Chapter 10 (Part 1) - Callagarn's First Move

**********************************************************
Ivy ( home after school)

       Ivy's grin was almost elastic as she plopped down on her teal beanbag in her room. Today had gone surprisingly well. Yes, Claire had been her usual evil self, but everything thing else that had happened made up for it. The history test was extremely simple, Chandler had spoken to her a lot after school and people actually wanted to be her friend.
    "Hey, buggy. How's it going?" an annoyingly familiar voice asked. Ivy raised her head to find Ivan smirking at her. She rolled her eyes.
   " Ugh, what are you doing here again? Also, stop calling me buggy," Ivy responded, crossing her arms. Grinning, Ivan jumped onto the purple beanbag opposite from Ivy's and set down his transportation device. This time, it was rose pink crystal, with gold flecks.
   " Come on, buggy it is a great nickname. If you don't like it, I could start calling you muffin. Also, Elistron sent me here to give some items for our warrior training tomorrow," Ivan replied. Suddenly, Ivan clapped and a colour  ( English spelling) changing pouch appeared in his lap. Quickly, Ivan pulled out gloves, a water bottle and gardening tools.
    " Umm, why do I need these?" Ivy questioned, tilting her head quizzically.
    " Elistron will explain tomorrow. Now, I have to go home to bathe Elistron's puppy. Wish me luck buggy, she bites," Ivan remarked, vanishing in thin air.

Next day (school)

      " Okay students, enjoy your lunch. You will be getting back your history tests after lunch," Mrs. Hellin stated as Ivy exited the classroom.
" Hey buggy ,want to walk to warrior training together ?" Ivan asked, walking towards Ivy. School had been really stressful today, there had been so many assignments to do and Ivy just wanted a break.
" Yea, sure," Ivy answered, wiping the sweat off her forehead.
" Hey, Ivy. Do you want to come sit with us for lunch," Mia started, but she paused, staring at Ivan with wide eyes.
" Umm, you okay there, Mia," Ivan asked, scratching his head. Mia just stood there staring at Ivan.
" I think she's shocked, let's just leave her there. Come on, let's go before everyone comes running down the hall," Ivy remarked, beginning to walk. Finally, Ivy and Ivan had reached the restrooms, Ivan going inside the boys' and Ivy going inside the girls'.
" Magic," Ivy whispered, not knowing that Annalise had seen her disappear in the bathroom.

Chamber

"Well, you guys are five minutes late," Elistron stated, staring at Ivan and Ivy sternly.
" Sorry, we ran into a weird situation," Ivy mumbled.
" Yea, that was weird. I've known Mia for years, I've never seen her stare at me like that," Ivan remarked.
" Ok then, Ivy do you have your supplies?" Elistron asked. Nodding, Ivy took the supplies out of her lunch bag and set them on the floor.
Smiling, Elistron picked up the supplies and placed them in separate corners of the room. Ivy looked at Ivan with a baffled look on her face.
" As you know, Callagarn is making his first move on the school next week. It is your job Ivy, as the Hidden Warrior, to stop him from causing damage to the school. Your powers aren't strong enough to defeat him fully as yet, but they will work. Now, I want you to hold the amulet and shout ' Hidden Warrior' and you will transform," Elistron explained.
     Beads of perspiration ran down Ivy's face while one million thoughts whirled in her brain. She was going to transform right now? She didn't feel ready at all.
    Ivy watched as Elistron detached the amulet from the tubes and handed it to Ivy. The amulet felt cold in Ivy's trembling hands.
" Buggy, you can do this," Ivan stated, sounding sincere. Ivy closed her eyes and breathed deeply. She could do it.
" Hidden Warrior!" Ivy yelled.
All of a sudden, Ivy's hair turned into a colour ( English spelling) changing helmet , and she was wearing metallic blue suit with a mask covering her face and the amulet had turned into a circular disk. Ivy looked at herself in awe - she looked like a wizard and a superhero mixed together.
" Wow, this is awesome!" Ivy exclaimed.
" Yes, the outfit suits you perfectly. Now, the disk serves as a base for your magic powers. Place your hand on the disk and think of the power you want to use. I asked you to bring these objects to test your powers. These gloves are magical, and they can survive heat. Your powers should be strong enough to burn them to crisps. To control your water powers, you need to create a massive wave and push the water into this small water bottle. The gardening tools are also magical, and they can destroy any plant. You must use your earth powers to create a plant so deadly and massive, that even the gardening tools can't destroy. Now, begin. Your warrior instincts will help you to do the tasks ," Elistron explained.
     This was crazy! Her legs wobbling, Ivy placed her hand on the disk and thought about her water power. Suddenly, water surrounded her. Ivy twirled and instead of spilling onto the floor,  ( which is what happened when Elistron demonstrated) the water formed into a massive wave. Ivy's eyes widened in disbelief. Raising her hands, Ivy moved the wave around. Concentrating, Ivy formed the water into a ball and held it in her hand. It was extremely heavy, but surprisingly, Ivy could take the weight.
  Beep! The sudden, loud noise caused Ivy to lose her concentration and drop the water ball onto the floor, causing the water to spill everywhere.
   " Sorry, I just got an alert from the SMS. Just say ' Hidden Warrior' again and you will transform back," Elistron stated, taking out  a weirdly shaped object, which seemed to be some type of communication device.
   Quickly, Ivy transformed back, and Ivan reattached the amulet to the tubes. Suddenly, Elistron's face was pale and his eyes widened in fear.
   " What's wrong?" Ivan inquired worriedly.
    " It's the alert. Callagarn is here," Elistron answered, shaking.
