Guardians of the Gates: Wings

Chapter 2: Fire

                                                                  Chapter 2: Fire

       It had only a day that Ami had returned to the Academy and students were already swarming her with questions. On where had she been, what had she been doing or why had she returned. None in which she had an answer to, her mind was blank. Every single time she tried to think back there was nothing. She walked through the crowd that surrounded her, for some reason she had forgotten that she was a princess. But now, the buzzing questions and voices made her make sure she wouldn't forget. 

     "Miss Wildfire," Ami looked up to see a face she hadn't seen in ages. Eli was wearing a forest green blazer with a white shirt underneath with a green and brown striped tie. Eli was like 5'7 with long legs and a small chest that ran on an hourglass body. She had high cheek bones with a narrow small nose. Her big dark brown eyes started at Ami. Eli's eyebrow were thick and straight with no real arch to them, she had long black hair. Unlike Ami's pale skin, Eli had a sun kissed tan. 

      "Miss. Greenwood, long time no see," Ami smirked.

"Ah. Yes. You left me alone for two whole years," Eli was walking besides Ami, leaving the crowd of giants behind them. 

   "Sorry about that," Eli looked down Ami again. As if she blinked Ami would disappear.

       "You know, I was the one who found you. Well me and this other boy, he's new around here. He's a royal like you."

   "God I hate royals. They think they are such know it alls"

"Ami you're a royal too, you know" 

     "Yes, I know. I hate myself too. Anyways, the headmaster asked me if I could summon holy fire. She claimed that two students informed her that I could, was one of those students you, Eli?

      "Yeah. You did summon it, and not just a small flame, you summoned a wave of it. Ami, you came back to the Academy on your own. You were looking for someone. A guy I think, not only that but you took down a high ranked demon. Like a level 2 demon." There were 5 type of demons, level 5 ones were ones that usually could only appear at night, weak ones that fed of fear. Level 4 were tricky, they could torment humans with pain, angry and all types of emotions. Level 3 lived inside of humans, causing them bad luck, pain, depression and many more things. They were the ones most academy students faced. Level 3 demons could turn into physical thing and attack demon hunters. It was because of the angelic blood that ran through their veins, demons can't physical attack human. They could scratch them or move objects but never attack them in the way they attacked demon hunters. Level 2, well those were giants, they usually were demon that were assigned to run families, cities, schools, any giant location. For every family there was, there was a demon assigned to destroy it. Family usually brought peace, safety, love, and joy. Everything demons hated. Level 1, those were the demon princes, the ones that usually were the right hand of the devil. Going against one was suicidal unless you could summon holy fire, of the winds of purification, the vines of purification, or holy water. Not the holy water someone found in a church but holy water that had an essence of the King. They could wrap themselves around the demons and weaken them. Enough time to kill a level 1 demon, though those abilities have disappeared. Demon hunters now in days lacked in being pure. In order to summon such abilities one had to be selfless, free of selfish emotions. Full of faith and obedience to the King. So when Eli claimed that Ami could use holy fire, well it seemed outrageous that Ami could.

       "Don't you think I would have remembered?"

"You got hit by a level 2 demon. It must have wiped your memory."
