"That was three months before Judas died, Matty. They can't possibly be replacements."

"I guess..." Matt agreed glumly.
"But isn't this place really dangerous for someone to be moving lights around in?" Lucy asked, looking around at all the reflective and refractive surfaces. "I mean one wrong move and you could start a fire. It doesn't seem safe."

"Judas was very good, he had years to practice. He wouldn't do anything like that on accident."

Lucy nodded. "IT just seems strange... what did he mean earlier, when he asked if someone had to start over?"

Kenny sighed. "There are twelve people with these powers, Lucy. They all have an element. You and your brother are light and darkness, I have mind. There's also fire, water, earth, air, electricity, nature, space, time, and life. The thirteenth element is death."

"But why would you say there's twelve and then tell me there's thirteen?" Lucy asked.
"Because she doesn't count." Matt muttered mutinously.

"She doesn't have powers of her own," Kenny responded. "She takes ours when we die."

"And she's actively collecting them." Matt added. "It's sick."
"She's-? That's awful..."

"The church was supposed to help protect us," Kenny said. "But it didn't."

The church was a weapon? It was supposed to be like that? Lucy looked around, and realized that standing at the front of the room where Judas would nearly always be, a person adept at aiming and focusing light could use the numerous prisms to reflect a concentrated beam of light anywhere in the room if he knew what he was doing. Use the chandelier and one could hit several spots in the room at once like a firey burning rain of death. Well not death. But firey burning rain of injury sounded much less cool.

"Do you know of anyone else, besides you and your brother, with powers like these?" Kenny asked.

She shook her head. "We don't tell anyone else about them, just each other. It's our little secret."

Kenny nodded. "That's a good idea. I'll let the others know. In our group, we were all within a couple years of age from one another. You're twelve right? And your brother is sixteen?" Caleb had turned seventeen just a week before.

"He just turned seventeen." She told him. "His birthday was last week."

Kenny nodded. "You might be on either end of the age scale. We'll start looking for these new elementals. In the meantime, make sure no one sees your powers. You can come by the house to practice if you want, Caleb too. Anyway, what are you doing here alone?"
