Clash Of The Dragons

CHAPTER 3

Whistles were blown and suddenly the ice dragons flew high into the air from the depths of the oceans with their wings tightly held to their bodies... This would be war! They formed a circle in the air, rotating vigorously with the centre dragon staying still. They then crisscrossed each other as each dragon headed to its master.

They landed carefully, their riders hopping to their backs. The girl hopped to the one which was in the middle and they all rose to mid air, racing towards the fire dragons as they fired ice balls from their mouths . Andy was left alone, now dumb, sweat dripping from his face and his body shaking to the roots of his existence. What was all this... A dream? he wondered, watching the ice and fire balls meeting and exploding in mid air.

The riders, most on the ground counterattacked each other. Blows, swords, kicks, arrows and elbows reigning the air. At the middle of the fighting field, high above the air were the two leader dragons and their masters fighting tirelessly.

"What brought you here? " the girl asked the man when the two swords met and stuck in the air. "Can't you remember? " the man asked as he pulled his sword and aimed for the girl's neck. She missed, kicking the man's feet before aiming for his neck too, but the man had already gotten control of himself and had too aimed for the girl's neck for a second time.

The two looked over at the swords on their neck... It was a win win for that case. "Not bad, " the man said. "But this is just the beginning... I'll be back for you. " he said as he jumped onto his dragon's back. "Roll back. " he ordered his team as he flew in the direction they had come from, leaving the girl standing on the dragon's head.

"And I'll be waiting. " she mattered and watched the dragons disappear in the orange afternoon sun. She nodded her head... "I'll be waiting. "

From prison to prison, Andy could not really get what what was happening to him. He was now in another one. Even though they were only two in the cell, Andy considered this one to be the worst. From since he had been put in here the guy he was with had not stopped talking, singing and moving up and down.

"So how does the future look like?is the world bigger? What do they do to thieves like us there? Tie us onto a rock and toss us into the ocean like they do here? Are there drugs to prevent one from dying? You see am afraid to... " the man continuously said.

That is when it hit him. "What did you say thieves are done here? " Andy asked in shock. "Well, you see... They are first chased by the crowd... Then taken to the guard... Put in prison.. " the man tried to explain.

"I have not asked for the procedure ... Am asking for the judgement." Andy interrupted. The man was silent. He sat down and looked at the ground. That was what he had been fearing all this time he looked down as if to measure the magnitude of it"... Tied on a stone and tossed to the deep seas. " he whispered. That was enough for a silent night .

The sound of boots heading to their room was what woke them up. They had hardly slept the whole night thinking of what was ahead of them. The cage was opened. Outside were four huge and muscular guards.

"Out i say! " barked the hugest of them all, a wicked smile extending to the end of his lips. Without saying a word, the two walked towards the door. Two guards took hold of them, dragging them out of the cave. Outside was the crowd shouting to the
