"You can die during this test in 4 different ways. Because I tell you about this ways, I have to explain you how the test will take place. Firstly, you'll be let's say, sent into your own mind and that's all we know for sure. From here there are at least 10 different ways in which your test can go. When you'll 'get' there, you'll been in a room or maybe in a forest, but we can't know for sure because we're talking about a person's mind. We don't know what's inside someone's mind, so we can't predict what's going to happen. Then you'll have to pass a challenge and here, again, it depends on your mind and what it can come up with. Some have to escape a room, some have to save someone or I don't know, climb a mountain maybe. The mind is a very unpredictable and we haven't be able to discover all it's sides and quirks yet, even thought we are, indeed, smarter than the human species. Everything clear until now?" Ash asked with his both eyebrows raised at me. 

I  hesitantly nodded with a frown on my face. It's not that I don't understand what he said, but that's the problem, because I did and for me, 4 ways to die are 4 ways too much.

He clapped his hands and crossed them over his chest. "Good. Now, back to the main topic. Remember 4 ways to die-" how can I forget something like that? "-and the first one is getting stuck in a place. For example, If you wake up in a room and you can't escape because you somehow broke the knob. The second way is staying for too long in there and this time we're talking about your mind and not the place where you'll be. By staying for too long in there, you lose contact with the reality and trust me, it's better to day in there then to come back and be insane with no sense of orientation and consciousness. The third one is dying while trying to complete your mission. It's quiet simple, if the conscious part of you dies, you mind follows and it the end you completely die. And it's not like that death brain thing. That happens only to humans. To us, the brain and mind are the most important parts of us. Without them, we're nothing. Now, the forth way happens after you finish your task at hand. You complete your mission and you're face to face with your power. What most don't know is that even though it's basically your power, if your body or mind is too weak they won't be able to handle the sudden additional physical and mental strength. This is the most painful way to die and the view is horrible. It's like when you want to fill a balloon with water and you keep filling it and forcing it even after it reached its maximum capacity."

Goosebumps appeared all over my body and I rubbed my arms trying to reassure myself. It didn't work.

Tomorrow I'll die.

"No, you won't. You'll be fine because I can see you are a strong person. Trust me, you really are a strong person and Elementar if Ash said that. And yes, you said it out loud." Hazel said and smiled at me.

"Okay, now that you know the basic things, you should go back to sleep because you look exhausted." Ash said in the same time I yawned.

"Is it normal to be this tired without doing nothing?" I asked tiredly and climbed in my temporary bed because it's clearly that I can't go home now. Not when my powers are manifesting more and more. I don't want to kill someone by accident. I'm not the best person alive, but I'm not a murderer.

"Yes, it actually is. Your Elementar powers are intensifying and that takes a tool on your body, but everything will be alright after you gain your element."  Ash's voice was sounding like it was far away. 

"Okay. I love muffins and marshmallows." I mumbled before I drifted to sleep.

"Shadow."

I was sleeping like a bear during the winter(minus the whole sucking of the paw thing),when I started to hear voices and I was almost ready to punch that damned alarm clock.
