Yeah! At me for not telling him about you or Cornelia!", Angelo said.

"He barely talks to me at home.", Taranee said. "My parents think we're just mad at each other."

"Eric, on the other hand, wasn't so mad.". Hay Lin said. "Just upset and a bit hurt."

"Maybe they'll be more understanding when they see Kandrakar.", Will said.

"Speaking of Kandrakar, we have to go.", Taranee said.

"Oh yeah!", Angelo said as they stood up. "Almost forgot about that."

"Forgot about what?", Will asked.

"Something Yan Lin did to help us control this new power.", Angelo said.

"So, you're leaving us to bring Peter, Eric, and Stephen to Kandrakar?", Cornelia questioned.

"Sorry.", Taranee said. "But the sooner we gain better control the better."

"We've been doing this for the last few days around this time.", Angelo said. "No need to stop now."

"That's true.", Hay Lin said.

"We'll be back as soon as we can.", Taranee said before she and Angelo headed to Kandrakar through a fold.

"Traitors!", Irma yelled before the fold closed.

"Why are you mad?", Cornelia asked. "Stephen has no problem with all of this."

"And that's because I told him about me a while ago.", Irma bragged proudly. "Which means my relationship is all good!"

Suddenly, Hay Lin got up and left the magic bus looking very down. Will, Matt, and Cornelia saw this and they turned to look at Irma stern look.

"Oops.", Irma said as she ducked into her.

"Oops is right!", Will said. "You know how Hay Lin feels about Eric! And after what happened a week ago, she feels real bad about what happened!"

"And let's not forget, that you avoided Stephan a bit after you told him about who you are.", Matt said.

"Okay, so maybe my relationship isn't as all good as I bragged.", Irma said.

"I suggest that you apologize to Hay Lin when she comes back.", Cornelia said.

"I will! I will!", Irma said. "I promise."

Outside the bus, that was near the park, Hay Lin was walking through the park to calm herself.

"What if Irma's right?", Hay Lin questioned herself as she looked up at the sky. "What if me and Eric aren't meant to be?"

A lone tear ran down her face as she sat on a bench and thought back to when she and the others told him, Peter, and Stephen everything.

Flashback, a week ago.

The girls, Matt, and Angelo had just told Eric, Peter, and Stephen everything about their secret lives. Needless to say, they were shocked when Taranee formed a fireball in front of them as proof. Eric then walked up to Hay Lin and pulled her aside. They then went to the room he would be staying in at the Vanders home. Eric then went and sat down in the chair that was there, while Hay Lin sat on the foot of this bed. At first there was silence as the two didn't know what to say to each other. Then Hay Lin broke the silence.

"Please say something.", Hay Lin pleaded as she held her knees to her chest. "Anything."

"What can I say?", Eric questioned as Hay Lin look at him. "I mean after all we've been through to keep our relationship going, you now tell me that there's a whole part of you that you couldn't trust me with until now. When you need me to do something for you!"

"It's not like that!", Hay Lin said. "I wanted to tell you a long time ago, but I wan't sure how you would react to it all."

"So, what? You thought that I'd freak out and run away from you or something?", Eric snapped. "Give me some credit, Hay Lin!"

"I'm sorry!", Hay Lin cried. "I was just scared of losing you, if I told you about all of this!"

There was silence again as the two sat in the same spots not knowing what to say. In the end, Hay Lin ended up leaving without saying a word. Hay Lin then left with the girls and Matt hoping that Eric wouldn't leave her.

End Flashback

"I'm not going to give up!", Hay Lin said as she got up and headed back to the bus. "I'm not going to lose Eric!"

With smile on her face, Hay Lin made her way back to the magic bus.

Moments earlier Peter, Stephen, and Eric were heading towards the spot where Irma told Stephen where the bus was going to be at.

"I still don't know what to think about all this.", Peter said. "I mean not only did Cornelia keep all this from me, but my own sister too!"

"I know it sucks, Peter, but you really can't be to mad at them.", Stephen said. "Can you?"

"I don't know!", Peter said. "That's why I'm going to this Kandrakar place to find out more about all this!"

"I can't wait to find out more about what Irma does.", Stephen said. "I mean transforming in front of me was cool and all. But now I get to see everything. To be honest, I'm a bit jealous of Angelo and Matt."

"Don't mention Angelo to me!", Peter said. "He knew about all this and didn't tell us squat!"

"Once we get to the bus, you and Taranee can talk about it.", Stephen said. "Right, Eric? Eric?"

Eric wasn't paying attention to them as he walked down the sidewalk. He was busy thinking back to what happened when Hay Lin left his room a week ago.

Flashback, a week ago.

"I'm sorry!", Hay Lin cried. "I was just scared of losing you, if I told you about all of this!"

There was silence again as the two sat in the same spots not knowing what to say. In the end, Hay Lin ended up leaving without saying a word. Hay Lin then left with the girls and Matt hoping that Eric wouldn't leave her. Once she left, Eric let out a sad sigh as he sat in his chair. A few minutes later, Angelo came into the room and sat in another chair.

"By the look on your face, and the look Hay Lin had before she left, I take it things didn't go so well.", Angelo said.

"Why didn't you tell me about all this, man?", Eric questioned.

"Would you of believed me if I did?", Angelo questioned.

"If you had showed a bit of your power, yes.", Eric said.

"I'll give you that.", Angelo said. "But be honest. If the army had captured Hay Lin back them, what would you have done?"

"I would of found a way to save her.", Eric said.

"And got thrown in some prison by the army or worse.", Angelo said. "Hay Lin cares a lot for you, Eric. And you care a lot for her. If you didn't then you wouldn't of came here for the Summer."

Eric couldn't say anything after that. He really cared for Hay Lin. He really did! But right now part of him felt like she didn't trust him for sometime now. Seeing the confused look on Eric's face, Angelo got up and headed for the door.

"I'll see you later.", Angelo said as he opened the door.

He was about to walk out when he stopped halfway out the door.

"Did you know that when I told them that they needed to pick someone that they could trust to get the power of one of the Beast of Legend, Hay Lin quickly chose you after she realised that you may be able to teleport back and forth from Open Hill to Heatherfield.", Angelo said getting Eric's attention.

Angelo then left to room before Eric could say anything so he could think about things.

End Flashback

"Hey, Eric!", Stephen yelled getting his attention.

"Huh?", Eric questioned as he saw Stephen and Peter looking at him. "You guys say something?"

"Man were you out of it.", Peter said with a grin.

"Sorry.", Eric said. "I was just thinking."

"About Hay Lin?", Stephen question.

"Yeah.", Eric said. "I care for her, but I don't know what to think about all of this."

"I just want to see this Kandrakar place.", Stephen said. "It sounds pretty cool!"

"It does sound cool.", Eric said with a small smile.

"Well, guys... we're here.", Peter said as they stood in front of the magic bus. Why is it pink?"

"No clue man.", Eriic said.

Peter was about to knock on the door of the bus when Eric saw Hay Lin walking up towards the bus. It didn't take her long to spot him either.

"Eric.", Hay Lin said softly as she stared at him.

"Hi, Hay Lin.", Eric said softly.

A/N: Well, Stephen took everything pretty well, seeing as Irma had already told him about herself. But Peter and Eric are another story. Eric is more upset and confused than mad. Peter is just plain mad! Not only did his sister spring something like this on him and except him to be okay with it, but his sister too! What's going to happen when they all go to Kandrakar? And how will they react to seeing their girlfriends in their Guardian forms? And then there's Taranee's Legend form! How will Peter react to that?

Please review.
