Over time Liam got the hang of taking care of the little wet baby. He didnāt know what to call her though. When he went scuba diving he would collect items. The curious baby always looked through the collection, finding the coral fascinating. With this he named the baby Coral.
āCoral! Coral!ā The baby repeated. As the baby grew she learned how to control her powers more. Liam taught her what appeared on Liam's doorstep one day, he was not prepared for it.
As young Coral was sleeping, the doorbell rang but with an urgency of something that Liam felt. He opened the door to something rather different from Coral. Could it be another element? Or was it something different from the elements? The young child lay there undisturbed, giving off a red glow.Ā
He grabbed the basket only to be attacked by a burst of flame. Luckily, Coral woke up and blasted water to block the flame from hitting Liam.Ā
Liam gasped, barely choking out the words, āThank you Coral.āĀ
āNo problem!ā Coral chimed back. In her normal cheery voice that Liam recognizes always.
He realized that this was another one of the elements but this one was going to be a challenge. He would have to keep Coral and the new child separated or one could do something to the other. He would have to protect himself from the flames and make sure his own house doesnāt burn down.Ā
He looked around his house for anything he could use as a shield when he found a trapdoor. He opened it and felt a cold rush of air as he climbed down the dim ladder. Down at the bottom he found a dim room with books.
He pulled one out listed āFireā. He read something that didnāt make sense but whatever he read spirits whooshed around him and disappeared in a blink of an eye. He tried using some fire on the walls to see if it did anything and when he tried it the wall stayed fine.
He checked on Coral and she seemed fire proof too. Finally relieved he went to bed. He felt a surge of urgency as he laid down. He nodded it off but when he woke up next morning the new child was gone. Liam ran frantically searching left and right. He caught the tip of the new child when he felt the transformation again.
This time he was in a phoenix body. Liam figured out how to control himself after what happened last time. He followed the trail of fire feathers to see the new child knocking multiple items off the shelf. Liam chased after the child rapidly. Liam cut her off at the corner but she managed to break through. This time he pulled a trick forcing the new child to get caught.
Ā As she lay in the wicker basket, accepting defeat, Liam changed back to normal and put the sleepy baby in her new crib.
