Book 1

Air

A boy named Lok Lambert was taking a girl named Sophie Casterwill to his dorm so that she could help him study for an important history test. With the war going on, people didn't really think it is wise to send their children off, not knowing if they would be okay and not be attacked by Fire Nation. But they have schools secured, so kids can get the education they need for the futures ahead of them after the war ends. So as Lok and Sophie were about to start studying, something caught her interest.

"Hey, what's that?" Sophie asked, handing the books to him and walking over to it.

"Sophie?" Lok questioned

"I just want to take a look"

As she was picking up the statue, she started to wobble. Lok got scared at this.

"No, Sophie that was my dad's!"

He ran and tried to stop her from tripping, but it only caused her to fall over. The statue was about to hit the floor, but Lok did these weird hand movements, causing it to soar to a nearby wall and shatter to bits. But when the statue shattered, it revealed a journal and some sort of weird necklace with a green stone in the center. Lok groaned when the statue shattered, but the objects caught his eye.

"Hey, what's this?" he said, leaving Sophie's side who was rubbing her head from the fall.

He went over to the objects and was staring at them intensely. Sophie went over to Lok, looking apologetic.

"I'm so sorry Lok. Was that…"

She saw the necklace shine and the symbol on the journal cover and gasped. Lok picked up the necklace and was looking at it puzzled as Sophie picked up the journal. A green aura suddenly surrounded Lok, and he looked at it strangely.

"Wow, this is weird."

The aura disappeared and he placed the necklace around his neck. He saw that Sophie was staring incredulously at the journal.

"This symbol, I've seen it somewhere before." She said, flipping around in the journal "Leonardo Deviancies' sketches?"

She kept flipping through the journal, amazed by its contents.

"What is this stuff?"

"This journal is unbelievable." She said, not hearing his question.

"There like treasure maps, right?"

"Sort of. Do you have any idea what this means?" Sophie asked

"No. Yeah. Maybe." He said, smirking.

"Right, we need the help of Dante Vale. He's a local expert on ancient artifacts." She replied

"How do you know… never mind, let's just get this cleaned up before anyone steps on it and gets cut. I remember the last time that happened." Lok continued

She nodded, gave him back his dad's journal, and then carefully started to pick up the pieces as Lok went to get a trash can. When he came back, she poured in the pieces she already picked up, and he started to help her. As Sophie was picking up another piece, she looked at it, looked at the wall, and then remembered those weird hand movements Lok did. In her mind, she was thinking, "That's strange. It hit a wall that was about ten feet away from us. What were those weird hand movements he did? Unless…" She suddenly realized what he did, gasped, and dropped the piece back onto the floor.

"What? What is it Sophie?"

"You… you're an Airbender!" she said, looking at him incredulously.

Just as she said that, a person burst through the window, shattering the glass into millions of pieces. As Sophie was about to grab a blanket to cover them, Lok swiped his arm across him and Sophie, making the glass go in another direction. The person in a business suit got up and held out his hand.

"Augerfrost!"

All of a sudden, a blue orb appeared in his hand.

"Who's that? Is he Fire Nation?" Lok questioned with panic in his voice

"Yes. Though he's much more dangerous. Look out!" She replied

As the suit threw the power at them, Sophie pulled Lok out of the way as the power hit a nearby wooden post. Lok got up and swiped his arms again, causing the suit to go flying towards a wall.

"What is going on?" he asked Sophie as the suit was getting up.

When he got up, he had a shocked expression on his face like Sophie's. He turned on his headphone speaker as two other people in suits came in.

"Sir, you're not going to believe this, but we have an Airbender!"

The suit heard a reply that Sophie and Lok could not.

"Yes sir, he Airbended me to the wall."

He then heard another reply, and then nodded. He got into a stance, looking ready to fight. He looked at the other suits.

"New orders. Get the journal and the kid."

They nodded and held out their hands, with the same power coming out of them. One of them smirked at him.

"So, you're an Airbender huh? Well kid, you've got two choices. Number 1: Either come with us quietly with the book like a good kid, or Number 2: You get taken by force. Your choice." The second suit demanded

"I don't think so. Lok, go, now!"

She grabbed his arm, but before she could get him into the hallway, he loosened his arm out of her hands to get her to let go so he could go and grab a wooden staff that was leaning against another wall. He slashed the staff, and it sent the suits sliding sideway's so that he could run out. But before Sophie could get out too, the two suits then started to attack Sophie.

"Raypulse!" The third suit called

The orange power flew at Sophie, but she dodged it. The girl suit sent an Augerfrost to her, but missed as well. Sophie flipped over them and into the hallway with Lok waiting. They start to run as they hear the one of the suits yell to the others.

"Don't hurt the kid, he's important. Do whatever you want to the girl." The first suit called

As they run, they keep dodging more powers. Soon, two more suits catch up with them.

"Are those guys even human?!" Lok yelled

Sophie grabs his arm again.

"This way." She said, leading him into an alley.

Sophie tells him they have to split up so that Lok could get to Dante Vale. Lok tries to protest, but they don't have time. Sophie get's him away from the two big suits, but in the process they grab Sophie when trying to get Lok. She struggles to get out of their grip.

"Sophie, no!"

"I can take care of myself. Go!"

"Are you crazy. I'm not leaving you here! I…"

"Shut up! They're not after me, their after you and the journal. You have to protect yourself and that book."

Lok sees more suits coming they're way.

"Lok, RUN!"

Lok gets irritated at this, so he slashes his staff, causing one of the suits to go flying toward the stone wall.

"When I say I can take care of myself, I mean it!" she yelled

She kicks the other suit's leg, then grabs the first suit's arm and throws him at the other. They collide and hit the wall, looking dazed.

"Alright,now we run." He said

"You need to find Dante Vale. I'll lead off those other suits."

"Fine, just be careful." He replied

He pounds the staff onto the ground, and then instantly, wings appear from the sides, forming a sort of glider. He grabs the top part with both hands and actually flies off. Sophie stares at him, but can't watch for long as more suits run for her. She takes care of them, and then runs off. Lok lands his glider on the ground, and runs to a church. As he walks around, he sees some suits and hides behind a post.

"The little squirt went this way." One of them said

When they disappear, Lok looks around to make sure there aren't any more of them.

"I hope Sophie's okay."

We see her land on a rooftop with the power Hyperstride and then rubs her leg where she got hit by flying debris. It's not cut or anything, just sore.

"Well, I guess that's about enough of that. Now, that drawing. Where have I seen that image before? Where?"

She then suddenly sees a memory of when she was little. She was in a fire, trying to escape. She calls for her parents, but they don't answer. Sophie shook herself out of it quickly.

"What… was… that? I'd better find Lok, fast."

She runs off to find him as we see him sitting on a railing reading through his dad's journal.

"The secret of the Ancient amulet of Will sleeps with the Golem, whatever an amulet is."

He flips to another page and gasps as a green aura surrounds him again. He flips the page again, and reads.

"What are the titans?"

"What have you got there friend?" a squeaky little voice asked.

"Who's there? Who said that?" he asked

"Just looking for someone to talk to. Those goons were on your back, so I figured you for a friend." The voice replied

"If not liking those psychos is all it takes, we'll get along just fine." Lok commented

"Great!"

Lok gets up, grabs his staff, and starts walking around.

"I could use a friend right about now, could you come out?" he asked

"Wish that I could, but everyone will get mad. I'm not supposed to be about during the daylight."

"I must be hearing things." Lok said to himself

Lok keeps walking, not seeing the fury, white gargoyle named Cherit. Cherit laughed as he saw how clueless Lok was about him.

"Friend, is it true you know nothing of amulets?" Cherit asked

"Yeah, what's so weird about that?"

"Well you've got one around your neck." Cherit replied

Lok looked at the amulet around his neck and held it up so that he could see it better.

"Tell you what, next time you're in trouble, concentrate on that amulet. Maybe it will look after you."

"What I really want to know about is this journal. Seen it before?"

"No, can't say that I have. Check the inside foot cover."

"What about it?" Lok asked

"It's a common thing to write names there. Or so I've heard."

Lok flipped the pages until he got to the back. He then saw what he was not expecting. It was a picture of his dad with his signature.

"Dad? This really is his journal? But he's been missing for ten years! He really wrote this?"

"Aye, that's a sad, sad… look out!"

Just as he said that, an Augerfrost nearly hit him. Lok jumped up and grabbed his staff as the suits got on to the balcony. He held on to his dad's journal and started waving his arms. Suddenly, a ball of fast moving air formed and Lok got on it. He motioned the ball forward, away from the suits. He motioned it all the way toward the end of the balcony, then jumping off. Just as he was about to open his glider, a green aura surrounded him again, and he landed gently on the rooftop.

"Wow." Lok said shocked

He kept running as the suits were coming for him. He did the same thing, and the same thing happened again.

"I don't believe this!" he said as he landed on a nearby bridge. "What's happening to me?"

Just as he was about to run off, two suits found him and blocked both exits of the bridge.

"Kid, give me the book and give yourself up." The suit girl demanded

Just then, Lok went over to the side of the bridge, getting ready to jump off. Then all of a sudden, another suit came up to him and punched him in the stomach, causing him to let go of his dad's journal.

"My dad's journal!"

The book fell into the water and disappeared from view. Lok jumped off the side, about to go get it, when the suit grabbed his shirt collar.

"Hold it kid. You're coming with us."

Lok saw the journal sink deeper and deeper from sight.

"NO!"

Lok got mad enough that he elbowed the suit's arm and jumped into the canal. The suits decided to go report to their leader, Defoe. We see a group of people standing near a different part of the canal in a different part of the city. The person who looked like the leader spoke.

"Ah the waterways of Venice. Aren't they breath-taking, Grier?" Defoe commented

Grier didn't answer as his leader continued.

"And yet, my old enemy, Dante Vale, set up shop around here. Once we wrap this important mission, why don't we pay a visit?"

"Sir. Yes sir, if those are your orders, consider it done." Grier replied

"Excellent. I think you'll do quite well in the Organization."

The suits that attacked Sophie and Lok came up to Defoe.

"Defoe, sir!" the first suit called

"Report" Defoe commanded

"The boy dove into a canal sir"

"And?"

"We lost him"

"You what? 5 elite Organization suits can't capture the boy who may be the key to the success of the Organization?" Defoe questioned

"We apologize, sir. It won't happen again."

"That's right, it won't. No more taking chances. I'm authorizing you to use your amulets and bending."

"But sir, what if there are witnesses while we are using our amulets?" Another suit questioned

"We'll worry about clean up later. Find the boy" Defoe replied

"Sir, there's one other thing. A girl was with him. She gave us some resistance and helped the boy escape. Also, were not really sure if she's a bender or not, but she's got the skill of one."

"Oh really? Have these two go interrogate her, she might be useful." Defoe commanded

The suits stood there waiting.

"Well you have your orders, now move out!" Grier commanded

"Yes sir!"

We go back to the other part of the canal to see Lok resurface from the water with his father's journal in his hand. He started to flip through it when he got on dry land, only to find that the pages are ruined.

"No, everything my dad wrote!"

Lok sadly put the journal in his belt satchel, grabbed his staff, and walked off with his head held low. Little did he know that he was being watched by a one-eyed monster. As Lok turned the corner, he saw another suit.

"Let's do this nice and easy kid, it's over." The suit called to him

"I finally got a clue about my father, and it was taken away from me, all because of you freaks!"

He started to run for the girl. The girl suit reacted to this by taking out another one of those necklaces, or amulets, except this one had a different look and a red stone.

"Redcap!"

A savage monster with really long and sharp claws came out and attacked Lok. Lok, still in his angry mood, swiped his staff causing the monster to hit the side wall. Lok then calmed down a bit, but when he ran for the suit, she did something else. She balled her fists, and out of her hands came fire!

"So you're a Firebender huh? Well, you just met yourself an Airbender!"

Lok used his motions to lift the monster with the air and throw it towards its master. As she was trying to get up, Lok remembered what Sophie told him to do. He found a phone booth and he looked up the name Vale. He found a page with Dante Vale on it just as the suits found him. He started running again in search of Dante's house. While so, Sophie is staring around the rooftops of Venice, trying to see if she can find Lok flying with his glider. All of a sudden, she was surrounded by two monsters and two women suits.

"Found her" the first replied

"Miss, you're going to have to come with us. We've got some questions." The second suit called

"Sorry, but I'm not interested." Sophie ignored

"This isn't a request. Raypulse!" She yelled

The power hit the rooftop just near Sophie's feet, trying to scare her into coming with them. Sophie only smirked.

"My name is Sophie Casterwill. And I am not, alone."

She puts on a necklace like Lok's, except it had a different look and a grey stone. In the background behind her, we see a man with long-braided hair and some sort of weird outfit.

"Huh?" she said, seeing the man.

"Now, I could use some exercise, if only to keep my mind sharp."

She jumped as the stone on the necklace started to glow. We go to see Defoe and Grier walking.

"Tell the team to report immediately." Defoe commanded

"At once sir."

He pushed the talk on his headphone so that he could speak with the other suits. A man with shorts, a black and white-striped shirt, and a red ascot was running, telling them he saw monsters by the canal. Defoe knocked the man out with the spell Touchram, and made him forget what he saw by using the spell Simplemind. Grier tells Defoe that the men has the boy cornered, and they go to find them. We go back to Lok who is still running from the other suits. When he then finally got too tired to run anymore, he got surrounded by suits and their monsters. He backed up into this little neighborhood area and the suits surrounded him in a circle, where they shot powers at him, though he managed to block them with some Airbending tricks, but was knocked over his feet. We then see a man with auburn hair, green sunglasses, and a yellow trench coat carrying groceries coming their direction.

"Sounds like someone is being careless." The man commented

He walks to the place just as one of the suits is talking to Defoe on his radio.

"Yes sir, we got him." The suit replied

"Looks like that kid could use some help." The man thought, seeing Lok in the center of the circle.

The man speaks just as the Redcaps are about to grab Lok.

"Ah, excuse me? Is someone there? Little help here, I'm loaded down with all these groceries. Could someone get the door?" The man asked

Lok looks in awe as a suit attacks him.

"Augerfrost!"

The power flies toward the man, but it is blocked by some sort of force field. The man walks up to look and speaks to him in a low tone.

"Hey, you okay?" the man asked

"Well, I've been better." Lok replied

As Lok tries to get up, he gasps in pain. The man then sees the amulet around Lok's neck, which starts to glow again. He's shocked at first, and then smirks.

"It's time for you guys to go. You can walk away, or get thrown out with the trash. Your choice."

"No one defies the Organization. Get them!"

The Redcaps started running toward the man. He only smirked. Just as they were closing in on him, he made a move.

"Hyperstride!"

The blue power covered his legs and he jumped with amazing force onto the rooftop.

"I warned you." The man replied

He puts down his groceries and holds up an amulet as well. This one is grey with 3 claws and a blue stone in the center. The stone shined in the light as the Redcaps watched.

"Come out and play guys. Caliban!"

The amulet started to glow, and then a warrior with long white hair, armor, mask, and a huge sword came out of it. (Talk about cramped.) The warrior jumped to the man's side, as they prepared for battle.

"After them"

The Redcaps started to towards the man and Caliban.

"Go!"

The man started to run towards the advancing Redcaps. Caliban jumped and held his sword up. The man slid over to the side just as one of the Redcaps was about to slice him. The Redcap fell down onto the ground. Both the Redcaps were about to attack when Caliban got to the ground and hit one of them to the wall. He swiped at the other, but the Redcap only ducked. The Redcap then looked at the man.

"Time to clean this up."

The man swiped at the Redcap with a power on his hand, to give Caliban the distraction he needed to slice the Redcap in half. The Redcap exploded in the spot. The man walked up to the suits.

"Let's settle this like men."

He got into a fighting position and blocked a punch from one of the suits. The other kicked at him, but he ducked. As they fight, the girl suit makes an Augerfrost appear in her hand. Lok walks behind her to see it. The man is still fighting, so he doesn't see.

"Well deliver you to Defoe, in chains!"

The girl suit is about to attack Dante from behind. Lok grabs his staff, having an idea in mind.

"Enough with the sweet talk. Let's end this. Now."

The suit tries to punch him, but the man uses this to throw him into the garbage can. The girl suit takes this advantage.

Gir"Auger… ah!"

Lok hits her in the head with his staff. He then slashes the staff, causing the air to make her go flying toward the stone wall. At first, the man was smiling, but when Lok Airbended, he gasped in shock, amazement, and surprise.

"Let me guess, your Dante Vale, right?"

Dante barely nodded, still surprised. One of the suits took this advantage.

"Mindrone, attack!"

The Mindrone jumped for Dante, but he was ready for this.

"Solwing!"

He held up another amulet. This one was gold colored and had an aqua blue stone in the center. Out of the amulet came a bird with 3 sets of wings, and had Greek headwear on. The bird looks like a mix of a falcon and a hawk. The bird soared straight through Mindrone, causing him to explode and turn back into energy and back into his amulet. The suits then started to run away. Dante started to help Lok up, but Lok couldn't help but ask.

"What… What is all this?"

"This" Dante said, smirking at his monsters "This is my house. Why don't you come inside?"

Lok picks up his staff and then they both head to the house. While so, Dante had all sorts of thoughts running through his head. "Wow, this boy is an Airbender! I haven't seen an Airbender in years. Not since the Fire Nation got rid of them. He must be the last Airbender on earth! I wonder… I wonder if he's who I think he is. No. No he isn't who I think he is. If he was, he wouldn't have needed my help in protecting himself. No, he's just a regular Airbender, and now a seeker." The head in the house as the monsters go back into the amulets. Lok shows Dante the book, and Dante sits down to take a further inspection. Lok looked around and saw a name plate on another desk. It had the word Detective carved on it.

"Detective? Does that mean you're like a private eye?" Lok asked

"Sure, but what I'm really interested in is ancient secrets, like these." Dante said, holding the book in the air.

"I guess those guys were too, huh?"

"Yeah. Their after this journal. And you."

"Me? What do you mean me? I mean, I'm just an average airbender. I mean, if they want an airbender, they could have just gone to the Pyrenees Mountains and gotten one there. Why do they need one who just happens to be in Italy? It's not like I'm the only one." Lok questioned

Dante paused at this for a moment, staring a Lok. Does he not know the history of his own nation? How is he completely in the dark about the fact that the airbenders have gone extinct?

"Who's your father?" Dante finally asked

"Eathon Lambert."

"Really? But he's been missing for…"

"Ten years. I know." He said, finishing Dante's sentence.

"I'm sorry. He was a great man."

"He isa great man. This journal of his might actually lead me to him."

"Well, they seem to be after that book as well as you. Or rather what's left of it. What I'm wondering is why they seem to want you so badly. Why do they need an Airbender?"

"Well, I don't know why they need me, but the journal's not going to do anyone any good now."

"Lok, this is serious. The Organization is a ruthless group with operatives in every government on the globe. Once they target you, they don't stop." Dante warned

"There's must be some way out. I already have enough to deal with because of this war. I don't need some Organization freaks tailing me everywhere I go." Lok moaned

"There is. I have friends in the Huntik Foundation. Their trying to stop the Organization from controlling too many titans. If they do, a big part of the Fire Nation's defenses will go down."

"Those monsters back there were titans?" Lok asked

He then remembered Caliban, Redcap, and Solwing.

"Yes. Titans are spirit beams that can be controlled by people with strong will. We're called seekers. The Huntik Foundation is full of strong seekers, and they can protect you."

At this point, Lok became extremely angry.

"NO! No more monsters, no more secret societies. You don't have any idea what today has been like for me!

"Lok" he said, feeling sorry for the kid.

Lok took of the amulet around his neck and walked up to Dante.

"You know what? Keep that dumb ruined book. And this too!" he said, slamming the amulet onto the desk "I don't care if they were my father's. I never want to see those suit guys, or your titan things ever again!"

He starts for the door, grabbing his staff with him.

"Hold it!"

Lok was about to open the door, but let's go of the knob.

"Sorry, you're not getting off that easy. You're already a part of the secret world."

"What's that mean?" Lok asked angrily

"This" he replied, holding up Lok's amulet.

He placed the amulet on the desk and Lok looked at him questioningly.

"My father's amulet?"

"It may have been your father's this morning, but it's yours now."

"What? Okay, I'm even more confused."

"Sometime today this amulet synchronized with you. Lok, your one of us now."

"I am?"

"Like your father, you're already, a seeker."

The amulet started to glow as it levitated off the desk and flew into Lok's hand. He looked at it amazed as the high pitched squeaky voice started to talk again.

"He's right friend. When you've been around as long as I have, well, let's just say you get used to these things." Cherit said

Lok sees the fury white gargoyle fly over to him.

"It's you!"

"You see my boy, the connection between seekers and titans run special abilities. And you can't say you haven't felt that power, now can you?" Cherit continued

Lok then remembered how he flew around with that green aura instead of his glider.

"Hey, you remind me of…"

"Lok, forget Cherit a minute and take a look."

"What is it now?"

"Someone, just raised the stakes."

We see a bunch of suits, Grier, and Defoe standing outside of the house.

"Aye! There's no way out!" Cherit says as Dante looks at them hatefully

"Uh… Did I mention I have a history final tomorrow?"

"The journal, the hated Dante Vale, and the Airbending kid. Well get them all together." Defoe smirks

Okay, so I realized that I made errors in the first chapter so I decided to fix it and repost it. Hope this version is better
