"Get back here you ass!" Naruto shouted up towards Grandeeney's form, but she just looked down at the Fanalis with an amused look to her inteligent eyes. A deep throating chuckle was heard from the dragon that put them all on edge, and Naruto suddenly figured out what had felt off about the situation. Here was a dragon freely helping them kill another dragon, or a species that weren't even human. Sure, the two dragons were on opposite sides of the agreement. One loved humans and the other ate humans, but in a land with no humans that didn't matter.
"I said I would help you, but I help by healing. If you need me to heal you, then I will do it. I am not a fan of fighting though, so that part will have to be done by you and your group." Grandeeney told them, and most of the group shrugged. A wind dragon wouldn't be as much help against an ice dragon. In magic, ice was the elemental combination of water and wind. While you didn't need to know either of the two to use ice, that was still the combination. Dragons were naturally immune to their element, which meant that Tundrama would be either immune or almost immune to Grandeeney's sky related attacks.
"How will we contact you if we need healing?" Muu asked, while everyone started watching out for the dragon they would be fighting. Right now they were at the snow covered valley that the dragon slept in. At the mountains surrounding the valley were completely covered in ice, and sometimes in the snow you would come across a Fanalis that had met their end at the hands of the dragon. Their batlle expression showing through the ice they were incased in, and the determination they showed despite facing against their dooms was astounding. Their red hair and eyes standing out, even when frozen was what made them all more noticable.
"I will me close by, just shout for me." Grandeeney said, before she flew off towards the other end of the valley. Muu nodded and drew his sword in preperation for combat, since they never knew when Tundrama might return to her home. They waited for minutes, and those minutes turned into hours quickly until the sun was right over their heads again. Then finally they all heard the flap of wings, and the sound of wind whistling. Naruto and Rohroh had to jump far away from where they were as a wide and powerful beam of ice magic destroyed the ground they had stood on.
"Finally! All that waiting was killing me!" Razol shouted as a giant spike of ice formed on the location that the beam of ice magic struck. With a giant thud, the dragon they would be fighting landed on the ground and showed of her entire majestic glory. Call them what you will, but dragons of certain elements had a majestic beauty to them. Ice was one of those elements, and this dragon seemed to radiate a animal beauty to it.

Tundrama was a dragon about thirty meters tall, with a ten meter long white scale covered neck. The neck was about two meters thick, and on the back of the neck were dozens of spikes of clear ice coming from the scales. The ice spikes trailed down the spine itself. The head ofthe dragon was covered in an armor casing of ice on the head, going around the eyes, and trailing the long jawline of the dragon. The jaw was longer, and more snout-like than Grandeeney or Titus, with teeth made of ice showing. The ice was white in these areas, while gray eyes with slit pupils were seen. The main body of Tundrama was thick, with the top of the body covered in a thick armor of ice, while the bottom was just covered in white scales. Two giant wings came from her back, and they were colored as white as snow. Unlike Grandeeney and Titus though, she didn't have hands on her front legs. All fours of her legs were similar to elephant legs, but with three large claws sticking out of the front.
Finally there was her tail, that had a giant boulder of ice stuck on the tip.
"More of you Fanalis scum has come to defile my new nesting grounds, leave before you end up like all the rest!" Tundrama roared out at them, and Muu stepped forward andf pointed his sword at her. The other dragons had all talked to them first before taking home in THEIR country. The country they had been born on, and conquered. They owned this entire country, which made Tundrama the true intruder.
"Tundrama-san, I will grant you ONE last chance to leave these lands before we are forced into taking a darker course of action." Muu threatened with a rare glare at the dragon in front of them, while Morgiana tensed her legs to get ready for a fight, She wasn't the only one getting ready though. Razol already had an ice covered boulder lifted above her head, ready to be thrown, and Rohroh was leaking killing intent like a mad man. Myron was already trying to calculate the best way to defeat this dragon by looking over it's body. Finally, Naruto had summoned his dagger and had attached it to one of the chains on his left shackle.
Tundrama didn't bother responding with words, and let her actions do the talking by opening her mouth and sending a roar almost point blank at Muu. Thankfully Muu was able to react in time and jump away from the attack without any damage to his person. He landed next to Rohroh, and the taller Fanalis looked at Muu with an I told you so look.
"I told you so." Rohroh said, and refering to how he pointed out that Tundrama wouldn't leave of her own will. Like that the battle between Fanalis and dragon was started with Razol throwing and smashing a boulder into the side of Tundrama's main body. The dragon responded by waving her tail, and the snow around them started to rise up and it surged towards them like a powerful wave of freezing power. All the Fanalis jumped up high over the wave, but they all noticed spikes of ice flying towards each of them. They weren't even phased by the attack, and most of the simply batted the ice away from them.
"Naruto! Boost me down!" Myron shouted, and with a swing of his arm Naruto sent a chain at her that wrapped around her ankle. Swinging her around, Myron collided with Tundrama's hind leg and slammed into the dragon with her feet. This cracked the ice armor, but not brake it completely. Myron jumped off of the dragon as her ice fangs tried to rip her in two. Muu and Rohroh charged the dragon, and with a slice of his sword Muu made a narrow cut across the ice while Rohroh punched the cut and shattered that spot of ice armor.
Chains wrapped around both of their waists and pulled them back just in time as shards of ice formed where they had been standing. They landed next to Naruto, and the chains went back to his shackles. They all saw the ice on the dragon reform immediantly, which caused them to curse.
"That armor isn't part of the dragon, it is added on by the dragon creating it!" Morgiana shouted over to them as she danced through wave upon wave of ice crystal shards being sent her way. She actually grabbed one sharp and used it to bat away the others, before she threw the shard away right after when ice started to form on her hand. Gripping her frozen hand into a fist, the ice shattered and Razol dropped out of the sky and unleashed hell on Tundrama's skull with a n earth splitting heel drop that cracked the armor.
"The ice is freaking tough too!" Razol added as she jumped off of the dragon and landed next to Yaqut before they both charged the dragon and punched the ice armor at the same time before the relativally slow dragon could react. The armor shattered, before the shattered ice floated up and shot at the two Fanalis. Thankfully the ice bounced off the stomachs of their breast plates without causing more than a dent in the armor.
Rohroh charged the dragon head on, and Tundrama glared at the grinning man before she picked her tail up and slammed the ice on the end into Rohroh. He raised his arms and caught the ice barehanded, before hopping up in a way that allowed Muu to pass under him and cut the iced tip of the dragons tail off. He was holding the Naruto's flaming dagger, which said boy was pumping full of magic using the chain. Tundrama sent a chunk of ice at Muu, but he let go of the dagger and stopped the ice from going further with his hands like Rohroh behind him.
Tundrama's eyes widened though when she saw Naruto jumped up onto Muu's shoulder with one foot, before jumping off and heading straight for her. Swinging his arms back his chains wrapped around Rohroh and Muu so that the three of them were now heading towards Tundrama's head from the front, and the sides. She was about to take Naruto out with a roar, before a boulder of ice crashed into her mouth thanks to Razol. Naruto flipped in mid-air to use a heel drop on Tundrama's snout, while Muu and Rohroh pun ched her in each side of the head.
All the armor on her head was shattered right away, and the ice teeth of the dragon all cracked to go along with it. The three men jumped back, and Naruto chains let go of Rohroh and Muu.
Myron and Yaqut grabbed Tundrama's tail before she could swing it, and the two of the struggled lightly to hold it in place as ice formed on their hands just from touching her. Naruto stuck both his arms out before jumping into the air, with Rohroh and Muu following him up. Each grown Fanalis grabbed on his his arms, before they threw him at full strength towards the ice dragon before she had even a slight chance to react. Naruto passed right by Tundrama, and she turned her long neck to look at him standing on the ground behind her.
*Splursh*
Tundrama felt two wounds open up on the front of her body, and the top of her head. Blue blood squirted from the wounds on her body, and she looked to see a flaming dagger in Naruto's hands. A dagger that was capable of cutting through the hide of a dragon, and so far Tundrama had only ever heard of one person that had a dagger that could do that. That wore the Amol Selseira around their wrists.
Byakko the White Tiger, the King of Beasts, and finally the slayer of the dragon Titus. Suddenly these Fanalis were no longer just an annoying group that were only a light work out. They were a true threat to her life! She quicjkly froze her wounds closed, before reforming her ice armor over her body and creating spikes of ice out of her already existing armor. She was going to have to get more serious than she was when she started if she was to win against a person that had already killed a dragon, and a group of full grown Fanalis. The small girl could be killed at any moment, so she was not really counted in the group of threats.
With a single flap of her massive wings Tundrama flew up into the air, before looking down at the group of Fanalis. Opening her mouth, she fired a larger than average destructive beam of ice magic. Mryon and Razol jumped at high into the air after her, but they were quickly smacked out of the air by her tail. The two smashed into the ground, and they soon learned that they weren't very lucky when the ground cracked and they figured out that they were on top of an ice covered lake. The second they went through the ice, the holes they went rhough were quickly reforzen by the roar of ice.
"The air is a dragons domain puny Fanalis, now perish!" Tundrama said in confidence that they was going to win, before Rohroh and Yaqut punched the ice and shattered it so that the two girls could come back onto solid land. They breathed deeply, before shivering sligthly. Beimng cold was no big deal for a Fanalis, but being wet and cold sucked ass.
"Morgiana, take her down!" Muu ordered, and Tundrama wondered what that was about for only a second before she felt a large amount of force smash into her back and sent her right back on the ground. Chains wrapped around her arms from where Naruto guided her through the air safely, before she touched the ground next to him. The dragon growled in irritation, before roaring in frustration, and the snow started to swirl up and bulge randomly behind the dragon before compacting into a more durable form. Soon the form of the dragon was lost, and in her place was a giant snow dragon that was at least ten times the size of the original dragon.
Rohroh was the first one to be have his chest armor completely broken when Tundrama's new form kicked him hard enough to send him flying. Ice covering his body at random, before he flexed his body and broke the ice. He touched the ground with a grin set firmly in place, while bleeding from a deep gash on his chest.
"Try this on for size!" Razol shouted as she tossed a massive rock she ripped from the ground up at Tundrama, but it only got stuck in the snow without causing any damage. Razol cursed, before she felt Naruto grab her underarms and lift her up as wings sprouted out of the back of his armor and he took off into the sky. A wave of snow went towards the two of them, and when it hit the ground it turned into white ice.
"Rocks won't do any good against snow, but how about some fire!" Myron shouted to Naruto and Razol, and both of them nodded in the air while Muu jumped up into the air and landed on Naruto's lower back while he was flying. The three of them were also smacked out of the sky, before hitting the ground with bone smashing force. Muu wrapped both Razol and Naruto into his arms before they hit the ground, while he took the brunt of the damage while the back of his armor shattered.
"You guys alright?" Muu asked as the three stood up, with him bleeding out of a gash on his back caused by the armor breaking. Naruto nodded, before raised his arms and brought his chain around the three of them. Lighting the chains on fire with a good portion of his magic he defended them when a wave of snow crashed at them. The snow melted, and then evaporated right away. Morgiana and Myron ran through the steam and quickly got next to them, with Yaqut and an injured Rohroh coming in right after. Naruto's chains circles around them in a net-like barrier that was currently defending them from wave after wave of snow. Quickly draining more and more of his magic with each hit.
"Okay, quick brain storm. Does anyone have any ideas how to win?" Yaqut asked curiously, before they saw a tornado of air shoot out of the sky and destroy the snow struture that Tundrama had taken refuge in. Said dragon went back down to the ground, and Naruto dropped the chain barrier of fire to conserve magic. He may have a lot of magic, but fueling the fire of these weapons was highly draining. The fact that magic took more effort for him to use wasn't very good either.
"Not a clue, so lets just beat the dragon until it dies." Rohroh said as he pounced back into the battle, with Muu sighing before following after him. The two of them ran side by side, before the jumped out of the way of another roar of ice. They kept running forward, before they hopped up into the air above the dragon. Muu had his sword at the ready, while Rohroh had his legs ready to kick Tundrama in the head. Naruto sent a wave of chains, set ablaze with flames, at Tundrama when she started to open her mouth to blast them away. Muu used the flames on the chains to increase the damage his sword would do by slamming the broad side of the blade into the chains. The ice armor that was covering the head again shattered, before Rohroh kicked the dragon in the forehead.
The chains were snapped after another moment, before the two adults jumped away before Tundrama could snap at them. The landed back with the group, and energy started to fill their bodies while their wounds began to get healed from a long distance healing spell from Grandeeney. Naruto looked up at the clouds, and as a tornado of wind shot down from the sky towards Tundrama Naruto summoned his wings and flew up on his own with his dagger in hand. Lighting it on fire, he sent a wave of fire towards the roar of the sky dragon and the two attacks combined into a raging inferno of spiralling wind. An uncontrolled blast that was now headed straight towards the ground and Tundrama.
"Oh shit." Naruto whispered to himself before he flew down to the group, and he wrapped them all in chains so and pressed them together. Twenty layers of chains surrounding them, and they still felt the heat as the ball of chains they were wrapped in was assualted by the heat of wave of flames thta was no doubt going on outside. After a few minutes, Naruto unwrapped the chains from them and looked at the world around them.
The flames had spread trhough out the entire valley, and gotten rid of all the ice and snow. The lake was showing, and steaming with hot water. The ground was covered in water that went up to there ankles, and they all heard the sound of Tundrama growling.
"Do you know how long it took to cover these mountains with snow and ice! After killing you it will take so much time covering them again!" Tundrama shouted at them, and every saw the slighgtly burnt form of the ice dragon. No longer did she have any ice armor, and for some reason it wasn't growing back either. Meaning that either something was stopping her, or that she could grow it back in these conditions.
"Break apart!" Muu ordered, and everyone jumped apart just as a beam of ice froze the water they had been standing in over. They kept running away as the ice started to spread, while Naruto himself ran towards Tundrama. Tundrama watched him run to her, and the determined look on his face caused her eyes to widen when she remembered another Fanalis from the past.
"I won't allow you to cause harm to these people dragon." A woman with long red hair said with a determined look in her red eyes. She wore the silver armor over her body, and in her hands were both a silver sword and a silver dagger. On her left arm was a silver shield, and around her wrists were the Amol Selseira, and standing out against her silver armor was a white tiger shaped aura. She radiated power untold, as the image of a white tiger appear behind her.
'This boy is just like that woman! The one that sealed away so many dragons!' Tundrama thought as a white tiger aura started to from around Naruto as he forced magic through his body. Raising his leg high in the air, Naruto kicked the ground and shot up to knee the dragon in the chest. The wind was knocked out of the dragon, and her beam of ice stopped completely.
"I won't allow you to bring harm to my people dragon!" Naruto shouted out, before he swung his arms and wrapped his chains around her body before lighting them ablaze again. Naruto yanked on the chains and started to tighten them around her, before he use grinned and set the dagger in his hand ablaze. Naruto felt two hands on his wrists, and saw both Myron and Muu grabbing his arms with smiles on their faces.
"I have always wanted to go dragon tipping." Muu said with grin as the three of them pulled on the chains, and the dragon had to struggle to stay standing. The three of them were starting to get pulled towards the dragon, but they heard the sound of four people running through water and saw Morgiana, Rohroh, Yaqut, and Razol running towards the side of the dragon in unison.
"Need a hand?" Yaqut asked as they all jumped into the air towards the dragon.
"Or a foot?" Razol finished as they all kicked Tundrama in the side and knocked her over on her other side. The flaming chains started to dig further into Tundrama, and the amount of magic it was taking to pierce through her scales with his flames was starting to rise as ice tried to form over her body to protect her scales from the opposite element. Naruto's body was already starting to feel the strain of using the Byakko Mode again without Wendy to supply him with a body boost, and not to mention the fact he just used it without preparing for it.
He didn't even know how he was using it, just that he was using it.
"Naruto, stop using magic!" Rohroh shouted when he first smelled Naruto's blood, and the others looked at him to see that Naruto had started bleeding from his mouth and eyes. The strain of having his magic drains this much by the flames of his magic tool, and keep up the aura without help was starting to get him to empty. While a HUMAN mage can have their magic reach zero and live, reaching zero for a Fanalis could be fatal. Most of the time ending in near-death, death, or a coma. Using the CHAINS of the Amol Selseira barely took any magic, but lighting them on fire took a large amount of magic. Even his dagger took less magic to light on fire, while the longer the chains the more magic it took.
"Not. Just. Yet." Naruto whispered to himself as the flames on the chains got thicker, and larger. The heat started to truly burn through the ice and scales of the ice dragon, and dig through the flesh. Morgiana and Razol were holding down the wings of the ice dragon, while Rohroh and Yaqut were holding down the neck and tail of the dragon to keep her from fighting back.
Hey, they were Fanalis. If they couldn't kill something one on one, they killed it as a team. There was no such thing as creating during a hunt, besides guns. That was plain unfair for everyone involved, even nmore so those mages that used magic bullets. Being a team was what it meant to be apart of their hunting tribe, their race were a pack through and through. Even though they may be far away, they were still a pack.
"Just a little more." Muu said as they pulled harder, and Naruto pushed his arms out and loosened the chains around Tundrama, before he yanked on them even tighter than before and used the speed of the chains digging into her to make them burn through the insides of the dragons that much quicker. Blood shot out of the dragons body, before she was sliced to pieces by the flaming chains.
Blood covered all of those around her, and Naruto stopped using magic as his aura faded away on instinct. He fell to his knees as the water around them was dyed blood red, and he winced when he felt the condition that being so low on magic caused him. That and the strain on his body from his instinctual use of the Byakko Mode.
"We did it!" Muu shouted in joy as he picked up the tired Naruto, and the annoyed Myron and gave them both hugs. Razol was dancing around in victory, while Morgiana was smiling to herself as Rohroh gave her a form pat on the back to congradulate her for helping in the killing of Tundrama. Hearing the flapping of wings, Grandeeney started to come down from the sky as she landed on the water and looked at the all.
"Yes, as a team you did well to do away with that unsightly human hater." Grandeeney commented, before Myron looked at the drgaon with a hard look.
"Why did you help us during the fight. I thought you were only going to heal the injured when they needed it?" Myron asked the dragon, and the sky dragon just ignored her in favor of wrapping her tail around the barely awake Naruto. Yeah, he had overdone himself in trying to use his Amol Selseira to such a degree. The veins on his body were throbbing, but he was still alright for the moment as long as he didn't use even an ounce of magic until he had healed some more.
"I helped because you would have all eventually have lost if I didn't. Anyway, I should take you all back to your camp now. I will answer your questions then Naruto." Grandeeney told the boy with the alia Byakko. Naruot grinned lightly when she placed him on her back, and the others jumped up on top of her. Morgiana landed right next to Naruto, and she looked like she was worried about him but didn't know what to say.
'Finally, I can put Wendy's mind at ease when I see her again.' Naruto thought with a smile on his face, even though he was in a LOT of pain. His eyes were still bleeding, but other than that he was fine. He had teammates to actually fight with him this time, so he didn't get near as injured this time. They covered for each other during this fight, and when one was about to get hurt the others tried to help them out. The fact that their numbers helped them simply because there were more of them was a good thing.
"I can't wait until we get back to camp!" Razol shouted with a grin on her scarred face, and she and Yaqut linked arms and started to dance together with matching grins on their faces at the thought of the fun they would have celebrating the killing of a dragon.
They were getting drunk tonight!
Chapter End.
Tundrama is stornger than Titus, but also more arrogant. If dragons can watch their slayers from across the world, then they would know that somebody had killed Titus. Also, one on on Tundrama would have destroyed any of the Fanalis in a fight, but they all worked together. Much like a pack animal taking on a larger animal, but these pack animals had the power behind their punches to injure her alone. That Fanalis Women in the mini flashback is part of a sub-plot that will go along with the main plot.
