Chapter 13 - ~The Starting of Many Fights~

We heard a war horn...

We all exited the house and saw many human-sized flames entering the kingdom walls. Cassandra opened her backpack and took out three pills. She gave one to Chris and looked at Ezra.

"Ezra you're going to have to fight even if you don't want to. Take this nourishing pill, it'll strengthen your abilities and physical self," Cassandra said giving a pill to Ezra

Ezra stared at the pill for a while and then ate the pill. I don't quite know what it felt like, but I know the medication made his fire much more dangerous. After Ezra, Chris and Cassandra ate the pill, they started to fly into the battlefield. The others and I just watched them fly off into the distance.

"So, umm... what do we do now?" Cyrus asked

"We help them, that's what we do," Isabela said

"I don't know if should. It's not our business, to be involved," I said

"Well, we can't just sit here waiting for Ezra to come back," Isabela argued

"I agree with Isabela, we should go help," Maybell said

After some seconds of thinking it over, I finally gave in and we started to head toward the battlefield. We saw thousands of dragons and phoenixes staring each other down when we got there, and after a few seconds, the battle began...

o---(Chris pov)---o

I found myself fighting phoenix after phoenix when I felt a burning pain hit me in the back. I turned around to see a white-flamed phoenix, which is a more dangerous version of then the blue-flamed phoenix. I stood up to fight when three dragons in training attacked the white-flamed phoenix.

"No, don't fight him! Stay back!" Chris yelled

The white-flamed phoenix created a wall of white flames, then used wind magic to make the flames bigger trapping us all in. I then started to attack him with different technics, but all of the attacks didn't even touch him. Luckily none of his attacks hit me either, but my luck didn't last long. It seemed that the phoenix finally grew a brain cell and started to aim at the children. Deflecting the white flames wasn't that hard, the hard part was keeping the phoenix away from the children.

From time to time the phoenix shot a deadly attack whether it was a giant white fireball or even a white-flamed tornado. By the time I noticed I looked like a wretch and the phoenix only had a few scratches on him, I knew the battle was going to end with the phoenix victorious if I didn't use that technic, the Endless Hole of Fire. I'm one of the very few that can use the ability, it's a one-time use once I use it my soul and the other person's soul will be taken into an endless hole of flames. It's one of the few dangerous technics a dragon can use. I was hesitant at first, thinking of all the good memories I have with my sister and Ezra, but came to the conclusion that I had to save the children.

I came up with a decent plan to kill the phoenix without killing the children along with him. The plan was to create five fire golems to stall long enough for me to bring the children outside the wall of white fire, then cast the technic and end the battle in a draw. Though that's much easier said than done...
