Chapter 19: TIMES PAST
"Come on son you need to attack me with fluidity and, and not only strength" says a middle age man as a small prepubecent boy with green hair and pale blue eyes clashes with his wooden sword
The battle draws on, the small boy is the first to fall of exhaustion
Gasping for air he says
"How do you expect me to get through your defence, it's too complex" says the boy as he sighs in fustration
"Anger does not being victory, we the people of the aqua tribe do not falter under pressure" the man says as the boy gets up griping his sword
"That is it ,now counter !" The man shouts as he rushes at the boy
The boy inhales deeply as he quickly swerves around the attack before striking his father in the side
"Agh" His father grunts as he grips his side
"I'm sorry father, are you okay" says the boy with concern for his father
"Oh no need for worry, I am fine" the father says as he gets up before brushing himself off
"You did well son, you will be a great swordsman in the future" the father says
"I will !" says the boy in suprise
"Yes and always remember me and your mother when you leave to tribe one day" says the boy's father smiling
"I definitely will !" the boy says as he smiles
"Come you two, dinner's ready" shouts the boy's mother from a window
"On my way" they both say as they walk inside, they feast as night falls
A little while later in the night he is alerted by the sound of glass shattering, promptly rushing over to his bedroom window
"How did this happen" the boy thinks as outside a bright orange light illuminates the dark forest followed by a deafening roar, the sound echoes through the boys head
The door to his bedroom is forced open as his mother rushes to grab him, the village in flames accompanied by large red wyvern
"Hurry bring as far as you can, and follow the other women and elderly !" shouts the boys father as he grips his sword
"But" the boys says as she is cut off
"No, I have a duty as a father an husband, and I will not betray it" the father says solomely
The mother grasps her son in tears as she runs into the wood followed by many women, children and elders
"Harry, I think we've met our match eh" says the boys father
"We just need to hold it off, I was getting uninterested in village life either way, dont you think Christopher" the man says as he grips his staff
"Hmm" the boy's father grunts in approval
"Advance !" the man shouts as a large group of men rush at the beast, during the valiant charge Christopher's blade is shattered in the midst of combat
"So this is death" Christopher whispers under his breath as the dragon scorches all the men and women who where engaged in combat
"Father !" The boy screams as he sees a pillar of fire erupting into the air, his mother and many others reach a large carriage set in the case of an escape, the mages onboard pull it along
Far away from the village the people within the carriage set up camp in a nearby cave, the people present are brought to tears and shock
"I, Issac Kingman will slay as many draconic beast as I humanly can" Issac thinks as the grips his shirt in anger
"You where like a flash of thunder" Issac says now in the present
"It's a trademark" aurora says as she lifts Benjamin off the floor
"I heard about your past, so I decided to leave you with all your limbs, it would be a shame if you couldn't avenge your father" aurora says as she walks off
"I believe I should be thankful" Issac says with a smile as he falls unconscious due the large amount of blood loss from the massive cut in his chest
"I guess I was wrong to pick you" aurora says as she lays Benjamin down on a rock far away from the girl and Issac
"Whatever" Benjamin says annoyed
"Oh dont get fussy, you where quite cute, groveling on the ground in pain and all" aurora says as she smiles
"Ugh you weirdo" Benjamin says as a smile forms, before he falls unconscious
