The Other Side

Thinking deeply, Ace knew he had to find more clues if he was going to figure out what the picture actually means. He looked at the picture and tried linking it with everything he knew. He stared at the huge Phoenix picture and started shaking his head, maybe he knew something. Waking around he found another symbol that represented peace, but it was sticking outside the wall. Ace pushed the flower inside the wall, and in his surprise it opened up. Since he had nothing to lose, Ace walked inside the part that opened. After walking in the door behind him closed, but this didn't scare him, so he kept walking forward until he could see a light. As Ace was getting closer to the light, it was starting to get colder.

Ace blew out the lantern he was holding with magic. After Ace entered the outside world, all he could see ahead of him was an icy forest. What was this icy wonderland? Ace decided to walk into the forest hoping to find someone there. After walking for a while he ended up next to a lake. He was led to it by a familiar scent, Ace walked around the lake and saw a red liquid on the floor. He bent down to look at it and he found out it was blood! Ace didn't know whose blood it was but the first person that came into his mind was Xenon. Now Ace knew that he was nearby, if his scent was here.

Ace wandered back into the forest and followed Xenon's scent. Worried, Ace started walking faster until he walked infront of this cave. Not noticed by anyone, Ace looked inside and saw a horrific scene, a women hugging Xenon's arm. Ace rushed into the cave and everyone looked at him, he pulled the women off Xenon's arm and held him by the shoulders, "Are you hurt?" He said with a serious face and tone

"I-I'm fine but how are you here?" Answered Xenon.

"That doesn't matter." Ace said while letting go of Xenon's shoulders.

"How dare you push me!" Lilith shouted.

Ace looked to the side and saw Lilith laying on the floor, "Who are you?" He said as if he didn't see her.

"That's what I should be asking you!" Lilith was getting angry again.

Flora laughed and Ace looked to his other side and saw Flora sitting up. He had noticed that she was very pale.

"Did you get hurt?" Ace asked Flora.

"Yeah, I did."

"What happened?"

"An icicle went through me." Flora said it like it happened in everyday life.

"Are you okay now?" Asked Ace.

"Yeah, thankfully Finn thanked my life." Flora looked at Finn.

Ace glanced over at Finn and gave him a dirty look. Finn smiled at Ace but he didn't smile back.

"So how did you end up here?" Asked Flora.

"I just stumbled in on this place and I followed Xenon's scent."

Xenon looked at Ace strangely, "You did what?" Xenon was shocked.

Lilith got in the way and stood infront of Ace, "You haven't answered me yet, who are you?!"

Flora quietly whispered while smirking, "Your rival."

"Why did you touch my fiancé?"

"Your fiancé?" Ace looked at Xenon and raised his eyebrows.

"I don't know why but she keeps calling me that." Xenon nervously responded.

"But I love you and you promised to marry me." Said Lilith.

"I never said that, your the one that says your going to marry me." Said Xenon.

"But the truth doesn't lie." Lilith was getting mad for the 100th time.

"Stop making yourself believe something that is not real." Xenon also started getting mad.

Ace butted in and stood infront of Xenon, trying to protect him. "He said he won't marry, so get it into your empty head and leave him alone before I deal with you."

Xenon had never seen Ace like this and it kind of scared him.

"What could someone you like do something to him." Lilith sassily said to Ace.

Ace pulled out his from the air, "Don't test me."

Lilith looked like she wasn't going to give up.

This was going to become a war against Ace and Lilith.
