Proluoge
Akahoshi
The wind was a mysterious being, one with waves and jets of wind flowing. All the time.
And yet not even the winds spoke to me, when the two dragons layed themselves bared to fight me.
Willing to end me should i prove weak
And I hate that
For i was the son of a dragon rider yet i am forced into a contract with two catastrophes we call young dragons
Each my age
Yet each my senior in power and scale.
Yet I show no fear
For i had
My divine familial blade
Star crosser
The shape of a sworde made of ice clusters of jagged edges protruding fron the hilt. It was a beauty of its own for it was splashed with starlight shining in the nightskys.
galaxies slowly flowing by, as if observing them all from a far.
My divine blade
My inheritance.
My duty.
Shown as i infused it with energy
The silhouette of two mighty dragons, forces of nature one layered black smoke across its body magma pouring from its jaws. Its weight? Felt for miles away the one next to it. A whyvern dosed in pink flames and yet. Their was an wildness to it pink mane of flame pink flames roaring around her like an aura.
Each step previse and fluid as tho gliding across the rock floor itself.
Worst part
The threatend to harm my home shoul I not come out and face them.. how pushy of them
How pushy indeed a roar came from the magma lined dragon its eyes an orange glow amungst the smog.
Fight or die its voice rumbled
I simply readied my blade and they charged
Chapter one
Pesky dragons
Pesky problems
Walking down the street in city z 1 dragon and 1 evolved whyvern walked into a bar.
I thought dryly, wondering how i got here.How i managed to let them follow me from home the city Kaiya were both the living and the dead exist in harmony.
All the way to city z,
All while, After attacking me as a test of worthiness.
And for what? All for some dumb prophecy.
All this sounded like the start of a bad novel.
Annoyingly so.
And with that I paused,looking carfully so as not to be noticed.
To my right.
I glance back at the two trailing me. The girl noticing smirked.
A smug beaming look on her face.
Bad move .
She walked right behind me, as though this was the most exciting thing of her day.
One that says this fun at my expense. She began the skip as if to give me a better look at her. My head tracked her keeping a close eye on this wyvern
Then she did something ridiculous.
She twisted in one smooth motion and "began.. to skip backwards."
How does one even do that?
Anyways upon closer inspection she was a pale skinned women.wearing a hot pink painted leather jacket.
Right under her jacket she wore a white tank top and pink painted jeans giving her a toned silhouette. Looks like she fights..
alot.
Along with her lustrous hair which seemed to shine pink with power. And Her pink eyes sharpened with her amusement.
As tho she was hunting me..
"what,think im cute or somthing."
With scowling i saw her laugh a freeing kinda of laugh.
as she begone to slow down her skipping to let me catch up. I heard a growl from behind me. Sheesh
Though that aside.
I begun to wonder why, she seemed to always have her hands in her pockets.
As though nothing could touch her.does she think she owns the sky and the ground?
How confident of her.
But somehow it does't feel like a bluff.
Then i begon to notice how off the city felt.
Watching passively i noticed how the streets ahead of us, began to glow blue, light and faint.
Curious.
Now shops began to close their doors,
waving people away.
A prickle of foreboding hit my neck.
A wave of gridded blue waves crashed the 3 section street building 2 blocks ahead of us.
It rocked towards us.the wave growing smaller. decoloring from blue to green struggling to stay alive. Mizuki reacted faintly to the grid as tho it were foreign, yet understood its nature. Then it phased through to me.
It felt as though i was walking through a shallow sea of energy. If the sea could flow through your being.
Pondering this foreign energy.i could feel the flow of ambient mana that we don't have at the old city of Kaiya.
With that i remembered modern cities well its that their stupid
Yea So someone's fighting.
Glancinf once again this time without bothering to hid hid it.
He looked bored behind me as though this was the slowest day in the world.
Completely diffrent from when he fought me.
He looked alive then almost..
Brazenly so.
I begone to notice how He was brown skined. Difrent from his dragon form black as coal with red and orange veins between his scales.
his left eyebrow lifted, As if to say you like me too. Though i couldn't tell if he was serious or not.
The girl not so quietly said "2 timer"
I heard a puff right after.
With an annoyed growl
I noticed how he had layered black and orange strands of hair.
Looking like dried magma.
In a layered messy bun kinda way.
He wore a black blazer with a white t shirt and black slack.
he walked with a royal like air about him black eyes refocused on whats ahead of him.
along with that. He had a black belled earring with a dragon sigil on it.
A magma filled roaring dragon.
Cool.
This time,
People began to run passed into the building behind us.
Glancing back i noticed a shelter sign painted in bright red.
With a sigh i asked "What even are your names" with a pause the begin to glance at each other as if this didn't occur to them.
With a sigh i stated "first you attack me to test me.--" I heard a snicker.
Then i knocked striaght into a pole. My head knocked backwards.
Mana roiling throughout my body. The metal pole pierced my ears like a needle.
I paused.
That was more painful than it should've been
Must of been my mana fluctuating.
The man stopped eyes narrowed.
"Did you just..use your mana?," suspicion covering his face
the girl thoroughly amused begon laughing pink underskinned wings sprouting as she flew a few feet into the air.
Rubbing my head I could hear the girl laughing up 2 stories high
"i kick scaly butts and now im both your dragon rider?" I say in agitation
The bright pink women chirped up high"I'm Mizuki akano." Still laughing
"great to meet you pole smacker". Still hearing laughter the magma haired man with annoyance in his voice said "Well im kokoro"... i turned around looking confused"thats it? I tilted my head" You dont have anything else to say?" He shrugged as though not caring. I sighed in exasperation. Putting my hands to my face tilting my head up i wondered how i managed to find these weirdos. Or more importantly how they found me...
Hmm..?
that was wierd.
it seems Now knowing there names an expectant silence followed.
My neck pricking.
Mizuki began flapping down.
Staring at me
With a begrudging nod i announced my name "akahoshi"
Then suddenly with only the sound of somthing flying.
A jolt of suprise passed me as police cruiser curved mid 3 section street then went flying towards us.
Breathing in i concentrated on the Soara's breath stlye a type of fluid movement.
with a a flick of my hand, I drew the blade at my hip, a simple katana. to simple for my liking. I see the cruiser my blade whistleing. I cut the truck in.
to.
ribbons.
focusing on the center of it all, the car froze as if waiting for permission to break.
With a step,
I thrust forward straight through the center. Cruiser flying.
It tore apart.
till only shrapnel was left.
the sound of metal pinged.
a yelp.
the sound of metal turning to slag.
Mizuki and kokoro
Both looked at me.Mizuki with indignation "hey!do you know hard i worked on this outfit!" her slightly ripped left shoulder and leg.
With a grunt " no I dont and frankly I dont care"
She looked like she was about to pummel me when kokoro pointed out her outfit.
Only to then take a second look at herself and do a 180 smiling with glee at how stylish it is.
For once she pulled her hands out her pockets then clapped once approval head tilting.
While kokoro now satisfied at doing his job of defending me mentioned
"Well dont you have a bit of flare akahoshi"
Though he seemed to have a snarky feel about it waiting for my reaction.
Giving him nothing he moved on
"Oh and Mizuki your stlye is terrible,"
She snarled at him
He glared back
So he disapproved of the mess
Judgy one that one.
Though remembering what mizuki ssid during the test i relize a dragon of high decent would
What came after is what realy did me in.
A splash of cold air hitting me.
Ice crystals blooming all over the streets ahead.
Yes this is it.
Ice crawled across the street floor the green grid crawling with it.
This is why I left home.
To face the strong—
Soooo im in trouble now
