Opening my eyes I found myself in a large open field. Looking around I noticed the field stretched on for miles there didn't seem to be on end.

"Welcome Mai"

I turned around and saw a girl standing there. She didn't look to be any older than I was; she has dark brown hair that reached just past her shoulder blades. Her skin was the same skin tone as mine but her muscles were more defined. Her outfit was a little weird though. She had on a blue top that reached to her navel, and skirt which was also blue was about 8 inches from her kneecap. Her shoes which were also blue were heels and the straps wrapped around her legs. Her eyes were like the ocean in a raging storm and as blue as the sky. I didn't know how that was possible but they were. Her hair also had blue highlights running through it. This girl obviously liked blue because her nails were the same color. I looked a little closer and noticed she has the same jewelry as me. The same rings, bracelets even the same necklace, choker, and earrings. After starring at her for about two minutes, I realized I looked stupid just standing there so I responded to her welcome earlier with the question I had on my mind.

"Who are you?" the girl smiled and replied.

"It's me master I am Mizu."

"Ahh I see you're the one who has been talking to me."

"Wait!" I screamed you have a physical form.

After I had said that Mizu instantly started laughing.

"Ha-ha, master yes I do I'm sorry I should have showed myself to you the first time we met."

Getting embarrassed I shook my head. "No its fine it was just a shock, so anyway Water what are we doing here."

"Oh this is where you will be training."

"I see so what are we going to do first? I asked."

"First we will start with the basic hand-to-hand combat, and then move on to your control over your element and finally how to release your power seals.

"Power seals what do you mean?"

"Master, do you see the rings and jewelry I wear."

I nodded my head yes, "they are the exact same as mine."

"Yes, each piece of jewelry serves as a limiter, or seal. They restrict your power so everyday humans will not feel the pressure of your power, also Demons and psychics, cannot feel it. Anyway the rings are your main limiters. The one on your index finger will be the one you will use the most."

"Ok, so you said the rings are the main ones but why so many limiters?"

"Excellentquestion master, you see each one limits your power but can only seal 50% of your power…

"Wait, wait you said 50% but that means I would only need two rings right."

"Right you are, if you were a normal human who remembers the protection the elements give them. You see as you said you would only need two, but you Mai have a power level of 450%. There for you need 9 limiters."

When Mizu was done explaining I sat down holding my head, how can I have so much power? Mizu walked over and hugged me.

"Don't be scared it is because you are a Water Guardian. Water Guardians are the most powerful Guardians; they rule over the other Guardian's. You sister in fact is the 1stleader of the Guardians; she is the most powerful among them.

I looked up at water with surprise.

"Seriously so what does that make me?"

"You are the 5thleader, there is more to being a Guardian but I will not explain how we must get started."

I nodded and stood up and for the first time I noticed I was in my workout clothes.

"Ok master let's get started I only have two days to unlock your full potential."

Without warning Mizu began to attack me. I dodged as best I could but Mizu was too strong I was literally being pounded into the ground. I was disgusted with myself I apparently have all this power yet I couldn't even use it.

"Pfft, pitiful master I see you wish for all your friends to die at the hands of the Demon. Naru will be tortured, the Demon will play with him until he can't even fight back and then steal his power from him."

As Mizu spoke I could see the images of my friends in pain and crying for help and all I could do is stand there and watch.

"NO I won't let that happen."

With my declaration, everything seemed to slow down Mizu wasn't as fast as she was before I saw her punch coming. I caught her hand before it hit my face. My body seemed to move and flow on its own from there and I went on the offensive. I felt like hours had passed when Mizu held up her hand for a break. I fell and laid on my back catching my breath.

"I'm tired how long have we been at this?"

"About four hours."

I shot up and stared at Mizu "you have got to be kidding FOUR HOURS!"

"No, time flows differently here than in the waking world. What you're doing now is sleep learning. You will find when you wake up everything you experienced will be felt and what you have learned will have been ingrained into you."

"Wow that's pretty cool so how much time has truly passed."

"Hmm I would say about four minutes, but that isn't important you won't be able to move on until you can beat me."

I smiled I had finally gotten a hang of how to fight feeling that I had rested enough. I began attacking Mizu once again. As this continued I realized that I was becoming faster and stronger. Eventually I saw my opportunity I dodged Mizu's punch, I quickly grabbed her arm and flipped her to the ground. I placed one hand on her stomach and raised my hand to punch her.

"Stop! That was great master we can finally move on to the next step."

Mai moved away from Mizu and let her up.

"Ok so now I learn how to control my element better."

"Yep so let's get to work. Sit down and relax."

I did as Mizu said and sat down and took deep breaths until I relaxed. "Goodnext close your eyes and focus on your source of power and let it flow throughout your body."

Doing everything Mizu said I was about to give up after ten minutes when I felt a tingling in the pit of my stomach. Focusing on that feeling I felt a surge of power rush throughout my body. I opened my eyes to see streams of water flowing around me.

"Excellent Mai, you will not need me for this part your power will teach you."

Closing my eyes again I saw two figures standing there, one a boy and the other a girl. The girl looked exactly like Mizu except her hair was to her waist and the tube top came down to just below her breast and the skirt was now a mini skirt. The boy was wearing all blue as well. He had on jeans and shirt, as well as blue highlight and blue eyes. He also didn't have jewelry on. The girl started speaking a few seconds later.

"Welcome Mai, my name is sapphire and this is my partner his name is Saphire."
