*** 3 NEW Chapters! ***

15. Jaycob- An Epic Battle Begun


Wind and Electricity vs Earth. It's hard to tell who the winner will be, but I'm as eager to find out as anybody. I grinned inwardly as I thought of the massacre that was about to take place. I mean, it's two powerful elements against the weakling element that Joseph controlled. He wouldn't voice his taunts out loud like Kyle and Joseph did. He would just let his tornados speak for him.

"Five... Four..." Joseph counted as we all stepped away from each other, back to back, like in the old cowboy movies. "Three..." And when he got to zero, the massacre would begin. "Two..." Almost there.. "One.....Go!"

Immediately I had to dodge to the right as the ground below me began to rumble. Looking back I saw a giant stone pillar where I had stood, and it seemed that wasn't the last of them, as Joseph was began raising his arms, controlling the earth beneath us. With each raise of his arm, another pillar would appear where I was standing. I had to keep jumping around to avoid being tossed around by the pillars. I looked towards Kyle for help, or a distraction at the very least, but he was busy avoiding pillars as well.

We'll never win if this keeps up.... I thought as I began concentrating on wind, but quickly had to jump again. At that point, I couldn't take it any longer, I just summoned up and released all the wind I could at that moment before I jumped. Fortunately, the breeze directly into his face was enough to break his concentration on the pillars. I saw Kyle send a bolt of electricity at him, which Joseph barely dodged in time. I sent a gust of wind to his legs, enough to trip him, while Kyle readied another electric bolt.

As Joseph struggled to get to his feet, Kyle zapped him.

It was an awesome sight, Joseph's body flashed as he was shocked, and he flew back twenty feet. I think now he sees how serious this battle really is, and how painful our powers really- I grunted as a stone pillar rose into my gut, causing me to double over in pain. I saw Kyle on the floor beside me. A pillar must've got him too..

I looked at Joseph, so far away, still struggling to get to his feet. We all got up at the same time, stared at each other, wondering who would make the first move.

Kyle struck first, sending a bolt of electricity at Joseph, who dodged to the right and created a stone pillar, aiming at Kyle, who jumped over it. My turn, I thought as I made a gust of wind blow him closer to us, to make it harder for him to dodge from our attacks.

Kyle ran towards him, avoiding every pillar Joseph shot at him. I then fired a blast of wind at his legs to trip him, which allowed Kyle to send another powerful bolt of lightning straight to the face. The shock exploded, raising a load of dust and clouding our view of what we thought would be Joseph’s mangled body.

When the dust cleared, however, we merely found a stone pillar facing us, and loud gasping from behind him. Kyle readied another lightning bolt in his hand, but I stopped him from attacking, knowing Joseph was actually in trouble.

We ran towards him, “Are you okay?” I asked in worry. I didn’t want to lose a powerful rival like him yet, even if I knew I was stronger.

He nodded once and took a few deep breaths, “Asthma” he gasped out when he could.

Kyle rolled his eyes and mumbled “Chicken”

Joseph glared up at him as he took out his inhaler, “Don’t you have asthma too?”

Kyle stuck his tongue out, “Yeah, but I don’t use it as an excuse”

I sighed and rolled my eyes as I turned to stare off into the distance. This powers thing was cool, but why us? Does anyone get a random power from touching it? I wonder if anyone else from school will get… He widened his eyes in realization. He turned to face them “Do either of you know how to get home from here?”

He groaned as the replies were blank stares and utter silence. “We should follow Chris’s tracks, he might’ve found a road or something.”

Kyle and Joseph nodded as they followed their apparently new leader.


16. Letty- The Plight of the Light

It had taken a while (and a lot of my savings) but I had finally convinced my hacker type ‘friend’ to lend me a tracking device type thing. It seemed incredibly useful, able to find and home in on any mobile cell phone number.

“Thanks a lot!” I said as I smiled brightly at the device.

Jose waved me off and returned to his computer, hacking it or doing something complicated that I wouldn’t understand, “Just don’t break it, now go away, I’m busy”

I hmph’ed and stuck my tongue out at him, even though he wouldn’t see, then turned to use my newfound tracking device type thing. I typed in Chris’s phone number, and it seemed to point towards the desert near the edge of town. I shook my head in disbelief and retyped the phone number. Why would he be in the desert? He hates the sun! It showed the same location. I typed in Cassie’s phone number, and sure enough, it pointed at her house. So it’s not broken… I thought. I sighed as I got into my car and sped off towards the desert.

---------A while later----------

The device said the phone was straight ahead, about a kilometer away. Soon enough, I saw a figure in the distance. As I sped closer and closer, I realized there were three distinct figures, just kinda standing there. I couldn’t tell if any of them were Chris, but none of them looked like him. Sure enough, everyone but Chris was there: Kyle, Jaycob and Joseph.

“What’d you guys do to Chris?” I demanded.

They blinked in surprise, then Joseph spoke up “We’re looking for him right now”

Kyle spoke next “How did you know how to find us?”

Then Jaycob “And how did you know Chris was with us?”

She widened her eyes then turned away as she blushed, “I, um, it was luck!”

Joseph hmm’ed for a second then picked up an object nearby, “Hey it’s Chris’s phone!”

They all turned to look at her, each with a raised eyebrow, which made her blush even more and turn away again, “Anyways, let’s go find Chris! Now do you guys want a ride or not?!” She said as she got into her car.

They looked at each other. Kyle shrugged, then got in the vehicle, followed quickly by Joseph and Jaycob.

She turned on the AC then looked back to them, “What are you idiots doing out here anyways?”

“Hmmm….. Can we trust her?” asked Kyle.

“Considering the fact she’s the only one of us who knows how to get home, I’m thinking yeah” replied Jaycob.

“We’re here because of this” said Joseph as he pulled out the crystal.

“Huh, I forgot you had that. I suppose it’s a good thing I didn’t explode you then” grinned Kyle.

I ignored his comment, taking the stone in my hand. Immediately I felt a surge of power flowing into my body, through my very soul, waves of immense strength which captivated me. As my mind began to float back down, I felt something else flowing within me. It was different than the aqueous power from before. This felt so ancient and powerful, as if it had a mind and soul of its own…

A voice then spoke to me, in the form of an immensely bright light “Letty…. You are the purest of heart whose hand has graced this magical crystal… however, you are not my true vessel…. My true vessel is the human whose heart has been tainted by evil…. The evil of my twin brother…. Dark….. You must take me to my true vessel so that I may extinguish the flames of darkness from within her and free her from the Dark…. You alone can complete this task….. The fate of the world rests in your hands…..”

I had been silent until now, in disbelief of everything which had just occurred in the past few seconds, but as I regained my power of speech, I asked the voice “How am I supposed to do any of what you said, I don’t even know what’s going on!”

The voice seemed to shake its head, “All will be revealed to you in time…. For now, just find the vessel of the power of Psychic… take him to the house of the one named Josh…. He is the vessel of Darkness and must be defeated…. He has tainted the innocent mind of his sister, named Cameron, who is my vessel…. She must be saved…. You are the only one who can save her, and the rest of the world…. Go now… find the one named… Nolberto… the vessel of Psychic…. Only he has the power to defeat Dark…..”

“Nuh, Nolberto?” I asked timidly.

The voice nodded and suddenly released my mind, which caused me to pass out and slip into unconsciousness.


17. Kyle- The Vessel of the Power of Psychic

“I don’t know what’s wrong with her; she keeps muttering about vessels, the light, random shit.” I said.

Joseph sighed and drove on, using Letty’s car. She had passed out shortly after gaining her power. I guess some people just can’t take it. He shrugged, then exclaimed triumphantly, “Civilization!”

Finally we started seeing some modern age buildings, like Walmarts, after traveling around so long in the desert. We passed a MacDonald’s and cheered, “Whooo!”

“What’s all the commotion?” Letty said dizzily as she began to get up and rub her eyes.

“Ahoy matey! Land ho!” I shouted.

“Chips ahoy!” Jaycob seconded.

“Shut up you idiots” Joseph growled back, then turned to Letty, “You passed out earlier, when you touched the crystal.”

She blinked, then suddenly widened her eyes in realization, “The vessel of the power of Psychic! Go to Nolberto’s house!”

“Huh what why?”

“Just do it!” she yelled.

Joseph then quietly began to drive towards Nolberto’s house.

“God she’s scarier than Joseph..” I muttered.

“I heard that.” Scowled Letty. “You guys don’t know what’s at stake here, the fate of the world is in our hands.” She then explained what the light had told her as best she could.

“This sounds kinda…. Epic.” I grinned.

Letty rolled her eyes. “Hey guys, we’re here” called Joseph from the driver’s seat.

Jaycob frowned for a second, “How do you know where Nolberto lives?”

“I live near here, remember? You do too!”

“I know that, but I never knew Nolberto lived around here too. Weird.”

He sighed and rolled his eyes before walking up the path to his house. “His house is nothing too special.” he commented randomly.

Letty was the one to knock on his door, but received no reply. “Must not be home. Any of you guys know his phone number?”

“Yeah, why?” I asked.

“I can track cell phone numbers, now tell me what it is.”

I raised my eyebrow but did as she ordered.

“He’s still at school, it says”

“Oh shit! Chinese Yoyo club! There was a meeting there this afternoon!” I exclaimed.

“I’m guessing that means you know where to find him?” Letty asked. I nodded in response.

“Then let’s go!” said Joseph as he ran back into the car.

Chinese yoyos are awesome, but if I had a choice, I’d pick this powers situation over it any day. Sorry yoyo club mates. I shrugged as I got in the car. We then sped back towards the school. It isn’t too far away, maybe I’ll get some time to practice.

*****ALL NEW CHAPTERS!!!*****

Okay this time, I'm for really, it's an ALL NEW chapter never before seen before today, except by me, and so its new and so you must read >:D

Notice: Some people may take offense to what is written here, and to those people I say my bad >.> Now onwards to story XP

PS. This is mostly just filler >.>

13. Letty- Phones Are Ever So Useful

I looked around, noticing that some of the class were missing. Especially a certain boy...
Counting up the people who were missing, I found Chris, Kyle, Joseph, Jaycob and Josh, all gone. I kinda knew them a little bit, but was especially concerned with Chris, who never ditched and was never late for class. With a sudden urge to find him, I decided to search for him after school.
As the bell sounded three thirty, I hurried out of the class and out of the school to look for him. If he's ditching with the others...
After borrowing a friend’s phone, I texted him.

Wher R U? (Letty)

A few minutes later, I got an answer.

Hi Letty, and umm.. I rly don’t kno.

My brow furrowed in suspicion as I replied.

Wht R U talkin bout? O.o

U wouldnt believe me if I told U. Lets just say a bunch of stuff happened and now idk where I am o.o

Whos with U?

Kyle, Jaycob, Joseph

Hmph, I knew it. Before I could ask if he was ditching, he sent another text.

Umm, i g2g, cya l8r, serious sht goin on atm, i rly in trouble

You bet you're in trouble; with ME. I tried to text him again, but he wouldn't answer. I need to find him... Ahah! After returning the phone, I ran back into the school, looking for a certain hacker type person. He had a history of hacking things, and I was sure he could track Chris's phone. Well, for the right price.
 
14. Chris- Captured
 
I walked around in a general westwards direction, following the sun, which was slowly making its way down to the horizon. After a long while I finally found the road, and I also happened to recieve a text message. It was from Letty, wondering where I was. I replied that I didn't know, and after a little while of texting her, I saw a truck approaching, and it was pretty big, and pretty armored. And it seemed to heading right towards- JUMP!
I jumped at the last second as the fast moving vehicle attempted to run me over. Just barely missed me... Got my pants all dusty now. I growled as I texted Letty one last time, then pocketed my phone and readied a fireball. I was planning on hitting it as it zoomed away, but it actually turned around to face me now. This guy is obviously trying to kill me, so I'm not responsible if I blow him up. It charged towards and I hurled my fireball right into its windshield, but it just went right through the fire.
I readied another fireball, this time aiming at its wheels. If I can't blow it up, I can at least disable it. But just then, I heard another truck coming at me from the other direction. The first truck took advantage of this distraction and quickly netted me. As I struggled to get free, the net electrified me and easily subdued me.
Now only semi-conscious, the men jumped out of the back of the truck and tossed me in. The last thing I saw was the symbol Binetics Corp. before I fell into deep unconsciouseness.

**ALL NEW**

Sorry for the big capital letters and stars >.> But yeah, its a sort of kind of brand new chapter! :D After 9 and 10 would be the Joseph- Stones, crap whatever aisle, where he meets the three main characters and gets his powers. Now we've got the strongest elements under our control, Fire, Electricity, Wind, and Earth. So we've gotta have a fight to see who's better <.< Before i spoil the rest, just read

(PS. We don't get to the fight yet, it's just kinda talk >.>)


12. Kyle- Relocated

Chris grinned as he patted the newcomer Joseph on the back, “Thanks for getting us out of there, bud.”

Joseph nodded in response, then held up the crystal sphere, “This thing is awesome.” He brought up a small pillar of stone, lightly grinning as he whispered to himself, “I got Earth, and the Jaycob guy has Wind...”, then turned to me and Chris, “What’re your guys’ powers?”

Chris merely conjured up a fireball in his right hand and tossed it onto Joseph’s stone pillar, starting an unnatural fire atop it. Joseph nodded again in awe then turned to me, “How bout you?”

I grinned as I snapped my fingers and sent a bolt of electricty at the flaming stone pillar, effectively exploding it in a burst of light, "Looks like Thunder trumps Fire."

Chris scoffed, "You wish, Fire beats all your powers."

Jaycob exclaimed, "Wind puts out your Fire!"

"Ever heard of fanning the flames?" he stuck his tongue out.

"Stop bickering like little kids. It's obvious Earth can destroy all your powers; Sand puts out Fire, Rock absorbs Electricity, and Stone resists Wind. So hah!"

"You wanna try that on a more personal level?" I said, grinning evilly, "I'm not sure your body could absorb Electricity for too long."

Jospeh laughed, "I'd just bury you."

Jaycob chimed in, "Not if I distracted you."

I grinned at Jaycob for the backup, then turned to Chris, "You joining in on the Jospeh massacre?"

He waved a hand at me as he turned away and began texting, "One minute"

I rolled my eyes and sighed heavily as I turned towards Joseph again, "So me and Jaycob versus you. You sure it's fair?"

He shook his head, "You nead way more guys on your team for it to be fair."

I scoffed and grinned as I got into battle position, "Let's just get this over with."

As we were about to begin our completely harmless war between elements, Chris spoke up, "Uh hey guys? Before you begin this massacre thing, where exactly are we?"

I blinked. Crickets chirped in the distance, although it was midday. A collective "Umm...." was the eventual answer.

He sighed and nodded, "I'll catch you guys later, I gotta go look around for some kinda landmark or street or something."

We turned back to each other, "Think we should go help?" asked Joseph.

I nodded, "As soon as we're done here."

"Bring it on" Jospeh grinned.

And brought it hath been.

The New Chapters 9 and 10

I tweaked and edited nearly All of the chapters a little bit, but the changes aren't really noticeable until chapter 9, and especially the completely new chapter 10. After 10 would be a slightly edited 11, the one where Joseph found the group for the first time, via the bathroom elevator. The story so far is that my character went right and got Fire powers, Kyle and Jaycob went left, and ended up captured, and Joseph's eartquake of doom in the bathroom part already happened, though he hasn't appeared again yet. So this is right after "Chris- An Inferno Is Born", where i got my powers (also slightly edited, but not much different than the original)
So enjoy.


9. Jaycobb- The Wind is Awakened

I heard a loud rumble, shaking the table I lay on. As I attempted to get up, I noticed I was completely strapped to it, unable to even move my head. From what I could see, there was another kid on a table beside me, and a huge machine in front of me. A man was frantically pressing buttons on it, and alarms rang throughout the room. I could hear the man grumbling to himself, "Need to avoid system meltdown... Would destroy the whole machine... Somebody must've taken the crystal... Can't work without it... Master will be most displeased..."

Suddenly, I heard an explosion, and saw blasted metal debris fly across the room. A large chunk of metal knocked out the mad scientist guy, Hope Frankenstein hasn't come back to kill his creator... But then I saw him, surrounded in flames. I should've completely scared, but instead I felt immense relief. That guy looked so cool... After freeing the other guy, he walked over to me, which is when I noticed they were the two students I was following earlier! After removing the straps, I got up and looked around me. It was obviously some kind of experimentation room, including a giant mirror wall, which I could only guess was a one way window.

"Thanks, man, I owe you one." I said to the fire-wielding cool guy.
He grinned and nodded, "Don't mention it. What's your name?"
"Jaycobb" I responded.
He nodded "I'm Chris, this is Kyle" and gestured towards the other guy.

Suddenly the alarms, which had stopped after the explosion, began ringing once again. Soldiers rushed into the room from the previously exploded opening and began shooting at us. Immediatly we ducked down, with the fire guy occasionally shooting fireballs back at them. Beside him was a peculiar-looking crystal sphere. I picked up the curious object and began examining it. I saw my face in the sphere, which was suddenly replaced by a strong breeze. Suddenly, I felt power surging into my body, flowing through me. As i aimed my palm up, I could feel the wind rushing out of my hand. That's when I grinned.

I stood up, knowing bullets were coming at me. And then I did a Neo, completely stopping all of the bullets in midair, then dropping them to the floor. The soldiers stopped shooting and merely gaped at me with wide eyes. I grinned brighter as I shot a blast of air at them, knocking them all off their feet, then looked to my new comrades.
"Let's go!" I yelled to them as I ran out of the room, before the soldiers could recover.

We came out to a hallway, and quickly chose to go right, due to Chris's incessant nagging about it being the "right" way or something. Though Kyle seemed to agree with him. I could only hope that this was truly the "right" way.

10. Kyle-Thunderstorm Appears

"Really, right is always the 'Right' way. If you go left, then you're going the wrong way, because it's not right. Kyle here knows all about that, doesn't he, Kyle?" said Chris as we continued walking down the hallway.
"I didn't even choose right, you said we had to split up, or some shit like that." I replied in irritation.
"Details, details" scoffed Chris.
Jaycob groaned from beside him, "Please stop ittt, you two're giving me a headache!"
"Alright fine, let's talk about you. How'd you get caught up in this mess anyways?" questioned Chris.
Jaycob hesitated a bit as he responded, "Umm.. well.. yeah.. about that.."
Chris rolled his eyes and demanded, "C'mon, spill it, Mr. Jaycob."
"I followed you down the underground path from the school." he said.
Chris laughed softly as he raised an eyebrow, "Oh really? Well, you sir, Mr. Jaycob, are indeed an idiot."
Jaycob scoffed, "No more an idiot than you" and grinned.
Chris grinned back, but before he could come up with a witty response, there was a loud rumbling.
Which reminded me... "Hey guys, can I see the crystal? I asked them.
"For what?" asked Jaycob, who was carrying it right now.
"Just to see if I get any powers. Whatever's making this rumbling noise is big, and you're gonna need as much power as you can get."
Jaycob nodded and passed the crystal sphere to me. As soon as I grasped it, I could its power rushing into me. I felt a shock in my hand, a little tingle which soon crawled up my arm and around my body before flowing into me. I could feel the new power inbued in me, and it was a lot more than a tingle. As i snapped my fingers, I created a spark. A spark of electricity. Awesome, i thought. And it probably would've been awesome-er if the ground hadn't kept rumbling under my feet. I felt dirt falling from above me, and as I looked up, I noticed the ceiling was quite ready to crush us.
As we jumped out of the way, we noticed something in a porcelian color. I couldn't believe my eyes, but it was a bathroom stall, which was still hovering slightly above the ground. After a few seconds, it landed on the ground with a loud thunk! I was completely and utterly in shock.

Funny Little Extra (FLE) 1- A Little Change of Destiny

I whistled happily as I strolled down the school hallway. I continued strolling down the hallway 'til I saw a young man, Joseph, whom I noticed was not carrying a hall pass.

"I'm sorry about this, son, but could you go back to class and ask the teacher for a hall pass? Tell 'em the principal sent you"

He nodded quietly and went back to his classroom. I smiled at the obedience of my students. Suddenly, I felt a rumbling in my gut. Sounds like potty time.

I hummed happily as I walked into the bathroom and opened one of the stalls. Before I could sit down, the stall door closed, by itself. I tried to open it, but it was stuck. And then the ground itself was rumbling loudly. That's when the stall began to move, similar to an elevator, but a lot more rumbly-er. I screamed for help as it moved down, straight down through the ground. I closed my eyes tightly and began counting to three repeatedly, while muttering to myself, "If I can't see her, she can't see me, if I can't see her, she can't see me, if I can't..."
--------------
I walked back to the bathroom after getting a pass from my teacher. As I walked into the room, I noticed one of the stalls completely missing, with only a hole in the ground where it should be. I shrugged and used the one next to it, then whistled happily as I washed my hands and walked out of the room.

(Doo da doo dle Yup. I dunno >.>)

Kyle- I Went the Wrong Way [Edited]

Darkness. More darkness. Darkness was all I could see. I tried to remember what had happened, and when this darkness had started, but I was unable to. Suddenly, the darkness disappeared, replaced by a blinding light. When my vision returned, I found myself in a heavenly garden, surrounded by a bright shining aura. There were a group of kids running around, having fun, completely unaware of my presence. As I looked closely at one of them, I noticed he seemed redder than the rest. Upon further inspection, I realized he was on fire! At that moment, the dream ended, but the last thing I noticed was incredibly odd.
The flaming kid extremely resembled Chris.

A new light shone upon me, though this one did not seem heavenly at all. My memory was slowly coming back as my eyes re-dilated to the new light. I remember now.. Me and Chris had decided to go our separate ways in order to cover more ground... but when I reached a ladder going downwards, I was ambushed and drugged. But where was I now?

I tried to look around, but my head was strapped to the metal bed that held me. My arms were both restrained as well. I could see the room clearer now; apparently I was hooked up to some kind of machine. There was also another kid beside me, tied to his bed as well. Suddenly, a man stepped into my field of view. I heard him chuckle darkly. “Your powers will soon be mine... you fool. Hehehe..”
