Berri: I doesn't own Disney W.i.t.c.h. but you know… Christmas will be here soon… And I tried to be really good this year!

Carina: And please enjoy this chapter, it's really long! Also…

Berri: I apologize but I'm not very good at fight scenes… so it's not that good… but use your imagination and it should be okay…

Chapter Eleven

Fight for freedom

Carina took in the scenery, pulling the arrow of her arm must have taken a little longer than she had originally thought. Carina could feel her dry blood on her arm but that didn't bother her too much. It was gross to look at but she didn't plan on that. Carina knew that there were more important things right now than if she had blood on her arm or not… like taking out Brooklyn and the guards.

"What'd I miss?" Carina asked, Tai who flew past her.

"It's a challenge but it's not too bad but if you want to help, go ahead!" She said, as she directed a flame towards the guards sword. It glowed red hot and he cried in pain, dropping it to the ground.

"Don't mind if I do," Carina smiled, she knew what she wanted to do.

Carina kneeled down and placed both hands on the firm ground, she cleared her mind from everything else except from what she wanted. When she put her mind to it, there was nothing she couldn't do, she was sure of that.

Green swirls danced around her hands, rising up and down from the earth like serpents. The ground around her gently vibrated, her magic was powerful.

The ground where the guards were standing, vibrated as the earth separated creating a giant hole, small rocks and bags fell to the bottom- as well as a huge chunk of guards!

Carina stood up, dusting soil off her knees and hands. 'Maybe I should have cleaned my arm… now it's covered in blood and soil…' Carina thought grossly. 'But it wouldn't be fair on the other Guardians if they're fighting and I'm cleaning myself up,' she thought.

"Wow, good job!" Hannah cried from the sky.

"Thanks! I'm not done though!" Carina yelled back to her kooky friend.

It's true, Carina still had a few ideas.

"Then bring them over here!" Izzy shouted, obviously struggling with her portion of the guards.

"Okay," carina said, rubbing her arm. The blood had died was starting to smell.

"That looks a little nasty," Izzy said, pointing at it disgusted.

"There are more important things," Carina said, bending down like she did previously. This time green swirls of magic formed a checked pattern, as the magic faded, roots appeared. Carina forced a tall tree to bend over, a root wrapped around the tip if the trunk as a clumsy guard charged at Izzy but accidentally on a root the 'rope/roots' flipped up trapping several guards in the net Carina created.

"Good job," Izzy said smiling, Carina gave Izzy a hi-five.

"Let's go help Wanna and Hannah," Carina said. Wanna and Hannah had the difficult job of taking down Brooklyn.

"Will Tai be strong enough to take on the guards?" Carina asked.

"I'll be fine! Take down Brooklyn for me, make sure he can't smirk when your done!" Tai winked.

"Don't worry I'll help!" Ariel said, appearing out of no where.

"K, have fun!" Izzy cried to the two girls.

"Don't worry we will," Tai laughed, throwing a hot fireball at a guards face.

'Glad she's on our side,' Carina thought, happily.

"That's for the guard breaking my ankle," Hannah cried as a long powerful gust of wind immobilized Brooklyn. Moss green vines wrapped up his legs and around his torso, pinning his arms to his body.

"Nice," Wanna said, eyeing Carina, her eyes stared at her bloody arm.

'Yeah, bloody arm,' Carina scolded it.

"I didn't clean it, so what? There are more important things right now," Carina whined.

"It's starting to smell, that's all," Wanna said, looking away. Carina rolled her eyes, 'honestly,' she muttered in her mind.

Wanna threw a glowing energy ball at Brooklyn, who was struggling to get free. He cried in pain as the energy ball whammed into his face.

"Nice," Izzy said. Wanna nodded, "that was for separating us," She nodded.

"Then wham him again! If we were together from the beginning we'd be home drinking hot chocolate right now!" Hannah cried.

"Duh! Why do you think I did that? Of course you weren't meant to get back together…" Brooklyn trailed off.

"Duh! Yourself!" Hannah cried.

"Look it's the Guardians of the Veil!"

Carina looked around, who? Who yelled that?

Just then an angry mob of Meridians holding weapons like swords, bows and spears stormed over. The er… larger guy with the pot belly pointed an accusing finger in their direction.

"Yeah… and?" Ariel said, facing the angry mob, with her blue gloved hands on her hips.

Her lip was cut and blood fell down her chin.

"A…Ariel! We were told you were dead," A man stuttered.

Ariel simply raised an eyebrow as if to say 'and… your point is...?' Even Meridians understood a simple raised eyebrow.

"Where have you been?" A happy woman with a low voice cried happily. 'Ah, they're meeting their princess again…' Carina pick that up.

"Excuse me?" Ariel said.

"Wait, why are you happy to see her? While we've been suffering she's been letting it happen…" An angry male cried form the front. Half the crowd joined his angry argument talking amongst themselves in agreement. Others looked doubtful and confused.

"I repeat myself, excuse me?" Ariel said a big frown on her face. Her arms were now crossed over her chest. The long white bell shaped sleeves were ripped and tattered and had patterns of mud on them.

"You heard me, why don't you just disappear again and let us take care of this world as you obviously can't," Another bellowed. Carina noticed that it only a teenagers dishing those hurtful comments. 'How… how rude,' Carina thought.

Carina saw Ariel's eyes go watery, and her cheeks flushed red. She turned on her heel and ran off as fast at she could.

"Wait, Ariel!" Wanna cried, dashing off after her.

"Where's Brooklyn?" Izzy cried, pointing to the ground where he once stood. Carina's vines had been turned to ashes.

"Oh no! We lost the bad guy!" Hannah said.

"Nah, nonsense," They heard him say.

Wham!

Thud!

Izzy fell to the ground. Brooklyn had whacked her over the head with a club.

"Izzy," Carina bent down and picked her up.

"Face it the odds are against you! Wanna and Ariel are gone and Izzy's knocked out. 3 on about 100, feeling lucky?" He smirked.

"Stop smirking before I rip it off your face," Tai cried, storming over.

"I'd like to see you try," Brooklyn said.

"I will," Tai said, swinging her fist at Brooklyn's jaw, he instantly moved out of the way.

"Don't waste your energy," Hannah said.

"Come on the odds are against us," Tai muttered, "what else can we do?"

"Call re-enforcements!" Carina recognized that voice. It was the first Meridian voice she had heard!

"SEYE!" Carina and Tai turned around. Seye was there, as well as a few dozen others. Carina even recognized some of them! The guy that severed the food, and the guy that was righting by the fire… they were the inn's guests.

"The rebellion," Brooklyn said, through gritted teeth.

"And you can't stop us," Seye said, pulling a sword from out of no where.

"We're sick of suffering while your queen lives it up… I'd spit on your queen if she ever left her fortress!" Seye said, furiously.

"Reb…ell…ion! This… is… so cool!" Hannah squealed.

"Ah, another guardian, I'm only to meet one more then!" Seye smiled, warmly.

A cute boy a few years older than the Guardians, appeared from behind Seye.

"And don't you think that you can steal the Heart either!" He cried angrily at Brooklyn.

"What?" Tai said, stunned.

"Oh, with that, Queenie can spread more horror and pain to the Meridians," Hannah nodded. Where'd she learn that? Carina wanted to ask.

"Didn't I tell you that if you were gone too long… I'd sent the search party out?" Seye said playfully.

'Seye is so great,' Carina thought 'who knows maybe… maybe Meridian isn't so bad… after all with people like Seye and Ariel living here' Carina thought as the Rebellion charged at Brooklyn and his evil drones.

Berri: Yeah? I'm write about the fighting part… oh well, it's not like I've seen an actual fight in Meridian happen before my eyes so it's allowed to suck a little but hey!

Two more Chapters until Story Four. Which is coming along nicely I might ad. Although it is LONG! And a bit slow… but oh well, I'm working on it!

Have fun!
