The Baby Born Dragon

Chapter One: Prologue

A very long time ago, just after the world had begun, the Gods were still working on a perfect Earth. However, they were having slite difficulties on the safely of the civilians. So one god decided to seek the help they needed. He decided to create a dragon, one that was great enough to protect any dangers. With all the strength he had, he used the force of the Sun to create this magnificent creature.

He created the most beautiful dragon ever seen by any god. Her name was Lumidel (Lu-me-dell), as she shined in light and radiance. Her scales were as yellow as the Sun and as bright as it too. She came with the abilities to control the light, shining down rays of the sun out from her claws. The god was so pleased to see she also had an amazing singing voice. When she started to sing, all the heavens became jealous of her tune. Every time she sang, the sun would rise up into the world. But don't doubt her fighting skills; she was great at self-defense as much as she could sing. The townspeople of early Earth were very satisfied at the god's gift he'd given them, that Lumidel was for now known as The Dragon of Light and Sound.

However, Lumidel grew lonely as she was the only dragon of her kind. Others were far too small and shallow to ever speak to her. Also, may other Gods were jealous of his creation. They believed that there should be multiple dragons for each of the God's specialties, not just one for Light. With all these concerns at hand, the god agreed that he would create a second dragon.

This time however, he used forces of fire to make this dragon. This dragon came out different than Lumidel. He was fiercer more, powerful than her. The god named this dragon, Enfermis (En-fern-mis). Enfermis had the power to control the fire and flames around him. He could breathe out hot fire and huge flames. He also came with the abilities of lightning, where he could send out shock waves of voltage at any given time. With the two powers combine, he could breathe out molten lava hotter than Mercury. With this power, he was send over to the volcanoes, and could control their heat power to create islands of hot lava. The god was thrilled to see how strong this dragon was. The people of Earth called him, The Dragon of Fire and Lightning.

Many other Gods were impressed by his creation of Enfermis. But then, many of them thought that Enfermis's powers were too powerful. That he could become uncontrollable and destroy the whole city. The god realized that this could be true. He then decided he would create two more dragons, just in case that was to ever happen.

His third dragon was to be one that could defeat Enfermis if he was to ever rampage. He used the forces of water, which was fire's worst component. He was to be name Oxiquedis (Ox-a-quee-dis). He had the power of water, as he could create waves of water from a stroke of his hand. His figure was similar to Enfermis's, except he had curls around his head and tail and that his scales shimmered aqua blue. He had massive wings, as his wingspan was twice as long as his body. However he wasn't the best flier; he used his wings mostly for swimming deep into the oceans. He used his powers to create pools of lakes all around the Earth, so that the world would be enriched with his pure water. He also came up with the power to control the air around him. Whirl winds were his specialty, and with his water and air combined he could make tornadoes of water on his command. The people knew this dragon as, The Dragon of Wind and Water.

Next, the god used the forces of vegetation to make his next dragon. This green dragon was going to be given the powers of plants so that he could counter Oxiquedis's water's attacks if ever needed. His name was Verlice (Ver-lease). His powers were to control the rocks and plants around him. He could send vines of green out from his claws; and green beams from his mouth. With one lift of his arms, he could lift rocks out from the soil, and into the air. Leaves could also be tossed around by Verlice's power. He coloring was a rose petal green, and his wings resembled two leaves. He used his powers, to create land all around the Earth, and healthy crops for the city. The townspeople called him, The Dragon of Earthen Plants.

The god was so pleased for the success of his dragons. They all seemed to work together, and help out the world very well. He felt that the achievement so well, he thought about creating one last dragon.

For the last of his work, he used the clouds around him to come up with this dragon. With his entire might, he came up with Torin (Tor-lin). Torlin seemed to be different than the others. His face was so, down and angered. His scales were royal purple, and his wings were swirled back and forth. He had the power to control the clouds, creating winds of smoke in a wave of his claws. He also had the power to control the darkness around him, with powerful black fire coming out from his mouth. He combined his too abilities to make thick pitch black clouds. His skills were used to make clouds about the town, so that rain would appear for crop seasons. The villagers called him The Dragon of Cirrus and Shadows.

The god announced to the people of Earth that this was the last of his dragon makings. Together, they would watch over the Earth, and make sure nothing harmed any of the people or animals. Together, the five dragons were known as, The Dragons of the Five Elements.

The Five Elements stayed on Earth, making sure everything was safe and sound. However, there was one problem Torlin didn't understand. He was often upset, that he was the last created out of the dragons; yet he was the strongest out of them all. The gods disregarded his remarks however.

But Torlin didn't keep that in his mind for too long. He then set his hearts on Lumidel, the dragon of his dreams. Her Sunrise song stayed in his head everyday. And her beauty tormented him all night, until he finally got the courage to tell her his true feelings. However, Lumidel didn't feel the same way for Torlin as he did. She told him, that he did not love her and that her heart was set on someone else. This humiliation crushed Torlin. He couldn't believe she could reject his soul just like that. He flew away in pain, and continued to mope.

Lumidel however, had love for some other dragon. This dragon was Enfermis, the second dragon created. Most people thought that Enfermis was bad, and never should be trusted. But Lumidel saw nothing of that, just that his power was so unique and that he used it so skillfully. She set her eyes on him, but was too shy to ever actually say anything to him.

Little did she know that Enfermis felt the same way about her. Through his macho tough exterior, was a heart; a heart that needed love. He adored her ever since he was the first created; her figure and complexion was way better than his. And how she would always made the sun rise, with only her voice. He was in love with her, from the moment he had laid eyes on her. However, almost every dragon in the world was overpowered by her beauty. What did he have that could make him stand out from them all. Even so, many people believed that he was a fierce fighter. He often thought how people would think of him actually loving someone. But right now he didn't care; all he could think of was Lumidel. And one day, he finally got the courage to go up and talk to her.

After a few causal conversations, both finally confessed about the feelings to each other. Both were excited to see that they each felt the same way. Ultimately he pledged his love to her that they would be together till the end of time. The townspeople were shocked to hear this news, yet they were ecstatic that the two make the perfect couple.

Torlin grew jealous of Enfermis. He thought that his power was twice as strong as his. How could Lumidel possibly love him!!? Soon, his jealously grew to hate. Hate of everyone, and everything around him. He grew from the air shadow demons, and prepared war onto the Earth.

His Shadow demons destroyed every building in site. Soon, the four dragons were sent down to stop Torlin. Lumidel came down first, and tried her luck.

"Torlin, you have to stop this. You are suppose to be protecting the world, not destroying it," she calmly tried to tell him.

Torlin looked to his love, and answered. "I'm sorry, but it's about time I get the respect I deserve!" he shot out a shadow cloud to Lumidel. She countered it by using a sun ray, but it hopelessly failed as darkness always overcomes light. Light was the only powers she had, which had no affect on him.

Soon, the other three dragons came down to defeat Torlin for good. Enfermis tried his lava, but it was cooled down by Torlin's rain clouds. His lightning was sucked in by the cloud too, and sent right back at Enfermis, injuring him. Oxiquedis was next, sending a tornado of water splashing at him. However, clouds are made of water, so all his attacks were sucked into his giant rain cloud. Verlice then came flying down, and sent out giant rocks to throw at the Cirrus Dragon. Torlin used his shadow powers, to disappear, and re-appear without getting hurt. Verlice then tried his plants, sending leafs out to slice him out. But when they were close enough, the rain cloud poured down water drowning the plants to failure. It seemed all their abilities were unsuccessful to stopping him. The dragons were not becoming weak, yet Torlin had not a scratch on his body.

Lumidel then came with an idea.

"Alone, our attacks might be useless." She yelled to the other dragons. "But together, we might have a chance. Get into positions, I will signal the attack."

The rest of the dragons, agreed to her plan. The each charged up their strongest attacks, and shot them out. Lumidel sang a song, which combined each attack together. It grew larger, into a shocking ball of Earth and Lava. With the last move with Lumidel's light, Oxiquedis sent out a wind of air to push the ball toward Torlin. He yelled out in defeat, and flew onto the ground. The gods sent Torlin to a chamber world, where he would be trapped in isolation forever. The townspeople rejoiced over their now known Four Elements.

The dragons spend another 200 years on Earth. Since the world was in peace now, their job seemed to be boring. Lumidel and Enfermis still in love, and now had 7 kids of their own. However they four were joined with other dragons, as other gods tried to create their own. But their powers and strength were not as mighty as the Four Elements.

As the dragons watched humans and life past, they felt a bit of sadness in their hearts. They would continue to live forever, and not ever feel the afterlife. The god that created the Four Elements felt the dragon's pain. As he was always going to live forever, he didn't find it fair for them to have to deal with that. Lumidel requested to the maker if he could make it so dragons could live on Earth as humans, being half human half dragon. For she was often jealous by how short a human life is, and how they could life it to so well. So she asked him, in hope that dragons now and in the future may experience life to the fullness. He agreed to these turns, and made it so any dragon created before the Four Elements, could live life as normal as possible. But for the Dragon of the Four Elements, it wasn't so easy. Their powers were so great, they were immortal. The god felt that since their job was done, they are sent off anyways. When the time was right, he took the four dragons, and they disappeared, never to been scene again.

Soon after he did this, the townspeople asked where The Dragons of the Elements go. He answered by saying, that they we not needed anymore. They would continue life without ever feeling the wealth of sleeping or dying. He sent them away up into the heavens, so that they may finally rest in peace. Another twenty years pasted, as the god was leaving to watch over other worlds. However the people wanted to ask him one question. They needed to know if they would ever see any of the dragons ever again. He responded,

"When they are needed, they will return. When a dragon is born dragon, you will know that the one of the Dragon of the Elements has returned." Was his last words spoken, before he was gone forever.

The ancient people took note of this. They would wait until they would find the person born dragon, and hope that the prophecy was true. In hope that one day, the Four Elements would return.

If you are wondering where Jake is, he will come. He shall be in the next chapter. Thought I'd just give you some history before I get into the actually story. And I know the Prologue is SUPER LONG x( sorry. I hope you enjoy it. I wish I could upload my drawings of each of the dragons to the net, but they aren't that good looking once I upload them. So until I get an awesome drawing program, just use your imagination!!!
