Inside Look to Elemental Academy
" Clearly Water." The words issued from Heated Fire's lips. " Yes." Zorzin Star inclined his head in knowing. " We do not have to test this one. But is she Night Dark or DayLight?" Heated was quick to respond. "Daylight." She answered, brushing, red-gold hair to the side of the face. Zorzin shook his head. " Night Dark. But if you given me Emma's brother, you can have the girl." Heated Fire frowned. " Yes." She agreed recluntley. " I have Emma, you have Lunin."

The Animus
The Animus are tribes of people. They can turn into a particular species of animal, talk to that species, and they are born with some traits and skills associated with their animal. The animals are species, but not subspecies. For instance:
- There is a Leopard Tribe, but not Cloud, Chinese, or Snow leopards
- There are tigers, but not Amur or Bengal Tigers

Summer
Summer vacation approaches. I'll still try to publish posts and comments, but I'll be absent from the web for a period of 13 days, beginning after school ends. Because I'm going to SLEEPAWAY CAMP!, where no electronics allowed is a strict rule. The camp is Med-o-Lark. It's located in Maine. Heres the link to the home page, and here's the link to the camp history. What are you doing over your summer?
See you later!

Dancing by Lantern- continued
Realm hesataited. Did he really want to become part of the Dancers Of Seasons? But he had no choice. Reya had already joined, and he had already danced. So in a flat voice, he accepted his fate with a stonic expression and a flat " Yes." " Then let the fun begin!" Laughed a young woman. She pulled Reya and Realm into the circle. They danced like they where meant for it. The frost dissarpered, and green sprouts shot out of the cold ground. They chanted: Frost, fall away. Winter, be gone. Banish cold, welcome warmth. Flower shoots, come. Spring, hello."
A Little Background:
Realm isn't a dancer, and every girl who's joined the season dancers has eventually become cold and unfeeling. Sometimes this happens to the boys. Realm docent want this to happen to him or Reya.

Student Bloggers In Other States
Today, I visited two class blogs- one Iowa, one in Hawaii! It's cool to know that other people- students- are blogging at there. So far only one person has got comments, but the class's are working on it. They are both fifth graders- 5BFish from Hawaii, FeltonsFabolousFive from Iowa. I think it is nice that we get to communicate with other students like us, over great distances, using the internet!

Testing Season
Commomon Core Testing: The horror of 3 to 5 grade students. ELA and math. ELA received alot of people protesting that the questions where unclear. I agree, but did't have time to go to the protest. I look forward to the math test- our teacher said that students always do better on math then ELA. The math is next week. ELA was the week before break. It was easier then I thought it would be. We don't get our test results till August. BOO!

Frost Leapers- How they name
This is an inside look on how Frost Leapers name each other. If you don't know what they are, read my post Frost Leapers.
Naming
3 small wolves raced down the tunnel. One black as night, another grey as smoke, the 3 white as stars. And sure enough.... " Night! I'm waaaaay ahead of you!" Shouted the grey wolf. " You where saying, Smoke?" Asked the white wolf as she sped ahead. "I'm ahead of both of you, Star!" Said the voice of the black wolf, who was ahead of them both.
--------------------------
" Do I really need to tell you?" asked Frozenleap. " Yes!" So Frozenleap begain his story.
We name our children based on their looks. So a particularly wide-eyed wolf might be named Owl. They have one-word names to symbolize that they are alone and not part of the pack. Then, as they reach maturity and the title of Frost Jumper, they grasp two-word names. It symbolizes that they are not alone; but the last parts are different from that of a Frost Leapers. They are: Night, Flake, or Jump. So that wide-eyed wolf might become Owljump. Then, if they pass their test, the last name changes, to symbolize the turn from Frost Jumper to Frost Leaper, and to show their full allegience with the pack. The names are: Leap, Ice, and Snow. So Owljump might become Owlleap. Smoke, Smokeflake, Smokeleap. Night, Nightjump, Nightice. Star, Starnight, Starsnow.

Dancing by Latern
The boy held up the lantern. It illumainted his pale face and the girl beside him. They seemed scared. "Reya, are you ready?" The boy asked. " As ready as I'll ever be, Realm." The girl, Reya, replied, her face beaded with sweat. Then a tall, pale, black-haired woman appeared. She seemed to float. " Reya, Realm." The woman greeted them. " Are you ready to join the dance?" They nodded.
------------------------------
They danced fluidly as the wind, by light of lantern. As they danced, they chanted: " By light of lantern, banish fall. At strike of midnight, let frost spred. Night, frost, by light of lantern, summon winter." They, as one might guess, where bringing winter into being.

The Meeting
The bronze dragons scales scraped against rough rocks as she settled down to become part of the circle. " This has gone to far" she hissed "Shark, you must STOP!" " But I thought you pledged yourself to the Revengie." was the chilling response, as a sapphire dragon slid around the corner. " I really did. We really did. And the punishment for betrayal to the Revengie, Chrome" he let the words settle down" Is death." Chrome jerked her tail back and fourth. With interest, some other dragons, mostly reddish-yellow, or brownish-gold, and the occasional black, leaned forward. " But I want to quit. This has gone to far!" Shark smiled grimly. " No, Chrome. You have gone to far. Good-bye." Chrome's dying scream as she fell down the cliff still echoes in some's minds.

Where Am I?
That is the question Alixa asks when she lands in a magical world full of dragons, unicorns, nymphs, spirits, and people with magical talents. Then Alixa releases she is not so different: A few drops of reveling potion reveal her talent: Alixa can talk to animals. She is about to settle down and make a home in Althica. Here, she has a date that can fly, and her pet snake Quicksilver. But then someone steals the Crown of Summer. Without it, Summer cannot come and go.

The Jackolopes, Chapter 7, The Cure
In the night, the Jackolopes had turned back into themselves. They had also reached the bottom of the mountian, which they congratulated themselves on. The night was dark and starry, like dozens of tiny, white, flowers, which reminded Sky of a story his mother used to tell him. He told it to the others:
A long time ago, there was a star. It was so bright, all the others stars became invisible. They plotted against this star. Eventually, they killed the star. They all shone as brightly as before- they where glad. But the other star fell to earth, flaming. Where it fell, no one knew, but a wise dragon revealed it was in a great forest, surrounded by green grass. It grew into a white flower that could cure any burn. It was guarded by a white Jackolope with black horns. No one has dared to try to find it. Not yet, anyway.
" So we know what the cure is." Thought Deer. "We just need to find it."

The Jackolopes, chapter 6, time to put that star blue to use
As morning approached, the jackolopes where a sad group to behold. They talked and thought about things they could have done to save Dew, Beetle especially, until Poppy wisely said " Dew would not want us to do this. She would have wanted us to go on." This made Deer think about what Dew would have want them to do, until she came up with an idea. " Hey." She announced " We could get down the mountians faster as Snow Leopards.
A few minutes later, 4 Snow Leopards where racing down the mountians. And no one knew where they came from.

The jackolopes, chapter 5, the burial
Dew was buried under a willow, under the nearest stretch of paurie grass they could find. The star, however, was not buried with her. It was given to Beetle, who had been developing a (love) affair with Dew. The sunset fell onto Dews broken body. She was special. Unlike most Jackolopes, she had not been a solid color. Instead of the festive reds, pinks, oranges, or yellows; the calming, greens, blues, and whites; the dark blacks, greys, and browns; and all the colors in between, Dew had been a calming aqua, with white paws and small bursts of yellow all over her body. And no one, NO ONE, could match her soothing voice, and skill at cooking. After the funeral, when the jackolopes found shelter for the night in a dark, damp, cave, Beetle swore never to use the star. It was a promise he would soon break.

Death
A hole gaped in the frozen earth.The girl gasped weakly. Her hands failed around, grasping for a hold. Frost covered her features, once pretty, now ugly and marred. "You wouldn't dare." She gasped, reaching up to grasp solid earth. It crumbled when she touched it, falling into the bottomless pit. " Oh, yes I will." A voice responded. A man peered over the side of the pit, grinning evilly. He reached downward, touching her hand, but doing nothing but slipping off a bracelet, with beads of sapphire and crystal, that she wore. " I know what you really are." He said, peering at the bracelet as he spoke. " A winter spirit. To be precise, a spirit of ice. Ice spirits are deadly, with there freezing winds and blasts, frostbit instant, and the ability to freeze hearts. But I know the ice spirits downfall. They may be friends with fire, lava, and magma spirits, but the heat at the center of the earth will kill them." The girl seemed to faint; how could he know? but she struggled on grasping for handholds. Ice appeared and spread wherever her fingers touched, but melted away. Heat steamed from the cracks in the walls. The man breathed steam; the heat through the wall increased. The ice seemed to melt. The ice spirit was dying. But then the ice spirit lept forward. She grabbed on to the mans arm and swung upward, kicking him in the face, leaping forward and spinning around. The ice seemed to stop melting; in fact, it seemed to be spreading. The girl kicked the man into the pit. The cold seemed to be thicker there. The man was dying. " You are the good guy, I am the bad one." She jeered. "Who is here to save you?"

The Jackalopes, Chapter 4, The glass shard and the fall
As the jackalopes made their way down the slope, Dew begin to wonder about the piece of glass Jumpera had slipped into her paw. It had been a bright blue, the color of the ocean. It had been shaped like a star. The curiosity suddenly became to much for Dew to bear. She slipped a paw into her satchel and brought it out. The star glittered in the early morning light, a beautiful shape. It was so beautiful that Dew, unfortunately, Did not pay attention to her surroundings.
Dew cried out, but there was nothing her party could do to save her. But then, something happened. A badly scratched eagle flew up toward them. As it reached ground, It turned into Dew. Dew might have survieded, but it was to late. She was already dying. "I think it was the star." Dew gasped, pressing the star into Poppy's paw. "No!" Cried Beetle. But it was to late. Dew was dead.

The Jackolopes, chapter 3, A shard of glass
5 jackalopes where departing to find the white flower, and unravel the meaning of the jackolope prophecy. They where departing next morning. The searchers were: Poppy, a old but wise and stable elder; A young healer skilled in the art of seeing, Dew; A especially fast finder, Beetle; Deer, a young jackalope who was skilled in planning and archery; and last, but not least, Sky, a trap detector and disabler. The good-byes where being said. Any moment now, the Jackolopes would leave. Just before the party began their journey downward, Jumpera limped out of her tent. She slipped a shard of glass into Dew's paw and left. Dew dropped the piece of glass into her satchel. None of them wondered or even bothered to look at the shard.

The jackolopes, chapter 2, Knowledge
" We only know the riddle." Responded the phoenix. "It goes something like this:
Silver moonlight
With Green Grass
Touches the EverGreen trees
Burns can be caused by the Sun
But healed at Moonlights paper-thin touch
" It does not rhyme, but we think it means that a tall flower, surrounded by grass, in the EverGreen forest, is the cure. When it is touched to the burn, we think the burn will heal." "There is one problem, though." Piped up the elder. "As far as we can see, there is not a drawback. Every legend has a drawback. The problem is, we canNOT find the drawback in this legend. Which means the searchers will have to be prepared for everything." "Poppy, does not that remind of the old jackolope prophecy?" Mentioned the other elder, drinking down the healing, but scalding, drink.
Bounding through the grass
Bounding through the grass
of its own kind
the searcher
sees moonlight
to heal the darkest fur
an antler like the fatal burn
finds the flower in the grass.
But join it with the phoenix riddle
or the prophecy will not last.

Jackalopes- chapter 1, Recovering
The tribe was still recovering. Black burns showed on paws and legs, antlers were missing, sores throbbed red. A wildfire had raced through there home, set by the griffen lion tribe, hungry for more territory. Things had been bad. The leader was missing a leg; the deputy died; only two elders had survived the rage. The tribe knew they had no chances of surviving in their former home. So they traveled up to the top of the Song of Sky mountian, where the phoenixes nursed them until they where ready to battle the griffen lion tribe for their former territory.
The medicine tent consisted of 25 beds woven of soft plain grass; a boiling cauldron filled with a hot, red liquid that most of the patients where being fed, and a phoenix healer, along with 3 jackolope ones. "Noooooooooo!" A great moan split the air. "Its true." said the phoenix healer softly. "Jumpera will die in three days time." "No." Muttered the jackolope softly. "There is one way to save Jumpera, however." "How?" said the jackolope, leaning in.

The Prophecy
copied from wings of fire the dragonet prophecy
The Prophecy
When war has lasted twenty years...
the dragonets will come.
When the land is soaked in blood and tears...
the dragonets will come.
Find the Seawing egg of deepest blue.
Wings of night shall come to you.
The largest egg in mountain high
will give you the wings of the sky.
For wings of earth, search through the mud
for an egg the color of dragon blood.
And hidden away from the rival Queens,
The Sandwing egg awaits unseen.
Of three Queens who will Blister and Blaze and Burn,
two shall die and one shall learn
That if she bows to a fate that is stronger and higher,
she'll have the power of wings of fire.
Five dragons to hatch on the brightest night,
five dragons born to end the fight.
Darkness will rise to bring the light.
The dragonets are coming....

Wings of Fire
Wings of Fire
Wings of fire is a book series about 7 dragon tribes at war. Queen Oasis of the Sandwings( I will inclose a Nightwing guide to the dragons of Pyrrhia at the next post, along with the prophecy ) was killed by a scavenger, and now her three daughters, Blister, Blaze, and Burn, are fighting over the throne. The Nightwings have made a prophecy that 5 dragonets, from different tribes, born on the brightest night, will rise up to stop the war and chose the next Sandwing queen. However, the Skywing egg was smashed and the dragon carrying it killed, so the a Talon of Peace(a underground peace movement that believes in the Prophecy and is determined to stop the war) go's out and gets a Rainwing egg as a replacement. This is a great series about dragons.
The books: The Dragonet Prophecy, narrated by Clay, the Mudwing Dragonet of Destiny. The Lost Heir, narrated by Tsunami, the Seawing Dragonet of Destiny. The Hidden Kingdom, narrated by Glory, the (mistaken) Rainwing Dragonet of Destiny, as a replacement for the smashed Skywing egg. The Dark Secret, narrated by StarFlight, the Nightwing Dragonet of Destiny. The Brightest Night, narrated by Sunny, the Sandwing Dragonet of Destiny. The Brightest Night will come out April or March 2014.
Commentery on the Rival sisters: "Blaze is about as smart as a concussed sheep, Blister is probably plotting to become the Queen of all the tribes right now, and if Burn wins, she'll probably keep the war going just for fun." - StarFlight.

The dragon statues
The Dragons On The Shelf
On a shelf in the back of the store, there where statues of dragons. Chinese dragons, big dragons, small dragons, fire dragons, sleeping dragons, thin dragons, fat dragons, strong dragons, weak dragons. Awake, bathing, eating, hunting, mating, giving birth, sitting, flying, leaping, talking, climbing, the dragons pose's were never the same as another dragons. They where made of crystal, basalt, emerald, moonstone, diamond, stone, marble, ruby, bamboo, shale, gold, silver, bronze, brick, and one, just one, was made of sapphire. It was at the very middle and prized beyond belief. each dragon had a name inscribed on its base. For at midnight, when the shop was closed, The shop transformed into a dragon heaven. A zen garden, a mountian peak, hills, forests, and lots of prey, this heaven changing seasons each night. No dragons where ever bought or sold, for each night, the shop owners daughter asked a dragon if she could transform into it for the night. The dragons always said yes, and so each night, in a different dragon body, the shop owners daughter, Laupin, wandered around, and was content.
