Drake's POV
"....Zhoobla-khan." Grayson said decisively. The baby dragon purred, as if it liked its name. I smiled. I knew why he chose that name. It was what Armen once called Grayson when he was alive. Suddenly, a noise sounded from the doors.
"Come on men! Get those doors open!" a gruff voice ordered. We all gasped in shock. The Empire caught up to us! We were trapped like rats.
"W-what do we do?!" Mia asked, shaking with fear.
Grayson and I exchanged looks. We both shared the same thought.
"We stand and fight." Grayson declared. I unsheathed my diamond sword and readied my magic. Grayson readied Andruin and Zhoobla-khan crouched in a defensive position. Mia held tightly to her rose quartz sword. The banging got louder and louder until.....
*BANG!!!!!!*
The doors were forced open from an explosive. Stone remains from the doors came tumbling down the stairs and landed at our feet. Mercenaries came down the stairs and stopped in front of us, muskets and swords raised. I counted mostly fifteen in all. One of the mercenaries stepped forward. He wore a red sash over his grey uniform, signifying him as the commander. He glared at Grayson.
"Well, it certainly a pleasure to see you again, 'Grayson the Traitor'." he spat.
"It's been a while, Luke." Grayson hissed back. This struck me as a surprise.
"Wait, you know each other?" I asked.
"We're old friends. Well, we used to be until he turned on us all by stealing that...egg..." Luke trailed off as he looked down at Grayson's feet. Zhoobla-khan the dragon was growling menacingly at him, protective of his master. Luke looked at all of us, his face bright red and eyes fueled with a boiling rage.
"TRAITORS!!! YOU WILL ALL DIE, WORTHLESS SCUM!!! KILL THEM ALL WHERE THEY STAND!! DESTROY THAT BEAST!!" Luke shouted. The mercenaries aimed their rifles....and Time seemed to slow down for me.
I felt so angry. Not just for Grayson or Mia, but for all of us. I wasn't going to let some hot shot mercenary call us scum. I did something I've only done once out of rage:
I screamed.
