Enemy Nation

*** Two months later. ***

The sound of the whirlwind caught his attention, he was suddenly trapped in a stream of his own thought, " What would it be like back there in my world?", what would they think happened to me?, he imagined as multiple thoughts continued to crave into his mind

"Hey are you okey ?", asked James who seemed to have noticed him absent minded

" Yeah , I'm just a little stressed out from the training " replied Alexandro

" i must compliment you for your outstanding performance in today's training, you are at the wit end of the second basic transition stage of martial arts in just two months", james added

"I guess that's because i am determined to find my way out of this world, so i must try my best to be better than those northern freaks" Said Alexandro

"Don't get your hopes high, there's no way you can be stronger than the northerners",said James, "you shouldn't think of becoming enemies with them", he added

" we treat them like they're some kind of gods that we shouldn't offend", said Alexandro irritatedly

"They are not our enemies, though they can be bossy at times, the shield valley has been a peaceful place for many years thanks to them" replied James

"What do they have to do with that?" it's not like they are protecting us or something? asked Alexandro

"Indirectly" replied James, other enemies around us don't dare to trespass or attack us because you are part of the northern protection" said James

"Sorry to say but as far as they stand in my way of getting to my world, I see them as enem...

\ BOOM \

"What was that that noise?" Asked Alexandro

"I think it came from the front gate, let's check it out" said James

\ A while later \

"Woa what's going on, why the crowd" said Alexandro to a fellow spectator

"the fire prince is here"

There was total silence as the fire prince emerged from a chariot of beasts

"Greetings inhabitants of the shield valley, on behalf of my father, the lord of fire ,king of the seven kingdom's and protector of the shield valley i drogàus prince of the northern kingdom whereby demand of the shield valley one thousand men who are at their peak of martial art for the battle against the southern enemy"

The crowd went wild as everyone seemed to disagree to the decree of the prince, suddenly the baron of the shield valley emerged with his escorts

"we have heard your the decree young prince, but this time it seems not to be agreeable because taking one thousand skilled fighters from the shield valley would leave us vulnerable to external enemies" he said

" It seems you ungrateful people dare to disagree to the decree of the lord of fire, you know the consequence and you shouldn't dare" replied the prince

"At the moment we have just six hundred fighters who are at their peak of martial arts and we would be willing to give five hundred, if you don't find that acceptable you can call us out of the union of the seven kingdoms" said the baron

"Very well, from this day the shield valley has been proclaimed as an enemy of fire and have lost their place as one of the seven kingdoms under the protection of the lord of fire" said the prince, from now on you inhabitants shall suffer under the hand of the kingdom of fire, he added as he walked towards his chariot of beasts to take leave

"Gather all the inhabitants of the shield valley at the ancestral meeting grounds" said the baron, "this day might have marked the beginning of a war we might not survive", he added.
