Prologue
Claws scratched the bare earth underneath it; the creature sniffed the air but found no signs of the home it was at just a moment before. It looked around at the large crater that it has formed on the ground as it landed, and thought about what the impact it would've caused to the monster it was fighting in it's own world:
I was flying over my island in the middle of the Great Western Sea when I saw something cutting through the water below, it looked like a giant metal log, and it looked to be going straight towards the island that I called home. I shrieked and dived straight for it, some small holes appeared in the front and back of the giant metal blade, but I didn't pay any attention to them.
Well not until some flares of fire and smaller tubes of metal came flying at me propelled by wings of fire on their bottoms. I tucked in my wings and went straight through them, they all exploded into large flowers of fire as they impacted with my scales, and I saw little bipedal creatures running around on the top of the metal water blade heading for my home. I sucked up as much fire given to me by the fire flowers that exploded in my face. A thin barrier of air swirled around me and I could feel my features sharpen, and the air around me cut itself apart to go around my form.
There was a giant boom sounding across the Great Western Sea, and I felt the very tip of my nose touch the cold metal, and for a split second I felt all of the life forms on the ship, life that would be evaporated in the resulting explosion that would've happened, but then my vision went black and everything hurt.
When I woke up this green expanse of hills and large flying area was a shocker. There was also the fact that this place didn't smell or look like home, but it was still something and I was hoping that it wasn't going to be an annoying place like my home. I mean yeah conflict is expected but what am I going to do here, what an I going to eat? Where am I going to sleep? What is there to eat on this planet anyways? And where were the creatures of this planet? I wanted to know what I was dealing with.
I looked up and saw only one sun in the sky. I looked West and saw that there was also only one moon here. My home planet, or galaxy rather has three suns each blocking the other a little bit as they grew closer to each other. But it did only have a half moon, it got blown up by constant meteors, and then a lucky asteroid, but it wasn't blown towards my planet, but rather still in the orbit that it was originally, but it goes a little faster than my ancestors said it went before the asteroid. Sadly none of them are alive anymore, and I can't ask them further questions about me, my heritage, what I can do, and what the past was like even further than I had already asked my father and mother...who were also eventually slaughtered by the creatures I was hoping to disintegrate earlier.
"Ey i-s a-th-r Be--t F-r ss T-o Kill" I heard something talking from behind me and that last word got my attention. What wanted to kill me? What was possibly thinking that I was some low level creature that could be easily bested. How dare they think so lowly of me. When it comes to language that word always sound the same 'kill', it's tone is of disgust, hatred, or anticipation mixed with sadism. It's disgusting how lowly hunters think of their prey.
The two Bipedal creatures standing behind me had some interesting weapons, the one on the left has black fur in the top of their head, their eyes matching well with it, a very dark soft armor and then some king of thick metal over the chest, arms, knees, hands, and an empty head-shaped piece in its soft paws. The other one was thinner on the legs and arms, but there was still a little bit of meat underneath, unlike the other one, which has a lot of meat under everything. The second one had Sun like hair and opposite eyes, though still lighter than creature one's, it didn't have armor on, but it did have a long steel blade in it's paws, long from the ground to creature two's hip. Creature one didn't have anything in it's paws, and that was a little confusing.
I was about to go into a more sturdy form when the second one came at me, and boy it was slow. I crawled to the side on my belly, just to irritate it further and after the blade hit the grass it's eyes widened and it looked over to see me tauntingly smiling at it from the side. Creature one was smart and waited until I dodged it's partner to come at me, but a swing of my tail and it was sent flying into the tree-line. I decided to see what the inside of this creature looked like, to make sure that I could eat it and it's eyes widened a little further. It must've seen the change in my eyes from Forest green to Blood Red, and that was because I could see every blood vessel, artery, and flesh area in their entire body. Down to the blood vessels going through it's weak bipedal bones underneath all of that flesh and blood.
It fixed it's face and rushed at me, but I just crawled a little left of where their body was and when they were right in-front of me I went in for the kill it's flesh and armor was easily cut through by my teeth, and the bones that were in it's midsection fractured and collapsed as it's top half entered my mouth. I looked up at Creature two, and saw that it was the same as creature one, blood and fur and insides. I looked down as the two legs, still connected to the hips of creature one fell to the knees and then to the ground like it had been shot but an invisible force, or stabbed. Either way it was very comical and I remembered that I still had the top half in my mouth. It's blood was sweet, sweeter than I was used to and I really, really liked it. I enjoyed the sound and feeling of it's bones crunching and snapping under the force of my jaw and teeth, its flesh parting around my teeth, and it's blood going down my throat.
The Second Creature disappeared, and while I did want to have another taste, I didn't feel like hunting it. I was in a foreign land after all. Might as well use my skills to explore, and so I turned away from the edge of the forest and shot into the sky. The land looked the same from up here as it did below, but there was a large city behind me, I could tell by all of the tall structures and clear shapes in the structures, and yet they wielded blades. I turned around and headed for the city, looking down to see if I could see Creature one from earlier, but I had no chance at trying to get them because by the time I did see them they were in the creature cities' area of influence and I did not want to be caught trying to attack a place that I barely understood.
I saw a huge wall in the center of the city and as I flew over it there was a large boom and I saw a tiny object flying towards me at a speed that I wasn't used to. It was too late to react as it slammed into my left wing and the area of impact froze over. As expected I screeched in pain and plummeted toward the center of the city, another small projectile froze my right wing and now I couldn't move either of them, plus I was not used to feeling this kind of pain before. It felt like my insides were on fire, and yet the cause was freezing cold...ice. They had ice weapons too, and I was not a big fan of the city at the moment.
I came to a stop in some kind of city center, the hard rock and dirt created a wave around me as I impacted and slid a couple dragon-length's away from my impact zone. I looked around as soon as I was able to stand and saw that I was already surrounded by bipedal creatures in metal armor, some holding blades, others holding long metal sticks with blades at the pointed end of them. I looked at my wings to see what the damage was, and decided to use the fire that I had store up earlier to use. I bathed my wings in sun-like heat until my reserves had run out, and when the smoke cleared, it was still there.
Clinging to the surface of my wings like a second membrane, and it was superiorly annoying, so I decided to use the very thing that it was. I started to draw the air into my throat, slowly freezing it into a liquid form of fire that I used to freeze things in layers of ice. As I was doing this a female bipedal creature came up to me and started to speak.
"My my my, wh-- d oo e ave ere" it started circling me like I was prey, annoying creature. "It looks ike we ave a new sort of creature in our hands." I was starting to understand their language now, and it sounded surprisingly similar to my home bipedal creatures' language that they spoke. I watched her as she circled me, there was this annoying white creature in the back-ground that wouldn't stop making noise, and I was getting ready to smack it. I closed my mouth, stopping the air-flow into my special organs for transfiguration process', and then I turned towards my wings and expelled it in a steady stream onto each of them. I only needed to spray the top, and the process began. The liquid started to harden and freeze once in the open air, and as it did I could feel the earlier ice underneath start to dissolve into it and become a part of it.
I flexed my wings and the ice covering them exploded outwards in a spray of harmless fragments, of which some of the creatures cowered from, as if they were expecting it to be more destructive, but I folded my wings and returned my attention to the female creature circling me before the sound of that Annoying White CREATURE distracted me. I whipped my tail around at sonic speed expecting it and a couple of the bipedal creatures along with it to go flying backwards, but I hit a solid wall of muscle instead. Stopping my tail and giving me a shock of surprise along with the resounding boom and dust spread from the effect.
I withdrew my tail and turned to face a giant white creature replacing the small annoying white one making a racket earlier, but instead of yipping at me it was now growling and drooling. I stomped my left foreleg and my scales started to expand and harden, drawing in the things around me to make them into armor, my own blood mixed into the sheet covering my body and the crystals from my breath covered my already blood-mixed armor, and once I felt everything harden I shook myself from head to tail, causing giant shards of ice to go flying everywhere, making the creatures dive aside, and some were too slow and got injured or impaled. The result was a mix of metal, ice, earth, and hardened liquid fire, all mixed with a little of my blood to make it stronger.
My size doubles during this process and everything I have also doubles in size, from claws to spines, and I felt the white creature in-front of me get ready to spring, but it was stopped by two commands. The first was from the female bipedal originally circling me, now standing still looking at me like a large prize, and the other bipedal female who was standing behind the beast in-front of me issued another order and the White Beast in-front of me growled a last time before shrinking down and jumping into the second bipedal female's arms. Its eyes still narrowed and waiting for me to attack and cause it to ignore orders.
"Face me fearsome Beast!" the first bipedal female yelled at me and I glanced at her slightly, still keeping an eye on the white thing and it's female master. "You needn't worry about those two any longer, they are under my orders and will not attack unless either I tell them to or unless you attack them." Eventually, seeing that I wasn't going to move, the female bipedal walked along my left flank and stopped in-front of me and the other female and its white transforming beast that I had no idea how to deal with.
I looked down at her and decided to look past what I could see about her at the moment, my vision turned slightly purple and I saw yellow, greens, grey-whites, some slight reds from the male bipedal's surrounding me, but the two females in-front of me were the most interesting. The one behind the first had a deep blood-red aura...anger, it was holding a deep hatred about something, and the white beast in it's arms was plain black. But what was really interesting was the female in-front of me, she had a dark purple aura, something that I saw only in unrelenting evil and unchanging habits: killing, torture, love of giving pain and ruling over others through fear. I admired it, and as my vision returned to my normal state I saw two long swords made of ice lengthened out from nothing, straight from her paws.
