Chapter 4 - Feirnon Has Fallen

"Pity, you'll be destroyed soon," Ysandria said as she watch Feirnon from the sky.

She accessed her power and made her black cape sit on her black armor filled with small spikes in every inch of her body.

Her straight midnight black hair fly against the wind and her thick mascara matches her black lips, she smiled before speaking, "time to destroy Gazaria. Once and for all."

Ysandria, the queen of Hell used her magic to create a storm strong enough to make the people of Feirnon retreat to their home. A satisfied smile painted in her darks lips, she spoke in a childish voice, "step two."

She once again used her power to turn into shadow, so that she can creep into Feirnon undetected.

Just like how she planned, she entered Feirnon's throne room as a shadow and searched where the fire stone is. Her pitch black eyes settled on the locket on Fellion's neck. "There it is," she whispered and revealed herself.

In the room there are eight guards holding a spear ready for any battle that might face them. Every guard was shocked when they saw Ysandria appear out of nowhere. "Your highness," Ysandria said and kneeled in one knee.

She stood up and a smirk painted in her lips as she chuckle, for the guards was ready to attack her in any second. "There is no need for that," she said and grinned.

"This battle wouldn't last long," she added and moved her hand sideways quickly as blades shot exactly at the guards chest. Fellion then got alarmed, engaged his power and prepared for battle, "who are you?" Fellion asked and Ysandria rolled her eyes before replying.

"You seriously don't know who I am?" Ysandria asked as if she's a good person, trying to recieve pity.

"I'm the queen of Hell," she answered in a dark voice and moved her hand, with that she revealed a sword clenched in her left hand.

"And that fire stone in your necklace, is mine," she added and prepared for battle.

"I won't let that happen," said Fellion and was about to use the power of the fire stone to teleport but he can't.

"Your mother will be very disappointed, did you think I would let you escape?" Ysandria said and laughed, "before I even entered your room I placed a spell that no one can leave the room until I leave. Looks like you'll be the first to say goodbye, son of Ferzino."

Fellion raised his hand and a sword appeared with a flame symbol on it's blade, he smirked and said, "if that's the case. Looks like we have no choice."

A devilish smile painted in Ysandria's lips as she takes her position, "you have your father's bravery, I'm impressed. We'll see if you're swift as your mom," she said and kicked from the floor so hard she reached Fellion and attacked him with the sword.

Fellion blocked the attack using his sword, their eyes settled to one another as they exchange force from their swords. Ysandria retreated and went back to her place. "Not bad, now... Let's get serious," she said and she moved fast circling Fellion.

"What now son of Ferzino?" Ysandria asked as she continued circling Fellion.

Fellion revealed another sword and prepared for Ysandria's attack. And when Ysandria attacked Fellion dodged by moving sideways and attacked Ysandria.

They exchanged sword slashes, attacked one another and dodge each other's attack. The two knew what the other's strategy so it was hard for both of them to find a perfect moment and take a shot.

When Ysandria moved her wrong foot, Fellion took it as an opportunity to attack her leg using his sword but Ysandria dodged it by making a backflip and turned into a shadow.

"Enough games son of Ferzino, you will give me that fire stone or I'll kill you," she said as Fellion tightened his hold to the sword.

"If that's the case, I'll die protecting the stone," he yelled.

He heard guards knocking at his door but they can't enter, Fellion knew nothing about the why, but he knows that Ysandria is behind it. He has no choice but to battle her one on one.

Ysandria appeared and said, "son of Ferzino, give me the fire stone," it wasn't a command. It was a spell. Ysandria has the power to control the mind of someone whose heart doesn't belong to someone, to someone who isn't inlove.

She was expecting Fellion to fall in her spell but he didn't, for Fellion is already inlove with Thalia. A chuckle escaped Ysandria's mouth and spoke, "pity, you won't get the chance to confess."

She turned back into a shadow and swiftly stabbed Fellion. His body fell on the floor and Ysandria smirked as she remove the necklace from his neck. "You were better than your parents, I'll give you that, but just like them, you will die because you blocked my way," she said and disappeared.

Oxoluz heard Farah's heavy breathing as the two eat their lunch. He knew that Farah was worried and he can no longer take it. He spoke, "I'm here to listen Lady Farah."

A fake smile painted in her lips and nodded, "thank you, Oxoluz, I highly appreciate it." Farah replied.

She was about to continue eating when both of them felt the ground moving and it became hot all of a sudden. Farah stood up and went to the terrace and saw petals of ember flowers in the air.

'Strange,' Farah spoke in her mind. Ember flowers can only be seen if a fire Phoenix dies. That woke her up... It isn't strange, something happened.

She turned back to Oxoluz and called him, "Oxoluz, follow me, we have to go to Feirnon, now."

Oxoluz stood up and Farah went away first, she accessed her power and flew in the air. Oxoluz followed her and the two went to Feirnon. The two reached Feirnon and Farah was already crying before they could even reach the ground.

"It can't be." Farah said as her feet met the land of the fallen kingdom of Feirnon.
