Chatterbox: Pudding's Place

You are sitting

You are sitting in your favorite place. Deep in though, you reminisce about your day. School, homework, freinds, everything. You are surprised at yourself. You never normally think like this. So... Undistracted. So calm. It's almost like magic.

All of a sudden, you snap out of your daze. A small scrap of what appears to be paper is fluttering towards you on a nonexistent breeze. You snatch it out of the air, curious and confused. The paper turns out to be made of something that resembles bamboo, and a strange fragrance wafts out of it, like lemons and sugar. The sounds of nature crowd your mind as you unfold the paper and read:

Greetings, Chosen One. You have been selected for a very special trip, one that will blow your mind and bedazzle you senses. You, and a few other select candidates, have been selected to visit the world of the elves, the Olokimbî. There, you will discover your elemental affinity, and will be trained to control your powers accordingly. I am the Elven Mistress, Araianò, and I will guide you through the land, instructing you on basic skills and introducing you to your masters. Once you are strong enough, you will compete in the Tournament of Elements, and we shall discover the true Master of the Elements. There is however, a risk. The Elven race is currently being invaded by the dragons and their servants. No doubt there may be a spy among you. Once someone is proclaimed the Master of the Elements, we shall immediately utilize out change and crush the dragons forever. The spy will try to stop this happy event from passing, I am sure. Be wary, and be aware. We will come for you soon. 

You glance up dumbfounded, and the paper crumbles in your hands.  

So! Here we go! Defeat the evil dragon lords and save all of Olokimbî! AEs and CAPTCHAS are allowed. The elements are Fire, Water, Earth, Air, Light, and Darkness. Google it up! Take a few quizzes! Tell me what you and your AE/CAPACHAs are, and I'll try to get you where you want to go.

To start with, let's say uh..... 6? 7 people can join? I'll look forward to seeing you soon!

- Araianò, the Elven Mistress

Sorry Leeli, but I cut off the entrants at 20 people. Otherwise there would be NO chance that I could ever finish this. I'm glad you like it though!

Day 1  Part 1/2
September blinked open her eyes. She was lying in the the long grass in a wooded glade, with sunlight streaming through the branches of the trees. It seemed like no time had passed since she and Cortana had been painting the sidewalk. September stood, and gasped at the scene before her. Spread across the ground, covering the whole clearing, were CBers, AEs, and what looked like a couple CAPTCHAs. September bent down and shook Cortana, who was snoring beside her, until she woke up.
"What?" Cortana grumbled sleepily.
"Wake up!" September whispered excitedly. "We're here!"
"Where?"
"Elf Land! Olokimbî! Whatever you want to call it!"
"You mean that crazy element-themed trip you signed us up for?" Cortana said as she stood up. "The one with the psychological dragon spy?"
"Yup." September said, yanking Cortana onto her feet. "But look who else is with us!"
"Whoa..." Cortana looked over the grasses with the same awe that September had, taking in the mismatched collection of sleepy people and animals. The CBers shook off their sleepiness and walked over to join September at the edge of the field, while the AEs and CAPTCHAs congregated as far away from their sane companions as possible. 
"What's going on?" Cho asked, untangling the grass from her long black hair. "Thorn and Pinkie and Elsa were all yelling and screaming, and then we were here."
"Wait," Danie cut in. "Where is here?"
"Olokimbî!" balletandbow squealed. "It must be!"
"But then where is the Elven Mistress?" Athena asked. 
"Yeah!" Marie added. "She said that she would come for us."
Joan had just opened her mouth to speak she realized something odd. A complete and total silence had spread across the field. Concerned at the prospect of what would make their AEs quiet, the CBers whipped around to see an odd scene. 
Thorn, PSXtreme, and Ice Cream Queen were sneaking up behind Elsa, who had Torstyn backed up against a big tree, with something that looked like a giant slingshot with an ice cream pie in it. Puck was standing with her back to the CBers, looking horrified and fascinated at the same time, while all the other AEs and CAPTCHAs were peering at the quintet from behind her.  
Torstyn, who was trying to back up into the branches of the tree, stared at the trio of armed, insane AEs who seemed to be coming to his aid. Apparently Elsa hadn't noticed, because she said: "Torstyn, listen, I just want to-"
SPLAT. The ice cream pie collided with Elsa's back with a sound like a wet mattress hitting the pavement.  Screaming, she whipped around and blasted the trio with ice, but it never hit them. As the first flakes of the icy beam brushed Thorn, Ice Cream Queen, and PSXtreme, they understandably crossed their arms over their heads to protect them. All of the sudden, a fiery sphere sparked into existence, shielding the three AEs from Elsa's icy wrath.
Everyone froze, including the CBers who were about to jump into the fray and try to prevent an AE execution. 
Of the trio encased in flames, Ice Cream Queen was the first to open her eyes. Confused, she uncrossed her arms, and looked around her. Then, she screamed. That prompted Thorn and PSXtreme to look up. Even more confused that Ice Cream Queen, they also lowered their arms, and their fiery shield flickered out. As the other 18 people in the clearing stared at the two AEs, they slowly began to process what had happened. 
"What did we just do?" PSXtreme asked, almost timidly. 
"THAT WAS AWESOOOOOOOOME!!!!" Thorn shouted.
A silence settled once more over the clearing, this time more ominous and scary than before. After a few moments, a melodious voice came out from the forest. 
"It has begun. The elemental masters have arrived."

Day 1  Part 2/2
The whole group whipped around. A tall, serene woman slipped out of the surrounding woods, and the CBers gave a collected gasp. The woman was strikingly beautiful, with waist-length black hair that was partially swept up into a tight bun, a long-sleeved dark purple dress, and piercing green eyes. 
She stepped farther out into the clearing, and approached PSXtreme and Thorn, who were staring at her openly. 
"PSXtreme, isn't it?" the lady asked, coming to a halt before the two shocked AEs. 
"Y- yes milady!" PSXtreme stuttered nervously. 
"And Thorn, correct?"
"Yup," he replied definitely. "Who are you?"
Cho started forward to apologize for her AE's rudeness, but the lady waved her back with a thoughtful expression on her face. 
"True. I have not told you my name. I am Araianò, the Elven Mistress.  I am the one who brought you here."
That caused general shock and gasping throughout the entire group, with the exception of a large section of the AEs, who had wandered back over to the tree and were randomly pelting each other with even more random stuff. 
"But," Araianò continued, "it is not I we should be worried about. Now you are here, the spy among you will begin their work immediately."
"You mean... There really is a spy?" Danie asked hesitantly. 
"Certainly dear. We were not totally convinced that the dragons' sphere of influence reached as far as your world, but the fact that you all arrived here instead of where we called you to confirms it. The spy," she continued, looking over the group of increasingly nervous CBers. "Whoever he or she may be, has already pulled you off you course."
"He or she?" Marie asked, confused. "All the boy CBers stayed behind."
"But there are not only CBers on this trip," Araianò explained calmly. "Most of you have at least one companion."
Another round of gasps from the CBers. Apparently the fact that one of their AEs of CAPTCHAs could be the spy hadn't yet occurred to them.  
"But no matter. You are here now, and we can begin."
"You keep saying we," Athena noted. "But it's just us and you."
"Ah," Araianò said. "How could I have forgotten? During your time here, you will be trained to control your elemental powers. I am the instructor for Light, but there are four other elements to be taught. Let me introduce Margorn, the Master of Fire, Winestra, the Master of Air, Greneth, the Master of Earth, and Gweneth, the Master of Water." 
As the Elven Mistress introduced them, the four elves stepped out of the woods where they had been waiting. 
"Now," Araianò started in a businesslike tone. "Before we can begin your training, we must determine your elemental affinity. PSXtreme, Thorn, Elsa, come here please."
At the sound of their names, the three AEs shuffled silently up to Araianò, looking down. 
"You three were involved in an elemental confrontation," she began, "where one element meets its opposite. Elsa, you have had your ice powers for as long as you can remember yes?"
Elsa nodded mutely. 
"You dear, are Water. Join Gweneth over there please."
After Elsa had left, Araianò continued. "Now you two, when confronted with Elsa's ice, raised your hands to defend yourselves. And you were protected by fire. Therefore, you two, PSXtreme and Thorn, you are Fire. Join Greneth."
They did so.  
"Now!" Araianò exclaimed. "I invite the Masters forward to create our test."
The four elves walked forward to the center of the clearing, each pulling something from behind their cloaks. Araianò pulled a ball of bright light from behind her, and placed it beside the four hovering spheres that the Masters had set on the air. 
"Each of you will come forward and attempt to touch the elements," Araianò said. "The one that accepts you is yours. Torstyn, let's start with you."
Torstyn walked forward nervously, and extended his hand towards the ball of Light. It shifted a few inches to the right, avoiding his fingers. This process repeated itself several more times until Torstyn poked at an almost translucent ball that appeared to be made of wind. He succeeded in picking it up with both hands, and turned to grin at the group of CBers behind him. 
"Air," Araianò proclaimed. "Join Winestra."
This was repeated for the whole group. Cho, Pinkie, BABTMP, and Sir Galahad all managed to lift the sparkling ball of Light, while balletandbow, Fig, and Athena grasped the swirling ball of Earth, Joan and Danie joined Elsa with the bubbly Water ball, and September, Cortana, Golden Spark, and Marie snatched up the flickering ball of Fire. But then, disaster struck. 
Vikki had just reached for the Earth ball when a flash of silver tore through the clearing. A tiny dagger embedded itself into her chest, and she gasped and fell. The five elves ran over to her, but it was too late. 
"She's gone," Araianò said sadly. "The spy is here."
