Blue flame

uh oh.....

Closing her eyes tight Alex jumped as high and as far out as she could.
'Thank you Ms.Arkright for those long jump lessons!' She thought.
Getting back to her situation Alex relised she was falling, and fast.
'Uh oh this ain't good!!!' She forcefully pushed down with her hands and thought 'SNOW!!!' over and over again.

She opened her eyes as she landed crouched on the mountain of snow that had formed beneath her. 'That was close' she looked above her and to her misfortune there were men (she guessed) in black outfits peering over the edge and talking into transmiters and then the sound of helicopters could be heard from the distance. She slide down the side of the slope gaining speed. She hit the ground running not even stopping as she glanced behind her. They were gaining on her and she was slowing down. She didn't know how long she had been running but it had been a while. She looked back in front and she could see the entrance to the kingdom just ahead. Pushing all her strength into her legs she ran as fast as she could in through the gate and right into the middle of the town. She kept running and people jumped and screeched as she pushed her way through. She glanced back again and saw that the men were pushing their way through the crowds of people.
In front of her was a stretch of road that led right up to the castle gates. On either side was the sea beautiful and blue but now was not the time to stop and have a picnic. Just as she was about to reach the gates three men landed in front of her obviously after jumping from the helicopter that was above them.
Not knowing what else to do she screamed at the top of her lungs
"GUARDS!!!!!!!!!! THERE'S AN AT-" but was cut off by a hand over her mouth from a man behind her. She let her body to the talking and elbowed him in the ribs hard. A crunch could be heard and the hand left and the man was down on the ground. The men in front of girl came forward but with a kick, punch and a sassy spin in there somewhere they were down and out and she was running to the gates of the castle with the guards running the other way back towards where she came from. As she ran through the gates, two people could be seen on the steps of the building. One ran at her picking her up and holding her close.
"I'm so glad your safe" Tristan mumbled as he placed he down again stepping back and looking his best friend up and down.
He laughed slightly
"What's so funny ?!" Alex looked at him weirdly.
"Oh nothing just the fate that you ripped your favourite jeans"
"WHAT?!?!?!" Alex screamed looking down at the knees of her jeans.
"Alex this is not the time to be talking about clothes," said a voice that walked past and up to the gates of the castle. Her sister Aria sighed and dusted invisible dust off her ground length pastel pick dress. Alex had noticed this had become a stressed habit of hers.
"How in the name of the Lord did they find out about you? !?!?"
"If I knew I would tell you!!!!!! I don't know how they did but I only told you and Tristan!!!!! Don't blame me! I just went for a walk and this happened!!!" Alex yelled back at her sister throwing her hands up in the air in frustration.
"Hey Alex I'm sure it wasn't your fault" Tristan placed his hand on her ar to try calm here.
"This isn't good" Aria stated as she swiftly walked back into the castle leaving the two teenagers in the cold dull courtyard.

"Can we go inside I'm getting cold?" Tristan stated as he rubbed his hands over his bear arms.
"Yeah sure I need to change and get these jeans to the tailors anyway" she mumbled and walked in to the castle and up the stairs
""Alex?" Tristan questioned as they walked up the grand staircase. "Why were you put walking anyway????"
Alex turned around and didn't say anything. She walked towards her friend conduit a flame in one hand and a ball of swirling snow in the other.
"I was praticing this" she whispered as she stopped in front of him and brought her hands together mixing the flame and snow together. After a second a blue glow started shining from her hands.
"That's amazing....." Tristan said in awe as he stared at her hands. His side fridge had fallen in his eyes and Alex couldn't help but pull her hands apart and push it away from his eyes. He loved at her and arched a brow. 'Why did I do that?' Alex asked herself as she felt her face heat up
*cough cough* She spun around startled by the butler behind them.
"Princess Aria asked me to inform you that you are to change and wear the dress that she asked the maid to leave on your bed in your chambers and meet her in the thrown room before you attend your engagement with the two young men that will be courting you for your marriage," he bowed and turned to leave whole Alex and Tristan just stood there dumbfounded. "And sir Tristan is to change into the suit placed in the guest chambers."
He walked away but turned back before saying "NOW," and Alex snd Tristan quickly made their way to the hallway with the chambers.
