Setting: Midnight. Stars hang low in the sky. The campus is asleep, silent. But deep in every corner of the college, the spirit-wielders stir.

📍Aahi's Room
She turns in her sleep. A faint hum begins to echo from her bag. The Fire Spirit Charm begins to glow — a burning amber light slowly expanding outward.
Suddenly — CHANSEY appears at the foot of her bed, wide-eyed and tense.
> "Aahi… wake up."
Aahi opens her eyes slowly. She sees the glow. The heat.
> "What's going on?"
Chansey's voice is serious, for the first time ever.
> "The others… they're waking too. It's happening."

📍Blue's Room
Blue sits up, jolted awake by the icy blue glow from her wrist.
> "Zappy—!"
> "I feel it," Zappy says, appearing instantly, swirling in a whirl of mist. "Spirit energy is surging. This isn't random."
> "Then what is it?"
Zappy's eyes flash.
> "It's a call. The spirit world is warning us."

📍Tina's Room
Terra appears mid-air, shaking her little fists.
> "Tina! Tinaaa! Your bracelet's vibrating like a mole on caffeine!"
Tina groans groggily, then gasps when she sees green vines creeping lightly from her bracelet.
> "Okay what the heck is going on?!"
Terra floats closer, unusually serious.
> "It's starting. Something's moving. Something big."

📍Snow's Room
Puff hovers near Snow, glowing with frost particles.
> "Snowy…"
Snow opens her eyes instantly, sensing the energy.
> "I know. I feel it."
> "The world's shifting. Even the winds know it. Light and shadow are crossing."
---
📍Shine's Room
Sparkle is glowing golden on the edge of her desk.
> "Hearts will be tested. Yours most of all."
Shine clutches her bracelet.
> "Why now?"
> "Because… now the world needs your warmth."

📍Aarif's Room
Aarif jerks awake, sweat on his brow. Sas stands beside him, arms crossed like stone.
> "This… this isn't just spirit awakening, is it?"
Sas replies, his voice grave.
> "No. This is the warning before the war. Before darkness makes its move."

📍All of Them… in their room
> Each of them stands — in shock, fear, strength, or confusion. But one truth binds them.
> The bracelets glow.
> The spirits glow.
> And in every one of their hearts… a message appears in fire, frost, vines, waves, light, or stone:
"The world needs you.
Your bond is chosen.
Now… your war begins."
