Chapter 1

Forceful Kidnapping

Three girls lived in a world where the four physical elements; fire, water, earth and wind, lived in harmony. Fire Lily had the ability to control the very element she was named after and was born of it as well. Water Lily, second sister, controlled the element water born of its very essence. Last of the three, Wood Earth, able to control the trees, persuade the animals and shift between the creatures of her land. Each sister was more beautiful than the last and a gem among the forest that they lived keeping it alive and thriving as the elementals of the forest.

One day the girls were putting on a show for many animals and creatures. They all transformed into birds to dance along with the wind as it sang along with their beautiful twittering song. In the shadows of the forest, a King and his two sons along with a few soldiers stood watching the girls. The King was a powerful earth magician greedy with the want for power, as even though Earth was his element, he had no control over it like an Elemental. His first son a dark haired, red-eyed boy was not as greedy as his father, but in his own way cruel. The second boy was a sandy blond haired boy, with sea blue eyes. He could control water as easily as he could think and honestly was the kindest of this small group. Each one had their eyes on a certain bird; the King, on the small brown bird whose feathers were tipped with green. The red-eyed boy kept his eyes on the fire red bird that darted back and fourth along with the wind and the blue-eyed boy kept his eyes on a beautiful blue bird. When the song ended each bird lighted down among the rocks around a pond. When they were only a few feet from the rocks the birds began to transform into the girls. All the animals and creatures slowly dispersed, the girls slipped out of their clothes and dived into the pond. The King and his sons stole up to the pond and the sandy blond hair boy froze the top to keep the girls from escaping. The King stuck his hand to the ice and had some vines grab Water Lily and wrap around her forming a cocoon.

The second son forced the water to envelope Fire Lily making a bubble around her. The only one left was Wood Earth who had to use most of her strength to keep from sucking in the water, as a plant would do when it rained. She soon almost ran out of air and went to surface. The ice subsided on purpose to allow her up out of the pond. She pulled herself out of the lake and collapsed on the ground. The plants began busily sucking the drops of water still on her body. When she was dry fire engulfed around her. The plants became scorched making her scream in pain. The other two came out of the water cocooned by the element that could harm them. The King and his sons turned to leave with the three-cocooned elemental girls behind them when a gray wolf, a red fox, and a lynx came out of the forest. They transformed into three young men. The gray wolf became a black haired man with green eyes, wolf like ears, and a gray bushy tail. The red fox became a red haired man with red eyes, fox like ears, and a red bushy tail that had brown on the end of it. The lynx became a light brown haired man with blue eyes, lynx like ears, and a bushy brown tail.


“What are you doing with them?!” asked the light brown haired man.

“We are going to take them back to the palace to live with us and sing those beautiful songs they sing.” Said the king.

“their not yours to take!” yelled the red head

“they aren’t?” snickered the king, “and are they yours?”

“it doesn’t matter hand them over.” The black haired man looked at the king approach fully

“sorry…no!” the king laughed as his dark haired red-eyed son forced fire in front of the three men. The fire burned the grass making wood earth scream out in even more pain. The king, his sons, and the few soldiers walked away from the forest and towards a kingdom many miles away in the land of the beyond where many people knew the evil king lived.

Chapter 2

A Forced Hospitality

Fire Lily, Water Lily, and Wood Earth were all thrown in a dungeon. Its floors were cold and wet. Wood earth lay in a heap on the floor soaking in the water to help her recover. Fire Lily, dried of half of the cell and warmed the ground of it. Later the next day the red-eyed prince and two guards came to the dungeon. One of the guards sitting out side the door of the dungeon cell opened it and let the prince and the two guards with him in. One of the two guards picked up Water Lily and threw her over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes. The other did the same with Wood Earth. They left with the girls Wood Earth looking around like a scared rabbit. After what seemed like hours, the prince looked at Fire Lily his eyes sparkling.

“I never did tell you my name.” The prince looked at Fire Lily longingly.

“I don’t care what your name is.” Spat Fire Lily “what have you done with my sisters?”

The prince looked at her and said casually as though he had not heard the first thing she said, “my name is Jonathan. Pretty normal name for a person like me right?” he looked at her expectantly. Fire Lily rolled her eyes in annoyance “would you like to see your sisters?”

Fire Lily nodded her head vigorously and waited as Jonathan produced a flame in the middle of his palm.

“Whom would you like to see first?” he asked. Fire Lily asked him to show her Water Lily first.

The flame produced an image of a guard tossing Water Lily onto a bed. The guard left the room and it seemed like no one else was in the room. Than from the shadows in the far corner of the room the sandy blond haired boy emerged completely unclothed. Ice formed around Water Lily’s feet and hands holding her against the bed. The boy moved toward Water Lily. Water Lily’s foot broke free of the ice and she kicked the boy in the gut. The boy grunted in pain and within seconds recovered. He clicked his tongue in displeasure and whistled a high pitched tune that even though Fire Lily couldn’t hear anything that was said or sounded in the image the flame produced the whistle drifted down to the dungeon and through the rest of the castle. The next thing that happened in the image was vines came out from under the bed and stuck themselves in Water Lily’s head and chest. The vines were abnormally clear. They began sucking out Water Lily’s strength. Water Lily screamed in pain as more vines dug into her body and began sucking away at her strength. Within 10 minutes Water Lily became defenseless all but very little of her strength had been sucked out. The vines let go of her body leaving no marks or proof of ever being there. The boy became pleased as he kissed Water Lily. She tried to struggle but the boy easily over powered her. He forced her out of the clothes the guards had given her. He was very rough with her, he would pull her back and hit her if she tried to get away or struggled; soon Water Lily just gave in. watching the way the boy forced her sister to make love to him brought tears to Fire Lily’s eye’s. Prince was just forcing Water Lily to sing when the image changed. From the way Water Lily looked when the boy forced her to sing Fire Lily could tell her song wouldn’t have the affect it would usually have when she sang in her human or water spirit form. The blue flame disappeared only to be replaced by a green flame with an image of Wood Earth in it. Wood Earth cowered in the corner of a bed as the guard left. By the look on the guards face, he obviously had a little bit of fun with Wood Earth on his way up. There was another person in the room. A man from what Fire Lily could tell. The shadow allowed her to know that the man was fully unclothed and by his movements, she could tell he would be rougher and less sympathetic than the boy was with Water Lily. The man threw some kind of milky liquid on Wood Earth who obviously was in pain as her skin sucked it up as a plant would with water. The man emerged into view and he was older by at least ten years. He advanced over Wood Earth who tried to slap him when her hand hit his face Wood Earth cringed. Fire Lily could see the mark left by Wood Earth’s hand. A gleam emitted in Jonathans eyes. Fire licked around Wood Earth’s arms and legs straddling her to the bed. It burned at the plants that were emitted from Wood Earth. She would try to cocoon herself in plants that had every ounce of her strength to protect her when she was afraid or over powered. The fire burned each and every plant until none was left. Wood Earth had no strength left; she was defenseless. Though Wood Earth was a little more powerful than her sisters. She never harnessed her true power. Now she lay there not able to move or to struggle. The man smiled and forced her against the bed. He was very rough with his body and touch. Fire Lily could see the pain in her sisters’ eyes as the king forced himself against her. The man forced her to kiss him and slapped her when she at first refused. The man was very abusive and aggressive with her. His body’s contact to her was even worse. He forced her to kiss him in the most ungodly ways and places. His face would light up with glee when he took her hands and slid them down his body. Wood Earth’s face showed disgust every time he forced her to do this. Once Wood Earth was able to move away slightly but the man hit her so hard that she was knocked unconscious. The green fire disappeared and Jonathan had moved behind Fire Lily while she had watched the last scene. He grabbed Fire Lily by the waist and smelled her hair. Fire Lily was to busy thinking to notice Jonathan slipping her gown off her shoulders. It wasn’t until her body felt the contact of his unclothed body did she notice. Fire Lily tried to push away but was only pulled closer. Jonathan pushed her against the cold stonewall holding her hands and arms in over her head. He kissed her and pushed against her. Fire lily tried to escape but Jonathan held her against the wall firmly. After a few minutes, he let her go.

It was not any better with Water Lily. The sandy blond haired boy whom she came to find out was called Matthew didn’t force her to do any of
