had stories of Elves, Dwarves, Gnomes, Fairies, and other things. But to us, they were exactly that. Stories. Our world had technology instead. Things like the steam engine and airplanes.” I pause. Some words don’t have a translation in Elvish, which makes sense. Though it got the first part of airplane, but not the second?

“Steam what?” Lahana asks, confused at the word engine.

“That is what I am trying to say, Mother. The language on Alex’s world is a language of magic somehow. Watch this,” Leeha says. She holds out her hand, and suddenly the Water Elemental appears in the palm of her hand, as it always does. A water globe. Then, she looks at it and says in English, “Make yourself smaller,” and it does. Her parents both gasp in surprise.

Turning to me, Leeha asks, “What is the word for bigger?”

“Bigger,” I tell her.

“Again?” she says, focusing on my lips.

“Bigger,” I say slowly, making sure to enunciate the word.

Nodding, she looks at her palm once more and says, “Make yourself bigger.” The Water Elemental in her hand gets bigger. Again she utters the phrase, and the Water Elemental in the palm of her hand is now twice as large as it was when she started.

“How is that possible!” Lahana cries in amazement.

“We aren’t sure,” I tell her. “When my God put me here, I have a feeling he did it on purpose. You mentioned the five Gods? Can you tell me about them?”

Lahana shakes herself, nods, and begins slowly. “There are the five Gods. Those who rule over the Elementals of Earth, Fire, Water, Air, and Mind. They are the ones who choose who has the gift or not. They are also the ones who control everything, from the weather to the erosion of rock. They are in everything, including us, even those who do not have the gift.”

“Are they called that? Earth, Fire, Water, Air and Mind?” I ask with a raised eyebrow.

“That is correct,” Lahana says.

Seriously? How original is that? Then again, my God is called God, so I can’t really say anything. But, if what God said is true about his Angels pretending to be Gods here on his behalf, does it mean more, or am I just reading too much into it? My thoughts are interrupted by Leeha.

“Also, Alex’s language seems to be able to do things with magic that we never thought of,” she tells her parents proudly.

“How so?” Lahana asks cautiously.

“Wait, before you say anything, Leeha, I have a question. You said that the Elves had kept the history of your people? Is there any mention of another Elemental Summoner using new spells?”

“You mean, switching from Water to Fire?” she asks me, confused by my question.

“No, like your Water Sword, or such. I assume everyone has the same magic spells? I mean, your Water Arrow with the ability to pull whatever you hit towards you is amazing. But does it mention these Summoners having new amazing spells that make them stronger?” I ask.

Leeha looks over at her father and asks, “Father? You are the one who knows more of the history than Mom or me?”

Maxil sits and ponders that question before answering. “While what Leeha is doing is different, it’s not a new spell. She is still using the base spell of the Water Arrow. The stories and histories do not mention any new and amazing spells that would make them even more powerful. What makes them powerful is the ability to utilize all five Elementals. Why?” he asks, looking my way with a curious expression.

“Because, as Leeha was about to tell her mother, I can,” I tell them. Lifting one of my hands, I call up Water, and then I think Water Bullets.

Water Bullet spell used. 10 points of water used.

Suddenly six water bullets are floating over my hand. I tell the Water Elemental to get rid of five of them, and somehow they merge back into the palm of my hand in a smaller globe form and I am left with one floating bullet. I then make a gun with my hand, with one finger sticking out and my thumb pointing up. I point at a patch of dirt on the ground a little away from me on the left, and I ‘shoot’ it. Suddenly there is a small clap of thunder, and the ground sprays up in a geyser of dirt from the impact.

Lahana and Maxil both jump to their feet and back up about four feet from the firepit where we are sitting.

“What the Gods was that!” Maxil is the first one to find his ability to speak again, holding Lahana in his arms. I look over and see some fear in her eyes.

“That is what I call Water Bullets,” I tell them. “Your daughter knows how to do them now as well. They are not limited to just Water, either. I am one hundred percent sure you will be able to use them with your own Fire ability,” I say, looking at Lahana with a soft smile.

“Wait,” Lahana says slowly. “Leeha knows that spell? And how did you go from six of those things to one?”

“Ah, that was me. I figured shooting six of them would be too much, so I asked my Elemental to take five of them away,” I say with a silly smile.

“What?” blurts out Leeha in surprise.

“Well, remember how I asked if Elementals were alive?” I ask her. She nods, so I go on. “So, I thought I would ask it to remove them. It seemed natural. I thought about the stories on my world about how Summoners would control or talk to their Elementals. I mean, it might be wishful thinking on my part, but I feel a connection with my Elementals, almost like they are waiting for a command. Like this. I wanted to try this from the start.” I hold my palm up and think, Water.

Once the globe is in my hand, I say, “Hey, buddy. Can you change shape? Can you
