The Battle For Almia ! (Credit to Guest_xXxEmoBoyToyxXx)

[NinjaLadiesMan]

The land of Almia is home to 7 different elemental races , they are , Fire , Water , Wind , Ice , Earth , Light and Darkness , these races once lived in peace but eventually they started fighting over who was the best race and who would rule over all of the other races , in the end the land of Almia was split apart into 7 different kingdoms , each race claiming their own land respectively , Fire being the largest Kingdom and Darkness being the smallest , after nearly 250 years of peace and prosperity the kingdom of Water decided that they wanted to expand their territory , Water being the second largest kingdom then attacked the kingdom of Earth , Earth being the fourth largest kingdom Earth alarmed by the sudden attack by the land of Water sent out the call for help , and the kingdom of Fire answered with the overwhelming numbers of both the kingdoms of Earth and Fire, Water had no choice but to stop it's attack and retreat into it's own kingdom , but the kingdom of Earth furious that the kingdom of Water had betrayed them then demanded that the kingdom of Water be destroyed before they could comment such an act of war again , the lands of Wind , Ice and Light all sided with the kingdom of Water and stated that any attack made against the kingdom of Water would be considered an attack on themselves as well and they would retaliate with immediate countermeasures against the offending kingdom , the kingdoms of Fire and Darkness however agreed with the kingdom of Earth and believed that the kingdom of Water should be destroyed and that anyone who stood in the way of their goal would also be destroyed , and so the land of Almia was split into two , The alliance of the North being the kingdoms of Water , Wind , Ice and Light , The alliance of the south being the kingdoms of Earth,Fire and Darkness , and so the north and the south are constantly at war , so pick a side pick a Race and get ready for the battle for Almia . (hope you like the idea cause it took a while.

At least that is what he shows on the surface but in reality he is struggling with this bone deep depression due to some terrible events in his past but he tries for everyone around him to be the best he can be and seem the happiest he can be. He is only concerned with the well being of those around him and will do anything to make people happy. He had been described and a very kind and caring person who is mischievous in a non harmful way. He knows not what stories and advantures await him in the up coming future of his life but then again who really knows and who would really want to know because as stated by a wise man: “Without mysteries, life would be very dull indeed.” There are three instruments that he care for and can play with the skill beyond that of a mortal man. They are the cello, the violin, and the piano.
History: His past was a depressing one at that and would have usually turned someone into either a crazy person or a really bad person. But not Kuroku and soon after watching his entire family being killed by his girlfriend and best friend who conseqeintly killed themselves he left the town he was born in with a heart full of depression and no plans at all. Due to the fact that he was from a relatively poor family he had no money at the time and had to sleep in the cold. Then during his travels he cam across a old woman who was traveling alone he offered to help her and she accepted he traveled with the old lady for the longest time and eventually they reached their destination but alas things turned to the worst for Kuroku the old woman was murdered right in front of him. He was distraught and he despaired and when he though all was lost he met her. She was a girl named Harmony and something about her reawakened something inside of him that he had thought lost to him and that was emotion. They parted friends for she was not of this world and could not stay in it so they parted and he carried on him journey and he met a lot of different people who taught him a lot of different things and he became a better person because of those things.

In the dark...

Where shadowy fields are gardened by black roses,
Upon the horizon is a rainbow seven shades of gray,
The land of the hopeless,
Where souls have come to cry their eternity away,

In the dark...

The tall dead grasses whip at their knees,
Hollow mountains full of cries,
Screams echoing in the forrest trees,
Along an ocean of soundless tides.

In the dark,

A sky clouded by spider webs,
In a barrier between death and sleep,
Bring the Gods another soul to condemn,
This is the place where we come to weep.

In the dark...

Upon the sky is a full moon of red,
Looking down on armies of monsters and fiends,
Is this where we go when we are gone?
Or is it a place that haunts us in our dreams.

History: Her childhood was not a pleasant one, having been born into the smallest kingdom. She had to be cunning and quick witted to keep up with the war. Most certainly she did not want to be the average princess who stood by and made mere suggestions. No, she was all too enticed by the warriors and that she wanted to become one of them. So she trained long and hard to become someone of stealth and hostility. Finally she was introduced as something in the sort of a secret weapon. Just send her in the right direction and she can work her way from there.

[NinjaLadiesMan]

((Start))

Kuroku finished off the last of the Fire Benders Patrol. he had done it without a single one screaming this time. Tears began to fall from his face he cleaned his blade. Wind whistled through the valley he was in and it ruffled his hair and clothing. "I am sorry..." was all he said as he walked through the valley so aptly named the Valley Of Death.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Portland watched her companion Kuroku from afar and say the tears falling from his eyes. She felt sadness welling up inside her. She hated killing as much as he but she knew it was necessary to keep their kingdoms safe and because their kingdoms bordered each other they has put the two together.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Farthen wandered the coastline so beautiful. He sighed, "If I must kill to protect this then I will for without it I am nothing."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Frederick was playing with his cat when he heard the news, "His brother the Prince of the Fire Nation was killed while on patrol in the Valley of Death. He was so shocked he couldn't cry. His brother has been so strong so invincible in his eyes that the foundations of his world were now shattered. "How aptly name...The Valley Of Death...." He started crying.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kuroku arrived at the camp and sighed and slumped down against the cliff wall. "I am tired of war....so tired." He fell asleep with a sad look on his face. The moonlight played strange patterns on his face. The tired breeze ruffled his hair.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Portland didn't say a word and she also sighed, "This war is tearing him apart they always do in the beginning and for a year or so afterwards as well but in the middle all the way to the end a numbness becomes present in the heart." She pulls out her violin and begins to play, "For all those who have died and will die." Tears begin to run down her face.

The funeral band was out playing its sad tune for the troops leaving.
Farthen assumed position at the head of the column of the kingdoms finest cavalry devision. The 62nd Cavalry Devision was the most feared fighting force in the kingdoms simply because they changed the tides of battle. They could fight any sort of fight for they could fight in any condition.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Frederick watched as his father descended further into madness at the news of his brother's death.
"I am assuming command of all things Fire Kingdom from the economy to the military."
"But sir..I am not sure if you are..."
"Are....what qualified or experienced enough. Well then tell me to stop what I am doing and you will be executed for treason."
"Hail sire."

[TheMissyMassacre]

After hearing the news of one of the Fire Kingdom princes had died in battle, Evange thought it fit to send her condolences to the royal family, though she wasn't considerate enough to tell her own family her whereabouts. She vaguely knew the remaining prince and was nervous about going to see him; but she had to find out what was going to happen concerning the king's overwhelming grief! Taking in a deep breath, Evange stepped through one of her Shadow portals and shortly arrived in the Fire Kingdom, thankful that she had sent word earlier of her visit.

[NinjaLadiesMan]

Kuroku was dreaming of horrible things the words of a poem kept running through his head one tolld to him by a friend a long time ago.
In the dark...

Where shadowy fields are gardened by black roses,
Upon the horizon is a rainbow seven shades of gray,
The land of the hopeless,
Where souls have come to cry their eternity away,

In the dark...

The tall dead grasses whip at their knees,
Hollow mountains full of cries,
Screams echoing in the forrest trees,
Along an ocean of soundless tides.

In the dark,

A sky clouded by spider webs,
In a barrier between death and sleep,
Bring the Gods another soul to condemn,
This is the place where we come to weep.

In the dark...

Upon the sky is a full moon of red,
Looking down on armies of monsters and fiends,
Is this where we go when we are gone?
Or is it a place that haunts us in our dreams.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Portland was still playing her song. With tears streaming down her face.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Farthen and his cavalry were approaching the Fire Bender's Border when they saw her. He recognized her, "Hello assassin he called out."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Frederick sighed, "Report please." He was speaking to his council.
"Sire this boils down to one point. If we don't get allies soon we are dead."
Frederick sighed, "I was afraid of that. My father was a idiot to think that the Fire Kingdom could take the rest of them down."

[TheMissyMassacre]

Evange raised an eye brow when she heard someone call her 'assassin'. She resisted the urge to tell them how she actually had a name. Instead she flashed them a smile and cautiously approached them. "I am here to see the royal family. Can you lead me there?" It was disappointing that she couldn't teleport all the way there, but that probably would have been rude. Coming off as a rude princess would not bode well.

[NinjaLadiesMan]

Farthen, "Oh never mind you are not who I thought you were. But where are my manners I am Farthen and you are..."

[TheMissyMassacre]

She once again raised her eyebrow at his comment. Twirling a strand of her black curly hair Evange replied, "I'm Evange. It's pleasure to meet you Farthen, but I am in a bit of a hurry." She flashed him another polite smile impressed by how he was almost purposly wasting her time.

[NinjaLadiesMan]

Farthen smiled, "You have time to talk to me. Trust me the politer you are to me the faster you will get there. So where is it you want to go and why if you don't mind my asking."

[TheMissyMassacre]

To think he was even talking to her like that! Evange smirked, "I am on my way to see Prince Frederick because I must speak to him on a...somewhat personal matter." She mentally slapped herself for thinking of how Farthen had a nice smile. Now was not the time to go about acting like some little fan girl.

[NinjaLadiesMan]

"Oh so you are the Princess of the Shadow Benders Evange. I am sorry but you are under arrest. I am General Farthen of the Ice Kingdom. You may or may not be aware of this fact but there is a Alliance that has been formed to to destroy the Fire and the Shadow Kingdoms for the reason that the Fire Kingdom recently declared war upon us all and the Shadow Kingdom joined the wrong side I guess you could say. Again, I am terribly sorry...." As he was speaking his men has surrounded the Princess.

[TheMissyMassacre]

Evange cursed herself for teleporting too close to the border as she was surrounded. She frowned as she realized that she should have told someone of shadow kingdom where was leaving to. Her fingers twitched, wanting to have her dagger ready in her palm. There weren't too many shadows around so she wasn't at her strongest. "General Farthen? I'm impressed that someone such as yourself singled me out."

[NinjaLadiesMan]

"None of that..." As he said this he froze time around her. He hopped off of his horse and went and bound her hands and thoroughly disarmed her. He picked her up and set her on his horse and hopped up behind her. "Lets go we need to fortify a position and set up a temporary camp until we can get the ice benders out here to make us a fortress." With that they rode away.

[TheMissyMassacre]

Evange had just planned to talk to Prince Frederick out of the goodness of her heart, and then she goes off and gets herself arrested! She hadn't expected Farthen to be able to control time, so for once she was caught off gaurd. The shadows around them pulsed with energy as she attempted to solidify them in a futile attempt. Perhaps she could send out a quick message somehow...

[NinjaLadiesMan]

"No need for that...the rest of the world will know that we have you soon enough." He sighed and said, "I wish I didn't have to do this to you Princess."

[TheMissyMassacre]

The shadows continued to pulse just as a angry side effect. Why would he feel sorry?! He would probably be praised by his kingdom for bringing her in! Something about this guy confused her to great lengths. She just sat on the horse looking grim and disgusted with him and herself for her stupid actions.

[NinjaLadiesMan]

((i got nothing brain dead for a moment here let me think))

[TheMissyMassacre]

((POST!!!!))

[NinjaLadiesMan]

Farthen sighed, "You are probably wondering why I am sorry about all of this I know I would be wondering this to. So i guess the reason would be that I have no hatred towards you or any of the people who are attacking us only pity and compassion. I try to look at this war from all sides of the story and have to realize that maybe if our kingdom or if all of the kingdoms would just band together and help each other out then wars like this would not occur." He said this slowly and thoughtfully. The only sound besides his words were the noises of his men and their horses.

[TheMissyMassacre]

Evange was silent as she glared daggers at him while he explained himself. He was still strange, almost like he could read her thoughts, especially the way he has an answer to everything she does. Still, she couldn’t help but be impressed by his way of thinking. Sure she also thought he was a bit too passionate, that he was living in dreamland. As she pondered this in the silence that clung to them, she figured she had to say something. “It’s almost as if you can read my thoughts too. You’re just full of surprises.” Her green eyes grew dark as she looked away from him, not wanting him to see the eerie blank expression on her face.

[NinjaLadiesMan]

"Would you hate me if I told you that you are actually easy to read...what I mean is that there are so many people out there who think I am foolish for the way I look at the world and treat my enemies and my friends....but what do they know of me...how can they possibly begin to fathom the kind of person I am...who I am..." He fell silent and they rode on.

[TheMissyMassacre]

The expression on Evange’s face was now a look of disdain. She didn’t have time to be here listening to him! She needed to get to the fire kingdom. Surely they would have started wondering why she was late in her arrival. Sighing softly, she discreetly reminded herself that she couldn’t always depend on others to get her out of trouble. “I don’t hate you exactly. I just hate what you’re doing.” She shrugged her shoulders as if it were the most obvious thing.
