Serena's POV
I wince when the air arrow that I summoned hit the tree. After my class ended and my encounter with that weird woman again, I came right away here at Cassopeia.
I can't find Aya so I decided to am here at the Mystic Forest. This area is secluded and peaceful since everyone is scared to come here.
I summon yet another air arrows. I was practicing how to put fire at the end of the air arrow like what I did in the forest. I didn't know I could also control fire. Well, atleast that was I know. I mean, I saw how the red blazing fire was put right at the end of the air arrows that time. My eyes don't lie.
I tried to flick my finger but the air arrows boomed into thousands and before I could control it, it hit the trees infront of me.
I gasped when the tree was uprooted on the ground. And another one. And another one.
"OH MY GOD!" I screamed in panic when the trees around the forest we're being uprooted one after another.
"Hey wait.. yah!" I yelled hoping the trees would hear me out. Okay that was actually stupid of me but you can't blame me.
After the last tree was uprooted, finally it stopped. And I also stop jumping, not knowing how to stop them.
"What the hell." I muttered helplessly. It was traumatizing to see the trees uprooting themselves.
"Ohmygod, what happened here?" I heard Calla's voice from behind.
She immediately run towards me. "Are you okay?" She look into the trees infront of us. Specifically to the trees that were on the ground. "What happened?"
I scratch my head. "The trees were uprooted on their own..." I trailed off.
I didn't know if I should tell her that it's because of my air arrows. The forest entrance was a mess.
Calla's eyes widen in shock. She couldn't believe what her eyes are seeing and so does me. I didn't know it would result like that. The air arrows were small. That's why I really panicked when the trees were uprooted.
"What... Are you sure?" She ask. I barely nodded.
"Have you seen anyone? Or have you felt something strange?" Calla ask again, now looking at me calmly.
"Nothing..I am aline here and I didn't felt anything strange." I said.
Calla furrowed her brows. And after a minute, she pulled me. "We needed to inform Miss Scarlet about this."
And before I can say something, she pulled me away from the Mystic Forest.

"I'm sorry Miss Scarlet.." I lowly whispered.
I bit my lower lip. She was just staring at me and I don't know what was going on inside her head right now. After I explained what happened, she ordered Calla to find a book in the library. She said she needed that book but I know that was only an excuse so Calla would leave us. It was okay though. It was my fault after all.
"I didn't know you could control the four elemental magic Serena. I thought you would inherit your Mother's magic but I guess I was wrong."
"Huh? What do you mean Miss Scarlet?" I ask confused.
Miss Scarlet is still wearing that blank expression. She stood up and walked towards the glass window where you could have a good sight at Cassopeia's wide garden and the houses around. The houses was so cute. It looks like small castles that were lined up accordingly.
"What do you mean Miss Scarlet? I don't understand you." I ask repeating my question because she had her back facing me.
Elemental magic isn't new to me because Mom told me about it and Aya also told me about that during my first day here but I was just so confused. This is not a big deal, right?
"You can control the four elemental magic Serena." Miss Scarlet said and this time, she face me. "And about what happened at the Mystic forest, that was not because of the air arrows you summoned. You used the earth element without you knowing."
I blink my eyes multiple times. So that explains why..
Miss Scarlet suddenly laughed that made me look at her. I wasn't breathing normally since I came here because of the facial expressions she's giving me. Ofcourse, I was so nervous. I a new here yet I had done lot of mistakes already.
"You can relax Serena. I am not angry at you, don't worry." She said smiling.
I sigh in relief. "Sorry Miss Scarlet. I didn't intend to do that. I didn't know I could control the earth element."
"That was actually good. How about the water element?" She asked excitedly.
I shook my head. I don't remember me using the water element.
"And the fire?" She asked again.
I shake my head no in response. What had happened way back, maybe I am just dreaming. Right.
Miss Scarlet took a sit. "Okay. Well, for now.." she pause in mid-sentence.
Miss Scarlet was tapping her table with her nails like she was thinking of what she should tell me.
"You can go Serena. And don't worry, I am not angry. Just next time, be careful okay?" She said after almost a 3 minutes silence.
I nodded even if I still wanted to ask a question. Maybe I will ask her some time.
I then bowed my head as I leave Miss Scarlet's room.
Scarlet's POV
I sigh deeply when Serena went out. I know for sure she could control the four elemental magic, just like her Father. She said she didn't encounter the water and the fire element. And it's making me worry about her. Seeing how she almost destroyed half of the Mystic Forest shows how strong she is. And if she can't control her magic properly, she could either destroy what was around her or she could destroy herself. Just like what had happened to her Father.
I know she wanted to ask about something earlier but glad she didn't ask. It's better if Erin will be the one to tell her about everything. After all, she's her mother.
I was just worried what her reaction would be. Knowing she will be the next heiress of Cassopeia.
