The very next morning was just like the day before. Father, Abiagael, and I laid in the sun after our swim letting the suns warmth dry us off. I started to doze off when I felt something fall onto my chest. I opened my eyes to see a dragon scale attached to a string making a necklace. I sat up holding the scale in the palm of my hand examing it. It was square shape dark green mixed with a light brown color. I looked over at father who was lying behind my sister and pretending to be asleep but the smile on his betrayed him. I looked over to my sister who had my scales twin on a string as well. We smiled at each other than at once we got to our feet at ran at our father jumping into the air landing on his neck hugging him tight. He than got to his feet causing us to dangle around his neck.

"We got you father,"Abiagael said laughing.

"So you do but for how long," father said a devilish smile spreading on his face.

"Uh-oh," I laughed as he started jumping around swinging us side to side. All three of us were laughing so care free as we played. Father jumped around trying to shake us off while we held on tight not even moving till he suddenly stopped causing Abiagael to slip off his neck and land on her but with a loud thump. Father stayed still looking down the river. His face was dead serious. Abiagael and I stayed quite. Father than grabbed me from his neck setting me on the ground than nudging both of us to the cave with his head.

"Go into the cave and hide," he whispers to us.

"Papa,"Abiagael said hugging his nose.

"Don't worry my Abiagael," he said kissing her head, "Stay hidden and put your armor on."

He nodded to me and I nodded back. I grabbed Abiagaels' hand and we ran into the cave rushing to put our armor on and grab our weapons. We stayed close to the entrance peeking out at the river. I saw father turn colors and shape to look like the rocks around him. I saw a horse walking in the water than I ran further into the cave Abiagael right behind me. Abiagael and I held our weapons at the ready. Abiagael her ax and I the sword I had gotten from her. We heard voices out side than a scream than father walked into the cave placing himself in front of us.

"Father," I said as a spear came through the falls but he grabbed it before it came close to his chest. Abiagael and I let out a breath. He smiled at us and we smiled back.

"Is that the best you can do," he shouted than started breaking the spear.

"Catch," he yelled throwing the broken spear out of the cave.

"Girls get to the back of the cave and stay behind me," he said stepping back. We both nodded walking backwards keeping our weapons at the ready to use at any moment. I grabbed a shield that was laying on the ground. Holding it in a defensive position.

"You know I've got quite the collection of victims in here!"

"I won't be added to it," a male voice yelled from outside.

"I've given you my finale warning!" I held my sword tight stealing myself for a fight with who ever came through that fall shield close to my body. Father gave a low growl as the dark figure of a knight came into the cave using his shield with dragon horns on it as cover from the water. As he entered father let out a blast of fire.

"A little damp for fire isn't it," the knight yelled as the fiery blast died.

"Why must you knight-errands out to make a name for yourselves always pick on us dragons," father yelled keeping his body where it hide my sister and I.

"I don't need a name," the knight replied, " And I a collection of my own!"

Father made a sound of discussed, "You're one who kills dragons for money!"

I let out low growl as well did Abiagael next to me. Men who killed my fathers kind for money made my blood boil.

"It's honest enough work. One must earn a livening."

"Yes one must live. Well since you seek a profit might as well begin."

"Oh don't flatter yourself it's not the profit it's the please."

My famillies rage boiled even more at his words. I wanted to run my sword through his most sensitive area than his heart.

"Perhabs less profitable and more costly than you think," father said than flew out of the cave. Abiagael and I stayed hidden till we heard the knight ride off after our father. We ran out of the cave I whistled and my horse came running to my sister and I. I tossed my shield to the side as we jumped onto him and rode after our father and the knight. We chased after the two coming to a grassy field where we saw a horse without a saddle but still had its bridle on. There was a trail of flatten grass that lead into the woods. As we rode into the woods we saw the knight flying through the trees on his saddle tied to a rope.

"How do you like the ride so far," we heard father yell as the knight crashed into a tree causing him to spin around. Abiagael laughed at the sight of the knight flying. I chuckled as well till the knight came to two trees close together lodging his saddle between them causing father to crash into a dirt clearing. A small amount of panick shot through me with a whole lot of anger.

"Her sister," I reached into my saddle bag and pulled out two masks that cover up our mouths and nose. They were a hard leather with wolf teeth forming a mouth on mine and boar tusks on my sisters.

"What are these for," she asked as I stopped my horse.

"To hide ourselves from our enemies," I said dismounting my horse, " Also to scare them so we won't have to hurt them."

She nodded and we both put on the masks. We heard a donkey come our way and heard a male voice muttering something to himself. We ran to the clearing hiding behind a tree. Father had a rope tied to his left back leg that he was trying to get off but wasn't having much luck. Other than that he didn't seem to be injured. The knight a walked to my father his sword drawn ready to strike.

"Oh you're good," he walking towards him, "Haven't had this sort of challenge in some time."

"Nor likely to again," father said flexing out four curved blade counseled in the tip of his tail swinging it at the knight who borved and weaved avoiding his tail. He tried to strike at fathers tail with his sword but missed. Father pushed him against a tree swing his tail the cut off the Knights head but the knight slide down the tree causing father to miss his head and cut the tree clean in half. The knight ran from fathers blows as he brought them down word to the ground the knight tripping every other step falling to the ground then quickly getting back up. The knight ducked behind a large fallen tree as father brought another blow only to have his tail become stuck in the trees trunk.

"Now," I whispered to Abiagael. We ran out from our hiding place as the knight got to his feet only to bring his sword up to block my sword as I jumped over the tree bring my sword for a downward strike. He blocked my blade pushing me back only to have to dodge my sisters ax as she swung it just missing his abdomen. I ran at him from the side swinging my sword left to right, he back stepped each swing then when I did a spin attack he blocked it with his sword. Our swords locked for a second then I kicked him in the stomachs knocking the wind out of him causing him to take a step back. With the wind knocked out of him father got closer to him swiping his claws at him. He managed to roll away from the attack. When he regained his breath he looked my sister and I up and down than looked over at my father.

"A title over confident aren't we," he said than pointed his sword at my sister and I, "And what are those things?"

"Hardly but if you win you will be out of work," father said his voice stren.

"And 'Those things'," he said pointing at my sister and I proudly, "Are my two daughter. Who I have trained to fight as well as any knight on this Earth."

"That's right," Abiagael said charging at the knight swinging her ax at the him. He blocked her blow while I came at him from the side holding my sword low to the ground readying to swing it at his legs. He saw me coming out of the corner of his eyes. He pushed my sisters ax upward than kicked her in the stomachs causing her to fall onto her back. As I came close to him he swung his sword to knock my sword off course. Before he could I jumped into the air about five feet round house kicking his left check. He stumbled to the left at the force of my kick a small amount of blood trickled down his check from a small cut from my boot.

"Is that all you got warrior," I mocked circling him dragging the dip of my sword on the ground, "Not very challenging are you Dragon Murder."

"I will not stop till I have rid the world of every last dragon," the knight said wiping some of the blood from his cheek, "Even if I have to get past you two."

All at once my family yelled furiously, "He/I am/is THE LAST ONE!"

Furiously my sister jumped into the air bringing her ax downward at the knight. He managed just at the last second to block her attack. I followed after bringing my sword down onto his as well. The combined strength of my sister and I forced him down to one knee. As we added more force to our blades he some how managed to pull his strength together pushing our blades up and slowly getting to his feet. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Abiagael start to shake from trying to match the Knights strength. I too began to shake from the force he was placing on our blades.

"Ava Abiagael jump back," father said to us. Using to force the knight was placing on our blades to push ourselves back just as father blasted a ball of fire at the knight. He quickly ducked behind a pile of wood. The blast shot the wood into the the air. As it rained down the knight still stood unskaved by fathers attack. Only a smoking of wood on his shoulder.

"You're just trying to save your scaly hide with tricks and getting others to fight your battles," he said smuggly knocking the piece of wood of his shoulder.

"Haven't you noticed the picking are rather slim these days," father said my sister and I stepping closer to him never taking our eyes off the knight or lowering our weapons.

"I got me one just the other day," the knight said with a triumphant grin on his face.

"So it was you who killed the Scarred One. She and I were the last."

"We are sorry father," Abiagael said a burning fire in her eyes.

"We were not able to save her when this murder attacked her," I said taking a step forward.

Father placed his right hand in front of us still watching the knight, "How much didn't her tattered carcass put in your purse?"

"That's none of your business."

"Couldn't have been very much," Abiagael yelled at him. Father nudged us to move back behind him.

"And you'll kill me for sport and when there are no more dragons left to slay how will you make a living knight."

I saw where the knight was stepping and I was glad I wore a mask hiding my smile.

"Shut up," the knight yelled. Father swung his leg pulling the rope tied to it upward right into the Knights crouch launching him front flipping into the air and landing on his back with a painful groan.

"Ha," my sister and I laughed.

"Abiagael Ava look away," father shouted back at us as he roared dislocating his jaw. Whenever he made a kill he alaways told me and Abiagael to to look away. We quickly turned our backs to him. He never wanted us to see him take a life whether it be a human or an animal. He always told us to look away.
