Hey! I’m Chrysanthos or Chris. I’m assuming that you’ve already heard Adara, Cordelia and Aither’s stories. I’m going to start where I left Adara’s house.

After we left Adara’s, we went our separate ways. While I was walking, I heard screaming coming from the woods that’s near my house. I instinctively run in to find a young child being attacked by vines? Either way I run up and rip the vines off of the child and get out of the woods to find myself trapped in the woods? After I find myself trapped, I hear someone calling my name. I, being curious, follow it to find someone who looks exactly like me with dark green hair fading to light green.

“Hello Chrysanthos,” the guy told me.

“One, how do you know me? And two, I prefer to be called by Chris.”

“You are just like the other three, well two.”

“What are you talking about?”

“You know Adara, Cordelia and Aither, right?”

“Yeah?” I say confused.

“They were the same way, well, Adara wasn’t but yeah.”

“How do you know that those three had these encounters?”

“Because I’m the one who they encountered. You are just like Aither.”

“No I’m not. Wait, how have you already met Aither if we both just left Adara’s?”

“That doesn’t matter now, does it?”

“Yes it does.”

“Alright, I’m the goddess of the elements. My name is Aadya. I have many copies of myself. One of my copies is with Aither right now.”

“Then, how do you know what is going on with him?”

“Because all of my copies have the same mind but don’t act the same.”

“How am I supposed to believe you if you look exactly like me?”

“Alright,” the being says as SHE transforms into her regular form. “Is this better?”

“Alright, now I believe you. So, what element am I?”

“You are the Earth element.”

“So I take it that Aither is the Air element?”

“Yep. Is there anymore questions?”

“Nope. I need to go now anyways. Bye, Aadya? I pronounced your name correctly, right?”

“Yeah, bye Chris.”

After we parted ways, I started walking home again. Once I got home, I sent a text to Adara and Cordelia saying that I’m the Earth element (Aither and my text got to them at the exact same time). 

Text messaging:

“Hey girls, I got the Earth element,” I send.

“Wait, what?! How did u and Aither get ur elements at the same time?!” Adara sends.

“Let’s talk after school tomorrow,” Cordelia sends.

“k,” I send.

“Fine by me,” Adara sends.

Exit texting.

Alright, time for me to get ready for tomorrow. Timeskip to the next day. At school.

“Hey Adara, Aither and Cordelia!”

“Hey Chris!” they all respond.

“Hey, guys? Do you realize how much we are getting stared at?” Adara asks.

“Yeah, it’s weird,” Cordelia says.

“It’s probably because we are getting along and not fighting like we normally do,” Aither says.

“Makes sense,” I respond. “Let’s just get ready for class.”

As we get ready to go to class, a bunch of other students surround us and follow us around like little lost puppies.

“What do you guys want?” I ask.

“We were just wondering how you guys are hanging out, that’s all,” Maria, one of the students, says.

“Let’s just say that we share a secret that we can’t tell,” Adara says.

“Okay…?” another student says. I don’t know who.

Timeskip to after school.

“So, where do we want to go to talk?” Aither asks.

“How about we go to my house? My parents are going to be gone until Wednesday,” Adara says.

“How come your parents are always gone Adara?” Cordelia asks.

“I have no clue. Anyways, let’s go to my place!” Adara says.

About five minutes later.

“Alright, tell us about your encounters,” Cordelia says.

“Who should start?” Aither asks.

“Good question considering that you both had your encounters at the same time…” Adara says.

“I say we start with Aither,” I say.

“I guess we can start with mine. After I left Adara’s, I was walking home. As I was about 2 or 3 blocks from my house, I started hearing a weird hissing noise like a tank of air leaking. I also was hearing a little kid screaming for help,” Aither says.

“So, it sounds like we all saved a little kid from one of the elements,” Cordelia says.

“Yeah… Anyways, you can continue Aither,” Adara says.

“It turned out to be a gas leak. After I started hearing the voice, I started shouting at it. That’s also when I figured out that I should’ve been on the floor coughing up a storm. After I made that encounter, I learned that all of our encounters was the same person or, should I say, goddess,” Aither says.

“You met her too?!” I ask.

“Yeah…?” Aither says. “Is something wrong with that?”

“No, just didn’t expect you to meet her true form.”

“Whatever, anyways. Before she showed me her true form, she told me that after all the elements were found, she was gonna meet us and explain our powers. That’s all that happened for me. Your turn Chris,” Aither says.

“Alright, it’s kinda the same for me. I was walking past the woods to my house when I started hearing screaming coming from the woods. I soon learned that a little kid had got attacked by vines. I get the child out of the woods and find myself trapped in the woods. That’s when I started hearing the voice calling my name. Our convo started by me asking how she knew me. She told me that I was just like you three, well, not Adara, no offense.”

“None taken. I also didn’t talk to the person I met,” Adara says.

“True, true. Anyways, then she said that I was exactly like Aither. That’s when I figured out that me and Aither had our encounters at the same time. She told me that she had multiple copies of herself that shared the same mind but different actions. Since Aither didn’t tell you guys her name, I will. Her name is Aadya,” I say.

“Well, hello kiddos.”

A/N: Welp, that’s the end of part 4. How are you guys liking the story so far? If you are wondering when I’m going to introduce the last element, you are going to have to wait one or two more parts. I say that meaning that I don’t know how I’m going to introduce her myself.
