Liz's Pov:
The new and improved team of Elemental Warriors reached the entrance of the forest. "This is it. This is where the threat is coming from." Hexa spoke to us through our communicators. "Continue into the forest, I'll tell if I sense any threats or obstacles in our way. Just be careful." Hexa stated and we all nodded. We slowly entered into the forest with eyes looking at each side and corner of the area. Everything seemed foggy, dark, and quiet. It was so quiet, you could hear the creaking sound of a branch starting to break and the many sounds of an animal. Sam suddenly appeared next to me and I jumped out of fear as I bumped into Daniel. "Liz, watch where you're going!" He exclaimed as he pushed me off of him. "Excuse me? That was Sam's fault!" I replied, glaring at the mouse hybrid. "I'm sorry! I didn't mean to do that! I was just kinda creeped out in the back." The words above his head responded. I could see his body trembling a bit as he sweated in panic. "Whatever. Just stay away from me, got it?" I ordered as I sighed. He nodded quickly and I started to walk, noticing how Sam lagged behind me. He acts just like a robot, waiting for his orders and immediately following any directions given to him. Kind of concerning. "Hey, Crystal! Come over here!" I exclaimed and the light blue sheep hybrid walked beside me. "Yeah, what is it, Liz?" She asked. "As hybrids, do you guys have like a society of classes. High and low ones? If so, which species do they apply to?" I asked as I looked behind me. I saw Sam looking down at the ground as he continued to lag back.

"Well, not really. Hybrids live the same as humans. Although, some people say the lowest form of hybrids is rodents like mice hybrids." Crystal replied, scratching her head. "Right. Do you think he is acting this way because of it?" I asked. "Maybe, maybe not. I'm not sure if he knows about it." Crystal replied, looking back at the mouse hybrid. I could see her eyes soften at him. Is she really turning soft at someone we barely know about? Hell, for all I know, he could betray us at any minute. "Hey guys, focus! Don't talk about him like that." Hexa spoke and our eyes hit the path once again.

"You really should mind your own business, Liz," Daniel spoke and I scoffed. "Look who's talking," I replied. "I'm just saying that questioning the hybrid rules sometimes isn't a good idea. Especially if it's about someone we don't know or trust." He explained. "And I'm just saying that you shouldn't stick your head in my conversations. Jeez, Daniel, you are so defensive over someone we barely know." I responded, rolling my eyes. "I'm not! I just don't want him to think we're talking behind his back and kill us! I'm trying to save our lives out here!" Daniel exclaimed, facing me.

I stopped walking as I faced him, the group stopped and stared at the confrontation. "Excuse me? Like he'll do anything to hurt us! He seems like a shy person with no other purpose in life but, to follow orders." I argued. "Just because he may be a lower class hybrid, doesn't mean we can lower our defense and talk crap behind his back, Liz!" He argued back. "Both of you stop! Honestly, you act like children!" Pink Sheep exclaimed, getting in between of us. "He's right though, you guys are acting immature plus he's standing right in front of you." Ender spoke through the communicator.

We both looked to see Sam with his eyes widen, his emotionless pupils seemed to be full of life suddenly as he stared us down. "Guys, watch out! I sense something big coming your way!" Hexa exclaimed and we snapped back into reality. This ExplodingTNT character is really setting a toll on our friendship in the group. We all summoned our elements as we stood at each perimeter of the area. "Show yourself, coward!" Violet yelled out. Nothing responds and everyone stays silent.

We wait for a sound to be made, a clue to be heard, or a movement to be put in action. Suddenly, ExplodingTNT pushed the group aside and something banged against something else. I was about to open my mouth to yell at the mouse hybrid until I saw what was in front of me. Sam stood there with a sword made out of fire in his grasp. He stood face to face with another person who held a shield made of ice. "An ice element?" I questioned and I stood up carefully. "It seems ice may be stronger than fire!" The person teased, smirking.

"No, it's not! I will not allow you to harm them!" The words exclaimed as TNT pushed the sword closer to the shield. Sam summoned a fireball and slammed the elemental skill into the other person's stomach. The person went off flying as an icicle was thrown from his hand. The icicle headed toward Daniel and I was about to use electricity to stop until Sam grasped it. Making the icicle melt in the process. We all stood up as the person slowly made his way back to us. ExplodingTNT looked behind him and we all stared at him as he showed his emotionless eyes once again.

"Who are you?" Purple Shep exclaimed. "Zeph! Wielder of the Element of Ice and Snow!" He exclaimed as he wore a panda hat, cerulean sweater, black jeans, and red converse shoes. "Why are you here?" Violet exclaimed and Zeph chuckled. "To destroy you!" He replied, summoning icicles. "Elemental Warriors, attack!" I yelled out and everyone nodded.

ExplodingTNT looked at me directly before running off to join the battle.
