~Prologue ~

​

The trees swayed and the cars passed fast in the streets of Tokyo, Japan. There, a little 4 year old girl looked through her window.

Her name is Sadaku. Her eyes have two different colors with markings on her pupils. Her left eye was a shade of light blue, with her pupil shaped as a triangle. Her right eye was a light yellow, and the pupil was shaped like a hexagon. She and her parents have been living in a big mansion the past 2 years after they got rich. She had everything she could ever want, except a playmate. She had been wanting someone to play with her. The maids are no fun. “Mommy, Daddy, where are you?”  She thought. She waited hours, until she saw their car driving fast. And before Sadaku could see, she found her parents' car crashing into a building. Sadaku watched people come out of their cars, to see what had happened. The road was suddenly packed with people. 

Sadaku didn't know what was happening. Then, the police came along with the ambulance, taking their bodies into a truck. “W-what happened to my mommy and daddy?” She asked in fear.

  A maid came over.“They-They crashed into a building…” She       said, wiping her eyes that were full of tears. She had to tell the truth.

Sadaku burst into tears. She collapsed on her bed. As soon as she started crying, she felt a sharp pain in her eyes.

   ~Chapter 1 Kidnapped…(2 years later)~

​

Sadaku lived her life in fear. She had unusual eyes, so of course, so everyone wanted to take her, putting her life at risk. The maids hired guards to protect the front entrance of the mansion. But one night, a maid had to leave for a trip for her family. She unlocked the gates and accidentally left them open. She drove her car and left, noticing nothing. 

After an hour, a van with unexpected guests drove in. 

“..Hey! We got in! But we have to be quiet!” The first person said with a serious face. 

“Ok! I will sneak in and grab the girl, and you stay in the lookout, ok?” The second person said with a grin. 

“Ok. Be careful, Mia.”

 “Ok! I will go, Larry.” Mia said cautiously. 

She walked in and took a good look at the mansion. 

“..Well this home has huge windows.. Geez.” She said as she walked through. And of course, the door was locked. So then she climbed on a tree that was near the window, then broke the glass with a hammer and took Sadaku, while she was still asleep.

Later she got back to the van and put the sleeping child in the back and covered her with a blanket. 

“Phew! That was a relief we didn't get caught, right Larry?” Mia said, in relief. 

“Yeah! Now, it is time for the shots and medications…” Larry said, grinning. They went into the van and headed to their lab, to do experiments with Sadaku.

​

​

​

~Chapter 2 The Escape~

​

Sadaku woke up in a white room, dressed in hospital clothes.

“W-where am I..?” She said, frightened. Then, she felt the same sort of pain in her eyes… 

She looked down at her hands. Blood! Blood was coming out like teardrops.. Her eyes were bleeding.. her eyes were in constant pain. But yet somehow, not… 

Then, she heard people talking outside the room.

“She's awake! Well we’ll have to go deal with her..” A person dressed in a lab uniform said to the other person. She began to think that she was getting used for experiments! She was so scared she screamed at the top of her lungs. Then, her eyes started to glow. She swung her head back and forth, and then she felt instant pain. Like something was coming for her. She could feel it with her eyes…She could feel it with her eyes!! 

“HEY! HER EYES!” A scientist yelled. Then they started running, trying to put more medications on her, but then, she let out an ear-splitting scream. The glass smashed, the windows broke.  She fell onto the floor, with chills in her soul. Then, scientists started rushing to her. She looked at them angrily and her light blue eye sent a constant pain to the running scientists. Their bodys were suddenly cut in half. Sadaku rushed to the nearest cart to grab a towel to wipe her eyes, but then, she felt her light yellow eye glowing. It was healing the blue eye and her! 

“W-what..?” She was confused. “I-I just killed people! ..AAHHHHR!”

Sadaku began to lose control. She shook her head back and forth, trying to stop the throbbing pain in the back of her head. Then, with almost no humanity left in her, the building collapsed, burying her in the building pieces. She fainted.

    Sadaku fainted, her eyes protecting her.

​
 

  ~Chapter 3 The Elements~

​

Sadaku woke up to an amazing summer breeze. W-where am I? Sadaku thought. A strange breeze blew past her. It carried something, a necklace. It had 4 jewels, representing the 4 elements of nature. Earth, Water, Fire, and Air. The Earth one was a clear leaf, carved out of emerald, and gave Sadaku a feeling of peace. While the 

Water one was made out of a mix of sapphire and diamond. It represented a water drop, with a glowing type of liquid punctured inside it. It seemed like a sort of healing medication water.It cleared Sadaku’s throbbing head, putting her in a calming mood  The Fire one was quite unique. It was in the shape of a flame, made out of ruby and topaz. Sadaku found a glowing warmth coming from it, and it reminded her of happiness and activity. The Air one had a cloud trapped inside it, and the jewel was in the shape of the same identical cloud shape.It seemed like it was made out of aquamarine. As soon as Saduku put her face close, it made her inhale a special type of oxygen, which made it heal her wounds. That's right. Her wounds. She didn’t even notice until she inhaled the oxygen. But for some reason, she couldn’t feel any pain. But, shouldn’t her yellow eye be doing the job as well?  Sadaku pushed away that thought and put the necklace on. As soon as she did, it made her feel…unstoppable. But Sadaku was not at all stupid. Night will soon fall, and then she’ll be exposed to the dark nights. It’s alright Saduku. Everything will be okay. Wait, was that her parents’ voice? Sadaku ran deeper and deeper into the woods, looking for a place to stay. Then suddenly, she felt like she was being lifted. A tree root was carrying her! “A-Ahh!” she gasped. “Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!” The tree root was going at top speed, faster than a car. It seemed like it was carrying her to the ocean. The ocean. The ocean. The tree root dumped her off, right on to the muddy sand. It was night now. “W-where have you taken me?” asked Sadaku. But nobody answered. Not a single soul was in sight to answer her. Just then, a roaring wave crashed on her. “AAHHhhh!..” Her voice was drowned by the cold ocean. She looked around in a panic, hoping somebody would come and rescue her. But before she could blink, the ocean lifted her up, letting her sit on the water. How strange! Sadaku thought. Just then the ocean dumped some fish onto Sadaku’s lap. “Ewwwwwww. Ocean, what is this?” “It is your food, for now.” Wait, did the ocean just respond to her? “Wait, where are you taking me?” This time it did not respond. Sadaku tried again. “Ocean, where are you taking me?” “A place for you to stay.” The Ocean only responds when you call it by its name! “Okay, Ocean, how long will it be until sunrise?” “Exactly 6 hours and 35 minutes, Sadaku.” The Ocean knew her name!  “Please rest now, Sadaku. You have a long journey ahead of you.” “Wait, what? Uh-Ocean? What do you mean?” It did not respond. Then, Sadaku eventually dozed off, and dreamed of her parents, praising her for finding the necklace. Sadaku, wake up. It is now day. That voice again! Sadaku instantly woke up. She found herself on an island, with a tiny shack. Inside, there was a fireplace covered in dust, a broken chair, and some old scrolls that kept falling off the shelves because of the strong wind. Sadaku wanted to cook the fish, and she was now very hungry. She hadn’t eaten since yesterday! Just then, the sun began to shine on the flame symbol, and then it magnified the heat, and onto some rotted wood near the shore! She now had a campfire to cook the fish! When she finished her unusual timing meal, she wanted to read the scrolls. But she couldn’t understand them. They were all written in this weird language, with symbols and letters, and pictures. It was just too confusing for Sadaku!

​

~Chapter 4 Understanding How Things Work~

​

Later that day, Sadaku just spent her time talking with Ocean, asking her silly questions like “What’s your favorite color?” or “is it just you here, or are there other people?” But no matter how many questions Sadaku asked her, Ocean would always reply with one-worded answers. Later it got boring, and Sadaku wanted to hang some of her dirty clothes, while wearing the new ones Ocean gave her, which were basically fish scales and dried plants! But even with those materials, they still looked beautiful in a sea-like way. Sadaku felt proud, wearing something different. After all, Sadaku would always love to dress up as Queens and Princesses when she was little! Oh, how her parents would laugh at her, and tease her about how grown up she is! 

It was taking a really long time for Sadaku’s clothes to dry, so she enlisted the help of the wind, who she found out, its name was breeze. Breeze helped her air out her clothes, while the ocean came to deliver more fish to Sadaku, along with some dried kelp! 

“I managed to get some rice at the faraway market, Sadaku. Now, I can teach you how to make sushi!” Sadaku loved sushi! 

“But wait, Ocean, how can you travel all the way from here to there?”

“Oh, you caught me!” said Ocean, but now with a regular girl voice. Just then, Ocean suddenly turned into a girl, with long wavy light blue hair, with shells, pearls, starfishes, and all sorts of ocean accessories in her hair! She had a silk like dress, with Pearls and snowflakes on them, and a little blue sparkly cape. Her dress had so many shades of blue and purple, and it was so utterly detailed! Why couldn’t Sadaku’s clothes be like that? Ocean gave off this dazzling and kind presence, and she looked like a glowing star. She always wore a smile on her face, which made Sadaku feel a little overwhelmed. Sadaku was speechless. 

“H-how, w-what?” She said in a shaked voice.

 “I know, I know, just relax and I’ll tell you everything!” said Ocean (Sadaku’s perspective:) Ocean explained to me that she was one of the so called, “Elemental Girls'' and that she was the water Elemental, and she was here to help and guide me to complete my “so called journey” Her abilities involve turning into water, (which I already knew) transforming into a mermaid, able to talk to sea creatures, and the ability to heal wounds from mere water. 

“Oh! I see you found that necklace! Did Breeze help you?” Ocean pointed out. 

“Oh! Um, yeah! That was when I was still in the woods.” answered Sadaku.

 “Well, that’s wonderful! Come on Breeze, you can come out now!” 

The clouds started to change a little, into this shaped-like figure. Was that…Breeze?

“Sorry, she’s super shy! I hope you don’t mind that! Breeze! It’s okay! It’s just me and Sadaku.” 

Breeze suddenly came out, with a white kimono, she had long black hair, with star jewelry clipped to it. Her kimono was mainly white, but there were clouds and stars on it, which were a sort of gold color. She gave off this angelic presence that made Sadaku feel a bit afraid. 

“Oh! Please forgive me for intruding on your conversation Sadaku!” The voice from Breeze made Sadaku feel a bit…awkward. Breeze was tall, but she gave off such a kind and girly voice that it reminded Sadaku of a tall, kind giant. Sadaku loved those stories when she was a little girl. Every night her mother would read fantasy stories just like that to her as bedtime stories, which most of which, as you could guess, made Sadaku fall asleep, often with a sucking thumb or a puddle of drool. 

“It’s all right Breeze, come sit down!” requested Ocean, “And get over here and sit with us! Sadaku’s right here!”

“Oh!” Breeze’s face lit up. “You must be The Chosen one, aren’t you?” 

“The-The Chosen one? Wha-What do you mean?” Sadaku was surprised and scared at the same time. 

“She means that you’ll be the one that will find all the other Elemental Girls, and vanish the darkness from this land,” said Ocean in a calm voice.         

     “I’m sorry, but WHAT?!” 

     “Huh?” said Ocean.

     “Oh dear! We told her too much Ocean! At such a young age as well! We planned to train her before telling her this! What do you think the other Elemental Girls will think of this?” 

“I’m sorry.” Sadaku said. “But I'm not doing that.” 

“Oh Sadaku! I am so sorry! I always say stuff like that and I never really notice it until I actually say it with my own mouth! Please forgive us!” said Breeze. Ocean gave off a gentle forlorn look that made Sadaku feel sorry for letting her down. Besides,  a few surprises wouldn’t stop her, right?

“Okay. I…agree to save the world and stop the darkness!” said Sadaku, with a quick and worried but somehow encouraging tone. 

“Yay!” Ocean jumped up and down with excitement, and Breeze did nothing but smile at Sadaku, it was a relieved smile. Sadaku couldn’t do anything then give the smile back in return.

​

 

​

 ~Chapter 5: Time to Train!~

​

(Sadaku’s perspective) Ocean and Breeze have been training me, and they’ve been teaching me stuff like how to control the water, how to breath underwater for a long amount of time, and “becoming one with the wind” and learning how to control the breeze and telling which direction it’s going through. But sometimes I still wonder what my eyes are here for, existing, and how I manage them.. But Ocean and Breeze have been great at helping me train! I still don't know where to find the other two though, but I do know that nothing’s gonna stop me until I finish what I start! After all, I am Sadaku Takahashi! 

​

​

2 Months later

“Sadaku. Today, we are going out to the forest. I know this is a little soon, but I think you’re ready to learn the elements of Earth.” said Ocean. 

“Breeze suggested it herself. Are you okay with that?”

Sadaku was tired, but she had managed to finally master water and air. Though, she never really liked moving onto new things, but she was “The Chosen one” and nothing could change that. Besides, she didn’t wanna let Ocean and Breeze down! 

“I-I accept!” Sadaku answered. 

“Wonderful!” said Ocean and Breeze in Union, while jumping up and down in excitement. 

(Sadaku’s perspective yet again) Today, Ocean and Breeze have been leading me into the woods, calling out the Earth elemental’s name, “Forest.” We were searching for her all over the place, until we heard a rustling sound high up in the trees.

“Forest!” exclaimed Breeze, “We’ve been looking for you all over the place!” 

“Sorry,” exclaimed Forest, “I was feeding the deer here. Do you want to join me?” 

Forest had Shiny Green hair, with a dotted mushroom cape, with an Elven-styled brown tunic, along with turquoise pants and shoes. She also had an autumn leaf accessory in her hair. 

Forest

“No thanks!” said Ocean, annoyed. “Anyways, this is Sadaku, and she’s going to save the world!” 

“Really?! Oh wow, that means I have to train you, don’t I?”

Ocean rolled her eyes, “clueless as always” she thought. 

“Okay! Wow, is it really you Sadaku?” 

“It is,” said Ocean, “Didn’t I tell you that already?”

“Come on Ocean, don’t always be so cold to Forest, we just found her!” said Breeze. 

“Oh, all right! But let’s hurry back. The sun’s starting to set.”

“Speaking of which,” began Forest, “Have you guys found Sunny yet?” 

That must be the Fire Elemental’s name! 

“No, apparently not. But come on, let’s hurry!” exclaimed Ocean.

The 4 ran, and Sadaku found out that Forest was overwhelmingly friendly, kind of like Ocean, but way more…Embracive. She would always talk about her dear animal friends, and what they like to eat, and what their favorite hiding spot was. 

“Okay,” said Ocean, “Tomorrow, Forest will train you, and then we’ll find Sunny. But now, let us all rest.”
“Agreed.” said Forest and Breeze, and went into the shack, ready to tuck in for the night. 

Sadaku looked at Ocean, “Hey, Ocean, aren’t you going to sleep?” 

Ocean didn’t look back at Sadaku. “No. I’d rather not. Night is when the tides are strongest. And that is the time when I shall train. Us Elemental Girls, always have to be on the lookout, no matter what. And make it up, for her.” 

Wait, who was, her?

​


 

~Chapter 6 Bonds~

  It was at the crack of dawn when Breeze woke Sadaku up. She was awfully embarrassed by putting her in a cranky mood, but she was doing what was best for the team. 

“Please, wake up Sadaku. I am so truly sorry for the disturbance! But it’s okay! I made you breakfast.”

Sadaku gave out a tiring yawn. “Where’s Ocean?” she asked. 

“Oh!” said Breeze. “Oh um, Ocean? She woke up extra early to go to the market. Don’t worry, she usually does this. Her favorite food is seashell salmon with oyster spices, and she wants to get them early, when they're not sold out.” 

“Oh.” said Sadaku. Then she looked around. “Where’s Forest?” 

“Oh Forest? She always wakes up early to feed the rabbits and deer.” she paused. “Sorry for any sudden surprises. Hehe, hea!” *embarrassed because she has no actual tasks other than training Sadaku*

“No it’s alright.” said Sadaku. 

“So….”

“So…?”

“Um! We-we should start training!” Began Breeze.

“Okay” replied Sadaku

Sadaku’s perspective: So that morning, me and Breeze began to train. She kept on muttering about when Sunny was going to come, and when Forest and Ocean were going to come back.

“Hey, Breeze, can I ask you something?” said Sadaku

“Of course! Whatever you need.”

“Why is Ocean always so cold to Forest?”

There was a slight pause. Breeze’s expression changed

“You see, Forest had a very bad side..”

“What happened?”     Sadaku asked.

“The fire elemental, Sunny, was friends with Ocean. And when Sunny and Ocean were children, they met Forest’s big sister, who went by the name Zosia. And their friendship didn’t turn out well, and in the end they broke into battle and Zosia ran away. Well, before that, Zosia and Forest would bully Ocean.. ”

“What?! Why?!”

“Well, since Ocean had water powers, and Forest needed someone to water her plants, everyday Zosia and Forest would bully Ocean for water. The bullying was mostly Zosia, and Forest just thought it was the right thing to do so she went along with it. But then later she realized what she was doing and apologized to Ocean, but Ocean didn’t take it so sincerely, so she’s been trying to fix everything by being nice to her.” Breeze paused. “Zosia would also bully Sunny and shout at her because her sun kept on burning and dying her plants even though it did mostly good by giving the plants enough vitamins from them, but Ocean would always try to defend Sunny, while Sunny tried to defend Ocean as well. It works both ways. Well, then… something changed. Zosia was cursed one day, not knowing what had happened, and grew even stronger. She wanted power… So then, she learned how to create… monsters…and… that's how it all started… and we need you to track her down and finally defeat her.” Breeze ended with a sigh. 

“...Could you tell me why Sunny and Ocean have such a strong bond…?”

“Well, their “strong bond” was referred to “Blazing history.” The Water and the Fire grew pretty close after their war, and made peace. And once Ocean and Sunny were born, they grew inseparable.”

“Woah…” Sadaku said, very surprised.

“Well, was the battle really that bad?” Sadaku asked.

“Of course it was! Do you have any idea what an earth  elemental could do when it goes haywire?”

Sadaku pictured an image of the earth being corrupt.

“But it’s not as bad compared to a water or fire elemental.”

“Oh.” 

“So…what element am I?” asked Sadaku

“Oh you? You’re the-”

Suddenly a beam of light fell down. It was so bright, and it felt like fire against the cool water. 

“Hi everybody!” exclaimed a girl in red, orange, and yellow hues. 

“Oh my!” exclaimed Breeze. “Sunny! You have come!”

      Sunny smiled, “Yes,” she looked around. “Where’s Ocean?”

      “She’s at the market.” said Sadaku.

       Sunny gasped. “Wait, Breeze you-”

       “Yes Sunny, Sadaku is here.” 

*Sadaku and Breeze Training

*Her eyes change

​

 ~Chapter 7: Journey~ 

​

An hour passed, and Ocean finally came back to the shack. “Well, I'm back guys!! And-...” Ocean dropped her groceries. “S-sunny? Sunny!” Ocean hugged her. “Ocean!!!! I missed you!” Sunny said.

“Wow they are really close!” Sadaku said. 

“Yup!” said Breeze. “They do almost everything together!”

Sadaku watched intently as the two girls chatted. Back in Tokyo she never had any friends, she was just always locked up in her empty mansion. Sadaku shook her head. Now is not the time to be thinking about that! Now is the time to look forward and face new challenges

“Now that we’re all here,” Began Ocean, “We can get a move on and head towards the next village.”

“Wait, but what about Forest?” asked Breeze.

“Forest can find her own way!” said Ocean.

“Yeah!” Sunny added on.

“Come on guys, we're a team! No one gets left behind!” said Breeze

“Fine!” Ocean crossed her arms in dismay and looked away. 

“But she better come quickly! It’s almost late noon.”

“Alright then!” said Breeze. “I promise I’ll find her before Sunset!”

“Sunset isn’t enough time to get to the next village, Breeze! And we can’t use our powers open handedly because we might be taken into custody!” 

“I’ll come along with her!” exclaimed Sadaku. “If it means the search will be quicker, I’ll go!”

“Alright then,” said Ocean. “While you two are searching, me and Sunny will start getting ready, and then I’ll call my dolphins to escort us to the next destination.”

“Okay then!” said Sadaku. “We’ll promise to make it back in time!” 

​

​

~Chapter 8: The Sense of Fire~

​

(After they found Forest) Sadaku and Forest went down to the river, and followed its narrow path to see if it led to a town or perhaps a village.

“Ugh, Sadaku! Can you like, walk faster- oh, i'm so sorry.. I don’t know what has gotten into me..” 

“Aw, it's ok Forest!” Sadaku replied with a big warm smile. 

They sped up and ran down, and Forest sensed something. 

“Hey Sadaku, I smell some charcoal! There must be a village there! W-wait.. that's not charcoal…” Forest stopped,  like she was sensing something wrong. 

“It’s ok, maybe it's just somebody making a fire to… roast some fish!” Sadaku replied, trying not to make Forest worry even more. (With Ocean, Breeze, and Sunny) “Ok guys! Let's go down this path! It looks like a trail that leads to a village!” Sunny started. 

“Great idea, Sun!” Ocean complemented. 

“Wait, guys, where is Forest and Sadaku?” said Breeze, starting to panic.

“Ugh!” Ocean turned to look at Breeze and put her arms on her hips. “She’s an earth elemental! But you’re saying that she can’t even handle keeping on a track in the middle of a forest?! What is she doing? Getting distracted with all the oh let me guess, “the cute rabbits and deer”?! Trusting her on the LAST-” Ocean stopped and shook her head. “There might be people here but I can’t trust her!” Ocean yelled. 

She paused and winced while shaking her head. She didn’t want anything to do with Forest. Why? Why was she the chosen earth elemental? Ocean dropped that thought as well and continued on.“Wait, I feel like there is some fire in the direction we are going in.. I can clear it, and there might be people there we need to rescue.

Come on!”

*Forest changed

Ocean and Sunny ran while Breeze sent a strong current to make them run faster. 

“The smell is getting stronger!” Sunny sensed. 

“Ocean, please, run quickly and clear it out, I can see what's going on, but that fire wasn’t started by some small campfire! 

Ocean ran and saw the flames spreading toward every inch of the village houses.

“It looks like this village is set on fire!” She yelled back. She ran, clearing her path with ice. 

Forest and Sadaku were walking cautiously, but fast, since it was ending the crack of dawn. 

“Wait, I sense more fire!” Forest cried. 

She started to walk faster. Sadaku followed behind.

 “Wait, I see.. A village! But it smells like smoke!!!! …Is that Ocean? I need to help!” Sadaku said in a hurry. Forest sat there, Unbothered. 

​

​

 ~Chapter 9: A Fiery Attack~ 

​

Sadaku rushed to help Ocean fight the fire. 

“I can't use my eyes to kill the fire! I'm so sorry I can't help!” Sadaku cried. 

“No, i-its o-ok! I can d-do this! W-well i c-can't talk w-when i-im f-fighting..” Ocean said, wincing.

 Sadaku nodded. Maybe there was a person who accidentally set a fire? But I'm going to the village to see if I can help.

“Wait! Sadaku! Me and Breeze are coming with you!” Sunny yelled. 

Sadaku nodded, with Sunny and Breeze following behind towards the village. Fighting the fire was just a piece of cake for Ocean. Especially ‘cause fire can't control itself. 

When the three got to the village, darkness spread all over the place. Sadaku ran to the injured villagers and magically healed them with her right eye. 

...WHAT? Sadaku thought. Wait..so if my left eye cuts anything open, and my right eye heals things.. Wait! I could use this! 

“There's a monster attacking this village!” Breeze yelled. She lifted the monster up from the ground. 

“WHO ARE YOU AND WHY ARE YOU ATTACKING THIS POOR VILLAGE?!” Breeze yelled.

“Hahaha.. You don’t know who I am, Breeze?” The monster

laughed. 

“Wait…you’re…aren't you.. one of HER SUPPORTERS?” Breeze said, struggling to keep the monster up.

“Ha ha ha! Of course!” laughed the monster. “NOW PUT ME DOWN-”

All of a  sudden Sunny sent the monster burning up in flames. 

“ARGHHH!” The monster growled with pain.

Just then Ocean came and put the fire out and it started to rain. The monster’s skin was left red with burns. Then Ocean suddenly plunged forward and was able to grab a map tied to his belt. 

“I got it!” she yelled.

“Slay Moon!” (Ocean’s nickname) said Sunny.

“Thanks Sun!” Ocean yelled back.

Just then Breeze dropped the monster and it crumpled into ashes, fading away. 

Ocean gave the map to Sunny and She opened it.

“Hmmm…” Sunny paused. “It looks like there are roads, and points leading to a.. Dark Castle.. It must be where Victoria is..” 

Everyone froze. “V-victoria..?” Sadaku asked.

“..We need to follow these points, which leads to.. Demons..and we need to kill them, leading to her..” Ocean said. 

“W-what? How is Forest’s sister evil?” Sadaku asked. “Well, after she ran, she performed.. An unknown magic, called..-” Breeze stopped and heard someone come over.

                                Forest came over. 

“Oh hey guys! How’s everything been? Whoa this village is a mess guys! You guys should get a move on!”

Ocean got so paranoid that she ran up to Forest and grabbed her by the shirt. 

“Forest! What is going on inside your head?? First you don’t even come along to help, and then you just expect us to clean this village all by ourselves while you just stand there playing with the squirrels?? Forest I can’t believe you!! You’re just like Victoria!”

“Yeah!” Sunny added on. “We’re supposed to be a team, but I guess you’re that one kid that doesn’t pitch in but gets the same grade as everybody else!”

Breeze just stood there, hoping that it would just get over with. 

Just then Sadaku came in, carrying sandbags and food from the villagers. She was panting and was so tired. 

“Sadaku!” Ocean clung on to Forest but looked at Sadaku. 

“Here.” replied Sadaku. “I tried to gather up as much as I could. I hope this helps. The sandbags are to help you put out the remnants of the fire. I'm sorry I couldn’t do anything more.” Sadaku kneeled down and put her hands on her lap. 

“Oh Sadaku.” Ocean started. She let go of Forest’s shirt, and hugged Sadaku. 

“I need some kind of revenge…” thought Forest. 

“Ok guys! Let's eat!” Sadaku said. “I’m so ready for the next adventure!” 

But they didn’t know that…Someone was watching…

~Chapter: 10 Someone’s Watching~

It was midnight, and the trees swayed, and everything started to move.

“Oh my! I see a feast indeed!” said a voice that came from a little girl. “This is my lucky day! I can’t wait to tell RUICHI THIS!” Then she tip-toed to the sleeping group.

“They look..so..uhh..-let's dig in!” She said, happily.                                           

 ~In Sadaku’s dream~

 Sadaku woke up in a white room. 

“S-Sadaku? Dear!” said a female voice.

“W-what? Wait…MOM?” Sadaku opened her eyes.

“Yes dear! Father is here too!” Sadaku’s mom answered.

“Hey, hun!” Sadaku’s dad said. Sadaku was surprised. There was a statue a few feet away from her. She looked at it. Nothing happened. 

“Oh, dear! You don't have you’re hideous eyes anymore!” Her mother said. 

“Now, if you come with us, we can set you free!” said her Father.

“What? N-no! Dad! And set me free?” Sadaku yelled. “I’m sorry but no…” She closed her eyes. “I need to get back to Sunny, Ocean, Breeze, and Forest!” 

“NO, YOU ARE COMING WITH US!” Sadaku’s parents yelled. 

“NO! ITS JUST A DREAM! A STUPID DREAM-” Sadaku pushed back. She blacked out.

Sadaku woke up. 

“W-what is h-happening?” She saw a monster!

“GUYS-” The monster scratched her. “OUCH!” Sunny and Ocean woke up. Soon, Breeze did, too. 

“Wait, what's happ-” Sunny asked. The monster scratched her. Sunny, Ocean, Breeze, and Sadaku got up, and Breeze carried Forest high up in a tree.

“What did you just do?” Ocean asked the demon, getting serious. 

“Well, I scratched her. Got a problem, blue wretch-” The monster stopped. 

Ocean came in with a water blast that nearly drowned her. Then, Sunny put her up in flames. Breeze then threw her up and down.

“B-brother!!!!!! RUICH-EEEE!!!!” The demon girl screamed, fading away.  

A teenage boy appeared. “Yui!! I’ll tell the rest of our family that we have a fe-”

  Ruichi stopped. He stood there, and then, he suddenly screamed aloud. “AHHHHH!!! YOU RETCH! YOU KILLED MY SISTER! MY BELOVED YOUNGER SISTER (Pant, pant) ARGHHHHH!!” He suddenly plunged forward and started to attack Sadaku and everybody else. He unleashed his hands, and spiders came out. It started tying them down with strong threads. 

        “Guys, douge the spiders! While I head for the monster!” Sadaku said.

Her gaze set upon the demon. She tried really hard to focus on him, especially with her left eye. He started to tear apart. 

“Yes Sadaku! Keep going!” Sunny yelled. She used flames to roast the spiders, while Ocean used a simple water technique, and drowned the spiders to their deaths. Ruichi grew numb. He used his last piece of strength to make a huge spider web! It managed to cut everyone except Sadaku. She focused her left eye to cut the web, then she used it again and left some deep wounds on the boy. 

(The monsters can regenerate, so they take some time to regrow their arms, head, or any part of their body if anyone cuts through it.)

Ruichi was shocked how she used her eye to destroy his web and him. 

“Hmm. It doesn’t matter anyways if she hurts me or not.” That demon boy thought in mid-motion. “Demons can regenerate anyways!” 

“Hey, Little girl, why don’t you join me and Master Victoria? You look really strong!”

“Uhh thank you for the compliment, but i would never join monsters.” Sadaku said. Then, she sliced his whole body into pieces, with a motion of her left hand with her left eye glowing.  Then, Sunny burned the boy.

“That should do it,” Said Sunny, replying with a grin. 

“Well, let's check the map for where we’re heading next.”

Sid Sadaku while putting her hair in a ponytail. 

“Let's go!”

​

​

~Chapter 11: The Water Tree~

​

The five headed to the next point.

“Hey, shouldn’t we find a  resting place?” Sunny asked. She paused. “Oh yeah! Wait! We left Forest!” she said in fake concern.

So they went back to the place that they were resting, and found her sleeping in a tree. She woke up. 

“Oh hey guys! What did I miss-” Ocean slapped her and almost did a water blast on her. Just then, Breeze held her down with her sir force.

“Hey! What was that for?” Forest yelled.

“YOU DIDN'T BOTHER TO WAKE UP AND FIGHT WITH US WHEN THERE WAS A MONSTER? YOU SELFISH-” Ocean paused while shaking her head and calmed down. 

“Well Forest, why didn’t you bother to fight? That’s not helping anyone to get you YOUR SISTER!” Sunny yelled. She pushed Forest away but this time Forest made a weak shield and almost pricked Sunny, but then Ocean destroyed the shield with her ice breaking technique and wet Forest. Then, Sunny got really mad at Forest and used her fire flame blast to slap her, and blood came out of her mouth. 

Sadaku couldn’t take it anymore.“Guys, let's not fight! Like Sunny wanted, let's find a place to rest for the night! Soon the sun’s going to rise!”

“Yeah, Sadaku is right, guys! We should rest for tomorrow!” Breeze said. 

“Fine!” said Ocean.

“*Scoff* Alright.” said Sunny.

Sadaku felt a great pang of sorrow in her. What if the group tears apart? Who will help her with her “quest?” 

“Uh, Breeze, may you check where the next point is?” Sadaku asked. 

“Uh sure! Sadaku.” said Breeze. “Hey Sunny, can I borrow the map for a second?”

“Oh yeah, sure,” said Sunny. She was with Ocean, packing up.

“Thank you. Looks like The Water Tree!” said Breeze, nervous if Sunny and Ocean would hate her because she didn’t confront Forest. 

“Ok! Let's go!” Sadaku said.

Speaking of Forest…

She was in a little corner all by herself at the foot of a tree. A bird pooped on her. 

“URGH!! I hate being an elemental cadet! Why was I the chosen earth elemental?This is so annoying!” She walked over to Ocean. Ocean was busy practicing with Breeze. 

“Ugh! I hate her so much!” said Ocean, who was practicing her water blasts.

“Oh come on Ocean! Forest is really not that bad.” exclaimed Breeze.

“Not that bad? Not that BAD?? She is absolutely USELESS. I can’t even believe that she was the chosen earth elemental! It's absolutely rubbish! It’s absolutely ridicul-

“Hey…Ocean?” Forest asked.

“WHAT? WE ARE HEADING TO THE WATER TREE! I HAVE NO TIME TO TALK WITH SOMEONE LIKE YOU!” Ocean yelled. “Let's go!”  

“But we’re practicing!” said Breeze.

“SO?? I DON’T CARE! COME ON! WE’RE WASTING PRECIOUS TIME!!” said Ocean in a confronting tone.

“..Ok..” Said Breeze.

                                  -At The Water Tree-

When they got to the water tree, Forest dragged Ocean. 

“Ocean! I need to talk to you!” said Forest.

“Oh no… this isn’t going to turn out well… I need to follow them!” said Breeze

“Ugh!!!! Fine! But make it quick!” Ocean snapped. So she took Ocean by hand to a private place. Then she made sharp thorns, and then pricked Ocean. 

“HEY! THAT HU-” Ocean groaned and then fainted. 

“Haha! That should tell you to not yell at me.” Forest whispered. Then, Forest ran away. 

“Oh my god… Ocean! Help! Help!” Breeze yelled.

Forest ran to the tree, where Sadaku and Sunny were. 

“GUYS! OCEAN FAINTED WHEN WE WERE TALKING!” Forest yelled, trying to be innocent. 

“WHAT?!?” Sunny yelled.

 “Let me see! I think I can heal her!” Sadaku said while getting up. Just as she was about to run towards Ocean, Forest stopped her and pushed her away. 

“Hey! What are you doing For-” 

but then Sunny suddenly pushed Forest back. 

“Argh! Stop always being so mean to me Sunny!!” said Forest.

“Um, then why did you just push Sadaku back when she was running towards Ocean to heal her??” said Sunny.

“That was just. an . accident.” said Forest, tightening up.

“Ugh. Like we’d ever believe you.” Sunny looked away. “Disgusting Fur ball.” 

“I heard that you idiot!” Forest was just about to plunge forward to scratch Sunny with her sharp claws. The thing is, being an Earth Elemental gives you the ability to hear as good as an American barn owl, and it also gives you the ability to have sharp claws as a wolf. 

Just then a blast of water ran through the two of them (Sunny and Forest). Turns out, it was Ocean!

“Ocean!” exclaimed Sunny.

“Sunny!” exclaimed Ocean.

“Are you alright?” she asked.

“I am, but I think Forest knocked me unconscious.” said Ocean, looking at Forest with a glare.  

“Forest! So you lied!”

Forest was embarrassed. She just stood there. She said nothing. 

“This is the perfect time to..Confront Forest! To prove that I'm with Sunny and Ocean!” Breeze thought. 

“Hey Forest. I knew that you dragged Ocean to a private place and left her unconscious. I know! And I was following you!” Breeze yelled. Forest felt so humiliated.

Forest just sat down. “SITTING DOWN IS ALL YOU CAN DO?!? YOU RAT!” Ocean yelled at her. Forest looked scared and hurt. 

“Hey guys, we shouldn’t be that me-” Breeze said. 

“OH SO WHEN YOU  HURT SOMEONE IT'S NOT A BIG DEAL? C’MON SUNNY, SADAKU. WE’RE LEAVING.” Ocean yelled again. Ocean leaned to use her hand  to suffocate Forest’s neck, but Breeze held her down.

“...Our group.. It's breaking up once again..” thought Sadaku. 

“I just wish Forest never would've injected that poison into Ocean. Now, she’s just sad. Everyone’s sad.  

Ocean crossed her arms. “Come on. Let’s go. To the Fire Tree. And from now on, I know that I cannot trust Forest.”

Then, Forest pushed Ocean, but she didn’t fall, and she held her palm on the water tree. Then she started to change. 

“Woah! That's your middle form? It's so cool!” Sunny exclaimed. 

“Thank you, Sun!” Ocean said, joyfully twirling around in her new middle form.

“Oh yeah! I forgot to tell you Sadaku, when each Elemental Girl touches the tree, they grow into their middle form! And there is also a final form, when the Elemental Girls reach their power limit, they start to change into their final form! Also, the middle forms make you stronger! And when you reach the final form, you get a mark on your face, to determine that you are very strong!” Ocean replied, happily. 

“Oh! That's great!” Sadaku said. Good! Now Ocean is in a good mood, so we can go to the fire tree! Sadaku thought.
