Return to Kandrakar
[The morning after the Guardians arrival on Wyrm]
The Guardians awoke, as rested as they could, sleeping on beds made by wood and leaves. Cornelia had used
her magic to grow a simple cabin for them to use. Morning greeting where given and the girls got ready for their
first day of exploring the world they knew so little about. It was Hay Lin, and Irma who had volunteered to go out
first to search. Turning invisible the girls left through the forest in general direction they thought civilization would
be. Taranee pointed them in that direction due to her powers of telepathy told her their where people that way.
Most of the day was used without anything being found. Around the time when the sun started to set, Hay Lin
spotted something far in the distance. (Guy, I've found something.) She said down their mental link. (What is it.)
Will replied from back at the camp. (It looks like the top of a tower, their could be a city as well but I can't see from
here.) Hay Lin said. (Alright, I'll teletransport us to where you are. We'll check it out together.) Will said, as she
quickly told Taranee to wake Cornelia who had decided to go to sleep after lunch.
Will teletransported herself, Taranee and a still groggy Cornelia away, they appeared what seemed like a dessert.
(Hay Lin, Irma, Where are you guys?") Taranee asked as the other two guardians were no where in sight. "Over
Here." Hay Lin said from behind a sand dune not that far away. The guardians quickly met up and started to decided
what they where actually going to do. "I think we should go invisible and cheek out the city." Irma said, wanting to
get this over and done with so she could go home, she was missing her family. "But we might get caught." Taranee
said trying to be the voice of reason. "We can't just do nothing. Taranee we all turn invisible and walk until we can
see the city better. Then I'll transport us nearby so we don't have to walk all the way." Will said and the girls started
on their way.
[A few hours later.]
(Wow this place is strangely like Meridian. Just lizard people instead.) Irma said leaking her thoughts to her friends.
(What do we do now?) Hay Lin asked. (Yeah all these guys seem like normal people, how are we meant to find
whoever attacked earth.) Taranee said. (We find whoever in charge, lets find that tower Hay Lin saw, it might be a
important building." Will said. It hadn't taken them long to get to the tower, and see it was one of two. Outside side
the first tower was a large metal sign, which none of them could read. (Great just great.) Irma said getting annoyed
about the lack of progress they had made. "CLISKIAN" a strange voice screamed from nearby. The sound of running
was coming the girls direction. (We're invisible we couldn't have been seen.) Taranee said mentally. A small lizard man
was running at them, followed by a group of screaming one. (GET US OUT OF HERE WILL) Cornelia said as the lizard
men got closer. "CLASK KIUS" more screams came from the group of lizard men chasing the first.
The leading lizard man tripped over and was quickly set upon, the group. (Their not after us, let just get out of here
before they are though.) Will said. (We can just leave him) Hay Lin said taking to the skies. (Hay Lin!!) Will shouted
into her mind, but was ignored. Hay Lin called forth a large gust of wind sending the group of lizard men flying backwards,
leaving the now injured one alone on the ground. Landing next to him Hay Lin pulled him into her arms and flew back
in the direction of the others. (Now Will) Hay Lin said, and Will transported them all the way back to the camp in the
forest.
"Hay Lin why did you do that now the lizard guys will know we here." Cornelia said annoyed as she slumped down on
to one of the beds. "I couldn't just watch." she said back putting the lizard guy into one of the other beds. "It's alright,
he might be able to help us when he wakes up." Taranee said. A few minute later the Lizard guy awoke, scared and
expecting to be looked in a cell of a prison. When he saw the guardians he jumped out of the bed . "Klis cey rin" he
asked. "Hay Lin." the air guardian said holding a hand to herself. "er Hay Lin what are you doing?" Taranee asked. "He
asked who we were, so I told him my name." Hay Lin said confusing her friends who had no idea what he had said.
"Cre kis lis ke.... Srislis my name is Srislis" The lizard man spoke and slowly the guardian realized they could all understand
him. "Thank you." he said. "Your welcome but why were you being attacked?" Hay Lin asked.
Srislis made himself comfortable and explained. He was a simple man, a average farmer who had come to the city to
speak out against the new leader. It seemed that the current leader of the country was changing the weather to make
all the people rely on him to bring good weather. Anyone one who spoke out against him though was kill or imprisoned,
he had escaped after a few days. Hay Lin asked for more detail about where the leader was, she explained how
someone from this world attack earth and they were sent here to find out who. Srislis said it would have been their
new leader, and agreed to help the girls if they help get rid of the leader. They gladly accept the help but were slightly
curious about the leader. "So who is this new leader?" Hay Lin asked Srislis. Srislis reply blew the minds. It couldn't
be possible.
[Back on Lasen, just after Pao Chai left using the ring of light.]
"Kate, Kate wake up come on wake up please." Skyshade said shaking her. The other girls were still out cold, but
Skyshade's main concern was Kate's well being. Kate slowly started to come round and, Skyshade was relieved. "What
happened?" Kate asked looking up to Skyshade. "Pao Chai lost control remember." He said pulling Kate up so she
was sitting. "Are the other OK?" Kate asked as she wrapped her arms around herself. "Yeah, the fire only knock you
guys it didn't hurt you." Skyshade explained, and slowly the other started to wake around them. "OK everyone get
your bearing, I'm going to take us back to Kandrakar, soon as I figure out how to without my ring." Skyshade announced.
The four girls composed themselves, as Skyshade started rushing about by the crate he had been using as his work area.
"I can't believed Pao Chai attacked us." Sarah said upset. "She lost control it wasn't her fault." Tara tried to console
Sarah who was quite sad at being attacked by her best friend. "What do we do know." Angelina asked Kate. "I don't
know." She said downhearted. "Smile girls I've got a way out of here, look." Skyshade said holding out a small box that
The Oracle said would not open to it was needed. "but The Oracle?" Tara tried to point out what the oracle had said,
only to stop when Skyshade opened the box. "It our only way back to Kandrakar, making it needed." He said pulling
out the ring of silverglass darkness. He was going to put it on, and transport them away when he had a idea. "Kate,
here." He said passing her the bracelet. "Put it on and get us back to Kandrakar." He ordered, she was about to moan,
but decided not to. Putting the bracelet it on she immediately knew how to use it, as if the ring itself was telling her.
She transported them away as darkness.
[Kandrakar]
People were arriving at the main hall on Kandrakar, quite a few of them and not long between each one. The Guardians
had appeared only minutes ago and a emergency meeting was being held. The news they had given The Oracle disturbed
him greatly, he had not even foreseen anything like what they had just told him. What they were suggesting was impossible,
then again many impossible things seemed to happen around the universe this was just another, a very bad one but
another impossibility none the less.
As The Oracle was about to address the council of Kandrakar, yet another group of people appeared. In the corner of the
room, in one of the shadow. Skyshade and the four astral drops still with him appeared. Kate saw her counterpart, and
could tell by her expression that something was. Will saw Kate and came to the exact same conclusion. "Skyshade where
is the last girl?" The Oracle asked instead of addressing the council. "She stole Skyshade's ring, she could be anywhere
by now. Her powers have taken her over." Kate explained before Skyshade could himself. "This is another bad turn of
events, the guardians also found out something just as distressing." Endarno said to the whole room.
"Phobos is back, somehow even though his body is falling through the infinity of Kandrakar, his consciousness escaped
and has taken over a politician on Wyrm and become the worlds leader." The Oracle said to the entire council. "Combined
with lost of control of one of the astral drops the universe once again is in great peril, we must deal with both of these
problems as quickly as possible." Endarno said. "Dealing with both of these is a great problem. Word has been sent to
Meridian for them to send help in these dark times. Once their help arrives we must move as quickly as possible to defeat
Phobos." The Oracle said. "Oracle what about Pao Chai?" Sarah asked "Until the threat of Phobos is removed, we can not
try and find Pao Chai, she could be on any world and the time it would take to find her we can not waste." Endarno on
The Oracle behalf. Sarah and Tara were holding back tears now, Angelina was angry. Kate on the other hand knew that
she couldn't do anything to change what The Oracle had decided, so in her mind forced herself to worry about the evil
prince first.
[Castle Wyrm]
"INCOMPITANCE, UNACEPTABLE YOU LET THEM GET AWAY." A large humanoid lizard dressed in large blue robes, shouted
at the three kneeling men. "But sire, we couldn't even see them. Let alone stop them from helping the escapee." The middle
kneeling lizard tried to explain. "Excuses are not acceptable, lucky for you the next time they return, their simple invisibility
will not work." Phobos pause as if for dramatic effect. "If you fail to stop them, next time they dare try and attack, I will
drain you of you life force and use it to empower the spell causing the drought in your home town. Do I make myself clear
captain." Phobos said menacingly "Yes Great King" The captain replied retreating backwards out of the room along with
his men.
"My servant you may come out now." Phobos said seemingly politely. "Yes Phobos?" A womens voice replied "Deal with
my appearance, I wish to look like myself again." Phobos said. "Yes Phobos." The women said, and Phobos slowly changed
into his old self. "Good, at least the attack on the guardians home world did not go completely amiss, Follow me." Phobos
said leaving his make shift throne room to retire for the night.
