Chapter 2-A New Portal

The Guardians

"So did Caleb say what he wanted?" Will asked Cornelia as the two girls walked out of science class at the end of another school day. Cornelia had gotten a call from their rebel leader friend during lunch that day.

"He just said that he wanted to talk to us and the others after school", said Cornelia as the two girls made their way thru a crowd of kids running for freedom. It was Thursday, and no one wanted to spend anymore time in the school than they absolutely had to.

"Hi Will, hi Cornelia", said their friend Hay Lin as she, Taranee, and Irma approached them.

"Hi", said Will and Cornelia as they got their lockers open. "Caleb wants us to meet him at the Silver Dragon. Is that okay with you Hay Lin?"
"Sure", said Hay Lin pleasantly. "Lets go"

The girls started walking home, talking about school. It had been another boring day, and none of them had much to say, so Irma changed the subject.

"So is this meeting guardian related?" she asked Will.

"Dunno", she said. "Cornelia talked to him, and he didn't say anything"

"Lets take a shortcut thru the woods", Hay Lin suggested. The others nodded, and crossed the street to the woods. To bad the girls didn't get the nice, peaceful walk home they wanted. They were half way thru the woods when it happened.


"Will?" Hay Lin turned around to see why Will had stopped walking. A second later though, Will collapsed, and the girls had run over to their friend to see what was wrong.

"Will?" said Hay Lin quietly as she kneeled down next to her friend. "What's wrong?"

"Ugh", Will groaned shaking her head. "Most likely? A portal"

"Great", said Cornelia. "We're gonna be late for meeting Caleb, aren't we?"

Will glared at Cornelia and pulled herself up shakily. "Come on"

The girls were walking through the woods, trying to figure out where the portal was. A portal, after all, was the only explanation for what had happened to Will. "It should be here somewhere", Will muttered. Cornelia made a face, not happy about being late for meeting Caleb.

"Over there!" yelled Irma, pointing. They turned around, and sure enough, there was a portal.

"Okay", said Will, and Hay Lin couldn't help but notice she was shaking a little. "Now all we have to do is shut it before-" she broke off as she noticed something just a tad disturbing: something was coming thru.

"Great", said Cornelia sarcastically.

"Hide!" said Will, and the girls darted behind trees. A second later, three kids dropped out of the portal and hit the ground. One of them, a boy, had arrows running along his arms and one on top of his head. The other two, a boy and girl, were black, and the girls' hair was long enough to put Cornelia to shame.

"Where are we?" the boy with the arrow on his head asked as he stood up.

"I have no clue" said the girl as she stood up, "but lets not stick around to find out"

"Yea", said the other boy standing up as well. "Lets' head back thru whatever this is and-"

"No!" Will jumped out of her hiding place, the Heart of Candracar held high.

Avatar

The group jumped at the sound behind them, and turned around to find a girl around Kataras' age standing there, holding up a little pink crystal. Four other girls came out from behind trees and joined the girl.

"Look", said Aang, holding up his hands. "We don't want trouble. We don't even-"

"Yea right!" cried another girl, this one was short and had reddish-brownish sort of hair. "Will, I say close the portal and trap the here. Then we can use them for information"

The other girls nodded in agreement, and the girl with crystal moved the crystal till it was facing the thing behind Aang, Katara, and Sokka, and second later, the thing was gone.

"No!" yelled Aang. "Now we'll never get home!"

Sokka turned to face the girls. "Who do you think you are!" he yelled, outraged.

"We're the Guardians of the Veil", said the girl with the crystal. "Now unless you wanna fight, you'll come peacefully"

Sokka pulled out his boomerang. "Then lets fight"
