said quickly. "You just met her, I can't belive they said she was the one to watch you" he snorted. He was getting me mad, "Well I can, shes the one who got me" I said hotly. He shrugged,dropping the subject. "So all thats true, kidnapped from home, marry a random dude, kidnapped again, now your here" he said, looking stright ahead. I stayed silent. "No way in hell I'll marry him" I sighed. Nick laughed. "Good for you, your like, 14, and I think I herd he was 18. Kinda a big age diffrence there" he said, anger hidden beneith his words. "19" I muttered. "Thats just plain wrong" he growled angerly. I looked him over, what was he? I was guessing 16. "How old are you?" I asked, just wondering outloud. He slowed his pace a bit, and looked at me. "15, and I was right about yours?" I nodded. We finally arrived at the guidance office.

All I needed to do was pick classes, I choose all the ones Alice said I would need to take, and art. When we were done, I had a new sceadual and we left. "Hey, wanna walk around a bit before house arrest?" he asked. "Can't be house arrest unless your in a house" I said, smirking a little. "This is your home now" he said back. That fimalier pang of home sickness swept over me. He saw my change in mood, and changed the subject. "So you wanna?" he asked again. I nodded, anything to forget the unforgettable.

"Okay, I know this one place, it's like a tree house almost. Its near the back of the school, In the woods" he said, already walking. I gurried to keep up. "And just so you know, Im royal too. Askvic family" he said, once I was by his side. I nodded, I still wasn't sure about all of that stuff. Then I rembered the power control class I was going to have to take. Guess now was as good as any time to ask questions. "Whats that one class, power control?" I asked, having to look up to see his face. He looked down at me. "Royal, werewolves, shifters, whatever you wanna call us, we can control a certain elemeant. Like, Fire, Air, Water, or Earth. Sometimes it can get out of control if you wrn't properly trained. How bout' you, anything catching on fire?" he joked. "Nope, no fires" I said. Not yet, anyway. I could proubly do all those things. "Is it possible to have all?" I asked. "Not that anyone knows of, why?" he seemed skeptical. "Just wondering" I said, not giving away anything.

"Well, we can see when we get out of this prison" you could tell that he kinda did think of it as prison. It was closer than I thought, we walked down a short hall, then took a right, and out a door. We walked in silent untill we reached the beginning of the woods. "I found out the tree house is the only one without camras" he said. We walked through what looked like a rarly used path, then came to the tree house. It was slightly warn, the wood looked too be about 2 years old, it still didn't look too bad. There was a rope ladder hanging down from it, slightly swaying in the wind. It was proubly 30 feet high in the tree, and was the size of a small living room proubly. Nick geastured me forward, "You first". I looked up and gave him a hestaint look. "Its fine, I always go up there, and if you fall, I can break your fall" He said grinning. I shook my head and started climbing up. It felt unsteady beneith my feet, and I waited for it to stop before I continued. Then a thought came to mind. Maby I could make it stop moving. Maby I could focous more gravity on it, so the ends would strighten to the earth. I calmed, and imagined it. It worked, kinda. It did stop moving mostly, only swaying once or twice. I knew Nick was right behind me, but I wasn't sure if he noticed. When I finally reached the top, I climbed into the tree house and pulled Nick in after me. "See not that bad" he said, looking out. " Yeah" I sighed, leaning aginest one of the walls.

I hadn't relized how nervous I was. Not about climbing, but just being up here. "What are you?" I asked, the first question that popped into my head. "Hu?" he tilted his head, confussed. "You know, eleament" I explained. "Oh well Im..." he ran his hand through his hair, and a tree branch came in through the door, quickly, and it wrapped around my ancle. "Dont..." I warned him. He cocked a grin and the tree pulled, and i was hanging upside down. I let out a squeek of suprise and fought to get loose, then gave up. "Earth, Im guessing?" I said. "How'd you guess?" he smirked wider. "Put me down" I grumbled, trying to reach my ancle. The tree slowly set me down, and I was sitting on the floor. The tree receded. "You try" he said, sitting across from me. I layed back and closed my eyes. I scearched for a tree. I could feel the trees live, almost like a purple glow. I encourged it to move into the tree house. I opened my eyes, a vine was weaving around Nick's wrists, and I pulled. He swong in the air, looking a bit suprised.

I laughed. He didn't know half of it. "Ok, now put me down" he said, trying to sound annoyed, but he was smiling. I let the vine leave, and Nick dropped to the floor. "Thats basic stuff, watch this" he said. The whole tree house shook, and the tree it was on shot up. I half screamed, half laughed as we went up. It was like a rocket. Then it went back down, just as quickly as it wnet up, and back to the same hight is was. I doubted I could do that, when I was getting the vine to come it, the trees didn't seem like they liked me very much. "Oh yeah?" I asked, and focoused on the air around him. I focoused on the molocules, and made them slow.They stopped, and Nick looked freezing. I let them go, they didn't want me ask much eaither. "Did you just..." he looked to be in utter shock. "Yup" I said smiling. I stood up, and took a leaf from the tree. I figured if I could make somthing cold, I could make somthing really hot. I made the molocules in the leaf quicken.

The leaf burst into a small flame. Nick's mouth was hanging open, unable to speek. I don't know why, but I enjoyed suprising him. He didn't seem like the kind to be suprised very ofter. Heat didn't seem to like me much eaither. It seemed to push me away after a minute. The leaf fall in ashes. I tried water. The water welcomed me, pulling me in. I could feel the water in everything. The tree, the wood, our skin. I pulled the water from the tree house. I made it come to the floor, and onto Nick's boot. Then, I made it shoot up, and twirl in the air. Then. finally I let it go back, it seemed almost sad to leave. That took alot out of me, I noticed when I stopped. I slumpped down to the floor, the head ache comming. "How did you do that?" Nick ghasped. I shrugged. "Just felt it, and willed it. They all pushed me away, not water though" I sighed, tired. "Just don't tell anyone" I added. He was silent a moment. "Don't worry, I wont. But there should be no why your able to do all that" he said. I nodded my thanks, and put my head between my knees. "You okay?" he asked, concerned.

"Headache" I groaned. "Well lets go" he said, holding his hand out to me. I took it and stood up, winching as the head ache intenceafied. Nick looked at me worried. "Can you make it down?" he asked. I nodded, not wanting to sound weak. "I'll go first" he said, and started climbing down. I slowly made it after him. I was about half way down when the head ache got even worse, and I tumbled through the air.

I couldn't even think, it was so bad. Almost as bad as the first time. I heard Nick call out my name, and a vine wrapped around my waist. I was about 10 feet in the air. I clutched my head, not caring where I was. Nick was calling my name, and the vine dropped me, and I landed in his arms. "What happened?" he asked, setting me down. "Damnit" I muttered, not answering. He took out his phone and called someone. "Alice?" he said quickly. Great, now she'll know I didn't listen to her. He talked for a minuit, then hung up. He kneeled next to me. "Alice told me, and shes comming, she is pissed though" he said quickly. I nodded and clenched my eyes shut. My head was pounding, hard. It seemed like forever before Alice arrived. "Im going to fucking kill you Askvic" Alice growled. She took my hand and put the pills in my hand. I swallowed them quickly.

Alice was yelling at Nick now, and he was yelling back. "You didn't tell me you were ganna bring her here! I need to know these things, you don't even know her, damnit!" She yelled. "Sorry for taking her away from house arrest" he said sarcasticly. "I asked her if she wanted to, and she said yes" he continued. Alice whirlled twords me, who was now standing. "I told you! Why didn't you listen? If you end up getting hurt, I'll feel guilty, and Demetri is going to kill me" she yeled, not as loudly as before. Now I felt guilty. "Im sorry...I just..." I didn't know why I did it.

"Thats right, you dont think. Hell, you don't even know him!" She huffed. I cringed back a little from how loud she yelled. "It was my idea, so shut you fucking mouth. She just got here, and she was brought into all of this aginst her will, at least let her have some fun" Nick was angry, I could tell by how harshly he spoke his words. Alice's fist swong around, and I saw it before he did, I jumpped twords them and grabbed Alice's arm. "Dont" I pleaded. She could easily shake me off, but she didn't. Her arm fell to her side as she looked at me. She could proubly see how much I didn't want anything to happen, and that I cared for both of them.

She turned away abrutly and stormed off. "If you get killed, Im blaming Askvic" She called back before being blocked from our view. I sunk to the ground and sighed. So many thoughts. The usual, about family and firends, then who is my firend, what am I, why did I do that? "You okay?" Nick asked, sitting next to me. "No, everything is wrong, Im so confussed" I groaned. He hesitantly put an arm around me. "Don't worry, you'll figure it all out. I'll be there to help" he whispered. Silent tears ran down my cheeks. If only he could help me. "Its okay, don't worry about Alice, she just cares about you. I do too" he said, trying to comfert me. He whiped the tears off my face. His finger was warm on my skin. "Thank you" I croaked out. He pulled me into his lap and I burried my face in his chest. He smelled
