Guardians' Destiny
It's been four years since the W.I.T.C.H. crew had become Guardians of the Veil. Peace has been fragile, but everything is safe and sound. Phobos, Cedric, Nerissa, and other villains have come and been defeated. Until one day, a Guardian of different sorts arrives in Heatherfield, and changes everything.
Author's Note: So...this is literally my first time writing anything W.I.T.C.H. related, and I apologize in advance if I screw something up or if I mix up names and places. I grew up watching the Animated Series, but I never read the comics, so no comic characters will appear, but they'll be mentioned. Also this will be a Elyon X OC fic because well...she deserves true love after all the crap she's been through. Oh, and this is based in the Animated Series. Why no one thought to make a W.I.T.C.H. crossover with Destiny, I will never know. The player is literally called a Guardian and we have elemental powers! Anyways, I hope you enjoy!
Chapter 1: A New Guardian?
It's been four years since five ordinary kids from Earth became the Guardians of the Veil. They're powers have strengthened, foes have been defeated, and the different worlds are safe. However, a new dark force is coming, and yet, so is a Savior of Light.
We are,
We are,
We are W.I.T.C.H.
We are,
We are… (W.I.T.C.H.)
There is a place where darkness reigns
We've got the power to fight back.
We save the day, united five as one.
We can become more than you know,
The heart will lead the way to what we can control
Water, Fire, Earth, and Air.
Guardians Unite!
We are,
We are,
We are W.I.T.C.H.
We are,
We are... (W.I.T.C.H.)
We are,
We are,
We are W.I.T.C.H
We are,
We are...
(We are, we are, we are)
(We are, we are, we are)
W.I.T.C.H.!
Heatherfield, August, 2008
Five girls were walking down the streets of Heatherfield, heading to school. Unbeknownst to the majority of the population, these five girls were special. They were the Guardians of the Veil. They're names were Will, Irma, Taranee, Cornelia, and Hay Lin. The girls hadn't changed much other then they got older, taller, and mature, something their Guardian forms hinted at when they were younger.
"Ugh, finally! Our final year of High School! Only nine months to go!" cried Irma.
Hay Lin smiled.
"I'm so happy for you guys!"
Cornelia rolled her eyes.
"I'm certainly going to miss showing off my immaculate fashion sense!"
Taranee fiddled with her braid nervously.
"I'm just thankful I was able to pass my math exam last year. I think I might try that for my major…What are you gonna miss, Will?"
Will glanced up.
"Oh, I'm not sure."
Hay Lin stopped in front of Will.
"Hey, now. What's up? You're normally not like this."
Will sighed.
"I'm just wondering what's going to happen to us as Guardians when we all go our separate ways. Only Hay Lin will be in Heatherfield. The rest of us will be at college or somewhere else."
Irma scoffed.
"Please. We'll all stick together. There's no need to worry."
Suddenly, blue sparks began to form in front of them in an alleyway
"A portal!"
Sure enough, a blue portal opened and blond haired girl with two long braids of hair rushed out. It was Elyon, the princess of Meridian.
"Will! Guys! So glad I found you! We got a problem in Meridian!"
Will gasped.
"Elyon! What is it? Phobos, Cedric?"
Irma glanced over.
"Giant mutant worm?"
Elyon shook her head.
"No. This isn't something we've seen before."
This answer shocked the Guardians and they rushed into the portal after Elyon. As they crossed to the other side, they were shocked to find a massive sphere of black and white shadows mixing together violently in the middle of the courtyard of Elyon's castle.
Cornelia wrinkled her nose in disgust.
"Ew, what is that thing?"
"No idea, but it just appeared," Elyon replied. "Other then mixing together like that, it hasn't done much…"
Suddenly, there was loud rumble from inside the sphere as it ruptured revealing multiple entities. There were three small creatures with black shadows floating out of their heads. Their heads had a single white eye, their torsos were all black fading into white legs, and their claws were a bright orange. Behind them was were two more creatures, similar in color, but had a different look to them. Behind them was one massive creature that had a orange shield surrounding it's entire body.
The massive creature rolled loudly as it shot flames from it's body. Everyone screamed and began to run. Will turned to her friends, pulling out the Heart of Kandrakar.
"Guardians Unite!"
The Heart of Kandrakar glowed for just a second, and suddenly went dark.
Will tried again.
"Guardians Unite!"
The Heart didn't glow.
"Um...that's not supposed to happen. Take cover!"
The Guardians dove for cover behind some stone pillars. Cornelia called over to Will.
"Why isn't the Heart working?!"
"I don't know! Whatever these creatures are, they've somehow blocked the Heart's power!"
Suddenly, a scream was heard. Cornelia glanced out of covered to see Elyon cornered by one of the creatures.
"Elyon!"
Suddenly another portal opened, this one black and white. An armored individual fell out and landed gracefully, his cloak billowing behind him.
"Nyte, that is the LAST interdimensional portal we ever go through…."
The creatures turned to look at him.
"Oh...Traveler….so...uh..hi..guys."
The creatures roared at him, charging towards him. The man jumped three times and glowed a bright purple. He stretched out his arms, a purple bow forming. He drew the string back, and fired. A bolt of purple light struck the ground and exploded, trapping the creatures into multiple tethers. Dropping down to the ground, a sword with a purple rock attached to the hilt appeared on his back, and he pulled it, brandishing it in front of him. He swung the blade back, and then forward, spinning violently, chopping each creature's heads off. They let off an unearthly scream and vanished into thin air.
The man placed his sword onto his back, and helped Elyon to her feet.
"You okay?"
Elyon nodded, noticing the metallic tone coming from his mask, disguising his voice. It had three glowing green eyes and a grey mouthpiece.
"Who...who are you?"
"I'm…"
But before he could finish a bright pink light filled the courtyard. There stood Will, Irma, Taranee, Cornelia, and Hay Lin in their Guardian forms.
"Back away from her!"
A voice whispered in the man's ear.
"I don't think we're home anymore, Shadow."
Shadow nodded.
"Agreed. Got a plan for escaping?"
"Um..yes..but you're not gonna like it...you see that portal over there?"
"You're joking, right, Nyte?"
"Nope. Looks like we're going through another interdimensional portal."
Shadow left off a sigh.
"Well, as much as I'd like to stick around, I have a train to catch."
This left Elyon, and the Guardians confused until Shadow charged for the portal.
"See ya!"
He leapt through the portal and dropped a smoke grenade, filling the air surrounding the portal. The Guardians choked on the smoke and moved away from the portal.
"Damn it!" Will cursed. She glanced up at Elyon.
"Sorry for swearing, Elyon."
"It's alright, Will. If I was in your shoes, I would have done the same thing. Looks like the smoke has cleared. Go and find that guy. I'll take care of cleanup around here."
"We'll have to find him later," replied Will. "We got to get to school."
Meanwhile, on Earth, Shadow dropped out of the portal and into an alleyway.
"Where do you think we are, Nyte?"
A black and orange rhombus-shaped being with a purple eye appeared above Shadow's shoulder. This was Nyte. An AI drone made of Light and technology that was called a Ghost.
"Let me call the Tower. Nyte to Tower. Come in, Tower."
Shadow turned to his Ghost.
"Well? Anything?"
"I have nothing," she replied. "No Tower, no emergency frequencies. No Guardian frequencies either."
Suddenly, a newspaper flew into her body.
"Oof! Ooh! I know where we are!"
Shadow pulled off the newspaper and looked at the title of it.
"Heatherfield Herald, huh? That explains why we can't raise the Tower or anyone else. We're in another dimension. An alternate Earth. But that doesn't explain why I have a connection to the Light still…."
"Well, until we know for sure how to get back home you probably shouldn't use your powers. We'll definitely need to set up a base of operations somewhere."
Just then the portal crackled, and Shadow quickly went into the shadows, watching as the Guardians stepped out and closed the portal.
"Man, we're so gonna be late," Will groaned. "We better get going."
A bright pink flash followed and the girls returned to their human forms before heading out of the alleyway.
Shadow pulled off his helmet, revealing his face. Twin antennae stuck out on either side of his head. His head was a metallic grey color with darker grey painted on in a camo like fashion. His optics were a light blue with dark blue centers.
"School, huh? So these girls travel between dimensions….I wonder if I could get information from them that might help us get home. Nyte, can you hack into school records or government records, and make a fake identity for me?"
Nyte let off a laugh.
"Can I hack into school records or government records? Of course I can. I'm a highly advanced AI. The technology here is child's play compared to back home."
Nyte expanded into a glowing orb with her shell breaking into multiple pieces, and to a casual observer she looked like a pufferfish.
"Done. Hold still."
A light washed over Shadow, and he watched in a puddle on the ground as his robotic features changed into human ones. He now had blue eyes, dirty blond hair, and a tanned complexion.
"There. I turned you into a 17 year old human. Not a centuries old Exo with the mind of an 18 year old."
"Hey, now, I resent that! So are these changes permanent or…?"
"It's just a hologram, but it works just the same as a human body. I got you registered for the Sheffield Institute starting first thing tomorrow. Right now we better get you some human clothes. Don't think your armor is quite...stealthy."
Shadow rolled his eyes.
"Yeah, yeah. Hey, what's my human name anyways?"
"Shaun."
Later that day, after countless hours of searching for Shadow, the Guardians went to Kandrakar to talk to Hay Lin's Grandma who was the Oracle in Kandrakar to get answers.
Yan Lin smiled.
"Hay Lin...Guardians...what brings you five here?
"Hey, Grandma..we kind of had an incident in Meridian…"
"Oh? Tell me everything."
Will nodded and began to recap what had happened.
"...And this guy just fell from the sky, and took out these weird monsters like they were nothing! He had summoned this purple bow and arrow, and trapped the monsters in some sort of tether. The purple was swirling dangerously. It reminded me of a black hole almost."
Yan Lin hummed to herself.
"Hmm...this reminds me of a prophecy I heard during my time as a Guardian. We were told a man of Light would be the Sixth Guardian and would wield the power of Void. It's a dark energy that changes people. Only one of a strong mind and body would be able to wield it and not fall into it's Darkness. It seems to me that this man you witnessed is the man from the prophecy."
"So, how does this prophecy end?" Will asked.
"I do not know. The full prophecy has never been found. The only thing I do know is that a great evil will follow the man."
Irma groaned.
"Why is it always "a great evil" in prophecies?"
Meanwhile, in another realm….
A massive winged beast with a three green eyes, two horns sticking out straight from the side of his head rose up from a pool of Darkness.
"I..LIVE!"
