       Getting back to the Hall was difficult, to say the least. At
       first they tried to have Nirralia levitate Tyia, but Tyia
       complained so much that Nirralia lost her concentration,
       accidentally dumping her on the ground. Next they tried having
       her be supported by Aeia and Visalia, but she snarled at the
       Water Embodiment until she purposely dropped her. Finally, they
       figured out that she could sit on a patch of Earth that floated
       in the air, controlled by Visalia's powers.
       "Why can't I walk?!" Tyia grumbled for the hundredth time. "It's
       just my arm, not an ankle for Pete's sake."
       "I'm not answering you any more." Aeia said coldly.
       Tyia humphed, starting to cross her arms before setting them
       back down as a flash of pain shot down to her right elbow.
       As soon as they reached the Hall, The Council Leader opened the
       wide oak doors. "I was going to tell you our arrangements at the
       mountain but-"
       Tyia snapped. "I didn't break an arm to have you keep secrets.
       What exactly is your precious plan?"
       He swallowed hard, folding his hands. "I'll tell you in the
       morning. You should all be heading for the mess hall."
       Tyia groaned. "Ugh, fine." She tapped her fingers on the rock
       surface. "Visalia," She threatened. "I am walking into that
       hall."
       She nodded sharply, glaring. A hole opened up in the floor under
       Tyia's rock, the object lowering into the ground. Tyia
       grudgingly let Nirralia help her stand up, dusting off her black
       shirt with her good arm.
       "Wonder what's, uh, for dinner?" Nirralia said awkwardly.
       **************************************************************
       Tyia narrowed her eyes at the stares and whispers that greeted
       her. The questioning looks stopped, but the whispers grew
       increasingly louder.
       "What happened this time?"
       "She was talking about battling a dragon..."
       "No! That's nearly impossible!"
       "Seriously? A Dragon Shifter?! That's like, so rare!"
       "Ahem."
       Everyone glanced towards the Council Leader as he cleared his
       throat. He motioned for Tyia to stand by him, an order that was
       slowly carried out.
       "Today, a centuries old tradition was revived once again. A
       dragon was fought; as is the custom, the winner received a
       portion of the loser's power."
       Everyone's eyes widened as they realized what he was saying.
       A few laughs were heard from the back. "Imagine, the great Tyia
       Ashen, a loser."
       Tyia glared, her dark frown suddenly turning to a smirk. "Of
       course." She faked a sad, defeated look. "I- lost.." She looked
       down. Even saying it to plan revenge was hard.
       The laughs grew louder. "Clearly they're stupid." Someone
       muttered. "No one with any experience with Tyia would do that."
       They didn't hear however, and continued to poke the wildcat.
       Tyia dragged the Council Leader back into the shadows before he
       could correct her. "Don't say anything else..." She warned. The
       man raised an eyebrow.
       "Don't." She hissed. "I'll tell everyone myself."
       He sighed. "Miss Ashen, I will permit you that if you promise no
       one will be harmed."
       She smiled evilly. "Of course."
       **************************************************************
       Tyia stormed over to the back of the hall, pretending to be
       angry. It must have been a convincing performance; well, either
       that or the crowd had been expecting it. In any case, a large
       berth was given to the girl.
       Tyia walked over to the idiots who had insulted her. "Hello."
       She spat. "I see you're either very foolish or suicidal."
       A boy with long, wild blue hair stepped forwards. "A broken
       arm," He mused. "I'd win in no time."
       Tyia growled. "Really? Disgusting Water Embodiment. You reek."
       She shifted into a fighting stance. "You know my name; I'd like
       to have the honor of knowing yours."
       He gathered moisture from the air, the Water freezing and
       melting again as he absentmindedly played with it. "Damian
       Pandragon." He sighed blankly. "Now, shall we get on with it?"
       Chapter Six
       "You're going to need a few months in the infirmary after this."
       Tyia retorted.
       His expression remained carefully smoothed over, but a slight
       tone of smugness crept in. "Really? But didn't our beloved
       Leader tell you not to harm anyone?"
       Her startled face quickly turned into an angry one. "You were
       eavesdropping!"
       He was grinning now. "No. I merely deduced that you were going
       to attack during the announcement. You should leave the
       deceptions to the Water Elementals. We're actually good at it."
       Tyia hissed. "Like I care what he says. I should burn your guts
       out. But-" She laughed. "I'll just smash you."
       The crowd around them gasped as Tyia rolled up her sleeve. As
       ridged mark became visible on her arm, even Damian looked
       startled.
       "That's right! You are stupid!" Tyia let her sleeve fall back
       down her arm again. "But I'm not finished yet..."
       A mass of shrieks echoed throughout the Hall as Tyia's molecules
       separated. Dozens of fleeing bodies ran away, until there were
       only two Elementals left.
       Damian stepped back, glancing around. Dark scales became a blur
       as the newborn dragon leaped. Her claws hit Ice as the boy threw
       up a shield.
       Flames danced around the glassy dome, rivers of Water running
       down the sides as Tyia breathed on it. Damian imploded the
       sphere, icicles mere rattles against iron as they hit her armor.
       Looking slightly amused at the small bug below her, Tyia
       playfully swatted at him. Her claws hit the ground each time as
       he dodged.
       Damian went on the offensive, streams of moisture wrapping
       around her muzzle. She tried to steam it away, but the Fire
       sputtered out. The dragon roared, a strange deep sound coming
       from it's throat. It bashed the Water on the ground, the liquid
       falling away.
       Damian chuckled. "Water beats Fire."
       The Shifter shook her head. I wish I could talk right now!
       He dodged a spurt of heat, Fire and Ice flying around in the
       air. A quick strike would be good enough for Tyia to injure him,
       but every time she shot at him, he wasn't there.
       This was still going to be easy though. She was a Dragon Shifter
       now; that would give her a good advantage.
       "Miss Ashen!"
       Tyia growled, turning away from her quarry. She shifted back
       into her human form, glaring defiantly at the elder man who was
       staring at her in disbelief.
       "You disobeyed my orders." He said, glancing at Damian as well.
       "I told you not to harm anyone."
       Tyia straightened up. "And I didn't." She pointed a finger at
       Damian. "Not a scratch." Tyia clenched her fists. "As much as I
       wish otherwise."
       His disapproving frown grew deeper. "But you attempted to harm
       him. Miss Ashen, do you actually want to go on your journey?"
       Damian gave a surprised glance at the word journey.
       Tyia's eyes widened. "You never mentioned a journey!" She said
       furiously.
       "Indeed." He said, dismissing her with a wave of his hand. "I
       will explain now. But first, I would like for you to gather your
       friends-"
       "Comrades." Tyia hissed.
       "And then head to the infirmary to have your arm put in a cast.
       Damian Pandragon, you may retire to your room."
       The Water Embodiment stalked off, most likely to sulk and
       threaten his runaway posse.
       Tyia made a point of walking the opposite direction, not caring
       that she was taking the long way around.
       ****************************************************************
       Aeia looked around the Council Hall, sitting down in a small
       chair. She folded her hands in her lap, still uncomfortable with
       the clothes she had been given. It was centuries after her time,
       but did they really have to give her such a short skirt? At
       least she didn't have to wear the things called "pants" Visalia
       was currently wearing. She still couldn't believe women actually
       wore trouser-like clothing...
       Tyia glanced over at Aeia, her arm in a cast now. She'd only met
       one other Water Embodiment besides Damian, and that was
       Nirralia's adopted grandfather. The male gender didn't seem to
       be very different; calm, but if you got in a fight with them,
       very smooth and as quick to anger as a brooding storm. Was Aeia
       like that?
       Nirralia looked at Tyia. She hoped that the Fire Embodiment was
       all right, but right now she was wonderbouncing in her seat in
       excitement. Tyia had been angry about her Grandfather not
       telling them...
       What she'd heard next was a collection of varied threats, and
       then the word "Journey." Nirralia grinned in excitement. Where
       were they going?
       Visalia looked around at the group of people who were examining
       them, as if they were looking for some sort of miracle.
       "Where are we going?" Tyia asked impatiently, crossing her arms.
       "You promised to tell us that. And I want to know what we're
       going there for. Are we looking for a certain object?"
       The Head of the Council stood up, clearing his throat to speak.
       "As mentioned before, the world is wasting away, becaiuse of
       machines that are draining Elemental magic. The only way we have
       found to repair the damage is to first destroy these machines,
       then have the four most powerful Embodiments give a portion of
       their life force away. It seems there was a prophecy centuries
       ago about this:"
       The Ia, the powerful, the noble, the kind. The ones that endure
       world's end. We shall take their love and let the force grow,
       and then the world will be saved.
       "What are the Ia?" Nirralia asked, raising her hand.
       "The word Ia means Elemental." The Head answered. "If you
       haven't noticed, all your names end with it."
       Visalia stood up. "But you still haven't answered where we're
       going."
       He looked at her. "The truth is, we've only located one of the
       machines. It's embedded in a mountain near the Texas
       borderline."
