(A/n: This chapter is in Annie's POV while she is in the coma. Jo did put a curse on Annie, but not a body-switching curse; think sleeping beauty. Annie thinks that this is actually happening; it is MOST DEFINITELY NOT happening in reality. Kendall is looking up curses on Avalon with the Cullens and the rest of BTR [including the girls, not Bella]. As usual, the Twilight characters belong to Stephenie Meyer and the BTR characters belong to Nickelodeon. I so wish that I could be Kendall's girl though; he is SO hot! Happy reading!)

"Happy Birthday to you. Happy Birthday to you. Happy birthday, my beautiful Annie. Happy birthday to you," Kendall was singing. Open your eyes so you can receive your first present of the day!
"All right all ready," I said as I opened my eyes. There was my beautiful, gorgeous, handsome (there really was no way to describe how good he looked) husband with a small box in his hand. He handed it to me. "Thank you darling, but I really do not need any more jewelry."
"This you do need," He replied.
I looked inside and there was something that I thought was lost to the sands of time. It was my mother's necklace; the one she wore everyday because it was a locket that housed 4 pictures, one of Edward and me and the other of our father. "Baby, where did you find it? I thought it had been destroyed or stolen, never to be seen by me or Edward again. I love it!"
At that moment, I heard Carlisle's voice, "Kendall, this is not a normal curse. Annie has to figure out a way to be able to talk to us. I would say this curse is linked to the sleeping curse that is told about in the fairy tale of Sleeping Beauty." Huh, that was weird. Could I really be under a curse? But why would I be under one? We dealt with Jo Trapper when we were in LA, or did I? This was completely weird. I was thinking that it was my 109th birthday, but could it be that I am 'dreaming'? That never happens. If I am, then I have to figure out who placed me under the curse and who they are in the dream. That is going to be easy, I sarcastically thought. "Baby," This time it was Kendall's voice I heard, "Please come back to me. Whatever you are seeing in there is not real. . ." Kendall sounded like he was crying. My only love should never cry because of me, unless it was happy tears; he should only cry if he was happy, not sad. I then heard twin's voice call out to me, "Annie, you need to find out who Jo is playing in that 'fake' fantasy of yours." Jo? SHE was behind all of this?!
"Darling," Kendall asked, "what's bothering you? I promise I will make her go away?" There's the slip. Jo was trying to be Kendall in my 'fantasy'. She is SSSSSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO going down. Now all I have to do is find the object that is keeping me in this cursed dream. "You are staying right here, Annie. No leaving for you, ever! I WILL have ownership of Kendall Knight!" Jo had finally dropped the act.
"You do understand Jo that Kendall is a human being and that humans are not possessions, right?" I asked her.
"I am a witch, you bitch. Every human is my plaything, if I wish it. And I wish that Kendall was mine, NOT anyone else's," Jo retorted.
"Then I have some REALLY shocking news for you, girl. Kendall is not just a human; he is the future Faerie King."
"You aren't the Winter Queen," Jo stated, "You are not even a sorceress. Otherwise, your eyes would have flecks in them."
I let my true eye color return. I knew that my flecks were now a ruby ring around my pupil, I was THAT pissed off. "I AM the Winter Queen, you idiot! I did not want you to run around Forks High spewing lies that I was a witch that had forced Kendall to love me! This is what you are trying to do, if I might add."
"Kendall is MINE!" Jo yelled. "You will not come between me and Kendall!"
"Witch, Kendall is mine, not yours! Of course, if you had not moved to LA, I would not be in this curse right now! I am missing quality time with my future sister - and all of my siblings!" I wanted so much to break the curse and hop into Kendall's arms. Wait, did I get shot in the stomach? That explains the abdominal pain that I have right now. "When this curse is broken, I WILL kill you; make no mistake. You have gone too far, reincarnation of Morgan Le Fey and Mordred. This will be your last life, this I swear on Merlin's blood." (A/n: If a sorceress/sorcerer swears something on Merlin's Blood, it means that the action that they wish to do WILL happen, and soon. As in, within 365 days of the swearing. ) As I said that, I spotted the cursed item. Typical. Jo really thought that by copying my mother's ring and making it the powerhouse of the curse I would be okay with not destroying it? "You really have a lot to learn Jo. Lesson one, never take an item from the person you wish to curse's past, especially one that they know exactly where is, and make it the powerhouse of the curse." I sang the spell that I knew would destroy the duplicate.
"Let the truth ring out,
Let the last bell chime.
For the curse shall be lifted
'Til the end of time."
"NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO !" Jo screamed. She really did not know her curses. As I sung the spell, the dream-world that Jo had made crumbled around me and I fell into a deep sleep; waiting until the moment Kendall would kiss me.

"Annie is now out of the dream," my future brother stated. Besides the witch, we all sighed with relief. While we were on Avalon, Merlin told me that this spell had been placed upon her years ago; she could only be woken up by the reincarnation of her love, Luke.
"How do I wake her up, bitch?" Jasper had captured Jo for me; and I was going to make sure that Jo would die (and she would die after Annie woke up, if things worked out the way they were supposed to) and never return. Annie had told me that Morgan Le Fey and Mordred usually reincarnated into different witches and wizards.
"I don't know or care," the witch said; her mind, however, was a different story. Hopefully my Kendall doesn't realize that this is the same exact spell that I cast on Merlin all those lifetimes ago.
"That settles it," Emmett yelled, "You're super annoying, stuck-up, along with being an idiot! Kendall cannot live without Annie, and vice versa." God, I love Emmett when he starts on one of his rants (of course, Edward does a better rant than anyone besides Annie.) because he will start to get physical during them. Yes, Kendall, Jo does deserve some form of punishment, Edward thought to me.
Not just any punishment, she deserves death. According to the Law, she will die; painfully. If Jo is the reincarnation of Morgan Le Fey and Mordred, the body will be taken to Traitor's Hill to be burned. Edward shrugged at that. "If it is the Law, then it has to happen," Edward said.
"WHAT?!" Jo was furious; did she seriously think that I was hers? Edward nodded at that thought.
"Jo Trapper, I have never been, nor ever will be, yours; so get that ridiculous notion out of your head before I place ANOTHER charge of illegal use of magic on you," I told her. I leaned forward and kissed Annie's beautiful, full lips. I hoped that there was no amount of time I would have to wait until the kiss took effect; I needed to see her beautiful sapphire blue eyes with those flecks of gold that seem to melt when she and I are together on our floor in the house alone. "James, take the idiot witch to Traitor's Hill and burn her; everyone else, can you please leave our floor at least." I needed privacy with Annie to just fall apart.
*Annie*
One hour later
I opened my eyes to find Kendall's head on my abdomen, his hand holding mine tightly. It seemed that he had fallen asleep; I smiled remembering all the visions I had of Edward watching Bella fall asleep. I started to remove one of my hands from his grip, so I could move his hair out of my field of vision so I could see his god-like face, when he started to cry. "Baby," I called out to him, stroking his cheek as I talked to him. "Baby, please wake up. I want to see your beautiful hazel eyes."
He slowly woke, thinking, Annie, please wake up. I cannot bear being without you. Even if Jo had managed to tear us apart by killing you; I would have avenged you then committed suicide. My darling Faerie Queen, my darling Titana, I need you. Then he opened his eyes thinking that he would find mine still closed. As soon as he saw that my eyes were open, Kendall immediately attacked my lips with a kiss that contained a fervor that nothing could rival. I loved that he was reading my thoughts at that very moment, because my lips were busy and I needed more. I wanted him to feel the love that I had carried for him since 1918, when I first saw him in May of that year, and I still carry and will continue to carry until the end of time. "My love," he said while kissing my neck, "my life, and my home; please never make me go through that again."
"Never again," I vowed, "Never again, if I can help it." My breathing was labored because I was breathing him in; I loved his scent so much because it reminded me of better times, happier ones, times that have happened and ones that are yet to happen.
"Mom came when she heard that you had been shot. She has stayed in the guest suite in the basement. I asked her if it would be okay if I asked you to marry me now; she told me that I SHOULD ask you when you woke up. Anyways we had thought that Jo had placed a body-switching spell on the two of you."
"Jo is just not that smart," I retorted, "Each time Morgan Le Fey and Mordred are reincarnated, they become more idiotic. Last time, they convinced a young witch that I was sleeping with her older brother." I shook my head at the memory of Jane. "She had actually fixated on him," I explained before he asked. So when will you propose to me?
When I feel that you will be surprised, Kendall retorted. I smiled; he truly was learning the ways of the sorcerer.
(A/n: YAY! Jo did not pull a single thread out of place, even though she tried. In the next chapter, the dance will have already happened. I refuse to tell anyone [besides Sarah and that still is a maybe :P] when in Twilight that chapter 6 takes place in. Just remember, I absolutely loved the way that the scene was shot in the movie. [Smiles big time along with a wicked gleam in eye] I just want everyone to REVIEW this chapter and the previous ones as well. I need some muse and, to be frank, I only have 2 reviews by my cousin. [Shakes head wishing for more reviews] When I get done with Twilight, I WILL be moving onto New Moon. I hate the fact that Edward leaves; but when he comes back, the reunion is just so sweet that I start to tear up. Just so everyone knows, for me to tear up at reading something, it takes a whole lot of emotion to be poured into me. So that ending was one of my favorite endings. [The only other endings that I have teared up, or even cried because of, are the last few chapters of The Last Battle by C.S. Lewis and the final battle in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J.K. Rowling [I mean the book, not the movie]. PLEASE REVIEW! Also, enjoy life to the Big Time fullest!)
