Where Earth stands now, there are to parallel universes. One supports the natural growth and prosperity that we experience today. The other, however, does not. This is Aeris, the land of the sky. Time itself is unbalanced here, so advanced swordsmen can use it to their advantage. There are four nations of people. The Aerians (the prosperous nation), the Iyallanos (the banished nation), the Cronians (the poorest nation), and the Lucians (the separated nation).The Iyallanos were banished, because of their dark ruler, who waged countless wars against the other nations. They and there leader were banished to the Dark Region and were to never return to the imperial city of Aegis. Because of the parallelism, Earth and Aeris are linked. No one on Earth knows about Aeris’s existence, same with Aeris, until now…
It was a bright, sunny morning in Aeris. There was a sword shop right next to the city’s main gates. This is where an eleven year old boy named Hero lived. He lived here with his mom and dad. Because they were not Aerian, they were treated as outcasts. Hero had one friend and his name was Yui. Yui was Iyallanos and an orphan at birth, but he continued to live in the city without anyone knowing. Hero was the only one who knew that Yui was Iyallanos. To protect Yui from being exiled or killed, he changed Yui’s name to Dark. The Grand Council gave Dark foster parents. His new parents loved him and deeply cared about him. Hero and Dark met when they were both five.
“Hero… Hero, wake up!”. Hero slowly opened his eyes and yawned. Then he fell out of bed and there was a large *thump*. Hero’s mom just kind of stared at him and then returned to her work. Then she went downstairs and yelled, “HERO! GET OUT OF BED!!!”. Just as he fell asleep, he heard the ear-shattering noise his mom made when she was calling him. This noise deeply startled him. He leaped out of bed so high that he hit the ceiling. After this, he walked downstairs and heard his mom yell, “Dark’s here! He wants you to help him with his homework!” Hero then ran downstairs and greeted his friend. Shortly afterward, they both left for school. To pass by the time, they dueled each other in a stick fight. They were the best kids in town when it came to swordsmanship, because Hero’s dad owned a sword shop.
After school, Hero ran home his fastest. When he got there, he noticed the lights were out in the shop. He opened the door silently and crept upstairs to his room. He peeked around the corner and was paralyzed with shock. His parents were on the floor dead and sliced up. There was blood everywhere, the whole floor was soaked. He looked beyond them and on his balcony, was a man wearing a white overcoat. The hems of his shirt were gold plated. He had aqua hair and his eyes were covered by a shadow. He carried an extremely long and heavy sword on his shoulders. He turned and looked at Hero then laughed and said, “So, you were the legendary warrior. Ha! I guess these people were innocent just as they said they were! Oh well… I think I should send you to them right now! I think they’ll be happy to see you!”. Hero turned around and grabbed his father’s sword that was on the floor. His palms were sweating and his face was white. Then, the man grabbed his huge sword and thrust it at Hero. He tried to parry, but his sword was just too small. The man’s sword sliced Hero in the stomach. Hero then dropped his sword and grabbed his stomach as blood gushed out onto the floor. The man looked at him and exclaimed, “Now your blood is mixed with your parents’ blood! How amusing… you don’t stand a chance against me! Except your fate… DIE HERO!!!”. Just as he tried to impale Hero, a blinding flash shining from the sword halted him. Suddenly, he said, “The sword chose you?! Hmmm… interesting. I must depart. Farwell legendary warrior! Our next encounter will be swifter and more devastating!”. With that, he jumped into the air and disappeared. Hero knelt down next to his parents’ hacked up bodies, then he started weeping. The floor was soaked with his parents’ blood, his blood, and his tears. Hero then stood up, clenched his right fist and said, “I will get my revenge! You will never get away with what you’ve done! You will pay severely for what you’ve done! I promise!”. To Be Continued…
The first part of the story is kinda boring, but the next parts get more interesting. Don't worry, there are dragons later in the story! PM me if you want me to write more.

Four Years Later… “Hero, what are you doing?!”. “I’m packing up, why?” said Hero. Dark stared at him, sighed, and replied, “You don’t have to leave! This is the most prosperous city in all of Aeris, so why are you leaving?!”. Hero turned his head, “I know this place has many of my fondest memories, but who can cherish those memories, if apart of you… isn’t there?”. Dark blankly stared at him and asked, “Huh?”. “My parents owned this place, I’m not old enough to own it, I need cash, and my own room was used as a slaughter house… for my parents. I trained enough at the swordsmanship school, and I need to find out who murdered my parents.” Hero explained. Suddenly, several soldiers burst through the door. They looked around and asked, “Is there anyone here named Yui?”. Hero and Dark both shook their heads. Then, one of the soldiers seized Dark and exclaimed, “Here he is! The traitor changed his name! He’s the stray Iyallanos we’ve been looking for!”. “STOP!!!” shouted Hero. “Don’t kill him! You should give him a fair tri…”. Then, one of the soldiers kicked Hero, and he flew back and hit a wall. Hero watched in horror as his friend was being carried off. He tried to get up, but his legs couldn’t move. Before the soldier closed the door on their way out, Yui screamed, “Hero!”. There was nothing he could do. Hero started crying and looked up into the skylight in his kitchen. As he watched the sun’s light beam in, he quietly said, “Why is this happening to me?!” He then gathered his sword, some food, clothes, and left his house. As he left, he saw the new owners of the shop come by and greet him. The man was a father; he was accompanied by his wife and two children. He said hi to them, and then the father paid him five-hundred ziens for the house. As soon as he did this, Hero said goodbye and left for the city’s main gate. Two soldiers were posted near the gate, were laughing. One of them turned and asked, “Hey! You! Weren’t you with that stray Iyallanos?”. Hero ignored them and walked right past them. The other soldier looked at Hero and said, “He was so stupid for staying in this town! Their kind shouldn’t be allowed to live!”. Hero turned around immediately and grabbed the handle of his sword. He clenched his hand harder, then said, “Don’t you dare make fun of him! He was exiled because of this stupid law! Not everyone is bad!”. Hero turned around and walked out of the city. He thought to himself, “What should I do now?”. Then, he walked off into the sunset lit hills.

Night hit and Hero was prepared. It took him almost an hour to set up camp, because it was his first time away from home. He sat quietly in a meadow filled with short grass. The moon reflected upon the blades of grass so the meadow was lit up. Hero gazed up at the moon. Around the moon was still the hint of the crimson red sunset that was there earlier. There was a faint wind blowing eastward. It was a very peaceful night. After four hours, it was midnight. Hero put out the campfire and took out his sword. The moon’s dull light shined on the side of the sword. For some reason, the reflection the sword put out made the pale light seem brighter. Thirty minutes later, Hero put his sword down next to him, and fell asleep. The next morning, Hero woke up and saw Yui right next to him! Hero exclaimed, “Yui! I thought you were banished to the Dark Region!”. Yui continued to stare at Hero. He noticed that Yui looked like he was being controlled. He gazed into his eyes and questioned, “Yui?”. Yui jumped up and grabbed Hero’s sword. He pointed the tip of it at Hero’s head and then yelled, “Die!”. Hero jumped up and took a step back and asked, “What are you doing?!”. Then Yui replied, “Die by the hands of your murderer!”. Yui took Hero’s sword and then thrust it through Hero’s heart. He fell on the ground dead, soaked in his blood. Then, Hero’s eyes shot open. He looked around gasping for air, and saw it was only a nightmare. He was covered in sweat, and his body was shaking violently. He looked at himself in the reflection of his sword. His skin was pale white, and he was sick to his stomach. After examining himself, he got up and fixed himself breakfast on an open campfire. When he finished, he gathered his belongings and hit the road. A new day was laid before him.

On the pathway, Hero met a fork in the road. To the left, was a beach and a vast, blue ocean. To his right, was a Cronian village. Hero chose the path to the right, hoping that there would be people who knew about his parents’ murderer. He sprinted down the path, and then entered the village. He looked around and saw it was deserted. He searched through the houses and found some strange bloodstains that spelled out the word TEMPLE. This word was found in every home in the village. When he reached the edge of town, he saw a huge sign with an arrow on it pointing westward. It was yet another bloodstain. Then, Hero peeked behind the sign and found a pit with rotting corpses in it! He gasped and thought to himself, “Are… these… the villagers?! Who could have done such a thing?!?!”. Puzzled and horrified by this, Hero walked down the path and headed west. When he finally reached the mysterious temple. He gazed upon the walls and spotted more bloodstains. Moments after inspecting the whole outside perimeter, Hero entered the temple. When he took his first step inside, he was awestruck. The whole temple was made of marble and pearl. Each pillar was decorated with rubies, sapphires, jasper, chalcedony, sardonyx, carnelian, chrysolite, beryl, topaz, chrysoprase, jacinth, amethyst, jade, diamond, emerald, and opal. In the middle of the temple was a pillar with a gold slab. Hero walked over and read it. It read: “To the three chosen wielders of the Legendary Blades… unite the swords to open the portal to the other realm linked to here. This power will bend all time, space and reality. Gather… to reunite the sacred realms. Gather.”. “And what does the legendary warrior plan to do if the portal is open?”. Standing on top of the pillar with the slab stood the man who murdered Hero’s parents! “You! You’ll pay for what you’ve done to my parents!” shouted Hero. “Saying things like that won’t make you feel better… unless you put them into action!” said the man. Then, both of them drew their swords. The man ran forward and tried to stab Hero, but Hero was too quick. He jumped onto the man’s sword, dashed forward and jumped up and slashed the man across the chest. The man quickly recovered and tried to vertically cut him. Hero blocked and clashed swords with him. Both held their positions flawlessly. They were too evenly matched! Suddenly, a man wearing black clothes and a cape appeared and joined the clash. All three held their ground solidly. Then, a white light shined from their swords. It was so bright, all three were forced to shield their eyes. The light grew larger and larger until it surrounded them. Hero, the man, and the stranger were sucked into the holy light.

Hero woke up, but his vision was blurred. After a few minutes, his sight cleared up completely. It was six o’clock morning around the harbor area in Dana Point, California. He got up off the soft sand and walked up the stairs leading to the Ocean Research Institute. As he passed by the empty building, a man with a dark blue cape and blue hair, jumped up onto the roof. His com-link rang and he picked it up. A man on the other line asked, “What is the information regarding the legendary warrior?”. The man answered back, “He’s breached. The trans-dimensional portal is open and secure.”. The other man replied, “Good work Yuin. You may proceed with the operation at post-discovery.”. Just as Hero walked by the empty building, he saw something out of the corner of his eye. He quickly turned around and looked on the roof, but there was nothing there, so he continued his long hike. Later that morning, Hero found the five highway and started walking south on it. As soon as he reached the exit Camino Estrelle, he found a spot behind a tree and camped out there. People stared at him, because he carried a sword on his back. That night, two policemen spotted and started questioning him. One of them said, “It’s illegal to carry a sword out in the public. I’m sorry, but we’re going to have to confiscate it.”. Hero quickly grabbed his belongings and ran for the shopping district beyond the highway. They tried to catch him, but he was too fast for them. He lost them down an alley behind K-Mart. He crept slowly down the alley. When he reached the end, he found a strange door with an unknown language on it. As soon as Hero put his hand on the door-knob, the cops spotted him and chased him. Hero burst through the door and closed it immediately. Suddenly, the door disappeared. Hero noticed an elevator just beyond where he entered. He looked above it and saw a gold slab, just like the one in the temple. He slowly crept down the dark hallway; a light above the elevator barely lit the path. The slab said: “Draco” on it. He pressed the button, which called the elevator up. As soon as the elevator door opened, Hero’s heart pounded hard and fast. When he took a step inside of it, his heart pounded harder and faster than before. Then he started to cough up blood. He got really dizzy and passed out in the elevator.

After a few hours, Hero regained consciousness. Still dizzy from passing out, he looked at the control panel for the elevator. He then pressed the down arrow accidentally, instead of the door open button. The elevator sped downward at an extremely fast speed. When it reached the bottom floor, Hero flew and hit the elevator’s doors, which caused them to open. Suddenly, Hero was paralyzed. He looked around and there were thousands of dragons! He was both scared and confused. Then, one of the dragons walked over toward him and asked, “Where are you from?”. Hero was speechless so he pointed at the elevator. The dragon looked somewhat confused, but then realized Hero was scared. He transformed into his human form and said, “Hi, my name is Rei, what’s yours?”. Hero looked at him for a moment and then replied, “Hero. I come from the imperial city of Aegis.”. Rei gave him a blank stare and said, “Man, you are confused! Ha-ha! Anyways, come join me for lunch. I’m sure you’ll remember everything after you eat!”. Just as he told this to Hero, Andam, one of the dragon council members, walked up to him and asked, “Where is your master?”. Hero responded, “I… don’t have one… I guess.”. Then, Andam gave Hero the same blank stare as Rei. He glanced at Hero’s sword and asked, “Are you a dragon? You don’t look like one.”. Hero looked down and shook his head. Andam was paralyzed shortly after hearing this. He transformed into his dragon form and got into his fighting stance. Then, Rei grabbed Hero’s arm and it turned into a white dragon’s arm. Hero and Andam were both very surprised. “See, there’s no need for violence… he’s one of us!” exclaimed Rei. Every dragon near by gasped and stared at Hero. Hero transformed his arm back and took off running. While running, he spotted a cavern in a waterfall. He went inside, sat down, and fell asleep.
