Dragon Story

The Final Battle

Edward stared at them with blank eyes. "You gave me pain, and you will deserve what I felt." He finally rasped, glaring at Ember.

Ember rolled his eyes and said, "Give up now, Edward. Your team is as useless as some dried leaves now." 

"Never. The Dragon Troop has betrayed you. They are never coming back again. And we will end this here, right now." Edward continued. "You will regret what you said, Ember. If the Dragon Elite Team wins, the Dragon Troops are to my command. If the Dragon Troop wins, then I will let you be the leader of the Dragon Elite Team." 

Ember snorted and said, "You really want to do this?"

Edward narrowed his gray eyes. "You really want me to do it? You are alone. Look at my side!"  Edward whistled, and the entire Dragon Elite Team appeared, hissing and blowing fire.

"No. I am not alone. Look." Ember suddenly roared, and a huge group of people wearing green robes jumped down.

Luna and Moon's eyes filled with tears. "The Dragon Troop!"

Isabella caught sight of them and rushed forward. "Luna! Moon! You're safe!" The three collapsed into a huge hug. Some other Dragon Troop members also crowded around, eyes filling with sympathy. 

When they were done hugging and reuniting, Isabella turned to Edward. "I see you have grown small and frail." She narrowed her eyes. 

"Not yet, I am still stronger than you," Edward gasped. The forest behind them swished, revealing monsters. "Wait, no! What are those rancid monsters doing here?!" He stomped his foot, only to cry in pain and hop around in one foot. 

"ATTACK!" Ember yowled. The whole Dragon Troop lunged forward, humans and dragons. The Dragon Elite Team was surprised.

"ARGH!" Edward yelled as he got buried under a pile of swords and talons. The monsters bounded up, roaring angrily. 

Luna saw Sebastian nod to her and toss her a set of arrows and a bow. Luna loaded the bow. The bow felt... Somewhat familiar in her hands.

"DIE, MONSTER!" Luna cried, firing the arrow. The arrow flew through the air and stabbed into the heart of the first monster

"SNORT!" The monster fell down onto the ground, crushing some Dragon Elite Team members who were trying to save their leader.

Luna activated her new Flame-Shoes, and she flew up into the air. Lime nodded beside her, and together, they attacked. Human cries, dragon cries, and monster cries echoed throughout the valley. 

A Dragon Elite Team member rammed into Luna, knocking her breath out completely. Luna choked as she was pinned to the ground.

"You're going to hell!" The member roared at her, only to be yanked off by Isabella. 

Isabella screeched, "No one touches the heroes!" She slashed furiously at the Dragon Elite Team member.

A shadow caught Luna's eye. "Isabella, watch out!" Luna yowled.

The shadow rammed into Isabella, knocking her to the edge of the clearing. 

"NOOOO!" Luna cried, shooting the member with her arrow. The shadow flumped to the ground, dead. 

The ground was covered with dead bodies and blood, Luna had never seen anything like this anymore. But Luna didn't mind the pools of blood on the ground, she didn't mind the clashing teams; She ran soundlessly towards the twitching body of the Dragon Troop deputy.

Isabella lay on her side, blood trickling out of her mouth onto the ground. 

"I-I'm sorry..." Luna gulped. "I was t-too late..."

Isabella turned her head slowly, her gray eyes meeting Luna's brown eyes. Isabella whispered, "It's okay... This was my fate... I wanted to tell you..."

Then Isabella's eyes closed and her head lolled.

Isabella was dead.
