chapter 5

After an animated discussion about the Demon King during our lunch break, we eagerly made our way to our next class, the element class. I was filled with anticipation, as I was looking forward to discovering which element I had an affinity for. As we entered the classroom, my two friends followed me to the back where we spotted vacant seats. Taking our places, we settled in as the teacher took her position at the front of the class and proceeded to introduce herself.

""Good day, students. I am Mrs. Susan, and I am thrilled to be your new instructor for elemental studies. Before we delve into our lessons, I have an intriguing demonstration in store for us. Athena, if you could kindly step forward and place your hand on this fascinating orb, we'll discover your elemental affinity."

As Mrs. Susan's words echoed through the classroom, Athena rose from her seat with a mix of curiosity and excitement. Making her way to the front, she extended her hand and gently laid it upon the iridescent surface of the orb. A momentary hush fell over the room as everyone watched with bated breath. Suddenly, a brilliant luminosity enveloped the orb, followed by the mesmerizing manifestation of water. It became apparent to everyone that Athena possessed the remarkable ability to wield and manipulate water." Well done Athena Mrs. Susan informed you now manipulate water you may go back to your seat, with that said Athena went back to her seat to friends, 

I was in complete shock when I discovered that I could actually control water. The look on Kyra's face mirrored my own excitement. "I'm so happy for you," she responded enthusiastically. "Now you can get your official uniform in your favorite color, which is blue." Overwhelmed with joy, I replied, "I know, I was so happy."Settle down, students. It's time to begin our lesson. Please take out your books as we delve into the fundamentals of the subject and explore the fascinating origins of the elements.

After our last class for the day, we all made our way back to our respective rooms. Kyra was taking a nice, long shower in the bathroom, Emily was hunched over her desk, completely absorbed in her drawing, and I was sitting on my bed, engrossed in reading about my elemental powers. I wanted to make sure I was well-informed and didn't come across as inexperienced. After some time, Kyra emerged from the bathroom and, noticing me still deep in my reading, kindly suggested, "Hey Athena, you're still at it? The bathroom is free now if you'd like to take a relaxing bath.""Thanks, after I finish reading, I'll be sure to take a relaxing bath." In response, she reminded me, "Don't stay up too long," before heading to bed to settle down for the night, while I delved back into my book. 

As I glanced at the clock, I realized that it was 11:00 pm. Feeling the need to freshen up, I decided it was time to head to the bathroom for a relaxing bath before retiring for the night. I made a mental note to visit the library in the morning. Letting out a tired yawn, I proceeded to get ready for bed.
