Chapter 25: Angry Parents
After her mother hung up her phone, Will knew that she had a god amount of
time before Susan was at the park to pick her up and then chew her out one the
way home, due to the after school traffic. So, she had time to work out some
kind of deal with Miranda. At least she hoped she did.
"Miranda, right?", Will questioned getting a nod from the Shape-shifter as
they looked at each other. "What do you mean that you saw Cedric sleeping
with Oceana and Blaze? They're teenage girls and he's a grown man! And from
the look on your face, you and him are an item."
"Were.", Miranda said. "We were an item! Until those girls came into the
picture!"
"You mean Oceana and Blaze?", Will questioned still surprised to find that
out.
"Oh it's not just them!", Miranda said as she shook her head. "It's them as
well as Onxy, Phoenix, Harmony, and their leader, Sydney! They have power
like you and your Guardian friends! Only they're a lot darker!"
"Are you kidding me?", Will questioned in disbelief.
"See this?", Miranda asked as she pulled up her dress enough to show Will the
bite mark she got, on her ankle, from Onxy's snake. "I was bitten by
something that had a venom that took me out for a few days! As a
Shape-shifter, I now have the antibodies to fight the venom. But I'm willing
to bet that it was one of those girls that did this to me!"
"Wait! They were in Meridian? On Metamoor?", Will asked in surprise.
"Yes.", Miranda said. "You could say that they are Phobos' very own
Guardians. As well as his Harem! And the ones known as Onxy and Oceana have
probably sunk their claws into Cedric! So, I say they can have him! I can do
better that that two-timer!"
At that moment, Will saw that Miranda was like any other girl looking for
love. And right now, she was hurting from a broken heart. And she deserved
to have some kind of closure. As well as a second chance. Then an idea came
to her.
"Okay, here's the deal. You help us deal with Phobos and your ex-boyfriend
and the Harems, and I'll talk to Elyon about not putting you in prison when
she claims her throne."
"Why would you do this for me?", Miranda asked with a raised eyebrow. "I'm
your enemy."
"Yeah! Well, right now you are a woman scorned.", Will said. "As as they
say, 'Heck have no fury than a woman scorned!'."
A smile came to Miranda's face after hearing what Will said. Not only was one
of the Guardians being nice to her, but wanted her help in taking down her
ex-boyfriend and those six witches. She then turned to Will smiling.
"I accept your offer.", Miranda said as they shook hands.
"Great!", Will said. "Now I just have to get the message to the others."
"Why don't you just go tell them?", Miranda asked.
"Well..."
Will then told Miranda what happened to her and the girls earlier.
"I think this is the work of the Harem.", Miranda said. "From what they told
Phobos and Cedric about you all, when they were on Metamoor, they really don't
like you girls."
'So, Corny was right!', Will thought to herself.
"Can you turn into any animal?", Will asked as she reached into her backpack
and pulled out a notebook and pen.
"Yes.", Miranda said. "Why?"
"I need you to get this note to Yan Lin, at the Silver Dragon restaurant.
She's the grandmother of Hay Lin, the Air Guardian.", Will said as she wrote
down something on the piece of paper and folded it a few times. "Make sure
she get's this! I'm counting on you, Miranda."
Miranda nodded as Will handed her the note. Just then, Susan Vandom came
walking up them. And she wasn't happy!
"Let's go, Will!", Susan said to her daughter. "Now!"
"Yes, mom.", Will said as she got up and walked away with her mother, knowing
that she was in for it.
After watching them walked off, Miranda looked down at the folded piece of
paper in her hand. She then held it tight as she got up and went in search of
the Silver Dragon.
"I won't fail you, Guardian.", Miranda said as she took off running. "And
thanks to my advanced sense of smell, I can track the Air Guardian scent and
find the one known as Yan Lin."
Miranda then left the park and began to track down the Air Guardian to find
Yan Lin. She ran down an ally and transformed into a raven and flew through
the air making her search a bit easier.
'I only hope they believe me.', she thought as she flew through the air with
the note in her beak.
Meanwhile, Susan was driving home with Will in the passenger's seat. At first
no one was talking as they both didn't know what to say at first. So, Will
decided to take a chance and say something.
"Mom, I..."
"Not a word.", Susan said calmly as she could, cutting Will off. "What were
you thinking Will? Streaking in high school? If it were years later, in
college, then yeah! I'd understand. But in high school? Why would you do
such a thing? Do you know that there are twelve videos of you and your
friends on YouTube? It was so humiliating seeing that at my job!"
"Your job?", Will questioned.
"Yes! My job!", Susan said. "Today was 'Bring your son to work day!' and
those who had sons brought them to work. During our Lunch Break I was heading
back from getting a bite to eat when I heard some teenage boys hooting and
yelling. I decided to check out what was going on. I saw them on a computer
and thought that they were watching some kind of video or something. I then
see a video of you and your four friends running naked through the the Lunch
Hall of your school! I then find out that there were eleven other videos of
you all! Later I get a phone call from Mrs. Knickerbocker telling me what
happened. She wants to have a meeting with me, the parents of your friends,
and your teachers tonight! How could you do such a thing, Will?"
"It's not what you think, Mom!", Will said to her mother.
"Oh really?", Susan said as she drove up to the parking lot of their apartment
building. "Let's see. You and your friends go streaking, I get a phone call,
and now have to go to your school to discuss what to do about you and your
friends. I know you've been acting strange since you became friend with
those girls, but this is the last straw, Will Vandom! What happened to the
daughter that I used to know? The daughter that wouldn't even think about
doing what you did today?"
"I'm still that girl, Mom?", Will said as Susan parked the car. "Please
believe me!"
"I'm sorry, Will.", Susan said as she turned the car off. "But right now, I
just don't know what to think."
Hearing that hurt Will big time. And seeing her mother's eyes water made her
eyes water as well. Susan then got out of the car without saying a word.
Will got out so her mother could locked the doors and followed her mother to
the elevator the went up to the floor where their home was. Once their, Susan
sent Will to her room until she was finished cooking dinner. As Susan began
to make dinner she stood in front of the kitchen sink and looked at her
reflection in the window.
"Where did I go wrong?", Susan asked herself as she
looked sadly at herself as some tears began to flow.
Once in her room, Will tossed her backpack in the chair in the corner and
kicked off her shoes and tossed her jacket on the same chair her backpack was
on. She then flopped down on her bed face first and began to cry. She then
turned on her side and curled up while holding a stuffed frog her mom bought
her when she was a little girl.
"Why is this happening to us?", Will cried as she held the stuffed frog close.
"This isn't fair! How can we Guardians unite when we're going to be
separated?"
Meanwhile, Irma had just gotten home to see her parents sitting on the couch
not looking to happy.
"Hi, Mom. Hi, Dad.", Irma said hoping her parents would hear her out.
No such luck there.
"What were you thinking, Irma?", Anna asked her
daughter. "Streaking in school? I thought you knew better!"
"I know we raised you better.", Tom said. "So, question is, what made you do
this?"
"Just listen to me!", Irma yelled.
"No! You listen, young lady!", Tom snapped as he jumped up from the couch
making Irma jump back. "You are to go up to your room right now and get start
on any homework you have to do! Cause you will be busy watching your brother
later on tonight while your mother and I go to your school for a meeting with
Mrs. Knickerbocker as well as the parents of your fellow streakers and your
teachers! Now get going!"
"But, Dad..."
"You heard your father, Irma!", Anna said. "Go to your room!"
Irma then saw the hurt looks on both of her parents faces and her eyes began
to water as she headed upstairs and to her room. Once upstairs, she heard the
front door open and close.
"Mom! Dad! Guess what?", her little brother, Chris yelled as he came into
the Living Room of the Lair home. When I got off the bus and was heading
home, I heard some older kids say something about Irma and her friends running
butt naked through her school!"
"Go to the Dining Room table and do your homework,
Chris!", Tom Lair said in a calm yet stern voice.
"But I don't have any homework today.", Chris said
happily.
"Then go to your room and play with your toys or video games.", Anna said.
"Aw, man!", Chris said as he walked up the stairs. "Why do I have to go to my
room? I'm not the one who ran around naked in school!"
"Chris! Room! Now!", Tom said to his son.
Not wanting to make his dad madder, than what he was, Chris headed upstairs.
Once upstairs, Chris headed for his room. But not before passing by Irma's
bedroom door.
"Nah!", Chris said. "She's in enough trouble."
Chris then headed for his room and closed the door. As for Irma, she was in
her room standing with her back against the door. She then slid down into a
sitting position with her knees to her chest. Irma then held her knees to her
chest and rested her head on her knees and began to cry.
"This is one of the worse days of my life!", Irma cried as she thought back to
the looks on her parents faces. "They'll never trust me again!"
At the Cook residence, Taranee was getting chewed out by her parents!
"What were you thinking, Taranee?", Theresa asked her daughter as she was
pacing back and forth in front of the fireplace. "Streaking in school?
Humiliating not only yourself, but your family as well! When we got the phone
call from Mrs. Knickerbocker about what you did, we were shocked and upset!"
"And then your brother comes home and tells us about seeing a video of you and
your friends streaking online from a friend's laptop!", Lione said as he stood
in front of Taranee as she was sitting in a chair. "You've been acting real
strange since you became friends with those girls, Taranee! I'm not trying to
judge them, but I'm starting to think that they might be a bad influence on
you!"
"What?", Taranee questioned in surprise. "They're not a bad influence!
They're the best thing to happen to me in a long time!"
"Oh! So you're saying that all we've done for you was nothing?", Lione
questioned with a bit of hurt in his voice.
"That's what it sounds like to me!", Theresa said with some hurt in her
voice.
"That's not what I meant!", Taranee said. "I meant friend wise, they're the
best thing that happened to me!"
"Well, I don't think you'll be spending time with them anytime soon!", Lione
said. "You are to go to your room and get started on your homework until
dinner is ready!"
"And later on tonight, your brother will be watching you, while me and your
father will be at school for a meeting about what to do about all of this!",
Theresa said.
"What?", Peter said coming out from the kitchen. "But I have a date
tonight!"
"Well, you can thank your sister and her friends for this.", Lione said. "Now
up to your room, Taranee! Now!"
"Thanks a lot, Sis.", Peter said as he headed up to his room to call his date
a cancel their date.
Once in her room, Taranee laid on her bed and cried feeling upset about all
that has happened.
"First, I get humiliated in school, and then this happens!", she cries. "Why
is this happening?"
Elsewhere, at the Hale's apartment home, Cornelia was getting it just as bad
as the other girls.
"Well, I hope you're proud of yourself, young lady!", Elizabeth said to her
daughter. "You've gone and humiliated yourself and your family! Do you know
that I've gotten phone calls from some of the parents of your fellow students?
All saying how they caught their sons watching online videos of you and your
friends streaking through the school!"
"Online videos?", Cornelia questioned in shock knowing that now they're going
to be seen around the world butt naked.
"Yes! Online videos!", Harold said. "I don't know what was running through
that head of your, Cornelia Hale, but if you wanted some attention, well
you've gotten what you wanted! I give it a week before this goes world
wide!"
"Go to your room and get started on your homework!", Elizabeth ordered her
daughter. "Dinner will be ready within the hour!"
"Yes, Ma'am.", Cornelia said as she got up from the couch she was on and
headed up the stair.
"And tonight, you will be watching your sister while your mother and I go to
your school for a meeting with your principal, your teachers, and your friends
parents.", Harold said. "Do I make myself clear, young lady?"
"Yes, Sir.", Cornelia said as she headed upstairs and into her room.
"Maybe part of this is our fault for spoiling her the way we did.", Harold
said as he sat in his recliner chair.
"I believe you're right.", Elizabeth said sadly. "And if Cornelia does this
at this age because of us, who knows what Lillian might do when she's
Cornelia's age?"
"Well, that's not going to happen!", Harold said. "From now on, we're going
to be better parents to them both! A bit more stricter on them when they do
something wrong."
"And Cornelia's punishment?", Elizabeth asked.
"I'm not sure yet.", Harold said. "I have some ideas, but I want to go to
this meeting first, and hear what they have to say."
"I agree", Elizabeth said. "To think that our daughter would do something
like this! Disgraceful!"
"It's already done, dear.", Harold said as got up and looked out the window.
"The question is, what will we do about it."
Upstairs, in her room, Cornelia overheard what her parents just said as she
sat at her window. Tears were running down her face.
"What am I going to do now?", Cornelia questioned. "How can we fight Phobos
and his goons when we're going to be separated not only in school, but outside
of school as well? Who's going to help Elyon, Caleb, and the rebels? I don't
want to lose them! I don't want to lose my friends!"
Cornelia then began to cry, fearing the lose of her friends. Meanwhile, in
the Lin home, Hay Lin was being chewed out by her parents!
"This is unbelievable, Hay Lin!", Chen said as he looked down at his daughter
as she sat in one of the chairs of the Living Room.
"Disgraceful!", Joan said. "What were you thinking? Streaking through
school? Humiliating yourself like that? How could you do such a thing?"
"I'm sorry!", Hay Lin said. "But it's not what you think! Me and the
girls..."
"If I were you, Hay Lin, I'd be more worried about yourself right now!", Joan
said. "Your friends are in enough trouble with their own parents! And as for
you, well, we haven't thought of a proper punishment yet! But we will! Trust
me when I say that, young lady!"
"Yes, Ma'am.", Hay Lin said in a soft and sad voice as she had her head held
down.
"Know you are to go to your room and do your
homework.", Chen said. "I will bring you your dinner when it's done. And
later tonight, your grandmother will be watching you while your mother and I
will be going to a meeting at your school tonight to talk about what do to
with you and your friends!"
"Yes, Sir.", Hay Lin said sadly as she headed for her room.
Watching the whole thing was Yan Lin, who felt for all three of them. Chen
and Joan saw the look on her face and softened a little.
"Do you think we were to ** her?", Joan asked her mother-in-law.
"You are her parents.", Yan Lin said with a kind smile. "You can't be soft on
her all the time. There are times when you have to bring the hammer down."
"Thank you, mother.", Chen said. "We'd better get back down to the
resturant."
Joan nodded her head as they headed back down to the Silver Dragon to take
care of things before they had to leave for their daughter's school. As for
Yan Lin, she made her way to Hay Lin's room to find out the truth about what
happeed. Once ther she saw Hay Lin laying on her bed crying. Seeing this,
Yan Lin went up to the bed and sat down on the side of it. Hay Lin looked at
her grandmother and hugged her as she cried. Yan Lin held her grand-daughter
as she cried.
"Oh, Grandma!", Hay Lin cried. "It wasn't our fault! One minute we were were
clothed! The next poof! We're siting their in our birthday suits!"
"I believe you dear.", Yan Lin said. "But to everyone else, it looks
like... Well... You know."
"What are we going to do?", Hay Lin asked. "W.I.T.C.H. needs to be close so
we can fight the bad guys!"
"You just leave that to old Yan Lin.", Yan Lin said. "I may have an idea.
But to do this, I'll have to call on an old friend."
"What old friend?", Hay Lin asked.
"You shall see.", Yan Lin said with a smile.
Just then a raven flew in through Hay Lin's window
surprising her and Yan Lin. The bird landed gently on Yan Lin's shoulder and
dropped the note in her hand.
"That's weird.", Hay Lin said.
"Indeed.", Yan Lin said as she opened the note and read it.
Dear Ms. Lin,
I know this sounds weird, but the animal that brought you this note is
Miranda, the shape-shifter. Trust me when I say that she's on our side. And
she has her reasons. Please listen to what she has to say. And tell Hay Lin,
W.I.T.C.H. Forever! She'll know what it means.
Sign,
Will
"I see.", Yan Lin said as she looked at the raven on her shoulder. "It's
okay, Miranda. You can change back to normal."
"Miranda?", Hay Lin questioned in shock as the raven jumped off of Yan Lin's
shoulder and transformed back to normal. "Get back, Grandma!"
"Clam yourself, Hay Lin.", Yan Lin said as she handed her the note Will wrote.
"Read this."
Hay Lin read the note carefully, word for word. Then her eyes went wide as
she saw the last two sentences!
"That's the code we decided to use in any notes we send to each other in case
something like this happens.", Hay Lin said as she looked at Miranda. "When
did you run into Will?"
"Well, actually, she ran into me.", Miranda said quietly so no one else would
hear her. "Afterwards, we talked and after she offered me the chance to get
even with Cedric and those girls, I decided to join forces with you all."
"Okay.", Hay Lin said. "Tell us what you know."
"Very well.", Miranda said as she sat in a chair. "Some of it may surprise
you. As well as scare you."
So, Miranda told Hay and Yan Lin all that she knew. From Oceana, Blaze, Onxy,
Phoenix, Harmony, and Sydney
being Phobos' very own Guardians, to Phobos and Cedric being on Earth! After
hearing all of this, they had one thing to say.
"We're in trouble!", Hay Lin said.
"Not good. Not good at all.", Yan Lin said.
A/N: Well, the girls got chewed out by their parents and are hurting from it
all. But two of the girls and Yan Lin know about Phobos' Harems and about
Phobos and Cedric being on Earth. That's a good and bad thing. They know
where they are, but they're in their hometown! Who knows what happens next!
