Chapter 27

Several days after we left the Fairy Forest and so far we had only run into more and more creatures, creatures straight out of a fairytale. We had managed to defeat them all but we were running on fumes and exhausted. Two days ago Prince and Volcan started fighting each other. "Would you stop walking near me! Your body is giving off too much heat for anyone's comfort!" Prince snarled at Volcan.

Volcan snarled back, "How dumb are you? I'm a fire spirit! What did you expect? A cool breeze?"

Ice frowned as he listened to them, worrying over this infighting as Kitty spoke, "Sphinx, Chimera...get your people under control!"

Chimera speaks, "You don't think we've tried? Volcan isn't in the mood to listen to reason."

Sphinx chattering, "Prince is being stubborn. He says Volcan is annoying and too close to...someone..." He eyes me for a second before looking back at Kitty which makes me worried that he was thinking something about me.

I looked at Invent who shrugged but then smiled and grabbed Volcan's arm, gently pulling on him to lead him away from Prince, "Hey, why don't we go collect firewood for a fire? I think we all could use a break."

Ice nods his head, "I think Invent has a good idea and we should set up camp for the night," he looks down at Kitty, "Let's go find something to eat." The six of them *Kitty, Uni and Chimera went with them* left to go find firewood and food, leaving me with Prince, Sphinx and Kraken.

It was awkward as silence reigned supreme until finally Sphinx spoke."You know this is a very beautiful spot. Perfect for a little romantic snuggle or some deep confessions. What do you say, Kraken, shall we take a nice little nap over in the shade of that tree?" Kraken nodded and the two went over to the specified spot where Sphinx continued talking to Kraken.

I waited a few more seconds before I asked, "So...what's really got you so upset?" Prince looked at me surprised for a few seconds before he looked away, blushing lightly. "Their seems to be more to the story then just Volcan being too hot."

"I'm just sick of all this traveling and fighting! It feels like all we do is travel and fight! I miss my home..." Prince finally responded.

Gently touching his shoulder, I responded, "I understand you but it's not fair to be getting mad at our friends. Volcan didn't cause this and he doesn't want this to continue either. Maybe we could go visit the Elven Kingdom if we asked Ice." Prince looked at me for a bit before he finally gave a tiny smile and a nod making me smile back at him. We got a temporary shelter set up which was just a tarp tied to the branches of a few trees to create a canopy over the spot where our sleeping bags were.

He gave a sigh suddenly, "Look Flame...Thanks. I guess with the increase of attacks on us, I've been really worried about my kingdom. I hope Ice agrees to..."

"I agree to what?" Ice asked as he approached, carrying an armful of apples and pears. The others where following shortly after him carrying more food and firewood.

"We were hoping we could take a small trip back to the Elven Kingdom." I answered, "You know, to check up on the condition of the kingdom."

Everyone stared at Ice hopefully as he contemplated before he smiled and nodded, "Alright. We don't have anything better to do until it starts..." He goes silent again, a clear sign that he was done talking about whatever it was he was thinking about. We all smiled and the mood drastically improved as we continued our camping. Setting out in the morning for the Elven Kingdom, we never imagined it could be our last night as a group.
