"Wow, this is so boring," Mauve White sighed. It was a bright and sunny afternoon and Mauve had to watch her little brother while her dad was out working late…again. Bob, her three-year-old brother, was sleeping soundly and Mauve couldn't do anything without waking him up. "Man, at least David is outs-"
"Hey, sis!"
"Son of a- What is it, David?" Mauve asked as she got out to the living room. Her other younger brother, David was standing next to a teen with raven black hair and hazel eyes.
"Mauve! Remerciez un dieu que êtes ici! J'ai dû venire directement ici après…ensuite…" the girl exclaimed before breaking down into tears. (Thank god you are here! I had to come straight here after... after...)
"Uh…David, go make sure that Bobby's asleep. She's a friend," Mauve quickly explained to the confused brother. David nodded and quickly left the room. "Ok, repeat what you just said, Alyss; what happened??" Mauve asked, going over to her.
"I had to come here because…because…those damn monster bastards killed my family before I even got home from our school! They even burnt down the house I grew up in!" Alyss sobbed.
"What?? How do you know it w-"
"Because they left a message saying that I'll be the next to die and they put Guardian in the sentence!" Alyss told her. Mauve slowly nodded and remembered.
Just a few weeks before, Mauve and Alyss and 3 other girls, all from different parts of the world, discovered that they had special powers. Gesine's, one of the girls, uncle had told them that they were the new Guardians. They all possess powers, the ones that most guardians usually have and new ones.
Compassionate, as her Uncle called her, Gesine, who speaks German, had the power over Fire, Psychic and Dark, while calm Ekanta, a girl from India, controls Light and Healing. Imaginative Sakura, food-craving Japanese girl, enjoyed her power over Earth and Electric. Jokester Alyss, all the way from France, had come to term to her powers over Air, Water, and Ice. Drama queen American girl, Mauve, holds the power of the Heart of Candracar, and has a copy of everyone else's abilities more or less.
"Alyss, are you positive that they're dead??" Mauve asked.
"Y-yeah…I had to go to their funeral so I couldn't come straight here after finding out…" Alyss explained. "I literally flew straight h-"
"YOU USED YOUR POWERS????" Mauve squeaked.
"It was an emergency and between all those languages we were taking, I only understood German and English the best and like hell I'm going to Blondie, of all people to talk about this…plus her uncle would get after me since he's the one who's like: You're the new Guardians, now bye! Just…just no for those two…" Alyss gave the reason why once more.
"Oh…right…Alyss and Gesine both hate each other with a passion…freaking rivalry with these two," Mauve thought as she remembered what happened when the two first met: fight in the classroom that nearly got them expelled. "Just be glad that Gesine's Uncle was the teacher, instead of someone else who wouldn't give a second thought to suspending you two."
"I think if it was someone else, I think it would've been just me because Gesine's uncle is, or at least was, the headmaster of that school…"
"Mauve, what are you guys talking about?" David asked, carrying Bob into the room.
"Uh, David, this is my friend Alyss; she'll be staying with us for a few days…"
"What language you guys were speaking?" Bob asked, rubbing the sleep from his eyes.
"Alyss Legard à votre service!" Alyss said, taking a bow to them. (Alyss Legard, at your service!)
"She's one of the roommates I had back at that first school," Mauve explained.
"The one where you got kicked out?" David teased.
"Il était dû arrêté au fait qu'il était tard sur payer les factures correctes, et à un groupe de l'autre substance…"
"…what?" the White kids asked. (A/N: Not trying to be racist here, people!)
Alyss sighed as she said slowly in English, "School shut down because money problem." Alyss was good at understanding English; it was just speaking it she was having major problems on.
"No school, no school!" Bob giggled.
"Yes. No school. School no start in France yet. I stay here for now?" Alyss asked.
"Yay!" Bob cheered as David and Mauve looked a bit skeptical.
"I'm going to call my parents and let them know that you're here, ok?" Mauve said, as David placed the younger brother on Alyss' lap.
"Ok!" Alyss nodded as Bob was placed in her lap.
David pulled Mauve out of the room and asked, "Are you crazy?? You only know her for a few days or at least a week before coming back here? What if she's a spy!"
"She's not a spy…at least I don't think so, and from what I can understand, her story's does have a few things left out…" Mauve muttered.
"How about you try calling her parents and ask them about her?" David asked.
"David, I'm afraid of what she told me was true…if what she says is true then…let's just call Mom and Dad and I'll try to tell them about it. I think you're too young to know about this…" Mauve stated before walking towards the phone in the bedroom.
