high. I explained anyway and she nodded again. “Well, we will see you there then Aqua.” She said and with a mist she was gone.
“How do they do that?” Oskan asked me and I shrugged.
“I’m not sure; I know that I can do it.” I said and he looked surprised.
“You can? Can you take people with you?” He asked and I nodded, I had to when I was younger.
“Yes, it’s not hard. I can take any element with me to. Would you like to have the experience?” I asked and he nodded. I gripped his hand and concentrated on where I wanted to go. I pictured the four corners, one a pond, the other hot with a small fire; another windy and the other earthy. Then I told myself I wanted us to be there. With a flash we were there, the feeling was open not at all like you would think. You would think going through space it would be suffocating but it was actually very open, like flying. When we were there taking only a few seconds, Oskan looked very surprised.
“Wow, that was amazing.” He said and then we walked to the teachers. He separated and went to the fires while I walked in front of the pond beside the waters.
Chapter 5: The teachers decisions
“We are here to discuss what has happened to a water and a fire. Not to mention our best water and fire.” Edan said, starting as if his fires were the only ones there. Edan was very forceful and liked to act as though he was always the most important even though most of the time he wasn’t. He did however, again cascade of that powerful feeling. I remembered when I first came here how I had been afraid of him until my sister told me of how she trusted him. We still weren’t close friends him being a fire and supposed to repel me being a water. Besides that he wasn’t found of water he only like their power really.
Solana started talking; she was the head of the airs. Just like the other teachers cascaded knowledge and power. I had trusted her second after Yara. She had porcelain skin which had shocked me when I saw her. Her eyes were very pale to and purple. I hadn’t seen purple eyes before and they scared me as a child but after I realized why I was fine with that idea. They were pretty though, another reason why I trusted her second. “Well, I think we should hear exactly what happened first and if you don’t mind talking as if fire is the only element here.”
“Fine,” Edan replied, looking mad. He had a flash temper sometimes.
“Okay then what happened specifically Aqua?” Yara asked me and I looked at Elle.
“Elle was there to, I was not the only one to witness the event.” I told her and she nodded.
“Okay would you like to explain it Elle?” She asked being fair but Elle shook her head no. She must still be shaken. Then Yara turned to me, “You may begin.”
“When I arrived from breakfast after receiving a message from Elle there was a fire and it was close to the school. It could have been dangerous so we separated the elements, each using their specialty to stop the fire. After around fifteen minutes we realized that something was wrong, it had been growing and then diminishing the whole time. After we stopped we realized it was a spell and a distraction. We found what the distraction was for; a huge shadow was engulfing the corridor sweeping down. It made me feel hot and Elle cold. It also made me feel angry as it got close but I ignored the feeling. We ran into the sun and it kind of stopped at the edge of the hallway. I wished for it to go away with Elle and it, well, it turned into hundreds of birds.” I finished and all of their eyebrows rose.
“Well it could have been a dark spirit.” Terran said and some of the earths agreed.
“I’m not sure it could have been something else.” Edan said and Yara looked surprised.
“You’re not suggesting what I think you are, are you?” She asked and he nodded.
“It’s possible.” I saw the leaders nod as if in agreement.
“What are you talking about?” I asked and they turned to me.
“We think that it could be a reoccurrence of what killed your parents. The dark spirit inside a shadow. We thought we had gotten rid of it but it is possible that we didn’t. After all we weren’t lights, your parents were though. Of course you know that isn’t the only thing that took their lives. It only weakened them after they destroyed it which weakened them for the next thing the thing that really killed them.” Yara explained to me and Elle and I shook our heads.
“No, my parents destroyed it. Didn’t they? I know that there was only two of them and the spirit was large but that doesn’t mean anything does it?” She asked and Edan shrugged.
“We’re not sure, however I am sure that you four are all lights.” He said and Yara nodded.
“Yes, I believe the might be.”
“How do you suppose that?” I asked, confused.
“Well what is the one thing that destroys darkness?”
“Light.”
“Exactly and we believe that you and Elle could have been the ones to turn it into birds, with your inner light.”
“I think we should test them.” Edan said and Yara agreed, I wasn’t sure though.
“No, that is dangerous. What if they are hurt?” Solana asked and I silently thanked her.
“Yes, what if? I cannot have either of them hurt.” Luna said, speaking out of term.
“This does not concern you.” Terran told her and she bowed her head.
“I don’t think they will be hurt.” Edan told Solana.
“Because you think they are lights but if they are not they could be.”
“And we would interfere before that happened.” Yara tore her defense apart.
“Except you are not a light, so it may be too late.” Solana built her defense up again then Elle spoke out.
“Do we not get a part in this decision? Do not throw caution to the wind fires, especially when you do not know if it is necessary. I believe that I should get a part in my future not just you.” Elle said and some teachers disagreed only a few agreed. I decided to say something to.
“Yes of late it has seemed that you want to control our future but as you know the only one really in control of our future is us. I also believe we should get a say.” I said and more agreed knowing that both of us wanted a part. Then the boys spoke up.
“Yes they should get a say, and we should to.” Leo helped us out and more agreed.
“Why are you two here?” Terran asked him.
“Because we saw it to, we were there.” Oskan said and then continued.
“If you were there then you both should test to.” Edan said and Terran and Yara nodded.
“Well I believe we should get a say in that.”
“I second.” Leo said backing Oskan up.
“Alright fine, you will get a say. If at least two think you should then you all will if only one thinks so then you will not.” Edan said and I thought it was unfair but kept my mouth shut. “Aqua?” He started with me knowing I was undecided.
“I think we should be tested but I do not believe that we should do it right away, give us a few days to think about it and prepare.”
“Very well Oskan?” He asked and what Oskan said surprised me.
“I agree with Aqua.”
“Excellent, Elle?”
“I think that we should go with what Aqua has suggested.”
“Astounding, Leo?”
“Yes I agree with them.”
“Okay then, it is decided you will test on Monday, your instructors will show up for you instead of going to regular classes.” He told us and then we separated. I immediately went to Oskan’s side.
“How do you feel about this?” I asked him because when he answered he hadn’t looked too enthused.
“Honestly, they would have made us test for light with or without permission. I swear as soon as you turn sixteen we are leaving.” He said angrily and I was momentarily caught off guard by the way he said we. He looked down at me and smiled. “Yes I said we, that is saying that you will stay with me that long.”
“Of course I will, I just…”
“You just what?”
“I just don’t know about leaving I mean I know I should because this place limits me but I’ve been here so long. I’ve never been in one place so long.” I admitted looking up at him and he looked concerned.
“If you don’t want to leave I guess we can stay but keep in mind that I really don’t want to be here.” He said giving me a hug before leaving. Then Leo came up, I could tell that him and Elle had been fighting about something. He looked very angry, he shoved Oskan a bit.
“I hate you, and I challenge you.” He said angrily and I frowned, Oskan swung his arm out and pushed me back a little but I knew better. Leo wouldn’t start anything while I was right there, which worried me.
“Why are you angry? I have done nothing to you.”
“Oh only that you’re trying to steal my girlfriend, now she doesn’t even want me to talk bad about you behind your back but I can’t help it, I don’t like you. I guess that when I came here and stopped talking to you I decided I liked it without you, but now you’re here and messing everything up.” He spat and Oskan looked angry.
“Fine! What time and battle zone if you’re so tough?” He challenged and I tugged on his hand trying to stop him but he just ignored me.
“Tonight at six, battle zone number four.” He smirked and Oskan shrugged.
“I’ll be there.”
“No!” I said loudly, knowing that either of them could get hurt.
“Say what you want, the deal is done.” He said and they shook, officially sealing it as a red glow engulfed their hands.
“Are you insane?!” I shouted at him.
“Me? What about you? Your best friend just started a challenge with your boyfriend and you say nothing until it’s sealed. You act like you’re so afraid to tell people that you like me but when it comes to anything else you’re fearless. Do you just not like me? Why don’t you just be honest? If you don’t like me just tell me because for your information I can take care of myself.” He shouted before storming off. Some turned to look at who he was shouting at and were surprised to see me.
“Looks like I’m not the only one who can mess up a relationship.” Leo said before leaving. I walked down the hall with angry tears in my eyes. I refused to cry though, not even for anger. I bumped into Luna on the way there.
“Aqua! There you are! I cannot believe you!” She said angrily and then I realized why. “How could you like a boy that is fire and not only a fire but an uncontrolled one at that?” She ridiculed me and I got angry.
“How could I? Well only that we have an amazing connection, I wouldn’t expect you to understand that and I don’t just like him. We’re dating and we’re having a fight right now but I’m sure we’ll plow through it because I lo...” I stopped myself and then
“How do they do that?” Oskan asked me and I shrugged.
“I’m not sure; I know that I can do it.” I said and he looked surprised.
“You can? Can you take people with you?” He asked and I nodded, I had to when I was younger.
“Yes, it’s not hard. I can take any element with me to. Would you like to have the experience?” I asked and he nodded. I gripped his hand and concentrated on where I wanted to go.
