[CoolNard]

I closed my eyes and stood in the middle of the forest which was bathed the glamour of the moonlight. My stepdragon had made contact with me telepathically(Dragons have that ability but humans don't. This is one of the reasons dragons have been having an edge over humans for awhile now).

"Swiftant...", the voice came from inside my head in the form of a deep and fiery growl.

"Your Graciousness.", i knelt down, bowed my head slightly and whispered.

"Listen.. to what i have to say.. and remember my words..."

"Yes, Your Graciousness."

"There are some people.. who do not fear the might of the dragons and are even attempting.. to go against it.. and overpower it..", said the voice. I lifted my head alittle and clenched my fists, my eyes turning crimson. So.. even the Freedom Fighters couldn't prevent the long-prophecised battle huh..?

"you may ask why they seem to have a bloodthirsty urge to take our souls, even after they have taken so many others... But the reason not very hard to comprehend if you think deep enough.."

"Erase.. evidence..", I said, raising my head higher.

"Precisely.. The previous battles that have been fought by both parties had always been started by the humans and now.. they wish to silence the dragonclan to maintain their reputation.." My body started to quiver, not from excitment, not from cold, but from hatred.I knew i should have finished off those bystanders from earlier.. but what stopped me..?

"Swiftant, do not be rash and listen to me. I understand how you feel.. However, those group of people are no ordinary humans. Like you, they have their own special abilities and powers. On your own, you're no match for all of them put together.. Wait for the reinforcements I've sent and then strike and finish what you must.."

"Consider it done, Your Graciousness.", i replied and she left.

Suddenly, i felt a searing pain in my palms. I looked down and saw that they were covered in my own blood.

**Sorry for butting in like this, but you guys r resting in the city now right? My loyalty to my stepdragon has long given way to my emotions but I believed all the crap my she said altho they're obviously lies =.=.I'm now waiting for all of you outside the city. Dun worry abt the reinforcements, they'll automatically arrive after the fight and i'll give them orders to retreat. So, whenever ure rdy ^^**
