A young lady, who looks like she's around her 20s, was walked side-by-side down a hallway with her teen brother. The woman had bright blue eyes and simmering long, blonde hair. She had a pastel green halo, with little spikes poking out, floating over her head. A beautiful long white and pinkish robe was hanging loose around her body, a bit too large on her. Her brother on the other hand, had a lavender robe covering his body. He was taller than his older sister but seems more closed with himself. He had a hood over his head but you could still see the light brown hair poking out and his silver eyes. The boy had a calming expression on his face, but deep down he felt excitement. He was going to see the Tree of Elements for the first time.
    "You seem normal but I know deep down that you are really excited." The lady said as they both stopped at a closed door.
    "Sister, stop looking at my spirit."
    "It's fun, though! You always look like a serious man when I know deep down you are full of emotions, Seth!" She laughed. "Now, time to show the Tree of Elements to our new crystal member!" Lyna, Seth's sister, cheered. She was known to be the bubbly sibling out of the family while Seth was more neutral.
    The Tree of Elements is one of the biggest trees in the world of Opal. Crystals are hanging off of the branches and leaves to represent all the Elementals, people with element powers. They shine beautiful colors and are in sections to know which elements people have. For example, one part of the tree is glowing red, representing the Element of Fire. Another is glowing green, representing the Element of Forest. Some of the crystal are clear, those are Elementals who have not received their powers. Once they do, the crystal will shine into the beautiful color of their element and then the people, who have the Element of Crystals, will move the crystal to the correct section.
Once the door open, the two siblings were strike with fear once they felt everyone's spirits were covered with it in the huge room. Crystal workers were running to one direction of the tree. Lyna stopped one of them.
    "What's going on?" She asked.
    "Eight people discovered their elements at once. Seth is one of them!" The man said while pointing to Seth. Seth began to feel nervous. He truly hates having all eyes on him.
    "That sounds like history! Why is the room filled with stress and fear?" Lyna said. The man went quiet.
    "One of them is the child of Phoenix's." Lyna went silence. She then ran to the darkest part of the tree, Seth following behind. They both pushed through the crowded area and their spirits were now covered with fear. There lies a rock wrapped by one of the tree's branch. Two round crystals, different from the rest, were on the rock. One of them was glowing a pure black.
    "One of the children has awaken." An older woman said as she walked through the crowd, towards the rock. Everyone went quiet and moved out of the way for the Queen of Crystals. "Is it confirmed that they received their elements along with the other seven children?"
    "Yes, my queen!" A man said. "Eight children received their elements at once which has never happened! We gotten two, three, but eight is history!"
    "But do you know that the child of Phoenix has awoken?! That they are one of the eight?" She roared.  "Once the word comes out, Phoenix will rise and search for them to take over Opal. War will began, fear will strike all Elementals and we have no protectors since the Element of Light are up in the skies, not wanting to help after the killing of Fia." The queen said. "We must find the child at once before Phoenix gets to them." She began walking away.
    "But how will we find them!" - "They could be anywhere!" - "What if they're in the human world?" The Element of Crystals began panicking.
    "Enough!" The Queen yelled.
    Seth pushed through the panicking crowd and stood in the center. "Your highness!" He yelled. Everyone paused and stared at the boy, even the Queen.
    "Yes?"
    "Let me go find them." He announced. Everyone gasped.
    "Seth, no!" Lyna said as she ran towards him.
    "I am one of the eight children who received their element!" He kneeled down. "We are all connected. I can sense a new type of spirit even from far. Spirits of the other children! Let me go out and find them."
    Everyone stared at Seth in shocked. They knew he was the key of reaching the child but they fear for him. Mostly Lyna was fearing for him the most.
    "Seth, this is a risky task. Mostly for you since you just received your new power. Are you sure you are worthy-"
    "Yes, I am!" He cut off the Queen. Silence grew in the room.
    "So be it. You have my permission to go out and find that child, at once!" She said.
    Everyone stayed quiet. They slowly began clapping for Seth for his mission. He seemed serious but deep down his spirit was covered with fear.
    "What will happen once the child has been found?" Someone asked.
    "Seth, the child, and the other six children will all be put in a private school to learn their new elements. We will contact the headmistress so they can watch over the child and see the power they hold. We will make them into a weapon for the next fight Phoenix creates." The Queen said as she turns around and began to walk to the door.
    "But what if Phoenix is out looking for them?" Another questioned.
    "Then we will have to fight Phoenix and his evil doings to keep him away from the child!" She said. The Queen turned around to Seth. "Seth, good luck on your journey." From that, she left the room, leaving her people in shocked.
    Seth turned around and stared at his sister. Lyna walked towards him and pulled him into a tight hug.
    "Be safe, Seth."
And from there, Seth ran back home, to his room, to began his first mission as the Element of Crystal.
