Chapter 1

The Awakening

Tohru Honda woke up in a cold sweat, her eyes wide in fear. It was 11:55 at night. She hadn't been expecting his return. Tears rolled down her cheeks as she realized what the return of Syphos meant.

"I-I can't handle this alone!!" she cried. Suddenly, five balls of light appeared inches above her shoulders, and one above her head. They floated down onto Tohru's head and shoulders.

"There, there," a yellow fairy said patting the area next to him taking a mini handkerchief out of his blue jeans and handed it to Tohru, who dabbed her eyes with it.

"Thank You, Torch," she mumbled Tohru.

"No problem, Tohru," said Torch, "It's all gonna be okay, kid," Tohru handed the handkerchief back to Torch and he pocketed it in the pocket on his yellow polo. He put a hand through his bright yellow hair.

"It's not "gonna all be ok," Torch!!" roared a red fairy, "Syphos is back out again, and he'll kill us, Tohru, and the Sohmas if we're not careful!! SO STOP THE LITTLE MR. BRIGHT SIDE ACT!!" The red fairy had flaming red eyes and hair, he also had on a red shirt and black cargo pants.

"STOP YELLING AT TORCH, WILDFIRE!!!!" screamed a pink fairy named Match who instantly took Torch's side. She wore a pink tank top belly shirt with a short skirt. She also had pink hair and green eyes.

"YOU STOP YELLING AT WILDFIRE, MATCH!!" yelled an orange fairy named Lava, while wearing an orange tank top belly shirt with a long skirt. She had orange hair and brown eyes.

The arguments began like this, causing a large war to break out among the fairies. All except one, the oldest, the white fairy, named Flame. She wore a white robe and had white hair and eyes. She was the leader who had to take care of the feuding guardian fairies of the phoenix. She also got the honor of sitting on the highest seat, Tohru's head. She had watched the battle before her without saying a word. But as the battles became more and more violent, making Tohru even more distraught, she felt that she had to step in.

"Silence," she said quietly, but instantly, there was silence, "Why I never! Never have I seen guardians of the Phoenix act this way! Can't you see that you are making Tohru even more upset?! Disgraceful!" Flame was obviously frazzled.

"Sorry, Flame," the fairies mumbled together.

"And?"

"Sorry, Tohru,"

"For what?" Flame chided.

"For being Smelly But Heads," Match offered while sticking out her tongue in a yuck position.

"For losing my temper," Wildfire said while pouting because he lost to Torch.

"For getting off Topic," Torch said.

"For just making things worse," Lava said in shame.

"I'm fine guys," Tohru said smiling with tears still in her eyes.

"Anyways, it's time to get back on target," Flame said coolly, "We have to seal this vision before things get out of hand,"

"Right!" the fairies plus Tohru chorused.

The fairies sat around Tohru in a circle. They kneeled while Tohru sat cross-legged in the center. Tohru put her hands on her lap, closed her eyes and sang with her enhanced Phoenix voice…

"Flame of the Phoenix,

Lava of hope, (Lava lit up.),

Wildfire of dreams, (Wildfire lit up.),

Match that lights the flame, (Match lit up.),

and Torch which carries it, (Torch lit up.),

seal this future,

stop this fate,

the darkness approaches,

light shall not fall,

the efforts for naught.

The light shall not fail,

nor demons lift the firebird's veil.

Reborn from the ashes am I,

I will not let any man die!

Vision seal! Flame extinguishes shadow!"

Tohru shouted this and rose into the air, a flash of light blinded everything, when the light vanished, and Tohru was collapsed on the floor. The fairies gracefully dropped to the bed on their feet and circled around Tohru.

"Is Tohru okay?" a concerned Torch asked, "That hasn't happened for ages! Was it really sealed?"

"She's fine," Flame said calmly, "It's probably just because she just got her powers back, plus it's been a year. It's all fine. We sealed the vision," no one but Torch heard her add softly, "I hope," Flame quickly brightened to hide her worry, "Anyways," she said, "Let's go home,"

All of them except Torch disappeared in a ball of light and a pop. Torch brushed his hand on Tohru's cheek and said softly, "I hope Flame's hope is right, for us all. Good Luck Tohru, because if the vision wasn't sealed, you're going to need it." Then he disappeared like all the rest, as the clock tolled midnight.
