Chapter 4: Intruders Destruction
Note: Some people have been asking me if I can be in their books as a character-I really don't mind! In fact, I'd love to be any of your books, so don't be afraid to put me in ^^
"With our backs to the wall
The darkness will fall
We never quite thought we could lose it all
Ready, aim, fire! Ready, aim, fire!
An empire's falling in just one day
You close your eyes and the glory fades
Ready, aim fire! Ready, aim, fire away!"
-Imagine Dragons, Ready Aim Fire.
Syncrasis POV
"Ssssssyncrassssisssss" a voice hisses beside me, and I jump out from my deep slumber, peering into the darkness, to spot two glowing red eyes staring right back.
"Israphel" I respond stiffly, pushing the covers back and arising from the bed. It was an old thing, small and uncomfortable, scruffy white linen covers and a blue mattress with no cover, springs poking me every five seconds, a stiff white pillow, torn in some places and it was so small, you had to curl up to fit in it.
"It is time to take your pet for a test drive" he snickers, lurking in the shadows, thought the palest light was filtering through a small vent in the shoebox of a room, lighting up flecks of dust twirling by.
"I thought we were going to take them by surprise" I muse, dusting some of the dust off my clothes-I slept in them, since I had no new ones.
"We have already dessstroyed a village, and they have collected Dragonfire-they know what issss happening. Might assss well make an entranccce."
Nodding in confirmation, I stroll over to the old wooden door practically hanging off its hinges, and I slip through the small crack, my footsteps echoing on the wooden planks.
"Good morning Kaz!" came the cheery voice beside me, and I glance sideways lazily.
"Duncan" I greet him, smiling lightly when he bows.
"I am guessing you are taking the specimen out to test it?" he asks curiously, walking in step with my feet
"Yes. Any news on your attempt to update, upgrade and clone it?" I ask.
"Not yet, your Majesty, still working on it. I was actually wondering if I could ask a favour?" he requests, and I stop, turning to him slowly.
"Go on" I murmur, folding my arms. Mortals were unpredictable, and I was just as curious as Mexxy was.
"Well...you know...I...well..." he stutters and I sigh impatiently.
"I was wondering if you could spare Tia and bring her to me" he blurts out.
Tilting my head curiously, I frown at him uncertainly.
"And why would I do that?" I say, slightly more harshly that I should have
"Well...I want to see how quartgods work. She will be my experiment and I could possibly find away to make both quartgods and demigods stronger." he babbles.
"And you want to get together with her" I sigh, and he turns beetroot red.
"N-no my lady! W-well..."
"I will do what you request. You can do what you want with her after that. Breed with her, torture her, do what you want with her." I snap, before storming off to the cells, angry memories of the bitch clouding my mind.
Note: It might be slightly glitchy here for some reason. I don't know why. Refresh page one if it is :)
The rumble of the dragon's snores vibrate under my feet through the floor as I pace down the stone brick steps to the dungeon entrance. It was massive, the size of four houses stacked on top of each other and the width of two villager farms.
Red as blood, the dragon snorted as it came to, and it blinked its huge eyes in the dim light.
"Hello" I smile, walking straight over to it.
The dragon rumbles again, slowly rising up to its full height.
"I need you to destroy some more things for me." I continue, raising a hand out, placing my palm flat before slowly lowering it.
The dragon follows my command, dipping its neck low and I climb on, smirking at the feel of sitting atop the huge beast.
"Fly" I command it.
And with one huge gust of its wings it took off into the air, letting out a roar as it soared through the gateway, destroying it instantly, and it flew towards the light of the sun.
Tia's POV
Oh yes, Syncrasis was there alright.
But what Deamon had failed to mention was that there was a massive 70 foot large red dragon flapping away as she smirked at us in a smug look, sitting atop the dragons neck.
"Mummy, is that a dragon?" Jack gasps.
"Yes" I whisper, holding them close. If that dragon even looked at them I'd take its eyes out.
"Greetings, my old friends!" Kaz called out from the dragon, stroking it absentmindedly.
"Syncrasis. What business do you require?" Ridge answers stiffly.
"Oh, I just want to bargain with you. Make you a deal, you could say. Though it will be better than anything old Mexxy thought of" she grins, smirking at me. "So Tia? How are you missing your father after you shot him?"
My teeth grind together. It was still hard to think about Mexxy, remembering him dying. I sometimes had repetitive dreams of me shooting him again and again, and each time I would be laughing manically. In the dreams, I was the evil one. Sometimes, he would shoot me. That was when I would wake up in a cold sweat and Ridge would tug me into his arms, holding me close; he was used to my nightmares now.
"Bit of a shame, him rotting away in the ground. We could of ruled the world, him and I" she grins, dreamily gazing into the distance as if she was actually thinking about it.
"What bargain do you speak of?" Ridge asks through gritted teeth.
"Throw down your weapons and bow before me. Let me take your castle and become the queen. Or else I'll kill all of you and your people, and torture you all forever."
Silence looms over us, till only the howling of the wind at such a high place in the clouds and the beating and occasional snorts of the dragon can be heard.
"You know our answer. Leave this place." I spit out, clutching my twins sharply.
She tilts her head at me, eyes sympathetic. "Those are some nice children you have there. Would be a same if something happened to them..." she giggles, and the dragon dives forward towards us quicker than my eye could follow.
My hands shoot out and as soon as I make contact with the stiff, rough red nose of the dragon, my power activates, the energy of five antimatter bombs running down my arm as I let it loose into the dragon's skin.
The explosion sounds so loudly, my ears ring. The twins both flinch, running to their dad, crying at the noise and the fear of the dragon. Everything was happening so quickly I barely had enough time to make sense of it all.
I had been harnessing my power, learning how to use it at will. I had made good progress, but it was still only really effective when I was in a life or death situation. Like now.
The dragon roars, flying backwards, flapping rapidly to keep airborn before its belly turns orange, its cheeks puff out and Dragonfire shoots from its mouth, consuming my vision as flames lick at my clothes.
Pain erupts from all over my body, but I do not back down. Gritting my teeth, I hold in my scream, my hands trembling.
When the fire finally passes, I maintain a poker face, and simply brush a few bits of ash and fire flakes off my clothes which I quickly fixed.
The dragon growls at me threateningly, and I hover in mid air, moving towards it.
"I know you can understand human speech" I begin. The dragon rumbles, looking blankly at me.
"Back down, or we will show you no mercy" I growl and its answer is to let out an earsplitting roar, its teeth snapping at me.
Turning invisible, I dodge away from the razor sharp death weapons, but only just.
"You see this dragon right here?" Kaz taunts, patting the dragon on the head.
"Well given its size I can barely not see it" I murmur and she scowls at me before continuing.
"This dragon will be your end. As we speak, we are building an army that will destroy you all" she announces.
"You think you are all safe, cooped up in your little castle in the clouds. You think you're safe, and you've had your happy ending. But you've had your little time in the sun. It's time for MY happy ending. All of you will be bowing before me, maybe not now, but soon. Soon, you will all be mine to do as I wish, and I will torture you all until you recognize me as your queen. Be prepared, not that it will help you. I was simply giving you a head start..." she purrs, before her head snaps to the sound of pattering feet.
"Leave us alone, you stupid idiot!" Pansy shouts, her tiny fists curling up. Her eyes were a deep shade of purple, swirling like a vortex.
In answer, the dragon lets out another load of Dragonfire, and Ridge cries out in alarm, flying forward to grab the girl.
"Pansy!" was the last thing I heard before the Dragonfire envelops them both.
My brain reacts quicker than my body. Spinning round, I fly towards the dragon, and I was well aware of the city well below us, probably watching the commotion in the skies.
I could not endanger my people.
Crying out, I slam my fist into the dragons eye, who stops the fire it had been spouting and snapped its head to me.
Diving out of the way of its gaping jaw, I get hit in the face by Kaz as she whacks me, snickering as I tumble down from the sky, rapidly trying to become airborn. As soon as I do and turn round, the dragon is diving towards me, roaring at me in triumph as it opens its jaws, metres from my body.
There was nothing I could do except let the dragon consume me, its jaws snapping together as darkness envelops me.
