Chapter nine - Teaming up
Storm's POV:
The figure opened the cell door and walked in. He snapped his fingers and the lights turned on. I blinked a couple times before looking at the figure. He had spiky yellow hair and gold eyes. He was wearing a black t shirt with a gold lightning bolt on it, light blue basket ball shorts, and black running shoes. He smiled at me. "Before we start I want you to change into this." He said as he handed me a no sleeve black dress that had yellow flames at the bottom and silver lightning bolt in the middle. I grabbed it and held it up on me to see it went to mid thigh. I looked back at Bolt and he handed me some gray shorts that go underneath the dress. I nodded and he walked out of the cell and into another room. I got changed into the dress and he came back into the room. "I have decided not to teach you how to use your power." He stated. I frowned. "Instead, I will tell you about your past." He chuckled as he sat outside the cell. I looked at him. "Well... as you know, our dad is the Lightning elemental. But our mom was the darkness elemental. You never hear about her because after she had us she became evil and killed everyone. Mom looked exactly like you actually... Anyways, Mom told dad that with controlling darkness, she can control demons and dark souls. Which made her the enemy. Dad made a lightning sword and killed her with it. Mom smiled evilly as she died. She told dad that one of the children would have her power as well. Dad ignored her and ran to us. He picked us up and brought us to town. He gave us to a human family. We grew up together for a couple years, but once you got mad and your powers showed. They got frightened and kicked you out of the house." I frowned. "Who has mom's power then...?" I asked nervously. Bolt smiled evilly and laughed. "You of course my little demon." I shook my head. "No... I'm, I'm not a demon! And, I'm not a bad person..." Bolt laughed. "Yes, you are! It is your destiny to be bad. Your destiny to kill your friends!" I shook my head again. "No! I... I will never kill my friends!" Bolt laughed louder. "Stop lying to yourself little demon! Just except it!" I stood up and glared at him. "Never." He smiled. "Fine, then I will have to make you see your new power. I'm sorry it had to come to this little demon." He snapped his fingers and the lights went out. "Isolation is the best way to make someone show their crazy side... Don't you think mom?" He laughed and left the room. I crawled to the corner of the room and hugged my knees. "It's just a dream... Just a dream... Just a dream..." I mumbled to myself
Jack's POV:
Caleb and Riley froze. "B-Bolt...?" Riley asked. Graham nodded. "Yeah. Do you know him?" Riley took in a deep breath and nodded. "Yeah... We just got away from him." Caleb put his hand on Riley's shoulder and smiled. She smiled back. "We can help you get your friend back. But we need to move fast. Who knows what Bolt could do to her." Caleb said calmly. I looked at everyone else and they nodded. "Everyone hold hands." Riley said as she grabbed Caleb's hand. Caleb grabbed Ethan's hand and he grabbed Aurora's hand. Aurora grabbed Graham's hand and he grabbed Aqua's hand. Aqua glared at me as she grabbed my hand. I grabbed Riley's other hand and she closed her eyes. "Hold on tight." She said as the wind picked up. Aqua's grip tightened on my hand. I glared at her and she glared back. "We will be traveling by air. Bolt's base is a three day walk. By air it should be about one and a half, not including sleeping and eating." Riley stated. "Alright. Let's go." Ethan said happily.
After a couple hours of flying it was getting dark. Riley brought us to the ground and I started a fire. We all ate a quick meal of berries. "I'll take first watch." Graham stated. "I'll take second!" Riley said. Everyone mumbled an ok as they lied down. I sat down by a tree and leaned agented it. Stay safe Stormy, we're coming for you.
The next morning I heard an alarm. I opened my eyes to see a red alarm clock beside the bed. I sat up and looked around to see six other beds in the room. There was a brown one, a white one, a dark green one, a yellow one, a blue one, a black one, and a silver one. I looked at the one I was in to see it was red. I got out of the bed and walked to the other beds to see everyone sleeping in them. I shook awake and they also looked around. "Where are we?" Aurora asked sleepily as she sat up in her yellow bed. Ethan sat up in his dark green bed and looked out the window. Aqua glared at me as she sat up in her blue bed. She looked over at Graham and shook his awake. He bolted up in his silver bed and looked around wildly. Riley got out of her white bed and slapped Caleb. He jumped out of his brown bed and stood at attention. Riley rolled her eyes playfully at Caleb as he stretched and sat back down on his bed. "What do you all remember?" Graham asked. Aurora shrugged. "Last I remember was sleeping in the forest." We all nodded. "Who was on guard duty?" Caleb asked. Graham and Riley raised their hands. "I woke Riley up and went to bed." Graham said. Riley thought for a moment. "As I was guarding I saw a flash of yellow and then I woke up here." Riley explained. The door opened and a boy with messy orange hair walked in. He had green eyes and freckles. The boy was wearing a purple t shirt, blue jeans and black running shoes. He looked at everyone. "Hello. My name is Ace, and welcome to your new home."
