Hidden Powers ✔️

Chapter 7

Couple of weeks have passed by with me training with Henry. We've done hand-in-hand combat, sword fighting, and boxing. I haven't notice until now on how much more built I became. I am so proud of myself.

I've also been spending time with Elliot, Sam, and Robert. All of them are really great to hang out with. Especially since they've been showing me how they use the elements. I actually found Robert's more fascinating, for obvious reasons. One being that I was born on the Fire planet. He taught me that one of the most important things in controlling fire, is concentration. If I allow any distractions to interfere, I won't be able to do anything. That was what everyone told me when they were teaching me their elements.

Lately, I've been showing signs that my powers are coming since my birthday is next week. If I get slightly angry, something would set on fire. If I too excited, the winds will become uncontrollably harsh. If I'm really sad or a tears slips out, it would start rain like cats and dogs followed by a thunderstorm. Lastly, if I'm in pain, physically, then an earthquake is likely to happen. My emotions has easily gotten out of control, and I'm stuck in my room until further notice. Great. Just great. What gets even worse, is that I can't train with Henry anymore. It makes me even more sad with that thought in my mind.

I didn't even notice someone saying my name until I looked up.

"Hey Elliot." I said. I pulled up knees to chest and buried my head into it.

"Hey...what's the matter?" He asked.

"I really have no idea how to answer that. How would you feel if you're the one being stuck in your room for days, and knowing that your emotions can cause damage around you?" I snapped but immediately regretted it.

He looked down with a sympathetic look on his face.

"I-I'm sorry, I didn't mean to go off on you like that."

"It's okay, I didn't expect you to be all happy and all..."

I took a glance at the window and it was raining outside. It has been like that for a few days. I looked back at Elliot and tried changing the subject. "So...what's up?"

"I was actually hoping that you come with me into the city." He had a pleading look in his eyes.

"Really?" I felt myself getting happy.

"Yeah...but if only you want to.."

"Sure! Just let me get dressed."

"Alright."

"Wait...is it okay for me to being doing this?"

"I'm sure it is. But you have me, right?" He asked raising an eyebrow, smirking at me.

"I guess." I shrugged and took a quick shower. I picked out a bright red shirt and black jeans, with a black leather jacket and my black boots. I let my hair down and brushed it so it won't look crazy. Satisfied with what I have, I went to the front of the castle where Elliot was waiting. His hair has grown a little making it kind of difficult to see his gray eyes. He was wearing a black shirt with a gray sweater and black jeans.

When I walked outside, I notice it stopped raining and the Suns was shining through the clouds that was now, scattered out.

"Well, at least it stopped raining." He said then winked at me.

I just shook my head and realize something very different. "Um..Elliot?"

"Yeah?"

"D-Did you get taller?"

He shrugged, "I guess so.."

I thought to myself, did everyone else grow? Did Henry grow? Or maybe I shrunk. Is that even possible?? I laughed softly at my crazy theory.
