" A long, long time ago, during the invasions from the North-Western direction - A peculiar group of people decided to flee and survive instead of risking their life for the freedom of the Indus civilization. The most common name for it recently is called " Chatur " or when translated - the " Clever " community. While the Indus civilization fell, only they remained with their tears and blood.

Slowly the community grew as a nation and people divided themselves amongst their people into 12 communities. While the rest of the communities gained prosperity, one remained as helpless and insecure. Slowly, the community struggles to live without fertile soil and most of the men are dying due to their battles for their independence.

Desperate for food and shelter, they searched for any job available everywhere they went, until they met people who came from ancient China. Their offer seemed genuine as they said it,

But little did they know that something even worse than death had awaited them... "

" Oh no! It's ripped! "

Ok, let's stage this in a place, in the peaceful and warm climate in China. In a house. It's found in the middle of a bamboo forest. In that house, there was a book, a lady with quite the beauty was holding one side of the book, while beside her, there sat a girl holding the other side.

There were only a few parts about this scene that were incredibly strange: the little girl had a lot of hair, sure that's normal, and it was long. Ok, that might be normal too, but what if I told you it's naturally violet? And had transparency on the tips, like it's dipped in air itself!?

" Now, now, it's OK, I'll get another book next time I'm out… "

The violet haired girl was upset and couldn't bear to see a part of the story untold.

" But how would we know about it? It'll be such a long time before you even travel to get another one, let alone reading it soon. "

Suddenly, an idea popped in her head and she quickly looked at the lady with a glow in her eyes.

" Is there a Google search that could tell us? "

The lady chuckles at the thought of it.

' No one in mankind was supposed to know about this civilization except for its descendants and anyone married to them. '

But she just kept it in her thoughts as she looked at the girl, who was anticipating with a gloomy face for an answer, in a cold and gloomy atmosphere it had suddenly become.

" We'll find out soon enough. "

Suddenly, the girl got excited again, and somehow, changed her atmosphere entirely from a creepy cold to a cozy warm temperature. And I'm saying that this literally happened within a fragment of seconds.

" Alright, let's continue! "

Then she continued on reading the strange script that seemed similar to Hindi. It was good enough to read for the lady and the little girl but it seriously doesn't look like a language that's, at the very least, common.

" All the people ever wanted is to survive with their family, but realized that they had made their worst mistake of all time by trusting these people, for they were dangerous. They took away what they had held dear for so long; their clothes, wives, children, livestock, belongings, it was horrible. Soon enough, it was already as if they became their slaves, and this is where the tragedy of lifetimes came to be.

Some were imposters from what they would see and kidnapped some of the ladies that have been held captive. As they were beautiful and were never seen as significant people, the scientists didn't care as much about what would happen to them. Children came out from it and more trouble followed.

These children here were considered as the children of someone amongst the scientists, so they could walk around and look around the lab they worked in. But the thing they desired the most was to see the people that have been tested. Sometimes, they would see someone with a big injury that seems impossible to occur, and rarely would there be soil coming out of the fingers of the tested people.

They would always be amazed and curious. But one day, that curiosity betrayed them, and they were also sent inside alongside the tested people and it would usually end in suffering and bitter feelings. Leaving them either dead on the ground or injured so much as to never get to act with sanity again.

But this all changed when 700 males and 700 females were tested with complete success, there were 1400 Land Benders. These land benders had great connections through Greeks & so they named their lab rats' area as Tanah.

They were the largest crowd the scientists had ever seen, it was almost close to Japan's population by the time they were temporarily free due to the space issues they had underground. But they didn't refuse to test more because they were sure that if they continued, they would make a new planet Earth out of it.

After decades of work, they made a base big enough in the mantle with the slavery of the Land benders. Even through the extreme heat and the rock's rigidity, the Land benders made a base big enough to hold the entire population of Earth back at the time. But then, the scientists decided to make Tanah the capital city since the land was so huge & made the territory Gī.

Safe from anyone - & everyone.

As the labs they're tested in are right above it. The interior is massive & there's no exit through the ground except through the labs, which would take both risk & the ultimate plan. "

As the lady from China read through the book, she felt someone was watching them from afar, but she ignored the feeling and just continued after seeing the girl's cute anticipating face.

" One day, in the 15th century, one of the test subjects luckily escaped, his name is now called Leon. He sneaked through hallways and floors but then he couldn't find the exit. Suddenly he reached a room where one of the creators of the experimental formulas were. Then the test subject took one of the vials created.

It didn't help, instead, it made him weak and led himself to be captured. While in a special, impenetrable cell, he would feel like the water he's given would stick to his hand like a magnet would. After 10 months of improving this sticking force, he turned it from sticking to the water into bending the water & made a second escape plan. Without knowing it, he discovered Electromagnetics. "

The little girl interrupted her by tapping onto her shoulder, clearly having something in her mind that was bothering her.

" Yes, Matilda? "

" Where was the rest of the world while this guy created Electromagnetics? Besides, how were they able to survive in the mantle? Isn't it super hot? So hot that no living thing can survive for minutes there? "

" Those are very good questions Matilda, I'll give my applause. But I don't think you know who these people are, do you? "

" No. I thought we were at the time where Bronze was just getting used to Chinese people. "

" That was when the Chatur people just left. We're talking way after that happened. Around 5 to 10 generations may have passed by this point in the story. And while people were thinking about dumb stuff like having more ladies as their wives and concubines, the scientists had made it their mission to collect every intellectual person around. Empedocles was the one that spread the word about the elements of nature, remember? "

" Ummmm… No, it's my first time knowing. "

" Well, do you think that he's actually got it from his head all on his own? "

" Yeah… I mean, philosophy was his job, wasn't he supposed to think like that? "

" Nah. He got the info from them. Then why was he so specific on only choosing 4 instead of 5 like China's including Wood or India's including Aether? '"

" Because he's Greek. And Greeks are like Americans in their time. They always simplify things. "

As the lady knew she couldn't argue any longer with the little girl…

" Well, I'm not the one making History. It's what they said. "

" Well, I'll be researching even more than them and make sure that it isn't the scientists' fault that the Earth wasn't developed enough. "

" Sure, you'll be the next big girl to be part of history. "

" It's not funny! I really mean it! "

" Alright then… onto the story…

With all his might, Leon tried his best to escape, and then, he went from hallways to corridors to find the exit. When he bumped into his last dead end, the security was already on his tail. So in all hopes being lost, he went inside a room filled with many odd coloured vials. Suddenly, before anyone could hurt him, he gathered all the liquid water around as if by adrenaline.

And when he opened his eyes, he froze everyone in the room except for a man who works there. Then the helpless man was afraid & with immediate panic, took some of any vial left that wasn't broken through the collision, through this coincidence, the 2 men became the first Fire & Ice Benders. They were Mākmā & Airesalju. "

As the little girl gasped in awe and imagined through her head, the lady took the time to look over her shoulder. Her pupil widened like a cat and streams of glowing green could be sighted on her eyes. Suddenly, her view became green, as if she activated a sniper's scope, and she could notice someone.

A figure could be seen, keeping low and holding a weapon. She quickly raised her hand and waved at the person in a friendly way, even though her face made her look like a psychopath. The girl returned to reality again, looking at the lady with some confusion.

She got off from the comfy, big chair and started staring into the direction the lady was waving at. She closed her eyes and sat down on the floor, her ears started moving like someone was flexing their shoulders. And then, in a few mindful seconds, she could hear everything, even the figure's breathing.

She smiled calmly as she then started talking as she pointed at the man sheepishly.

" Are you waving to that guy in the distance? "

" Yes, he's your examiner after I finish reading for you. How's your overall listening sense? "

" It's doing good, although the rain is coming and it's already disturbing me. "

"... Very well. He'll just be observing us for now. Come here. "

He turned back to her book and the little girl gave a final thumbs up before going over to the lady and continued to read.

" Wait, you're saying that a few thousands of years ago, there were underground labs and high tech prison cells? Are you joking? Is this really the history of Kambori or is it the future? "

Any of us would have the same question, and Matilda was definitely one who you can't compare with. The lady laughed at this and with a calm face, she spoke with a serious tone about it. It seemed like she wasn't joking nor was it telling the truth.

" You might think of it that way, but this group was never known to our world, so they collected the smartest and most genius people they could find on Earth, even through the renaissance and the civil wars, they were always collecting individuals with the mind of a genius while the rest of the civilization were only planning on wars and slavery,... "

Matilda took a deep breath to think about what she said. It made sense, people never had any care about technology until it had developed a little to inspire others, yet only a few did it. If the scientists that were working on the Kamborians that had been living on Earth as a researcher and inventor, their technology would have been more developed and they would have been living at least a 100 years forward compared to the Earth now.

" But even if that's true, how is this story explained in so much detail that it seems off? Like it's a fictional story instead of history? "

" You ask a lot of questions young lady, and like there are many people who search for the so-called ' True History ' but end up making their own story instead of history. In order to avoid that, the ancestors made many documents of what it was like so clearly that some of the writers were killed for it. While some hide their works and pass it through generations. Now this one is the copy of the FENG EMPIRE version of the history of their time unto the 2000s. "

" Sus... But you can continue... "

" Thank you, Matilda...

As the fire bender was sent down to the underground as he was now theirs, the Ice bender had found a way to escape 20 years later. In the end, the Mākmā Clan was a fierce tribe among the tribes & Airesalju was the most peaceful. But these tribes always fought each other for generations starting from the beginning & maybe there would be an end to it soon enough. But then, Blue Fires, beings that have emerged through the wars, emerged from the injury and the people, started to fight for revenge.

Then the Keravnós Fýlakas, otherwise known as the Lightning Guardians from the lands of Astrapí, named by the Greeks from Gī, was the savior of both the Mākmā Clans & the Airesalju Kingdoms. With the powers of lightning, the Keravnós Fýlakas grew up to have become another secret tribe as Astrapí, but it wasn't included as a tribe of Kambori; because it was just thought to be the combination of Fire & Ice. Feeling rejected, the Keravnós Fýlakas gave up ever being the hero in the history & the Blue Fires had control over those 2 tribes ever since.

Our main languages are Tamil, Indonesian, Chinese & Greek . Almost every school teaches these languages, but they also teach Kamborian too. Soon, they developed greatly from a ... not so little village to 4 prosperous GIGANTIC cities, kingdoms, Tribes & countries.With different cultures, traditions, everyday routines & food.

Every decade, a group of many people will go out to the world to collect new cultures, traditions, religions - along with songs, dance routines, food, passing trends & weapons. It's called a Kaṇṭupiṭippukaḷ, (it seems long but if you correctly say the word, it's short pronounced, so short that you feel like it's not much of a word.)

And they named their tribes differently, & had different languages: Airesalju, the Indonesian & British Kingdoms of Ice, Water & Snow, Mākmā, the Tamil & Nigerian Clans of Fire, Lava & Magma, Fēng, the Chinese Dynasties of all types Wind & Gī, the Greek United States of Earth, Sediments, Igneous & Metamorphic people.

All were very powerful but clueless about how they would live with their powers now interfering with their lives. After that, they were imprisoned by an evil team of scientists. They were once part of the former team that worked on the same theory, & they were the best of the groups. They firstly agreed because they thought they're just going to get money for the ' most probably failing ' project.

But then when they saw that it was full of success, they wanted that power. Why? Well, it's kinda obvious, the test subjects, now called tribes, tribes of Kambori, started using their powers to control nature! That's why the scientists imprisoned them. That team made a very risky and unacceptable deal. They said that if the tribes hand over their powers to their team, they will set them free. But if not, they will become their greatest nightmare. "

In a different scene, a man sat in an empty space, with no door, no windows, and no furniture except for 2 chairs and a table. This man had been handcuffed and had been sitting there for hours, wondering what was going to happen and how he got inside. Suddenly, some kind of human figure emerged from the ground, and as soon as the light above him flickered, the man was already bleeding because of the speed of another figure's... Slaps?

Ooh, it was a lady, wearing a business woman's suit and had a tight bun with sleek glasses. Unfortunately, her clothes and accessories were all covered with blood at the damage she had caused to the person. She then turned over to the man with a vicious yet emotionless face. She stared right into his eyes, making the man almost tremble like it's the end and pass out.

She turns over to another man who had emerged from the ground like an elevator, but this guy had a sketchbook in his hand and was extremely nervous because in his sight was the legendary spy of the FLASK AGENCY, Bellevue Horror. And he, as a noob spy, was very afraid of what she might do to him since he had arrived late. But luckily, she didn't do anything to him.

" Alright, Sketcher 2.10 -, which element are you trying to master? "

He blushes as he looks down in fear. Shivering and sweating every second.

" I'd... I'd like to master Earth. "

She looks him in the eye in the most terrifying way.

" Never look down while talking. As your teacher and guide to the underworld I'll have to tell you that I won't be too genuine. "

" Yes Ma'am. "

He quickly got his back straight, and there was her gorgeous face and her clean hair. She also felt a little flustered, because she could see right through his glasses and mask, and to find out he was amazingly handsome. She kept her feelings to herself though as she turned towards the man before talking again.

" Now, what element in the periodic table have you mastered? "

" Only... 3... "

" What are they? "

" Iron… Oxygen... And Carbon... "

" Not a bad start to mastering Earth, but you still have a long way to go before being able to pick up the floor. Maybe try controlling cement for now. "

" Yes. Ma'am. "

" And I don't believe you really can do Oxygen. "

" I… I can, Ms. Horror. "

" Then try suffocating this man by draining all the air out of him. "

The man, shocked at what he was hearing, quickly started pleading for mercy. With a satisfied face, Bellevue Horror reveals a mischievous grin.

" Alright then, tell me then, what's your real identity? "

" Over my dead body! "

" Ohhhh, sure, I'll let you have that. "

She raises her hand and makes a hand sign for Sketcher to come over to her.

" Sketcher 2.10 - Get all the Oxygen out of this guy and kill him. "

" What!? I can't kill an actual person! "

She then looks over to him and gives him a slight raise of an eyebrow and winked before turning back over to the man.

" Get this excuse of a man disposed of. And don't make me say this twice, Sketcher 2.10. "

The man quickly started talking out of fear. Babbling like a child.

" I'm part of the Penjahats! They expected me to bring them Bloody Heaven and they were planning on analysing her! They said that she has the ability to heal even the worst conditions and seems to be stronger than an army of Samoris! "

" It's not about Bloody Heaven that I'm talking about. I expect you to tell me all about these Penjahats before I could do that myself. "

She raises her index finger and fire shoots out of it like a flame thrower.

" Which is worse? Burning to death, or suffocating to death? "

The man cried in a worrisome face and started talking super fast.

" The Penjahats are planning on bringing Bloody Heaven's other verse from another dimension! They're going through which girl to get. But up to now they're on debate for Bloody Heaven 10.4.2010 and 5.2.2010 - "

" I want information on who else is with the Penjahats, not anything else about that shitty girl! "

" Uhhh… well… There's one agent amongst you that I know is a Penjahat… "

" Who!? Tell me! "

" Co - "

Suddenly, he seems to be electrocuted from the inside as the man shivered demonically as if some demon had entered inside of him. Bellevue took a step back as she looked in horror, the man had his skin rip and blood escaping from his mouth and eyes. He cried in agony before falling unconscious, clearly looking dead in front of Sketcher and Bellevue.

In panic, Sketcher left hurriedly as she sat down on the second chair in wonder, looking at the dead man with a bit of boredom.

" Where are you...? Bloody Heaven...? "

She started thinking about how she had lost her memories for the last 3 years due to an accident with this Bloody Heaven. The one who caused her to lose her memories was then called by that name because she had the special blood needed to save humanity.

But she has other plans in her mind.

Then another man came through the same process, he was tall and sleek, with handsome yet terrifying looks that covered his face with a dark and sinister smile.

" Ms. Horror, Bloody Heaven have now been located, shall I follow her until you make the decision? "

" Please do. But, mark my words, Theodore, anything else and I'll have to fire you for good, you understand? "

" Yes, Ms. Horror. "

" Off you go... Theodore Corpse... "

He made an even more sinister smile before he scraped off some dirt from his shoulder and carried the man down with him.
