The Power Of Dreams Chapter 3, a wizards of waverly place fanfic

Chapter 3: Right here in my heart

Sometimes I wanna scream
Sometimes I'm in between
Heaven and Hell
Sometimes I wanna cry
Sometimes I feel that I
Can't take it anymore

But right here in my heart
There's a song I sing for you
Right here in my heart
Your love still gets me through
And all I feel
And all I know
We will find another way
'Cause right here in my heart
Is where you stay

I know you're hearing me
I know you're feeling me
Always touching you now
And I don't want to fly
And be right by your side
I'm calling your name

If only you were here now
If only you were here
'Cause you gave me carousels
So many magic spells

I'm missing you now

'I miss you Mason. Won't you come back to me?' Alex thought miserably as she lay in her bed the next morning. 'I miss you stopping by every morning to wake me up and walk me to school. We'd have breakfast together before we left. Then we'd get to my locker and you would push me up against it and kiss me passionately. And – Oh snap out of it Alex,' she scolded herself. 'You're acting like some kind of wimp whose life revolves around her man. I will get Mason back, I will walk to school with him, I will be kissed by him again and, most importantly, I will not be a sap!'

With her mental tantrum over done with, Alex rose from her bed and got ready for her day.

"Morning," she said as she walked into the sandwich shop.

She received numerous replies from her various family members and Harper, mostly positive except from a "Would you shut up? I'm working here!" from Justin who had finally come out of his room and was doing his Winter holiday homework early.

"So what's the plan for today Harper?" Alex asked her best friend who was at the counter looking as merry as she usually was.

"Wizard class, that's what," Jerry answered his daughter. "You need be tested for the other 2 powers. So come on, into the lair."

"What? But dad I'm doing my homework!" Justin protested, like the nerd that he was (as Alex would say). Jerry only rolled his eyes and motioned for Justin to follow.

Once they were all in the lair, Jerry began his speech.

"Well kids, yesterday we found out that Alex was one of the special wizards with the power to create force fields. Today I'm going to test you for the power of molecular speed control & telekinesis."

"First, we'll see if you can control molecules. We'll begin with freezing. You'll each receive a tennis ball. I want you to throw it in the air, concentrate on it and make a forward motion with your hands."

The 3 wizards did as instructed but to no avail. Jerry sighed and had them try again.

By the third try Alex was incredibly frustrated. "Why isn't this working? This was supposed to be my chance to save Mason! For God's sake!"

Alex finished her rant with an angry and dramatic wave of her hands that resulted in the coffee table being blown to pieces.

Jerry's eyes widened as he saw the coffee table combust and fall to pieces. "Alex," he began, but Alex was too startled by what she had done that she got scared and turned to him quickly and repeated her action. This time however, Jerry didn't explode, he froze in his position.

"Dad? Dad? Dad are you alright?"

"Way to go Alex! You froze Dad for who knows how long!" Justin snapped angrily. Truth be told he wasn't too concerned about his father as he knew Alex's special powers had only just developed 2 days ago, at the first full moon after her 15th Birthday. This meant that they weren't that strong, and Dad would unfreeze soon (not that he would tell her that particular piece of information), but would grow rapidly as the time passed.

He was just Jealous. Jealous of Alex's natural skills when it came to magic, of her special abilities and of how everything was so easy for her.

"Just shut up and help me unfreeze him! Should I just wave my hands again?"

"No! Justin exclaimed. "You might blow him up!"

Alex winced. She hadn't thought of that. "So what do we do?"

"We? There is no 'we'. This is your mess."

Just then, Max, who was messing around with their frozen dad, solved the problem by tripping over one of the tennis balls and falling onto his frozen father. Alex saw this and instinctively reached out with her hand. She unfroze her father in time for both him and Max to drop to the ground.

As her father got back on his feet and dusted himself off, Alex winced again. She was going to get in so much trouble for this. Instead, however, he flashed Alex a proud smile.

"You did it!" he exclaimed. "My daughter could be a Chosen One!"

Jerry rushed over to his daughter and gave her a big hug.

Justin cleared his throat to interrupt the father/daughter moment. "Umm dad? Don't we have another power to test for?"

"Of course! We were just taking a small break!"

Jerry returned to the center of the room to continue his lesson. "Okay, now it's time for telekinesis. There's two ways you can access this power; you can channel it through your hands or through your eyes."

"I want you to take turns to try to move the sofa."

Max was first. He stepped forward, turned to the sofa and outstretched his arms and squinted his eyes, but to no avail. Justin repeated the task to the same result as Max.

When it was her turn, Alex stepped forward and closed her eyes. 'This is it,' she thought as she outstretched her hands. Unfortunately, nothing happened. She tried squinting her eyes but that didn't work either. 'I can't believe this…I got my hopes up and tried but I failed? How does that work out? This was supposed to be my chance to save Mason! Damn it! How the hell did it come to this?'

Jerry watched sadly as tears began to well up in his daughter's eyes. He was no fool; it was apparent that she was silently falling apart. He had been happy with the possibility that his daughter was a Chosen One but all he really cared about was his daughter's happiness. He approached his daughter, intending to offer her some comfort, but his attention was diverted by the snort that came from his eldest son.

That's right. Justin actually had the nerve to snort at his sister's pending breakdown.

"Well what do you know? Little miss Alex can't handle failure. Did you actually think you would be a Chosen one?" he mocked.

Jerry's eyes flashed in alarm. In the state Alex was in he feared she might snap because of those words, and he was going to have a go at his son for them later. Instead however, she growled.

"Cut the crap Justin! I can't deal with you right now!" she yelled as she turned around with such anger, determination and power that it actually scared all the boys in the room. As she turned she outstretched her arm to point at Justin but in doing so; she released a wave of energy that sent him flying into the wall behind him.

Luckily, he wasn't injured; just a little shocked.

Alex however was more than shocked. She was beaming. "I did it! Dad. I did it! I'm a chosen wizard! I'm a chosen Wizard!"

Alex launched herself onto her father wrapping her arms around him and squeezing him tightly. She squealed loudly, before letting go and launching herself at her little brother.

When she let go, Theresa Russo and Harper entered the lair.

"What's going on? We heard screaming then squealing," Theresa asked her husband.

Jerry quickly launched into an explanation about Chosen Wizards, special powers and how Alex was a Chosen Wizard.

That night Theresa made a huge and delicious dinner to celebrate Alex's big day. Uncle Kelbo and Aunt Meghan, who upon hearing the news couldn't refuse the invite (though things were a little tense between her and her brothers), both came. Everyone was there.

Everyone except for Justin.

So what do you think? I hope you liked it! It would have made my week even better! I still can't believe how much I've improved my writing. It used to take me at least a few days to write a chapter but this one took me less than 4 hours.

Don't be too harsh on Justin. He's going through a lot and as a result is acting up.

BTW, if any of you are fans of Camp Rock and Nate/Mitchie, I recommend that you read my new story 'In This Life'.

Well that's all for now. Please review.
