Alpha King of Fire

THE ESCAPE BATTLE I

FIRA’S POV

Two days ago?

We prepared in the evening. I put on the bag everything that we needed in a hurried way.

“Mama, where are we going?” Ember was gazing at the bag and then went to me.

I down my knee and grasped both of her cheeks. “Listen to me.”

She moved her head in an up and down direction.

“I love you.” My voice was just low.

“I love you, too, Mama.”

I swallowed my saliva and grabbed a deep inhale. “You’ll be a good girl like what Papa Janus and King Fire said, right?” She nodded again. I exhaled harshly and continued. The nervousness was on my chest. “When we out in this room. Do not create any single noise. Just follow me, okay?”

She nodded again. She was a smart kid. Once she agreed, she would do that. I kissed her forehead and then sat on the bed.

Eira and Dad went inside the room. They were next to me when the lights were off. That was the sign that we traveled outside. Dad immediately carried Ember, sitting on his arm. We were tip-toeing when we were walking outside, peeping on the guards. I saw one of the guards that were going in our direction. We hid on the wall while holding our breath. I peeked at him again. When he was near in our direction, I stretched my feet on the ground, the reason why he dropped. I suddenly kicked his back and covered his nose and mouth. I waited for him to fall asleep.

“Where did you learn that?” Eira was whispering.NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

“King Water,” I answered back.

I almost jumped when someone covered my mouth. When I looked at him, I let out a sigh of relief. “Pyro.”

“Shh.” He put his forefinger on his lips.

We all traveled the dark hallway, hiding at the wall when there was a guard, and then continued again. It was like hide and seek, but when they catch us, we are dead. Pyro held my hand while we were walking. We duck when another guard was going in our way. We held our breath. Even Ember was not talking. I guess she was aware of what was happening.

We exhaled easily when they did not see us. We ran to the other side of the hallway, moving down the stair. Then suddenly the lights were turned on. We were unable to move when there was a man with a guard uniform was in front of us. Good thing, we were facing his back.

Pyro ready himself to kick him, but when he showed his face to us. It was Seryo!

“There.” Seryo pointed in the left direction.

The lights were off again. I thought there was something happening to Zephyrus. He was in charge of the lights.

We hid and hid and then walked, scared of creating a scene over battalions of guards because the kings believed that no innocent people should die tonight. We were just going to leave the kingdom peacefully with no blood dripping on the floor.

When we arrived outside, the wolf form of Colden was in there, waiting for us. Pyro grabbed Ember to my father and placed her on Colden’s back. “Take care of Ember.”

We ran as fast as we could. We entered the woods and faced the darkness, coldness, and dangers of the place. We decided that we would change our wolf form when we reach the boundaries of the Elemental Kingdom because if we changed in this area, they would smell us.

Colden was running so quickly while Ember was holding on to his back.

“King Fire, I believed in your words.”

Our feet stuck on the dried leaves on the soil when Princess Ziraya struggled our way. She was with the rainbow sisters which I could not get why they were with her.

“You underestimate my ability.” Princess Ziraya smirked. She nodded while looking at our backs. In just a blink of an eye, her shoulders were encircling us with their swords pointing to us. I held Pyro’s hand tightly.

“Sorry, not sorry for the lives that will be going to vanish tonight!” Princess Ziraya gritted her teeth while the sharpness and madness were written on her expression.

“You’re a good royal, Princess. That’s why you get my trust. I won’t beg for you to stop, but remember our friendship instead.” Pyro stood straight in front of all of us. He was blocking her arms at us.

I was on the back of Pyro while holding Eira’s hand. Colden’s wolf form was next to me with Ember in his back. Dad was on my other side. Only I and Pryo could fight. Raiden, Zephyrus, and Hali were on the kingdom, creating a scene, acting as if there were fighting, so the other guards would not recognize that we were gone.

“I didn’t want friendship. I want power!” Princess Ziraya chuckled sarcastically. “Acting as if I’m in love will you makes me vomit. Yeah, you’re a nice-looking guy and all, but I’m too obsessed with power. If you continue the wedding and marry me, this would not happen.” She stepped on and then stopped, grasping an air. “Ungratefully, Elemental Kingdom has so many kings! Even if I killed you and King Ice now, I still have three kings and one higher king to kill.”

She was disgusting! Her greediness never came to my mind. I thought that she was just like Pyro so much, that was why she was mad at me. The fact was, we would never sense the real intention of the people around us. I should be thankful that King Fire did not marry her.

“Your decision is fighting with me, aren’t you?” King Fire said with full of braveness on his face. “I’ll give you an option.” He clenched his fist and sharpened his look. “Surrender, give us the way or fight and die to where you’re standing?”

She laughed so loud like a crazy woman. “I waited for the perfect timing and then you’re saying to me to surrender?” A smirked was on her lips. Every second passed the soldiers were becoming many. I had no idea if we could escape from them.

“Colden, put Eira in your back.” I heard the thoughts of Pyro even though he was not in his wolf form.

I guided Eira to ride on his back. I had no idea if he could take the weights of Ember and Eira. However, when I observed that he could, I let her on him.

“At a count of three, run.” Another thought of Pyro, talking to Colden.

“One, two卼hree!”
