Ch2: Dreams of Sand

After getting bitched at by Sam for 10 minutes after school, Kyle went home and grabbed an old book from his shelf, "Arabian Nights…"

He started to read for a good 3 hours before passing out. Soon the book began to shine and Kyle soon vanished.

10 hours later.

Kyle jolted awake and looked around, "A dream? But it was so real! And," he checked his right hand, a golden ring with etchings was on his finger.

"It wasn't. But, we'll meet again…"

Little did he know, the book's title changed: 'Zenith and the Secret Rings.'

7:35am

He walked to Danni's house and knocked upon reaching the door. After 5 minutes Danni exited and saw the slightly far off look on his face, "G.B., you okay?" Kyle snapped out of it and nodded, "Yeah. I'm good, just thinking about my dream last night." Even though he knew it wasn't a dream.

Danni noticed his ring and asked, "What's with the ring?" Kyle sighed, "It appeared on my hand this morning and I dunno why." Again, it pained him to lie to her, but it was best she not know yet.

Danni sighed and said, "Okaaay, let's just go. Got your lunch this time?" Kyle nodded and both walked off to school.

Upon arrival, both saw an angry protest between Vegans and Meat Lovers. Both saw their respective leaders and Danni groaned, "Oh come on! This is out of hand already!"

Kyle shrugged and were soon approached by Sam and Tucker. Kyle shook his head disapprovingly while crossing his arms.

Danni pinched the bridge of her nose and sighed, "Really guys?"

Sam growled, "Meat adds too much fat that's not needed!"

Kyle shot back calmly, "But meat is necessary protein needed for growth and besides, exercise is a good way to burn the extra fat and energy off. Trust me, I know. But veggies are important too, and carbs."

"Moderation is key guys. Please don't make us angry and punish you…remember the last protest?" Danni added with a scowl. Sam and Tucker paled as both were bad when angry alone, but together they were a duo of disaster. Danni and Kyle were genius level smart but go low key to avoid attention.

And their minds put together when angry were not to be messed with.

Sam and Tucker rushed off to calm their groups and dispel them while Kyle sighed annoyed.

Mr. Lancer, their history teacher and Kyle's Uncle on his mom's side, approached the two, "Thank you both, I was just about to yell at them but I still have to give them detention."

Kyle pillowed his hands behind his head and smiled, "No prob Uncle Elliot. We were just as annoyed. Oh well, c'mon Danni we gotta get to class."

Elliot added quickly, "Kyle, may I speak with you in private quickly? I'll excuse you both, just to be safe."

Kyle nodded and Elliot looked around and said in a low tone, "Did something happen last night, one of my books changed titles in an instant when I grabbed it this morning."

Kyle paled and sighed, "Was gonna face this eventually. Well, I was pulled into the book last night and in a sense, had a big adventure. It also must have changed history. This ring…you probably guessed who this is linked to."

Elliot sighed and handed a picture of a teenage Arabic woman with long silky black hair that had one bang combed over her right eye. Her uncovered eye was violet and had a slight smile on her face. 'It's her. She must be disguising herself.' "Yep, that's her. No mistaking it. Is she a new student or something?"

Elliot nodded and said, "Ms. Nights has just transferred from Singapore. I want you to show her around. Come along you two."

Danni and Kyle followed Lancer to the principle's office where the girl was waiting patiently. Lancer approached her, "Desiree, I have someone who can show you around town. I think you two know each other." Desiree cocked an eyebrow and Kyle walked in with Danni in tow. Kyle smiled, "Told ya we'd meet again, Des."

Desiree squealed and tackled the boy into a hug. Danni giggled, "Looks like we have a new friend in our group."

After school…

"Master, I have waited so long for you." Desiree smiled as they ate with the others at Nasty Burger. Kyle chuckled, "I'm sorry, Des. And please drop the whole 'Master' thing."

Des nodded and Tucker asked, "How did you two meet anyway?" Kyle paused mid-bite of his burger and once he finished, he sighed, "Um, have you heard of 'The Arabian Nights?'"

Sam and Tucker shook their heads and Kyle paled, "So, it changed for all books and none remembers the old name. Didn't think it'd change THAT much…"

He pulled out the book he got from home and looked at the title, 'Zenith and the Secret Rings.' He sighed and looked at his Z-Ring, one the band were seven different colored rings fused into it and frowned, "Yeah," he looked up at his friends and said, "That was the time of this book before today. But, due to an accident which required my help, thanks to Des. I ended up traveling through the Arabian Nights to stop it from being destroyed. It would've altered the timeline if Erazor had his way…"

He looked to Des, "Smart move to give me his lamp. But, before the final fight…"

Tucker added, "The Genie of the Ring gave her life for Zenith. Thus causing massively negative emotions to flow through him." Kyle nodded, "Three of the rings flew out of Erazor and used my negative emotions to amplify my power enough to fight."

"After the fight…"

Flashback

Zen Spine floated down and changed back into Kyle. Erazor slowly got up and said, "I shall not be defeated! If you defeat me, I will simply return again and again! I am immortal, I cannot be vanquished! Mwahahaha!"

Kyle held out the lamp. Erazor gasped, "That can't be! That's the…" Kyle chuckled.

Desiree handed Kyle an orb, "I want you to hold onto this."

Desiree died in his arms, "To go back to the way you were…"A tear fell onto the orb, changing it into the lamp.

"The Genie of the Lamp is supposed to grant three wishes, am I right?" Kyle asked with determination.

Erazor barked, "I will NEVER grant any wish for the likes of YOU!"

"Hmph!" He sat on the nearby throne, "My first wish: Bring Desiree back to life!" he pointed the lamp and shot a beam of flame at Erazor who stumbled and cried, "My body…my body is…Augh!" he let an wisp of light loose and reforged Desiree's ring back onto Kyle's right hand. He smirked and looked over to his left and smiled when he saw Desiree floating in the air with a smile. He turned to Erazor, "My second wish: Return the Arabian Nights to the way they were, so the world can have it's stories again!"

"Wha?" Another beam and Erazor stumbled and Arabic letters flowed out of the throne room and into the world.

"My…My…" Kyle shouted, "My third wish: Erazor Djinn! You shall live out the rest of time, trapped inside your lamp as you were in days of old!" the final beam hit Erazor and a gust of wind swirled around him, "Desiree! I know you're there! Please stop him!" Kyle sighed lightly and shooked his head slowly, looking at this pathetic begging, "We can start over the two of us! I swear…I swear it. The world is mine! Why can be denied by that filthy brat, WHY?!" Kyle shot back as he opened the lamp, "Because I told you, time and time again!" Erazor flew in and the lid was closed. And before he blew the flame out, "Don't mess with those I care about!" he blew out the flame.

End flashback.

Everyone save for Desiree looked at Kyle in awe. They never knew he possessed such power. But Kyle shook his head, "Then we took his lamp to a fiery abyss that we had visited and dropped it in. Hopefully, no one finds it. Not easy to get there anyway."

Tucker spoke up, "But, what about the Genie's Ring?" Kyle held his right hand up, revealing the golden ring. The others gasped and Desiree blushed, "He is still my master after all these years. I shall stick with him forever." Kyle smiled warmly with a slight blush, "Thank you Desiree. I'm happy you're by my side as well."

Tucker pieced it together, "Aw, G.B. you got a girlfriend. That leaves me, Danni and Sam as the only single people." Kyle glared at Tucker and said, "Liar, I know you and Sam are dating. Too obvious even though you two fight constantly." Sam and Tucker paled and looked at each other while Danni giggled, "Wow, I'm the only one who's single?" Kyle laughed while Tucker and Sam looked away from each other. Desiree giggled with Danni as the day went on.

Soon Kyle and Desiree split from the others and said their goodbyes. He soon felt his phone vibe and picked up the call. "Yello?" "Kyle, I would like you to know I told your parents about Desiree. They have agreed to let her live with you as long as you explain to them."

"Thanks Uncle Elliot. You at my place still?" Elliot responded, "Yes, I'm staying for dinner."

"Cool, see ya then, Uncle." He hung up.

"I heard all of that, let's go." Desiree smirked as she dragged the boy to his place.

Hello! Glad to see me?

As I say like in my bio, I won't spoon feed anymore.

Clockwork is thankful I realized this. You're welcome Master. Anyway, yes, I will include references and clichés, but in interesting ways. Also, some may be wondering, "Why is he focusing on Kyle instead of Danni?" For two reasons: One, Kyle is an OC so he need some background and beginning expansion for a bit. Two, Danni is more difficult because I don't wanna follow canon since I'm already not, and I somehow STILL don't remember much of the episodes and their order. So, certain things may be out of order. Please bear with me, it's called 'Alternate Universe' for a reason.

Omega: Yes, and don't forget me!

Oh yeah, say hello to my familiar, Omega. He's someone who was trapped in my mind.

Omega: Let G.B., the Master of Disaster, take you through this odd AU.

Kinda late for that line, Omega.

Omega: Oh well, had to do it.

Oh! And please leave a review if you want with helpful criticism or just if you like it. Not like one review that made no fucking sense.

Anyway, thanks for reading and it's good to be back!
