Little did they know that this seemingly innocent game would soon take a sinister turn. The sun began to set, casting long shadows across the forest floor, and an eerie silence settled in the air. The children selected one of their own, a timid girl named Emily, to be the seeker. With a nervous smile, she closed her eyes and began counting, her voice echoing through the trees. As the seconds ticked by, the remaining children scattered into the darkness, seeking out the perfect hiding spots. Emily finished counting and opened her eyes, ready to find her playmates. But as she ventured further into the forest, a sense of foreboding gripped her. The once familiar surroundings seemed twisted and distorted, as if the very essence of the forest had turned against her. The trees, once tall and majestic, now appeared gnarled and twisted, their branches reaching out like skeletal arms. The moon's pale light filtered through the thick canopy, casting an otherworldly glow on the forest floor. An unsettling chill ran down Emily's spine, but she pressed on, determined to find her friends. "I will be posting this story on RoyalRoad.com”

ABOUT THE STORY: "Action Bound Hearts Of Flame And Frost" takes place in a modern Earth-like world called Earthen where elemental spirits, angels, and demons exist in secret. Most people don't know these beings walk among them - but Phenics and Yuki are on the front lines of a war between our world and the Abyss. _____ THE MAIN CAST: Phenics Amaterasu (Lead Male - Tsundere Type) He's fiery, stubborn, secretly kind under all the snark, and of course, super bad at expressing his feelings (especially toward a certain icy girl). His powers stem from his Phoenix Spirit, giving him control over blazing flames, crimson wings, and combat-enhancing astral armor. He's also ¼ human, ¼ angel, and ½ Phoenix Elemental Spirit - so yeah, he's complicated. _____ Yuki Yuuki (Lead Female - Kuudere Type) Cool, composed, and deeply emotional beneath the surface. Yuki is Phenics' childhood friend and partner in battle. She doesn't say much, but when she does, it cuts straight to the soul. Her powers are from her Ice Spirit heritage - she's a Yuki Onna (Snow Woman) with ice manipulation, spirit-enhanced martial skills, and killer frost-glare energy. Also ¼ human, ¼ angel, and ½ Ice Elemental Spirit. _____ Kazuya Hayashi (Male - Loyal Best Friend Type) Phenics' other best friend and the "big brother" energy of the group. He doesn't have spirit blood, but he makes up for it with strong spiritual awareness, energy-enhanced equipment, and a grounded sense of calm. He's brave, chill, and maybe too good at keeping secrets. _____ Miko Aihara (Female - Energetic + Spirited Type) The heart of the team. Miko is Kazuya's closest companion and often drags everyone into being a bit more... human. Like Kazuya, she's fully human but spiritually gifted. Her style leans more toward agility and charm in battle, using sacred gear and talismans.

To his shock, he found himself in the body of Arin Vale, an insignificant character never mentioned in the novel—a true extra. Now, armed with the knowledge of future events and driven by a desire for chaos, Arin had one goal: to disrupt the smooth journey of Alex Whiteheart, the Protagonist.
