Max Adventures: Elemental Guardians Episode 1: Crashing The Party

Chapter 12: Vision of the Amulets

Leena opened her eyes and she found herself surrounded by all these floating magical amulets, each one was a different shape and color. Her eyes scanned each one but her eyebrows perked up when she noticed the water amulet, the one Apachi used. "One, two...eight. There's eight of them" Leena told herself as she counted them.

She heard a clanging sound and she turned around and was surprised that behind her was someone. It looked like a knight. It wore a silver mask that looked like a feline. Leena stared at this mysterious knight. The knight stood still but then it held out its hand.

Leena looked at the hand and back at the knight with suspicion. Then the hand emitted a pink magic that matched Leena's magic arrows. Leena's eyes sparkled in wonder at this magic and slowly she placed her hand into the knight's hand. She gasped when the pink light surrounded her hand and it glowed brighter to the point where Leena shut her eyes.

"Gasp!" Leena suddenly woke up. Max was next to her and he stared at her surprised from her sudden wake up. Leena breathed heavy and she looked around. She was in a bed at the royal palace. "What..." Leena said confused until she made eye contact with Max. "Leena!" Max said relieved and happy, he pulled her in a hug. He was so happy to see her awake.

Leena was still confused but she wrapped her arms around, knowing he needed it after she risked her life for him, he definitely took quite the scare. Max broke the hug and looked at her "Leena!" Bella peeked out the door and when she saw Leena was up, she brighten up and quickly ran into the room.

The rest of their friends came running in the room happy and relieved. "You ok Leena?" Spike asked her worried with Twitch by his side. "Yeah I'm fine. What happen though?" Leena asked rubbing her head, still thinking about that dream.

"After you got hit by that water star, you were out cold. We brought you back to the palace and you've been out since last night" Max explained to Leena and Leena noticed that it was morning.

She looked down, her mind on that dream. "Leena?" Bella asked noticing how zoned out she looked. "Are you ok?" Zinta asked worried and everyone stared at her worried. Leena looked at them and looked back down. She felt that dream meant something.

"No. No I'm not ok. I had this wierd dream. I was surrounded by all these amulets. And one of them was that water amulet. And then this masked knight showed up and it held out its hand with magic on it. When I held the knight's hand, I felt the magic going in my. It felt so...wierd" Leena said looking at her hand, remembering how warm that magic felt...it almost felt familar.

"That was no dream!" Higgabottom's voice called out and everyone turn to see the owl rushing in with a book and with Kara behind. He placed the open book on Leena's bed and in the page was the amulets "Those amulets you saw Leena and the one Apachi had are the Elemental Amulets. Each amulet has a different element"

"Each amulet has a different form and power depending on its element. And Apachi right now has the water amulet, granting him the abilites of water" Higha explained as he pointed at the Water Amulet.

"Professor do you know who this Apachi is?" Max asked as he looked at the professor. "This Apachi is a new mage. But he is much too young to become one. I'm not sure what his intentions are. But whatever it is, it can't be good" Higga said worried as everyone got quiet.

Twitch then remembered something from earlier when he met Apachi "Wait! Apachi does know Magus" Twitch said and everyone looked at hin surprised. "Magus?" Max said surprised "Yeah. Apachi said Magus hid the water amulet. I bet if we find a way to connect with him-" Twitch said and Max realized his point.

"Then Magus can explain everything!" Max said excited that they were getting somewhere. "Then we must go back to the ocean and connect with Magus. He might have all the answers" Higgabottom said and everyone felt pretty happy to hear they were getting somewhere.

"I'll go find Khan and let him know. He can guide us there" Tazer said as he ran off with Zinti following him. Leena however still felt uncomfortable. She couldn't stop thinking of that masked knight.

"And the knight professor?" She asked and the professor looked at her clueless. "I'm afraid this masked knight is something beyond my knowledge. Lets hope Magus might know something" he said and Leena looked down, Max placed a hand on her shoulder, trying to reassure her.

"But don't worry. Cause this time I'm coming with you!" Higga announced excited and everyone looked at him surprised. Max looked at him wide eye and shook his head incase he was dreaming "Are you sure professor? You usaully don't like to get caught in these adventures. Plus you don't like to ride Phoenix" Max told him as the professor closed the book and held it.

"True but I want to see these amulets for myself. Who knows what kind of research I can collect. Plus I want to help you Max. Beside, I already made my own swimming gear. And one for Kara too" "What?!" Kara said shocked and uncomfortable.

"Why do I have to come?!" Kara asked surprised. "We may need your muscle Kara. And besides. Don't elephants love water?" Higga asked curious while Leena and Max laughed quietly. Kara groaned upset as he face palmed.
