All I can remember is my town in flames the whole kingdom was a match in the middle of a dark room. People screamed at the sight of a dragon I was left alone my parents had left their child behind. It has been 13 years since then and I have been living on my own, I live in the kingdoms village I know everyone and they all know me, life is hard but I don't have to worry about food because I live right next to the butcher. But the thing is he has his food locked in a back room with him always standing guard. When the store is closed he's looking for me all day yelling my Name because I keep stealing his food
"Luca oh Luca where are you," he would call
Creepy right?, once and awhile I throw stuff at him just to make him mad. He was once standing in front of a guard and I threw a piece of wood at him and he started to swear at the guard for "hitting him"
The guard replied with only one sentence "What the hell is wrong with you.."
The guard got so mad at the butcher that they broke out into a fistfight. The butcher lost 4 to 1 The butcher is just amazing short angry and dumb. Just last week I went to go and BUY a steak he saw me and instantly yelled at me.
"Get over here you little bastard."
I almost lost my head literally he threw his knife at me. It was inches from my neck, yeah inches he cut off a chunk of my hair off. I decided to run stealing the steak on the way out.
But the next day the king came looking for me.
THE BUTCHER AND THE KING
"My king that little brat has been stealing from me every day now please do something about him."
"I will send him out to kill vulcan the dragon lord he will never return from that."
"Thank you my king."
The next day I could hear someone at my door
"Luca come to the door come here now."
THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP
I open the door to see the king, I was in shock
"I'm here my king what is it that you want."
"Luca I the king have selected you to slay Vulcan the dragon lord."
I stood and thought for a moment, I realized I have nothing to do with my life so if I die it will not be a loss
"My king.............I accept."
"Good my boy you will be given a Sword made by the finest and most skilled blacksmith and with my shield that I have brought into battle many times."
"Thank you, my lord, I will set off on my journey as soon as possible,"
I did not think to why he wanted me to do this but I just did it
"I will see you on my boy."
"See you then my lord."
One of the kings men handed me sword and shield I stared at the sword and shield wondering what battles they have been through the sword shiny and made off black steel, infused with flames of hell if oil touches it catches fire, the shield made of wood only found in the king's garden. the wood was soaked in an elixir that makes it fireproof and strong but does not affect the woods light weight. I hope dearly that they will protect me in battle.
That night was extremely cold I lay wondering if I will ever live to see my home again.
When I woke up I decided to take the route on the roofs so would not be noticed by anyone, I jumped across the roofs of the buildings looking over the village one possible last time.
I climbed down the ladder to meet the king at the gates
