Chapter 4

Aliyah/Keziah's Pov

   After that confession mom and dad started to train me on how to use my powers. Dad said my powers are now awakening that's why my hair turns into blonde, my skin turns pale, I get taller and it's also the reason why maxinne to the end of the cafeteria because of my powers. They're protecting me. 

            *Flashback*

   I was shocked on what dad said. I'm that child? The one he's talking about? Things are more confusing to me but little by little I understand it well. So they're after me because of my power? Funny they're after for nothing. I don't even have power! Wait. I looked at dad.

  "Ahm dad at school i pushed one of my schoolmates and she flew to the end of the cafeteria I don't know what happened, I don't know if I'm the one who did that but I know for sure it's me. They even called me monster after that" I said. They're both shocked on what i said. But eventually it turns into a smile. Okay what are they smiling at I just pushed someone unexpectedly but here they are smiling at me like I did a something good.

  Dad held my hand. "You're powers are awakening princess they're starting to come out. We must train you as soon as possible so that you can control them perfectly" He said while smiling. 

  "How many powers I have?" I asked.

  "Many" He answered back.

  "Like what?" I asked.

  "Like the elements, lightning, light, dark magic and so on. You have everything that's why they wanted to kill you because you're like a threat to them" He said. Hmm I'm that powerful? 

  "Please dad tell me more about my real parents. I want to know more about them" Dad smiled at what I said and started talking.

              *End Of Flashback*

  So here I am training at the backyard. Dad is teaching me how to use my powers.

  "Close your eyes princess, focus and feel the energy inside you when you felt like something's coming out let it go" Dad instructed. So I did what he said. Before I closed my eyes I took a deep  breath and tried to focus. I feel the heat inside me, something's coming out. I let it go. 

  "Princess" Someone called.

  "Open your eyes princess" A woman said. I did what she said. When I opened my eyes I am no longer in our yard I feel like I'm in paradise. I was busy looking around when someone talked behind me.

  "Hello princess" Someone said. I turned around and I saw a 4 beautiful woman and a 2 handsome man. "Thank you for the compliment princess" Said the guy with a black hair. "Welcome to Arcadia the world of Gods and Goddesses. I'm Ether the Goddess of Earth Element" Said the woman who's wearing a green long dress.

  "I'm Aqua, goddess of Water" Said the woman wearing a blue long dress.

  "I'm Aira, goddess of Air" Said the woman wearing a gray long dress.

  "Fairo, god of Fire" Said the man with red hair.

  "I'm David, God of Dark" Said the man with black hair.

  "And I'm Lauren, goddess of Light" Said the woman wearing a white dress. 

  "What am I doing here?" I asked. 

  "You're here to get your powers princess, we will entrust you our powers. But before that you have to prove yourself to us that you're worthy enough to have this kind of power. Each one of us will give you a test, if you passed them all, you will have our power if not then the prophecy might have chosen the wrong child. Do you understand? Now will you accept the test and your fate or you will return to your home?" Lauren asked. I have to do this. My parents sacrifice themselves just to keep me safe so that I can save my kingdom and my people. I will not waste the sacrifice they made. I looked at the gods and goddess with bravery. 

  "I will accept your test and gain your trust gods and goddesses, I will not fail y'all" I said boldly. They all smiled at me. I won't let you down. Mother and father. I promise.

  "Now let's begin your first test" Said Ether and approached me. She held my hand and didn't notice that we are in another place. I looked around we're in front of the entrance of a forest.

  "You will have to get the green diamond inside the of this forest. Be careful there is a dragon guarding that diamond. Goodluck princess" Ether said and vanished. I sighed heavily and enter the forest while walking, I saw a wounded tiger lying on the ground. I tried to get near to him so i can help him but he growled.

  "Don't worry, I won't hurt you. I just want to help you" I reassuring said to him. It seems like he understand so he stopped growling. I approached him and looked at his wound. I looked for a herbal plant and get it. I ripped the hem of my shirt put the herbal in his legs wrapped it with my with cloth.

  "There all done, you should be more careful next time okay little bud?" I said then stood up and wave him goodbye.

  "Thank you princess" A voice said. I stopped and looked at the tiger. But it's no longer there. I just shrugged and continue walking until i reach the cave. I didn't hesitated to enter. It's so dark in here. While walking I noticed something glowing in the front that must be it. But before I could continue walking I heard a growl. I looked at it it's a dragon! This must be the dragon that Ertha's talking about. The dragon blew a green fire. The heck a green fire?! I keep on avoiding it. I run towards the gem and took it. But before I could get out of the cave the dragon blocked me and blew a green fire again but It's good that I avoid it. I saw a vines on the left side of the cage. I use my earth magic to control the vines and tied it up onto the dragon and wrapped it around his legs, hands and mouth which caused him to be tied up and unable to move. 

  I looked at the dragon "Sorry old friend but I have to this" I said to him and touch his nose im about to leave the place when I heard a voice.

  "Please untie me and I will let you get gem and leave this place unharmly" The voice said. I looked at the dragon. Is he the one who's talking? "Yes princess we're talking through your mind. Please untie me" He pleaded. So I did what he said. "Thank you princess. I will be your guardian until the rest of you life. I will serve you until my last breath. I'm Teron call me and I'll be there" He said then he glowed. Blindfolded in excessive light after that I didn't saw the dragon but instead i saw a tattoo on my right arm it's a dragon tattoo. The it vanished like it's not there earlier. I went out to the cave and walked out of the forest. I saw Ertha waiting on exit. I showed her the gem that makes her smile wider.

  "Congratulations princess you passed my test therefore this gem belongs to you" She said happily. The gem float it shrinked and floated towards my necklace. It fits a diamond ring of the necklace as if it really should be placed there. "The gem really belongs to the necklace 5 more test to go princess. Goodluck!" She said and vanished.

  "Princess can I now borrow you?" Someone said. I turned around and saw that it's Aira the goddess of Air. I smiled and nodded. She smiled back and waved his hand and I'm somewhere else again. 

  "We are here in my island where you will do the test that I will give you" She said and held my hand. We teleported on a very high mountain. "You have to climb that mountain and get the gem at the top of that mountain but be careful the climate on that mountain is too cold. You may freeze to death and never return. I will give you this" She gave me a necklace. It's a crystal clear necklace it looks ordinary but I know it's not. "That can help you to from the cold. Goodluck princess" She said and vanished. I looked at the mountain and wear the necklace that Aira gave me. I sighed and began to climb the mountain. Hmm Aira's right this necklace is protecting me from the cold. When I reached the top of the mountain I searched for the gem but I didn't saw anything. I'm about to search again when I saw a wolf looking at me. I looked at him there's a chain attached to his foot. I approached it but he growled. 

  "It's okay i won't hurt you" I said. He seemed to understand so he let me touch his foot. I saw a rock near by so i used it to take the chain off of the wolf's feet and it did! The wolf seems so happy. 

  "You're free now buddy you can go now" I said but the wolf didn't listen he looked at me carefully. I noticed something something is attached to his neck. It's the gem!

  "Hey buddy can I get that gem on your neck? I really need it" I said. The wolf looked at me. I think it's a yes. I took it. 

  "Princess I'm Wolfar your Guardian. Call me and I'll be there" The wolf said and glows and turned into a tattoo in my left arm. I went down the mountain liked what happen earlier the gem was added in my necklace.
