Guinella Dearest and the Dragon Hunters

Prologue

No-one's POV
  
   Long long ago, in an age that mankind has long since forgotten of its existance. Two worlds, the world of reality and the world of magic coexisted, their creatures living together in harmony on one planet, this planet's name is Earth. These two worlds had a natural cycle, humans, who are the center of the world of reality were able to think up ideas of creatures and places more magnificent than they could ever dream of seeing. These ideas would be caught by the life force of their planet, and throughout a process that is simply unexplainable, the ideas would come true.

   Magnificent beings with incredible abilities began to arrive. They arrived slowly at first, coming into existence when the end seemed nigh for one whose time was not yet upon them. Their purpose, to protect the golden hearted and to lead a happy life, just as any living thing should want to. As years passed and these beings became more and more common, their magnificence gave inspiration back to the humans. If you were to visit the ocean, you would be greeted by the sight of a stunningly beautiful human like creature with the scaly tail of a fish instead of a pair of legs. A trip though the forest could bring you upon a pack of people with wolfish features and unusually sharp canines. A glance to the heavens could present you with a breif glimpse of a winged human, blessed with enormous wings as white as the clouds it flew near.

   Creatures like these could be found all over the world, many having human friends or lovers. It was a time of prosperity for both worlds...but alas, all good things must come to an end. Years and years passed, and the humans started to grow resentful to the creatures of magic, jealous of their abilities. Tensions grew between the two worlds, the peace became unsteady, until one fateful day when the course of history was forever changed.

   A human trapper caught, tortured, and murdered a young werewolf pup, taking its fur from its body with cold blood in the hopes that he would gain the powers of the creature. Other humans saw what he had done and thought to try it for themselves, the population of magic creatures dwindled to just a few hundred around the globe. For the creatures all hope seemed lost, and it was, that is, until the dragons ararrivedBringing with them seven warriors who were the embodiment of all things good themselves, the nine of them quickly ascended to power.

   The creatures had desperately clung to the hope that something would save them and the Earth let their come true. Two incredible winged reptiles, two dragons, a brother and sister pair by the names of Ellanoro and Ellanora were their hopes come true. The silver scaled male who was the ruler of night and the golden scaled female who was the ruler of day quickly captured any human whose heart had turned.

   Handing them over to their servants, the 'Faithful hunters of the dragons' or the 'Dragon Hunters' who would purify those who could be saved. They gave them Hope, Love, Light, Trust, Health, Dreams, and Courage. The seven healed all that they could, and for a time it seemed as if the worlds could be stabilized once more.

   They probably would have and life could have gone on like before, but Ellanoro was outraged and disgusted at the amount of humans they had captured. He wanted to bring the fallen creatures justice, he wanted to bring death. Desperately, he tried to convince his sister to help punish the humans as a whole, to eliminate all that he saw unworthy.
  
   Ellanora refused, beliving that it was not their right to judge who lived and who died, that their purpose was only to help those in need. Ellanoro, outraged at his sister's statement turned to their warriors, heartbroken when they stood by his sister and her views. He flew from them as fast as he could, leaving in a blur of sliver he fled to the one place he knew his sister and the Dragon Hunters had no power, the night.

   He traveled with the rotation of the Earth for many years, always staying where it was night. Eventually, the darkness corrupted his mind, he fully belived that his sister and the Dragon Hunters were wrong and that he had a right to kill. With twisted intentions he studied the Earth and its power, trying to conceive a plan to harness its energy.

   Finally, he succeeded and created the first of a new race, the Drakanimons. These hybrids of dragon and human were stronger, faster, and smarter than any army could ever be, but that wasn't what made them such a foe. Each and every one of the seven created was handmade by Ellanoro to combat one of the Dragon Hunters. Each and every one of them was the defenition of what made a monster. Despair, Hate, Shadows, Betrayl, Disease, Nightmares, and Fear.

??? POV

   Hope ran through that forsaken forest, panting as he sped up trying to escape the being that was trailing him. He ran, and ran, and ran, and ran, his slender legs were a blur of soft yellow fabric. For a fleeting moment it seemed as though he would escape, that is until his foot got caught on a branch. He tumbled to the forest floor as a deafening snap filled the forest and blood pooled around his now broken leg. He tried and failed multiple times to stand, despair filled his heart of gold as he realised that these next few minutes would be his last. Tears flowed from his light blue eyes as he opened his mouth, singing with his dieing breaths, one last desperate attempt to ensure a future for the lives of his planet, the lyrics carried by a voice that was not his own.

"When ages hath passed from this point henceforth.

And between the two worlds there is only one door.

When all good is gone and darkness rules.

A child in bloom the Earth shall choose.

The one they choose, a child of light and dark.

The only, the hero, the child of stars."
