Why, hello there. I haven't been on ePals in ages. So, for all you people in this, I'm writing this to put it back on the first page! Maybe we'll come back to it!

Dont forget about this story!!

"We need a new plan!" Zoe screamed the second she reapeared in the cave. But her voice was unheard. Where Ava and Erik were sitting was now an empty space. There was no life anywhere, as far as she could see.

"Guys?" Pheonix called. "This isn't funny."

Deafening silence followed her call.

Here's my character:

Name:  Amaya (pronounced Ah-my-ya)

Hair/Eye Color:  Dark brown with red highlights

Personality:  She's the delinquent of her school, so people won't talk to her or even look at her.  But, outside of her school, she's considered as the kind and smart girl. She's considered the delinquent because she gets into fights with the popular kids, since they pick on the "weirdos" or the "nerds".  It is said that when the weirdos and/or nerds try to thank her, they see her sad and seriousness nature in her eyes, afterwhich, they decide to leave her alone.

Power:  Able to control and manipulate four elements:  fire, water, earth, and wind.

But, as Lyla sat up, the two figuers in front of her were distorted through the glass and her tears.  As they approached, she realized that they were Pheonix and Zoe. She started screaming, "RUN! RUN! It's a trap!"  But she knew in her heart it was too late.

As Zoe let go of Pheonix, the two ran up to the glass trap.  They saw the sand falling on Lyla, and saw the tears streaming down her face as she mouthed words, as if she were screaming at them.  "What is she saying?" Pheonix asked.  "I don't know, but it doesn't look good," replied Zoe.  When they got close enough, they started smacking the glass as hard as they could, but then they looked at Lyla.  Everytime they touched the glass, the sand whirled around her and started suffocating her. They immediately stopped, and Lyla held her throat and coughed.  "We're coming back for you."  Pheonix whispered.  Lyla gave her a small, frightened smile.  And with that, Zoe placed her hands on Pheonix's shoulders and they disappeared.

I think that would be so cool.

Ava sat down. "I hope they're ok.." She sighed deeply. "I really hope they are. I just want this whole mess to be over."

Erik sat next to her. "Even if they get her, you know it wont."

Phoenix forced a half smile. "Yeppers." Her voice was stiff, and eveyrone could tell she was trying (and failing) to act cheerful. "Any volunteers?" There was a few hesitant exchange of looks. Finally, Zoe's hand slowly raised, not passing her head.

"Count me in." There was identical strain in her voice.

"So it's settled then?" Ava and Erik said simultaneously, causing Ava's face to flush.

"'Spose so." Tommy swallowed. "Good luck."

"You too," Phoenix said to the group of bedraggled teens. "If we don't come back...-"

"We will," Zoe couldn't help but strongly interject before Phoenix could finish her sentence. Her hair glowed pearl white, a sure sign that contradicted her face. Zoe was scared. With a shrug, Zoe blew her pale bangs out of her face, and, following Phoenix's instructions, placed both hands on Phoenix's shoulders. Phoenix closed her eyes, and now everyone could notice her veins shine gold through her closed eyelashes. And then, just like that, they were gone.

Lyla lay curled in a ball, sand pouring on her face, sticking to her flow of tears. Suddenly, she felt a prescence. No, two, enter her field of mind power. She hiccuped and sat straight up lightning fast. They were here. She was going to live.

What in the world has happened to the story? The thing is guys, I would add on, but people keep jumping in when we've already started, and now I get ideas about evil dolphins coming out of the ground. For those who keep joining in, we're already part way through the story, please don't add something random. As for the evil dolphin person, I think you may have posted on the wrong thread. Let's try and get the story back on track.  Thanks!

((PS WHOOP!))

Ava smiled. "Ok, are we going to get started? Pheonix, are you going to take somebody with you?"

I have made a character!

Name: Trisha

Eyes\hair: dark green eyes(like cat's ones) and grey hair with dark stripes

Personality: very funny, very skittish, very cheerful - but she can be serious too

Power: she can turn into a cat(her cat's name is Osoka), she can treat somebody - if she loves that man.

Do you like that?

This is so great. It is like some amazing story all coming together!

Zoe smiled softly and drummed her fingers against the wall. "I know how you guys are enjoying talking about maternity. but don't you think we kinda have something more important to do?" Pheonix frowned but a quick look at Zoe showed her that she was kidding.

"She does have a point," Erik said to the group.

Pheonix smiled. "Haha, right." She picked up the doll and cradled it in her arms. "How's this?" She asked.

"Much better." Tommy nooded.

I'm still here! And I'm ready for our other story too, Katelyn.

Did you guys forget about this story?  Let's add to the story!
