I sincerely apologise for not posting for a few days. I was at the Snowy Mountains for three days for a holiday and I EXPECTED that there would be an internet connection in our dorm but sadly, there wasn't. I was not able to ready any new reviews or anything like that cause of no connection. Anyway, it's great to be back and ready to write! This chapter is my LONGEST out of all chapters that I have ever written. I hope you all enjoy!
Chapter Ten: Emerald Dragon's Fall
Frost's POV
With a heart filled with courage and hope, I slammed the wooden, smooth floor of the wagon that we all sat in, creating a battle plan as Drago was on the look out for any hostile movement around us. We where on the outside of a moderately large town, filled with many wooden and bricked houses with their thin, bricked chimneys exhaling out jet black smoke, making me believe that the interior of those houses are more than just families and furniture. Yes. There's no way simple firewood would give off such a black smoke. Everyone stared at me with widened eyes, all ears to what I was about to say. I took in a deep breath of the cold, still, motionless air around us, inflating my stomach by the slightest before I began to give out the orders with a low, serious tone.
"Alright ladies and gentlemen, this is the plan, so keep your ears opened to what I'm about to say and make sure that it burns into your minds", I said and exhaled out half of my remaining oxygen, making my stomach retract slightly as I blinked and looked at each and every one of them in the eye with my dark brown ones that shone in the morning sun that ever so slowly, rose in the light blue sky.
"We're all ears", Frosty said with a strong, confident tone in her sweet voice and gave a firm nod that bounced her long, black hair from behind her.
"Alright, there are four generals. They are nothing like normal goblins and they will NOT give any remorse whatsoever. Further more, we must all stick together for this to work with the exception for a few", I explained and gave a quick glance to Sindy and Sino, making them both spark up in confusion as their eyes widened. "Sino, you'll engage with the enemies from a distance. Find a good vantage point and snipe them. Sindy, you'll assassinate the hoards from behind as we fight them head on", I said in the tone of a leader. They both gave me a firm nod and a slight yelp before I clenched my left hand, grasping tightly onto my black handgun as I fidgeted with the black, carbon fibre trigger with my index finger. "The rest of us, we'll go all out. Sapphire, use your bow at first then attack with you swords along with your two sisters", I said, making her blink and nod twice, causing her long, turquoise hair to bounce from behind her and slap against her back as it collapsed. "Are we good?", I asked and looked around the wagon, feeling my heart begin to race due to anxiety, knowing that anything could happen at any time. They blinked and tensed themselves, looking as brave as war fighters before they all gave me a nod simultaneously.
"Yeah!", They all said in choir, making me smile slightly as I felt my left hand begin to tingle like something was flowing into it. I blinked just as a soothing breeze of cold air flushed us from the right, making our hair and clothing flutter to the left, giving us an intimidating effect.
"Alright", I said and placed my right hand to the floor as I pushed myself up, grunting quietly before and took in a deep breath of the cold, arctic air, feeling more alive than ever before and feeling like I could take anything head on. "Today, we make history!", I exclaimed and spun around, making my jet black coat lift up slightly as I smiled at the entrance of the hell hole, ready to conquer anything and everything in sight. My blood warmed up, making me blink before I bent my knees slightly and hopped out of the wagon, making it shake and rattle to the sudden movement before I landed on the green grassy ground, dampening my shoes as I stared at the large iron gate that looked rusted and had brown here and there. Sadly, these goblins have no idea what security is. Haha! The only thing that held it up in place where five, long, rough strands of rope that where attached to the top and where as vulnerable as a turtle on it's back side. The entire area was encased with a large bricked wall that was painted in paper white and had black hand smudges around some places, indicating that there has probably been an attempted escape or a brutal beat down. Dammit, just thinking about it makes me want to rush in and let loose of all hell upon the goblins.
The wooden wagon squeaked and moaned to the sudden movements from behind me as multiple loud scrunches of grass emitted from left and right with some loud grunts of their landing, making me smile vividly as took the first step forward, crunching the green, damp grass with my right boot.
"We won't lose...", I whispered to myself and blinked, raising my right hand over my head and slowly grasped onto the black handle of my two handed sword. Exzarca. "And I won't be dying here...", I added and gazed down at my dark, slender shadow, intimidating and mimicking my every moves before I looked down to my left hand, staring at the jet black handgun that had red writing on it that read "Oblivion" on either side in fine italics. I felt slightly dizzy upon staring at it for a fixed moment, making me look back up at the huge, rusty iron gate that obstructed our only path for entrance. "Obstacles are meant to be brought down", I whispered to myself as a surge of power began to mix with my blood as my heart pumped it to every inch of my body, gradually increasing my heart rate to three times as fast.
With courage and hope, I tightened my right hand around the handle of my legendary blade and pulled it clean out with a loud scrape of metal that made my ears fold down. But I resisted it with all my might and slashed the air once diagonally from left to right with excruciating speed before I pulled it to my right and held out my left, firm hand in front of me, pointing the gun at the rope to the far left with a devilish grin. Time for a grand entrance! I grit my teeth and pulled the trigger with my left index finger, making my left hand recoil back very slightly as the bullet sliced its way through the rope, making the weak gate lean ever so slightly to the right with a loud, scraping moan that I resisted with all my heart.
"We can't let you have all of the fun", A familiar voice said from my left, making me pull back my left arm back to my side as I turned to face the voice with a confused look. It was Star, smiling at me as she held a small knife in her right hand and walked up beside me to my left, staring into my eyes as the grass scrunched softly from under her weight. A cold, chilling surge of arctic air blew from the right, making all of our hairs dance with the green grass as the wind whistled a calming tune that rung in my grey cat-like ears soothingly. "After all, we ARE a team", She said and turned forwards with a serious look to her face as she stared at the rope that was now the furthest to the left. "The first step for Wish", She whispered to herself, barely audible due to the whistling air that still continued to blow against us like a highway of invisible spirits before pulling back her right hand behind her head as she leaned backwards on her left leg. I blinked and wondered to myself if such a throwing technique would be as accurate and devastating as a the technique I currently use... Let's find out. With an extremely silent grunt, she grit her her white jaws together tightly before quickly planting her right foot onto the ground as she leaned forward with lightning speed and immediately flicked her right arm forwards, letting go of the small, steel blade. "Bullseye", She whispered as we all watched the blade slice clean through the rope, causing it to lean even more to the right with a louder moan of metallic pain than the previous.
"One shot, one kill", Sino said from my right before suddenly pulling the trigger of her sniper riffle, emitting an ear splitting boom with white smoke seeping out of the muzzle like a soul, happily leaving the earth. I cringed and blinked to the excruciatingly loud noise and forbid myself to back down cause of it. Anyway, I think our enemies might do us a pleasant favour of opening the gates for us, since there's no way that they would turn a blind eye towards such a loud sound. The middle rope snapped off in an instant, making the rusty iron gate lean even more to the right as it emitted a terrible cry of pain and mercy. "I'll add a muzzle silencer once I get to my vantage point. Make sure that you dance around my bullets", Sino joked and pulled back the black handle on the right side of her grey, oversized sniper riffle, emitting a solid scraping sound as a copper bullet shell flung out from the right, falling onto the grass with complete silence. "And make good use of explosive materials. I'll do the rest", She stated and pushed the black handle forward, emitting a soothing 'cling' sound, indicating that there's another bullet inside of the barrel. I don't know why, but shooting with the Oblivion doesn't seem to irritate my ears for some unknown reason. Not even logic can solve that one out...
"Frost, get ready", Drago said from behind me. I nodded as I stared at the iron gate, looking as if at any moment in time it could come tumbling down like a single domino. A massive domino to be precise. "I'll do my best to protect Serenity and others that are with her", he said before sighing loudly, causing my heart to thump twice as fast, feeling like it could just jump out and splatter against a wall at any point in time.
"Yeah", I simply said, forming a warm smile on my face before I gave another firm nod, still staring at the gate that suddenly began to shudder like it was going to be raised... I'm more than ready to engage in all out combat against these pests! I will show them no mercy! My hands clenched tightly on the handles of my weapons as I grit my teeth in courage, willing to fight till my entire body and soul are destroyed... I will not LOSE! "Get ready!", I yelled out and leaned slightly forward as my right leg shifted forwards, monitoring my balance as I carefully watched the gate begin to vibrate roughly as if it was creating it's own earthquake.
"I'll take care of this", Sapphire said from behind me right before I heard some string tension, then a split second later, two arrows whizzed by the right of my face, missing me by mere inches as they spiralled straight towards the last remaining ropes. Instantaneously, the ropes flailed for freedom as the massive, grey iron gate fell into the ground like a rock, making me blink blankly as I smiled devilishly, thinking of a diabolical plan. Yes... That'll work out just perfectly!
"Go now!", I commanded with a voice filled with courage and hope before I launched myself forwards with lightning speed, crunching the green grass with every step I took towards the fallen gate and leaped at it, knocking it with my right shoulder painfully hard, but I ignored the pain as it became my friend instead of my worst enemy. "Suffer!", I exclaimed with rage just as the giant metallic gate suddenly leaned to the right, indicating that my plan had indeed, worked out like a bloody perfect charm!
With haste, I jumped back and watched as it began to pick up it's pace, quickly toppling over inwards onto the hoard of goblins from behind. Dust and the smell of foul blood kicked up into the air due to the tremendous force of the iron gate smashing against the fragile earth and crushing the very begins of our enemies. I grit my teeth softly, as I squinted my eyes slightly to reduce the risk of having the dust to irritate my vision, ultimately making me vulnerable. Too bad that won't be happening! Immediately, I blindly raised my left hand to my mouth and gnawed at the base of my thumb with my sharp, white glistening teeth and sucked on the blood. This is survival of the fittest! And I will NOT lose!
I pulled back my blood soaked left hand back to my side and quickly swung horizontally with my mighty two handed blade, that was ironically held in my right, dominant hand. The brown smoke immediately was torn apart from my deadly swipe, allowing the wind to kidnap it with no problem whatsoever, allowing me to open my eyes widely to see a hoard of fifteen goblins standing right before us just behind the tip of the grey, rusted iron gate that had killed many of them to our favour. I chuckled upon seeing their disgusting, sneering faces filled with black smudges of carbon and dirt mixed with a lethal dose of hostility. They made horrible groaning noises, trying to induce some sort of fear into my very being but obviously, they failed by a long shot. Speaking of long shot... A bullet just sliced the air from my far right, making me take in a deep breath of the cold, calming air that surrounded us like an invisible mist of silence and dread... Sending a quick chill up my spine that was diagnosed with a healthy dose of adrenaline... Two of the fifteen goblins had their brains blasted out like a party cracker, sending missiles of pink, curly chunks of their insides along with a surge of their dark red blood floating majestically with their brains. It splashed onto the others, making them look as cranky as ever for a good three seconds before at once, they all let out their battle cry and raised their sharp, jagged blades high up their heads before charging at us in a moderately slow pace, causing me to chuckle.
I sighed and shook my head quickly to regain my composure as I left out my left arm forwards with my index finger ready to pull on the carbon fibre trigger, making one of the goblin's eyes widened, knowing his inevitable fate... With a devilish grin plastered across my bloodthirsty face, I pulled the trigger. A loud booming sound was immediately released from my very gun as I fought back the weak recoil with ease, watching the bullet spiral through the air, leaving a trail of heat and blur as it made it's way towards the foe with extreme speed... The silver bullet tore through the flesh and bone in between his eyes as blood and pink fleshy bits of his putrid brain splattered out from the back of his disfigured head. The last thing I heard, was his pitiful cry for mercy... But did they EVER show that to us!? I will not hold back against these creatures of the damned!
My heart began to race. Beads of sweat began trickling down my forehead as the goblins where about three meters away from me. Instantly, I seethed back my jet black pistol into a hidden pocket from within my eternal black trench coat. Using my pistol won't be necessary against eleven goblins. After all, if more intend to come, then I'll have to add the icing to the cake.
"Burn in hell!", Sapphire exclaimed from my left loudly as she ran up towards the goblins with both her hands clenched tightly onto the black handle of her white, flame engulfed blade and yelled out her battle cry, sending an excruciatingly fast horizontal slash that just BARELY missed my face when she followed through. I stumbled backwards and gasped to how bloody close she was to beheading me for good, thus ending my life in the blink of an eye. Blankly, I blinked and stared at the goblins in awe as they all stood still, motionless like time had stopped. "Clean slice", She said with a smirk. Just like that, the goblins top half of their bodies slid off their bottom as their entrails and boned spilt out like a bag of goodies, chocolate and candy... Dammit... My body reacted completely different to my mind. My stomach turned like a laundry machine whilst my mind admired it like it was a piece of art... I haven't said or thought of this for a while until now but, I think I MAY be slightly insane... Heck, sometimes I don't even know.
"That's the first lot, now we go in and kick some serious rear!", Frosty cheerfully said.
I let out a quiet sigh as I snapped out of the small trance that held me for a split second, staring down the the pile of dead, disfigured bodies of the goblins in disgust before cringing and looking up ahead. Wait a second... Something's up... I stabbed my sword into the ground vertically in front of me and let go of the black leather handle.
"Let's get slayin'!", Star exclaimed with enthusiasm before walking past me from my right.
"Wait", I quickly said and grasped onto her soft, left shoulder with an outstretched arm, causing her to stop abruptly and turn around to face me with a confused look on her face.
"Hmm?", She hummed curiously and looked at me in the eye worriedly as I too, looked into her silver eyes that glowed vividly in the morning light. "Is something the matter?".
"Hold up... Goblins attack all together like rats, am I correct Ruby?", I asked Ruby without breaking eye contact with Star, making her flush red slightly before blinking blankly, disrupting our furious battle of tug of war.
"Well, that IS a fact but...", Ruby said and paused unexpectedly, kindly granting the invasion of a brief silence that lasted for two seconds, only to be broken by a warm sigh that suddenly slipped from my damp lips that where in a neutral position.
"Frost, I think I get what you're saying", Chaos said from behind as a few scrunches of the green grass accompanied his voice before stopping abruptly like a red light was just flashed on. "They all must've retreated back and left the prisoners inside the place. But from previous experiences in the realm of insanity, I'm almost certain that the four generals of Charcoal are guarding the interior and the FrostBittens", He explained, making me blink before sliding my right hand off of Star's left shoulder, collapsing back to my side as I took in a deep breath of the cold air silently and looked away from Star's pretty eyes.
"Your right...", I whispered to myself, not caring if anyone heard me or not. "Absolutely correct", I sighed out uneasily, making everyone stare at me for a fixed moment before suddenly, an a giant shadow was cast over us like a blanket of darkness, causing me to blink and shake my head in confusion.
Strange, there aren't any clouds today... Then what could it be? Slowly, I looked up into the light blue sky to see a light green, shining figure just shoot out a molten fireball of death right at us all from it's large uncanny jaws of doom. Dammit! I knew that the dragon wasn't dead!
"Run!", Sindy yelled out in pure shock and fear as everyone but me jumped to the side in hopes to avoid the flaming fireball that spiralled towards me like a second sun, making my eyes glow in anger. With my teeth clenched onto one another like cold hearted rivals and the courage to fight back, I pried out my sword from the ground and sent a devastating uppercut with my very blade, completely slicing the ball of fire in half as it faded into white, transparent steam that resembled a freed spirit. Dammit, that was too close for bloody comfort! Argh! An immense burning sensation surged into my very arms, causing me to stumble backwards and nearly trip over the heels of my jet black boots. Bloody hell! I can't believe that I survived a two hundred degrees inferno! Damn, I must be the luckiest person on earth!
"Frost Richtofen!", Someone called out my name with a maniacal laughter from high above, sounding like it was emitting from within the very emerald dragon itself, sending nerve racking chills down my spine as I desperately tried to comprehend what on earth was going on with widened eyes. "Haha! Looks like Lord Charcoal was indeed correct about you coming here. But he did NOT expect to see so many friends of yours to come to help you", The voice said just as the white, distorted smoke disappeared drastically into to the very thin air, causing me to stare deeply at the large, light green dragon as it hovered in the air, beating down both it's wings like massive fans. The engine of the dragon basically and what gives them the movement advantage in fights. Once those come off, then it's as vulnerable as a kitten... meaning that it still is very agile and speedy. Dammit brain, thanks for making it look a lot better!
"Whoever you are, show yourself!", Chaos yelled out angrily as he too stared up at the glowing green dragon that shimmered in the light majestically in an amazing yet terrifying manner.
"Foolish FrostBitten scumbag, do you really think that I would show myself to someone as lower classed as you? Frost Richtofen deserves the honours to to say that! After all, he'll be dead before he could even swing his puny two handed blade!", The voice from high above said, making me grit my teeth painfully hard as I narrowed my eyelids slightly. So he's come for me huh? Very well then, I'll just have to take to take him out myself without any mercy whatsoever!
"Over my dead body!", Milk exclaimed angrily as she stared up at the glistening light green dragon with both her white jaws grinding against one another like lifelong rivals. "There's no way I would EVER let you touch Frost Richtofen!".
"Milk!", I exclaimed as I looked away from the dragon swiftly and looked right at Milk with a serious look, causing her to growl quietly like she somehow knew what I was going to say. "You all go and rescue the others while I take this dragon on myself!", I commanded with a strong, solid voice like a leader.
They all hesitated and gave me looks of anger to what I had just said. Obviously, I knew that facing this dragon wouldn't be a walk in the park but this is a good opportunity to buy them as much time as possible to save Serenity and the rest. After all, he's after me, not anyone else.
"Frost", Chaos said and walked up to me quickly as the green grass scrunched from under him, looking at me with a concerned face before he stopped right in front of me. "For the sake of everything, don't die...", He whispered as he placed a warm, friendly hand onto my right shoulder, making me loosen up from my burning spirit. "Cause you'll hurt us all in the heart and scar it for all of eternity. Good luck Frost and make sure that you know what you're doing", He warned in a soothing tone, sounding almost as if he was about to burst into tears of pure sadness.
Damn... I'm carrying not only the burdens of this continent, but also the burden's of my friends... I sighed and widened my smile before gently taking off his hand from hid right shoulder. Blankly, he stared at me and blinked once before I gave him a firm nod of confidence and hope, still holding onto my warm smile. He blinked blankly before releasing a slight sigh for what I have decided to do... Argh... The burden I'm currently holding is much more heavier than anything that I have ever felt in my entire damn life!
"I promise to defeat this forsaken dragon with the tip of my blade", I said, giving him another firm nod before he gulped silently and slowly walked backwards towards Milk with a frown on his concerned face. "Now!", I suddenly said loudly, echoing once in the vast endless plains of grass that surrounded us from almost everywhere, proving that there's no backing out of this... Alright. I think it's time to settle this! "I don't know how you can talk, but that doesn't concern me!", I stated and looked away from the shimmering light green, crystal dragon that hovered over us like a small cloud, casting a shadow of itself to the right. "You guys, get out of here while I take this thing head on!".
"Be careful!", Star said just before they all immediately obligated to my orders and began to make a break towards the wide open gate with extreme speed, obviously, Mindy was the one who was at the front, leading them towards their goal. To search and rescue the prisoners at all costs... But, I have a little something watching me from the far left.
"I will", I whispered to myself as finally, the last of them had left the area and entered the hell hole via the toppled over rusted iron gate with light red blood quickly oozing out of the sides and corers like an overstuffed strawberry jam doughnut. "And I promise to take this dragon out with my heart and soul", I added and blinked, allowing my rage to become humble, making me able to use my willpower at a much greater extent.
"Looks like things will begin! Brothers!", A voice emitted from somewhere within the dragon before suddenly, three large, dark figures in deep, black demonic armour began to march up to me from the horizon, all fully concealed in their blood curling armour that intimidated foes. But not me. I cannot allow such things to stop me from beating them. "Let's make out Lord proud and teach this FrostBitten Scum some proper manners! We'll kill you again! Only this time, you'll be gone for good!", It screamed out in pure laughter, causing my blood to rush around my entire body like an endless highway of red blood cells, each carrying a tenfold of oxygen.
"Just try your best", I said with confidence and quickly stood in a defensive stance proudly, patiently waiting for the glistening green dragon to attack me. I gave the three knights a quick glance, studying their extremely slow pace towards me from a great distance. As far as the eye could see... Good. I looked back up at the dragon and smile devilishly as I let out a loud sigh of pure confidence to my plan... It's clearly simple. But first, I have to tell Sino something.
I turned to my left and held out my left, clenched fist, just in front of my mouth and then sprouted it open like a a blossoming flower. Only did it look more like an explosion... I received a good, blinding glint from her sniper scope, making me smile as I turned back to the dragon and remember the abilities I have... Yes. When I fought the giant worm, I killed it with a charge of speed and energy that made me able to jump greater heights and at faster speed... I've used it a total of four times in my entire life. The worm, the escape from Char Town, when I killed every solider in out house... and how I escaped from my own containment. I'm going to use it when the time is right! After all, a dragon is as vulnerable as a kitten when it's wings are cut off. I grinned mischievously as I stared up at the glittering, emerald dragon. It roared as loud as a lion, causing my ears to slightly twitch instead of folding in cowardice. Heck yes! I'm finally able to resist loud noises as will! The loud, booming roar lasted for a solid seven seconds as it's wings beat the air like slow drums, sending strong surges of air towards the swaying grass that rustled in the influence of the air like puppets on their master's strings.
"Burn and die by the flames of my dragon!", It exclaimed, causing it to snort our a long spear of white smoke from it's fire proof nostrils then opened it's mouth widely to reveal it's horrifying mouth that had viscous slime dripping from it's jaws lines with millions of sharp, glistening teeth. Hmm? I thought so... There must be someone ON the dragon, but because of my low angle, I'm not able to even have the slightest glimpse of who it may be. But seeing that he called those three figures his 'brothers', I'm betting that he too wears the same armour and IS a man due to the way he talks and the tone. Anyway, Charcoal would NEVER allow a woman to do a man's job, that's for bloody sure. "Superheated alloy!", The voice who I assumed belonged to the fourth man or the fourth general, boomed out with blood curling maniacal laughter that echoed in the empty air as a bright light began to emit from within the dragon's wide opened mouth.
Alright, if my plan goes accordingly and Sino makes the shot, then I'll be able to conclude the dragon's days of flying and turn it into an oversized lizard. "Sino, do it", I whispered out to myself, wondering and slightly hoping that she would somehow hear it and shoot the flaming yellow ball that was now at least the full size if the dragon's large, uncanny mouth...
"DIE!", The man screamed out with unmatched, evil laughter as the dragon roared for it's last time and released the ball of flickering flames made out of superheated metal...
No more than a quarter of a second, the ball of flaming inferno exploded into a huge white smoke screen that consumed the dragon within a split second. I imagined that a large chunk of it's face must've been destroyed in the process but that's only an assumption, seeing that it's logically possible for it to happen.
Now! I blinked, feeling my entire body suddenly gain strength and courage. With all the willpower I could muster and my own strength, I ran forwards with my blade in both my hands, grasped as tight as ever. My feet left the ground in an instant as my eyes began to change to a light, demonic red colour like Mindy's, only her ones where much more appealing. My ones are uncanny as hell! I clamped my teeth shut as tight as possible as I held my blade vertically in front of me, entering the smoke and suddenly making contact with a long, thin section of the dragon. Haha! My blade sliced through it as easy as hot knife in butter, causing millions of tiny shards of light green emeralds to explode like confetti all over the place. Once I had cleaned that slice, I fell down to the soft, light green ground with a loud thud and grunted loudly before turning around and leaped up again, entering the white haze that began to die away like acid was being pored over it. Once again, my mighty blade sliced through the narrow bone of the dragon, emitting a nice, satisfying crunch and crack that made me smile devilishly as I exited the the smoke and landed onto the ground once more. The moment I turned around, the ground suddenly shook and the smoke had completely vanished into the very cold, thin air that surrounded us in an endless soothing breeze. Yes! My plan worked like a bloody epic charm!, but the only flaw was that it's face was still unaffected. Nevertheless, it was on the ground on all fours with the fourth general sitting on the dragon's spiny back, wearing the exact same armour as the other three. Thank you Sino for having great accuracy! Without a moment to lose, blinked slowly and sighed to the warmth of the sunlight as the soothing breeze of the invisible air brushed against my skin, slightly tickling me but I did not allow that weird sensation to distract me from the second and final stage of my plan.
I made a glance to my left, hoping that Sino would see me smile. She gave me a binding glint with her sniper scope, making me gain confidence with every passing second and more of a reason to live. Let's finish this once and for all! I turned back in front of me and leaned slightly forwards as I bent down my knees ever so slightly and stared into the dragon's green, snake-like eyes that would force anyone to retreat or double think their attack. But not me. There is absolutely no way I'm backing out of this opportunity!
"Taste my blade", I whispered to myself in a deep, low tone before I felt my feet leave the ground as I leaped forwards with lightning speed towards the dragon's face. I felt the wind bash painfully against me and made my black trench coat flutter behind me ruthlessly as I held my blade right in front of my face vertically to increase wind resistance and to reduce as much friction as possible. There's no way that I'd like to become a flaming fire ball! This is it! I braced for impact and grunted quietly before I clenched my teeth and held tightly on the black leather handle of my legendary blade, the Exzarca. "You messed with the wrong FrostBitten!", I yelled out just as my blade made contact with the dragon's skull point blank in between it's eyes, causing thousands and thousands of grains of light green emerald shards to explode. "Endure the final pain you'll ever experience in this world!", I screamed out at the top of my lungs and grit my teeth even harder as I forced all of my power onto my very blade, causing it to go deeper and deeper into the dragon's skull before suddenly, I heard a satisfying crack from within it, causing me to spark up with more energy as I added even more power. "I will not let you live!", I screamed out and began to let out my battle cry as I began to push with all my might against it as crystal shards continued to flood the entire air like a harmless blizzard as I narrowed my eyes slightly, knowing that getting one stuck in your eye would prove life threatening.
Finally, I managed to slice through the dragon's body until I was right in it's stomach and surprisingly, it HAD not blood, organs or any logic to how it even proved to exist... I shook of the dangerous thoughts and continued to ravage through the dragon mercilessly in silence... The only noise around me was the sound of glass breaking and the scrunching of the light green grass to my right. But it sounded a lot more that just one individual... Yes... I think they're bloody here! Perfect timing! Any later and this would've been a failure. Eventually, I finally sliced clean through the dragon's back, just to the left of the tail and walked forwards like nothing had happened to give me that 'badass' impression. I then stopped abruptly after a good sixteen steps. With an epic swing of my blade using my right hand only, I spun it around my wrist and and slice the air diagonally, emitting a loud, slicing sound that was accompanied with an explosion from behind me. My clothes and hair fluttered forwards due to logic and the force of the blast. Damn! I just took badass to a whole new level! I feel so alive! Haha! Now, for the four generals...
"Frost Richtofen, you will paid DEARLY for what you have done!", The fourth general said angrily from far behind. I smirked and spun around to see all four of them standing in a straight line and all holding different weapons. The first to the left held a large, grey, spike infested mace that looked as tall as a baseball bat and the ball on top was as big as a basket ball...
Dammit, that's one thing I'm going to have to try to avoid. The next one wielded a large, curve scimitar that looked like it was just freshly painted in jet black, still unstained in red. The other one held a two handed sword with both his hands beside him as he stood as tall as the others. Finally, the last one had a large claymore classed blade, looking as fragile as the rest but deep down, I knew that such a weapon would be able to slice through bricks no sweat. Compare me to that, and I'll probably be like wet paper against a bloody kitchen knife! Dammit brain... Stop making things worse for me!
"You will endure your second and last death", one of them said. I could not tell who was talking due to their large, black berserker helmets concealing their entire face like their identity was their most precious thing. "You will never win against us, Charcoal's most greatest men. The generals!", Someone said in a commanding voice, almost like how Cupa's father used to talk... Damn how much I miss that bloody epic king! If only Charcoal hadn't possessed him... I'll make sure that his death wasn't in vain, so as the rest of those who died in the collapse of his legendary kingdom!
I blinked blankly and clenched more tightly onto my blade with both my hands as I gave them all death stares with my light red, demonic eye that could force an individual to commit suicide due to the incredible amount of fear I can induce into their minds.
"You four all against me?", I said rhetorically. They all nodded in unison, causing me to exhale loudly to the amount of pressure building up from within me like a balloon, slowly reaching it's breaking point. "Well then, if you say that I'm going to die, then you might as well tell me where Serenity is", I said in a calm tone.
