#3 of dragon choas

After so long here is chapter 3 guys ^^.


D nods at the black dragon, now interested even more" World? Are you saying this is another world?" He asks now really confused.

Raz nods and chuckles" Yep you're from another world it seems." He comments with a sigh.

"As I said, this world is a war torn place really.......you see 200 years ago this forest you see around you? It used to be just a training ground for travelers, worriers and a place to relax, but all changed when we dragons came in....."He stops for a moment looking at the hole in the wall and takes a deep breath.

"You see when dragons came to this world their king was greedy and a strong one indeed that he convinced dragons his power will make them be treated like loyalty and furs as slaves." He explains with a cold voice.

D shake his head with a sigh and keeps listening" So he started a war with them and well all beauty of this world was altered and most of this forest completely torn apart and with that even ones that have no clue about this dragon king get killed or considered as nothing but fiends of death and demons." He explains further looking at the green dragon that is speechless at this.

"And I forgot to add he has some sort of marking of legends." He adds and growls" A dragon with that mark is supposed to be unique or be able to learn all sorts of magic which makes him dangerous."

"So why aren't you following him anymore Raz?" He asks all of a sudden and curios of this.

"Well, I know what you are thinking, with my power I should be in a high rank and hell I was!" He exclaims then sighs softly" But......one day we were ordered to attack a village where he said are furs who skin dragons alive and are evil all together so I believed him and was leading the forces there." He starts recalling that crazy day.

****** (flashback) ******

"Sir! Let's go!" A dragon private shouts getting Raz's attention" Yes solider let's go kill those sick furs!" He growls with a clenched fist and gets out of the tent with his weapon ready and eyes dark red.

"Any reports on the scouts?" He shouts and then one of his forces comes in "Sir they......got their hearts taken out of their body slowly and then head cut off." He speaks in a shaky voice.

Raz growls at this and slams his foot on the ground" SOLDIERS WE WILL END THOSE DEMONS LIVES NOW!" Then he gats up and gets out of the tent grabbing his weapon and everyone follows his lead. Then with everyone ready to go they charge the village archers killing the guards standing at the gate and then an alarm bell rings the village going into full on panic.

They start killing the armed soldiers and defenseless villagers are let go by Rez himself. He keeps killing through them without any need for magic. Then he notice one of his men get killed by a strange looking husky wearing only light armor.

"Demons are attacking!" The same canine shouts making Raz even more angry" YOU'RE THE DEMONS FOR WHAT HAVE YOU DONE, SO YOU WILL DIE!" He yells angrily stabbing the husky in the chest coldly before he could even see the black dragon coming.

Raz rage reaches crazy limits and starts to behead some of the soldier's leaving them to die before he finds one fox with a strange expression on his face but the dragon was in too much rage to focus and charges at him while his men take out the rest of the village. He grabs the villager and growls down at him" Why are you torturing my kind?! You demons!" He shouts at the fox who yelps shivering then takes a breath being angry himself "We're not!" he shouts back at him trying to defend his village wiggling against him and trying to pull out his sword.

"Then why did I get two bodies with hearts taken out and head cut off like that!" He shouts angrily really boiling right now, only to see a shocking scene that waked him up and his vision isn't red anymore.

A wolf pup was running around he destroyed village and crying loudly looking for help and Raz was about to order one of his men to get that pup out of there, yet what he sees makes him blink wide eyed. One of his men a private it seems slashes the puppy back and leaving him to bleed to death while crying.

"What the......"He mutters silently then the fox sighs softly" You've been tricked dragon, I can see you are not like your men." He sighs and takes a deep breath "The two scouts were killed by a strange looking war general from your army; he was the one who did all this and made you think this village should be destroyed and the ore mine to be taken over."

He explains in deep voice showing an orb with a memory in it then Raz touches it seeing exactly what the village is saying. A dragon general grabbing his own scouts and slowly torturing them in front of the village shouts threats at them to give up their village.

Then he wakes up to find the villager got stabbed by one of his men" What is going on here!?" He growls his vision getting slowly darker and stabs his own soldier who did this" That king, his words, those deaths and that general." He thinks to himself then his eyes turn white and roars loudly a explosion of energy warps around him" HE WILL REGRET THIS!!" He yells before his body lets out a huge explosion of white energy eradicating all his men, the village, the mine entrance and the camp all together just burn into ashes.

Then the explosion dies down and only Raz stands there on a barren land with nothing left at all, his men and blood of defenseless villagers on his claws.

He just passes out on the floor and eyes blank whispering "What have I d-done?" then all goes black.

****** (end of flashback) ******

D looks at him even more shocked now" Energy explosion?" He asks confused "And villagers who had nothing to do with it!" Now he gets angry over the way Raz reacted but he can't really blame him so he focused on what that army did and the general torture" What in the name of all living creatures is this?!" He asks his new friend surprised.

"Yeah I know you're angry like I do eh? So in that day I just left the army and turned rouge." He stops and looks at the walls.

"Well then I guess that answers my question so what are you planning to do?" He asks curiously and looks at the black dragon.

"Well without another dragon that carries this marking of crescent moon and sun, it's hopeless although I can simply reach the king at this moment, yet my powers are based on only dark elements." He smiles confidently then what he said gets D amused and remembers something.

"Wait...marking of a crescent moon and sun?" He thinks then starts wondering if Blaze is the same thing as well.

"Yes mark of legend." he explains and looks at him.

****** (change of POV: Ren) ******

I look back at the body of the now sleeping wolf smiling "Hmm Chris let's go back to Hodari and hope he doesn't kill him heh."She explains with a chuckle.

"So what if he does? I still don't trust this winged freak."he growls angrily and she looks back at him.

"I know that, but I trust him so either my trust will end with us killing him or him helping us right?" She simply says with a hint of nervousness in her voice.

They then go through a gate with three guards scouting around the wooden building slowly. The males in uniform look at the two for a second before letting them in and Chris sighs in relieve getting in.

Along the way he looks at the village again almost in a way like this is going to be the last time he looks at the place. He sighs softly looking at old buildings around the village, villagers with no experience to fight off a dragon attack, guilds that are supposed to be the protection of the place each with a different sign but it seems only Chris, Ren and their leader are the ones doing such thing without their own guild which are hopeless. He looks around the endless green out of the village and smiles for a moment feeling rather nostalgic.

"We are here."Ren wakes him up from his train of thoughts and he blinks looking around then at the Inn their leader uses.

It is pretty much just like the other guilds with a mark of sword stabbing a dragon on the door.

They take a breath then open the door going right in with the new comer sleeping still on Chris's back.

They move him upstairs to the room where their leader will be waiting.

"Hodari sir?" Ren starts clearing her throat then open the door to look at the lion for a moment who is sitting there relaxing.

"Yes Ren, Chris any news?" He asks with his deep voice then looks at the male on Chris's back.

He looks at him suspiciously then nods for them to leave the room with a simple" trust me." They nod and leave then he slowly moves to him step by step.

He looks at it again blinking just to be sure he is not dreaming" A dragon shape shifted into a wolf?" He thinks to himself then Blaze starts to wake up groaning in displeasure and blurry vision.

He then looks up at the lion vision clearing up "Umm...w-where am I..."he was about to ask only to be grabbed by the lion hard and slammed to the wall.

He gasps loudly and groans in pain from the powerful paw strangling him "P-please.....I can't b-breath....."He tries to plead but the lion is already red with anger.

"What is a flying demon doing here?! How did you shape shift to this?!" He starts with a deep growl a starting to strangle him to death without any mercy.

"P-please let me explain and I'll say the full truth...."He mumbles taking quick breaths and slowly starting to pass out.

The lion nods and growls keeping him pinned to the wall, but without a death grip.

"TALK!" he shouts at him and Blaze nods softly starting to tell him exactly what happened and how Chris attacked him right away.

"Hmm and what is the prove your not one of the kings demonic dragons?" He looks at him with cold eyes a little relaxed but not letting his guard down.

Blaze nods and turns around showing the lion a strange mark of a sun and a crescent moon joined together and no soldier marking.

"That mark......you're.....you are from another world then?" he looks at him now confused not believing the legendary mark on his back.

"You can use all sorts of magic I'm guessing?" He now looks at him and lets him go then the now wolf start to form a strange orb of powerful light with a feeling of....life energy around it. Then his other paw has a dark orb with strange markings of death on it and this feeling.

"Yes sir I'm still a total rookie and still a novice in the arts of light and dark magic." He explains and the two orbs fade away to be replaced with simple light orb and dark orb.

The lion smiles and nods now understanding a part of it.

"So why did you come to this world....umm."

"Blaze, and I didn't come willingly it's more like.....I suddenly woke up on this world."
