Okay all this is my first story for BoF. Be warned that this is AU and right now I am debating on wether to use BoF4 or Bof3 characters. Also most of the names that I have used, they have been made up. But anyway I almost forgot my disclaimer: Well I do not own anything that belongs to Capcom but the plot is mine. There, but some day! Runs away as Capcom sends agents out to get her Well On with the story!

It started before the time of the Great Empire, almost ten thousand years ago...

The races were divided and chaos stretched across all of the land, and arcane powers ruled. It was not until seven brave priestess came together and called out seven gods, each to guide and protect seven different lands, the Wind Dragon Shiori, the Flame Dragon Ragnok, the Water Dragon Suein, the Earth Dragon Beda, the Metal Dragon Fuuin, the Grass Dragon Kuushia, and the Dragon of Darkness Makada. But another dragon was called, Ryu the Divine Dragon to watch over the rest and to bring about the first order. Ryu in his might separated each of the lands and the dragons and set down the laws. His strength was amazing and he sent the dragons to seven different areas on the main continent. Ryu saw that there was a smaller lesser, but there were no inhabitants so the land mass missed the great dragon's eye.

Soon his work was done and Ryu slept for five thousand years. During this time all the world forgot of the Great Dragon and just revered the lesser dragons. Only those who paid direct homage to the Dragon and his subordinate dragons. Life flourished and time went on, but as it was the mortal beings could not refrain from seeking power. A sect of priests who named themselves the followers of the Cristal-tirith, after a being that they called forth from the depth of the nine pits of the abyss. The priests gained power from this being. The sect had all forgotten of the Great Dragon, and they set a plan to gain power; they captured the guardian dragons and killed many of the priestess whom attended to the dragons. The Cristal-Tirith itself was draining the power from the imprisoned dragons and grew stronger. The power that the sect and the Cristal-Tirith had gained was not to be theirs long. Threes priestess escaped the slaughter and used there power to awaken the Great Dragon. Ryu set off and used his power to destroy the evil sect of priests and imprisoned the Cristal-Tirith.

But the sect had been a cautious group and they had hidden most of their greatest magics and summoning spells so that if something was to befall them, somebody later could revive the sect and the Cristal- Tirith.

The danger of the sect and Cristal-Tirith was abated and the world safe for the time being, but Ryu knew that trouble would start again. So he decided to create an Empire, in which it would be easier to defend against large crisis. Ryu just called his country the Empire and on one day everyone in the Empire gathered at the place of Ryu's summoning. Ryu showed himself to them and chose out of the people one who had a good heart and good judgement and made that person the new ruler. Ryu left this person two gifts and three things; the first of the gifts was a beautifully engraved upon and it showed the true reflection of the holder and it could reflect anything that came upon it. The second gift was a pendant that could call Ryu along that it was the official insignia as the Emperor. The pendant was also made the wearer have good judgement and could not be taken off until the ruler was ready to descend from the throne. Ryu also had three laws that he made sure that he wanted to be in place. The first was that the ruler could be either man or woman and didn't have to be confined to the one ruling family. Then each person had to write a summary of the that one year, so that meant that everyone had to know how to read and write

For five thousand years the dragon slept, unknown to all of the world except for the dragons and sect of priestess whom first summoned the dragons. But five thousand years is a very long time for those who die and beings of the mortal world are prone to lust for power and chaos. Powerful sorcerers captured and killed many of the priestess who attended to the dragons and then captured the dragons and used the dragon's power to take over the world. So after a five thousand year sleep, Ryu woke, beseeched by the very order of the priestesses who first called him.

The Divine Dragon smote down the sorcerers and released the dragons, and in this great show of power his great presence was know and Ryu gained the title Great Protector of the World. Ryu knew that he could not leave the world the way it was though because it had fallen into ruin to quickly. So this time he chose from among the peoples a person who would be the ruler and emperor of a very large portion of the world. Into this one person Ryu bestowed the gift of right judgement that would follow the next in line and a pendant that could be used to summon the Divine Dragon in times of peril. Ryu left three things that the emperor was to do, the first being that the order of power was to be the emperor's choice of the most suited person, man or woman, and the order would not be limited to the ruling family, the second thing was that the construction of the empire was to be completed by the emperor and there was to be one shrine that was to be dedicated to Ryu, and the offering was that each year a complete summary of what had happened to be placed in there. That summary was to be complied from every single person and so meaning everyone had to know how to read and write. The last thing was that the emperor was to rule wisely and Ryu would listen to everyone, so if there was word that the emperor was failing he would come and appoint a new one. These were the three things that Ryu required to be done, and after the making of the empire he went back to sleep. Now in the present age Ryu is about to be called again...

Sorry that this is really short but this is only the prologue. I will see if I get at least one review, then I will post chapter one. Umm also I really need a beta right now because as you can see I have terrible grammar. Well I hope that you like this. R&R
