《Written In Stone》Prequel

I’m a Flight Master. (Flying, lightning, storms, falcons sight, etc.)There are several of us. We have control over the realm of air or wind. Most of you are probably thinking, oh so you’re Superman or his back up squad. But really we are a lot cooler. You probably are thinking yeah right, but it's true. We protect air related items.

. For instance, hurricanes are often caused by our fighting, but it’s not as common as when we fight with the water surfers A.K.A people who control water. Tornadoes are made by a gang of Air-Angers. Also known as the Storm Gang, they cause the Flight Masters a lot of trouble causing all sorts of storms for us to clean up.

There are lots of other elemental masters such as Fire Welders, Extractors (earth masters) and Animal masters. Fire Welders control fire, geothermal heat, and paired with an Air-Anger or Flight Master they can create heat waves. Fire Devils, if they're strong, can make a volcano erupt. Fire Devils are fire gang members. All Fire Welders can do some extracting but not much. Extractors can extract minerals from the earth or build with earth at will. Special Extractors can do something called earth magic where they can help plants grow but the Great Elemental Ruler tries to stop it, because it’s the one thing he can’t do. The way he does that is with his Shadow Masters. So I live in Amentia ,an elemental land where we can control elements of the world. Okay, now, let’s get to the story so we know that I live in Air territory, Dragon’s Wind to be exact. Wait where are my manners? My name is Skylar some people call me Aurora for many reasons which are

Because of the things I did when I was born and every once and awhile where a swirl of colors blind the people near me and then I find myself hidden somewhere random. Sometimes when I’m overwhelmed with emotions an “Aurora” of color in the sky like 50 feet in the air or if I’m inside it is at the ceiling and other strange things.

I’m kinda an orphan. What I mean is I have no idea who my parents are but I have my uncle,

that's okay with me. I have a home that levitates. Before you bombard me with questions, I should probably let you know that that’s normal at Solar Winds, and arctic winds and other places in air territory. So now that you know all this we can finally get to my life story so let's start with here.

Skylar

Chapter 1: My Story

I’m running, running as fast as I can because it’s happened again. My powers have taken over and have caused a hover house to go higher than there ever supposed to go. “Skylar!”

“Oh good, I need you Carsen!” I said.

“Good I found you,” Carsen said, “We need to get inside before the shades are contacted, then you can tell me all about it”

“Kay”

We run through the alley and storm through the guards protecting the illegal Air Jet. We wooshed through the air. I saw the base shift I screamed but my voice was lost in the jet stream. We zoomed past the turn we were supposed to take. I started to panic. We were heading right towards the Shades! Pressure started to build in my ears. This can’t be happening please anything but another take over right now! I felt my powers start to take over, Suddenly I felt something holding on to my wrist. Carsen! I thought. He must have seen my panicked expression and thought to hold on. Then I felt my powers and my free hand started to form a two finger salute and I swiped in the direction of the right side of the tube. Suddenly up ahead I saw the Weather glass shatter, everything was getting sucked out through the hole. Then we were rocketing upward through the sky, It was such a delightful feeling but then we were falling, falling fast. “Carsen! You better have a plan or I’ll kill you before the ground does. “Hey!” “I thought we were friends!” “We are, but circumstances change!” I said. “ ‘kay, hold on.” He said in an exasperated sigh. He put his hand to his waist touching his hip with his palms, fingers pointing away from his body. We started slowing down, “were not slowing down fast enough!” I yelled. It wouldn't have mattered if Carsen did hear what I said because about a second after I said it the impact knocked me unconscious.

Chapter 2:The Crossroads.

My head feels like It does when there's no air in water and I'm hanging out under the surface. I thought. I looked around me and saw unconscious Skylar lying on the floor. She had a large goose bump, but it didn't matter, he could take care of it later, but right now he needed to look around their human crash site.

He looked up at the ceiling and surprisingly there was no hole. Her powers were always one step ahead. I looked around our surroundings and noticed that there was a tunnel in each cardinal directions, above each tunnel there was a carved symbol; one an W.S., one an M.C., one a R.O.C., and an E.B. and under it Suddenly a roar echoed all around the crossroads and a blast of heat shot out of the tunnel marked “” and under it “M.C.”. I didn't think about Skylar, my instincts just kicked in: I ran into the tunnel marked M.C. The stink of sulfur hit my nose like a hammer, but that's not what really hurt; the heat burned my lungs. “Can you chill out heat?” I croaked. A reddish glow originated from the end of the long tunnel. I was sweating so much now that I was soaked, I was now so exhausted that I was having a hard time even creating a small air bubble, but I still managed to make one of respectable size, and it was no sulfur smelling and cool. After what felt like hours I finally reached the source of the heat; Magma. I saw amazing things: I saw something that I thought looked like a Chimera trapped in a cage of water. I snuck around against the wall and found myself by a door with this symbol that looked to have been blazed onto the wood of the door. I reached for the handle but when I tried to grab it felt like someone had put a hot metal rod to the palm of my hand.

Skylar

Chapter 3:The mark

I woke up to hear a hissing noise, I opened my eyes to see Carsen shooting a burst of air at his hand. “Ugh, ow,” he said “Oh you're awake”

I wanted to say ‘no duh’ but instead, I said “Come on I know you burnt your hand let me see it,” I said,“No! There's nothing you can do about it ``''I know I can’t do anything but at least tell me what happened, please?” “Oh okay” “and you'll let me see, and tell me what the heck you thought you were doing that was not taking care of me since I'm such a hot of mess-” “and I’ll tell you what I noticed and promise never to do it again’ I promise mommy” he said in a straight face, then he burst out laughing. So he proceeded to tell his story.

Five minutes later:

-And do you feel anything different? Kinda when I was leaving the tunnel I no longer felt the heat. Try blowing an air bubble at me. “‘Kay” He blew an air bubble and I put my hand in front of it in stop motion, I examined the bubble with my mind (another thing we do (to tell air quality) ) “wow you really messed up you air bubbles, very warm and sulfery.” “fire?” The second he said that his hand burst in flames. “Your a πυρόω*?” I said. “Apparently,” Carsen said in a whisper. He swallowed, “Is that bad for our air?” “I don’t know, I don’t think it’s ever happened before.” “But before we try to figure that out should we maybe find out how to get out?” I said. “Also what does that trapdoor under us say?” I said. “I don’t know, It looks like an S.O., so let's go, do you get it?” “ya, I get it, so funny.” “Let's go check it out, please?” He said with baby eyes. “Fine, as long as you don't touch me you might be contagious, and you can't complain to me” bu- “And don't say you wouldn't have, I know you would have a lot of complaints. “What - What do you mean?

What is that supposed to mean? I’m gonna cry, you know I'm emotional and sensitive,” “- Ya I got that you're really sensitive.”

“So we're gonna go in there?” “Sure. ladies first.” Carsen said.

We go in and the darkness envelopes us.

Carsen

Chapter 4 :The trapdoor

*purr-en

The darkness weighed us down, it was the thickest black he'd ever seen.

Carsen thought. The air tasted like Iron and mildew, the shadows seemed to move of their own accord, they seemed to walk for miles. We soon heard voices, slowly getting louder finally they saw light from a dimly lit monitor “-So how many times have kids gotten away?” a gruff voice said. “- Eight.” One of the eight men in black cloaks said. “-Unacceptable! I need you to catch these kids because if mere children can get away with things like that, others will think committing bigger crimes are okay, AND THAT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE!!!” The man said. Skylar looked closer at the man speaking and saw a glint of gold “it's the king she whispered harshly to Carsen. “What was that you said?” “Nothing sir, nothing at all.” “Wait what is that behind you?” Then I realized they were talking about us, “run I say as my powers take over and use the air it last touched (Carsen’s air bubble) The shadows all around went away when the fiery ball passed by. In a moment we were consumed by the fire then everything lit up, and then we were gone.

Carsen

Chapter 5:The Treehouse

After we were consumed by the fiery ball of air we found ourselves in our secret treehouse that Taylor made with her weather skills by giving it exactly what it needed in the exact amounts. “Yo,” Taylor said as she floated down from the ceiling “So what’s new?” “I'm kinda a *πυρόω.” Carsen said, “Woh, tell me you're just saying that to get attention.”

“Nope, it’s true,” He replied. “So is it contagious?” “it's a mark, of course not” “on the happy note where's Ostin? “Here”

Ostin said, “How's your weather warrior training going?”

“Besides the fact that Coach found out were the trouble makers and banning me for good but I’ve been using a winding tornadascope to spy on them so I can still train, but I’m doing fine” (a winding tornadascope is tornado telescope) ̈so what new things have you learned?”

̈ ̈the twister̈ he said like this, he

*py-roo

then he twisted his hands in a quick motion, a fast moving vortex of are shot out of his hands and punched a hole through the floor “Sorry, did mean for that to happen.” he said “its fine” Taylor said “Um, guys we might want to take a few lessons from Ostin because the king knows that we know the Shadow Master’s cave” “What why didn't you tell us first?” “I was scared” a roar split the air “What did you do Carsen?” I tried the twister and I'm definitely a Φωτιά* πυρόω, also I light the tree house on fire.”

*Foe-tee-ah

“Thanks a lot,What was that for,Taylor can you put that out?”

“sure thing” suddenly there was a hissing noise and lots of steam then the fire was gone with no trace it was ever there. “So we brought some friends,” said Taylor, “What?!! Who?!!” “Cale and Gunnar” “the bully two?”

“Ya they can teach us all sorts of moves plus they have a secret they want to share, they’re πυρόω, Cale is a water type, Gunnar shadows. “Yup” say Cale and Gunnar as they step out from the trapdoor. “Yo” they say then quickly do this with their handsthen thisthen a air bubble appeared around their hands then they shook their hands and flung it like they were flinging water at someone, a air bubble shot at me and knocked me off my feet. You got to learn some moves like that and like the one Ostin showed you, I mean you are the troublemakers so you gotta learn to defend yourself, and boy oh boy have we got some moves for you to learn, I personally think you’ll love it.

It’s been a whole day and I've still not learned a single defense move, you should have seen the fire dragon, it almost lit the house on fire then we went down the trunk to the rooms and we all slept.

When we all woke up we went out and hunted after we cooked the squirrel with the move Carsen learned we gorged ourselves. We decided to take everyone to the “room with the doors'' or the cross rode and we weren't sure how to get there but then ostin said if that’s where he became a Πυρόω if does a flare because he was originally an air if he does a flare wherever the smoke goes is where he became fire. So we did it. The smoke just went up but then a crazy strong wind blew it away we had to fly to keep up with it. We found the cross road and entered the tunnel where Carsen was fired, and the stench, I would rather have been gagged with a spoon. We tried to be quiet but Cale and Gunnar were loud (on account of their large bodies)

We found the lava pit and were attacked by fire guards but carsen did a twister to them and it did nothing but I did a twister and it knocked them into a lava pit. Carsen showed us the door he touched and he opened it (he could because now he's fire,and AWW it's a baby fire dragon, It's so cute. I quickly stuffed it into my backpack before everyone saw it. “Whoa it’s a baby phoenix I wonder if we could get a tail feather we could make fire potions”

Ostin said but before I could stop him he plucked a tail feather “we can take it if you want to make more than one,- “your the best” he said as he pulled me into a great big bear hug. “Stuff it into the back pack” “how did a dragon get in here?” he said I smiled sheepishly “I couldn't resist” I said he laughed “just like you” he said “and it breathes fire win win”

Chapter 6:the escape

The door banged open, it was the fire guards and they were angry and weren't alone; the shadow guards were with them. Suddenly gunnar melted into the shadows, I sent a wave of fire at them and before it reached them Cale sprayed it with water and creating steam but it wasn't steam it was stone it was raining stones suddenly the stone collected into a crudewall then a hole appeared on the wall behind us and some rebel extractors walked through the door suddenly a Chyklos jumped on a extractor, “no puddles stop!” said cale as he made a “come at me motion, making the chyklos zoom towards Cale

“Where'd you get that” I asked “I have my ways” he says then in a

gruff voice the leader (you can tell it's the leader if they have a diamond hard hat) of the rebel extractors said “come on, the wall won't last forever” he says. We rush through the opening as it starts to close and then the ground opens up into a slick slide, so slick it was like it was coated in butter.

Skylar

Chapter 7:The platinum burrow

We slid into a large spacious room made of platinum where we see earth born, manticores and piles of gems and metals. Somewhere nearby someone is making weapons out of some of the metals and stones. Then the diamond hat dude hands us a staff with seven divots in it one of the divots had a stone of amethyst in it. “What are these?” i ask “these are 180 centimeters (70 inches) of extraordinary adamantite in the form of a staff. Glowing runes are carved along the entire staff with the exception of the handle, which has been wrapped in leather with gilded linings.”

Then he hands us all swords The blades have a large, curved crossguard, adding just enough weight to make sure the blade sits firmly in the owner's hand and protecting those same hands as well. The cross-guard has a gilded claw on each side, and a fairly small pommel which is decorated with precious gems.

“Your need to know something, the King is allied with the demon king, Muzodon.” The leader said “we found out at the ‘War of the demon lands” He said as a man dressed in weird armor made of adamantite passed by us.

Then he stopped in front of a door that marked with a sign that said “hatchery” inside were animals of all kinds

“You may all choose one animal as a companion and protection” he said then I ran to the purple wolf saying “I want this one” “great choice, the wolf of thought also known as neuron.” “I want the fire fox” said Carson “excellent choice, sparks is quite the cuddler.” “ I want the air dragon” Taylor said “Aella is a great air dragon” “I’ll take the stag who i’ll call etheon” said Ostin “i'll take the lion who i'll call shademus” said Gunnar “very good now it's time to meet our king, and queen.” we walk out of the room holding our new friends. Then we hit a wall. The diamond hard hatted man put his staff inside a hole in the wall and then walked through the wall we followed him.

We found ourselves inside an ornate room made of marble with images wrought of gold and silver and gems of all kinds sitting on beautiful thrones made of adamantite were the king and queen. a “Right next to them was a wizard that could do earth magic” the diamond hatted man said

“By the way, I thought you might want some fire potions so I took the phoenix and the dragon, we will keep both as payment for rescuing you.” the diamond hatted man said. Then the king cleared his voice then said “It is our honor to have our fellow rebels here with us. I take it you were given the staffs? He said “yes my lord” I said then the queen said “how do your parents feel about you being rebels, do they even know?” she said in a caring tone “No mylady we are all orphans” Ostin said “Oh you poor children” she said without a hint of sarcasm in her voice “husband lets give them nice soft clothes and food and a good bath” she said waving her hand in front of her nose in a teasing manner. “You are right my dear Sarah, you must be very tired” he said to us “yes my lord” Carson said “then let them rest!” the king said. As we were leaving I heard the mage ask the king “can we speak in private?” “sure, leave me dear wife” the king said.

Chapter 8: The assassin

I woke up to the sound of screaming. I cast off the covers not feeling tired at all, as if I haven't even slept. I pulled on the boots and chain mail as fast as I could then while running tied my sword belt and slipped on the ring that the mage had given me last night. I then followed the screams till I came to the source, the queen and her servants. I got a glance of what they were screaming about the king was lying in a puddle of blood with a knife of adamantite in his back. I quickly tried to make a fireball to provide some light and all I got was a little pop and some smoke. ‘That's weird’ I thought, the mage said it would make my control of my powers stronger, then i thought what if the mage didn't want me to have control of my powers maybe the ring makes it so i can’t use them, then it it all came back the mage asking for a private meeting, then he must have stabbed the king and then gave me the ring so i couldn't fight him if i ended come to the realization of the fact that he killed the king. Then I threw off the ring and made a fireball so to better see the king around the knife was a patch of charred skin. I told one of the servants to get the queen to safety while me and my friends investigated. I ran to my friends rooms then as I neared the corner I ran straight into Skylar. “Skylar the kings been murdered, and I think I know who did it” I said then she beat on the others doors as I unsheathed my sword. Within minutes we were ready to fight. “Let's check out the barracks first” i said when we got there the barracks were on fire. “I knew it he made us all rings so we couldnt fight him because he knew if he burned down the barracks we would be the only ones able to fight him.” “So get the rings off and call your animals, because we're gonna fight him.”

Ostin

Chapter 9: the fight

“Okay, what do we do now?” I said to Carson

We were in the alchemy room leaning against the wall farthest from the door, as I moved around trying to get this spot where there was no brick. No brick!!! I thought to myself I reached where there was no brick and my hand went right through the wall! “Guys i found something.” I said then I wiggled my hand around as everyone crowded around me. I felt a little thing like a handle that is on the back of a shovel then without thinking, I pulled it. The room started to rotate then a door appeared “quickly, run through the door!” i said to the others. We ran through the doors just as the wall closed behind us. We ran straight to the hall straight in front of us when Gunnar yelled “stop!”

Then he turned to shadow and ran down the hall we heard a bunch of noises including a ‘shing!’ and a ‘thud!’ then Gunnar emerged from the darkness “its safe now, i set off all the traps” he said we all drew our weapons, I drew my crossbow and Taylor drew her spear Gunnar drew an ax while Kale drew his trident. I ran to the next room and I saw Carson and Skylar drew there weapons which were swords and twin bowie knives. Then as we rushed into the room In heard a hiss “Duck!!!” I yelled as I realized it was a dart. Then everything went black, i had no idea how bad things could get.

(there is more but i thought that i'd put part of it in)
