Prologue

"MIDDLE, MIDDLE WHERE ARE YOU?" yelled a tall, silver haired woman.

"In the back hurry." a male voice answered. There was no need to repeat it she was there in the wink of an eye.

"Where is she?" he was referring to the small bundle of cloth she cradled in her arms, and though he tried to take the small child, her loving mother wouldn't let go "THERE IS NO TIME!!" he yelled, and it was true for even as they spoke the walls of the building crumbled around them "I know this is for the best but..." she said as she looked at her child for the last time.

Middle put her next to the other four babies "Have you given her your item yet?" he asked.

"Yes" she pointed to the object with tiny wings and a crown at the top around the young child's neck. Middle closed the oval shaped capsule "Go, join the others they need you... of course you realize since through that object you have transferred to her your powers you won't do much good..."

"Not only am I one of the..now five guardian but I'm queen, it is my duty to live...AND die for this land."

He stayed silent; he knew she was right but that didn't make it easier. She turned and ran off and he ejected the capsule "Go, destined one, on to a better life"

Now he had to get out of the building before it collapsed. She met him at the door again even though it was only a few seconds since she left last her hair was dirty with ash and her robes torn. "What are you doing you must fight-"

"Promise when she returns you wont let her forget me?" she begged.

"I promise now go!"

"Promise...promise you'll never forget me." she said looking him straight in the eyes. "I.I couldn't if I tried" the ground shook throwing her into his arms where he kissed her with all his heart for the last time.

And this time when she ran off, she didn't come back.

She joined her fellow fighters, all as wounded and almost helpless as she. They had transferred their powers to their children. Lucky for them, so had the enemy.

Middina unleashed another wave of destruction knocking them to the ground once more.

They staggered back upright. "We know what we have to do." said one of the women, she had blue hair. They nodded and held hand, using their last bit of power to save their world.

This time when Middina got close and tried to attack she was sucked it to there circle that had miraculously transformed into a vortex. "This isn't over, not by a long shot!!" Middina screamed as she disappeared. "My child will finish what I started!!" "We know and so shall ours!" said a green haired woman.

They smiled at each other for the last time and all disappeared together.

The sky was clear again, the earth didn't shake and the people cheered. They would be able to resume there peaceful life again...at least...for the time being...
