WHOO HOO! Guess who's FINALLY updating!. . .no, it's not the crazy lady
next door. It's MEEEE! Updating me LOVELY Dragon Tamer Fic! YAY!
Sorry for the lack of updates, I've been busy. Yes, I actually have! Between the poetry project, my autobiography (what kind of English teacher assigns SOPHMORES their AUTOBIOGRAPHY?! You're supposed to LIVE your life, not write about it. Grrr), the three-hundred point Spanish project, and going out with my friend Lyndsey ("Anger Management" ROCKS if you like sick humor ^_^). . .I've had it pretty booked.
There probably won't be many updates until June, maybe one or two, but don't count on it (just to warn you). June is finally SUMMERTIME, which means NO school, NO Spanish, NO idiots yelling in your ear! YAY!
Until the next update, enjoy this chapter with the major, major plot twist thingy. Yeah heah. Oooo and Hanni, Fan Art for lil' ol' MOI's fic? O la la. Should I be taking French instead? O_o
Well it's time to play with my fuzzy bunny. Oh, and if anyone is interested, I added a few more drawings to my Webshots albums (the URL is in the last chapter). ^_^
~Chapter Fourteen~
I froze, staring at the creature that was forming in front of my eyes. Though Princess was still glowing, I could see a horn shoot from the middle of her head, her eyes change shape and glow a deep red, and the fire that made her mane and tail seemed to burn brighter than they ever had.
I was in shock when she stopped glowing and her transformation was complete. She was so beautiful, and I could hardly believe this Pokemon was mine.
Was this how Shane felt when Red Spot evolved?
Anthony snickered. "So she's a Rapidash now. Big deal. No Rapidash can ever- "
"Save it," someone said. Anthony spun around and Mom and Dad were standing right behind him, holding some kind of clear glass ball with a glowing crystal inside of it. I noticed Shane was slumped into a corner of the wall, but he looked no worse than he had been.
Anthony smiled coyly. "Oh, you REALLY think your little love spell will work?"
Mom looked at me before replying. "The power of love can conquer anything," she said. (A/N: Such a Sailor Moon line! AHHH!) "And we shall seal you away!" she added, holding up the crystal with Dad.
Everything seemed to be moving in slow motion. Anthony formed another ball of dark energy and aimed it at Mom. Princess reared and aimed her hoofs towards Anthony's transparent head. Mom and Dad held up the crystal and shouted something.
Just as Princess's hoofs went clearly through Anthony's head and the crystal somehow released a beam of light and Anthony released a darker beam from his energy, Mom broke away from her grasp on the crystal and started twitching and shaking. Before Dad or I could ask what she was doing, she stopped as suddenly as she had begun, held her arms straight out, and released a rainbow-colored beam from her mouth.
I was extremely afraid I had gone crazy. What was going on? But the harder I looked, the more I realized it wasn't actually Mom making that rainbow beam. I could see a faint transparency of one of those dark blue horned creatures, her eyes open, her horn glowing, and seeming so . . . happy, as if she were living again.
Mystical started hopping up and down, and released some attacks of her own towards the same target 'Mom' was releasing hers at: Anthony.
I could see Anthony starting to shrivel up, and my heart leapt.
Dad tossed the crystal ball towards Anthony's head while it was glowing. To my shock, Anthony completely shriveled up and was sucked into the crystal. The ball turned black for a second, then returned to its normal white glow.
Anthony was gone.
Mom laughed a little, then fainted. Dad and I immediately rushed to her side.
"April?" he whispered.
Mom's eyes fluttered open. "He's sealed away?" she asked.
"Yes," Dad answered.
Mom's eyes got bigger. "But how? What happened?"
"He got sucked into that crystal thing," I said. "And then it was black, then it glowed."
"So he's really sealed. . .but. . .I didn't. . ." Mom stuttered.
Dad lifted Mom up by her shoulders and let her lean on him. "Diana, your Mom and I have to talk about something in that-" He pointed to one of the sets of giant double doors "-room over there. You. . .you go and get Princess, okay?" He smiled, and helped Mom over to the doors and went inside the room.
I jogged over to my new Rapidash, was laying down asleep with Mystical curled up against her.
"Friends already," I whispered. I touched Princess's muzzle, trying not to cry.
I heard a groan, which startled me. I spun around and saw Shane, appearing as if though he was trying to get up. I walked over to him and bent down so I was eye-to-eye with him.
"You okay?" I whispered.
Shane slowly opened his eyes, which darted right to me. "Apart from having a bunch of broken bones, bruises, cuts, and having an evil man possess me and finding out why I've been coming down here, yeah, I'm fine."
I smiled. "So I guess it wasn't really you killing the dragons."
Shane winced as he tried to shake his head. "No, it was that. . .that Anthony. He made me come down here. Part of me was trying to fight, because I wanted to protect these creatures as much as your mom does for some weird reason. . .but I couldn't."
A small tear ran down my cheek for some reason. I lifted my hand to wipe it away, but Shane beat me to it. He gently grabbed my face in his hands and wiped my tear away.
I smiled a little again, thinking he would let go of my face, but he didn't. He just kept staring at me with his big green eyes, and I started to blink a lot from being uncomfortable.
Just as I was about to ask him why he wasn't letting go of my face, he pulled it a little, leaned towards me, and pressed his lips to mine.
By instinct I closed my eyes, but after a second they shot open. What the heck was Shane. . .KISSING me for?!?! I tried to pull away, but for some reason, I just couldn't. Some force I didn't understand kept me from pushing him, jumping up, and running away.
'But then again,' I thought. 'Where would I run to in here?'
When the kiss ended, Shane finally let go of my face and felt limply against the wall again, his eyes shut in pain.
I just sat there in shock before moving. Shane had just kissed me. Shane Mavens, the guy I had seen nearly every day at school since I was nine had just kissed me.
I stood up and back away from him. What had he done? Was he delirious or something? Or had he actually meant it and I was supposed to be his girlfriend now?
What had really happened?
I didn't really care what Mom and Dad were talking about, that room they were in was my only escape. I looked out of the corner of my eye to make sure Princess and Mystical were okay, and ran into the still-open double doors, another tear running down my cheek.

Let's all chant:
PLOT TWIST! PLOT TWIST! PLOT TWIST! P-L-O-T-T-W-I-S-T! YAY!
I'm sorry for the cheerleader-like comments (no offense to cheerleaders reading this ^_^). I'm not like this. NO! MOMMY! GIMMIE A TWELVE-OUNCE POUND CAKE! I WANT PIE!
