Fire.. Was all that I could see. I was told that I have to face my fears, and fight out this end. I am the key to saving this planet. But why must I go through with it? Why am I the legendary one? And why.. Just why must it be like this? I’ve been through so much hell before. And I have to face the real hell here soon.
I would ask myself. All of these questions. I felt something on my back. It was her wing.. Trying to comfort me. Trying to tell me something. She gave me this look. Saying “it’s ok“ I sighed.. “It is not I want as well, we need to go through with this“ she said to me. “I know..” I said nothing for a while. But I gave myself the courage, the courage I need to sort this out. The enemy is up there, in his throne.
Watching..
Watching...
For the world to burn. He sits and watches us suffer. But I don’t suffer. I walked up those steps. That would lead me to death.. Or worse. Walking up those steps, was scaring me. I don’t know what is going to happen to me, to us, to the world itself. Almost to the top of these steps, and a door. It sits there standing, like an eagle on the watch. Waiting for me to pull the handle to open what is inside this door. I stopped and stared. Looking at this handle, with the sweat falling to my head. I was burning up. I looked at her once again.
“What is wrong?” she said. I still sat in silence. I put my hand on that handle. I swung the door open. And what I saw. Was something I would not forget. I saw him. Sitting on his throne. He looked up. And saw me. He jumped down from were he was sitting. “ I was wondering if you would make it, you are kind of late. “ he had this evil smile. “ don’t listen to him, don’t listen to anything he says “ she told me.
He laughed. And at a flash he struck me with a tool that I have never have seen before. It startled me. I was thrown onto the wall, with his hands on my neck. Choking me. I couldn’t breath. He let go and dropped me.
“ you cannot kill, what is and what is not, and not to be “ I lifted my self up. To see what I wish I would have never have seen.
What I saw was the thing that everyone has talked about
What did I see?
Fire.. All around me.. Those that have that I have fought to get to this point, are ones that have fallen by his hand. “ Is this what is supposed to happen to me? “ I thought to myself. Was I supposed to fail?
No. I will Not Fail! I stood up and opened my eyes. And coughed. I looked into the distance. I see the enemy. The enemy laughed as he was walking towards me. Standing there, I feel Dred. He smirked. Laughing even more. Laughing like I have lost... then as I looked up, he pointed his weapon at me. Ready to fire, he had the desire to kill me.
I stared.. I couldn’t say or do anything. What was the things that were popping inside of my head. Flashbacks. Flashbacks of everything I have been through.
“I... Lost?” I panicked. All that I have fought for, everything I did for everyone living AND dead. Was all for nothing? I fought to save this world. I fought to my very own power, to save the people of this world.
The fire is spreading. The explosions getting bigger. As I saw the whole world, start to fall apart. My eyes widened. And I started to tear up... I couldn’t get any thoughts into my head. The enemy,
Walking closer
And closer...
And
Closer...
Laughing like always. He started to talk to me. “ you have lost, you have lost everyone and everything that you have ever cared for. “ “ tell me... “
“ what do you have to say to yourself?” Tearing up, I was broken inside. The enemy standing there like he has won. Laughing..
But something inside of me started to crack. I could feel something, being let out of its cage, witch I have locked away. It was being released. My eyes turned into a pure and evil white. My skin turning to the dark creature that I was turning into. I lifted my dark wings. The aura around me. Shooting the black lightning around everything.
I... Have become the thing I Hate.
I shot up, watching the enemy’s eyes widened. He was scared, I could see it in his eyes. The soil around me started to lift up. No.. it wasn’t soil. It was the core of this world. The huge dark crystal that keeps this world together. But right now this was not the core of the world. It was hell itself. The enemy, shot from the weapon, from that he was holding. He tried to kill me. The bullet, broke by the aura, he kept trying nothing could be used to stop from what I have become. Nothing could penetrate this shield.
Claws slashing. Weapons blasting. Dark fire being breathed. I was in rage. The enemy could not stand up against this rage. I kept fighting. What was happening? Right then. I stabbed...
Blood. Dripping from my paws. The enemy’s eyes.. I don’t know what I just did. I looked at my hands. Blood from a dark stab. I looked at him. As the portal of convexity opens. I grabbed him by his neck. “ your home is convexity, you will rot there in the prison were you cannot move or cannot speak. You will be frozen. And you yourself will burn in the hell that you have created, you will not leave, you will not stay. You are the one that has started this and to yourself you will think of what you have done to this world that we the inhabitants of this world that we call home. “
The portal of convexity was waiting for someone to be sucked into the prison that it held. I looked at him for another moment. And I knew, it was time for him to go.
I threw him into the portal. He didn’t scream. He was thrown in silence. The portal disappeared. And the enemy was nothing more than a thought that would be scared into our heads forever. The worlds ripped parts suddenly stopped.
What..?
What is this?
Why did it all stop?
It turns out I fell into a deep sleep. I was falling into oblivion. The world was muted. And nothing around me was to be heard. I failed.. didn’t I? I heard a voice saying my name. It was me. But not me. It was the dark one. His pure white eyes looked into my soul. “ are you awake, And are you alive? Dragon? “ he said to me. I sat in silence. When I heard a second voice. It was faint.
I was falling into the darkness once again. But I heard this voice again. I woke up suddenly. To see her. Looking down at me. She instantly, put her face to my neck. And started to cry on my neck, in relief. I put my hands around her, and then my wings. It turns out I was unconscious for 3 days straight. “ I thought you would never wake up. “ she said to me crying. “ its ok.. “ she calmed down a bit, to hear my sweet soft voice. What was I thinking, I thought to myself. What did I just go through? Where was I for the last 3 days? Was I just dreaming?
No...
No...
No...
I did go through all of that. Because she told me. But I still can’t get it through my head. I looked at the moon. And looked back at her. “ I... I love you.. “
Her eyes widened. And she said quietly. “ I love you to. “
It’s ok...

I Am Awake..
I Am Alive.
The end.
