Basically what Jax was up to starting a little bit before the first episode of Season 3 (Beachside 7) until the beginning of the second episode (Rebel Emma). Not intended for Demma shippers/Daniel lovers, as some shade is thrown at Daniel, but you are still welcome to read it. Keep in mind, this is what I feel Jax is thinking in his head. Enjoy! P.S a bit of cursing, don't sue me.


Jax POV

Rebel's Boot Camp. That's where I was for most of the summer. All because I nearly destroyed the realm. If that wasn't bad enough, I almost let the only girl I love (besides my mother and my sisters) get sucked into nothingness, and no longer exist. This was my last chance, or I'll lose my powers forever. I dreaded the thought, knowing I couldn't survive without my powers. So I've been trying my hardest to graduate from this god-forsaken place so I can go about my life. I've been able to make it this far, and I intend to graduate and keep my powers for good. I sat on my cot in the bunker and began to reflect on everything that recently happened, unable to fall asleep.


It would be easy to blame my father for this. He made me come to Miami, pursue her, and almost destroy her. It was his master plan, after all, to take over the world, both the human and magic one. I guess he assumed this would make me worthy to brag about, as he saw me as a disapointment, so I bet he'll be furious once he hears about this. My poor twin sisters at home, thinking I'm only studying abroad. Who knows what other lies he filled their heads with? But, as much as I wanted to, I couldn't blame just him. I proceeded with it, after seeing her hug Daniel just hours after she broke up with me. I was wounded, still am. I sincerely thought she was over him. Now, I wonder if I was only a rebound.

No, I couldn't have been. She kissed me, after I gave up my powers for her. She did have feelings for me, just not as much as she had for Daniel. I can't believe that she and Maddie fought over him. Really? I failed to see what was so special about him, other than the fact that he's sort of good-looking. He's human, for one, fun to mess with, rides a bike...

Then it hit me. It's probably because he's a good guy. A guy who doesn't break the rules or get in trouble (unless it had anything to do with Mr. Alonso). He plays fair, and, oh yeah, he sings. He writes songs for Emma. My Em (has he ever even called her 'Em'?). He lures her in with his baby blue eyes and his somewhat 'velvet' voice, and she's smitten (My hair, eyes, and smile are way better than his in my opinion). But, he's more stable, and popular, so all the girls at Iridium High have crushes on him (they crushed on me too, until Gigi told everyone that 'I changed girls to my liking').

What he didn't do, was fully support her in using her powers more and helping her let loose; I did. I taught her how to cast spells without talking, I showed her that it was okay to have a little bit more fun with her powers. She needs me. I probably shouldn't of pushed her so hard to help her get my powers back, maybe I wouldn't of lost her. But the more I think about it, it was inevitable. For some reason, she was infatuated with him; he doesn't deserve her, but that doesn't mean I do either. Sometimes I wonder how I ever fell for her.

There's no denying she's one of the most beautiful creatures I'd ever seen, but her personality is so much different from mine; I never went for a "good girl". She likes to play it safe, is afraid to take risks, and is a bit clumsy with spells, but I find that part cute. Let's not forget her obsession with scrapbooking, which I find weird, but also cute. I, on the other hand, like to take risks, ride dirt bikes, live life my own rules, but I'm very skilled with my powers. The way I describe her makes her sound like a complete stick in the mud, which she was, until I freed her. We were almost polar opposites, yet I had strange fascination with her, maybe it was because she was so beautiful (even if she didn't know it), or because she's the most powerful witch in the realm, as I'm attracted to power, or maybe it's because...she reminded me of my mother.

My mother was my rock; she supported me and believed in me when no one else did, and by no one else, I meant my father. She wanted me to be a good wizard, like her, knowing my dad used his powers for evil purposes. When she passed giving birth to the twins, I lost it. I lost faith in myself, and didn't know how to cope. And since my father was my only role model, I followed his footsteps. I practiced my magic, grew an interest in leather jackets and dirt bikes, and using magic to get my way, as my dad does. He was proud, to say the least, until he had to save me from almost getting my powers taken away numerous times by the Council (one being the basketball game). Then, the year of the Fool Moon came, and he assigned me the task of charming the Chosen One, convincing her to combine the light of the Magic Realm with the Last light of the Fool Moon, and then push her in. I, wanting to make him proud, agreed to it. At the time, I had no idea what this plan would result in.

After meeting her, I took pleasure in flirting with her, even though it was strictly part of the plan. I even liked to mess with her and she'd yell and get annoyed while I just laughed. I grew to like her when we ditched her dad's presentation to go to a concert and the movies, and then we kissed, which was exhilarating, and I thought we worked...until I found out it was her clone. I was distraught, to say the least, and refused to give her the clone removal spell, wanting to be with her clone and not the real her. However, after she got rid of the clone, we bonded while being trapped at school due to the storm. I reluctantly told her about my family after she asked, which I rarely talk about. She told me I take after my mother, and that she's seen my good moments. It made me smile, and, in that moment, looking into her eyes, her beautiful, chocolate eyes, she was all I wanted. That's when I fell in love with her. She saw what everyone else failed to see, and I loved her for it. We both leaned in, about to seal our attraction with a kiss, but the door flew open, and I quickly got up to secure it. We were both surprised and weirded out by what almost happened, and tried our best to dismiss it by playing a game of chess. The next thing I remember was being awaken by her dad coming into the office, and offering me a ride home.

With my new feelings surfaced, it came as second nature to protect her from losing her powers. I was thanked with a kiss, and just like that, she was mine. Of course, Daniel had to pick a fight with me over her, clearly envious, and swore to get his girl back. Unfortunately, he succeeded. But that's doesn't make Emma his. She'll always be mine, whether she knows it or not. When she broke up with me, I know part of it was because of Daniel, but another was probably because I kept forcing her to help me get my powers back; she didn't realize I was going insane without them. Maybe she thought I was blaming her, or that I regret losing my powers for her; I don't and never will.

Casting a spell and sending her a rose was the only thing I could do at that time to say I was sorry, for liking her clone more than her, then siding with her clone, then almost destroying her and the realm, and helping at the last minute. I vowed to do better. I wanted to change, for her. Be the good guy that she saw glimpses of. Maybe if she saw that I changed, I could win her back. It will take hard work, since I love fooling around and doing what I want, but I will for her. It felt weird, me wanting to be a better person, all for a girl, but she wasn't just some girl. I finally realized that, and felt a weight lifted off my shoulders when I admitted to myself that I was still in love with her. I want to be her hero.

I then fell asleep, ready to start the transformation into new and improved Jax Novoa tomorrow.


"RISE AND SHINE, WITCHES!" is the sound I woke up to. Agamemnon was his usual bossy self, using a megaphone to enhance his voice and remind us who's in charge. Typical.

"Breakfast is in the dining hall. You have 30 minutes to eat, then you warm up and then start with your SODs. LOOK ALIVE!" We then all departed to the dining hall.

I sat by myself at breakfast, since I didn't really have any friends here. Come to think of it, I didn't really have friends in Miami either, except for Emma (I hope), and Andi and Diego (kinda-sorta) but they probably hate me now. I know Sophie likes me, but I wasn't sure if I consider her a friend or not.

Breakfast was a choice of hot cereal or a slice of toast with jam, and I went with toast. I wasn't feeling all that hungry, and oatmeal tasted like shit to me anyway. I ate it slowly, lost in my thoughts. I thought about my sisters and how I missed them. I even thought about my deceased mother and my lost youngest sister, wishing they were still with me. I also thought about Emma, since it was unavoidable; somehow she just slipped into my mind. I then had one glass of orange juice; we weren't allowed to have seconds.

After breakfast, we warmed up and started the SODs. I had first do laps around the room, then do 5 vision spells, and a strength spell. I was just about finished with my laps when I saw a familiar blonde appear out of nowhere with Lily and Desdemona, and began to talking to Agamemnon. I then recognized her. Maddie?! What is she doing here, and with them? I thought. They spoke in a whisper, and it seems like whatever it was going on was so important that it required immediate attention.

"EVERYONE STOP. BOOT CAMP IS HALTED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. GO BACK TO YOUR ROOMS." They then disappeared, leaving the rest of us standing there, confused. What happened that was so important he stopped Boot Camp? Did it have to with Maddie, or Emma? I hope she's okay I thought. We then all headed to the bunker, and took a well-deserved break from training.


It was only about 15 minutes until Agamemnon came back, with a smoothie I might add.

"Everyone front and center! We're going on a little field trip!" he ordered. "I have a feeling you'll be quite pleased with the destination, Mr. Novoa." he sarcastically added with a devious laugh.

Hearing this made me uneasy, but I tried to dismiss it. I was anxious to get to wherever we were supposed to be going so I can get on with the day. Unfortunately, Agamemnon's sarcasm was on point; We went somewhere I definitely didn't want to be, at least not right now.

Miami. Where almost everyone hates me, and is probably having a great summer, while I'm stuck in this hell hole. GREAT. My facial expression said it all; I was utterly upset. I have a feeling we're also here so Agamemnon can keep an eye on the Chosen One.

"What the matter Mr. Novoa? Didn't want to be at the beach?" Agamemnon cut me off before I could answer. "Too bad! Now, all of you, 10 laps around the beach, and don't worry, I've cloaked you so no humans can see us."

There was no point in arguing with him, so I started to run. I kept a half-determined, half-annoyed look on my face, until someone caught my eye, and I could hardly believe who it was.

Emma Alonso.

I stopped short, anxious to get a better look at her. WOW. She curled her hair, and it suits her face perfectly (I mean I liked her straight hair, but her curly hair does her wonders.) She has the same beautiful eyes, slight tan, slender/curvy figure, unique earrings, and cute cheekbones; all that was missing were her glittery shoes.

It seemed she got a job at the Beachside 7 from the way she was dressed and the tray in her hand, along with Daniel, who appeared to be talking to her. Then she looked up at me. Mesmerized, I smiled at her and waved, forgetting for a second where I was, or that anyone else existed. She smiled back, and then Agamemnon snapped me out of my trance with his megaphone.

"LET'S MOVE CADET NOVOA, DON'T STOP" Holy shit, that scared me! I thought to myself. I really wanted to use the megaphone on him to see if he likes it; he nearly knocked me over and blew my ear drum. "Rebel's Boot Camp is your final chance, unless you want to lose your powers forever?" That woke me up. I need to focus. I can't lose my powers, I can't.

"NO, no!" I pleaded quickly.

"THEN YOU BETTER START RUNNING!" And with that, I kept running. From my peripherals, I could feel Emma's eyes still on me. This made me crack a smile; she's still my Em. Focusing on me, even thought her boyfriend is having a conversation with her. I also felt it when he eyes left me, and saw her running back to serve customers.

I was on my final lap when I saw some girl losing control of a speedboat and crashing face-down in the water. Man, it looked like it hurt. I then went to where the other boot camp initiates were rounded up, and as soon as Agamemnon got there, we teleported back to the gym.


"Some of you were lagging with the laps on the beach," he pointed out, eyeing me, "So you will do more laps in here. The rest of you will either be doing pull-ups on the rings or practicing your spell-casting."

Me, and a couple of others were once again doing laps around the gym, and I hated just about every minute of it. It got worse when someone tripped me by knocking over some Styrofoam thing in the middle of the gym. My patience was running very thin, and I was getting aggravated and stressed out.

"Hey, WATCH IT!" I shouted, but instantly regretted it when I turned around and saw who it was. I huge smile began to spread across my face.

"Emma!" I exclaimed, (did I mentioned that she looks really good in black?) "What are you doing here?" She of all people should not be in Rebel's Boot Camp; she barely does anything wrong.

She got up, equally surprised to see me, since it's been so long. "Jax?" was all she said, but hearing her say my name again was enough for me.

I asked for a miracle, I wonder if this is it.


OK FINALLY FINISHED. This took me a couple of weeks, mostly because I kind of got lazy. I was wondering if I should continue this, but I probably won't, because I have so many other idea I want to write. Please leave a review! :D
