My Dragon System

Chapter 488: Get rid of the Dragon!
"Van!, Van!, Van!"

Constantly while out on the battlefield he could hear his name being called out. More and more were starting to die and more people were asking him to do something about it, but what else could he do?

He was firing energy from the white stone as much as he could, but with the dragon moving the way it did, he couldn't do much. He was just as frustrated as everyone else around him. Then he realised something, due to the dragon knights being around him, his movement was limited.

He could only move so much to try and get a clear shot of the dragon, and with the knights fighting the beasts, they were unable to respond or move quick enough. Trying his best to at least do something, Van climbed down from his horse and started to walk about on foot.

He continued to fire the white light, trying to predict where the dragon would be, and trying to guide it to a certain direction, then he could see it, a chance, a perfect shot on the dragon itself. He pushed through his own dragon knights, and held out the crystal in his hand in desperation. It started to light up as it was ready to fire.

At that moment, a hound beast had leapt through the air, and grabbed the white stone holding it in its mouth. When it landed in the snow, it fled as fast as it could leaving a shadowy smoke behind.

"Everyone!" Van Cried at the top of his lungs. "They've taken the stone!"

Turning around, Sir K went to look behind him, but he couldn't see the prince, instead, the prince had Broken out of the Dragon knight circle made to protect him and Bliss. They had been too busy to keep an eye on him and didn't notice when he had broken out.

"You fool, there's a reason why the dragon knights were formed in the first place!" Dan shouted.

"Jack!" Kyle shouted, hoping to get his attention as he was the fastest one out of all of them, especially in his beast form, but him and the other werewolves seemed to be deep in the beast side, causing the most damage to the posing army.

Honestly, it was only because of them that the Red Wing army wasn't completely getting overwhelmed at the moment.

Martha, who was transformed in her Harpy states as keeping an eye on it from above, but vulture lie beasts were keeping her busy, and occupied in the sky, so Kyle had no choice but to head himself.

Using his Black sash foot work, he was able to navigate through the battlefield smoother then the others, avoiding conflict wherever he saw was possible. While on his way, someone managed to slay the hound, leaving a strike with its blade but the crystal was hit and knocked upwards, only to be grabbed and held by one of the Minotaurs.

The second the Minotaur had grabbed hold of it, he too started running, it was clear that they were being controlled by orders from the shadow. They knew what power the white stone held, which just proved that Van was needed in this war greatly, but he was pretty much useless without the stone.

However, something unexpected occurred , as the Minotaur took a few steps, the Dragon had swooped down near it, and one of its stingers from the side, had implied it right through the temple, it was almost dead in an instant. When the dragon started to rise against the minotaur, it fell off the stinger and back into the snow with the stone still held in its hand.

Once again, another minotaur could see the crystal. It opened its hand and placed the crystal on top of a near flat rock where there was solid ground. Lifting up its large club in its hand it was ready to smash it into pieces.

Closing his eyes, Van felt like the hope of the Redwing army would die as the club went down. When it did, the club suddenly was split in half and fell into the snow. Soon after, its head followed falling in the snow as well.

"I think I made it." Harry said.

With all the chaos going on from the dragon, it wasn't very hard for Harry to escape from the castle and make his way here, and it looks like he had arrived just in time to save the crystal. Picking up the stone with his bare hands, it seemed to catch something's attention.

A loud roaring sound was heard, and when Harry turned around he could see the dragon was heading straight for him. A stinger from the dragon. Was ready to pierce him but it was moving too fast.

However, before the stinger could reach him, Harry saw a beast like creature had gotten in between. It was one they knew well.

"Jack!" Harry shouted, but the stinger drove right through his chest piercing him, before the dragon rose up again. As the poison entered his body, his transformation started to end, and he was returning to his human form.

He looked groggy and hurt as the poison started to take over, before he had lost all of his powers, with his arm still in its beast form, he grabbed the crystal form Harry and threw it towards the prince.

"Kill that damn dragon!" Jack shouted.

The werewolves had moved over too where Jack was, and they would protect him with everything they had. Their loyalty wasn't with the people but with Jack.

It was a tough catch for Van, but it didn't matter, for while it was in the air, Martha grabbed hold of It, and as she went by with her harpy wings and handed it over to the prince.

"You have to do this." She said.

Van clutched the white stone with a firm grip. He had a new determination to fulfil his duty. He wouldn't leave the dragon knights this time that were there to protect him and would get rid of the beast.

Then, a deep shadow was casted over them. When looking upward, they could no longer see the sky. For the dragon had honed in on them in particular.

"Protect him!" Bliss shouted as she shot out an energy blast more powerful than she had ever before, but it was useless. The attacks weren't even able to reach the Dragon's hard scales for the strange shadow surrounding its body would block the attacks.

The others joined in, but they were afraid to commit to any close physical attacks for fear that one of the stingers would touch them. They had seen what they could do. One touch of them and they were dead in an instant.

While everyone was doing what they could to slow the dragons advance, Van was doing everything he could to store an attack in the crystal, and at that moment, he felt a sharp pain go through his back. When he looked down, he could see a blade had managed to pierce all the way through him.

Sir K, suddenly appeared by his side, and struck down the Dark guild member, before seeing that the sword was already heavily in Van. If he was to pull it out now it would only get worse, until they were able to go to a hospital.

Slowly, Van's vision was starting to fade. The snow around him was dyeing in a red colour, but he could still see the dragon in front of him. It was the perfect opportunity, part of the problem with trying to fire at the dragon was that it was far away, but now it was so close, the attack had to hit.

Soon though, the glow from the white stone started too dim. He wasn't able to supply enough mana from around the air into the crystal, he could tell he was slowly dying.

"If only, I had a little bit more strength." Van said, and his wish was granted.

At that moment a strange energy started to surge through his body, not only him, but also to those all around on the battlefield.

"This, I've only felt this when Ray uses it, does this mean he's alive?" Kyle asked.

"The system is working again, we can use this to communicate!" Bliss said.

But most importantly, the bit of energy Van needed was given to him. He fired all he could into the dragons and it seemed almost confident it wouldn't get hurt, but when the light hit the dragon it told a different story.

It had pierced right through the shadow and touched upon its scales and when it did, the great beast was starting to burn. It tried to fly up in the air to get away but the damage was already done.?Soon it would fall into the snow, and later turn into nothing but dust.

The dragon was finally defeated, but there was still one more, what of Gary?
