5:45 pm

(Ivan's POV)

I stare blankly at the space in front of me; there were pieces of wood littering the green open field with trees surrounding the field in a circle. I stare at the barks of wood on the floor. I lift up my finger and spin my finger in a circle. The wind whistled in my ears as the wind rushed to pick up the bark; once all the wood was picked up, I grouped them up into one pile on the side. I looked around the area trying to find a good place to build a wall. There wasn't one good spot to set up a projector screen.

I take out an ugly green bag with the words Vamvo on the side. I set the bag down onto the grass and unzip the top. Inside the bag were a bundle of thick metal rods with holds on the end of each side all held together by a rubber band. There two two metal rods that had a black piece of plastic that held out three thin rods to the side, I touched the metal rods only to find out that they moved up and down. It took me a second to realize that it stood up in the same exact way as a tripod. At the bottom of the bag was a huge blank white sheet of cloth with a black fabric outlining the edges. There were loops of Velcro on the sides and on the bottom, on the top was a tube made of cloth that went through the top. I pick up the projector screen and lay it on the side. I pick up the metal rods and start scattering the rods all over the grass. I grab the nearest two rods and stick them together.

I grab a rod with the black plastic and connect the two connecting rods and the other rod. I position the rods sticking out on the sides to a tripod-like stance. I plant down the connected the rods onto the ground, the stands were standing up with no problems. I quickly grab the rod with the three rods on its sides and repeat the process. I look over to the rods and sigh as I walk over to the rods. I grab a handful of the rods and head back to the connecting rods. I drop all of the rods except one and stack the rod on top of it. I turn to bend down to grab another rod, I stop dead in my tracks as I realize that I don't know how much tall the projector screen was going to be. I groan as I walk over to the back and look into it.

I notice two L-shaped black pieces of plastic at the bottom of the bag. I pick up the pieces of plastic and throw them out onto the ground. I stared blankly at the bottom of the bag. I shove my arm into the bag and search around for a manual. After just a few seconds of searching, I angrily grab the bag and throw it to the side. I run-up to the bag and kick it across the area.

"Why doesn't it come with a manual!" I walk back to the rods and look down at the projector screen. I grab a rod and hold it up to the top side of the projector. The rod was tiny compared to the screen; I grab more rods and connect them together. I put the rods through the tube. I grab the L-shaped plastics and stick them on the sides of the rods. I use the wind to pick up the screen and carry it over to the stands, I hover it over the stands and connect the L-shaped plastics and stick them onto the rods sticking out the top of the stands. The bottom of the screen waved in the wind: I loop the Velcro straps on the side of the screen around the rods. The screen waved slightly less in the wind, only the bottom of the screen was flowing freely. I quickly repeat the process and step back. I sit down as I saw a tall projector screen standing right in front of me. I sigh as I lift the stand into the air and set it to the side.

"I should have just got someone else to do it." I reluctantly take out a folding chair and place it in front of me. I frown as I realize how big the area was. I groan as I take out two more folding chairs place them next to each other. Before I could take out more chairs, Qaid walked out of the trees and approached me. I stop what I was doing and look over at him. He looked around the area with a surprised look on his face.

"Hey, Qaid."

"Hey," he responded. "Can you help me and Jax cut down trees?"

"You're still not done?"

"Jax sprained his ankle, so it's just me cutting down trees."

"Don't you have anyone who can heal Jax?"

"No," he said shaking his head. I think for just a moment. I take out a small healing potion and hand it over to Qaid. Qaid took it without question.

"Qaid, why don't you get more people to help?" He sighed.

"Setting up a movie night isn't as important as the plumbing system, I'd rather have more people working on that rather than on this." I nod in agreement. Qaid looked down at the potion. "Imma head back to Jax." He waved goodbye and turned away.

I turn around and went back to what I was doing before. I quickly turn back around as I remember one of my first days at the camp.

"Qaid!" He looked over his shoulder with a confused look. "Doesn't the camp have a theater?" His eyes widened, his eyes were full of dread. I moved his hands up to his hand and tightly gripped his hair. He let go of his hair and turned to face me.

"I forgot about it!" He said in a whiny tone. He stomped the ground as he groaned.

"Did Jax forget about it too?"

"Probably!" His eyebrows furrow in anger.

"It's probably better we don't use the camp's theatre," I say in an attempt to calm him down. He looked at me with a weird face.

"What do you mean?"

"Our plan is to improve the camp right?" Qaid nodded silently. "If we make the stuff the camp currently have, useless it might be able to get people on our side."

"The camp theatre has walls and a roof though. We're doing the movie night thing outside."

"But we can build up temporary walls and roofs. We can make it way better than the camp's theatre."

"How are we going to do that? Even we can do that, it's going to take a while to build all of it anyway." I smile as I tell him the next part of my plan.

"We can build the walls out of dirt and mud." Qaid looked horrified at the idea. I grin as I waited for his response.

"Aren't we supposed to make it look better than the theatre?"

"We can use magic." Qaid thought about the idea for a quick moment.

"Not a bad idea, but do we know anyone with that sort of magic?"

I look at the ground and close my eyes. My mind was blank for a while until a mental image of a fox with bright orange fur appeared in my mind. I take a deep breath as I pictured the fox jumping and walking around. My Mp bar went down as I opened my eyes. By my feet was a bright, tiny little fox. Qaid had a wide grin on his face.

"I don't use this ability much, but I think I can make the place look good just long enough for movie night." A bead of sweat dripped down my cheek as the fox suddenly disappeared.

"Can you make the walls too?" Qaid asked. I stretch out my hand with my palm open: I create two tiny ice cubes in my hand.

"I can make it out of ice." Qaid shook his head.

"It would make the place cold, I don't think it can support a roof either." I look down at the grass and try to think of something. I open up my skill list and scroll down. I spot this one skill called Geokinesis. I look at my skills and notice only one skill.

Lvl3(0%) Manipulate Earth- You can move dirt, rock, and sand. Cost per second- 30 mp

I remember getting this from when Sombra first hatched from out of his egg; I've never used this ability once though. I close my eyes and try to imagine the ground beneath me rise. Nothing happened, I bend down and touch the grass. Maybe touching the ground will help. I squeeze my eyes and wave my hand over the grass. My stomach churned as a clear picture of mud running down a river crossed my mind. Sweat poured down my face as I felt the ground beneath me barely rise. I opened my eyes to see a tiny bump in the dirt. I stand back up and concentrate on making the bump bigger.

Before the bump could get any bigger, my head suddenly started to hurt. I stop and step back. My body felt heavy as the bump went down. Sweat kept pouring down my face. I use my shirt to wipe the sweat off my face, only a bead of sweat fell down my face. I take a deep breath as I sit on the ground. Why was that so hard? I get back up and look at my Mp bar and Stamina bar. My Mp bar was almost full, the Mp bar quickly filled up. My body still felt heavy but there was nothing wrong with me, I just felt heavy. Qaid looked at me with worry.

"You okay? I take a deep breath, my head felt light as I breathed out. The feeling slowly faded away as I responded.

"I think I am."

"You should probably get someone else to do it."

"I know someone who can do it."

"Then go get them." I nod as Qaid turned around and walked away. I take out a bottle of water and drink only half the bottle.

"I should probably go get Alice."

6:08 pm

I walk up to Alice's cabin and knock. I wait a moment until the door swung open. A teenage boy was standing in the doorway. I look up at him.

"Have you seen Alice?"

"She went to the market." He stepped back and closed the door. I sigh as I turn around and walk away. I lift myself up into the air and start heading in the direction of the market. It took me a few minutes to reach the market. I land softly on the ground and start aimlessly wandering around.

I walked through multiple alleys before I found Alice. She was carrying a crate with a duffel bag stacked on top of the crate. I walk up behind her and tap her shoulder. She slowly turned around, her she crouched down and put the crate on the floor.

"What are you doing," I ask. She wiped the sweat off her forehead and responded.

"I'm going back home." I point to the crate on the ground. "Oh, that's for wine."

"You're selling wine?" She nodded.

"I told you I was going to sell wine."

"I didn't think you were going to sell it so soon." She shrugged. "What do you want anyway?"

"I need you to make some walls." She furrowed her eyebrows in confusion. "How?"

"I want you to make the walls and the roof out of the dirt." She had an unsure look on her face.

"Isn't that dangerous though?" I shake my head.

"Back in the old days, people used dirt for walls." She stayed silent for a moment.

"That sounds like a lie."

"It's not a lie, Ancient Mesopotamia used dirt as their walls."

"Where were they?"

"Iraq." She stayed silent for a while.

"Are you sure it's safe?" I quickly nod. "Fine, I'll do it."

10: 35 pm

Jax sat against a tree while I and Qaid sat just a few feet away from him on the grass. Qaid bit into a Peanut butter and Jelly sandwich; Jax's stomach rumbled as he clenched his stomach. I saw Alice raising up pillars of dirt in the background. Her face was drenched in sweat. I ignore her and turn back towards Qaid and Jax.

"So, do you know what movie we're playing?" Jax turned to answer me.

"I and Qaid were actually thinking about playing different movies for different ages."

"Is that why you wanted to make three different sections?" Jax nodded.

"So what kind of movies did you all have in mind?" Qaid smiled as he answered for Jax.

"Final Destination, Cars, and Nacho Libre."

"I can get the discs, but can you guys set everything up while I'm in school?" They nod as I got back up. Alice turned her head in my direction. Sweat dripped onto her shirt.

"Gimme water!" She yelled. I begrudgingly take out a water bottle and threw the water bottle up into the air in her direction. She raised her hands up in the air, she smiled at the water bottle. She took a step back, she clasped her hands too late; the water bottle slipped through her fingers and smacked her straight into her face. The water bottle fell off her face and onto the ground. A look of disappointment could be seen as she bent down to pick up the water bottle. I giggle as I walk away. I suddenly hear Qaid yell my name. I turn around and look at Qaid.

"Get snacks."

"Are we going to sell them?" He nodded.

"I'll get the snacks then."

6:45 am

I set up a table and place many different flavors of chips and candy. I get out a piece of paper and take out a marker. I lean over the table as write $10 for chips and $5 for candy. I stand up straight as Alice appeared by my side. She had dark purple bags under her eyes. Parts of her hair stuck up along with her hair tangled while her hair was normally straight. She glared at the piece of paper as I get out a piece of tape and tape the paper to the edge of the table.

"Shouldn't you add other the other currencies too?" Alice asked.

"I would but I don't really know much about how the other currencies work."

"Just give me and marker. Gimme another paper too, I'll do it." She snatched the marker out of my hand, I stare at her for a second before giving her a piece of paper. I guess she isn't a morning person. She furiously scribbled on the piece of paper. She shoved the paper in my chest. I grab the paper and get out a tiny piece of tape. I rip the first paper off and tape the new paper onto the table's edge. Alice yawned loudly. "Do I have to pay for the candy?" I look over at her and slowly nod. Alice whined. "I did everything though!" I sigh as I respond.

"We need the money."

"For what?"

"For future projects." Alice stomped her foot.

"Just let me take some!" I blankly stare up at her. My blank stare quickly changed into a look of annoyance.

"Just take some and go." Alice smiled as she happily looked over to the table. She grabbed a fistful of candy before skipping off. I ignore her and take out a projector. I look down at the projector.

How Am'I supposed to use it?"

5:43 pm

I hold up a nail to the dirt wall and hold up a hammer. Dirt crumbled as I hammer the nail into the wall. I put the hammer into my Inventory and take out a lantern. The lantern had a tiny loop at the top that I used to hand the lantern on the nail. I turn around and look around. Sweat dripped down my face as I saw chairs scattered across the dirt room. At the very far end of the room is the projector screen resting on a small wooden pedestal. My Mp bar slowly went down as the thought of a large, wooden theatre with lanterns hanging from the ceiling lingered in the back of my mind. I take out a small mp potion and chug it down. I walk over to my laptop resting on top of a cart. There was a wooden chair right by the cart's side. I quickly take a seat as Jax came sprinting into the room. He gasped for air as he slowed to a walk as he approached me. I look up at him as he opened his mouth.

"Hey, are you okay?" I nod in response. "In the two other buildings, you're illusions are kind of fading. Qaid just wanted to make sure. If you're already tired, then just cancel the illusions. You can start up the illusions when the lights come back on." I take a deep breath before I responded.

"I'll be fine, I think I'm pretty sure I can last through the night."

"You're already struggling with two buildings, can you handle another one?" I nod silently. Jax silently stared at me. "Movie night is going to start in seven minutes, get some water." I take out some water and wave the bottle in front of Jax's face. Jax nodded before turning around. He looked over his shoulder to look over at me one last time.

"Don't let the children watch the movie."

"If I'm not supposed to let children watch the movie, then why Am'I here?" Jax shrugged and didn't give an answer. "Do you at least know what movie I'm watching?" I open the water and take a quick sip.

"Just movie called Final Destination."

"Oh, okay."

"You sure you don't need anything." I shook my head before Jax walked off. I sigh as I close my eyes. An image of a bright wooden theatre popped up in my mind. The theatre had red chairs that you would usually see in a movie theatre. In the corners were thick wooden beans that went up along the wall and stretched across the roof. The walls were plain white with old paintings of a sea. I look over at the projector, the wall behind the movie screen was also white. My Mp bar slowly turned to gray. I tap my foot repeatedly against the floor. I look over at the computer screen. The computer only showed the words 'Camp Transformation'.

I lean in closer towards the computer. Is this the video that Qaid made? I lean back in my chair and stare up at the ceiling. I hear a crowd of footsteps pour into the room, the footsteps quickly stop as the people took their seats. I look back down and scan the room. I made sure that no children were in the room before using the winds to turn off the lanterns. I lean in towards the computer and press 'Play' on the video. I take out a huge Mp potion and put the water bottle away.

I look over at the projector screen, on the screen was Qaid putting a clear liquid into a beaker. I look back down and drink the potion. My Mp bar filled back up as the blue liquid went down my throat. I put the bottle away and take out a book called The Long Walk by Stephen King. I open up to the first page. Before I could read a word, a pair of footsteps approached me. I put the book and the potion away as I turn my head to the side. I scowl as I saw Wayne slowly walk up to me. I felt mud crawl down my arms as I thought about the last time I and Wayne talked. I stand up and walk up to him.

"You're not supposed to be here," I whisper to Wayne. Wayne gritted his teeth as he responded.

"Can we talk outside?" He whispered back with what sounded like a cocky tone in his voice. I look back at the projector screen and nod. Wayne turned around and walked towards the door. I glare at his back as I follow after him. He stopped right outside the door. I step out and turn to face him. I smile as I see the building was made to look like it was made out of wood. I think I did a great job with the illusions.

"What do you want?" Wayne knocked on the wall and then grabbed a part of the wall. The illusion on the broken wall quickly faded as Wayne stretched out his arm and showed me the dirt. I nervously look at the dirt and back up at Wayne. "Did you tell anyone?" Wayne shook his head.

"I didn't tell anyone, but I will tell people if you don't let me watch the movie." He isn't asking for much, but if he does tell people it will make my plan to improve the camp look bad. I don't know how much damage it will do, it would be better to just watch him watch the movie.

"That's all you want?" Wayne nodded his head.

"I don't care if you watch the movie, but just make sure you don't get caught." Wayne nodded as he put the dirt back into the wall. The dirt spread out throughout the wall, in just a few seconds the wall was back to how it was before.

I stare at the wall before walking back into the building. I walked in just in time for the video to the end, I speed walk towards the computer and put on the movie. I sit down on my chair while Wayne stood by my side. I look up at him before pulling out a folding chair and place it by my side. He quickly sat down and started to watch the movie with a smile. I take out the book I previously had as the opening credits started to play. I glance up at the screen.

The first thing I saw on the screen was a stereotypical jock with the normal high school varsity jacket. Behind the jock was a blond girl with a white button-up shirt. I look down at my book and start to read. I read a few pages before Wayne elbowed my sides. I glare at him in the corner of my eye. He pointed to the screen with a bright gleam in his eyes.

I look up at the screen, the screen showed a brown-haired teen in an airplane seat. The teen looked anxious as the plane started to fly up into the air. The movie showed some of the passengers cheering as the plane took off. The brown-haired teen gripped the armrest of his chair tightly right before the plane started to shake and rumble. The plane calmed down for just a second before the plane started to shake more violently. Lights flickered and passengers bounced up in their seats. I put away my book and leaned in closer towards the screen. Oxygen masks fell down from the ceiling shortly before the sides of the airplane were ripped off by the wind. The wind kidnapped people out of the plane and threw them out into the sky. A sea of flames suddenly consumed the plane along with everyone on the plane. The camera zoomed in on the brown-haired teen being eaten alive before it suddenly cut to the brown-haired teen opening his eyes with a gasp.

There were two girls that asked him to change seats. The teen started to sweat as he leaped out of his chair and ran over to a seat and turned the little knob that would let down a tray. Instead of letting down the tray, the knob was ripped off. I look over at Wayne. His lips looked like they were almost touching the corners of his eyeballs. I tap Wayne's shoulder. He looked over with a bothered look.

"What?" He asked in a hushed whisper.

"What's this movie about?" Wayne grinned before he started explaining.

"So, have you ever had dreams where you could predict the future?" I shook my head. Wayne paused for a moment. "Well Alex, the main character, has this dream," he did air quotation marks as he said dream. "About the plane exploding right." I nod. "Because of him, they cheated death. But now, because they avoided their deaths, death is coming for them."

"What do you mean by that?"

"They're just guaranteed to die now. They were supposed to die in the plane, so now they're going to die in some other way soon." I nod as I turn back to the screen. I can see now why Qaid didn't want children here. I take my book back out and start reading. Wayne jabbed my sides again. I glare at him.

"Keep watching it gets good." I roll my eyes as I put my book away and watch the movie. My body felt heavy as the movie progressed. Sweat streamed down my face with each passing second. My eyes drooped as I took out a large Mp potion. I yawn before chugging down the potion. the potion only filled a quarter of my Mp bar. My body slumped over as one of the characters in the movie walked into a bathroom.

I felt a warm, acidic liquid lurch up my throat. I cover my mouth with my hand as my Mp bar slowly went back down. A bit of vomit seeped through the cracks in between my fingers as more came up my throat. Wayne looked over with a worried look. I forced myself to swallow a bit of my vomit. I stare down at the ground in an attempt to calm my stomach down. I noticed a patch of dirt below my feet. My eyes widened as I realized that my illusion was fading. Wayne lightly touched my shoulder. Wayne's hand glowed a bright yellow as my Mp bar slowly went back up. I take out a plastic bag and use the wind to open the bag wide open. I let my mouth just a bit in order to let the vomit silently slip through my fingers. My body hunched forward as vomit violently burst out of my mouth. Wayne quickly let go of my shoulder and did some hand signs and quickly hovered his hands near the bag.

No sound was able to be heard as the vomit hit the bag. There wasn't even sound to be heard as vomit flowed out of my mouth. My mp bar gradually went back down as my stomach settled down. I put the bag back in my Inventory. Wayne retracted his hands and put his hands back on my shoulder. He took a deep breath as his hands glowed a bright yellow. My mp bar stood at a halt. I wiped the vomit off my lips. Wayne leaned in back while keeping his hands on my shoulder.

"Just get rid of the illusion." I shake my head with ragged breaths. "You have to unless you want to be sick for a couple of days." He whispered in my ears. I stare at my Mp bar, the bar slightly filled with blue before stopping again.

"What do you mean by that?"

"If you're low on magic and you keep forcing your body, you're going to get sick." My head felt light as he finished his sentence. I close my eyes and focus on how the blood flowed through my body. My heart thumped loudly in my ears as I glowed a dim baby blue. "You idiot," he said as loud as a whisper can get. I look over at him as my head started to pound. I grab the sides of my head, my body felt like there was a building holding me down. I felt my stomach start to pulse with pain once again.

I could stop right now, but it might look bad to everyone if I switch off the illusion in the middle of movie night. I could imagine people not wanting to help if I lied to them. I head ringed as Wayne spoke.

"I know you want to look as good as possible so that people can help, but I don't think it's worth getting sick over." I grit my teeth before responding.

"If it means getting as many people as possible, I would gladly get sick." Wayne stared at me blankly. He took his hands off my shoulder and grinned.

"I could help, but I rather not overwork myself helping you." I glare at him. The blue in my Mp bar went down; I couldn't regenerate my Mp fast enough to stop my Mp bar from turning gray.

"What do you want Wayne?" I said desperately. Wayne thought of an answer for what felt like ages.

"I want a water gun." I stare dumbly at Wayne. This has to be some trick, there's no way that he would just want that.

"That's it?" Wayne grinned.

"Just make sure that the water gun is full of water when you get the water gun."

9:57 pm

My quickly tapped my foot against the dirt as Wayne ran up behind me. My head pulsed with a persistent throbbing pain. I look up at him as I hold the sides of my hands.

"Everyone's gone, let down the illusion." I smile as I let my mind relax and slump down in my chair. The room changed into a ugly brown dirt wall. The pain in my head faded away. "You're getting that water gun right?" I slowly nod my head.

"I will, just gimme some time to rest." My body still felt weak, but my stomach felt better than before. Wayne nodded his head.

"Get it by next week, we're meeting up at this same spot on Wednesday." I nod my head as he walked away. When he left the room, a few boxes suddenly appeared out of thin air.

Thanks to you using your skills, they leveled up!

Lvl8 Illusions -> Lvl 23 Illusions

Lvl18 Magic Buildup-> Lvl 25 Magic Buildup

I closed the box and looked at the next box. My eyes widened as I look at the next box.

Thank's to you forcing your body to use magic, you gained more magic!

602 + 25 = 627/627 Mp

I smile as I read the box. Even though the whole experience felt like torture, it does give me a way to gain more Mp without leveling up.I close the box and look at the last box.

Thanks to certain events, one of your perks evolved!

Wayne's white lie (Tier 2)- Magical attacks do 25% percent more damage.

I close the box and close my eyes. My body felt sleepy, I felt my head droop down. My head jolted back up. I get up from out of my chair and stretch.

"I should probably get to bed."
