Chapter 23 - A Fight Between Friends

They then get somewhere out of the Celestial Cry.

"Where we? we have to be close?" asked Claire.

"We are getting close," said Siegfried. They see something flying from above, Siri in her dragon form lands in front of them and screeches at them.

"A dragon?" questioned Cronus.

"Siri," said Jecht.

"That Siri in her Dragon form?" questioned Claire.

"I see he using the ghost of Dragonia and blinded her senses," said Siegfried. Siri starts attacking them with her teeth.

"What do, we do?" asked Cronus.

"Go, I will help her," said Jecht.

"What?" questioned Claire.

"We are wasting time here. go defeat Garyx," said Jecht.

"Alright," said Siegfried. They move on ahead. Siri screeches at Jecht as he draws his sword.

"Don't worry Siri I will save you," said Jecht. Siri screeches at him and tries to claw him. Jecht blocks it with his great sword.

"what do I do here? how can I save her," said Jecht. She bites him on the right shoulder and he shouts in pain. Jecht hears The Platinum Dragon's voice echo in his mind.

"My kin she seemed to be blinded by her people's suffering." said Platinum Dragon in his mind. "stay strong Jecht you will find a way to save her just hang in there." Siri was about to take flight and Jecht jumps on her back. Siri tries to knock him off her back. Jecht holds on. Siri flies up in the air. Siri tries to get him off by smashing herself into cliffs and part of the temple falls on them.

Meanwhile, Siegfried and the others make it to the ritual site and they see Garyx.

"It's over," said Siegfried. He goes for an attack with his sword. But they get surrounded by a barrier trapped in it.

"I knew you would avoid fighting the Princess. So, I made this trap," said Garyx. "The only way to get out if Siri is defeated." He makes a magic screen to watch Jecht facing Siri and see he has badly been beaten and has bite marks.

"Jecht," said Claire.

"Don't worry he will find a way," said Siegfried.

"You have confidence in the boy he seems to not even hurt her. so, you lose," said Garyx.

"Don't underestimate that one he will surprise you," said Siegfried with a smug look.

Jecht was holding himself up with his great sword.

"I won't give up yet, Siri," said Jecht. He gets his sword up at the ready.

"It's time my kin you will be able to embrace your true power, now use it, and save the princess," said The Platinum Dragon in his mind. Siri tries to pounce on him. But a flash appears knocking her back by the light. Jecht has transformed into a giant Platinum Dragon he was bigger than Siri in her dragon form now. Siri screeches at Jecht. He roars back at Siri and she stumbles back.

"Bahamut?" asked Siri. She seems to be calming back down looking at Jecht. he breathes cold air freezing at Siri calming her down she falls over Jecht catches her.

"Rest now," said Jecht. She reverts to her human form passed out. Jecht puts her down and reverts to his human.

"Good Job, My kin," said The Platinum Dragon.

"She called me, Bahamut does that mean?" asked Jecht.

"Correct, my kin I am Bahamut, Son of Io and Final Dragon King," said The Platinum Dragon who is revealed to be Siri's Older Brother, Bahamut.

"Why did you this from me?" asked Jecht.

"It doesn't matter if you didn't know who I am the only thing that matters is that we save her and now we must save our world, Jecht please protect my sister's new future," said Bahamut.

"I will as your Descendant I will protect her," said Jecht.

"Thank you, Jecht Graham," said Bahamut. He then continues his way to the ritual site with Siri on his right shoulder.
