A/N: This is it! The reason why I wrote this in the first place. Thanks for sticking with me!
Also, I'm so sorry I'm so random in updating the chapters. Sometimes a chapter flows freely but a lot of times it gets stuck in a very, very, uncharted road. So I had to pull them out of there so they can establish organization.
I don't own the Pitch Perfect characters
They travelled through time, space and light. Beca thought the journey would take up a long time. But it was, surprisingly, a short trip. They were at the room of their captivity this second and the next; she was standing in one of the most beautiful meadows she's ever seen. This was my dream. The dream where she spent a lifetime trying to crawl her way into her mother's arms. And here she is, standing on the ground where her mother actually exists.
Am I ready to meet you? Am I ready to spend my life with you? Am I ever going to accept that you are my mother? Am I ever going to realize and truly understand that I am not entirely human? Beca asked herself. She found that she can't let go of Jesse's hand as her eyes wandered around the place they were in.
"Where are we?"
"We are at the central meadow of Celest. A place of meditation and relaxation for the Celestians. Lady Scarlet—I mean your mother frequents here."
"Why did we arrive here? Aren't we supposed to be in a room or something?"
Jesse frowned. He never actually travelled through the orb before as he was banished before he was able to use it. He wasn't certainly fixated on the meadow they are standing on at the moment. But, he remembered. He was fixated on his key…this girl beside him who is right now trembling slightly at the awe and nervousness this place is bringing her.
"Ahm, have you ever seen this place Beca?" Beca looked at him with widened eyes."How did you know?"
"Well," Jesse cleared his throat and answered carefully, "Before we travelled, I was worried about you so my thoughts were with you the whole time. The orb as I understand it senses what its connector's desires are and brings them to where they want. It may seem that because my thoughts were with you, the orb might have sensed that you wanted to go to this meadow."
"I—it was in one of my dreams. I dreamt that I was crawling here as a baby from my father to my mother. But… but I never got too close to her. I kept crawling but the path just wasn't ending. Till I woke up to reality. When you said we were going here, this place was the only thing I was thinking off. How I can't go near my mom."
"Are you…are you afraid she won't accept you?"
"I don't know. All I know and hear is my heart beating faster and louder than I have ever experienced," Beca faced Jesse, "don't leave me Jesse please."
Jesse tightened his hold on Beca. "I won't. I promise. Let's go?" he asked. Beca nodded her head and slowly, they walked towards the center of Celest where the great halls of the Guardians of the High Order were situated.
Beca saw that Celest was more than the meadow. It had the combination of Scientific, Industrial, Environmental and Transcendental (for lack of better word) architecture. There were giant towers, thunderous stone structures, waterworlds that are massive in length where people could actually just come and go, and a whole habitat entirely made of light. The meadow where they came from was made of several forests with small houses that keep the different Celestians. The whole world was made of different colors and creatures, both a wonder and a fright to Beca.
Jesse explained that each world that a Celestian discovers is replicated in a concentrated way here in Celest. Each Celestian has their own house, made for the specific creatures' natural habitat. It's governed by the Guardian of Habitat, a male being of great size and length with huge, flowing green robes. It had green eyes too. They both saw him as he wandered through one part of the meadow, touching some trees.
As it is, Beca saw different creatures, creatures with animal like form, machine like form, wood form, cloud form and robes that float on their own to which if Jesse hadn't pointed, Beca wouldn't have noticed. They are dressed in different colored robes, every color imaginable and unimaginable to what Beca's limited knowledge possesses. But the feel, the feel of everything struck each string in her heart with a strong familiarity.
"You said there are only 5 humans here right Jesse?"
"Yes."
"Then why am I looking at so many humans with different colored eyes?"
"Oh, that's because of all the being Celest have discovered, humans are the favorite. Humans have the form that is perfect and balanced for everything that we do. So most of the Celestians assume the human form. Except for their eyes which separate the Celestians in the order we are in."
"Do you have different colored eyes too? It's like I'm walking on a world where all the rainbows ends."
Jesse chuckled. "Yes, we might give that impression. I don't have the colored eyes yet. We won't have that till we are accomplished guardians. I—I hope I can still be." They were quiet for a moment. Jesse looked around, tears slowly accumulating in his eyes. Everything I am, everything I've ever wanted to be, I've known in this place.
"So what will yours be?"
"My what?"
"The color of your eyes."
"Yellow. As a guardian of Intelligence." Beca shivered at the thought of Jesse having yellow eyes. She remembered their captor briefly. "I won't be like him Beca," Jesse reassured.
Finally, they saw in a distance a great marbled hall of different colors. Beca's mouth hanged open as she stared at it. She had to stop to swallow it all in.
"Beautiful isn't it? It houses the greatest of guardians, the highest of our order. They are the guardians of the ideals as a whole. They know each ideal in and out. And they are the wisest and oldest among all of us," Jesse pronounced rather dramatically.
"My mother…is in there?"
"Yes, she is the first human guardian."
"So, how old is she?"
"Maybe several thousands of years old."
"Wow… so—so…where—where do we go?"
"We go there," said Jesse pointing to a hall with swirling red and white colors. Beca reached for Jesse's outstretched hand as they began their descent to the numerous stairs leading to the colored halls of Guardians of the High Order.
Back in the escaped room
"Ugh…" Xolan groaned. He slowly tried to get up, pushing himself. He also tried to open his eyes where it rested on a pair of golden feet. With throbbing head, he lifted his head and met the eyes of Lord Xanthous.
"Xolan," Lord Xanthous greeting was steely and indifferent. He lifted his head while waiting for Xolan to fully recover and stand up for him.
"Lord Xanthous… I—"
"I don't need any explanation Xolan. I saw everything. Honestly, a female bested you in a physical aspect when you can do anything to her mind."
"I—I—lost grip on her mind…"
"I can see that."
Xolan, frightened, bowed low and knelt.
"You don't have to do that Xolan, stand up," Lord Xanthous commanded.
"Please, forgive me Lord Xanthous. I know I should have done better. Planned better. Or assumed better. Forgive me, forgive me," said Xolan trembling. Suddenly, he felt a grip in his mind that he couldn't explain. A pain most terrible than what he just experienced from the hand of Beca Mitchell. It sent numerous lightning to his whole body but most of all, he felt his head crack, piece by piece. With terrified, widened eyes, he looked at the steely, indifferent composure of Lord Xanthous. The Golden Guardian's eyes were luminescent, golden and with sparks flowing out of it. Xolan tried to scream but found that he had no voice.
For in a few seconds, the guardian Xolan's existence was no more.
Such a pity. And you were one of the greatest apprentices I've ever had. Such a shame. Such a disgrace to our kind. Lord Xanthous stared hard at the empty space, feeling his anger boil to a new a level. He summoned his portal and journeyed back to Celest, fiercely determined to end his plan once and for all.
To destroy Lady Scarlet and gain power back to Celest.
