Elemental Magic Chapter 1 *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
It was a busy morning at the duke's citadel. Lady Sandreline fa Toren ,also known as Sandry to her friends, was up at the crack of dawn preparing the citadel for the ball the duke was hosting. She was in the middle of trying to decide what exactly the duke should wear when a young man came in with a long look on his face. It was Pasco Acalon. A dancing mage who was Sandry's student.
"Lady Sandry why do I have to go to this ball? I'm not a noble."
"How many times do I have to tell you Pasco you have to go because you are my student. Besides I think you have enough control over your powers to dance without anything bad happening."
"You mean I can actually dance without you having to ward me. He asked with his eyes wide with excitement.
"Yes." Sandry replied silently laughing as Pasco did a small dance right there. Suddenly all the objects in the room started to levitate. "Pasco." she said warningly.
"Whoops." he then did another few steps and everything that was floating in the air came down.
"Just be careful and don't lose your concentration. Now run along I have to finish this."
"Yes Lady Sandry." and left the room.
Sandry sighed and looked around the room her eyes landed on a small treasure chest on her desk. She got up and opened it. Inside were some of her most treasured possessions. Some ribbons, seashells, all the letters she received from her friends. and on other thing. It was a circle of thread with four equally spaced lumps.
To some one who could not see magic it would have looked liked a normal circle of thread. But to someone who could see magic it glowed brilliantly with the magic of Sandry and her four friends.
Trapped under the ground during an earthquake Sandry was forced to weave together her magic with the magic of Briar, Daja, and Tris her three houesmates. This combination of magic resulted with the four of them the ability to mind speak with each other and a little mixing of their magics. (A/N: I know this paragraph is confusing)
Sandry let out another long sigh as she ran a finger over each lump representing each of her friends. It has been almost a year since they left to go study in new places. Suddenly she went back to the lump that glowed green in her eyes. It was Briar's lump. She noticed the vine that connects Briar's magic to his lump was a lot shorter than the rest. In fact it looked as if he was right out side the city.
Sandry let out a yell and screamed BRIAR through the string of magic that connected them.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* (The same morning out side the city)
"OK Evvy just concentrate and bring light to this crystal." Briar was sitting on a low wall just out side of Summersea attempting to pursued his student Evvy to make a crystal he bought at the market last night glow in rainbow colors. "Now I know you can do this just concentrate."
"I will just tell me why I'm doing this. I thought we were finished with light crystals three months ago."
"We are done with bringing light to crystals. I just want you to do this for a gift for a friend."
"OK." Evvy grumbled and then tuned her concentration on to the crystal.
They sat there for a few minutes then Evvy held up the crystal for Briar to inspect. He reached out his hand to take the crystal from her when Sandry's voice came through there magical link. This startled him so much he fell right off the wall he was sitting on. He ended up falling flat on his face at Evvy's feet. Evvy just stood there staring at him shocked then started laughing at him hysterically.
SANDRY! did you have to go and scream like that you just made me look like a fool in front of Evvy. Briar mentally yelled at Sandry while getting up of the ground.
Sorry. She replied. I just couldn't believe you were so close. Why didn't you tell me you were coming home early.
Well I wanted to surprise you.
Oh. You have to come over. There's some thing I want to show you.
Sure me and Evvy should be there in three hours. We just have to finish what we were working on.
What were you doing. Let me see.
No! Briar yelled and quickly covered his eyes before Sandry could see the crystal Evvy still had in her hand.
What? Sandry asked in a questioning voice.
It's a surprise. I'll show it to you when we get to the citadel.
OK. then she cut of their link.
"Whew. That was close." Briar said to no one in particular.
"What was close, Pahan Briar?" questioned Evvy. Speaking up after watching Briar fall into mud for no apparent reason. Then covering his eyes with his hands for no reson as well.
"Sandry almost found out about her gift."
"Oh so this is a gift for Lady Sandrilene." Evvy said. She new all about Sandry, Daja, and Tris from Briar's constant comparisons with her and them.
Briar knowing he said to much just said to her "Come on we had better start walking now if we expect to get there in time." With that said he took the crystal from Evvy, put it in a special leather bag and started walking.
