I Am Destruction

Ally's POV

I ran from the gates of evergreen forest as fast as I could. I jumped over stumps in the way and vaulted over bolted rocks. I tripped over a few branches but managed to get back into the main part of Corinth's. I ran through the dirt path and bumped right into someone, hard.

"Ally!" Lucas yelled and hugged me tightly. "I was so worried about you. Do you know what your father would do to me if you never made it out of those woods alive?" he said in my ear.

"Well I'm fine. But get this I ran into someone in the forest!"

"That's great. Was it the fire warrior?" he asked pulling a water bottle out of his bag and handed it to me. "I don't know. He tied me up and we only spoke for 5 minutes until fire soldiers showed up out of nowhere."

"So Max was right! We have to go back later tonight!"

"Lucas I'm done doing your dirty work. You can do it yourself." I stated sipping on the nice cool water. "But Ally I need you for this! We could become-"

"Legends, I know that." I finished.

"You're so stubborn." he said nudging my arm. "Yeah and you're too demanding." I said walking off. He jogged up to me. "Why were soldiers there in the first place? Do you think they know we froze one of the cameras?"

"Probably. But not for sure, I don't know I guess we'll find out when the time comes." I said finishing my bottle of water and throwing into a trash can. Suddenly a trumpet blew from the amplified speakers. "All Corinthian's report to the fresh mount fountain lobby immediately!" A fire soldier barked through the speakers. Everyone dropped there things looking around in confusion. "Uh oh." Lucas said.

I rolled my eyes and grabbed his wrist as we ran through the crowd of people and up to a small hill. Fresh mount fountain was sort of lobby-like. There were cobblestones and a huge fountain in the middle of the pavement.

A loud trumpet played before us. A couple fire soldiers walked out as some Corinthian's filled the whole place. "All hail Lord Fates!" one of the fire soldiers pronounced.

Fates walked out slowly, his shoes tapping against the cobblestones. He went to a small stage and sat on thrown, over looking all of us. "Bow before the king!" the fire soldier ordered. A wave of people bowed before the king before Lucas and I bowed along with them. "You may stand." Fates said. We all stood up.

My body shook with fear and my hands started to tremble. What if this was about evergreen forest?!

Lucas took my hand in his. "Chill out Ally everything will be alright." he said not taking his eyes of Fates every movement. Fates finally stood, a greedy look playing on his face.

"One of my commanders has come with good news, and it appears that someone froze the cameras to evergreen forest!" Fates barked. Everyone gasped. "Now who in their right mind would do that!" a women whispered to a man quietly. Gee...tough crowd.

"And whoever did that must pay severe consequences!" Fates yelled over looking the crowd intently. "Now does anyone want to confess that it was them? If you do I might go easy on you." he offered. Everyone starred at each other. "No one? Hmm, I guess I'll just punish all of you. Commander!"

"Yes my lord?" a fire soldier with a badge on asked getting on his knee's.

"Lead your army into Corinth's and burn down every home to the ground. That will teach them not to test my patience!" Fates said with menace.

"Lucas I have to stop this. This is all my fault!" I ran up to the front. "It was I who broke into evergreen forest!" I announced. Everyone looked at me and then they busted out in harmonious laughter. I looked at Fates and the commander that started to laugh along with the crowd. "What!? It was me!" I yelled.

"Precious, you Allison Dawson? The girl with no powers whatsoever managed to freeze a camera and vault over the gates without being seen?" The commander said in a dark chuckle. Well when you put it that way it sounds pathetic...man I really did not think this through. "We really have some bad liars my lord." the commander joked. Fates smiled wickedly.

"I'm not joking!" I said.

"Ok crowd settle down! Commander go do your job." Fates ordered. I stood there in shock. How could no one believe it was me!? "Stop!" Lucas called out. The commander stopped in his tracks and looked back at us.

"It was I who froze the camera and broke into evergreen forest.." Lucas said hanging his head. "Lucas!" his father called out in desperation. Fear looping around his eyes. "I'm sorry my lord. My curiosity got the better of me... I'm willing to take the punishment but please do not burn down our houses."

"Lucas no-"

"I'm sorry Ally..." Lucas said walking up to the king. He got on his knees and looked down. "Come with me." Fates demanded. "Everyone clear out! You are no longer needed!" the commander ordered shooing all of us away.

I walked out as the gates closed on my face.

I saw Lucas pulled away from the stage hands forced behind his back as the soldiers led him into the castle slamming the door shut. I ran down the hill and past the crowd. Tears poured down my cheek... I had to go back into evergreen forest. Not only for me but for Lucas. I ran up my porch steps and knocked on the door.

"Ally! There you are. I heard about Lucas. Why would you proclaim such a crazy thing!" My father barked at me.

"Because I had to save him dad. He's my best friend. Did you even see the look on his fathers face!? He did that for me he saved this town. This isn't about me anymore than it is about him!" I shouted before running up the stairs and into my room slamming the door shut.

I've made up my mind...later tonight I'm going into evergreen forest and I'm going to find the fire warrior and set him free. He'll save Lucas. All I have to do is get him to trust me.
