Chapter 2: "To high a price.
After the school day had ended and "Will had finally been freed from her detention after a painstaking hour, she finally returned home. Since her mom wouldn't be home until gone six, she decided to watch some TV.
"Channel sixteen please, Billy." Will asked has aimed the controller at the TV so she could listen to some music. She expected resistance knowing Billy hated having to show the modern day pop bands (it was quite an old TV) but Billy submitted allowing Will to listen to her music.
"After an hour or so of music and boy bands. The TV screen unexpectedly went blank.
"Billy! I was watching that!" Will growled.
"Don't you think it's about time you got started on your homework?" The TV queried.
"Your mother will be home soon and you know how annoyed she gets if you haven't done your homework."
"Grr! Fine I'll do my homework." Will submitted in defeat. Billy was difficult to argue with since if he "was aggravated enough he would change to a less desirable channel or simply shut off all together. Being able to talk with machines was both a gift and a burden for Will Though she had to admit they had help her to prioritise things a little better.
Will spent the next hour and a half in her bedroom completing her homework until "she was saved by the ringing of her mobile phone.
"Hello?"
"Hey Will, its Irma, how's your homework coming along?"
"Slowly." Will groaned.
"Stuck on maths again?" Irma guessed.
"Yeah what did you put for number seven?"
"Eighty-six." Irma suggested.
"Since when were you good at maths?" Will asked suspiciously.
"Since I got the answer off of Taranee." Irma chuckled.
"So has anything changed for tonight's plans?" Will asked.
"Not from what I've heard." Irma shrugged.
"I'll check with the others later tonight to make sure."
"Honey I'm home." Came a voice from the hallway
"Gotta go my moms home, Cya tonight." Will turned off her mobile, and "proceeded down stairs to greet her mother.
"Hi sweetie how was school today?" Her mother cheerily greeted her daughter.
"Oh you know same old school stuff." Will managed to say through a "some what forced smile.
"Have you finished your homework?"
"Yep." Will instantly replied trying to look has innocent has possible.
"Great. Dinner will be ready in an hour, tonight I'm making beef casserole."
"Sounds great." Will responded. Even though she wasn't entirely thrilled with the idea.
After dinner had passed and another three hours of TV on the sofa with her mother and dormouse for company Will decided to retire for the night. After nervously waiting for the next hour and a half to pass her rebellious alarm clock read: 23: 34.
Her mom had already gone to bed so Will quietly got dressed and snuck out of the house being extra careful not to accidentally step on her pet dormouse and startle the poor animal. She climbed out of the window and used the "drain pipe to slide down into the backyard were she grabbed her bike and set off towards the Sheffield institute.
When Will reached the school the other four guardians were, already waiting for their leader to arrive and complete the team.
"Ok have we got everything we need?" Will asked has she walked up to her "team mates standing near the front entrance.
Irma opened her bag revealing a flashlight and other items most of which appeared to be junk.
Hay-lin produced the "map, which showed the portals locations. The school currently marked with a strange blue swirling energy signature.
"Looks like we're all set then now how do we get into the school?" Will asked.
"Right this way." Said Irma leading the group round the back of the building.
"There's an old fire escape door, which isn't used anymore." We can get in through there. She explained.
"Great lets go! We get in We close the portal we get out. Nobody should even miss us." Will explained.
"Lets just hope "its that easy". Cornelia joined in.
"I can't remember the last time that closing a portal was ever that simple?" She stated honestly. Whilst it was true that the plans were often simple ones they rarely were has simple to execute.
The girls passed grim looks at each other each knowing that what Cornelia said was likely to hold true but none wanting to admit it.
With that the group entered the school through the old fire escape Irma had mentioned. Irma and Will at the lead with Irma's flashlight flickering across the hallways. Cornelia Hay-lin and Taranee bringing up the rear.
When they reached the gym Will suddenly stopped has her head "began intensely throbbing.
"Will are, you all right?" Asked Hay-lin in a concerned tone.
"It will pass "just give me a second." Will insisted in a weak voice. After a moment the pain in her head finally faded.
"Ok "lets go." She said finally. Will entered the gym with Hay-lin and Irma flanking her left side and Cornelia and Taranee flanking her right side.
Will reached under her sweater and produced the heart of Candracar.
"Lets do this quick she said to the rest of the group before-" That was has far she got before a new voice cut her off:
"Before what?" Came a creepy and familiar voice.
Out of the shadows came two figures one was a large figure wearing a dusty brown jacket dull grey pants and had ice blue skin with what appeared to be several jagged chunks of bone coming through. The other was much more intimidating, standing at roughly maybe twelve feet tall the creature had the lower body of a huge snake trailing behind it the upper torso seemed mostly humanoid with two powerful arms long white blond hair and what appeared to be a mask of some sort covering its eyes.
"Cedric." Will hissed through gritted teeth
"You pathetic Guardians will not re-close this portal." He growled in a low voice.
"Wanna bet? Guardians unite!" Will shouted has she focused on the heart of Candracar sending each of her fellow guardians their powers. "Each of the five girls was surrounded by a coloured energy cocoon. When they emerged the "five pre teen girls were now five young women their clothes stripped away and were replaced by their guardian outfits wings sprouting from each of the guardian's backs.
"Go!" Yelled Will. Has the group charged into combat with Cedric and Frost, Hay-lin and Irma took on Frost, while Will Cornelia and Taranee took on Cedric.
"I'm gonna squash you little pixies!" Frost growled has the two guardians flew about him easily dodging his poorly aimed blows.
"Oh yeah?" Hay-lin retorted.
"I think you need to cool off!" She yelled has she projected a powerful gust of wind from her palms that sent frost skidding across the gym floor.
"Refreshments?" Irma's suggested has she produced a blue energy sphere in each hand. She threw one towards Frost "which transformed into a stream of water upon contact with Frost which began spinning around him like a miniature whirl pool. She turned in a ballet style move and threw out the second sphere, which produced a similar effect to the first sphere.
Hay-lin added to the attack by using her air powers to levitate Frost several feet off the ground. She then pressed her glowing palms forward, which sent frost flying about the gym like a hyperactive ping, pong ball.
Meanwhile Cedric was keeping Will, Cornelia and Taranee busy with his vicious swipes, Will narrowly dodged his huge tail swinging into her using her super speed.
"Why don't we try and heat things up a little?" Taranee quipped has she produced a large fireball and hurled it towards the ground in front of the snake monster, were it quickly trapped Cedric in a circle of fire.
"Do you really expect these pathetic parlour tricks to stop me!" Cedric hissed through gritted teeth. He was about to throw a punch towards Taranee when a series of vines wrapped around his wrist holding his arm back.
"Well we do what we can." Cornelia smiled has she produced a series of vines which seemed to grow out of the walls to restrain Cedric further. Cedric now getting very angry tensed his muscles and tore away his plant like restraints. He viciously swung his massive tail towards the three guardians who each agilely back flipped away from the attack.
Cedric began to produce a ball of white-hot searing energy floating in the palm of his hand. He launched the attack towards Will who cart wheeled to her left to the dodge the attack.
"Nice try snake boy," she replied. Has she flew at Cedric her fists enveloped in pink energy spheres has she punched the snake monster, in the jaw and gut knocking the wind out of him.
Cedric fell back but began to produce a new searing hot sphere of energy. Just has Will landed he launched the attack on his target.
"WILL LOOK OUT!" Taranee screamed she raced over to the group leader and pushed her hard knocking her out of the way of the lethal attack.
Taranee cried in agony has she received the full force of the deadly attack. The rest of the group could only watch in horror has Taranee fell to the floor her eyes dead and lifeless her entire left hand side was blistered and scorched horribly disfiguring her skin.
Even Cedric and Frost were a little taken aback by the result of the attack.
When the Cedric had finally acknowledged his achievement he began laughing manically.
