Chapter 21: The Guardians Revealed
Will ran out of the building and transformed before anyone could see her and she flew off toward her mothers to talk to Matt. After a bit of flying, she slapped herself and then teletransported there instead. When she arrived a few seconds later, Matt wasn't there and neither was anyone else. She had one more idea and she teletransported to the Silver Dragon and when she arrived, she saw Matt put something down. "Matt." Matt jumped out of his seat and ran over to her. "Matt, I can't stay long, I have something to take care of." She gave him a quick kiss. "I'll explain everything later." She quickly teletransported away to who knows where.
Just after she left, reporters came into the building. "Matt Olson, how do you feel knowing that your wife escaped from jail?" One of the reporters asked. Matt just waved the question off just to get another question. "Why would she escape from jail and why would she kill so many people, after all she has always been a good citizen?"
This got Matt angry but then he gave a small smirk. "She has never killed a person in her life and I know she hasn't because the day those people died, she was with us. Second of all, the only reason why she would ever escape is because she is innocent and has gone to prove it." Matt had hoped that they would give up on questions but then again, he knew that wouldn't happen.
The reporters were just about to ask another question when the cops arrived. "Matt Olson, when you see your wife, call us." The cop demanded but Matt just laughed. "What is so funny?"
"The fact that you think that you can actually hold her is hysterical. You could put her in a straight jacket and lock her up in a twenty foot thick steel cage and she would still escape. Turning her in would be pointless as well, because she won't stop until she has proven herself innocent. Besides, you wouldn't be able to catch her if you wanted to." Matt smirked the whole time he talked. "I saw her but where she is now is a complete mystery. She could be anywhere right now." Matt then got angry. "So I suggest you take yourselves and get out." Matt pushed everyone back and then slammed the door in there faces. Matt rubbed his temples and sat down with a headache.
Will teletransported miles away from the Silver Dragon and decided to rest. "All this transporting is exhausting." Will sat down on a rock and relaxed.
Back in the Silver Dragon, Mindy just walked in. "Matt, I hear that Will escaped from jail." Just when Matt thought that he could relax, Mindy said something. "I saw all the reporters and the cops, are you ok?"
Matt had no desire to talk to Mindy right now. "Mindy, leave now or I can force you to."
Taranee saw this turning bad real quickly and she helped Matt out of the chair and took him down to the basement. Irma and the others figured out what Taranee had in mind and made a barrier so Mindy wouldn't follow them down.
After about thirty minutes of resting, Will got up and started walking around to help her think but she couldn't figure out where Nerissa could possibly be. Just then, the Heart of Kandrakhar started glowing and lifted up into the air. In it was a picture of Nerissa holding a knife to someone's throat but she couldn't make out whom. She got closer to see if she could tell and a closer look revealed it to be Christine. Will teletransported to the Silver Dragons basement. "Matt, we have a problem."
"Other then the current one we're dealing with now." Matt said somewhat irritably and Will couldn't blame him.
"It's Nerissa." Right as she said this, the girls had just come downstairs while the boys held off Mindy. "Let's get there but let's not go in guardian form because there are people everywhere. We are going to my collage." Will grabbed onto Matt and they all disappeared. When they arrived, they found themselves in an alley near bye. They ran over to where Nerissa is. "Nerissa, you're going down for good this time around."
"Go ahead Will and transform, the longer you wait the closer my knife gets to your friend."
Will had no idea what to do at this point, she couldn't let her friend get killed but she couldn't reveal herself to everyone around. Just then a hand was put on her shoulder. Will turned her head and saw Matt there nodding. "Ok let's do this."
Matt had the idea of using his glamour and Will caught on but so did Nerissa. "I wouldn't do that dear heart unless you want this innocent girl dead."
Nerissa had them trapped but the girls said to just do it. "Guardians unite." Just as Will said this, the news truck showed up and Nerissa let go of Christine. "Guardians attack." The four other girls went for Nerissa but Nerissa just seemed to quiver in fear for reasons not known to them. "Guardians, stop now." The girls looked confused by this but followed orders seeing how Nerissa wasn't going to do anything anyway. Just then, flashes appeared from everywhere blinding the poor girls. "A trap, of course. Nerissa forced us to reveal ourselves to everyone in the world that is watching the news. This whole thing was a set up. How could I be so stupid." Then the girls went back to their human forms. "Grab Nerissa and take her into a building." The girls ran and then grabbed Nerissa and entered a building with Will and Matt right behind them.
"Everyone now knows who you are and I am perfectly safe." Nerissa chuckled a little.
"Fine whatever, now go admit to everyone that you killed all of those people and framed me." Will said raising her voice. As Taranee sealed up the door.
"I did read about that in the paper. I wish I could take credit for that but I can't. Whoever did that got you good guardian." Nerissa smiled at this.
"Look Nerissa, you can stop playing games, you're the only one that can copy one of us other then Phobos and we all know he is in prison where he belongs. So just admit it."
Nerissa started getting slightly irritated by be accused of this. "I swear on the Heart of Kandrakhar and Meridian that I did not do this guardian." Nerissa said firmly.
"There is nobody else that could do that though. The only other person on earth that wants me gone as much as you is Mindy and she can't morph into anything." Will said thinking aloud.
After hearing this, Nerissa started to think. "Mindy, why does that name sound so familiar." This caught their attention. "I remember hearing that Phobos banished someone for some reason. I think her name was Mindy. I think her last name was Johnson. Something like that."
"You're lucky I don't turn you into Elyon right now. Thanks for the help, we will consider this payment. Let's go everyone." Then the girls' teletransported to the Silver Dragon. They arrived to find Mindy there. "Mindy, your little game is over." Mindy turned around with an evil grin.
