Falling

By: Shadow Sailor

1000 years ago...

In a time of great suffering, in the land of old Japan, a great evil over swept. Trees burned...animals cowered...and gods wept...Until, one day, a large, red dragon, by the name of Ryune, emerged from the shadows. At first, Ryune brought much peace to the land, until...A giant, black dragon swallowed the sun in which Ryune had given... "Who are you...and what is your purpose!" thundered Ryune. "I am Niaka, the dragon of darkness!" bellowed the black dragon in return. "Have you come to destroy all that I have settled!?" roared Ryune. "I am going to do more than just that..." hissed Niaka, in a serpent's tone. "Oh, really" countered Ryune. Those exact words launched the battle of the century! The dragons lashed at each-other for thousands of years...until the both of them grew old...and their powers weakened...

"Why won't you stop...Niaka...this has gone on long enough!" bellowed a tattered Ryune. "I will never stop!" replied Niaka angrily. "Please..." pled Ryune.

"Never..." piped Niaka.

Flashes of light, and rays of darkness shot in every which direction... While, 3000 years in the future... a girl by the name of Chihiro awoke with a start.

"What do these dreams mean..?" muttered Chihiro. "Who are these dragons...and why are they fighting?" she thought, puzzling herself.

(OK, that's the end of chapter one! Please reply, and tell me if I should continue this, or not! So, is it good enough to be among great writers like yourselves? Please review!)
