PART 2
Chapter 6 THE MENTOR
Emily and Adriane walked around the rocking stone to find Sierra cuddling Hero in her hands.
"Uh hi Sierra". Emily said walking over to where she was, then she sat down.
"Me and Adrian have decided to teach you some healer and warrior moves".
Sierra was shocked, but also she knew that there was some kind of catch to it.
"Emily, i'll teach her the warrior moves tommorow".
"Fine, but remember we meet here at eleven o'clock, before the tours start"! Emily yelled as Adriane ran off.
"Okay lets start with the basics".
A few minutes later Sierra, leaned on the floor next to a wounded animal. Well it wasn't that wounded just a little scratch from a thorn. Blue healing light pulsed from her gem. and her hands glowed as she healed the wound.
"Remember Sierra, focus your energy on the animal, you are connecting with it, you are lending your energy to it".
Sierra felt the steady heart beat of the duck-like creature, A quiffle Emily had called it. With one final pulse the Quiffle was healed.
"Good Job Sierra". Emily said.
"Next Lesson: Healing must be used for only good".
Sierra sigh, boring stuff. She wanted to actually try healing. Suddenly she tripped over a small rock buried deep in the ground.
"You okay"? Emily asked.
"Yeah fine". She anserd, then looking at the tear in her jeans, a huge cut on her knee started to bleed.
"Oh my god, Sierra we have to get that wound cleaned and bandaged it might get infected"!
Sierra moved her hand over the wound.
"It's okay i got it". Blue healing light Pulsed from her Jewel and flowed threw her body in a few seconds, Sierra removed her hands to find the wound completely gone.
"But-but that's impossible in order to heal yourself someone must have given you some kind of energy"!
"No, i just healed myself". Sierra said calmly.
"Sierra i don't think it's okay to use your own energy to heal yourself, something bad could happen"!
Oh so now that i taught her something it's not okay because I'm more powerful then her!
"Okay Emily". Said Sierra with a phoney smile. "I promise i will never do it again.
"Stupid Emily, telling me what to do". Sierra said Kicking a rock around with her feet.
"Emily Bad"? Hero asked.
"Sometimes Hero, i hate how she dosn't let me use my power'!
"Me your friend, I fight Emily"! Hero pounced on a leaf and ripped it to shreds.
"No Hero you don't need to, i just wish that i had a real mentor, someone who would let me do things freely, someone who would understand that I am an Elemental mage"!
"I could help you with that". Said a voice from behind. Sierra turned around to find a women, her hair was black, and she looked almost like a vampiere, she had pointy ears, and a jewel shaped like a tooth, it shone bright white and silver, with just a hint of gold.
"Who are you". Asked Sierra.
The women smiled. "Your new mentour".
CHAPTER 7 Truth
"Okay remember feel the earth, and the wind around you, use it, borrow it's power now focus on the tree's"! Adraiane instructed. The group of tree's bent back and forth.
"Good". now again".
"But Adriane we have been doing this ALL day"! Sierra complained.
Dreamer talked to hero not to far away giving lessons of his own.
When your bonded needs you you have to pull them out of trouble, always stick together like a pack!
Dreamer, i don't need lessons, and besides i'm not a mistwolf, i'm a kumiho we don't have packs!
"Dreamer"! Adraine called. "Time to start the tour". Within a few seconds they were gone. Sierra let out a sigh of relief.
"I thought they would never leave".
"Dreamer said i should use better words". Hero said annoyed.
"Shall we go to the top of eagle ridge"? Siarra asked smileing.
"Your mentour lady said to meet her there right"?
"Right Hero". Sierra smiled. "She said she was the only on that could help me unlock my True powers".
"Who is that Lady anyway"? Hero asked curiously.
"I don't know yet, but Hero i need to learn something more then how to make the trees shake".
Sierra and Hero walked along on a path that was right between the bamboo forest, and the portal field.
"Oh you made it". Said the women. She looked exactly like she did yesterday. Only this time a black fox stood in front of her, he had a yellow star like marking on her forehead. It was full grown, and as big as a full grown human, with all nine of it's tails.
"This is my bonded Iris".
Hero aproched Iris and was impatiently facinated by her nine tails.
"How long does it take to get nine tails"? He asked.
"Oh not very long". Iris answered.
"Now we will begin".
Half an hour later sierra felt the earth in her hands, she moved it with her mind, levitating the large rock in the air was actually fun, more fun then Adrian's, Lesson.
"Very good Sierra, now we must test your ability to fight". The women, (Who's name was Amber) jumped back, landing on a high rock. "I will be your oppent, give me everything you'v got, and do not hold back, and remember you can't just fight with rocks, let your jewel fight to".
Amber had taught her that jewels were powerful weapons, if you knew how to use them.
Sierra's jewel glowed, a golden ribbon came out and coiled around amber, Amber gave a wicked half smile. From her jewel shot... Fier! Sierra ducked jut in time.
"You'll have to do better then that"!
"Sierra I help to"! Hero focused his energy on Sierra. She felt a charge of power. Iris leaped on top of Hero pining him to the ground.
"Sierrra'!He yelped.
"Come on"! Iris said. "Show me what you got". Sierra smiled, leading the energy back to Hero. Hero grinned, his ears became pointer with black tip's at the top, He also grew bigger, and more aggressive with that. Biting Iris's left front leg, and tackling her , both Kumiho foxes were now in a battle. Meanwhile Sierra had Amber just where she wanted her. With her mind she moved, the ground creating a rock slide. Tossing Amber over the edge. Then it all happened before her eye's. Kara was watching, down in the bamboo forest, She gasped the rocks fell over her. She screamed, Sierra imediently pulled the rocks back into levitation. Saving Kara and Lyra at the last minute.
"Good job". Said Amber dusting herself off, Hero turned to his original form.
"We meet tomorow at owl creek. Sunset".
"Wait"! Sierra said and turned around to find that Amber ans Iris were already gone. She turned to see Kara down at the bottom of the cliff, her eye's showed disbelief and fear. She ran back, Sierra didn't even try to stop her. It was to late she already knew the truth.
CHAPTER 8 MINDING YOUR OWN BUSINESS
"Kara wait"! Sierra yelled. Lyra jumped in front of Kara, ready to pounce.
"Stay away from her".
"Kara i didn't mean to pleas-".
"How did you do that? You almost killed me, your to powerful, like all the elemental mages"!
"Listen Kara, i'm just trying to practice". Sierra's jewel glowed a dark blue.
"Your just trying to practice...". Kara said, like she was in a tarns. Lyra to. Sierra smiled, somehow she was controlling her mind.
"You will not tell Emily, Adriane or anyone else".
Kara repeated once again.
"You never saw me, you were at your house this afternoon, you had a normal evening". Kara nodded and then walked away. Sierra manged to get into hiding, before kara snapped out of the trans.
"What am i doing here"? She asked herself.
Sierra giggled. This was one of the fist useful magic spells, she could use to get her own way.
CHAPTER 9 Cancelled lessons
Emily lay on Iher bedroom floor, Sierra was out walking the dogs, so far Emily had handled every animal with healing power, but when would her mom come back? It was almost the end of the week, Sierra had gotten stronger and...well better, she sometimes didn't even pay attention to her lessons, saying that it was boring. The phone rang from the living room. Emily rushed to answer it.
"Hello"? She said.
Emily, hi it's
"MOM"! Emily gasped. "Where have you been"?
"It's a long story, my flight to go to the collage, landed, because there was a huge wind-storm, i' the electricity was down for almost two weeks. And the plane i came on has been badly dameged'.
"OH my god, mom are you all right"?
"I'm fine i'm in California, people are staying in a motel, it's not very expensive.
"Mom Sierra's here'! Emily blurted out.
"WHAT'!
"She claims that you gave her permission to be here"?
"I did not give her-".
The line went dead, someone had cut it.
"MOM! Mom? mom". Emily gasped as a large lizard like creature gave her an evil grin from outside the window, before forming into emily's mom.
"I'll be back". It said, then disappeared into thin air.
"I'm telling you i saw the skultum"! Emily explained to her two friends in the Ravenswood libary.
'If you have been giving Sierra magic lessons, then i say her aura is almost fully attached to magic". Tweek said.
There was a long silence in the room.
'If the skultum gets her...". Adrians voice trailed off.
The door opened Sierra walked in.
"Hi everyone, i'm here to learn about spellsinging".
"Uh Sierra we never told you about Spellsinging". Emily said.
"And we have something to tell you-". Adriane said then nodded at Emily. Kara smiled.
"Sorry Sierra we can't let you learn anything more about magic".
"WHAT"! Sierra screamed.
"It's to risky". Adriane said.
"Besides Sierra, don't you already know, enough about magic".
Sierra glared at them, a wicked smile appeared on her face.
"Oh, I get it...i'm more powerful then you...".
The three girls looked at her in disbelief.
"Your jelouse, hah, well tell i'll you what i think. Sierra paused. "I think your all a bunch of weak mages, your bondeds are weak, your powers are weak, and you are weak! Your all just WEAK AND I'M THE ONLY MAGE THAT CAN ACTULLY USE HER POWERS AROUND HERE! I CHALLENGE YOU ALL TO A BATTLE TOMMOROW"!
"Sierra pleas just-".
"Oh no you don't Emily, you always pretend to act so nice and kind, at one point i thought you were cool, but you knew what i was and you kept it secret from me! You were going to let the SKULTUM GET ME'!
"What no Sierra I-". But it was to late Sierra was already out the door.
