The known characters in the Magic School Colosseum are on the field while the rest, Brandy and her kids, are in the stands.

"Mommy, how come we can't do magic?" Labreezy asks.

"I'm not sure, dear. But maybe we will find out soon," said Brandy.

"I'm concerned about learning Elementals. Remember what those Fire Elementals did to us in our last lesson," said Bruce.

"Well, they liked us too much. Who wouldn't like Brozone?" said John Dory.

"Right," his brothers agreed.

"By the way, how did you know about Elementals, Floyd?" Clay asks.

"That's secret," Floyd smirked.

"Sus..."

"Don't worry. When the time comes, I'll tell you all."

"The time comes?" Viva curious.

"Speaking of time coming, class should be starting soon," said Poppy, looking at her hug time bracelet.

"You know how Grandpa is. He likes to make a grand entrance," said Branch.

A giant hand from the sky with its fist balled up appeared.

"What the?!" Branch's Brothers and Viva shouted.

"It's alright. It's just the God of Magic, Miracaldo," said Peppy.

When the hand opens, Elder Leaf emerges with lanterns filled with shimmering, colorful, yet transparent floating balls, which are the Elementals.

"Thanks for the lift, Miracaldo," said Elder Leaf.

"No problem, Leafy," he answered before his hand disappeared.

"Alright, everybody. The class is now in session. I'm sure you remember the last lesson, which involved something that we'll experience today."

"Does it have something to do with Fire Elementals?" Riff raised his hands.

"Close, Riff. We are going to discuss every Elemental known to every species."

Elder Leaf places five lanterns on his desk, in red, blue, green, yellow, and white, to represent the elementals.

"As you see what I have placed here, there are five kinds of Elementals," Elder Leaf continued while writing on the chalkboard. "Last class, you can tell the red Elementals are the Fire Type. Fire, dynamic and transformative, symbolizes energy, willpower, and passion. In witchcraft, it represents change, creativity, and the power to achieve one's desires. Beings that are associated with them are salamanders, phoenixes, dijinns, and ifrits."

"Oh, yeah. Those salamanders are so cute," said Barb.

"I prefer the phoenix because they can fly no matter how much they're in flames," said Val.

"But what are dijinns?" Demo curious.

"My people and I can answer that," King Rajan continued. "They are known as genies that grant any wish three times, except they don't live in lamps."

"As for Ifrits, they're more powerful and often malevolent types of djinns," said Queen Ishani.

"There's a story associated with dijinns. I can read it to the Trollings in their next storytime," said Princess Shanti.

"Dijinns sounds dangerous to me," said Chaz.

"Of course they are. They are known to be notoriously tricky. They always grant what you wish for, but they always end up biting you in the butt—some required lives to be sacrificed for the wish to be granted. Why else do you think we don't have genies anymore?"
