The Four Elements: Water

Jay hopped up and down, trying to get the jitters out of him. Personally, he thought that this was the world record for the longest time ever to prepare for a ceremony. This moment had been planned for YEARS because even though all the ceremonies have at least one Chosen One to possess a force of nature, it was the day that one of the Chosen would be chosen to go save the land of Horonza. The Wise One had foretold the future, and today was the day that everyone had been waiting oh so patiently for about three long years. Jay thought that it was going to be hard to wait for something so big for so long. It was like catching a big, healthy antelope that was in its prime spot and you had finally caught it after trying to catch it for long years. The flames of the fire began to give out a bright, red and orange shade, like the autumn leaves dipping low to the ground. Finally, the ceremony began. " Jay of the Duke Lorandia, please step forward." Timidly, Jay stepped forward. Anything could happen! He thought, sweating. The Wise One sprinkled the magic over Jay. They floated around like snowflakes falling from the sky. The whole Village held their breath. Then the moment Jay had been waiting for happened: The Wise One slowly traced a symbol over Jay's forehead. Jay knew that the symbol would represent the power that Jay possessed. It was in the old language of Horonza. Jay's grandfather had told him. Raising his hand, the Wise One proclaimed, " This is the Chosen One who possesses the power of Water." Jay slowly started to not believe her. It seemed like the others didn't too. The Four Elements, Jay knew, were the most told legends in Horonza. Together, they had FORMED Horonza. Now Jay would fix Horonza.
