Chapter 8
Daphne's P.O.V
KNOCK! KNOCK! came from the front door. I looked over there, while Pynki buzzed around me. Usually on school days, she stayed in my locket but on weekends like today, she was allowed to come out to play. I stood up, and went to open the door since Isabella and Bridgette ,who were closest to the door, were still sleeping.
"Hey. What's up?" I asked the girl who stood at the door.
"Dilivery for um...Daphne Nelson, Isabella Rossi, Lily Summers, Kairi Jones and Bridgette Smith. Actually, for everybody in this room." She smiled, pointed to the pile of boxes beside her and left down the hall. I sighed, picking up the boxes. I placed Izzie and Bridge's boxes at the feet of their bed while placing Kairi's and Lily's on top of their beds. They were in the bathroom, choosing what makeup to wear and how to do their hair. Weird. I know.
I sat down on my own bed and opened the box up. Pynki landed on my shoulder and watched too. A letter was on top so I tore it open to read.
Dear Daphne,
It's been forever since we last saw you. At least, it feels like forever! How we really really miss you! It suddenly seems so quiet in our house, without you here. Your cousins miss you too. They hate their new babysitter. Anyway, it took us a while to send you this, because ABA never left an address to send mail too. Finally we found that bus you took over, and the bus driver generously helped us by sending you this from us. In the box we've placed a couple of your CDs and a new one from the Canada's Got Talent winner, Dancing Diamond! No one really knows her name, except that her initials are C.K. Anyway, she's only 11 and is an awesome dancer/singer. Mostly she dances though. Anyway, we can't wait to see you!!! When will you be back?
With lots of phileos,
Mommy and Daddy 3
I smiled. It has been a long time since I have called Mom mommy but still, it was nice to hear from them. And phileos was a word that i've treasured ever since I read about it last year. It could mean lots of love from parents to children or vice versa or it could mean lots of love from friends. Either way, it means lots of love.
I opened the rest of the box, and the CDs came tumbling out. I picked up the black one with pink decorations all over it, staring a girl who did NOT look 11, smiling broadly. The title of the cover was, Dancing Diamond. Of course.
"Hey, whatcha got there?" Lily asked as she came out of the washroom in shorts and a tank top. Her hair was up in a regular ponytail.
"I see you chose to wear your hair the normal way. Why would you spend an HOUR in the bathroom for that, eh?? And this is a new CD from Dancing Diamond, this girl who won the Canada's Got Talentshow back at home. Human stuff you wouldn't understand." I placed the CDs my desk and brushed through my hair once more.
"Oh, kool. Anyway, I'll wake up Iz and Bridge." Lily walked over to Bridgette's bed first. She grabbed the pillow from underneath Bridge and slammed Bridgette's head with it. Bridgy woke up screaming. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! I'M GETTING ATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTAAAAAAAAAACCCCCCCKKKKKKKEEEEEEDDDDDDDDD!"
I laughed as Lily went over to Isabella's bed, smiling. She slammed the pillow over Iz but all Isabella did was go, "huh?"
"Well, you got one of two." Kairi said as she came out of the washroom. Her hair was down, clipped up nicely. She looked much different then her usual style.
"Awwh...is that for Jason?" I asked, winking.
She blushed deeply. "No. I just wanted to try out a new style..." she bit her lip then blurted, "Do you think he'll like it?"
I giggled. "Of course! You're soo cute."
Once the rest of the girls were done and the pixies were all out and flying around, we left for Lily's house.
I groaned. "Imma be a loner."
"What do you mean?" Lily asked as we left the school building.
"Well...you know...the thing with Dylan...and everyone else has...like a guy..." I mumbled, embarrassed.
"Don't worry. I won't leave you for anyone!" Bridgette said. She slung her arm around my shoulders.
"Hey guys." Todd said as the guys showed up.
"Todd!" She cried, running to give him a hug.
"She said she wouldn't leave me for anyone. Hmf." I muttered, looking away.
Kairi laughed and hooked arms with me, Isabella on the other side.
"Did you guys hear? There's a new girl!" Jonah exclaimed, smiling perverted.
Lily sighed, then looked towards us. "Yesterday never happened."
"Same with me here." Isabella assured her.
"Daphne, come here." Seth called. I nervously walked over. "Yeah?"
"I want you to meet Aaron Fernandes. He's like, one of the new protectors of you girls, you know, because of Dylan leaving and joining the other side and whatnot...and I just want you to help him get to know the rest. I know you're good at it and maybe Aaron could help you forget...yesterday." Seth smiled at me, then motioned to the boy standing a bit behind him. Seth left and joined Lily at the front, who was leading. She was also trying to stay away from Jonah, who was hanging with Jason near the back. Isabella and Kairi came over to join me.
"Hey Aaron." I said, smiling. "I'm Daph." Aaron had mid-night black hair, Zac Efron style, with bangs that went just above his eyes, and was easy to flip out. His eyes were a light silver and his smile a bit crooked but really cute. He held a skateboard in one hand. "And this is Isabella," I pointed to Iz, "And that's Kairi." I pointed to Ri.
"Heyy..." they murmured, suddenly dazed by the boy's good looks.
"Hey." He smiled and they sighed happily. "Ok, enough." I said I said to them.
"Where you girls going?" He asked as we began to walk after the group.
"We're going to the same place you guys are. The Summers'." I informed.
"How long will it take? I wanna meet the girl! I think her name's Sadie Diane!" Jonah complained, then laughed. "She's really HOT!"
I could see Lily tightening up her fists then relaxing. She was probably telling herself that yesterday didn't happen.
"Come on guys. My dad said he'll send someone to pick us up. Hopefully there won't be enough room for one more person. *cough*jonah*cough*. Hm...think I'm coming down with something." Lily commented.
Bridgette laughed. "Probably Jonah-titis. Lots of people get allergic to this, you know."
Suddenly, two cars arrived. More like limousines, actually. Two suited men came out and opened the doors. The first one was for girls as the interior was all pink, while the other was for boys, since its interior was all blue.
"Wow. Dad sent our cars." Lily murmured. "And he hasn't changed the inside of mine yet. It's still pink!"
"I like pink!" I told her.
"Well, bye Aaron. I'll see you later." I said, then got into the limo after the other girls.
"Yeah." He agreed, then got into the other one.
We got out an hour later.
"Man, you live farrr." Isabella complained.
"Oh, hush up." Lily snapped. We stood in the middle of a large, green, alive forest. It was beautiful and quite peaceful.
"I could get used to this." I murmured.
The other limo pulled up and the boys got out.
"Wow. Nice place you got here, Seth." Aaron complimented.
"Thanks. I love home." Seth replied.
"So...where's the home?" Jonah asked, looking around. "I don't see anything except trees."
"Look. Up." Lily instructed.
I looked up and gasped. It was wonderful.
The people here had created a community, in the trees. Each tree held a house, or houses if they were small. The houses were connected to each other by bridges or pathways. Above us, was the center or forum. People, either in human form or in their creature form flew/walked back and forth, chatting and laughing with friends or relatives. Even though it looked loud, it was in fact silent. How could that happen?
"There's a barrier that doesn't let the noise out so that visitors or passersby could enjoy the peacefulness." Lily told me, as if she had read my thoughts.
"Well, how do we get up?" Jason asked.
"Ladders. Duh." Seth answered.
"Let's go already! I've never been in a tree before!" Kairi exclaimed, then blushed as everyone gave her an incredulous look.
"Have you ever been in a tree?" Aaron asked me, his eyes plain curious.
"Yeah! As a child I loved to climb trees. It's soo peaceful, once you get at the top. You can hardly hear the city below you. It's amazing." I blurted, then giggled. "Sorry, I talk wayyy too much."
"Nahh, don't worry about it." He smiled. "Now, let's start climbing."
Lily walked over to a nearby tree, and slowly she started to climb.
"How do you do that?" Bridgette asked. "Can't I just fly?"
"No. Come on. There are steps here." She was nearly at the top.
I followed after her and found the steps. I began to climb. Soon, we stood on the platform. "Wow. It's uh..high up."
She laughed. "I know."
Once everyone was up and ok, we began to walk over a bridge. Seth and Lily ran over the bridge while the rest of us slowly crept over.
"This is scary!" Squeaked the pixies, huddling each other for comfort.
"DAD! DAD! DAD! DAD! DAD! DAD!" Lily and Seth cried at the same time, running towards a house in its own tree. A couple emerged from the house, smiling happily. They both had brown hair, but the woman had green eyes identical to Lily's and the man had light brown eyes identical to Seth's. The man, their father, hugged his daughter warmly. "Hello, Princess. Welcome home."
"Princess? You're a princess too?" Kairi asked, her eyes wide with curiosity.
"No. It's just a pet name from my father. He's chief of this community. Almost like a king, but more like a general or adviser for the people." Lily explained. "Oh." Kairi replied, disapointed.
"But she's definitely treated like a princess." Seth laughed. "Tiaras, dresses, limos, what more can you ask for?"
We laughed and followed the family inside. It was bright in the treehouse. We walked straight into the hallway. To our right was the living room, with cozy green couches and a tv. To our left was the kitchen, nice and roomy for Mrs. Summers. Farther down the hall was three bedrooms; one for the parents, one for Seth and one for Lily. Seth's was on the left while Lily's was on the right and their parents was in the middle. It was small but beautifully decorated and really comfy.
"We also have a second floor." Mr. Summers informed. "And your mother and I fixed it up a bit while you guys were away."
"Awwhh, Dad. You didn't." Seth groaned. "It was fine the way it was."
"No, no. Go on and look at it. And take your friends too." Mrs. Summers smiled. "While I prepare some treats. After some snacks and getting to know one another, you guys can visit the market. There's a big sale going on! Ok, go on up."
Seth reached up and pulled on a little ladder, while made a door slide open at the top.
"Nice." Todd remarked.
Slowly, Seth started to climb, followed by Lily. I went after, then Aaron, Bridgette, Todd, Kairi, Isabella, Jason and Jonah.
Once we were all there, us girls screamed. " Oh. MY. GAWD! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!"
The room had been transformed from a simple playroom to a mega J.C room. (Just Chilling Room). The walls were a light green, and the floor was hard wood. On the right side was a large plasma tv with several multi-coloured beanie bag chairs surrounding it. On the other side was a large stereo and a high-tech computer. Lastly, in the center of the room, was a ping-pong table.
Mister and Mrs. Summers appeared behind us. "How do you like it?"
Lily ran and threw her arms around her father's neck. "Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!! I LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE it!"
Seth followed behind her. He wrapped his arms around his small mother, and gave her a big kiss on her forehead. "Thanks, Mom. It's wonderful."
"Oh my." Mrs. Summers said as her cheeks flushed red. "Well, you're very welcome, kids."
"We just thought, since you guys are older now, you guys needed a room where you could just be you. And this is perfect. Plus, this means you'll be bringing your friends home instead of hanging outside where we can't watch you. " Mr. Summers explained. "We're glad you like it so much."
"Like it? We even love it!" The rest of us cried, then ran all over the room. I threw myself onto a red beanie bag chair and sank into bliss. "How wonderful to have parents like this."
Aaron and Lily sank into the other ones around me. Kairi also sat in one and began to bounce up and down on it. "WEEE! This is fun! I loveeeeeeeeeee this room, Lil!"
"So do I!" She cried.
Seth took a long, long plug and plugged it into the TV. Then, karoke popped up. "Awesome." He turned on the stereo and the VCR. "LET'S PLAY!"
The rest of the gang crowded around and grabbed more beanie bag chairs that had been revealed in a closet. Soon, all sitting in beanies, the microphone was handed out. "Who wants to sing first?"
"I'll do a duet!" I cried, grabbing one.
Aaron took the other. "Damn, I need a guitar. That would be awesome."
Mr. Summers came and took a guitar out of the closet. "We got a bit carried away and bought the whole rock band thing. Plus the WII and other games." He admitted shyly. "We'll be downstairs if you need us." With that, he left, a smile upon his face.
Aaron took the guitar, and a microphone. "What song?"
"Well, do Superhuman. It's really awesome." Lily suggested, clicking Superhuman. "We'll sing along too. Don't worry. But quietly, 'cause we want to know what you two get on the score board."
"I don't know if the first try will be very good though." I said shyly. "I'm not a good singer. I just like to sing. And I LOVE this song."
The song began playing, and Aaron started off singing:
Boy:
Weak
I have been crying and crying for weeks
How'd I survive when I can barely speak
Barely eat, On my knees.
Girl:
But that's the moment you came to me
You don't know what your love has done to me
Think I'm invincible
I see though the me I used to be
Together:
You changed my whole life
Don't know what your doing to me with your love
I'm feeling all super human, you did this to me
A super human heart beats in me
Nothing can stop me here with you
Super human (I feel so superhuman X2)
Super human
Boy:
Strong
Since I've been flying and writing the wrongs
Feels almost like I've had it all along
I can see tomorrow
Girl:
Well every problem is gone because
I flew everywhere with love inside of me
It's unbelievable to see how love can set me free
Together:
You changed my whole life (life)
Don't know what your doing to me with your love (uh-huh)
I'm feeling all super human, you did this to me
A super human heart beats in me
Nothing can stop me here with you
Super human (I feel so superhuman X2)
Super human
Together:
It's not a bird, not a plane
It's my heart and it's going, gone away
My only weakness is you
Only reason is you
Every minute with you
I can feel like I can do anything
I'm Going going, gone away love
You changed my whole life (oh uh)
Don't know what your doing to me with your love (to me with your love)
I'm feeling all super human, you did this to me, yeah
A super human heart beats in me
Nothing can stop me here with you
Super human
"Wow." everyone else murmured. "You guys are amazing."
I blushed deeply. "What did we get?"
"TEN!!!! OH MY GAWD THEY GOT A TEN!" Bridgette and Isabella screamed. "GO YOU TWO!"
"You did amazing." Aaron complimented.
"Thanks. So did you." I replied. "Ok, Kairi's turn."
"WHAT?!?!" She cried. "NO WAY!"
We gave her the microphone and turned on Until You're Mine by Demi Lovato. At first she sang shyly but then got into it. She received an 8.
Jonah sang Crush By David Archuleta and got a 4 purposely. Todd sang Right now (na na na) By Akon and received a 7. "Was never much of a singer, anyway." He had said.
The rest of the afternoon, we sang and played games on the new WII. When it was getting late, around four o'clock, we sadly left behind the games and went downstairs.
"My, you guys spent all your time up there. Now how will you get to the market?" Mrs. Summers asked.
"It's alright, Mum. We'll be back with them soon. Promise." Seth said and we left after some goodbyes and hugs.
"What's with the big commotion?" Bridgette asked as we got out of the limos and headed towards the school. The front yard was packed with people boys and girls alike. They were all screaming something...
"SADIE! OH MY GAWD! SADIE'S HAVING A COMPETITION!" Jonah cried, running to join the crowd. Todd tore off after him.
We followed to see what was going on. Slowly we got to the front.
Sadie Diane was not at all pretty. She had dark, curly hair that went down to her back. She wore the uniform skirt way too short and the top way too tight. She had a suductive smile upon her face until she spotted Bridgette and Lily.
"BRIDGETTE SMITH AND LILY SUMMERS. Finally, you girls show yourself. Apparently the hottest girls in school, despite your age. Well, we'll see about that! Looks like your boys have decided to join my challenge. And guess what? I choose, " She turned to the rest of the crowd, "TODD CARTER AND JONAH WOOD to a battle for MY LOVE!"
"Urgh, idiots!" Both girls said, impatiently. They looked over and a surprised look came on. Todd and Jonah were no longer themselves. Their eyes had gone blank and they were actually preparing to fight each other! They were best friends! Fighting over her?
"Jonah! Jonah! Stop! You don't know what you're doing!" Lily cried, running up to Jonah. Apparently she had forgotten that she was suppose to forget about yesterday. She grabbed his arm and began to shake him. He did not even look at her. Instead, he pushed her to the ground.
Lily fell, tears spilling from her eyes. Through the day, she had actually thought that he was really into her, he really liked her....and hope had grown in her little fragile heart. The hope shattered and fell...just like her tears. Stupid emotions. Seth ran to help his sister up and angrily turned to his best friend. "HOW DARE YOU DO THAT TO MY SISTER?!" he shouted but Jonah completely ignored him.
Bridgette ran up to Todd, throwing herself in front of him. She was not going to let him fight his best friend for another girl when he already had her. "TODD CARTER! LISTEN TO ME! YOU. ARE. NOT. GOING. TO. FIGHT. JONAH. FOR. ANOTHER. GIRL. GOT THAT?!?!?!?!?" But he also pushed her aside.
Sadie crackled with delight. "YES! FIGHT FOR MY LOVE! FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!"
The crowd joined her, chanting.
"I'LL SHOW YOU A FIGHT!" Bridgette shouted.
The chanting died down at the signal of Sadie's hand. "Oh really, pip-squeak? BRING IT ON!" Suddenly, wings flew out of her back, her fingernails grew to claws, her eyes turned red and her outfit changed. It was a tight strapless dress that revealed her stomach and belly button. It barely reached mid-thigh. "YOU'LL NEVER BEAT A SUCUBUS! NOT EVEN WITH YOUR PETTY FRIENDS!"
Bridgette looked to us. "Together?"
"Did she say she was a sucky-bus? Laugh my ASS off!" Lily remarked. "Let's go, girls!"
"PIXIE DUST!" we all said at the same time, transforming at the same time, and appearing to the crowd at the same time. We did things together. Period.
Sadie flew into the sky and we all followed her.
"Go Daphne!" Pynki cried from my locket. "Thanks, Pynki."
"A sky fight? My kind of place!" Bridgette laughed. "Bring it on, Sucky! Ha! Sadie the Sucky-Bus! Nice."
Sadie growled and flew to Bridgette, intending to claw her eyes out. Bridgette dodged and threw a silver ball at her. Lily shot a green one at Sadie's front. "THAT'S FOR TAKING MY MAN!"
"So, Jonah's your man now, huh?" Kairi asked, laughing. She shot water bubbles at Sadie's wings. I began to make a pink ball when suddenly, Dylan and Brie appeared.
"Damn, that girl got here before us." Brie laughed. "But she's a sucky!"
"Hey! That's MY word!" Bridgette exclaimed.
I stared as Dylan, dressed like Brie, stood there beside her. His eyes were blank and serious. I looked to his neck and around it was a necklace identical to Brie's. Then I noticed a change, in the middle was a silver stone. Weird.
Because of my not paying attention, Sadie came after me. She knocked me out of the air, and I flew to the ground below.
"DAPHNEEEEEEEEEEEE!" my girls screamed, terrified.
Then, I fell into soft arms. "Gotcha." Aaron exclaimed, thankfully. He placed me on the ground.
"Thanks, Aaron." I said, smiling. "I could have died."
I looked up and waved, to show that I was ok. Seth ran up to me. "Is Lily and Isabella alright up there?"
I nodded. "We're all fine. I was the first to get hit. But now there's also Brie and Dylan. We don't know how to fight them all off."
"Well, Jason, Aaron, and I could come and help you, but we're trying to keep Todd and Jonah off of each other. They're still fighting!" Seth sighed. "Stupid idiots."
"Imma go back up now. Thanks again." I sighed too, then shot right back up. "You're gonna pay for that blow."
"So, I leave for a week and you get a boyfriend huh?" Dylan asked, surprising me. There was a certain edge to his voice....anger?
"Not. My. Boyfriend. Don't. Talk. To. Me. Asshole." I said, one word at a time. I turned and went to join the fight. Suddenly, I was in the mood. How could he think that Aaron was my boyfriend? I just met him! But...Dylan wouldn't know that. Urgh! He was such an idiot. I flew over to Sadie and kicked her hard in the gut. Bridgette got in and punched her in the chest. "YOU HAVE NO BOOBS! POSER!"
The rest of the girls kept sending different kinds of attacked while Bridgy and I used physical power. Finally, we sent her sprawling for the ground.
We landed on the ground, some of us a bit injured.
"Brie...let's go. They're in no shape to fight us." Dylan instructed. "Fine." she sighed. And they left!
"How do we get the guys to snap out of it?" Bridgette asked as she changed back into our normal clothes.
"What else?" Lily sighed. "Man." She walked up to Jonah, who was being held by Seth. "Seth, don't kill him for this. Kill him for hurting me."
Bridgette walked up to Todd, who was being held by Jason. "We're through, you know. Only doing this because you really don't want to mess with Jonah."
Then, they kissed them. Sweet, gentle kisses that can warm the heart of any guy. They finished and walked back to us. "Let's get out of here."
I nodded and followed them back, giving Aaron one last thankful smile before going into our dorms.
I owed him. A lot.
thats it. personally, i cant sing so im glad that Daphne can. And I'm happy that Kairi got such a high grading. Its amazing what friends can get us to do. I also love the kick-ass part becuz that Sadie girl was actually based on a real girl that i no would make a great living out of being a "sucky-bus". Anyway, me and "bridgette" have been planning a long time ago to kik her ass if she EVER stole one of our guys. whether or not they were our best friends or our crushes. And guess wat? SHE HAS! luckily, all of the guys hate her and shes not very successful. but who nos in the future?
Thanks for reading and please review! This is the longest ive ever written which is a lot! Thanks! and btw! i tried to get it to go bac to the right side, but it would NOT listen to me! so sorry for the rest of the chapter after the song being in the middle too! i really really really hate it but it doesnt look that bad. does it? please review!
