Chapter 6
Magic the Unicorn
The next day Jill and her friends were
in the Mis. C's office turning in there
permission slips for that night.
OK girls, and guys, she said eyeing
Eric, today after school go home and
get all your stuff for tonight and tomorrow.
You must have a T-shirt and shorts
for tonight, she said, suddenly very
sternly, we want to keep this as safe
as possible.
Safe? Kailyn asked between giggles,
safe for who? Eric and Jill?
At that Jill stormed out of the room.
Don't worry Eric, Kily said walking
around and putting a hand on his
shoulder, we know Jill likes you.
I heard that, Jill said from
outside the door.
OK, maybe just a bit, Kily said,
walking around to the girls.
Keep trying, Jill said again.
OK, Janie said, scratching her head,
maybe just a little little bit.
Ugh! They heard Jill say from outside,
I give up!
I'll take that as a no, Eric said,
sounding little sad.
Why so sad? Mis. C asked.
Did she have to leave? Eric
asked, grinning, Because I think
she looks sexy when shes mad.
Hey thats my best friend your
talking, Janie said, walking over
and hitting him on the arm playfully.
The day went by quickly enough.
Before they knew it they were
at home packing.
Jill counted her things again
not to leave anything behind.
OK let my laptop, my unicorn
pillow, my nightgown, my CD player,
batteries, my CD, my book, some
clothes, and magic, She said picking
up the stuffed unicorn.
I had started packing my stuff when
the phone rang.
Hello? I asked.
Hey Jill, It's Kily ya ready? Kily
asked cheerfully.
Yea.
Well, me and the girls are meeting
at the store by school,ya want to come?
Sure, I just finished packing.
OK, well we'll meet you there.
OK, bye.
Bye.
I hung up the phone, finished packing,
and rushed out the door.
When she got to the video store she
saw everyone there and Eric.
Oh great I get to see the future Prince
Endymon in his PJ's. Hey he looks kinda
cute out the school uniform.
Hey guys, I said, running up to them.
Hey Jill, Katie said, eyeing Eric.
Hey come on, these insects are
killing, Kily complained, and I didn't
think to bring bug repellent.
Jill thought for a second than shouted,
OK........Go.
This was a game they sometime
played. They race to a chosen
destination and whoever gets there last
has to tell their deepest, darkest wish.
When we reached the school I
turned around to see who it was
and I was surprised to see Janie
was the last to reach school.
OK Janie, time for truths.
My one wish is that you
and Eric would come at peace.
I'm going to Mis. C's office,
I said, turning around, I don't even
want to think about that.
Chicken, Kailyn said.
Are you coming are not?
I asked, ignoring the comment.
Am I allowed to go with you?
Eric asked.
I just nodded and turned away.
They started to walk to the
school building when Kily leaned
over and said.
Man, are you shy, she said,
letting out a lit snicker.
I gave her one of my you-caught-me
looks.
Girls I caught her, Kily said grinning.
Shut up! I said, pushing her away
from me.
Caught her at what? Eric asked.
At the fact that-
I really did kick Garret when he tried
to kiss me, I lied cutting Kily off.
Jill, give it up, Kailyn said, Eric, the
girl likes you.
They walked into Mis. C's office.
Shes not here, Janie said, I guess
we stay here.
I walked over to her desk and lifted
myself onto of it.
Does anyone know if-
Girls? boy? Where are you? Mis. C
called from the hallway cutting Katie off.
Hey it's Mis. C, I said, grabbing
my bag, lets go.
When they were in Mis C's van
I asked, so where are we going?
Well, you know the pond behind
the abandoned Tokyo sugar mill? Mis. C
asked.
Hey, Katie said, why does that
sound so familiar?
I blushed as Katie remembered,
Oh yeah thats where Jill always goes
skinny dip-ping, she said as she
remembered Eric was in the car, Sorry
Jill.
Yeap sure is, Mis. C said, but i
also picked that spot becouse of the
number of times i've found Eric spying
on Jill when she went swimming.
He what!? Jill said, popping the
bubble gumshe had in her mouth.
Great, I can't even go swimming
without someone following me and
that someBODY just happens to be
ERIC!!! She said throwing her hands
up like a football field goal around her
face, Someone please indulge
me please; my life sucks!
Um lets see? Eric said, I know,
Jill look at me.
I turned to look at him as he
leaned over and kissed me.
When Jill said indulge me, I knew
she was asking someone to tell her a
joke. But i saw this as an oppurtunity.
Um lets see? I said, then
suddenly perking up I said, I know,
Jill look at me.
As she leaned over i burshed my
lips against hers.
It was meant to be a light kiss but
when she tryed to pushme away that only
encourged me more.
I heard a snapping noise but
thinking it was Mis. C's car i just
ignored it.
I leaned on her some more
so she would open her mouth; but
before my tongue could get into her
mouth. She hit me with Janie's
hair dryer.
When i didn't break lose she punched
me in the jaw with her fist.
When she did break lose she slapped
me across the face.
Eric, word of advice, Kailyn said, If
you want to live; stay away from Jill.
No Kailyn, I'll just kiss her again, I
joked.
I knew at once that was the wrong
thing to say.
She started to beat me with my pillow;
Kily joined in, too.
MERCY!!!!! I screamed at the top of
my lungs, Mercy, please.
Jill stoped hitting me with the pillow
and grinned ear to ear.
Man, Katie said, looking at Jill than
at me, now i know why Mis. C wanted to
keep this safe.
Jill's only reply was to hitting Katie
on the head with my pillow playfully.
We soon arrived at the pond. It was
a perfect day to go swimming. The sun
was shining brightly down on theh
pond which glistined in the rays of
sunlight.
OK everyone in the moter boat,
Mis. C said, stepping the boat as the
others and me hoped in.
Mis. C started the boat up
and ran it to the middle of the lake
where a dock with a tent set up
was.
I stood up and grabed my bag.
Everyone steped onto the
dock and sat down.
OK now, everyone know why
we're here right? Mis. C asked.
Yeap, Eric said, To torment Jill.
As if on cue I threw Magic at
him which bonced off his head, Idiot,
I mumbeled.
Mis. C picked up the stuffed
animal and tossed it back to me
grinning and said, Jill, touch the
end of it's horn and say transform.
I glanced quickly at the
others and shurrged. I placed my
forefinger on the tip of it's horn
and said, transform.
All of a sudden a yellow light
came out of my thumb the unicorn.
I placed it on the ground and crawled
away.
In a matter of seconds a yellowish-
whitish light had surrouned the little stuffed
animal.
I turned around to look at the others
to see a look of shock across there faces,
that was sure to be on my face, too.
I turned back to the, now huge,
ball of light as it started to fade.
When the light faded i gasped
in shock, as the others.
There in frount of me stood a
six foot, pearl-white horse. It had a
golden horn surrouned by white-sliver mane
and tail. It had two wings that you
could just tell were silk to the touch
by the skin. Between it's golden horn and
blue-violet eyes was a golden cricle. I
guessed this was were it got it's power
and energy.
I just gapped at it until I remembered
about my true life. After seeing my
childhoodfriend on the moon i remembered
who i was, what the truth about me was.
I stood up and screamed her name,
Magic!
As soon as i said her name she reared
up.
I ran over to her and threw my arms
around her neck.
As soon as i my hands cricled around
her neck a white light surrouned me.
When the light was gone i stood
stroking Magic's mane as my friends
gasped at what they saw.
Welcome back Serena, Mis. C said.
But when i turned around to look
at her I didn't see the useally brown headed
lady that always wore dresses.
I saw a gray haired beautiful lady that
had a golden, but simple, crown on her head.
She had a moon crescent on her forehead,
she had blue eyes like mine, and she had
a white silk dress on with a white bow
over her chest.
I ran into her arms, Mother! I cried.
I heard gasp from behind me; I turned
around to find everyone in their royal garments
and Eric in his Tuxedo.
Jill whats going on? Janie asked.
My name is not Jill, Mina, My name is
princess Serenity of the moon kingdom, I
said, giggling at Eric, Now Darien's,
surprised face, A.K.A. (AN: alos know
as) Serena.
I finshed with a curtsy.
A low whine came from behind me, I
turned around to see Magic.
OK, what do you want? I asked her,
moving some hair from her mane that was
on her face.
Magic lowered her head and i knew
what she wanted at once.
I placed my forefinger on the tip of her
horn and a thought came to me.
Please lets go to heaven's meadow
please, the thought told me.
Oh OK, we can go, I told her.
I jumped on her back.
Let's go, I said, as the others climbed
on her back.
Where are we going? Kily, who was
now Raye, asked.
To heaven's meadow of course, I replyed
as my mother climbed on magic's back.
Who's meadow? Kailyn, who was now
Ami, asked, eyeing me.
I laughed as I said, I'll explain on the way,
don't worry...........
