Chapter 4: Enter the Dragon Emperor

Previously, the Lion Temple is attacked by the Shadow Tribes and there, our heroes met the true leader of the enemy...

"Alright Dragemperor, first of all, tell us why did you or how dare you attack us?" Lagravis demanded as he walked towards him.

"Because first of all in ancient times, the dragon tribe used to be the rightful rulers of Chima until your tribe replaced us. Now we have come to reclaim what is rightfully ours."

"I don't believe any of this history. All I believe is you've come here to destroy us!"

"And you have the guts to oppose and defy me!"

"We shall see once I defeat you and write history about your embarrassing defeat!"

"We shall see indeed." Instantly, both leaders drew their weapons and clashed against each other. Everybody from both sides cheered as it went on until Dragemperor stopped to charge up some power. "What's that?" Lagravis wondered until, "Skull blast!" the dragon emperor fired dark skull-like energy blasts at him. "Dodge it Dad!" Laval called out. He got the message avoiding the blasts. "Is that all you've got?" He taunted. All he did is smile saying: "Seriously, this is only a fraction of my power." They then continued to clash for a while.

2 hours later...

Both fighters were severely wounded and had little energy left. Therefore, "This should take care of him!" declared Lagravis as he took out his fire chi and powered up in front of everyone. "Yeah! That dragon should feel the power of our fire-chi!" Laval exclaimed with excitement. However, "No, The real fight begins for him!" Tormak noticed as Dragemperor is still smiling and now he's laughing pretty hard with the shadow tribes joining in. "What's so funny?" asked Lagravis. "I've seen it all. Your power and skill is no match for me when I have this!" Suddenly, Dracrosis stepped forth using his magical staff to levitate a fire chi! "What! But how..." all Lagravis could do is stammer. "Hehheheh, this is only the tip of the iceberg." added Dragemperor as Dracrosis handed him the fire chi. with it, he all of a sudden unleashed dark power on the fire chi! It circled around the orb and suddenly a dark energy was emitted unleashing an explosion!(Just like a nuke bomb. Oh yeah!)

As the smoke cleared, "What just happened?" Cragger asked as everybody went to check out the whole scene. Lagravis coughed a bit, looked up to see Dragemperor holding the chi but this time, it's no longer a fire chi. It is only a dark orb in his possession. "What did you do?" he asked in horror. "The real fun begins now and ever for behold, this is the dark power inside this DARK CHI!" Dragemperor declared raising it in the air as the shadow tribes cheered louder than ever. he then put it in his chest and he unleashed the darkness in him. Lagravis was like it's unbelievable to him but soon enough, the dragon emperor formed a large dark sphere in his hands and, "SOUL BOMB!" he fired it at Lagravis hitting him and sending him crashing into the Lion Temple. All were mesmerized for a moment until Laval consumed with anger over what happened charged at him. "YOU"RE GONNA PAY FOR BLASTING MY DAD!" But Dracrosis stepped forth to protect his leader by whacking him off. "You shall not oppose the dragon emperor! Doom Bolt!" he then fired dark bolts of energy at him but Li'ella deflected and dodged them as she ran to protect Laval. "Laval, you okay?" He nodded saying: "Yeah but..." That's when Tormak looked at Dragemperor. "He's growing in dark power when he puts the dark chi in him." He thought. Then taking command, "Everybody! Fall back to the walls! Attack from there and that way we have a chance to repel the enemy!" All the animal tribes obeyed gathering their forces back to the walls. "What shall we do my lord?" asked Dragonis. "Don't worry, do what you can to reclaim what is rightfully ours, show no mercy and speaking off which, has anyone seen Dravastator?" That made all the shadow tribes confused as they looked around to see any sign of him.

Back there...

"POW! KICK! WHAM! SLAM! "I'm gonna break your wings weakling!"

"That you can try but you'll never my friend."

"Is that so? You're too weak to fight me! I'm the strongest dragon that has ever lived!"

"And much more slower as expected my friend."

"Shut up and I'll smash you and tear you into pieces and after that, I'll roast you into raven meat! My favourite food!"

"You're 10 times more insulting and racist my friend."

"So are you! Black, irritating and annoying is your thing!"

Forget about that as we move on to the Lion Temple...

From the walls, everybody opened fired at the enemy and some of them outside the walls all became stone statues when they tried to fall back in the temple. While Tormak takes charge of the battle, Laval and Li'ella searched for Lagravis until they found him unconscious at the hall where the chi is being produced from the waters of Mount Cavora. "Dad! You okay?" Laval asked him as he helped him up. Coughing a bit, "I'm fine my son. Now listen carefully-", "I know what you mean but-", "Seriously, Laval! Now listen, go to my throne and open the left panel on the left armrest. Press the sky blue button quickly!" Laval wasn't sure why but Li'ella nodded at him so he did as told and soon enough after pressing the button, the throne vibrated rapidly and emitted a powerful force field shielding the entire temple. All the animal tribes cheered over the new defence. "I somehow made a few modifications and upgrades for our tribe." explained Lagravis as the 2 lions helped him up and they headed for battle.

Outside, "S-s-s-seriously? Not even a puny s-s-s-shield cannot s-s-s-stop us from conquering this-s-s temple!"

"Serpendusa iz right! Let's break in by force! Yeah!" said Sharking.

"Agreed indeed!" agreed Hellberus.

However, "Wait!" The leaders stopped and turned to Dragemperor. "Leave it to my flagship. I'm going to test a superweapon installed in it. Therefore, I want all armies to back off because the weapon is deadly and critical enough to blast a large area which can devastate everything even us if we don't keep our distance." Now that he said it, they complied and after a few minutes. "Dragonis do you read me?" from the Dark Tartarus, "Yes my Lord, is it time?" He smiled and answered: "Initiate." Now that he said it, Dragonis called out: "All dragons, fire the Armageddon cannon!"

From the Lion Temple, "What's the battlecruiser doing?" asked Lavertus as the metallic dragon head on the ship is powering up with it's eyes glowing dark." Eglor studied it and gasped. "According to my calculations." he said as he panicked. "There's a hidden superweapon on the ship. BRACE YOURSELF!"

At that very moment, the battlecruiser fired a dark and purplish energy beam that was so powerful it broke the force shield creating a powerful and devastating explosion. When the smoke cleared, "Now is the time to FEEL OUR WRATH! CHAOS BEAM!" yelled Dragemperor as he fired a powerful and devastating dark bolt that destroyed the walls easily. Moreover, some chi spilled out. "Perfect timing." hissed Serpendusa as she picked up a chi and turned into dark chi and powered up. Sharking and Hellberus did the same thing likewise their armies. Due to that, the animal tribes are being overwhelmed by the enemy as the fighting continues...

As time passes...

Around the battlefield, there are lots of statues and wrecked vehicles and aircraft. In the air, the enemy had finally ruled the skies and somehow, the fight between Razar and Dravastator is still ongoing with many animals watching it(thus, they are not involved in battle but all they do is cheer for the fight, eat popcorn and drink soda and bet more money ironically) and finally at the ruined Lion Temple, Laval, Cragger, Eris, Worriz, Gorzan, Rogon, Bladvic, Lagravis, Eglor, Wilhurt, Crominus, Li'ella, Tormak, Lavertus, Lundor, Sir Fangar, Stealthor, Vardy, Maula and her 2 sons and finally Icebite are the only ones remaining while they are being surrounded by the shadow tribes. "It's all over. All that is left for all of you is defeat and your demise awaits." Dragemperor declared as he decided to finish them all himself. All hope was lost until Rogon all of a sudden stated. "Something's coming our way." All looked at him when suddenly outside the temple...

"Hey Sharkuras, ya hear something?"

"Ya Shardarim, it sounds like..."

The next thing they knew, "BOOM!KABOOM!BOOM!KABOOM!" Explosions of fire rained down the sky as vehicles exploded and many shadow warriors scattered from the explosions.

From the Temple. "IMPOSSIBLE! Where are the explosions coming from?!" demanded Dragemperor as he turned to the animals. "I think we've got our answer. Right everyone?" asked Laval. All agreed as the fiery explosions continued on...

Help has arrived but there's more to it. Chapter 5 coming soon...
