In ancient times,magical creatures of all sorts were looked up to by the humans. Sometimes, even worshiped. An example would be the Protectors. For years we have protected the humans from all kinds of dangers, together with the Dragons, we nurtured the humans and helped them grow. But, the contact with the humans had influenced some of our numbers, corrupting their pure spirit with dark emotions. Greed, revenge, envy, jealousy, all these emotions had started to destroy purity of the other magic creatures. Out of fear, The Great Protector, leader of the Ishistar clan, of that era banished the protectors turned black. They gave themselves a new name,the Destroyers. Out of anger for being banished, the Destroyers started to go against the Cruruvian code: never to harm others. Protectors being what they were, tried their best to stop these meaningless attacks, they finally became terribly angered at the Destroyer's frequent attacks and demanded a showdown in order to end this loss of human lives. A terrible war broke out, we called it 'The Rampage',it was a close fight, but the Destroyers lost as their numbers were insufficient. They retreated to gain allies to support them. Now a new war threatens.

The Dragons had always been our closest allies. They've been here what seems to be the beginning of time, guiding our actions and teaching us to use our magic wisely. It was them who banished the darker creatures like the Vampires and Werewolves. They had aided us in 'The Rampage', but this resulted in a whole lot of the Elders being killed. Now the eldest of them, is only 18 human years of age,thats still very young, even for a Dragon. The Dragon race was at the brink of extinction and with the upcoming war, who knows what will happen? But still they are the most power full in their magic. Every Dragon has a symbol representing their power. They channel all their magic from this power. Examples of these symbols are; Knowledge, Generosity, Kindness, Gentleness, Light. There were also the darker symbolics like; Darkness, Hazard and Chaos. Dark Dragons are very rare as they are the offspring of Dragons and Destroyers. This kind of pairings usually do not last. Something to do with the Fates and their Prophesies. My name is Yamato Ishida, heir of the Ishistar clan, future leader of all creatures of light. Listen very carefully, none of what i am about to tell you has ever been recorded, welcome to Jautou, land of the magical creatures...

Carusa Drake -castle of the dragons+

In a room, located at the highest tower in the castle, four robed beings were arguing quite loudly...

''We need the Protectors here!''

''No, the war will be too dangerous, we cannot risk it,''

''We will train them, they will be ready.''

''If they die, there will be no others to replace them! 'Tis too much a risk,''

''We CANNOT fight alone our numbers are too limited.''

'' A risk I am willing to take!''

''Of course you have been 'so' well known for your recklessness, its not surprising you-''

''IF I'M SO DAMN RECKLESS, THEN WHY ASK ME TO JOIN THIS STUPID DISSCUSSION OF YOURS!''

-glares-

-glares back with more intensity-

Ken sighed as he looked upon this discussion-turned-argument from the shadows, these young masters still have a lot to learn, especially cooperation. He watched Ruki and Kouji glaring daggers at each other with slight amusement for a while, but catching the look on Kouichi's face, he decided it was time he took the situation into his own hands.

''I think Kouji has a fair point, we cannot risk losing any more young ones,'' Kouji shot Ruki a triumphant look,''HOWERER, we are short in numbers, therefore I suggest that we take the strongest of the clans, beseech them for their help. If they are willing, bring them back, if not, leave them be.'' Ruki smirked at Kouji who looked furious. Ken noticed the exchange and sighed ''You two seriously need to grow up and live up to your tittles, you are Dragon Masters for goodness's sake!'' Both said persons opened their mouths to protest but Ryo beat them to it,''Well, the night ain't young no more, lets go catch some shuteye!''

The four of them departed from the room, leaving Ken alone. He closed his eyes,It has began, He then dragged himself to the balcony where his form shifted. Deep sapphire blue scales covered his growing form, sharp talons grew out of his nails,teeth lengthened in his now prolonged serpent like head, he winced slightly as huge, gigantic wings ripped out of his back, and a long tail with a bladed end whipped out behind him. The blue giant then hurled himself into the sky, spread his wings and flew into the night sky. Sleep never came to Ken in times like these, might as well get the job done instead of wasting time trying to sleep.
