Chapter 2
Where all hell breaks loose
A Dragon? Of all the things the gods had to send to get me out of this mess why did it have to be a dragon? Couldn't the gods makes Tullius have a change of heart or something like that? Regardless now was not the time to really be picky especially when the dragon let out a roar that called flaming death to rain down from the sky. So, wasting no time at all I ran towards the body of the captain that I had killed moments before and retrieved my throwing knives and my dual short-swords as Ralof got Katlyn to her feet. Then all three of us made a mad dash to the nearby tower as the giant black dragon set about destroying the entire town. Once we were in the tower Ralof looked to Ulfric and said Looking over at his officer the Jarl simply stated While this was going on however I did the sensible thing and cut Katlyn's bindings and said She looked at me and said she still looked dazed and in all probability still in shock from the traumatic experience of nearly being executed, and having a giant dragon attack you. She then looked at me and looking abashed said With a small smile I said She gave a small rather cute laugh at that and said Our little banter however was ended by Ulfric shouting followed by Ralof motioning towards the stairs. However right before we reached the second story of the tower the dragons head burst through the wall as it sent a jet of flame into the building, causing all of us to jump back in surprise, and causing Katlyn to trip and fall. In a motion of pure instinct my hand shot out to grab her as I turned my back to shield her from the flames. Setting her back on her feet I said She, however was less amused by that and as soon as I set her down she punched my shoulder. As the dragon left to continue it's rampage through Helgen Ralof pointed to the building that had a collapsed roof and said Without a chance to think about how absurd this was me and Katlyn both jumped into the second story of the inn barely missing the flames. As soon as we reached the ground floor we found the imperial soldier I had asked to take care of my ashes as he was attempting to get a child away from a man presumably his father who was bleeding out on the ground. He then looked towards the old man and said Gunnar looked at the man and said The newly named Hadvar looked at us and said I gave his a small smile and said He gave a slight nod and Together with Hadvar we ran through the burning village nearly avoiding fireballs, and run ins with the actual dragon, and everything was going surprisingly well until we reached the keep where we ran into Ralof. With anger in his voice Hadvar shouted Ralof shouted back. A mixture of anger and annoyance in his voice said Then both of them grabbed one of Katlyn's arms wanting her to join one of them. Really I thought they should have put aside their differences because I'm pretty sure the giant fucking dragon doesn't really care what side of the war they support, but it seems common sense is in short supply these days. So Katlyn making the only other sensible choice chose to go with Ralof because the stormcloaks were not trying to chop her head off earlier. So with that matter settled we ran into the keep with Ralof to escape from the dragon outside.
(AN: next chapter will be from Katlyn's point of view and will fully describe the appearance and race of Duncan. My plan is to start Katlyn off small and as the story develops she will become a badass warrior. I know the chapters might be a little on the short side but as I continue writing I hope to start making longer chapters.)
