American Dragon AU Self Insertion
Its a short prologue and more stuff will be revealed as the story goes on
The ancient Dragon species was much more powerful than the Dragons of today and they could do things that most couldn't even imagine but at the height of their Empire one of their own betrayed them and tried to wipe them out. They were able to defeat him but had to sacrifice their powers and lives in the process but on that same day a plan was made for some of their own to stay behind and make sure the Dark Dragon could never rise up and harm the magical world ever again. This is the story of Jonathan Long, one of the last of the Ancient Dragons, the one who is destined to stop the Dark Dragon once and for all.
Draco Island, Capital of the Ancient Dragon Empire, 50,000 years ago
Johnathan Long remembered it as if it was yesterday.
The ancient Dragon Emperor paced through his study on Draco Island. They were under siege by an enemy none of them saw coming. One of their own betrayed them and was now using his own army to wipe them out. Although they had no idea who the traitor was or where he was they had a plan that would at least weaken him for thousands of years but they knew that he would eventually rise back up to destroy them once and for all. To stop this they developed a potion to make a dragon live forever but it was severly limited in quantity to only enough for 3 people. Although many thought the Emperor himself should be one of those 3 he was instead going to use it to save his family from what they were about to do. "This spell will scatter all our dragon chi across the world and that includes the Dark Dragon. The rest of us will no longer be dragon but with the help of that potion given to us by our God Bahamut himself not only will you, your mother, or your sister not lose your powers but it will also make you immortal. I also understand it can be a curse as well because you would watch all those you love grow old and die around you while you yourself remain but you can't let that cloud your emotions. Are you ready for this? Do you understand what I am asking of you John?"
The Emperor's son, a light Blue dragon with a similar build to Jake, just stood there and answered showing almost no emotion on his face but his father could tell he was worried. "Yes father. When the time is right the Dark Dragon shall be destroyed and the magical world will finally know peace. I just wish there was another way instead of sacrificing yourselves."
"This is what needs to be done John and everyone is prepared to give that sacrifice. Soon we will all join Bahamut in Heaven and with him we shall watch over you always."
A few minutes later their last desperate attempt to preserve their species was activated and the combined power of all dragons except for the 3 who drank the potion was spread across the world including the former power of the Dark Dragon, he swore that this would not be the end and that he would one day rise back up and destroy the magical world once and for all.
