A/N: Here's Chapter 29 of The Power of Love. I left you on a cliff-hanger, so I figured I should update. Three more chapters, and the story will be wrapped up, and I can post the sequel ASAP. Enjoy this chapter, and thank you for the nice reviews I received. I'll try to wrap it up. I still don't have any title for the sequel, so help me out by reviewing, or just PM me. Either way works. Ok, I'll shut up and let you read now.


"Aw, man. We lost. I'm going to run around in circles!"

--Dustin (Spring Break Up)


Chapter 29: Fire vs. Water: Baby Boom

The warehouse burst into flames. It crumbled to pieces like dominoes, as the twelve stirred and stood up. A giant group hug was formed and it tore away. Before everyone parted to be with the ones they loved. Chase slipped an arm around Zoey's waist as their eyes rested on the flaming debris before them. Zoey was the first one to speak.

"I can't believe it."

"Believe what?" Chase asked.

Zoey explained, "Everything. It's really over. There's nothing in our way now. We can finally be happy. It's a shock, but that's a good thing."

"Yeah," Chase agreed, and kissed her hair. "It's a shock, but I love you, and I'm glad it's over."

Zoey snuggled to him, and sighed happily. "Me too, Chase. Me too."

Logan pulled Dana closer to him. It was over for everyone else, but he wasn't satisfied. Andy Davis was somewhere at PCA. Anger rose inside of him, and he glared hard, ahead. He didn't even realize he was glaring until a nearby tree burst into giant flames. Zoey jumped, and with a flick of her wrist, she unleashed a powerful jet of water, and the fire was put out. Chase and Zoey came along. Michael and Nicole, joined after, and they all looked at him with raised eyebrows.

"Why are you guys looking at me like that?" Logan asked, exasperated. He sighed, angrily and ran a hand through his curls. He didn't have time for this.

"Yeah, a tree decided to spontaneously combust," Dana said, sarcastically. "Just tell us what's wrong."

"Please, Logan," Zoey said. She hated it when her friends were feeling crappy, even it was Logan. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing…" Logan muttered, avoiding eye contact. "I'll tell you when I can…but, I just want my own space."

"You sure?" Chase asked, concerned, "because we're here if you need us we're here, ok?"

"We got your back," Michael assured, placing a hand no Logan's shoulder. Logan nodded and smiled…even if it was forced.

Chase, Nicole, Zoey and Michael all left and soon it was just Dana and Logan. Dana crossed her arms and glared at her boyfriend. She knew something was up, and she wasn't going to let it slide. Logan sighed, and why Dana was looking at him with determined eyes. She wanted to know what was wrong. It might as well be Dana, if he didn't want to tell anyone else.

"Ok, listen. Either your powers are out of whack or you're upset because I know that tree didn't decide to blow up into flames by itself, so talking," Dana demanded. "You're upset—"

"Or I can't control my powers yet…" Logan interrupted.

"Liar! Just tell me!" Dana yelled in frustration. "You were fine, a while ago. What's eating you? Don't say 'Aww, you do care!' because I know you're about to smirk and say that. Maybe I do care, but just spill it! Please?"

Logan smirked, "Ok, because you said please."

"And that's never happening again. I can assure you," Dana said, waiting to hear what Logan had to say. It sounded serious because Logan looked around before pulling Dana away by the arm.

"Ok, listen," Logan started, "this is big. Huge, actually. My mom's killer has been found."

Dana's eyes went wide. Andy Davis was found? That was great. Then, why was Logan upset, and why did he burn down a tree?

"Well, that's great. Right?"

Logan sighed again, "It's awesome but it's where he is that pisses me off."

"Ok, where is he?" Dana asked. She was surprised although she didn't get to show it. "And why does it upset you so much?"

"Because he's at PCA, Dana! That's why it upsets me!"

Logan growled in frustration, and kicked a nearby tree. Dana whirled Logan around, because of two reasons. Mother Nature had already taken enough abuse from the wrath of Logan, and it killed Dana to see Logan this upset, even for him. Logan opened his open to say something but Dana quickly shut it.

"Don't talk, just listen, Logan. If this guy is at PCA, then we need to get there as soon as possible. Just do this for your mom. If he's anything like Glenn then he's an ass. I promise I'd help you…and I still want to help because I hate jerks like that, and yeah…I'm—"

Logan grabbed Dana by the shoulders and kissed her. Not just a regular kiss. It was one full of gratitude. Logan pulled away, leaving a confused Dana.

"Thanks."

"Huh? What have you been smoking, Logan?" Dana asked, in confusion. That was an awesome kiss though.

"Nothing, but thanks, Cruz," he said with a small smile and a shrug.

"Uh, you're welcome?"

"Come on," Logan said, as they interlaced fingers. Dana happily let him, but they were cut off by voices that sounded like Bryan, Courtney, Stacy, and Noah. Logan and Dana ran back to a shocking sight.

"Pay up, Bristow." Bryan said, holding out his hand to receive his five hundred bucks.

Noah grumbled as he took out five hundred dollars and gave it to Bryan. Bryan counted it and shoved it into his pockets.

"What's going on?" Dana asked, frustrated once again. No one said anything. So they went to Zoey, Chase, Michael, and Nicole.

"You wanna know what's going on. Take a look at that," Chase explained, pointing ahead.

Dana and Logan did as they were told, and their jaws dropped. Dylan and Samantha were making out. Logan opened his mouth but was at a loss for words. Zoey's reaction was unreadable. Her brother and Logan's sister were boyfriend and girlfriend. Samantha and Dylan broke apart only to have their siblings, gaping at them. They turned beet red as Logan and Zoey looked at each other, and then at the blushing couple. Dana and Chase chose to stay out of this one, and slowly backed away, leaving Logan and Zoey.

"Uh, surprise…" Dylan said, uneasily. Logan and Zoey still held their cold glares.

"What? How…but why? I—" Logan managed to sputter.

"Well, someone better start talking because I'm confused here. How long?" Zoey asked, crossing her arms.

"One year," Samantha replied, timidly. Logan finally found his voice.

"ONE YEAR! WHAT IF YOU GUYS GET MARRIED? WHAT IF YOU GUYS HAVE BABIES? I'D HAVE TO SHARE A NEPHEW OR NIECE WITH…ZOEY!"

"Well, you're no walk in the park either, Logan!" Zoey retorted. She took a deep breath. She would've slapped Logan if she didn't. "It'll take some taking used to, but…I'm happy for you guys, but that would be funny, if you guys were actually having a baby, right?"

Dylan and Logan laughed while Samantha nervously chewed on her bottom lip.

"Uh, Dylan about that…well, remember the night we, umm, were watching the movie but we weren't really watching it…"

"Yeah," Dylan said, nodding slowly. He stared into her eyes, and followed them as they went downwards landing on her stomach. His eyes widened in shock.

"You're p-pregnant?"

Samantha nodded to confirm her pregnancy. Zoey and Logan looked at each other. They were going to have a nephew or niece. Dylan's face went from incredibly shocked to ecstatic as the biggest grin appeared on his face.

"You're pregnant, Sammie?" Dylan asked again. This time he was smiling.

"Yeah," Samantha answered. "You're not mad?"

Dylan hugged her, twirling her around and kissed her passionately. He took Samantha's hands in his, and looked into her eyes. Logan and Zoey's facial expressions were still hard to read.

"Mad? Are you kidding? You're having my BABY! This is the best news ever. I'm going to be a father. How far along are you, anyway?"

"4 weeks, so a month, and I used my powers to check what we were having. I couldn't wait anymore. It's a girl, Dylan. We're going to have a daughter."

Logan and Zoey's faces broke out into giant grins. They hugged, realizing they were sharing a niece, and pulled away.

"So, does this I'll be Uncle Logan?"

And I'll be Auntie Zoey?"

"Yes," Samantha answered, giggling. Dylan wrapped her arms around her, as he kissed her hair.

Upon hearing loud whoops coming from Logan and Zoey, Chase, Courtney, Bryan, Noah, Dana, Nicole, Michael and Stacy came along, looking fairly confused. Zoey bounced with excitement, almost looking like Nicole. She couldn't keep it in anymore.

"Samantha…Dylan…niece…a month…aw, man," Zoey babbled out, incoherently. She squealed hugging Chase, and then kissed him.

"Uh, in English?" Dana asked with a cocked eyebrow.

"Yeah," Chase agreed, laughing a little. "As much as I love you kissing me, I can't understand a word you're saying, Zo."

"Dylan and Samantha are having a baby. Zoey and I are getting a new niece!" Logan blurted out. "She's already one month pregnant.

Silence.

Courtney, Stacy, and Nicole enveloped Samantha in a girl hug. The guys all slapped Dylan high-fives. They all congratulated Samantha and Dylan, although they were pleasantly surprised. There was one problem, though. Which element would the baby girl inherit? Fire, from Samantha and Logan's side of the family or water from Dylan and Zoey's side of the family.

"We all know what element the baby will get," Logan announced with a cocky grin.

Zoey nodding agreeing, "Yeah, we do. Water."

Logan retorted, "I think we all know my niece will get the fire element."

"Sorry, Logan. That's where you're wrong, because our niece could end up getting water."

I can't take another 8 months of this. Samantha thought, as she watched Zoey and Logan go at each other's throats…again.

Luckily, a whistle-like sound rang out, and Chase cut in, before a battle between fire and water literally broke out.

"It's still too early to tell. Samantha's only a month pregnant. We'll know after the baby's born, so chill out," Chase reasoned, with Zoey's arm around his shoulder. Dana and Logan went back to holding hands. "Congrats, again. Have you thought of a name?"

"Thanks, Chase," Samantha said, with a small smile. "Yeah, actually I thought of a name. Rachel. My mother's middle name."

"Sammie, it's…beautiful. It's perfect," Dylan said, after a couple moments. "And because we want the baby to have both of our last names, it'll be Rachel Brooks-Reese."

"Why won't Rachel Reese-Brooks?" Samantha asked.

Dylan reasoned, "Think about it this way. When she goes to school and she's in the yearbook, she'll be at the very front, therefore more picture time."

Samantha laughed, "When you put it that way…ok. It's Brooks-Reese then. I'm so hungry. After all, I'm eating for two now, right?"

"Oh snap! I'm missing Girlfriends," Stacy exclaimed. Everyone looked at her, weirdly. "Listen, a girl has to have her TV time. Besides, I wanna see if my team are going to the national dance championships."

Noah kissed her cheek, "Don't worry. You'll make it, ok? I'll even fly up there to watch you win."

"Yeah," Michael agreed, "And we'll be watching at PCA. Right?"

"Totally!" Nicole squealed. Zoey and Dana nodding with small smiles, so did Chase and Logan.

"Yeah, we'll definitely be watching," Chase assured. "Right, Logan?"

"Oh…yeah…"

"Bye. And if you need anything at all, you know where to find us. That's from all us," Courtney said, getting nods from everyone. Chase smiled. That was Courtney for you. The born leader.

"Samantha!" Nicole called.

Samantha turned around, "Yeah, Nicole?"

"If you need help with baby shopping, Zoey and I are here to help, so call us, ok?"

"Will do, Nicole. Thanks you guys."

Zoey and Nicole smiled.

"Dana, can I talk you to you for a minute?" Samantha asked. Logan and Dana threw each other confused, but Dana shrugged, and Logan's sister. They stopped walking.

"Thank you," Samantha said, finally.

"Thank you?" Dana repeated as a question. She wasn't doing it to be rude, but out of clear confusion.

"Yeah," Samantha said, resting her hand on her stomach. "I mean, you made Logan happy, and trust me; I haven't seen him this happy in a while. I know Logan told you, about our mother's killer, so I appreciate everything you did to make him feel better. So thanks a lot, and do me a favour."

"Ok," Dana said, shortly.

"Torture my brother a little more, ok? You're doing a great job, so far," Samantha smirked. "I like you, Dana. You never know. You can be my future sister-in-law, right?"

"Maybe," Dana smirked, "and maybe not. In all honesty, you're not bad yourself. Take care of yourself and the baby, ok?"

"Sure, thanks." Samantha and Dana hugged, before pulling away, and walking back to Logan.

"What was that about?" Logan asked, whispering in her ear.

"Sorry. Girl talk," Dana answered, as she smirked triumphantly. Dana and Samantha winked at each other. Logan obviously caught it.

"What? So, now you and my sister are like, best friends now? I know what this is. This is a conspiracy against me."

"Oh, wow. Someone's paranoid."

"Come on, please. Just tell me…" Logan pressed, whispering seductively in her ear. His voice was husky and low. Dana thought it was sexy, but she was going to make Logan suffer a little more.

"Let me think about it," Dana pretended to think, "Nope."

"Aww, baby. That hurt. That hurt, right here," Logan said, pointing to his heart. Dana smirked a sexy smirk and stuck her tongue out at her boyfriend. "Oh, yeah. Real mature, Dana."

"Yeah, yeah. You're the epitome of maturity."

"Actually I am." Logan said, smirking.

Shut up…" Dana rolled her eyes, and crossed her eyes. She secretly found it a turn-on when Logan annoyed her.

"You know you like it…" Logan drawled out.


Soon it was time for everyone to leave. Samantha was getting sleepy and needed to lie down. Because she was pregnant, in a couple months she would only have half of her powers. The other half had to be used to help Rachel develop whatever element she would get. Everyone said they're goodbyes but not before Samantha warned Logan to be careful. Logan nodded and assured her he would, and with a hug, and kiss on the cheek, she was gone.

They were all gone.

Soon it was just Chase, Zoey, Dana, Logan, Nicole and Michael left, with a pile of ash that used to be an abandoned warehouse.

"Ok, we can finally go to PCA. Just me and a stack of Pringles," Michael contemplated, gazing upwards.

"Seriously, what is with you and food?" Chase asked, laughing.

They walked as the couples were hand-in-hand. Chase and Zoey walked just enjoy each other's silence. Zoey was so overjoyed. A new niece. She was still reeling from the shock, as was Logan. Michael and Nicole walked, until Nicole got an idea, which was rare even for her. She was too tired, even to flap her wings to PCA. They were a far way off, anyway.

"Everybody stop!" Nicole screamed. "I have an idea."

"Oh, wow. Alert the press. Nicole just had an idea," Dana said, sarcastically. Zoey threw her a warning look for making jabs at Nicole again. Nicole wasn't stupid…she was just slow…

"Ok. What Nicole?" Zoey asked.

"Can't we just, like teleport ourselves to PCA? It's not that far anyway. I'm even too tired to flap my wings there. So can we? Pleeease?" Nicole begged.

"Oh, come on. That's…brilliant," Chase said, actually surprised.

Nicole flipped her hair off her shoulder, and smiled off her shoulder. Everyone agreed to do it. They were all exhausted, and just wanted to go back and sleep. They all joined hands and they concentrated. Chase disappeared in a whirlwind of leaves while Zoey, Logan, and Dana were engulfed with water, fire, and darkness. Lastly, Michael and Nicole disappeared in a torrent of air and sparks.

They were on their way to PCA finally. Was everything going to get back to normal?

A/N: I was actually going to stop, because I feel sick, because I'll just keep going until I feel like stopping.


Chase, Zoey, Logan, Dana, Michael and Nicole re-appeared.

They looked around before realizing they were at the PCA basketball court. Logan knew this was it, and if he didn't go to Andy Davis, Andy Davis would come to him. He was totally ready. It was night time. Had they been really gone the entire day? They were alone, while everyone else was at their dorms. Or sleeping.

"Nicole! You're a genius!" Zoey shrieked, hugging her best friend. Dana shrugged.

"The day Nicole has an idea and it doesn't involve a boy. It works."

"Hater!" Nicole screamed at Dana.

"Shut up, Nicole!" she screamed back.

"NO, YOU!"

Dana was already pissed off because of Andy and Logan, and she didn't have the patience to deal with Nicole.

"I suggest you shut up before I rip out your hair, Bristow! Then, I wouldn't have to deal with that goddamn hair dryer every FUCKING MORNING!" Dana threatened through narrowed eyes. She started to go for Nicole, but Logan held her back, and she relaxed…a little.

They were all glad to be back, when they heard evil laughter from behind. Logan growled, and clenched his fists as they shook with anger. He narrowed his eyes, as a red glow surrounded him.

He hoped it wasn't who he thought it was because if it was, there would be hell to pay, and he would be a dead man.

Logan turned around, while everyone's eyes went wide.

"You…"


A/N: Dun! Dun! Dun!

Who did everyone see, and why is Logan is all riled up? I think we all know the answer to that. I decided to put that Nicole/Dana argument for good measure. Yep, so Chapter 29, is done, and we just found out some baby news. I was just making that up as I go.

I was watching the episode Bad Girl on You Tube yesterday, and Dustin just HAD to stop Chase and Zoey from kissing! Grr… Michael and Logan in trash bags…hehe… funny…

"I'll bleed, and you talk. What's up?" –Chase …priceless line right there…I was watching the very first episode on You Tube too…

Ok, I've rambled again. Ok, back to business. If you want the 30th chapter you know the drill. Leave some of those lovely reviews, and thanks to the 184 reviews I've already received. I'm hoping to make it to 200 reviews and get the sequel up.

Thanks for reviewing already. You guys rock!
