I woke up and saw that I was in a bed.

"Where am I?" I questioned.

"You are in my secret lair. I have never seen such a weak prime special," A person muttered.

I stood up and started to speak. "How dare you- OUCH!" I slumped back into the bed. It felt like my spine was broken into pieces.

"Who are you?" I whispered weakly. I wasn't feeling so good. The person called an attendant and she handed him a piece of paper. He tossed the piece of paper at me. I picked it up and started to read through it.

Dear Claire,

I am the high mentor. You are safe, don't worry. If you aren't sure and don't trust me yet, then you may leave. Though I suggest you stay. You're in a very bad condition. The gang monsters hurt you a lot.

The monsters left a note on top of you after you fainted. I'm sorry to say, all of your friends are held captive. These monsters are very powerful. You must train hard, and we must find the other specials. I have no clue where these monsters came from, which scares me.

So, since you're not fully trained yet, I quickly brought you here so that you won't get hurt. Don't worry, right now we are trying our best to find and rescue your friends. I can understand what you're going through, so if you want some time alone, I get it.

From,
High Mentor (Taton)

Well... That's a lot to go through. I thought about it. Should I leave? No, if I leave then I won't be safe. Though if I stay, then there's a slight chance that this person isn't actually a mentor, and will kill me.

"Fine. I'll stay. Although you better train me quick because I want to find Nick, Mr. Snooks, and Ms. Bee," I decided. He  nodded and smiled. I guess he's glad I'm staying. That could mean either good or bad.

"It will take a few more hours for you to heal, so I suggest you get some sleep," Taton said.

"No way. I'm not going to waste any time," I replied. The high mentor sighed. He offered his hand and I groaned as he pulled me up. Shots of pain ran up and down my spine but I bit my lip to stop myself from screaming. I got off the bed, and Taton led me outside of the secret lair.

My mouth was amazed by the sight as a whole meadow stood before me. There were no flowers, although. A few trees were here and there.

"Ok. Let's start! So, first, I want you to imagine a flower growing in front of you," Taton instructed. I did as he told me. That was simple. A tiny little rose grew out of the ground.

He then told me to grow a specific flower, a pink tulip. I tried hard and a rose appeared again. I kept trying and trying until the whole meadow was fill up with roses.

I asked Taton why it won't work. "You were able to use your powers during desperate times. So you were really focused. I want you to pretend that a huge monster is about to attack you. Now try." I tried five times more until I finally got it. A nice pink tulip sprouted. My forehead was covered with sweat. This looks easy, but it's super hard.

Taton told me to have vines come from my hands and wrap them around the tree and make the tree fall. The vines grew out of my hands out but I couldn't make it long enough to reach the tree.

The high mentor started to poke me continuously. It was annoying but I ignored it and kept trying for the vines. One time, he poked me so hard that I turned to Taton and he started to run away from me. I shoot out vines from my hands and the vines wrapped around Taton's body. I pulled him towards me and looked straight into his eyes. He grinned. Huh? "Why are you grin- Oh," I realized. The vines had worked.

"Good job. Now I think it's enough nature practice for today. Let's move onto fire," Taton commented. Taton walked over to the other side of the forest and I followed.

There were many targets set up, and lots of trees in a straight line. The high mentor took out a piece of paper and told me to burn it. I held it in my hands and it crippled into ash.

"Burn the tree down." Taton ordered. I shoot a fireball at the tree. Only a bit of the bark came off. Then, I walked up to the tree. I put my hand against and imagined it burning down. I punched my hand against the tree using the sky to push it down. Nothing happened.

Taton came over and tried to calm me down. I wasn't getting anything! I was never going to become trained and go to get my friends!

I got so frustrated that I pushed my hand against the tree. A loud boom echoed through the meadow and I looked over to see the tree was on the ground.

"Well... I didn't want this section to be the sky section but that's good." High mentor said. I laughed. Well, at least something good is happening. I looked at the targets. I was fired up. Get it? It's not an expression anymore!

Anyways, I aimed my hand at the targets and hit a fire ball bullseye for all of them. I was getting so excited I accidentally threw a fireball that almost barely missed Taton's face. He made an irritated face as I looked to see the top of his hair was singed.

Next, Taton lead me to the water station. "Drown the dummies," He ordered. I did it swiftly. The high mentor took a pen out and told me to get it out of his hands using water. I already had the pen in seconds. Taton nodded his head. "Oh yeah! I mean... Very well," High mentor shouted. Guess Taton is a bit mood changing person.

He then took me to the sky section. There was a wide open area with a bunch of dummies spread around.

"Now, just push the dummies back with the wind." Taton commanded. I breathed through my mouth and out came a bunch of air. The dummies got pulled back instantly.

Next, he told me to levitate myself. I did as he told and breath on the floor. It took a lot of lung power to levitate my whole body, but I did it. Taton was amazed at how I handled the sky element.

"Nice job! For today, you're done with your training. From my observations, you need practice on nature and a little bit of fire. When you're good with those, I'll let you go into the real world- filled with monsters that are out to hurt you," Taton summarized. I nodded in response.

He showed me my bed and I went fast asleep.
