Chapter 1 -   Part 1 : Mythical Invasion

On a planet in the near future in a galaxy far away. Was an orb quite similar to earth, the only difference was that it was slightly larger and under developed. The seas and river were molten lava and the skies were covered with obsidian smoke that constantly flowed out from the celestial body. Just then a tall creature with the body of a brown bear and the head of a dire wolf jumped from the lava sea and landed onto an ashen ground. It shook its fur dry of slag and a giant scaly rat bubbled to the surface of the magma. It grabbed the pest by its tail and dragged the carcass up a trail that was marked with bones. The creature walked up a hill and stopped at the base of a tall burnt tree that was surrounded by piles and piles of bone. It sat down and sliced down the rat's midsection splitting the carcass open and started to gorge itself on the rats insides, the smoke clouds above started to churn and twist violently, there was a clap of thunder and tiny droplets of translucent multicolor liquid fell from the sky staining  ashen shore in color. The colored liquid on the ground started to bubble and converge at one spot a few yards away from the hill. All the liquid formed into a giant chimera that had a red head, black body, and a green tail. It looked around and smirked. "Hmm, this seems like an ideal planet to rule.," said the Chimera with a feminine tone. The Chimera spotted the creature on top of the hill as it stared at her with interest. It stood up and slowly walked down the hill. The chimera stared at the creature as it slowly approached her, it then stopped and looked up at the forty foot tall monster. The Chimera looked down at the beast, "Oh! Hello down there, my name is Sia. You must be my new servant, fetch me a meal will you I have traveled many light years and I am literally famished, chop chop."  The being slowly tilted its head from side to side with a confused look after a few seconds of silence it shrugged it's massive shoulders as it turned around and walked back towards the hill. Sia became visibly peeved at the sign of. disrespect "Why you insolent little speck!" she yelled. She puffed out her chest, and unleashed a large jet of fire out her maw covering the creature in orange flame. When the flames died down the creature jumped up towards Sia's face and it snatched out her left eye. She let out a blood curdling scream as the creature landed safely on the ground with the eye on its claws, the sky opened up and a beam of light came down on the mythical beast. "Y…you bastard just you wait. I'm not the only monster you'll have to worry about. Your end is nigh."

There was an echo on her last word as she disappeared, the beast looked at the eyeball and its stomach grumbled, it took a bite out of the eyeball and a green fluid splashed onto its face. Its eyes widened in satisfaction as it devoured the enormous orb in one gulp. The creature fell to its knees and let out a powerful roar that caused the lava to move  as the ground shook. A few seconds later the creature passed out sprawled at the base of the hill. A few moments later the creature's eyes opened and it pushed itself off the ground scratching its belly. A flock of large four winged birds dived bombed out of the smoke clouds, their necks stretched out towards the lava. The fowls scooped the basalt into their giant beaks and drank it down. The creature stared at the flock and its stomach growled in hunger, it squatted low to the ground and it leaped up and with lightning fast reflexes he snatched one of the birds out of the sky which caused the others to scatter back towards the clouds. The creature landed back onto the shore and it placed its foot onto the bird's neck. The captured fowl chirped weakly and the creature moved its foot slightly, breaking the bird's neck. It grabbed the fowl by its wing and dragged it up the hill, it sat down under the tree and devoured the poultry whole. After its meal the creature laid on its back snoring loudly with a content smile on its maw. A few hours later a large portion of the smoke clouds drifted down from the sky and floated above the sea of lava. The vapor then started to twist and turn until it materialized into a large black Griffin with three yellow eyes on its eagle head. "So this is the planet Sia chose…I see the potential."  he said in a low tone, the Griffin performed a few aerial loops before it landed he folded his wings into his back. Just then a huge group of lava rats scurried quickly out of the molten sea and swarmed the Griffin, the rodents scurried over the beast biting it all over, his wings snapped open unleashing a powerful gust of wind. The griffin then took to the air knocking the pest away in every direction.

A few of the rats landed on top of the hill a few minutes later the creature sat up with blood all over its face it let out a huge audible yawn as it scratched its torso as it stood. He spotted the creature as it walked down the hill as it slurped up the rat tail that was hanging from its maw, "That must be the creature who injured Sia." The Griffin puffed out it's chest and let out a loud sound that was a mixture of a caw and a roar as it dived bombed towards the ground. The creature looked up with its head tilted to the side as the Griffin landed on the ground gracefully and stretched out his large wings making  fifty foot body even bigger. "I am Samson, cousin to Sia and I am here to get revenge…" the creature turned away and proceeded to walk back towards the hill, Samson stared at the creature with a look of disbelief. 'Sia was right, this thing is a disrespectful little cretin.' Samson got low to the ground, his back end in the air and he suddenly pounced.

He knocked the creature to the ground and started to peck it multiple times in its back. Samson jumped back from the being and licked Grey liquid from its beak. Samson smirked, "You taste delicious." The body of the creature suddenly vanished into ash. Samson was shocked by the act as the creature appeared in the air and landed on Samson's back straddling him he dug his claws into his back. Blood oozed out and Samson let out a yelp of pain he spread his wings open and like in a flash he took off into the air bucking wildly. The creature dug its claws deeper into Samson's flesh and the creature pulled up which caused Samson to ascend higher and higher. 

The two beasts ended up inside the smoke cloud Samson thrashed around to and fro in his attempts  to knock the creature off his back. The creature removed one of its claws and stabbed it through Samson's head, the claws flexed and the creature ripped off Samson's head. The creature threw its head back and let out a roar of victory as the corpse started to drop, the creature kicked off Samson's body and landed on top of the hill and the body fell into the molten lava where it melted on contact. The creature unhinged its jaw and bit into the top of Samson's skull with a quick yank it peeled the skin and muscles from the bone and with a powerful inhale it slurped the meat down its gullet. It walked over towards the downed tree and placed the skull by the roots. The organism let out a giant yawn as it rapidly started to blink its eyes, the creature finally allowed its eyes to shut fully and layed down on top of the hill snoring loudly.

PART 2: The Only King

Sia stood in a dark room staring at a blank white screen slack jawed as she tried and failed to comprehend what she just witnessed. Suddenly from out of the darkness a giant broadsword went through her neck and her body instantly turned to stone and crumbled to pieces. A large clawed hand reached out and unleashed trillion upon trillion streaks of multicolored lightning at the screen. The blast created a swirling vortex and from the darkness stepped forth a giant bipedal dragon. The dragon had black scales that were flecked with gold all over his body a black leather sheath was on his hip and two giant black leathery wings extended from his back.

The dragon tossed Sia's head up and swatted it through the vortex, he threw his head's back and let out a roar and he quickly flew through the portal. The creature laid on  its side underneath the tree staring out at the lava sea, the clouds split open and a bright beam of light shone onto the ground and Sia's stone head shattered on the ground. Just then the smoke started to twist violently. The clouds then dispersed and a giant humongous vortex opened up in the sky and a giant clawed hand of the dragon shot out of the portal. The creature looked up and saw the dragon looking down on him. The dragon flew down and towered over the creature at seventy foot tall. The dragon took a whiff of the air and scoffed, "So, you are the creature who caused the death of my kin.," said the dragon.

The creature looked at the dragon head on and tilted it's head from right to left, the dragon turned around and walked toward the shore of the ashen beach. The dragon pulled out his blade and touched the tip of the sword to the lava, the slag then transformed into stone. The dragon walked out and stood in the middle of the stone and yelled out "Oi! Let's get this over with."  The creature walked onto the giant stone slab and stood a few yards away from the winged beast, the vortex then closed revealing trillions of twinkling stars. The dragon stuck his sword into the stone and the dragon shrunk down to six feet and he got into a stance. "Now before we start the show I would like to introduce myself, name's Janson and you are?," he asked as the beast stared at him in confusion which caused him to chuckle. "That's rich Sia thought you were being rude… but you just don't understand me do you? Who cares I'm here for vengeance and that is what I'll get.," said Janson he quickly sprinted towards the creature and raised his right hand aiming to eviscerate it.

The creature jumped back and dodged Janson's wild swipe and it countered with a swipe of its own. Janson blocked the strike and unfurled his wings, he grabbed the creature by its shoulders and flew off into space. Janson stared at the creature and a Cheshire grin appeared on his face, "I can't believe that something so weak killed Samson, so laughable!" Janson let out a roar of pain because the creature ran its claws through his torso and out of his back. Janson let go of its shoulders, opened up his mouth and unleashed a point blank blast of lightning into the creature's face knocking the creature's claws from his torso and sending its body spiraling toward the planet. The creature cleaned the blood from its claws with its tongue while flames covered its entire body. Its body went through the hilt and crashed through the stone slab into the slag underneath. Janson touched his torso and winced as the wounds sealed back up he looked at the palm of his hand and smirked, 'The little shit got in a hit, well at least the impact will kill it.'  Just then a long tendril of lava wrapped tightly around his ankle and he was violently snatched back towards the planet.

A giant crater was created as Janson was slammed onto the ground. Seconds later Janson flew out of the hole his entire form covered in ash. He stretched out his wings and loudly roared in anger his visage set in rage, " Why won't you die show yourself!!!" Just then it appeared floating a few feet off the ground. The creature's head was still that of a dire wolf but its bear-like body was slimmer and covered in black scales. Its clawed hand was now long fingers. Janson pointed at the creature as his rage was replaced with shock, " H…how are you flying?" asked Janson the creature pointed a finger at Janson. He pointed to himself and the creature nodded its head and it vanished. It appeared in front of him and struck him with a flying knee under his jaw Janson's body flew back over the lava he unfurled his wings stopping himself from certain death. He stared at the creature with a sneer, his entire body started to glow as small bolts of lightning surrounded his form.

Janson's body slowly stared to enlarge from his shoulders two different colored heads one red and one silver slithered from his shoulders, the heads licked their maws with long snake like tounges. The two heads stretched out and clasped their jaws onto the creatures shoulders and unleashed a giant surge of electricity that dropped it to its knees. Janson walked toward the creature the middle head had a wicked smile on its visage, the creature then grabbed both heads by their necks and with a tug he ripped the appendages from Janson's shoulders. Janson let out a roar of pain as his blood oozed from his shoulder wounds, the creature knocked the lifeless heads from its shoulders, the nails on it's hands transformed into claws which resembled needles.

Janson got up and stared at the creature, his eyes burning with rage; he extended his wings and like a rocket he flew toward the creature. When Janson was a few inches from colliding with the creature it flipped over his body and landed on its back. The creature stabbed its needle-like claws into his back and was bucked off for its trouble, Janson turned around and saw as the creature landed safely on its feet he tried to take a step forward and realized that he couldn't move. Janson looked down and saw that his feet were encased in stone and the stone slowly creeped up his legs, Janson struggled and struggled to move which only caused the rock to creep up his body quicker. Janson looked up at the creature and asked, "What the hell are you?" the creature lifted up its arms and thousands of lava tendrils shot out of the sea and landed on the ground between the two the lava dispersed and Janson started to chuckle as the rock encased his entire body, freezing him in place with a smile on his face because burned into the ground was a simple message 'I AM KING.' Janson then crumbled to pieces and the creature let out a powerful roar of victory and dominance for all to hear.
