"When a child of this earth, born after the disaster,turns of age, their element shall be shown, at that year all who are of age shall be taken to the mirror. The mirror will show you four options of your future ,those being; Warrior, Citizen, Mage or warrior mage, it will tell you how dangerous each path will be for you and what you will look like as each of those things."
I yawned, we had all heard this speech before, year after year so ,by the time it came to our showing of the mirror, we were all mouthing along to the chancellors drone.
At the age of eleven we were considered old enough to gather in the dusty old town hall and be shown our futures and choose our path, you see at the age of seven we had all had a full year of getting used to our Zodiac 'powers'. I Elizabeth (I hate that name) Brown am quite proud of my controlling capabilities of the elements and have perfected self duplication to such an extent that I can have cloned that mimic all of my different moods of emotions.
Frankly if I could I would have sent a clone of me to this stupid thing, but sadly it is a Zodiac field block out zone, (basically we can't use our powers) I mean even my twin brother Thomas is bored, He is never BORED with that stupid mishap of an element he is showing off his "I'm a gemini who can only control fire and multiply myself trick"
"And now to the mirror" the chancellor says, this catches everyones attention, and we all sit bolt upright, making us look like a bunch of terrified meerkats as we rise from our seats in unison and start walking down the moth ridden golden-red corridor to a silver wood door with a golden knocker, what lies inside will show us our true selves and our future that is yet to be decided.
