As soon as Winter and I arrived, we went to the gladiator arena. What we saw changed us. Thorn, Smolder, and Onyx were all hanged and disembodied. Who could have done such a thing? Tears roll off of my face and land into the sand. We need to make sure Burn is alright!
"Lets look for Burn. If something happened to me the queen, king, and step-princess, something could happen to her." I barely muster the strength to say that. I have known Thorn for well over 11 years now. I will protect her daughter to honour her.
"I would normally agree, but Burn is okay. I know this because..." Winter trails off suddenly. I whip around, my tail ready to attack.
"Looks like Qibli to me," Six-Claws says. "Qibli be cool and bow down to your new queen." A female SandWing younger than me enters the arena. She has a crown on her. I found three weaknesses already. She holds her head up not thinking anyone will attack someone like her. She has a sinister look to her eyes.
"I have been waiting for you Qibli. My mother always seemed to trust you, now I know why," the SandWing sneers. I grimace at the mention of Thorn. That must be Burn.
"You killed Thorn!" I rage out in anger and spite. I lunge at her left side. Burn swipes her tail and in an instant I am down. She cut my side with her poisonous tail. Winter blows a ice wall surrounding me and lifts us up into the air. "Winter, why did she do it?" Winter doesn't seem to hear me. I am barely staying conscious. Hour after hour passes. Winter hasn't stopped for a single break. I notice a white line coming up. The kingdom of ice. A few IceWings must have seen us coming from Possibility. Possibility is a couple thousand miles away from the Ice Kingdom, but they are fast enough to send messengers across.
"Prince Winter and...." The IceWing guard trails off when he lands his eyes on me.
"Do not worry about me. Latch one of the bracelets on to her. Oasis needs help!" Winter orders them around. They latch a cold silver bracelet on to my wrist. He called me Oasis. He remembered. Oh Winter... They help Winter carry me across. After they fly for hours we land into a dome area. Must be their diplomacy area. Queen SnowFox enters the dome.
"Winter what happened?!"
"Thorn, Smolder, and Onyx are dead. Burn killed them. War is coming," Winter responds with dignity and bows to the queen. War is coming.
