Chapter 2 - V
You froze as you saw an Elemental. He was taller than the regular ones you saw. His white head was also transculscent and showed no symbol of an element.
"What in Inamorta happened here?" He asked as he looked at the Charrogs. But he looked at you and wore the same shocked expression.
"Another V?" He said. You didn't know what he meant. But you went on alert mode as he started walking towards you.
You slowly backed away, ready to bolt through the trees in case the Elemental would attack.
But he didn't. Although he was shocked, he was trying to calm you down. "Its ok. I won't hurt you." He told you.
"I just want to know who you are and what you are doing here." But after he finished, you both heard a blast.
You immediately looked at the source. There was an Inferno. "Hey V, I heard shouting. Is everything-" But the Inferno stopped when he saw you.
You wasted no time in charging at both of them. You targeted the Inferno first. You managed to stun him with your lightning (idk if this is true).
He was pushed back and took a while to recover. You readied your sword to deal the final hit.
"STOP!" You heard a shout as you crashed your sword on the Inferno, only to be blocked by the white Elemental.
Your eyes widened as he used a similar sword to block your attack. He pushed you away but you retained your balance.
He defended the Inferno as you tried to figure out a strategy. But the Inferno recovered and stood beside the white Elemental in a fighting stance.
You saw that there was no way you could win 1 against 2. So, you dropped your hands by your side.
You got ready to teleport away. But the white Elemental tried to stop you. "No! Wait, please don't go!" He frantically said.
You ignored him and teleported back to your cave home. You sighed and panted for a while to recover your energy.
You let your sword disappear as you walked over to your bed. You took the book you were reading a while ago and shifted through the pages.
It was as if nothing happened at all. But you couldn't shrug of the feeling of fear and uneasiness coursing through your veins.
??? POV
I pleaded for the girl to stay but she teleported away. I looked around in hope that she only went a short distance. I was wrong. She was out of sight.
I looked over to my friend, Flare, as he also tried looking around for the girl. I sighed and made my sword disappear.
"Did you just see that?" Flare asked. I nodded. "It seems like Im not the last after all." I replied.
The Charrog guards stood up and apologized for letting the V get away. I forgave them, saying that she caught us by surprise.
I looked at one of the guards. "Tell the empire to be aware of any Elemental that looks like me." I commanded. "We will start a search for that girl immediately."
The Charrog nodded. "Yes, my king." He answered as he and the other guard walked away.
When they left, Flare looked in the direction of the forest. "You think we'll be able to find her?" He asked me.
I look at him. "Don't worry." I replied. "I only gave out that command so that the other Elementals can try to stay safe. I can track her down easily."
Flare smiled at my words. "But I need to go alone." I said. "If I go with an army or squadron, we might spook her and she'll just teleport away again."
Flare nodded. "Another V then?" He asked. "Yes." I replied. I walked back to the castle, Flare following behind.
I hope we find that other V soon.
Back To Regular POV
You read and finished more books to calm down after the experience with the white Elemental.
But you still had so many questions. Who was that guy? Why was he also white like you? And why did he care about a couple of Chomplers?
Questions flooded your mind, but you shook it off. You read through the pages of a book until you got tired.
You yawned and put the book back. You went over to your bed. You fell asleep as your thoughts lingered in your dreams.
The next day, you woke up to a sound coming from outside. You stretched and walked to the entrance of your cave.
'Probably just a Scorpling or something.' You thought. You peeked outside and froze.
Walking around the thicket was the same Elemental you met yesterday. He held no weapon, though you knew he could create one anytime.
You saw as his head cocked to your direction. You immediately hid back. You heard him sigh. "I know you're there." He said.
You pretended that you weren't there. You got ready a sword. "Im not here to hurt you. I swear!" He cried to you.
You heard his footsteps approaching the cave. Would he actually dare enter your home? Yes.
When he went too close, you jumped at him. You started a small wrestle fight as both of you tried to pin the other to the ground.
Both of you teleported away from each other. You were now facing him while he was standing about 4 meters away from you.
The white Elemental raised both of his hands. You looked at him confusedly as he backed away.
"See? Im not going to lay a finger on you." He said. You scoffed. "But you did earlier." You told him.
Seeing that he was not much of a threat, you lowered your sword. The white Elemental put down his hands.
"Who are you?" He asked. You glared at him. "First of all, who are you? And what makes you think you can just walk into my house?" You snarled.
The white Elemental hesitated for a while. You were about to turn away but you heard him reply.
"My name is V, King and god of the Elementals."
