As the girl in a silky pinkish kimono with a long blue shawl, flicked the lights on with a little hand wave in the air, everyone jumped out and shouted, "SURPRISE!" She was dumbfounded, did not know what to say or do, but just gave them a questioned look. The guy with a long white hair with a pure white kimono asked teasingly, "Don't tell me you have forgotten Princess, that today is your birthday."
"Oh…" Princess muttered and thought, "I did not recognized what today was, and I was busy preventing a war with the underworld. With the attack from the underworld and with her mother, Queen Israeli, being sick, the princess was under immense stress. She was the only leader left that could lead the chaos happening in the palace. However, she thought of giving up, but she knows better not to, when there be a peace to keep.
The guy with a long white hair with a pure white kimono walked up to her to give her a warm and loving hug as if he sense that something wrong. He whispered, "Something wrong at the palace?" She shook her head, telling him there is nothing wrong. She looks into his warm cozy eyes made her remember everything happen in the palace is just an illusion. She was happy seeing him again. She slowly tiptoed up to him, gave him a sweet, longing kiss on the lip.
Ah-hem the guy with yellow hair wearing a blue, short sleeves outfit and blue shorts with a yellow belt's cloth tied around his waist, coughed to get their attention. "Let me remind you, we are still here. If you want to be mushy, I advise you wait till the party ends." He giggled. Upon hearing that, the couple quickly broke apart, which made everyone giggles. The princess blush as she let go of her love. "Now that is settling, Princess Aquasalina, Happy Birthday." He made a formal bow. Everyone followed suit and greeted the princess.
"Oh guys, thanks!" She gave a big smile. This party was just the thing that Princess was longing for to comfort her. She knows that her friends will be with her each step away. She quickly gave a stern look, "didn't I tell you to stop calling me princess outside the palace." Aquasalina giggled after seeing their blank face. She glanced around, and said, "Oh, you even brought me presents." She excitedly walked to the table full of presents. She quickly gave everyone a quick squeeze hug.
Minutes later, the official party of Princess Aquasalina started. Princess Aquasalina was going from plates to plates trying out all the food that her best friend, Greenery made. Greenery was wearing a green kimono with brown shawl wrapped around her waist instead of over her shoulders. "Greenery!" Aquasalina excitedly yelled her name, motioning her to come over. "How do you make this food, it's so good." Everyone was now staring at her and smiling with agreement that Princess Aquasalina mood had gone back to normal. She was in a depress mood, the last time they saw her, even though she keep up her usual smile. The princess happily hops over to Fiery, another close friend of her, she was wearing red kimono, and a black shawl tied around her waist. She was sitting on the couch alone, watching Thunder and Dark playing a magic chess.
Thunder and Dark was both wearing black kimono with a blue belt tied on Thunder's waist and a yellow belt on Dark's waist. "What's wrong? You don't look happy." She smiled. Fiery is the only person that Princess Aquasalina met in her life was always serious. Even her father in the Knight Official look likes that. She guesses that this seriousness runs in the family.
"Princess Aquasalina, please don't get me wrong or don't blame my father either." She pause and look at Aquasalina facial reaction. It was not a happy one, Aquasalina immediately frown at her. "Aren't we having too much fun, instead of planning to stop the war?" She pauses again. "Yes, I know the palace is keeping it silent, but…"
Princess Aquasalina quickly cut her off, "There is nothing to concerned about, let the Palace Official do their thing." She stood up and said sternly. "I have you know, the information you receive from your father is highly confidential. Your father should know the consequences of leaking it out, even to their family. I must warned you, never mention it to anyone until everything is assure." By now, everyone stopped at what they are doing and looked at the commotion.
"I am sorry Princess, but…" Fiery tries to defend his father, since she know she said something she should not be, but she was worried about her father.
The guy with white long hair and white kimono walked near the Princess and put his hand over her shoulder to calm her down and asked, "Calm down, Aquasalina, what's wrong?" He frowns at the sight of the two girls fighting.
"There is nothing to concern about, White." She snapped. "I have enough pressure from the Knights, now you come here telling all this. I have you know Fiery, if anything leek out, I will have your father gets the blame first." She pushed White's hand away, briskly walked away toward the door, ignoring the calls from her friends and her love. However, once she opens the door, her two angels rushing toward her.
"Princess, princess…" the two little doll looking angels came to a halt when they saw their princess. "Something…something…" One of the little angels said while pausing for breath.
"Talk in the Palace." Princess Aquasalina said in flat tone. With that, she waved her hand up and vanished with her angels.
Fiery was down on the floor quietly weeping and worried for her father safety. Her father mentioned the only way to save the world; the Guardians of the World must be awakened. According to her father, both the Queen and Princess will not allow them to be wakening until it is necessary. Thunder and Dark who was the closest to Fiery was trying to comfort her. "She didn't mean it. Something must have happened in the palace and in order to keep the citizens from worrying, she have to keep it a secret." Dark remarked.
"Yeah, the princess wouldn't keep it a secret unless it's something that she can't handle by herself." Thunder added while patting her back and giving her a warm smile.
White squat down and added, "You got to give her some slack, her mother is unable to attend the royal court. Everything has dumped to her in one night." Fiery looked up at White and nodded and wiping her tears giving them an assuring smile.
In the palace, Princess Aquasalina was sitting on the throne listening to the reports that her knight is presenting. One of her high advisor mentioned, "Princess Aquasalina, we need to bring back the Guardians. There is no way we could beat them with our knights."
"Princess, our knights are not train for battles like this kind that do with magic." One of Knight captains added. "We need the guardians back." The palace court started with jumble with wanting the princess to release the Guardians power. For years Princess's power and the Queen's power combined was able to keep the peace with the underworld. However, once they know that the Queen was sick, the underworld starts to rose from power.
Princess Aquasalina was getting a headache listening them telling her to release the Guardians. She rose holding her magic staff, "SILENCES!" The court still kept talking among themselves about the Guardians. The princess has no choice but to shoot a lightening bolt in the middle of palace to silence the Advisor and the Knights. Everyone looked at her surprise, that the princess attack him or her. "I know we don't withstand the attack from the underworld without the helps of the Guardians. Nevertheless, I assure you, even with the help of the Guardians might not defeat them, without the combine power of my mother, Queen Israeli and I. They could die helping us to defend the world." She paused and looked around to see their reaction. The knights and advisor have a confuse look at them. She continued explaining, "The Guardians have died once, and now is resurrect again in this lifetime. My mother and I have prevented them from fighting again using our power. However, since my mother is weak now, and with my power alone won't hold it any long." She paused waiting for any comments added, but there were none.
She continued explaining, "I have no choice but to asked them for help. But let me asked you, if the guardians were your children, would you still let them served the world?" She asked with a motionless stern look at the selfish old men.
The men looked at each other, and one of them step out said, "If it could defend the world from invader, I am welcome my child to enter the war." He looked at her and everyone for support. After couple of mumbles, the crowd rose cheering and agreeing with the first man.
Princess Aquasalina gave a small smile, "Well, then lets get them and immediately do the preparation, no minutes to be wasted." She said to the crowd. "I will need two days to train them and awaken their powers. Lily, Sei." She called, "Go get Fiery, White, Light, Thunder, Dark and Greenery to my magic room." She made a quick glance at the crowds for the parents of this kids. She shook her head at them, upon seeing their reactions.
"Um…" One of the parents of the kids she just called stumbled, "Princess…why do you need these kids."
"Well, you said, you want to get the Guardian out and it was court decision, so I call them." Princess said with a little annoyance. "I cannot go back my word, its royal words." She thought, "Now, you want to stop me from calling them?" She got up and said, "DISMISS" Everyone bowed to her. She walked out the court while letting the court advisor and the knights talk among themselves. She thought, "there are many things to prepare; this may even weaken my power."
