Chapter six

As Alice watched, Charlotte reached to her wrist and tried to pull it off, but the boy saw that and held her hand up to the air, he smiled and said to Charlotte "did you forget my power? Even if you and your little friends are powerful, specifically you and that one." The boy pointed at Alice and saw that she was still awake, he raised an eyebrow and snapped. Charlotte felt a sudden pain in her head and she struggled to keep her eyes open, the last thing she did was that Charlotte struggled free and pulled off the bracelet of her wrist and a raven with red eyes flowed onto her shoulder, her wound healing fast, her cloth turning black, as her eyes turned red.

Alice sits up suddenly and almost falls off her bed, Charlotte is already dressed, she wears a white shirt and a black shorts. Alice's eyes dropped to her wrist and the bracelet that she had seen in her dream was there, the small pendant shining under the fall sunlight. Iris looked up and said something like "Aaaa! donut munster!" Sophia sat up scratching her head, and Alice noticed that her hair was dark green, though it was black. "Bad dream?" Charlotte asked. Alice's eyes widened, "you are, you…" "I don't think it is possible to keep not talking when we are in class, and I don't want people to think I'm stupid any more." Charlotte signed and said, opening the door, "Where are you going?" Alice asked, her sister raised an eyebrow "I was about to wake you so we are not late to the second day of class."

Charlotte was right, she left early and they don't have the same class, but the others are ont that lucky. When they looked at the clock when they left room 403, it was 7:55 and class started at eight. They all used their energy value to add speed to themselves so they wouldn't be late. Will, Iris called out to the bird and rode on it. Alice did not hear a word in class, she is thinking about the dream that she had about Charlotte. Charlotte said she knew Aurelia before and she is in the dream, and who those two boys are, what is that bracelet used for. That monster turns into a boy and she still remembers how he looked, short golden hair, and wore a shirt that had a pattern that changed, like people's feelings. Sometimes it is a sunny beach, then it will change into a rainy day and someone is looking out. Alice knows that if a monster is really powerful, or when their gem on their forehead turns purple, they can turn into human form but why are they fighting them?

After that class, Alice meets Charlotte at lunch. She tries to ask Charlotte about Aurelia but she keeps changing the subject and Alice doesn't get anything out of her. However Charlotte told her that she is not going to be at school after lunch, "What?" Alice asked "where are you going?" "If you need anything from me you can ask Aurelia, she knows." "Why can't you just tell me." Charlotte looked at her for a minute "fine, I'll tell you this," she looked Alice straight in the eyes and said "you have three powers and go see Aurelia today, tell her it is time."

Like Charlotte said, Alice didn't find her anywhere during the martial arts class. Alice saw Aurelia, she always had this feeling, that she also knew Aurelia. Before she could make any decision, the teacher came and announced that class started. Nothing is going right these days, Alice says to herself. 

"Hey, um, Aurelia?" Alice asked when they were leaving "can we talk?"

"You want to know, right?" Aurelia said

"Ya."

"Here, come with me," Aurelia replied, picking up her books, "What did Win… Charlotte said?" 

Alice thought for a minute, "She said that it is time." 

Bam! Aurelia dropped the book and the floor, and stared at it "it's back?" she murmured and turned to Alice "Come with me to the library."

The library is empty with rows and rows of colors of books, but no one is in there. Aurelia placed the books that she was holding onto a shelf. "Ok," she said, "close your eyes." Alice didn't know what else she could do so she closed her eyes, "I'm going to show you your lost memories, don't be scared." 

There was darkness for a moment, then an image formed. Alice saw Charlotte only younger, like three or four, she was wearing a white dress that reached her knees, it had blue snowflakes on it, her hair was down a little curly like the waves. Alice looked around and saw a Mirror and her eyes widened. Alice looks like she is also about three or four. He no longer wears her jeans and T-shirts which she always wears, but instead she is wearing a green dress with peach blossoms. Alice tried to move, she likes what she is wearing, it is just she had never tried it before, its feet, very intimating. 

Alice, Charlotte are not the only ones there, Aurelia is wearing a beige sweater that has leaves of different colors and blue jeans. The boy in her dream is also there, he is wearing a white T-shirt and shorts. His T-shirt has patterns of water on it. They are in a cave, veins dangle everywhere. It looks like the kind of workshop that is only going to appear on TV, things everywhere, shelves of books. Alice is holding a book and sitting on a rock, Charlotte is sitting on a stone that is shaped like a chair and in front of her is a table and books on it, she is writing some kind of note. Aurelia is watering a tree that has a different kind of color of leaves on it. The boy is dangling on the veins, and Alice thinks, like a monkey. 

"So, why did you call us here, Winter and Spring?" The boy jumped down from the veins and said to Charlotte and Alice.

"The king of monsters had appeared," Charlotte said as she drew a big circle on her note book, "not completely formed yet and needed to be destroyed."

"It is in the middle of Arden," Alice said, her body, her brain still processing the whole thing. "Strangely strong this time, it is probably because the humans are having more pollution."

"That is right!" Aurelia said "The only one of us that is getting benefit from that is Summer!"

"Hey!" Summer, the boy argues, "I don't like my water having a bunch of plastic in it too!"

"Stop!" Charlotte, who Alice figured out is winter, shouted, the temperature groped a few degrees, "No matter what, the monster is being fed by an organization, summer we need to stop that and Spring and Autumn, go find information about that monster. Spring, you are now Alice, Summer you are Henry, Autumn you are Aurelia and I am Charlotte, understand?" No one argued.
