War

Chapter 1: War

Haize's POV:

I stare at my reflection in the mirror.

My long brown hair cascades down my back. My brown eyes with specs of blue, stare right back at me.

I look just like my mother.

Eve, was her name.

She was killed when I was only 4 by men who attacked our kingdom.

They burned it down, while we fled.

She was stuck in castle when it was being burned.

I miss her so much, but theres nothing to do for her now.

A knock on the door interupts me from my thoughts.

"Princess, your father wants to speak with you." Noel, one of my dads warriors, says.

"Noel I've told you thousands of times, stop calling me princess. My name is Haize." I say grinning at him.

He shakes his head.

"Kings orders." He says with a straight face.

"I think after all we've been through, you would call me Haize." I say kissing his cheek.

His eyes bulge and he looks around, making sure no one saw it.

"Haize your father would kill me if he saw that!" He says in a hushed tone.

I shake my head.

"My father wouldnt do that." I say rolling my eyes.

Noel and I have been best friends since birth. As we got older, we kinda fell in love.

But, of course my father ended it when he found out.

He says it improper to love someone out of your element.

I controlled water, as Noel controlled earth.

He escorts me to the castle, away from my little cabin home.

We walk through the large double doored castle.

I followed him down the hallway to my fathers chamber, as he likes to call it.

Noel knocks on the door, and we hear a muffled come in.

"Hey daddy." I say kissing his cheek.

"Hello dear." He says as he gestures me to follow him.I do as so.

"What is this about?" I question curiously.

He gestures for me to sit as his does so in his large chair.

"There have been sightings of men around the edge of whitecross. We think they are planning something big." He says as his face turns to worry.

"I want you to stay away from the border that crosses between our land and there's." He says seriously.

"Yes sir." I say crossing my fingers. My best friend Vivian lives right near there. Im not keeping away.

He says I can leave as he has some work to focus on.

I walk out his chamber as Noel escorts me outside.

"Men were seen around here?" I ask him.

He nods. "Seriously Haize, keep away from the borderline. Its not safe." He says with a serious tone.

"Well what about Vivian? And, the fire clan. What about their safety?" I ask.

His face softens. "Your father is working on it. Now I have some business to attend to." He says heading back into the castle.

I walk down the path and start heading back towards my cabin.

Then Vivian popped back in my mind.

I turn and walk through the Whitecross villiage. Which was us water elementals.

Then there's Earth, which their little villiage is called Fathem. Then Air, and there's is called Ayerea.

Walking through the villiages, I was greeted by many 'Hello princess' and 'Good morning Princess'.

It gets old being called that. But, I smile and bid them a good day.

I arrive at Farewall, which is the fire villiage.

I knew Vivian would be near the cliffs.

I walked through the villiage and cross through the woods where I arrive at the cliffs.

Which is right near the borderline.
