Chapter one  

Galaxy 

Galaxy sat crisscross on the couch throwing popcorn into her mouth. “This is boring,” Galaxy moans. On the T.V was a soccer game. “Go outside or somethin’” Galaxy’s dad replies, without taking his eyes off the screen, he was pretty much obsessed with it. Galaxy rolls her eyes. “Fine. I will.” Galaxy gets up and pulls on her shoes. “Call me when the game is over!” She called over to her Dad. Her dad gave a slight nod before looking back at the T.V. “SCORE!” Galaxy rushed out the door. She started tree counting, she couldn’t help it, it was a habit. On the 15th tree, she saw nothing-literally nothing, a big black hole was in the middle of the tree. “What the..” Galaxy muttered. She started walking away from the tree-it was no use. The black hole acted like a real one and was pulling her in. “WAIT-HELP ME!” Galaxy screamed before getting engulfed by the black hole.Galaxy found herself on a soft field. Great, now what? Galaxy thought grimly. She was laying next to a tree. She started to dust herself off, when a voice spoke. “Uh, Hello?” Galaxy looked to her right and saw green haired person with wings-a fairy? Galaxy screeched then passed out. 

Chapter two

Fenella

                                              Dear, 

                                                   Guardians 

I was doing my job guarding the portal that separates our world with another when an intruder came through the portal. Come as soon as possible.

                                                     From, 

                                                                   The nature guardian, Rose.  

“What nonsense”. Muttered Fenella the ice guardian as she walked toward the lake. “Wathca doing”? She asked Lilly, the water guardian who was also there.  “What?” Lilly got out of the water, and sat on a rock. 

“Did you find anything cool”? Fenella askes her. “Actually yes”. Replied Lilly. “Look, it’s kuro”! Fenella shouted as she pointed to the sky. Lilly took out her tablet and said “Looks like Rose needs us ASAP”! As they rushed toward her they found the imposter lying on the old wooden tree stump. “Look”! Screamed Lilly. “She’s the twilight guardian”! Exclaims Flame the fire guardian. “Wait”, points Rose, “she came from the other side of the portal. “This only happens on every 7th full moon”. Explained Fenella. “So..do you wanna see the Kuro’s”? Asked Fenella. “Sorry I’m late”. Trailed a voice from behind. It was Aria the air guardian. 

 Chapter 3 

                                Galaxy 

Galaxy shot up and mumbled “Where am I ?” She looked up, and saw two people looking at  her.”WHO ARE YOU!?” She screamed. “We’re the guardians”. Replied Aria calmly. “Wait..I think I know you guys”. Recalled Galaxy. “Your Aria, your Lilly, your Fenella, your Flame and your Rose”. Said Galaxy. All of them gasp.”How do YOU know OUR names!?”  Flame asks, slightly screaming. “Are you kidding! You guys have your show called   The Guardians”. Exclaims Galaxy. “I watch your show all the time”! Screams Galaxy. “Thanks”. Chuckles Rose shly. “Well it was fun meeting you guys”, says Galaxy,” but I really need to get home”. She sticks her hand through the portal  hoping it would take her home, but instead it acts like a forcefield and blocks her. When she turned around all the fairies had flown away. “Wait for me”! She called, but no one seemed to hear. Galaxy darted around the flowers and rocks, and got to the fairy’s, panting. “Hey...why didn’t the portal let me go back?” Fenella turns around, and shrugs. “I don’t know. Try a different one.” She says. 

“A DIFFERENT ONE? Where am I going to FIND THAT!?” Galaxy screams.

“Maybe in the candy region…” Aria says. Lilly shakes her head. “No, the gingerbreads there are pretty mean.” Aria nods. “Oh yeah,what about the ice?” Fenella suggests. “ARE YOU CRAZY?!”  Screamed Rose. “The Snow Queen will kill her!” Galaxy stood still. “Is there a stupid region?” She muttered. Rose turned around. “Yes, there is, the people there are preety stupid and dumb, they would think a portal is hole on the ground, so thats not the best choice.''Rose states.“Yeah, now what about a...portal region?” Galaxy says hopefully. All the fairies look at each other and shake their heads, except for Lilly and Fellna.

Hmm… I think there’s one in the water land” says Fenella.”But in order to get there you must complete Athena's Quest, which incoulds goblins and tons of sea monsters you must defeat.” explains Lilly. “And Lilly, me and Aria will help her on this quest”. Added Fennella, giving a straight glance at Rose. “But first you need to pick your pet”. Says Aria trying to change the topic. Four animals hop from out of a bush. There stood a dragon, a unicorn, a tiny yeti and a snow wolf. “I choose the snow wolf” exclaims Galaxy. Everyone looks sad except for Fenella and Lilly and Aria.They give each other a high-five.

               Chapter four: Rose.

“I don’t know much, but you guys are crazy!” Rose cries. “Galaxy’s a newbie!” Rose looked over her shoulder and saw Galaxy playing with her snow wolf. “Her name will be…..” Galaxy ponders. “Alaska!” Lilly exclamies. Rose sighs. “Seriously?” Galaxy butts in. “That’s perfect!” She shouts. Suddenly from out of nowhere all of them heard flapping. Fennela grinned as the fairy came into view. As her feet touched the ground,everyone ‘ahhed and oohed ‘ at her beauty. “This,” said Fennela, “is the ice queen’s servant”. Rose gasps. “Oh my god! What does she want?” Aria says. “Hello, I’m here for Galaxy Windstorm,” She read. “BTW, by the way, My name is Crystal Iceshard.” She said.  “Why do you want her?” Rose asked. Crystal turned to her. “I can not tell you, for that information is restricted.”  “WHAT? Do you think we're some sort of SPIES!” Screams Rose. “Oh wait… I also want Fennella to know that she is no longer allowed near the ice kingdom”. Recalled Crystal. Suddenly from out of nowhere came an icy blast, and hit straight at Crystal freezing her into a block of ice. “She got what she deserved”. said Fennella and then flew away with Rose closely trailing. Again Galaxy ran after them. Through the flower bed, on the stony bridge, across  Miller park.

 Halfway though downtown, Galaxy felt more body weight gaining on her. When she turned around to look, she found a beautiful pair of purple wings on her back. As she flew up to join the gang she saw another fairy coming towards them. “Look out”! She called.  But she crashed into the fairy. “Ow..” Galaxy rubs her head. “Watch where you're going”. He mutters and flies away. “ No one messes with my friend and gets away with it!'' screams Lilly as she traps him in a water bubble. “How did you find us”? Askes Rose. “And how were you able to fly up with us”. Askes Fenella to Galaxy.”With these”. Explain Galaxy as she points to her wings on her back. Everybody would have been glued to the beauty of her wings for about… 10 minutes if it weren't for all of them hearing the helicopter flapping from above.

Chapter 5 

                                         Jack 

Flying a Helicopter is always refreshing. The wind blowing, and the miles and miles of land, with an amazing view!  Jack thought, steering the helicopter. “Sure, even though I’m a fairy and I can fly, I  get such a better view from the helicopter”! He thought again. Jack sat back and relaxed. Nothin’s better than this!  He  stopped for a minute to take a handful of the breathtaking view. “Wow,” He said, To no one's particular intrust.  Peeking through the window, for some fresh air, he stopped to look at a lovely ice guardian talking to a beautiful nature guardian. And was that a midnight guardian to her side? No it can’t be! He steered the helicopter down towards them, to get a closer look. Whoops. Looks like they heard the helicopter and now they’re looking at him. Jack shrugs and heads  down.  “Would you like a ride”? He asked them. They nod. He throws down a ladder. When the midnight one came up he gave her an amulet. “Take it”, Jack assured her,” you might need it in the future”.  “So… “, the nature guardian asks,” Has anyone got any stories”?  The ice guardian raises her hand. “Yes,” she, with his voice trembling.  “So” she says. 

 “Once upon a time there was a time where there were witches and wizards.  Now, the ice region didn’t like them because of all the mean stuff they did.         Once they turned a snow wolf into a toad”.  “That's horrible”! Said the midnight guardian clutching her snow wolf tight. “ Then there was a time where they took our power. So one day we planned on taking revenge”.   “I can tell the story from here”.   He said.  “We started to make it hail to prevent their P.E classes, but it looked like we were doing them a favor. Then we buried their school in snow. But that made them shut down for some time and the kids got a break. After that the queen called all out war. One day when they were doing music they left their window open. We let a giant snowball go in and then it started a cold. This time they were gone for good”.  “Oh look '', pointed out the  nature guardian,” we’re here”. He dropped them off. By the looks of it, it looked like he was sure gonna miss them.

  Chapter 6 

                        Galaxy 

               “Thanks.” Galaxy said, as she jumped off the helicopter. “No prob,” The boy says. “This is my job after all.” He replies. The boy got out of the helicopter and landed on the ground. “Is it okay if I stay for sometime”? Asked the boy. “It’s completely fine”. She replied. As they led him into their home the boy marveled at how the house looked. As he collapsed on his future bed he muttered “Man, even though I was the ice queen’s top notch adviser, I never got a bed like this''! “Who is the Ice Queen''? Galaxy asked. He got up and said “Well… she was a water tribe girl but her friends always called her names due to her white hair, so she ran away and while running she bumped into her future groom- to-be, and asked why he had fled, he replied saying that he hadn’t fled, he lived here and he was the prince of this place. She was taken to the palace, and the decision was made that when old enough the two would marry. So…. ya”.  “Oh” replied Galaxy.  

Chapter 7 Alaska

“It wasn’t the best lunch ever, but it was good”.  Replied Airia to Galaxy as they sat down in the field to play with Alaska, the snow wolf. Suddenly, out of nowhere a ton of glittery dust appeared and when it left,  Alaska was missing! All they found was a small note. Galaxy read out 

“Hello there! My name is Aruna the moon Guardian. I have stolen Alaska to challenge Aria.If you win, you guys get Alaska back, and get out. But if you lose, I get to keep Alaska for my animal collection, and you’ll never get out of my maze. Go to the haunted house on Home street to start the challenge!

Aruna Moonlight.

(P.S Aria’s is allowed to bring help). "

“Come on, let's get the others”! Called Aria. “Whoa, slow down. Are you saying I’m coming too ”? Asked Galaxy. 

“Yeah”! Replied Aria in a sassy voice. “But I just got here! '' protested Galaxy. “If we finish the challenge you’ll get beautiful purple hair”! Singsonged Aria. Galaxy loved the thought of her having purple hair. “Okay”, she said, “ let’s go”! When they told the gang this, the boys flipped out. “Nah,” Jake had said. Galaxy made a confused face. “Why not”? She asked. “Well it’s a complicated backstory”. Replied Lilly. “Especially with these two over here”. Added Fenella nugging Aria and Flame with a chuckle. “Stop acting like you're my mom! '' screamed Aria, marching out the wooden door, with Flame closely trailing behind her. The gang was just about to chase after them, when Galaxy asked them about the backstory. “I hate humans for their curiosity” muttered Rose. “Well, someone’s gotta stay to tell her the story”. Replied Fenella. Instantly Rose shot up from the ground, and immediately replied, “I can’t stay because I have to take care of the pixies in the magic garden”! Not soon after that everyone left except Fenella and Jack, oh and not to forget about our Galaxy! “We have to fly after them”. Whspired  Jack. “But just look at Galaxy’s eyes”! Insisted Fennela. Jack took a glance at Galaxy’s eyes, only to see her wear the famous ‘puppy eyes’ look. Jack couldn’t resist it and sighed. “Okay, but I'll tell you it while we’re flying to get them”. Jack replied. Galaxy nodded, and they started to fly.  

 Chapter 8

                     Galaxy 

Galaxy peered down at the grass below. “So.. um, when are you gonna tell me their backstory?” asked Galaxy.  Jack turned to her and sighed. “It’s gonna be long, okay.” He replied . “Are you sure you’re okay with that?” He asked. Galaxy nodded. He hung his head, muttering something, and then turned back and smiled, even though it was obvious to see he was glum. “Ok.” He said.  He took a deep breath and started to narrate.  “Well, Aria and Aruna had quite a history. They were actually around 5, I think. 

 Aria was pretty shy as a kid, while Aruna was big and outgoing. Not a perfect match, as you know. Anyways, Aruna invited Aria to some party of hers, Aria was pretty excited, but when she got to the party, she felt left out. Instead of talking to Aria, Aruna talked to a lot of other people, the only thing Aruna said to her was when they were giving goodie bags, and she only said “thank you for coming”! Now, as you I told you before, Aria was really shy so she didn’t say anything, but when she looked inside her goodie bag, all she found were some chocolates and a note saying, thank you! Aria looked around the room, and she saw people getting teddy bears, puzzles and much more. She thought for a moment, “maybe I got the wrong bag”, she looked at the tag, and it said, to Aria Breeze. That was her. Even though she was shy, she now was fuming with anger. She marched up to Aruna and tore the bag in front of her. And before Aruna could say anything she grabbed Aruna by her collar and screamed at her saying “why did you give me this”, and then showed her the box of chocolates. Aruna rolled her eyes, “I used up the budget, so I had to get you the cheapest thing.” Aria was pretty shocked, and shoved her bag into Aruna’s face. “You have it.” Then Aria stomped out of the room, leaving Aruna dripping with chocolate, yelling, “Come back here! I’ll get revenge!” So yeah, that's basically it.” Jack finished.

Galaxy was shocked. “Aruna is terrible!” She fumed. Jack shrugs. “Oh, look!” He pointed. “The haunted house!” Galaxy glanced at the dark brown house, covered in moss and vines. It was pretty creepy. Aria was standing there, Flame was closely behind. “Galaxy! Oh, hi!” “Um, what about me?” Jack mumbled. “Oh sorry, Jack.” Aria blushed. “Well, Galaxy, Are you ready to go?” Galaxy nodded, “I’m ready to get purple hair and find Alaska!” Galaxy announced. Aria chuckled. “You guys stay here for look-out,” “Why?” Asked Jack. “‘Cause I don’t know what game Aruna’s playing. She may as well be cheating. Me and Galaxy will go. After all, Aruna is my enemy and Alaska is Galaxy’s wolf. Not her wolf for her stupid animal collection.” Aria muttered loudly. Galaxy grabbed Aria by the hand and dragged her into the maze. “Well, that's some courage Galaxy has there,” Flame chuckled. “Yeah,” Jack agreed.

Chapter 9:

Aruna and Aria.

Aria walked along with Galaxy down the long hall. Aria thought of Aruna’s disgusting face. She was so horrid! Why did she need to steal Alaska? Galaxy skipped along, muttering things like, “Alaska, were coming,” and, “That will show Aruna! Ugh.” Aria shot glances at Galaxy’s wings. They were long and flutter and sparkly. She had to be some sort of Guardian! Galaxy stopped. “Look, a sign.” Aria scanned the sign. “ ‘Hello, Galaxy and Aria! Few more rules! If I win, I also get Galaxy’s wings! They are simply beautiful! Second, If you win, you get Alaska, and Aria gets a pet of her choice from my Animal collection. I will give you an hour to get out. If you don’t make it, Alaska and Galaxy’s wings are mine. Plus, you have to stay in my dungeon. Good luck, (Or should I say ‘bad luck!’ Haha!)’ “ Aria read. Galaxy balled her fists. “No way!” A robotic voice came over the speaker. “Timer starting now.” Galaxy shot up and ran into the maze, so did Aria. “Wait,” Aria yelled. “We need a strategy!” “What?” Galaxy asked. 

Aria closed her eyes, imagining a long, long, long rope. She opened her eyes, and saw the wind blowing a rope toward her. “Yes!” Aria exclaimed. Galaxy’s eyes were wide with shock. Aria tied it around herself and Galaxy. “Let's go! Onward!” Galaxy nodded, and tugged the rope. They began.

“30 minuets remaining.” The voice blasted. Galaxy glanced up. “Oh no!” Aria untied the rope. “Wait here Galaxy,” Aria grabbed the paper floating in the sky along with the pencil, and floated up. Before they went in, Aruna temporarily disabled their flying powers, yet, she forgot Aria was the Guardian of air. Aria looked around for the exit. She found it. The wind was getting weaker. She quickly mapped it down, and got to the ground beside Galaxy before the wind gave out, and she came tumbling down. Galaxy hugged Aria tight. 

“Amazing, Aria!” Aria blushed. “Thanks Galaxy.” After that, getting out of the Maze was easy with a map. But still long and confusing. “One minute remaining.” Galaxy looked at Aria. “Run!” She screamed. “Wait!” Aria grabbed Galaxy by the waist, and the wind pushed them forward like a jet. The wind eventually gave out though. And Aria and Galaxy sprinted toward the finish. “5...4….3…..2….” The voice droned on. Galaxy screamed and the world seemed to flip, then suddenly, they were at the finish. “1...0..” The whole maze crumbled down, down, down. Galaxy looked at her hands. “Did I do that?” Aria nodded. “You did! You learned how to teleport!” “Cool!” Galaxy said. Aruna came out, holding a squirming Alaska. Alaska barked in delight at the Galaxy. “Alaska!”  “Well, wow. You made it.” Aruna said, setting down Alaska. While Galaxy was playing and smothering Alaska, Aruna muttered “Well, I guess you can choose an animal”. Aruna was just about to show Aria the collection, when Aria stopped her. “I don’t want some stupid animal, I just wanna know, why the heck you brought me chocolates when people were getting teddy bears' '! She said. Aruna’s face turned red with embarrassment as she turned away. “I was a bit greedy, and mean. I guess…”Aruna admitted. “Tell me your story.” Aria instead. “Then maybe I’ll forgive you and I’ll choose an animal.” Aruna nodded.

 “Well, I was getting ready for my party, and my mom asked if I wanted to get gifts for everyone. I said yes. I didn’t really like you, sorry Aria, so I went and bought everyone something expensive. When I got to you...Well, My budget was over, and I still was mad at you. So I grabbed my Chocolate box and put it in your bag.” Aruna breathed deeply. “Sorry, Aria.” Aria held a hand. “I forgive you.” Aruna grinned. “Thanks.” 

                She took it.

Chapter 10:

Galaxy.

Galaxy looked at Aruna and Aria, hugging Alaska. “I’m happy you’re friends again,” Galaxy exclaimed. Aruna glanced at Galaxy. “What Guardian are you?” She asked. Galaxy froze, and shook her head. “No way! I came from a normal place.” Aria nodded. “I was thinking she was a guardian too, Guardian of the universe. Which is quite surprising. Considering the Guardian of the universe is the most powerfulest guardian, and she hasn’t been seen for over a century!” Aria whispered to Aruna. Galaxy shot up. “What?” “Oh nothing.” Aruna lied, “Well, Guys, wanna get out? Plus, Galaxy, you may be a guardian so I will be doing some research.” “Awww,” Galaxy whined. “Fineee. See you later, Aruna.” Aria gave a stiff nod to Aruna, then flew off with Galaxy. 

Galaxy had been thinking about it a lot this past few weeks. Thinking while flying, even. “Ow!”  Fenella cried for the seventh time. “Sorry,” Galaxy says. “What’s up, Galaxy? It seems like you have something on your mind.”  Fenlla notes. “Oh, It’s nothing,” Galaxy lied, crossing her fingers behind her back. Fenella stared at her for quite some time, before flying off. Galaxy has been thinking about Aruna, her being a Guardian, her other world, and the next adventure to come. Galaxy has been quite bored this past few weeks. Galaxy grumbled, and flew off to get some pancakes. Rose’s pancakes were the best. Galaxy sat at the table in the very big Guardian Castle, where Rose, Fenella, Lilly, Flame, and Aria. Jake and Galaxy were visitors, but Jake was planning on staying for some time. Galaxy didn’t know what she’s going to do. The waitress came. “What would you like,” She asked, holding a pen and a pad. “Sprinkle pancakes, with extra syrup please.” Galaxy ordered. The waitress nodded, and scurried off.Galaxy sighed, and put her cheek against the cold, marble, table. 

 Rose appeared, and sat down next to her. The waitress came again, and Rose ordered a plain bagel with a lot of cream cheese. The waitress left.”Galaxy?” She asked, softly. “Yeah.” Galaxy muttered. “You’ve been acting,” she paused, “off.” Galaxy shot up. “I’m Not,” Galaxy said, annoyed. Rose plainly looked at her, munching on her bagel. Galaxy got her pancakes, but right then, she wasn’t feeling like it. It was probably cold. Galaxy stormed off. “Wait, Galaxy!” Rose called. “You forgot your pancakes!” Galaxy didn’t bother answering or looking back. The pancake was left there, un-eaten. 

Galaxy laid in bed, staring at the computer screen. Aruna sent an email. ‘Ready for an adventure Galaxy? Bring your friends, we're going on a trip, to figure out about you.

                            Love, your friend, Aruna the Moon Guardian.’ 

Galaxy read, immediately excited.

They were finally going to find out about her! And, they were going on an adventure! Galaxy sprinted down the hall, screaming, “GUYS! GUYS!” All the guardians, including Jake, rushed to her. “What?” Rose asked. “Look what Aruna said!'' Galaxy replied, shoving the computer into their face. They read the email, their eyes widened in shock. “Well, we better get packing!” Flame exclaimed. Galaxy nodded, rushing to her room, and stuffing all her belongings in this cute galaxy background with a cute dog on the front suitcase. Alaska waddles up to her, looking at her with big eyes. “Yes, of course you can come, Alaska!” Galaxy said, hugging her wolf. She grabbed her backpack, and put Alaska inside, with her head peeking out. Alaska barked in delight at the tiny, warm space. Alaska curled up for a catnap. Galaxy sprinted down stairs. Everyone was standing with a suitcase in hand. “Let's go to Greenland,”Aria says. “What about the luggage?” Rose asks. “I just can not carry this!”Rose gestures toward her suitcase. Aria glanced at Galaxy. “Galaxy can teleport us,I guess. Probably because she knows the area.” Aria states, tossing a magic ball from side to side. “She can teleport?! That’s like, a legendary move!” Flame says, astonished. Galaxy nodded, embarrassed. “Well, then, what are we waiting for?” Jake asks. “Let's go.''Galaxy concentrated all her energy toward Aruna’s castle . A picture that looks oh so real appeared in her mind. Then, flash, They were there in seconds. Luggage and all.

 “Told ya so,”Aria said in a sing-song voice. Flame grumbles. “Mhm.” Galaxy stared at the castle. She actually teleported! And, somehow, Alaska was still napping in her bag. “Oh, hi guys!”  Aruna waved from the front of her castle. “So this is the girl who was mean to you?”Fenella whispered loudly. Aruna blushed. “Come in, come in.” She said. When Fenella passed by, she threw her coat at her. Fenella just brushed off and stepped on Aruna’s foot. Aruna gave a sharp glance at her, and  Fenella admitted her mistake, and trudged down the dining hall.  Aruna warmly welcomed everyone, and got to work in the kitchen. When Aruna left for the kitchen, it was silent for some time, and after six minutes, Lilly broke the silence saying “I smell something a little burnt in the kitchen, I’m gonna go check it out”. The group nodded, and Lilly got up from the table to join Aruna in the kitchen. After fifteen minutes, Aruna and Lilly came out of the kitchen holding the most delicious and fanciest meal Galaxy had ever seen. “Wow, this is delish”! Said Fenella as she hogged the Miso soup. “I agree with Fenlla, I especially love the sushi”! Agreed Rose. “Thank you all for the compliments, but the credit goes to Lilly'', said Aruna, “she made most of the dishes''. “How ‘d you learn to make the Udon and the Moussaka''? Asked Jack. “I used to work at a Japanese restaurant, and part time at a greek one”. Replied Lilly as she spun the spatula around her finger.

 “Oh and not to forget that I used to work at an italian restaurant with Fenella, and an all South american one ”.  She added.  Fenella nodded. Everyone else in the dining hall stared at Lilly in astonishment, with their mouths wide open. “Well anyways I’ll let you guys spend a night or two here and we’ll hit the road.” Said Aruna That night, when everyone was getting into bed Galaxy asked Aruna ``where are we gonna start”? “We’ll probably start somewhere in the pacif ocean, there’s supposed to be an underground, or should I say underwater  temple, or some sort of ancient building that should tell a couple little clues about you.” Replied Aruna. Galaxy nodded and got comfy in her guest bed. 

The next morning the breakfast was even more delicious than last night's dinner! Aruna and Fennela made French toast, breakfast burritos, hash browns, coffee cake, cereal with fruits, scrambled eggs, waffle with syrup,  plain bagels with butter for Rose, and pancakes with  sprinkles and extra syrup for Galaxy, it was basically a buffet. “Rose told me that you didn’t eat it that night at the restaurant”. Replied Fenella. “As they say breakfast is the most important meal, so dig in''! Said Aruna. Galaxy hungrily chomped on the breakfast feast and everyone else did too! Suddenly, after a couple minutes after the breakfast feast, Alaska was pounding at the door. “Looks like Alaska wants to go outside and play”. Said Galaxy. “It’s a little cold right now, Alaska needs to wait until lunch”. Replied Aruna. Galaxy nodded and told Alaska to wait. Alaska obied, and came away from the door, but she really wanted to go outside. “Maybe you can play a game with her inside the castle, maybe hide and seek”. Suggested Lilly, seeing that Alaska was sad. “We can all play that game”! Added Jack. Galaxy nodded. “Who wants to be the seeker?” Asked Aruna

Lily and Rose shot their hands up almost immediately. “What, you don’t want to be alone in my castle?” Aruna jokes. “Last time I checked, there weren't any ghosts, perhaps the dungeon, though.” Lilly glared at Aruna. “Well, then, why don’t you be a seeker with me and Rose, Aruna?” Aruna nodded. “Sure, I’d love to keep you guys company. “Well, then,it’s settled!” Flame claps his hands together, and turns to Lilly, Aruna, and Rose. “Team ARL, start counting!” Lilly nods. Everyone rushed off to find a hiding spot while team ARL started counting. “25...26...27...28...29...30! Ready or not here we come” Aruna shouts, Lilly gazed around. “Aruna, you cover the first floor, Rose, you cover the 2nd floor, I will cover the third,” Lilly instructed. “We’ll get everyone faster.” Aruna and Rose ran off. Lilly started to search. She pushed the tall scarlet door aside and searched around the room. Lilly sighed, and a cold wind blew past. Was it Aria? Or did someone leave the door open? Lilly had a bad feeling, but shook it off. 

Aruna was looking around the places where people hide most, or basically, the good hiding spots. Aruna was confused when she checked the WHOLE first floor to see that nobody was there! Shouldn’t she know her own castle? She sat in a chair and stared at the curtains. She thought to look there, but she remembered that she already did that in the beginning. “Well, there’s no harm to check again”. Muttered Aruna to herself. She got up and pushed the curtains aside. Nope, no one there. Suddenly Aruna remembered that in the master bedroom there was a walk-in closet that had a secret room. Someone could have found it! She rushed to the bedroom and pushed the creaky wooden door aside. She went into the walk-in closet. The walls were a light shade of purple, which was very unusual because, unlike most of the castle, it looked like it had just been painted.  Only Aruna and Aria knew how it stayed like that. Aruna put her hand to the wall. She started to feel the closet, and then she felt a dent in the wall. Immediately, she started to hum a song. It was the most beautiful song anyone had ever heard. Finally, the door opened, and Aruna stepped inside.  The door opened into a dark room. The only light there was, were the torches on the wall. The ceiling was so close to the floor only, pixes could stand up straight. 

 Aruna got down on her knees and started to crawl. While crawling she thought “Only I know the secret song, so how could anyone go down here”? Considering the logic, she was about to turn around and get out of there, when she heard a voice. She turned around to find a pixe! The pixe was buzzing, but Aruna couldn't understand her. Noticing this, the pixe grabbed Aruna by some of her hairs, and dragged her. After what felt like an hour, they reached the place the pixe wanted her to come. There stood a black door with symbols on it. One looked like air, one like fire, one like water, one like flowers, one like snow, one like a blizzard , a moon, and stars +sword. Then, in the middle was a hole. The pixe took the amulet from around her neck, and placed it in the hole. The 

amulet was tiny, and hole was big, so Aruna didn’t think that it would fit. But amazingly, the holem shrunk in size so that it fit the amulet perfectly! The door opened, and as soon as the steeped inside, the pixe became Galaxy!

Aruna was about to blurt a million question at her, but Galaxy stopped her saying “There’s no time to explain, Aria’s in trouble”!   Aruna fowelled Galaxy to a cliff, and below it there was a pool of lava! They found hands on the cliff. Aruna peeked down to see whose hands it was , and found Aria, struggling to stay on. Aruna and Galaxy tried pulling her back on the cliff, but it was no use. Aria’s feet slipped, and she was heading for the pool of lava. Aruna started go cry, but Galaxy wouldn’t bear to lose another friend. She threw her hands out and made a lava buble. Aria landed inside of it, and Galaxy brought it up. Aria collapsed onto the shore, and got back up on her feet, only to find an amazed Aruna, and a very tired Galaxy. Aria was going to thank Galaxy for saving her life, but Aruna replied, “She fainted, please don’t disturb her”. Aria said that she could ride the winds to them there, but Aruna pointed to a nearby elevator, and requested that they go back on that. Aria nodded and all three got in the elevator. (Aruna had to carry Galaxy).  

After a couple of minutes the elevator came on the first floor, and the doors opened with a screech. Galaxy woke up, and muttered something. Then turned and saw Aria and Aruna. “Oh! Did I lose?” The commotion of them talking about what happened brought everyone to them.”Hey, what happening?'' Asked Flame. “I,I don’t know”. Replied Galaxy. “How about you go and rest from all that magic”. Exclaimed Aruna. Galaxy nodded her head, and was about to go upstairs to her guest bedroom, when Aria reminded Galaxy something.“I forgot, I promised I’d make your hair purple after we finished the maze”. She said, hitting herself on the head. Aria waved her finger, and in seconds, Galaxy’s hair turned purple! “Thanks!'' Replied Galaxy as she went up the stairs, trying to make sense of what had happened to her. Then it was Aruna’s turn to hit herself on the head. “I forgot, I promised you to pick an animal out of my collection”! She exclaimed. Aruna guided Aria, leaving the other to wonder what they were talking about. A few minutes later Aruna & Aria returned to the group. In Aria’s arms was a sleeping barn owl! 

Everyone had turns petting her one by one!  After everyone got a chance to pet Aria’s new pet, Aria put her in a cage and took her to her guest bedroom. After Aria put the owl away, everyone sat around the dining table. Before Aria & Aruna could tell what happened to them and Galaxy, Rose asked “What are you going to name your new pet”? “I will name her Agatha”! Replied Aria. Everyone clapped, because they loved the name!  “So”, Aruna sighed, “without further ado, it’s time to tell you guys what we were talking about”. And thus, Aruna and Aria talked about what had happened. They narrated how Galaxy had rescued Aria, and how Galaxy transformed into a pixie and how she brought Aruna to the scene. After they were done everyone was talking about how surprising it was to find out that Galaxy was a lava bender, however, Jake was talking about something completely different. “I knew that the amulet would come in handy”. Muttered Jake. “You gave her the amulet”?! Exclaimed Aruna, astonished. “Yup” Replied Jake. “He gave it to her on the day we met him, I was looking”.  Added Fennella. “That’s why I felt a little chilly”! Exclaimed Jake in realization. 

“I guess I have an effect when I come across people”. She  replied, blushing a shade of light pink. Jake smiled. “I’m gonna go check on Galaxy, she must be bored out of her mind”! Exclaimed Rose. “I’ll come with you, to say thanks”. Added Aria. And thus they raced each other up the stairs to Galaxy guest bedroom. 

Galaxy was staring and the grandfather clock on the wall, watching the hands slowly tick. She sighed and wondered to herself “What happened”? Suddenly Rose and Aria burst into the room! Before Galaxy could ask “Why the sudden interruption”, They blurted out the tale of how Galaxy saved Aria. Galaxy couldn’t believe she had done it! “Agatha and I wanted to say thanks”. Replied Aria. “Who’s Agatha”? Asked Galaxy, finally  getting the chance to speak. Immediately, a little barn owl fluttered into the room and landed on her arm. Galaxy was petting and cooing at the bird, making Alaska jealous, and so, Alaska tugged at Galaxy's pant sleeve as she petted the owl. Rose was laughing, and could have watched this drama go on forever, but suddenly she felt a tap on her shoulder.
