Hi guys. I really need to try and get my other fanfics done before I do any more new ones, but I've been wanting to do one like this for a while. Disney's Frozen is one of my favorites and I love Queen Elsa as Disney's very first Queen. I really think that this one will be good with a few changes to the story that you guys will notice. Hopefully this will be good. Anyway, enjoy!
Chapter 1
Beware of the Scorched Heart
Somewhere in the deep forests, there is a great Forest Fire that had been caused when a single spark from a campfire landed on the dry plant life. At a safe distance from the blaze as it quickly spread, one man followed by a few others begin to fight the fire with the large amounts of water that they have brought along from the many rivers and lakes they stopped at on their way to the burning forest.
Born of heat and summer air
And mountain lush combining
This burning force both foul and fair
Has a scorched heart worth mining
Doing what they must, these firefighters fight against the quickly spreading fire to save the forest.
So cut through the heart
Hot and fierce
Strike for love and strike for fear
See the beauty fine and sheer
Joining the men are two young boys, one boy with sharp brown, tidy hair and icy blue eyes in the age of nine and his friend had a dirty-blond hair a bit on the shaggy side with warm honey brown eyes. The two are both orphans, having to lost their families some time ago. And now they are the only ones they have left so these two are always sticking together as they become firefighters themselves.
Split the blaze apart
And break the scorched heart
Watch your step
Let it go
Staying beside the older men as they move forward with their own water supply, Seto and Joey follow the other firefighters at how they put out the blaze.
Beautiful
Powerfull
Dangerous
Hot
Fire has a magic
Can't be controlled
Stronger than one
Stronger than ten
Stronger than a hundred men!
Using so much water while there still being a great amount left, each firefighter fight of the sweat that had formed from being close to the burning flames. Trying what they can to copy exactly what they have done, Seto puts out a decent amount of fire and heat and Joey simply missed. Frustrated, Joey lets out a low growl until Seto pats him on the shoulder, cheering him up that he is even trying his hardest to be a great firefighter.
Born of heat
And summer air
And mountain lush combining
This burning force both foul and fair
The sun has set completely and a few firefighters light a few lanterns so they can keep fighting the remaining embers.
Has a scorched heart worth mining
Cut through the heart
Hot and fierce
Strike for love and strike for fear
After releasing a good amount of water to put out the inferno, Joey lost his feeting and was about to fall forward when Seto caught him and set him upright.
There's beauty and there's danger here
Split the blaze apart
Beware the scorched heart
Now that the inferno had died down completely, the firefighters pack up their equipment and start the trek back home to Domino. The fire now gone, the two best friends high five each other before rejoining the firefighters to return home.
In the Kingdom of Domino at the castle, there is a huge bedroom with two canopy beds facing away from the other, two wardrobes and a few toys on both sides of the room. A boy of eight, with gravity-defying hair with his tips a soft crimson, a black base, a couple of blond bangs is sleeping in the bed with white sheets and a soft red comforter and red pillows against the left wall while the bed with white sheets and soft purple comforter and pillows against the right wall is empty with the sheets carefully tossed to the side.
Peeking from one side of the bed the boy is sleeping on, the other boy, the same styled hair but with a soft purple tips and smaller blond bangs and wide amethyst eyes who is suppose to be sleeping in the other bed whispers to the sleeping boy, "Hey Yami." In an attempt to wake him, the smaller boy climbs onto the bed and then on top Yami as he tried to remain asleep. "Wake up!" the smaller boy says as he shakes his shoulders to get him to wake up.
"Yugi, go back to sleep." Yami mumbles, with a small grin forming on his face. Yugi and Yami are very close friends but are not related at all. The two are princes of different kingdoms with Yugi and his parents visiting. In fact when the two were first introduced at a younger age, their parents had decided that the two would become betrothed at an older age. Ever since they had met, the two boys have grown close.
"I can't sleep. I've been awake for a while and I was hoping we could play." Yugi says as he sits on top.
"Go play by yourself then. Just be quiet so our parents won't hear." Yami chuckles as he gently pushes the seven-year-old boy off so he landed on the floor.
Thinking for a while, an idea popped into his head, an idea that he knew would get Yami to play with him. Jumping back up, Yugi gently opens one eyelid, revealing a handsomely deep crimson color to get his friend's attention. "Do you want to make some fiery colors?" Then the grin grew on his face as Yami beamed at the idea.
With that, the two run out of their shared room to the ballroom. Once inside with the doors shut behind them, Yugi says with some excitement in his voice, "Do the magic!"
Nodding just once, Yami rolls his wrists around in mid air and Yugi is awestruck as small embers form between Yami's hands. "Ready?" Yami asks with a playful smile.
"Uh huh." Yugi replies with a nod and the smile returned.
And so with a single nod to his friend, Yami pushed his hands into the air and as he spread them apart, the embers that grew formed a mighty arc that had beautiful colors of red, white, yellow and blue. When he was born, Yami had the powers of fire. Since birth, Yami enjoyed having these powers and Yugi likes how colorful the flames could be since he can control each colored flame.
Watching the colored flames flutter like a feather in the wind, Yugi exclaims, "This is amazing!" And so from that moment on, the two boys played together as they did different things with Yami's fire magic, even creating a little fire lizard named Axel. The two had started to spend the majority of their play time with Axel, playing tag and hide and seek with the little critter being a little sneaky a couple times.
A new idea coming to mind, Yami used his magic to form a solid platform. Getting the idea, Yugi jumps onto the levitated platform with Axel leaping ahead each time Yami formed a new platform that is a little higher above the ground then the last one. "Hang on!"
With each leap after Axel, Yugi followed the little lizard while calling to Yami, "Catch me!"
"Gotcha!" When Axel and Yugi began to pick up the pace, Yami began to struggle to keep up with the two as each new platform went higher and higher.
When Yugi leaped off the last one, Yami yells as he threw a bit of fire at him and it hit him hard on the side of the head. With him collapsed on the floor, Yami rushes over to Yugi and carefully picks him up. "Yugi." Checking him to see where he got hit, Yami gently opens his right eyelid to see that the beautiful amethyst merge with the combined colors of the different flames, making it do a rainbow effect.
Terrified that he has hurt Yugi, Yami yells, "Mother! Father!" His powers responding to his emotions, causing many embers to spread throughout the room, destroying Axel and covering the doors until his father had forced the doors open as Yami says to the unconscious Yugi, tears in his eyes for what he had done. "It's okay Yugi. I got you."
To see the condition the room is in with both boys in the middle of the ember-covered ballroom, Valon yells as his queen Mai gasps at the sight of the boys, "Yami, what have you done? This is getting out of hand."
As his parents run towards them with Yugi's parents appearing in the doorway, Yami says as he holds Yugi close, feeling guilty of what he has done to his best friend, "It was an accident. I'm sorry, Yugi!"
Picking up the small boy, Mai says worriedly, "He's burning hot."
"I know where we need to go." Picking up Yami, the two hurried out of the room to see Yugi's parents gaze upon their son in fear. "What happened to him?" his father asked as Yugi's mother became more worried for her son.
"There's no time to explain, James. Come with us and I'll explain on the way."
Quickly, the four parents hurried to the stables to retrieve their horses so they could go to where Yugi could get the help he needs.
