The Elementals by Namacub95 (latest books to read txt) 📖

Quidditch teams, James, Nicky and Fred who were both laughing at some joke among themselves. Lily, Hugo, Lorcan and Lysander were all talking in hushed whispers and in the very back stood Ellesheil. Keith and Shauna stood on the stage

"Well?" Keith asked Shauna "Do you think that's enough?"

Shauna scanned the crowd of students gathered and gave a small nod "It'll do."

"Now what?"

"We tell them about you five and why they're here." Shauna answered after a brief pause.

Keith nodded at Shauna's words; he knew that eventually people would find out. It was only a matter of time. Shauna gave Keith's arm a light punch and he smiled at her.

"You ready?" She asked. Keith gave a short jerky nod and Shauna smirked and then yelled "Oi! Pack it in!"

Instantly the noise died and all eyes flew to Shauna and Keith. A sudden rush of nerves hit Keith and he suddenly felt very exposed. Shauna however took the sudden attention in her stride.

"As you all know we asked you to come here today because we need people to start a club. I want you all to know before you get any ideas…this is going to be exactly like the DA. I'm not going to lie to you, this will be dangerous. There is no grantee that you'll all make it out of this."

There were murmurs throughout the room but all instantly died when Shauna gave a small cough.

"The reason we started this in the first place is because they're evil people out there. Those murders that have been happening are not coincidents. The Cult are behind them and they are trying at this very moment to get into Hogwarts…and they've succeeded. You all saw that message in the Entrance Hall but you have no idea exactly how much is at stake here. These people will kill if given half the chance. They're ruthless and will stop at nothing until they kill all five elementals."

"There's no such thing as elementals!" yelled Ellesheil "They're just an old bedtime story."

"That's were you're wrong." Shauna declared earning several gasps and even more muttering "Elementals are real…I know that they're real and I can prove it."

"I'd love to see you try." Ellesheil replied folding her arms. Shauna turned

"Keith is an elemental." Shauna declared.

"Really?" Lorcan asked.

"Yes, and he can prove it too." Shauna nodded then walked over to Keith and whispered "This is our shot. Don't blow it."

Keith steeped forward and everyone looked at him expectantly. Several people leaned forward to see what he would do. He and Shauna had practised exactly what they would do when it came time for him to prove his abilities.

"Aguamenti!" Shauna cried and with a flick of her wand a small jet of water streamed from her wand. Keith expertly caught the water forming it into a ball, earning 'oohs' and 'ahhs' from the crowd of students. Keith rocked back on his heels and pushed the water forward and it formed into a long thin whip. Everyone stared in shock and slight fear as Keith manipulated the water in front of them before finally he dropped it to the floor and Shauna dried the puddle from the floor.

Silence.

"That's not possible." James Potter said.

"It's just a trick, how stupid do you think we are?" Ellesheil yelled from the back.

"Whoa…that was—that was…can you teach me to do that?" Lily Potter asked excitedly.

"How long did you know you could do that Keith?" Fred asked.

"I can't believe this." Lorcan and Lysander muttered together.

"I've seen myself what he and the others can do. I was like all of you…I didn't believe at first but I know now that this is far from a fairy tale." Shauna spoke up "But these Cult people are going to try and kill Keith and the other elementals…they are the only people who can defeat them once and for all but they can't do it alone. We need you to help us. Five teenagers can't defeat an entire army. It's impossible."

"That's why you need us right?" Lily asked.

"Yeah, we need you guys because you are the only people we can count on to help us now. You are stronger together than the whole of the Cult combined. You know what the DA did during the war and together we can do it again."

There was excited chatter amongst the crowd of students. Shauna watched them all with an unreadable expression while Keith clapped her on the shoulder.

"I think we did it." He whispered. Shauna merely shrugged in response. The next hour was spent finding out who exactly was going to be signing up for their club which Shauna had dubbed The Elemental Army, or T.E.A for short, Keith had sniggered at that acronym and ended up with some sore ribs for his trouble.

After about two hours or so everyone had left the Room of Requirement and everyone had joined the club, even Ellesheil but Keith still was unsure about that.

"We did good…well you did good. I just improvised." Keith said as he and Shauna left the Room of Requirement themselves.

"At least it didn't take much to convince them. I thought it would have been harder than that." Shauna replied with a shrug.

"It's Hogwarts. It impossible happens everyday here."

"You might have a point there."

"Wait a minute." Keith said looking clearly amused "Are you actually saying I might be right?"

"No. I was implying

you might be right. That's different."

"I really hate you sometimes." Keith grumbled and Shauna smirked.

"No you don't." she declared.

"How would you know?" Keith asked "I could hate your guts to hell and back and just pretend to like you."

"I know you don't hate me. You forget I can read you like a book." Shauna replied looking, if possible, even smugger by the minute.

"You think

Shauna. You think

you can read me like a-"

Keith was silence by Shauna who had grabbed him by the collar and kissed him. She quickly pulled away with a smirk and said

"You see Keith. If I didn't know you I would have simply told you to go away only less politely." With that Shauna walked down a corridor and vanished from sight leaving a very red faced and dumbfounded Keith in her wake.
