"Shadowlings are minions serving under the empire I fought against before, the Drigas Syndicate. I'm surprised they've returned after so long." Crystala explained to his liege as they watched those said foot soldiers attacking the citizens.
"Dang. That's a long time coming." Saul responded, his eyes widen. Watching everyone else suffering by their hands, it made him sick to his stomach. He didn't want want anyone to die by his powerless hands. "I gotta save them somehow."
"And that's when you know what what to do." Crystala predicted, knowing. "Use it wisely."
Not needing to respond twice, Saul dashed through the area, quickly assisting a couple of civilians to safety. When one Shadowling tried to grab an elderly man with his dog and cat, the young director's instincts kicked in and tackled the foot soldier down.
"Go now!" Saul told the civilian, watching him take his pets and flee from the destruction. He then moved away from a fallen Shadowling, dusting himself up. "This is so not over yet." He sighed, noticing more foot soldier coming right at him.

Kaz threw a hard punch to a Shadowling's face, knocking its head off of its body before more of the creatures began to lunge at him, one of the creatures tackled him, making him skid across the ground. "KAZ!" Galvanus cried out and the dragon finally emerged from Kaz's body and fired a beam of lightning from his mouth, hitting the monster, knocking it off of Kaz, allowing him to breathe after the monster tried to choke him.
"Kaz! Are you alright!?" he asked and Kaz gasped for air.
"Y-yeah! Fuck!" he cried out as he got himself up on his feet, looking at the demons lunging right at him before Galvanus shot his lightning beam at the Shadowlings, vaporizing them. "The Shadowlings are stronger than the last time we fought them. That means that Zagoth has gotten stronger as well!"
"You're right!" a male booming voice along with a laugh echoed through the air, catching everyone's attention.

Rory made his way onto the street as he watched people scatter and run away from the chaos as he unfortunately was casually walking towards it. "They have the right idea..." he mumbled to himself as he suddenly ducked down as a Shadowling swooped down trying to take his head off. He pivoted and swung the kendo smacking it right in the face. It seemed he irritated it more than anything else.
"Shadowlings... the Drigas..."
"Those freaks you keep mentioning when you were in your prime?" Rory scoffed.
"Boy! I am still in my prime! Why I was one of the most cunning of my brothers and sisters!"
"So then come out and help..." Rory said annoyed.
Silence from the Dragon of Air.
"Uh huh... thought so." He said swinging the Kendo again doing minimal damage as Rory continued making his way forward.
"I... I can't... this means... HE'S back... I'm... afraid Rory..."
This caught Rory off guard, Aeris? Scared? In all the time he got to know about the dragon it was the first time he expressed fear of anything.
"Who's back? That Zagoth guy?" Rory inquired before getting pushed back by the Shadow. He then heard the booming voice and looked up and around towards it.

Saul did his best to evacuate civilians, and avoiding the Shadowlings. But because those foot soldiers were stubborn as hell, he had to push them down to prevent them from harming others despite the lack of physical prowess. On a plus side, Crystala appeared from his body, helping him out by blasting the foot soldiers away while he took care of the rest.
"This is… getting out of hand.” Saul panted, falling to one knee, his heart beat rapidly from the adrenaline, and the skin on his neck felt horribly itchy, but other than that he’s none the worse for wear. He could probably manage speaking if he tried, but for now he need to keep going. Wiping the sweat away, Saul spat the excess saliva to the ground until he glanced at Crystala, wondering why he's suddenly quiet.
"Crystala?"
"And there he is..." Crystala whispered, staring at the source of the loud voice from the sky.
The young director looked up, already have a hunch on what his dragon was sensing. "The ringleader of the Drigas Syndicate?" He surmised, only to see his dragon nod slowly.

Tali kept doing her best to fight the Shadowlings, dodging punches and delivering her own. When the new voice boomed over them, she felt Lilia freeze up, knowing something was wrong. "Lil? What is it?"
"That's him....that's the Drigas' leader...he won't stop until everything's destroyed. We don't have a chance...
"Don't say that. There's always a chance," Tali said. "Just gotta look for it. Besides, you survived the last time."
"Because I was a coward and ran away. I couldn't face him before. Makes me want to tuck tail and run off right now..."
Down the street, Hayner flipped up and kicked a Shadowling in the head, dodging a swing before sliding to a stop, hearing the voice. "Hiju? Friend of yours?"
"No, Hayner. If you never listen to anything I say, listen to this." The Dragon sighed, shaking his head. "Run. Just run. There's nothing to be done. You should just run and hope you live your days. He will not stop until this world is naught but ash and dust. Do yourself a favor and run as far and as fast as you can."
"Yeah...not fucking happening," Hayner said, seeing three others on the street, all of them looking around for the voice. He took off, heading for the other four to see if anyone had any ideas.

The laughter echoed through the air and within seconds a flash of purple lightning flashed and within seconds, a tall demon stood before as the Shadowlings began to gather around him and bowed to him respectfully. His dark aura sent chills through the Golden Dragon's spines but Kaz cracked his knuckles. "So, you're Zagoth my scaly friend has told me about, huh?" he said, not letting his intimidating appearance affect him. "You don't scare me!" "You should be, boy! I am Lord Zagoth, leader of the Drigas Syndicate. Your time on this planet has now come to an end and it is us that will rule," Zagoth exclaimed to the team with a smirk on his face.

"Hey, you can't do that?!" Saul yelled, refusing to accept Zargoth's declaration. "You have no right to conquer here at all!"

"Screw you, bitch!" Tali snapped. "You ain't gonna conquer shit around here!"
"TALI!"
"Like hell you are. THe day you conquer this planet, it's the day I go into politics," Hayner said. "You can shove right hte fuck off back to whatever Hell you crawled out of, go back to blowing your God of choice, and screw off my planet, asshole!"
"Hayner, please...just run. This is not going to end well. Just GO!"

"Hayner, please...just run. This is not going to end well. Just GO!"
"We're not gonna let you do anything to our city, nor this planet! If you don't, then we're just gonna have to kick your ass, you motherfucker!" Kaz snarled and Zagoth grinned, pulling out his sword, pointing at the five.
"It seems you don't know what kind of power the Drigas has. We've been desiring to rule this planet since the beginning of time but thanks to those vile Golden Lizards as well as their pathetic kind, our power had been cut short and now that we are in a new era, we came here to finish what we have started! You're fools to think you can outstand us!" Zagoth thundered out.
Kaz snarled and lunged at Zagoth, "FUCK YOU!" he shouted out and threw a punch at the demon, knocking him backwards.
"Kaz, what are you doing!?" Galvanus exclaimed. "You're gonna get killed by him!"
Zagoth wiped the blood from his face and laughed, "You have some punch, boy! But it's not enough to overcome me! SHADOWLINGS!" he called out and the Shadowlings lets out incoherent screeches and lunges at the five holders of the Golden Dragons as he remained standing.
"We have to get out of here! It's not safe!"
"No, Galva! This bastard thinks he can toy with us, well we're gonna show him that we humans ain't to be fucked with! HADE NI IKUZE!" Kaz shouted out and lunges at the Shadowlings, throwing a hard kick to one Shadowlings, whipping his head and throwing a hard roundhouse kick.

Saul and Crystala shared an unreadable expression. Neither of them wouldn't budge until more Shadowlings began charging right at them.
It was then the water dragon answered first. "If I tell you to flee, would you comply?"
It took a moment until Saul turned away with a subtle smirk, his hands clenched immensely. "No."
Crystal pursed his mouth in thought, tilting his head. While he was less worried for his liege unlike the other dragons with theirs, he's rather concerned for his limitations. "Zargoth is no joke. Even with you fighting him, it's never enough to stop him." He stated. "Your life's at stake. By running away, you'll survive."
Unfortunately for the dragon, his warnings proved to have an opposite effect on Saul. The budding director rushed forward from his spot, colliding with a couple of Shadowlings as they crashed to the ground. "But not the expense of everyone else's?" Saul yelled. Rolling on the ground, he grabbed one of the foot soldiers by the arm, spinning it around until he let go, having it crashed against the other ones.
Saul panted, refusing to back down until the Drigas Syndicate leave him and everyone else alone. A part of him did have a desire to leave, except he's not a coward. "That’s the chance I'm willing to take, or else I regret it." He declared as he kept fighting.

Rory could spot others on the street as well as he swung his kendo again.
"Rory... perhaps we should retreat... I... just..."
"Shut up! I wanted to stay on the roof but noooo. You went on about honor and blah blah... then minute I turn to go that sets up a sneak attack by the enemy. Best bet is to form a quick alliance with those other people... on top of that... look." Rory pointed at Kaz
"That guy has a Dragon Spirit... and I'm willing to bet they all do. Because they're too stupid to run away... though if they don't I guess that's ever weirder... process of elimination Aeris..."
"Galvanus... y-you're right Rory... the time for cowardice is over... let's go..."
Rory swiped at the Shadowling again this time with enough force that it broke in half. He then took off towards the others
"Yo! Anybody got demon repellent?" He then watched as Kaz tried taking on the demon head on. "It's like no one watches horror movies or something..."

Tali rushed forward, slamming her fist into one of hte Shadowlings before headbutting it, knocking it away. She looked over as she heard Rory and she laughed. "Left mine at home!" she said with a grin. "Didn't think I was gonna need it today!"
"Tali, seriously?" Lilia asked with a giggle. "Hey, wait. The first man. He's got a Dragon too! And the other man that you were just talking to!"
"Wait, there's more of you!?" Tali asked, dodging a swing before dropping to hte ground and slamming both feet into a Shadowling's chest.
Hayner leapt over a trash can and kicked a Shadowling in the stomach. He swung out and grabbed another by the head and twisted, slamming it into the ground before kipping up and rushing forward. "These things are endless! Kind of wish I had something to fight back with instead of my fists."
"You'll be fine. Just--" Hijuro started, freezing as he sensed something else. "Huh."
"What?" Hayner asked, yelping as he got punched in the side of the head and knocked backward. "Ow..."
"That woman. She's with a Dragon as well. So is the man that went yelling and running in. Also the second man that just arrived. There is one other nearby as well. Interesting. Five Golden Dragons in the same space. Almost as if fated to happen. What coincidence is this, I wonder? Fascinating."
"Oh, yeah, really fascinating. Can't you conjure up a flamethrower or a sword or soemthing to help me kick ass?!"

Crystala looked up ahead to see other people fighting back with his brethren here as well. He found it hard to believe their fate intertwined for one particular reason. Impressive he must say. With a smile, the water dragon went from his spot to help his liege.
As Saul continued pushing the Shadowlings away, he inadvertently entered the scene with the other chosen ones. He kicked one Shadowling by the knee before tumbling under the other so he could kick it from behind. While he fought as best as he could, Crystala appeared above him, unleashing a powerful jet of water out of his mouth against the Shadowlings.
Saul knew Crystala was just testing him when he ran off earlier, so he did what he had to do. When he saw Rory running with a million questions, he quickly answered as best as he could.
"Nope, but my dragon is." Saul said to Rory while watching Crystala blasting the foot soldiers away. "Makeshift weapons are a way to go. Unfortunately, there's no time for this."

Kaz threw a sweep kick to another Shadowling before looking at the others and he could see the four other Dragon spirits, "So, they have other Dragon spirits, huh?" he asked and Galvanus looked at the team and nodded.
"Yes, I know them well. They've fought with me when we were fighting Zagoth years ago," Galvanus before he looked up to see Zagoth making his first attack by swinging his sword. "Whoa!" Kazz cried out as he made a dodge from the swing. Zagoth continued to make his attack on him until his blade scratched his cheek, blood started to drip.
"You have some prowess, boy. That I can compliment on that, but you and those damn Golden Dragons won't be living for long once I am done with you!" he cackled as he readied his sword.
"Not in your life! I may not know them well but I'm not gonna let anything happen to them!" Kaz growled and lunges at Zagoth, not even scared of his sword.

Hayner grabbed a busted stop sign and flung it, hitting Zagoth in the back. "Leave the dude alone, ugly! Don't you have a Halloween party to go to with that ugly fuckin' face?!" he yelled, running over and standing beside Kaz. "You good, amigo?"
Tali ran up, kicking a Shadowling back. "Earth's off limits today. Go back to fucking your mom in Hell, douchebag!"
"Seriously, Tali?"
