Chapter 17
Scarlet's POV
"I think Serena can control the earth element aside from air." I told Erin.
After Serena left, I called her here. She needed to know what was going on with Serena.
"That was what I thought." She answered. She's holding a book and she's reading but I know she isn't actually reading.
"Base from her story earlier, I am quite sure of it." I sip from my coffee. "You think she can control the remaining of the four magic elements?" I ask her.
She sigh. "I guess? Since her Father can control those four, I hope that is the situation. I don't want her to have the white magic too."
I nodded. Erin could also control the four magic elements as well. But she had the white magic. The strongest and destructive magic aside from the purple magic.
"Any news from Rivendell?" I ask changing the topic.
I don't want to open the topic of her telling the truth to Serena because the last time I did, the outcome wasn't good.
"Send a spy. I had lots of things to do. Let them see if my instincts are right." She stood up, closing the book that she's holding that she didn't read at all.
"Don't include Serena." She said before going out.
"Geez." I muttered under my breath.
Serena will never grow if Erin treats her like this but on the other note, that dummy will got to train first before she will be sent to missions.
"Oh, well. Let's get this done." I picked my cup of coffee as I sip from it.

Jas POV
"Jas! Miss Scarlet is calling you to her office."
I look at my classmate. "Me?"
She nodded. "You should go right now." she informed.
"Okay. Thank you." I answered smiling even if I am starting to get nervous.
Hey, I didn't do anything wrong this days. Because last time that we we're called at Miss Scarlet's office, we we're punished. That was when we skipped our training.
"Jas, I needed your help. You and Max."
I stood up. "Do you mean Max, Miss Scarlet?" Gosh. Please say no. I don't wanna do a mission with that jerk.
"Yes, you heard it right. I am the only Max here. Hot and drop dead handsome, that's me." Max entered inside theoffice with a sly grin on his face.
I rolled my eyes. So arrogant!
"What was the mission about, Miss Scarlet?" He asked taking a seat at the chair infront of me.
He was still wearing that sly grin on his face that I wanted to just rip his face apart. Gahh!
"You needed to go to Rivendell to spy. There was a rumor that Heila had been freed. I needed you guys to confirm if that was true." Miss Scarlet said in a serious tone.
My brows automatically turned into a knot. "Why me?" I ask. Because usually if it's spy missions especially in Rivendell, it's always Jester and Max that is doing it.
"Right, why her? You know she's weak Miss Scarlet." Max answered.
I glare at him. He's really arrogant. "What the hell did you say?!"
"Why---"
But I didn't let him finish his sentence as I kick him.
"Ouch! Why did you kick me?"
"It's because you are so full of yourself! Do you think you are that great?!"
"Woah, chill guys." Miss Scarlet stood up in our middle. "I think it's wrong that I choose you two."
"Choose anyone Miss Scarlet, just not him." I said.
"Choose anyone, just not her." He also said, copying me.
"This is a mission from Her Highness."
I look at Miss Scarlet, shocked. "Her Highness?" I ask.
Miss Scarlet nodded swiftly as she returned from her seat. "Yes. That is why I needed your cooperation. Jester is busy that's why I choose you Jas."
I sigh. I guess I have no excuse anymore. This was from Her Highness and I don't have any right to say no. It has been a long time and it's just now that she mentioned Miss Scarlet.
"I take that as a yes." Miss Scarlet said when we fell silent. "You're going today so go and prepare. I hope you two could bring good news."
Max and I stood up. "You can count on us Miss Scarlet. For Her Highness." Max answered.
Miss Scarlet then smiled. "And please, don't fight." She reminded as we go out of her office.
"This is your fault!" I glare at Max.
"Me? It's you!" He answered.
"I just said that you two shouldn't fight!" I heard Miss Scarlet yelled from her office.
"Okay, let's get this done." Max said.
**
We are here at Rivendell's gate. It's my first time coming here and I am nervous. We disguise ourselves. I was wearing a short wig and added a fake pimples in my face. It was weird but it was not bad. While Max, he just wore a bonnet and put a fake mustache. Also, Miss Scarlet gave us a bead so no one would know that we aren't from Rivendell.
"Are you ready?" Max asked.
"I will never be ready for this!" I said telling him the truth.
I mean who wouldn't get scared? We were just two. And we are here in their territory.
Max laughed. "Don't worry. I'm here." He said and held my hand.
I was shocked. I feel like I became alive when he held my hands. And I feel secured. This is weird.
"Come on," and he pulled me as we enter inside. Hmp.
I was looking at him while he's pulling me and I felt like--- okay. I needed to focus. I am here for a mission not to feel butterflies in my stomach.
I look around and the surrounding was just like an ordinary place but I could feel the dark presence all over the place.
"Let's just walk around. Maybe we could hear any informations." Max told me.
I nodded. We walked around and you can't even see something beautiful here.
"You can't even see any single flower here." I commented.
"What do you expect?" Max answered laughing.
All we could see was just houses and some other buildings were the people are buying foods and such.
"I'm already tired Max. It looks like we can't---"
I stop mid-sentence when I saw someone not far from us.
"Why? What's that?" Max answered and he tried to see where I am looking.
"Shhh." I pulled him. We insert ourselves among the crowd.
"Hey, why? What's going on?" Max asked again but I ignored him.
I am certain it's Cheska that I saw. What the hell is she doing here? Is she... No way!
