Morthos muscular arm; he looked taken aback by her forcible action, but led her through with no questions. Garus motioned to Nina to go before him. She did as he gestured. They were gone, Aarion took hold of Trinny just like last time and quickly ushered her through the open portal, it sealed behind them.
     
     
    CHAPTER FIVE
    'The blustery day turned into a blustery night.
    To Pooh, it was an anxious sort of night, filled with anxious sort of noises. And one of the noises was a sound that had never been heard before.'
    - A.A. Milne
     
     
    Trinny opened her eyes to find they were standing in a dark alleyway. It was nighttime. There was only one light that was flickering over a locked door at the very end of the ally. The air smelled foul. Rubbish was everywhere; a large bin that took up a lot of the small alleys space was spilling over with waste, from what looked like food scraps. 
                  "Where the heck are we now?" Emma asked looking a little scared. 
                  "Chicago." Morthos answered abruptly. 
                  "I came here when I was about 10 years old, my mum really wanted to be part of the live TV audience for Oprah." Trinny smiled at the memory, and then turned to Aarion, she noticed he looked distant. His hair was a little tousled, and his eyes looked dark, how can someone look that good all the time, she thought to herself. "Aarion, are we far from the next Elemental?" 
                  "No, not far, the Keitha tracks down the power force of the Elemental, then I let the Cipher know the destination, it opens the closest portal, he must be close. I can see a park across the road at the end of this ally, the Keitha is leading us in that direction, he must be near there, lets move." Aarion's lean muscular frame brushed past Trinny as he lead the way, she felt a tingling sensation at his touch, then she felt a cold small hand place itself in hers and she turned to see her bright brown eyed friend smirking at her.
                  "Don't go getting a crush on some 'fairy boy,' who is most likely going to break your heart my friend." Emma never missed a thing.
                  "I'm not crushing on him. And that 'fairy boy' thing, it just doesn't sound right Em, they aren't some drag queens from Vegas."  Trinny smiled at Emma and her friend gave a knowing look as they stepped out into the cool of the windy street.
    Garus and Morthos had moved quickly in behind Aarion, Garus turned back and urged the girls to hurry. Nina walked out from the alleyway with a sullen look on her face.
                  "Nina, are you okay?" Trinny asked. 
                  "Yeah, I'll be fine. It's just the first time I have used my powers in a battle before."
                  "How did you survive the heat, all those flames?" Trinny asked in disbelief. 
                  "You really don't know much about Elementals do you?" Trinny shook her head feeling slightly embarrassed.
                  "My Gran and I are Fire Elementals, fire burns through our veins." As she spoke the veins on her arms and hands seemed to brighten and you could see the lines of blood, it was like lava flowing through her. "We can draw the fire from our very being, we don't need a flame to ignite, it comes on command."    
                  "That is so cool. I'm Emma by the way, and this is Trinny!" Emma was always so bold when talking to new people; she's the most confident person Trinny had met in her life.
                  "So what are you?" Nina asked. "It's obvious your friend Trinny is an Earth elemental," motioning toward Trinny. "Are you from the Fae realm like those others guys?"
                  "No, I'm just a human tag-along, would be nice to have some cool power though, water elemental would be nice!"
                  "I don't mean to be rude, but why are you here
