Chapter 2: All in one
(River)
as we walked down the hallway, My other friend Emily ran right into us.
"Jeez. Your energetic today huh." I said. She looked as thou she had a lot of electricity running threw her body. "Sorry. I've just felt really hyper lately." Emily said.
"Ok. But why don't you come with us. I am taking Sierra to the nurse again. She said she still feels a little to cold." I said. And with that she walked with us. but as we entered we saw siting in the chair next to the door was Kyle.
"Whats wrong with you dude." I asked. He looked up. "I don't know. I just started feeling sore and didn't want to move." Kyle said. I just looked and sat Sierra down and went for the nurse.

I couldn't believe that on the first few seconds we found 2 of the 4 we needed to take back with us. "Flame. Flame!" Ember said shaking my shoulder.
"Sorry. I am just wondering as to how we are going to get to those 2 with out the other people in this structure seeing us." I said. Ember just shook her head. And I started to think for a bit. It was then I remembered what I was told.
'All but the 4 will see you as their kind. But the ones you are looking for will see you in your true colors.' And I had to test it. So when I saw another person walking up I jumped out and went to talk to him.

My brother was starting to freak me out. For the past 3 days he had been raving about these strange dreams he had been having. I didn't really think nothing off them but I was starting to wonder if all these games had been getting to his head.
I was so much in thought that I didn't notice the kid coming from behind. It wasn't till I felt a hand on my shoulder that I turned around to see him.
"Um I. Can I help you with something." I asked annoyed. Because for one it didn't look like this kid went to this school and two he nearly scared the socks of my feet.
"Um. Yeah. Do I look normal to you at all?" He asked me. And I didn't really know why. He looked fine. HE was wearing a shirt with flames on it and a black pair of pants. He had black hair with red highlights and had a normal skin tone. "You look fine to me but you sure do dress oddly." I said.
But then a girl comes running from behind and by the looks of things she didn't seam to happy at all. "Flame! Are you nuts?!" She said. She was wearing a heart pendant necklace with a pink shirt and pants. And her hair was completely died that color. 'Wow somebody likes pink' I thought to myself.
"Ember it is ok. Only the ones we are looking for can see it." Flame said. At that point I thought 'Ok another weird little kid.' so I turned around and started walking back to the school.
I didn't want to be annoyed any more then i already was at the moment.

After we all go checked we exited the nurses office. "So we a just wait outside then." Kyle said. Emily and Sierra had to carry him because he didn't ewant to move.
The nurse had told us to go wait out side for pick up. But seeing as how we would have to wait a while, I decided to start a conversation with Sierra or whoever.
"So how long have you guys been feeling like this?" I asked. Kyle and Emily looked at me before answering. "About 3 days." They both said. This had stopped my blood cold for a bit.
For it was also about that same time when my weird dreams and overheating started. I was sure that the next answer to the next question i would ask, I wouldn't like at all.
"So have any of you guys had any weird dreams lately?" I asked. "What about?" Sierra asked still shivering. "Oh I don't know. Like maybe snakes, Dogs,Dragons, cats." I said.
At the word Dragons all 3 of them looked at me and I knew I had their attention at that moment. "I will take that as a yes then." I said nervously.
I really didn't like the look of panic and shock I got from their faces. It made me feel as if something was at play that I didn't want happening.
But as I was about to say something else, Emily's mom pulled up. "Look we can talk about this later River. See you later." Emily said getting into the car. And as her mom drove off Kyle got up and tried to step. And I could see he hurt with each step.
He grabbed his keys from his bag and started walking to his truck. "See you guys when I don't feel sore anymore." Kyle said getting in and driving off.
I looked at Sierra who was still shivering. "You must really feel cold." I said feeling my forehead. I was starting to feel a little overheated again.
She looked at me and nodded to answer my question. "I see my dad coming. Maybe this will blow over in a few days." She said getting up.
"Well I'll see you then ok.' I said. But e turned before getting into her dads truck and said. "Yea. Hopefully my twin will be better to." She said smiling.
I hatted it when she called me her twin. And she did it because she knew that it bugged me. But I just laughed and lid down on the bench waiting for my mom.

Shock was the one word I had on my mind. All of the 4 we needed went to this school or what ever they called it. And they all showed signs of the elements coming out.
I looked at Ember and she was silent. "Come on. Maybe we can talk to him." i said pointing to the last of them laying on the bench. "Are you sure about this Flame. HE doesn't look like he has and element in him." She said a little frightened. She then backed away a little.
I just shook my head and started walking up to him. But as I got close enough I saw that he was covering his eyes with his arm. So he didn't see me coming. And I was about to say something when he surprised me.
"What ever it is make it fast. I am not in the mood to deal with anything." He said. And I just stood their shocked. He knew that I was their. That was also when Ember decided to walk behind me.
"Um is it ok if I ask you a question?" I asked. "Might as well since you started talking to me." He said with a slight breath in his voice. I could tell he was breathing very hard. But why.
"Um well first off. What is our name." I asked him. He just let out a sigh. "My name is River Henry. Nice to meet you." He said. And I saw that he was still covering his eyes. He wasn't attempting to look at us at all.
"I wanted to know if you possess any of the four elements." I said. i then heard him stop and catch his breath like he figured something out. "Kid if this is a joke, I will be very upset." River said.
"But to answer your question. I don't know what your talking about." River said. I looked at him again and I could see that he was sweeting. "you ok River?" I asked a little curious.
He then took a heavy sigh and then a deep breath. "I am just a little overheated. Although I have no idea why." He said.
After that I then saw a metal machine stop and some one inside it called his name. "Look I have to go." he said getting up. And he didn't even turn to look at us as he did.
As he drove off in the strange machine Ember nudged me. "Flame. You think he could be one don't you." Ember said. I shook my head. "He seams to carry the fire element. Now it is just a matter of showing ourselves and explaining the situation to him and his friends." I said.

Emily:"Whatever."
