The River flows

Prologue

"Goddess Luna, I think I deserve more than control of the water, I think I should be in control of fire too." Sebastian stated. "I've been here many years, so why don't you give your trusted servant more privileges?"

"NO!" The Goddess boomed. "You need to be content with what you have when you have it. One does not simply inherit the elements, you work for it, and earn it." The Goddess's voice became soft. "You need to be patient and content with what you have, Sebastian."

"GODDESS LUNA! GODDESS LUNA!" Mistress Tina bowed. "The fire is out of control! We need you to calm the fire down!"

"Sebastian?" The Goddess asked. "Would you like to help me?"

"With all due respect, my Goddess Luna, I don't deserve to help you, so I request permission to stay behind." Sebastian bowed before the Goddess could see the glint of evil in his eye.

"Permission granted." The Goddess turned and hurried out of the room.

"Now lets see how the crown fits." Sebastian stated, reaching for the Goddess crown. Sebastian knew if he could get the crown to fit on his head, he would be the new god. He would be in control of all the world.

"NOT SO FAST!" Mistress Tina barged in. "I knew what you were up to all along, I've just created a little diversion because I knew you would stay behind!"

"I know I deserve better than this!" Sebastian growled. "I deserve to control the earth, to make them bow down to me! I deserve to make them pay!" Sebastian reached for the crown but then the Goddess stepped in and made a gust of wind put the crown on her head.

"Sebastian, I hereby strip you of the right to control water, and banish you to the underworld." The Goddess swiftly said as Sebastian started to disappear.

"NNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOO!!!" Sebastian's yell could be heard throughout the heavens as it faded away to nothing.

"Thank you Mistress Tina." The Goddess stated. "You've been a loyal servant throughout these years. You deserve to control water, more than Sebastian did."

"Goddess Luna, I don't need to control water, I'm already happy like I am." Mistress Tina bowed.

"Well then trusted advisor it is then." The Goddess smiled. "What do you propose we do with the water element?"

"I think we should give it to someone down in the human world, someone who can control it, and someone who won't abuse it. I also think we should do the same with all the other elements too, so something like this won't happen again." Mistress Tina answered.

"I think you are very much right. I know the exact people to give them to." The Goddess smiled as she spread the elements out among the four babies. "There families have shown loyalty, even through the hardest of times. They have been around for a while, and they are the perfect candidates for this situation."
