"What do you want with us, Daniel?" Crystal inquired in a sharp manner. Although he was only a few centimeters taller than her, she did not want him to dominate her life any longer because of one of her secrets she had been hiding from her best friends.

Daniel mocked a "shocked" expression when he replied to Crystal.

"Oh no, Crystal the moron is showing everyone that she is the boss." Daniel laughed mockingly.

Two more uniform bursts of laughter came from behind Daniel. There stood Holly and Ricky: Daniel's mean friends who would make everything a living nightmare come true...

Daniel continued his monologue.

"What I want is for you to reveal your true identity to your people. Define the real Crystal Hoffman to everyone to everyone you know doesnt know this. If you don't, i will shout it out to the public and every Dark Lord will be after you."

Daniel showed a smirk,  indicating that Crystal had no choice.

"Dark Lord? What does he mean, Chrissie?" Nick asked in a soothing voice to cut the tension.

"Whatever that is, it sounds cool!" Ron burst out laughing.

Now Crystal had grown even guiltier. Her thoughts of mind had collapsed into a dark abyss full of dark energy; she could shed no light onto the good parts of her life anymore. Her mind unconsciously played into her mind what would happen if she revealed her burden. Finally saw the pros in the situation. Then it was disrupted by the illusions of the Dark Lords chasing her. She was lost in her thoughts.

Crystal had snapped out of her unfortunate virtual reality and returned to the situation. Shr drew in a deep breath and exhaled.

"Do i have to this?" Daniel was persisting on doing his unfaithful deed.

"Fine," she turned to Nick and Ron.

Sweat beaded onto her neck and leisurely fell down it.  Her heartbeat rose,  faster and faster and Crystal had thought that she was going out of control! Her legs tingled a bit. She knew that things would never be the same.

"Nick, Ron. For all these years you have not known the real Crystal Allem you've known for all these years. There is another side to me.

 She took in a deep breath and letting out some warm from her mouth onto her face. Her voice succumbed to the pressure of Daniel who pierced her dignity inch by inch.

Her voice rose. "My magi-" And before she had been keeping all the air in her throat, her legs gave way and she collapsed then blacked out before revealing herself. 
Nick and Ron came rushing to her with Nick squeezing her arm to try bringing her consciousness back but knew it of no use despite his efforts. At last, when she had moved her hand the slightest and intertwined her warm fingers with his, she breathed out the breath that she had been keeping in and brought even Daniels gang in shock and Nick and Ron in a river full of worry.
