I slipped back into consciousness but didn't want to open my eyes. It felt like I was in a bed, a pretty comfortable one at that. I didn't know anything else though.
I finally decided to open my eyes and had to close them right back. The lights in this room were too bright. I reopened my eyes and blinked several times to adjust them. I looked to my right and smiled to see my two girls passed out in the chairs next to my bed.
"They were quite worried about you." said a deep voice to my left.
I looked that way and had to stop myself from gasping out loud. The one of the most handsome guys I have ever seen was looking at me. He had green/grey eyes and dark brown hair that was almost black. It was styled in such a way that a little fell over his eyes and the rest was slightly tousled. His cheek bones were high, his chin was rounded and his lips were so full. I had to stop looking at him just to think straight. When I looked back at him he was smirking and my mind screamed PLAYER! Crys should be able to handle him. I thought to myself. She had tamed a few players in her life.
"They were huh? Not surprised, we've been friends since forever so we worry about each other a lot. " I said to him, my voice a little hoarse from lack of use. He must have noticed because he reached behind himself and grabbed a glass of water. He reach out to me and I grabbed it from him.
I took a few sips and then sat the glass down on the bedside table to my right. I glanced once more at my friends and thought it would be a good time for them to realize I was awake.
I reached back and pulled one of the pillows from behind my head. The guy raised an eyebrow but said nothing. I swung my arm back and threw the pillow with all my strength. It hit both Rose and Crystal in the head and they jumped up out of their seats at the same time, looking around like crazy people.
Me and the guy busted out laughing at the expressions on their faces. Crystal snapped her head over at me for a second, anger in her eyes before I saw that anger change to recognition as she realized I ws finally awake.
"Sapphire! You're awake!" They both screamed at me as they rushed to hug me.
"Obviously." I said laughing at them. "Ow!" I exclaimed after Rose hit me on the shoulder.
"Don't you ever scare us like that again!" She said to me
"I'm sorry jeesh, I don't even know what happened." I said. I looked up at Crystal only to find her flirting with Mr. Gorgeous. A cleared my throat to get their attention but they didn't even look at me.
"Crys" I said and she jumped looking back over at me. I just shook my head and looked back at the guy.
"I'm sorry I never actually got your name?" I said, wanting to thank him for helping me.
"Mason Holt. Don't forget it." He said to Crystal with a wink. She smirked back at him before turning to me.
"We don't know what happened to you either." She began. "All of sudden you were floating and you were glowing and your eyes were a different color and then everything stopped and you fell."
"Sounds like you got your powers in." Mason said, looking up from making sure I was completely ok.
"Well what does that mean? What are my powers?" I asked.
"You are an elemental." A voice came from the doorway. Professor Drake stepped in the room and looked at Mason.
"Everything is alright, she should be good to go." He said and started walking out of the room. Before he left he turned back around at did the 'call me' sign towards Crystal. She just smiled at him.
After he left Professor Drake turned back to me and began to explain what an elemental was.
"An elemental is a person with powers having to do with the elements. It is somewhat rare to have an elemental. Most often if it does happen one will only get one element as your power. We have only a few children here elements for powers. What is different about you, Sapphire, is not only do you have more than one, you have all four. However, if my guess is correct, you might even have the 5th power of spirit as well."
I sat in silence trying to let this all sink in. So, so far, apparently I have magical powers, and not only that but I have freaking rare magical powers. Then to make it worse I was the rarest of them all by having four possibly all 5 elemental powers.
"Well, what about Crystal and Rose? How do they fit into this?" I asked, not wanting to be by myself on this one. Yeah, I sounded selfish but Crystal and Rose were like my rock. I knew that if I had them to help I'd be able to get through a lot.
"If my guess is correct about your friends, they have 2 elemental powers each. Now which ones they have I am not sure." the Professor said. "I think I will leave you now, just so you all can get settled in. You three have a lot to process after all, with everything I just told you".
You don't say...I thought to myself. I started getting up and out of the bed. Wincing at how sore my muscles were I looked down and noticed I was still in the clothes I was in when I first got here.
When I looked up at Professor Drake she said, "Your clothes have been brought to your dorm rooms, which you three will be sharing. Your parents and families have been moved to seperate safe places, but you having contact with them could put them in more danger."
I nodded my head, somewhat happier knowing my family was safe. Crys and Rose came around to my side of the bed and we began to walk towards the door.
"Oh and girls," the Professor started and we turned back around to face her. "I hope you have a good first day here tomorrow."
We nodded and waved goodbye. I walked out into the marble floored hallway. I followed Rose and Crystal as it seemed they knew where they were going. As we walked, I noticed that we were walking past what seemed classrooms. There were kids of all ages here from what I could see inside the classes.
"Where are we going guys?" I asked my friends, tearing my eyes away from the classrooms.
"We're going to our dorm room. Its on the 3rd floor, so we have stairs to climb." Rose answered, putting her arm through mine. We took a right at the next hallway and infront of me was a gigantic grand staircase. It was a lighter shade of marble than the floors we were on now. I jumped at the sound of a bell the ricocheted off the walls.
"That's the bell that signals the end of classes. Its the end of the day now so everyone can do what they want until dinner." Crystal said to me. I looked behind me and noticed all the kids talking to each other and beginning to go up the stairs or other places. As they passed by us most gave looks of curiosity. I saw one redhead give me a look of disgust, but I couldn't tell much because she turned back around. We finally got to the thrid floor and stopped infront of room 315.
"Good to see you up and about." I heard a familiar voice say. I looked next to me and saw Mason with a smirk on his face.
Behind him was two other guys, but I only took real notice of one. If I thought Mason was handsome, he had nothing on this guy, he was behind hot. He was taller than the rest of them and had chocolate eyes that drew me in. His arms and chest were all muscle and his messy black hair loooked like he just rolled out of bed. He looked good in a black hoodie, blue t-shirt and black jeans. When I got back to his face, he smirked at me and I rolled my eyes.
