Welcome to Gaia! ::

((this story will use elements XD since everyone seems to be tired of the weapons they used in Burning Wills XD))

Flames danced above buildings, citizens screamed as they ran. Some were frozen with fear, others cried and begged for mercy. None were spared. The cries rang through the town. Bloody swords swifly slicing through every obsticle. A half-dead boy clang to the feet of a soldier. Esan hesitated, another soldier stabbed his sword into the body. Esan watched the body go limb. Screams of citizens caught in the flaming buildings could be heard from other towns. Esan then awoke. He looked at his sheathed sword besides him. "I was only following orders..." Whispered Esan to himself, as he clenched the hilt of his blade. The scabbard was colored with blood. The blade has been passed down for generations, he always kept it near. He looked up into the sky, the sun slowly rose over the trees. The sweet sound of birds chirping filled Esan's ears. He tried to clear the thoughts from his head. He stood up and stretched. "I've avenge them, I'll avenge everyone that I wronged. I will destroy the Northern Kingdom." Swore Esan to himself, as he tied the scabbard with the sword to his side. He didn't wear any armory, his armor was soaked with the blood of the innocent, he couldn't wear it. He looked around the small camp, he couldn't seen the rest of his group. He began to wander through the forest, looking for a trail. They most likey got a head start. The goal for the warrior's was the same. To reach the lake, from there they will hopefully make a new plan.
"What a great day." Said FubukiT, walking beside Becca.
"Yah, it's a great breeze, along with the hot sun still behind, it's perfect." Said Becca with a smile, looking up.
"Perfect for battle." Added Kikyo, walking behind then. A large battle-axe rested on her shoulders.
"Why do you even carry that huge thing around? Isn't it tiring?" Asked Becca, Kikyo grinned and shook her head.
"It's nothing, light as a feather!" Laughed Kikyo. Andrew shook his head. He had his head in his book, he grabbed as many as he could before they fled the kingdom. The books didn't seem to slow him down. Ice floated beside him, which allowed him to see behind him just incase. The group continued through the forest until they came to a trail.
"I guess this is the path he was talking about." Said FubukiT, looking down it.
"It is." Said Andrew, the rest turned around. "I sense water." The group sighed and continued the hike.
Esan was able to see them now. He hurried over to them. "So I guess you all started without me!" Laughed Esan, catching up with them.
"Your a deep sleeper, nothing wakes you." Mumbled Andrew, his head still in his book.
"Hehe, you should of tried to wake him though. It would of been nice to escape that horrible memory." Mumbled Esan, looking down. The group remembered it aswell. "Oh well, that horrible action is behind us now. We set forth on a new journey, a journey to avenge those that were slaughtered. We'll bring justice to the Northen Kingdom."
"Do you think only a small group could do something against a kingdom like that?" Asked Kikyo.
"Remember, we were the elite. We are the Elemental Warriors." Said Esan, with a thumbs up. "They won't stand a chance once we gather a few more."
"Then you'll finally get to use that sword again." Laughed FubukiT, Esan grinned. Esan remembered the oath he made when he decided to break from the Northern Kingdom. He would not use his family's sword on anything but the corrupt soldiers of the kingdom. Once he has brought them to justice, he will be able to use his sword against any evil foe that wishes harm upon them.
"I think we're close." Said Becca, she pointed to the lake. A small island rested in the middle of the lake. On the island, was a small fishermen's house.
"Finally." Mumbled Andrew, as he flipped another page. They made it to the lake. Andrew lifted his palm, and slammed it into the lake. A path was frozen, the group walked over to ice bridge to the island. They were greeted by an old man.
"So you've made it. I guess you plan to begin on the tactics?" Asked the man.
"Yes, we cannot delay." Said FubukiT. "You were always a good tactical general in the military, Bill. Let's hope you can help us again."
Bill grinned and let them inside. They followed him into the basment, which was huge. "A basement under water? Perfect to hide and plan." Said Kikyo, grinning.
"Yep." Said Bill. He sat down and rolled open a map. A huge kingdom showed on it. "As you see, and probably remember, the kingdom is heavily guarded. You'll have to enter from underground." Said Bill, turning to Esan. He nodded. "Now, start at this tree." Bill pointed to a tree on the map, and traced a path to the kingdom. "Atleast a mile walk from underground, it's the only save distance you can dig without being heard or seen. Now, once you reach the mile. Begin your way up, you'll find yourself in the armory. You can get some armor and weapons there. I suppose you are going to try to gather an army?"
"If possible." Said FubukiT.
"Good. From the armory, you can make your way through a few rooms to the guard's watchpost. You can kill them, allowing an army to sneak in. The army should be able to dispose of any other guards outside the kingdom. Now from there, you'll find a large door. The king's throne is there." Bill paused. "You all know how powerful he is, the master of all elements if I remember correctly. Now remember, your army should be able to deal with theirs." He turned to Esan again. "I seem to remember you being a great trainer for troops, you should be able to train your army to be able to conquer even the most elite." Laughed Bill. "Becca, you could always persuade the rest to become human shields. FubukiT, you always could manipulate, you'll find it easy to gather up an army as large as the Northern Kingdoms! Andrew, with all those books you read, you should know quite a few good tricks." Said Bill with a grin. "Kikyo, you could always terrorize them if needed. Haha, this if the perfect team to build and command an army!" He rolled up the map and handed it to FubukiT. "Good luck, I've told you my plan. Now make haste to gather more troops."
FubukiT nodded, and then rose, as did the rest of the group. The walked from the island to land. "FubukiT, should we begin gathering an army? Or just pick out those with Elemental powers?" Asked Becca.
"Just Elementals, the smaller the group, the better. We have to get in and conquer them." Said FubukiT. "The next town has had quite a few rumors, a child that can shape nature." FubukiT grinned.
"Yay, another hike!" Cheered Kikyo sarcastically.

TO BE CONTINUED! XD (maybe XD)

yah XD your the oldest XD thats kinda how i order the things XD

"Didn't expect to see them here." Said Typhad to himself as he landed next to a tree. "I must report this to His Majesty, but first I need to find them..." He paused and looked from the trees. "And kill if they refuse to be loyal to the Northern Kingdom." Typhad sat under the tree and waited, the sun was setting. Typhad grinned, "It's going to be a full moon tonight."
The group made it over the hill, they could see the village. More knights could be seen aswell, they were kicking in doors and screaming commands. Esan clenched his blade tightly. "There are alot for just one girl." Said Becca, examining them.
"Yah, I think there is something more to this place." Said FubukiT.
"Well, in one of my books, there is a legend here." Said Andrew from the back, as he closed his book. "Apparently a dragon resides in the mountains." Said Andrew as he pointed to the mountains, which almost reached the clouds. "The dragon is said to guard an Elemental Gem."
Esan scratched his head. "A what?"
"An Elemental Gem, it will strengthen Elemental Powers if you touch it, and more then one can touch it at a time. But you must all touch at the same time."
The group nodded and continued. FubukiT looked up, "It's getting dark, let's finish these nights and continue our travels, we'll also pay a visit to the dragon."
Kikyo grinned, "Yay!" She ran down to the knights. The shouted for her to stop, but she raised her battle axe and jumped into the air. Her axe one of the knights, the others rushed in. She grinned and then hands came from the shadows and grabbed the knights. The hands then broke the knight's necks, and let them fall. Kikyo held her head high and walked by the dead bodies. The group followed, the sun has now set and the moon was visible.
"Stay out of the moonlight, hid within the shadows." Said Becca to the group, she moved her hand around, changing the wind to blow trees to block the moonlight. "If one of us were to enter, he could kill us."
Andrew grunted, "I can't read without any light." He put his book away and walked.
Becca then stopped and pointed. Typhad's shady figure stood in the moonlight, his blade drawn. "Typhad!" Shouted Esan. "Why are you loyal to the Northern Kingdom?"
Typhad had no answer.
"Do you know what happened to the village we were sent to? The mission you missed?"
"No, nor does it matter. Nothing will shift my alliegence to the King."
"It was genocide!" Shouted Esan angrily. "None were allowed to be spared!"
Typhad didn't flinch nor show any sign of suprise. "The King had his reasons. You mustn't doubt him."
"There is never a good reason for genocide." Add Kikyo. "Killing should be reserved towards evil and only evil."
"Don't doubt the King, he has a reason." Said Typhad, walking from the moonlight, his blade was shining as he stepped into the darkness towards them.
"So I guess thats a no?" Said FubukiT.
"And I take it your not willing to return to the Kingdom?"
The group shook their heads. "Well, you have your-"
"Someone just kill him already!" Shouted Andrew from behind, angrily. "I want to get back to my book. The main character just reached the dungeon! He was about to finally reap vengeance on the Darkness!" Andrew appeared above Typhad with an ice spear. He stabbed the spear into the ground, ice spikes shot out. Typhad jumped back, he bumped into a wall. A stone wall was there.
"No retreating." Said Esan. Andrew continued to jab his spear at Typhad, who dodged each time. Typhad slashed the wall, making it crumble. Andrew tossed the spear at him. It dissolved into the moonlight. Typhad grinned.
"Do you dare to fight me now?" Said Typhad with a small laugh. Kikyo ran in and waved her arm. Shadows jumped from the trees and covered the area. It was pitch-black, no moonlight could be seen. "You think I'm dependent on the moon?" Laughed Typhad. He clenched his fist, then when it opened, a small spining moon was in his palm. He tossed it and it exploded. Shattered silver dust shot like bullets everywhere. Kikyo's darkness absorbed them all. Typhad's grin disappeared. He stuck out his sword, and made a circle in the air with it. A moon appeared, the moonlight blinded them. Cresent moons shot from the moon at them. They couldn't react and cuts and slashes began to appear on then. Everything then went silent. The moon was gone and Typhad was stuck. Vines had covered him completely. Erika just gave a thumbs up. The vines them broke and Typhad jumped into the air. He was able to cut through the darkness, moonlight hit them. He then disappeared, he scowl on his face. When he was gone, the moon was red with anger.
"Wow." Said Esan, scratching his head. "Out of all of us, Erika was the one that was able to force him to retreat..."
"Eh..." Kikyo wanted to fight more. "So next time we see him, we'll have to kill him?"
"I don't know." Said FubukiT. "Let our words sink in, he realize the real side he should be fighting for is."

TO BE CONTINUED! XD

XD should i add romance? i had an idea where the group gets split up by something XD i can have you and fub be in a group XD

"Typhad had some trouble with that group." Said a figure in a tree.
"Yes, they must be dealt with individually." Said another figure, it hissed with excitment. "I can't wait to fight one of them."
"Shall I?" Said another figure, lifting a huge hammer.
"Yes, seperate them." Said the one of the figures.
"So you think there's still a chance Typhad will come to our side?" Asked Becca to FubukiT.
"There's not much of a chance...He has to realize his loyalty is to a corrupt kingdom." Said FubukiT.
"What if we run into him again next time?" Asked Esan.
"Then we don't hold back, he kill him if he hasn't chosen to side with us." Said FubukiT.
"It's the mountain!" Shouted Kikyo, pointing over the trees.
"Hehe, finally." Said Esan with a grin. He began to run to it, as did the rest. They reached the beginning of it, a small sliver of land stretched to it. They began their walk across, they started to hear laughter with each step.
"Haaaa!!!" Shouted the figure with a hammer, appearing above them. They tried to get off of the small land they were on before his hammer reached them. They were too late. The piece of land exploded, earth spikes shot everywhere. Dust and dirt covered the area, two fell off one side, two fell off the other. Esan's eyes flickered a dark green before the hammer hit and rocks swirled under him, keeping him and Kikyo afloat.
"The figures gone." Said Esan as he looked behind him. "What!? Where's the rest?" Asked Esan.
Kikyo shrugged. "Can't wait time guessing, let's move on. They're strong, they'll make it." Said Kikyo with a grin, as she walked on the darkness to the other side. A piece of land shot Esan over to the side. They began to make their way up the mountain.
"Ugh..." Andrew sat up and rubbed his head. "What!?!? Where are my books!?" Shouted Andrew, running around. Erika sat up and looked around. She yawned and stood up, she calmly stared at Andrew, who was hitting his head against a rock. She shook her head and a vine shot from her palm, wrapping around his feet. "Hey!?" She began to walk into the darkness, dragging him with her. "I can walk on my own!" Shouted Andrew, squirming. "Brat!"
She turned around, her eyes glowing a light green. "You talk too much." Andrew then decided to shut up. She dragged him along the rocks.
"Ehh." FubukiT scratched his head. He noticed Becca lying next to him. "That was some fall..." He began to shake Becca. "You ok, Becca."
"Yah yah." Said Becca, sitting up. "Where are we?"
"We got seperated from the group." Answered FubukiT, looking up. He then stood up and helped up Becca. "Well, let's try to reach the mountain's peak, thats where the rest are probably heading."
" 'Probably'." Said Becca mimicly. She got up and stretched. "Well, let's go."
Becca led the way and FubukiT followed, they heard moving in the darkness.
"So the group was broken up?" Hissed a figure, coming from the shadows. "Perfect."
"Who are you?" Asked FubukiT. The figure laughed.
"My name isn't needed." Said the figure stepping out. "I'm only but a Shadow." Laughed the figure.
It jumped at them, a kama in each hand. He slashed at them, fire shot from FubukiT's palm. The figure laughed and jumped. Becca controlled the air and had it become condensed and wrap around the Shadow's ankle. She pulled and the Shadow slammed into the rocks. He got up and wiped the blood from his shadowy face. "Blood from someone as pitiful as you? It's a disgrace!" Shouted the Shadow. He jumped kamas in the air. Becca swirled up wind, but he was uneffected. She braced herself for the attack. The blades were caught, FubukiT was infront of her, the kamas digging into his arms. The Shadow laughed. The kamas left deep cuts in his arm. He then grabbed the Shadow's arms. His eyes glowed red, the arms turned to ash. The shadow shouted as he move back. FubukiT ran after him. Becca joined in, air whipping around her. The condensed air caught his neck and held the Shadow up. He shouted curses, FubukiT slowly lifted his palm. Fire swirling around his arm. The fire shot out from his hand, engulfing the shadow. When the flames cleared, nothing was left. FubukiT held his arm, and wobbled.
"FubukiT, why?" Asked Becca, as blood leaked from his arms. He just shrugged and smiled lightly at her. Becca then had a small smile, then hugged him. "Thanks." Whispered Becca.
"No problem." Said FubukiT quitely as they embraced. She helped up FubukiT, he could barely feel his arms. They walked side by side through the crevice, searching for a way up. She held on to his limb arms as they walked. They quitely whispered to eachother as they continued down the path. (Theres your romance XD)


TO BE CONTINUED! XD
