   How Jamie and I met (in EL)
Jamie: Wow! You're actually telling our story!
Me: Well, more or less... It's just a vauge idea for the post readers. *turns to readers*
For your reference: Yuki- Water Elemental (Yumi)
Missy- Fire Elemental (Niffer)
Meaka- Earth Elemental (Eleana)
Whit- Darkness Elemental (Koryu)
Rachel- Air Elemental (Naomi)
Ellie- Metal Elemental (Jen- Shû)
Me/Anja- Lightning Elemental (Rilma)


Jamie wandered away from Missy, who had lost all interest in the new student. As he wandered, his ghost/demon detector began to go hay-wire.

“I knew it!” he cried, and ran into the girl’s bathroom. There stood Omega, a demon-god. As Jamie got ready to capture the ‘ghost’, Missy and I walked in.

“Wow, this is the first time it hasn’t been full of cheerleaders,” Missy commented, quickly glancing around.

“Perhaps they are why.” I had noticed Omega and Jamie. Omega was getting annoyed that Jamie was distracting him from his... ‘business’. Omega swung one arm and hit Jamie. Jamie flew into the wall, and was knocked unconscious.

“Jameson isn’t a demon,” Missy starts, “He’s a norm! Anja, keep him safe until I get back.”

“Where are you going?” I asked.

“To get the others.” Missy ran out to find Yuki, Meaka, Whit, Rachel, and Ellie. I turned to Jamie and tried to wake him up. Omega began to advance.

“You will not harm him!” I cried, jumping between the norm and demon-god. Omega laughed.

“What can you do about it, girl?”

“Plenty.” Electric sparks began flying around my body, as self- defense. Jamie started to come to and heard me shouting at Omega. Also about this time, the others rush in and Yuki throws me my battle costume. (Orange and gold tank top and pants).

“Yuki, we need a protection bubble around the norm,” Missy commanded, changing into her own costume. Yuki created a multi- layer protection bubble around Jamie.

The fight with Omega ensued. Jamie fully came to, and tried to pop his bubbles. The more he popped, the more bubbles took their place. As he looked up, he saw me slam into the wall only a few feet away. He couldn’t see clearly, because of the bubbles, but he could make out colors and shapes, but that was it.

I jumped back into the fight, and we eventually defeated Omega (defeated, not killed which is what we normally do). Yuki allowed all the protection bubbles around Jamie to pop after we changed back into our school uniforms, and he staggered to his feet.

“That was… amazing…” he stammered, “I didn’t see much, but some of the sounds were cool.” He starred at us for a moment. “Who wore the orange and gold? She was hot!”

The 7 of us looked at each other.

“Wh… What are you talking about?” I asked a little too quickly.

“Are you demons?”

“No,” Whit replied. She jerked her thumb to Omega, “THAT was a demon.”

“Not the time, Whit…” Yuki mumbled.

“Whatever… I’m going to find that girl if it’s the last thing I do.” He left the bathroom and the other 6 looked at me.

“Das ist nicht gut…” I whispered in German.

“Translation?” Meaka asked.

“This is not good…”

“What are you talking about?” Missy asked, retaining laughs, “You thought he was hot this morning.”

“Yeah, but I didn’t think he would figure out what we do…” I walked out of the bathroom only to be pulled into a side hallway by Jamie.

“It was you, wasn’t it?” he demanded. “Has to be… You have the most similar figure.” He started to place his hands on my hips. Of course, hardly knowing him, and he was about to touch me, I slapped him.

“Windernatürlich Kreuzung!”

Jamie shook his head clear from the slap.

“Look, Anja, I know… well, think… it was you. In fact, I’m 90-99% sure.”

“Okay, prove it…”

He pointed to the left side of my head, my white streak to be more specific.

“Also…” He pointed to my black, gloved hands.

“Not to mention you’re the only one with a slight German accent in that group of friends of yours.”

‘Where’s everyone at?’ I thought. This was very awkward for me to talk to him about the Elemental business.

“Hey, Anja!” called the voices of the others, “Where you at?” I turned to find them, but Jamie grabbed my wrist.

“Please tell me…” Jamie pleaded. There was something about him that made me stay. Perhaps it was his eyes… a soft golden amber color that sparkled with the want to know.

“Okay… I’ll tell you, but you have to SWEAR not to tell ANYONE.” He crossed his heart.

“Okay, that other boy in the bathroom was a demon-god named Omega…”

“That explains why my detector went weird.”

“Basically, what we do is make sure demons don’t mess with this realm, but stay in their own/ our own. Our actual homes are not here, but in another place called ‘The Realm.’”

He seemed to understand, then again, I’d met boys who were good at acting smart.

“Well, why did my detector act strange when Ellie was around?”

“Which one?”

“The metal ones.”

“I am not able to say.”

“Can’t or won’t say?”

“Yes.”

“One last question…Was it you?”

I thought for a moment. We had been through so much strange stuff in the past few days I’ve been around. Who knew what we might go through with another guy coming into our group...

‘I guess there’s really no harm in telling him…’

“Yes.”

Jamie stood, stunned as the other six found us.

“C’mon, Anja,” said Rachel, “It’s lunchtime!” They pulled me away from him. As we left, I heard Jamie utter the words: ‘I think I’m in love…’
