The Four Elements by Saychi Tokiwa (the little red hen ebook TXT) 📕

ran backward, Camron thought he saw a glimpse of a smile. As she almost super speeded into the library. He glanced at Jack and they knew what each other were thinking. ‘Boy that girl is so fast she practically teleported in there. 

 

Daniel finished with Stupid Sam first and ran into the library. Camron and Jack followed fast just as they got through the doors all the windows and doors slammed shut. Shimmering slightly as if by magic. They saw Alexis who was hiding behind a bookshelf. Just at that moment it clicked. He had seen Alexis in his dream. And by the looks of things the others had realized the same thing. Alexis seemed to think that she also saw them in her dream so it was a quite confusing moment for them all.

 

Then they noticed a strange thing, Books started flying off the walls. Shane got one full to the face. Alexis got one to the stomach. It proved how small she was, it was a pretty large book and it blasted her backwards so she hit the wall and crumpled. Both Jack and Camron got one each to the arm.

 

It was a pretty weird moment. But it got even weirder when their hair straightened out. Alexis’s long plaits suddenly turned glowing lime green from the roots downwards, her hair undone from her waist-length plaits and it was just touching her feet. Daniel’s hair grew longer a tiny bit and turned red as flames. Camron’s hair turned blue as ice and it grew shorter. Jack’s hair grew scruffier and black as the deepest starless empty black hole.

 

Then suddenly they lifted into the air and hovered. Daniel doubled over in pain as flames licked up his legs. Alexis was bundled in vines and attached to the roof by the thick green strings. Water drenched Camron, than the water droplets froze into ice and shadows wrapped themselves around Jack pulling him tighter and tighter, All of them up in the air at this time (Alexis the only one not hovering).

 

Than they plummeted all at the same time. And landed on the hard ground at the same time but they didn’t go splat. Which was surprising because normally when you fall from a high place you go spat and die horribly.

 Than they just blacked out completely. With absolutely no trace of magic left in the room anymore. All the windows opened and the doors opened as if nothing happened.

 

 When Daniel woke up all he could see was darkness than it cleared and he realized he was in a forest. He looked around and he saw Jack and Camron, it looked like they were discussing something of mild importance.

 A few moments later they walked over and asked him if he knew where Alexis was. Only then did he realize that she was missing. A rustle came from an extremely tall tree with no branches up until halfway up the tall tree. They saw a pair of emerald green eyes peer down at them it looked like as green as cat's eyes. Than the eyes regressed into the tree and a blur jumped down.

 

Acting like she hadn’t just jumped out of an extra ordinarily tall tree with really high branches. Daniels jaw dropped and he stammered the words “how in hell did you get up there." "How could a nine year old one get up that tall tree?” Jack and Camron asked at the same time.

 

She just shrugged and glanced up at the tree. “Hurry up and talk you munchkin you're bloody pissing me off.” Daniel yelled annoyed at her silence. Alexis shrank back in shock. “You can’t even talk you idiotic little girl, you are the dumbest creature ever, why don’t you ever talk”. Next thing he knew she was right in front of him and was death staring him. Her death stare was so intense it was easy to prove that if looks could kill he would be a corpse lying on the ground rotting slowly.

 

She had to look up of course as she was practically half his size. So it was hard to stare him in the eye but somehow she managed it. The other too sort of hang back and stared. She looked away after a few moments. Then she looked back. Her eyes had a confused look on them. And the others didn’t know why until a few seconds later. Camron looked at Jack and mirrored the confused look on Alexis’s face. Jack looked at Alexis and just stood there his mouth slightly open, his eyes very wide. While Daniel looked at Camron his mouth way open, His eyes almost as big as dinner plates.

 

As they stared at each other well not exactly at each other but more just over their heads. Daniel felt a warm feeling spreading through his body from head to toe and all that’s in between. Camron started shivering and his teeth started chattering and he turned slightly blue. Alexis felt like she was being squeezed smaller and smaller until she could barely breathe. And Jack went momentarily blind, darkness covering his vision.

Jack Mecam

 

Daniel saw fiery red, literally his hair was on fire which as you know is not normal.    

 

   Camron’s hair was frozen solid, hard and cold. Jack’s hair was being tousled and played with by shadows, intertwining thick locks of black hair with midnight strands of shadows. Alexis's hair was twisted into two long plaits, instead of hair ties she had vines.

 

All of them stared at each other and gaped looking gormless. Alexis shot up another tree. Just than Daniel got his voice back and said at the same time as the other boys. ”What?” Than “How?” Than “Who?”. “Stop copying me” Daniel yelled. And accidently shot a ball of fire at Camron. Camron threw his hands in front of him and froze it but it kept on going. Jack’s hands went indistinctly in front of him and a shadow burst up creating a solid wall as to not let anything through.

 

Alexis had landed jumped from the tree she had originally been on to a tree much further away from the insanity of the fire, ice and shadows that were there a millisecond before.

 

 "Damn tree, stop it you munchikin!”Daniel yelled at her furiosly. He punched the tree. the heared a small whimper, it was almost animal like. Daniel turned around and looked calmer. Than he doubled over and they saw a branch return to it's normal shape.

 

As Daniel slowly collapsed into the ground Alexis jumped down and looked apologetic. She looked like she was thinking than she tried to help him up and ended up on the ground next to him. Daniel started laughing hard. The others started too. Alexis looked confused as she stood up and brushed herself off.

 

"Come on lighten up Lexie" Daniel said. "You gotta act like a child sometime in your life." Alexis just sent him a look that sort of said what and never in one. "Is it just me or should we get a move on" asked Jack. "Sure" Camron said. "I am so going to make you laugh one day" Daniel promised Alexis.

 

Presently they came to a road with a overly large tree fallen down right through the middle of it. Jack saw Daniel lift it up and throw it as if it was lighter than a black feather. No-one noticed a police car at the end of the road. But Alexis. She also noticed a tall police officer with a large moustache that looked real angry all the time. She started tugging on Daniels arm and pointing. If she talked that would be a lot quicker. Daniel soon got annoyed at her and grabbed the sleave of her school blouse and pulled it up lifting her off the ground. He swung his arm around and dropped her in a crumpled heap.

 

The police officer started pretending to inspect trees while calling for backup and still looking at them in the corner of his eye. Still they hadn't noticed him well apart from the tiny wimp. What was she doing, a small innocent, looking, five-year old sized girl hanging out with these big violent looking boys. As soon as backup arrived he strode up and said in that big booming baritone voice of his "What are you doing here". Alexis was the only one that didn't look startled Jack noticed.'Thats what she must have wanted to warn us about.' he figured.

 

      "That's none of your beeswax" Daniel said. "I don't like the way you talk boy" yelled thepolice officer. "I don't like the way you talk either" Daniel yelled back. "Get 'em" the police officer barked another officer grabbed Alexis and twisted her arms behind her back. "Let go of her" Yelled Jack, Camron and Daniel. Alexis surprised them. She wiggled her arms free of the police officer than she twisted around and kicked him into another. It was only a feeble push but he wasn't expecting it so it made him stumble into the other police officer and they landed into a heap on the ground.

 

"How much hair dye did you use to get your hair like that?" a police officer asked. "None these are our natural hair colours." Shane replied. The police officer looked confused.

 

           Alexis ran straight up the nearest tree. Jack looked up confusedly. She had practicly ran up it verticly. It was extremly strange. Apparently the police officer thought so too. His mouth was opening and closing but no voice was coming out at all. He looked like a cross between a stunned mullet and a confused goldfish.It took a lot of self control not to laugh at him.

 

            Apparently Daniel was not trying to be self controlled and laughed at the police officer. The police officer snapped out of his baffled fish look. He pulled out a gun and pointed it right between Daniel's eyes. "Run" Dainel said and they all started running. Alexis had jumped down right in front of them and was running fastest. She looked remarkably calm for someone who had just been almost arrested and found out that they may or may not have magic.

 

            As soon as they got to the street they found out that they all lived really close to each other. Alexis and Daniel lived next to each other and Camron and Jack lived next to each other across the street from them. This day was getting remarkably strange.

Alexis Secora

 

Alexis hurried home as soon as she got out of
