Chapter 4:
There our heroes were staring up at the mighty Leviathan as she looked down at them.
'I'll ask again!', the Leviathan said telepathically. 'Who dares disturb my slumber?'
"Mighty, Leviathan!", Water said as he landed in front of her along with Fire and Air. "I am Water! I have come a long way to seek your power! Now that I have found you, I ask, no demand that you grant me some of your power!"
'You dare demand that I give you some of my power, after you bring that creature from another world?', the Leviathan questioned as she glared at Water and his two friends. 'And you two must be his friends, Fire and Air! I know of you three! Phoenix told me all about you three and what you're planning! And like Phoenix and Pegasus, I deem you, Water, not worthy of having some of my power!'
"If I can't have some of your power, then they won't either!", Water snapped as he shot a powerful streak of water at Irma.
The Leviathan then used her tail to block the attack!
'Begone, before I sent you and your friends to a very dark place!', Leviathan said as she glared at Water.
"This isn't over!", Fire said as he teleported away.
"Count on it!", Water said as he teleported away.
"We'll meet again, fools!", Air snapped before teleporting away.
"Well, that was quick.", Stephen said as he and Matt jumped off of the stone block they were on.
Stephen then ran up to Irma and hugged her.
"I'm glad you're okay Irma.", Steohen said as he held her in his arms.
"Same with you.", Irma said as she returned the hug.
'As touching as this all is, I do believe that you are here for a reason, Water Guardian.', Leviathan said to Irma. 'And I am ready to give you and one other some of my power.'
"Thank you.", Irma said as she and Stephen stepped forward.
The Leviathan looked at Stephen and shook her head.
'I am sorry, young one.', Leviathan said to Stephen. 'Your heart is brave and noble, but I can not give you some of my power.'
"What?", Irma questioned in shock.
'His heart is in the right place.', Leviathan said. 'But unlike you, he isn't as one with water like you are. I am sorry.'
"Then who is?", Hay Lin asked.
'This one.', Leviathan said as she looked at Peter.
"Me?", Peter questioned.
'Yes.', Leviathan said. 'Your thoughts show me that you love the ocean and love to, as you call it, surf it's waves. Not to mention the courage you showed when you helped freed the Water Guardian from that creature's hold."
"Well yeah, but...", Peter began to say.
'You were hoping to be partnered with the Earth Guardian.', Leviathan said surprising Peter and Cornelia. 'I'm sorry young one, but you are more of a water warrior.'
"It's okay, Peter.", Cornelia said. "If this is what your meant for, then it's what your meant for."
"Are you okay with this, Stephen?", Irma asked her boyfriend.
"I wish it was me that had the same powers like you.", Stephen said. "But if it's not me, then I'm glad it's a friend."
"Thanks man.", Peter said.
Irma then went up to Stephen and kissed him.
"You're the best.", Irma said smiling.
'Let us begin, shall we.', Leviathan said as Irma and Peter walked up to the Leviathan.
The Leviathan then brought her wings over Irma and Peter. A light shined from under the wings. Seconds later, Leviathan brought her wings up.
'It is done.', Leviathan said as she curled up her body. 'Now I must go to another of my lairs. Farewell, young warriors. And good luck with the rest of your journey.'
The Leviathan then teleported away. The others then walked up to Irma and Peter.
"So, when does the change happen?", Irma asked.
"In a few seconds.", Eric said.
"Aaaaah!, Irma yelled as she dropped to her knees while holding her stomach.
"Aaaarrrrgh!", Peter said as he dropped to one knee.
"Irma!", Stephen yelled.
"Peter!", Taranee and Cornelia shouted.
Just then, Peter and Irma were covered in balls of water. Seconds later, the balls of water dropped showing them in their Legend forms. Angelo caught Irma before she fell while Stephen and Matt caught Peter before he fell and hoisted his arms over their shoulders.
"This is going to be a long way back to the bus.", Angelo said.
"No it isn't.", Will said as she pulled out the Heart. "One quick teleporting trip coming up!"
And in a flash, they were gone. Seconds later they were in the magic bus.
"You're back!", Kandor said. "And it seems that you have some of Leviathan's power."
"And now it's time to head back to Kandrakar.", Matt said.
"And I can make that trip easy!", Kandor said as he pulled a lever which opened a fold to Kandrakar in front of the bus.
"Cool!", Hay Lin said as Kandor drove the bus through the fold.
"This job gets more interesting everyday!", Will said as the fold closed behind them.
A while later...
"Aw, man!", Irma said as she woke up. "What a day!"
"You're telling me!", Peter said as he woke up.
Both of them sat up in the beds they were in and turned to look at each other.
"I-Irma?", Peter questioned as he looked at Irma.
"P-Peter?", Irma questioned as she looked at Peter.
They both got out of their beds and ran to see themselves in the mirror that was in the room.
"Whoa!", they both said as they got a look at themselves.
There Irma was with the light blue wings like Leviathan. But like Taranee and Hay Lin, that wasn't all. First there was her hair that she too grabbed a thing of to make sure that it was real. Now her hair was the way it was in her Guardian form. But now her hair was light blue with pinks streaks in it. Instead of having a shirt, that she thought she had after checking it, she found that she had a blue one-piece swimsuit. And on the front of her swimsuit she had a black silhouette of the Leviathan on it, with the Kandrakar symbol for water in the middle of the silhouette. As well as space in the back for her wings. The finger-less gloves she wore were still black. Over the bottom half of her swimsuit she wore a pink mini-skirt, like her old Guardian form, that had the Kandrakar symbol for water on it in pink. On the small of her back was a large pink bow with the tail going past her knees. Her stockings, that were now like Hay Lin's, were blue and pink. She now had blue boots that went up to the bottom of her knees.
As for Peter. He was a bit older looking, maybe in his late teens. His hair was now blue like she saw earlier. On his wrist were blue armbands with the Kandrakar symbol of water on them. Like Angelo and Eric, Peter wore a white sleeveless shirt with a battle harness over it. There was a silhouette of the Leviathan on the chest piece of the harness with the Kandrakar symbol of water in the silhouette of the Leviathan. He had blue shorts that went down just past his knees on with blue boots and a black belt. And in front of his shorts hung a white cloth that went down to his knees. On the cloth was the Kandrakar symbol for water.
"This isn't so bad.", Peter said as he flexed a muscle.
"I can deal with the fact that I'm wearing a swimsuit. I can even deal with the fact that I'm wearing what looks like the mini-skirt from my old Guardian look.", Irma said. "But why the heck do I have a bow? And why is it PINK?"
"I think it looks kind of cute on you.", Peter teased.
"Don't you start!", Irma said as she walked out of the room.
"Well this should be fun.", Peter said as he followed behind Irma.
Moments later they were at the doors of the training grounds. Standing by the doors was Cornelia who was pacing back and forth.
"Cornelia?", Peter questioned as he walked up to her.
"Peter!", Cornelia yelled happily as she ran up to him and hugged him.
"I'm happy to see you too.", Peter said as he returned the hug. "I must look pretty weird, huh?"
"A little.", Cornelia said as touched the side of his face with a smile. "But I can get use to it."
Cornelia then kissed Peter, which he returned. Irma, on the other hand, was still a bit ticked about the bow, as she kicked the doors open, surprising the others that were inside.
"What's her deal?", Matt questioned.
"She's just mad about having a bow with her Legend Form.", Peter said.
"Aaaaaaw!", Cornelia said in a teasing tone. "But you look so cute with your cute wittle bow."
"She's going to get as much mileage as she can out of this, isn't she?", Angelo asked Will.
"Oh yeah!", Will said with a grin.
"Don't start with me, Corny!", Irma snapped.
"Don't call me Corny, Bow-girl!", Cornelia countered.
"That's enough, you two.", Yan Lin said. "You all need to work together to get to the last two Beast of Legend."
"I know.", Irma said. "It's just, why does my Legend form have this?"
Irma then turned to the side and pointed to the large bow on the back of her outfit.
"I have a theory about that.", Yan Lin said.
"What theory, Grandma?", Hay Lin asked her grandmother.
"I believe that your Legend forms shows a side of you that you never thought you had.", Yan Lin said. "At least the girl's Legend forms that is."
"That actually makes sense.", Matt said.
"It does?", Taranaa, Hay Lin, and Irma questioned.
"Yeah, it does.", Angelo said getting everyones attention. "Think about Hay Lin's Legend form."
"What about my Legend form?", Hay Lin questioned.
"It's nothing bad, Hay Lin.", Angelo said. "It's just that it makes you look formal, yet ready to kick butt."
"That's what I thought when I first saw it!", Hay Lin said.
"And what about mine?", Irma asked with her hands on her hips.
"That you can kick butt and be a bit formal while doing it.", Will suggested.
"Makes sense.", Hay Lin said. "I mean, your Guardian form is the same way."
"Yeah but it's not so girlly!", Irma said.
"And your Legend form is.", Taranee said. "I remember you telling me one time that you like how hot you look in you Guardian form. But your Legend form makes you look more cute."
"Just like your Legend form makes you look really hot!", Irma said with a smirk. "Isn't that right, Angelo?"
"Nice try, Irma.", Angelo said. "But Taranee looks good to me as herself, in her Guardian form, and in her Legend form."
"Thank you.", Taranee said before kissing Angelo on his cheek.
"But her Legend form show her more sexy side.", Cornelia said.
"So, how come the guy's Legend form look almost the same?", Cornelia asked.
"Because unlike two ladies here, who will remain nameless, we guys aren't all into fashion.", Angelo said getting a laugh out of Will, Taranee, and Hay Lin.
"Is he talking about us?", Cornelia asked Irma.
"Oh, I think he is!", Irma said.
"I only speak the truth.", Angelo said with an innocent look.
"I got your truth!", Irma said as she began to chase Angelo.
"Catch me if you can, Lair!", Angelo teased as he ran from Irma.
"It's nice to know that some things never change.", Will said as she and the others watched Irma chase Angelo around.
"And now, Peter. It is time to unlock your Battle Legend form.", Yan Lin said as she touched the chest plate on his battle harness.
Once she touched his cheste plate, a whirlpool of water formed at Peter's feet and began to rise up to his head. Once it past his head, it evaporated. Everyone then saw Peter's Battle Legend form.
"Heeeeeello!", Cornelia said as she got a good look at it.
Under his battle harness was a silverish, long sleeve chain-mail shirt with his white sleeve-less shirt under that, just like Angelo and Eric. On the back of them was room for his wings to stick out. On his shoulders were silver round shoulder pads and on his wrist were silver knuckle gauntlets with the Kandrakar symbol for water on them. On his head was a blue headband with a rectangle metal plate on the front with a Leviathan symbol carved into it. And over his shins were silver greaves with the Kandrakar symbol for water on them.
"This is pretty cool!", Peter said. "Now how do I change back? Oh yeah!"
Peter then closed his eyes and focused on being himself. He then felt himself changed back into his Legend form and then back to himself. Peter then looked at his right wrist to see that he had a metal wristband with a symbol of the Leviathan on it.
"Nicely done.", Yan Lin said.
"After seeing Eric and Angelo do it enough times, changing back doesn't seem so hard.", Peter said as Angelo ran past them with Irma right behind him.
"A little slow there, Irma!", Angelo teased.
"Get back here!", Irma demanded.
Suddenly, Stephen stepped in front of Irma stopping her in her tracks.
"I think you look great.", Stephen said before he kissed Irma putting a smile on her face as she changed back to her Guardian form and then back to herself.
Irma then saw that she had the same kind of wristband like Peter.
"That's three Beast of Legend down and two to go.", Irma said as she looked down at her Leviathan wristband.
"I wonder which one we'll find next.", Matt said.
"Who knows.", Cornelia said. "Hopefully I don't end up having big pink bow with my new look."
"Oh ha, ha!", Irma said. "Very funny! I'll show you Hale!"
"Got to catch me first, Irma!", Cornelia teased as she ran from her.
Everyone began to laugh as the two friends ran around. For now, they would have a little fun, knowing that soon they would have to go searching for one of the Beast of Legend, and have to fight another one of Fire's friends along with the ones they already fought. The battles were far from over, but they knew that they had to stick together and pull through.
A/N: Well, Irma and Peter were given some power by the Leviathan after a hard fought battle and Irma's not to happy with her Legend form. Oh well! She'll have to get used to it if she's to get control of her new powers. But you have to stop and think how Fire and his friends are feeling now that they've lost there chances in getting three of the Beast of Legend to give them some of their power. Wonder what they plan to do next?
