Chapter Five: Vision

"Get up Kyle..Kyle..Kyle!" screamed a voice.

As Kyle regained consciousness, he arose to a teary Fiona.

"I'm o.k Fiona, no need to tear up." said Kyle as Fiona hugged him with relief.

"I'm glad you're o.k." said Fiona. "It was just..you were the only still out after what happened."

"That reminds me." said Rudy. "Where are we, from what I recall, a barrier trapped us, then we passed out."

"So, are we like dead?" asked a worried Whyatt.

"No you're not dead I assure you." said a voice from the distance startling the group as five odd looking creatures appeared before them."

"Who, or what, are you?" asked a startled Krista.

"We are part of the Geo Guardians." said one of the creatures. "My name is Flame."

"What are Geo Guardians?" asked Kyle as Flame prepared to explain.

"Not long ago, on a different planet called Elementia, resided the powerful Geo Stones, responsible for creation and prosperity on Elementia. To protect the stones from evil, seven of our kind, known as Rinji, were chosen to defend these stones, we became the Geo Guardians."

"So these rocks are called Geo Stones." said Fiona as she reached out for her stone, but it wasn't there.

"Oh you won't find them." laughed Flame. "You're all having a vision."

"A vision!" said the five with disbelief.

"Yes, a vision." answered Flame. "When the barrier knocked you out, we used our powers to transport your consciousness' inside the Geo Stones, like giving a vision to your mind."

"So technically." added one of the other Rinji. "You're all still in the park, out cold, but there's a barrier to protect your bodies from outside forces."

"Oh, I almost forgot." said Kyle. "We haven't introduced ourselves."

Then the five proceeded to acquaint themselves.

"Hello." began Kyle. "My name is Kyle Carsly."

"I'm Whyatt Qwill and this is my sister, Fiona."

"Hello all, my name is Krista Cane."

"Last, but certainly not least, I'm Rudy Matel."

"It's good to meet you all." replied Flame.

"Well as you heard before, my name is Flame, guardian of Kyle's Red X stone."

"I'm Wave, guardian of young Whyatt's Blue oval stone."

"My name is Bolt, and I'm the guardian of Fiona's Yellow triangle stone."

"Hi, I'm Gayle, I guard Krista's Pink square stone."

"Finally, I'm Quake, defender of Rudy's Green diamond stone."

"Well, now that we're all acquainted." said Whyatt. "Can I ask a few questions."

"Sure." replied Wave. "Ask away."

"O.k then." began Whyatt. "Why aren't you all on Elementia? If your the Geo Guardians, why aren't you guarding the stones? And why have you given us this vision?"

"Very good questions." replied Wave. "Would you like to explain Flame."

"O.k, I tell what happened." said Flame.

"It was only two years ago, the seven of us, back when we were seven, have been enjoying a ten-year peace, that was until a multi-world conqueror by the name of Zakar came to take the stones. We tried to stop him, but it was no use and he quickly defeated us. As Zakar neared the stones, we initiated "Final Protocol" in which we transformed into beams of energy, and trapped ourselves inside the stones, and from within them, we brought them to Earth, as we entered the planet's atmosphere, we scattered, but not far away, in differents parts of the region. But unfortunately, doing Final Protocol trapped us in the stones for eternity, and the worse part of it is that Elementia can only survive up to three years after the stones left the atmosphere, and this is the final year."

"Thanks for explaining." said Rudy. "But that still leaves one question unanswered."

"Oh really, and what's that?" asked Quake.

"Why have you given us this vision?" asked Whyatt.

"Ah yes." replied Flame. "As I said before, the usage of Final Protocol trapped us within the stones, and we've chosen you to defend the stones now."

"But, I'll ask you now." said Flame with a serious tone. "Will you become the new Geo Guardians. If you except, you'll be given special weapons and abilities, but if you refuse, leave your Geo Stone here and head back to your daily lives. It's your choice."

"O.k, I'm in." said a serious Kyle. "I'm always up for an adventure."

"That makes two." added Whyatt.

"We're in as well." continued Krista and Rudy.

"Not me." said Fiona, shocking everybody."

"Why not Fiona?" asked Krista.

"My dad just got back from his trip, and if I accept, I can't spend time with him, and if this takes up all the time he's here for, he'll leave again." replied Fiona.

As she finished, Whyatt came up to her and slapped her in the face.

"How can you say something like that!" yelled an angered Whyatt.

"What are you talking about?" asked Fiona as she put her hand up to where her face was slapped.

"I want to spend time with dad too, but if Zakar gets the stones, nobody is safe, including dad, is that what you want." replied Whyatt as he calmed down.

"I'm in then." said Fiona with a look of realization on her face.

"Good." said Bolt. "If Fiona refused, I'd be partnerless."

Then suddenly the area around the five got dark, and they awoke back in the park.

"Wow." said Rudy. "Was that all real?"

"Yeah, it was real." said Fiona. "My face is still red from Whyatt slapping me."

"Oh, sorry about that sis." apologized Whyatt.

"Don't be." replied Fiona. "You helped me see the bigger picture, good going little bro."

"Time for another adventure!" screamed Kyle.
