Finding the one for me
Not so long ago there was a village located near a forest in Limpopo the forest name was Goblin Forest before the peace treaty goblins and humans were in war for a long time
Until something uncommon happened the death of a precious girl called Lucy
At the Village located in Limpopo
While Lucy and Sarah were walking
Many boys were talking about Lucy
Hi Lucy ,we love you Lucy said the boys but one boy didn't bother his name was Leo as he came across Lucy and Sarah he greeted Sarah mostly and ignored Lucy
"Uh eish, hello Sarah do you know where can I find Prince?",Leo asked
"You can find him at the field"
"Cool"
Leo went his way and a random boy just passed as he saw Lucy he fainted from having a major effect on her
"Argh what's with Leo? all these boys love me just like this random dude, who does he think he is?!"
Lucy was jealous he greets Sarah the most
"Girl this is South Africa not America or so, leave Leo alone, he will come around"
"Yah whatever"
Soon it was noon Lucy and Sarah went to sit by the lake
Soon Sarah asked Lucy how does it feel to be popular
"Argh truly speaking I like it but I truly hate it too, all this boys are not for me"
"I wish I could be like you"
"Oh you don't want too"
"Why do you mean by that?"
"These boys are simps beside Mr blonde hair, these boys are annoying "
"I see you, so want to become a ghost?"
"Honestly yes!"
"Oh anyways what is your dream boy or dream man?"
"Uh-Sarah why you are asking?"
"Just asking",(Sarah smiled)
"Oh ok, let's see he should be my height or a bit taller, coloured, blond hair,blue eyes,likes the colour blue"
Lucy was lost in love land, describing her dream man without knowing
"Wait is Leo your dream guy?"
"No!", (Lucy blushed)
"Stop lying you just described him, haha! do you love him?",(she burst into laughter)
"Yeah but do not tell him I'm warning you Sarah!"
"I won't I promise"
"Thanks"
They stood up and went to only find out, Leo was just standing right behind them
"Hello Sarah"
"Uh Leo! how long were you were standing? there", asked Sarah
"Hmm I was just passing by so I decided to greet you"
Lucy looked down, and Sarah noticed
"Leo I got something to tell you"
Sarah looked right into his eyes
"Please don't Sarah pleaase!",(she was screaming in her mind with embarrassment)
"You can't only greet me!"
"Uh what do you mean?",( Leo starring her with confusion)
"You should also greet Lucy too, why don't you greet her?!"
"Uh?",(Rubs his chin)
"Don't uh me!"
"Fine! Do you want to know the truth?"
"I want what's Mr blonde going to utter?"(Lucy's mind was hovering with thoughts)
"The reason I don't-I don't eish the reason I don't greet Lucy it's because-",
There was a silent pause for a moment or so
"She reminds me of my older sister Zanele!",(Tears almost fell, right off his face but held them back by closing his eyes shut)
"Whaaaat?!"
Lucy and Sarah were filled with queries in their minds their were so astonished on Leo's answer
"Why do you say that?", Sarah asked
"It's because-, you know what I got to go catch you guys later",
"Leo you can't leave us hanging eh!" Sarah was astonished
Leo was walking away
"If you keep walking don't talk to me ever" She turned out to be mad
Leo stopped and looked at her
"Fine by me then",
Lucy felt a strange feeling as if a Dirk stroke her and pierced her heart
"Lucy what's wrong?"
" Nothing!",(she walked slowly away from Sarah)
"Is she walking away out on me too?
Guess they will make a great couple after all"
Sarah laughed on her own
Next day in the morning
Leo was walking and was about to pass the lake until he saw Lucy and decided to walk towards her
"Uh, hey Lucy"
"You decided to greet me?",
"Yeah probably"
"Don't be mad don't be mad" ,(She said it to herself in her mind), "what brings you here Leo?"
"Uh, good question I guess, I was just passing by until I saw you so I came to say hi despite the times of not greeting you"
"This is surprising you greeting me?"
"You got a lot of qualities similar to my sister there's a lot that just happened losing my parents and my sister it's too much to deal with you feel me",
Leo was lost in his thoughts talking to Lucy
"Uh I'm sorry to hear that I didn't know"
Lucy gazed at him with sympathy
"Why am I telling you this Lucy?"
"Maybe I care I guess"
"Catch you later Lucy"
Leo walks away
"Bye"
She felt something in her heart again
"Is he the one for me?, But I should probably stop assuming"
Late Nights With Him
Time passed later Leo and Lucy were meeting at night
Prince and Sarah were curious if they were dating
So they followed them one night
"Lucy it's kinda weird isn't it?"
"Hmm what are you implying Leo!"
"Uh, us meeting at night same spot"
"Yah honestly what if they find out?"
"Find out what, thinking we dating? hmph!"
"Yeah,(wish we were)",(she thought silently)
Meanwhile Prince and Sarah were hiding behind the bushes
"Hmm are you see what I'm seeing Sarah?"
"Uh huh they're in love?"
"Yeah but I don't think Leo will fall in love after what happened between you two"
"What do you mean?"
"Don't act dumb you hurt my big boy!"
"Argh I ain't a boy!",(She rolled her eyes)
Meanwhile
While Leo was with Lucy, he stared at the bushes
"Come out now!"
"Who are you talking to Leo, there's no one"
"Shii! we busted Sarah!",(he whispered)
"Nah he won't do nothing"
"This girl doesn't know Leo was heartless time to time in the previous life",(Paul was strucked with fear but hid it)
"I'm counting to three"
"One!"
"What is he going to do Prince?"
"Two!"
"We gotta get out now Sarah!"
"Don't worry, we will be fine"
"Three!'
(Prince knocks out Sarah by karate chopping her on the head,then makes his move)
"Chill Leo bruh",(he steps out of the bush with his hands up)
"Were you stalking us?", Lucy asked
"Yes, maybe, no ,I don't know"
"It doesn't matter how you been Prince?"
"Wait Leo, you gone soft?'
"Uh no! I just prefer you over others"
"What about me then?", (Looks at Leo)
"Hmm, a friend"
"What!"
"Lucy you should be grateful that he said friend he doesn't refer everyone as his friend"(Puts his hands in his pockets)
"Well I guess that's fair enough anyways bye",(She walked away)
"Prince what do you mean I gone soft?"
"I don't know"
"Mxm I'm outta here see ya around"
"Cool catcha later"
(Leo went away Prince went to check Sarah)
Sarah woke up few minutes later
"Uh what happened?",she rubs her head due to her dizziness
"I knocked you out"
"Why?!",(filled with rage)
"You really don't know Leo huh?"
"What do you mean as if you act like you know him better",(she raised an eyebrow)
"I actually do and way better, you do realised Leo would've killed you, "
"Wouldn't he have killed you too?"
"I could have stood my ground"
"As if",(rolls her eyes)
"Hmph you will see him one day"
"I'll be waiting for it"
(They both went separate ways)
It was night Leo found Lucy standing by the lake
"Hey",(he walks towards her and stands besides her)
"Hii",(Faces in Leo's direction)
"Whatchu up to?"
"Nothing much just staring at the stars"
"I see,I see, uh Lucy?"
"Yes?"
"I want to say I love you"
"Ohhh go tell my mom that"
Both of the laughed intensely
"Anyways see ya around",(Leo went his way)
Damn This nigga ain't going to stay single she was the most wanted girl but not anymore (talking in his own mind)
During the day
Leo was passing by and saw Sarah
"Sarah!",(Leo called)
She came walking towards Leo
"Hey Leo how are you?"
"I'm good how about ya?"
"I'm fine why are you calling me all of a sudden?"
"Uh, I just wanted someone to talk to and I haven't seen Prince nor Paul yet so yeah"
"I see, Do you want to go chill by the swings over there"
"Yeah let's go I hope I don't swing away hahaha",(Tries to laugh)
"You such a weirdo Leo"
Both went to the swings and sat
"Leo?",(She called his name she felt nervous)
"Yeah?"
"I would like to apologies?"
"For?",( Leo was curious asking himself what's was Sarah planning to say)
"You know what, nevermind"
"Damn don't start something and say nevermind!",(he stared at her with anger)
"I'm sorry",(Sarah felt guilty of making Leo mad)
"Yeah whatever anyways see ya later",(he stood up and walked away)
"I should've just stayed quiet",(hits herself on her forehead)
The Announcement of the tournament
While people were suspecting Leo and Lucy are dating cause they've seen them together each nights that passed
A kid was ringing a bell while walking saying meeting about a tournament at the center of the village
While Paul was walking he saw Leo and ran to catch-up with him

"Oh brother haven't seen you in a while"
"Yeah so are you and ?? Dating?",(He was quite curious)
"Nah"
"Oh, ok what do you think the meeting is about?
"A tournament last time I heard",(Quite stupid, he said in his mind)

The crowd scattered
Leo was not surprised his fighting a guy who is in his 30s
"Wait Leo wow! why are you fighting a 30year old? Like wow!",(Paul burst into laughter)
"I don't know and I don't care"
They were walking and then they saw Lucy and Sarah
"I cant believe I'm going to fight Lucy"
"Yeah I'm not surprised honestly"
"Hey ain't that Leo and Paul, Guys!(She called them)
Paul and Leo were headed to Sarah and Lucy
"Hey guys, Leo ya fighting a 30 year old man?"
"Hi Leo",Lucy Greeted
"Has anyone seen Prince?" Leo asked them
"Why you avoiding the topic?" (Paul was astonished)
Leo closes his eyes then focused his energy and located Prince
Then he opened them and left
"Wow Paul what's up with Leo?"
"I don't know Sarah, why are you asking me?"
Lucy felt like she knew something
"Anyways guys let's go train, Sarah and Lucy can y'all fight against me?"
"Cool", (Sarah said while smiling)
They left and went to an open space
Lucy And Sarah Spar Against Paul
"Ok ready when you are ladies",(does his stance)
"Lucy can you go first I want to do an ancient technique my family once did"
"Oh- ok, right Paul get ready!" (surrounds herself with flames)
Dashes to Paul and lands a fist but Paul grabs her fist and throws her down with his back making Lucy fall on her back
"That was quick but not quick enough",(smirks)
Lucy jumps up and swings her right leg to trip Paul but Paul dodge the attack by jumping
But Lucy quick twisted her body and used her left leg and kicked Paul by the kidney making Paul lay down one side
"First reason I missed the first attack I wasn't at full power and I didn't increase my speed nor my heat why aren't you asking yourself why didn't you get burnt while holding me just because you are a boy don't get cocky!"(She scolded at him)
Paul then stood up and dusted himself
"You quite interesting but let's go all out I don't know what is Sarah planning but I won't let her succeed!"
"Then I won't let you get to her"
"We shall see about that woman",(he gave a dark cruel smile)
He charged to Sarah and passed Lucy,Lucy quickly increased her speed with her flames she quickly showed up infront of Paul and blocking Paul's way
"Fireball cannon!"
She shot fireballs at Paul,Paul blocked them but was taking damage
"Damn! I should stop underestimating her"
The last big fireball came Paul used air field to block it
"Air field!, your quite strong but that doesn't mean I'm holding back"
Paul dashes to Lucy than uses his aura to cover his fists to add more damage and punches Lucy in the face then Lucy blocked the punches that Paul was throwing on her face,Paul then landed multiple punches on Lucy's stomach
"Enough!"
Lucy then bursts in flame pushing Paul back
"You will pay for that!",(said with a voice of thunder)
She increases her speed and heat then dashes to Paul and landed multiple punches randomly then hits the final blow on Paul's face pushing him further
"Lucy is at her limit my turn,Lucy move!"
Sarah Uses Her Family's Ancient Technique
As Lucy moved Sarah came in high speed instead of going straight to Paul She went around and around causing Paul to be in a circle but what circle was it
"Ring of death clones of doom!"
Clones came out of the ring punching Paul all over his body due to his fight against Lucy he couldn't fight back but tried escaping the ring of death he almost succeeded but he couldn't
"Ahhh! I got to try to escape here or I'm doom indeed, Air Field tonardo rotation,(a rotational sphere showed up and covered him), this will protect me I hope so(,pant pant, Putting his right hand on his left shoulder),wait! what how did Sarah's clone enter?"
Punching Paul on his stomach but Paul quickly blocked it with his right hand but the force of Sarah's clone was to strong for worn out Paul making him take damage the air field disappeared
"Guess I lose, hehe"
He fell down, Lucy was sitting and the Ring of death clones of doom disappeared
"Wow Sarah that's just an awesome technique!"(Lucy eyes glittered with sparkles)
"Thanks I didn't know I could pulled it off"
"Damn! I gotta learn this technique please teach me Sarah",Leo said
They both look at Leo and Prince standing afar from them
"How long you guys been standing there?"
Sarah asked surprisingly
Sarah Succeeded Using Her Family's Ancient Technique
"Uh- the moment you used your family technique"
"I see so Leo you want me to teach you this technique?"
"Yes last time I checked"
"Okay I'll teach you before next week you got to master the basics, I assume you want to use it in the tournament?"
"Yes you just read my mind woman!"
"Okay but first I'll need you to teach Lucy something"
"What's that?
"To use her flames properly"
"Hmm why don't we try tomorrow?"
"Hear that Lucy guess we can multi train together!"
"Prince why don't we spar tomorrow so I could test your strength?
"Cool but I won't go all out, I don't want you to study how I fight"
"Agreed you don't need to go all out"
"Guess see you guys same spot tomorrow"
They all departed
The Tournament Is Near
It was in the morning about 11:00 o'clock as they all met at the same spot
"So have you guys eaten?",Sarah asked
"Yes",(All of them replied)
"The tournament is near, Lucy as you should know I haven't mastered my fire abilities as I was born as a low class ice and fire user"
"Wait what?"
They were all astonished by Leo statement
"But damn brother you make it look easy to use fire",Paul said with inexpressible feelings
"Yeah I guess my father taught me well anyways let's get started"
"Ok lets go a bit further from them Paul"
Then they headed further away from Lucy,Leo and Sarah
"Lucy come at me with all you got!"
He did his stance, ready for Lucy's attack
"O-k",Lucy was nervous
She focused all her fire into her right leg then she dashes at Leo then quickly focusing all her fire into.her right hand and tries to punch Leo but Leo moved and punched Lucy on her stomach and she fell down
"Ah!",Lucy screamed
"I see ya problem with you with fire,fire isn't it about speed it's mostly about penetrating the wall so let's try again but this time walk towards me"
Leo looked down on her
"Ok!"
Then she stood up and looked towards Leo
"Oh before I forget focus all ya fire into ya hands then step your leg left or right then land a punch I will just block"
"Ok!"
She walked towards and focuses all her fire into her hands then she steps with her left leg forward then she throws her right hand with a fist then Leo blocks with both hands
"Good but push with force ya fist have to reach my body!"
"Ok let's do this!"
She manage to break Leo's defense and landed a blow on his chest
"Good now this is what I was looking for and my shirt is burnt"
"Sorry"

"Wow drama boys anyways are y'all ready for tomorrow"
"Heck yeah Sarah can't wait to use that technique on that 30 year old guy even if I will lose!"
"I bet you won't land a blow",Paul said with a low tone voice
Paul became jealous Leo is fighting the Head Chief for some reason
"Ok it wouldn't matter"
With a dark ton voice Leo replied to Paul
"Damn Paul! by Leo's ton his planning to kill you(he said in his mind)Leo come with me
Prince and Leo stood up and left and when somewhere else,Prince talked Leo out

"Leo forgive the guy"
Leo eyes turned dark blue
"I swear I'm gonna kill him",Leo added with a calm dark tone voice
Leo's Lumina was flowing quickly in his body and his aura bursted out
"Leo remember what uncle Victor said!"
Prince said trying to calm him down
"Fine!"
He went back normal
"But don't worry I will woop Paul's butt for you"
He threw a joke to calm Leo down
"Haha thanks"

"Everyone was going all out now I want to try something new"(Prince charges up his aura ,lighting starts showing around him)
"Well if you think I'm going to wait on you hell no!, hope you saved food for desert"(As he said with apathy,Paul raised his right hand in the air and created a small air disc around his palm as he threw it toward Paul)
While Prince was charging the small air disc came towards him, leaving himself vulnerable, Prince burst into power cancelling out the small air disc
"Woah! So much power"he was astonished
Prince hair was blue like the sky his eyes charming blue as an ocean with electric sparks around his body sounding like electricity that a person should run from
"This is what you meant hey Prince",Paul saying with a smile
"No I'm not done this is just my first form attack me at your own risk",( Prince said coldly)
"Well I won't let you out do me",(Paul charge up it aura that air was being blown in each direction)
***
"Damn!Paul energy is rising"(Sarah screamed as she was holding both her hands on her mouth)
"They going all out"(Lucy stood up with the look of surprise on her face)
"This is the beginning Prince has already won"(Leo said with a smirk of excitement on his face)
Each person among the crowd were looking at each other with excitement and confusion
***
"Now Ladies and Gentlemen this is getting overcooked"(Slide Brown said with a look of approval on his face)
Paul burst into power his eyes were completely white
"Now this is what I'm talking about"
Paul dashed straight to Prince with amendment speed,Prince saw Paul as Paul tried landing a fist Prince dodged moving out of the way
"I don't plan fight in this form"(Prince said plainly)
Prince released aura that came out smoothly like water flowing he focused his energy inside,where his hair turn back into blond and the electric sparks formed six orbs leaving his eyes blue like the ocean once again power burst out of him again
"What just happened"Paul asked in confusion
"I focused 90% my form's
power into my base form leaving me into 10% of my form so basically I'm in-between if I make it simple like 1,1 is between 1 and 2 but 1,1 is closer to 1 but further from 2 so I'm close in my base form but further from my first form get it",Prince asking Paul as he explained
***
"Woah!" Both Lucy and Sarah were surprised
"Now we talking" Leo smirked
***
"Now it's time for the real battle"Prince Said with a plain smile on his face
Paul was totally astonished on Prince's transformation but that didn't make him lost faith
"I'm ending this fight once and for all"
Prince added with a dark brutal voice that sent shivers down Paul's spine,Prince raised his hand, and a burst of electricity crackled through the air, ionising the molecules around him. A small storm cloud formed above his palm, its edges churning with energy.
Paul sneered, summoning a gust of wind to dispel the cloud. But Prince was ready. With a swift gesture, he released a lightning bolt that arced through the air, striking the ground mere feet away from Paul.
The force of the lightning sent Paul flying backward, his wind shield faltering. As he struggled to regain his footing, Prince seized the opportunity.
"Thunderclap!"
Slamming his fists together. The storm cloud above him erupted in a deafening crash of thunder, sending a shockwave that knocked Paul off balance.
Paul retaliated with a whirlwind, but Prince was prepared. He leapt into the air, using his agility to avoid the swirling winds. As he landed, he unleashed a flurry of lightning-fast punches, each strike crackling with electricity.
Paul stumbled back, his wind powers faltering against Prince's relentless assault. The lightning user pressed his advantage, his eyes flashing with energy.
"Time to end this,"
Declared, raising his hands to the stormy sky.
Prince summoned a bolt of lightning from the cloud above, but Paul was ready. With a swift gesture, he conjured a powerful gust of wind, dispersing the lightning bolt into harmless sparks.
Undeterred, Prince created multiple lightning orbs that hovered around him. He then used his powers to accelerate the orbs, sending them hurtling towards Paul like electrical projectiles.
Paul countered with a vortex of swirling air, deflecting the lightning orbs and sending them off course. However, Prince had anticipated this. With a swift motion, he redirected the orbs, using their momentum to create a series of electrical explosions that rocked the ground beneath Paul's feet.
Stumbling, Paul struggled to maintain his balance. Prince seized the opening, dashing towards his opponent with lightning enhanced speed. As he closed in, he unleashed a devastating combination of lightning infused punches and kicks.
Paul attempted to defend himself, but Prince's attacks were too fast, too powerful. The wind user stumbled back, his eyes widening as Prince delivered a crushing blow, imbued with the force of a thunderclap.
The impact sent Paul crashing to the ground, his wind powers faltering. Prince stood over him, his chest heaving with exertion, his eyes blazing with electrical energy.
"It's over,"
Prince created an orb shooting it above him and created a small cloud above his palm once again he looked at Paul in a charming smile
"My brother this will be quick and painless, Thunderclap"
As thunder struck Paul knocking him out of conscious
The Last Battle
The fight between Prince and Paul was over
The other fights were going on and the crowd never stopped cheering on and on
Now the time for Leo to fight had come
Tension was in the air you could even smell it, silence wafted through the arena
"This is it Leo I wish you all the best",Sarah said nervously
"Yeah all the-"
Without any second thoughts Leo cutting Lucy off Leo just jumped into the ring before his friend wished him the best,followed by The 30 year old Head Chief Michael joined him in the ring
"Yow brown"

"But Chief the rules have to apply, it won't be fair for you rules are rules"
"Some rules have to be broken then, Leo fight to kill",The Head Chief said with a smirk on his face
"Why should I bother",(slaps himself on the face)
"Now we talking",Looks at him with a cruel smile
***
"Bet Leo won't land a blow",Paul said with boredom
"Damn! you love underestimating Leo, huh Paul! if it wasn't for me Leo could have just killed that ugly trap of yours"
Prince looked at Paul with a killer stare that Paul felt shivers down his spine
"So that's what you were talking about that day Sheesh drama boys"(Sarah folded her arms)
"Guys no fighting",Lucy added
"For those who underestimated Leo watch closely even if we know including him that he will lose the fight"

"Ok you may beg-"
Leo quickly created a mist of snow around the arena blinding everyone,he quickly dashed to the Chief with extreme speed
Aiming to pierce his heart off,The Chief saw Leo coming, as his known for his sharp sight he quickly turned to the left and jumped three steps back
"Saw the coming"Leo said to himself
he covers himself with flames and releases it like an exploding bomb
"Aura bomb!"
A large explosion was created,the Chief quickly created an earth wall protecting him from the flames,The Chief then made the wall go down
"Your flames are quite interesting I want you to remember this, the moment you master your Lumina then you know how to use Zhilak your fire abilities alongside your ice abilities might be known as the strongest among the nation's and now it's my time"
The Chief lifted large boulders using his Zhilak and launched them at Leo,Leo dodge them one by one he ended up being a little exhausted from dodging the boulders, He earth bends the rocks and covers Leo feet, Leo couldn't move his legs
"Damn!"
Leo was trapped he couldn't move his lower body no matter how he tried
"I declare this fight over"
The Chief lifted one heavy boulder and dropped it on top of Leo
"Not so fast,Ice barrier"
A barrier covered Leo, and protected him from the boulder, but it did not hold the boulder for long the barrier was slowly cracking
"Tch no more holding back I can't use my ice and fire simultaneously let's go fire all the way"
he charged up with flames his fire was so hot that it melted the ice right away and alongside destroyed the boulder
"Potential I see"Said the Chief with a smile
"Yeah",Leo said in response
His hair was glowing red alongside his eyes
Redlines were shown all over his body
"What do we call this Form I can see this is just the first stage and you cannot last long in it"
"How do you know?"Leo asked with confusion
"Zhilak"
"I heard you say that before"
"I'll explain when this fight is over, now come at me boy!",(He scolded as loud as thunder)
"Fireball cannon"
Leo shot fireballs at the Chief but he dodged them with ease,he quickly dashed at Leo and punched him by his stomach pushing him at the edge of the ring, Leo tried to regain his balance after regaining it he used a technique Sarah taught him
"Alright it's time,Ring of death clones of doom"
Leo dashed at the Chief in a circle, clones appeared an attacked the Chief, the Chief fighting each one of them with ease, just right on top of the Chief, one of Leo's clones launched a large fireball at the chief

The Goblin know as Seën entered the Chief's office and quickly used a paralysis technique to paralyze the Head Chief, Michael couldn't move as if he were frozen in an iceberg and glued to his chair
"Do you think your technique will work on me,Let me show you the true power of Zhilak!",he said in his mind
The ground started rumbling and boulders were ripped apart from the ground
"Die you bastard!"
Michael used telekinesis to manipulate the boulder and launched at Seën, Seën didn't have time to dodge since their were inside the Chief's office, his only choice was to take them head on, he quickly raised his hands above his face and blocked the boulders, the paralysis technique faded on the Head Chief,And he stood up from his chair
