Edited: 11/22 ~Added something and fix mistakes~ Also I did not fix anything in Chapter 7, that's why it wasn't updated/edited~

Khloe

"UGH!" Khloe threw her hairbrush down on her bathroom sink. "Nothing is working!"

"Maybe I can help?"

"Mom?" The frown was replaced with a smile at the sight of her mother leaning a shoulder against the door frame. She was almost a splitting image of her mother. Same pure blonde. Same hyacinth eyes. The only thing she really got from her father was her one side dimple smile. "I thought you were helping dad with something at the office."

"And miss Homecoming? Not a chance." Her mother walked over to her daughter. "Now let's get to work."

Khloe missed these moments. Ever since her father became mayor of Heatherfield, her mother and father been too busy to spend much time with their daughter. At first, she felt lonely but as time went on she has gotten used to coming home to an empty house, having dinner by herself and having no one to say good night to.

"So, who were those girls I saw you leave with after the game?" Her mother's comforting voice knocked her back to earth.

"Oh, just some girls I'm working with on an art project."

"You're not working with Hannah?"

"We didn't get to choose our partners." Khloe inwardly laughed at the irony in that statement.

Her mother had a smile on her face as she curled her daughter's hair. "They seem nice."

"Yeah, they are." After a few minutes of silence Khloe asked, "How do you know if you have the right friends?"

"Did something happen between you and Hannah?" Her mom looked at Khloe through the mirror.

"No, no it's just … never mind, forget I asked." Khloe looked away from her mother's worry gaze.

Khloe's mom took a deep breath. "The way you know is when no matter how angry or annoyed you are at each other, they are still there for you when you need them the most and vice versa. True friends will be able to see through your lies and build you up into a better, stronger person."

Khloe lifted her head, meeting her mother's eyes, both smiling. "I love you, mom." She turned and wrapped her arm around her mother's torso.

"I love you too, Khloe."

Wes and Dawn

"Wes! Dawn! Get down here or you're going to be late!" Wes' mother called from downstairs.

"Be right down!" Wes shouted back. She was finishing up her hair as Dawn was slipping on her heels.

"What if we get attacked at Homecoming?" Dawn asked.

"Then we do our best to defeat them," Wes replied, holding the Heart up. "Let's just hope that doesn't happen."

The two made their way downstairs to find Wes' mom and brother, Wyatt, standing by the door.

"Oh my, you two look so beautiful!" Her mom exclaimed.

"Thanks mom," Wes smiled then stuck her tongue out at Wyatt, who just rolled his eyes. "So, did you find anything out about what happened at the school?"

With her mom being one of the lead detectives, she was the main person who they call to solve a case and, in this case, the battle between the Guardians and the man was the current case, but they couldn't know that.

"We think it was one of those team rivalry pranks gone wrong," Her mom pulled her phone out. "Whoever it was is looking up to at least 2 years in jail and that's if their luckily. Now smile."

Wes and Dawn, wide eyed, looked at each other with the same thought, they are so screwed. Trying their best, they smiled for the picture.

CJ

"Why do I have to go?" CJ asked, wiping down a table.

After the whole getting knocked out incident she stayed at the Silver Dragon helping with the customers. It felt like she owned Hay-Lin for giving her the miracle drink that healed her bruises. Now Hay-Lin and Angel were pestering her into going to Homecoming, a social gathering she refused to go to.

"Because if they were to get attacked they would need you," Hay-Lin whispered so the couple at the table next to them wouldn't hear. "And plus, it's Homecoming!" That part she didn't whisper, instead she practically screamed it and now the whole restaurant was giving them weird looks.

"They could easily call me and I don't see why Homecoming is such a big deal." CJ went to the back being followed by the two. "Plus, I don't even have a ticket." Hay-Lin held a ticket up in front of her. "I don't even have a dress."

"I can fix that!" Hay-Lin pulled CJ up to her house, all the while CJ was complaining.

Ingrid

"Why don't you just put it in a bun?" Ingrid looked to the voice coming from her door.

"I think I'm gonna," she said to Lucy, her 12-year-old sister. "Thanks for the suggestion."

"Any time," Lucy smiled, flipping her red hair, sarcastically. "I know how bad you are when it comes to being a girl."

"Ha-ha." Ingrid was putting her hair up as she turned to stick her tongue out. "Get out."

She really did know nothing about being a girl. The most she knew was how to paint her nails and the only reason she knows that is because she has a bad habit of biting them. Not out of boredom or nervousness, like Wes, it's just a habit she developed after her mom died a few years back.

Ingrid took one finally look in the mirror; she had no makeup on, like she preferred, showing off her face full of freckles, she came to love over the years. She really did look like her mother. She smiled, grabbing her phone and made her way to the front door, crossing her finger in hopes to avoid her dad and a photo. However, she wasn't that lucky. Her father stood at the front door with his phone in hand.

"Come on! Picture time!"

"Dad," She whined.

*Homecoming*

Music was thumping. Students, and even teachers, were on the dance floor attempting to dance. The school's miscreants were trying to spike the punch bowl but to no avail; the school's rough and tough gym teacher had his hawk eyes trained on the red liquid. All seemed normal, at least for now.

"Why do the humans do this?" Yama grunted as he and Circa were perched on the rafter of the school's gym.

Circa let a small smile on her face. "It's a yearly tradition."

"It's stupid. Do you see them?"

Circa rolled her eyes. "Yes, the last one just got here. Are you sure it is wise to go forward with this plan? Serilda…"

"Serilda will praise me for what I'm going to do."

Unsure about her partner's plan, Circa had no say so she just followed his lead.

"Why don't you ask her to dance?" Lincoln patted Isaac on the back for encouragement.

Khloe giggled from her spot at Lincoln's arm. "Trust me, she'll happily agree."

"You don't know that." Isaac nervously glanced over at Dawn, who was just about to walk out of the gym with Wes.

"Go before she leaves." Lincoln pushed him in the direction of the girl he has been crushing on since sophomore year.

Isaac finally mustered up enough courage to ask her so he headed in the direction of the hallway where she was.

"I didn't think you would come," Wes said when she and Dawn ran into CJ out in the hallway. The best friends were coming back from the bathroom when they spotted her. However, at first, they did not recognize CJ until she turned around.

"Miss. Lin made me," CJ clarified as she pulled her dress down, obviously annoyed with the thing. "I hate these things."

"Dresses or Homecoming?" Dawn teased.

"Both."

The answer received a laugh from both girls.

"Dawn?"

The said girl yelped at the voice she dreams about calling her name. Dawn froze, not knowing what to say or do.

"It's Dawn, right?" Isaac tried again.

Wes turned her best friend around and pushed her towards him, making her stumble over her heels. Isaac was fast enough to be able to catch her before she made a complete fool out of herself by falling flat on her face. Dawn slowly looked up at him with an awkward smile. Isaac, on the other hand, had the cutest smile on his face due to Dawn's adorable awkwardness.

As Dawn tired talking to her crush, Wes was having an uneasy feeling.

"Are you okay? You just got paler." CJ stabilized Wes by holding on to her shoulders.

"Something isn't right."

With that being said, CJ was on alert. "C'mon you need to sit down."

"You aren't going anywhere!"

Whipping around in a fighting stance, Wes and CJ saw the same hooded man.

Dawn tired getting Isaac to go back to the dance but he insisted on staying and protecting her.

"Aw looky here, we have a protector." The man laughed, nastily.

"Leave him out of this!" Dawn stepped in front of Isaac.

"What the hell do you want?!" CJ said.

"The Heart," The man pointed at Wes, growling.

"You're wasting time, Yama!"

"Ugh, so impatient, Circa."

The new voice popped out from behind Dawn and Isaac. Keeping Isaac behind her, the new water Guardian, pushed him away from the hooded woman so now he was in the center of all three Guardians.

"Let's just get it over with!"

CJ was confused on how familiar the voice sounded. Yama saw this and used it to his advantaged. He swiftly shoved CJ against the locker by her throat. "Fuck. Wes, transform us!"

Isaac was about to question her request, when Yama created a shadowy hole below Wes.

"Wes!" Dawn ran towards her but was too late, for Wes had already fallen through. "What the hell did you do to her?!"

Isaac stopped Dawn from charging at Yama. "What is going on?"

"Your little girlfriend can tell you," Circa strolled towards him. "That is if you survived the world we are sending you to."

The same hole was created below Dawn and Isaac's feet, making it impossible to move. All CJ could do is watch, helplessly, as Dawn slowly began stinking.

"Who are you?" CJ whispered as the hold on her neck tighten.

"What? You don't recognize my voice?" The woman, Circa, sarcastically placed a hand over her heart. "Maybe you'll recognize my face." Circa pulled down her hood as Yama shaped another hole.

CJ gasped as the hold on her neck was gone and the woman's face was revealed. "Charlotte?"

The last thing she saw was the smirk graced upon Charlotte's, or Circa, face.

"Are you sure they came out this way?" Ingrid asked, annoyed.

"Yes," Khloe narrowed her eyes at her. "Something isn't right. They've been gone too long."

Khloe had managed to convince Ingrid to come and help her look for Wes and Dawn. Ingrid didn't want to but deep down she knew something wasn't right so she ended up following her. But little did they know they had a follower.

"Oo blondie got it right."

Khloe and Ingrid snapped their gaze in the direction of the voice. "Who the hell are you?"

"That seems to be a popular question today." The woman grimaced.

"What did you do with Wes and Dawn?" Ingrid hissed.

"Oh, what? You're not concern with the Earth Guardian? What was her name?"

"CJ! Where the hell are they?" Khloe demanded.

"Ah CJ! That's her name." Circa cackled. "I guess you will soon find out what happened to them."

Circa watched as the shadows began trapping the two remaining Guardians.

Yama laughed as he appeared next to her from the shadows. "I love seeing them squirm."

"Khloe!" Lincoln had no hesitation when the black hole started forming under the girls, he darted out of his hiding spot.

"Lincoln! No! Get out of here!" Khloe tried pushing Lincoln away from the quick shadow but the shadow started engulfing him too. Soon the only thing lingering was Yama and Circa standing over the spot.

"Now all we have to do is get the Heart."

A/N: The next few chapters will be written in First Person. I'll make sure to clarify it in each of the chapters.
