The Realm Protectors

Chapter 10 - Enya

The second week of school somehow always seems to take forever. So of course when I need the extra time to plan the RAS presentation, it seems to pass in the blink of an eye.

I've spent the week watching videos of past RAS presentations from multiple different schools, all of them filled with incredible displays of power and abilities. Asavanra's presentation is typically pretty good, but I really want to make it great this year. After I made a rough outline of what I wanted it to be like and showed it to the others, Nile and I got to visit all of the fourth sect Physical Kinesis classes to pick the best elementals to help us with the presentation.

Now Nile and I are on our way to Aveyard Facility to practice with us eight before the others come later tonight. Nile holds the door open for me and I give him a kiss on the cheek as I walk inside. The doors to one of the gymnasiums are open, revealing Professor Grantwood and Ciana. Ciana waves at me and I smile and wave back. She's always so giddy. Someday she'll be my Right Arch.

Ugh, I don't like thinking about the future.

"Are you ready for your first practice, Enya?" Grantwood asks me. "I hope you've planned something really spectacular."

"I think it'll be great." I reply. "I've spent all week planning and scouting. I think a week will get us prepared for the showcase."

"Perfect," Grantwood nods. "Well, I'll get out of your hair. You guys pretty much have Aveyard to yourselves for the rest of the evening."

"Thank you, Professor." Professor Grantwood walks out with a wave. I turn to see Nile chatting with Faris, Carter, and Ciana. Lyra, Avani, and Nikolina walk in behind me. "Perfect, we're all here."

"What's the plan, oh mighty leader?" Avani asks with a smirk.

"I have a rough plan of what I want to happen, and I just wanted to get all of you caught up on it before the other fourth sects get here in about an hour." I say. "I think five of each element will be just fine, so we'll have forty people total. That should fill the auditorium nicely, especially since Nile and I handpicked the best fourth sects we had.

"Our goal is to fill the auditorium. That's where it will be," I explain to the three first sects. "The best showcase presentations always make use of the whole auditorium, so we need to fill the space very well. We'll start with a bang. Ciana and Nikolina, you and your elementals will make me and the fire elementals invisible. We'll walk in a circle into the middle of the auditorium and set off a huge firebomb."

"Got it," Nikolina responds softly, looking at the packet. Ciana gulps but nods.

"The other elementals can help you figure out how to do it for tonight," I assure her. "Then you can ask your Kinesis professors about it this week."

"Okay,"

"After the firebomb, we'll become visible again." I go on. "We'll do some fancy choreography, this and that. Eventually we'll make a ring of fire above our heads. That's when Faris and the air elementals will walk in, turning it into a fire tornado. They'll take over from there, doing choreo. Clouds will form above the stadium and Nile will bring in the water elementals, and they'll make it rain. More choreography, and then Ciana and the Light elementals will appear, making rainbows out of the droplets of water. Choreo, choreo, is everyone following me?"

Nods around the circle as pages are turning. Good.

"Great, next Avani and the earth elementals will do some cool growy things, and then Carter and Lyra will come in with the time and space elementals. They have their choreography that they do with stars and suns and black holes and stuff. Is that plausible for you guys to do, Carter?"
