Original Stories Fan Fiction ❯ The Lost King ❯ Prologue ( Prologue )

 

A deep roar emitted from the Hill of Magic. A dragon, armoured with thick black metal roared as a long white sword tore into his left thigh. Upon the dragon rode Queen Acacia, Ruler of the dragons. A blinding white light shone as King Aleixandre, ruler of Vännern, heaved out the legendary sword Alastair from the dragon's leg and flew up to face the Queen.

 

“Leave, Acacia! You have no business here,” he commanded.

 

“Dear brother, I have more business here today than I have anywhere else,” Acacia retorted, showing her pointed teeth. “You see, I have heard that the only son of the King will kill me in battle and take my place as the Dragon Lord. And as you know, I am not about to let the happen.”

 

The King's eyes widened as he turned around to look at a baby wrapped in the silk sheet. Acacia spied the baby and screamed with rage. Her dragon dove towards the baby at a break-neck speed. The King flew towards the baby to shield him from the Queen.

 

“I, King of Vännern call upon the magic deep within this sacred hill. Come forth and aid me in ridding this dimension of evil by sending the only one who can vanquish the wickedness into another dimension!”

 

Suddenly, the earth rumbled and started breaking apart. The baby fell through the cracks and the hill sealed itself after him. The Queen broke on the King as water breaks on rock in a stream. Drawing his sword, the King leaped backwards while cursing.

 

“Arson, engulf that pathetic excuse of a king in your fire!”

 

Aleixandre protected himself by jumping behind a rock, then crept up behind the dragon and charged at Acacia, knocking her of Arson, her dragon. The Queen landed with a thud, five feet from her sword. She quickly tried to take it again but Aleixandre landed between her and the sword.

 

“You are forthwith banished from the Land of Vännern. Leave now to Dragon Island and never return!” He yelled in a fierce voice.

 

Acacia bowed her head and got to her feet. When she looked back up again, there was an evil gleam in her eyes. She shoved Aleixandre as hard as possible, leapt over him picked up her sword and brought on it down on the fallen King's neck.

 

“You have always gotten the glory from when you were born even though we're twins!” she hissed, “Well now you will pay with your life”

 

The Ruler of Dragons brought down the sword and the noble king was no more. Her dragon roared with glee.

 

“Now that you are gone I will be left alone as a royal to rule Vännern. The land is mine to command and control. I will be the Queen of Vännern and the Ruler of The Dragons, making me the strongest being in our world!” Acacia yelled to the heavens over her brother's bloody body. “And don't worry, I know that you have arranged so that you baby, Demeteri, will one day come back to kill me. But I will wait till then gaining more power until I erase your blood line from the face of the planet!”

 

The queen healed her dragon's leg by whispering a spell. Then she mounted Arson and rode off into the night.

 

Meanwhile on Earth a baby wrapped in a silk sheet appeared on David Jonson's doorsteps.
