CLASSMATE POV-
"Come on guys we're nearly there." We headed to the earth's base.
The voice rang again. "Water group has retrieved a flag, I repeat, water group has retrieved a flag."
"Heh, we are tied, two against two." He gripped the flag tightly,
"Uh guys, why is the flag like… dripping." A classmate spoke out.
"Wha-" he looked down to find the flag transforming into water. "Oh no!?" he screamed.
"It was fake!" another classmate said.
"They tricked us?" We slumped.
"I know guys, let's just go back and get it, we out numbered them last time." I spoke.
"Yeah but how do we know if it's real or fake?" they questioned.
"We just shake them!" a classmate said.
"That's pretty smart, can't believe how smart you are." another classmate said.
"Of course I'm smart" he cocked confidently.
"Let's go then guys! We have to sneak there though!"
"Alright!" We all followed.

NERINA POV-
I sighed in relief after a completed mission. I wish I could've helped the people affected by my power.
"Nerina! Kieran is here!" Kyomi squeaked.
"Hey guys." Kieran moved closer.
"Where were you man?" Kento smiled.
"I had to tell the nurses about my medication" he started. "The ones that link to my powers."
"Bummer!" Kyomi laughed.
"Yeah, I guess it is," Kieran said standing next to me.
"A flag! You did it again Nerina!" he grinned.
"Yeah, you're right, but I couldn't have done it without Kento and Kyomi." I replied.
"Yeah, teamwork does wonders" Kieran spoke again. "One more and we win!"
"I'm so happy everything is going well!" Kyomi added.
"Your power is so unique, you shouldn't be embarrassed about it" he whispered.
How did he know? Does he have similar powers? A power he hates like me?
"We have 5 minutes to win, let's start a plan." Kento said
"Children!" the Head waved. "Can someone inform me on what's happening!?"
"The Head!?" Kyomi's eyes squinted.
"Um, we are planning to take the flag sir, it's a test of weakness" Kento answered.
"Fun! " he smiled. Pulling us in a circle, his hand brushing against my stomach. "I hope you all win, I'm counting on you okay?" he patted Kieran and Kento's head.
"Well" he pulled away. "I will be rooting for you all, I'll be heading to where the teachers are" he smiled, a smile that never met his eyes.
We all nodded and waved, watching as he walked away.

TEACHERS POV-
"Hah! I knew my class would win!" Nami cheered. "You know Xiang you're too focused on academics, look my class is doing better!"
"I do enjoy academics, Nami…" Xiang spoke softly.
"Boring!!" Kasem yawned dramatically. "But I'm so angry! How did they fall for a simple magic spell!?"
"They're kids Kasem," Hoa said.
"Shush, he's here," Xiang said, moving her umbrella above her face.
"Tsk." Kasem spoke under his breath.
"Calm down you all" the head spoke authoritatively. "I took a little detour, examining the students" his heels clicked on the hard floor. "It seems like we have some powerful students this year. " he let out a familiar smile.
"We are training them, they're still kids" Xiang shuddered.
"We are running a little test on-" Nami started.
"- on their weakness" the head jumped in. "the kids explained everything to me, fascinating actually"
"Yes," Kasem whispered. "Well, I'll watch you all"
The room fell silent. Nami exchanged glances with Xiang and Kasem.
"Actually," Hoa spoke. "I have to discuss winter break with you"
"Oh?" The head lit up in surprise. "Okay, you're right, we do need to sort that out" he clapped his hands "well I'll see you all later."
Nami mouthed a quiet thank you to Hoa before he and the head left.
"That was stressful," Kasem said.
"I'm glad Hoa brought it up, if he realised Nerina's power, who knows what he'd do with her" Nami frowned.
"You're right, we have to be careful. I know he'll do the same thing he did with us. " Xiang sighed.
"Oh right.." Kasem added.
