Me And My Flames (on hold)

Chapter Fifteen: Vatra

Dear Diary,
I remember the battle so well, as it haunts my dreams even to this day. I destroyed them with my flames, my wonderful flames, and they burned. So much death, so much pain. Is there even a single drop of innocence left in me? How could there, I have killed more in mere seconds, then some people ever meet in their whole life. I am a killer. A murderer. My heart is filled only with pain, death, and bittersweet cynicism. And at the point in the battle where I hath begun my counter attack, I knew that there was no going back. Never was I to feel the naive innocence I had once been swallowed in, I had thought. But was I wrong?

I landed roughly on the ground breathing heavily. What little snow that my flames hadn't melted was stained red. Ha. White snow, stained with Crimson blood. Purity tainted, until all there is, is red. Red every where. No innocence, no shields, no walls. No protection. The true cruelty of the world, reveled to a girl of seven. The blood of the ones she loved smeared on her face. I quickly shook my head to clear the dark memory from my mind. I quickly focused in on the battle as I amassed walls of flames, and made lines of mens' lives disappear in seconds. A single tear slid down my cheek and I quickly turned to burn a poison tipped arrow that was coming at me. My wet hair clung to me, drenched in blood and sweat, as my heart beat so fast it hurt and I breathed heavily. The wind picked up and blew the ashes of men onto my face, and it stuck to the blood. Hand shaking I rubbed my face and looked at it very slowly. I slowly looked upwards at the sky and whispered a mere four words, " My Dragon, help me. " Just then, the wind whipped around me and I looked up in awe as the most magnificent creature in existence descended into the field before me. "My Dragon. " I whispered. I ran up to the magnificent creature and embraced the giant dragon the best I could. I climbed up it's side, using its scales as footholds, and climbed into a sitting position. I immediately felt at peace as my heart calmed and my breathing slowed. I was no longer alone. I never had been. My dragon had been with me the entire time, through the pain, through the tears and the pain, my dragon was here, in my heart. My Dragon breathed a great burst of flames upon the army and the soldiers recovered from their shock. No longer were they fighting a powerful girl that could be overwhelmed, they were now fighting the most powerful warrior in existence and her even more powerful fire dragon. " I'm ready." I said to- does she/ he have a name? I heard a booming female voice in my mind.I am Vatra. "Vatra. " I breathed. I am Scarlet. I thought back to her. I know. I smiled as me and Vatra fought the Armies Of Zlo. Together.
