CHAPTER 8: The Troubled Heart

At the zenva residence, Donavon and kako s friends were all together sitting on the beautiful red couch in the living room.

Okay I have a annoncement to make we have a new member to the family. I want all of you to be nice to has been through a lot she is kako s little buddy. Donavon spoke cheerfully.

Everyone was excited and could not wait to see the new member. Issac especially wanted to see it because it was kako s friend. As they waited, Chiiva came in and smiled brightly.

Here she comes the beautiful little thing. Chiiva spoke happily

Coming in from the door way was a little girl with beautiful blue hair and the cutest shade of purple eyes. She walked towards Donavon and smiled as she saw new people that she got to meet today. Her little blue and black dress showed her smile even more brightly. She then spoke.

Hello, I am fifi. Princess Kako took me in cause of the trouble I had. So I am happy to be here to meet new friends. fifi spoke with the cutest voice.

The girls all squealed as the boys smiled. Ian walked up to the little girl and put his hands out as if he was going to hug her.

Hi fifi, I am Ian. I live here at the dojo and I help Donavon teach the kids to do karate and stuff. Hope to become good friends okay. he spoke as he gave her a hug.

Next, the girls walked up to her and played with her beautiful hair. Then the boys came in besides them.

Hi fifi I m Serena and next to me is irna. We are kako s best friends.

Hi fifi, I am kako s bf Issac and this is my brother van. Hope to be good friends.

Fifi got up and walked away from Issac. Everyone laughed then she spoke.

You can t be her bf because sir xion is. He was the one who took me with him and kako. I don t believe that you are her bf. fifi said with anger.

Issac just brushed it off and walked out trying to call up kako. However, she did not answer. Van walks in and looks at Issac then walks out back to Donavon. Meanwhile kako and the gang was walking towards the next town they only needed two more red and silver crystals were still left to find. Kako was making everyone s lives like hell. Asliana then pulled kako aside while the rest was still looked mad

Okay princess, what is the matter. You have been mean all day. You can tell me what is wrong you know. I don t like to see you like this. Asliana spoke

Well. I love my best friend at home but recently I have been feeling for xion and I do not know what to do. Xion and I just met but something tells me that he and I are destined to be together. My mom was a princess doing the same as what I am doing now. In addition, my father was the wind knight that served her. Therefore, I think it runs in in my blood. It is hurting me because I love them both. Kako spoke sadly.

Asliana was in shock but then spoke.

Well I know xion likes you but he also doesn t want you to know because it would ruin your relationship with Issac. Therefore, he is backing off. He has asked Kilana out on a date. Therefore, when we are resting in the next town those two will be on a date. Listen princess you have to decide now. Before it is too late. It is either Issac or xion. If you choose Issac, you do not have to worry for xion because he will have Kilana. However, if you choose xion Issac will be alone and hurt. Just do what your heart tells you. I am with you all the way okay. Asliana smiled as she walked back to the group.

Kako puts her head down and cries. She then quickly wipes them away and goes where the group is. They were almost to marshal village. Kako ran up ahead to suddenly bump into a hurt young lady. The woman had tears and fear in her eyes. Kako walked up to her. She had beautiful blonde hair and b eautiful emerald green eyes like xion s eyes. The group came up behind her.

Are you alight that wound looks like it hurts? questioned kako.

The woman looked and frowned.

Yes miss it does. A big monster that came out of the water is attacking my village. I have never seen a real life one until today. Please help me go back and help us save our village we need more people. the young woman spoke.

Kako and the gang picked up the woman and headed to the village. As they got close, they could hear all the people screaming. Suddenly they see a guy with fire red hair. He was attacking the monster with spears and stuff. Kako questioned the woman.

Who is that miss. What is he doing? He is crazy to attack that thing alone. kako spoke.

The man heard her and walked towards her. He had the darkest red eyes and hair. It looked like he was on fire.

Why it is so kind of you to worry when you don t know me. You are very beautiful by the way. the man spoke.

Kako blushes as the others just walks up to him and tells him to move away. Kako and the others just transforms and they start to head to the monster until kako saw the red crystal light up. She quickly looked at the guy. As it goes to him. The guy had fire surround him as he transforms bursting out like a maniac.

Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha I am back people. The fire knight is re-born be prepared to die you fowl beast. the man spoke crazily.

Kako and the others smiled as they all attacked the monster. The monster popped out of the lake and attacked them. Everyone dodged it but kako. The tail of the monster dragged her down into the water everyone screamed but the guy. He started throwing fireballs at the monster making it grip kako tighter. Xion smacked the guy.

What the hell is wrong with you? That is our princess down there are you trying to kill her? xion spoke angrily

The man smiled as the monster lifted its tail up and threw kako into the guys arms.

Now Mr. serious you can kill It. the man said while un-transforming and carrying kako to his house.

Everyone defeated the monster and went into the man s house. They saw kako lying in the bed asleep. They all sighed happily until they saw the man again.

Who are you? Xion questioned.

The man smiled and spoke.

I am kanjii, from the fire clan. The last hope for that clan. I also love this princess. kanjii spoke

Xion and the others got mad at his way of talking but answer politely.

I am sir xion I am the last from the wind clan. Xion spoke in a rude manner.

I am hou and next to me is jou, we are from the earth clan and we are the last. Nice to meet you sir kanjii,

We are Kilana and Asliana, I am Asliana from the sun clan and Kilana from the night clan. Nice to meet you.

The man smiled as he waved them his hand and headed towards kako and kissed her. As he kisses her, she awakes and thinks it Is Issac.

Issac ? kako spoke sleepish.

Everyone laughed as kanjii turned red. Xion smiled as she looked at him. Then he and Kilana left the room. Then is snapped into kako s brain that the two were going on a date and she still did not decide whom she wanted. Therefore, she got up to go call Issac. Kanjii jumped into kako s lap.

Hi sexy princess kako, I am kanjii from the fire clan. It is nice to meet you. Can I be your lover? kanjii spoke in such a hurry.

Kako looked at him and replied coldly.

Hello sir kanjii. I am princess kako. In addition, you may only call me princess kako. I don t like your tone with me and no you may not I have two I love. kako spoke.

Everyone watched as she stormed out with her cell phone dialing Isaac s number. The phone rang three times until someone picked it up.

Hello? A familiar voice spoke.

Hi is issac there? It is me kako. kako spoke worried.

Kako! Hi, it I van. Okay hold on I will give it to issac. van cheerfully said.

As van was handing Issac the phone kako s heart skipped a beat. She was scared to ask him a question but she had to decide whom she loves the most. She though if she asked a question and the one with the best answer she will choose.

Hello kako how are you? I miss you so much and I met your little friend fifi. She told me that you and xion are boyfriend and girlfriend and it hurt me so much. Issac spoke

Hey issac I miss you too. Oh, she did what a silly girl. I am thinking when this is all over I will make her my daughter. Anyway, I have called to ask you a serious question. It needs to be answered truthfully okay? If I was injured and had only an hour to live what would you do? Kako spoke

Aw that is cute and uh what would I do? I um would take you to a hospital and see if they would help if not I would spend my last hour with you making you feel happy and giving you all my love that I have. Then I would break every hospital for not helping you when you needed it. Kako why are you asking this? Are you all right? You are not dying are you? Issac spoke worriedly

No I am fine that is all Issac thank you. That is all I needed to know. I have to get some sleep now. kako said as she hung up the phone.

Kako got dressed and ran out to find xion and Kilana to ask xion her question before the day was over. By the end of the day, Kilana and xion will become boyfriend and girlfriend so she was in a hurry to find them. Kako ran past all the stores until she saw xion looking so hot in a tuxedo sitting at the table with Kilana. Kilana wore a beautiful black dress that made her look like a model. Kako walks in the restaurant dressed in her beautiful blue dress. She caught a lot of attention. As she got to xion and Kilana s table. She tapped xion s shoulder.

Hey Kilana, xion. Xion I need to talk to you real quick please. kako spoke in pants.

Yeah sure. Kilana I will be right back. xion spoke as he followed kako.

Xion I have a serious question to ask you. Please answer truthfully. If I was injured very bad and only had an hour to live what would you do? Kako spoke

Xion looked at kako in a worried manner and spoke.

Kako, if you only had an hour to live I would offer my life and trade it with yours so you may live. I would die in your place even though I would die. I want you to live. I love you to much to watch you die. Why the question kako you are scaring me. Is it because I am dating Kilana that you are going to do something crazy. Xion spoke worried.

No xion I am alright it is just a question I needed to know. I am asking that is all. Go back and have your fun I will see you when you get home. she smiles as she runs by and cries

Xion sees that she is crying but walks back to Kilana. As kako got home. Asliana runs to the door and pulls her to her room.

So did you choose? What did Issac and xion say? questioned Asliana.

Kako cries as she hears both of there names.

Issac said he would take me to hospitals if they can t help he would stay by my side till I died. Then he would give me everything I wanted then after I die he would wreck havoc on the hospitals. Xion on the other hand said he would give his own life for mine so I would not die. It is hard but xion has the best answer but Kilana looked happy I do not want to hurt her you know. This is hard for me. kako cries

As kako was, crying Asliana covered her mouth with her hand as xion came behind kako and held her tight. Kako jumped and cried more but did not move.

Kako, don t pressure yourself. I love you. I do. Nevertheless, if it is killing you to choose I will stay with Kilana. Therefore, you and Issac can be together. I hate to see you like this. xion said with a warm tone.

Kako pushes xion away and as she runs out of the room.

You think I would be happy like that. kako cries.

Kako runs out of the house as xion tries to run after her. Everyone sat there with a blank look and took kako s cell calling her grandfather to get Issac and bring him to kanji s house. Donavon arrived with Issac and van in tow and the group talked not mentioning kako and xion. Asliana looked at Issac and suddenly fell in love with him. He was so hot to her. Kilana looks at van and smiles as she and him talk. As the group was talking xion was chasing kako down the streets until kako got to the lake where the monster was that they fought. She walked into the water and kept going xion was screaming as he transformed and blew kako away from the water he lifted her into the sky and he caught her.

Kako, look at Me. xion spoke

Kako looks at him and he deeply kissed her. Kako s body shook and filled with happiness. She kissed him back and smiles as he pulled away. He and her went back down and they walked home. Kako forgot why she was just crying and kept remembering xion s kiss her first kiss. As they reached, the house xion hears Isaac s voice and gets mad. He runs in front of kako and made her wait as he stormed in and went into the other room where everyone was kako stood outside and watched.

What the hell is wrong with you? You know kako is suffering and you sit here and flirt with Asliana. Asliana you know kako and Issac loved each other why would you do that? In addition, Issac I thought you loved kako dearly but you go and do this. God I hate you. xion spoke in anger.

Kako saw and heard so she runs inside and looks at Issac crying.

I knew you never truly liked me Issac. And Asliana no wonder you were pushing me to date xion. kako spoke.

Hey slut. I know you and xion are together I knew it ever since the school. Do not play dumb with me. Therefore, I thought hell to it. So stop your crying. Issac said to kako.

Van got up and hit Issac.

Kako. I wanted to tell you that he was only dating you and being nice to you because you were the popular girl and he thought if I date her. I will be popular and he did. Now that you gone away and became a princess he started to say mean things. It is as if he stopped truly loving you. I am sorry kako. He and Asliana had been dating secretly for an awhile now. She visited our town a long time ago and her and Issac been dating until one day she left and never returned. That s when you came along and he went for you. van spoke sadly

Asliana cried and Issac laughed. As xion was starting to get pissed, kako stood there and transformed.

Issac leave with grandfather and van now. I do not ever want to see you ever. Next time I see you I will kill you. Asliana. I do not want to see your face either. Therefore, do me a favor and take a break go with him. I will call you when we get to Queen Liona s lair. Or when we need you. kako spoke coldly

Issac laughed more but Asliana, grandfather and van were getting ready to leave. Kako shot a crystal arrow into his shoulder.

Out I said. The next one will kill you. kako spoke.

Issac got up, ran towards Donavon and the others, and left. After the group left kako fell to the floor crying.

How am I so blind to not realize he never really liked me. I knew something was wrong when he said to stay with them. Asliana I kind of knew that she liked Issac because she would always talk about him. However, to find out now. After I have been struggling between xion and him. I want to set out to the next town tomorrow without Asliana. kako spoke as she went into her room.

Xion went to follow but Kilana stopped him.

Xion we all have to talk to you. Kilana spoke.

Hou, jou, kanjii and Kilana sat there and talked to xion.

Issac really is in love with kako, but we knew she would pick you. Even Issac knew it. Hou said

It was hard to get Asliana to do this but she did and now I feel bad. jou said sadly

We also had van play into it. I feel bad that kid is very sweet and we made him hurt the one he used to love. I don t care about issac he was a punk towards Me. spoke kanjii

We asked Asliana and Issac to love each other and for Issac to pretend he never loved her. It was hard to make him stop crying but Asliana helped him. Now Asliana is upset for something we planned. She got the punishment. I hate myself for doing this. But Asliana said it was for the best. Kilana spoke crying.

Xion looked at them in sadness and walked away to kako. Kako was in the room crying. Xion knocked on the door and walked in.

Kako? xion called out

Kako got up and looked at xion. Then she ran into his arms and cried more. Xion held her and sat her down to tell her the bad news.

Alright kako. I have something to tell you that I just was told. Issac was just lying for what he said in there. It was a plan to make him stop loving you. Kilana and the others are victims too. Asliana said she knew you would pick me so she had Issac say those things to make it easier for you to be with me without any regrets. Everyone feels bad now. Moreover, I bet you do too. I am so sorry kako. xion spoke

They did what! I hate them I hate them. They should not be meddling in my affairs. I could have chosen Issac and not you no one knows. Ugh. I want to be alone xion. Please leave. Goodnight. kako spoke as she lay down.

Xion left and went by the was so furious at them that she decided to leave alone. Kako grabbed her and the silver crystal, jumped out the window, and was walking to the next town. Xion went into the room where everyone was.

Hey everyone she is pissed at you. She went to sleep now so it is best we get some rest and tomorrow you guys apologize. xion spoke as he went into a room and went to sleep.

Everyone went to sleep without knowing kako was missing. Kako was on the outskirts of the next town. She could see the snowy mountains. She headed down the path and transformed into her princess form and headed in. the town was empty looked as if everyone was inside. There was snow everywhere and chimneys letting out gray smoke. You can smell the burning wood and food as she walked down the street. She found an inn and checked in.

Um hello is anyone here? Kako yelled out

A beautiful young woman came out.

Oh hi I haven t seen you around are you a traveler? the woman asked.

Kako nodded. The woman smiles.

What is your name I ll give you a room. It will be $124.00. the woman replied.

I am princess kako zenva. kako says happily.

The woman bows and gives kako a royal suite. It was huge it had three bathrooms and bedrooms .the woman leaves but then comes back.

By the way princess I am landlady mana. I live in the office so if you need anything do not hesitate to ask me. Have a nice night princess. mana spoke as she walks out.

Kako walks to the bed and passes out. Meanwhile back in woodline queen liona calls forth for another minion to attack the princess.

Who here is willing to risk their lives to kill the princess? Queen Liona spoke loudly.

Two beautiful looking girls and a boy walked up. One had red hair and one had pink. The boy had beautiful blonde hair with red eyes. The girl s eyes had the most beautiful color orange shade to it. In addition, they had a blue tattoo on their left eyes.

Hello queen liona, we are the elemental siblings. I am the eldest. I am giri. The other girl next to me is kira and the boy is avane. We will hunt the princess down. I know where she is. We will return with her. giri spoke.

Queen liona smiled at the elemental siblings were fully prepared and already on the hunt. She had a good feeling about them. Back at kanjii s house everyone gets up and is ready to eat.

Morning everyone xion screamed up the hall as he puts plates of food onto the table waiting for everyone to come down.

Everyone but kako ran down the steps and into the kitchen to feast on morning food. They looked around and did not see kako.

Hey where is kako? Spoke Kilana.

Xion pulled off his apron and went upstairs knocking on kako s door. It was locked so he thought that she was sleeping. Therefore, he returned downstairs and told everyone. Three hours go by and still no kako. Therefore, xion went back up and broke down the door. As the door hit s the floor, he sees an empty bed and a note. He goes and picks it up. He then runs down stairs screaming for everyone. They all gathered into the kitchen and listened to xion.

I found a note from kako in her room. It states dear servants do not come looking for me. I have left and will continue on my own. To the ones that interfered with my love affairs I am very mad. In addition, to xion and whoever did not I am sorry. If you are reading this, I may be already gone. Therefore, I will miss you all. Goodbye, xion lets out a tear as so does everyone. They all got ready and left on a journey to find the princess.
