Rise of the Elements

Chapter 11: Secret Base

"So what do we do about this" April asked waving her hands at the castel.

"Well, we should probably do something that will be secretive to the other side." Julie replied.

"How are we supposed to do that?" April asked.

" I have an idea," Ariel said. "We can make a secret base!"

"Yeah! Why don't we do it like this... Julie look up a spell in your spellbook for protection and shields. I will find some metals and shape them and when they are in the right shape, Ariel you freeze them and put up an ice mailbox because I have always wanted one. Ok, April can put some invisibility power in Julie's potion and make our base invisible."

"Wow I never knew you were smart Pepto!" Julie said.

"Meany head." I said in response.

So when we finished it was a pile of pillows and a broom. " We are terrible architects!" Ariel said. "Maybe this time we should use our powers." Julie added.

" Ok lets try this again!" April said.

"Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo, Du, Du, Doo, Du-"

"SHUT UP PEPTO!" Julie said clearly annoyed.

" I can only work while singing. D-" Of course Julie attacked him and put a spell on him by using a shut up potion. "mmm,mmmm,mmm,mm!" And he was humming. When we got the structure we each added a little piece of decor. Julie added a portal for a door, April added a cloud walkway, Ariel added ice railing. It all looked good then I put lava around the house, in a moat form... I was surely positive that someone would definately see our base until, Julie a spell on it. With a wave of her hand, there was a high pitched sound and then, it looked like a break in the sound barrier, a wave force so strong, I could see the clear moving about it. "Ummmm, Julie, I think you have mistaken your power for a 'making everything still look like it is' power, instead of an invisible spell. Ready say it with me: in-vis-a-ble," I said to her, trying so very hard not to burst her bubble. "No you dimwit! (She is SO mean to me!) It is only invisible to those I choose, and visible to those I choose!" she said that SO meanly! "Oh yeah! Like on that website 'Squimmel Remind'!" April added. "Well, now I just feel stupid!" I pouted (don't tell that to the ladies though!) "YOU SHOULD!" April yelled at him, she didn't mean it though... Everyone started laughing.

"Ok, so we have our base... What now?" Pepto asked.

"Well, we have to get ready with an army!" April replied.

"Yeah, we can get everyone that we have met along the way, just for a practice round! Just like if we were training, but with a real actual army and stuff!" Ariel exclaimed!

"Great idea! Elementar won't know what hit him! Unless he is watching us right now..." Julie said.

"JULIE!!!" they all yelled.

"That totally ruined our victory mood!" I complained.

"Aw.... I'm so... JUST SHUT UP!" Julie joked.

"let's go!" April said.

Then we all were teleported to her castle. "Maybe we should practice our powers and learn more." I suggested.

" Yeah that is a good idea." April said.

" I know what we can do! I can take water out of a big lake, one blob at a time, and then freeze them to make them look like soldiers. Then we can all battle them maybe when we get more familiar with our powers Julie can make a potion of life. Pepto, can you figure out a way to set up motion sensored laser blasters, so they can fire at us when we practice?"

"Sure! I'll need some parts though... Also, how many do you plan on making?"

"An army will do" April said.

"Aw man!" I complained.

"Julie, do you have any large bodies of water around here?" I asked her.

"Yeah... The biggest one I have seen, is down 400 feet, the walk 50 paces to your left, and a mile to your right, then walk up the hill, and hike to the other side of the moon... And you could probably get there in about 14 hours or so." She said.

"Um, Julie!"

"Yeeees?"

" I don't know if you noticed, but, you have teleportation powers."

"Yeah, so?" She waited a minute, as we all looked at her. "Ohhhh! Yeah! Sorry, I was just kind of wrapping my head around all this power stuff." She explained.

"One last thing," Ariel said to April. "Can you get us a slight wind current to move around the 'ice army'? I can get Julie to put portals on either side of them so it will flow through on both sides." I suggested. "Yeah of course! My powers have gotten a lot easier to control, and are very strong!" She said, and we all got to work.

Ariel made the frozen army, I attached my blasters to each. Julie and April were finishing up the air movement system, while I melted the faces of the army to look like trolls and goblins. "PEPTO!" They all yelled. "Hey... I was just adding some life to them, now they aren't just faceless blocks of ice floating around!" April said I had a good point. " Eh, we don't have any time to fix them, we have to start practicing." Julie said. "Well then, what are we waiting for... Julie? Can you teleport all of the head of security from all of our planets here, so we can all have a meeting about our powers and how to use them?" April asked. "Yeah! That would help a lot... I need some lava to manipulate!" I said.

" Okay." April responded.
