Mia stirred from her restless slumber feeling pain rush through her. 'Where am I?' she thought as her eyes fluttered open. It took a little time for her eyes to adjust to the darkness.
Soon she could make out the room she sat in. It was dark of course, with only one candle lit in the front of the room. It was hard stone floors with rock type walls. Inscriptions were engraved into the grayish gold stone. Pictures of war, gems, trinkets, jewelry and more clung to the walls. 'Oh lord no,' she thought as the door opened.
She pushed herself up against the wall in fear, but found chains kept her prisoner. She pulled at her right wrist hearing the chains cling together.
"It's no use, they're there to keep you down and that's what they'll do," Mia's head shot up, eyes narrowing.
"Neri," she almost spat. "I should have known you'd be back," Neri smirked. She walked a bit closer to Mia her bare feet patting the cold floor.
"Yes dear Princess, I'm back and here to take on a roll, the roll I should have had long ago," she said reaching Mia. She knelt down taking Mia's chin in her hand tilting her head up toward her. "Queen,"
"You may think Satu will make you Queen, he may even actually do it. But no matter what cloths or gems you hang on yourself you will never be fit for a Queen, and you know it, so stop lying to yourself Neri," Neri glared at her and shoved Mia's face away.
She stood up brushing off her knees. She walked around running her hands along the walls. She traced a inscription with her index finger ending in the middle of the chest of the picture of their past Queen.
"We'll see about that Princess, only time will tell," Neri said walking out leaving her alone once again.
Mia grunted as she tried to yank free from the chains. The cold metal against her skin sent chills down her spin. 'This has got to be worse then the Dynasty,' Mia thought hanging her head. Her head popped up smiling. 'The guys! Wait, how could I let them know where I am? What about Ayna? No I'd have to be telepathic to contact her. Well it can't hurt to try right?' she closed her eyes taking a deep breath.
~^~ Ayna! Help! ~^~
After a few tries she succumbed into the childish feeling. She sighed laughing a bit while shaking her head.
"Now you're only being silly Mia, get a grip, this place can't be getting to you already can it," Mia said to her self. She swirled her finger around in the dust making patterns to help pass the time.

~^~ Ayna! Help!~^~
Ayna gasped as Mia's voice filled her mind. The car swerved as she lost control of the wheel. 'What!? Mia!?' she thought as she stopped the car on the side of the road. She opened her door and stumbled out. She fell to the floor as aching pain cascaded through her whole body. 'Oh god, it is you Mia,' she thought be fore passing out.
Nevi appeared as soon as Ayna's head hit the floor. She smirked and walked over to her. She went to grab Ayna but something went flying across her hands. She recoiled in pain and looked up as someone dropped down out of no where.
"I wouldn't if I were you Nevi," the girl moved out of the shadows. A girl about 5'7" stepped out. She had long flowing hunter green hair that had a slight waviness to it. Her golden eyes dazzled with anger and hatred.
Nevi took a step back but ran into someone. She turned around to see another warrior, only this was a male one. He shocking purple eyes burned into Nevi as his black hair fell slightly in front of his face. He jumped back and spun his sword around and pointed it at her.
"Who are you?" Nevi spat as the two circled her.
"You should know Nevi," the girl hissed pulling out her sword. Nevi smirked and pulled out hers also.
"I should have known you two would be back, there's no getting rid of you, no matter how much I try to kill you," Nevi said evilly.
"Yes, and I wish you weren't the same," the man said charging at Nevi. She jumped up and out of the way. She landed and the girl swiped at her. Nevi screamed as the girls sword sliced into her legs. She cried out in pain and disappeared.
"Why does she have to be so damn hard to get rid of Aaron?" the girl growled putting her sword back in place.
"I don't know Bri, it's just Nevi for you," Aaron said wrapping an arm around her shoulders. (Sugar's note: Bri pronounced Bree)

Ryo sat on his bed looking down at his hands. He'd never felt so…..empty. He had lost Mia, his Mia. He wondered if the others felt this way. Was he the only one who truly missed her?
He looked up as a knock on the door ripped its way through his thoughts. He stood up and walked over to the door. He opened it to see Sai holding a cup of tea.
"Here ya go, I thought you might want some to calm you down," Ryo nodded and took the cup. He stepped out side and him and Sai walked down stairs and sat with the others. Their small talk stopped as soon as Ryo and Sai walked in.
"Oh hey Ryo," Kento said giving a nervous glance to Rowen.
"Hi," was all Ryo could manage out before sitting down in a single chair.
"Um Ryo, we have something we wanna tell ya buddy," Kento said giving a nervous glance to Sai, who only nodded. "Ok well see, we know how close you and Mia were and…" he trailed off as Ryo nodded his head.
"I know, you don't want me to fight," Kento and the other exchanged a glance then nodded.
"But we won't make you not fight," Sage added.
"He must fight," everyone looked up to see Bri and Aaron standing there.
"Who are you?" Rowen asked as everyone got into a fighting position.
"Not your enemies, that's for a fact," Aaron said holding Ayna.
"What did you do to her?!" Sage yelled.
"Nothing, it's what would have happened to her if we hadn't saved her!" Aaron barked.
"Aaron," Bri hissed.
"Sorry sister," Aaron said glaring at Sage.
"WildFire," Bri said as Ryo loosened up a bit, "we need you to fight, for Mia, for Ayna, for your world and ours."
"What will they do to Mia?" Ryo asked as the others glared at the visitors.
"She will be killed, as planned, as the prophecy for tells," Bri answered.
"Do the right thing WildFire," Aaron said before both of them disappeared.
