"Nix? Nix! Wake up Nix!!" A familiar voice called. I cracked open one eye and moaned.
"Why am I still here?"
"Where?"
"This hell,"
"Well, today is the first day of training!" Mother/Kellie chirped brightly.
"Training? Of what?" I sat up groggily.
"Your Abilities," Kellie stated.
Just then a girl with long purple hair and blue eyes walked in.
"Who's that?"" Purple Hair asked.
"Alliah, meet Phoenix, your new training partner!"
" Hi, you can call me Alli. I can control the air, influence people's thoughts, and see the future,
what about you?" Alliah informed me.
"Um, I have something to do with fire?" It was a question.
Alliah-Alli laughed, "You mean you don't know yet? Kells, please can we do the Test?!"
I chuckled nervously, "Well..."
"Of course!" Mother cut me off.
I frowned, "Do I have a say in this?"
"Nope!" Alliah smiled warmly.
"Now then, let's get started!"

An hour later we were in a small patch of grass in Mother's backyard.
"Close your eyes, Phoenix!" Alli sang.
I felt my eyes slide closed against my will, and I slept.
The first dream had a man, he had a knife in his hand, and he was stalking towards me. I screamed.
"What the heck?!"
He didn't acknowledge my words. He just kept on coming towards me. Once again I felt fire in
my veins, the knife flew away from his hand and onto the ground next to me. The guy suddenly
flew sideways and slammed into the wall beside us. The world went black. The next dream was
water, lots of it. I panicked, I was fire, I was sure of that, Fire was definitely not supposed to go
with water. I needed something fast, but this time I couldn't feel the fire through my body, just
the fierce water lapping at my face while I tried to keep afloat. I need a boat! I realized, but with
the water, I couldn't use my powers. I tried anyways. Boat, Boat, Boat, BOAT! Something
plopped onto the water beside me. It was a small race boat. I swam over to it and hopped in. As I
dried off, I could feel my powers returning to me. Then, the world darkened again. Then, I felt
myself vibrating. I opened my eyes to find myself bound to train tracks, and to my left was a
huge freight train charging straight towards me. I found my powers, and burned the ropes down,
then jumped off right as the train passed me. Once again, I felt myself sink into darkness, but
this time I came back home.
