Tulisa POV:

Before I could process what I'd just walked in on, all of the girls dropped. I ran to the first body on the floor and was relieved to find that Perrie's pulse was steady and strong.

I moved on to Jade, but when I went to touch her, a small jolt of electricity hit me. Not wanting to be shocked again, I watched Jade's chest closely and saw that she was breathing normally too.

Moving onto Leigh, I hesitantly found her pulse. Luckily, nothing happened and her pulse was strong and steady as well.

As I touched Jesy, I immediately pulled back at the feeling of her scorching skin.

I don't know what's happening to the girls, but I know it's nothing good.

Jade POV:

I sat up with a pounding head. I opened my eyes, expecting to be in Tulisa's living room surrounded by the other girls, but to my surprise, I'm somehow in the sky.

I look down and realize I'm sitting on a cloud. Everything feels so light and flowy. There's even a slight breeze blowing that calms me.

I should feel scared about my current situation, but I can't help but feel a sense of familiarity.

"Welcome, Jade."

At the sound of the unknown voice, I turn around and come face to face with a woman I've never seen before.

"Who are you?"

"My name is Aria. I was the first to harness the power of the skies."

"With this ring?" I ask while looking down at the new ring on my finger.

"Yes. It gives you the ability to control the sky and all that comes with it."

"But why me?"

"Because you have been found worthy. Despite losing everything, you stayed true to yourself and didn't let the pain consume you. Now it's up to you and your friends to stop what's coming."

"What do you mean? What's coming?"

"Danger."

Leigh POV:

I shoot up with a deep breath and look around. I'm sitting in the middle of a field of flowers. As I'm taking in the beautiful scenery around me, I feel something nudge my arm.

Looking to my left, there's a small fox next to me. I hesitantly reach my hand towards him, and he sniffs it before giving it a little lick.

"He likes you."

I lifted my eyes and met the brown eyes of a woman who was smiling down at me and the fox.

"Who are you and where am I?"

"My name is Gaia. This is the land of my people. The land that gave me its power. The same land whose power you now hold."

"Power? What power?" I asked, standing up and moving closer.

"The power from your ring. I was the first to embrace its power, and now it's bonded to you. It gives you the ability to communicate with the land and the life the inhabits it."

"Me? But I'm no one special."

"That's where you're wrong. You're strong. When life didn't go your way, you decided to set out and find a better future for yourself. And you'll need that strength for what's coming."

"What's coming?"

"Something dangerous."
