Chapter three

Klike and Felix flew towards the mountains. They would have to go in between them to reach the fire tribes domain. Klike closed his eyes as they passed through. He gasped, the fire tribe was spread out below him. From the mountains flowed lava rivers which cascaded down the side and wove throught the small village. Different creatures flew through the air. They all cast a glance at Klike and Felix before continuing on their way.

  Some bat-like creatures flew towards them. Klike stared as they grew closer. They were like big black and purple eyes with bat wings. They surrounded Klike and brought him to an opening in the mountain.

Klike hopped off of Felix. He leaned in and whispered. "Could you stay here and watch for surprises."

   Felix nodded and Klike hugged him. Klike followed the strange creatures down the sloping tunnel. It was so dark he couldn't see his hand in front of his face. He touched the wall only to discover it was hot. He pulled his hand away and inspected it. The wall was made out of layers of ruby. Through the wall he could see the dim glow of lave. They were in the middle of a lava stream. Klike looked nervously around. If the wall broke he would die..

  A pinpoint of light appeared and soon they came into a big opened space. In the middle on a small raised stone was a throne. Sitting on the throne was a guy. He looked strong and was elaborately dressed with gems and jewels mounted on ring and molded into gold. He was looking closely at Klike.

"Come forwards Entegres." He said loudly.

   The bat-like creatures flew over to him and the started to talk.

"Master." Icebreath called out.


"What is it?" An annoyed voice called out.

  Zorzon was feeling a little sick. He refused to go to bed and the doctor said he was a stubborn mule. Zorzon, in his bad mood, put the doctor in prison. He locked him in the lowest dungeon and walked away.

"The green dragon is gone. That means one of the guardians is gone. If you weren't feeling sick than we could attack."

"I don't care if I am sick. We will attack go and get Icespear."

"Yes master."

A FEW HOURS LATER

  Zorzon walked unto his balcony.

"Warriors of the ice tribe, stand at ease." He commanded.

  They all stopped talking and stood facing him.

"As you all know, we are about to take place in a huge battle. I have a secret."

  All the warriors looked at him in surprise. Zorzon walked to one of his pillars. He pushed it to the side. The floor slowly sank down. When it stopped, Zorzon stepped off and into a room. The room was full of cannonballs, Swords and other weapons. Zorzon picked up a handful and started to laugh.

  Klike fiddled with his fingers as he waited. The Entegres and the fire chief had been discussing for well over an hour. Klike was just wasting time. Finally the fire chief looked up and beckoned him forwards. The Entegres stationed themselves on either side of his throne. Klike nervously bagan to talk.

"I came-"

"Stop, I didn't ask you to speak." The chief interrupted. "Speak."

Klike shook his head "The Woodland chief askes you to honor a treaty signed by his dad and yours. We need your help to battle the ice tribe."

"Hmm."

"Hmm, That's it?"

"Don't speak disrespectfully to me." The fire chief said sternly.

"What is you answer?" Klike asked.

"I need to hold a meeting with my tribe. We will decide what to do."

"Ok."

"You can wait around though you can't attend the meeting since your not a member."

"Ok."

  The fire chief stood up and summoned his guards.

"Call all the warriors to the meeting fire."

"Yes sir."

    Zorzon looked proudly at his secret store of weapons. He had been saving them for ages. He stacked a bunch unto the floor elevator and slowly rode up. His tribe was staring at where he disappeared. Some looked with astonishment and others with fear. When he emerged they gave a great cheer. He shouted.

"I need strong men to help me with all this heavy stuff. In this war don't worry about breaking your sword and spear. i will give you a new one made of gold or diamond."

  The crowd gave another cheer. A few strong men stepped up and helped him distribute them to the crowd. Zorzon made sure that everyone had a good weapon.

"We will leave at twilight." He said. The crowd shouted and looked to the mainland where the woodlands lived. The water was full of different creatures that cheered and swam around excitedly.
