me as a true mage would. You respect me,” Bridget says softly, with a loving smile.

“So Alex? Don’t ever change,” Leeha says passionately.

“Then I won’t,” I tell them both and smile. Bending down, I kiss both of them deeply.

Once I’m done, I look down, scowling at the archer, and say, “But I think we will need this one. I have an idea, but it means I need your help in this one, Bridget. I want to create a collar, but a special one.”

“Oh?” Both girls say at the same time, looking at me.

“The way you manipulated those vines gave me the idea. How far can you control something like that, and do you need to see it?”

Bridget looks at me thoughtfully before she answers. “I would need to see it to interact with it the first time, but I don’t think so after that. As for distance, I am not sure. “

“Well, this is what I want to do. I want to make a collar and put it around that man’s neck. But I want it so that if he doesn’t listen to me or if he tries to run away, I want it to explode with a Fire Ball and blow his head off.”

“Fucking hell, Alex,” Leeha says, but it’s not horror on her face but admiration. “You want a collar to control him?”

“Yeah, in my world we had stories that said if someone was wearing a collar like that and they went too far from where they were supposed to be, the collar would explode,” I tell her with a laugh. “But I doubt I can do that here, so I am curious if Bridget would be able to control it. But that means she would need to watch over him,” I say, pointing to the archer. “All the time.”

“Not really,” Bridget says, shaking her head.

“What do you mean?”

“Well, with your magic you can create an Elemental to watch over it for you and give it commands.”

“What?” I say, my mouth open in astonishment.

“Well, I am the primary Elemental. There are still the five Elementals. I am one hundred percent positive one of them would love to do this for you. You would need to pick which Elemental would live inside the collar. I mean, you want Fire Ball, so I assume you want Fire to live in there? I can get Earth to make the collar.” She starts to get more excited as she talks, like she has a plan that is coming together.

“Earth to make it?” I ask her, with a raised eyebrow.

“Well, we want something nice, so I would make it from metal. Say, copper? You don’t want silver or gold, or someone would kill him to get it. But copper is cheap. Ooo, I want to see how it looks,” she says, clapping her hands. “Call up Earth,” she tells me.

Laughing at her bossiness, I nod, put my hand out, and say, “Earth.”

In my palm appears a female-shaped Earth Elemental, less than half a foot high and made of grass, dirt, and twigs. She waves at me. With my other hand, I wave back.

“Hello there,” I tell her. “I need copper. Think you can get me some?”

In my head, I don’t hear a voice, as much as I get a feeling of how much I do need.

“Well,” I say, “I want to make a collar to go around that man on the ground. All the way around his neck, and about this wide,” I tell the Earth Elemental, measuring about half an inch with the fingers of my free hand. “I also want it thin but strong enough so that he won’t be able to break it off.”

“Oh, don’t worry, Alex,” Bridget says. “We will make it strong with magic, so it can be very thin.”

“Oh. What she said,” I tell the Earth Elemental, pointing to Bridget. The Earth Elemental nods and dives off my hand and into the ground as if she had just dived off a high board.

Leeha is crouching next to the human archer. “What did you use to make him sleep?” she asks me, poking him with her finger.

“I went with a Mind spell. I called it Sleeping Arrow.”

“When will he wake up?” she asks, looking up at me.

“Honestly,” I tell her, rubbing the back of my neck in embarrassment. “I have no clue.”

“You didn’t set a timer on it?” she asks, suddenly getting up, and she has a water arrow aimed at the archer.

“Does it matter?” I ask her worriedly.

She nods. “Yes. Most spells have a timer component. He might even be awake and listening to us, waiting for a time to strike!” she says.

“Bridget,” I cry. “Earth. Bind him!”

Just as I cry out, the man, who I thought was asleep, tries to get up and run, but he gets pulled down when vines pop out of the ground and surround him. He struggles, but it’s in vain. He tries to shrug his shoulders, but the vines have wrapped around and have deposited him back on the ground, where he is sitting on his ass. He continues to try to fight it, even to the point that a vein shows up on his purple face. Finally, he stops and deflates, defeated.

“You won’t get away with this,” he growls at me.

Leeha squats in front of him and says with a grin, “Ah, but we already have.”

Suddenly the man spits at her, but a wall of water intercepts it. Leeha sneers at him. “Nice try,” she says, and gets up and walks towards me with a skip in her step. She is loving this! I can’t blame her, really.

Feeling a tugging on my pant leg, I look down and the Earth Elemental is back, with a nugget of what looks like copper.

“Ah,” I say, bending down. I take the offered copper nugget, which is the size of a baseball. It’s so big that the Earth Elemental is holding it like a large beach ball, thanks to her size. “Thank you,” I
