Note: In my story Genki is 18 and Holly is 19.
Also I spelled Moo the japanese version of "Mu" just because I like that way better LOL!
A New Power Unleashed
"So which way does the magic stone point to Holly?" Genki asked.
The beautiful bright yellow and orange colored sun had come up in the morning sky banishing the white clouds, the searchers has just finished eating breakfast and were getting ready to continue their journey with thier hopes of locating the phoenix.
"It points north" Holly said as the green pendant she always wore around her neck rose up revealing a yellow shadow of a bird.
"We go north chi!" Moochi exclaimed pointing his chubby hand in the direction.
Hare pulled out the map and began scanning the crinkled paper "there should be a town near by'' he told his friends "we should stop there and get supplies".
As they began walking towards the path, to the right; mysterious blue figures hid by the trees not taking their eyes of the courageous seven.
"Are those the famous rebals Captain?" one voice asked.
"Yes" he replied "when the time is right, we will attack and finish them once and for all".
As Genki started walking beside his friends he noticed Holly was a few meters behind the group. Curiously, he stopped heading for her while everyone else continued moving.
"Is something wrong?" he asked reaching her.
Holly paused for a while then gave him a small smile "no I'm fine, just been have having these weird dreams lately".
"What kind of dreams?''
"It's nothing really'' Holly said not wanting to make a big deal out of it. She started walking ahead but Genki grabbed her arm gently pulling her back towards him.
"C'mon" he urged "you can tell me anything, we're friends remember?''
At that statement Holly decided to give in, if she thought these dreams meant something and they were bothering her that much then it would be a good idea to share them with one of her friends, maybe he had an idea of why they were appearing to her only.
"Well," she started to explain explain "I'm standing in an unfamilar village that I've never been to, nor do I recognise, all of a sudden this red aura forms around me causing me to change into something but I don't know what".
''Could it be nightmares from what happend to your village?" Genki said.
''I don't think so" Holly told him "Suezo and I stopped having those months ago, usually if they did reappear we'd have them on the same night".
She froze, the worst considering in her mind, "do you think it could have something to do with the evil forces? Or even...Mu?"
Genki dropped on her idea like a pale of iced water ''no Holly don't ever think that".
"Why shouldn't I?" she said facing him with a very concerned look, her voice barely audibly so the others would not hear "ever since that day my village was taken away from me, nightmares of him did not leave me for so long either. What if this is a sigh? What if he's finds the phoenix before we do and corrupts our world? What if...''
"Don't lose hope Holly" he reminded her ''we've already got Pixie on our side, she was one of the Big Bad Four for crying out loud".
''She's different''.
"How?"
"Guys aren't you coming?!" Tiger shouted realising his companions were far behind the group.
"We can talk about this later" Holly said facing Genki again "maybe I'm overeacting, maybe the dreams don't have anything to do with baddies, their just there because they're there".
''Yeah maybe" Genki said then lowered his voice, speaking to her with a serious tone "but don't think about Mu or any of this allies, I would never let him come anywhere near you...I promise".
Holly looked at him, a little surprised at his words but instantly felt relieved nodding her head.
When the talk was over they both ran ahead to catch up with the others.
After four hours of walking non-stop the group decided to take a break resting under a large oak tree.
As everybody shifted their positons in order to get more comfortable, Holly immediately felt her eyes drop and drifted to sleep.
This time she was not standing in the unfamilair village like she had been before but instead the same spot where her and her friends were relaxing only no one was present but her.
"Uh... guys?!'' she called; unsure if she was really asleep or not ''guys where are you?''
''They're not here Holly" a smooth feminine voice came from behind her.
Holly turned around, a woman who looked twenty-one was standing right behind her on a white stone bench. She had dark brown eyes with long black hair cascading down her back and wore a long strapless red dress.
Holly took a few steps back startled by her pressence.
"W-w-ho are you?" she asked before gathering up the courage to say "how do you know my name?"
The woman smiled "a friend, my name is Vanessa, and I know your name because I have been the one sending you those dreams you've been having for the past couple of weeks".
"Why?"
Vanessa sighed "this might take a lot of explaining Holly, please sit down". She patted the section of the bench beside her.
Holly did not move uncertain if this girl was trying to deceive her or not. She could have fallen asleep and Vanessa, or so she called herself, could have captured her friends and now trying to capture her but something clicked. She wore no baddies crest, her voice sounded truthful, and she ressembled someone who looked like they'd been through much pain in their life as well.
Slowly, Holly approached the bench and took a seat beside Vanessa.
Little did she know that after this moment, her life would never be the same again.
