Chapter 5: Escape!!!
In a dark dungeon, with wet ground and a musty smell, Lancelot lay on the ground, gradually recovering from the multiple internal Injuries he had suffered at the hands of Lord Paige Kalliester.
Dice stood by the only window present in the dungeon, staring at 12 Air nation soldiers, seating around a bonfire, eating, chatting, and playing games to keep themselves occupied.
The heat also served as warmth for them during that cold night.
However, unknown to anyone, a small part of the flames were moving of their own accord and gathering around the body of Lancelot.
This was gradually healing him until eventually when he was completely healed.
Some sort of strong force permeated the entirety of the dungeon, and some even collided with Dice, slamming him against the wall and the floor.
The force entered Dice's body and was healing him gradually.
By the time Dice stood up, he was completely healed of any Injury, also he discovered that the seal on his powers was gone.
He raised his hands in wonder, feeling that familiar rush of power he once felt, a long time ago.
He decided to test out his theory on the soldiers who had their guards down.
Suddenly two of them started screaming in pain, this startled the remaining 10.
They quickly got up and formed a defensive formation and started to draw all the oxygen to themselves.
This was done to slow down the enemy by suffocating them to death.
Out of nowhere, a crimson red 'god fire' flame flew out and collided with the 10, turning them to ashes within seconds.
Lancelot then floated out after destroying the dungeon entrance, totally recovered and composed.
A strong wind current that was crisscrossing a whirling flame surrounded his body emitting an aura much stronger than any in the camp.
"isn't that the wind element? How....how...you..
you....you mastered the wind element?" Dice was both scared and puzzled as he spoke incoherently.
To Dice, this Kid was a monster and this further proved to him that, for Lancelot to be able to control the wind element, then he must be the one the prophecy spoke about, the savior to unite the kingdoms.
"Lord Dice congratulations, I see you've gotten your powers back," Lancelot said with a smile, then he looked around and asked;
"Where is my sister?"
Dice snapped out of his daze and quickly explained what happened to Lancelot and how his sister was taken to Lord Paige Kalliester's tent.
Lancelot frowned in anger and said;
"Let's go",
Then they prepared to storm Lord Paige's tent, moving forward with determination.
On the way, all the Air nation soldiers were easily killed as they combined Dice's blood draining technique and Lancelot's fire and wind elemental control to dispatch of them till they reached the tent belonging to Lord Paige Kalliester.
When they got to the tent, the silhouette of Lord Paige Kalliester could be seen almost unclad, except for a piece of thick cloth around his waist.
On the bed was Cherry, her clothes were completely removed, leaving her naked, all her privates were exposed and she was held down by strong restrains which temporarily sealed her powers and weakened her, making her unable to move,
she stared at Lord Paige
Kalliester helplessly as she resigned to her fate.
As Lord Paige Kalliester moved closer to her, he didn't notice the audience of two behind the tent, suddenly a fireball hit him from behind.
Before he could recover, another hit him at his side, he wailed in pain and quickly ran out of the tent and floated off into the air without bothering to find out who was on the offensive.
After he was gone, both Dice and Lancelot walked in.
Dice stood there for a few minutes observing the naked features of Cherry.
Lancelot noticed this and ignored him, he ran to her side, and emitted some kind of force that broke the seal in her powers, making her able to
wield the fire element again.
She clad herself in flames and gave Dice a frown and a displeased gaze, she then searched for her clothes and wore them.
As if on cue, they all exited the tent and set for leaving the town.
Lord Kalliester returned with an army of 100 soldiers, all preparing for a signature strike, this was meant to be a death blow, lethal to any life form. Cherry was a bit scared as she held on to the helm of Lancelot's cloth, Dice was a bit worried too.
"Lord Paige I see you're very shameless, first you fight without honor, and now you want to kill since you couldn't handle a little flame,"
Lancelot spoke With disdain at the enraged Lord Paige Kalliester, who simply sneered in return.
"You won't leave this place alive, soldiers aim, fire"
Lord Paige Kalliester roared, his soldiers got
into position and moved their air control rods simultaneously.
All th rough it all, Lancelot remained composed he created a windstorm to protect his sister and Dice.
Dice used that opportunity to target some soldiers, causing several soldiers in their formation to scream out in pain.
Lord Paige Kalliester remain unmoved as they prepared for an ultimate wind lash.
A huge whirlwind began to gather around the soldiers forming an ethereal-looking huge wind sword, which was released with a venomous force.
It tore through the very fabric of space creating ripples that within seconds appeared to shroud Lancelot completely and stopped there. "Take that" a soldier shouted in jubilation, expecting a dead Lancelot.
Lancelot's control level started to climb up in the air elemental control, level 2, level 3, then at level 3 it stopped, his eyes started going completely devoid of an iris, then a small storm could be seen building up.
He then unleashed a powerful force, which tore from him toward the soldiers.
Wind and fire knitted so tightly, that it's hard to tell them apart, it shredded every single soldier into smithereens except for lord Paige who was left unarmed.
Lord Paige looked in shock wondering how he even survived that.
"I want you to remember this day, I wont kill you for now, but a war is coming on the Air nation, I will give you this chance to prepare".
After he said that, Lancelot propelled himself in the air along with his sister and Dice and flew off with the wind propelling them like a kite.
