Here's the next chapter sorry for the delay, but life happens. I'm not some cave troll with no friends so sometimes I can't write for a bit due to social life

Every few months, sometimes only twice per year, the rulers, princes and princesses of the mobs, held meetings, councils, to discuss the state of the world, to settle, solve, problems between their respective subjects and to trade information on certain situations, threats that may put the peace, that had been achieved after the war, in peril. As such if a threat was big enough, posed true danger, they would act to remove it, to stop it, be it a natural disaster, a powerful monster, mob, or something else entirely, the rulers would plan, form a strategy, on how to stop it, the meetings lasting until they all agreed on how the threat would be dealt with.

Rarely was there, a non ruler participating, Aether envoy excluded as it only served as a mediator, not because it was forbidden, far from it, it was only due to a password being needed and the location changing every meeting, that the rulers where usually the only ones to show, the fact that being in a room with most of the strongest beings in the world would be reason enough for not wanting to be present, was ignored.

Andr PoV

The meeting would start the next morning, once everyone had woken up, Blaze would probably be one of the subjects of the meeting. A being that rivalled them in power, that was arguably stronger than almost all of them, without counting the war experience he had, appeared suddenly, was freed from Notch knows how many years of imprisonment, of course they would discuss him. And Blaze would be present while they talked about him so the others wouldn't be able to just label him a threat and attack him, hunt him down, or have him captured and forced to either work for them or be executed. She had no doubt he would have gotten away from any attempt, no doubt the heterochromatic man could fight anyone of them and win, probably easily too, and from what he had told her, her friends might not have gotten the benefit of mercy.

The day had been nice, she had introduced Blaze to everyone, they all had reacted differently, those that had been at the arena when he had arrived, fallen from the sky really, Cupa, Sage, Minerva, Yaebi and Skull, had simply greeted him, She had told Skull he was the one who had made the her bow and she could the only thing stopping the skeleton prince from questioning Blaze about it was that all the other rulers where present.

The others had varying reactions. The spider siblings, Venom and Silky had looked up at him, Silky blushing and Venom, mouth agape, had shouted how awesome Blaze's sword and armour were. Gaius had only looked Blaze up and down, then nodded extending a hand that Blaze shook and went to sit and wait for something, probably the questions that would come after introductions had been over. Fiora had the best response, all the princes of blazes did was stare at him, then got angry after someone made jokes about her being Blaze's princess.

That had irritated her, Blaze barely knew Fiora, from what she had seen he had been ignoring her almost completely. Then Blaze had said something that had her blushing, "If anyone here is my princess, Andr is". She knew he didn't mean it in a romantic way, still it had her blushing, the others had noticed and teased her about it for a bit, then someone had asked for proof that he came from the time of the war, then it had gone to Blaze asking about what he could remember, the elements, the tricks he had taught her on how to craft things faster. Apparently she was the only one who could tell just how old, ancient, his power felt, she even brought it up, Blaze had raised a brow at her, all the others said is that while they could feel how much power he had, even the worst at sensing, Yaebi, had said he could feel it, none of them could actually say anything more about it.

Then the rest of the day had been them all talking about what Blaze could remember, what he had remembered, about every mob, telling them about things that had been common place in the war, She had already heard about what endermen could do so she had mostly been watching the others, to see the reactions they had. Then at the end of the day they all went to their assigned rooms to sleep.

Then came the morning, the sun wasn't even up yet, she had gone to the lounge to wait for the others to wake up, Blaze had been there already, so she told him about what would probably be talked of during the meeting. Apparently she hadn't really needed to because the only thing that had really surprised him is that they might try to have him work for them, she hadn't had much more time because as soon as the sun had started to rise, the others had started showing up. Before noon they were all in the meeting room, all of them sitting around a table, Blaze opting to stand, leaning on a wall, he seemed different, probably that this was serious, then it started.

Blaze PoV

The meeting had started, the Aether envoy began, listing the points they would go over during the meeting, the only ones grabbing his interest being, the rogue group and himself, no narcissism there, he was just curious what would be said, from what Andr had told him, he shouldn't have much to worry about being killed, that was good, though if they did try anything he would be able to get away, he wouldn't go down without a fight, and from what he knew about them, using the elements for battle was something most of them did not do, something about the elders not wanting to teach the younger ones how to use them, at least that's what Andr had said.

Still it hadn't done them any good, from what he could gather when they had started talking about the rogue group, apparently it wasn't only one rogue, but a group of them, and those that had managed to run away, had said some of the rogues used the elements to kill and destroy. They even knew where the rogues had set up camp, either the rulers had great information gathering skills or the rogues, that group needed a name, knew nothing about hiding a camp.

Then, after what had seemed like hours, it had been, they reached the topic of what they would do with him, he wasn't a ruler, had no mob answering to him, but had enough power to rival the strongest being known, but he wasn't from their time, he had proved it, proved it with what he knew, what he had told them the day prior, and before they asked him to do work for them, before they made any plans to use him. He old them one thing he had told to no one but Andr, he wouldn't fight unless it was to protect, even if his heart body and soul raged for blood, even if his whole being was ready to battle, he would do nothing, not if he had nothing to protect. He told them, he could declare the whole world his enemy, but he couldn't fight if he wasn't protecting.

And saying that, telling them what drove him, essentially baring his psyche, what drove him to be himself. He had closed off most of what they had in mind for him, he could see it on their faces, the disappointment, how everyone but them, except Andr, seemed to be searching for a way around it, and only finding one, appealing to him, somehow making him want to protect them. Then Andr spok, she had kept quiet since they had started speaking about him.

"Why not protect the innocents that might get attacked by the group of rogues? That way they get to ee what you can do, and you get to fight something that might pose a challenge" the amethyst eyed girl had said, and he could feel the hope from the other rulers and he smiled, smirked, she had in the month, a little longer than that, they had known each other, found something she could use to convince him, he had told her, he was a fighter at heart, and that protecting was only an excuse to find strong opponents, and she used that to help the other rulers get rid of a problem "I could but I'm not a hero. Protecting them is only going to be an excuse to fight a strong opponent..." he trailed off Andr rolling her eyes and the rest looked like they had been promised cake only to find out it was a lie, then he continued "... I'm not against the idea mind you, but" and there it was, " After I do it, after I rid you of these rogues, I'll need help with something, with finding something." he finished, they all seemed to slowly accept it, one after the other realizing that they had the better end of the deal, and that he could have asked more, that he could have simply refused, well almost all of them.

Fiora PoV

The meeting was going well, the same as usual, then they reached the matter of Blaze, the man who had refused to tell her his name, who had ignored her in favor of Andr. She smirked, the ideas of what they could have him do, but then the red haired man had said that he would only fight to protect? That unless given a good reason he would do nothing, then Andr had given given a way he could help with the problem of the rogue group, while still being true to himself. She had felt joy, hope, they could use that against him, but he had to add a condition, he would take care of the rogues, but htey had o do something for him, help him find something.

That had been to much, she had stood up, shouting how he had no right to demand something of them, and that he would do what they asked and be happy, that he tried to find excuses so they wouldn't see that he isn't that strong, and that he if was he should prove it, to fight her and prove how strong he was. The man had only looked at her, heterochromatic eyes, looking at her as if she was boring, "None of you pose an actual threat to me, I could easily get away from here and none of you could stop me. I have no reason to prove myself to you" Blaze had said, his voice even the whole time, and she shouted, profanities, insults, all the while trying to make him react, but he kept looking at her flatly.

Then Andr spoke, telling her to calm down and stop acting like a child. She snapped, yelling at her to shut up and throwing a ball of flames at the ender princess, but it never reached, Blaze having dashed in front of it and batted it aside, as if it was nothing, "If you really want to battle, let's take it outside" he had said, nodding to Andr and leaving the room. Everyone taking that as an invitation to go and see what would happen leaving her alone for a instant, before she followed.

Andr PoV

As soon as Fiora had stood up, she had known the blonde would make a mistake, and she did. Challenging Blaze to battle and provoking him, though he only accepted after she had been attacked, if you could call it that, it hadn't even reached her, not even close enough for her to feel the heat of the flames. Then they were heading outside, she had caught up to Blaze, asking him to not kill Fiora, and he had looked at her like she was crazy, but had said he wouldn't, and that had made her eyes widen, he would have killed someone for attacking her? She was happy about it of course, that meant he cared for her, somewhat at least, but it also told her that, mercy wasn't something he was unfamiliar with.

Then everyone was outside, a bit away from the building the meeting took place in, Blaze had handed her his sword saying he wouldn't need it and walking far enough away that she and the rest of the rulers, Fiora excluded, wouldn't get caught in the fight. And after a moment, Fiora had come out, wearing her a golden chest plate and her gauntlets, getting angry when Blaze had said he wouldn't need a weapon to defeat her.

Fiora had thrown balls of flame at him straight away, and he had replied with a wall of wind, enough to be visible, had stopped them in their tracks, Blaze had launched himself towards the blonde, right after sliding on the ground and kicking Fiora's legs, making the blonde fall to the ground, he had stood up, taunting the girl, and the girl had screamed, launching at him with the help of flames, headbutting him in the stomach and making him skid back a few blocks. Blaze smirked, launching himself at Fiora with enough force to crack the ground, a small crater where he had stepped, and kicked the blonde into the air, the man jumping after Fiora with a burst of wind, and kicking the blonde back to the ground the force of the impact forming a crater.

She could tell Fiora wouldn't be getting up from that, for all the Blonde acted like she was the strongest, something like that would knock any of them out, Blaze seemed to know it as well, because he had gone and hauled Fiora out of the crater, leaving her at the side of it and heading towards them. Asking if that was enough proof for all of them, before asking the location of the rogue camp and walking away, she rolled her eyes, telling the others that she would go with him to make sure he was going to take care of the rogues, and following after him.

Here it was. Review if you have anything to say, and I'm taking suggestions for some of the rogue mobs, their names and what elements they use, because yes they will use elements and yes they will get killed. I need three so next chapter won't get written until i get some and FYI it takes me time to think of things like it.
