The Phoenix Order

Negotiation: Underworld

Abigail and the band of soldiers, all fighters from the other realm was walking towards where the camp was, "I'll handle this," Abigail said as she stopped in the cave entrance, she walked inside, her men were surprise to see her back so soon, "Lady Abigail," Ignis said as he bowed to her, "Why are you back so soon?" The mercenary said as he got back up. "Get the soldiers ready, we must act quickly, I have the reinforcements here."

"Zorina?" Anatole said in surprise as he was polishing his Double Bladed Sword, "What's wrong brother? surprise to see me here?" She asked in a cocky voice, he only shook his head and went back to polishing his sword, "Mother told me that this will be like a siege Zor, we will storm the kingdom of the underworld and from what I've learnt from that mercenary, Ignis, it's changed. Like a whole lot." She sat down near him as she looked at the pendant, it was glowing gold and looked at her brother's, it was fiery red with some strikes of orange, "Say brother, haven't you noticed that when we got our powers, we also got these necklaces, even the others have these." "I did notice, they must be connected to something," Anatole replied as he suited up, "It is all connected your bird," Nikandros said as he walked beside Kofi, "You know kid, these necklaces have something in them, a power force, most of us dont know where it came from, but we should be grateful for." Kofi replied to Zorina, he was here for a while now, he was one of Abigail's scouts. "And that's where you fail at sand dune," Nikandros said as he walked towards the group, "Some of the fighters have specialties, I for one was not gifted the necklace, but the spear given to me houses my power," "Much like my sword," Wright said as he also cam close to them.

"You...... have the powers embedded to your weapons?" Anatole asked as he stood up, "That is true young one. We and my soldiers are the oldest living elemental warriors and that's how it was given to us before, given through unique weapons." Zorina chuckles, "You couldn't be that old. Right?" Nikandros, who was hiding his face with his helmet removed it, showing his face after a very long time, "See? your friend looks like he's only in his 30's Mr. Wright." Nikandros was surprised with the answer, "You think I'm only 30, young one?" He asked curiously, and as he was about to speak, Daniel bursted out laughing, "That guy? You think he's thirty?" He continued to laugh, Zorina only nodded and Anatole asked "Then how old are you?" "Six Hundred" Nikandros blankly said as he stared at Daniel, "I'm not the only oldest one here Daniel, your Six Hundred Forty-Two for crying out loud!" Zorina and Anatole were shocked when they heard how old they were, even Kofi was taken aback when he heard how old they were. 
"You guys are joking right?" Kofi said in disbelief, but the two of them only shook their heads and their conversation was interrupted when Abigail came closer. She cleared her throat, "We still have a job to do people, now let's get to it."

All of the soldiers gathered close, there was only around Eighty-Seven of them, including the lightning warriors and the immortals, "Alright brothers, listen closely." Kofi said as he was in the middle, he had a map layout of the castle, something he was able to steal during his scouting, "They would be expecting us to perform the siege in the bridge, what they do not know is that there was a hidden tunnel that Lady Abigail has made beforehand, now we will use that to get in." He explained further, telling the layout of the path where they can take so that they attract the least attention, and as he finished talking one of the rebels raised his hand, the man walked forward, "It is a good plan sire, but there is a flaw; we all go in, then we will have no chance for backup once we push through," "And that's where you go wrong soldier," Abigail said as she walked over, "Me and the lightning warriors will be the backup, so..... I want all of you to fight with all you have and we will aid you when the time is right." all of the soldiers nodded and they set off for their destination.

The underworld was not what it used to be after Lady Abigail fled the realm after her defeat against Sorrichiro. Once a place of fire and molten stone as the lava pits spewed out the hot lava, it now lay half-consumed by ice and snow, its heart conquered by the cold-hearted Ice Knight. The few survivors of the rebellion had gathered, forming a tenuous alliance under the most unlikely of leaders. And now, eighty-eight rebels were set to storm the frozen bastion, to reclaim the inferno beneath the frost.
