The Two Dragons

There are two Dragons, one sides with the humans while the other wants to destroy all humans. The Dragon who wants to save the humans is named: Azure, while the Dragon who only wishes for destruction is named: Druk, even though they are Dragons their opinions couldn’t differ any more, but one thing stays the same, their stubbornness to keep their ideals. Both Dragons are at a battlefield where many varieties of weapons are, there are many human skeletons and there are many Dragon bones. One day during one of the Dragon’s battle, they had the intuitive feeling this would be their final battle, but they had no reason for believing it. They can’t tell whose side will win, or even if there will be a victor.

Then Druk spoke to Azure “Azure, for the final time, why do you always insist on defending those weak insects”.

Azure replied with much pride and hope “they are human, that is why, as you say that are weak against us, they are all born weak, but just the same we are also born weak. It’s our duty as fellow weaklings, and besides I can’t just let them die without even fighting for their lives”.

He had said just with pride and arrogance “you idiot Azure, sure we were born weak as of every creature compared to their adult form, but humans are by far the weakest”.

Azure replied with sadness “you just don’t understand Druk, I fear you never will”.

Then Druk took flight into the air, Azure followed that action and took flight also. They fly at each other with their sharp claws slashing at each other, they are dealing equal damage on each other and they fly away to rest.

Druk had screamed confused “I don’t understand you at all! Siding with humans while you’re a Dragon yourself! And one of the strongest Dragons at that”!

Azure replied calmly and gracefully “Druk to me, it doesn’t matter if you’re born a Dragon, elf or even a human. Because it doesn’t mean you will be any different then who you are now”.

Druk replied with “Azure, you’re too kind for your own good, the humans will just betray you if you win this battle”.

To with Azure screamed “No they won’t! I trust them with my life”!

Then Druk used his Dragon breath and fire was coming out, he’s aiming for Azure. Azure did the same using her Dragon breath except she aimed hers for the fire breath, but her Dragon breath is lightning, the two Dragon breaths cancel each other out.

Then the two Dragons fly above the clouds, slashing with all their claws and even hitting each other with their tails. They are going all out regenerating from their injuries and using their Dragon breath. No one can tell where their final battle will lead to, but most hope that Azure will win to protect the humans.

Druk said to her “once I defeat you Azure; I will kill all those humans you love so much”.

Azure replied “I won’t let you! I cannot let you do that”!

Then Azure scratched him with her claw just above his left eye, blood got into his eye from wound, he had to close his eye, but he went hurdling down to the ground. He landed on the ground in much pain, and Azure followed safely to end the battle swiftly and painless.

He angrily said to Azure “you will pay for that Azure”!

She replied “you were the one who threatened me”.

Then Druk breathed fire at Azure burning her right arm, and it’s too painful for her to move it now. At the moment they are almost equal Druk can’t see out of left eye and Azure can’t use her right arm.

Druk proclaimed “I win Azure, you’re useless without that arm”.

Then she replied “let’s see then”.

Then Azure scratched Druk without using her right arm, scratching his left arm and use her lightning roar on his left arm too.

Druk screamed in pain unexpected “Gah”!

She replied “that’s so unexpected coming from you, well it’s unexpected that you would attack humans too so long ago, you used to care for them, but now you hate them to the core”.

He replied back “times change Azure, but time never changes back”.

She had said “true time never changes back, but advances forward”.

Then he roars fire at Azure to which she dodges barely, since she can’t use her dominant arm, she has slowed down quite a bit.

Druk had said “you have slowed down quite a bit, victory is mine”!

Azure had said to him “Druk I know what happened, that you were betrayed by many humans, after you saved them, but it doesn’t mean all humans are like them. I trust them”!

Druk replied screaming with sadness “I can’t just trust them again”!

Azure could feel her words getting through to him.

Azure said “Druk, you may believe all those humans betrayed you, but they didn’t betray you. Those humans died and the humans now are their ancestors “.

Druk asked shocked “Is that really true”?

She replied “yes”.

Then Druk roared fire at Azure one last time and Azure tries to counter with her lightning roar.

Druk answered “Don’t lie to me”!

To which she answers “I have never lied to you and I never will”!

Azure got hit purposely by Druk’s fire roar, making the lightning roar weaker.

Druk sheds a tear and says “why Azure? Why did you take the hit”?

She replied simply “because you regained your trust in humans, you no longer need me”.

He screamed “I still need you Azure! Please don’t leave me”!

Azure sheds tears of sadness and happiness and says “Druk, please protect humankind, promise me! I will never leave your heart”.

Druk replied with screams and tears “I can’t promise you! If I do you will disappear”!

She said to him softly “It was my destiny to disappear Druk, and I am just glad you learned to trust again”.

He screamed “you knew, all this time, it would happen like this! Didn’t you”?!

She replied “yes I did Druk, but I am content. I saved everyone that’s all that matters to me”.

He said his last words to her “Azure, fine I promise, but you better come back one day, I’m sorry good bye”.

Her last words were “Thank You Druk”.

Then strange blue lights engulfed Azure’s body, the body she could no longer move from the exhaustion of the long battle, all her wounds healed in an instant, and not through normal means. The strange blue lights got brighter and engulfed Azure’s body again. Azure’s body started disappearing bit by bit, little by little until her whole body disappeared, but in her place was a human baby with bright blue eyes and hair.

Druk had said shocked and sad “Azure, you came back”.

Even though Azure looks totally different now, Druk knew it was her from the first look. Druk was determined to protect humankind especially the human reincarnation of Azure, he was going to look after her until he could no longer do that.
