Oh my god I actually finished a oneshot after a thousand years

Okay quick explanation - so DJG3N6 and I love to roleplay a lot and recently we created a brainchild together, an entire AU called Just Swords and Dragons. It's basically if Corruption is turned into dragons and Fresh is their king (he's a fucking massive dragon btw if you haven't guessed). Meanwhile, the Pures stay human and they consist of my Quartet and Jun's Quartet. Yep, both our worlds are mashed together again :)

The plot is basically set two years after the start of a dragon apocalypse and the survivors (the Pures) have made a secret hideout and hunt for food every week to survive as well as killing any dragon straying too close (it also keeps them all from getting bored)

They managed to stay there for two years until, during one of their hunting sessions, Cyan and Tetra brought home a new survivor, a scared, lonely girl. And then shit starts to go down again cuz that girl is no ordinary girl

In this AU we ship Tetra and Cyan together so prepare for a lot of f l u f f in the future ;D

We're gonna reveal more about this AU soon, but for now, enjoy this oneshot!

Two years ago...

Flames licked the smoke-filled sky and it looked like the whole world was on fire. Screams echoed across the fiery streets and the hungry silhouettes were everywhere, often snatching unfortunate, exposed people regardless of their gender and age. Another explosion could be heard and the earth shook once again as the seventeen-year-old Cyan continued to sprint for his life, crashing through a part of the forest that wasn't touched by the inferno yet, running far away from the burning city.

He had never been so terrified so far in his life. It was supposed to be a lazy Sunday where he could take a break and spend a whole day with his friends at his apartment playing games and talking, but a warning came out of the blue and when they looked out his window, the sky was covered with the approaching hostile creatures...

And now he had been separated from his friends because of the chaos, and he was left alone with nothing. Not a single precious belonging as everything he owned in his apartment was supposedly already burnt to a crisp. Not even his phone, which was busted when he tripped on the street fifteen minutes earlier. He had no way to contact his friends... and most likely never see them again.

Panting, he wiped the ash from his red and sweaty face as he continued to run, desperately hoping that nothing was on his tail. But today was nobody's lucky day, and hundreds had perished in the sudden apocalypse back in the city. Who's to say that he wouldn't be next?

Eventually after what felt like ages running, Cyan skidded to a halt and slumped against a boulder, gasping for breath, legs aching and his whole body sticky with sweat. His throat was parched but he didn't have his usual water bottle — and there was no sign of any water source nearby. He felt a pang as he realized what all this could mean.

I have to stay alive on my own, he realized, horrified. Seek shelter, find food and water, flee or fight if necessary... now I wish I paid more attention to Scouts lessons.

He gave a heavy sigh and forced himself back on his feet. It would only take less than an hour for the raging fire to reach this part of the forest, so he needed to get a move on. And he had to find at least one water source around, otherwise he'd die of thirst pretty soon. Wow, this is some serious Hunger Games shit. I never expected to be thrown into the Games at this age...

Suddenly, he froze as the hairs on the back of his neck stood up like a porcupine's.

It was the primal instinct of danger, like he knew that he wasn't alone. Every inch of his senses was screaming at him to run, but he had a horrible feeling that if he tried to flee, he'd be dead within seconds. So he stayed still as a statue as the deafening silence lingered.
