Many people have heard of Hansel and Gretel. Apparently, Hansel and Gretel went into a house made out of candy and they were going to be made into pie. But what most people do not know is that the Candy Witch is actually the mother of Hansel and Gretel.

Hansel being my aunt Johanna who was born with the name, Joseph, but changed it to when she went through sex-change surgery. Gretel was my mother Magnolia. And my grandfather.... was the father of Hansel and Gretel just like in the story.

And now... here we were. My messed up family sitting around the dinnertable talking. Johanna and mom seemed to severely dislike each other. More than usual apparently. They couldn't even make eye contact with one another. I own the bakery. Why do I have to suffer?

"[Y/N], can you go to the store?" My uncle asked. "I have to talk to Maggie and Joey about something."

Did he just banish me from the bakery? My home? I left the bakery making sure to grab my sprinkle shaker on the way out. Might as well go to the store. I walked down the street towards the Target a few blocks away.

"The bakery was a new beginning. I would finally learn. But I've been here for three weeks and mom has yet to teach me. She learned from Granny! Why can't I learn from her?" I ranted out loud.

"What are you talking about?" A voice said from behind me.

I jumped at the sound of the voice and, simultaneously, I felt my face drain of color. Had I let something slip unexpectedly? I turned towards the person. There stood Cole Brookstone.

"Hi, Cole. What are you doing here?" I asked him.

"Oh, I'm going to Gareth's Dojo for a martial arts lesson." He pointed his thumb to a place a couple shops down.

He takes Martial Arts classes in the Dojo? Isn't that run by some kind of.... spirited character?

"Where are you headed off to?" He questioned.

"Target. I'm getting some food." I explained.

"You buy your ingredients from Target?" He was asking about cake.

"Yes, ingredients for dinner if that's what your thinking. Bakery ingredients? That's organically grown from a family friend who owns a farm." Yeah, if my second cousin once removed is considered a family friend.

We walked in silence until he left inside the dojo. I continued my trek to Target.
But I never made it. Because someone grabbed my shoulder.

I turned around not expecting to recieve burst of flying pollen/ dust. Magic-cancelling dust. No power. No way to escape. I wasn't able to see their face as he wore a black ski mask over his face snd sunglasses over the eye holes. I wouldn't be able to see whoever it was in the eyes.

His hand lit up with blue flames with water circling around it. The power of the sea's fire mage. And with that new information, I let out a scream.

"Where is the Crystal Cauve of Oldese?" The what? "We know you have it, [Y/N]."

They knew my name!!!! This is not the time to start panicking. Just calm yourself down. Careful. Don't blow up. Control your breathing.

"I-i-i-i don't know what you're talking about." I stuttered.

"I thought you might say that. Anyway....Miah Tayir Alfyniq!"

His fire was shot at me changing into a Phoenix with a swirl of water all around it. The firebird shot down at me and I flew back as the fire phased through me. Pain rang throughout my body and I could feel my insides scarred by the fire. I have no magic to counteract his attacks. I don't have any clue as to what is happening.

"Iugum Ferreum Magma!" His hand glowed black with red surrounding the outsides.

I felt my insides burn as what appeared to be molton rock came oozing out of my burns from the phoenix. Once it touched the ground, it changed into red substance. Blood. The iron in my blood. What the hell! Pain is all I seemed to feel.

"Now, tell me. Where is the Crystal Cauve of Oldes?" He asked again.

"Still have no idea what you're talking about, but..." I put my hand up with the shaker in my other hand. "If you keep attacking, then I'll use my only means of escape."

A bright black ray with white and yellow light radiating off it shot out of my hands incasing my attacker. I was the master of the stars. I controlled Stars, Nebulas, constellations, and the energy that connects it all.

"But I have more tricks up my sleeve than sprinkles." I put the sprinkles into my pocket.

"Why you little evil pest!" He hissed.

Then out of normal water, fire, ice, and lightning shot at the guy simultaneously. I looked up to see the supposed saviors of Ninjago. Minus Green and Black. Red, White, Blue, and Pink jumped off their dragons as the reptiles dissolved into dust and particles. Cool!

"I do hope you're okay, [Y/N]." Pink said. She was definitely a female. A female with a voice I know I've heard somewhere who also knew who I was.

"Come on, K-Red. Let's take him to jail." Blue told Red picking up the masked villain.

"Pink, you mind taking her home?" Red turned to him.

They all sounded strangely familiar to me. Like I've met them before. Perhaps they were customers at the Bakery? Or teenagers who went to school with me? That's what sidekicks are in DC. Tennagers still in school.

"Alright. Come on, [Y/N]. I'll take you home. Oh, and boys..." the three turned to pink. "Don't tell Black that she was a victum here alright."

Wait. Why should they not tell Black about me? I was utterly confused. Completely and utterly confused. So, I did know them. I just didn't kniw how. Pink took me home on her dragon and we came to my house. She left me be and I went inside.

I was meeted by a hug from my uncle, Johanna, and mom. They must have been extremely worried about me if this is their reaction. They probably heard about the attack.

"[Y/N], what did I tell you about using your elemental power?" Mom scolded me after the hug dispersed.

I rolled my eyes. "To not to use it here. But mom, what is the Crystal Cauve of Oldes?"

Mom's face whittened drained entirely of color. I was about to ask again when Joey stepped in. "We have no idea. It's one of mom's secrets that she never told us about. Don't worry about it."

"Don't worry about it??? I was just attacked by someone who wanted to kill me because they thought I knew where it was!!!" I shouted.

"[Y/N], that's enough." Mom said.

"You obviously know at least something about it. Let me help you with whatever it is that is-."

"I said ENOUGH!!!" Mom never raised her voice.

She was scared. That was a sign she was terrified.

"Come on, [Y/N]. I'll tend to your wounds. Just Feel Invincible, alright?" Johanna said.

How am I supposed to feel invincible when the one person who already is is terrified out of her mind?

Sorry I haven't updated in awhile, but we now have the main conflict. List what you think is the Crystal Cauve of Oldes! I would like to see what you come up with.
