The search for the Keeper of Time(Part one: The search begins)

At the crack of dawn the grand city of Tigerian was up in flames as a giant dragon flew above, setting the city a blaze with blue fire. The guards ran around the city to make sure that every citizen was safely below ground in their bunkers, and not outside in this death trap of an inferno the guards were helpless in stopping such a monstrous dragons, since their plasma cannons had been destroyed by the last attack a few days ago by another large dragon, and they had not yet been repaired. The cities temperature begins rising to 700 degrees Fahrenheit, and even in the air conditioned underground bunkers began to rise well over 200 degrees Fahrenheit. The tremendous heat quickly killed of the week. The dragon left as soon as it had set the entire city a blaze. Even now it was two late for the inhabitants to escape for the blazing inferno had also engulfed the only exits from the bunker. Now only a miracle could save them, unfortunately luck was not on their side as bunkers ignited into flaming killing everybody inside of them. The blazing inferno burned all night, making the night sky around for miles as bright as day. An hour before daybreak the raging inferno finally died down as the last of the burnable material was burnt. As the twin suns came up, the full extent of the fire was revealed, not even ashes remained of the once Grand city of Tigerian, and the ground was burnt black from the tremendous inferno. The only things that had stopped the fire from expanding were the mighty Tigerian River on one side, and the Grand Phoenix desert on the other side.

As the twin suns rose up into the sky a small group of three travelers approached the city. As the travelers came into view of the city one of them broke into a run toward the city. Her two companions yelled to her to stop, and when she didn’t they begin chasing her. She jumped into the river as they begin to catch up. One of her companions jumped into the river and pulled her out even thought she struggled against him.

“Why did you stop me, Alex” she asked

Her companion that had just pulled her out of the water was to busy catching his breath to answers, as steam came off of him.

“That’s destruction was caused by blue dragon fire, do you forgot what we taught you, Rose” replied her other companion as he gave he a towel and placed one over Alex

“Blue Dragon Fire” Thought Rose

Destruction from blue dragon fire is not safe to touch even after the fire is gone. It will set anyone who touched with in 10 years of the incident on flames. The only two that will not get heart by this dangerous zone are Dragons, and Slayers. Luckily for most people, a few dragons can blow blue fire, and when they can they can only blow it once every twenty years.

“Sorry, I forgot that, when I saw my home was destroyed” said Rose

Rose is of the Tigerian race, and is now the last sole survivor of the warrior race. She looks pretty much human except for the fact she has a tiger tail, ears, and under he clothing stripes cover her from her stomach, to right below her neck. Rose stands at 7ft tall, has a slender body, long braided black hair, and bright blue eyes. The only reason she had left the city a few years ago was to train along side Alex’s so she could be a better fighter. Rose is always acts before she thinks.

Alex is of the slayer race, which is a race that had branched off from the dragoons, many centuries ago. Unlike the dragoons flame wings, a slayer poses angel like wings. Slayers are very hard to get ride off since they are reborn like phoenix when they are killed. The only way to kill them is by drowning them. Alex stands at 6ft tall (Very short for a slayer, average height is 10ft), well built, has short spiky silver hair, and emerald green eyes. Alex will not step down from a fight, even if the odds are against him. During his training with Rose he made an unlike friend with a Dragoon name Leon, who now travels along with them.

Leon is a Dragoon who is an expert in using fire moves, and a master at the sword. Unlike most Dragoons he actually gets along with Slayers (Dragoons Mortal enemies). Leon stands at 8ft feet tall, has a well built body, fiery red hair, and sapphire blue eyes. Leon is easy angered, all it takes is a simple thing to make he blow his fuse. He joined Alex, and rose so he could travel the planet of Dragonis to study the many unique inhabitants of the planet.

“So their no way to rebuild the city then is there” asked Rose as tears fell from her eyes.

“No, there is a way, we will have to find the Time Keeper, and have he reverse the effect of time to the city” replied Alex who had full recovered from being in the water

The timekeeper is a mythical being that is believed to exist in the hidden valley of time some were fair south of the Grand Phoenix desert. It is also believed to be guarded by a tremendous dragoon know as the Lunar glider, that is invincible to everything except the scepter of time hidden somewhere in the Valley of Dead Time.

“Come on lets get going” said Leon eager to go

The group headed of after having a little breakfast, and headed north for the scepter of time. As they were out of sight of the city a shadow came to life.

“Some fools are after the scepter, I most tell my master” the creature said as it sunk back into the shadows.
