In a huge colosseum stood a large guillotine and seated in the chairs behind a 20-foot wall, were people that came to watch the event today. "Bjorn, you remember the plan right?" asked Graham. "Yes, now shut it, Kutsiva's here" chastised Bjorn. "Listen here you little-" Trumpets start blaring as Kutsiva jumps down from his seat and does the famous superhero landing. As if on cue, the knights chanted "ALL HAIL THE EMPEROR" for a dozen times. Kutsiva walked over to the guillotine and stood next to it. "My people all around the empire, bear witness to the punishment received if you betray your Emperor!" Boomed Kutsiva in an amplified voice.
Two knights walked over, dragging a broken Aórn across the red sand towards the guillotine. As he was about to be pulled up onto the guillotine to the waiting Kutsiva, a bright light flashed through the vicinity blinding everyone.
As the light disappeared Bjorn, in his wyvern form, carried a shocked Aórn and a serious Graham on his back. "STRIKE THEM DOWN, AIM FOR THE WINGS" shouted Kutsiva as he ordered his knights. Spears flew, arrows soared, spectators ran, and Kutsiva fumed. Weapons bounced off of a seemingly transparent barrier around the wyvern as it roared and flew off into the distance. Just as Kutsiva was going to chase after them, Gregory ran over "Sir don't, you know what'll happen if you shift. You'll destroy the whole colosseum and kill everyone" warned the panting, disheveled Gregory. Kutsiva glared at Gregory then grabbed an unfortunate knight and threw him at the three disappearing figures. The knight screamed then smacked into the barrier and slid down slowly like a raindrop.
(AN: Oh by the way, in case y'all didn't know, "AN" is always "author's note". also, the main story starts after this! Man, kinda sad to even call this a chapter lol)
