CS Patra!




Rose Xu had two passions in her life. One was her boyfriend of many years, Blake Chen, a talented pianist and her constant support. The other was dance. She grew up dancing from a young age and vowed that she would never stop dancing. Despite injuries and mental issues, she told herself that she would always be the prima ballerina. Unfortunately, one incident in her past tends to haunt her. It’s an incident that Blake knows about as well and he’s sworn to protect her at all costs.

Then one night, everything changes for both of them. That one moment is enough for Rose to realize what she has been doing. It’s enough for her to want to give up everything that she’s worked hard for. It’s also enough for to push away everything she loves including her two passions. Her decisions cost her a lot of things including Blake. However, her mind has been made up. She is going to perform the final dance of her life.  







The world has been divided into many different lands where the rich and poor live. In addition to that, several people have been granted with powers to control the elements. Rukia Benton is one of those people. Given the gift to control fire, she does her best to keep it a secret from the world. Living up in the rich hills of Calensa, she has been protected by her family from all the dangers lying below. However, it leaves her lonely and desperate for someone to talk to.

Living below in the poverty-stricken lands of the Velt is Kian Ortiz-Shah. Though only eighteen, he's well-respected among his peers. He has grown up to hate the Elementals, thinking that they are the ones who have ruined his life. As a result, he has also become a hunter of Elementals, plotting to get rid of the monsters who cause destruction and devastation.

One night, Kian meets Rukia and both are unaware of each other's secrets. It's an attraction that gets them both. Like moths drawn to flames, they fall for each other. However, will they be able to survive despite their differences? And how will they react once they learn each other's truth?







Ruled by the Empire, the world is filled with people, prosperity, and magic. For years, all three things have learned to exist with one another. Peace was in the world and everything was good. No one ever expected a change and they trusted their emperor.

Then one year, Ciel Delune bought a necklace with a key for his girlfriend, Krystale Rose. That would be the beginning of their lengthy adventure. Not soon after this, they are attacked by the Empire and forced to flee the town they live in with their friend, Alexis Dune. It is then they are told of the Empire's true intentions; world domination. There are five gates to unlock and five keys of fate. Whoever gets all five keys and unlocks the gates will become the keeper of fate. They alone will be granted the power to control anything they wish. The key that Ciel gave Krystale was the Winter Key, which can freeze and slow down time. It also holds the Winter Mistress who will grant them any wish they want when she's unlocked. All the keys are hidden in different places and now they need to find them before the Empire does.

Together with the help of some new friends, Ciel, Krystale, and Alexis are headed for the adventure of their lives. Will they be able to survive or will the world fall into the wrong hands?
