Elemental (Cancelled)

Chapter 5: An Unlikely Prison

I had to escape. 5 minutes had passed and I knew that if I wanted to keep sane, I had to try and escape. I was going to die anyway, so I decided to shorten my wait.

I noticed a water fountain nearby. "Maybe I can manipulate it." I said to myself. Then I decided that I didn't have powers, that it was all ridiculous. I sat back down. I was already going insane with false memories. Great.

The memories aren't false, Lake. You can control water.

"Ocean?!" I exclaimed.

I am here.

"Well I might as well try..." I said.

I raised my arm and to my surprise, the water made its way to my palm. But after that, it just splashed onto the floor.

"It didn't work." I said.

Think about it, water can freeze into ice. You have ice powers too.

I had an idea. Once again I brought the water to my palm, but this time, I changed it into ice. It worked. Then I moulded the ice into a sharp lock pick and tried it on the cell door. It swung open. I punched the air in joy.

Great Job Lake!

I strolled out, feeling confident. Then I stopped in disbelief. There was nothing beyond the door. Nothing but the water fountain and a large brick wall.

Look with water.

"What?" I cried. "You're crazy!"

Trust me.

I sighed. Well I had opened a cell door with water...

I took a breath and willed water to my eye.

My sense of sight was amazing! I could see the individual water droplets in the fountain! Straight away, I noticed that the room was different but it took me a few seconds to figure out why.

The brick wall was gone.
