The Nine Dragons The Dragon King Part Thirteen

 The Fourth Unit


After a good rest at half past three, they all got to their feet. Loc could see the first heads as the sun started going down and low on the horizon with the first stars faintly coming out.

She looked at Elijah. He nodded and soon she was on his back and in the air and she looked down. She counted the hydras on the first row and found ten and only nine rows.

Ninety. Good. We can win this.

“How many?”

“Ninety.”

“Significantly less.”

“Getting dark. Now get down.”

So they were back on the ground.

“Same plan, but we need to get as much fire lit on the battlefield as we can after the battle. That way we will be able to see better.”

“Right.”

So all the eagles set off and all of them were in the sky. The eagles loaded their bows and fired the arrows at the eyes of the first row, then the second row and the third row. 

Yet the fourth row looked up and let out a blast of fire. She stopped it and Elijah fired the arrow. Then she parted the fire. Then they returned to firing at the eyes. Then the fifth row let out a blast of fire. They all fired the arrows as she parted the fire. Then they landed in the eyes. Then the sixth row did the same and fired the arrows faster this time.

Then they were able to flick out the arrow and fire at the eyes. Then the seventh row fired as many fireballs at them. She was able to fire at each one of them as the eagles were able to fire at the eyes. That was when the eighth fired fireballs and she fired at them. She did this as fast as she could as the eagles fired at the eyes. Then they were able to see the last. 

She saw the fireballs coming and she fired at them. Yet this was quickly followed by a wave of fire. She parted the fire as the eagles fired the arrows and were able to hit each and every eye.

She took a glance at the sun. It was touching the horizon.

We need to get a move on.

She slipped off and dropped to the ground as fast and silently as she could. She looked at them and nodded.

At this they all charged at the first row as fast and silently as they could. They did all they could to keep their breath as silently as they could. Some had to calm their own fear as they did. They all knew that they could take advantage of the fire as they arrived at the feet of the first row.

Four dived in and then on to the side and slit the front ankles. Then the inner two dived up and slit the stomachs before they dropped. They silently dived on. Then they repeated the action. Then they dived on and did the same.

That was when they saw amber above them. Some quickly dived back as fast as they could. Yet the majority dived out of the way just in time. Yet a few were hit. Their screams gave them away and they were quickly eaten.

Loc then pushed the fire out and at the side of the battlefield. Then she looked at the rest. She gave them the get-your-head-back-in-the-game look. They all nodded as they dived onwards and slit the ankles as they dived up and slit the stomachs. Yet some were in groups of three this time.

They soon saw the fire, which stopped them for a moment and kept their mouths shut. Loc pushed the fire out to the side. Then they dived on and sliced the ankles then dived up and slit the stomach. Then they turned to the sixth row. Then they saw the amber. Loc divided the fire and sent it to the sides. They dived on and sliced the ankles. Then the ones in the centre and slit the stomachs.

That was when the next row let out several fireballs. They all had to silently side to side. Loc hit each and every one of them. Soon the eagles fired at the heads. Causing them to raise their heads and fired fireballs at them as the men dived on and slit the ankles before the inner ones slit the stomachs. Then they saw the next set of fireballs. The eagles fired the arrows the heads raised. Then the men were able to dive on and slit the ankles and slit the stomachs.

Then they came to the last. The eagles struck the heads before the men dived on. Then they quickly slit the ankles and then the stomach. All faster than they had ever before.

After this, the sun fell and night sank in. They spent the rest of the time setting up fires so that they were able to see when the last unit of hydras would strike…

The Nine Dragons The Serpent Dragon Part Three

  The Boa Army Loc was working hard in the field. It was getting to evening time. She had found that she liked working there as a farmer. There was just something so satisfying in doing hard work and made the food taste better and she slept better too. She could see herself doing this for the rest of her life however long that would be, yet she knew that she could not. Regardless of how much she liked the village and the people there. She had noticed that the people there looked almost like the people in her world just without any pupils and they were weaker too. She also noticed that despite this, they were all hard working and nothing was eaten until they had done their work. During this time she had completely recovered her whole energy and strength from all of the battles that she had on that day. She had also been able to gather her thoughts and psychology recovered and was able to have her time of mourning her losses from her rebellion. Yet she found that this might have been...

Doormaze Drage The Orange World Part Twelve

 Plan They arrived at the outskirts of Centrepoint. It seemed like a rocky wasteland. Where there were lava rivers and orange rocks as far as they could see. The clouds were bright orange and thick. They could see there was amber lightning spreading across the sky. “Right. What do we do?” “Well, we are to find a way to get to the castle over there.” “Right, and how do we avoid the lightning?” “We could tunnel down it?” “With what?” “Ah.” “But what about taking down King Infireno?” “Well, we could use the water?” “And how much do we have?” “Seven wineskins.” “And how many do we need?” “Oh.” Doormaze looked down and around and saw the water on the opposite side. “Why don’t we use that?” They all looked at the water. Then at the castle. Their minds ticked over all they were looking at. “Well, we could use the ocean to spread water everywhere?” “But that will take too long.” “Alright, why don’t we gather all the water and-” Hold on, didn’t Dark Curse give me the power of water? Yeah… T...

The Nine Dragons The Life Dragon Part Thirteen

 The Army Against The Last  Loc had a light nap before waking up to see the fakegels, a name she had come up with after the fight and handed the second borns over to the rest of the first borns. She could see the men also taking a light nap, just like she was. Yet she knew that she did not have time to wake them. So she pulled out her sword as she could not be bothered to get Rock and Stone. There was no time. She ran on and on. To her relief she did not see a line this time but she did hear shouting in the homes of mainly women and some arguing men. Don’t focus upon that. Not when I have a fight to win. She turned to see them all in the air. The first thing she did was push the fire out from under her feet and dropped onto the back of the first one. She blasted the left wing then stabbed down. She ran on and dived to another and did the same. She then dived to the next one and did the same again and again. Making sure to keep up the pace and not let up once. Until she was sna...

Doormaze Drage The Orange World Part Eleven

 Water It was a whole week when they arrived at Dalane Lake. They had, by that point, been out of their supplies for a day before they arrived. They were all exhausted and were at their wits ends. So the moment that they saw the sparkling water they ran to it, their minds blinded by their hunger and thirst. The moment that they reached the water they saw the lush crop of fish they smiled. The next thing that they noticed was just how clear it was and yet the whole plain was untouched by any scorch marks. “Hey!” Doormaze called pointing at it all. “I know.” “It was the same with the spot that we were staying at. Some of the fire creatures saw that place they moved on, almost slightly scared. But we did not see anything wrong with the place.” The girls nodded. “So, time to drink.” With that they lined up at the bank of the lake and drank in as much as they could. Then they refilled their water skins. After, they threw out a line. “How many should we get?” “As many as we can. After al...

Doormaze Drage The Orange World Part Three

 Heat Doormaze and Burn were almost drenched in sweat. Yet as far as they have traveled they had not seen a single drop of safe water! Yet they could see that Coalmine was a lot less affected than they were. Must be due to her dragon side… That was when her mind turned over the dream that she had when Dark Curse and Dark Destiny discussed turning her into a dragon. Maybe it won’t be a bad idea after all. Maybe if I was a dragon then this heat will not be so insufferable. ‘Insufferable’? Ahh! Suddenly she could feel the heat of her body becoming hotter and hotter and hotter. Her mouth felt dry yet she could feel it getting dryer and dryer. She tried to keep her mouth closed to keep in as much moisture as possible. But her lungs demanded more air forcing her to open her mouth and this caused her mouth to become dryer and dryer. Soon her tongue looked like a pink desert. Yet this dryness traveled on further and soon her throat became as dry as her tongue making her cough and cough. He...

Scar A Lonely Escort Part Seven

 The Road Morana looked at the map and the sun was high in the sky, which told her that it was noon. So she spotted that the next place that they were best going to was the road that cut between the mountains that would need to go across. So they walked to it. It was the colour of sand and was very gravely. So she looked at her and noticed that her shoes would be able to withstand the road so they walked on. They soon noticed a group of men coming at them. Shd noticed that they all had knives and knuckle spikes on their knuckles. They all wore black and had their faces obscured by a scarf and a hood. They all looked at the two. Then they started to walk towards them. One brought out a spiked ball on a chain and some had a pair of makeshift numb chucks. Yet she could see that they had their gaze locked up on them. Scar looked at Morana. They both knew what they were and both knew better than to give in to them. Morana pulled out her gun. “Well, well, well, who are these beauties?” A...

The Nine Dragons The Dragon Of The Ground Part Fourteen

 The Rock Dragon  Loc and the other two arrived at where the rock dragon lay. It looked at them with glowing amber eyes and had the shape of a turtle that was large. It had a head the shape of a wolf and had a long tail with four rows of spikes shaping an X at the tip. It had a pair of wings tucked away, yet the body had become too large to fly. It may have been able to fly once upon a time, but not now. After years of being glutinous, it had grown too heavy for it’s body. Upon seeing them it charged at them, making it's body sway from side to side rapidly. They all moved out of the way. They ran to opposite corners. Then it turned around and looked at Shiro directly in the eye. Soon Loc ran and went to jump upon it’s back only to feel pain in her side. The next moment she slammed into the walls. Then a spike fell from the roof of the cave. Loc rolled out of the way and soon the itching flared up as she felt her bones being crushed. Yet then she saw another fall and another an...
