Im going to be Mark, the character mentioned above, as well. I thought this could take place in a normal world with underlying magical elements that some are aware of and some aren't. 

Name: Mark Fledge

Age: 13

Gender: Male

Appearence: Tall with tousled dark brown hair, pale brown eyes, and skin the color of Dove milk chocolates :)

Personality: Slightly condescending, sarcastic and even rude at times. Enjoys goofing around with his friends.

Gifts or powers: Mark has a sort of sixth sense that alerts him of danger mere seconds before the disaster. When there is impending danger, he gets a prickling feeling on the back of his neck. 

Other: Mark is a Galaxy Defender (by force, not by choice) which is, as he says, a fancy name for a group of weirdo freaks like me who keep the ignorant world shielded from so-called dangerous magic. His father, who also has magical abilities, is founder and commander, so naturally Mark was forced into it.

Mark~

We pack our backpacks for this dumb field trip in the gym. Beside me, John, Terrance, and the rest of the guys crack goofy jokes and throw "safety supplies" around the room. I catch John's eye as he snickers over the mini first aid pack.

"What do they think's gonna happen to us? An attack by a rabid Cardinal?" I ask, holding up my hands and narrowing my eyes.

"I am the evil red bird, and I am going to eat you! Rahhh!" I demonstrate.

"Fledge! Piffner! Stop playing around and listen UP!" Coach Grant commands from the center of the gym, "everyone head outside to be separated into teams. You do NOT leave your teammate alone unless they are injured and you are getting help."

"Ha!" John scoffs, making his voice ridiculously high, "help! I stepped on a thorn! Someone call nine one one!" Shoving him against the wall, I make a face.

"The rabid Cardinal is going to destroy you!!!"

"In your dreams, Fledge!" John replies, pushing me hard in the chest. I start to push back, but then I feel an all-to-familiar tingling on the back of my neck. Danger? In Camden Middle? No way! 

I tell myself. But I still feel uneasy. Half heartedly, I continue joking around with my best friend until...

"Ellie and Mark, your a team."

"Uhh!" I groan. John looks at me sypathetically.

"Better take out baby-seventh-grader with your awesome rabid Cardinal powers so you can come join me and Terrance."

As everyone boards the bus, I feel that tingling again, like an itching mosquito bite. Danger is near, but how near, exactly? Stupid freak powers!

Sorry about my tendency to have two charries. ????, you can have Mark if you still want him, or one of his buddies. 

Name: Celia Williams

~Abi

I am nearly bouncing of the walls with excitement! A HIKE! HOW AWESOME IS THIS?! Answer: SUPER AWESOME!!! My team member, a 8th grade guy who is definetly not as phyced as I am. Finally, we reach our destination. The sun streams down on our faces and I pump my fist, "YES!"p9

~Abi

The force knocks me back, and I see that the only one standing is a girl, Pheonix, I think.  the tree is falling, but before I can get the words out of my mouth, it knocks her in the head. I hear a rustling behind me and turn to look. A bear looms over me, and it attacks. 

Larkin~

My teammate, a pretty, dark-haired girl named Celia, sits across from me in silence, staring akwardly at random people in the bus. I catch bits of a conversation about a rabid cardinal, which strikes me as odd, until I see the people doing the talking. Mark Fledge, and his aggravating sidekick John Piffner. I roll my eyes, and stare back at my hands. When I look back up, Celia gives me a quick smile, and I smile back, an odd feeling of warmth pulsing through me. 

When our rat-trap of a bus finally jerks to a halt, a strange feeling of foreboding begins nagging at the back of my head. I grab my backpack and slip out of my seat, merging into the river of people all trying to push their way off the bus first. Managing not to fall as I exit the bus, I stand still as I reach the edge of the woods, trying to detect that faint scent of danger again. Nothing reaches me, and I push on into the tangle of trees.

There was only one thing wrong with that hike. We stopped far to few times. There was no time for me to sit on a rock and sketch a sparrow, or do an outline of a tree to be filled in later. I simply had to hope that my memory would serve me well so I could sketch everything on the way back to Camden Middle.

OK... it is fine. Can I be Terrance?

Mark~

After yet another safety lecture, Coach sends us into the woods, assuring us that he will be walking around checking on our progress. As John and his partner start off on winding trail, John turns back to look at me, and winks. Celia, Larkin, and a couple other pairs group with Ellie and I as we walk down a winding valley trail. I wait, biding my time. Gradually, kids start branching off in different directions, leaving Larkin, Celia, Ellie, and I. Just when I feel like Larkin and Celia will never leave, they take a fork in the trail that leads down by a scenic, glassy pond. 

"C'mon Ellie, let's go this way," I bait, smiling endearingly. 

"Okay!" She replies, following trustingly. I feel a twinge of guilt at what I'm about to do, but I ignore it. She'll be fine. After all? What's the worst that can happen? Rabid cardinal attacks? Yeah right. After many echoing, crackling steps, I see a path, probably made by water, carving its way down a small hill. 

"Hey Ell, why don't you look down that path, and I'll peek down this trail, and we'll see which one's better? Meet here in five?" 

"Sure," she replies, happily stumbling down the path. As soon as her back is turned, I sprint back up the trail we came down, leaving Ellie to find John. The back of my neck prickles warningly, but I ignore it. What's a field trip without a little fun? John and I should have been partners from the first, after all. 

Ellie~

It starts on the bus. A strange, chilly feeling that seems to come out of nowhere. Oh, oh! I hope I'm not getting sick! I moan inwardly. It gets worse as Mark and I set off into the forest. Chillbumps break out over my arms and I rub them discretely. Tenatively, I glance at Mark. He doesn't notice my strange behavior. My stomach begins to churn as the awful, cold feeling is worse. I plaster a smile on my face and hope that Mark won't think that I am really this naive and happy. When I suggests that I check out an itty-bitty rabbit trail, I can't believe my ears. Finally a chance to sit down a breathe for a few seconds. As soon as I am a few feet down the steep slope, I sink to the ground, leaning against a tree. I must be sick. Why today, of all days? Cold fingers of dread latch onto my shoulders and...I spin around to face the rough tree bark. It really felt like someone was grabbing and shaking me, but there is no one there. Shaken, I look around for Mark, but he is nowhere in sight. Then the awful coldness grips me again, boring into my very skull. Pain blossoms outwards, spreading all over my body. I think I scream, but it is lost in the chaos within my mind. Something is struggling against me, pushing, pulling, fighting, but I can't see it. All I can see is a flash of silver-black sparks, and then, far beyond that, far enough to be surreal and otherworldly, is the forest I was walking through seconds before. I'm dreaming. I'm dreaming. I must be dreaming. The ground is shaking beneath me, as if the invisible foe inside my head is using the very elements against me. Just when I feel like I cannot bare the shaking tumult anymore, it stops, and everything relaxes. But the world still feels distant and fuzzy. And my head...my head feels so wrong, as if something other than me is inside it.

So Voidling has Ellie. What happens next Brooke? 

Cool! Thanks! Who is my partener? Can I make someone up?
