Prologue: Gone Forever

I was born, probably the biggest mistake I've ever made... Existing, being alive, because all it did was bring trouble. That's what I thought at first...

 

I ran around the field a bunch of times with Bella and Lucy, my best friends. We chased each other and laughed with shining smiles, the most precious smiles on earth. The sun was bright and blazing.

โ€œLet's get some water!โ€ I suggested with a wide grin.

โ€œGood idea, I'm dying!โ€ Bella replied. We walked over to an old dry water pump. I pressed the handle but no water came out.

โ€œLet me try!โ€ Bella said as she shoved me away. I smiled and watched her pump the handle a million times.

โ€œIt's the dry season, there won't be much water.โ€ I giggled as I looked up at the sun.

โ€œHey, where's Lucy?โ€ she suddenly asked.

โ€œI don't know, she was right here.โ€ I added. We looked around us, but there was only a dry field where we were playing. I turned around and saw Carl, another friend of mine, running up the hill.

โ€œHello!โ€ he greeted.

โ€œHi! Did you see Lucy?โ€ I said back. He shook his head.

โ€œWasn't she with you?โ€ he explained.

โ€œShe was but she just disappeared...โ€ described Bella.

โ€œAnyway, your mom wanted us to collect some of the crops that are still fresh.โ€ Carl remarked.

โ€œOh, well, we can look for Lucy later. She probably found some water.โ€ I assumed. With that, we walked towards the crop field. Most of the crops were dry. I was only about five, short and adorable. All the kids in my village were cutest when they were five years old.

โ€œNone of these are fresh...โ€ concludes Carl, as he picked up another dead crop. I looked at my friend's disappointed face, then at the sky. The sun was now blazing hot. I closed my eyes and felt something. Water... Water... Rain... I slowly rose my hand put them in the air. I concentrated harder... Something going to happen, something big. I opened my eyes and a droplet of water fell on my nose. I stared at it in awe. Another fell, then another. Soon, it was raining! I looked at Bella and Carl, with their mouths wide open. I broke the silence and smiled.

โ€œIt's raining again!โ€ I cheered. They both smiled and we started to run around the field. I looked the sky once again. Did I make it rain? No, it's just a coincidence. Or was it...

Chapter 1: The Day Came

I was surrounded by water. Everything just wasn't clear. My life was ruined, my future, what was going on?! Suddenly, a splash of freezing cold water splatted on me.

โ€œWake up Jane!โ€ said a familiar voice. It was Carl.

โ€œCarl?โ€ I moaned. Great! The man I liked was waking me up.

โ€œQuick! It's time for the ceremony!โ€

โ€œWhat ceremony?โ€ I questioned.

โ€œNo time to explain. Just, dress up and get outside!โ€ he called as he ran down the stairs. I looked confused. What ceremony? I got up and looked at my bandage from yesterday. Training, just training. I looked at a bucket of water. I thought back at my dream. Water... I concentrated and put my hand in front of the water. The water levitated. It was amazing. I possessed the element of water! As soon as I got dressed, I saw Bella.

โ€œBella!โ€ I exclaimed. She turned around and hugged me.

โ€œHey!โ€ she greeted.

โ€œI have the element of water!โ€ I jumped with glee.

โ€œThat's not new.โ€ she sighed. I was confused. She grabbed my arm and brought me to the centre of the village where the Fountain of Beginning stood. There was a big crowd around the rim of the fountain. The whole village was staring at me. The mayor of the village brought me up in front of townspeople. I saw Shi Fu, my master, staring at me. What was going on? I looked at everybody.

โ€œJane, dip your broken arm in the water.โ€ asked the mayor. I did as he said. The water soon was travelling up my arm. Little streams. I was amazed. My arm felt better. The crowd gasped. Next, the mayor asked me to try to levitate the water. I concentrated like in the morning when I just woke up. Water... Rise... Fountain... Beautiful... The water levitated again.

โ€œWe have an element holder!โ€ announced the mayor.

 

                                                                                 **********

 

I went up to Shi Fu for some answers.

โ€œShi Fu, what is going on?โ€ I asked, still surprised and confused at the same time.

โ€œYou're the chosen one, the one to seek the Diamond of Truth.โ€ he explained, as he started to walk.

โ€œWhat chosen one? What diamond?โ€ I was confused. He sighed.

โ€œLet's start from the very beginning Jane. Long ago, the world was created using four elements: water, fire, earth and air.โ€

โ€œContinue...โ€

โ€œBut not everyone apprieciated the creation. There was also the Evil World, the demons and their Great Dark Lord, as you know. They were greedy and wanted to possess or control the four elements. So to keep the dark side from controlling the four elements, they have been passed down to four special people. Each possessing one element,โ€ he paused for a moment. โ€œOne of them was your ancestor. So you possess the element of water.โ€

โ€œWhy do I have to find this Diamond of Truth? What does this diamond have that's so important and special?โ€ I complained.

"The diamond is a symbol of peace and to show the truth. The demons could use it to find great power." explained Shi Fu.

"So I'm suppose to find this Diamond of Truth and protect it from the demons?" I ensured.

โ€œYes, the lessons we've learned was to prepare you for the day. The day you leave. The day you will start a new journey.โ€ he added. I paused for a long moment.

โ€œYou mean, I have to leave? Forever?โ€ I asked.

โ€œNo, not forever. But maybe for a couple of years. Ah, and your sword possesses the element of water too. Use it against demons like we practised.โ€

โ€œWhen do I leave?โ€ I asked my last question.

โ€œTomorrow.โ€

 

I walked slowly towards the streets. Everyone stopped and looked at me.

โ€œJane!โ€ cried Bella. I looked at her. โ€œSurprising, eh?โ€

โ€œYeah.โ€ I replied. Suddenly, Carl came up to me. โ€œCarl!โ€

โ€œHey.โ€ he greeted.

โ€œOh, I need to help out with something...โ€ added Bella, knowing that she was trying to say 'I better leave you two alone...'

โ€œSo,โ€ said Carl, with his cheeks red and his hands in his pockets. His brown bangs blocked his eyes, like usual, trying to hide his emotions.

โ€œYeah, I'm leaving tomorrow.โ€ I sighed.

โ€œWow. That's soon.โ€ he said.

โ€œUm, Carl,โ€

โ€œYeah?โ€

โ€œDid you know about this?โ€ I asked. Our eyes met each other and we gazed at each other.

"We had theories until that day you made it rain. Remember? You asked for rain when we were collecting the crops and it started raining." It was true. That day, so many things happened to me. For one, it was my birthday. My birthday, the day Lucy disappeared... The day I made it rain.

โ€œOh. Well, it was a funny moment!โ€ I pointed out.

โ€œYeah,โ€ he giggled. โ€œI'm gonna miss you. You're funny, nice, the village won't be the same.โ€ I blushed and looked back at him.

โ€œI'll always remember the happy memories.โ€ I admitted. He looked down at his navy blue sweater and moved his bangs. We looked at each other for a long time. There was nothing else to say. Everything I had learned in this village was to prepare me for tomorrow. The day I began something new.

                                                             *************************

โ€œSo I guess this is goodbyeโ€ sighed Bella. After I had found out I was the chosen one destined to find the Diamond of Truth, I had more respect than any person in the world.

โ€œIt's fine Bella,โ€ I said to cheer her up, โ€œI'll be back as soon as I find that diamond.โ€

โ€œBut Jane!โ€ she argued, โ€œWhat- what if you never come back?โ€ I started to hesitate. What if Bella is right? What if I never come back alive? I didn't reply as if I didn't know. I grabbed my weapon and my bag and headed off into the woods. My village waved and it all went silent. I seemed to see Carl at the front, waving at me. Sixteen years of age... Chosen to find a diamond... Defeating demons and... with the element of water. Okay, okay. I get it! Ever since I was born, I had a relation with water. The village lived near a river. My village isn't very big. Just a little area in the West. As the West villagers say, โ€œThe smallest things are the most special in the worldโ€. Our houses were ordinary ancient chinese houses. We have two levels and it's quite cozy in there...

 

As I walked farther and farther away from the West, it was getting dark. By now, demons would be roaming around looking for someone to take over. Demons belong to a different world, known as the underworld. Some would escape and enter our world, and take over human beings. It's pretty scary how they do it. They're like ghosts. They see heat, so whatever is hot or warm (like a human), what they see is a purple- red coloured figure. The rest shines blue or black. They make this heavy breathing sound when they're happy or hungry. They can make this rustling noise through the trees. Demons can take over any living or dead body. As long as it was once alive, demons have the ability to take over it. No one can perfectly describe a demon. They're sort of like black ghosts. When they are killed, they disappear into a black smoke. Demons can hurt you in 2 different ways: biting and taking over your body. Once you are bitten by a demon, you slowly turn evil. The only cure is to dip your injured body part to the Fountain of Peace. If not, you will be evil for the rest of your life. The bite turns permanent after 2 nights, after that, it becomes permanent. Demons can take over your body by simply just charging into your body. All of a sudden, your mind can't control your body. You don't know what is going on and what you're doing. I can't be demon possessed because I have special powers. I'm not completely human. I'm a element holder. It just means I can't be taken over. But I can be bitten. I can kill a demon when it is possessing a body. I just simply strike my sword at the human as if I were killing him/her and the demon inside dies. Demons are mostly active at night. That's why I better be careful.

 

As the sun sets, I gather fire wood, food and materials for a good shelter. I don't really need a shelter because I could just melt into water and sleep in the river bed. The river is my survival. I get healed, fed, protected by water. I make a fire and start to fall asleep. Suddenly, I hear a rustle in
