The Morning Comes and Leo wakes up.
"Ah, What a good night's rest."
He says as he gets out of bed and walks to the Main Hall.
"Happy Elemental Day everyone!"
He said Excitedly.  Leo runs to the Main Door to leave the castle but The King walks in front of him. "Where are you going young man?"
The King says.
"I'm going to get some food for the castle of course."
Leo says in an impatient voice.
"But, we have food here my boy?"
The King says looking at Leo.
"C'mon dad, it's an Elemental day let me go out just for a bit please?"
He says in a Nice way.
"Oh okay, Just don't be out too long son, be back before dinner."
The King says
"Thank you Father!"
  He says as he walks out the door. Leo walks outside and gets ready to tell the kids more stories.
"I'm excited for today. I feel like today is going to be a new adventure!"
He says to himself. He walks over to the location he usually tells stories to the kids and the kids sit there and wait.
“Yay!”
says the children laying down waiting for Leo to sit in front of them.
“Happy Elemental Day everyone!”
Leo says Happily. The Kids all welcome him and wait for another story.
“Mister, Please tell us a story about the Elementals.”
A little boy asked.
“Okay, This story is my favorite!”
Leo says as he gets ready to tell the story.
“Well this story is about how the Elementals were made..”
Leo is interrupted by the same teenage girl from yesterday.
“Hey! You lied to me, you never came at one in the morning, he is a liar, everyone shouldn’t listen to this boy!”
as she yells. Leo grabs her by the hand and tells the Children.
“Can you excuse us for a moment?”
as he walks away from the Children and starts talking to the girl.
“What are you doing?”
She asks as he pulls her closer away from the kids.
“I was asleep and I forgot so I'm showing you now.”
he tells her. She stands up straight and acts tough and brave.
“Oh, really, what are you gonna show me at your home? A garbage can? A mud pile?”
she says in a sarcastic way.
“No.. something way better than you can imagine. Let’s just say there's more that meets the eye.”
Leo says with a smirk on his face. They slowly walk towards the castle’s walls.
“Wait wait wait? It’s outside the wall?”
she says in a scared way.
“Yeah? And?”
he says in a confused tone.
“Um, I’ve been outside the castle's walls. My mother says it’s a dangerous place out there.”
she says as they stop in front of the wall.
“Well, We can turn back if you want and we can just live our lives if you want.”
Leo says in a funny way.
“No”
says the girl trying to keep calm.
“Let’s go then.”
as he presses down on a brick opening up a secret passage.
“Wow, How did you know this was here?”
Says the Girl.
“Um, just because you know it’s a secret.”
Leo says in a scared way.
“Okay?”
she says in a confused way.
“Okay, let's get a move on”
Leo says in a passionate way. They both walk through the secret passageway.
“Wow!”
says the Girl, seeing nature and trees for the first time and a beautiful river that rows side to side in front of them.
“It’s beautiful!”
The Girl says in a happy tone.
“I never knew how much was out here.”
she said, amazed.
"Yeah, it's a Beautiful Place out here and can be very dangerous."
Leo says to The girl as she's amazed.
"Welcome to the outside world."
Leo tells her in a happy tone.
"Wow, I wanna see more!"
She says to Leo.
"Let's go then, let's just get back before dawn
Leo says to the girl, amazed about everything. They slowly start walking closer to the River rowing over and over.
"All I thought all that was out here was mud and dirt."
She says.
"There's more than you can ever imagine out here, Here you can be free to make your own choices, not like in there."
Leo says sadly. She looks at him with a weird look.
"Why are you so worried, you're just a village boy just like me a village girl."
She says in a confused tone.
"Haha, yeah a village boy."
Leo says awkwardly. As he puts his hand on his hand.
"So, Why did you bring me out here?"
The girl asks suspiciously to Leo.
"We're going to the Tombstone of elements!"
Leo says in a scary tone.
"The Tombstone? You know where this is? How I thought it was just a myth."
She says Scared and Surprised to Leo as they walk past the river.
"There's more to this world than you could imagine."
Leo tells her with a smirk. They start walking through a beautiful and notorious forest, with trees in every corner and flowers all over the grassy plains.
“Since when has the World been like this?”
The girl asks Leo in a confused manner. “The Elementals made it all, Their powers Fire, Ice, Earth, Water, and Wind all made Earth what it is now.” Leo says to her. As they walk closer and closer into the forest all the good seeing things turn all wicked and nasty, a dark gloomy forest with dead trees all around.
“What happened here?”
The girl asked as she looked all around the dead trees and plants.
“This place is where it all began.”
Leo replies with a sad tone.
“What do you mean? What happened here?”
The girl asked scared for an answer.
“This is where they were locked away for good and controlled for dark manners.”
Leo says to the girl who is confused about everything she sees around her.
“Who controls them?”
She asks. Leo looks down with a sigh and begins talking slowly.
“Indo the master of the Wind used his power against them and made four crystals that go around their neck.”
Leo says, trying to finish his sentence.
“While the crystals stay on their neck the more they will be enslaved under his control.”
Leo finishes his sentence while the Girl is amazed that she has never been told this story.
“Why are we here then?”
Says the girl looking around.
“We’re here because in about five-hundred feet we will encounter the tombstone of the Elementals.”
Leo tells The girl.
“Is the Tombstone It’s real?”
she says while they walk closer to the moldy and dark brick wall of the Tombstone temple.
“Welcome to the Temple of Elements. The last known whereabouts of the Elementals.”
  Leo tells the girl in a scary tone. They slowly walk to the front entrance of the temple.
“Stay Close.”
Leo says to the girl cautiously as they slowly open up the door of the rotten old temple. They slowly walked in the old temple with spiderwebs all around and cracks all around the walls.
