Chapter 69: Killing

[Heyyy! I know I haven't updted in a long time, so, to satisfy your needs, here ya go. :) ]

     The two massive groups of dragons lunged at each other, teeth bared and claws extended. Flint stood to the side, not wanting to get involved in the battle just yet. Queen Anarchy, however, had other plans. At this sight of battle, blood being spilt on the floor, her eyes gleamed with vengeance.

     She quickly pounced into the battle, breaking free from Flint's grasp.

    "Your Majesty!" he protested, but she had already disappeared in the mass of fighting dragons. He sighed, shaking his head before turning to the chained dragons. He began picking the locks, one by one. Admiral Kenobi and Pink-Lemonade immediately jumped into the battle, whilst the other eight stood the the side.

     As the lock on Princess Sunny's chains clicked, unlocked, Flint backed away from the wall. He peered over his shoulder at the ongoing battle. Realizing he had nothing better to do, he also joined.

    "Ack-!" the Firescales hissed as he felt someone stomp on his tail. The RainWing flashed white and fell to the floor in pain, his foot scorched black. Oops..

     He swiveled his head around to face one of the SkyWings in Arson's army (it was only made of SkyWings). Flint's eyes widened and he felt the color drain from him. The glossy, vermillion/magenta-scaled dragon smirked. Empyrean.

     Flint knew how dangerous this dragon could be, and he didn't underestimate her. He knew her tricks. She lunged at him, making that hiss/spit sound that SkyWings make when they were about to breath fire.

     Flint dodged out of the way, ramming into her as soon as she hit he ground.

    "No! You're mine! MI-" He slashed her throat. Empyrean's eyes widened, and she coughed up blood. Her gaze softened, eyes waxy as her body went limp. Her blood pooled on the floor, drenching Flint's talons even more.

     He turned away without a second thought, wasting no time to go battle other dragons. He was faced with a new foe, this time he just snapped her neck and moved on.

     What they say really is true, Flint thought, carelessly slitting another enemy SkyWing's throat. Once you kill your first enemy the rest go down easily.

     The battle continued for several minutes, Flint in the midst of it, killing any enemy he saw. These were the dragons that kidnapped his friends, that aided in his and RedRunner's torment, he told himself. They were evil.

     He stood, panting and covered in other dragons' blood, above a bleeding,  supposedly dead, and barely recognizable Prince HellWing when head heard familiar voices.

     Flint glanced up to see RedRunner pinning their father to the ground. Both of their eyes were fires of hate for one another. Flint smirked, padding over to the pair.

    "..YOU, AND I AM GOING TO DESTROY YOU FOR YOUR HEINOUS ACTIONS!" RedRunner was roaring in Arson's face. The blood red SkyWing looked insane, blood coating his scales and eyes bloodshot.

    "Might I help?" Flint asked. RedRunner flocked his tail in agreement without looking away from their father.

     Flint grabbed Arson's horns and repeatedly bashed his head on the ground. He screamed in pain, barely heard over all of the other dragons' screams. RedRunner grasped the bloody SkyWing's head. Flint backed up a bit.

    "This is what happens when you piss off your sons enough," he growled, jerking his talons to the side, fatally snapping Arson's neck.
