Aka Ryu

Disclaimer: I do not own Rurouni Kenshin. That I do not.

Blood rained in the night. Everybody knew that. That's why no one went out at night. It was said that anyone who went out at night was marked by the devil and died of mysterious circumstances. Or so the people of Kyoto said. What they didn't know was there was a war going on. A war between two factions. A merger between two worlds was in progress. The world as we know was going to face a drastic change.

Silvara looked up at the night sky. She stared at the silver moon of Paladine for a few moments before she looked back down. Silver dragons were known to pray to Paladine often and Silvara was no exception. She didn't notice that there was another unknown item in the sky, but Chaos noticed. The black dragon smiled to himself and began to make a plan. This plan would prove that black dragons would rule all. With that in mind, Chaos flew form his cave in Kothas with a destination in mind.

Kenshin Himura was also staring at the moon. He found himself staring at a distant red star but dismissed it when he heard Kaoru yell at him. He sighed and looked up at the star one last time with amber eyes before they faded back to purple and he walked back inside the dojo.

Deep in southern Ergoth on the highest snowy peak, two knights were trudging uphill. The knights were unaware that a pair of gold eyes was watching them. As they trudged up the steep mountain pass, a white claw reached out and slashed at the knight toward the back. The wound was considered light, for a dragon. However to humans, it was fatal. The knight yelled in pain as blood sprayed from the wound. The other knight turned around just in time to watch his friend get slashed. He was about to charge and attack when he realized what it was. Suddenly the attacker was reveled. As the form stepped toward the knight sunlight glistened off white scales and Frost, the white dragon emerged. Seeing now what he was up against he fled. Frost just merely turned his head, lowered it over the fleeing knight and had a light snack.

Steel Brightblade, the new appointed commander of the Knights of Neraka, was furious. The two scouts he sent out had yet to return. He was contemplating sending out a search party, but that idea was cut short when a shadow flew over the camp. The last thing the regiment saw was a white dragon flying at them. Unknown to the dragon there was one survivor, Steel Brightblade.

Chaos landed at last. The destination was the Tower of High Sorcery. This is where his queen, Queen Takhisis was waiting to be released. All he needed was an innocent and powerful soul to open the gate to the Abyss to free her.

No one was aware of the change because it happened overnight. When the sun rose, the world was thrown into chaos. Civilians fled in fear of the flying menaces that perused them until they had fallen. The army was thrown out of proportion as one by one the cities were claimed by the dragon's might. Few people had put up a fight against them. Mostly all they did was run through barren landscapes, already torched by the dragons, and trample anyone who got in their way or was too slow for their liking. The dragons enjoyed every moment of this and perused them with glee. The puny humans only provided entertainment for a few minutes before the chasing dragon got bored and killed them slowly with either fire, lightning, poison/acid, ice, magic, teeth, or claws. The people of Japan now knew the true meaning of fear. A fear that had never existed except in their nightmares. One city, had yet to fall. It is here that the key to unlocking the abyss was.
