DISCLAIMER! DO NOT OWN W.I.T.C.H.

The families crowded around the calsules with buestions beaming one after another. Yan Lin and Elyon attempted to answer everyone as they gathered to tell the full tale. Only Lillian stood at the far back analyzing the situation. She listed closly to the gasps and confusions. Soon enough everything went silent and Lillian turned to the Masked man.

"Are you Matt?" she asked making the heads turn.

"What are you saying, Lillian." sai her mother as she tried to act calm.

"But it's similar to the story," said Lillian as she continued to examine him, "The evil whitch Nerissa, four guardian fairies... And then I chose my regents: Sir Huggles, Sir Mathew and Sir Napoleon..."

"Sweety... It was just a story..." her father attempted to calm her down.

"But it is not, my true master- Lillian is correct." As the masked figure transformed Niegel watched for the apperance of the familiar face, "I am Matt..."

The first to react was Mrs Vandom, "YOU KNEW? YOU KNEW ALL ABOUT IT AND YOU DIDN'T STOP THEM?"

"But!.." Lillian attempted to continue.

Before the furious mother could dig into the boy's hoodie Yan Lin steped between them, "STOP! He could not do anything..."

"Um..." Lillian's second attempt turned to dust too.

"But you knew," asked Niegel, "About Taranee? About all of them? Wait. You are part of al this too..."

Lillian snapped, "WHERE IS NAPOLEON!"

"Honestly," complained Casady as she whiped the sweat of her forehead, "First, she brings me back from the dead- where she put me in the first plce," she adds ironicly, "then, she makes me her maid." Continuing to dust the interquet throne, Casady had to maintain the appearnce of work in the castle being done.

"Atleast you get to live longer, darling," Napoleon complaind from his cage that was raised above ground on thin pole, "My life ends on Halloween night! So much for being familiar of the heart of Earth."

"I know I don't have the fate of the Heart of Earth riding on my life, Napoleon, but I'd rather go back to the bliss of afterlife than be here..."

The cat remained silent.

"Well, atleast you get kibbles..."

"I want tuna"

The luxurious double doors opened revealing a spacios room with a bed and a vast amout of medical equipement, the beeping was in sink with the pulse. Slow and Steady. Not far stood a large flower pot with a tree. the rest of the space was empty with sparkiling clean floors.

"CALEB!" exclaimed Aldarn as he ran over to the side of the bed. His childhood friend lay there, as if asleep, "What did Nerissa do to him?"

"I do not know," replied Elyon, "I was being guarded off to my cell as Nerrissa attempted to invite Cleb to her side. Furious Caleb lashed out on her." she sighed, trying to piece the puzzle together, "This wasn't really what Nerrissa expected. Before I knew it I heared Nerrissa shriek. The people who ran into the room said that by the time they got there Caleb was already unconsious..."

"She did this?" continued Aldarn, "To her own son?"

Lillian studied Caleb crefully, "Cornelia is dating the son of that evil woman?"

"What are you on about, Lillian?" asked her mother about to leave the room.

"I saw them: Ice scating, halloween and bunch of other times..."

"It's true, Mrs Hale," said Elyon, "Caleb and Cornelia were an item, that's the reason why Nerrissa placed her as his guard..."

"His guard? There is no one here..." Mrs Hale watched Lillian walk towards the tree almost like a zombie, "Sweetheart?"

"Cornelia?" Lillian strared into the leafy cover, "WAKE UP!"

"Lillian!" Mr Hale rushed over and stared at the same spot as Lillian did, "Cornelia? Honey?" He studied the spot of wood that geatly resembled his daughter's face.

"She cannot hear you," said Yan Lin, "Just like the others"
