Before we start I just want to tell you to follow @princessofasgard658. She is an amazing writer and we have a collaboration we have been working on called Stars and Fire.
Warning* Before you read, This Chapter contains tons of detail and gore. Viewer discursion is advised.
The entire cavern shakes with the force of it. We all can't stay standing and fall to the ground. The crystals crack, then shatter to reveal a large creature with claws and wings. This creature can destroy an entire town with it's breath. It kills like it's heart beats. It is a young gold dragon. These dragons are damage sponges. It takes a lot of time and energy to kill these. I stare stunned as it releases a huge wave of fire. Everyone ducks to try and survive the blast but not me. I stay on my knees as I get the full force of the fire. My body temperature skyrockets and I get white flames again. The ground starts to melt under me. I feel my strength and speed increased by the fire. The dragon that sees me get hit head on, steps back in a brief moment of fear. I use that to my advantage and rush it as it is backing up. The Salamander breaks out of it's fear and jumps in my way.
I easily dodge it's weapon and get behind it. It looks around confused until it turns around and sees me. Pure white fear crosses across its face as I plunge my hand into it's gut. I grab hold of it's spine and pull as hard as I can. Red blood and fire sprays everywhere as I pull it's spine out. It's organs get shredded by the force. When I am done I push the body away. I am now just holding the spine and the skull. I cast it aside and wipe its blood off my face. I look over at my party and they have the same expression the salamander had. The dragon takes my brief pause to launch more flames at me but it just does not learn. I stare at it, unfazed and it looks terrified.
It tries to bite me and I let it. I let it swallow me. In the gut I find what I am looking for, the fire sack of the dragon. This organ allows it to create the fire that is so dangerous to an average being. I reach in and pull out some stones. After not using the ability for a prolonged period of time, the stones are created of pure fire. Unaware of what I am doing, I eat it's stones. It tastes horrible. I want to throw up every time I eat one but I eat them all. All five of them. The reason I ate them was because there is a legend that if you eat it and you use a lot of fire attacks, your fire will greatly increase its intensity. I feel a surge of power as my fire seems to disappear, all is gone except a ripple of the air. I can tell it is an increase of power because I see the organs start to boil. I climb back up to the mouth and see that the dragon was about to eat Taylia. Fuck no! I think as I pry it's mouth open. Everyone has shocked expressions about what I am doing. I jump out, narrowly escaping the jaws. I grab the edges of the jaws, and snap them to the side. I then climb up on the dragons back, and pry. I dig my hands into the dragon's flesh right on the nape of its neck. I feel for the gap between the bone and pry. I use all of my strength to separate the two. Blood sprays everywhere and I see veins and nerves explode under the pressure. I keep pulling and pulling until I hear a final RIIIP. I feel the dragon slump down to the ground, dead.
I hold my prize of my work, the dragon's head, cleaved from its body. I rip it's teeth out and stuff it into one of my bags of holding. I turn to my party and they look on in horror. That horror soon turns into amazement. I control my emotions as my body temperature cools down. My flames die down and now I cannot hurt my friends.

"That was awesome!" Waluigi and Darkmin say in unison. They are a lot alike, even think alike.
"I was supposed to do that." Big D says.
Everyone else just congratulated me and Taylia just looks at me with renewed passion. We turn to the dragon's lair.
"You choose what you want out of its treasure first." says Sara.
Everyone agrees with her. I stroll in and take a look at what it has. It mainly has gold in there. I don't need gold but my eye falls on four items in the center. I see four ovalish shapes, with scales on the outside. I recognize what they are instantly and I claim all four of them. I take the dragon eggs and place them in my other bag of holding. I learned that I should always have a bag of holding for hatching eggs. My bag of holding will be an incubator until the eggs hatch.
Everyone takes some gold and splits it evenly. I take some of it for spending, and the rest goes in my incubator.
"What did you take?" Taylia asks. Everyone starts to pay close attention. It seems everyone is curious.
"It is a surprise, you will find out soon." I say in response. They all look upset that I will not tell them what I took. I remember that they do not know some of the same languages as me. I learned every language when I studied for ten thousand years. I can speak in Draconic, the language of the dragon, and they would not know what I am saying. I use some of my fire to heat up the eggs a little bit when no-one is looking.
We begin our journey back and set up camp when we are about halfway back. I am the lookout again while everyone goes to sleep. I look around to make sure they are all asleep and when I see nothing wrong I decide it is a good time to check on the eggs. I take out my bag of holding and look inside. A small jet of flame comes out and all four baby dragons crawl out. They start to make noises as I look at each one. They immediately see me as a parent figure and crawl up to my neck to cuddle.
"Woh, you got those?" A voice says from behind me.
I turn slowly so as to not disturb the hatchlings, and see Taylia.
"I was not going to say anything until they hatched."
"Well I guess they did."
She sits down next to me and strokes one's head.
"Two males and two females." I say to her.
She looks happy to see the hatchlings. Just then, we are ambushed by a pack of wolves. I call out but it is too late. One killed Waluigi in his sleep. Fenris grows bigger and eats three whoe. We manage to fend off the others.
When the danger is away, we stand around Waluigi. Darkmin leans over his body and whispers something I barely make out.
"We ask the lord to shine his light, and lead a soul out of darkness. We beg the lord to share his fire, and light a candle that has gone out. From darkness to light. From ashes to fire. From death to light." Waluigi's wounds heal and he gasps for breath. We stare in amazement.
