《Unprecedented》Chapter 14
Advertisement
Miraculously I had to spend quite a lot of time with Hailey this week. She signed up for my team of the organizers and was in charge of the guest list and chaperone. Then a few days later we bumped into each other again at the Library today.
She was doing research for chemistry, meanwhile I was taking down notes from an English essay. After some idle chatter we both seemed to have gotten pretty absorbed into deep conversations. She said that she lived in Boston her whole life and she knew some of the kids that went to the school because she went middle school with them, also her family was well known in the country. Her mom was a architect builder, and she had a step brother. She shared memories from middle school, and how close she and Tony were. Her face grew red when she told me that she had eventually developed a crush on Toni, she never found the courage to tell him but decided to tell him at the spur of the moment when she found out that she was moving. He didn't quite return her feelings and was indecisive about it. Then she left and she was forced to move on, though they promised to keep in touch the contact it seemed to die away after awhile.
"Yikes.." I winced with a tiny laugh. "That was hard."
"I know right? I bet he's still indecisive." She smirked.
I rolled my eyes at her. "When isn't he ever indecisive?" I chuckled.
"But that's my guy."
"Yeah, it's nice to see him happy with a good person." She admits honestly. I gave her a playful glare. "Stop it."
"It's true. You are pretty nice." She says. I felt a small blush creeping to my cheekbones. I was about to say thanks when her face suddenly lights up. "Oh! I almost forgot to give this to you." She slips her hand into her purse and pulls out a neatly decorated cream envelope and hands it to me.

"My parents are having a welcome party next week. You should come by with Toni." taking the envelope gingerly.
"Really? Sweet. Thanks the invite." I accepted her offer. "I'll definitely plan on coming."
She got a text on her phone and she started packing up her things. "I gotta go. My mom is taking me shopping for baby shower gifts." Then she got up. "So I'll see you then?" She asked smiling.
"Yeah, for sure. I'll see you then." I smiled back.

Madness Led by the Hands
‘Great, no… splendid. It was for naught.’ ‘Naught? Depends. If your desire is to send an army of killers our family’s way, yes indeed. If it’s plain survival you seek, then no.’ ‘They don’t coexist?’ ‘What… don’t tell me you’re still all groggy from the fall. Perhaps in novels, but real life is much tougher–––many more times a drag than anyone can possibly imagine. If dusty history is not a reliable teacher for you, then the pandemic surely took that place. At least that one has the advantage you needn’t be literate to savvy how reality always trumps imagination.’ ‘Whatever you say, whatever you say. So… what now?’ ‘Now? Isn’t it obvious? Now we shall survive. And live a good life.’ ‘Ohh… pretty much everything here has something against this little weird wish of ours. Might you consider?’ ‘Then pretty much everything here is a goner.’ ‘Hm, I don’t like the sound of that. Too much trouble, you see. I’d prefer laying low somewhere safe.’ ‘…nobody told you it’s mutually exclusive, no–––or did you forget about that too?’ ‘Fine, then I wish my future enemies all the best.’ ‘They are undeserving of your pity.’ ‘Of course not. That unlucky bunch won’t ever comprehend the reason behind their demise. Just let me smoke in peace and offer my condolence in advance.’ ‘Idem, let me study alchemy, unobstructed by all, if possible. This also includes you. By the way, are you sure you smoke to offer condolences? It seems like an excuse to me.’ ‘I-it is none. Plain truth, you see?’ ‘Seriously, why did I even ask...?’

The Fire Within Can Be Scary
In a fantasy world similar to ours, magic worked similarly to physics, with each elemental spirit magic being tied to a state of matter. Earth is solid.Water is liquidAir is gas.Fire is plasma. Four elements, four states of matter. However in the ancient world of Hitarea, "Plasma" hadn't been discovered yet. The people of this world believe that only three states of matter existed, and thus, only three elemental magic could exist. For years, Earth, Water, and Air stood alone as the three main elements from which all others originated. Advanced arts like metal from earth, or Ice from water were only extensions of their original element . . . so what does that make Fire? Fire is powerful as the earth with its mighty explosions, flexible like water as it writhes around in the air, and swift like the wind. All at the same time. Fire, in regards to combat, is the most powerful element by far. This fearsome power is Alden's to master, but this power is a double-edged sword. One shouldn't play around with fire if you don't want to be burned. The fire within can be scary, you know?
