Elek

=Encounter with the fox. = When he was about 18 years old, he was off exploring the out side of the city. When he was in the library the other day he was looking throw the history section. He found this book called //The Hidden Cave.// He read throw it that night, stayed up really late and found out where this "Hidden Cave" It was in the mountains north of the city. He got up early the next morning and packed a bag. Elek put in the book, ice pick, vine rope, some food and compass. He left at like 7 o clock and took his ice board with him. He walked down the stairs in his appart ment and went down to the northern entrence of the city. The guard asked him where he was going. He replied "I am going to find the hidden cave" He said with a smile on his face. The guard just chuckled and siad that he should be back before dark. If not he would said of the patrol to find him. Suddenly he looked kinda worried even though he had left the city before. The guard asked one more thing, "What is your name?" He replies, "My name is Elek sir." The guard then wrote my name down on the list and then opened the door. He picked up my Ice board and continued out the door. He then put the board down and then stepped on it and bent the water over my feet and then throw my bag on my back and put on my goggles then started bending the water under neath my board and he started to move. Elek went 10 miles per hour until He reached the top of the first hill I came upon. Elek stopped and took out my map and started heading north on unmarked roads. He started down the hill really fast, because he had went down this hill before for practicing for the ice board competition. Elek started to gain great speed, faster then he had ever attempted to down this hill. All of a sudden he lost control and smashed right into his huge ice block and broke from his bonds and went flying like 15 feet into the snow. Elek became unconscious in the snow. The wind started to pick up and it started to snow. Then out of no wear, this man found him and picked him up and put him over his shoulder and walked back to his camp. It was near 3 o clock when he finally regained consciousness. Elek woke up in this hut. It was not as big as his apartment but it was efficient enough. He was laying on this warm couch and with an heat pack on his head. There was some bandages on his head. Elek tried to get up but It still hurt. Then this guy came out into the room. He was a tall human. Elek has not seen a human before in real life. He looked at him in a curious way. The stranger started walking too me and Elek just watched him. The stranger told him not to worry. Elek just watched him go into his bag and take out think vile with this liquid. Then the stranger handed it to him. "Use this" The stranger said. "What is it?" I wondered "And who are you?" "My name is the Fox and in the vile is this special water. Use it to heal your self, it works much better then regular water." The fox said put some stuff in his bag. "Thank you" Elek said. He then started to bend the water out of the vile and put it on his head and started to heal it. Elek was surprised of how quickly it healed his head. "You better be going. Your stuff is by the door." The fox said. "Is there any way that I can repay you mr. Fox?" I looked at him. "Tell me what is going on in this region as time goes by." The fox said getting up and walking to the door. "How will I send the letter to you?" I questioned "Put it under that statue" The Fox said pointing out the window to this statue of this ice bear. Elek nodded and grabbed his stuff and walked out the door. "Thank you" Elek siad to the fox. The Fox just smiled and waved. Elek just strapped him self on to his board and took off. He was not that far from where he started. He looked in his bag and saw that everything was there. He took out his compass and headed in the direction of home.

Biography of Elek.

25 years ago in the renewal time of the year their was this woman in the hospital in the middle of the city giving birth. The woman's name was Ellis. Her husband had died in an accident 6 month’s ago trying to save some of the people in the outer village. Ellis had given birth to a son, Elek she had named her. The name to her ment “defender of life” after what her husband had done to save those people. The baby was taller and bigger then the average Phevyn baby the doctor said but it was still normal. Elek was taken home a few days later with her mother and was being fed more and more as the day passed. Ellis one day took out her husband’s baby clothes and decided to had Elek were them. There was a fleece jacket that and a pair of pants that was just right size for him. The clothes were unique, they grew with the person who was wearing them.

After a year, Elek was about 3 feet tall and was walking about and running like the other kids were. Ellis brought him to school where he would learn how to read and write along with the basic motions of water bending. His father was an expert survivalist and was a master a water bending. On the day that Elek was to start school he had gotten up early to work out that way he could learn the rest of the day. Elek was capable of lifting 50 lb., more then any other person was able too. He was not all the strong looking either. He was tall and slim. He had bright green eyes that shined when the sun shined just right. Ellis thought that Elek was beginning to look like his father more and more. Elek had already grown into he adult teeth. When he went to school for the first time and just saw pictures of other people starting to bend the water. He got a cup of water and had started to bend the water before he even knew how too. The teacher was most surprised from his ability. The teacher went to Ellis and asked if she had taught him anything. She said that she had not taught him anything. The teacher went over to Elek and asked him where he had learned to do that. Elek said “I don’t know, I just did what the person in the picture was doing and just went from there.” The teacher looked at the picture and it was just a picture of a person making a wave. The teacher was surprised and then started lesson. During the day the teacher kept an eye on Elek and every minute she was surprised of how well he could bend the water.

At the end of the day, Elek went out side after his mother signed him out and showed her what he could do. He went down to the river and bent the water and created a massive wave the size of a building and then let it down gently. She was amazed and had a lack of words to say anything. Elek’s friends and their parents were stunned at what he could do. When they walked home Elek asked his mother for a board of ice and when they walked by the shop she picked up a block of ice and carried it home with them. When they got home he put the ice block of the table and got a cup of water. He slowly bent the water out of the cup. His mother was being amazed more and more at what he could. He then slashed the water against the ice block and it cut it straight down the middle. Ellis was so shocked at what he did that she felt like she was going to pass out at what he had done.

She told Elek that she was going for a walk and she went out the door and decided to walk down to the capital building. She walked up the step to the building and went into the room and went up to the desk keeper and asked that she could see Kadeem. Kadeem was an elder of the council that liked to see and talk to the people of the city to see that is going on. He was one of the most loved people of the council. Kadeem was in his office when Ellis appeared. She marched up to him and asked for he to see what he son could do. She seem uncomfortable for some reason Kadeem thought that he should defiantly do what she asked of him to do. Kadeem asked what was wrong and she just wanted him to come see what her son could do. Kadeem got up and walked out with Ellis of the capital building and went to the corner market and got another ice block and continued home. Elek was still playing with the ice and cutting it into smaller pieces. “Elek, can you show my friend here what you can do to this ice block” his mother asked when they got in the house. She handed him the ice block and he put it on the table and got some more water and surrounded the ice block with water and started to break the ice away from the block piece by piece. Kadeem was amazing beyond words. He rubbed his eyes to see if he could believe what he was seeing. Elek was breaking away the ice after a little bit the ice block was no longer an ice block. Elek had turned it into a sign that said “Mother” on it. Ellis and Kadeem were both truly amazed. He then asked Elek were he learned how to do that. “I just figured it out my self and looked at some pictures” Elek said smiling.

Kadeem was truly amazed and asked for Ellis to step out side with him. She followed him out side and Elek started to touch up the sign. Out side Kadeem said that he was truly amazed at what he saw, He had never seen someone show so much skill at such at a beginning age. Ellis told him that he just started school today and that he started bending the water by watching a picture. Kadeem could not believe what he had saw. He said that he was going to tell the other council about her son’s great ability. Kadeem also says that he wants to watch Elek while he is growing up to see if they would be in danger. Ellis seemed cautious that they might think that her son would become a threat. Kadeem decided to go back to the capital and tell the others. When Ellis went back in side Elek was still bending the water and cutting the ice block up some more. His mother knew that he was going to be an important person for the region and the city.

Over the years, The council had people that would check up on Elek. By the time that Elek was 15 he was almost fully grown. His antennas were fully grown and he was just about 6 feet tall. His water bending ability had grown considerably in the past years. He became strong water bender. He had also grown a new hobby. He had found a new way of transportation. He had invented an ice board that can travel on ice and you could use the bending to make you go faster if you are in a hurry. It became a new sport that every kid did at they age. He was training for the ice board competitions. The ice board competition was the biggest competition of the year. It happened in the middle of the time of Celebration when it was warm enough for everyone to be out side for long periods of time. Elek had been training for seasons and tuning his board just enough that it would slide over every type of ice and snow. Elek was proud at what he had created for the region. During this big competition he wiped out big time by not seeing this big rock in his way, he was more worried about getting in first so he hit the rock and went flying 50 feet forward. He bent some water where he was landing into deep snow and he landed softly. When the doctors rushed over to see him. He was bending the water around him without even moving his arms or saying a word. Everyone was shocked at what he could do. He then started to lift him self out of the deep snow and stood back up.

Their was not a scratch on him, He was not bruised or anything. He told the doctors that he was fine and ran off to find his board. He couldn’t find it so he decided to make a new board as quick as he can. He took the snow that softened his landing and turned it into ice and then bent the water around the ice and create a new board that was similar to the one he had made when he was 3 years old. Then he climbed on his board and continued the race like nothing had happened. Everyone seem amazed at what he had done to save him self. At the end of the race, Elek placed 5th out of 6 people. He had gained the reward for most competitive because of his came back after a massive accident.

Years later Elek grew up and trained with a water master and became a powerful water bender.
