Hope your enjoying it. My throat hurts :/ sadness. Well enjoy! :) WOAH I knew this chapter was long but not 4000+ long. there just really wasn't a good time to stop.

CH 19

"This way!" Kyle pulled my hand as we ran through the bushes of a tropical forest.

"This is all your fault." I panted and ducked under a branch.

"My fault how?" He smirked and checked over his shoulder.

We both checked behind us and could see the trees and bushes being knocked down and shoved out of the way. There was a loud roar which got our adrenaline pumping again and we bolted past the trees and brush.

"You just had to go in there didn't you?" I narrowed my eyes at him.

We didn't notice the hill in time and we stumbled down. I rolled all the way down until the sudden stop ceased our fall. Frantically getting to my feet I checked over my shoulder. It was still coming for us and it sounded angrier than ever.

"You know that little voice in your head that says 'don't do stupid'? Well you obviously don't have one!" Gritting my teeth didn't help the anger I felt right now.

"You know, I don't think you would be as mad if you would DROP the subject and just run!" Grabbing my arm forcefully he pulled me along behind him.

"Yeah, let's drop the subject about being chased by a CRETAN MINOTAUR!"

We are so going to die. If we didn't then I was going to destroy Kyle. That was a fact.

"Do you think about your actions before you do stupid?" I coldly snapped at him.

"I think we all know the answer to that, Bree." He smirked at me. It's true I already knew the answer but sometimes you just wonder.

All the running for our lives was getting tiring. The anger was building up in me and I could feel my heart racing. Seeing a large cliff we were headed towards gave me an idea, though I wasn't sure if it would work. We would die either way.

"Dead end." Kyle sighed peering over the cliff that seemed to never end.

"RAWR!"

We turned around and saw the face of the Minotaur. It had two horns on its head. Then it had four arms. Two for each of us. My head was rushing with any way of getting us out of here. I was afraid to turn into that dark fairy again. The thought of looking evil wasn't sitting right with me. Then it started to charge at us.

"JUMP!" Quickly I turned around pulling Kyle with me to the edge then giving one last jump off.

"This is the plan!?" He screamed as the air surrounded us. "Use the wind power thing!"

"They told me not to use them!" My stomach felt like it was going to come out my mouth.

The further we fell the darker it got, but the more visible the bottom became. Wait a second, the bottom?

"BREE!" Kyle screamed at me. Finally giving in, the air surrounded us spiraling us back up into the sky freely floating above the clouds. "ABOUT TIME!"

"You know, you were the one that had to go explore in that cave and through a stupid rock at it. Who does that!?" My eyes were blazing with anger.

"It isn't that bad up here." His nerves were finally relaxing a bit.

Trix

"Sisters, how about we play a little game with the twirp." Icy bitterly said as she grinned at the sight of Briana and Kyle in her seeing ball.

"We should send pandemonium sprites. They were fun." Darcy deviously grinned.

"It has to be something she can't handle." Stormy said.

"You're right, and I know just the thing." Icy smiled proudly at herself.

We floated in the air for awhile still trying to catch out breaths. At least there was nothing up here.

"Uh Bree," I followed Kyle's gaze. Some strange creature was flying towards us.

"oh no,' I sighed as it hit me. My concentration was knocked off and we fell. The wind wised past my ears. The only thing I could hear was the wind and Kyle's screaming. As hard as I tried I couldn't seem to get us back flying again.

"The ground!" Hearing Kyle's fearful yell messed me up again.

I was getting stressed and there was too much going through my mind. Getting Kyle was my number one concern, and then not dying was my second. My heart was racing and pounding through my chest.

"I c-can't," Fear was overtaking me and I no longer felt the anger that always helped me. "I CAN'T DO IT!" I screamed.

"Bree you can do it!" Kyle tried to encourage me. One last try until we hit the ground. I let the wind spin around me and I dove through the air to grab Kyle. "Told you so." He panted as we landed in the middle of a field.

"S-Sorry," Catching my breath felt impossible.

"No worries." His hand fell onto my shoulder and then his knees buckled causing him to fall to the ground.

"Did it really scare you that bad?" I giggled and sat next to him.

"What? Nah," He waved his hand and fell back panting.

"I'm back."

I heard the deep raspy voice from behind me. Instantly I froze unable to make a sound or a whimper. It was Bone. The man who seems to always show up and ruin my life.

"Professor Palladium, how is this man in the simulation chamber?" Oritel concernedly asked.

"I am not sure. This wasn't something I did." He curiously looked at the screens.

"Tecna are you able to fix this?" Samara nervously asked.

"Whatever is going on it's not the computers. This is dark magic." Tecna rapidly pressed several buttons but nothing seemed to be working.

Marion watched fearfully as her daughter stood almost lifeless. Oritel tried to comfort her but it was of no use.

"I want my son out of there now." Erendor sternly ordered.

"Why isn't Briana doing anything?" Miss Faragonda nervously asked.

"I don't know." Marion said weakly.

"Bree?"

I could hear Kyle's voice but my body didn't move. My eyes were fixated on that knife Bone held. His bitter devilish smirk played with me causing me to freeze up even more. I wanted my mom and I wanted out of here. Why would they put him in here?

"Bree, it's going to be ok." The soothing sound of Kyle's voice reminded me I still had to breathe.

"Why don't you listen to that little friend of yours? Everything will be just fine once I'm done with you." Bone extended his knife at me and started charging.

My feet felt heavy like anchors and I wasn't even sure if I could move them. The only thing I seemed to concentrate on was my heart practically pounding out of my chest. Though, the silver blade of the knife also caught my attention.

"Back off!" Kyle jumped in front of me and flipped the guy over us.

I am not quite sure how he managed to do that but he did. Then his hands gripped mine and started pulling me. My legs felt like jell-o and my mind was racing with thoughts I couldn't seem to get a handle on everything. The world around me felt so distant.

"No!" Bone's strong grip grabbed my foot and pulled me down.

"DAD!" I managed to scream. Why weren't they turning the simulator off?

"I want her out now!" Oritel ordered frantically. He watched his daughter on the screen fight the man. His heart was pounding.

"Tecna, you can do this." Bloom encouraged but really she felt scared too.

"Something has to be able to stop this." Daphne thought trying to figure out a way to save her little sister.

"Kyle is in danger too." Samara said as she watched her son. Sky tried to comfort his mother by placing a reassuring hand on her shoulder.

"I don't know about you guys, but this looks like the trix to me." Stella crossed her arms.

"Fight, Bree!" Kyle ordered.

Ordering me to do something is one thing but having me actually do it is another. The fear was building up and it was hard to breathe. Everything raced around me and I couldn't think straight. What made this man so powerful that he had me completely defenseless by my own fear?

"I'm going to destroy you." I looked back over my shoulder and saw his rotten teeth as his lips curled up.

"Let go!" Kyle kicked the guy in the face then pulled me up. Once again we tried to run away but this time Bone grabbed Kyle and threw him to the ground with a punch in the face.

"KYLE!" Before I could run over to check on his limp body I felt Bone grab me and throw me back.

He got up and approached Kyle with his knife held high. Tears spilled down my cheeks. The thing you wished would never happen much less exist was happening to me. Instead of anger I felt fear until I saw Kyle wearily move his fingers. He was going to be ok. I had to get to him.

"What's it like watching the one you care about slowly die?" Bone bitterly grinned at me with his yellow eyes. Now I was mad.

Before I realized what had happened, I was knocking Bone off his feet twirling around and kicking him backwards directly in the gut.

Wow I'm good! Take that suckers! You have to have some praise for yourself in a time like this.

I examined myself and noticed I was in my black dress. The fear was still present but not as much as my anger. My black wings sparkled from the sun. They were actually kind of pretty. Too bad dark colors pretty much represent evil.

Bone jumped to his feet, but I was ready. I sent a fire ball at him and then as he fell backwards again, I sent vines that forcefully pulled him down to the ground with a thud. Once I realized what I was doing I backed up to Kyle. I didn't want to hurt anyone, at least not looking like this.

"Kyle?" Cradling his head in my lap I caressed his face as tears poured out. I wanted this to be over. I wanted this test to be done with. Screams tempted me but I held them in. Is this just part of the test? I hope so.

Finally everything disappeared. I continued to cry as Kyle remained still in my lap. My wings disappeared and my dress turned back to my jeans and t-shirt. I kept staring at his face. Never, have I seen him this peaceful and it was heart wrecking.

"Briana!"

Voices called for me and I looked up barley able to see through the tears. My parents and Kyle's parents ran towards us. My tears were endless and I couldn't get myself to get up or approach them. I let them run to me.

"Get him to nurse Ofelia!" Samara ordered as Erendor picked up their son. Watching them carry my friend away didn't help the pain for me.

"Briana, are you ok?" Mom sat in front of me and cupped my face trying to wipe away my tears but they kept coming.

The only way I could answer was shake my head. She pulled me into her and cradled me allowing me to cry. Then I felt strong arms wrap around me and pick me up. I found peace in my father's shoulder as he carried me out of the simulator. He carried me for awhile until we were all in Miss Faragonda's office. Once Mom sat in a chair he placed me with her and she held onto me as my sisters stood on both sides of me.

"Why would they do that?" Bloom's voice was soft and confused.

"They're the Trix, do you even need to ask that question." Musa said.

"They did this to me during my exam." I heard Bloom say.

Wow, I am way over these witches. I know they are supposed to be mean and all but, was it really necessary to pick on me? Then again I did insult them. Why dose Karma have to exist.

"Briana, would you like to come with me?" Hearing my name caught my attention and I looked up at Daphne smiling at me extending her hand to me.

I didn't want to go with Daphne; I wanted to stay with Mom. Not even bothering to release my arms from around Mom, I shook my head without a word. Words never came out of my mouth because I had nothing to say. They saw what happened in there.

"Here, my sweet little one" Mom slid me off her lap and I wiped my tears away now that everyone could clearly see me. She stood up and took my hand leading me past all the curious eyes and into the hallway.

"Want to go on a little walk?" She asked. Honestly I didn't want to. My legs still felt wobbly like I could fall any second, but I nodded my head anyways.

Through the lively halls many other girls waved to me. Since my last visit a lot of them saw me around and realized I was the sister of Bloom and Daphne. Apparently Bloom and Daphne are somewhat of celebrities here and so everyone tries to kiss up to me to get to them. It's kind of funny though.

"Hey Bree," One girl waved to me as we walked by. I weakly smiled back at them.

"What's up Briana?" Another girl waved at me and headed off to class.

"Quite the little miss popularity, hmmm?" Mom teased with a giggle. I only shrugged. "Darling, are you alright?"

Why would she ask that? She knows I'm not ok. I just got attacked by a psychopath who hurt Kyle and now needs medical assistance. Truth be told, I hate being around people when I'm upset.

"Why was he in there?" My voice was soft.

"Those witches were trying to scare you." We stopped walking and sat down on a bench in the central courtyard.

"Well it worked." I sighed heavily.

"You were a lot braver than you think. I'm proud of you, sweetheart." She put an arm around me and a rested my head on her.

"I wasn't brave. I just stood there while Kyle did everything. I was too scared to transform sooner because I didn't want to be evil." My eyes felt like they were burning and my throat had a knot in it.

"No, you are powerful and once you transformed we thought something went wrong, but it didn't. You never did anymore than what you had to do to protect yourself and Kyle." She kissed my forehead.

"So I didn't look bad or evil?" I looked up into her loving eyes.

"No, you acted just like any other fairy would. The only reason you're not happy with it is because you don't feel like everyone else, but you don't have to be like everyone else."

Thinking about what she had said made me realize she was right, as always. I suppose the thought of looking evil was holding me back, but I didn't do anything wrong when I was in my transformation form. Really, I went easy on the guy. Finally I looked up at here with a weary smile.

"Can I go check on Kyle?" Weakly smiling up at her she softly nodded her head.

My heart was still racing, but it was slowly settling down. The closer I came to the nurse's office the more anxious I became. Worrying about him was one of my weaknesses and this was when it started to show. In a way, I wish they hadn't made us go into the simulator to see what we were capable of. We are twelve, we shouldn't have to worry about these things, but somehow the subject always came up.

"Kyle?" I knocked softly on the door and peaked in. He was already sitting up with Samara sitting next to him.

"How are you feeling Briana?" Samara asked as she ran her fingers through Kyle's wavy black hair.

"Oh, I'm fine. I came to check on Kyle." My voice was soft in a whisper. I felt as if talking louder would hurt him or me.

"Thanks Bree." Through all the pain Kyle still managed to smile at me with his boyish smile.

"Well, I'll leave you two alone." Samara kissed Kyle on the forehead and smiled at me as she left gently shutting the door behind her.

"So," The simplest word I could think of.

"Bree, I'm fine." He smirked.

"What makes you say that? I know you are." My eyes curiously examined him.

"Knowing you, you are probably worried." He patted a spot next to him motioning me to sit down. Gently I leaned down onto the bed and finally sat. "Read anything in the book yet?"

"Not since we got back from our little trip yesterday." The book was still shrunken in my pocket and I pulled it out revealing its normal size. I flipped through the pages and chapters finally stopping and picking Ch 10.

"That looks like an interesting chapter." Shifting on his pillow he leaned back smiling at me.

"Alright, Ch 10,"

'Ch 10, Transportation

A Guardian can teleport herself once she is able to use the four elements. She simply teleports by announcing her location and the location she wishes to transport to while thinking specifically of this location. After some practice, teleporting between worlds will be simple. The protector is also able to use this with his sword when it is activated.'

"Well, that doesn't seem too hard." I finished skimming the page and closed the book.

"You gonna try it?" Kyle asked with a mischievous grin.

"Duh, plus I have used all four elements already." My duh face made him laugh. "So announce the location you are and where you want to go while concentrating on the specific place you want to show up at. Sound easy enough." I sighed unsurely.

"Stand outside of the door and try to poof back here." I nodded at Kyle's idea and went out the doors.

"Ok, Alfea to Alfea nurse's room," I announced and focused on the spot next to Kyle's bed.

"Cool!" My eyes pealed open to see Kyle laughing with a wide smile.

"It worked?" I nervously looked around and sighed with relief. "Awesome! And it says you can do it with your sword when it's activated. Now we can hang out more." I cheered.

"Don't tell anyone about this yet." He said sternly with his boyish voice.

"I won't. They probably won't even listen to me anyways. Bloom and Daphne are off trying to figure out about where the fairy godmother is by searching for clues in a secret green house. Mom and Dad are always busy with royal stuff." I explained.

"So what are you doing about… you know?" Kyle suddenly asked breaking our silence.

"I don't know. Probably ask Bloom and Daphne for ideas. What are you going to do?" I asked curiously.

"I don't know. They don't exactly celebrate that and I don't know what to do." Letting his head fall back onto his pillow he let out a loud sigh.

"Make a card with how you feel or something." I suggested while my own ideas were flying around in my mind. Finally, I gave up and pulled out my cell phone texting Bloom.

'We need to talk about a special day coming up.' I sent her the message and slid my phone back into my pocket.

"Well, come on Kyle." Erendor barged in startling both of us and causing me to jump off the bed. "Lets get you home so you can rest." Then my father came in.

"Come on Briana, your mother is waiting for us to go back home." Dad said motioning me to come on.

Kyle and I both glanced at each other. We hated splitting up all the time. If we could have it our way, we would always be together. Sadly, our homes were two separate planets in two separate kingdoms. Luckily though now we know how to teleport to each other so this separation didn't feel as bad.

"Bye," I waved as I followed my father out.

"Erendor," Father shook Erendor's hand who also returned the gesture with a smile.

"Cya later Bree." Kyle waved as I left.

"I'm going to send some guards to check on that man in the Omega Dimension just to make sure." Dad said while I remained quiet. We didn't exactly have a relationship yet. "I can tell you one thing, you are not going in that simulator any time soon or much less leaving the palace." I looked up at him astonished and annoyed.

"I'm not supposed to be grounded." I snapped.

"Your not. You just need to be watched to make sure." He said sternly.

"But it wasn't my fault!" My anger was boiling up again. "Miss Faragonda made us go in there for a training lesson! Why do I always suffer when something goes wrong!?"

"You're not suffering. As a princess of Domino you need to be protected and the fact that they were able to get into your head and freeze you up like that doesn't help the situation." He snapped back at me. We continued our walked back to Mom who was waiting for us in the central courtyard.

"Well it's not like I was expecting them to just show up like that in there where you promised you wouldn't let anything bad happen!" Finally my anger was released into a yell. Once I found Mom I ran to her and stood waiting for him to catch up with my arms crossed.

"What is going on?" Mom asked concernedly noticing my father's clenched fists and angry expression. We all walked through the portal back home and were now on the palace grounds.

"Your daughter is upset." He said bitterly.

"Oritel," Mom snapped.

"No, I don't want to be his daughter anyways!" I pointed at him. Tears were building up in my eyes, but I was not about to show them I cared. Honestly I didn't care at the moment.

"Briana," Now she angrily snapped at me. Why was she mad at me? I didn't do anything wrong.

"Go to your room!" Dad yelled at me while he stood up straight with his arms crossed.

"FINE!" I screamed and stormed off. While I ran past everyone I felt the tears sneaking out, but I didn't want tears. How dare tears come out when I don't want them too.

I threw myself onto my bed with my head buried into my pillow. Why did he say that to Mom? Was he really that ashamed of me? After thinking about these questions my tears were unbearable and I let them out freely, but without a sound. If I was going to cry then they weren't going to hear it.

"We'll find you." A voice whispered as I stood alone in endless darkness.

"You belong to us." Shadows were moving all around me.

"We are all coming for you." I turned around frantically at the feel of something breathing on my neck, but then it was gone. My heart pounded and my mind was racing.

"Who are you?" I got the nerve to ask.

"Will be the ones sending your home into endless darkness, but this time we won't fail." Voices laughed around me and I kept spinning around trying to find the source. They just kept laughing and I clenched my ears trying to hide from their voices.

With speckles of sweat on my forehead, I woke up panting. Apparently I had fallen asleep and I was just now waking up. My clock read 9:00 and next to it was a tray of food. Looking down I realized I was in my pajamas and tucked away in my bed. Even though they did that for me I was still made at them. I ate my dinner still even though it was a little cold. I was still hungry enough. Then I pulled out my phone.

'Are you up?' The message sent to Kyle.

'Yup, all alone in my room.'

When I received his message I hoped out of bed and stood in the center of my room. This would be the teleports of all teleports.

"Domino to Eraklyon," I announced and concentrated on wanting to go to Kyle's room.

"Hey, Bree," My eyes pealed open and I proudle stood with my hands in the air.

"I am so awesome!" I exclaimed confidently.

"Shhhh, my parents will hear." His finger covered my lips.

"So why are you in your room?" I strolled around his room looking at everything.

"I don't know. I just needed to get away from everyone." He shrugged and sat back down on his bed. "What about you?"

"Having a fight with them and I'm just fed up with all of that princess stuff." I said simply and plopped down next to him. Kyle put an arm around me and we just sat there quietly. Buzz, buzz, buzz my phone vibrated and I decided I would check it.

'Have you seen Bloom?' Stella sent.

'Bloom left. Is she with you?' Flora texted. These questions made me so confused.

"What's wrong?" Kyle asked.

"Bloom isn't at Alfea anymore." Even though the text messages were right in front of me, I still couldn't believe she left.

"Where do you think she went?"

"Well, if she wasn't home then there is really only one other place I can think of that is a home to her." Standing up and getting ready to teleport, Kyle did the same.

"I want to come." He grinned.

"Fine," He held onto my arm, "Eraklyon to Gardenia."

"Briana?" Vanessa's voice rang.

OMG CH 20 next already! :D
