The fire kingdom had been testing out their inventions and monitoring the earths core health, the water tribe splashing in the lake, the air clan dancing with the wind and the earth village just basking in the sun. Everything was peacful, up until the earth shook and the air filled with the loud high pitch sound of something entering the atmosphere.
Everyone looked up to the sky to see a white sphere like shape on fire while crashing into the land not too far away, sending shockwaves rippling around the land near it.
The elder tree looked up at the streak in the sky. "They... are... back..." it spoke in a raspy voice that echoed through the air.
The firedome looked over the trees to the commotion. "Send the obsidian knight and Amber of the hearth to scout the area for damage"
The wind villagers already at the crash sight, waited for backup.
"What do you think it is, elder?" One of the wind spirits flew beside the elder trees head. "Is it another broken piece of a space shuttle?"
"No... this... is... recent..." the humanoid tree spoke, stringing his words in a slow motion.
"According the the scans, its made of a mixture of different metals" Amber Of The Hearth looked at the digital holographic screen emitting from her forearm.
"Has there been any signs of aggression from anything inside?" The Obsidian Knight was quick to unsheath his sword.
As everyone spoke amongst themselves of what this strange object could be, the capsule opened up, and out came a strange creature, falling forward into the dirt.
"What is that?!" Amber went forward only to be stopped by the knight.
"Dont go any further, leave it to me" he stepped forward and took a good look at the unknown creature.
"It seems unconscious" his deep voice spoke to the others.
Everyone gave a sigh of relief, stepping forward.
"It looks like someone from the water tribe..." one of the air spirits looked closer at the creature.
"Maybe a failed experiment?" Another piped in.
"But they never have failed..." one of the earth beings stepped in.
"Look at his hair, and his flesh... he does not posses the looks of a merfolk..." amber pointed out.
"What do you think, elder tree?" The knight turned his body to face the giant humanoid tree.
"I haven't... seen them... in... eons..." he breathed, his raspy voice almost getting lost in the wind.
"What do you mean?"
"This... is... a... human..."
