Jack woke up with banging on the door. Avery peeked though the door hole and saw three masters.

"What do you want?"

"We know that we called a free time day, but I would like to see Steve."

Steve started to worry. Did they know about the dragon?

"We would like you to know that there have been some bite marks around camp."

Jack started to panic. Had Allen got loose?

"We want to keep an eye out for rats so please put magical mousetrap around the craven tell the rest of the radiants."

Jack just mentally relaxed when Allen choose the wrong time to come out of this trapdoor.

The masters froze and so did everyone else. Steve saw a bit of shock and fear in their eyes. He could never tell other peoples expression. It wasn't a talent of his. Allen sniffed the new visitors. The first master just stood as still as possible. When Allen lick the master, he lost it. The second master ran for help. She also cast a spell that sounded just like the morning bell. The third one was getting everyone out of the cave. It took fifteen minutes of running and jumping for the first master and target aiming with an ice spell from the third master before Allen finally got tired and fell asleep on the floor. The second master looked at Steve.

"You have some explaining to do, buddy."

Jack just stared ahead at the other two masters.

During the late afternoon, after he had to clean up and wait for his jury with the six elementals in his cavern with his friends

"Jack, you are so dead."

"Nick, you are too."

"You're more dead."

"No, you are."

"No, you-"

"Steve, now it is time for your trial."

Steve walked outside. All the mages were there. The elemental kings and queens were sitting there. Victor, the dark mage,

"Steve, we had found a dragon in your cavern, right?"

"Yes"

All the mages took an involuntary gasp.

"And you brought it into your cavern, right?"

"Yes."

"So that lea-"

"Hold on!"

Everyone turned and looked at the dark lord. He rarely talked at all.

"Did the dragon resist you when you brought it in?"

All the mages looked confused at this question. Only Victor seemed to understand.

"Vangard, I don't think the-"

"Don't address me by my name!"

The temperature went down thirty degrees. The other elementals started to show worry, and Victor had his eyes wide in fear.

"Now, Jack, did the dragon resist you when you came in?"

"No."

Vangard let a small smile play on his lips, which for him, was like cartwheeling and shaking noisemakers. The fire lord leaned in as if the most important part of the trial, and the end. Rickinsar looked surprised. Everyone actually looked shocked, expect for the Air queen, who was making mini tornadoes for her amusement.

"Boy, why didn't you tell us earlier?"

"Because I would get in trouble sooner. "

"You're not in trouble!"

"Wait, what?'

He sighed.

"Every mage has a small chance of being a dragon rider. This means that they can be with the dragon and use the dragon's elemental powers."

"So what element is my dragon?"

"Let's see."

The dragon was let from a cage. He was placed in the middle of the elemental lords. Allen turned around a bit, then started to head for the fire lord, but decided to fall asleep with his head on his tail.

"I guess we'll see after he wakes up."

"Let's first show the new students first."

There were three new students. They kept on hanging in the shade of the treees, so Steve guessed they were very hot. They rather looked suspicious.

"My name is Vaug."

"My name is Baug."

"My name is Taug."

All three seemed to come from the Cold Rocks, a place in the mountains where it was cold. They had strange names, that was for sure. Mabye there the names weren't creative and based off of one kid.

"Now they are part of the ... drumroll please."

Jack started to drumroll when Victor anounce the element.

"All dark."

Suddenly, the one in the middle, Taug or Baug, dropped a blue stone. It the sprouted a portal that was a blue, not a sky blue, or baby blue, but the blue you saw in the middle of the night. A Shade came out, and that was when people started to panic. Jack stumbled back, and saw where everyone was going. There was a cave, where the waws another portal of blue-green color. Everyone was running in, so he grabbed Allen and ran in.
