Artemis shook her head, braided hair swinging slightly with the motion. "It's some sort of Elemental User, or Users, or something. But it's powerful, very powerful, and seems to be heading towards the Camp. I've never sensed anything like this before. We need to be prepared to fight." The Camp Leader informed, clenching her fists at her side. Her sapphire eyes glinted as she narrowed them. "Ben, as my Second, I want you to help Darius and Kira round up our strongest, and inform the Cabin Leaders and Seconds of what's happening." She directed, firmly, before looking to Claire. "Claire, I need you to gather the Water healers, and send them to the cafeteria. We might need them soon, and they're safer there." The Light Leader exhaled slowly, before glancing between them once more. "I'm going to get Anya, and have her and the other Light healers gather the younger kids, and take them there too." Her voice was strong, but undertoned with unease.
Lilly, still leaning on Skylar, looked up to Kira. "Do you have any idea what it could be?" She asked, voice quavering with nervousness. Her hazel eyes glittered, racing like her heart.

"Understood." Ben grunted with seriousness, casting a glance at Claire and speaking. "Careful out there."
He turned and quickly moved towards Kira, eyeing Skylar and Lilly seriously and ordering. "Something's approaching camp and it's strong. We need to prepare for a fight. You all, come with me. Defensive and offensive manuvers." He turned once more, Kira following with ease.
Skylar blinked at his brother and gripped Lilly's hand, standing up. He readied himself, dark energy cold beneath his skin. He swallowed. "Sounds really serious..."
Darius finished his last callout for campers, not having to be gathered by Ben to start walking towards him, Quasar and Nick trailing behind him.

The female would sporadically switch between a neutral face and a startling smirk. Occasionally, she would laugh a little, or sing broken pieces of an unknown song. "Tick tock goes the clock, my only comp-anyyy." Her voice sounded strained, as if she had been screaming." Now please don't fear, for the time is near, is neeeeaaarr." Her seemingly black eyes gleamed. "Fire fears water and water fears earth, and earth fears air but air feeds fire."

Artemis turned and trotted off to the Light Cabin, her autumn-and-glowing-white braid floppong behind her. "Anya!" She called to her soon-to-be-sister-in-law, picking up her pace a little. "Something's coming, something big. I meed you to gather the children, and get them in the cafeteria. You can also pick some of the Campers to help you protect them should something go wrong, but I need all Leaders and Seconds on the front lines with me." The Camp Leader instructed, her composure wavering slightly in front of her almost-family.
Lilly squeezed Skylar's hand, worry skyrocketing. "This doesn't sound good." She fretted, heart pounding out of her control.
Roman saw the Camp Leader's boyfriend gathering people, so he beckomed for Vi and her friends to follow him, and hurried after the bulky Earth User. "I don't know what's happening, but it doesn't seem good." He panted, running his left hand through his curly hair.

"I've got your back, Artemis." Anya nodded, turning to usher towards the younger campers, instructing them to go into the cafeteria and into the storage basement.
Rena quickly moved to help Anya, her eyes gleaming with raw emotion and bravery.
Ben stood strong beside Lilly and Skylar, speaking out. "Earth, Water and Air on defense. Fire, Ice, Light and Dark on offense. You all know the drill."
He drew his Sub-Zero blade, though his eyes gleamed a pale blue to signify his Ice Powers were easily ready to go.
Nick seemed suddenly tense, a minisclue trembling taking over his usually carefree form. His eyes seemed to stare out of camp, catching an energy he knew incredibly well. The same fire that resided within himself.

Ulrich looked rather confused, but did not hesitate to place down his things and rush over to Anya. With no powers, he could at least help hide the kids and even cause a distraction if needed.

Artemis nodded, and jogged over to where Ben had gathered the rest of the leadership. "Alright guys, I'm gonna be honest here. I have no idea what we're up against, or how long it will take to get here. I don't even know how many entities it is. I just know it's powerful, and heading towards us. No one is to pass through the Camp's barrier - it's our first line of defense and I can't waste energy to provide anyone with invisibility or a personal shield." She looked around at everyone, re-composing herself before she continued. "If this goes wrong, and the barrier falls... we could have countless malicious Elemental creatures invade. I want patrols circling constantly until we know what's coming." She paused again, mind sorting through a strategy. "Any Darkness Users who can have shadows do that with relatively little effort? We should save our oen energy. Besides that, everyone stays in pairs for now, and any pets should also be moved to the cafeteria. Any questions?" The Camp Leader finished her speech, saphirre eyes glancing over each of her friends, family, and other Campers whose lives she was all responsible for caring for.

"I've got it." Skylar spoke out with soft assurance, darkness spilling from his body and rising into spindly yet swift and sharp shadow figures. He lifted a hand, commanding them to circle the camp. They would be his eyes, but while he was controlling them, he would not be able to move unless they were called back.
Darius gave a grunt, foot slamming to the ground as slabs of rock began rising around camp, creating an intimidating barrier. It would hopefully deter the enemy or give them some protection.
Nick moved quick and nimbly, climbing up one of the rocks and perching on the top, flames dancing between his fingers. He called. "I...It feels farmiliar...I should know what it is, but when I try to remember exactly what, it hurts my head." He called.
Ben gave Artemis a pointed look, an offensive stance ready for combat. He spoke. "Perhaps we were not the only ones to leave that place alive."

Lilly knelt down, pressing her fists to the earth. With a deep breath, she forced vines adorned with huge thorns around the earthen wall Darius had made to help secure the barrier. "Now, anyone who tries to scale it will have to deal with thorny tendrils." She smirked with a small wink, panting. She moved to sit criss-cross, in order to regain the huge amount of energy she had just spent.
Artemis' eyes glowed darkly, as she stretched out her senses and concentrated. The power surge was flickering while growing stronger. "I'm starting to believe you are correct, Ben." Her voice was gravelly, and almost a growl. If Nick recognized the power source from the labs, then the foe was likely extremely dangerous.

Ben narrowed his eyes sharply, extending his power to sharpen and strengthen his Sub-Zero Blade. The crystal blue weapon shone dangerously in the light. He gave a light hiss. "I'll kill these blasted creatures with my bare hands if I need to."
Skylar situated beside Lilly, flickering through the eyesight of his shadow creatures. He mused. "Nothing yet. It must be approaching, but not at the perimeter yet."

Vi stood and also beckoned her friends to follow her, "C'mon Samson, no sitting around!" she smiled before turning away from him, Samson sputtered something but she didn't listen to him and followed Roman. "Where exactly are we supposed to be going by the way, you're not gonna lead us straight into the jaws of some monster are you?" Vi asked teasingly. Samson finally caught up with his friend, "Vi don't joke like that, something might actually be wrong."

(Aight air leader comin at u)
Gabriella "Ella" DiAngelo is 18 and the free spirited leader of the air cabin. As her element would imply, Ella is easy going, care free, and adaptable. As a leader, most disagree with her style. She doesn't have a loud commanding voice, she doesn't organize well, and she isnt even the most physically fit. Some think she was chosen to lead simply because of her age. It's okay, though. She is used to being challenged, and though she has a bad habit of tearing up while being confronted, she manages to handle the situation with grace and without tears. Ella has blonde hair that she has dyed a more silvery color, dark brown eyes, and is very short in height. Her hair is worn in a sloppy bun atop her head. She usually wears bright patterns, flowy clothing, and bright jewelry.

Roman shook his head, expression disheveled. "Considering how everyone looks, it isn't good." He pointed out, stepping to where the leadership was visible.
Artemis sighed slightly. "You guys missed a lot of important sh*t." Her tone was low, exasperated and annoyed. "Vi, Roman, you're on offensive. Stay with Skylar's group. Samson, you're defensive, Lilly's group." She informed, glancing back to her family. "I hate to split us up," she stated, directing this mostly at Darius, "but it's smarter and safer. Every Element has it's strength and weaknesses, and while some do well both offensive and defensively, the best strengths need to be matched in order to keep everyone safe." The Leader advised, her sapphire eyes glinting as she relayed her strategy.
"Alright, dear. Keep it up, but don't wear yourself out yet." Lilly whispered, still trying to regain her full energy from the massive vine barrier she had created.

Among the group of leaders and second-in-commands, Ella looked almost like she didnt belong. Due to her short frame she looked younger than them all, despite probably being one of the oldest members. Her clothes seemed too bright for the dark situation, and she seemed a little dazed and she twisted the silver ring on her finger. Where was her second in command? He didnt care for her one bit, and neither did she him, but she would prefer to have someone beside her for this. It was a bit over her head.
Deven stood outside the cafeteria, her face blank as she stared at their surroundings, reminded of the times she would sit outside at dusk, surveying an incoming storm. With a sigh, she returned to the cafeteria, tucking a lock of mousey brown hair behind her ear as she gave some other campers a reassuring smile. It wasnt very reassuring.

"A splitting is our best bet." Ben spoke to Artemis, keeping an eye on Nick, who was still perched on the thorny earth wall with a tense posture and flickering eyes. "You already know Offense is my best defense."
Darius looked meaningfully at Artemis.
Rena paced next to Mikki, brimming with nerves and sensing a terribly twisted emotion. "Whatever it is, it's been damaged, and is angry." She whispered to her best friend.

Mikki was sitting cross legged on the floor, fiddling with her sandals. Her friend's pacing was making her more anxious than she already was. She couldn't sense like the dark user could, so she felt in the dark about what was going on, but decided to stay positive. "Whatever it is, the older kids will fix it." She stated.

"Wish we were older. Then we could leave the protected zone and go out and fight." Rena flopped anxiously onto the floor of the Cafeteria's storage basement. She looked at Mikki. "What about you? You feel anything with your Earth Powers?"

Post by mourningdove on May 22, 2018 20:05:19 GMT -5
Mikki agreed silently. Maybe she could still go out and help? Her powers werent very strong, but she could still throw a very mean punch, if that would help at all. With a shake of her head, she admitted. "Nah. All I can feel is my stomach growling. I'm too hungry to focus!"

Rena gave a small bout of silence, before she crossed her arms behind her back innocently and offered. "Well, we are in the Cafeteria storage room. There's tons of food down here if we have to wait. We'll go out the minute they need us though." She promised strongly.

Artemis moved some stray strands of glowing white hair out of her face, and tucked them behind her ear. She breathed in, chest heaving slightly with the effort, before continuing to speak. "If things start to get ugly, I want everyone to fall back to the cafeteria. Remember that the youngest of us are there, and as the Leaders, it is our job to protect them." The autumn-haired Light user addressed the older members of the camp around her, smiling sadly. She then waved her arm dismissively to indicate she was done speaking to them as a group, and she padded over to Darius, a churning in her stomach. "Love..." The beauty nearly whimpered with hurt, "I have a horrible feeling about this. And, though I hate to bear the thought, if something happens, and you know I won't fall back, I need you to look after everyone for me." She whispered, pleading in her teary blue eyes.

Darius blinked wide eyed at her for a moment, before he held her face gently with both his hands. He pressed a kiss to her temple, speaking strongly. "We'll come out of this alright. We always find a way. No matter what, you know I'll always defend this camp. I will protect." He calmed her.

"Alright, Samson you've got this!" she saluted her friend and turned away before he could say anything in response. "I'm ready to go where ever I'm needed!" She could fill the energy build within her, darkness swirling and excited to be released. She couldn't come up with any true game plan without seeing the situation.

Artemis melted at his touch, as she always did, and rested her cheek on his palm. "I do know that, but what I'm asking you to do is put the Camp before me, dearest. If I have to do something drastic, then let me." The Light Leader almost pleaded, but for the prying eyes around them, she didn't, and instead smiled faintly and stood on her tiptoes to kiss Darius on his cheek. "Anyways, I'm sure I'll see you when it's all over." She sighed, trying to reassure her fiance that she was alright.

Roman clicked his tongue with excitement. "Awh yeah, looks like it's you an' me, Vi." He nudged her gently with his left elbow, a forced grin on his face in his attempt to lighten the situation. His fire burned within him, unruly and eager to be set free.

The girl frowned, her eyes shifting downwards with a gleam. "The garden once so red, is now full of death. All is gone, torn apart, are my dearest friends." She sang softly, as if having to struggle to remember the words, or the meaning behind them. Or perhaps why they made her sad. Either way, she kept walking on. Towards the source of the power, and the goal that burned deep within her.
The ground was singed where she had stepped.

Darius had a conflicted look, but gave his nod of assurance. His attention caught to Nick, who was visibly shaking now, with both confusion and anger. He barked out. "It's using fire! I can feel it. It feels as if I'm the one starting the fire even though I'm not!" He crossed his arms tight to himself.
Ben glared. Of course, Fire. Lovely. No matter. He didn't need only Ice to kill something.

Artemis squeezed his giant hand in her own smaller one as she looked up to where Nick was perched. "Can you describe that a little better?" She inquired, and eyebrow raised slightly in confusion. How could someone feel like their powers were being used, if they weren't actually?
Lilly slowly rose to her feet, wobbling slightly. "Skylar..." She called softly, trying to get the attention of her boyfriend without breaking his focus. "Do your shadows see any fire?" The dirty blonde asked, hazel eyes glittering with worry.

"The energy is the same one I feel when I use my fire. No two energies are alike unless it's direct kin. But all kin of mine was Darkness and the Fire user passed away years ago...It's my energy." Nick gaped with tense panic.
Skylar closed his eyes, sending the shadows out farther. One streamed towards the trees, only to wail with shock when it saw a figure, singe marks upon the ground.
(Quick Val. Kill it XD )

The female hissed when the shadow approached her. Her black eyes flashed with an explosion of colors, glinting golden as she whisked a bright beam of energy through the minion, dispersing it. "Challenge me?" She whispered, twitching slightly as her eyes gleamed with bloodlust. "Try."
----
Artemis absorbed Nick's words with horror, at this point confident that whatever was approaching came from the labs. "If it's anything like your fire, I think we've got ourselves quite a bit of work cut out for us." She admitted, sapphire eyes glistening with worry. Her freckled cheeks flushed with frustration, turning a pale pink color as she once more looked to Darius for momentary support. Then, steeling herself, she turned to Ben and Claire. "Any way we can easily fire-proof the cabins? At least temporarily?" She asked, stubbornness lacing her words.
