"Where am I?" I asked no one in particular, rubbing my head from whatever had caused it to throb so violently.

"Who are you?" A soft female voice asked from beside me. I looked next to me and found Myra, the shy and extremely quiet elemental master of Mirage. She was the quiet one (Not like what you think XD She's NOT Harumi!) we had tried to meet with. She looked at me, confused and scared.

"I'm Cole. Remember when we met at the airport?" I asked her, but she just seemed even more confused than before, "Just why are, I mean, where are we?"

"I-i don't know..." Was all Myra had to offer. Great... looks like I'll be looking for my friends and be dragging her around with me. I can't just leave her here! Now... to find some sort of-

"Good morning, Elemental Masters! Welcome to the Tournament of Elements - Wave 2!!" Chen's extremely annoying voice came on a hidden speaker of some sort. Where does he hide those things in a jungle? "You're goal for this Tournament is to be the last standing master in Chen's Jungle! Remember... Only ONE can remain! And Master Chen's Noodles are amazingly delicious!"

My first thought was, wow, what a creative name... Chen's Jungle... You really couldn't think of anything else?
And my second thought was, we have to go through this whole 'Only one can remain' thing again?! I was about to have a third thought when my whole train of thought crashed as the speaker came back on to announce what I dreaded to be the worst of all our circumstances.

"Also! I forgot to mention that Clousy Clouse was good enough to swap all of your elements! Have fun with your new powers!" Chen giddily delivered the news to us and what I assume to be everyone else.

"What?!" Myra and I said at the same time. We both looked at each other in shock and then down at our hands. We both reached deep within ourselves and let our elemental powers out on two unfortunate trees, but something went completely wrong. I formed a mirage of... cake. I just happened to be thinking of it when I looked over to see Myra as she shot several rocks at the tree's trunk.

She looked back at me in horror and immediately broke down crying. Myra collapsed to the ground right as I swooped in and caught her.

"Hey... What's wrong?! A-are you hurt?" I asked, concerned, still looking at her crying and confidentless face. She kept crying and didn't say anything. I worried about her, but I was also really curious about my teammates too. I'm the responsible one, no one gets hurt under my control. But I can't protect or save them when I'm not with them. And that bothered me.

"Um... You don't need to cry, everything will be alright." I tried to calm her down and get her attention. And suddenly it worked. She gave me a blank look and then snapped. Then she spat out all the anger and sadness in her body.

"Everything will be ALRIGHT? Do you think I'm some kind of Fairy?! I won't believe those lies! We're all gonna die here and you have the right to tell me that everything is going to be fine?! I know what happened at the first Tournament! You all were about to DIE! And this time, Chen made everything ten times harder for us!! WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE!!!" Myra shouted at me, pushing me back. She looked exhausted after ranting so much, but it didn't stop there.

"We need to pray to die in a good way! Don't you understand?! And don't even try to give me some motivational speech about how we're gonna make it out together!" She crawled away and layed down on the cold and dewy grass, crying... I know she's right. But that doesn't means we can't try...
Or does it??
