"Hello class. My name is Mr. Ameto. Today we will be learning about the rules of the EPS." Mr. Ameto drones on. "I'm bored already." I whisper to Mike, who just nods. "There is to be no fighting with other Elementals unless you are instructed to do so by an instructor. Anyone caught breaking this rule will be banned from training, the Network, and the Plaza for a week. Breaking this rule a second time bans you for two weeks, and three is a suspension. Report to your classes when you are supposed to, and just use your common sense on how to treat other Elementals. Don't leave school grounds without explicit permission. That will be all." Mr. Ameto finishes.
Mike and I look at our schedules for the rest of the day. We have nothing so we transport to the Courtyard. I look up at the sky. There are dark clouds heading towards the EPS. I feel the power growing inside of me again, but not as strong as it used to feel. I hear thunder in the distance.
"All Elementals, report back to your rooms immediately, due to weather conditions." The announcement blares on the speaker. "Oh darn. Come on Mike, lets go." I pull out my T-Pad to transport to my room, but Mike doesn't. He dashes off over to the other side of the plaza and behind one of the buildings.
"MIKE!" I shout. I bolt over to the building he went to and look around the corner. Mike isn't there, but I hear his voice. "There is a storm coming. We need to do it today." I hear the voice of someone through a walkie talkie. I slowly tip toe to the next corner. I poke my head around and see him.
He jolts his head in my direction. "He's seen me!" he whispers as he turns off the walkie talkie. He shoots a cloud in my direction. I shrink it and make it dissolve. I didn't know Mike was that good.
The thunder claps again and my arm lights up with electricity. The power is growing again. I feel myself becoming possessed by it. Not again. I don't want another Mr. Jones incident. Mike runs around another corner. I begin propelling myself forward by shooting lightning behind me.
"Where is he?" a harsh voice whisper.
"He's coming right now!" Mike whisper yells.
As I reach the corner, I come to a sudden stop. My feet are stuck to the ground. In fact, they are frozen solid.
"Mike, what is this!?" I ask angrily. An elemental in a black suit shoots this dust at me, and everything starts spinning. I am falling I feel myself being lifted off of the ground. I try to resist but I am to weak. I can barely see a Frost, a Dark, Mike, and an Aqua. The power. It's growing again.
It surges through my body. In my blurred vision, I can see one of them falling. Then I black out.
