Someone get me butter, im on a roll! XD

Chapter 4

"Heres a good spot to sit" Aki pulled out Suki's chair for her. "Thanks" She said. Aki pulled a chair right next to her and sat. "Well, theres a lot of food here, why not eat up?" Aki got up, walked away, and came back with two plates of food. "I grabbed you some of there amazing Salad. It didnt look good, but I guess it makes you smarter or something like that. I got the hamburger" "What does that do? Make you super strong?" Suki asked. "Nah, just tastes really good." Suki laughed. Aki started laughing with her. "Boy, if we are the ones the Great Vision was talking about, everyone is screwed." Aki couldnt help but laugh some more. "As if! I think that man was insane or something." Suki nodded. "Or maybe he just wanted us to stay for the feast?" She said. "Well, theres the prophet right there." Aki said. "Woah, it is the same guy! Maybe he wasn't insane after all..." Suki stared at the man from afar, and munched on her salad. "It is! Wow, this is creepy." A booming voice came over the crowd: "May I have your attention please!" The Ballroom was instantly silenced. "Ahem. Now then, for those of you who will leave here with an Art, congratulations! You have proven yourself to the Elder, and will start training immediately!" The sound of his voice changed from happy to supportive "For those of you who did not, there is no one else to blame but yourself. I need to talk to the Prophet for a minute to see if there is an ancient among us, so enjoy the food while i do just that." Everyone was now whispering, wondering who it could be, if anyone. Some people were bragging "Its me, i know it! My mom could have been a FireBreather OR an Acumenist!" Whether they did it for attention or if they were that dim witted, we dont know. "WHAT!?!?!?!?!" The booming voice shouted. "ARE YOU SURE!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?" "Well, ok!" The booming voice became very serious. "Ladies and Gentlemen, we are upon a very dark time indeed. The Prophet has just told me some dark news. The Great War will begin, because we have two Ancients in the Ballroom right now. It was thought impossible, but the Great Vision is being completed!" There was a total silence now, and everyone was in total shock. "The scariest part is the fate of the Great Bridge is in the hands of two seven year olds, both of which could not even master their parents Art. They are worthless, useless, deplorable trash shapeshifters!!!" He pointed to Suki and Aki. The booming voice went on, "These No go----" Out of nowhere, a mountain lion roared and pounced onto the speaker. He screamed in pain as the Lion got his revenge. The prophet smiled offstage as Aki turned into a human again. "Useless? Unable to master an Art makes us useless? Well then, how is that for useless?" Suki came down from the table, and stood next to Aki. A gruff voice said, "That speaker learned his lesson, at the price of his life. I can only pray that everyone else's lesson is far cheaper than his was." The prophet had emerged from the shadows and he stood next to Aki and Suki. "These two will train like never before, and when their time is up in 23 years, when there power is at the maximum that it can reach, they will defend the bridge, and they shall win." With that, the man turned and pulled Suki and Aki near him. He covered them with his cloak, and then he disappeared with them.
