Almost an hour passed before the man was speaking and when Amanda observed that the young man nodded, she imitated his action causing a laugh from the older man who only said:
-Hehe, Adulescentem fire nuptam possis oscula, (young fire, can kiss the bride) .- she spoke with a big smile.
That boy only took Amanda's right hand and with her free hand he lifted the veil that covered her face, causing her eyes to light up.
- Y-you ..... - was the only thing the young brunette could say.
The two of them only looked into each other's eyes trying to understand that situation, but that man only cleared his throat to break the somewhat tense atmosphere that the young people had created.
Amanda wasn't sure about kissing him, while the blonde only approached her little by little. When remaining a few centimeters close to the chestnut's face, the opposite only kissed her cheek and gave her a smile and then turned and looked at those present.
- We will take care of his well-being." He turned his gaze to Amanda.- And to fight against those who dare to attack.- He took the girl's hand.- Our people.
Those words caused a slight smile on the part of Amanda who felt more secure being next to her dear friend, so without hesitation, she decided to dedicate a few words to those present in order to complement what was said by the blonde before.
- Ethan and I, we will make the change ... and the territories will be unified as a single nation from now on.- she turned her gaze towards the young man.- after years of that conflict .. we returned to unite our people.- still taking The boy's hand looked at the spectators to continue with his little speech without caring that the boy who hurt her was present.- Soon Earth and Water will come and the four of us will bring a world without differences or wars, one in which peace reigns without fear of evil.
Those present rose from their seats and began to applaud, between shouts and applause the two young people began to walk towards the steps that were in front of the altar.
Each step they took was full of security and determination, of which they were not afraid to fear what would happen ahead, they were determined to do whatever it took to overthrow that darkness that injected the heart of their father's creations and they did not want to allow it for the simple fact that those humans were like their younger brothers and had to protect them at any cost. Upon reaching the top, the two guardians of the young only handed them some crystal glasses full of wine, causing happiness to the two older ones, they only smiled at their proteges and one of them spoke.
- Fire and Air, united again at last!.- He Sey yelled towards the crowd, keeping his smile from him.
Again the applause was present and the young people drank the contents of the glasses, ending the union ceremony.
A big smile was drawn on both of them when they saw their empty glasses and without hesitation they held hands to look at Marie who was going to give an announcement to those present.
- The celebration is not over yet, because we must celebrate the peace treaty between the elements. - Marine spoke this time.
Those present jumped up again and shouted with joy and, at the direction of the guardians, they only followed a path of torches that adorned that place until they reached a clearing where there was a great banquet, tables and decorations. While the young people were talking about what was happening and the odd trivial thing.
They believed that the tranquility would last in those beautiful moments but something was wrong since in the distance they began to hear screams followed by a small explosion. Amanda and Ethan without thinking twice, together with their guardians, went down from the temple to go to where the guests were, finding something that left them stunned.
Marine and Sey ran to stop two subjects who were tormenting those present, but these two were tied with a kind of black whip, which left them immobile.
The two guardians tried to free themselves but it was impossible since every time they moved that object compressed them more, worrying the young people who ran to help them.
Between screams and cries that reflected despair, a laugh from a female was heard in the surroundings alerting the elements, then that laughter was stopped but a few minutes later a voice was heard that made the elders tremble who recognized that damn tone .
- So small and defenseless ... it makes me want to devour them all ...
The guards only looked at their proteges and with great concern asked them to leave them and help the guests. The slightly dubious young people ran towards the crowd to signal them to go back the way they had come and take shelter from that woman who had not yet been seen.
Little by little they began to leave but with a jump he came out of his hiding place and blocked the exit, that woman only took a man hostage. The poor man began to scream in fear but the opposite took him by the neck to try to silence him by force.
Ethan and Amanda were watching the scene, they couldn't stay with their arms crossed, least of all the blonde since he seemed worried about that man.
-Hey !, hey damn witch, let go of my father! .- he yelled annoyed.
That woman only smiled and then threw Ethan's father to the ground, causing the fall to start screaming and writhing in pain.
Amanda felt very frustrated and afraid at what the woman was capable of doing to the poor and innocent of those present, and even more when she saw the father of her now "husband" on the ground while the young man tried to help him to get up.
She was between a rock and a hard place, the doubt of going to attack her gnawed at her, but seeing that the last to be exposed to danger were her friends and family, the feeling increased and even more when she saw that they were about to attack her friends. Amanda without hesitation ran and pushed the woman away, eliciting a look of annoyance from that of her.
-I'm famine.- She clenched her fists. "I hope you're glad you interrupted my dinner ...
- You are not going to dinner to anyone, did you hear me? .- He frowned.
-So pathetic ... to feel sorry for beings inferior to you.- she smiled maliciously.- they will take advantage of you from now on and kill you ...
- It is not true.-The brunette denied.- They are good but the darkness is stronger than them.
Ethan took advantage of the fact that Amanda was distracting that woman to help their loved ones out of the place that was now almost covered in flames.
The chestnut was very upset since Famine was causing her, so the anger that accumulated in her took a small knife that she had hidden under her bouquet by orders of her guardian and with that object in hand, she just started walking towards her opponent.
- This will be your last damn dinner ...
- Do you think so?.- She answered maliciously. - look at you, so stupid, naive and weak. You shouldn't be an item.
Those words made him explode in anger and she ran without thinking towards Famine who only began to dodge every attack from her, until she stumbled and Amamanda took advantage of her to make a small cut on her arm. That action annoyed the woman and only a blow to her stomach suffocated her element, making her fall.
With difficulty he got up and ran towards the woman to hurt her but she was faster and with a kick he threw her in front of the guards who were still tied to the ground, when they saw the weak element they were filled with frustration and began to struggle to free himself so he can help her.
- Death to the Elemental of Air !! .- Famine yelled.
Her companions just laughed out loud and took Amanda from her arms and then took her in front of Famine who began to give her blows.
Her blows were strong so she quickly made her spit blood, that scene caused happiness to the rider so she asked her guards to free her from her while she took the brunette's hair and smiled .
-The horsemen of the Apocalypse will never be able to finish us off ... how stupid they are to believe that only two elementals can fight us.- she smiled.
Spitting blood.- Anything can be done ... hope is the last to be lost ... so shut up before opening that damn mouth. We are not as strong as you but our families and friends will motivate us to fight ...
-I don't give a damn what you think you damn scum of creation.- she slapped him.- You are a failure, and you must die for us to give a balance to this world. Come on girl, accept that you cannot bring balance, because sooner or later ... the humans are going to kill you because they will desire the power that has not yet awakened.
The woman only separated from the chestnut and then asked one of her warriors for a sword, who quickly gave the woman her weapon and with a big smile on her face, she spoke.
- Say goodbye to this garbage that you call the world ... since it will be better when you disappear and let us create a new one.
With the sword in hand, he only observed Amanda, who began to fear for his life, but at the same time he felt happy to know that Ethan and the others had escaped unharmed, well except his guardians who were still observing the scene, but within she had that positive thought that they would be freed at the end of her life, so she just closed her eyes to wait to feel the cold metal pierce her chest.
