The man fell on top of the female then he fell to the side of her. His eyes looking at her as he took his last breath. The running of his comrades was quick but not fast enough because when Allen and Cayden arrived, they saw there comrades laying side by side lifeless. Allen slammed his fist into a tree engulfed by anger. Cayden looked down with sadness in his eyes.
“Allen send word to the chiefs that North and Benton are dead the search for a new Elite will begin” Cayden sighed “I will bring North, and Benton to the HeadQuarters,” Cayden said as the roots of trees grew to pick up both bodies carefully before putting them in a case of flowers and green life as there tomb.
“I will and please you know that I could help you caring them back it won't be hard….” Allen said then he whistle two horses came running toward them. They stopped, and Allen walked toward the horse bag he took out a piece of paper and a quill.

Dear Council Leaders,
It brings me great sadness to report this, but North of the Blue Clan has died as well as Benton of the Red Clan from the Elite. It appears that they were sent into a trap by the townspeople it was multiple dark wolves and an archer. Unfortunately, we don’t have the full details of there death since no one else was present at the time. Cayden of the Green Clan and I are heading to the Elite Headquarters with their bodies we ask that the search for the two new markings begin now. The Dark forces are killing Elite members now which causes great concern to all.
- Allen of the Grey Clan member of the Elite

After Allen finished his letter, he rolled up the paper tying it finally put the seal of the Elite on it. He then threw it up into the air, and the wind took it towards its destination on Allens commands. Then he walked over to Cayden and the two tombs. He sighed and bent down resting on his knees. He placed his fist on the floor, and he bowed his head.
“Thank you, you both fought valiantly it was an honor to have been your comrade,” Allen said while Cayden stood to the side watching. Allen stood up, and a small tornado appeared picking up both of the tombs just three feet from the ground. Allen walked toward there horses then he mounted one and Cayden mounted the other. They both took off, and the tornado that carried the tombs followed them as they rode to the Elite Headquarters.
Meanwhile at the border of the four clans territory was a fort with a grand hall in the biggest hall were the four clan leaders. They sat around the table discussing plans of attack. Then a window blew open, and a letter came into the room the letter fell in front of Aira, the leader of the Grey clan. She saw the seal of the Elite then she knew it was from Allen or Melody. The leader's eyes were all on Aira as she opened the letter then she read it.
“Ambu, Afi I must give you terrible news..” she said looking at Ambu who seemed calm then she looked at Afi who looked concerned then she continued to speak “North of the Blue clan member of the Elite has died along with Brenton of the Red Clan member of the Elite” she looked at Tivona who became worried. The room was engulfed in silence for a few minutes then Afi spoke.
“I will send riders to the Elite Headquarters to retrieve the body of Benton I will also start the search for the next Red Clan member of the Elite” he looked at Ambu who nodded at him as a way of saying that he would also send riders and do the same. Aira looked a Trivona who agreed with there course of action.
“It’s concerning having not one but two members die at the same time..this means that the darkness is growing stronger than we thought,” Trivona said speaking the truth. Afi had his elbows resting on the table then he rested his head on his hand. He was in deep thought. Then he looked back at the other three leaders.
“It is we must pray to the Gods that they keep the other members safe and that they pick worthy members,” Ari said then all of the leaders nodded there head then two guards came into the hall they then were sent out to spread the word.
A week passed, and the leader returns to the hall after grieving the death of the North and Benton. They all sat around the table. After an hour of discussing, a guard enters the hall in a rush with worry on his face.
“What is it why would you come in without permission?” Ambu asked in a calm and soothing voice. His hands rested on the table as he faced the guard.
“Apologies Clan Leaders..but there's a woman at the gate claiming to have the marking of an Elite member….she refuses to show us she said only the leaders might see me, Sir, what would you like us to do?” the guard said as he looked at the leaders as they whispered to one another.
“Send her in please if its a trap I’m sure that four clan leaders can take out this one girl,” Trivona said, and the guard nodded then he hurried out of the hall then to the gate.
Five minutes pass then the hall doors open. When they open the figure of the girl enters she is wearing a cloak covering her face. Then she looked up at the clan leaders she lowered the hood of the cloak revealing her face and hair. Her hair was a light shade of red, it was curly and hung above her shoulders half of it tied back. She looked at all the clan leaders in the eye; her eyes were a crystal blue with specks of gold in them.
“You say you are a new member of the Elite? Tell us who you are? What clan are you from? Show us your marking?” Aira said looking at the girl. The girl took a step closer to the leaders. Aira looked at the other clan members examine the girl as she took a step closer.
“I am Destiny of the Red…” she paused, “and Blue clan...and here is my marking,” she said then showed her inner wrist. It had a water droplet falling into a flame. The droplet was the symbol for the Blue clan, and the fire was from the Red clan. The leaders looked at her wrist then Trivona jumped to her feet, and the others were shocked.
“You dare lie to the Clan Leaders!!!” she yelled then vines grew from within the cracks in the stone floor. She then had the vines go towards her to pierce her body. Destiny looked at the vines before they reached her a wall of ice formed in front of the girl protecting her. Then the ice froze one of the vines then the ice wall instantly became a raging fire that burnt the vines killing them. Just as fast as the fire and ice were there, they disappeared without a trace. Then Afi looked at Ambu who was also in shock about what they had just witnessed. Trivona took a step back looking at the girl.
“I will say this once more I am Destiny of the Red and Blue clan, and I have the marking of the Red and Blue clan Elite members,” she said this, and she stood tall looking at the Clan leaders.
