Scarlet May may seem like a normal human being... she's anything but. Like her and other orphans, special elemental spies had taken her to one of the five camps- each camp representing each of the five elements: Fire, Water, Earth, Wind, and The Secret Element. When the vile, evil creatures known as Shades, have had increased activity near the borders of Scarlet's camp, it's up to her, Trent, and Kate to save the camps, to its possible doom. Will the Shades catch her before they catch them in the act of destruction?
