Facing Your Fears

Chapter 14

Sudden pain filled Maddie's body, her head felt groggy and heavy. "Where am I?" She asked herself, she was in a dark room with zero lighting she pressed her fingertips against the floor, she knew she was sitting on something damp and cold. "Stones?" She couldn't move much because a large chain was on her ankle and one around her neck and her body was in immense pain.

"Who's there?" A familiar voice said nervously. Maddie looked up and let out a small moan. "Who's there?" The voice persisted.

Maddie knew she had heard that voice somewhere but couldn't lay her finger on it and her pain only clouded her memories. "A magician." Was the best she could say, she wanted to know who she was talking to first before they became too friendly.

"Oh…I'm one too but they took my wand and my hands are bolted with chains that can't make me do my magic." The voice replied sounding less nervous than before.

"Who are you?" Maddie demanded. She could gather from the sound of this person's voice that it was female.

"My name has no importance." Maddie let out a silent sigh. "My home was ambushed. I have lost my husband and I don't even know where my son is…" The woman broke down in sobs. "I was so blinded by my own happiness that when my brother told me what was happening in the human world I didn't pay attention…I'm a fool…"

"We're in the Magic Realms?" Maddie nearly said hysterically.

"Yes. Why?" The woman demanded through her tears.

"I come from the human world! I ended up here through a fight with my sister, then this woman had this rag doll monster with her and attacked me…I should've called for back up but I was wrapped up in my own anger I didn't think twice about it." Maddie said admitting to herself.

"You remind me of someone…I wish I could remember…" Maddie felt sorry for her companion. She must've been here since the beginning of this mess.

Before Maddie could try and comfort the woman the prison door opened. Maddie slammed her eyes shut. "Get her. Bring her to the boss's chambers!" Maddie felt the chains around her legs loosen up she was about to kick the guard but he grabbed the chain that held onto her neck. He didn't wait for her to get up, he dragged her along the cold, hard floor.

"Who are you?" The woman from the prison screamed. Maddie wanted to reply but the chain around her neck would choke her if she did. She could feel the harsh floor cut into her jeans and arm, she kept the mouth shut from the pain it caused. It reopened all her wounds.

The guards stopped dragging her and shoved her into a room. Maddie expected something sharp and expected the worst. But instead she landed on a soft rug. "You can open your eyes. I know you're not asleep." She opened her eyes and saw Kartik walk near her. She edged backwards only to be pulled forwards. "Magic. Curious thing isn't it? I can master it without doing those stupid casts you and your friends do."

Maddie looked around her captors' quarters; it was just like how Nick's room must be furnished here. Old, middle-aged, antique rugs and king sized poster beds with gold and ruby red sheets. Candles and warm fire were the only lighting in the room. "At least I use mine for good and not for evil." She said.

Kartik chuckled then whacked her across the face with the back of his fist. "Look where fighting for the good side has gotten you, here. In my quarters. Beaten up. You've lost everything. Your sister? Forget her, she doesn't know where you are. Nick? He loves someone else. Who cares about a weakling such as yourself?" He whispered menacingly. He placed his fingertips on her cheek. "Join me and you can become the ranger you truly are."

She flinched at his touch. "You forget one little thing. I know something you don't." She said. Kartik removed his hand and stared at her. "Unchain me and I'll tell you." Curiosity got the better of him. Slowly he unchained her and let her get comfy by the fire. He approached her eyeing her every move.

"Tell me." Maddie looked at her a small smile on her bruised lips.

"Give me a glass of water." Kartik frowned but did as she commanded. "Look into the water. Tell me what you see." Maddie touched the water with her fingertips. Kartik looked into the water, it glowed bright and hypnotised the man. "Harcoma." She whispered. Getting up Maddie backed out of the room Kartik still hypnotised by the glass of water. She raced down the corridors back to the prison chambers.

She opened the doors with a blast of magic. "Come on!" She urged. She blasted the chains on every captive there present. "GO!!" She screamed. Within the second, pixies, tigers, fairies, centaurs, fawns and all magical creatures locked in the prison cells were streaming out of the place.

Maddie went into the last cell, her cell. "Who are you?" She said the moment she reached the doors. "Answer me!"

"What is the change in you child? You have something coming from you…" Maddie hesitated before freeing the woman.

"I am Madison Rocco. The blue mystic ranger." A gasp escaped the woman's lips. "Do you want to escape?"

"Very well. But I need my staff." Maddie nodded and blasted the doors down. The chains came off and the pair left running further down through the corridors. "Why did Nick not come back?" Maddie yelled as they ran. "Udonna why did Nick not tell us he'd never come back?"

"We thought it best not to cause you all grief."

"That is what caused this!"

"I did what was best!"

"I loved him!" Udonna stopped running and stared at the girl. "I loved him!" She repeated quieter.

"They're down here!" A guard was heard coming down the stairs.

"We need to go!" Udonna said. The girls began running until they reached the bottom chamber.

"So the plan is…we go to the Magic Realms, find Maddie, save her then come back?" Xander said as he gripped his axe. Nick nodded.

"That's the plan. Vida's taking care of Chip. Assam and Claire are talking to their power guardians." Nick said as he adjusted his sword. "Take a couple of those small parchments. For Maddie's chains."

Xander took them put quickly placed them back. "You have little faith in her?"

"No it's just that we always end up saving her." Nick said. His thoughts went back to Fleur. He hadn't seen her for a while. He was supposed to be meeting with her for drinks but she cancelled on him saying that something had come up.

"You don't deserve her." Xander said to himself. "Don't be so sure. She's stronger then she looks."

Nick ignored his friend and went towards the Mystic Mirror. He stepped in it then Xander. The Realms felt colder and the stench of death was around the place. They expected to be attacked but instead a large white cat greeted them. "Welcome Rangers." He bowed his head in respect. "Please this way. Miss Madison is waiting." At this they took off their helmets (they had morphed) and followed the cat to a large purple tent.

"Look you need to build an army. Stay around here. Don't leave these grounds. If you must use the forest for cover." They heard their dear friend say. Xander opened the tent and stared as Maddie was giving out orders. Next to her was their old mentor Udonna. She was healing a wound on a troll. A faun was holding up Maddie. She lifted her head and a smile broke out on her face. "Xander!" Xander rushed in and held her hand. Nick entered next and rushed to his mother.

"Nick! My son!" Udonna cried out. Maddie nodded her head and everyone left the tent including Maddie and Xander.

"Wonder what I'm doing? Leading a small army?" Maddie said using Xander as her support. He nodded chuckling. "Well believe it or not I tricked Kartik, then while he was under my spell I freed all of his prisoners, then I freed Udonna. We went further down the corridor to collect out morphers' and weapons only to be followed by the prison guards. I drove them into the chamber -this was after we had taken out our equipment- and Udonna froze them."

"Wow! I knew you could do it! Nick had his doubts but I didn't!" Xander picked her up and swung her around. "It's so good to know you're safe!"

"Xander. How is V?" Xander smiled softly at her.

"She's fine. Chip declared his love for her and the couple are now…a couple." Maddie laughed. "How come you needed a fawn to help you stand up?" Maddie's smile fell into a thin line.

"When they captured me, they didn't tend to my wounds. They chained me up by the neck and the ankle. The one around my ankle crushed it. The fairies managed to heal it but they said it'd be hard to walk. They helped us escape." Maddie said.

"So what happens now?" Xander said.

"I'll come back but then we must return…for battle." Xander pulled Maddie close to him.

"Maddie there's something I need to tell you…" Maddie looked at him. "I…we've been friends for a very long time…well recently that friendship for you has turned into something deeper. Madison Rocco I love you." Maddie looked at him not daring herself to speak. She saw Nick come out from the tent. She saw him stare at her and Xander. She remembered Fleur and him. And she remembered kissing Xander infront of him.

"Does that mean you love me?" Xander said looking at her hopefully after they had broken apart.

"Xander. Give me time. It feels so sudden. And now with this…" Maddie gestured towards to the further lands of the Mystic Realms. "I do care for you." She said firmly. He nodded stroking her face.

"I'll wait." He said.

"Have you got everything you need Madison?" Nick said coldly to her as she came up the slope. Maddie felt a surge of guilt as she remembered the look as he saw her kiss Xander.

"Yea'." She bowed towards the rest of the Magical army. "I shall return."

"ALL HAIL MISTRISS MADISON! EMPRESS OF WATER!" They shouted. Udonna wasn't coming with them. She was too weak to travel. As they vanished back into Briarwood Maddie limped towards to Nick.

"We need to talk." She muttered. "Xander go back to Rootcore! Tell them we've gone to the doctors!" Xander nodded and headed towards the forest.

At the park Maddie sat on a bench while Nick was facing her. "Do you love him?" He suddenly demanded. His voice cut through Maddie like a knife.

"I don't know. It just depends on you." She said looking at him. She didn't realise that Nick was past the point of caring.

"Do what the hell you want! Why should I bother?" Nick shouted angrily, Maddie hadn't seen him this angry since the master had taken over his body.

"And what about Fleur? When we needed you, where were you?" They both knew they weren't talking about Fleur. "When I needed you, where were you?"

Nick kicked a stone across the path. "I did not know what was happening. Believe me. I wanted to come back but what would happen when I had to return?"

"That would've been different." Maddie said. Tears easing down her pale face. "It could've been different." Nick turned to see Maddie standing. His hand reached out for Maddie's face but she turned away. "Now we'll never know." She limped away from him.

"Maddie…" She looked at him he looked away. Unable to continue his sentence Maddie walked away. But the moment she was out of sight he muttered. "I love you."

Sort of a love scene...don't worry they will be together...Don't forget to review, next chapter should be up by Saturday or Friday night.
