I watched the entire forest burn down. I will kill her. She will pay for this. I looked over at Queenie, who's face was stained with tears. I walked over to her and wiped them off. "We'll get through this." I said, in a soft tone. She gave me slight...
'King' Wentworth is horrible. He plunged our city into darkness. The city was ok before him. Everyone had a home, and food. Now there are tramps everywhere. He is a selfish man. He started making everyone pay taxes. They couldn't afford it. He didn't care.
Queenie and I snuck out. We walked into Elmwood Forest. The fairies greeted us at the edge. I knew what they were saying, and they helped me teach Queenie to understand them. In two days, it is Queenie's birthday. My mother wanted to give her, her present early. Mother was leaving town tomorrow. My home was a small cottage in Elmwood.
It was where I met Queenie. Her and her mother were walking and found us. We weren't suffering or poor. They had seen my mother and I in town before. I sometimes watched Queenie look down from her room at me. I one day wanted to see her. When my father agreed to train me to be a guard, I knew I had a chance. The queen said if my training continued then I would be Queenie's guard. It stayed on for two years, and I was finally her guard. We would talk while I stood post, and we became friends. I remember the day she found out about me. About what I could do. I was at my post when I got really bored. Forgetting that Queenie's door was open, I froze the handle. I heard her gasp. I turned to see her looking at me. I instantly Dropped my dagger and ran down the hall. She ran after me, calling my name and telling me to stop. I lost her in the garden. Eventually I heard a scream. I knew it was her scream. I ran through the garden looking for her. When I found her I saw two men talking. One of them had a knife to her throat. I knew what to do. I threw a pebble at his back. I instantly froze him and the other guy. My father came out along with the queen looking for us. Queenie ran up and hugged me. It surprised me. I thought she was afraid of me. She told her mother the whole story and was proud of it. The queen looked at me and smiled. We became very good friends. Like the ones we are now.
I lead Queenie into my house. She loved this little cottage. Her castle was so big, and this was so small. "Nice..." she said. I smiled. I knocked on my mother's door. "Mum I brought her." I said. "Alright be there in a minute!" she said. "So, I think this may be a weird question but..... Where did you learn Ice Fairy magic?" Queenie asked. This didn't come to a surprise to me. I knew she was going to ask one day. "I was born with it." I said, "My mother, is a fairy. An elemental fairy." I put a proud smile on my face. "Nice!" I noticed her glance at a painting of my family. "Hey who's that girl?" she said pointing at someone on the painting. I hesitated to answer. "No one..." I said. "No one? She has to be someone. I mean, she is in the painting." Queenie said. My mothers door opened and she walked out.
My mother has gray eyes, and dark brown hair. She always wears a purple dress with lace at the top, and some leather shoes. She kept a dagger at her side just in case.
She walked out with a dress in her hand. It had mutiple colors of green on it. The back had a cape on it with a gem. It had a thing to hang on her ears that father made, with his awesome skills in iron work. It came with a bracelet with two feathers on it and a gold chain. There was another bracelet like it, that I made, but the chain went up her arm onto another gem, and it had no feathers.

Queenie stared in awe at the dress. A huge smile spread across my face. "Beautiful dress, but what is it for?" she asked. I looked at my mother and nodded. "Since I will be leaving tomorrow, I will miss your birthday so..." she said, "Happy early Birthday!" Queenie's mouth dropped. "This is for me?"she said. I nodded. She smiled and hugged my mother and I. "I'm going to try it on!".
Meanwhile at the city...
???
"Heh..." the man beside me laughed. He grabbed my arm. "Wanna come *hic* with me *hic* pretty lady?" he said. I was on edge this week. It was the princess's birthday week, and her guard is planning something. I smiled and put my hand on his arm. "Sir, I would advise you not to touch me." He tightened his grip and pulled me into him. "Now *hic* why would *hic* I do that?" he said. "Because..." My hand started to burn. A pure look of terror spread across his face. "Ahhhhhhh!" he yelled, alarming everyone in the pub. I took my hand from his arm. Where my hand was, there were burns. Long burns. "It's a demon!" a lady yelled. "I'm no demon. I'm just a simple Fire Fairy." I said, as I looked at the lady. Her expression changed. It wasn't terror anymore. It was a face of happiness. "Well, I am so sorry dear." she said, "Please excuse my manners". I walked over to her and dropped two gold coins on the table in front of her. "Listen to me!" I yelled, "This woman will pay for all of the drinks served today! So thank her, thank her for keeping her guard." A few claps were heard from the pub.
I walked out. I could see the castle from here. I pulled out a picture of her. 'I'm going to find you...' I thought. I knew she worked at the castle. I think she is a servant, or a cook? I don't think she would be a guard, she was weak when I last saw her, so she is still weak. A lopsided smile appeared on my face. I ran to the castle. I will ask the king if she is there.
At the castle...
"May I please see the king?" I asked the guard. I put on my 'good girl act'. "Why? What do you have with the king?". "I need to ask him something." I had to smile. "No!" he yelled at me. "Why not?" I said, as my smile faded. "You wanna kill him!" he yelled. "WHAT I DO NOT!" I yelled at him. I quickly covered my mouth. "Get lost, wench!" he yelled and push me to the ground. I got up and dusted my dress off. I lit his armour on fire. "It will melt in about thirty seconds?" I said. He gave me a puzzled look. I pointed at his back. He started smacking his back. "Let me through!" he yelled, "Let me through, I'm on fire!" he said. The gates opened and he ran through. I bolted in after him. "Oh wait stop her!!!" he said, as I ran into the royal court.
I seemed to have interrupted something. "What do you want?" I heard the king yell. "Sir..." I bowed to him," I would like to ask you something." I said as I walked up to him. "What is it?' he said, I could see him get irritated. "Do you know this girl?" I asked and handed him a piece of a painting. A smile appeared on his face. "Why do you want to know who this girl is?" he asked me. "I need to talk to her." "Well than. That's my daughter's guard. Snow Yosei." he said. A smile came to my face. "Say. Do you know where she is?" He went to go speak, but the door of the room started to open. I could see two girls walk in. They laughed until one of them saw me. She stood in front of the other girl. "Ahhhh, Snow your back!" the king said. "And you Queenie." Snow took out a sword. "Woa. Snow put that away!" the girl called Queenie said. "No. Your Majesty why is SHE here?" Snow asked. "Why she wants to see you!" A face full of hate teared at me. "Why so surprised Snow? How 'bout you come give your big sister a hug?" I said, with a grin full of glee. "Why would I hug you?" she said. "Ha! Sibling rivalry!" the king said. "Leave Flame!" she yelled at me. I lit my hand on fire. "Oh why?" I said. She froze her sword. "Run! Queenie run!" She grabbed the girl behind her and ran down the hall. "Let the games begin!" the king said. I ran up to the room they were in. "Queenie grab onto me." she said. She froze the bars on the window and shattered them. A rope was hanging there. A rope of water. She grabbed it and slid down with the girl. I went to grab it to but it disappeared. I watched them run into the forest behind the castle.
"Leave me alone Flame!"
Was the last thing I heard from that forest.
