Chapter 12:The Hidden Princess Violet

"HAAAAA" NEXO SCREAMED AS HE SHOT FIRE OUT OF HIS LEFT HAND AND VOID ENERGY OUT OF HIS RIGHT HAND.

ARNO DODGED HIS ATTACK HOWEVER AND THREW NEXO UP IN THE AIR.ARNO THAN STARTED SHOOTING GREEN KI BLASTS RIGHT BACK AT NEXO AS WELL.THE BLASTS COLLIDED AND A LARGE BRIGHT LIGHT WAS BLINDING EVERYBODY IN THE BACKYARD.

"IT'S SO BRIGHT!" ELLIE SAID WITH HER HAND COVERING HER EYRES JUST SLIGHTLY.

JUST THAN NEXO RUSHED DOWN TO THE GROUND TO RUSH ARNO AND LAND A HEAVY STRIKE.ARNO THAN GOT INTO HIS FIGHTING POSITION AND UNLEASHED HIS GREEN AURA.NEXO FINALLY GOT CLOSE ENOUGH TO STRIKE HOWEVER ARNO COUNTERED HIS ATTACK AND PUNCHED A LIGHT STRIKE TO NEXO'S FACE AND SLAMED HIM ONTO THE GROUND.WHEN THE LIGHT FINALLY DISPERSED, EVERYONE SAW ARNO STANDING ABOVE NEXO WHO WAS ON THE GROUND LAYING ON HIS BACK.

"That's enough" Edward said.

Arno reached his hand out to Nexo with a smile so he could get up.Nexo smiled back and grabbed his hand to get up.

"You did great Nexo!"Amber said

"Yeah! You were amazing!"Viper added.

"Hehe.Thanks you guys."

"Arno you were pretty cool too. That counter you did was pretty cool!"Cloud said laughing

"Thanks! I try."

Edward clapped to get everyone's attention and they all looked at his direction.

"It's a beautiful day out today, is it not? I think I've been training you guys a little bit to much so I want you guys to go out and have some fun.I think there's a festival going on in town today so why don't you guys go and have some fun? Go out and enjoy your youth." Edward said smiling with his eyes closed.

The kids smiled and ran off together out of town."See you later than Edward!" The kids said to Edward as they ran out of the house into town.

"Amber stop running so fast! You know we can't catch up!" Snow had said.

"You guys need to really get out more and stretch your legs.Haha!" Amber said laughing.The other kids laughed as they tried to catch up right behind her.

"So what do you guys wanna do today?"Dawn said.

"How about we all split up an find some stuff to do.This is a big town there should be a lot of activities to do out here."Viper said

"Sounds good.I'll see you guys back home! Later!"Tony said running off. "Hey,wait up!" Amber said following him.

"Snow and I are gonna help some of the towns people help with the festival for later tonight. It's gonna look amazing!"Dawn said "See ya!" Snow said grabbing Dawn's hand and running off into the town.

"Hey Ellie, you wanna go to the beach with me,Viper, and Arno?"Nexo asked

"Sure! Let's go hit those waves!"Ellie said.They all rushed out and Cloud was the last one left into town.

"Well than I guess i'm just gonna walk around town than."Cloud said to himself.

Cloud was walking around with his black tank top shirt on,with his shorts and goggles on top of his head. "Man it's nice out today".Just than he saw a familiar face looking at one of the booths in the festival.

"Hey.Aren't you that girl I met the other day? Violet right?"

Violet turned and looked at Cloud,

"H-Hello. Cloud right?"

"Yeah! It's been a while what's up?"

"I wanted to come down and look at the festival preperations."

"Ooohhhhh I didn't think you were such a party person."Cloud said. She chuckled a little bit.

"No, I just don't really get out the house much and I wanted to see everybody in town have some fun."

"Cool.Do you want to go check out the festival later tonight? I would go with my friends but they're all busy right now."

Violet looked at him with a sad expression on her face. Just than guards appeared from behind Violet looking down on her. "Princess Violet Vision. Your father requests to see you back at the castle. Don't make this hard for us please. You know how much you father doesn't like waiting". One of the guards had said reaching his hand out. Violet whimpered and hesitated to grab his hand but she than eventually grabbed the guards hand to walk off.

"Hey man you can't just grab her hand like that! Leave her alone."Cloud said pushing the guard with a helmet on his head causing him to almost collapse.

The Guard with a suit on rushed and pushed Cloud onto the floor.He than summoned a hot purple aura on his fingers ready to stab Cloud.

"Wait stop! Leave him alone. I'm going alright, just please don't hurt him."Violet said in a frightened voice.The guards stopped they're attacks and than walked away."

Violet walked away with the guards in they're hand, teleporting away.Cloud than got up.

"Jesus Christ that goes was cray strong.Well, I ain't got nothing better to do so it looks like i'm gonna go save a princess.

Cloud walked around town and started to ask for information about a castle.

Meanwhile......

"I have brought your daughter back from the little town just as you requested your highness."The bodyguards said.

"Thank You. You are dismissed." King Gorrudo said, waving them off.The bodyguards dispersed away and left Violet and King Gorrudo alone to talk in the huge throne room.

"My daughter...My beautiful daughter. How I hate it when you run away from home."

"Father..I just wanted to see how the festival was turning ou--"

"SILEENCE!!"King Gurrudo scramed.Violet squealed

"We need to find you a prince.This kingdom isn't enough for me to run on my own.I need you to grow big and strong so you can run the kingdom while i'm gone later out in the future.Thus the reason why we are holding this tournament.To find your prince charming."

"But father...I don't want--"

"YOU WILL DO WHAT I SAY, WHEN I SAY IT!DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR?!"

"Y--Yes father."

"You are dismissed."King Gorrudo said.

Violet was on her way to walking back to her room until both her and King Gorrudo heard explosions coming from within the mansion. Just than the doors to the throne room flew open.It was Cloud!

"You know for a kingdom hidden in the forest you guys really stand out."Cloud said smiling. Violet's eyes blew up in shock to see what was happening.

FLASHBACK......

"MMMAAANNN. I've asked almost everybody around town and nobody has see an kingdom before. Were those guards lying or something? Wait a minute. I know who to ask! Someone who knows every inch of this place!"Just than Cloud rushed to find where Dawn and Snow were and after a couple of snooping around he was able to find Dawn and Snow setting up some of the booths for the festival later tonight.

"DAAWWNN!"Cloud screamed. Dawn turned to look at Cloud."WHHOOAAA what do you have on your face"

"It's panda face paint! It looked cute so me and Snow decided to put some on.Snow turned around with her hand in a peace sign and with tiger face paint on.

"Haha.You guys look pretty cute."Cloud said.Both the girls giggled a little bit."But anyways i'm in kind of a hurry right now and I need help with a little something."

"Yeah sure.What do you need?" Dawn said

"Edward made you fly through out the whole town and beyond right?"

"Yeah he made me fly around town in a loop at least 15 times.I also flew out of town and explored a few more areas near the large city a few miles away from here."

"Right..but have you seen any weird areas around this specific area in town?Maybe in the forests or in the caves?"

"Well there was one day when I was flying near the forest and I saw a large hoard of people heading into a building right into the border of the cities and in the forest areas.I didn't question it since well, I see a lot of weird stuff when I go out flying."

"Do you think you could take me there?"

"Yeah, sure. Snow take care of the booths for me for a little while okay?"

"You got it!"Snow said smiling

Dawn summoned her fairy wings and grabbed Cloud's hands."Cloud, your heavy!" Dawn said chuckling. Cloud chuckled as well.Dawn raced all the way through town and than through the forest which than transferred into a civilization in between the towns and the forest.

"Woah,there seems to be more space around here now than before."

"Woah, you see that big mansion over?"

"Now that's definitely new.I mean look at the size of that thing! It's almost as if the thing was invisible the last time I came here.

"Wait .Can you put me down on the entrance?"

"Sure thing." Dawn said as she started to fly downward toward the entrance of the mansion.

"Alright Dawn thanks for the help but I can take it from here."Cloud said with a smile.

"Okay than. I'll see you later than!" Dawn said waving her hand goodbye and flying away from the mansion. Cloud started to stretch.

"Well than...Now it's time to cause a seen.Hopefully this is the right place though or else this would be really embaressing."Cloud walked up to the entrance to see two guards started to block the door.

"Excuse me.Your not supposed to be he--"Just as the guard was about to finish his lecture Cloud slammed both of the guards head through the door only to be greeted with hundreds of guards in the way.

"Well than...This is going to be some light show."Cloud said while shooting ki blasts everywhere

Back to current time:

"AND JUST WHO MIGHT YOU BE,AND HOW DID YOU FIND OUT WHERE WE LIVED." King Gorrudo said.

"Well to answer both you questions numer one.My name is Cloud Lightning.And to answer your second question, I live with a fairy so she knows the whole forest by the back of her hand, so after I asked her it was easy sailing from there."

"Interesting...very interesting.So what are you planning to do now Cloud Lightning?What was your purpose of coming here? Clearly if you wanted to break in and cause mayhem, than you have already accomplished that goal."

"It's simple.I want to free your daughter from the controlling chains around her that you have possessed.And than I want to take her out to the festival later tonight."Cloud said.Violet's face lit up like a red tomato with her mouth slightly open and her eyes glistened up.

"HAHAHAAHAAHA.YOU ARE INDEED A FUNNY ONE THERE CLOUD LIGHTNING.I'LL TELL YOU WHAT!IF YOU DEFEAT MY BODYGUARDS I'LL LET YOU PARTICIPATE IN THE TOURNAMENT TO WIN OVER MY DAUGHTER'S HEART."

"Whatever floats your boat old man."

King Gorrodo snapped his fingers and the body guards showed up.Violet hid next to the kings throne so she won't enter the fray.Cloud gotten into his fighting position.

THE FIRST ATTACK CAME FROM THE GUARD WITH A SUIT ON.HE RUSHED CLOUD WITH HIGH SPEED, BARELY LETTING CLOUD TO DODGE THE ATTACK.CLOUD WENT FLYING TOWARDS THE WALL CAUSING A LARGE DENT IN THE WALL TO CRASH.HE THAN RUSHED CLOUD THINKING HE WELL BASH HIS HEAD DEEPER INTO THE WALL BUT CLOUD BARELY ABLE TO COUNTER THE ATTACK, WAS ABLE TO LAND A SOLID PUNCH TO THE GUARD'S GUT SENDING HIM FLYING UP.JUST THAN CLOUD SHOT A BARRAGE OF KI BLAST AT HIM.THE GUARD HOWEVER,CUT THE KI BLASTS WITH THE AURA ON HIS FINGERS BUT WHAT THE GUARD DIDN'T NOTICE WAS CLOUD WHO THAN RUSHED HIM SUPER FAST.

"LEGEND'S GOLDEN PALM!"CLOUD SAID AS HE GOT CLOSE ENOUGH TO SEND THE GUARD FLYING WITH PAIN AS A HIGH AMOUNT OF PRESSURE RUSHED OUT OF CLOUD'S HAND.

"THAT'S 1 DOWN."KING GORRUDO SAID.AS HE SAID THAT THE SECOND GUARD RUSHED CLOUD WITH A SWORD BUT CLOUD HAD AN ACE UP HIS SLEEVE.THE GUARD SWUNG HIS SWORD AT CLOUD BUT CLOUD KEPT DODGING HIS ATTACKS UNTIL FINALLY CLOUD HAD ENOUGH AND GRABBED THE GUARD'S SWORD.CLOUD STARTED TO CONTROL HIS WHITE FLAMES ABILITIES, MAKING THE WHITE FLAMES TO MOVE TOWARDS CLOUD'S HAND, CAUSING THE SWORD TO MELT.ONCE THE SWORD MELTED CLOUD PUNCHED THE GUARD AND SENT HIM FLYING INTO A WALL WHERE THE GUARD FINALLY GOT KNOCKED OUT.

"Well that's surprising.I've never seen anybody best those two before.Fine than Cloud Lightning,I will let you participate in the tournament.Violet will take you towards the infirmary and from than on you will get ready to fight a few of the princes that have requested to fight in this tournament for my daughter's hand.Do I make myself clear?"King Gorrudo said

Cloud nodded his head.Violet rushed down to grab Cloud's hand and together they both left the throne room.

"Cloud Lightning...what a strange boy."

Meanwhile in the Infirmary:

"Man those guys were kind of tough. I really wasn't planning on using my flames but if I kept going any longer I probably would've been done for."Cloud said with bandages all over his body.

"Cloud...Why do you keep insisting on putting me in your life?"

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"Well, because of me you hurt your back.And now you have to fight a bunch of strong princes because of me."Violet said whimpering a little bit.Cloud patted her head softly.

"Hey, cheer up.I want to help you for multiple reasons.The main one is me showing your dad that your perfectly capable of living your life the way you want to.There should be no need for you to live your life in your father's shadow, If you really like a guy you shouldn't be forced to marry him in order to be a queen, we're way to young for that."

"C-Cloud"

"Also I hate to see a pretty girl being controlled by someone who's supposed to be a role model I they're child's life."Cloud continued to say with a smile on his face.

Violet started to blush intensily and started to think, "He..really thinks that i'm pretty."

"C-Cloud..you really are an idiot."Violet said giggling

"Haha, yeah I know"
