Syphosis upon the fic.

Heart of Trepidition

Draco goes to the town where the two girls are, thanks to Ray's help and support, he goes in taking out many of the hundred droids in town by his sword and guns reaching to where the two damsels are held. After taking a few bullets, he easily finds a difference in how one of the droids acts, finding the real picard, as he fires away disabling Picards control, telling him he was off a few motions, before sending the final bullet to the fiend. With Gaby and Lecha rescued, he hitches a ride with Ray to the town of Uctar.

Pet Peeve

Nina though is still saddened by the recent event that cost an entire town. Mai though, after having a burst out when a child cried is heading home when fox confronts her, telling of the Dream diver, appears she is the only one who can confront him thanks to her ability to avoid alpha waves. Yet the regents are not quitting, as two stallions (think the two from BOF3, but with a few piercing, better cloths, etc.) are heading to the town. Mai heads off, as she see's through the dream divers illusions, but he then pulls the sound of crying children, a memory Mai is haunted by since in her past she was forced to take care of her siblings. She also feels guilty for running away and teaming up with fox, but she then remembers the song, as she hums it, keeping her calm. The two stallions attack, along with a few other robots. Wes and Ichiro take them on while Ryu protects Nina using his Dragon powers. They are victories, yatta yatta yatta. Anyhow, Mai finally finds the dream diver who has now failed to destroy Nina's very existence and now seeks to kill Mai. Mai though kills him first finishing the Green sleeves song that helped her resist him, and returning to town is shot by Fox, who dies by getting a large round of bullets into his body. Ichiro runs to her side, as she smiles, telling him she fell in love with him as he was someone who could except her little pet peeve and where Hudson is located.

Dysfunctional Family

Draco goes to Uctar, as it is a few miles from Draganier. It is here Gaby has found her mother, someone she fully despises. Thomas though has brought along the last two regents, Maurice who can control an army of soldiers and Donte, who he asks to force the three into the open so he can gun him down. The town goes into a war zone as Lecha takes on Donte, while Gaby and Draco deal with Maurice. Thomas nearly gets Draco, who goes behind a building, but Gaby is still open. As Thomas tries to kill her, Gaby's mother shoves her aside taking the shot. Lecha, who has now killed Donte after killing him when she figured his strategy out, loads up the explosive rounds and fires upon where Thomas is, sending him falling to his death. Draco give Maurice a shot to the heart, the soldiers dying off immediately. Gaby's mother admits she abandoned her daughter, but deep down she shamed herself for leaving, and up until now did she ignore it. She tells Gaby that she may never atone for abandoning her, but she will leave her with a brighter hope, as she hands Gaby two dual handguns, telling her they were crafted to suit her for when she grows up. With her last breath, she tells Gaby to follow her heart, Gaby already in tears. We end with Draco and Lecha planning to leave the already heartorn Gaby behind, but she shouts for them to wait up, running towards them, as she claims the two are the only caring family she has. The three heartwarmingly unite, walking off into the sunset.

Showdown in Dimmsdale

Ryu's party heads to Dimmsdale, where a band called Shattered Kiss is the hype of the city at the very moment. Turns out, Hudson also has them set up to kill Ryu and the others. The band Shatter kiss, consisting of Flint Dagger, John Hendrix, Carl Trent, and Elton James (pun names intended, it should be OBVIOUS who is where, especially if you know them. To make a descriptive note, they resemble more of Rolling stones in the seventies then present day. Also, to make species notes: Dagger is human, Hendrix is a frog type, Trent is Highlander [not Scottish Immortal highlander you assholes ] and Elton is Haren) A killer performance is cheered on by the crowd, where Ryu and the other three watch. After about two hours a few bots begin attacking, as most of the crowd runs, a few getting shot up by the droids. Ryu and his party shot down the bots, but only to find that it was merely a ploy to run people out. Thus a four way battle commences. Ryu vs. Dagger, Nina vs. Trent, Ichiro vs. Hendrix, and Wes vs. Elton. The battle ravages the town as their instruments are weapons of hell, easily causing damage upon Dimmsdale. Though in the end Ryu and his party members are the winners, with only Wes making the kill. Nina's ended up dead from a overload of energy shock, while Ichiro and Ryu's opponents ended up dead by a sniper shot. Leaving town quickly, they end up having the car overturn due to an unknown force controlling them, and wreck. As the flames destroy the automobile, Hudson walks, revealing himself as the leader and their bringer of doom.

Truth of Dragon Purge

Entering the city of ruins, Draco finds nothing, even as the sounds of the winds are heard through town. Of course, upon the loud sound of a moving rock door, the three find a stairway leading down. Following the path, they step onto a platform, slowly going down as images of the Regents (mostly Picard, Hudson, Thomas, Glitz, The elemental sisters, Duane, Blake, Jesse, Stallion brothers, Rudy, Gargol, Zeek, Lustblood I, Artimis, Maurice, Madd. And Zuang.) Lecha mentions the dragons appear to be in pain, as Gaby concurs. Arriving, Deis the naga greets them upon entering. Draco pulls out the gun, taking her to be an enemy before she mentions a dragon such as he is indeed like his ancestors the Black Dragons.

She then tells them that the Dragon Purge was merely a fraud, and that the dragons were merely weakened, by the Dragons Heart (yes, the bof I song).

She mentions the Regents had no clue because it was played at a frequency only dragon ears could her, thus the dragons fell victim to the song, allow the regents to kill them with no challenge. Draco demands to know how anyone could know it and who is responsible. Deis mentions that the one behind all this is none other then the CEO Mike Taylor, but she mentions the man couldn't have found the dragons weakness without help. Draco bellyaches that while he finds one answer, he now has another. Gaby and Lecha immediately vanish, Draco becoming outraged and demands where they are. Dies mentions they are safe, but also that she needed to speak to Draco alone.

She mentions that he is destined to fight Ryu, as his cousin is a white dragon. She states that it is mere Fate that two worriers of the White and Black Dragon clan must fight, and that in the past the White dragon is usually victorious. Draco calls it bullshit, and turns his back. As he walks out, Deis mentions to him "Only you can decide your fate Black Dragon." And throws him two wristbands, telling him that an enemy shall emerge soon, and those will help unleash the ultimate dragon within and it will prevent the cloths on your body to be ripped to shreds. Draco walks out, and while Gaby asks about what Deis wanted to see him, her question goes unanswered as Lecha mentions Neo Rogue is calling all people to meet in their main headquarters.

Draco nods, telling her it is best they get going.

Defeat

Hudson gives them a decision: they can do this the easy way or the hard way. Wes immediately says their way and fires several hundred shots. Hudson throws each off coarse, as he delivers a psychic blow to Wes, as the woren is sent flying back hard, easily hit hard. Ichiro makes the next move, as he jumps into the air, preparing to do a move, but is stopped in mid air, before Hudson delivers a heavy blow to the abs, K.O.ing the samurai. Ryu opens fire, but each bullet is stopped in mid air, before being thrown back behind Hudson, who states his powers are far beyond anyone's. Nina sends a magic spell after him, but he merely uses his own shield to block it, as he then grabs Nina by the throat telekinetically, as he walks over, grasping her by her neck blades, as he puts her to sleep. Ryu decides to go dragon, but it's too late, as Hudson uses his powers to telekinetically beat the living crap out of Ryu, as the blue haired guy gets himself finished off.

With victory achieved, Hudson orders his groups of droids to move in and take them to Facility Station Alpha, looking to the Fae, he caresses her cheek, smiling as he states, "Your mine now, angel!"

Rebel Strike.

Heading to the main hidden headquarters, we find it is a ghosttown, mostly rundown by outlaws. After revealing a secret path, they board one of the sub carts that takes them to the real headquarters, a built in mountion base. After explaining a few things to Gaby, they go within the meeting hall as Nathan announces how the attack is set up to go in and destroy the council once and for all. Draco speaks up, claiming he should go in first and destroy all defense artillery, boasting that he has the power of the dragon to do it. Nathan recently agrees, as the others gear up. Indeed does Draco raise hell, as he goes in and blows apart each of the many cannons, as he goes inside, ravaging the bots within. Neo Rogue follows in closely behind, taking down most of the security forces. While security hits top level, Draco breaches through each door, making his way to the main chamber, where he kills off most of the council, stating it is in the name of the dragons.

With the area taken over, they decide to start investigating.

Torture

Nina wakes up, naked and within a freezer, as she covers herself shivering. She glances around as Hudson greets her by telecom, mentioning that he took the liberty of undressing her, but unlike outlaws, he didn't dare rape her. She calls him sick, but doesn't get through to him, as he turns the freezer on. He demands the location, taunting her as he shows her on screen her three companions. Wes is being battered by a few robots, easily being beaten mercilessly. Ichiro is suffering through mere bondage, but unlike Wes, he is being burned by a few branding tools. Lastly, Ryu is restrained to a generator, being shocked dangerously, as he screams in pain as the voltage is shot through him. Nina, seeing all this, and succumbing to the cold chirps, as she tells him it is located in the Telcon Mountains. Hudson alerts Mike, who tells him he is no longer needed, as he presses a button, forcing Hudson into full body pain, slowly being murdered. Mike alerts him that he intended for Hudson to be merciless, that he wanted a son who would put man in its place, but Hudson became soft. He then states that once Obelisk is his, his fortress of solitude shall be his castle. Hudson though, looking to Nina telepathically shows her his past life as a orphan, how his powers hurt those who picked on him, how he came to be with Mike. He then states to her he never knew his real parents, and the world to him was full of fools. Yet Mike was the only person who showed him love, and he felt in debt to him, so he served in his fathers company. He then teaches Nina Teleport, as she awakens from her trance to find herself in Ryu's arms and covered by his jacket. She cries hugging him, as he hugs back, telling her its okay. With the new developments, Nina tells them it is time to go to New Wyndia.

Utopia

After getting dressed, Nina teleports the four to the area of New Wyndia, a ancient rome like area, minus the toga's and add the fancy dresswear. Nina though is confronted by guards, who demand to know why she returned with outlanders. She claims they are in danger, and the soldiers claim she already IS a danger, as she brought this doom upon them by leaving. They escort them to the court house, where they are taken to a room. Wes comments he wanted to see girls in kimino's, while Ichiro mentions they are just as xenophobic as his people were. A guard comes in, telling Nina that her parents wish to see her and the blue haired one. The two walk through the large hall, as they appear before the council. As the two are scorn, the main aristocrat mentions that Ryu though is of Dragon descendent, and that his kind was once thought to be dead.

They mention that Ryu is perhaps their last hope for safety and apologize for the inconvenience. Ryu is told that for fifty years they cut themselves from the world when Auron began to threaten their kind through the underworlds guns. Seeing that Auron already ran most of the business world and was now beginning to threaten their merchants, they hid themselves from the world. Yet now, recent visions of six omen red eyes haunt them in their dreams, and a hydra seems to be a silhouette. They tell Ryu that they do no wish to fight, as they have always stood for peace for a long time. Ryu agrees to help, as the council grants to release his friends.

Reuniting with her parents, Nina introduces Ryu to them. While her father isn't too liking to Ryu being her lover (ah, its obvious, sheesh, who wouldn't have known this would happen), her mother is delighted, whispering that Nina sure has found a handsome young man. Wes and Ichiro explore the area, as they look around the area, seeing the many people here. Ichiro mentions it appears to be Utopia, but mentions it lacks interaction with the world below. Wes agree's, saying even as pretty as the city is that the area is so separated from the world, the people seem to know little hardships.

Neo Rogue though is already hacking into the system, searching for information on all of Aurons secret weapons, before one comes across the several airships. He calls Nathan over, mentioning that the ships are already heading towards Telcon Mountains. Nathan immediately asks why the hell would they go there, but then gets the idea that it must be where Neo Wyndia is, as he lost Ichiro's signal. Lecha though has found a storage room where a few armory vehicles are stored, including a mech that appears to be named 'Lambda Wing' (think the Super Vandread but with warped colors, and wing like weaponry on his back.) Nathan alerts the three (Draco leaning against the wall nearby) that Auron has found New Wyndia.

While this shocks the trio, Lecha smiles, as she runs to the Lambda Wing, and quickly hacks her way into the machine, quickly gaining access and analyzes he controls. Draco and Gaby immediately board, taking the seat behind. Lecha tells Nathan to leave the ships to them, even against his orders, they take off into the sky.

Ryu and Nina, sleeping together, (yep, both bare) wake up, exchanging a few romantic words. A knock on the door sends them into panic, as they run side to side, grabbing their cloths as they hastily get dress. Wes remarks its only him, but tells them there's an emergency. Indeed it is, as New Wyndia is surrounded by five ships from all sides. Wes mentions they already blew away the cloaking shield, so theirs no point in being quiet. Ryu asks Nina's father if there's anyway to even try to make a move towards the flagships (mainly the more quality built ship). He replies its reckless, as the ships have artillery turrets to shoot down anyone who tries to attack. Ryu curses, looking out to see the large flagship ahead.

Sky Shootout

Mike demands that the Wyndian's surrender, or he will open fire upon the fortress. While most are within the middle area, there is still a chance the area will be shot out. Mike makes his last demands, and claims if they do not answer soon, they will fire. Hearing no reply, he starts counting down from ten, tension rising as he nears zero. At that very moment an explosion rings from one of the ships, as it descends down from the sky. Immediately Draco yells out "surprise" as the Lambda Wing continues the assault, as it fires several missiles upon the other ships, each one falling to the earth, as the Lambda wing eventually goes after the flagship, blowing apart each of the turrets on the flagship, disabling the only offense the ship has. Immediately they land, as Draco plans to settle things mono on mono.

Ryu and co. witness the attack from New Wyndia, seeing that it is deactivated he requests to use the air transportation. They are shown an old twentieth century bi plane, as the creator tells Ryu how it works in a brief explanation. Wes and Ichiro ride wing side, while Ryu and Nina fly in the duel cockpit. The team takes off, crash landing onto the ship right near where the mech was parked. Heading out, they storm through the area, trailing after the several hundred trashed bots, until they run into Draco (though pull the guns out, but negotiate.) making their way through the halls of the ship, they are right near the bridge, but Mike has one last card, as he plays the Dragons heart song, weakening Draco and Ryu badly.

Nina and the others take action as they eradicate all speakers and roundspeakers around the area, cutting the song down. Draco tells everyone to head back, stating only he and Ryu should be the one's who can confront the CEO. While Nina is reluctant, Ryu tells her it is for the best. Heading off, the two go inside, as they shoot the CEO only to find out it is a mere android. The real one reveals himself, and tells them he is impress cretins such as them still exist.

He mentions that a black dragon helped him find out the frequency along with a few other dragon hating species of different races. With his help he was able to send the song through the dragon ear frequency, enabling the Dragon Purge to be attained. Yet, all this was part of his top secret plan, to create the ultimate serum that would give him god like powers. He mentions it took ten years, but in the end, his scientist where able to create a formula that would not force the user into insanity. Draco remarks he's a pathetic mortal who has no right to even use the Dragons power, taking the first shot, but the bullet is stopped by a shield.

Injecting the serum within his body, he laughs sadistically. His body mutates into a three headed hydra, a dark purple scaled dragon. Breaking through the roof of the building, he flies out proclaiming himself to be the new god of this world.

Hydra vs. Dragon Duo

Draco throws Ryu the amulet, telling him it will help unleash his true powers (adding it also won't have the two blowing more zen on cloths). Transforming, the two go Kaiser, though their guns merge into head accessories (think like Panzer Dragon type helmets.) The two pursue the hydra, as it flies around the world, declaring the time of justice is upon the outlaws by destroying every town. He claims all shall kneel before him or die. Ryu and Draco vigorously counter back his statements such as "Power is not something you could ever control!" and "You are no god, you're a mutant freak!". The Hydra destroys the town where most of the outlaws are (where Draco first went Dragon), and nearly blasts Draco and Ryu.

Though Ryu and Draco fire several beam like fire shots from their mouths, blowing the Hydra off, only to have him regenerate. Though after a while the thing acts funny, Draco stating it must be the human blood being rejected by the serum. Ryu agree's, mentioning that forcing such things upon the body yield disastrous results. Hydra claims he is a God, but as Ryu and Draco give him one hell of a spread shot that eradicates the beast to hell, or so it seems. The two go off, heading back to Neo Wyndia.

Though Mike is still alive, laying along the ground, naked as he slowly gets up. Yet as he glances around, Nathan walks forth, as he takes out a gun, firing a bullet into the man, as his shrivels away into a dead corpse. Nathan mentions that with any formula, there is a antidote.

While most on New Wyndia celebrate, all goes to ashes as the floating city falls to the ground. Draco reveals that he has a score to settle, and demands Ryu come to Draganair alone. When Lecha demands to know why, Draco only tells her to stay out of this, as it is something that he must do. Stealing Lambda wing, he threatens that Ryu has two days, otherwise he vows to destroy each town if Ryu doesn't cooperate. Nina asks Ryu if he plans to fight Draco, feeling uneasy. Ryu claims he has no choice but to face Draco in Draganair.

Cruel Fate

Ryu walks through the desert, finally reaching Dragonair. He demands to know why Draco wants to fight him so badly and for what possible reason. As the two meet, Ryu demands to know why Draco wants to fight, for what reason does he threaten to kill innocent lives. Draco grunts, stating that he and Ryu are destined to fight by blood, that they are opposites, Ryu is of the White Dragons and Draco is of the Black, it is fate that bounds them to one day fight. Draco claims he want's to get this over with now, so he can move on. Ryu states its meaningless, they worked together to save the world, they are clearly not destined to fight.

Draco though draws his gun, telling him it is not an option, by blood they are destined to fight one another. The two fight, gun on gun, as Ryu constantly tells Draco the battle is meaningless. Draco ignores, as two duke it out once more, before taking it to the next stage in their wyrm forms, fighting with the deadly shots as the two nearly tear the town to a desert. The combined party arrives watching from a distance in horror. The battle though ends as Ryu falls to the ground reverting to human form, as Draco does the same. He walks up, as Nina and Lecha run forth, both telling him to stop, but only being told to bug off, as he walks closer, putting the gun up to Ryu's head. Ryu only tells him in his emotionless voice to shoot him, stating it is merely something Draco has lived by for so long. Draco though remembers Dies words, how he decides his own fate, thinking back to how two sides fought and died over the past ages. Grunting, he lowers his gun, taking a deep breath of relief. He states that Ryu is right, that it is meaningless to fight, that history has repeated itself far too long. He looks to Ryu, apologizing for doing so much, and Ryu can't help but accept. Nina runs over hugging Ryu tightly, as Lecha and Gaby to the same to Draco.

Flash to two years passing.

Nina writes how things changed, with Neo Rogue dividing Auron apart into several businesses in order to create a balance in the market, and in industries. In addition, they also have been able to repair some of the desert, through hard work and sweat to get some plants to blossom in the heated desert. Thanks to them has society began to calm down, though outlaws still roam, their arnt as many.

Wes married Cherry and the two now do their best to care for the orphaned kids at the renamed elemental sisters orphanage "Kiki's Orphanage", in memory of the fallen girl Wes loved. Ichiro vanished, but she last heard he had found a boy to train as a successor of the Shin Du Ken arts. Gaby was adopted by Draco and Lecha, she now is training to be a Neo Peacekeeper. Lecha married Draco and Nina Ryu, both couples already having recent newborns (Draco a son, Ryu a daughter). As for the dragon boys, they are law enforcers, and so far are doing a good job.

Ending scene with Ryu and Draco at a bar as a few punk outlaws ask if they are the law enforcers. Ryu turns around, answering "whats it to you?". The punks reply they are here to kill them off, as a large crowd of them gathers. Ryu laughs, as he turns to Draco, saying "Looks like these boys need a lesson, doncha think, Partner?" Draco nods, as the two draw their guns, taking out each of the fools in a rain of bullets.

Authors notes: Yeah, I kinda cheeped it, but hey, like Crow said, it seemed to go on forever. So seeing as I will start collage soon, and I have more obsession towards Vandread, well, I decided to just sum this story up to good readers. Like it or not, just be glad I didn't discontinue it. Otherwise, where would the conclusion be. Anyway, thanks to whoever read my story fully, and drop a review if you feel like it.
