"The wave does not need to die to become water. She is already water"

22|NEVER CROSS THE PRINCESS

Terra, the King of the earth itself but also life. He smirks when he looks at his brother whose look has hardened. "Where is she then?" He asks him, not in the mood for his brother's games. Not only is Isolde missing but she's also away from him and when he doesn't have her by his side, he tends to get angry and when he is angry, the waves become deadly and one does not wish to be on the ocean or near any water of any sort. Terra can only chuckle as he walks around his study.

"In due time, brother. In due time" He speaks to his brother. Ahmeya looks between the two brothers with a strange look on her face as never has she seen the two of them. She stands there and it is as if neither of them notice her, but it can also be because she is just a ocean nymph while she is in the presence of two Kings who are amongst the most powerful beings in all the worlds that exists. "Though what I can tell you is how she fights with all that she has" Terra speaks to him with a smirk on his face.

"Her wild nature is indeed what keeps her alive and yet is the very thing that strikes her down" He speaks to them. In his hand a flower appears along with an air bubble that forms around it. He lets it go and it floats in the waves, moving softly back and forth. Poseidon forces the air from the small circular bubble that is around the flower until the flower itself touches the water. Slowly it falls to the floor where it has drowned. "Such a shame the same cannot be said about your petty flowers. Now, tell me where she is, or an island will go down" Poseidon threatens his brother.

He will do what he threatened and will do with a smile on his face. Watching the plant life die under his palms and seeing how it all bows before him in the end. Terra's face does change even when he tries to hide it. Ahmeya is not certain if Poseidon has seen the Chang in his brother but she saw it. He's afraid of it. The King of nature is affected by his words for he cares far too much of the nature itself.

"Careful brother, do not forget that your petty ocean touches land. One does not wish to know what happens when it wishes to break free from the ocean" Terra speaks, even when he only buries himself deeper. The fact that booth brothers are aware of is that both of them need one another to keep the world alive, to keep all beings and matter breathing and living. For the ocean cannot live without the plantation or animals, and all plants and animals need water in order to survive. Yet the two brothers lose sights of it in their disagreement.

Poseidon can only chuckle, hiding the slight fear that he does feel. For not only does he need to take care of all the animals of the ocean, to make ensure that they live and life goes on, but he also has a duty to the girl that he loves. However, nothing and no one, not even his brother will be able to stop him from getting the girl that he loves back and often he has to do unspeakable things in order to get back what rightfully belongs to him, and there is nothing he would not do to get her back.

Though he already knew that she was on land but that is where matters get much more complicated and while water flows through the land, it is weaker than the one in the ocean. And his brother is the one that controls nature and the lands, for him, finding her would be the simplest thing that he does. But, Terra never does anything without getting anything in return and the prize for finding his Queen will be expensive. His brother does not seem any gold nor treasure, he seeks something else entirely. A favor that he can use whenever he wishes and it can be anything.

While Lucifer might be the manipulative brother, Terra does come in close second but he is not as evil as their youngest brother. Poseidon eyes his brother with his ocean eyes before he smirks. "All right, what do you want in return?" He asks, even when he is well aware of the what his brother wants in return. The nature brother can only chuckle. "In some years there will be a ship sailing on the ocean. That ship is to make it safely to land with all humans alive on board" He says.

Poseidon raises an eyebrow at his brother's strange request. "Why does it matter to you that a ship crosses the ocean?" He asks him. Though, he should not be wasting much time for he should be out there looking for his love. Not only that but he has to deal with the mess that his younger brother has created in the Underworld. "It is not the ship but the humans on it. Now, do you wish to discuss it even further or find your Queen?" Terra asks him, annoyed that he has top wait there in the ocean a second longer that he wants to.

Ahmeya watches as her King sighs before he nods his head. "You got yourself a deal, brother but do not for one second believe you can cross me. For if that ship were to sink and all perish, it is only yourself that you can blame" Poseidon speaks and his brother nods before he chuckles. "Your wild Queen. Isolde. Her mouth runs when she should not speak and her mind works in devious ways" Terra tells him, perhaps stalling or testing his brother's patience and perhaps even his temper as well, which he enjoys testing with every opportunity that he gets.

While the three of them in Poseidon's study speak to one another Isolde's bored expression can be seen from a mile away. Her hands are tied together with iron chains and being held by a man that she is vaguely familiar with. Though her memory fails to let her know who it is. The man does not speak to her other than to let her know to not speak, but alas Isolde has never been the one that listens to when people are telling her or ordering her what to do, and therefore his warnings do very little.

Her feet exhausted beyond exhaustion as she is being forced to walk, which only results in the girl's mouth voicing out everything that she does not like. The Princess might be exhausted but Isolde always has enough energy to be able to speak what she thinks and allow her mind to voice out all the things that flow through her brain. She just wishes that the chain that he holds would be shorter so that he would hear her better but she can imagine why it is a rather long chain but he made one mistake in that aspect.

"If you were clever, you would know that you are eventually going to be found. Not to mention my father's men are everywhere searching for me, which means that your behind as not only one but two armies hunting you. I can imagine how that must pain you so deeply" She speaks, his groan does make her smirk. Knowing that her words or hr voice or both annoy him which does make her situation much better. Those who dare kidnap her would suffer the consciences and not just the fact that they might get beheaded but her own revenge.

"I will be in the very front when they take off your head and I will lift it up in my hands. It will be glorious, do you not think?" She asks him. She does not know if her words do affect him that much but they do annoy him which is more than enough. Her plan of annoying him until he lets her go is not the only plan that the girl has in mind, she is a trickers and she always has something planned, and he is about to know what happens when one crosses her.

The man has not spoken a word to her but even Isolde is clever enough to know that he's holding back his tongue, all she does not know is why. And also where he's taking her. He has been making her walk for a long time and her legs are barely able to stand. Her ripped dress doesn't help either. It is much heavier than she had thought it was as in the ocean it floated around her, but not it is heavy on the ground and tears and rips that have formed are tripping her, though she is able to keep her balance, they annoy her still.

Isolde let's out a sigh as she walks towards a large tree, and goes the other side of and into a circle. Her pale green eyes do not miss when the man holding the other end of the chain pulls harshly but ends up falling on his back. Isolde lets out a laugh when her eyes see it happen. Standing by the tree she watches him stand up from the ground, the anger on his face as he glares at her. Muttering something in a language that she does not know under his breath as he goes into a circle around the tree to free the chain.

He continues to pull her through this forest that they're going through, walking endlessly. Never seeming to go anywhere in a forest that never seems to end. Isolde does not know as long they have been walking but her human body does complain. Her stomach has not had anything to eat for some time and her body is more thirsty than she thought she would be. Then again she has been walking in the forest with the sun shining down on them. Despite the thick trees the sun somehow manages to shine through.

Though the man that is taking her does not seem to be tried at all nor has the intention on stopping any time soon which does make her even angrier. Despite the chains hurting and scratching up her skin, Isolde pulls against the chains. Her wrists bleeding and yet it does not seem to matter to her, the pain seems to fade away as her anger rises. "I order you to let me go, right this very second!" She orders him, her voice raising but he does not even seem faced by it.

She cannot see his face which only angers her more. The more that she pulls and argues with the chains, the harder he begins to pull. "I am the Princess Isolde and you shall follow my orders, or else I shall have you sentenced to death" She calls out to him and this does make the man stop in his tracks. Isolde smirks when he does turn around, but the look that he gives her makes hers fall. His face is familiar to her and then as soon as she sees it clearer she realizes that this is the same man that had shot her with an arrow.

He walks over to her with a dark smirk on his face. "You are not the Princess you believe yourself to be" He speaks and this is the first time that she looks into his eyes to see nothing in them. Other than the evil that is in there and it does not even hide from her. She narrows her eyes at him. "What do you speak of?" She asks him. Despite the growing fear of him (which she's not about to show that she feels) she does not back down.

He chuckles as he comes closer to her, but Isolde does not back nor do anything other than stand in the same spot and look at him. Challenging him. If this man that she knows is named Dimitri wants to scare her then he will not succeed, even when he already has but Isolde would not be caught dead admitting that to anyone, especially herself. "No one has told you? Such a shame... truly" He tells her and gives her an evil grin. While Isolde's face becomes puzzled as she does not know what h is speaking or referring to.

His voice however does send the most horrible shivers down her spine which she would rather get rid of. He stands in front of her and looks down at the pale green-eyed girl. "You are not a daughter of a King, little girl. You are only half a Royal" He tells her with a smirk that coats his face. In her shocked state she feels this anger wash over her and before she even knows what she is doing herself, she has moved. Her knee comes in contact with his crotch with a powerful force which she sends from herself.

The force so strong and angry that he falls down to the ground holding his crotch while Isolde looks at him with pure anger in her eyes. "You would lie to a Princess?" She asks. Words fail to come out of her mouth as the rage inside her takes over. As he is on the ground she goes on top of him and uses the chain to wrap around his neck. Then she smirks. "Your lies do not affect me. Whatever it is that you believe in, killing monarchs and Royalty. It will all be for naught when it is I who will be loved everywhere. Your name will forever be forgotten" She whispers to him.

Her anger knows no bounds and she pulls the chain as it is wrapped around his neck. He begins to choke and thrash around but she doesn't stop. Not until she hears that he's on the brink of death does Isolde let him go. As he coughs for his life she searches through his pockets. Once she has found what she has been looking for she takes the key out of his pocket and uses it to unlock the chains around her wrist.

"I am of Royal birth and God himself has chosen me. You are nothing compared to what I am. God has no quest nor density for you. You're nothing in the eyes of God" She tells him as she stands up from the ground. Satisfied when she sees the fear in his eyes, for the first time since she has met him there is this fear in his eyes. The darkness is lost while the fear is there. She knows very well that the fear that he feels now, it is the fear of her. The fright of what she might do to him.

She turns around and starts to walk away from him, despite her body being far too weak to carry on, she continues to walk. Not knowing where she is going, she just continues walking. Until the Princess has reached far enough from him and to the point where her legs have already given up, she sits down by a tree. Isolde carries no weapons in her hands nor on her body, cursing the person who made the dress that she wears for not hiding a pocket for weapons and cursing herself for not carrying a weapon on her body at all times.

Breathing heavily she leans back against the tree and listens out for his footsteps which the girl has memorized. Dimitri is not intelligent and he walks roughly and harshly through the forest. Making all who live there knows of his presence. Isolde would be able to hear him if he came close to her but as the minutes which soon turn to Horus begin to pass, she doesn't hear him. Isolde stays in the same spot for some hours before she stands up again from the ground, using the tree to help her stand.

Her body so exhausted still that she has a hard time standing on her own two feet and yet it would take much more than that to take her down. With a heavy sigh she begins walking again. Her stumbling walk through the forest is quiet but to herself Isolde feels as if she is the loudest person in the whole world. While walking she wonders where she is and how she will make it back to where she was. She can barely even remember what happened to her. All she knows is that she had spoken to Hunter and then nothing.

With her groaning and moaning from the pain that her legs feel and how weak her body is, she starts to feel this feeling that she's being watched. Yet, every time that her eyes look around herself to see if there is anyone out there, there is nothing. It also surprises her that she has not found a single animal nor even any life at all. As if she is in the middle of nowhere that carries no life, and perhaps that is where Isolde is. But sooner or later she will have found something. Food or water or a village perhaps.

The feeling inside her only grows with each agonizing passing minute and she becomes more conscious of her surroundings. Isolde's pale green eyes are everywhere, almost making her dizzy in the process. Trying to spot anything that might tell her who or what is watching her for she can feel eyes on her and yet she does not see them. When Isolde has had enough of this she stops in her tracks and for the last time looks around herself once more to make sure that there is no one there, before she opens up her mouth to speak.

"I know you're out there, show yourself!" She calls out. Her anger shining nicely through her words as they cut through the silence of the forest. Nothing answers her back but her own echo but she does her movement behind her and she turns around, quicker than she has ever done. "There is no need to shout, little girl. I can hear you just perfectly" The familiar voice of Hunter speaks and she gulps when she is finally met with his appearance. Which shocks her to the core as she falls down to the ground.
