Chapter 53: The tiger Village

I saw them all holding bows and aiming at me.

I coughed up blood.

Argghh! I'm so weak.

I can't stand up anymore!!

I tried to stand up, but one of them shot an arrow into my leg.

I fell to my knees and coughed.

"IDIOT! WHY DID YOU SHOOT?!"

"I thought she might escape."

They scolded the one who shot me.

Just a little more... my body is about to give out.

"AAAHH!"

I pulled the arrow out of my leg and threw it aside.

I was panting and sweating.

I'm losing so much blood.

"Boss... should we just leave her here?"

"She looks like she's about to die."

"But that girl is different, she turned into an eagle, a tiger, and a snake... what else can she transform into?"

"She even defeated the seven of them! I'm amazed by her. She's strong."

"It's a shame we can't see her face clearly... it's too dark. Is she beautiful?"

"SILENCE!!! QUIET DOWN!!"

"Sorry, boss."

"Where are the two girls?" the boss asked.

"We tied them to a tree, boss."

"They can't escape?"

"No, boss."

I held my stomach. Shit! The bleeding hasn't stopped. I might die here from blood loss.

No choice... I closed my eyes and let ice form in my hands, applying it to my wounds.

I froze my wounds to stop the bleeding.

I need water to heal them, but at least I slowed down the blood loss.

I need to get to the water before the ice melts.

"AAHH"

I screamed as someone grabbed my neck and lifted me up.

I grabbed the hand that was choking me.

Is he going to kill me?!

"L-let go of m-me," I said, struggling to breathe.

He couldn't see my face clearly because of the darkness and my hair covering it.

My feet couldn't reach the ground anymore.

My eyes widened when he unzipped my jacket.

His eyes also widened when he saw my frozen wound.

He looked at me sharply.

I tried to reach the ground.

Argghh! He's choking me!

"WHO THE HELL ARE YOU?! WHERE DID YOU COME FROM?! WERE YOU SENT BY ANOTHER ISLAND?! ANSWER, WOMAN! WHO ARE YOU?!" yelled the man they called boss.

"I-I'm P-Princess Azem-mia of the I-ice K-kingd-dom," I said weakly.

Their eyes widened.

I held my neck as he let go of me, causing me to sit on the ground.

I kept coughing.

"YOU?! PRINCESS?! "they said, shocked.

"AZEMIA!!!!!!!!"

I looked at who shouted.

It was Zhyn and Leanille... thank goodness they're safe.

Their brows furrowed when they saw me. Leanille conjured a fireball and threw it at the man in front of me, making him back away from me.

They ran to me.

"Aze! Are you okay?!! Shit! You're bleeding!!" Zhyn said.

" I'm f-fine," I said weakly.

The two helped me stand up.

"Are you really okay?! You can barely stand!!" Zhyn said.

"Shut up, Zhyn!" Leanille said.

"HOW DID YOU ESCAPE?!! WHO ARE YOU?!!" they shouted, pointing their bows at us.

"It was easy to escape... DON'T YOU KNOW WHO WE ARE?! I AM PRINCESS LEANILLE FALTHEA FIRIS... PRINCESS OF THE FIRE KINGDOM."

"AND THIS HANDSOME GUY, I MEAN THIS BEAUTIFUL GIRL, IS THE AIR PRINCESS... PRINCESS SHERRIA ZHYN AERAZER!!"

"AND SHE IS THE ONE AND ONLY PRINCESS OF THE ICE KINGDOM... PRINCESS AZEMIA XEMISHA FROST!!!!" Leanille said.

"Now you'll taste the hardship, I mean the delight, FROM THE THREE PRINCESSES!!!" Zhyn said.

0____0

>_<

"S-s-stop it, Zhyn... y-you're b-being exaggerated," I said.

"Hahaaa Acting, Aze," she whispered.

"SO YOU REALLY ARE PRINCESSES?!" they shouted.

"Let's get out of here!" Leanille said.

"But how?" Zhyn asked.

"Fly us using the w-wind, Zhyn," I said.

Zhyn scratched her head.

"Oh yeah."

Zhyn raised her hands, and we felt the wind lifting us slowly.

"Wait!! You can't leave here!!"

"Just come with us!"

They seemed to be inviting us and didn't look like they meant any harm like earlier

The three of us looked at each other.

"So? Should we go with them?" Zhyn asked.

"E-earlier I l-looked u-up... there's no other i-island around... we're surrounded by the vast ocean," I said weakly.

"What?!! We better go with them," Leanille said.

"That's right, so you can get treated, Aze," Zhyn said.

I nodded... we landed back on the ground.

"WE'LL GO WITH YOU," was the last thing I heard.

And everything went black.

(A's POV)

"What?!! Have you found them?!!" B said.

"Not yet!!" K said.

"We've searched the whole mansion!! But they're not here!!" G said.

"In the forest!! Let's go out!"

We ran outside.

They were already searching outside too.

"WHERE ARE THEY?!!" D said.

"Where are those three?!!" C said.

"OVER HERE!!"

We ran to Z.

She showed us the book Azemia was reading and some of Zhyn's things.

"What happened?!!" X said.

We were all by the sea.

The sun was setting.

We all looked at each other.

Could it be that they?

0________0

"THEY WERE TAKEN BY THE MYTHICAL WAVE!!!" we shouted in unison.

I just looked at the sea, wondering where the mythical wave would take them. I hope they're okay!!! Zhyn...

(AZEMIA's POV)

"Aze!! Aze!!"

"AZE!!"

I woke up abruptly.

I looked around, wait, are we in a tent? It looks like an old-fashioned tent.

"Thank goodness you're awake... You slept for a whole day!!" Leanille said.

"What happened? And where are we?" I asked.

"You fainted, and Jr carried you here... they brought us to the tiger village. Of course, we treated you, but you've been asleep for a day," Zhyn said.

"Hahaa We were about to prepare your coffin," Leanille said.

" F*ck you, Leanille " I said, sitting up and checking my appearance.

I wasn't wearing my jacket anymore, so I was in a sports bra.

"You! Don't curse at me! but seriously, we thought you wouldn't wake up... we hardly left your side," Leanille said.

"They brought us food, and in fairness, it's delicious! Kollie passed the requirements of a husband," Zhyn said.

Suddenly, someone entered.

"Yikes, I heard that... you, Zhyn, you want to marry me," this must be Kollie.

Who is this person looking at me?

"You shameless... Kollie," Zhyn said.

"You're awake, Princess Azemia," said the guy looking at me.

Wait, this is the one I hit with an arrow in the shoulder.
