Okay, here's part two. From here on the real story begins. I'll be gone for about five days though on a trip, so just enjoy this and I'll post chapter four when I get back. Hey, it would be nice to get some reviews though! Lol!
Chapter 3: A Surprise Guest( Part Two) Still Hay Lin's POV"Wow! Imagine if she had actually found out." Taranee breathed, rubbing her neck.
"Yeah, there's a show stopper!" Irma exclaimed dramatically. She walked over to the old fountain again and put her hand on her hip and sighed knowingly.
"Well, since our powers are on the low down, don't you think we should use the old Heart of Candracar to boost us up a little bit? We still need to practice you know."
"You don't need to tell me twice! Heart of Candracar!" Will threw her head back and thrust her palm out for the Heart of Candracar to send shimmery teardrops to her friends. Before they knew it, their transformations were complete, with their regular clothes being replaced with stripped leggings, midriff-bearing tops, skirts, and best of all flowery wings. Hay Lin loved her Guardian form and just couldn't help taking off in flight feeling a rush of fresh air as she spun around the other Guardians. When she noticed the others looking around for something, she pulled herself to a stop and landed.
"What's up?" she asked when Will shook her head.
"I thought I heard something, but I think all this thinking is getting to my head."
Irma stood with her hands tingling with blue magic and shot at the fountain. It sprang to life with sparkling water shooting up from its sprout and Irma sighed with satisfaction.
"Well, it's not nearly as high as I tried to make it go but hey, at least it's working." Irma shrugged with a mischievious smile.
Taranee took a while to burn a pile of logs that if a couple of weeks ago, would have easily been burnt to a crisp. Hay Lin could tell that she was agitated at that fact, but she still handed the larger fire to Irma with a small grin and a wink. Hay Lin even started to think that everything wasn't too bad. Her powers weren't working well, yes but at least she had her friends. I mean, she thought again, most of my friends. A few seconds later, Will started talking again.
"While we were in the car, my mom had to talk to me about my priorities. And Taranee, she uh, kind of wants you to tutor me in math." Will rushed out nervously, scared to really say it slower. Taranee just gave her and understanding smile.
"Okay." She replied.
"Really? Thanks!" Will exclaimed relieved, but then she went back to her Guardian self. "Okay, now it's my turn."
Hay Lin saw Will let out the Heart of Candracar and her entire body was filled with a pink light. Waves of electricity were flying through the air in a spectacle like a firework show. She zapped them back inside of her and leaned against a pillar breathing slowly.
"Doing magic now, takes a lot out of you." She panted wiping a bead of sweat off her forehead.
"Yeah but Will, that was amazing! Your magic lightning bolt things like jolted our energy or something! They were so cool! And-" Irma's fan speech was cut short by an unsuspected cry.
"Will?"
All the Guardians were frozen when they turned around slowly to see Susan Vandom staring at them with her mouth a gape. She opened and closed her mouth several times trying to find the right words for what she was seeing. It felt like she was staring forever until she spoke.
"You're, you're not Will! You can't be. Th- that can't be possible."
Uh oh, Hay Lin thought as she bit her lip. This can't be good.
Hay Lin watched worryingly as Will's mom started to turn white and shaky. She gasped and started to get a little queasy when she saw Susan's eyes tone in on their wings. If anything, that would be the catch that they weren't normal. Susan's eyes went even bigger than before as she jumped back horrified, narrowly missing the long tree branch lying on the floor dangerously.
"What are you!" she screamed. "I came here when I saw my daughter come in but-" she took a breath trying to take all this in. "You," she said pointing at Taranee, Irma, and Will. "You all made water, fire, and some kind of pink lightning come out of your hands! And you flew!"
The cat's out of the bag now! Our powers that we have kept hidden so carefully are now in the open, our secret has been discovered! How are we going to fight evil now? Hay Lin noticed that Will wasn't speaking. She would have thought that she would try to comfort her mother. I guess that she doesn't want her mom to know that it is her. To see a magical being and then find out that it is your daughter would surprise you big time, Hay Lin figured. Susan still hadn't had enough though.
"Where's my daughter! You can't really be real!"
Oh, how untrue that is. All of a sudden, Will's shoulders shot up to her ears and she bit her lip nervously. This was too much for Susan who dropped her mouth, and her purse!
"Oh my God!" she whispered. "You are Will." She turned to the rest of the girls looking very sick but thoughtful as she looked carefully at each of them.
"Taranee, Irma, Hay Lin?" she asked softly quivering. Hay Lin slowly nodded her head. Great! We're in for it now in Candracar!
"Will?"
"Mom, it's me." She whispered.
"That's not possible!" she yelled angrily now, not daring to believe any of this. She looked like she was about to faint.
The next events happened so swiftly and so fast that no one saw them coming. Susan stepped back quickly only to fall over the branch and hit her head on the large pillar and slide down into the cement, hard.
"Mom!" Will screamed. They all ran to Susan who lay unconscious on the cement. Taranee felt under her head and screeched.
"She's bleeding! Really bad!"
"We need to change back now!" Hay Lin yelled.
Will brought out the Heart of Candracar and changed them back to their plain, regular selves frantically. She pulled out her cell phone and dialed the ambulance. She heard the sirens blaring moments later and there was also another car running up behind it. Will started to cry when she saw blood all around her mother and the workers get bandages to wrap around her head.
"She's losing a lot of blood!" one of them yelled. "We need to get her to the emergency room fast!"
They rushed her onto a stretcher and into the ambulance. They said that one person could go in with her. Will looked back at them with desperation.
"Go on." Hay Lin urged.
Will jumped into the vehicle with her mom and waved a painful goodbye before she closed the doors shut. It was very quiet and lonely with everyone gone. Will missed another scene that made things even worse. The two people who came out of the car trailing the ambulance were none other than Agent Medina and Agent McTiennan. And they weren't here for a road trip.
"Hello again girls." Agent Medina said crossing her arms together suspiciously.
"We have a couple of questions for you. First of all, what happened here?"
Hay Lin gulped and stared up at the agents. First Will's mom and now them! I repeat, this is definitely not good!
There's part two of chapter 3. Please review and I'll post when I get back in around five days!
