Chapter 15

Daphne's P.O.V

"Guys. I've just realized. We're going to have to stay the night..." I murmured. It was morning and we were packing our bags for our human world adventure.

"Really??? That's great!!" Bridgette exclaimed happily, placing her stuff into her huge duffel bag. "I'm going to need to pack more then."

"But...where will we stay?" Lily asked, sitting on her bed, her phone in her hand. She was checking her messages from her parents.

"At my house of course." I laughed. "Call the guys. They have to stay too. We're not going back to Vampiria tonight I guess!"

"WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Brie cried, estatic. "Told ya not to worry!"

Lily smiled and punched in Jonah's number. After a moment, she said, "Hello?" She placed him on speaker.

"What's wrong, Lil? Why are you calling so early?!?!?! Did something happen?" He asked from the other line.

"No, no Silly. Just tell the rest that we're staying the night at Daphne's...so pack for two days. ok?" she giggled.

"Fine. Ok. We'll be done in about an hour. See you then." he hung up.

"Bye." Lily muttered.

"OK, let's get packing!" Kairi clapped her hands. "I'll wake up Izzie."

She made a small water bubble, which she threw onto Isabella's head.

"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!" she screamed, jumping out of bed. "URGHHHH! I'M GOING TO KILL YOU KAIRI YUNA JONES!!"

Kairi laughed. "OK! CATCH ME IF YOU CAN!" She began to run around the room.

Bridgette groaned and threw her bag onto the floor...right into Kairi's path. Shrieking, Kairi fell to her knees over Bridgette's bag.

Isabella laughed evilly, her hands up, ready to pounce. Kairi screamed playfully as Isabella glomped her.

When they were done, we placed all our bags at the door. I buzzed the office from our room. (we have our own buzzer. Kool.)

"Hello. Welcome to the automatic buzzer. What would you like to do? 1) talk to the secretary 2) leave a message 3) sign in absent 4) arrange for a meeting 5) other." came the clear voice of a computerized P.A system. Or was it controlled by a computer?

"Number 2 and 3 please." I said, politely. They monitored these.

"Ok. Who is signing in absent?" the voice asked.

"Daphne Nelson, Year 1. Kairi Jones, Year 1. Lily Summers, Year 1. Isabella Rossi, Year 1. Gabriella Bautista, Year 1." Then, I paused. "Should we do it for the guys too?"

Lily nodded. "I'll call." She dialed Jonah's number once more, and he picked up.

"What?" he asked, irritated.

"Don't tell me you're still sleeping. Do you want us to sign you guys in as absent?" Lily asked.

"Sure, sure."

"OK, 'night." Lily snickered and hung up. "Yeah, sign them in."

"Anymore?" The buzzer asked.

"Yes. Jonah Wood, Year 2. Aaron Fernandes, Year 2. Todd Carter, Year 2. Seth Summers, Year 2. Jason Tucker, Year 2." I answered.

"Ok. Thank you. And the message?" the voice questioned. "Recording, now."

"Mrs. Gillisto, this is Daphne Nelson, Year 1. We're going on an over-night trip, so we won't be back 'til tomorrow night. Please mark us absent from school today. Thank you." I said.

"Thank you. That will be delivered immediately. Have a nice day." And the buzzer clicked off.

"Well." Lily muttered. "Girls, are we ready?"

Isabella, being the quick girl she is, was already done packing. "Yup."

Kairi threw her bags at the front of the door and smiled. "I did it!"

Bridgette was sitting on her duffel bag, pretending to ride it. "Already done."

I ran and grabbed my bags, throwing them on Kairi's and Bridgette's.

"Let's goooooooo already." Brie whined.

We grabbed our stuff and made our way down the hall. How exactly are we supposed to haul all this to the bus stop? I realized, dreading the ache that my feet were going to receive. But how happy Mother would be to see me again! Then, a pain shot through my chest, reminding me that she actually was not my mother....

I made a mental note to ask about that later, but right now, I was trying to lead the girls out into the schoolyard. We stood at the front gates, waiting for them boys.

Finally, after being fifteen minutes late, they arrived.

"Sorry. We stopped by the cafeteria." Jonah apologized. He walked over to Lily for a hug, but instead she threw her bags into his arms. "Thanks." she grinned. "Ouf. No. P-problem." he grunted.

"Hey." The rest said, in union. Freaky. They looked at each other and laughed.

We were about to leave when I spotted someone watching us. I looked closer, and the person, a boy, hid behind one of the school's many columns.

"Umm...guys...someone's watching us." I murmured.

They all turned to look at me. "Where?" Todd asked, rolling his sleeves up.

"Over there. Behind that column." I pointed.

Todd looked over to Jonah and they stalked over. A second later, they dragged a terrified boy towards us.

Jonah threw him to the ground. I gasped. "Jonah! Don't be rough!"

"Hey. You. Why were you watching us?" Aaron asked suspiciously. Brie stood beside him, even though he tried to protect her. I almost giggled at the thought. This skinny, brown-haired boy, hurt someone?

"What's your name?" Kairi asked softly and I was glad that she was on my side. Kairi was always sweet.

"E-Eric. Eric Estrada. Pleasedon'thurtme." he quavered under Jonah's glare.

"Jonah!" Lily cried, pushing him away. "You're scaring him!"

Jonah fell onto the big pile of bags. "Ooooouuuuuccccccccchhhhhhh!" He complained.

"What year are you in?" Bridgette asked. I also noticed his Xylon Toxic outfit. "Aren't you a bit old to be shaking like that? Yet, a bit too young to stalk people?"

"Bridge!" I gasped. "That was mean. Eric, ignore her." I sent her a glare. "Why aren't you in school?"

"I...well...I was until I saw them leaving the school. I wanted to know where you were going...seems like you guys were going to meet up with our future School Princesses." he smiled. "Oh, and I'm in Year 1. I am not stalking."

I rolled my eyes but laughed. "Sorry. We're going on a trip. We'll...see you later then, Eric."

"Bye." He grinned foolishly. "See you soon, Ms. Nelson."

Bridgette snickered as Lily kicked her, even though Lily had a big smile on her face.

I blushed slightly and tried to swallow my own laugh as I grabbed my bag and headed towards the bus stop.

Once we were eat-shot away, the group burst into howls.

"MISS....NELSON.....THAT...KID....IS....HILARIOUS!" Todd tried to say during fits of laughter.

Anger fumed inside me, but I didn't let it show. Anymore of this and they'd be rolling on the ground...

...which was exactly what happened. Jason bumped into Aaron, who leaned on Jonah for support, who fell onto the ground and continued to roll around.

I rolled my eyes and continued to walk, leaving behind the retards, including my friends.

Soon, they caught up.

"Hey...you're not angry, are you?" Brie asked, concern yet misfit still in her eyes.

I shook my head and smiled. "Nahh.."

We boarded the bus, said hi to Bill, and took our seats. This was going to be one heck of a ride.

Dylan's P.O.V

"Let. Go. Of. Me." I grumbled, trying to pry Sadie off of my arm. It was beginning to go numb. Earlier, she had been wayy too flirty during practice, and I had grown fed up. She can get her ass kicked by Daphne. I mentally cringed as the name flowed past my mind. It still hurts sometimes.

She let go reluctantly. We were flying slowly over Ivylonia, making our way to Earth. I had found out that that was where they were heading, to find my baby sister. I should have thought of that.

"I'm so going to beat their asses." Sadie muttered. I tried to block her voice out...and failed.

"Hi, I'm Bridgette and I'm going to hurt you. I'm preppy and I lovee boys. Especially Todd Carter..Ooooo, he's soooo hot and he's mineee." Sadie mocked in a high-pitched voice.

I clutched my hands together, forming fists. I liked Bridgette. She had an edge, yet was still perky. She was my friend....or at least, used to be. How did I ever give that up? All my friendships?

Sadie continued. "Hi. I'm Daphne..." I froze. "...and I think I'm all that. I can hurt you at any time. You think you're sooo good but really, I am. You know nothing. You're a slut, and you need to be taken care of." Anger boiled and I almost burst....and I will...if she continues.

Sadie's voice went to normal. I almost let out a sigh of relief...until the next came. "Pfft.. I'm soooo going to get that girl back. She's such a bitch, don't you think Dylan? She's an ugly whore. A bitchy asshole who needs to get a life...who smells like a human but thinks she soo 'superior'. I am going to KILL her!"

The next moment, I had pinned Sadie against the ground, smoke coming out of my ears. No one talks about Daphne that way. No. One. "One more time. Say that about her. ONE. MORE. TIME." I threatened.

She giggled. "You could have asked nicely if you wanted me on the ground..."

I jumped up, and punched a wall. Anger boiled through me, going straight from my head to my toes, from my organs to my skin. I loved her that much. And our love was forbidden. Plus, she probably likes someone else anyway.

"You....you like her, don't you?" Sadie asked, outraged. Wait, why was she angry??

I didn't reply. Instead, I turned around and faced outside once more. We were kind of in an invisible box, floating over the city, with no one to see or hear us.

Sadie growled. "What do you see in her? Why don't you like me? SHE'S THE ENEMY!"

"DOES IT MATTER?" I exploded. Sigh. "DOES IT MATTER IF I LOVE HER? THAT WE CAN'T LOVE EACH OTHER? THAT WE'RE ON OPPOSITE TEAMS? THAT...THAT I'VE HURT HER SO MUCH, I'M SCARED OF MEETING HER AGAIN? THAT AT ONE POINT, BEFORE CHRISTMAS, I HAD THOUGHT I WAS SINGING WITH HER? HEARING HER VOICE?" I breathed hard, my face probably red from shouting.

Sadie looked taken back, then angry. "SHE'S NOTHING!" Her voice lowered, almost to a whisper. "I can be whatever she is to you, and more. I could love you....why...Dylan, WHY?!?!?" She burst into tears and ran into the next room...it was small and was kind of like a kitchen.

I had not realized that Sadie liked me. Opps. Oh well. I tried to become calm, but really, how could I? I was stuck in a stupid, little box with a girl in love with me, wondering if the girl I love loves me back?

Should I....ask her about it? No, no, that would make me look like a fool...

but I want to know soooooooooooooo badly....

What should a guy do?

Daphne's P.O.V

"Hi Mom!" I greeted my mother, who stood shocked at our door.

"DAPHNE DARLING!" She cried and embraced me warmly. Now I knew that, even though we were not blood-related, she as still my mother. Once she was done she let out in surprise, "And you brought friends!"

"Yeah...the concert for Dancing Diamond is tonight, so we got permission to leave school early. But...the concert goes late into the night...soo...we kinda have to stay the night. Is that alright?" I asked, not certain.

"Of course, of course! Come in! Now, who exactl is who?" My mother asked as we shuffled in. I placed my bags at the foot of my curved stairs, and my friends did the same. "HONEY! DAPHNE'S HOME WITH FRIENDS!" she called to my father, who was probably in his study.

And sure enough, my father emerged from the basement. "Well, hello again! Wait...I've never met those boys..."

After I introduced them to my parents, I nodded towards the stairs. "Imma take the guys up into our guest room, and the girls will be in mine, ok?"

My parents smiled. "Sure. And...it's a bit early, but perhaps they want a tour of the city? I mean, ABA is pretty far away, isn't it?" my mother asked. You have no idea, I wanted to say. Instead, I replied, "Yep. Taking them shopping!"

I dropped the guys off at their room, laughing at another dumb joke about the decors of my house, before showing the girls my room.

"Woah. It's....you." Lily muttered.

It was true. My bedsheets were reversible, and the side up was white with red and pink polka dots. My desk was red/gold/black. My carpet was a baby pink, while a mirror, hanging from my closet door, was decorated with red and black hearts. My walls were different colours, green as my ceiling, orange, blue, yellow, purple as the sides.

I grinned. "Do you like it?"

"Love it!" Bridgette exclaimed, dropping her bags in the middle of my room.

"Soo...rainbow-ish!" Kairi agreed, placing her bags beside Bridgette's. Isabella copied her.

Brie sighed. "My room is sooo completely different than this." She set her stuff down.

"Anyway, we ready to go spend those gift cards???" I asked, gleefully. For Christmas, I had given them human gift cards and couldn't wait to use them.

"Umm...yeah. What's....La Senza?" Isabella asked.

I giggled. "The guys will love that store."

I was right. They did.

Freaking, my girls would not enter the store as they watched bright-faced as their boyfriends laughed at them. I smiled happily. Too bad that...wait, don't think like this! You don't need him! Have fun with your friends! I thought, taking in a deep breath. I'm strong. He's gone. I could handle.

And the rest of the day, I tried not to think of him.

The Hours Passed and It is now one hour before the 8:00 show

We stood, freezing, in line outside of the huge dome where Dancing Diamond was staring. Can you believe that one twelve (she turned twelve two weeks ago) year old girl created all this? Was this popular?

I hugged myself, trying to keep warm in the January breeze. I was thankful that there was no blizzard, like there usually was around this time.

"Guys....how much longer?" Jonah whined, wrapping his arms around Lily to keep warm. I think she was blushing, or maybe it was just the cold.

"Wait...shhh....I hear something..." Todd said, placing a finger to his lips.

We became silent, trying to listen too.

Then, a voice passed through my head, and it definitely wasn't mine. Daphne...I'll meet you at the nearby park...in five minutes. Come now. Bring the others if you wish for them to be injured. I nearly cried. Dylan. Here.

I began to run. I needed my friends, but I didn't want them to be hurt. What should I do?

"DAPHNE! DAPHNE, WHERE ARE YOU GOING!?!?!?!?" my friends shouted from behind me. I could hear that they were running after me and I shouted back, "DON'T FOLLOW ME! PLEASE, DON'T FOLLOW ME!"

I saw the park ahead of me and ran faster. I could no longer hear anyone behind me, so hopefully they gave up. The wind was in my face but I continued....Dylan....that was all I could think of...I knew that I was going towards my death, but...to see him...after soo long...

I stopped, gasping for air in the middle of the playground, looking around. "DYLAN! DYLAN!"

"D-Daphne? You....you actually came?" A voice came from behind me and I whirled around, surprised. He also was surprised, clearly on his face. "You shouldn't have..."

I was about to take a step, when suddenly a sword came for my neck.

"I'll kill you Daphne Nelson. I'll kill you and all your pesty friends!" came the voice of someone I hated; Sadie Diane.

I fell backwards as she whirled by. "Pynki...transform." I whispered and felt the warmth fill my body. I was no longer cold but alert and serious. I got out my pink sword, and held it up. I looked into Dylan's face, showing no indifference. He had tricked me, even though I knew what was going to happen. I felt pain once more, as if my heart had been whole. It hadn't. How could it still hurt?

I faced Sadie, planting my feet in a strong stance, getting ready.

She ran at me and I dodged her, but narrowly. But she surprised me, she turned around quickly and swiped and I crashed to the ground. She smirked, holding her sword above me. So this must have been how Brie had felt. I closed my eyes, preparing myself for pain...more pain...but...it didn't come. Instead, I heard a scream and lots of shouting.

I opened my eyes and found a shocking present; Dylan was fiting with Sadie, protecting meand my friends had all transformed. They were here. For me. Awwh. Ninjas came out of nowhere, fighting them.

"SHE'S MINE!" Dylan shouted. "I'LL DO THE KILLING!"

The happiness left. He wanted to kill me himself. That was all. Stupid stupid stupid emotions. Surprisingly (yes, more surprises) I felt calm. Oddly calm.

I stood up and faced him. "Ok. I'm ready."

He looked at me, a sober look upon his face, then came at me. Our swords clashed, and we were face to face.

"Daphne!" he cried over the noise.

"What?" I asked, irritably. What did he want?

"DO YOU LOVE ME?!?!?!?!" he shouted, a bit too loud. The whole playground fell silent and his question laid thick in the air, ringing in our ears.

"What?!?!" I asked once more, not sure if I heard him right.

"Do....do you love me?" he asked once more, looking...scared. Was he scared...of me rejecting him?

Then, I did something I never thought I'd do. I dropped my sword and threw my arms around him, tears rolling down my cheeks. "Dylan..."

"Is that a yes?" he whispered in my ear, stroking my hand while hugging me back. I looked up and reached for the necklace, pulling it off. "You're free. You don't have to do what Monica tells you to."

He smiled. "Woah. I feel...a bit different."

"Yeah, that happens." Brie joked. "I felt it too."

"URRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!" Sadie screamed. "YOU TRAITOR!" She then dissapeared into thin air...along with the other ninjas.

"Well...that was quick." Aaron murmured.

"Good to have you back, dude." Todd laughed, pulling Bridgette closer to him.

We all changed back into our original clothes, and then headed back to the concert area.

Little did we know, that there was ANOTHER surprise to come...

that's it. Thanks for reading .sorry for the delay and the cliffy. Thanks and please REVIEW!
