1 the awakening

It was finally the day that she had been waiting for, every child knew that their magic would awaken on the day they turned 5 and being the youngest in her year Alexandrea could no longer hold her excitement. For today she would be able to join some of her friends again in their representative magical school.

she had always been a calm child but today she was brimming with energy as she made her way to get breakfast. her father marcus was a well known lightning battle mage that had made his way through the army before settling down with his wife mira who was a powerful ice mage (a subclass of water magic) back in her serving days. had already started making eggs and toast so told her to set the table and go wake her mother up so they could leave as soon as possible.

As they began the drive to the awakening centre Alexandrea couldn't help but nervously fidget wondering what kind of element she would get, in her eyes her father was the most amazing person in the world so she would want the lightning element most of all but she would be happy with ice too, her mother seeing this kept trying to comfort her and encourage her telling alexandrea that she would be happy with whatever element was awakened and to try not to worry so much because no matter the outcome they would love her just as much as before.

Just as she finished telling her this they arrived at the centre and Alexandrea quickly rushed inside not being able to wait a moment longer. Usually people would have to wait in line for a while before they could enter but her parents had set up an appointment in advance with their military connections so they could go straight in to the assessment room.

Alexandra walked into to the room a whirlwind of emotions in her head growing stronger with every step towards the clear ball in the centre of the floor. Just put both hands on the sphere and wait your element will come the employee said to her a reassuring smile on his face. slowly Alexandrea began approaching the ball again raising her hands as she did so.

The world seemed to stand still to the young girl the moment her hands touched the ball as her vision faded and she heard muffled voices in the background. Two distinct voices appeared in her head, one brought a calm sense of warmth the other a cool feeling of authority but both radiating power

Voice 1"so this will be our saviour then?"

Voice 2"it would seem so yes as much as i hate the idea of being controlled by such a weak being"

Voice1"she will not be weak for long learn some patience"

Voice 2"if you say so, let us leave now she is starting to wake again"

Coming back into consciousness Alexandrea looked at the awakening orb one last time confused at the colours before her, a perfect split of black and white filled the orb confusing her she hadn't heard of the orb showing those colours before only :red,green,blue,purple and clear what was going on.
