The Orb of All Magic
In 3041, UK “Miro catch!” “Got it!” Miro said. Miro falls, catches the ball, and lands on something. “Uh, Era?” Miro says, “What’s this?”  Era  came over. “Um I don’t know, it looks like some glass ball.” “Maybe it’s magic!”, exclaims Miro. “Haha!” Era says, “There’s no such thing as magic.” Miro sighs, “I guess you’re right, can I take it inside?” “Yeah, put it in your room for decoration!”, says Era. Later that night, “Mom!”, says Miro, “Can you help me reach my toothbrush!”, “Yeah, give me a minute!”, says his mom. Miro’s mom came into the bathroom and grabbed the toothbrush. “Thanks!” says Miro, as his mom walks out. As Miro and Era go to sleep, the orb glows and then stops and glows and repeats until morning.

A New Day
Miro and Era wake up and get ready for the new day. “Miro, how's the orb?”, asks Era. “It’s fine why?” Miro says. “Just asking.”, says Era as she walks out and goes downstairs for breakfast. Miro turns around and happens to see the orb glow. “Woah!” Miro exclaims, “Magic!” Miro walks downstairs for breakfast. “What’s for breakfast?”Miro asks as his dad is making waffles. “Waffles!” says his dad. “Yay!” says Miro and Era. “Guess what happened upstairs!” Miro says excitedly. “What?” asks Era. “The orb glowed!” says Miro. “Oh you're just imagining things, maybe you fell back asleep and woke up fastly” says Era. “I’m not imagining things, it really did glow!” says Miro. “Let’s eat breakfast, I guess you can show me after” says Era. “Ok!” says Miro as he eats. Once they finished eating they went back upstairs to their room. “See nothing glowing.” Says Era. “But I saw it!” says Miro. “Let’s go to school.” Says Era. “Ok.” Miro says a little down. They go outside and get in the car. “So what did you guys do upstairs?” asks their dad. “Oh nothing, just that Miro thinks magic is real.” Says Era. “Magic? Well that’s a page turner.” Says their dad. “It is! Earlier up stairs the-” Era stopped him by covering his mouth. “The what?” Asks their dad. “The air conditioning turned on automatically, I told him that’s how it works.” Says Era. “Y’know she’s not wrong Miro.” Says their dad. “Oh.” Miro says, going along with what his sister said. “We’re here! Have a good day at school!” Says their dad. “Bye!” They said as they got out of the car. Era and Miro walk into school. “Hey Cora!” says Era “Hey Era what took so long?” Asks Cora “My brother thinks magic is real.” Says Era “Oh brothers, they will believe in almost anything that isn’t real” Says Cora “Yeah they will, but I didn’t think mine would believe in Magic.” Says Era. The bell rings as they go to class. “Ok, class, what is the square root of four times 9?” Asks the teacher. A classmate raises their hand. “Yes Stella?” said the teacher. “The square root of four times 9 is 18.” said Stella. “Correct!” said the teacher. “Now student’s time for the math test” Later the bell rings for the end of school after all the classes. “Do you think you did well on the test Miro?” says his friend “I think so Lane, if not I’ll get in trouble.” says Miro. “You can’t get in trouble, you won’t be able to go to the sleepover we talked about!” says Lane. “Well, I gotta get home, bye Lane!” says Miro. “Bye Miro!” says Lane. When Miro walks out and gets in the car he waits for his sister and after that they drive home. “So what happened at school today guys?” asked their father. “We had a test for almost every class.” said Era. “It was exhausting.” said Miro. “Well let’s get home” says their father. “Ok!” they both say. After they got home they went upstairs. “Uh Era!” says Miro in his room as she goes up stairs. “Yeah?” says Era. “Hurry up!” says Miro ``Ok, but if this is about the orb I’m gon-  She pauses as she gets into the room. “Look I told you!” Miro says. “Woah you weren’t seeing things!” says Era. “Let’s call Lane and Cora.” says Miro. “Ok.” says Era as they call them on their phones. “Lane get here quick!” says Miro. “Cora get here fast!” says Era.

It’s Magic!
Lane and Cora get in the house and run upstairs. “Look at the orb!” says Era and Miro. “Woah!” says Lane and Cora. “It’s Magic!” They all say. “I can’t believe this is happening!” says Lane. “Uh guys it’s getting brighter!” says Era “Um did we do something?” says Cora “I don’t think so but I think it’s gonna explode or something!”says Miro “Run!” Says Cora. They all run downstairs except for Lane and then they hear a window break. “Guys what was that?!” The parents of Era and Miro say “I don’t know!” says Era “But I think it’s bad!” says Miro. The whole family runs upstairs, with Cora. “Guys, how did the window break!” Their parents say in a disappointing way. “I don’t know!” They all say except for Lane about to take blame even though he knows it was the orb. “I did it…” says Lane. “How?”, asks their dad. “I was throwing a bouncy ball and it hit the window.” said Lane. “Ok, Lane, you are no longer allowed in this house, we hope you learn your lesson.” says the mother. “Ok…” says Lane.

Time for an adventure!
Miro and Era are walking down the sidewalk to school and then it gets cold. “Why did it just get chilly, during may?” says Miro. “I don't know, but does the sun look a bit blue?” says Era. “Maybe it’s just the sky Era.”, says Miro. “Yeah or maybe…”, says Era. “Maybe what?” says Miro. “Maybe the orb did it.”, says Era. “Maybe you're right, maybe that’s what broke the window too, it must have hit the window trying to blast the sun or something!” says Miro. “I can’t believe this, we can literally use the orb to get powers!”, says Era. “L - let’s not Era…” says Miro “Why not?” says Era. “It’s too dangerous.” Miro said. “How?” says Era. “Well we don’t know how to control it, it’s stealing and we could be a threat to the world and maybe not just that maybe even the protector of the magic orb who had it in the first place.” says Miro. “Yeah I guess you're right let’s get to school.” says Era. Once they get to school they see Cora and Lane in the hall waiting for them at their lockers. “Hey guys!” said Era. “Hey!” Cora says. “So what happened on the walk to school?” says Lane. “We noticed that the sun had a bit of blue on the bottom edge.”said Miro. “That’s weird maybe after school we can go to my house?” said Cora “Ok!” They all say except for Cora. “Wait I’m not allowed to hang out with you guys.” said Lane. “No you're not allowed to come to our house.” says Era. “So we can go to Cora’s house.” says Miro. “smart people.” Said Lane. “After school Miro and I can get the orb.” said Era. “Ok!” says Cora. After school Era and Miro went home and went up stairs for the orb. “What are you guys doing?” Asks their father. “Going to Cora’s house!” says Miro. “Will Lane be there?” Asks their mother. “No we didn’t invite him we don’t want him breaking anymore windows.” Says Era “Ok bye guys, come back for dinner.” Said their father “Ok!” said Miro. Once they got to Cora’s house they put the orb on the table and tried to find how to make magic. “Ugh it’s never gonna work!” Said Lane. “I have an idea!” Said Era. “Maybe we can go to the top of the electric tower and put it up there(and try not to get electrocuted) during the storm tonight!” Said Era “Yes, maybe that will work, let’s go!” Said Miro “um isn’t that a little...big?”said Cora. “Well it could work, and we want magic so I guess we need to try it.” said Lane.They get up and go to the tower and Era climbs it and puts the orb on it and gets down before the storm. “Ok let’s wait here and see what happens.” says Era.When the storm rolled in lightning hit the electric tower and the magic from the orb surrounded the storm making more lightning and then the magic consumed the storm into a small ball and made it disappear. “Woah, that was awesome!” said Miro “I’m gonna get the orb, then we need to get home for dinner.” said Era. “Ok.” says Miro. Era gets the orb and then Miro and Era get home for dinner. “Guys did you see how the storm went away?” asks their father “yea it was cool I wonder what that was.” said Miro “hmm, well let’s eat!” said their mother. “Ok!” They all said.

A trip to the past and back
Miro and Era woke up and got dressed to go to Cora’s house. “Wasn’t that cool yesterday, a whole storm is inside the orb now!” said Miro. “Yeah, we could have the power to electrocute or shock somebody!” said Era. “I’m gonna put it in my bag so we can examine it at Cora’s.” said Miro “Ok, before we go we need to eat breakfast and don’t forget your toothbrush it’s on the sink instead of in the mirror now so you can reach it” said Era “Ok thanks Era!” Miro says as he goes into the bathroom. “Ok now time for brea-” Era paused as she saw a weird circle expanding in the wall. “Ummmmm, Miro!” Era yells. “Yeah?” Says Miro “Come here now!” Era says. Miro runs to the bedroom to see the circle. “Miro what is that?!” Asked Era “That’s a portal you may wanna stand back!” Miro grabs the orb from his bag and makes a spell to close the portal. “Magic orb I use you at last now close that portal with a shocking blast!” The electricity comes out of the orb and surrounds the portal making it get smaller and smaller until it disappears. “Woah Miro, how did you do that!” Says Era. “I made up a spell and somehow it worked!” Says Miro “Let’s get downstairs for breakfast.” said Era. “Ok.” said Miro. Miro and Era go downstairs for breakfast. “Hey guys I heard a lot of noise in there, is everything ok?” asks their father. “Miro and I were just playing.” Said Era “Oh ok.” said their father. After Era and Miro finish breakfast their father drops them off at Cora’s. “Be good and don’t damage anything.” Says their father. “Ok we will be good.” says Era. “We won’t break anything.” says Miro. Miro and Era walk up to Cora’s house. “Hey guys!” says Cora. “Lane is inside, let's go!” Cora finishes. “Ok!” Says Miro “Guys guess what happened this morning in our room!” Said Era. “What?” Lane and Cora ask. “A portal opened in our room and Miro got rid of it by making up a spell!” said Era. “Woah that’s cool!” said Lane. “I have an idea maybe we can make up more spells in the backyard and try them on things!” said Cora. “Great Idea let’s go!” said Miro. Cora, Lane, Era and Miro go to the backyard. “Ok guys what spell do we make up first let’s write them down to remember them.” said Cora. “Hmmm I don’t know, Era got any thoughts?” said Miro “Yeah what about, everything that is near that shall all disappear!” said Era. The orb unzips Miro’s bag and floats out and makes everything in the backyard disappear. “Ummm, 1234 everything gone shall be here like before!” said Era. The orb zaps and makes everything come back. “Woah that worked!” said Lane. “I'm starting to like this orb!” Era said. Era, Miro, Lane and Cora go inside. “Well, we’ll need to be careful with such a powerful substance in our hands.” said Miro “Wait I have an idea, maybe we can hold hands and say a spell!” said Cora. “Yeah lets do that!” said Lane. “Ok what spell, got anything Cora?” Said Miro “Yeah I do, what about, here’s a story going to flame back to where the blame was taken by Lane.” said Cora. The room spun around and around and then a portal opened and they went through. “Our room?” said Era and Miro. “Yep when the orb was starting to zap the window and the sun.” said Cora. “I’m gonna grab the orb” said Cora “Woah guys how did you do that? '' said Lane 2 (the past Lane from 2 days ago) “Um hi Lane hehe” said Cora. “Can we have the orb so the window doesn’t break from it?” said Cora. “Ok!” said Lane 2. Cora, Era, Miro and Lane take the orb and use a spell to stop it. “With this power we contain, stop this zap so the window won’t break!” They all say in a circle holding hands. The orb floats and glows and makes a zap sound inside from the lightning it held and the light went away and the window wasn’t broken. “It worked! By the way, Lane, give me Miro’s old plastic baby bottle so I can break it and make it into thin air. ” said Era. “You can do that? Well ok!”, said Lane 2. Lane 2 gives Era the bottle and she breaks it and makes it into thin air. “Shards of glass with image of bear you shall turn into thin air.” said Era as she,Cora, Lane1 and Miro go through the portal.Era, Lane, Cora and Miro teleport to the same spots they were in and the time is still the same as when they made the spell. “Woah we actually went through time!” said Miro. “That was...Uh Oh!” said Era “What is it Era?” asked Cora “That bottle breaking, my parents will ask Lane about it and he’ll have to lie and get into more trouble because my parents always see that bottle in our room and when they find out it went missing he’ll lie get in trouble and then he won’t be able to be our friend because we will break up our friendship for losing it!” said Era “We'll be fine, you wouldn’t have broken it if you didn’t care about it” said Cora “True, I didn’t care about it at all.” said Miro “Well it’s time for bed.” said Cora. “We have a long day in the morning.”, said Lane.

Who’s Anora?
Era wakes up at Cora’s house getting dressed and wakes everyone up “Guys wake up we’re going to the library today!” said Era “Oh yeah I forgot about that!” said Lane “Well we’re going there, so let me get you dressed!” said Era “Um…isn’t that a little… weird.” said Lane “Seriously Lane I’m doing it with magic.” said Era “There is no greater there is no less now all of you shall be dressed!” said Era. Clothes teleported on them and they were dressed for the library. “Now let’s eat breakfast and we can go to the library!” said Era. “Why are you so excited about this?” said Cora “It’s filled with so many new books and even ancient ones so ancient nobody has heard of them, maybe even books about the orb!” said Era. After Era, Lane, Cora and Miro finish breakfast they walk down Harbor Street and then down Apricot Lane and then turn on Waterdam Street and walk down toward the library. “Oh my goodness, so many books you can climb the bookshelf to get the very top book and there’s a restricted section!” said Era. Miro, Lane and Cora giggle. “Let’s try to find the book about the orb.” said Cora “Oh yeah let’s go.” Era says. Era, Lane, Cora and Miro look through the library all day and don’t find a single book about the orb. “Maybe there isn’t a book about it cause nobody believes in magic...” said Era. “Are you sure nobody believes in magic?” an old man behind the librarian desk said. “What are you saying, do you believe in magic?” asked Lane  “Oh I do I’ve read every book in this library including the restricted section.” the librarian said. “Can we go there, so you can show us?” asked Era “Indeed.” the librarian said. The librarian guided them into the restricted section and then gave them a book about magic, it was titled, “The history of Magic.” “Here you go.” said the librarian. “Thank you sir.” said Era “Your welcome, well gotta get back to work.” the librarian said. “Ok guys, let's start reading.” said Era “Woah Magic was created by a queen from another planet!” said Miro. “Here it says somebody named Anora stole it and she lost it and it landed on earth, I wonder who she is and where.” said Cora. “So does that mean we are the new protectors?” asked Lane “Just wait, it says here that anybody who finds it will be rewarded with the orb and will be allowed to keep it!” said Cora. “So I guess we are the new  protectors!” said Lane “First, we need to give it to the queen and then we can keep it or else they will think we stole it” said Cora “Ok how do we get there and what planet is that?” asked Miro “Some planet called Galdur.” said Era “That’s weird never heard of it.” said Cora “It says hear it’s Icelandic for magic.” said Era. “How would they know of the Icelandic human language?” asked Lane. “I guess we can ask them when we get there.” said Era “When we get there, you mean we’re going to Galdur?” asked Miro. “Of course we are, we want to give them back the orb right?” said Era. “Right.” The others said. “Now then, let's check this out!” said Era. Miro, Lane, Cora and Era checked out the book, thanked the librarian again and left. They walked down the sidewalk home from the town library. “Here Miro, have the orb.” said Era. “Careful though, if you drop it, it breaks, and we have no magic.” said Cora. “Yeah I know Cora it’ll be fine, but again we can’t use magic in town, we’ll be a threat” said Miro.

Don’t take that!
Miro and Era  went home that night. “How was it?” asked their parents “It was great we went to the library!” said Era. “Oh what book did you get?” asked their dad“This!” said Era. “Wow that’s cool, but Era just last week you didn’t believe in magic.” said their mother “Well read this book I’ll grab something from my bag!” said Era. “This is the orb of all magic it took Era, Cora, Lane and l back in time!” said Miro.“Please believe us but read the book if you don’t.” said Era. “Ok guys we’ll read it, but if we don’t believe you show us with the orb.” said their Father. “Ok!” said Miro. After they read the book they kind of believed them but needed more evidence but just before they were able to show them a portal opened and somebody tried to take the orb “Don’t take that!” said Era as an arm came out of the portal “I’ll use my spell!” said Miro “Magic orb I use you at last now close that portal with a shocking...blast!” Miro said. The electricity surrounded the portal and it closed but opened half way and then closed all the way. “The portal is getting stronger somehow.”, said Miro. “Wow guys you closed that portal!” said their father  “And magic is real!” said their mother. Well we gotta get to bed we’re tired and the portal almost hurt Miro so...yeah.” said Era. Era and Miro went upstairs to their room and put the orb on the nightstand in between their beds and went to sleep. “Goodnight.” They said to each other. The next morning they went to the park (not a playground) and brought the orb and examined it with Cora, Lane and their parents then it got cloudy. “Guys it may rain, let's go home.” said Miro and Era's parents. “Wait no can we go to the electric tower?” said Era. “Why there?” asked their parents. “We wanna show you something but we need to get there before it rains.” said Era “Why can’t we just teleport there?” asked their dad. “Ok but we need to go somewhere nobody will see us, we may be threats to other people if we are seen.” said Miro  “Ok, then let’s go to the alley” said their mom. They went to the alley so they wouldn’t be seen and then Era said, “Magic orb, I use your power now to teleport us to the electric tower.” Then they teleported to the electric tower. Era climbed up it and placed the orb on top and got down before it rained and once it rained and lightning came and the lightning got attracted to the orb and the rain and clouds came with the lightning slowly and the orb contained the storm. “Woah that was awesome!” said their parents. “Now let’s go to the alley!” said Miro. “Magic orb this is not the finale so teleport us to the park alley!” And they all teleported to the alley and went to the park. When they got there everybody looked confused and then somebody came up to them and then Era hid the orb behind her back and then the person asked, “what happen-, wait what’s in your hand?” they asked. “Nothing, why would something be in my hand?” said Era. The person grabbed her arm and right as she did she gave it to her parents. “Hmmm you may have gotten past me this time but not again!” they said. “Whew that was close.” said Cora “Yeah good thing you gave it to us you would have probably used it on them and then you would have been a threat.” said Lane “Can we just stop saying threat!” said Era. Era grabbed the orb and walked to the alley angrily. “Era where are you going.” said the parents “The electric tower. Magic orb, I use your power now to teleport me to the electric tower.” said Era. Era teleported to the electric tower and then climbed it and set the orb on the top and got down “Now it’s time to change the degree so I shall set the two storms free!” said Era. The storms were now one and it spread all through their city and it rained and lightning struck and set fires  and then Era teleported her and her family home. “Era why would you do that!?” said Cora. “Now I can’t do my spell!” said Miro. Lane took the orb and gave it to Miro and Miro said, “Magic orb, I use your power now to teleport me to the electric tower.”  “Hey don’t take that!” said Era. Miro teleported to the tower and climbed up it got down and then the orb's magic  surrounded the storm and consumed it then Miro teleported home. “That was close!” said Miro “Yeah, but you did get rid of the storm!” said Lane.

Hurry!
Miro runs upstairs to his room with the orb in his hand and sees Era sleeping in her bed. “What happened?” whispered Miro as he went to sleep. In the morning. “Hey Miro wake up!” said Era “5 more minutes.” said Miro “Fine but only five.” said Era. Later, Miro wakes up and goes downstairs. “Hey Miro!” said Era “Hey?” said Miro confused. “Why do you seem so normal?” asked Miro. “Why wouldn’t I seem normal?” asks Era. “Because last ni-“ Cora covers his mouth. “What happened last night?” asks Era. “Oh um nothing just you just ran upstairs last night.” said Cora “Why did you cover my mouth what’s happening?” whispers Miro. “Last night when you were asleep…”whispers Cora. “We erased Era’s memory of her getting angry.” whispers Lane. “How did you find out to do that?” whispers Miro. “We just made up a spell again” whispers Cora. “What are you guys talking about?” asks Era “oh we’re just talking about a new spell.” says Cora. “Oh ok.” said Era “So I guess we have that figured out now?” whispered Miro “Yep let’s eat we’re going to use the orb today” said Lane. “Why?” asks Miro. “We don’t know your parents won’t say” said Cora “So when are we going?” asked Miro “Right after breakfast.” said Lane “Oh ok” He said as he kept eating. After breakfast they got ready to go. “So where are we going.” asked Miro. “I'm going to take that orb!” said an evil man “Who are you!” they all asked. “I’m the guard of Anora!”said the man. “Run!” said Era. “Huh?” said the guard. Era,Miro, Lane and Cora unbuckled their seatbelts, unlocked the door and tucked and rolled out of the car with the orb and started running back to the house. “Hurry!” Era exclaimed. “Wait, the house is too obvious, we need to go someplace else like-“Miro started “The caves!”interrupted Cora. “Ok, we need to split up to get to the caves that way he won’t know which one of us is holding the orb!”said Lane. “Ok see you at the caves!”said Era. The caves were dark and misty, not even the cave entrance light could make it shine. “Ok we’re all here let’s hide if he finds us!” Said Cora. “There’s nowhere to hide little ones… ha ha ha ha ha!” Somebody said “Of course if the guard was here Anora would be too, we’re so dimwitted!”said Lane.

Shard of the sword
“Well I see you're trying to run away from me and my guards.” said Anora. “We don’t need to try!” said Miro. Lane, Cora, Era and Miro grabbed the orb and Anora said to her guards, “Get Them!” The guards ran to the kids, and right as Miro said the last word of the teleport spell one of the  guards' swords fell out of his belt and slid across the cave and cut Miro. “Well now we are at the beach,” said Cora. They walked toward the woods behind them and as they walked Miro fell on the sand. “Ahh!” Miro said. “Miro, what's wrong?!”said Era. “The guard, he must’ve cut me when his sword slid on the cave ground!” said Miro. “Well we need to find something to heal that!” said Lane. “We could use the orb.” said Cora. “Ok we need to think of a spell,” said Era. “ I got it, give me the orb!” said Lane. Cora gives him the orb and he says the spell, “Magic orb this isn’t a deal but if you can have Miro be healed!” The orb glows faintly trying to heal him but it doesn’t work. “What, why won’t it work?” said Era. “Something must be blocking it from healing him or something.” Said Cora “Wait, does anybody have a magnifying glass?” asked Miro. “Uhhhh, yeah right here.” said Era as she pulled the magnifying glass out of the bag. “Thanks,” said Miro. Miro looked through it and saw a shard of the metal sword in the cut. “ Umm that isn't good,” said Miro. “What is it? asked Lane. “The shard in the cut is enchanted with a protection potion.” said Miro “What potion is stronger than the orb?” said Lane “Apparently a level FAU potion” said Miro “What?” said Era. “It’s a potion level meaning Forbidden and Unknown” said Miro. “Ok how do we take that out?”asked Era. “I don’t think we can unless…” said Miro “Unless what?” asked Cora. “Unless we get the sword from the guard and destroy it that way the potion on the sword will be destroyed.” said Miro. “Wait, one thing doesn’t make sense.” said Era. “If there is a protection spell on the sword how did a chip of it break and get in your ankle?” Era continued. “I don’t know… maybe we could ask somebody that knows of magic,” said Miro. “How will we find them, there is literally nobody that believes in magic!” said Cora. “Well there may be one person.” said Miro. “Who?...” asked Era. “You’ll see,” he replied.

What is this place!
Miro, Era, Cora and Lane were walking down Rainwater Trail and turned on St. Andrews Road and went down an alley to Waterdam Street and went into the Library. “Why are we here?” asked Lane. “Remember the librarian we met about two days ago?” said Miro. “The one that gave us the book?” said Era. “Yeah, I remember him.” she finished. “Wait, why didn’t we just read the book about how to get out the shard?” asked Cora. “Remember the magic enchanting the shard is FAU so it wouldn’t be in the book, Era do you remember the riddle book about forbidden magic?” asked Miro “The riddle that said: “Magic forbidden messed with shall not be if so it is then an unpleasant future shall be placed upon thee?” said Era. “Yes!” said Miro. “What does it mean?” asked Cora. “It means that if somebody uses a forbidden magic on something and the person it gets used on tries to get it out without a magic with more or the same amount of strength then they will cease to have a terrible future,” said Miro. “Wait, didn't we use the orb to try and take it out?” said Lane. “Yeah…we did,” said Miro frightfully. “Will we all have a bad future now?” said Cora. “I don’t know…” said Miro. “Let’s go try to get this out…” said Era. They walked up to the librarians desk and waited for him to come to them. “Oh, why hello children, what are you doing here today?” said the librarian. “We want to know...do you believe in magic?” said Miro. The librarian opened his mouth to say something but paused. “Well?” said Era. The librarian sighed and whispered, “Come back after closing and I will show you something…” Now here, they did not know if he had said yes to the question or if it was even an answer but they went home and talked about it. “What do you think he will show us?” said Lane. “Who knows, but it’s almost closing time so let’s get to the library,” said Era. They walked to the library as the  sunset at closing time. “Hello, sir.” said Cora. “No need to call me sir.” said the librarian. “Call me Joseph,” said the librarian. “Really? We just met two days ago.” said Era. “Of course! It may be formal to call me sir but I never really liked titles.” said Joseph. “Well, what was it you wanted to show us?” said Lane. “Oh yes!” said Joseph. “Come behind the desk.” He said. They went behind the desk and stood next to him but Miro wasn’t paying attention; he was looking at a book in the back on the desk that was loose. “Well, it’s time for me to show you this…” said Joseph. Joseph pulled on the loose book and a secret basement opened behind them. “Woah!” said Cora. Era, Miro, Cora, and Lane followed Joseph down into the basement and down a dark hallway. “Well we’re here,” said Joseph. They were standing in front of a wall with only five bricks in it, Joseph tapped them up, down and then the middle three and a door knob came out and he opened a door. “What is this place!” exclaimed Lane. “This is a secret basement filled with the most powerful spells and potions.” said Joseph. “Joseph, do you have any magic that can take out this shard?” Miro said as he showed him his ankle. “Hmm, this magic is very powerful, let me check if I have something,” said Joseph. Joseph read off the potion and spells and muttered stuff like, Healing Potion level EX, Reverse Spell Level P, and Destroy Spell Level F which meant things like Expert, Professional, and Forbidden. “Ahh Disintegrating Spell Level FAU.” said Joseph. “Here we go, Spell of power, Spell of great, make this object disintegrate!” said Joseph. The shard in his leg disintegrated and the cut healed. “Joseph, if you don’t mind, may we come here each night or day it’s closed to use this place as our study room to study up on magic?” said Era. “Of course, and I don’t mind at all!” said Joseph. A piece of paper fell off the shelf and Miro went up to it and picked it up. “What’s this?” asked Miro. “... I believe that’s a spell that can destroy the orb!” said Joseph. “Why do you have this?” asked Cora. “I didn’t know I did… It’s maybe a sign that Arona is here to destroy the orb…” said Joseph.

Maybe We Should…
“Well if she’s here to destroy the orb do you know how she'll do so?” said Miro. “No, but I do know how to protect it…” said Joseph. “How?” asked Era. Joseph used a potion and put a necklace on each of them. “What’s this?” asked Cora. “It is a necklace surrounded by a protection spell, it is connected to the orb so when you wear it only you four can use it,” said Joseph. Each necklace had a different symbol, Cora had the Fire necklace, Era had Air, Lane had Water, and Miro had earth. “Do you have a necklace like this?” asked Era. “I do, mine is soul, for wise and intelligent,” said Joseph. “...I have an idea,” said Miro. “What?” asked Cora. “We could get trapped by Anora and then we could give her a fake orb and keep the real one with Joseph and he could look through the fake orb by using the real one and when he sees Anora-” Miro stopped and Joseph said for Miro. “I could teleport the real orb to you, by using one of my potions!” The thing about this plan was that it was risky and Anora could know that the orb was fake but they didn’t think about that at the moment. “That’s genius, but how are we going to get captured by Anora without it being obvious we were up to something?” said Cora. “We make it so we don’t know what we’re doing until we get into a jail cell or something, but...we’re gonna have to take off the necklaces, she might know what they do,” said Miro. “Ok...we have our plan, we just need to set it up.” said Joseph. The next day Era, Miro, Cora, and Lane walked down the street by the cave and towards the beach with the fake orb in Eras bag, hoping Anora and her guards would catch them but Anora was so deep in the cave that they didn’t notice them walking by. “Ugh those brats stole the orb from me and it’s all your fault!” said Anora. “Sorry miss we won’t do it again…” said one of the guards. “You better be sorry!” shouted Anora. “I have a new plan…I’m going to the beach to cool down.” Anora said calmly. Anora walked down to the beach and sat on the ground near the water but she noticed the water started to rise at the shore. “What the-...” said Anora. “They’re here somewhere…” said Anora. Anora searched the beach and found them by the woods. “I found u!” said Anora. Startled, the kids jumped but they couldn’t move their bodies were too tense. Anora grabbed Miro and Eras wrists with each hand and Era held Cora’s hand and Miro held Lane’s and as they planned, walked with Anora and stayed silent until they got to the cave. “We’re going to my ship. I decided to take it by the cave and disguise it as a house.” said Anora. Anora went to the house by the cave, went in and made the ship invisible on the outside and flew up to space with the children trapped in a small room sitting, chained to the ground.

Captured but Threatened
“Ok so we’re trapped here, all we have to do is get to the cell or wherever, and when or if she grabs the orb Joseph should teleport us the fake orb and-“ “HEY, SHUT IT OR YOU’LL BE THROWN OUT THE SHIP WITH NO HELMET!” Anora interrupted Miro. Miro had sighed, waited until they got to the base, and hoped that the plan went well. When they got to the base they were on the very bottom floor like a basement filled with cells, most had people, others were aliens, some were so dark u couldn’t see them, but there was only one figure that was unlike all the others, it had ears like a wolf but seemed to have regular clothes. Anora put the kids in different cells but that wasn’t what Miro had hoped. “You kids will stay in these cells until dinner time and I will place you in the cafeteria with the greatest food you’ve ever eaten…” said Anora and then she laughed evilly and walked away. “Oh!” Anora walked back “I can’t keep this with you.” said Anora taking the Fake Orb from the bag and walking away again. “Now just to wait for Joseph to use one of his potions and teleport the Real Orb to me.” thought Miro. “Hey kid!” Said the wolf shaped figure. “Huh?” Said Miro. “Over here!” The figure said. Miro looked at Era’s cell right across from him, turned his head past a cell and looked through the bars. “Yeah?” said Miro “Do you know if you could get me out of here?” The figure said. “Actually...I do, but why should I trust you?” said Miro. “I’m friends with the elemental of wisdom and light.” said the figure. “Really?...then what’s his name?” asked Miro sceptically. “Joseph…” the figure replied. “Ok…I can get you out, but Joseph needs to teleport me to an object using one of his potions first” said Miro “Wait, you made plans with Joseph?” said the figure. “Yeah, we planned to get trapped here.” said Miro. “We?” said the figure. “Me,  my sister, and my friends.” said Miro. “Well, when will he get “the object” to you?” asked the figure. Miro checked his watch. “Right about...now!” said Miro as he held out his hand. The orb teleported in his hand and he said “Yes!” Miro used a spell, opened the door and walked out of the cell and let out Era, Lane, Cora, and the figure and it turned out to be a wolf with pale human skin, black to dark blue faded hair,had a kitsune tail with dark blue and black at the end and had black jeans, with a dark blue jacket, and had a eyepatch over one eye and had his bangs covering the other. “Hey I’m Comet” said the once darkened figure. “Hey, I’m Miro and this is Era, Lane, and Cora.” he said pointing to them. “Ok so what’s next?” asked Comet. “We try to destroy her ship most likely by exploding it.” said Miro. “Ok...how?” said Era. “We put the orb in the heart of the ship and use an exploding spell to destroy it, but it’s risky so we’re gonna have to get out fast, I’ll put a timer on it and we will have 5 minutes to escape the ship.” said Miro  “There’s an escape route I know of in the vents of this place, it’s pretty high up though.” Said Comet. “Ok, I’ll get  the orb to the middle of the ship using a disguise and stealing a name tag.” Said Miro. “What about us?” said Era. “You can try to hide and spy on Anora to see what she’s doing.” said Miro. “Ok let's do this…” said Cora. Miro went into the guard room and grabbed an outfit and hid his face with a guard helmet, Comet climbed in the vent and waited for them to get back, and Era, Lane, and Cora hid in a vent and listened to every word that Arona said. “You! Go down to the factory and see how the workers are doing! And you, go up to see if anything is wrong with the engines!” Anora yelled. “Wow she screams at...everybody” whispered Cora. “Yea...I wonder what’s in that room” wondered Lane looking at a door with a purple skull with crossbones on it saying to keep out. “We probably should stay here, we don’t want to get caught.” Whispered Era. Miro was going down the middle of the ship and saw a platform saying to put the orb there and when he did...something unexpected happened. The platform went down and stairs had opened to go down into some secret lair. Miro gasped and went down the stairs and found a book with the title: The Orb of All Magic. Miro read it and saw blank pages after he reached Chapter 12 but something weird about it was that as he read more words appeared like it was showing what had happened from the past one to two weeks. “It’s saying everything about what happened to us…” said Miro. And as he said it those exact words appeared. “I wonder who wrote this…” Miro said as he looked at the first page reading the author's name. “Joseph Drander.” said Miro. Then he heard footsteps coming down the stairs. “How was this opened…” said Anora as she went down the stairs. Miro noticed the Orb was on the platform and he stood on it with the orb and they went back up closing Anora in the small library without her noticing anybody was there until she heard the last sound of the library closing and she shouted “UGH YOU SCOUNDREL! HOW DARE YOU SHUT ME IN HERE!” Miro laughed and placed the Orb back without opening the library and set a timer on the orb and used an exploding spell. Miro ran up the stairs of the ship and took off his suit and heard Era, Lane, and Cora whispering and bent down to whisper to them. “Hey guys go up the vent and go to where Comet is, we have only 5 minutes to get out of here!” “Ok, c'mon guys!” said Era. They crawled all the way to the end of the vents until they reached stairs and they climbed and started crawling and turning again and then they reached where Comet was and they pulled him up the vent. They crawled and climbed over and over it seemed like tunnels to never end. They escaped the ship and when they were far away, the Orb exploded with the ship and then they flew away back down to earth next to the cave they had been taken from… “What is this planet?” asked Comet. “We call it earth,” said Miro. “Cool, what's that thing over there, it seems like a vent but larger and easier to collapse…” Comet said curiously. “That we call a cave, we look for gold and gems there” Miro responded. “Yeah, but we need to get back to Joseph, come on!” said Era running down the street. “Hey wait up!” Miro said running after Era and Lane went after but Cora stayed with Comet. “Are you ok?” asked Comet “Mhm…” said Cora with her head down kicking the rocks on the street. “I can tell you’re not fine…” said Comet. “Yea...your right…” said Cora. “What’s wrong?” said Comet. “I mean we just escaped Anora and I’m relieved we did but…we don’t have the Orb anymore…” said Cora. “Well you do have the necklaces…” said Comet. “These necklaces protect the orb from other people…” said Cora. “And now that it’s destroyed...there’s no point in having them…” “That’s not true…” said Comet. “You can use it...to protect yourself…” “How?” Cora said. “There is magic in the necklace, if there wasn’t the Orb would be taken by Anora before now.” Said Comet. “You right!” said Cora. “But...that was the Orb of All Magic '' she said. “Now that that’s destroyed magic is going to start disappearing...even the most powerful magic,” she said. “Love…” “Wait so love is going to disappear and everything will be...dark…” said Comet. “Yea…” said Cora. “No! We can’t let evil win, we will fight against Anora and this time...destroy her…”

Old Friends
It was night and Miro, Era, Cora, Lane, and Comet ran down the street towards the library and once they got in they went to the front desk and Joseph wasn’t to be found. Miro went behind the desk and pulled the book called “Elementals, Fire, Air, Earth, Water, Dark, and Light.” and behind the desk opened the wall and they went down the tunnel which was dark and misty, to the brick wall and tapped each stone and then it opened into the potions room, standing there was Joseph. “You made it!” said Joseph. “Well we wouldn’t have been able to without, Comet.” said Era. “Comet?” said Joseph. “Yes...sir.” said Comet. “Is that really you?” Joseph said. “Why, I haven’t seen you in centuries!” “Well...getting out of one of Anora’s cells isn’t very easy to do.” He said. “Well...you’re lucky I kept this with me…” Joseph said, going under a table in the middle of the room, opening a drawer and pulling out a necklace with an Asteroid, Star, and Comet charm on it. “The necklace...you still have it!” Comet exclaimed. “I couldn’t just get rid of it, I knew you would come back one day.” said Joseph. Comet put on the necklace and then his uncovered eye went orange and back to navy blue. “Woah, what was that!?” said Cora amazed. “That’s what happens when a current elemental puts back on one of the necklaces. “Wait...I wonder what happens if we take them off and put them back on.” said Lane. “I wouldn’t do that if-” started Joseph, but they had already taken them off. Miro put his back on and his hair turned green with brown tips then his hair and bangs went to the side, then his eyes shined green and went back to brown. Era put hers back on and then her hair turned white with grey tips then the style of her hair went into two braids, then her eyes shined white and back to brown. Then Cora put hers back on and her hair turned red with orange tips and then the style changed, then her eyes went red and back to blue. Then, Lane put his necklace back on and his hair turned dark blue with light blue tips and then his bangs changed and went up to the left above his eyes, then his eyes went dark blue to his regular light blue colored eyes. “Woah!” they all gasped. “I’ve never seen anything like this happen…” said Joseph. “Unless…” he said, turning around, grabbing a book behind him and silently started reading, “The 4 true elementals' hair shall change the first time their necklaces are replaced on their necks and then the hair color will stay permanently…this also declares them to be the most powerful elementals to live.” “Unbelievable…” said Joseph amazed. “You guys are meant to be the most powerful elementals to live!”  “What!” said Miro. “Guys...this means that we can defeat any other evil villain who tries to get rid of Magic or become the ruler of it!” He said. “Well...get ready because Anora was just the beginning…” said Joseph. “So there are more villains, villains who are even more powerful than Anora?” said Cora. “Yes...people like her son…” said Joseph. “Her son...she has a son!?” said Lane. “Yea...and he isn’t gonna be as easy to defeat...he’s a Burning Ink Phoenix…” said Comet. “What’s that?” asked Era. Joseph pulled out a book titled “The History of the Burning Ink Phoenixes.” “They have wings covered with Ink and they protect themselves by surrounding their body with their wings so that anything that touches them melts…” Joseph read aloud. “Thats crazy…” said Miro. “ They are hard to defeat...and you need to be ready for him…” said Joseph. “ And we do that how?” asked Era. Training, tomorrow in the gym, down in the right side of the tunnel” said Joseph. Era and Miro walked down the tunnel, went into the library and went home. Lane and Cora followed them, then they separated and went home. Era and Miro got home and they ran upstairs and went to sleep.

Training and Raining…
Era, Miro, Cora, and Lane ran inside the library, ran behind the desk, and pulled the book. Behind them opened the wall and they ran down the tunnel, turned to the door on the right and in front of them stood Joseph. “Your...5 minutes late…” said Joseph. “Sorry about that Joseph,” said Miro. “We sort of found out we could do this…” said Era, she put her hands up and one of the robots in the gym and a gust of wind came from her hands and blasted the robot down. “Well...that’s quite astonishing.” said Joseph. “How did I get powers?” said Era “It’s part of the elemental process.” said Joseph. “What Elemental Process?” asked Cora. “Yesterday, when you took off your necklaces, it changed your hairstyle and color.” “Yeah?” said Lane. “It also gave you powers.” said Joseph. “It will take a different amount of time for each of you to get them because there are 3 steps into getting your powers fully” “Which are?” asked Era “Acceptance, Control, and most importantly, Strength.” Joseph said. “So that should be easy.” said Miro. “Easy? Just wait and see…” said Joseph. Later, Era and the others trained by punching and kicking punching bags, running and pushing down robots, and practicing sword fighting. Later, after training they left the library but it was raining. “This rain is getting really annoying.” said Miro. “I wish it would stop!” he said angrily. “I do too but we’re gonna have to survive.” said Cora. “I’ll try something,” said Era. Era was about to surround them in an air bubble but Miro stopped her. “You shouldn’t do that.” He said. “You could get in trouble with the police or even be called a witch.” “Fine.” Era said. A drop of rain fell in the middle of Lane's palm and the raindrop started rising from his palm, so did the rest of the storm with it. “Woah!” said Lane. “What's happening?” Asked Miro. “This!” said Lane, showing his hand to Miro. Lane moved his hand in a circle and the rain followed it, then he spun his hand fast and it made the rain swirl like water that would go down the shower drain. Then he switched the water direction to go right in front of them and he blasted it down the street. “Lane...that was...unbelievable!” said Cora. “When are we gonna get our powers?” asked Miro. “Soon Miro, we might get them tomorrow or maybe even in a couple of hours,” said Cora. “Ok…” said Miro. Later when Era and Miro got home it was night time and Miro and Era were upstairs training. Era trained with her powers and a sword, and Miro trained with a sword, and read up on a copy of the book behind the library desk, the book was titled “Elementals of Fire, Air, Earth, Water, Dark, and Light.” Miro read the first chapter, the chapter of Air and then he read Earth which said “Each elemental gets their powers by being in a time when someone needs help or is feeling down.” “So I get my powers when in a time of need.” Miro thought. Then he put the book on the bedside table and went to sleep.

The Force of Nature
Miro woke up the next morning and then Era called Miro downstairs. “Hey Era.” said Miro as he ran down the last few steps. “What do you need?” asked Miro. “We’re going to the beach today, wanna come?” asked Era. “Yea sure!” said Miro. Later Era, Miro, Cora, and Lane went to the beach. “So, what do you wanna do?” Era asked them. “How about we swim?” said Cora. “Sure.” said Lane. They all went into the water, splashed at each other and swam, then Miro heard a scream. “Did you hear that?” asked Miro. “Hear what?” Lane replied. “We didn’t hear anything.” said Cora. “I’ll be right back.” said Miro. Miro walked out of the water and ran into the forest. “Hello?” said Miro. “Anybody there?” For a minute nobody answered then he heard somebody shout, “Help me!!” Miro ran through the forest and then saw a girl hanging from a tree. “I have no idea what to do…!” Miro thought. “Please help!” the girl said. “I will just give me a sec!” said Miro. Then Miro remembered the book and thought, “You will get your powers in a time of help or despair!” Then Miro found a vine nearby and then he tossed it to the girl. “Tie this to the tree branch!” said Miro. The girl listened and tied the vine to the branch. “Ok now carefully climb down!” said Miro. She climbed down the vine but then she fell and then Miro caught her and then she stood up. “Thank you, for helping me get down from the tree.” she said. “You're welcome.” Miro said. Miro ran back to the beach to his friends and sister and then ran into the water and swam with them. “So what happened?” asked Era. “Nothing.” said Miro. “You sure?” Cora asked. “Yes…” said Miro. “Ok.” Era replied. “Hey guys watch this!” said Lane. Lane made the water rise and made a wave and then he made the water start coming down on them. “No!” said Miro. And as the wave came down he put his hand up and blocked the water with a large stone. “Woah!” said Era. “You got your powers!” “I did!” said Miro. “That was amazing!” said Cora. “How did you do it?” asked Lane. “I read this.” said Miro pulling the elemental book out of his bag. “Isn’t that the book that opens the wall to lead to the potions room?” said Era. “Yea, I read it and it said that an elemental gets their power when somebody needs help.” said Miro “So you need to help somebody to get your powers?” said Cora. “Well, help somebody that is in a place that involves your power.” said Miro. “But what kind of place has fire in it?” Asked Cora. “You’ll need to find out, it’s basically destiny.” said Miro. “Wait but Era got hers when she was at her house.” said Lane. “Well I actually got my powers after saving somebody from a hot air balloon, they couldn’t control it and they started floating out to sea so I grabbed a knife I had in my pocket and threw it at the balloon and they started going down.” Said Era. “I got mine after saving a girl from a tree,” said Miro. “What about you Lane?” Asked Cora. “I got mine a couple hours after I saved somebody from drowning.” said Lane. “So I have to save somebody from fire or something?” said Cora. “Yea, I guess,” said Era. “That's not gonna be hard at all...” said Cora sarcastically.

= Chapter 16 =

= The Start of the Flame = “So I need to get my powers by helping somebody,” said Cora, walking down a road with a row of lit torches for decoration. Cora then heard people chatting on the sidewalk a couple feet away from her. Somebody tripped on the sidewalk and almost fell on one of the torches but luckily she was fast and she ran straight to them to save them. “Are you okay!?” she asked. “Yea I’m fine, thanks to you” said a boy. “What’s your name?” asked Cora. “Tairin” said the boy. “Cora” she said. “Well thanks for saving me. I have to go though, my friends are waiting for me.” said Tairin. “Ok bye.” said Cora. Later Cora ran towards the library and went behind the desk, she then pulled the book and ran down the hall. “Hey Cora!” said Era. “What took you so long?” “I was saving somebody.” said Cora. “Really?” said Miro. “Yea this boy named Tairin tripped on the sidewalk and almost fell on a torch. “Wait was the torch lit?” asked Lane. “Yea, why?” asked Cora. “You saved somebody, from a lit torch, which means…” said Era. “I saved somebody from fire!” said Cora. “I did it!” “The problem is...who you saved…” said Joseph. “What’s the problem?” said Cora. “Tairin...he's the son of the person who created forbidden magic, his fathers name is Tairus. “How many bad guys are there that we need to defeat?” So far you haven’t defeated any, you only exploded Anoras ship. Who knows if she didn’t escape.” said Joseph. “So we still have the same person to defeat…” said Era. “Anora isn’t easy…” said Joseph. “I have enough magic in this room so I can create a locator spell.” “I just need…something that belongs to her…” “I have this.” said Miro, pulling out a piece of metal. “What’s this?” asked Joseph. “A piece of metal from Anoras ship,” said Miro. “Well then I guess we have everything.” said Joseph. Joseph created a locator spell using the needle of a compass gold and bright, the shard of the ship, to locate the find, and a potion of floating to lead them to their sight. “So is that it?” said Miro. “Yes, now to take out the shard and it will float and lead us to her and the brighter it is the closer we are.” said Joseph. They followed the metal shard out the library and down the road then they turned, went into an alleyway and then turned into a small part of the town filled with houses, then the shard stopped and got at its brightest point. They were standing in front of a house. “It’s stopped,” said Era. “Yes, I suppose she’s in this house.” said Joseph. They walked in and inside Anora was reading on forbidden magic and some that were unknown to even Joseph. “Anora...what are you doing here?” asked Joseph. “...Joseph, of course you found me.” said Anora. “I’m not the only one…” he said, moving from in front of the children. “You!” said Anora. “Yes, the children you kidnapped…” said Miro. Anora tried to blast them with magic but the four of them blasted their powers back. “Y-you have powers…” said Anora “Since when?” she asked. “Era and Lane got theirs 3 days ago, I got mine yesterday and Cora got hers just now,” said Miro. “Well...I’m not surprised…You are the elementals who are supposed to rule after all…” said Anora. “Rule, Rule what?” asked Era. “Did you not tell them Joseph?” asked Anora. “You're supposed to rule…” started Anora, but Joseph interrupted “Don’t tell them… it’s too much pressure to put on children!” “What is?” asked Miro. “You’re supposed to rule…” started Anora but then she stopped. “Joseph?” asked Era. “...You’re supposed to rule Air, Era and Miro, you’re supposed to rule Nature, and Lane and Cora are water and Fire…” he said. “We rule our elements?” said Cora. “No, you are the first ones to have these powers, which means that the generations of people who also will collect them, are the people you rule,” said Joseph. “You see there are very many elements...light, darkness, nature, water, air, and fire...but there are more, galaxy, shadows, and forbidden magic…and of course you can’t have all of those without the creator of it all…” “The Queen of magic…” said Miro. “Yes her name was Elera...Anora stole the orb centuries ago, but lost it instantly the Queen was actually glad it was stolen because she had a book of destinies” Said Joseph. “Destinies?” said Era questionably. “The destinies of all the elemental masters including your own.” Said Joseph. “Well...we have our powers...and we are destined to use them so...how do we defeat Anora?” asked Miro. “I can answer that…” said Anora. “So you’re giving up?” said Cora. “No, I know that you are destined to defeat me but...you don’t really defeat me...I join you…” said Anora.

= Chapter 17 =

= Joining Sides = “You what!” said Miro. “Well, I mean if it’s the only way for good to win and it’s in the book of destinies then…we can’t stop it” said Era. “Ok, join us...but you have to try to be good, you train your powers and once you become good a white streak will appear in your hair.” said Joseph. “How come we didn’t get a white streak?” asked Lane. “Because you were already good.” Joseph replied. “So only bad people turned good get white streaks?” asked Era. “Exactly, but now that we’ve joined sides we don’t have time to talk, Anora you know where to meet us.” said Joseph. “Yes I do.” she said. Joseph, Lane, Miro, Era, and Cora left the house and went down the street then turned into the library, walked in and went into the tunnel. “So Anora will find us here?” said Miro. “Yes.” said Joseph. “How can we trust her?” said Era. “We can’t, we just need to hope she does the right thing,” said Joseph. “Which is?” said Era. “Joining us and deciding to be good,” said Joseph. “Ok I guess we have to trust her,” said Era. Later Anora walked into the room. “Hey…” said Anora. “Hello.” Said Joseph. “What do we do now?” said Era. “We need to stop Cane… Just like Anora did,  Cane wants the Orb, not to destroy it, but to trap us all in it…” Said Joseph. “Why?” said Cora. “He wants to use us, control us, and use our powers until they are gone forever…” “So we need to try not to get captured by him?” said Era. “Yes, because if we do he could destroy our powers, make us look like the bad guys and it could make us feel so tired we sleep for more than a billion years. “Well then I guess we can’t get captured…

After that you get thrown out of the ship into space!” “In the meantime while all of you eat I need to use my mirror,” said Cane. Cane walked into his room and looked into the mirror. “Magic Mirror, show me the Orb…” Cane put his hand through the Mirror, grabbed the broken pieces of the orb “This spell I cast, full of tricks, join these pieces, make them fixed!” Said Cane. Cane tried using the orb but it only glowed faintly. “Ugh! This Orb is Trash!” Cane threw the Orb through the mirror and it then floated and blasted down to earth. The Orb blasted the Earth and somehow the magic blasted Joseph and then he turned into a kid…

The Sun And The Moon

By: Aiden Nelson

= Prologue = Once Upon a time… There were two elementals one of the sun and one of the moon. One day the moon elemental and sun elemental were going to have children the sun elemental had bumped into a bookshelf in her library and it was called the book of destinies and she read that her children were destined to rule the four pieces of their land and since the moon elemental was corrupt he was never to be able to find the book of destinies so she dropped it down her well. But the sun elemental, she was not able to keep it a secret. The moon elemental had one day been filling up the well and since the book was enchanted it floated to the top and without a drop of water in its pages he read the book and found out the secret. He was so furious, he went into the house and asked what the book was she said she didn’t know but he could see through her lies so she got sent away and lived in an alley in the city and sang her child a song every night “ The dark won't follow you into this life for everybody finds their time, the time to fight and time to win for no one knows about his sins”. Then one day a woman walked into the alley offering to take care of the child. The mother was sad to have to lose her child but it was her only way to keep the boy safe from harm, so she gave up her child to be taken care of, hoping that one day he could meet his sister and find his destiny.

Chapter 1

Not What I Want

A boy is standing on a stage singing, he has blonde hair covering one of his blue eyes and has ripped grey jeans and a yellow and black jacket with black sneakers he’s shooting this electricity around the room and then the lights go out and come back on and he appears with wings. At the end of the song, the boy walks out and runs up the stairs, and goes up to the roof, “This is not what I want, the popularity, everybody chasing you, my magic being staged. I just wish things would change from popularity to just being me” he said. “One thing I have seen in life is the light and the dark, it never goes away until the final spark for if I rise and don't fall down I know that defeat will not be my ending for everyone in life they are condescending”  he sang. He goes home running through the forest into the field where a small house stood. He ran to his room and practiced his powers until night and then went to bed.

Chapter 2

What’s Real and What’s Fake

The boy wakes up by the alarm of his clock and then his mother yells for him “Spruce!”. He gets dressed and runs downstairs. “Hurry you're gonna be late!” says his mom. Spruce eats fast and then runs out the door. “Bye Mom!” he says as he runs and then he runs through the field into the woods down an alley and out onto the street and races to the school. He slows down once he gets in and walks to his friends by an area of lockers. “Hey Collin!” said Spruce. “Hey Spruce!” says Collin. Collin had white hair and bangs covering his one eye like Spruces. He had a cloud tattoo on his cheek with a sun in the corner. He wore a white and black jacket with a blue shirt and black jeans. “You're late, like always…” said Collin. “I’m only 5 minutes late, I may be a little late sometimes but I need a full 7 hours of sleep or my powers are weak during my concerts then people will find out the truth,” said Spruce. “What that your electricity isn’t r-,” started Collin but Spruce covered his mouth. “Yes but don’t say it out loud, people can hear you!” he whispered. “Why is it so bad they find out?” asked Collin. “ My “Mom” has the power of electricity and if people find out I don’t have the power of electricity then they’ll know I’m adopted,” said Spruce. “Spruce your the son of the Sun Elemental and Moon Elemental, they are royals! That’s way cooler than being a popstar and why are you even obsessed with what people think of you?” asked Collin. “Because if people think of me as a royal they will know that my parents are liars and hate them!” he said. The bell rang for class and Collin and Spruce had to go to their classes. “Bye Spruce,” said Collin. “Bye,” said Spruce. Spruce walked down the hall, went to class, and sat down. The teacher was writing an equation on the board “Ok class what is 4x+8/2” asked the teacher. A couple of pupils raised their hands. ‘Vastarrs” said the teacher. Vastarrs had dark blue hair, blue eyes, deer antlers on his head and deer antler wings ripped black jeans, and a dark blue jacket he was also one of the smartest in his class. “4x=4,” he said. “Correct,” the teacher said. “ Now class what I will be teaching you today is…” the teacher's voice fades in Spruce's brain and he looks out the window staring at the pond…

Chapter 3

The Weeping Willow On The  Other Side

Outside of the school was a Weeping Willow tree hanging over a large clear pond. A leaf dropped into the pond and then it sank and then disappeared into a blue light then faded. Then on the other side, the leaf appeared. A girl with black hair faded into purple, her eyes were being covered by her purple bangs and she had ripped jeans, a plum purple leather jacket, and dark purple boots with gold spikes upon the ankle in a circle. She was standing above the pond and she was staring at her reflection. A tear was dripping down her face and it fell into the pond, then the tear had disappeared right when it hit the water. She was surprised when there was a light that appeared and she touched the water, a glow started to surround her hand and she took it out quickly. “Weird…” she said. “Willow…” the whisper was coming from the water. She then went close to the water and jumped.

Truth  Be Told

The bell rang at the end of the day. Spruce walked out of the school and ran into the alleyway he jumped over the fence and ran into the woods. He ran through the field and into his house he then went upstairs and sat on his bed. “Spruce!” his mom called. Spruce ran downstairs into the living room. “Yeah?” he said. “So for your next concert we’re planning on making your electricity surround you in a sphere then you're gonna blast the electricity around the entire room,” she said. “Mom, I think I want to do something different,” he said. “Like what?” she said. “Well, I don’t know how to use my real powers,” he said. “What!” she said. “Absolutely not!” “Why shouldn’t I!” he said. “Because you’ll lose your popularity!?” “Because I know I didn’t want this, you did!” “Spruce!” his mother said. He runs out of the house and slams the door. “You say I can't be myself I’m screaming now I'm screaming out for help and now I will rise I am me and that's all I can be, I'm unstoppable I'm unchangeable I am me and that's all I wanna be and I can't wait for the day to come that I rise and become me again but it doesn't happen because, of you and all the people who tell I’m amazing, I know its truth in their minds but not in mine because I'm faking and breaking!”

Spruce uses his powers of the sun and yellow and black wings appear. “You think that I'm supposed to be extraordinary but it ain't happening cause I am faking and they’re all crazy…” The auditorium explodes and everybody in the hallway sees his powers. He then makes his wings disappear and runs out of the room and upstairs to the roof.

Chapter 5

Destined To Meet

After he reaches the roof he walks slowly to the edge by the short fencing. “You just have to try harder than you fight, you might be lost like sunshine in the night…” he sang. Then outside in front of the school doors, he heard somebody singing. “You know what they say, life’s about today, if you wanna be someone you don't have to wait.” she sang. Then they both sang, “You just have to change.” Then Spruce used his powers and levitated the person off the ground and onto the roof. They then sang together again, “What if I were you, would it be easier for me to be heard or to be seen, what am I supposed to do? It's all now up to you I am not that strong, I don't even know where I belong…” They then used their powers and their wings appeared. They then stood back to back connecting their wings and then walked away from each other. Then a bright yellow figure came out of Spruce's body and a bright purple figure came out of hers and then they got pulled back by them.

They did so again and then tried to trap the figures using their powers and they got transported to another realm. “ I’m Spruce,” he said. “Willow,” she replied.

Chapter 6

Prom Night, Shine Bright

The bell rang at the end of the day and then Spruce ran into Collin... He then began to fall but Spruce caught him. “H-hey…” said Collin. Spruce put him down “Hi, Uhm I need to get home see you at prom ok?” said Spruce in a hurry. Spruce ran out of the school and down the road through the forest into the field he then ran into his house upstairs and grabbed a suit. “Hey Spruce…” said his mom. “O-Oh hey mom…” “I changed my mind… I was thinking that you could use your real powers, let people know the real you.” “Thanks, mom!” said Spruce. “You're welcome,” she said. She then walked out of the room. “Yellow...or Black…” Spruce said to himself while picking out suits. “Yellow  is party like but black is classic…” “Hmm...Yellow!” he said. Spruce then got dressed and ran downstairs for dinner. “So you excited for prom?” said his mom when they sat down. “Yeah! I’m excited to sing and dance and-... hey mom?” he stopped. “Yeah?” she said. “I met my sister today.”

“What? From the other world?” she asked.“Yeah. She actually has the opposite powers of me,” he said. “So is that why you’re so excited?” his mom asked. “Yeah,” he said. A horn honked outside the house. “That’s my ride!” Spruce ran outside down the trail and got into the car. “Hey Willow!” said Spruce. “Hey Spruce,” said Willow. “Ready?” said Willow. “If I weren’t ready I wouldn’t be in the car right now,” said Spruce. “True,” she said. They drove away from the house, out of the country, into the city, and up to the school. They then got out of the car and walked into the destroyed auditorium. “Ready to fix this?” asks Spruce. “Ready,” said Willow. They use their powers and fix the auditorium and set it up for prom. “Yes, it's fixed!” said Spruce. In an hour half the school arrived. Spruce walked onto the stage and asked “Who’s ready to get this prom started!” Everybody cheered and he started singing. “If all of the kings had their queens on the throne they would pop champagne and raise a toast. Show all of the kings we can fight on our own. Baby, you’re not dancing on your own.” Then Collin ran on stage and grabbed a microphone. “Yeah, they say baby then maybe it’s off with your head. Gonna change it and make it a world you won’t forget.” Then they both sang together. “No damsel in distress don’t need to save me.

Yeah I am like a fire you can’t tame me, and you may think I’m weak without a sword, but I’m stronger than I ever was before! In chess, the kings can move one space at a time, but queens are free to move wherever they like. Don’t get too close you’ll get a royalty fine, so breathe it in to feel the love1 If all of the kings had the queens on the throne they would pop champagne and raise a toast. Show all of the kings we can fight on your own baby you’re not dancing on your own, yeah baby you’re not dancing on your own!” the song ended. Everybody cheered, and then a couple of hours later prom ended and everybody went outside to the parking lot. Spruce got to his house and he got out of the car. “Thanks, Willow!” he said. “No problem1” she replied. Spruce went up to his driveway and opened the door. “Tonight was amazing!” said Spruce. His mother was staring at a wall a glowing light was shining in the reflection of the wood floor. “Mom?” Spruce walked up to her and saw 2 figures, one yellow and one purple, Spruce then waved his hand in front of her eyes. “What did you do to her!?” asked Spruce. “Oh nothing,” said The Purple Figure. “Just got her stuck in an endless trance, she will be standing there until you face your destiny and fail...if you do fail she escapes the trance if you succeed she stays in the trance unable to escape” finished The Yellow Figure. “What’s my destiny?!” asked Spruce. “That’s for you to find out,” said The Purple Figure, his words echoed as they both disappeared into yellow and purple smoke. “...I have no information of what my destiny is and if I don’t find it out I might reach my destiny but succeed and not free her from the trance…” said Spruce. A portal opens and Willow, Collin, and Vastarrs walkthrough. “Guys!” exclaimed Spruce. “Hey- Woah who is she?...” asked Willow. “That’s my Mom…” said Spruce. “Is she ok?” asked Collin. “No...they came back.” said Spruce. “Who?” asked Willow. “The figures…” he replied. “The ones who we trapped into another dimension?” she said alarmed. “Yes,” he said. “How did they escape?” asked Willow. “I don’t know, but what we need to find out now is how to permanently trap them,” he said.

Chapter 7

Secrets Told

Boots with fur on the ankle rims walk down a yellow and red carpet. The boots turn and walk-up stone stairs with lights on the sides. A man with black hair, a black crown, a purple furred cape, black pants, and a dark purple coat, turns and walks down the hallway at the end of the stairs. As walking down the hallway, he walks up a small set of stairs and enters a roof. He walks on the path beside the battlements, turns onto another, and walks into a ballroom at the back of the roof. On the inside is a row of pillars, three on one side of the ballroom. Under the pillars, the area is a yellow floor, the rest of it is purple, the windows are blue and there is a chandelier on the blue ceiling of the ballroom. There is a wall on the other part where pillars would be. The wall is blue and has a cyan door with vines on it. He opens the door and there are pillars with bookshelves around them. There is a purple bed next to the row of pillars.

The man starts talking, “There's a ball tonight make sure you're ready by six, won't want you underdressed for you are a princess, ok?... Willow?” The man moves down the blankets and pillows are stuffed under the blankets to replace a body. The man looks shocked and shouts “Where is my daughter! Guards!” “Yes, Your Majesty?” says the guard. “Find my daughter now!” he says. “Of course, Your majesty.” says the guard. The guard walks out of the ballroom and down the battlement path. He then goes down the tower stairs and searches the castle but doesn't find her. He then blows a horn and all guards proceed to group up and walk on the bridge into the palace. “Men! Search for the princess, in the forest, in the village, check everywhere!” says the main guard. Later in the night, a knight with brown hair, blue eyes, and armour is walking through the forest, and then next to him hears a rustling in the bushes. He walks up to it and then a small creature with spikes on his back jumps out. “A hedgehog? What are you doing late at night?” the knight asks. “Oh, you’re an animal you can’t talk to,” he said. “Where I come from everything talks.” “Well, I can’t stay now. I'm looking for the princess,” he says. The knight walks away but the hedgehog still follows behind him unnoticed. The hedgehog then catches up to him and the knight stops. “You really like to follow me huh?” says the knight. “Fine, come on.” The knight kneels and the hedgehog jumps on his shoulder. “You're going to need a name.” says the knight. “How about… Chase?” the knight suggests. The hedgehog jumps onto his head and lays down. The knight laughs and says, “I'll take that as a yes!”  Later, the knight walks through the forest and then finds a pond. “A pond, I do need some water.” The knight says. He cups his hands in the water and drinks it and then he glows and disappears with Chase on his shoulder. Then he appears in another world on the other side in a grassy field. “Where are we…?” the knight asks. “I don't know…” says Chase. “Chase! You can talk!”  “Yeah, I-I guess I can,” he said. “Well…how are we going to find the princess now?” says The knight. “I don't know-” starts Chase. “Now that I think of it I never got your name.” “Oh right, my name is Arlin, meaning noble friend and warrior,” says the knight. “Well guess we need to find out where we are.” said Chase. “Yes, Yes we do…” Arlin replied. Later they found a town and asked around “Do you know where we are?” somebody replied, “You are in the world of hydrolium.” somebody said. “The world of the sun…” said Arlin. “What's that…?” asked Chase. “It’s where the prince is, and hopefully the princess,” said

Arlin.

Chapter 8

Potential

Spruce and Willow are in the auditorium practicing their powers. Collin and Vastarrs walk in, and then Spruce's powers hit the wall just above Vastarr's head. “Sorry!” says Spruce. “You're fine, luckily you didn't hurt me,” said Vastarrs. “Hey, shouldn't we all be practicing?” said Willow. “Oh, right we should,” said Collin. They each started practicing and then a portal opened and the purple figure came through. “Your training to defeat the king? Pathetic, there's no way you’ll beat him, especially with us on his side…” said the figure. “Uhm, thanks for the information because you just told us to defeat the king. Is that our destiny?” said Spruce. “Ugh yes, but you'll need to know where he is to defeat him…” said the figure. The figure walked back through the portal and it closed. Then another opened, It was Arlin and Chase. “Uhm I was told that the heirs to the throne were in here is that correct?” asked Arlin. “Uhm, yeah I guess,” said Spruce. “I'm Spruce and this is my sister-” Spruce started. “Willow!” Arlin interrupted. “Arlin?” Willow asked. “Arlin!” Willow exclaims.

She runs to him and hugs him. “Where have you been?!” asked Willow. “I pretended to be a guard under your father's power, for your protector, your mother, the queen, Long live the queen… She hired me for your protection, she thought that it was best since your father isn’t the nicest person…” said Arlin. “He never found you out?” asked Willow. “No, because I  listened to every word he said, never did anything suspicious or anything to make him know who I was. I always kept my helmet on so that he didn't see my face,” said Arlin. “How come you're not wearing it now?” “I took it off before I came,” he replied. “One more question, Who's this little guy!” asked Willow, directed to Chase. “I'm Chase!” said Chase. “Woah he can talk?” said Spruce. “Animals don’t talk in this world?” asked Arlin. “They aren’t supposed to, no,” he replied. “Then how come he can talk?” asked Arlin. “I was once…human,” said Chase. “I was turned into this by the king he has a sword, a magic sword and it’s called “The Sword of the Eclipse” and not only can it transform you but it can also create-” “The Figures of The Sun and The Moon.” Spruce finished for him “Yeah. How did you know that?” asked Chase. “We sort of combined our powers and let them loose, and It’s called Eclipse, Willow and I created an eclipse witth our powers, it was an easy inference. ” said Spruce. “You let them out of the mirror realm!?” said Chase. “We guess, what is that exactly?” asked Willow. “The mirror realm was created a long time ago when your geat grand father was the sun prince, he thought that if he combined powes with his wife they could create a dome over this world to protect it from creatures like The Figures of The Sun and The Moon, but instead they were created and so they had to create a magic mirror with the power to trap someone, they did so and they were able to trick them and trap them inside.” said Chase. “Well since they’ve been trapped before Im guessing it wont be so easy this time.” said Collin. “He’s right, we need to have a different plan.” said Willow. We could trap them in the pond, that has a reflection so it should trap them in the mirror realm, right?” said Spruce. “I mean the pond’s magic…I think?” said Arlin. “Wait that pond is magic!?” asked Spruce. “Yeah it’s how I got here.” said Arlin. “I also got here by the pond.” said Willow. “You didn't think to tell us?” said Spruce. “I didn't think it mattered I thought everybody here knew about the pond.” she said. “Apparently not.” said Chase. “Apparently.” said Collin. “Well first we have to find the Figures.” said Vasstars. “Like thats gonna be easy.” said Willow. “Where would we even find them at?” said Collin “Well they were part of Spruce and Willow, Willow isn’t sure so, I’m guessing Spruce knows” said Arlin. “I think I might know but it's a long shot, like there’s almost no chance at all that theyr’e there.” said Spruce. “Well it's only an almost where do you think?” asked Willow.

Chapter 9

The Search

Spruce, Willow, Collin, Vastarrs, Arlin and Chase walk down the street with Spruce leading them. “Where are we going?” asked Collin. “You’ll see.” said Spruce. “You’ve been saying that for the last 20 minuites!” said Collin. “You’ve been asking that for the last 20 minuites.” said Willow. “Don’t make me blast you!” said Collin. “Go ahead clouds are fluffy!” said Willow. Collin blasts her and she gets blown onto the ground. “Guys we cant be messing around, come on!” said Vastarrs. “Fine we’re coming!” said Collin. “Spruce when will we get there?” asked Chase. “Just one turn here!” said Spruce. Spruce turns down a corner and disapears, the rest follow him and disappear as well. “We’re here!” said Spruce. They were standing in a dark alley with a dumpster at the end of it. “You think that the Figures are here?” said Collin, unsure wether if this was where they were or not. “Yes I do. I just need to find something…” said Spruce. Spruce looks around and starts moving large rocks and pulling on stones on the wall. A few minuites later he realises that the sun is glistening off of a peice of rolled up newspaper. He picks it up and opens

it inside is a note that says: Spruce, One day you might need this, currently you're still a few months old. Your father has kicked me out of the castle and I am going to give you away to someone for your safety, you may not know why and you may question this note wondering why you were in danger, you may not need to worry about it now but when the time comes and you
