AN: Nothing really to say. People may want to make sure they didn't miss a chapter cuz I uploaded 2 together, apart from that enjoy as things get interesting.

Lol I find it funny XV that one of the stories of your I've read you say I should have skipped. To be honest I'm not much of a Corny fan in general, but I like to tried and be fair to all the girl, just to keep them as in character as I can.

The Start of Things

As Hay Lin arrived at the bookshop, Irma jumped from her bath with a shock, while Will jumped out of her seat, sending her breakfast to the floor. Taranee dropped the book she was putting away a book away on a shelf as she worked in a library, and finally Cornelia rolled out of her bed and slammed into the grown.

Each of them had felt it, a sudden scream in their minds. (WHAT GOING ON?) Will asked down there mental link. Cornelia, Irma and Taranee each said down the link that the didn't know but had heard the scream. (Hay Lin?) Irma asked the silence. There was no answer. (HAY LIN ARE YOU THERE?) Will asked.

"Will what is it?" Susan asked concern looking at the mess Will had made and the look of seriousness on her daughters face. Dean responded as well, but by heading for the kitchen to look for something to clean the mess up. He was sure that between his wife and Caleb. What ever was bothering Will would be okay.

"Mum I'm fine, just talking to the others." Will said. (Taranee can you sense where Hay Lin is?) Will asked down the link at the same time she answered her mother. It had taken a few years for each of the girls to do that but it was useful. (Sorry guys I'm here.) Hay Lin voice suddenly said before Taranee could speak what happen. (Hay Hay what happened?) Irma asked concerned. (I tripped and knocked myself out, Elyon says I should be fine though.) Hay Lin reassured her friend.

(Elyon, why are you in Meridian?) Cornelia asked. (Are you okay?) Taranee asked after her. (Yeah I'm okay, and Elyon here on earth, I'm at the book shop with her.) Cornelia gasped and started to throw clothes on as fast as she could. "Mum, me and Caleb need to go." Will said, to her mother grabbing Caleb and leaving so they could start the journey to the bookshop. (What does Elyon want?) Will asked as she and Caleb walked, there was no point in transporting as Taranee would be late due to work, Will knew that.

"Will wants to know why your here?" Hay Lin asked as she cleaned some remains of Chinese food off of her clothes. Luckily on 2 of the containers had opened and gone every where, and luckily Elyon was they to prevent Hay Lin from hurting herself to badly when she tripped. "I'll tell you when the other all get here, it kind of urgent and I don't want to have to repeat myself." Elyon replied sitting down in one of the chair, while Vathek who Hay Lin had neglected to mention stood beside her as a guard.

(She won't tell me until everyone's here.) Hay Lin replied to Will. (Tell her that we are on our way but Taranee won't be able to make it.) Will explained and Hay Lin relayed the message. It wasn't long for everyone to meet at the bookshop. Irma first then Cornelia and the Will and Caleb. The group gather in the basement much lick the day before, just with Elyon in place of Taranee.

"Queen Elyon what is it that you have come to earth so early?" Caleb asked bowing slightly before nodding at Vathek in a friendly nod. "I do not wish to worry all of you, but yesterday I sensed something I never though I would sense again." Elyon started, looking serious. Each of them knew what she was going to say. The only person Elyon could sense magically that she would be talking so serious about was her brother. Phobos.

"Are you sure?" Irma asked, shocked and in truth a little scared at the idea. Each and every time they had face Phobos he had been stronger and smarter. For the first time on Meridian, the time he possessed Endarno, the magical memory left in the breath of time and the magical copy which started the war Matt lost his life in. "No I'm not sure, I sensed him only for a second and then it was gone. At first I thought I had imagined it, but after spending the whole night awake thinking of it I couldn't stop myself from coming here and warning you." Elyon explained.

Each of the girls looked at each other, and then finally at Will as if for guidance on what they should do. It was Caleb who spoke. "I must go see The Oracle." Caleb said quickly heading for the portal on the wall thinking of Kandrakar and putting his hand on the image transporting him to Kandrakar. "Is it me or did he seem angry at the oracle." Irma said leaning her head to the side and looking at the fading image of Kandrakar. "Yep." Will said waiting in silence.

Caleb arrive in Kandrakar and stormed for his destination. "Caleb what is it?" Yan Lin asked as he stormed passed. Caleb said nothing and continued walking. His aim, the breath of time. That which contained the only remain connection of Phobos that he knew existed. Sneaking passed one of the white armor heralds, to gain entrance to the room of magical items. Caleb walked straight up to the breath of time where it hung, and swung his hand out to grab it.

His hand went through it and for a moment Caleb didn't understand until he thought back to his time as a herald for Kandrakar. The room he was in contain every magical item that existed, a incorporable copy, that allow if the original was destroyed would over time turn into the item itself. The fact that only the incorporable copy was here meant one of two things. The breath had been removed from this room, or It had been recently broken and yet to reform.

Both of those did not mean good thing, if broken Phobos may memory may have been released if taken, someone may release him on purpose. The missing magical necklace and what Elyon said she felt lead the Caleb to believe that Elyon was indeed right. Phobos was free and they had no idea where he was.

"Caleb what are you doing in here?" Yan Lin asked when she arrived. She had followed Caleb here and knew that Caleb knew one of the things The Oracle had denied her from telling anyone. "I don't have time for this Yan Lin, could you just open a image to the bookshop." Caleb said walking over. Yan Lin saw no point in arguing and drawing a large circle in the air with her hand a blue circle with the image of the book shop appeared. "Caleb what is it?" Elyon and Will both asked when Caleb appeared. "I don't have time to explain, just come to Kandrakar, all of you." Caleb said more harshly then he meant to.

Will was a little taken a back at being order by Caleb, but she knew that he would be on edge until they knew Phobos was out of the picture. During the last conflict with Phobos, Caleb had been the one to lead the Meridian army against Phobos' army of dark magic creature. He had seen Phobos magic kill too many of his friends for the idea Phobos was alive not to hit him hard. Will knew that it should have hit her hard as well because it was during that battle that Matt had lost his life defending the Meridian castle wall.

Arriving in the main chamber, Caleb and Yan Lin were there waiting for them. "Caleb what is going on? You running around like a mad man." Irma said as she watched Caleb pace up and down. "The Breath of Time is gone." Caleb said simple shocking all of them. "And The Oracle knew, I came here before we when to Meridian yesterday just to check before we to see if it might be Phobos, and The Oracle refused to let me see. Now I know why?" Caleb carried on pacing his voice lined with anger. "Caleb calm down, The Oracle always acts like he knows best." Will said walking over to him and putting a hand on his back.

Caleb stop pacing and looked at Will who just smiled at him, before turning to the door that he thought The Oracle would be coming through. A few seconds later The Oracle walked in. "I ended my meditation as soon as my presents was requested, you have questions for me." The Oracle said knowingly. Caleb moved to advance towards The Oracle but Will slide her hand to his shoulder to stop him and then step forward.

"How long have you know the breath was missing." Will asked. "Since it was taken." The Oracle counter. "How long is that." Was Will second question? "3 Days." Was the reply. "And has Phobos been released?" Was the last question of what a very quick verbal battle that only Will and The Oracle himself understood. "Not Exactly." The Oracle replied and turned to walk away. "And your not going to explain. Come on lets go home with have work to do." Will said understanding The Oracle.

"Wait your going to just except that?" Caleb said confused with a tilted head to look at Will. "The Oracle knows more then any of us, including what might happen if he tells us what we want to know. He believe it is worse then what may happen if we have to figure it out ourself." Will explained why The Oracle was the way he was. "I know that I just don't like it." Caleb admitted. "So whats the plan?" Cornelia asked.

"Easy first we go back to the bookshop. Someone pay Hay Lin for the take away and she goes home to carry on working for the day, but if anyone learns anything they will tell her. Cornelia you'll go see Taranee, explain whats going on, and try and get here out of work, we will need here skills. Caleb and Irma will go back to mine, and protect my family, if Phobos has escaped he may have noticed that my family had magic used on them not long ago and figure out they are my parent. Me and Elyon will go to Meridian and combined our magic to try and scan for Phobos. It was the last place Phobos was detected and he may not have left. If anyone can't carry out their task tell Hay Lin mentally and get her to tell me, it easier if I only have one person telling me stuff while using my magic with Elyon."

Elyon, Vathek and Caleb looked at Will shocked. Last time they had seen Will doing guardian work as important as this, her skill as a planner had been good. Now they were completely different, she didn't even seem to have to think. She just had the plan in her head already and all she had to do was explain it. It was understandable, after 4 years of saving the world and 4 years of having to think her way through things and sticky situation was starting to become the first instinct rather then second nature.
