Once upon a time long long ago there were many worlds. They each were unique in their own way. One of them was made of fire and the other out of ice there were 10 worlds in total but one day when technology was too advanced on earth the people became hungry for power. They wanted to rule all the worlds of the universe they sent a satellite that destroyed all the other worlds. And so the powers and elements the other worlds were made out of turned into marks all the people of earth got. The marks would appear with a colour on their face when the humans turned 16. The colour of their marks told them what element they could learn to control and master. The fire was the rarest of them all. The fire was represented by orange but back then they did not know colours so they called it Pyro. Like Pyro, there were others like Cyro, Anemo, Geo, Electro and more. There was a mark that was even more powerful than fire but nobody knew what it was, The couple who created the satellite were crowned king and queen of the earth they got the most powerful mark even more powerful then fire. While taking care of the earth they also had the power to take people’s marks and to change the colour of their marks as well, But there were other marks that could also change the colour of their own mark. So the king and queen decided to keep their mark colour a secret whenever they needed to go out they wore makeup so no one would know the colour of their mark.The king and queen would hold a mark check for everyone in the world every year. To make sure nobody is faking their mark for fame and at the same time they needed to know the color of the people who got their mark that year. Even though the marks were given randomly the system always gave two people the mark of royalty and it would always only appear at their very first mark check. It had been 20,000 years since the marks first began and no one knew anything about the colour of the royal member’s mark colour all that changed one day as a girl named Lucky got a blue mark. When she told her friends they were all super shocked as nobody had ever gotten a blue mark before. Her friend advised her to cover up her mark she trusted her friend and did as she said. “what do you think the blue means?” asked Lucky and to which her friend replied “ I Have no idea let me check the internet. OMG did you see the latest news, lots of people have gotten random colours!” “OMG no way do you think that someone else got a blue mark as well?” asked Lucky confused “Only one guy, his name is Lucas and he goes to the same school as us so you might run into him during our mark check, its today after all ” said Lucky’s friend Sarah “ok you might wanna un-cover your mark Lucky’ Said her other friend Amy “good idea I don’t wanna get in trouble,” said Lucky as she wiped off the paint she put on her face. 1 hour later Lucky and her friends go to the palace for their mark check. just as Lucky was about to go in she heard the queen say“Ok, you are good, must be nice to have Pyro. Ok, I will take one more person and then I’m gonna take a break. Who is next? ah, it's Lucky. Come on in child”. As Lucky came in the queen looked like she had seen a ghost “OMG a blue mark but how, it does not appear before the princess’s first mark check. How?” said the queen “Huh? What on earth are you talking about your majesty?” Asked Lucky in confusion “OH my, Sorry if I seemed a bit rude but the blue mark means royalty you can change people’s marks take their marks, Erase their marks and more. Who else knows about your mark?” said the queen “Only my friends know about my mark, Wait hold on a sec you're saying I am royalty?” asked Lucky in disbelief “ Yes my child you must meet your prince now. Uh — Ruby can you show Lucky to the palace? Take her to the room where the prince is Also arrange the marriage and the coronation tomorrow” “Wait wait wait wait wait hold on there I don’t even know who this prince is and I am being married to him tomorrow? isn’t that a bit soon? I haven’t even graduated high school and you want me to be queen?” Just as Lucky said that the maid took her to the palace and guided her to a room where a man was on his phone as soon as he saw her he jumped up and said “ oh hey there, you must be the princess. I am Adam the prince. What’s your name?” Lucky said “ Nice to meet you, My name is Lucky and I guess I’m a princess now” “Okay Lucky look I know that you have no idea about what's going on but the thing is we are getting married tomorrow” said Adam “ ya I know the queen told me at my mark check” replied Lucky “ The thing is there are a few royal secrets that no one knows about and the only reason we are getting married tomorrow is because when the prince and the princess get married to each other they unlock a new power which they can use only together and that power is literally having the power of every mark. When we are crowned king and queen we get another mark which is in black colour when we get it we will be able to use this new power seperatly. You might be thinking why now we can unlock this power after we get to know each other, but that’s not the case there is an evil organisation named the Akatsuki they have hacked the system which is in charge of giving marks to people that's why our marks came before our first mark check. Since the system has been hacked they have already added some evil coding into it the only way to stop it is if we get the satellite that was used to destroy the other worlds and program it to remove all elemental power from the earth and give back the powers to their own worlds I have come up with the coding already and this coding will not only bring back the other 9 worlds but it will also create 9 galaxies far away from earth and keep the planets safe from anything like this happening again. I know all this as I have done my research I used a fake name Lucas an unknown boy who got a blue mark. I came to the palace library a few days ago to research on my blue mark that's when I met the king who told me all this. I happily agreed as I always hated the system and was always trying to think of a plan to destroy it, it messed up our world and now I finally had an opportunity to destroy it once and for all. are you in Lucky?” Lucky agreed as she also felt the same way. The next day they got married and were crowned King and Queen. They activated their new power and got a black mark each and they were training together to defeat the Akatsuki. The day arrived when they found the hideout of the Akatsuki they wasted no time in going in. They had prepared enough to fight them. They knocked out the all the guards and went inside they saw the satellite that was used as lucky was about to reach the machine a person appeared in front of her she had a turquoise mark the strange person started talking and said “Well if it isn’t the famous lucky and her relentless little king I have had my eye on the both of you for a while now. Oh, allow me to introduce myself my name is Itachi and the meaning behind my turqoise mark is evil and that's exactly what I am. I want both your black marks now or the satellite is gone I attached a bomb to it and all I have to do is press this button and BOOM! now we don’t want that to happen do we so be a good little girl and give me your mark! NOW!” “Hahahahaha you really think I am going to do that you are wrong. UNIVERSE CHANGE ITACHI’S MARK TO PURPLE” Lucky summoned and as soon as she did that Adam shouted at her “WHAT DID YOU DO PURPLE MEANS COMMANDER OF THE WORLD YOU CAN’T EVEN CHANGE IT NOW YOU CAN ONLY CHANGE A PERSON’S MARK ONCE YOU STUPID GIRL” “OMG I am soo sorry I didn’t know what purple meant” Said Lucky scared “ what are we gonna do now?” asked Adam while itachi smiled and said “HAHAHAHA I AM THE MOST POWERFUL PERSON IN THE WORLD, UNIVERSE GIVE ME THE KING AND QUEENS MAR- — WAIT, WHAT! MY MARK IS FADING ” “(universe erase Itachi's mark)” Lucky had summoned quietly Lucky and Adam were relieved “now to disable this bomb. Done!” said Adam As Lucky entered the different code. The satellite on the way out of earth took all the technology advancements alongside taking everyone’s marks. Now we have been able to make the same technological advancements. This happened over 1 Billion years ago. Even though we had to work hard to make these technological advancements again it's worth it not to have marks that define you. Lucky and Adam travel to all the worlds and make sure there is no more chaos.

THE END
