Ice Devil Kingdom

Hell was an interesting place, two kingdoms exists. Two purely different elements resided there. The element of fire, and the element of ice. The two kingdom have been feuding for thousands of years.

The Fire Devil Kingdom was a place of wondrous technology. Machines were a staple-mark of the kingdom, and was what they prided themselves on. Gears were everywhere you looked, on the walls, the road, even sometimes on clothes. Citizens were able to use fire to help fuel the machines, and most citizens were required to have minimum control over fire.

The Ice Devil Kingdom revolved more on the side of nature and fantasy rather than practicality. Ice magic was a common tool that the ice devils used. Spell casting was a class that every ice devil had to take when they were in school. The only class that all students looked forward to. Nature adorned the landscape of the kingdom.

They bordered each other at a place called Ignis Glacies. Ignis Glacies had a lush forest, that wasn't much of a forest. Where the south side of the Ice Devil Kingdom met the north side of the Fire Devil Kingdom, the conditions were made just right for forestry to appear. It was a truly one of a kind place.

Yet, both sides were completely and utterly different. And it didn't help that they hated each other with a burning passion. It wasn't until the upcoming generation where they would cease to hate each other.

Towards the south side of the Ice Devil Kingdom, there was a remote hidden garden. Icy vines hung down in front of the mouth to a cave. Inside the cave, sparkling jewels of pale blue sparkled, illuminating the dark area. The cave extended until there was a hole to climb out of. Then you could see the garden. Overgrown ice flowers grew, crawling along the frozen ground. They shimmered and sparkled like the stars.

This place became a meeting place for two girls after they discovered it for the first time. These two girls were on opposite sides, ice and fire. Nicole and Alexis. Yet they got along perfectly. Their friendship knew no bounds, they teased each other and they had a lot of fun together.

"Catch me if you can~" Alexis sang, running around the gardens. Her black hair blowing in every direction possible. Deep chocolate brown eyes were sparkling with mirth and glee. She wore a fluffy long sleeved red jacket over her black dress and leggings. Dangling around her neck was a red gem that was on a necklace. Her red tinted leathery wings were tucked in behind her.

Chasing her, was a laughing girl named Nicole. Nicole could almost be mistaken as a twin to Alexis, she looked extremely similar in almost every way. Well, except for the clothes and the wings. She was wearing a short sleeved light blue t-shirt, with darker stripes on them. She wore black jeans with white converse. Her wings her a pale blue as were slightly smaller than Alexis'. She also had a necklace that was similar to Alexis, except her's was pale blue.

"Get back here!" Nicole giggled a bit, reaching for the other girl. She just missed the hood of her jacket. Alexis twirled around a bit, dodging all the attempts for Nicole to grab her. Small, warm, red, flames flickered off her shoulder, as her irises turned a soft glowing red. It took a moment for Nicole to realize where the flames were appearing from. "Hey don't do that! You might destroy the flowers." Nicole said with a small frown.

Alexis slowed her running down to a stop, as she focused on extinguishing the small dancing flames. After a few seconds most of them had dissipated, but a few sparks escaped Alexis's reach. They spiraled up and out of the garden, reaching for the skies.
