Well, I'm finally back with a new update! And I can assure you, that you will have no idea what's happening as you read this. Many questions shall be answered, but new one's will rise seeing how confusing this story is. But don't worry! I'm sure (and I hope) everything thing will be alright! And BTW, don't forget to review!


Before Jeanette had even woken up, she could sense a change of environment. The smell of a coming storm had disappeared, and was replaced with a fresh one. Almost like...flowers?

The 16 year-old sat up immediately, her glasses already propped on her face.

Where the hell am I, she asked. Looking around, the world had she had once been in, had changed into a meadow. Wildflowers grew in bright vibrant colors. Hardy trees surrounded the area, their lush green leaves swaying in the gentle breeze.

Jeanette glanced down at herself. She was no longer wearing the chunky hiking clothes. A lavender sundress grazed her knees as the wind shifted.

She stood and looked around. In the corner, she could see a small cave. It seemed to hold some sort of importance to her, but why, she had no clue.

Her feet started to drag her over to it.

But what's in it?

Panic set in as she neared the opening. At first, all she could see was darkness. But as her eyes adjusted to the dim light, she saw something sparkle in the back corner of the cave. She walked up to it cautiously. That's when she realized it was her locket. She gently touched her chest. How did it get in here? Wasn't it on me before?

She picked it up carefully and started to fasten it around her neck.

"Well well well,look who's up?"

Jeanette jumped and turned. She backed up in fright as she saw the all too familiar shadow at the entrance of the cave.

"Wh-Who are you?" she demanded timidly. "Where am I?"

"You're in your serenity land," the figure answered. "This is the place you come to whenever you try to find peace of mind."

The 16 year-old stayed where she was, but calmed a bit. Nothing truly bad can happen in my peace of mind. That is if this is actually happening...

"And I-" the figure continued. He stepped forward so Jeanette could take in his appearance. Her jaw dropped. He had tan skin,chocolate brown hair, and thick glasses were perched on his nose. His eyes burned a crystal blue. He was wearing a long black trench coat with pointy collars, a midnight blue shirt, black pants, and shiny black boots. Large pointy black wings protruded from his back.

"Am your Guardian Angel."

"What is going on here?!"she cried.

"Calm down Jeanette-"

"Don't you tell me to calm down!"she shouted. "You have no idea how much I've been through!"

"Jeanette, please!"

"No!"

Thunder boomed outside, and the sky suddenly became dark with heavy clouds.

"Seriously," he exclaimed. "You're going to destroy the one calm place in your life right now! Just calm down,and I will answer all of your questions."

Jeanette forced herself to take a deep breath. Slowly, she relaxed, until all of the clouds went away. "Okay," she sighs. "But you have a lot of explaining to do."

He nodded in agreement. "I know. What's your first question?'

"What's your name?"

He scratched the back of his neck. "Well, for the time being...you know me as Leo."

Jeanette pursed her lips. She knew that this was going to take a while, so she sat down on the floor, and brought her knees to her chest.

"Why do you look just like Simon? And what does 'the time being' mean?"

Leo walked closer to her,a thoughtful expression on his face. "It's kinda hard to explain," he started. "It has to do with being a Guardian Angel. I take the form of the person you feel most protected by, or the person you love. And in the past, I have been other forms. Once, I was Miss Miller. Another time I was Brittany. But I've been this form since you were about ten."

Jeanette pursed her lips. This is all too weird, she thought silently. I'm probably just dreaming or something-

"I know it's hard to believe," he said breaking into her thoughts. Jeanette scowled. "So what? You can read my thoughts? Where's the privacy?"

Leo chuckled quietly which only angered her.

"Jeanette,"he said amused. "I'm your Guardian Angel – I know everything about you. Like how you're favorite song is Enchanted by Taylor Swift, and you keep your diary under the floorboards under your bed and-"

"Why have you been haunting my dreams?" she interrupted him. The question was an obvious one, but it had only just occurred to her to ask. And she really didn't want him to go on.

He cleared his throat, getting back to business. "Right. Well Jeanette, I believe you've noticed some 'problems' down on Earth?"

She scoffed exasperatedly. "I've been running from these 'problems' all day. What the hell are they?! Why are they here?! What's happened to everyone?!"

"Well I tried to warn you about them but you were to stubborn to listen."

"Well dontcha think it'd be a little hard to take some creepy person you see in your dream seriously?" she countered. "And what was that whole 'Get away from Simon' business?"

Leo stared at her with a look of shock displayed on his face. Jeanette stared back more than slightly annoyed. "What?"

"You don't remember what happened before I pulled you here?"

The girl's face contorted as she tried her hardest to recall the past events. She then realized she couldn't remember what had happened before she had arrived there.

"No," she mumbled quietly. "I don't remember."

Leo studied her. He reached his hand out to her, and helped her stand. She tried her best not to bump into one his massive wings.

"Maybe we should go back outside,"he suggested softly.


"So he was trying to make me turn." summed up Jeanette after Leo had described the recent events. She lowered her head. Tears formed in her eyes. Leo lifted her chin with his finger, and looked deeply into her eyes. It comforted Jeanette,which was strange. His eyes were exactly like the person whom she was a fool to trust.

"Why would he do that?"she whispered. Leo bit his lip uneasily.

"Well uh, I'm not sure of his...motive or whatever, but maybe he couldn't help it? Perhaps?"

Jeanette shook her head. She didn't want to talk about it. Yet she still had so many questions.

"My question is,"said Leo staring at her. "Is why am I still in this form?You can't possibly still feel protected by him."

She shrugged. She had no idea. After all, he's the Guardian Angel here. "Maybe I like you in this form," she blurted out. Leo raised a curious eyebrow. "And why is that?"

Because it's like hanging out with Simon. Jeanette sighed helplessly. She knew she wouldn't have to say this out loud, which somewhat relieved her.

Suddenly, everything started shifted, almost like it was flickering. Jeanette stood up alarmed. "Wh-What's happening?"

Leo cursed silently under his breath."You must be waking up."

What? No! I wanna stay here!" she desperately grabbed him by the collar of his shirt. "With you!"

He gripped her elbows. "You can't. You have something very important to you elsewhere."

Jeanette looked deeply into his eyes. "Will I ever see you again?"

He chuckled a bit. "Jeanette, I'm always with you. I'm your guardian Angel. But, yes. I'm sure I will see you again sometime."

She forcefully wrapped her arms around him, eyes shut tight. He returned the hug as the winds started to pick up, whipping Jeanette's brown hair in various directions. She could feel him fading away, into the darkness, leaving her behind. Darkness surrounded her as her own special world vanished.

Then she woke up.
