   Natsumi was kept in a much more spacious than the others. It appeared to be an emptied warehouse judging by how big it was.

   There were a lot of guards inside with her and they were all on high alert. Even though she was chained down, her power still had a little reach and any one that got close froze.

   "Do you know who she is?" One of the guards asked his colleague and the colleague answered "we are not paid to ask questions" his colleague replied

   "But you know..." The guard said

   "Considering her level of power she might be someone of high importance"

  "I'm just afraid that someone might come for her"

  "And that might be a bit of a problem"

   "You worry too much, soldier" his colleague replied

   "This job has been going smoothly and it will go smoothly"

   "She hasn't put up any form of resistance"

   "And I don't think anyone is coming for her"

   "This place is not easy to find"

   "And even if someone does find it, there's no way they can break through the barrier surrounding this place

   "So don't worry about it"

   "There's no way they can..."

   A sudden change in the temperature of the room got the attention of all the guards. The entire place had suddenly gone cold. At first, they looked at Natsumi but she didn't seem to be the source of the change.

   They all cocked their guns and prepared to engage whoever was trying to get in then suddenly again, the temperature of the room changed. This time, it was hot; hotter than any room should be.

   It became cold again, then hot, then cold, then hot, then cold. This happened for a while then stopped and the room was warm again.

   "Why did they stop?" One asked

   "Maybe they gave up" another answered

   "It's unlikely" one of the elites said

   "My guess is that they have already destroyed the surrounding barrier and are making their way towards this place"

   "So get ready"

   Soon, the temperature changes started again and the entire room was thrown into chaos.

   "A squad, face the door!!!" The leader ordered

   "B and C squad, face the walls!!"

   "D squad, face the roof!!"

   "Zero squad, point your guns at the hostage, we need some kind of leverage against these guys" he said as he looked around.

   "There's no need for that" a female voice said from an unknown direction

   "You don't stand a chance either way" 

   "Wait a sec, I know that voice" one of the guards said

   "It's 'snowstorm'" he said

   "IT'S SNOWSTORM AND EMBER!!!" he yelled as he saw two people breaking into the building from the roof and the entire place was thrown into a pandemonium. 

   Dressed in flashy costumes and covered in the elements they controlled, the two superheroines landed in the midst of the guards and began wrecking havoc.

   It wasn't that they did anything special in particular or that the guards were not well trained but the event which could hardly be called a fight ended almost instantly. The mere presence of theses two people was enough to make some of the guard fall unconscious. Those that were still conscious were either shivering from extreme cold or finding it hard to breathe hot air and it wasn't long until they managed to bring down all the guards. In the end, strategy was no use against ultimate power.

   "You know you should have tried to make it a little bit more interesting" Natsumi said with a loud voice

   "I love the entrance but the rest was just too OP"

   "I was hoping to watch an interesting fight"

   "Is that you'd normally say to your sister who genuinely worried about your life?" Snowstorm asked

   "What if I didn't make it in time?"

   "You always make it in time, sis" Natsumi replied

   "So I never worry"

   "By the way" she said

   "Where's your fiery friend?" She asked

   "Oh, you mean Ember" Snowstorm replied

   "She doesn't associate much with people"

   "Even I don't know what her actual name is" she said as she took off the mask covering her face.

   "We miss you back at home y'know" Natsumi said

   "But seem to love the life here"

   "Isn't that right, Naomi?"

SHIN SEKAI SECRET: Nega is the first and current king of Dahüd. He founded the country five years before the present time.

  • Burn out

    As soon as Ellie noticed there was something wrong with Orie, she signaled her crew to turn off their cameras. He had been mumbling for a while but soon the mumbling intensified. His eyes were heavy, his voice was inaudible, he could feel his consciousness fading but he kept on praying.He had thought that he had enough strength to keep up the prayer but his condition was worse than he had thought it was."I'm sorry" he said as he fell to his knees and went silent.As the paramedics were rushing to take Orie away the thing that he was trying to keep under control broke free and took over Natsumi.Kaen tried to call back his flames but they were sniffed out as soon as they came in. The mist was thick, it was cold and he could barely see what was in front of him. Icicles were coming at him from different angles and he could hardly evade any of them.He saw himself at a dead end. He could not see anything he could do that would cause him to win the match. He was tired, bleeding, aching a

  • Keeping cool

    "Who should I fear more?" Kaen wondered"Is it the monster that makes me shudder""Or is it the vessel that contains it?"As Kaen prepared to engage his opponent, all that he could think of was the fear that he felt. He could not forget it.Not many remember it but there was once a great incident that took place in Fubuki island. It was an incident that almost claimed the lives of all who lived on the island.A great frost, so cold that no flame could resist, quickly spreading and freezing everything in its path. In the dark winter night when many slept, this frost came along to take their breath.Somehow, everyone woke up in their beds the next morning with no recollection of the past twelve hours. This event sparked many rumors and among them was the rumour that the residents died and were brought back, proponents of this rumor backed their claims by speculating a tragic event within the twelve hours period.That night came to be known as the night where men slept. The "silent night

  • I am here

    "THE SIGNS DO NOT LIETHE TRUTH WILL NOT DIEAS TIME WILL GO BYWE WILL SAY OUR GOODBYESFOR THE TRUE PRIEST TO BE BORNTHE FALSE GODS WILL ALL DIE"Orie heard these words just before he woke up. He looked around in confusion, trying to figure out where he was. The last thing he could remember was that he was surrounded by dust in the arena.He looked at the nurse who seemed surprised for a reason and asked "how long have I been here?""F... Four days" the nurse answered nervously and Orie remain silent"We thought you were dead" she added"Who won?" Orie asked"What?" The nurse replied, still shaken up"My fight" Orie rephrased"Who won?""Well..." The nurse replied"The other guy was disqualified so...""... I guess you won""Oh" Orie said as he tried to get off from the bed but the but the nurse immediately moved to stop him."You just woke up sir" she said"We can't let you walk around till we know for sure that you're okay""I'm okay" Orie replied as he got down from the bed but

  • Still standing

    Of the expectations that the people had, no one expected that a majority of the spectators would be okay with the outcome of the fight. They were sure that what they saw was real, they were sure that what they saw was fair, they were sure that the contestants gave it their all and they were sure that the winner deserved his victory.Even those who didn't support him in the beginning were cheering for him with all their heart, even those who lost their bets because of him rejoiced at the sight.There were many good fighters in the tournament, many who at the wave of their hands would cause marvelous sights but of all the fights in the tournament, Orie had shown them most invigorating.The cheers went on for a while until people in the crowd began to notice that the referee was yet to formally declare a winner. Soon they noticed that orie had not made a single movement since the clearing of the dust, he was still standing but he could not move.Though one person was on the floor while t

  • The bird and the beast

    From within the circle came forth a huge bird of prey; a hawk. It appeard to be fully covered in silver. Just by looking at it, one could tell that its beak was harder than a rock and that its claws were as sharp as blades, even its wings didn't seem flying was all they could do. At this point in the battle where pride was being cast aside, the same thought ran through the minds of everyone watching. "NOW THE REAL FIGHT BEGINS" "Go" at this command from Chris, the bird threw itself at Orie with incredible speed. Orie evaded the bird without problem but what came next was quite challenging. After evading an attack from above he found himself facing one from below. Not many can escape such attacks from Chris. He would use the bird to make his opponents dodge in a certain manner, then he would go in for the real attack when their balance had been compromised. It was quite an effective move, but just not for Orie. "How is this possible?" Chris thought to himself as h

  • The market day

    "This is my day" "This is my day" "This is my day" It kept repeating but Natsumi could not understand what it meant" "This is my day" She knew she had forgotten something "This is my day" She was sure she had forgotten something "This is my day" Something that would help her discern the situation. "This is my day" It stopped as soon as she realized what it meant. She remembered that when she thought it was Orie's birthday, he had told her these words. She remembered how he told her of the four market days of his tribe and that he shared his name with one of them. She remembered that he told her how the days affected his power, and this made her the least surprised person among the audience when Orie got back up on his feet. "WHAT... THE... F***!!!!?" Ellie screamed at the camera "How much blood does this guy have?" "He's lost so much yet he is still standing" "What kind of immortal dragon sh** is this" "This is not easy to believ
