She got up and stormed at me. I didn't have enough time to react. She brought up a peice of the ground and threw it at me. It hit me straight on the arm and my arm might have been broken. The clouds started to cover the sun outside.

    I looked at her and she was giving me a look to not follow up with my plan. I merged with a shadow and went in for a sneak attack behind her. I swallowed her in darkness. If I didn't get her out in 10 minutes she would die. "Okay Raifuteika you've won".

    I got her out and she was gasping for air. "Good... good game", she said getting back in line. When class ended I was walking back to my locker. Someone bumped my shoulder and something fell. It was Amida's spell book.

    "Why do you-"! It was Clarissa, she covered my mouth. "Ssshh"! She then let go. "Why do you have Amida's spell book"?

    "I found it". "Clarissa tell the truth... where did you get it"? "Fine... I stole it, Amida was powerful and the fire mages don't need better reason to commit more arson"! "That's wrong you should give it back".

    "And Clarissa... how do I know you're telling the truth"? "You'll have to take my word". When I got back to my room I sat at my desk and opened my poitions book. For the past 4 months I'd been working on something to increase my physical skill. Even for a 14 year old I was small.

    Not short, small. Today I had gotten the last thing I needed, essence of a GeoMage(earth mage). Which I had gotten when fighting Terra. I mixed all of my ingredients and had my potion. Before drinking it I had to prepare myself for the worst possible outcome.

    Death. I drank the potion and felt my heartbeat slowing down. "No... please", I thought. My head started to ache and everything went black. When I awoke I was lying on the ground next to the empty bottle my potion was in. My body felt less heavy.

    As I stood up my breathing slowed down. I was still alive. I grabbed onto my desk for support and it broke. "Cool". I lifted my bed into the air and started laughing. 

    I opened up my window and sat on the ledge. I took a deep breathe befoe jumping out. My dorm room was on the 23rd floor. I landed on my feet and felt fine. I jumped all the way across campus and into a tree.

    It worked! I was better... stronger. I saw someone in a black cloak running across campus. Who was it? I followed them around and they went into some black tunnel. I merged with the shadows and walked around.

    There were three mages in there performing what seemed to be dark mage rituals. But none of them were working judging how they most likely weren't dark mages. Ones hand lit on fire, fire mage. She was using it as a torch and was getting ready to leave.

    She turned around straight to me, the light of the fire made the shadows dissapear. I was now visible. She could see me.
