Hi

@ crucifix: Hi! * cuddles * Sorry that you and the others had to wait so long, but with the redesign everything got pretty mixed up. In any case, we finish our story, even if there are sometimes longer pauses. Thank you for your dear commie!
Today I'm uploading the part again as Fortune still has a lot to do. Let's keep our fingers crossed for her that it will soon be less! * squeeze *

June:

With empty, almost dead eyes, my gaze rested on the magician.
There was a big grin on all four faces, but each one was different. It ranged from malicious, haughty and condescending to amused.
Something broke silently inside of me. I knew what it was. My last desperate hope. The hope of a win!
"So these are your new friends who want to protect you!" I heard Aguar say in a scornful voice. His icy black eyes studied each of the arriving fighters for so long that it almost seemed sadistic.It seemed like he was looking forward to tormenting the newcomers. A chill ran down my spine because I knew Aguar would do just that.
While I was still thinking this, a magician stepped forward who had previously stayed in the background. His long brown cloak moved gently in the wind as a cool night breeze blew across the sand.
I knew immediately who he was, because the deep, dark brown of the fabric made him unmistakable. It was a color known from autumn leaves when they had been lying on the ground for a while. This rich, moist brown, in which one would like to dip one's hand in order to be able to feel the cool yet pleasant heaviness ... The unique brown of the earth!
And Nekrono was its bearer. He alone had power over this element and he knew how to control it. With just one hand he could break the ground and even move mountains, but that was not all that made Nekrono the ruler of the earth.If he wanted, he could turn inside out ... flood the surface of a planet with what is seething beneath its shell. I had even heard rumors that Nekrono had become one with the spirit of the earth. He would have united his soul with this magic to gain full power over the element.
And the moment I saw the great magician slowly approaching, I believed this rumor without a doubt. I felt something that scared me and that made the indescribable power of the black-haired man clear to me. Because with every step he took, a small wave flowed through me that ran through the sand and ended in nothing. It was a strange feeling, almost as if the earth reared up when she felt the pressure of his shoes. And suddenly you knew that the ground was beginning to live under you ...
"You should have stayed where you came from! Instead, you interfere in things that are none of your business ... This simplicity will cost you your life!" said Nekrono in a dark, full voice.Another shiver crept through me, but this time it wasn't an uncomfortable feeling! On the contrary, for the Elementalist's voice possessed what could be described as engaging warmth. It sounded wise and swayed in deep, melodic minor tones that never became too loud or too soft, but always remained in this mysterious pitch.
If you only paid attention to this sound and closed your eyes, you could have assumed that there was someone standing there whom you could trust. But when the meaning of his words got added and one looked into this serious face with the murderously flashing eyes, this glow vanished with one blow.
"We'll see who dies here ... We don't yet know your true power, but you know just as little about our hidden powers!" Piccolo replied in response to Nekrono's subliminal threat. The person addressed looked at the tall Namek with interest and immediately a slight smile flickered over the thin, bloodless lips of the magician.It would even have looked friendly had it not been for those black, hateful eyes.
"Maybe you are right ... who knows the real power of the enemy? But isn't that exactly what makes it so attractive ?! This ignorance, which in the end inevitably leads to ruin." Nekrono said slowly with a thoughtful undertone and added something: "And in the remaining seconds the loser asks himself this one unanswered question: What would have happened if ...?"
No sooner had Nekrono uttered these words than I felt a wave of energy flare up close to me. Startled, I tossed my head and looked at Yin with a mixture of surprise and skepticism.
My best friend looked at the elementalist with the brown cloak out of large empty eyes and let the glowing aura around her body become even brighter. Her fists were clenched so hard it had to hurt, but I wasn't sure if she even felt the pain.An incredible rage spurted out of her green pupils and focused on a single goal: Nekrono!
I knew what Yin was feeling now and I also knew why she reacted this way to Nekrono's words.
Something cramped inside me that inevitably reminded me of the time when Yin had been so close to her own downfall. The time when my best friend had given up on herself ... and asked herself this one question every second of her existence: what would have happened if?
And she had never really been able to overcome the terrible death of the farmer's son Corsa, who had died by her magic. Even today, the agonizing question of why and why sometimes came over her.
So I could understand why Yin couldn't suppress her anger at that moment, but the panic shot up inside me. What would happen if she just attacked now?
I knew the answer ... my girlfriend was going to die!"Yin!" I exclaimed anxiously. "Yin, you have to keep calm! You mustn't feel provoked by these ridiculous words!" My voice shook and I carefully took a small step towards Yin. At the same time she turned her face to me, but I looked in vain for the expected inner sadness in her eyes. Pure hatred and an incredible anger sprayed against me.
"What do you want? You know as well as I do that we have no chance against these guys. And now ... should we listen to all that gossip? Have to swallow all of those scornful speeches? Do what you want, but I will Don't let all of that sit on me any longer and now light a fire under the asses of these show-offs! " she called loudly, while her aura turned a dark red and now really looked like a huge fire.
A terrifying laugh broke the scene at the same moment. I was irritated to see Kalkare, the last of the four elementalists, laughing at my best friend.After a few more seconds, during which Yin and I were too stunned to react, the cutting laugh stopped and was replaced by a big grin. A condescending nasty grin that said more than any bad word.
"What is so funny about that?!" Yin blurted out angrily and sprayed with anger like a volcano about to erupt.
"If you want to know exactly, then I'll laugh at your measly fire magic! ... If that's supposed to be your magic at all. To me, it seems more like you swallowed a candle as a baby. That is what I feel of your magic is not even enough to set this planet on fire! " Kalkare grinned haughtily.
I noticed Yin stare silently at the magician's blood-red cloak and bite his lip. It was even true what Kalkare said ... Yin did not actually have the power to burn an entire planet! Sure, it could have set forests and cities, if not an entire country, in flames, but never an entire planet!"Oh, I'm sorry if that should have hit you! Maybe you should have practiced a little more on your element!" said Kalkare with a cool smile. It was clear that the magician was only trying to provoke Yin. He had discovered its weak point and was now rummaging around in it with relish.
My girlfriend was seething. And then she fixed the fire mage with a look that I had never seen so intensely at her before. This incredible contempt that was reflected in her eyes gave me goose bumps.
She despised him. Him and his magic ... the fire!
And then, when she was about to rush to Kalkare without thinking about it, a hand put on her shoulder and gently forced her to stop.

Yin:

As if by a violent shock, I jumped and glanced over my shoulder in a flash.
This Son Goku held me back with little effort; his face was blank and he saw more through me.Furious, I wriggled out of his grasp and jumped backwards a little! No, he wouldn't stop me from attacking that element mage, never !!!
"Stay here, it's no use. You yourself said -"
"No!", I interrupted him violently and felt how the anger literally oozed out of me! But at that moment I didn't care, I didn't mind! When I attacked Kalkare, the power that was unleashed by my anger was just right for me!
"You can't stop me! You have no idea!" I yelled at him and spun around. Kalkare and the others looked at me in amusement.
"Well? Where's your little fire now? I knew it was just an empty threat!"
"Shut up!" I shouted; my voice cracked at these words and my whole body began to tremble. Out of the corner of my eye I noticed a movement, it was June coming my way again.
"Yin, please! Stop it, he will kill you!", she shouted with a pleading look. I looked in her direction for a moment and then fixed my gaze on the ground again, so as not to have to look into the maliciously grinning face of the fire mage.
"So what ?! What difference does it make? We all have to die sometime!"
I could almost feel June's horror physically and in the next instant I almost regretted these words again - but they had been spoken, there was nothing I could do about it.
I didn't mean to hurt her in any way, June was the very last person I would ever wish badly to and she had always stood by me in the many years that we had known each other. She had accompanied me in good times as well as bad, had been like a sister to me, June was my family.
But even she couldn't stop me from doing what I should have done for a long time! I was hiding, actually you could almost say I was hiding from myself, because my hated fire magic was just a part of me!I WAS the fire, so to speak, and if I wanted to contribute even a small part to protecting this world and June, then I finally
