Princess Isabel

Kr媒o(Kree-o) Kaf瘫t贸(Calf-toe)

Isabel P.O.V.

I am the princess of the Kr媒o Kingdom. I am 9 years old with long, wavy, dark brown hair that distinguishes next to my light skin. I have the most beautiful eyes, as my father describes them. They are a pale turquoise with light silver. 

Though I am not suppose to I am training with my older brothers. They are not really my brothers but I've been with them for so long it seems that way to me. They were selected to be my personal guards when they were young. We have always trained near the woods where my father nor my mother would see us. I have always loved training, it has always been exciting. We usually don't go too far into the woods because they are what separates us from our neighboring enemy the Kaf瘫t贸 Kingdom. They are evil, hot-headed, self-centered, fiery devils, or at least that's what my father says. 

Today was different though, we were practicing when I playfully ran into the woods, as they attacked me. I swiftly ran through the woods dodging every tree, jumping over roots. I was quick for my age, but I knew they weren't too far behind, so I thought of a plan on how to loose them. I made quick turn around huge trees. Once I quickly glanced back I couldn't see them, I knew I had lost them. When I turned back I quickly stopped. I was in awe as I stared and walked towards the beauty standing before me. It was a tree, not an ordinary tree though. I was standing in the middle of an encirclement of trees, in the middle stood the queen of all trees. The light shun beautifully on its golden colored trunk. It was the biggest tree no doubt. I slowly walked around its trunk carefully caressing its smooth trunk as I gently put my finger tips on it. I get the urge to climb it, all the way to the top. As I'm grabbing onto one of the branches to begin my ascending, a hand grabs my arm and I undergo a weird sensation at the touch. I look back to find a man looking down at me with irritation and fiery in his eyes. I looked at him frightened and paralyzed. This man was from the Kaf瘫t贸 Kingdom. With a quick and harsh pull he got me down. 

"What do you think you're doing?" He questioned in a raspy, harsh voice. I could not answer, I couldn't find words. So once again he asked but this time he said it angered and with authority. 

"I asked a question, what do you think you are doing?" 

I could not show fear, I am a princess and shall not let anyone, especially someone from the opposing side frighten me. I would be queen one day and the queen cannot be weak. I looked at him with a mad face and spoke with authority. 

"You shall not speak to me like you control me! I should be the one asking you why you are on our land!" 

"Oh princess," he said with a grin on his face as he gently swiped his finger across my tiara,"I apologize but you are mistaken. For this is not Kr媒o this is Kaf瘫t贸. You have no authority here. And for trespassing onto our land and touching the sacred tree we have the right to take you back with us to the castle as our prisoner." 

He suddenly grabbed my arm and brutally began to pull me. 

"I believe that's where you are mistaken!" Logan barked. 

I look over at Logan and all four of them are in battle mode. When my people are in battle mode, they are dangerous. But so are the people of the Kaf瘫t贸 kingdom. For there is a reason why we are the "cold" Kingdom and they are the "hot" Kingdom. For many years my people can control water and ice while the Kaf瘫t贸 Kingdom can control fire. Though with everyone of my people being different. Some like Mason and Spencer can control water. While Logan and Trent can control water and freeze things. 

"Let her go now!" Mason demanded. 

"Ugh. Children are so irritating." He pushed me towards my brothers and Logan grabbed me right away,"We have no time to play your foolish child games." 

They walked away and soon disappeared. 

"What were you thinking crossing the border like that! And you touched the sacred tree! Do you know what you had just done!" Logan exclaimed as I feel my eyes fill with tears,"Don't cry, I apologize for yelling at you. I'm just so upset, you almost got taken. Not to mention you could've been hurt." 

"I'm sorry." I looked down at the ground. 

"Come on, we should go back to the castle and tell the king and queen." Trent proclaimed walking towards the castle.

The War

"Why would you be so close to the forest in the first place!" I could here my father yelling from outside of his study. 

I barge in shocking my mother, father, and the boys. 

"It's not their fault. I ran into those woods on my own. They followed me in, it's their obligation to follow me and keep me safe. I was the one who ran away from them. If you are to blame anyone it should be me, father." 

I was upset because they were being blamed for what I have done and was not fair. I should be the one dealing with the consequences. 

"Young lady! Must we..." 

But before my father could continue one of our guards barged into the room. 

"Excuse me for barging in your highness but I must announce the Kaf瘫t贸 soldiers have started preparing to attack the border." 

"Get the men ready. We must be prepared for anything. I shall try to convince King Feron there is no point in starting a war." He looked at me then the boys,"We will deal with this later, get ready to protect the castle, only two of you shall stay with my daughter." 

He walked out of the study, my mother following right behind. 

"Why did you do that!" Mason exclaimed once my parents were out of hearing range. 

Before I could answer Logan interrupted,"There's no point in arguing now. Like King David said we will talk about this later. Mason, you and I shall go. Trent, Spencer, you two take Princess Isabel to her room and keep her safe." 

Nothing else was said. Logan and Mason went off to prepare while Trent and Spencer took me to my room. Once inside Trent locked the door and stood guard while Spencer went and stood guard by the balcony doors. 

My father tried to convince King Feron but he wouldn't listen. I always believed there wasn't anyone more stubborn than my father but I was wrong. He just wouldn't want to hear my fathers explanations. I tried myself to speak to him but he was to arrogant to listen.

The years grew longer and so did the war. 

I was in the family room playing the piano when I suddenly heard the front door being slammed open. 

"Hurry get him to the infirmary!" 

A couple of guards rushed in with my father on a transfer gurney. 

"Father! Dimitri, what occurred? Why is my father injured?" 

"I apologize my princess, your father got wounded in the field." 

"What! I told him he shouldn't be out there!" 

"Please Princess, it would be better if you stayed calm." 

"Were you there when this occurred?" 

"Yes Princess." 

I heard footsteps behind me coming closer, it was my mother. 

"Well, why is he injured? Who did this?" 

"I'm sad to say it was me, Princess." 

My mother stepped closer to him enraged. 

"Why would you harm my husband, YOUR King!" 

"I apologize for it was an accident. My intention was injuring a soldier on the other side. I was attempting to injure Prince Damien." 

"If my father dies, so does his!" 

I ran off to my room and shut the door. I walked over to the window to look out. I looked out and saw, not too far was a battle occurring, one of the many my foolishness began. And farther in the distance was the castle of my enemy. 

It was sunset when they gave us the news that my father was okay. 

"Hello father." 

My mother and I slowly walked into his room. 

"What did we tell you David!" 

"Silvia please. Can't we discuss this afterwards?" 

"This is why I told you I can go fight for you." 

"Isabel, we have been through this. A princess shall not be out in the battle field. Your place is here, in the castle." 

"I can't believe it! I just can't believe you think that way!" 

I stormed off to my room. 

I was walking back and forth, angry for what he had just said. It had just gotten dark when I walked over to the window and noticed a fire by the border. 

"It must be a Kaf瘫t贸 camp." 

I kept looking at the camp then I noticed the big tent. 

"Wait. That could be... He's there... I could easily get to him." 

I smile and go to my closet and change into a pair of black leggings, a loose, short black dress, and black flats. On my way out I grabbed my black cloak. Quickly and swiftly I went downstairs and out the back door. I fully cover myself with my cloak and run through the woods. Soon I see the camp. I checked to make sure the soldiers walking around don't see me and sneak over to the big tent. I wait for the two soldiers to pass then sneak in. 

"Hello King Feron." 

He turns around, looks at me, then smiles. 

"Well, you must be Princess Isabel. Its nice to finally meet you." 

"We need to end this war, now." 

"Shall I remind you princess, this is you're fault." 

"No it's not. it's your fault for being stubborn." 

"Your father would have done the same thing." 

"No he wouldn't, my father may be stubborn but he knows right from wrong." 

"I will not allow you..." 

"Look, I just want to end this. I want all the suffering and pain this war brings to stop. I'll do anything, just please, stop the war." 

"Hmm, anything?" 

He looked at me with wonder. I too, wondered myself. What could he want? What would he make me do? No matter what, I would have to do it, for the sake of my people. 

"Yes. As long as you end the war." 

"Fine, I will end the war. I will send my people back, tell my men to retreat at sunrise." 

I smiled I was so happy I could hug him, though I wouldn't. 

"Thank you so much sir. I can't wait to tell my father..." 

"Ah ah ah, wait." 

My smile slowly disappeared at the thought of what he would say. 

"I will tell my men, but... you must do something in return."
