~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I could hear the beating of my heart in my ears, the pounding of our feet on the forest floor as we ran. Up above was the faint flutter of wings as Tsukino passed us. We were in a run for very lives, Riku and I, against an enemy we use to call our sister. We had only a little way to go until we reached my ocean, my home, my base of power. But if she caught up to us before we reached our destination, we were through.
Brandi was her name, and she was the godess of fire. We all lived in a world that was controlled by the great four. Four people destined to rule during their lives, given powers that exceeded normal behavior. They were picked by bloodline, and given to the daughter or son that would carry the powers the best. My name is Kisara and I did have a twin brother. We were close, but the water spirit had choosen me to take it's power and left my brother for dead. Sora was the bearer of the wind, and the keeper of the stars. He was the sky from one horizon to the other.
Riku, the one on the run with me, was in control of earth. He was a wild one, nice and caring with a free spirit.
Our world wasn't the only one in this twisted life. There was only a couple in which we have history and domcumation for. The closer world to ours was the heaven realm, housing beings we call angels. They were our ally so to speak. Long ago they had a big war with the demon realm, and when we came to there aid, they granted us with a contract. For each generation of gods and godess, they would each be granted an angel as protection. Even these many years have past and the contract is still holding up strong. We each have our own gaurdian angels that help us and care for us. My angel was Tenshi. When I had first known about Brandi's intentions, I immediatly sent Tenshi on a mission. I did not wish to have him in harms way. I loved Tenshi more than anything, and it would kill me to see him die for my sake.
Brandi had wanted to become supreme ruler over all that lives in our realm. She wanted to be queen in our little land in which had always been ruled by four. We had opposed, fought, and now ran, in hope to save our lives and those of our people. She had over whelmed us considering she had always been the more cunning sister. We had went to her domain not to challenge her, but to talk to her, to try and stop this foolish way of life. We had been ambushed when we arrived, and we put up as much of a fight as we could. Being only Riku, Tsukino, and I, we were quickly taken over.
The forest started clearing away, thinning out as i noticed the faint smell of salt in the air. A small smile touched my lips as it always does when i am hit with the smell, the smell of home. But as quickly as it arrived, my smile vanshised. Over head I heard another set of wings, I heard another set of foot steps pounding into the ground almost as hard as ours.
I heard Riku mutter underneath his breath, and I too felt the presence of our sister creeping up on us. We would not make it in time to the great expense of my domain.One last sprint and we were out of the trees. Only to far ahead laid the shore. My heart tore as i laid my eyes on such beauty as only the ocean could give.
Riku stopped running, and in the next second he had spun around and grabbed my hand. I'm not sure what happened, but I ended up behind him, his arm outstretched in front of him. Brandi stepped agilely out of the woods, her crimson robe bellowing around her bare feet. She made no noise as she steeped forward.
I heard a noise behind me and glanced back in time to see Tsukino land and walk past me to stand beside Riku, her wingsfolding back into her body as only angel wings can. In front of us, Moeru, Brandi's firecest warrior, and second in command to her tropps, stepped out of the forest too, coming to stand behind Brandi, and up above, Hono'o flew in from the sky, her red tipped wings still fluttering in her attempt to stay airborn.
Brandi smirked, her red eyes glinting. "Riku, stand aside, it is not you whom i wish to ... speak to.
"
"We came to speak Sister, and you attacked us." Riku growled. "I will not let you kill Kisara just because you have issues with her. It's not the way to settle this.
"
" Oh silly Riku, just because i am fire, does not mean I am always about destroying those who oppose me." Brandi chuckled, taking a step forward.
This had been going on for a while now. Here, let me explain. In the olden times, it was said that the four had quickly formed bonds with each other. Earth and water were quickly friends, as was fire and air. This was said to be so, because of the likeness between the powers, the dependacy to help the other. Like water helping earth grow, and air fueling fire. Likewise, there was also... rivalires and problems between the opposite powers. Fire and water. Earth and air. This was said to be since the beginning of time. Yet in the beginning it was passed as foolery, an attempt to overthrow the great four. The four were power and there were those that would stop at nothing to oblirate something as strong as the elements. In the past generations through, those...bonds and rivalires had grown worse.
My father was the water bearer before me, and even in the era, Brandi's mother had tried to kill him. My father wasn't as... non violent as me, and had started a war with her. When we were kids, we had to spend time together, we had to harmonized before we were allowed to take the throne. Even then, the bloodline has it's funny ways. Even then I had felt the hatred radiate off from Brandi, but she had been taught to reserve those emotions until it really mattered. And now it did. When I had became the one in power, my first act was to stop this war, to compromise with her, to help her see the error in her mothers ways. In the beginning I thought it had worked. She was so nice, I began to think that those silly supersations about our kind were false, that this nice quiet beautiful girl could never be trully eveil. There was no way.
But not even a year later, rumors started flying, and the fire domain slowly receeded into a more hidden nation. Air was quick to follow, and they soon became distant. They wouldn't come to meetings when we called them. They refused to even trade with us. We becamed worried, Riku and I, but we decided to let them have their time, to let them work out what ever was bothering them.
Till this day I still felt that we needed to work things out with out any fighting. Our people had gone through to much heartache during our parents ruling. I sincerly thought that we could pass this over with out any more deaths. But of course, my thinking was foolishness. Brandi led a full fledge attackt against Riku's and my domains. We were quick to defend, but of course this through into motion everything. Tenshi, my angel, and my first in command to my troops thankfully took over the war plans on my half. Him and Riku made plans after plans, stragedies and changes. But when this newest request came, To make ammends for her behavior, and Brandi invited us to her palace to offically apoligized, I was estatic. Could she really see the bad things she was causing? Could she finally be tempted to make amends? Of course I had been hurt before, so I did the only thing I could think of. I secured my life. I sent Tenshi off on a fools errand, to prevent him from coming and possibly die for me. I protected the only thing i could. Riku, knowing me, understood fully. I had lost to many precious things because of me personally. At least I could try and save this one thing.
My attention snapped back to the scene before me as i heard the metallic sound of a sword. I looked up, suprised to see Brandi and Moeru pulliing out their weapons. They really intended to fight. I paled. I knew Brandi, and i knew she was willing to fight to the death, no matter who she killed. I just couldn't believe it thought. I just couldn't even began to believe that she would want to destroy her sister and brother.
"Riku step aside," she yelled. I glanced back at Moeru. Moeru was a vicous young lady, her short spiky hair pulled back out of her crimson eyes. She wore a simple back shirt, showing nothing of her rank. Even her simple boy pants did not revail it. It had to have been her sword, Akamitsu. Akamitsu was known throughout the land, with it's finely jeweled hilt, and it's pure black blade. Moeru was not only the second in command, but she was also the one Brandi used to kill those who opposed her, when she didn't want to do it herself. Moeru was public terror. Now Moeru stood silent, Akamitsu held out in front of her with one hand. She was visibly shaking with excitement. Her face was blank, but her eyes gave her away. Her eyes were hungry for a battle.
Hono'o, Brandi's angel had been silent. She was younger then our angels, her face still held it's baby roundness. Her white hair, the trademark of angel DNA, was pulled back in a braid, and now it swung loosly around her as she stayed flying in the air. she wore a red dress, one the ended around her knees, and twirled around her as she moved.
Brandi stepped forward again, and i stared at her. Brandi was gorgerous. She had long black hair, clipped back in a ponytail by a jeweled hair piece. Her eyes, red as was common for the fire godess, was lovely even though they were controted in anger. Her red roded conceled a black dress, slick and tight, going down her body. jewels decorated her neck, wrist, ankles, her hair, ears, waist. All of it was just ravishing. She had the long legs, the smooth face, the soft skin. She was prefect. Well execpt for the whole trying to kill me thing.
"Stop this madness Brandi." Tsukino replied in a small voice. Tsukino was a firece warrior, and an even firecer friend. She was a true gift from the heavens. Like Hono'o she had white hair, cut short, right under her ears, and curly. Her green eyes were always detremined and confident. She wore a off the shoulder brown shirt, with small black shorts. No shoes ever adorned her feet. Her own weapon, a set of twin curved blades, were straped to her back, handles in an easy to reach spot.
I had missed what Brandi had said, but it was Riku growl that made me nervous, and his reply didn't help either.
"Of course she deserves to live. She has more respect for you then you do of her Sister. Stop being so self centered for once in your life, and open your damn eyes." Riku pointed back to me, with out taking his eyes off her.
"She came here to day because she believed you had changed"
Brandi smirked, looking dead at me. "your such a gullible one little sister. Hmm seems a shame i'll have to kill you anyway.
"
Riku let out another growl, this one rasing the hair on my arm. I glanced fearfully at him. Riku was well built, his nice toned muscles showing nicely with her tan. He had brown hair, cut short to his head, and he usually wore the attire of his people, just a common white sleeveless shirt, and pants. no shoes ofcourse, seems like a tradition in our little world. His own sword, a big broad sword, was also strapped to his back, the hilt, a vine curving all around, it's vibrant green going nicely with the blue of the flowers engraved on it.
I just blinked at her, my face trying it's hardest not the show that hurt on it. I replied meekily. "I is not my fault that I seem to be more trusting then you. Maybe that is your problem dear Brandi, you feel as if you are the only one, and therefore must overthrow all those that show you compassion.
"
I blanked out her reply as I concentrated on that power within me. It had always been in the very core of me, my birthright, but only until I had been announced heir to the water domain, had I been able to call apon it. This gift gave me the power to control the water around me, and use it as an defense or offesne againt attack. And thats what I was doing now.
I reached out with my power to the water behind me, the water in which held my base of power. These waters were speacial to me, these knew me from the very beginning of my time. And so the moment I began reaching out, it also reached for me, happy to help me in anyway. I began pulling it slowly towards me, and it happily obligaged. I was glad my blue hair was back out of my face, because right now i didn't need any distructions.
And as if on cue, Brandi let out a shout, "Moeru NOW!!!"
