Skye Lightwind

"Alright," I said to Artemisae, but I was really eavesdropping on Fire and Harmony. Having air powers can help with that.

"...not being a Judge, Nocturne. Not one bit," Fire was saying to Harmony. Who's Nocturne? I wondered.

"What? It isn't sabotage; it's adding excitement!" Harmony replied. I had no idea why Harmony replied to Fire's question directed to 'Nocturne'. Slowly, I put two and two together.

"Artemisae?" I turned to her.

"What?"

I looked at the stage where the paramedics took the drummer kid elsewhere. "We've got a show to save."

The mayor was announcing the next performers. "And next, we have-"

"Skye Lightwind and Artemisae, performing an elemental duel! They are true magicians!"

The mayor actually said some kid's name, but having power over air, I changed the soundwaves into Artemisae's and my name.

People cheered as we walked onto the stage. I could see Harmony (or should I say, Nocturne) glaring at me. Artemisae and I faced each other.

A while back, I explained to Artemisae how Harmony turned into Nocturne and was sabotaging the show. How we had to pretend to fight with special effects for the show.

"But why can't we just go up to her and take her down?" Artemisae asked.

"Not everyone knows that she's evil," I said, "plus, if the audience wants a show, we'll give them a show."

"Alright."

I didn't realize it, but after Jem died, Artemisae became my best friend.

So, back to the stage, now.

We faced each other and I gave Artemisae a silent nod. And then we fought.
