"Hey Matt, what do you think is going to happen to the 400 building?"
After getting one of his teammates to school and going through half of his classes, Matt was finally able to have a normal lunch with two of his friends.
"I'm not sure," replied the swordsman. "How bad is the damage Seth?"
"Really bad, they won't even let us near the place," answered Seth.
"Such a shame they couldn't come again."
Matt looked at his friend and laughed at the idea of another event like that happening.
"Andres. If something like that ever happens again, we might not even be around by the time everything is under control."
"Yeah I know," said Andres. "Still, what event do you think will happen today?"
Matt looked around and saw that many people weren't at school today. "I think today is Senior Ditch Day."
"Well that's no fun. What should we do?" asked Seth.
"I have an idea."
Matt and Seth looked at Andres. "It better not be-"
"Nope. Who wants to play a game of D&D?" asked Andres as he pulled out some of his D&D stuff.
The trio remained silent for a few moments before snatching a pair of dice and heading into an empty classroom.
"Start us off, Andres."
"Okay then-"
He was cut off by a loud roar and another explosion.
"Uh-oh."
The trio ran outside and saw a large red dragon spraying fire in the air. Surrounding the dragon were several flaming golf carts and an enormous boulder blocking the exit.
"Um, what should we do?" asked Andres.
"All I wanted to do was play D&D not fight a real dragon," commented Andres.
"We fight it."
Seth and Andres turned to Matt and noticed that he was carrying a large gold and red sword along with a few other weapons.
"Take your pick. The others won't miss them."
The duo looked at the small pile of weapons before selecting a weapon.
"Gaia's bow. Looks awesome to me."
Andres picked up the Earth element bow and joined up with the swordsman. Seth looked through the weapons but was unable to pick up a weapon before the dragon shot a fireball at the trio.
"I'm going to stay out of this one. You guys take care of the dragon."
The dragon sprayed the team with fire but Matt managed to dodge the blast while Andres hid behind the enormous rock.
Once the fire stopped though, Andres emerged from the boulder and fired several shots at the dragon while Matt slammed his sword into the ground and watched as a large amount of water hit the dragon.
"Andres! It's a fire dragon! Use water or ice based attacks!" yelled Matt. Andres nodded and released several ice arrows at the dragon which caused it to howl in pain. Matt then cut the dragon several times with his sword before dodging the dragon's swipe and allowing his sword to disappear. For a moment, nothing happened but then, several blades that resembled Matt's sword appeared. They were all in various sizes and made of light. All the swords then struck the dragon in various locations before they disappeared and reappeared as Heaven's Gate in Matt's hands.
Meanwhile, Andres was looking for a way to beat the dragon and noticed a green flower-like icon in front of him. "Gaia bloom? What is that?"
Andres instinctively stabbed his bow into the floor and watched as the symbol appeared and multiplied on the dragon. "It did nothing."
Suddenly, the dragon roared out in pain and attempted to hit Andres with a powerful blast of fire but missed. The dragon repeated the same attack several times but all of the shots missed the archer.
"What the-" commented Andres. "How was its aim this bad?"
"It's tired Andres!" yelled Matt. "That skill you just used made it tired."
"How does that affect the dragon?" asked Andres.
"When anything is tired, their accuracy and evasion ability decreases," explained Matt. "Now's the time to finish it off. Give it your best shot!"
Andres fired a single arrow that cut through the dragon's throat while Matt stabbed the dragon's chest area.
"Did we get him?"
The dragon continued to roar and spray fire but the only thing coming out from its mouth was smoke.
"Not yet," replied Matt. "It's trying to make it rain hot ash to heal itself."
Andres reached for another arrow but found none.
"I'm out of arrows!"
"I know," replied Matt. "We better stand back and-"
The swordsman was cut off by a loud gunshot and the roar of thunder. Moments later the dragon fell down dead while an immense amount of water poured down and put out all the fires.
"You guys alright?" asked Seth.
"Yeah we're fine," replied Matt. "I see you've taken the Super Snipe gun."
"Yeah. I managed to grab it before the dragon attacked us but forgot about it," said Seth. "On the other hand, who made it rain? I'm sure the weather forecast said that there was no chance of rain today."
"I don't know," replied Matt. "Andres, do you have the Cloudburst skill?"
"What's that?" asked Andres. "How do you know what skills you have?"
"Do this," instructed the swordsman. He threw his hand out and several icons appeared.
Andres and Seth followed suit and watched as a few icons appeared.
"Those icons are your skills," informed the swordsman. "You can touch each one of them to learn more about each skill and how to cast them."
"Nope I don't have Cloudburst. What does that look like and what does it even do?" asked Andres.
"Same here," said Seth.
Matt got out some chocolate, broke off a few pieces and distributed it to the group. "It's a water type skill that causes rain in any terrain. Even indoors," explained the swordsman. "Since none of you have that skill, I think someone came onto campus without permission."
"Hey Matt. Wasn't that staff part of the stuff you left out for us?" asked Seth.
Matt turned to where Seth was pointing at and saw someone holding a white crystal staff with wings on it.
"Yeah but I thought I put all the stuff away as soon as I jumped into battle," responded Matt.
"Perhaps you left a few out," suggested Andres.
"Good to see that you guys are alright," said the person holding the staff. "Man this storm is picking up."
Matt facepalmed. "Edward, what did you do?"
Edward smiled and replicated his most recent action. "I just raised this staff up into the air while thinking about rain and all of a sudden, it started raining."
"That's no ordinary staff," said Matt.
"Well, I think that's obvious," said Andres.
"No I mean, that staff is called Seraphim," explained the swordsman. "It's the strongest spell casting staff since it turns some of the user's thoughts into reality."
"So does that mean, it only rained because Edward thought about rain?" asked Seth.
"Yep," answered Matt. "Let's meet up again after school. We all need to talk."
