Dragon Warrior the title given to a great hero one destined to save the world from great darkness few can truly carry the burden that this title carries with it even fewer believe that such a thing even exists. In fact within the worlds constantly changing history there have only been three who have ever carried the title of Dragon Warrior and they never knew that they had it the only thing they had as proof of their title was a birthmark on their chest in the shape a winged dragon. These great hero's went thru life and death never knowing the truth of their predetermined destiny their names would fade with the passing of time but there deeds would be carried forward in history as legend. But this is not a story about them and their legend for a new Dragon Warrior has been born and the world knows that his birth is a sign of things to come and one day he will be needed to protect the world from the approaching darkness this is his story his fight his legend his name is Solo…..and he has a long way to go.
"Dark…I...I can't see anything."
"That's because your eyes are closed boy."
A gruff voice says.
I snap my eyes open in time to see the blade of a sword coming strait for me my reflexes kick in and I roll out of the way just in time I hear the blade make contact with the floor. I get up quickly and turn around with a vertical slash from my own sword but no one is there all I hit is air but before I can react the blade of a sword taps my shoulder.
"Your dead boy"
The old bastard said in a calm tone I turn to face him my shoulders slumped and my pride damaged he places his sword on his shoulder as he looks down at me and speaks.
"What have I told you about one on one combat."
I roll my eyes and repeat myself for what seems like the millionth time.
"In one on one combat you never turn your back on your opponent you always keep your eyes on them no matter what."
WHACK!
"owww! What was that for you old bastard I repeated your words exactly!"
"I hit you for rolling your eyes you hear but you don't listen boy and that will cost you in battle at this rate those monsters will tear you to shreds out in the world."
I rub the bump on my head with a sour look on my face as I listen to him old man Ray I call him to everyone else in the village he is just Ray he's an old friend of my dad's and an ex-adventurer from what I hear but his skill with a sword portrays a man who has seen his fair share of battles his gray hair and beard were clean cut and his face is stern with I cut over his right eye and despite being an old man he was built like a brick shit house. His good eye narrows at me and he asks.
"Do you think you can continue boy?"
I take the chance to distance myself from him as I raise my sword to him.
"Anytime you're ready old man." He smirks at me.
"Well you're not lacking in spirit at least."
He then sheathes his sword I look at him bewildered as I lower my sword a little.
"That is enough for today ill whip you scrawny ass some more tomorrow in the mean time go eat something and get some rest."
He walks toward the stairs to exit the cellar as I sheath my sword he then stops and turns around abruptly he walks to a group of barrels and reaches behind one of them he comes back up with a rather large frog in his hand he then speaks to it.
"If you're going to spy at least chose a form a little more fitting for a cellar."
I don't understand at first but then it hits me.
"Elisa is that you?"
Then in a puff of smoke the frog transforms into a young elf girl with long pink hair Ray is holding her off the ground by the collar of her dress she has a sheepish grin on her face because she knows she's been caught ray sets her down gently then leaves the cellar. "How long were you there?"
I ask her in a serious tone as I cross my arms she gives me an innocent look and replies.
"Not long just around the time he started throwing rocks at you."
She gives a nervous laugh,"…..that was three hours ago you were watching me get my ass kicked for three hours!"
I slump my shoulders and pray death to take me people knowing I got my ass kicked was one thing but having them see me get my ass kicked was unbearable
Elisa puts her hands up and try's to console me.
"It wasn't that bad you really held your ground against him that's not easy to do."
I slump down in a corner and hug my legs.
"Your just saying that everyone knows that old bastard just toys with me."
Elisa can't help but laugh at my pitiful state.
"Ahhahahaha oh Solo cheer up you'll get him one day."
Were outside the seller now leaning against the railing of the bridge Elisa the only one in the town that looks around my age she won't tell me how old she really is all I know is that she hasn't aged a day sense I've known her and that when I was a baby she would look after me and even change my diapers that though alone sends chills down my spine but she's an elf its natural for her after all her mind is still that of a young girl I scratch my head and heve a big sigh.
"That old bastard really worked me over today I think he is trying to kill me at this point."
"No he's not ray is just trying to prepare you for the world outside the village that's all."
"I didn't want his help too begin with he just grabbed me eight years ago when he came here and said boy I'm going to make your life a living hell from this day forward and eight years later he has held true to his word.
"Oh come on no he hasn't,"
"He made me clime up a cliff with my bare hands in a thunder storm."
"That doesn't sound too bad."
"He was at the top throwing down boulders,"
"…..i'm sure he had a reason for it."
"One time he got me lost in the woods and sent a pack of wolves after me."
"Well um maybe he,"
"And let's not forget the time he tied me to a rock and had the village mages take pot shots at me."
"Oh I remember that day I hit you eight times with whoosh."
I glare at her,
"Oh I mean that day was awful,"
I sag my head at her lack of sympathy.
"just forget it,"
But she doesn't she stays quiet for a minute before she speaks again.
"Um you know ray says you are making progress."
"Yeah right and if a frog had wings it wouldn't hit its ass when it hopped."
"Its true thou when he drinks with your dad and mine after he has a few bottles he starts talking about how well your doing he says you're the best student he has had he is really proud of you….he just doesn't say it out loud."
"…..Bottles?...how much do our dads and old man ray drink?"
"Get serious I know you heard me."
"Yeah I did…..maybe he dose care in his own twisted way."
"Yeah he dose care in his own way."
"But why go thru the trouble he even got your dad to teach me some magic during the day?"
"Well….maybe he wants to make sure your prepared for the outside world….you do still want to see the world right?"
"Of course I do that hasn't changed when I first saw that world map in your house I couldn't believe how small our village is compared to the rest of the world it's so small and there is a great big world out there that just calls to me….I…I want to see it firsthand all of it to meet new people to talk with them and swap stories with them to have adventures and so much more."
Elisa smiles at me and repositions her fathered cap.
"That's good to hear."
She says it like I was meant to say it she then locks her hands behind her back and looks up at the horizon at the setting sun.
"Because darkness approaches."
"Hu what was that you said?"
"Oh it was nothing."
I didn't hear her but I let it go she was smiling so I didn't think much of it she then turns her head to me with a gentle look on her face.
"Just promise me one thing Solo."
I raise an eyebrow at her.
"Sure anything,"
She turns away from me again and looks back to the horizon.
"Promise me that when you do leave….that you will always remember where you came from….where you were born and raised…no matter where you may be or how far away you are….promise me that you will come back and at least visit once in awhile."
"You idiot I would have done that anyway."
"Solo…just promise me."
"….okay I promise man when did you get so serious."
She then turns to me with a pleading look on her face.
"But I'm always serious."
"Oh so that story about nymphs living in the forest that would grant any wish I wanted if I caught one that you told me when I was ten was the serious truth?"
"Yep all true."
"You lie on your throat and we both know it!"
"EEEEEKKKKKK! Help me Solo is trying to touch my no no spots!"
"Don't yell stuff like that people will hear you!"
I chase her around the village to make her stop yelling out her lies for all the village to hear by the time I get home It is night fall and mom and dad are already at the dinner table I set my training shield and sword down by the door before I sit at the table.
"Everything looks good mom."
"Thank you solo I was beginning to think you weren't going to be home for dinner."
"Guess old man ray didn't fell like feeding me to the wolves tonight."
The memory makes me shiver slightly till dad decides to say something.
"Well he could try to fill you bed with snakes again that sure was interesting."
I lose a little color in my face I think that was a repressed memory because u just remembered it dad laughs when he see's my horrified face.
"Haha relax Solo I told him never again."
"Thanks dad at least I won't half to relive one nightmare over again."
"You know he only makes your training hell so the outside world won't be."
I take a bite of bread.
"I know that but sometimes I think he is over doing it I mean geez it's like he is preparing me to save the world or something."
At that comment mom slightly spits out her drink and dad chokes on his food.
"Whoa easy there are you guys all right was It something I said."
"NO NOT AT ALL WHAT EVER GAVE YOU THAT IDEA!"
They say this at the same time there acting pretty weird now I wonder if it had something to do with what I said.
Mom found that this was a good time to change the topic.
"So what were you and Elisa doing?"
I look annoyed at that question.
"We were playing her version of tag it was sooo much fun."
Dad smirks at that.
"She really knows how to push your buttons doesn't she?"
I refuse to answer so I shovel more food I my mouth then mom throws her two gold coins in with dad.
"I think it's cute she would make a good wife to you one day."
Now it was my turn to spit out my food.
"PFFFFFFFFFT what the hell where did that come from!"
Mom just smiles and puts a hand to her cheek,
"awww you don't think so."
"NO! for one thing she's like a sister to me and second she has got to be five times my age and she use to change my diapers when I was a baby."
Dad just keeps smirking.
"So what's the problem."
I calm down and speak my mind.
"It's just….for every one hundred human years she ages just one year both physically and mentally so when I'm old and dying she will still be the way she is now…..I would be labeled a pedophile you know."
Dad seems to contemplate this for a moment.
"Well if anything she would be the pedophile."
I look at dad confused.
"You lost me there dad."
He exhales,
"Okay solo listen carefully you said she is at least five times older than you right?"
I nod,
"And that when your old she will still be young right?"
I nod,
"So don't you think that even when your old she will still be older that you by hundreds of years that would make her the pedophile don't you think?"
My eyes become round as dinner plates with this realization.
"Hay your right I'm not the pervert she is."
I jump out of my seat and pump my fist.
"Ha take that logic you won't bring me down with you this time."
Mom just giggles and speaks,
"Well I could have told you that solo."
I look at her in confusion.
"Told me what?"
Mom then looks at dad with a seductive look in her eye.
"That women can be perverted too."
"AWWW GROSS!"
Dad just laughs at my reaction.
"What's the matter solo did you think your mother and I don't like to have fun every once and awhile."
Dad then smacks mom on her ass to prove his point she moans a little.
"Stop that you demon's yeah that's it you're not my parents your demons that look like them."
I then pick up a bucket of water dip my hand in it and begin sprinkling water on them while chanting.
"THE POWER OF THE GODDESS COMPELS YOU! THE POWER OF THE GODDESS COMPELS YOU!"
Mom just laughs and shields herself with her apron dad on the other hand encourages me.
"That's it son expel those demons show them who's boss."
After dinner I go to my room and get ready for bed I take off my training cloths and put on my sleeping pants I look at my reflection in the bedroom mirror my long unkempt jade green hair extended to my upper back and was a complete mismatch to my sky blue eyes mom says I have a rugged look to me but I don't see it however I will admit my body is well toned for an eighteen year old, gaze at my birthmark in the mirror I always thought that it looked to neat to be a normal birthmark it was a perfect circle with what looked like a winged dragon in the center it was pretty cool I thought. I flop down on my bed and let sleep take me at last.
(Some distance away from the mountain village.)
A dark figure stands facing the mountain the sword at his side shakes violently in its sheath.
"He is there is he?"
He narrows his red eyes at the mountain.
"Good…at last I have found you,"
He grips the hilt of his sword,
"….dragon warrior,"
The words leave his mouth with a hint of venom in his tone in his focus on the mountain he does not notice the small goblin that walks up behind him till it speaks.
"My lord should we attack now while the chosen one sleeps?"
….,
"my lord?"
"…no we don't know if he is truly there I will move in tomorrow and scout the town to find him I will signal you when I do that will be when you attack."
The goblin is about to ask something when his master cuts him off.
"There is no fun in killing something that can't fight back besides I want him to suffer I want him to see everything he loves taken from him that is how he will truly die his physical death is just a bonus."
The goblin looks up at his master in admiration.
"Brilliant my lord the chosen human dose not disserve a clean death he must be broken first."
The dark figure then starts to walk.
"Wait for my signal then strike."
(The next morning in the mountain village)
I awoke to the sun on my face I did not want to get up but I roll out of bed in an attempt to wake up.
THUMP!
"…..well…that didn't help it just annoyed me."
I continue to lay there till dad opens the door to my room and sees me on the floor.
"I thought I heard something hit the floor I thought It might be something important but I see it was just my lazy son."
"Ha ha very funny dad."
Dad walks in the room and looks down at me.
"Are you going to lay there all day or what?"
"….I don't see any reason not to."
Dad walks over to the window picks up my scope and looks though it.
I sigh and turn on to my back.
"I just can't find the motivation to move."
While dad was looking through my scope he suddenly jumps.
"Whoa! Solo there is a group of girls bathing nude at the river!"
"WHAT!"
I instantly jump up and run to the window I jerk the scope out of my dad's hands and look through it to see….nothing. The river is empty dad then puts a hand on my shoulder.
"Your just full of energy now hu."
I glare at him over my shoulder,
"You tricked me,"
Dad just smiles at me,
"That's called parenting and best of all on all ages you just got to know what to say."
He pats my back,
"Now I'm going to work you need to get washed up and head over to Zell's place he wants to teach you a very powerful spell today and you know he does not like to be kept waiting."
Dad leaves my room as I just stand there,
"….hu you sly fox."
(A little later down by the river)
I am washing my hair at the river to prepare for my day when I hear someone walking toward me along the river I look up to see a man dressed in black armor and a black fur cape with a wicked looking long sword at his side, and his appearances was not human, he had long white hair pointed ears and sharp red eyes and boy did he look tough, I rise as he stops to acknowledge my presence.
"Good morning I haven't seen you before did you come up the mountain?"
He seems to think about how to answer me.
"Yes I did do you live in this village?"
I dry out my hair with a towel,
"All my life sadly enough,"
The stranger looks down at my chest and his eyes widen in surprise.
"Th…that mark," I look down at my birthmark I look back at him and hit my chest with a smile.
"Pretty cool hu its real too I was born with it believe it or not."
He looks at me like what I just said was unbelievable so I try to back up my words.
"I'm telling the truth I was born with it for real."
The strangers look of surprise changes to a confident smirk,
"Its fine I believe you…but your town wouldn't happen to have an inn I am rather tired and would like to rest for awhile."
"um yeah just right in town can't miss it."
The stranger then extends his hand to me.
"Psaro…,"
"…um..oh um Solo,"
I shake his hand, and his grin seems to get bigger for some reason.
"Well it's been a pleasure solo."
He turns toward the village and walks away,
Hu strange guy that psaro,
But for some reason I couldn't help but feel uneasy around him and the whole time he was hear my birthmark seemed to burn like fire that was strange.
(A few hours later at Elisa's house)
BOOOOOM! "AHHHHHHH!"
For the tenth time today I found myself face down on the floor after the new spell I was suppose to learn backfired on me and Elisa's father Zell wasn't being helpful.
"As much as I like to watch you blow yourself up you are not making any progress with the zap spell."
I strain myself to get on my hands and knees.
"I think I just figured out where Elisa gets her zero sympathy gene from."
I am now on my feet with my hands resting on my knees.
"Why would you bother teaching me this spell if I can't do it right?"
Zell crosses his arms and closes his eyes in thought,
"The zap seires of attack spells are among some of the most powerful spells one can learn it takes a special kind of person to even be able to conjure them the fact that you can even get it to backfire on you proves that you have the talent to use it you just need to learn how the zap spell alone can cause massive damage to anything with so much as a little evil in their hearts."
"Well if you could show me how it's done maybe I could find out what I am doing wrong."
Zell just looks at me.
"I can't,"
"hu…why not?"
"Because I can't use it…know one hear can."
…his words stun me I honestly don't know what to say.
"I never said learning these spells would be easy it will take time and effort on your part to use it and even more so to apply it in combat."
Zell takes a few magic scrolls from his cabinet and puts them in the bag I brought with me.
"Hear study these in your free time when ray isn't tossing you around the village you are dismissed for the day."
I shoulder my bag and leave the house where I run in to Elisa.
"You should tell your mom to put more fiber in his diet he needs to smile more and pull the stick out his ass."
Elisa just smiles at my comment,
"Well we are elves so we eat a lot of bread as it is there is not that much more room left for more fiber."
"I guess you're right."
Elisa looks me up and down,
"The zap spell?"
I nod and laugh nerviosly.
"yeah I have the talent I just got to learn how to use it."
Elisa smiles,
"Well you better learn soon or it will keep blowing up on you."
"Gotcha well I'll see you later then."
"Okay have a good lunch,"
I run back home for lunch mom is already getting everything when I walk in.
"Hay mom is lunch ready?"
I ask is I put my bag down,
"it will be I a minuet but could you do me a favor solo?"
"Sure what do you need?"
Mom hands me a wrapped lunch,
"Could you bring this to your father he forgot it this morning."
"He did…he never dose that I wonder what made him forget."
"There's no telling with that man he might actually be losing his mind solo."
"You mean he wasn't losing it before?"
"Oh you just bring your father his lunch."
"Yes mama,"
I turn on my heel to leave the house only to see the door fly open my dad is standing there with ray and dad looks scared.
"Dad what's wrong you look like you just saw a ghost."
Then mom steps in front of me and speaks.
"Darling what's wrong?"
Dad looks at mom with a very serious look.
"Honey…its time,"
Mom freezes at his words and after a moment I can see her visibly trembling,
Before I can ask what's going on mom spins around and embraces me in tight hug I can hear her sobbing in my shoulder ray then speaks to my dad,
"Gather everything he will need we need to be quick about this the monsters leader is hear and Zell and the other villagers won't hold him for long."
Dad then rushes upstairs.
"Ray what the hell is going on are we under attack?"
Ray just looks away from me,
"answer me dammit!"
Mom then makes me look at her while she is still crying,
"Solo you know I love you right?"
"Of course I do what is this all of a sudden?"
"Just listen to me solo do whatever ray tells you to do no matter what if the world is to be saved you must live you are our only hope."
"WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT!"
Dad then comes back down stairs with a large bag my sword and shield and a couple of spears he throws the bag to ray and one of the spears to mom ray picks up the bag I dropped on the floor and shoves it in to the larger bag mom then kisses dad.
"Protect our son my dreariest,"
"I will my love,"
Ray then grabs me by my shirt and pulls me out the house, the scene outside is pure madness everyone in town has a weapon and is heading to the front of the village I can see a fight taking place there I see Zell casting spells at the man I met at the river this morning psaro there fight is incredible but then psaro sees me our eyes meet for an instant and he gives me the most condescending smirk ever that is when I lose it I try to run to the fight but ray holds me tight and drags me with him dad all the while tagging along behind while mom joins the other villagers.
"let go of me ray I can fight with everyone I can do this together we can drive them from the village!"
"Stupid boy there not here to raid the village there hear to kill you!"
I look at ray in disbelief,
"…what do you mean…what did I do to them?"
Dad then speaks up,
"It's not what you did to them but rather what you well do,"
I look at dad in confusion,
"What does that mean?"
"There not trying to kill you because of who you are but rather who you will become,"
We stop at the bridge that leads to my training cellar ray lets go of me as dad turns me towards him and puts both hands on my shoulders.
"Solo listen to me your mother and I we…we are not your real parents your real parents died when you were born and your mother and I took you in as our own but solo when you were born your birthmark was an Oman of a coming darkness and whoever is born with it is destined to save the world from that darkness as the dragon warrior."
All of this information was too much to handle at once I couldn't even speak as my father pored his heart out to me.
"The whole village took an oath the day you were born we all swore that no matter what we would put our lines on the line to keep you safe"
My dad is crying at this point he then embraces me in a fierce hug and says to me,
"I have always loved you as my son never doubt that."
He kisses my for head and pulls away from me he then nodes to ray who starts to pull me by my shirt again I watch silently as my dad runs back up to the town to join the battle when we reach the cellar Elisa is coming out.
"Is it ready?"
"Yes I got it open."
I snap back to reality.
"Wait what?"
Ray turns to me, "you're going with Elisa and you're going to do exactly what she say's you hear me?"
"Like hell I am if you think I am going to let you guys fight without me your out of your mind's."
Ray looks at me hard.
"Your right what was I thinking."
WHAM ray fist makes contact with my stomach,
"wh…why?"
"You can't fight him not yet so for now you must live."
Ray holds me to him,
"Grow strong from this and stronger still in the future so that no one can beat you then come back with a vengeance my star pupil."
It was then I lost conciseness.
Ray hands solo to Elisa.
"keep him safe he is the world's last hope."
"I will do all I can don't worry."
Ray nodes and leaves for the battle Elisa then proceeds to bring solo to the cellar.
(Back in the village)
"You seem rather spent Zell do you want to rest?"
Psaro taunts Zell,
"When it comes to you I have more than enough magic to handle any monster."
"Ha-ha will see wont we?"
Psaro makes to strike Zell with his sword but I blocked by ray who holds him at bay.
"Oh….sir ray is that you? I almost didn't recognize you you've become so old."
"Psaro the manslayer never thought I would see you again."
"Well here I am same as ever…how is your eye by the way last I remember you lost it in our last fight."
ray narrows his eyes.
"Why don't you tell me you're the one who gave me this pretty scar after all."
Ray pushes back psaro and stands ready. Psaro's ear twitches then he smirks,
"Hu took them long enough,"
Ray and Zell both raise an eyebrow at this comment then Zell asks,
"Took who long enough?"
"Why the one thousand monsters I signaled to attack this village of course."
With these words the sky darkens and the ground shakes up the mountain pass hundreds of monsters race to the top, while hundreds more invade from the sky, psaro then speaks.
"Only the best for the chosen hero after all."
The villagers a visibly fearful but hold their ground there oath backing there resolve Ray and Zell are the only ones who keep their composure.
"Hay Zell,"
"yes ray,"
"do you regret anything?"
"…no...I regret nothing,"
"good because neither do I,"
"….it looks like this is the end of our stories ray,"
"sure looks that way but with the end of our story comes the beginning of his,"
"yes…his beginning… will happen and like those before him it will not end it will just grow even greater,"
"well you know what they say Zell hero's are made when we make a choices,"
"every one hear made a choices ray and because of it a great hero will be born."
(Back in the cellar in a secret room)
BAM! BAM! BAM! WHACK!
"Dammit let me out of here!"
Solo is awake again and is currently trying to knock down the door.
"That won't work solo my dad personally hexed that door it won't open till the time limit is up."
"And when is that exactly!"
"In about twelve hours,"
"DAMMIT! Why the hell is this happening if I could just-,"
But solo cuts his sentences short as he and Elisa both look up,
"Wh…what the hell is that,"
"It's an extremely large group of monsters but I have not felt one this large before and these monsters are no pushovers ether,"
"Well whatever they are they are making my birth mark go nuts it feels like its burning,"
Elisa stays silent for a few minutes and looks back up with a determined look,
"Solo look at me,"
I turn to face her only to see the palm of her hand in my face,
"sleep,"
with that one word I become very sleepy,
"Elisa what..what are you,"
I fall to the ground Elisa bends down next to me,
"I'm sorry solo I lied to you the truth is that this door could always have been open with a key,"
Elisa takes the key out of her dress pocket and places it in my hand she begins to cry as she speaks,
"sniff… I'm sorry but these monsters won't be satisfied until you are dead sniff...sniff so I will give them what they want."
Elisa then morphs into an exact likeness of myself I can't even speak now her spell is hitting me so hard all I can do is stare at her through my horrified eyes she then speaks to me in my voice.
"Don't worry my snooze spell will were off in a few hours by then everything will be over,"
She then smiles at me,
"Solo become a great hero and remember never forget this place and the happiness it brought you always remember who you are."
She then stands and walks out the door I am barely able to raise my hand to reach for her my eyes are beginning to shut then her final words fill my head.
"Solo…thanks for the memories…goodbye."
My eyes shut and sleep takes me but my heart is heavy with guilt all of this is happening because I am something I never knew I was how am I suppose to feel anything other than sorrow and guilt Zell, Ray, Mom, Dad, Elisa, everyone is going to die and it is all because….of me.
(Several hours later in the cellar)
Elisa's spell has worn off and I am walking back out of the cellar it is deathly quiet outside I can't hear anything but when I get outside I find out why it is because there is nothing left I survey the area as I walk through the village my eyes wide with horror the people that I grew to know and love are all now dead massacred torn to pieces all of them but when I reach the center of the village I am greeted by a site that I prayed was not true. My parents died in each other's arms their bodies barely touched, Zell died shielding his wife from what looked like fire, ray went down fighting numerous monster corpses were on the ground around him but his sword was broken in half it looked as if his throat was cut. But right there in the middle of the villages flower mound was Elisa still in my form with a stab wound to her heart and a smile on her face. While in death she smiled she died for me they all died for me, The rain would come down now and night sky came down hard the rain seemed to wash away my image from Elisa's body with that I came to my knees her fathered cap lay in front of me I gently pick it up and the memories hit me all at once the good, the bad, everything my whole life taken from me in a flash, and for the first time that day I cried I cried harder than I have ever cried in my whole life I would never see any of them again I would never speak with them, laugh with them cry with them nothing I just kept repeating the same thing over and over again in my head.
"It's all my fault, it's all my fault, it's all my fault, it's all my fault,…..NO!"
My head snaps sky ward as a second heart beat overlaps my own my birth mark starts to glow, an image of psaro appears in my head and my sorrow and guilt are replaced by massive amounts of anger and hate and it rises with each passing second my birthmark glows brighter my pupils dilate and become thin black slits, I can even feel my canines getting longer and sharper and soon the second heart beat matches my own until they become one my birthmark is glowing a brilliant electric blue and then time seems to come to a full stop the rain and all around me motionless.
"…roar"
"…what? Who said that?"
...your soul said that your dragon soul,…now roar and let the world know that you all hear let it know that you are going to avenge what happened hear let it know that you are here to protect and defend all from evil and that you won't let anything like this happen to anyone ever again…now…swear on your oath…the oath of the dragon warrior…..AND ROAR!
I close my eyes,
"….this…I…swear….,"
my eyes snap open,
RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
With that one mighty roar the clouds in the night sky parted halting the rain and the stares and moon shown a little brighter as magic bolts of electric blue erupted from my body, that night I was reborn not just as solo but as the dragon warrior.
(Miles away from the mountain village)
"Lord psaro look at the mountain,"
"I know it seems a dragon found its way there,"
"a dragon my lord?"
Many of the monsters are visibly scared psaro just keeps walking,
"yes a dragon in must have found the chosen heroes body,"
"thay react like that?"
"Yes dragons share a strong connection to the chosen hero,"
psaro stops and slightly turns,
"you did kill him didn't you?"
"Y…yes my lord I am one hundred percent positive."
Psaro begins to walk again,
"good now let's go,"
but psaro can't help but wonder why a dragon that strong would reacted so strongly to the hero's death.
A/N; well that's chapter one that turned out to be longer than intended but whatever people like long chapters in fanfiction this is my first story on this site so please don't bash me to bad I'm trying really hard so let me know what you think.
