"For what reason have you come to my island," The dragon abruptly spoke in a deep and wise voice. Its tail behind it swayed through the air, brushing against the temple's pillars to the sides. Its eyes were created with purple flames.
"Our reason in coming here is to help a friend, we need to increase his willpower and we were told that coming here would be our best bet," Chloe stepped forward to explain.
The dragon began to think before turning to Simon. "And for what reason have you come, there's no need to lie, I can see your emotions and it seems you slightly disagree with that young lass."
"Indeed, although our purpose in coming here is to indeed find a method to increase our friend's willpower. My reason for coming to this temple is to challenge you to a fight, although I certainly wasn't expecting a dragon," Simon explained.
The dragon let out a burst of haughty laughter that shook the ground. "You think you have the strength to fight against me. I suppose I shouldn't expect anything better from a race of war and violence."
"And I shouldn't have thought anything less of a race of flying lizards," Simon insulted back. It sent the dragon into a fury of rage, deathly mist spread from its body, engulfing the group in its grasp.
"Calling us noble dragons lizards is nothing short of blasphemy; I'll accept that challenge and send you to the grave!" The purple glow moved through the mist swiftly as the dragon moved closer, its steps shaking the ground.
"And I win I'll be forcing you to work for us," Simon said joyfully as his planned work. From what he's read about mythology during his Percy Jackson period, dragons are noble creatures that deserve respect. That could also be interpreted as arrogant creatures that demand respect.
"And If I win I'll be using your corpses to wash my temple daily and pick up my shit!" The dragon shouted back, its tail swinging around towards Simon, the rest of the group had already retreated back to where they believed it would be a safe place.
Simon lightly hopped over the dragon's tail, Wildfire shot into the air, morphing into a beam of light it headed towards the dragon whose eyes widened in surprise. The dragon swiftly opened its mouth and a purple gas shot out.
Everything that purple gas touched was eaten and corroded, the few dead trees surrounding the temple had been destroyed because of it. Wildfire dodged it ever so slightly while continuing its attack, ramming into the dragon's head before attempting to grab its neck.
The dragon wasn't shaken or anything, it calmly proceeded to smash its head towards Wildfire, its mouth wide open as it aimed for the wings. Wildfire was momentarily stunned by what the dragon was doing before morphing into light before retreating.
'This damn dragon is insane. If I attack it with something that could threaten its life it counterattacks in a suicidal way, making it so I'll die with it, forcing me to retreat if I want to keep my life' Wildfire complained.
'Suppose that's a noble dragon for you, it'll make sure to bring its enemy down with it' Simon frowned, he couldn't help but be slightly frustrated by the dragon's personality and fighting style. 'I guess there's only one other thing I can do now. The three of you join the fight'
Simon had left the three out of the fight due to his confidence in Wildfire, he just never predicted that the dragon would be so determined to win it'll sacrifice its life for it. He didn't want to lose his new tame so it would be best to use his full strength. He also decided to join the fight.
"Oh, so now we're finally getting serious," The dragon said as a malicious smile flashed across its face. The black liquid puddles around them began to bubble, black gas rose from them as a claw stretched out.
Pulling itself out of the black puddle, the skeleton of a wolf appeared. The black liquid draining off its bones, returning back to the puddle before another claw came out, bringing out another wolf. This happened dozens of times, for each puddle, all bringing out different beasts.
Simon was quickly surrounded on all sides, these skeletons seem stronger than the ones they were fighting before. They were also fighting a lot more careless, without hesitation, just heading straight for Simon growling and howling.
"Tsk, damn nuisances," Simon complained as he smashed the through the head of a skeleton. He then gripped onto the bones and swung it around, using it as a weapon as he spread his lightning control all throughout it.
The lightning crackled as it passed through each beast it hit, collapsing their bodies instantly as they were charred. Simon let go of the skeleton he was holding and moved on to a much more suitable bone, that of a tail that reached a length of 2 metres.
Lightning crackled as it passed through the bone segments, lighting them up. Simon smiled as he began using it like a whip, hitting the most vulnerable parts of the skeletons, the spine and neck. Each attack causing another one to collapse.
The four birds were taking care of the dragon, each attacking from different angles attempting to disable a limb at the very least.
Wildfire was attacking it with light beams, burning more holes through the dragon's wings. Tempest shot lightning towards it, while Dusty and Hurrican were attacking it with blades of wind. Forcing it back.
"Roar! I've had enough of this! I'll send you all to hell!" The dragon shouted as a dark aura engulfed the battlefield, suppressing Simon and his birds, stopping them in their tracks as they felt them lose control over their bodies.
The suppressive aura got stronger and stronger, even the group outside of the battlefield felt weak in the knees. They felt as though they should be kneeling in front of the dragon due to the sheer amount of pressure that was exerted onto them.
"We have to get Simon out of there now!" Joe shouted as Sandy shot a ball of fire towards the dragon. The ball of fire burned through the purple mist, smashing against the dragon that was so focused on Simon.
The dragon turned towards the group, the purple flames in its eyes intensified as the pressure on the group increased tenfold. They felt their knees give way, collapsing on the ground. "I'm the ruler of this island! You dare interrupt my business with a sneak attack, the business you started yourselves! I'll kill you all myself, one, by one!"
The dragon was furious at Joe's sneak attack, it felt insulted and disrespected. It decided to stop holding back and show these humans what fear is, what real strength is.
...
Near the edges of the island, Lachlan and Phoebe were continuing their search, checking every nook and cranny for anything. But aside from rocks and trees, there was nothing else here. Now, even the beasts stopped coming as well.
Fortunately, the stones were slightly unique.
--------------------------------------------------------
Name: Stones of Death
Description: Holds the aura of death inside, increasing the holder's death related abilities. However, should the use not have any death related abilities, the stone of death will severely weaken their vitality.
Location: Can be found in areas that reek of death.
--------------------------------------------------------
The trees were similar, possessing an aura of death. Due to them soaking in the island ruler's shroud of death they adapted to survive in it.
The two also assumed that the sudden disappearance of beasts was due to Simon starting his fight against the ruler of the island. It was understandable, for it to command all its soldiers back.
However, the two suddenly felt a pressure weight them down slightly. They looked towards each with their eyes widened from shock. Lachlan knew this type of pressure, although it's slightly weaker then Aaron it's still enough to suppress their fighting abilities.
"Shit, I knew I shouldn't have let them do this," Lachlan said as he summoned Aaron and hopped on. He predicted this would happen, he should have stopped it or at least got them to wait until he finished searching for what he needs.
Phoebe hopped onto Aaron right after Lachlan. "Do you think this the workings of the ruler of the island?"
"I don't think, I know. If it isn't then we'll be in a whole lot more trouble when the actual ruler decides to show itself," Lachlan explained before getting Aaron to shoot into the sky. They went full speed towards the centre of the island, they could already see a large concentration of purple mist, the deathly shroud.
The dragon stood up on two legs, extended its wings and roared towards the two of them. Lachlan and Phoebe were both shocked at the sight of the dragon, its deathly appearance giving them goosebumps.

"So a few more flies decide to show up, laughable," The dragon said. "Although I still say, I certainly didn't expect to see a griffon, especially a rare variant. Do tell, did you come through a gate as well?"
