AN: "SPOKEN" (TELEAPATHY)[Place Jumps]
Second of the Main stories in my Girls and Guardians Arc. I advise reading that as some character and
places come from it. BTW if anyone figures out where the idea for the band name came from I'd be
quite impressed.
Intro
[Kandrakar]
The fortress of Kandrakar, Center of Infinity. The home to five magic items known as The Aurameres.
The power of The Guardians held inside each one, their power is one of the greatest force in the entire
cosmos. Orube, student of the last person to defend the Aurameres and current protector of the
Aurameres. Since she stopped being a Guardian after the death of the magic user Cedric by the magic
of the book of elements, she had adopted the role of her old teacher. Out all the people in Kandrakar
who keep the Aurameres safe, Orube was the best suited and the worst suited for the task. The
events that would soon follow were not alone her fualt, but the entirety of Kandrakar.
The Council of Kandrakar was meeting and a normal Orube stayed with the Aurameres. Only in the
gravest situation would someone guard them in her place. This was not was not thought to be one
of them. In the main camber of Kandrakar, The Oracle, Endarno the Wise and The Honourably Yan Lin
stood at the end of the room about to address the complete Council except 2. One of these was Orube,
the other a man known as Neva who current location was unknown.
[Heatherfield]
It was morning in Heatherfield, and Will awoke to the sound of a speaking alarm clock. "Wake up Will." The
alarm said ringing loud enough to wake her. Turning over and looking at her clock she was suddenly
annoyed. "It's 5:30 why did you wake me up?" Will asked her clock as it stopped ringing. "Your mum
changed the alarm time on me, I was only doing what she made me do." The alarm replied in a tone like
that a child blaming someone else for something he did. "Did she say why?" Will said turning over to
go back to sleep. "Something about planes, I think." The clock said wondering why he bothered with
ever ringing. "PLANES!!" Will screamed jumping from her bed with alarming speed. "Gotta get ready."
Will said running round the room, looking for clothes and rushing with them to the bathroom. After a
quick shower she got changed into the clothes and still rushing mad herself breakfast.
As she was eating, her mother appeared from her bedroom. "Morning Will, I see you alarm woke you up."
Susan said getting herself a bowl of cereal. "Once I'm ready will head to the airport okay?" she asked
sitting down to eat. "Hmm" Will acknowledged while eating. After she and her mother had finished, Susan
went to get ready, while Will cleaned up, dancing and humming away as she did. "You seem very happy Will,
any reason why?" The fridge asked as Will got herself a can of coke from it. "Yeah Matt gets back today,
we're going to the airport to meet him." Will told the fridge, making someone behind her laugh. "It will
take some time, to get use to you talking to the fridge." Dean said laughing some more at his step-daughter.
"Just cause you can't hear him." Will said before opening the can of coke.
"Are you coming with us Dean?" Will asked her step-father. Sitting down in the front room to wait for her
mum. "No I'm going to plan a really nasty lot of school work for you class on Monday." Dean said laughing
getting himself some bread and jam from the fridge. "Watch how you close me please." The fridge complained
going unheard by Dean. "No really I just figured that you might need some extra room in the car for Matt's
bags." Dean continued as he started to make himself some jam on toast. "O okay." Will said laying back
into the sofa and grabbing the remote for a little TV before she and her mum left. After around 15 minutes
her mother was ready and both of them had gone down to the car. It was around 6 when they left and
Matt's plane was due around 7:30 the drive took about a hour and 15 minutes but it was better to be
early then late.
It was coming up to around 7:10 when another of The Guardians awoke. Cornelia woke up on her own,
her clock wasn't set to go off for at least another 50 minutes, but she wasn't tired any more so there
was no point laying around when she could get ready a little bit earlier. Unlike Will who was going to go
see someone she hadn't seen in a while, Cornelia was going out today to see someone who she had
seen more over the last two weeks then she would have ever imagined a few months back.
Telling their family and friends about their powers had let her relax and now because of it, her and Peter
were a proper couple, it had taken them a year to get their but they had never been more serious. Cornelia
slowly got ready, she had a bath, and a lazy breakfast, and search the entire collection of clothes she had
for something to wear later today. Deciding on what to wear she put the clothes aside, and stuck on some
thing more comfortable for the time being, and went to the living room and turned on the TV to watch until
it was about time for her to go out.
Will and Susan had arrived at the airport around 7:20 and parked the car some where nearby the airport
terminal. They went to the arrivals area to a wait Matt getting home. Matt flight arrived at 7:32 and he
started the process of going through customs. Another 15 minutes and he finally reached the area where
people waited for the arriving travels. "Where are you Will?" Matt asked himself looking around as he
pushed a trolley full of bags along. "MATT" Will scream charging the musican and pulling him into a kiss.
The kiss broke apart and Will blushed at herself for being so bold, she was just so happy to see him again.
"I missed you too." Matt said smiling and hugging his girlfriend.
Susan gave them a minute without interruption before making her presence know again. "Hello Matt." She
said kindly. "Hey Mrs. Collins." Matt replied smiling. "Thanks for giving me a lift today." He said. "No problem,
I don't think Will would have let me hear the end of it if I didn't." Susan said laughing and Will broke the
hug with Matt just to turn and glare at her mother. Going back to the car, the put stuff in to the boot, and
some in the front passanger seat, so Matt and Will could sit in the back seat Will head on Matt's chest,
while Matt hugged his arms round her. On the drive home both fell asleep.
[Midgale]
Midday at Midgale, the members of the band know as 'Amaranth Heavens' were currently in the garage
of Tom's parents house practicing. They weren't the greatest of band, in fact they were OK at most, but
OK is sometimes good enough to start with. Going through one of the songs that Nick had written. A sort
of cross between normal average rock and fantasy rock influences the songs they sung had very little
meaning but it didn't matter to any of them. Well apart from the current audience. As it was a Saturday
and none of The Protectors or the Envoy had anything to do band practice had turned into a sort of hang
out rather then a means to a end. While Angelina, Sarah, Tara and Pao watched. Kate's brother Nick
played guitar, Tom Nick's mate sung seemingly meaningless words, Kate smashed drum in a vaguly rythmic
pattan, and Skyshade 'Jonathan' Darker played the bass. Really they were just hanging around having a
laugh, and a little big of music was played now and then.
Kate and Skyshade both suddenly stopped playing mid song and covered their left and right hand retrospectivly.
The Ring of Silverglass Darkness around Kate's left wrist became incredibly cold, while The Ring of Starbright
Light on Skyshade finger became hot and glowed briefly. No one except them noticed their rings but everyone
noticed the sudden stop. "Hey you okay sis?" Nick said turning to his sister. "Yeah fine, just feel like taking
a break." Kate said. "Sounds like a good idea to me." Skyshade quickly added before Tom or Nick tried to make
them carry on any longer. "Fine fine, I'm going to grab us drinks then, give us hand Nick." Tom said putting
his Mic back on it's stand. Nick pulled his guitar from his neck and laid it on the ground. "Okay be right back
guys." He said walking after Tom who just went into the house.
As soon as they were gone Kate and Skyshade quickly moved over to the other girls, to lower the risk of
anyone over hearing. "Kandrakar's calling." Skyshade said. "What you two can't just leave Nick and Tom
will notice." Tara said logically. "Yeah but only one of us can take you." Skyshade said to them. "I'll take
them, you cover for us, OK?" Kate said holding up her left arm. "Yeah of course." He said to Kate before
kissing her on the cheek. Kate transported the girls away as darkness. Skyshade moved quickly he opened
the garage door, and sat down where the girls had been sitting waiting and making up lies to explain all
five the girls leaving.
[Kandrakar]
The Protectors of Earth arrived in Kandrakar for the first time since they returned to earth after helping
defeat Phobos. Kate's aim was a bit off, instead of arriving in the main hall of Kandrakar, she arrived in
the room that they had used original after their first trip to Kandrakar. "Lets go find The Oracle and find
out what he wants." Sarah said opening the door. "AHH." She screamed as she saw Yan Lin standing
their. The other girls prepared as if a fight was about to start before they caught sight of Yan Lin. "SARAH!
I thought something bad was happening." Angelina said.
"I'm a glad you have arrived, quickly follow me Girls." Yan Lin said leading the girls away. Upon arrival at
the main hall, the girls realized something was off, The Guardians weren't here, why would they have
called them before The Guardians themselves. "Protector's we need your help." Endarno who was standing
in the middle of the hall said. "Something extremly bad has happened, you must go get The Guardians as
we have been unable to get in contact with them. Kate you must transport to Heatherfield and bring the
others back to Kandrakar." Endarno explained without explaining. "Your kidding you call us to be a taxi
service." Sarah said annoyed at the revelation. "Sadly yes you could put it that way, but you are the only
humans, that we could get in contact with, and can travel between worlds." Endarno said. "Now please
get the Guardians it is highly important." He added.
Kate while a bit anger at this used her ring to warp them away to Heatherfield. The appeared in the shadow
of tree in one of Heatherfield park. Luckly no one had seen them arrive. "Alright split up and find them, if
something is stopping Kandrakar contecting them, things must be up in arms." Kate said, and all of them
ran off in different directions, each one going to the home they use to live in when they were still just normal
Astral Drop. Luckly for them, they knew The Guardians had told their families about who they were, thanks
to Skyshade small involement. It wouldn't take that much to ask the families were their daughters were.
