VIII. The Battle

Dire and Lilith were sitting in the Frosterian throne room, ruling alongside each other. They smiled brightly, for the two of them thought nothing bad could happen.

But they were wrong.

Someone started banging on the palace door, trying to break it down.

"Dio's army's here!" Dire said.

Lilith stood up. "ATTENTION, EVERYONE!" She shouted to her subjects. "We are headed for a great battle with the forces of evil. Dio has attacked our kingdom for far too long. We must stand and fight as one!" Lilith lifted her ice fan into the air, and the fighters raised their weapons, too.

Just then, Dio and his army broke down the doors and flooded the throne room. The zombies started attacking the Frosterians, but they fought back. A zombie ran towards Dire, about to attack him, but Lilith defeated it with her FrostFan.

"Thank you, Lilith," Dire said.

"No problem," Lilith replied.

The battle raged on. The beauty of the Ice against the terror of the undead. Snowy was using an ice sword the fairies had crafted for her. She was fiercely obligated to protect her kingdom.

The Frosterians were winning the battle. Dio's army was starting to wane. He knew he was losing, so he started running towards the Chamber of the Crown. What was he planning?

Dire and Lilith noticed what Dio was up to, so they decided to follow him. They quietly followed him towards the room.

Dio arrived in the small room that once housed the Frostgale Crystal.

"Dio, stop right there!" Lilith shouted. She and Dire had their weapons aimed at Dio.

Dio turned around and grinned an evil grin. "You two have fallen right into my trap!" He unleashed a concussive blast of dark energy from his hands. Dire and Lilith were knocked off of their feet.

Dio walked up to Lilith and looked at her crown.

"Thank you for helping me to get them, Frostgale!" He said.

"WHAT?" Dire and Lilith said together.

Frostgale emerged from the crown. "You're welcome, Lord Dio!" She said.

Lilith stood up. "You've been working with Dio this whole TIME?" She asked, infuriated.

"I'm only doing what I've been told to do," Frostgale said, with darkness in her eyes.

"TRAITOR!" Lilith said.

"It's true! She is a traitor, but she's not working for me! Another force is trying to bring you down, too!" Dio said.

"Wait, do you mean that voice we've been hearing?" Dire said.

"Yes! Fate will destroy the two of you, even if I don't! Even if someone else defeats you, I'll have my revenge!" Dio said.

Frostgale's eyes started glowing pink, and Fate's voice started coming out of her mouth. "You will finally learn not to trifle with fate." She outstretched her arm and blasted Dire and Lilith with lightning!
