Ideas for Stories I've Yet to Complete...

An Elemental Fantasy Story

*A/N. So here's the first story, which I planned to be a fantasy fiction about my closest friends and I, if we happened to each have magical abilities/powers tied to the 'elements' (water, fire, earth, air, spirit). It's maybe a little dark/sinister...? I don't know....

Anyway, hope you enjoy, and tell me what you think!

They'd been searching for so long for the missing piece of the group, it almost felt like a dream to at last, have found her. The final Sister of the group...

Like the others, she was found in the most peculiar spot for a person to be staying the last 18 years of their life, unconscious, and almost in a kind of incubation as her ties to her element manifested and strengthened.

They found her trapped under a slab of ice, in the Antarctic – right where Amika said she would be. Everything about the way she looked was perfect: as if she were a Barbie doll. Blonde hair, blue eyes, tall, slender build – beauty at its best.

It was to be a tedious process getting her out. Slamming a pick into the ice might hurt her and send the rest of them tumbling into the icy water as well, which was something none of them could afford. Coming into direct contact with the source of another element meant cancelling out one's own...and eventually, death. Certainly, none of the Sisters wanted that. But they needed the final Sister to be complete. For their powers to reach their full potential.

As they made their first chip into the ice around the final Sister, her eyes suddenly burst open – awakened – and she began to scream. The sound was muffled to almost silence under the water, the ice, and the ice-cold water swiftly entering her lungs, drowning her, but it was clear what was happening to her by the expression on her face. She banged her fists in frantic slow-motion against the pull of the water on the ice, and it cracked some more.

"Hurry!" Amika motioned for her other Sisters to help set their final Sister free before her element killed her. They were confusing things these elements: both something to give their holders strength, or ultimately, their death. But it was always sad, and a nucance, when a host was killed instantly after awakening to her powers.If they didn't act quickly, this was exactly what would happen to the final Sister – and then their coven would never be complete.
