Monachi: Masters of Water and Fire Read Free

hard as she could. Believe it or not, after
that, her hand set ablaze, as did her other hand.
Carson peeked through the window and yelled,
“Luckily Monachi’s only have three powers.”
Tess thought “Three powers?” and looked at
her hands. “Crap, why didn’t I ever do this to my
homework?” she asked herself.
Penny laughed.
Tess blew her fists out.
When we set on our way again, I started
getting nervous. What would happen
to us?
Dissection? Execution? Tests?
I began to bite my nails. It was a habit I
never grew out of. I usually have a rubber band
on my wrist to snap every time I do it.
The van came to a sudden stop. “Welcome
to hell,” Tess muttered to herself. I looked outside
to find a sign that actually said that. Well, it said
‘welcome,’ but someone spray painted the other
part.
The back doors swung open and there was
a bright light, like we were going to the afterlife.
“C’mon then, get out!” yelled Carson. We all sat
still, refusing his command. He grabbed Penny’s
hair, “Move it along!”
Well that pissed me off. I hoped something
would happen to Carson that could kill him, or at
least maim him. I raised a hand;
Come on power, I need you now!
COME ON POWER, I NEED YOU!
    Carson
chuckled, which
made
me
even
more pissed off. All of a sudden, a ball of water
the size of a soccer ball formed in front of my
hand, and shot over at Carson. He fell and started
choking. Tess
laughed, and clapped; “Bravo
Maddy! Best trick of all.”
    Penny started clapping too. She kicked
Carson, who was
still choking. “Clap, you
buffoon!”
    He started clapping.
Seconds later, Rodger came rushing in and
started giving CPR to Carson. After he was done,
he grabbed Penny’s arm, and pulled Tess out of
the van by her hair. Not wise. Tess’s hair started
on fire and burned his hand. Tess shook her head
and the fire went out. He grabbed her by the arm
so she couldn’t try anything ‘funny’ on him.
I knew it was my turn to come out of the
van. I jumped out to avoid being pulled by my
hair. Carson grabbed me by the arm and pulled
me towards the building.
When we got inside I noticed there was a
cage inside a small room surrounded by other
doors. The cage had a girl in it. She looked tired,
and starved. She had long, dark brown hair that
reached down the middle of her back. She was
about 5’0. She had green eyes; as green as grass.
They threw us into the cage
with her, and
slammed the door shut.
“So what’s your name?” Penny asked the
strange girl.
“Briana Heorne” She said while pointing at
each of us. “Your name is Penny Finacale, her
name is Tess Turner, and her name is Maddy
Webber. You come from Idaho, the home of the
potato. Maddy, before you ask, I’m charged for
being a Nymph.”
Surprised at her knowledge I asked, “So
Briana,you can read minds can’t you? What’s
Tess thinking of right now?”
Briana looked at Tess and answered,“She
is sad. Extremely sad. Thinking of how much her
parents must be worried.”
The expression on Tess’s face told me that
Briana was right.
“So where are you from?” Tess
asked
Briana.
“Montana. Idaho was the only state they
hadn’t gotten to yet. I guess they’re done now. I
came with two other girls and one guy. The girls’
names were Alexis and Sammy. The guy’s name
was Gareth. They’re dead now. Got dissected. I’m
the only one
left. In fact, they are dissecting
Gareth right now. My turn next. But I got a plan,
and you’ll see what it is,” she declared.
Tess hugged Briana saying, “I hope you
escape successfully.”
The cage creaked.
We were all afraid of what might happen
next. We formed
a
group hug when Briana’s
name was called.
She put her plan into action.
Once they opened the cage, she got to her
feet and dashed past the guards, who failed to
catch her, and got outside. All of the guards went
chasing her, except one who locked us back in.
Tess started cheering, and we all joined in. The
guard who stayed behind
