So this is my Sarah/Ethan a.k.a Ethara pairing fan fic. It all starts with one of Benny's "bright ideas". I say "bright ideas" with sarcasm because even though I love Benny he can be idiot. But what's Ethan without Benny idiocy? Anyways this is just part 1 of it, part two shall be up soon (I hope) but I just had to get this out there since it's been forever since I've updated this.

Part I: Benny Messes Up

"Come on Ethan! This might be your only chance at getting a girl like ever!"

"Thanks but no thanks."

"Why not?"

"Well, your history of magic isn't very good for starters."

"So? Your point?"

Ethan sighed. Benny and Ethan were sitting in Benny's bedroom. Ethan sat at Benny's desk in his computer chair and Benny had made himself comfortable on his bed with his spell book in hand.

"My point is, I'm not letting you play Build-A-Girl for me," Ethan said causing Benny to groan.

"You're not seeing the point! It says right here creates the perfect date! You could have your dream girl thanks to me!"

Ethan shook his head, "No way I'm not letting YOU create a girlfriend for me. I have a dream girl."

"Yeah that you're too chicken to kiss even in your dreams!" Benny protested making Ethan to roll his eyes, "Let's face it dude. You're never going to have the guts to ask Sarah out."

"I will too! I'm just waiting for the right time!" Ethan insisted which Benny answered with a snort, "When's that? Year two thousand and never?"

Ethan threw a Rubix Cube at his friend's head which the taller boy dodged just in time.

"Come on dude just try it! And knowing me, the stupid spell probably won't even work."

Ethan sighed once more. It couldn't hurt to try, he thought, the worst it could do is create a totally ugly girl. "Fine let's do it."

About twenty minutes later they had all the stuff they needed laid on the kitchen table. A couple potions and bottles of things Ethan didn't know—or wanted to know—what they were full of taken from Grandma's shelves, one of Jane's old dolls that had dark chocolately brown hair but short and brown eyes like Sarah (that's why Ethan had picked it), and a couple of things Ethan liked written on a slip of paper (video games, Star Wars, Harry Potter etc..). "I think that's all it." Benny declared looking mighty pleased with himself.

"Yeah where do we put it? We don't have a cauldron or anything," Ethan said feeling annoyed. He just wanted to get this over with and watch it not work. "Already taken care of," Benny said pulling a pot out one of the cabinets and putting it on the stove. He turned the knob and after a few clicks the fire started.

"Whatever," Ethan said, "So what now?"

"Well, we just combine all this stuff, say the spell, and out pops a babe," Benny said like it was that simple.

"There's no order or anything?" Ethan asked cautiously.

"No order," His geeky friend replied.

"Are you sure?" Ethan asked not completely convinced.

"Dude just trust me on this," Benny replied already dropping the doll in the bottom of the pot and throwing different liquid and stuff into it as started to bubble and fizz into a misty smoke. Ethan sighed and began adding stuff too, "You know this reminds me of how the Powerpuff Girls were made."

Benny looked at his friend and laughed, "Dude you watch that show?"

"No," the smaller boy replied, "Jane does."

Benny chortled not believing Ethan, "Yeah sure."

"All we need is a Chemical X to ruin this whole thing," Ethan said. And right on queue Ethan saw Benny starting to pour a suspicious purple looking liquid into the pot.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! What is that?" Ethan asked holding an arm out to stop him. Benny looked out the bottle and shrugged, "I don't know." Ethan took the bottle from his clueless pal, "Then you're not putting that in there."

"Why not?" Benny whined, "It's nothing bad."

"You don't know that for sure," Ethan said turning his back to look for something. Seizing this opportunity, Benny snuck a few drops of the dark purple liquid in the mix and it immediately changed from a beautiful pink and green color and sweet smelling scent to a dark blood red color that stunk up the whole room like something sinister and evil. The smoke grew more and more until it engulfed the whole room in its foul stench and creepy color. Ethan turned around and tried to wave the smoke from his face, "Benny! What did you do?"

"Nothing!" Benny lied immediately through a coughing fit, "I might have added that stuff you told me not to."

"Benny! I told you that stuff was bad news!" Ethan cried through his own coughing fit. The black smoke ate at his lungs and burned his throat. Then there was a flash off bright red light and both boys swore they heard a girlish but evil laugh.

"Quick Benny, try the spell!" Ethan exclaimed.

Benny fumbled through his pockets for the slip of paper he had written the spell on, once he got it he tried to read through the smoke and while he coughed he recited the spell though it could barely be heard in the noise. There was a shrill of laughter and a very bright flash of red light. The boys covered their eyes as the ball of light almost fire like erupted from pot and flew out the open window into the dark night. The smoke evaporated and the room looked as if nothing happened.

Ethan looked around and then looked accusingly to Benny, "I told you it wouldn't work! You almost killed us!"

Benny uncovered his face still coughing and trying to catch his breath, "I'm—sorry—E! I was really trying to help."

Ethan just shook his head and grabbed his backpack, "I'm going home. See you tomorrow."

Benny waved sadly after his friend, "See ya, E."

The morning before the bell rang for class to start Ethan and Benny stood at their lockers as usual. "I wonder what happened to that ball that escaped," Benny wondered aloud. Ethan shrugged and opened his locker, "I don't know and I don't care."

"Look Ethan, are you still mad about last night—"

"I'm not mad Benny," Ethan insisted tiredly. He wasn't exactly sure what had happened last night, nor did he really want to know.

"But you sound mad. I didn't mean to—"

"Hey guys."

Both boys turned to see Sarah walking down the hall to them. Ethan's sour mood instantly melted and his nervous self came back whenever Sarah was around, "H-hi Sarah."

"Hey Sarah," Benny said in his normal tine since he wasn't the one crushing on Sarah, "What's up?"

"Nothing. You seen Erica?" The brunette asked, both boys shook their heads. Sarah sighed and leaned against the locker next to Ethan's with her arms folded. "Something wrong Sarah?" Ethan asked taking this chance to start a conversation. Sarah shook her head sadly, "I'm just worried about Erica you know. It's that time of the month."

"Eww," Benny said scrunching up his nose. Sarah rolled her eyes, "Not that time, the time where she gets all blood crazy!"

"But Erica's always blood crazy," Ethan stated.

"I know! But this is worse than usual," Sarah said looking down the hall.

"What makes it so w—"

"Excuse me you're on my locker."

The three teens turned to look at the person who had spoken. There was a girl with long straight brown and red hair. She had a mocha skin tone a bit darker than Sarah's. Her eyes were strange, they were pitch black with almost a tinge of red and they were staring right at Sarah. She had a smile that spelled even spelled fake but the only one who didn't see it, was Ethan.

"Excuse me," The girl said again a little harsher.

"Oh sorry," The fledgling said stepping aside.

The girl opened her locker which was right in between Benny and an awestruck Ethan who stood his eyes wide and gaping. "Is-Is that a Star Wars shirt?" The girl's eyes turned to stare at Ethan up and down before smiling, "Not just any Star Wars shirt, it's an episode one vintage shirt, one of the first 100 ever manufactured." She closed her locker and spun around slapping Benny and Sarah in the face with her hair and ignoring their spits and shouts. She stuck her hand out to the boy, "I'm Sierra, what's your name?"

Ethan took her hand in his, "I'm E—" But he was cut of by a vision. There was a pot, a flash of bright light, and then Sierra was emerging off the ground covered in dirt with a grin. She turned right in the direction of Ethan's vision and blew a kiss. Her head whipped around and their her mouth opened as if to scream. The vision then abruptly ended and he was staring at a puzzled looking Sierra in her bright Green Lantern green eyes. His all time favorite color. "Are you alright?" Ethan blushed a little as he noticed he was staring at her, "I-I'm fine." Sierra giggled and made Ethan's heart flutter. What was wrong with him, he usually only felt like this with—what was her name? Sandra? Sa—Sierra? Oh never mind. "Hey so, I'm new here. Want to show me around a bit?" Sierra asked. "Of course!" Ethan said a bit too eagerly and then he tried to act cool and shrugged his shoulders, "I mean sure why not." Sierra laughed and then with Ethan's hand in hers brushed past a shocked looking Benny and an angry looking Sarah, but not before looking Sarah up and down and smirking, mouthing what looked like, 'I'll win."

"Benny, what just happened?" Sarah asked with pure hatred in her voice as she watched Sierra walk away with Ethan.

"Ethan got a girl," Benny said with a bright grin, "Looks like the potion worked after all."

"Did you notice how she looked at me? And how dark her eyes looked? And how she smirked at me? And how she just happens to like Star Wars?" Sarah turned slowly to look at Benny with accusation in her eyes and her voice, "Wait potion? What did you do?" Benny's grin faded and he backed away, "Nothing! Well something! I might have created a babe, that babe, for Ethan."

"Benny!" Sarah screamed and Benny cringed, "He helped!"

Sarah crossed her arms and looked sadly down the hallway Sierra and Ethan had disappeared down. "No, she's not going to win," Sarah said. "Win what? Who's winning what? Are there prizes involved? Anything but pencils, I hate getting pencils." Benny asked, clearly confused and getting off topic. The bell rang and Sarah turned to the confused boy, "Keep an eye on that Sierra chick. I don't trust her."

"Ohh, I sense jealousy," Benny smirked, "Sarah can't take a little competition?"

The fledgling hissed and barred her fangs at the spell caster, "Shut up and just do what I said! Got it?" Benny's whole attitude changed, "Got it! Shut up and watch Ethan and his new babe Sierra, got it." Sarah turned at stomped down, her heels clacking loudly in the almost deserted hallway.

"Wow, you've got not one, but two babes fighting for your love," Another grin formed on the spell casters face, "Way to go, E!"

So that's my part one. Sierra's got Ethan, Ethan's confused and forgetting about Sarah in the presence of Sierra. Sarah is jealous and Benny thinks that Ethan's finally got a girlfriend.

A little clarification: Sierra's eyes only look green to Ethan which I'll explain why later in the story but to everyone else they look pitch black with specks of red.

So, let me know what you think and I'm still looking for pairings you want or story ideas!
