Chapter One
In my own words…
That's life - full of mystery
That's life - ces't la vive
That's life - and what will be will be
time waits for none
that much is understood
the future's wide open
just take a look in life's unwritten book
-Amy Diamond, That's Life
Carina sat at the plastic grey table with herself and her friends in the cafeteria. Smells of hot chocolate, soup and mystery meat filled the packed room. Sounds of teenagers gossiping and scribbling homework into their books. All in a pretty small cafeteria. Well, it was big but there were too many students in here, Carina noted. They had to sit indoors or sit in wild winds and pouring rain.
It was such a drag having to sit inside, Carina always liked sitting outside, nature blooming and the sun shining typical whether for Lommer City but lately it was grey, pouring down and freezing cold.
So cold, Carina was already in winter gear. She was wearing pale blue jeans, long pink floral top with a green hoodie and cowgirl boots, she hadn't known what to wear this morning but she had too many things on her mind to worry too much about that, she guessed she looked alright even though she hardly wore pants but she was freezing. She wished she was more like Tai, who seemed to be able to endure the cold. She was wearing jeans and a simple red long sleeved t-shirt. Carina knew that after school she'd be playing soccer too, Tai lived for that sport.
Some things will never change, then again, something's will never be the same again!
Like my life, Carina moaned. One minute I'm a normal teenager who's biggest worry was the weekend being too far away- now I have to keep that up and be a magical creature while trying to not let anyone find out!
A Guardian of the Veil as I'm formally known, Carina thought as a bolt of lightening struck nearby ground.
So many people jumped out of their seat. Just wait until you are attacked by Demon Boy- nothing will ever scare you as much as him! With his spiky red hair, black mask and purple bat wings he looked like he came out of one of my nightmares, Carina thought, shivering as she thought of him.
Of course his name isn't Demon Boy, that's just what I call him- it's not like I'm going to ask his name when he's trying to steal the Heart of Candracar from Wanna! The crystal had been their best friend and their nightmare.
It was the reason that Demon Boy wanted to harm her and her friends, but it was also the provider of magical powers which they had used to try and stop him in the warehouse…
"Thank goodness that everyone thinks that the warehouse collapsed with the storm and not from four teenagers and a magical being who are fighting over a crystal," Hannah said, leaning over the table, using her hands to communicate. Carina was just going to think that.
Carina picked at her food but she was too worried to eat. She had to eat something, food gave her energy which she had a feeling she would need.
"Lucky hey?" Tai asked dunking a bit of bread into her pumpkin soup, which her Dad made for her that morning, steam swirling up into the air.
Tai's Dad was a chef and he was really good at it, Carina knew from the dinners he provided when they ate at Tai's place sometimes a few years ago. Carina wondered if they could go over there again she remembered that her house was really warm and cozy, with a real Mediterranean feel to it, bursting with life and colour. Plus noisy, her brother was always doing something loud and Tai's father always talking, on the phone, to the television, to himself. It was a lot of fun then, but since then Tai got serious and turned off.
It was strange, ever since that night after the warehouse attack Tai seemed to be talking more and getting involved, with the group. Yes, they were friends but for some reason she was distant, there but unable to get into anything.
It was so unlike Tai, but Carina was glad. If we want to stand a fighting chance, we need her. The only reason we got away last time, was because our powers were too strong and tore down the building giving us a chance to escape.
If that hadn't of happened, I don't think we would of made it out!
"What's freaky was, our powers were just as Adam said- We can really control the elements!" Hannah exclaimed. Yeah, Carina thought, that's true too! Adam was their substitute teacher in science. Their original teacher was in Ireland.
Adam seemed like a pretty ordinary guy trying to pay his rent or not. Somehow he knew of magical worlds and infinite temples. Adam was the one who informed them of that when they went he told them after school about magic and crystals, good and evil.
Izzy was given the powers to control water. Carina smiled, it suited her well. She was easy going and just went with the flow- just like a simple river flowing out to sea. Plus floating in the ocean was her favorite past time.
Hannah was given the powers to control air. Hannah was so free spirited and wild. Almost like the air.
Tai was given the power of fire, even though Tai was absence last fight, Carina knew that element was perfect for Tai. Tai's passion and athletic ability would be able to handle the gift with nearly no difficulty.
Of course I was given the power of the Earth, which I'm pretty happy about! I can't think of anything better then flowers and trees plus the ability to use vines to trap Demon Boy, is perfect because then I don't have to fight. That goes totally against my morals.
Now, Wanna. Well, I'm not too sure you'd call it an element as such. What is it? A crystal? The ability to make us transform? Well, she's pretty good at that bit. However, I know that with that role comes leadership, but Wanna's totally shy! I'm not too sure she can control Hannah, tame Tai or get Izzy to do something. I'm happy to follow her orders if she gives any. She played with her food, as the others chatted about the fight at the warehouse.
"He didn't seem as scary as the first time," Izzy stated. Waving her fork at the girls.
"I'm not too sure if that's true, but at least we actually fought back this time," Carina added said, sighing.
"I think the real point we need to make is what is our next move?" Wanna said. See, that's what a leader should do!
I knew Wanna can do it! If she gets over her insecurities she'd make the best leader! Like it's just tiny sniffed out flame ready to be lit up and burn bright. I know it seems like a wild assumption but my instincts have never steered me wrong- especially about a friend.
Carina looked at her, turning away from her thoughts. She knew Wanna had it in her.
"But we have no leads," Tai pointed out, true again. This is almost like a history quiz. True, false, true, false, although there's no relying on studying and make up tests, one shot and you're out. That's a lot of pressure, I wonder if the others feel it?
"That's true," Wanna sighed, she was finally getting the group to go somewhere but then… it wouldn't work. Each girl fell silent playing with their food.
"How about practice then? When we actually used our powers they didn't actually work, we should learn that, shouldn't we?" Izzy suggested to the group.
"Okay, that makes sense, we don't know what's coming but at least we can be prepared as much as we can," Wanna sighed, eating her food. She put her fork down and pulled her long blue sleeves over her little hands.
"I wonder why the whether is the way it is," Izzy asked randomly, staring out the window. She looked half asleep, now that Carina looked at her properly. Her ocean blue eyes, half covered by her eyelids.
"No one knows a reason why!" Hannah commented, did she hear that on the news because that statement was very un-Hannah. If they weren't magical and this was happening Hannah would have gone on about mythical gods and goddess and the secret message behind everything.
"Nothing makes sense anymore," Tai looked depressed, she hung her head and looked down at her lap.
"At least we have science next- we could ask Adam," Wanna looked hopeful, a strawberry pink curl falling into her big brown eyes.
"But will he help us?" Carina asked. "He should, he's the one who threw us into this!" Tai argued. Oh no, just when she was getting closer, she goes and retreats! Carina moaned. With that the bell went, there was no more time to discus the weirdness that was their lives.
Berri: Bit boring and long? A little? I agree but I guess it needed to be done sooner or later so I choose sooner, now I can let my lovely little imagination run wild. Remember my policy, make me feel loved by reviewing and I will share that love by updating. The more love the faster the update! RxR
