Title: One Step Closer.
Character: James Potter.
Word Count:100, according to Word.
Challenge: Elements.
House: Ravenclaw.

James doesn’t know which element he most resembles.

Sometimes he is Earth; patient, watching and quietly growing.

Then again he is capricious Fire; his uncertain temper turning to instantaneous white hot flashover and yet he can warm others with his bright spark, feed them with his fire.

Or again, Water; drawing all along on the tides of his enthusiasm.

At times, he is Air; confiding breathless quicksilver thoughts, inspiring others to greatness.

Only when his Horned Head looks back at him does James understand; the choice of Element is not his to make. As with the wand, the element chooses.
