"Dragon Flash technique!", Thrandos yells, starting the battle. His large golden body begins to shine brightly. The light bursting out of his body is so vibrant that it puts the forest in a temporary daytime mood. I close my eyes to avoid getting blinded. Thrandos grabs the opportunity to launch 5 golden fireballs at me.

"You'll have to do better than that, Thrandos!", i shout. "I'm already accustomed to all your techniques!." Thrandos raises his head slowly and smiles. In order to dodge his golden fireballs, i'd to leap as high as my legs could possibly take me. Every place that the golden fireballs attacked had already turned into golden lifeless statues, with all the life sucked out of them.

"Now I know you're really ready!", he remarks, his golden light fading away.

"My turn!", i cry. Using my multi image speed technique, I shoot arrows at him using my bow, clutching 5 arrows at each interval while doing sideflips. Normally, they'd have been able to deal severe damage to anyone/anything else. But my arrows don't even come close to piercing his thick golden armor.

"It's useless!", he exclaims, "I expected more from you, Swiftant! And i still do!"

"Of course! Now let's just cut the usual warm-up and start the real tournament!", i said, putting away my original weapons and taking out Zeus and Raijin.

"Nothing less from the DragonSin, ahahaha!", Thrandos laughs mockingly.

"Speak for yourself, Golden General.", i thought.

"Nova Strike!", instead of fireballs, a steady current of golden energy comes rushing in my direction this time. I tumble to my right but even my speed isn't ample. My left shoulder pad gets caught in the golden force whilst I slide away. Instantly, it converts to the color of gold and becomes 3 times heavier than ever. I tear it away from my plating and toss it onto the ground to prevent getting slowed down.

"Damn it, when did u learn to do that?", i curse aloud.

"What do you think i was doing? Sitting round and praying that you'd come back? You think i'm dumb, don't you?", he sneers.

"Nova Strike!", he uses the attack again, changing the forest in a golden arena. An idea suddenly strikes me. Swapping to my tornado mode, i blatantly clash with his attack. For a few seconds, time seems to freeze. Both of us are giving it all we've got, our attacks are pushing one another to and fro. I can hear the static caused by the friction of our opposing techniques.

"Don't you know you're simply elongating your own death?", Thrandos started.. And then, *BOOM!!!* The force accumulating inbetween our elemental struggle had exploded due to over-inflating.

Thinking: Just as i planned.

Using the impact of the blast, i hurl my body all the way ontop of Thrandos. Even though i could and i can, I did not want to just jump onto him, it'd have seemed too obvious. Before he knew what happened, I plant my katars into his skull.

"Kiminari edge!", a bolt of lightning from the sky strikes Thrandos directly on the head(I'm immune to electricity).

He groans in pain. However, Thrandos doesn't lose altitude. Going against the power of nature, the air turbulence increases as he shoots up to the sky, into the ozone layer.

"Heheheh... Too bad for you us dragons also have the ability to breathe in vacuum. Now let's see how the DragonSin survives when he's being deprived of oxygen!"

Thinking: Man.. how much storage capacity for abilities does a dragon have to spare..?

*DragonBusters Illustrated Picture Book:

Thrandos:"Aaahhh.. let's take a break.. Fighting, fighting, fighting all day long. It's a wonder why the queen never gets tired of it."

Swiftant:"Yup.. maybe we should ursurp the throne and replace her with somone more gentle huh?"

Shakura:" Ahchoo..! Ahchoo! ACHOO!!! (sniff, sniff) Must be someone speculating about my beauty =D"

Thrandos: "How DARE you.. Hey wait.. is that a lunch bag you're carrying there? How about sparing me some of those cheese sandwiches? They are my favourite! ^_^"

Swiftant: -.-" *
