Lori POV
everyone's gaze snapped towards the corner.

"i'd been waiting to see which of you would leave that bloody circle."

the air in the room became thick, suffocating.

"figures it was you, fire, you always were the more..what's the word, daring."

Peter took a step back, but froze.
"tsk tsk tsk.. you've stepped out the circle. Cant go back in..well not until you die again."

"w-what are you going on ab-bout?"
the scared boy shuffled behind the high boy, using him as a human shield

the voice stepped out of the shadow, revealing a tall man, dressed head to toe in black, with his pale white skin glowing in contrast.
his eyes were covered by his top hat

"the five," he chuckled, deep and gravelly, "it's been 200 years, took you lot long enough to to find each other."
"u-uh.."
"i know your confused..don't worry..i'm not gonna hurt ya" he pulled his hat off to reveal a set of glowing red eyes."
"ahhh"

woah..
"your...what are you..why do you keep calling us the five "
"that is what you are.." he slowly walked along the edge of the circle, stalking us
"fire.." he pointed to peter
"water.." scared boy
"earth..."high boy
"air.." the girl
"and aether" he stopped, and crouched in front of me.
"oh aether.." he whispered and grabbed my jaw, turning my head from side to side..
i should be scared, but this man seemed so..familiar
"have we..have we met before?" I whispered...staring into his red eyes.
"I suppose I should remind you of who you all once were...."
