My Romeo's Lullaby

Andy ran as fast as he could to Saphira. His heart pounded out of his chest.
Why did they take her? Did they want something? He pulled at her horns and jumped up.
She blew hot air out of her nose.
She spread her wings and growled one big time before flying up. Andy had a tight grip one her and his eyes were almost glowing with anger.
How dare they take a princess from a king! In the air her saw the dessert and the forest. The Wild Ones was on the border of the forest and the dessert. He saw the two big ice mountains and set it as a destination.
The north has always been a weird place.
He came there with his father ones when he was a little boy. Madness was young and beautiful then. There were stories about giants and wolfs so big you could ride them. Northeners are different.
They think different.
They live different. They dress like it's hot summer up there and no one ever goes to battle with them.
Andy was close to the mountains. They say those two mountains were cursed, that no one ever came there. He could understand why, I mean who would walk away from a queen that fearfull. The tall castle was in the middle of the two mountains and never guarded by anyone.
Everyone could just walked in there, but if someone saw you misbeaving you would be killed instantly by wolfs, cruel, yes, but so is Madness.
Saphira landed on the big mountain.
Andy slid of her neck and landed on the cold snow. He was greeted by a heavy wave of cold air and got goose bumps, but still walked through.
He walked to the entrance of the castle.
The tallest castle he had ever seen. The two doors slowly opened and he stepped back, expecting an attack.
There was nothing. He walked through and looked around. The walls were made of ice, but they were covered with flowers and living plants. Andy didn't understand why the hell someone wants a throne room that tall.
He looked forward and he saw her, sitting on her htrone, chatting with the lady beside her. Madness stopped talking when she could feel his presence. She smirked when she saw this powerless little king walking towards her.
Andy looked at her beautiful lips and eyes as they didn't change a day.
On her right side of the throne was a handsome man with two panthers. On the left side there was a girl who looked intensily bored. The three focused on him and immediatly sat straight up. Andy stopped at the steps to her throne.
"Where is she?" Madness thought.
"Who? Ah, yes, the nice horse girl." Madness gave a look at the bored girl and snapped her fingers.
The bored girl sighed and grabbed a horn.
Andy had all senses on sharp. The girl blew on her horn and stopped again. Suddenly a banging noise started. The banging noise came from a hallway. Andy gave a nasty look at Madness. Suddenly the doors opened.
A giant came through with his hand flat open. Andy's mouth almost dropped to the floor.Cora sat on the hand and didn't look so afraid than he expected.
The giant dropped her with a smile and she waved goodbye to him when he left. She had a different outfit then before, this one was more green and shorter. Andy ran towards her and embraced his girl.
"It's fine, I'm fine, they didn't do anything." She smiled.
He sighed in relief and carressed her cheek. "I promise to protect you better." He whispered before kissing her.
Madness rolled her eyes and clapped her hands. Andy turned to her and stood as a shield before Cora.
"Why did you take her?" He said in a low voice. "We were getting impatient." She laughed and stood up.
Her two helpers followed her and the bored girl with white and blonde hair motioned them to come with her.
"So about the war." Her siren voice ecoed through the icey hallways.

"I have 8 thousand men, 6 hundred giants, 12 thousand elfs, 15 thousand forest people and you expect me to give it all to you to solve some 'who gets the girl' fight?"
She sat in her chair and looked at her chess pieces.
Madness was always good at playing chess. That's why people were afraid of her.
She ones was just a normal girl with a normal future, that was until she discovered her powers. The first one: nature, she can communicate with every living creature and ressurect them.
The second one and the most feared one: Destruction, her mind was made with the most perfect battle stragedy in the world.
That's why everyone feared her.
Life and death in the hands of a person. "The battle with Cora is in less than 3 weeks, if she wins we will have Forendall and she will rule over it, but F.E.A.R will try to get it back, now, if we get together and take down F.E.A.R. it's all yours and you can do whatever you want with it." Madness focused on her table with the world map on it.
It also had little wooden chess pieces with the kingdoms.
"What will happen to Aiden?" She finally looked at him.
"Death."
Madness smiled. "My troops will be there when needed, they're still in my command but you have my support, and for Cora, she will be training here for the battle." Andy's face lit up, but grabbed Cora hand under the table.
"Wait, why does Cora have to train here?" Madness looked at the girl who wasn't that bored anymore.
"Our fighting technic is not known to Forendall, Emertha is one of our best fighters and she will be guiding her." The girl looked proud and stood up.
"Now, leave, I wish to speak with Andy alone." Emertha walked to Cora and grabbed her hand without saying anything.
Cora smiled and waved goodbye. The handsome guy with the two panthers and dark clothing left without a word aswell. "Now about us." Madness began.

"Don't get lost or you'll die." Emertha said behind her. Cora was a little distracted by the view of the castle.
Everything was made of ice, but it still wasn't cold. They walked on the courtyard and Cora couldn't believe her eyes.
Men and women were walking with all kinds of animals.
Wolfs and birds were bigger than she has ever seen. The people had only leather and green on not even steel. Most of them didn't even wear shoes.
Cora and Emertha walked to a corner were men were setting up a fire to roast something. Emertha pushed a bag into Cora's arm. "Here, go change." Emertha pointed to a changing room.
"Where are my boots and steel?" She looked in the bag and saw only leather. "Not needed, now go." Emertha turned around and Cora sighed.

Andy looked out of the window with concerned eyes.
"Okay, I'll do it..."
Madness stood up and gave Andy a hug. "You know it's best for her." Andy nodded and looked down.

Ashley looked at the beautiful sundown. He shifted on the pointy roof of the watch tower. He expected Andy here any minutes. The beautiful pink and orange colours started to fade.
He smiled when he saw a flying black speck in the distance.
Ashley climbed back down through the open window and ran downstairs. On the coutyard he looked up at the mighty dragon who landed.
Ashley frowned and panicked a little when he didn't saw his king. He was about to scream the others, but was distracted by a letter.
He untied the letter from Saphira's horn and rolled it open.
He sighed.
"Oh Andy, what in seven hells did you get yourself into?"
