The universe is filled with something called Anima. There is a race that can harness its powers without dying. They were called Fume'hï, the Gods of Life. They were the Warriors that guarded over Avalon the planet of Life. Nine Kingdoms in the shape of a compass protected the Gates of Anima. Then the shadows were born. Their darkness took the shape of demons, some banded together and turned good serving under the Nine Kingdoms, most attacked the kingdoms and spread their darkness to others infecting the weak minded. When the Kingdoms fell they sent their children to Earth with the hopes that one day their kingdoms could be whole again. The Kingdom fell to the hands of the King Deorc. Nine children are the only things stopping the Darkness from taking over, but when darkness has the power to do anything is it even possible for these children to survive long enough to get the training they need to fight back?

"I don't know why you put up with it!" He barked furiously, starting to pace. Elle shrugged meekly. "They're my family"- "Bullshit!" He snapped coming to a halt. "Family doesn't treat family the way they treat you. You're their personal and unpaid maid! They treat you like Cinderella! " "And do you want me to do about it?!" Elle snapped back, her frustration rising. "Sneak away in a magical carriage like she did so I can find my Prince Charming who'll rescue me? My life isn't some sort of different kind of Cinderella story!" "You're right. You're not Cinderella. You wanna know why?" She rolled her eyes. "Enlighten me." He glared meaningfully at her. "Cinderella was brave..." Elle glared right back. "Brave? Brave! How the hell was a girl who was an 'unpaid maid' brave?! All she did wait till her Prince came to rescue her!" "That's where you're wrong," he said stepping closer. "She may have waited but she only waited for so long. She went out and got a taste of the life she wanted despite her family's orders. She came down and met the Prince even when she was locked away. She took a chance...a chance I can see you're too afraid to." "I am not afraid to take a chance," Elle practically growled. "Prove it." She crossed her arms defiantly. "How?" He took a step closer, the step that brought them chest-to-chest, and placed his hands on her shoulders. His boyish smirk had disappeared and was replaced by complete seriousness. "Runaway with me..." he whispered. Elle gasped. She didn't know what to say..... † † † You know how the Cinderella Story goes.... You know how the Romeo and Juliette Story goes.... But you haven't read the stories where they're joined together...
