It was lunch and I was eating when someone taps me on the shoulder."Hey Herc!Um Me,Alex,James,And John need to talk."Amber said.

"Sorry Amber but it's Alex,James,John,and I."Alex corrected.

"Uh sure."I fallowed them to outside."what's up?"

"We all are part of the Elements,a super human group to protect humans from the dark ones."Amber Explained.

"Herc this sounds crazy but it's true."James said.

"Hey would we lie to you?"Alex said.

"I wish I could say that they were wrong but then I would be lying and I could never do that."John said.

I blinked."well that's really cool!"I said.

"Really?!"they all asked.

"Yeah I mean-"the sky went purple.People fell to the floor crying or saying disperse."what the?!"

A man with his hair pushed to one side of his head."Welcome back to the puppet show!"he said.

"Puppeteer!"Amber screamed.

In unison,John,Alex,and James yelled,"Element Equip."

With that they changed and transformed.

James what wherein all gold armor."I'm as good as gold."A silver sword appeared in his hand."Im the golden knight!"

John was covered with teal scaly armor.A lapis stone appeared on his arm."H2 oh yeah!"a harpoon gun was placed in his hands."I'm the Soldier of the Sea."

Alex was covered in orangish red armor.A Jasper stone appeared on his arm."I'm fired up!"a fire wand appeared in his hand as it caught fire."Im the Blaze of Glory!"

"Blaze!I have a splinter to pick with you!"the Puppeteer said as he made to puppets charge after him.

He used his fire wand to attempt to set it on fire.Though it just sucked up the fire and used it itself."like the new feature?"the puppeteer said.

James was loosing to a one on one fence off with a puppet.

The puppeteer mad two new marinate controller with no puppet at the ends."I need some new puppets."his giggles evilly.

John shot at the puppeteer.

But the man had other plans.he levitated the marinate controller over johns head and the strings tangles him.He fought and closed his eyes as he screamed in frustration.When he opened them they glowed a light purple.he stoped struggling and started to shoot at Alex,who was now running for his life.

"Herc!Become the Soul of Stone!Say element equip and let it happen-"the strings of a marinate controller entertained her.Her eyes were the same  light purple.Her hair began to float around her. A transparent white cape formed on her back.bronze armor appeared on her.Brown leather gloves covered her hands.Black leather boots appeared on her feet.he red hair swirled till it became a mechanic's messy bun.Two daggers that looked similar to that of clock hands appeared.

I didn't know what to do.Then I remembered Amber's words."Yell element equip..."

"Element equip!"I yelled.Tungsten armor covered me.An Onyx stone appeared on my arm."it's time to Rock!"A chained ball with spikes on it appeared in my hand."I'm the Soul of Stone!"

"More Elements."the puppeteer said.

I swung the chained death ball around until it felt fast enough to throw at him.It hit him right on the head.He disappeared.Amber turned back to normal.John and Amber's eyes went back to normal as they shook their heads.

Alex quit running away from John and ran onto him.

I untransformed along with everyone else and we all went back to the squad.I looked at Amber's necklace and confirmed that it was when a new element was summoned.A round onyx was now part of the necklace.

This is a party for the mind.
