"For Light's sake, I hate this tomb!" Complained Harley, as the gang and her came upon a fork in the road. There were two possible pathways to go, but both of them looked exactly the same so it was hard for anyone to tell which way was less dangerous.

"I wonder which way is the least dangerous," said Cecil.

"One things for sure, they both look SO inviting!" Said Sami sarcastically.

"We have to ponder this situation carefully," said Ellen, "or flip a coin and let fate decide for us. Anyone got a coin?"

No response.

"We have two teams merged together and no one has a coin?!" Said Lily.

"In all fairness, who carries money during the Wizard Games?" Said Cecil, "anyone got any other ideas? Princess Cassandra, you're awfully quiet. You must be thinking about something."

"Well, I have been getting a weird vibe from the left path," said Cassandra, "I can sense the dead up ahead and I can sense some life ahead as well, but there is only one person. It appears to be a human, but is it even possible?"

"Maybe you're sensing the dead bodies as well as the human," suggested Maya.

"No, that can't be the case," said Cassandra, "like I said, there's only one person. If they're were more dead bodies, I'd be able to sense more bodies instead of just one. For example, down the right path I can sense one living soul and ten dead souls. However, down the left path, I can only sense one soul that is living but has this strange death vibe to it. It's really hard to explain but I can assure you that as far living souls go, I can only sense one soul down each path that is alive."

"The sad thing is that does not at all seem the least bit strange to me," said Cecil, "I'm more concerned with the fact that the Dark One recruited a human. I always thought that all children of Chaos were disgusted by humankind and viewed them as inferior."

"That is quite odd," said Cassandra, "the Dark One's probably controlling the human or something. Though to be honest, I don't disagree with Chaos or her children's choice to look upon humans with disgust. I don't like humans either."

"Same here," said Cecil, "humans suck."

"Ditto," agreed Harley.

An awkward silence had formed. The Magical Elements didn't know how to respond to these racist outbursts. Lily seemed to be very offended. She glared angrily at Cassandra as if she wanted to set her on fire with her mind. It was no surprise to Maya, Ellen and Sami, they knew Lily hated racism towards humans because her late father was a human. Her father was in the military and died in battle before Lily was born. Now whenever a wizard bad mouths about humans, Lily would love nothing more than to strike them down with a massive thunderbolt. The Magical Elements also never understood why they're so many places in the human and wizard worlds that would keep themselves separated from each other instead of coexisting together like the few places in the world that have wizards and humans coexisting together peacefully. They also didn't understand why the humans separate themselves by different races, classes, religions, gender and age. In the wizard world, Wizards only separate themselves into two groups; those who want to use their magic for good deeds and those who want to use their magic for bad deeds, everything else was irrelevant to them because wizards always believed that having wizard blood was good enough to be accepted into their society regardless of minor details like religion or race.

"Why are you guys badmouthing humans?!" Growled Lily, "what have they ever done to you?! You have no right to discriminate! You racist little witch!"

Cassandra frowned and narrowed her eyes at Lily.

"Well, little miss temper, I know a lot about the humans' history," said Cassandra, "As the ACTUAL daughter of the ruler of the underworld, I'm expected to have a vast knowledge of Earth's history and that includes the history of the humans. Obviously you didn't study very hard in history class otherwise you would agree with me! You would also know that ever since humans and wizards came to exist in our worlds, wizards have attempted to make peace with humans so both races can coexist together! Do you know how much both of our races could have benefited from becoming allies with each other?! Wizards could've assisted humans by combining their magic with their medical technology to create miracle cures for diseases that humans thought were incurable, and humans could've finally seen that wizards were people just like the humans and could've joined forces to achieve many advancements that were thought to have taken years to accomplish! But our powers are why humans feared wizards and why they've treated us like outsiders. When someone's different, they're shunned; that's true for both humans and wizards. I know what you guys are thinking; you think I'm a racist towards humans. Well, you're right, and I have eons worth of historical information to back up my beliefs."
