Magic Guardians, by Laura Gilfillan

Chapter 1

Vernon is a mess. He has been for the past year. It's that elf girl he fell so badly for. He is pining away for her, when he should be concentrating on his college classes. So his grades are floundering, and that's really quite a shock, considering what a super-achiever my brother usually is.

He wants me to take him back. He has to have my help, because he can't do it himself. He doesn't have enough magic to work the portal. He'll be home on spring break tomorrow, and he wants me to take him to Terra for it. I have no idea how he thinks he's going to explain that to Mom and Dad. They are expecting to have him home, so they can spend time with him. Besides, he also seems to have overlooked one other little detail, which is that I'm not on spring break myself, so I would have to miss school. Not that I would mind missing school. But again, Mom and Dad would hardly approve.

Besides, I think it would be a waste of time. He'd go and have his visit, and be happy for that, I suppose. But then he'd be back to missing her again once he came back home. Unless he doesn't intend to come back home...
