Garrick was instantly rushed over to a high levelled healer for extreme treatment. He had broken his ribs, arms and had burnt off his forearm during the fight.
"Wonderful Lily. You were able to suppress a rank A without using your full power. You're amazing." Lucas chuckled as he complimented Lily.
Lily looked away in embarrassment, her cheeks had a tint of red on them.
Lucas stood up from his seat and walked off. A mischievous smile was on his face as he continued walking away.
"L-Lucas wait for me!" Lily yelled after Lucas in shock as she glowered at his back.
Lucas threw a grin in Lily's directions, then, sprints off. He was so immersed in his short-lived victory that he rammed into a wall at full speed.
Bang!
Lily bursts into laughter, her eyes watered as she laughed at Lucas. She was about to back tease Lucas when she felt a arm drop on her shoulder.
Vicki used Lily's shoulder to support her elbow as she leaned on to the blue haired girl.
"You sure taught that red head a lesson he'll never forget. His head was fuming, I could literally see steam rising off it." Vicki chirped as she hooked her arm around Lily's neck.
"..." Lily was speechless. She had just beaten a mere axe user, what's so special 'bout that?!
Vicki dragged Lily away, droning on about how awesome she looked when Garrick was sent into the sky. Lily was already blushing furiously as she received heaps of praise from Vicki.
Lucas on the other hand had ran back to their room. He had received a new daily mission today.

"WTF!!!"

Kage sat in a meditative pose before a strange golden haired lady. Her green eyes were fixed on Kage as she sat on her couch.
"Your energy seemed to have gone wilder and more intoxicating than last time. Did you break through?" She asked in a curious tone.
"I didn't mother. I am now at my peak, one more battle before I do evolve." Kage said calmly. His breathing steady, eyes closed and body radiating a powerful aura.
"I heard chaos dragon is on the verge of breakthrough." The lady rose up from her seat and walked up to the window.
"Yes mother, but she is too kind hearted. Just some powerful kills and she'll evolve. I just don't understand why that hot-headed dragon hasn't gone on a killing spree yet." Kage opened his eyes. They were golden rings around his green pupils.
"The horde has crossed the waters and are heading towards Calvera at full speed. They will be on our doorstep in a matter of days." She said as she turned to Kage.
"I'll have to push our defences further to the demon horde. It will take the battle away from Calvera, and buy them more time." Kage mused as he lowered his eyes to the ground.
"Good choice, but the fight will be useless without Chaos dragon. I'll send somehow to reason with her." The lady smiled as she walked back to her seat.
"Should I go?" Kage asked pointing to himself.
"Nah, Coldfire dragon will go. I know the both of them will see eye to eye." She said. Almost instantly her expression turned serious as she roared, "Begin!"
Kage gathered his energy in his hands and threw his fire at a doll placed at the other end of the room.
BANG!
The golden ball of flames burnt the doll to a crisp. In the next split second, the doll regenerated and rose up on it's own.
"Again!"
Kage gathered a stronger ball of golden flames in his hands, feeding it his energy before throwing it to the doll.
BANG!

A tall petite girl with snow white hair and deep red eyes walked towards the castle. She was a member of the dragons, her name was Coldfire.
A finely built man walked up to greet her. He held a sword and shield in both of his his hands as he walked up to her and bowed.
"Coldfire, what brings you to the castle!" The man said without lifting his head.
"I was called for by Kage." Coldfire snorts with a dissatisfied expression on her face. She had flown all the way here only to deal with a mere guard.
"I am sorry for any inconvenience. Please go in." The guard said as he runs off.
Coldfire elegantly walked into the castle, her eyes shot across the castle walls as she approached the stairs.
"Co-Coldfire?"
Coldfire turned to look at Kage with a smirk on her lips. She sized him up, then, walked up to her friend.
"Hey Kage. Long time no see, eh?" She said as she dashed towards Kage with watery eyes.
Kage knew there was no escape so he accepted his fate. He had missed the dragon force a lot. Ever since he was a child, he had always been a dragon, a noble member of the force.
Coldfire hugged Kage tightly with tears rolling down her cheeks. Her once stern and elegant aura decapitated into thin air.
"I missed the both of you." Coldfire said as she pulled away.
"We need your help, Coldfire." A tall slender woman walked up to the petite girl with swaying hips.
"High lady of the dragon council. Coldfire dragon is at your command." Coldfire said as she bowed respectfully with a serious expression on her face.
