Will, Irma, Taranee, Cornelia, and Haylin were walking to school until they saw Victor, Adam, Lance, and Rodger waiting for them.
"What are they doing there?" asked Will.
"Apparently waiting for us." Said Haylin.
"You okay?" Taranee asked Will.
"It's Victor." Said Will.
"What about him?" asked Cornelia.
"I haven't felt this way about someone since Matt." Said Will.
"But didn't you use the Heart of Candracar to wipe his memory of everything magical he's seen after you two broke up?" asked Haylin.
"That and his first year of preschool…it was my first memory wipe!" said Will.
"Well you'd better pull yourself together because here they come." Said Cornelia.
"How do I look?" asked Will.
"Like your having an episode." Said Irma.
"Why does this always happen to me?" asked Will.
"Hey girls." Said Victor.
Will gave a small jump.
"You guys can be real quiet when you want to be aren't you?" asked Will.
Victor simply shrugged.
"I got a phone call form John yesterday. He said that from now on we should all practice our powers together in Meridian for some reason." Said Victor.
"Who's John?" asked Taranee.
"John's the guy who was a Warrior when he was our age. He said that he got the Golden Arrowhead from Mrs. Lin when he came over, I think he mentioned you Haylin." Said Adam.
"Wait a minute, you mean that old guy who was flirting with my grandma?" asked Haylin.
"He was flirting with her? OUR John?" asked Oscar.
"I thought he was too old to do such a thing." Said Adam.
"Guess you're never too old to flirt." Said Rodger.
Both the boys and the girls gave a group shudder.
"Thanks for the mental image." Said Irma.
"You know, you did a pretty good job patching me up yesterday…" said Rodger.
"Yeah, even though mom freaked when she saw your arm." Said Adam.
Ignoring Adam, Rodger continued to turn his attention towards Irma.
"You ever had some type of medical training before?" asked Rodger.
"Well my mom used to work in a hospital for a short time, that's probably where she picked it up to teach me, in case anything ever happens to Chris." Said Irma.
"Hey ladies!" shouted a voice.
Irma put a hand on her forehead.
"Oh no. Not him. Not now!" said Irma.
That's right ladies and gentlemen, the voice belonged to none other than…Martin.
Martin ran over to Irma with a bunch of flowers she was allergic to.
"What do you want Martin?" asked Irma.
"Good morning to you too Hot Lips." Said Martin.
Irma grabbed Martin by the collar threateningly.
"I told you never to call me that!" shouted Irma.
"Um…should I leave you two alone or something?" asked Rodger.
Even though Rodger tried to hide there was a bit of fear in his voice, fear that Irma might already be taken.
Irma quickly pushed Martin roughly to the ground.
"No! We're not anything like that I swear!" said Irma.
Martin continuously looked back and forth between Rodger and Irma.
He got up and dusted himself off.
"Irma, do you mind if I have a talk with Mr. Attitude here? It's kind of important." Said Martin.
Not waiting for an answer Martin dragged Rodger by the arm away from the groups.
"What is it?" demanded Rodger.
"Listen you! Irma is mine! Not yours!" said Martin.
"Wait…what?" asked Rodger.
"So you stay away from my woman!" said Martin.
"What are you talking about you sad little man?" asked Rodger.
"I'm watching you!" said Martin.
Martin seemed to storm off after that leaving a very confused Rodger.
"WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED?" shouted Rodger.
TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
Meanwhile in Meridian…
The Ancient One come out from behind the waterfall sensing an intruder.
"Who is there?" asked the Ancient One.
There was a horrible screeching sound so loud that she had to cover her ears.
When she opened her eyes she was trapped in some type of force field. A bat like woman fell from the ceiling and landed in front of her.
"Don't worry, my force field only lasts an hour. That should give me just enough time get the power for my master." Said the woman.
She smiled as the Ancient One tried futilely to get out of the force field. She went behind the waterfall where she found something a bit of a prison.
"So this is where Prince Phobos is being held…"
She searched the prison for a bit until she found what she was looking for. In a cage with energy streams for bars was Phobos and what looked like a snake that was extremely unhealthy... she was wondering if she should just put the poor creature out of its misery. But where would the fun be in that?
Phobos himself was sitting on the floor with his face hidden in his knees out of boredom.
"So this is the terrible Prince Phobos, Ha! I expected more, you look so pitiful it's no wonder you ended up here."
Phobos looked up from his knees and saw the bat woman.
"My name is Yuk and my master has sent me to retrieve your power." Said Yuk.
Yuk took out her sword and sunk the blade into the ground.
The snake creature, who was once called Lord Cedric, looked at Yuk with a cocked head.
Yuk started to chant some words that were completely incomprehensible.
A white clear stream of magic came out of the handle of the sword and connected with Phobos.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Phobos screamed in pain as he felt his very magic being drained from him. Soon a large crystal appeared above the sword's handle. Yuk grabbed the crystal and grinned at Phobos, he now looked older than Mrs. Lin.
"What have you done to me?" asked Phobos.
Phobos sounded as if he was going to keel over any second.
"I have stolen all of your magic. Although I must admit, I did not expect for you to age this much because of it. But I have what I came for so for now I bid you farewell Prince Phobos." Said Yuk.
Cedric started to make little noises to her to get her attention.
"What? You want to come? Very well, my master could always use more minions." Said Yuk.
TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
After a long day at school Victor, Adam, Lance, Oscar, and Rodger came home. Lance seemed to be depressed though, he was moping around all day.
Lance went to his room and closed the door behind him.
"What's bugging him?" asked Rodger.
"Maybe I should go talk to him." Said Victor.
"Not so fast Victor, according to my chart it's Adam who has to comfort Lance." Said Oscar.
Victor, Adam, and Rodger groaned.
"Not the chart again!" said Rodger.
"Man, when are you just going to admit that making that stupid chart was a bad idea?" asked Adam.
"But if it makes you feel so much better I'll let Adam go in instead of me." Said Victor.
Adam looked at Victor questionably.
"Go on! Get it over with!" said Victor.
Adam took a deep breath before walking over to Lance's room.
Adam knocked on Lance's door.
"Hey bro, can I come in?" asked Adam.
"Sure." Said Lance.
Adam walked in to see Lance sitting depressed on his bed. Adam walked over and sat next to his brother.
"What's wrong Lance?" asked Adam.
"Sigh. Haylin." Said Lance.
"What about her? I mean it's obvious you like her, so what's the problem?" asked Adam.
"I guess I just feel like I'm setting myself up for another shot down." Said Lance.
"What do you mean?" asked Adam.
"You know Adam, you may fine this a little hard to believe but I've tried to ask out girls before." Said Lance.
Adam raised an eyebrow.
"Really? I thought you would've been too chicken." Said Adam.
Lance took a moment to glare at his brother before continuing.
"Yes Adam, I've asked girls out before. Girls who I actually thought I felt something with! But I'm the nice guy, no girl ever wants to hook up with the nice guy." Said Lance.
"Says who?" demanded Adam.
If there was one thing Adam couldn't stand it was when people would put themselves down.
"Says my experience Adam! With me here is how it usually goes, 1.) they either just want to 'stay friends' because they couldn't see themselves dating someone like me, or 2.) They end up dating some stupid jerk of bully who causes other people's pain!" said Lance.
"Oh come on Lance, Haylin isn't like that!" said Adam.
"Thanks for trying Adam. But the truth of the matter is I'm the nice guy, the nice guy never gets the girl. Whoever said 'Nice guys finish last' knew what they were talking about. Now if you don't mind bro, I'd like to get some sleep." Said Lance.
"Sure thing bro…but try to cheer up in the meantime huh?" asked Adam.
Lance simply nodded his head and let Adam out of his room.
