Chapter 14 Lies and Reflections
Brandon walked down the stairs with a smile on his face, it was 7 in the evening and he was planning on seeing Nicole again and after the results that happened a few days ago he couldn't wait.
"Someone's happy" Bloom said as Brandon walked into the room.
"You bet" He said sitting down on the couch, "Life is sweet".
Just then the door burst open and Timmy and Tecna hurried in, "WE KNOW WHO THIS GIRL IS" They both screamed at the same time.
"Ok where the hell did you two come from" Bloom asked looking around nervously but Brandon got up straight away, "What, who is she then".
"Who are you all talking about" Bloom asked thoroughly confused.
"Oh come on Bloom, the girl who came to me in my dreams, the one who told me to stay close to Stella, the one who we've been trying to find out who she is for a while now" Brandon practically yelled at Bloom.
"Oh" Bloom muttered going slightly red.
"So what did you find?" Brandon asked, Timmy placed his laptop down on the table and opened it up.
"Well we ran some tests to find out if this girl was in any way related to Stella, things like height and such" Timmy started.
"And all the tests we ran we the exact same results as Stella's" Tecna then said.
"So then we thought that this picture might be Stella in her final transformation stage, which you girls should be earning in you next year at Alfea" Timmy said.
"That is called the Enchantix, this is what we need to become a full fairy" Tecna said, "So we think that the girl who keeps on coming to you Brandon is in fact Stella in her Enchantix form".
Brandon's mouth dropped open, "So this girl is Stella, but how is she coming to me and also seeing me on earth?" He asked.
"Well we thought about this and we found out that Stella's Enchantix form must of somehow realized what was going on and used its powers to contact you Brandon, The Enchantix is very powerful and can do things like this" Tecna told Brandon.
"Wow but what can we do now?" Bloom asked, "Like with helping Stella with her memory".
"Well to get you Enchantix you have to save someone from your own realm so we came up with an idea of going to Solaria and saving her father from Chimera and Cassandra, that way she gets her Enchantix and then hopefully her powers will heal her memory and she will forget all about ever being Nicole" Timmy said.
"But there's one more thing that I'm worried about" Tecna said calmly, "Brandon you're going to have to tell Stella everything you know, about her powers, her life, everything, we need this so that we can get her to Solaria and so she can activate her powers and stop this. But what I'm scared about is how she will take it, I mean how will she accept that she's a princess and a fairy".
"Yeah I guess I never thought about that, but I think she can trust me so hopefully everything will be ok" Brandon said confidently.
"Well lets hope" Tecna muttered, just then there was a knock at the door.
"I'll get it" Bloom said, she got up and walked to the door, she opened it to find Nicole standing there.
"Hey, it's Bloom right?" She said smiling.
"Yeah that's right, good to see you again Nicole" She said, "come in".
Nicole followed Bloom into the lounge, "Brandon, Nicole's here" Bloom said as they walked in.
"Hey Nicole" Brandon said getting up and giving her a kiss of the cheek.
"Who are your friends" Nicole said looking at Tecna and Timmy.
"Oh these are my other friends, this is Tecna and this is Timmy" He said, Tecna got up and smiled at Nicole.
"Hi how are you" She asked.
"Good thanks" Nicole said.
"Well we should be heading off" Brandon told Nicole and they both headed towards the door, as Brandon walked towards it he turned around and the others all had sad looks on there faces, Brandon tried to ignore them and they both left.
"So what happens now?" Bloom asked.
"There's nothing more we can do" Timmy said quietly, "We have to wait until she accepts it and hopefully it won't be too hard on her".
Brandon couldn't help wondering about what would happen as he walked down the streets with Nicole, how would she react? Would she believe him or would she laugh and walk away? Well whatever was going to happen; Brandon was pretty nervous about it.
"Brandon are you ok" Nicole asked, "You seem a bit off today".
"Yeah I'm fine" He said, He lead her into a small café; he wanted it to be quite romantic just to soften her up so she would take it a bit easier.
They took there seats and ordered some food, Brandon was still waiting for the right moment to tell her, they had just finished when Brandon decided to tell her, but he never found a good moment.
Brandon was so lost he didn't even realize that their meal had ended and the bill had arrived.
"Brandon are you sure your ok" Nicole asked.
"I'm fine" He said, he looked down at the bill lying on the table, "oh I got this" He said and he pulled his wallet out of his pocket.
Inside his wallet was a picture of him and Stella before the accident and he had completely forgotten about it, Brandon opened it up letting and the photo accidentally fell out, Nicole picked it up and looked at it.
"When was this taken" She asked, "I don't remember it".
Brandon looked up at her and then realized that she was looking at the photo, "Oh god" He thought.
Nicole looked up at Brandon and then at the photo again, "Seriously why don't I remember this, it's like it was taken before I had my…" She fell silent, Brandon had a feeling on what was going to come next.
"Like it was taken before my accident" She finished, her eyes fell down to the table and her face had turned a ghostly pale.
"Umm Nicole" Brandon said nervously reaching out for her hand, she quickly jerked it away.
"Brandon…did you know me before the accident?" She asked.
"Uhhh well that's kind of what I need to tell you" He said, Nicole looked up at him confused.
"Well, yes I did know you before your accident" Nicole lent back on chair looking a bit angry.
"You knew me? Then why didn't you tell me, why didn't you say that you knew where I came from or why my accident happened instead of having me go on about how I wish I knew who I was" Nicole hissed.
"But you don't understand, you remember when I first met you and I called you Stella, well that's your real name and you not like other girls on Earth, you're a Fairy and you go to a school in a completely different realm" Brandon said, Nicole rolled her eyes.
"You expect me to believe that?" She spat, "That is just some rubbish you made up on the spot, tell me Brandon, who am I?"
"I just said, look I know it might be a bit hard to believe but I'm serious you are a Fairy, well not exactly just a Fairy, you're also a Princess from the realm of Solaria" Brandon said, he was beginning to think that he was sounding a bit stupid.
"Oh so now I'm a Princess" Nicole hissed, "I thought that you were the one but now I see that you're just a jerk, why can't you tell me the truth? Were you my enemy from the past? Are you happy seeing me worry about my memory loss? Well you know it just doesn't matter because I hate you and I never want to see you again" And with that she got up and ran straight out of the café.
"NO Stella wait" Brandon called running after her.
"STOP CALLING ME THAT" She yelled back, "I don't need anyone from my past to come and help me, I can manage fine with the new life I have" She said turning on her heel and running off again.
Brandon wasn't going to give up this easily, "Nicole WAIT" He cried as he followed her, Nicole wasn't too sure on where she was going but she knew that she wanted to get away from Brandon, she ran faster towards a forest at the end of the street, Brandon carried on following her.
Nicole ran through tall green trees, the sun had set a while ago so it was now pretty dark and she was struggling on finding her way through, Brandon, however had given up hope, he stood at the foot of the forest and pulled out his cell phone.
"Bloom its Brandon" He said down the phone, "Look I'm going to need help with Stella, can you meet me with the other girls at the edge of the forest, thanks, bye" He said down the phone.
Nicole was still thinking that Brandon was behind her so she carried on running, as she ran, tears poured down her soft face, she knew why she crying, she could've found out who she was, but she had blown it by telling him that she didn't care, but she did she was now wishing that she never said that.
Completely lost in her thoughts she tripped over a root sticking out of the ground, she fell straight on her face and started to cry even more, not because of the pain she was in but because of the things that had happened.
She curled up on the muddy ground and sobbed, she was so confused now, who was she, should she choose to believe Brandon, that she was a Princess and a Fairy from another realm and that her true name was Stella or should she continue with her new life and not look back to her new one, well whatever it was really getting her down.
She pulled herself up from the ground and started to walk, obviously Brandon had stopped following her or he would've caught up to her by now, she walked slowly through the dark forest silently, with only the moonlight to lead her.
She slowly came across a small river, Nicole decided to stay here for a while and relax, she sat down on a rock close by and looked down into the river and at her reflection, it rippled slightly every time the wind would blow, as she looked down at her reflection and couldn't help but cry again, what was going to happen to her now? She knew that someone out there knew about her but she was too afraid to go out and find for herself, she wasn't that strong and she was very fragile.
"Who am I?" She whispered to her reflection, "Who is this person that I see now? Is she what I have been told? Or someone else".
A single tear ran down her face and into the river causing her reflection to ripple in different direction, Nicole sniffed and she moved off the rock and back onto the ground, she hugged her knees and cried softly, she couldn't face going home and being someone she wasn't, instead she tried to forget everything that had happened that day.
That ended quite sadly I think, so review and I will update.
