The Elementalists: Awakening

This is my first novel, so don't expect too much. I have had this story in my head for a while. Jameson Voddinger, a 15 year old sophomore, has recently lost his mother in an incident, and ever since then he's been distressed, and annoyed. During the first few days at school, some odd things begin to happen. one day it becomes so obvious, his friend Carson Wallingford notices. They both carry the secret, until a man appears in James' house while he and Carson were there. He tells them about the Elementalists Association (EA) and says that James has elemental powers. Can James, Carson and the entire EA society keep their secrets, or will the news kill them with democracy?
