Taranee's House
Taranee woke up the next day and hopped out of bed. She looked over at the clock. She had 40 minutes to get to Hay Lin's house. She walked down the hall and knocked on her daughters door.
"Terra, wake up," Taranee said.
Terra walked from the kitchen to her room. She looked at her mother.
"Mom, I'm right here," she waved.
"Oh, then I'm gonna get dressed," Taranee said.
With Irma, and Johnson
Irma looked to her right at Johnson who was waiting to go to Meridian. She smiled and looked back at the road.
"Can you go faster," Johnson asked.
"I could, but I'm doing 10 over already," Irma said.
Johnson pouted and pressed the button to change the radio station. An electric wave appeared and the radio stations flipped quickly. She moved her finger and it stopped. Johnson shook her arm and looked at her mother.
"You should really learn to control that," Irma said.
Hay Lin's House
Will, Cornelia, Sara, and Nikky stood at the front door of Hay Lin's house. The door finally opened to a sleepy Hay Lin wearing rainbow pajamas.
"Hay Lin, did you forget something," Will asked.
"I over slept," Hay Lin smiled.
She moved aside and let them in. Taranee and Irma pulled up and got out their cars. Hay Lin stood at the door and waited for them to come in. Johnson and Sara ran past her and into the house. Tara looked at Hay Lin, smiled, and walked in. Irma smirked and Hay Lin smiled.
"Always colorful Hay Lin, always colorful," Irma said.
After Hay Lin changed, they all joined together in the living room. Will and Johnson took out their hearts.
"Guardians Unite!"
"Water!"
"Fire!"
"Earth!"
"Air!"
"Quintessence!"
"Alright guardians, to Meridian," Will said.
They folded out of the house and to Meridian. The younger guardians looked around. It was beautiful, full of life.
"Look the guardians," a townsman said.
The streets crowded with towns people watching the guardians fly towards Queen Elyon's castle. The guardians waved at them from the air and continued flying towards the castle.
"Do we know all of those people," Sara asked.
"You may not remember, but they have all seen you before," Cornelia said.
"Hey, we're almost at the castle," Taranee said.
They lowered themselves to the ground and Elyon was standing there.
"I was wondering when the guardians would make an appearance," Elyon said.
"Well, we're here now," Cornelia said.
She hugged Elyon and turned to the younger guardians.
"You remember these five don't you," Cornelia asked.
"Your daughters, my guess," Elyon said.
"They've grown since the last time I saw them," Elyon said.
"Yeah, that's Nikky, Sara, Terra, Yan Lin, and Johnson," Will told her.
"Last time I saw them, they were in diapers," Elyon said.
"Well, now they're in guardian form," Will said.
"Yeah, after the Kandrakar thing, we don't know what will happen," Hay Lin said.
"I heard, something really freaky is going on, and with the council and the Oracle out, we're close to defenseless," Elyon told them.
"What," Will yelled.
"Every world is connected. Like a body. Kandrakar is the heart. If you take the heart of a living being, and mess it up or shut it down completely, what happens," Elyon asked.
"You die," Terra said.
"These worlds won't survive unless we stop whoever is messing up Kandrakar. The Kandrakar may be like another world to us, but it's our connection," Elyon said.
"If our connection is gone, we can't get help from Meridian," Hay Lin said.
"And Meridian cant get help from us," Yan Lin said.
"They want us separated to take over our worlds one by one," Cornelia said.
"Together we stand divided we fall, in mostly if not every battle, Meridian and Earth work as one," Elyon said, "Kandrakar has hidden passages in it. They lead to every world including mine, and yours. With Kandrakar, every world that has a connection to it, is in trouble."
"I gotta hand it to whoever it is," Irma said, "It's a smart plan."
"I think we should pay a visit to Kandrakar and find these passages," Will said.
"The passages are not together, it took me a while to find the Meridian passage," Elyon said.
"Anything else we should know," Cornelia said.
"The only way to open the passages is to use both of your hearts, only the keeper, or keepers of the heart can open the passage," Elyon said.
"Meaning, that they have to take our hearts to open each passage," Taranee said.
"But why attack Kandrakar first, shouldn't they attack us," Irma questioned.
"No," Johnson said, "If they weaken Kandrakar first, they weaken us a little. With us weakened, they can attack us easily and take the heart."
"She's right," Will said.
"It makes sense," Sara said.
"Thanks for the information Elyon," Taranee said.
"No problem, be careful," Elyon said.
"We will," Hay Lin said.
They flew up and continued talking.
"We came here to train, but we have something more important to check out," Will said.
They folded to Kandrakar.
With Caleb
Caleb watched his son in the backyard. He was trying to use his sword. Caleb shook his head and walked outside. Cameron swung the sword around and hit a rock.
"Cameron, give me that sword," Caleb said.
"I'm making progress," Cameron whined.
"Let the master teach," Caleb said.
"Master," Cameron laughed.
"I was part of a rebellion! I know some people who can help teach you, and with their help, and mine, you could work with a sword and a shield in a week tops," Caleb said.
"Alright, where are these teachers," Cameron said.
"First of all go get your little sister," Caleb said, "We have to find someone to get to the them, and I can't leave her here alone."
Cameron nodded and ran upstairs.
At Kandrakar
"This is Kandrakar," Nikky asked.
"Yeah, beautiful isn't it," Yan Lin(GM) said. (the GM stands for grandmother, so you don't get the old one and young one mixed up.)
"Grandma," Hay Lin said, "Do you know where the passage to Earth is?"
"Great grandma," Yan Lin said.
She ran over and hugged her.
"Well, I have no clue where it is, I can't remember," Yan Lin(GM) said.
She embraced her great granddaughters hug and smiled.
"That's her," Sara asked.
"The great air guardian, Yan Lin," Cornelia said.
"I think we better get started on finding that passage, this is a huge place," Taranee said.
"I think we should split up, first one to find it comes and gets the rest," Will said.
"Do we go in two's or something," Nikky said.
"Good idea, Cornelia and Johnson, Irma and Nikky, Taranee and Yan Lin, Hay Lin and Sara, and Terra, you're with me," Will said.
"Why the mix up," Yan Lin(GM) asked.
"Just to be on the safe side, incase you need more power than your own," Will said, "Now lets go."
With Caleb, Teal, and Cameron
"Blunk," Caleb called.
"Who is Blunk," Teal said.
"You'll smell, I mean see," Caleb corrected himself.
"Blunk," Caleb yelled.
"Eww, what's that smell," Cameron asked.
"The stench is, I mean Blunk is close," Caleb corrected again.
Blunk popped up out of a dumpster.
"Best friend Caleb call," Blunk asked.
"What is that," Teal asked.
"That is Blunk," Caleb said.
"Who are strange people," Blunk asked.
"This is my daughter Teal, and my son Cameron," Caleb said.
Blunk rubbed his snotty nose and extended his hand.
"Hi," Blunk smiled.
"No thank you," Cameron and Teal said.
"Can you fold us to Meridian," Caleb asked.
"Sure anything for best friend and daughter and son of best friend," Blunk said.
With Sara and Hay Lin
"How many rooms have we been in," Sara asked.
"Whose counting, 56, 57," Hay Lin said.
"How will we know what it looks like," Sara asked opening another door.
"I think it would probably stand out," Hay Lin said.
"You have no idea do you," Sara smiled.
"No," Hay Lin laughed.
Sara laughed and closed the door.
"You act nothing like your parents," Hay Lin said.
"Is that a good thing or bad," Sara asked.
"Kinda good," Hay Lin said.
"How," Sara asked.
"You have more patience," Hay Lin said.
"I'm kinda glad I'm different from them," Sara said.
"Why," Hay Lin asked.
"I get to stand out," Sara smiled.
With Caleb, Teal, Cameron, and Blunk.
The came out in front of Elyon's castle. Elyon was outside meditating.
"Elyon," Caleb said.
Elyon opened her eyes.
"Caleb, I just got through talking to Cornelia and the others," Elyon said.
"Who is she," Cameron asked.
"You don't remember, this is Queen Elyon, queen of Meridian," Caleb said.
"I just saw Sara, so this must be Teal, and Cameron," Elyon said.
"Yep," Caleb said.
"And Blunk, I smell, I mean see you haven't changed a bit," Elyon said.
"Nope, still dumpster diving, Blunk," he said.
"So what brings you all here," Elyon asked.
"Are Drake and Aldarn around," Caleb asked.
"Yeah, they're lurking around the castle somewhere, check the west wing," Elyon said.
"Thanks," Caleb said.
With Cornelia and Johnson
"So, we found the door to the passage of Meridian," Johnson said.
"But it's not Earth's," Cornelia said.
"At least we found something, not the right thing but something," Johnson said.
"Yeah, I wonder how far away each passage is form another," Cornelia said.
"Doesn't this place have blueprints or something," Johnson asked.
"No, but a map would be nice," Cornelia stated.
Johnson and Cornelia walked down another hall and opened the first door, it lead to another hall. They walked in and went down the hall.
"So, what are you gonna do," Cornelia asked curiously.
"About what," Johnson said peeking in a door.
"Cameron," Cornelia smiled.
"What do you mean," Johnson asked.
"I think you know what I mean," Cornelia said.
"I said I'd think about it," Johnson said.
"You got an answer yet," Cornelia asked.
"Maybe," Johnson said.
"And," Cornelia asked.
"Oooh, look, at the view," Johnson changed the subject.
With Drake, Aldarn, Caleb, Cameron, and Teal.
"So you're son wants to use a sword," Drake said.
"Yeah," Caleb said.
"Is this to impress someone," Aldarn asked.
"I don't think you should know that," Cameron said.
"Aww come on, you know it is," Teal said.
"Whatever, can you teach me or not," Cameron asked.
"Yeah," they said.
"Thank you," Cameron said.
"Ok, first, we gotta get you your own sword," Drake said.
"Seriously," Cameron asked.
"Yeah, here," Caleb said.
"You got me a sword," Cameron asked.
"Well yeah, when you were 1 I got it," Caleb said.
"Alright, follow us," Aldarn said.
With Irma and Nikky
Irma and Nikky had been down 3 halls and had found nothing.
"How much longer do we have to keep going," Nikky asked.
"Until we or someone else finds the passage," Irma said.
"How many halls are in this place," Nikky asked.
"Probably over a thousand," Irma said.
"Can we go back to the room with the pictures," Nikky asked.
"I wanna go back to the room with the boxes with weird labels," Irma said.
Nikky laughed.
"What," Irma asked, "I just want to know what a tefrem is," Irma said.
"An unknown scientific word probably," Nikky said.
"Nevermind, I don't like math," Irma said.
"I said science," Nikky said.
"I know, when you go up a couple of grades, math is gonna be involved," Irma said.
"I'm already failing," Nikky whined.
This time, Irma laughed.
With Cameron and Aldarn
"You're a quick learner kid," Aldarn said.
"Thanks," Cameron said.
"You think you can take on Drake," he asked.
"I don't know," Cameron replied.
"I'm sure you could take him, but for now, he's gonna teach you how to use a shield," Aldarn said.
"Using a shield should be easy," Cameron said.
"Ok, pick it up," Drake said.
Cameron tried to pick up the shield, but he struggled a little.
"Yeah, this might take a while," Drake said.
With Will and Terra
"Do you see anything that might look like it," Will asked.
"No," Terra said.
"Aww man, they take their passages seriously don't they," Will said.
"Well, I hope we find it soon," Terra said.
"Me too," Will said.
Terra looked inside a room. She shook her head and closed the door.
"You see anything," Will asked.
"No," Terra said.
They continued walking
"What is it like to be leader," Terra asked.
"It's not a job that I would've asked for, but it's ok," Will said.
"I think it would be cool," Terra said.
"Well it must be real great being the earth guardian," Will said.
"Yeah, it is," Terra said.
With Taranee and Hay Lin
"I don't see it," Yan Lin said.
"Neither do I," Taranee said.
"Can't you sense it or something," Yan Lin asked.
"No," Taranee said.
"What does it look like," Yan Lin asked.
"Have no clue," Taranee said, "I guess well know when we see it."
"I think I see it," Yan Lin said.
"What, where," Taranee asked.
"If I'm not mistaken, isn't that the earth symbol," Yan Lin asked.
They walked up to the brick white wall.
"Yes, I think we found it," Taranee said.
"We did," Yan Lin exclaimed.
"We did," Taranee cheered.
"Ok, we have to contact the others," she said.
With Cameron, Caleb, Drake, Teal, and Aldarn
"Ok kid, you did good for your first day," Drake said, "Comeback tomorrow after school and well pick up where we left off."
"Ok, thanks," Cameron said.
"No problem," Aldarn said.
"Ok, see you again, and thanks again guys," Caleb said.
"Bye," Drake waved.
They folded back home and said goodbye to Blunk.
"So, what do you think," Caleb asked.
"They're cool," Cameron said.
"So, you wanna battle out back," Caleb asked.
"Sure," Cameron said.
"Can I watch," Teal asked.
"Sure, just don't get to close," Caleb said.
With The Guardians
"So this is the passage, a brick wall," Cornelia said.
"Well, the hearts are the key, so lets see what happens," Will said.
Johnson placed her heart into the open spot of the wall and Will placed hers in front of it. A bright pink light glowed and the other half of the wall moved back and slid behind the remaining part. They walked into a big room and there was a huge, wide, green round passages. It took up the whole end of the hallway.
"That's the passage to earth," Sara asked
"Wow," Hay Lin said.
They looked in amazement.
"I think we should see what's inside," Taranee said.
"Earth's inside," Cornelia said.
"No, I mean where it leads," Taranee said.
"Ok, I'll go in," Irma said.
"Me too," Sara said.
"Ok, but you have to come back or we're going in after you," Cornelia said.
"Aww Corny, I didn't know you cared," Irma said.
"I don't, I was talking to Sara," Cornelia smiled.
"Ready to go," Irma asked.
"Yeah, lets go," Sara said.
Sara and Irma flew in the passage, and ended up in a white place. Up was blue, down was white.
"Are we in the clouds," Sara asked.
"You stay here, I'll look down below us," Irma said.
Irma flew down and looked below the place was familiar.
"Home," Irma said.
She flew back up.
"We're home," Irma said.
"Great, lets tell the others," Sara said.
They flew up and went through the passage. They came back to Kandrakar.
"Home," Irma said.
"Seriously," Johnson said.
"Yeah," Irma said.
"Where you two thinking about going home when you went through," Will asked.
"I was," Sara said.
"Me too," Irma admitted.
"No wonder," Taranee said.
"What do you mean," Sara asked.
"The person is thinking about when going through, is where they end up," Taranee said.
"So if I think of Egypt, I can go through and be there," Sara asked.
"Yes," Cornelia said.
"What a way to vacation," Irma said.
"Yeah, well, lets get out of here and go home," Yan Lin said.
"Ok, we have to grab the hearts," Will said.
Johnson and Will grabbed the hearts and quickly ran back in before the wall closed.
"Ok, everyone, think about Heatherfield," Will said, "Not El Paso, not New Jersey, not Memphis, but Heatherfield ok, Nikky?"
"Hey," Nikky said.
"Do we understand," Will asked.
"Yes," Nikky said.
They went through the passage and home.
