A pebble dropped on the far wall where the window should be. I wait impatiently for Amelia. I needed to know that she was okay, if she wanted to talk about it. I needed to know if she actually wanted to go with Erik. What if she needed somebody, no one can stay strong forever, and I wanted to be there to help.

"Are you okay?" I blurt out the single question that couldn't nearly sum up everything I wanted to know. She caught me off guard as she watched me with an amused look plastered across her freshly washed face.

"I'm fantastic, you guys on the other hand. There doing evaluations to group together the elemental's. Which is fine; however, Tristan supposedly found a pure fire, and seeing how fire is the least common element I see in here and you two are the only one who's entered in a while, I can only assume it's one of you." Amelia whispers through the window as if somebody was listening.

"Yeah, and unfortunately that is not me. Do you know what he plans on doing with them?" David asked, startling me. I can't believe I didn't hear his footsteps echo on the concrete floor. He was like a ghost, an ice ninja, silent.

"Damn, and I was really hoping you we're earth." Amelia sighed, glancing behind me. Who was she looking for? Nobody could possibly sneak into our locked cell, could they?

"Amelia, what is Moae's plan?" David pressed, forcing Amelia to focus.

"Oh right, I don't know. All I know is it has something with the upcoming blood moon and unlocking some temple." Amelia answered, calmly.

"Damn." It was Davids turn to swear. "That's what I thought, he's planning on unlocking their abilities to break open the Aire temple."

His words come out like an growl, much like I would expect a polar bear to sound like if it could talk. I had absolutely no idea what the hell they were talking about. All I could think of is if David wasn't the fire pure whatever, than it had to be me but that was ridiculous. I might have red hair but that in no way entitled me to bend the element of chaos to my will.

"What would the purpose of that be?" Amelia asked, and for once I wasn't the only one out of the loop.

"I... can't explain this with Marcy in ear shot." David grumbled casting me a sorry filled look. I should have guest that it would be too much to actually learn something about this God forsaken place. I might as well dig my grave now.

"You, shoo." Amelia commanded throwing a pebble at me.

"Excuse you." I growl back, arming myself with my own rocks. I wonder what damage earth would do to someone who wields that gift.

"Okay, I'll loop hole this. Marcy, cover your ears. At least this way the universe can chalk it under I had no 'idea' you could hear me." David compromises with a glance at the heavens. I was going to have a nice long talk with my father when I saw him again, this whole oath to prevent me from having information was beyond getting on my nerves. This was from the man who practically shoved schooling down my throat and told me knowledge was power. What kind of hypocritical BS was that.

"Alright, so, in the center of the Aire Mountain Tribe are four pillars that house the symbols of the four elements. Not much is known about them at the request of the Aire People; however, legend has it that if all four pure blooded elemental's direct their power into their symbol it will light up the fifth in the middle much like how a prism works and open the locker that houses the other two and a half scrolls written by the originals." David explains in depth what he was talking about earlier.
