It wasn't a secret that the Earth Kingdom had a young leader, and many had no problem with that. No one really knew what had happened to the previous King and Queen but rumours had they've died of an illness or in battle. The current leader had taken is role at the age of sixteen. What amazed me though, was the fact that the Kingdom not once seeked help or guidance from another. Earth Kingdom was bloosoming, literally, with their new ruler and no one objected.

Owen shot his hands up, at first nothing happened. But then, the floors begun to shake sending millions of cracks through the pavement. Through those gaps rose foliate stems which reached the roof top, the branches extended further with their dark green leaves. One branch in particular travelled towards me. A guard at my side twitched in alert but I raised my hand stopping him.


This tiny branch paused before at its tip appeared a fully mature pale white rose.
It then fell off right into my palms and I looked down at its beautiful fragile form. The petals were silky soft, it was a miracle to see any plants in Ice Kingdom at all, yet I held a large magnificent flower in my palms. It brought a small smile to my face; one that I could not even control. I smoothed the corners of my mouth with a trembling hand, removing any act of surprise.
There was an animalistic sound and I looked up to find Owen at my feet. He had become an albino wolf, the dark green eyes smiled at me.
He took on the human form and bowed respectively his eyes never left mine.

I noticed Ash's heated gaze but said nothing, did nothing. I placed the soft plant onto the hand-rest and held my expression blank.

"Looks like Owen might just score this very point!" King Darren said with slight tremor in his voice, and Lord of Earth starts yelling. "YES! GO MY YOUNG PLUM! GO!"
Owen looked taken back, then his face went red. Lord of Earth was a brother of the previous Queen, and he stood as the support team for his kind.

The next opponent had dark brown hair and ocean blue eyes. "My name is Nathan. I am the Prince of Water." His clean shaved face was hard not to stare at. He was reasonably good-looking too.
"I want to start by admiring how beautiful you look today, Princess." Nathan addressed to me, in response I scowled, but the daring boy smirked probably thinking he'd had me there. But he'd only struck a nerve -- one I'd kill him for if I could.

He pressed his palms together, a flow of water rose from the ground, then Nathan spread his arms open and the water divided going in strokes surrounding the ballroom.
He had a concentrated expression which lead to waterfall like currents being thrown into the sides. Avoiding any Elemental, Water Prince moved in circles and so did the clear liquid in his control. It all soon transformed into a water tsunami, not once destroying anything or anyone.

Water was one great weapon, and it looked like Nathan was confident in his ability, he was a master at it.

Seconds later the show ended and the Prince like the rest bowed before disappearing next to others.
The boy dressed in light camel attire stood in the center now.
"Hugo. I am the Prince of Wind." Then with one loud smack of his palms motioning currents begun to rise. A tornado in the room?
My brows furrowed when Hugo twisted the currents sideways, which was towards me. I wondered why he started of with the hardest spell, it was smart to begin slow then ease into the core.

Rubbing my fingers I was prepared to shield myself if everything went to hell. Hugo rose from the ground, he was seven feet above the surface making the task even more complicated. His hands trembled from the amount of energy but he didn't look as if he'd cease the power anytime soon.
There was a loud groan and the ties got loose, tornado went for me.
My palms shot up but before I could defend myself, the death ring vanished leaving everyone dazzled.
