The water dragon lowered his back "Get on my back the Khallis will come back" They wasted no time and climbed on its back, the water dragon swam away very fast. "Now, Seph, I know we have met multiple times but I never introduced myself, I am Tsunami," The dragon said. "What were those creatures?" Seph asked.
"Those were the Khallis"
Seph nodded, then noticed the waves were churning, there was something under there, something huge, way bigger than Tsunami. "Oh no" Tsunami said.
"What?" Seph asked.
"Sea serpent, they are way bigger than me,"
It looked like it was coming out of the waves. It was long and slender, it looked like a snake covered in slime, it was about as long as the Alganirian mountains are tall. It was levitating out of the water, its body slightly coiling, then it's black eyes settled on Tsunami. "Tsunami, Mahs Draco Yorinius" Seph bit his lip, he was speaking Draco language, Seph couldn't speak Draco.
The serpent laughed then said "Tsunami, what are you doing in these cursed waters?"
"We were going to go to the doomwood forest"
"Go no further, the Khallis infest the shores- you will have no chance of survival"
"We must" Tsunami insisted
"Suit yourself, no matter"
The serpent went under the water, they were close to the island where the doomwood forest was- and into the territory of the shadow lord. Serph and Mystica soared above Tsunami, the size of the sea beast made the two young dragons feel strangely small. Serph knew they would have a slim chance of getting across the shores.
Serph was thinking about it until Mystica started talking. "Serph what are you doing?" she asked.
Seph realized he was veering sideways "oh what the hell?" he said.
"Not falling asleep, are you?" she laughed, then her voice changed to serious "are you?"
Serph shook his head and said "no"
"You seem to be.."
Serph was about to protest when a huge gust of wind nearly made him fall out of the sky. "Seems like a storm coming" she said grimly.
"No way, there couldn't have been one"
"There is one coming"
"No, I'll prove there isn't a storm"
Serph flew up as high as he could, "See? Nothing wrong..."
Serph couldn't finish, a bright light lit up the dead sky, thunder crashed the sky, the wind blew Mystica over, flying upside down. Serph was falling, struck by lightning, into the waves.
The thunder knocked the wind out of Mystica. It took a few moments before she remembered how to breathe. She turned over and flew towards the falling frost dragon. Serph wondered if he was going to die before or after he hit the water, either way, he had no chance of survival now. He looked over to see Mystica zooming towards him, and he looked down towards his fate and seen Tsunami skimming the surface of the water, barely disturbing it at all.
Serph landed in the water, he sunk deeper and deeper until he was no longer visible underwater. Tsunami dropped off everyone at the beach and disappeared in the water. The water dragon searched under where Serph fell, Tsunami went right down to the sandy bottom, he had clear vision underwater, so if Serph was here he could not fail to miss him. But Serph wasn't there, he had vanished. Tsunami swam back up to the surface to tell them the grave news.
