The dragons have arrived at the capital and the Eclipse has failed to fire. How will Alex and the other wizards handle this?

Chapter 1 Start

All the wizards in the area started firing there magic at the Dragons that were getting closer with each passing second. Alex watched the dragons and knew as soon as he saw the sheer number and size of most of the dragons that this battle's odds were against them.

"What's wrong with the Eclipse Cannon?" Alex muttered to himself. He made a small cyclone of blood surround him, and teleported to the edge of the crowd. Alex looked around and saw the palace.

"That must be where the cannon is." Alex started to run towards it, hoping the other wizards would be able to hold them the dragons off for a little so he could see why the Eclipse didn't fire.

"Where are you going?!" Alex looked over his shoulder and saw Lisa was following him

"You don't have to follow me." Alex told her.

She came to Alex's side "Where are you going? You should be helping with the dragons."

"I'm going to see why the Eclipse Cannon didn't fire. If someone stopped it from firing we can defeat the person that prevented it and we can then fire it."

"But you're leaving the others behind!" Lisa shouted.

"I'm leaving them behind yo try and help them." Alex said not turning to her, concentrating on his path.

"Well I'm coming with you then." Lisa said "And don't try to change my mind."

"I wasn't planning on it. I know not to try and change your mind once it is set on something." Alex heard a roar and looked up just in time to see a black blast of energy flying towards him. Alex stopped and moved quickly, pushing Lisa out of the way, along with himself out of the way and a few seconds later a black dragon landed, it's scales as black as midnight and it's eyes the color of the moon.

"I missed..." It growled "So why are you two humans running away? Don't think you are strong enough to fight dragons?"

Alex get up and looked at it "I already killed one dragon in my life. We were just going to make sure out friends were safe."

"A wimp like you killed a dragon? That must have been one weak dragon."

Lisa stood up "Do you know who you are talking to? We are both Blood Dragon Slayers!"

"Blood Dragon Slayers? This should be fun." It said letting out another blast of black energy.

"Blood Dragon Shield!" Alex formed the shield in front of him instantly and nodded at Lisa as smoke rose from the Black Dragon's attack. Alex allowed the shield to disappear and the dragon hadn't moved.

"You seem to be able to defend well, but how about attacking? Wait...there was two of you...where's the other one?" The black dragon turned just in time to see Lisa ready an attack.

"Blood Dragon's Roar!" Lisa shot the beam at that Dragon and it took flight.

"You thought you could hit me with that?"

"Blood Dragon's Roar!" Alex had readied it when the dragon had turned to Lisa and shot it upwards, hitting the dragon in the chest area, taking it from the skies and into the ground. It got to it's feet and it's eyes locked on Alex.

"I'll tear your body to pieces!" It ran at Alex with impressive speed.

"You really think I'm just going to wait?" Alex asked as he got ready to move, but the Dragon knew that and let out a gust of wind with it's wing, knocking Alex of balance, give the dragon enough time close the gap and barrel into Alex, crushing him between it's body and a building. The dragon moved and grabbed Alex's arm in it's jaws. Alex winched and looked at the dragon and then smirked. The Dragon suddenly pulled back.

"Hot! What the hell did you do!?"

Alex kept his smirk as he looked at his arm, blood running down it "Burning Blood. Makes the users blood as hot as magma. Lisa! Finish this!"

"Right! Blood Satellite!" She shouted.

"Dragon Slayer Secret Art: Blood Slayers Heart!" Alex readied the beating orb and aimed at the dragon, shooting it and just as the red beam came down the orb connected to. The dragon had no time to let out a sound as the force from both attacks reduced it's body to nothing. Alex looked at Lisa and she smiled, walked up to and kissed him.

"That wasn't so hard."

"You kiss me right after we kill a dragon...you have some odd timing." Alex said turning to his target "Anyway it is easier with two Dragon Slayers, now come on." Alex started running again.

Alex and Lisa stopped at the entrance to the palace.

"I guess the fastest way to get to the Eclipse would be to run through." Lisa said.

"Yeah. Let's hope no guards try to stop us." Alex said as he started to walk through the hallway.

"Do you think we have a chance to win if the cannon can't fire?" Lisa asked him.

"I don't think so. There are 5 times more dragons then wizards in the city. We need to even the numbers out a little."

"So if the cannon doesn't work...you think we're all going to die?"

"I never said that. I just said I don't think we can win the war."

"What so people will just go into hiding underground?"

"Calm down Lisa. I'm sure the magic council will try and help once they realize what's happening."

"What if they don't realize until-" Alex put his arm out as they rounded a corner. Someone was standing a few feet in front of them. It was a male with medium length brown hair, and sunglasses covering his eyes. He wore a black scaled jacket with a red shirt underneath, and had plain black pants and shoes on. He looked to be about 20-25 years old.

"I see. This is the time I got here." The man said, his voice sounding familiar.

"Who are you?" Lisa asked.

"Friend or Foe?" Alex asked right after Lisa.

"Who I am should not worry you. As for if I'm a friend or a foe...well I would have to guess since you two are heading for the Eclipse, I am your enemy, but an ally of the Dragons."

"How did you know where we were headed?" Alex asked, knowing this guy was a threat "And you're helping the dragons?"

"I have my ways and yes I am here to help the dragons."

"Then it looks like we have to fight then." Lisa said getting ready to attack.

"Lisa and Alex, first and second student of Sanguis, the Blood Dragon."

Alex and Lisa went speechless for a moment.

"How do you know that about us, and our names?!"Lisa demanded. Alex looked at the man and thought he looked slightly familiar, but couldn't place who it was.

"I have my ways." He repeated "Now move. You two can't hope to defeat me."

"We won't know until we try!" Alex shouted rising his hand "Blood Lance!" The lance shot out and the man stood there, and the moment before it hit a black liquid came from his arm, blocking the attack.

"What the...is that-" Alex started.

The man smiled "I'm surprised you haven't figure it out yet." The man took off his glasses, revealing blue eyes and a scar over the left one. Alex's hand moved to his face before he suddenly realized who the man was.

"You're..." Alex muttered "No...it can't be..."

"Finally figured it out Alex? I am you from the future!"
