A strange sphere like orb drifted towards the drake’s portal and passed through without a sound, it then flashed blue and locked on to the closest life form and made it known,
a faint blue meteor could be seen from the drakes’ home planet and was gathering suspicion.
It launched into the atmosphere and rushed to a halt inches away from a Drake life form.
The orb had stopped in the center of the drake capitol in front of a royal guard. The drake watched as the orb floated before it, other drakes that had been going about their day in the busy city had stopped to watch as the event unfolded, whispers filled the crowd at the sight. Some wondered if the orb might have been a fae, or some new spell being attempted, but they had not seen such an orb act so strangely before and it interested them.
A loud hiss could be heard as the orb unfolded and radiated the area with a luminous blue light, it unfolded to reveal a scroll with an unknown seal and was addressed to the leader, the scroll floated on top of the orb waiting to be taken and its contents to be read.
The guard examined the scroll with his helmet's eyeless gaze as he reached out and took it in his claws. The bright blue light shone even more brightly on the drake’s armor. With the message in hand he then made his way through the crowds of onlookers as he headed to the royal palace where the high king resided to deliver the message.
The scroll started vibrating as it drew closer, it appeared as it wants to burst open, and a blue light shone within. The guard drew his grip closer and quickened his pace to see what was inside.
with no trouble from the others the guard had reached the high king's court, the massive chamber was almost isolated except for the high king who sat calmly on his throne watching a holographic screen floating before him, his tail gently swaying across the ground. With a wave of his claws the screen disappeared and he acknowledged the guard." what brings you in such a hurry, guard? is there something wrong?" the king asked calmly with a friendly tone. "My lord, a message for you from another realm!" the guard said holding the scroll in the air for the king to see. The larger drake looked down at the guard; a smile appeared on his face. "Well, this should be interesting" he said with a motion of his hand, the message floated from the guard's claws and unraveled itself at the king's eye level.
The scroll read,
“There a Secrets in This Galaxy Which Are Hidden, If You Want The Truth We Can Show You The Way
All You Need Do Is Touch Our Symbol,”
The symbol emanated with a blue aura and said 'Sicarii'
King Helios calmly reached out and placed a claw on the symbol, careful not to tear the scroll.
As he touched the scroll, five men in clad white and red armor materialized in the throne room.
'Do not be alarmed, we come in peace' the five men kneeled and raised their heads
'king Helios it is a true honor; I am Thray of the Sicarii.”
The five men stood up
"it appears my introduction is unnecessary." the king joked "welcome to the drake world, Thray of the sicarii." Helios said proudly, his voice sounding an echo in the great chamber.
'You’re a man... erm a guy of great humor. You and I will hit it off for sure, but I come on business, we wish to share resources and Intel. In short long life friends, but even longer than that. We are at your service.'
Thray retracted his helmet to reveal his face. He held out his hand to the king.
King Helios stood from his home and kneeled down; he then reached out with his clawed hand and firmly but carefully grasped Thray's outstretched hand. Helios' hand significantly larger than Thray's, completely enclosed the visitor's. “Then you are more than welcome here, Thray. The drakes shall gladly participate and call your people friend." the king said with a friendly smile that showed off his sharp canine like teeth.
'Looks like you could use a big toothbrush' Thray said with a smirk on his face.
'I understand you use magic' Thray smiled and rubbed his fingers in his hands revealing the blue flame that Thray joyfully played with.
'Is there anything the Sicarii could do for you?' Thray said while still playing with the flames.
Helios stood and chuckled as he held out his hand to the sky. A spiraling column of flame shot out of his palm, took the shape of a dragon, and began circling everyone with brilliant display of sparks from its wings with every flap until returning to Helios' hand and burning out. "Humor is a missed trait amongst my visitors. They’re always so stern or fearful. I do believe this will be an interesting turn of events. Helios looked down at Thray, "as you might be aware, my people are not usually very social amongst the outside world. We’re not what we once were and I wish to fix that." Helios kneeled down once more and looked Thray in the eye, " I require little more than to allow my people to interact outside of this pocket dimension, this artificial world we call home, and share our culture and our gifts. I just need the means to achieve this goal."
'And I believe that we can give you the tools to do so' Thray said with a smile, He was used to beings being bigger than him after all he was a Sicarii and one of their duties was to hunt down demons, demons that even dwarf king helios.
'What do you need? We are experts on dimensional.... er.... stuff, It's really quite hard to explain.... Anyway we wish to help in any way possible.'
"We do not need help with dimensional manipulation; such matters are commonplace for us. However, we need land that won’t have dangers on the other side of our portals, land we can call our own." Helios said with a friendly smile.
"We're fast builders, and quick to adapt, so issues of that nature are unnecessary. All we need is land and allies."
“Well you’re in luck, we can provide both' Thray holds his hand out and a miniature orb materializes before him and gestures it towards the king
'Here is a pocket dimensional rift opener, this will bring you to a planet you can call your own'
"One we shall proudly call home. Thank you, Thray" Helios said as he accepted the orb.
'All you need do is just say 'Draconis', If you'll let us we would be honored to escort you to your new home?' Thray said
“Very well, let us examine the drake's new land" Helios said as he turned to the guard. "Guard, inform the other's I'll be away. I should return shortly"
"As you say, King Helios" the guard said as he placed his hand over his soul shard as a salute, quickly leaving the massive chamber soon after.
"Ok, Draconis"
King Helios appeared in some kind of desert biome with lagoons and trees, it looked like paradise,
Thray then phased into reality and gave the king a smile
'Welcome to your home' Thay smiled but then instantly locked his gaze into the air
Helios smiled, "Ah, this planet is perfect. It’s an ideal Location for a drake settlement." He looked down at Thray. "What's wrong, Thray?"
'I see something that shouldn’t belong!'
Wolf flicked his wrist and it shown with blue aura and a blade appeared
'You ready?'
"Oh?" Helios said calmly as he cracked his knuckles. "Then let the fun begin." a toothy smile crossed his face and a concentrated ball of intense heat formed in his claws.
'Hope you can catch up' Thray winked as his helmet locked into place and he sprinted towards the distance at inhuman speed
"Of course I can" Helios' large wings sprouted from his back and straightened out with two more spheres of heat at their centers. He then leapt into the air, curled his wings around the spheres, and propelled himself at unnatural speeds in a jet like propulsion into the distance.
The closer the two got the clearer they could see, It was a mass of tentacles with sharp teeth at every point
'What a mess!' Thray said with a chuckle
“I think it looks cute!" Helios joked as he came to a sudden stop next to Thray.
'Quick grab my hand' Thray said as he widened his stance just as the creature saw the two potential meals
“There is no need for that, Thray. There are worse creatures in the drake world that make this thing look like a baby Chihuahua" a smile crossed Helios' face, the orb of heat in his left hand intensified and the orb in his right began arcing electricity, randomly striking the ground with power. "in fact, allow me to handle this..."
'To be perfectly honest, this is my kill, no kill steals' Thray said as he lunged into the air and landed a kick into the beast, it stumbled back in shock
"nice shot, Thray, but now it's my turn" Helios clapped his claws together, colliding the two spheres of energy and causing a powerful beam of energy to fire from his hands and clear through the creature in the blink of an eye, continuing for seemingly miles behind it.
The Creature reemerged and much bigger and stronger that before
'Show off! Now it's my turn'
Thray jumped over the beast and the beast collapsed to the floor revealing several slices sliding out from one another.
'Thray 1, Helios 0' Thray said with a smile
the earth shook and several more beasts emerged from the ground and roared.
Helios pointed at some of the creatures releasing darts of fire from his fingers that incinerated the beasts on contact. "Helios-7, Thray-1" Helios said with a laugh.
10 more beast appeared and Thray darted around them and cut them in half and disposing of the remains by tossing star grenades in the slime and incinerating them.
'Thray 11, Helios 7' Thray said with a smile,
'Something big is coming'
“Very impressive, Thray! But I call the next one!" Helios smiled
A massive earthquake shook and a monstrous tentacle rose from the ground making Thray have to dodge out of way and away from the fight.
"That’s a big one!" Helios took flight and flew high above the beast and turning to his side aiming one claw at the creature and another towards the sun, his body began to glow and shine like gold. "Thray! Keep clear! It’s time I show you why my name is 'Helios'"
'I am far more durable than you might think' Thray jumped and passed his energy into Helios and dived down into the beast fist first
'Do it!'
with a roar, Helios released the energy from his claw creating a blinding flash of golden light and sending a devastating ray of light and fire forcefully down into the ground, engulfing the monster with a bone shattering 'BOOM' when the area calmed and any residual light faded away, all that was left was a massive smoking, but completely smooth and reflective, crater where the beast once was.
A hand emerged from the crater and pulled itself up to reveal Thray smoking from the heat.
'That still only counts as one!' Thray said smirking
"That one easily counted as 7 of them" Helios landed next to Thray, his feet clicking against the smoothed out ground. "Maybe more" he said with a smile.
'Let's hope so, I could do with the exercise' Thray said as he held out his fist for a bro fist
Helios placed his fist against Thray's. "Good game, Thray. if you thought that was fun, you should try hunting back in the drake world. The beasts there are literally mythical in nature"
'As ours back home, we can make cities here or anything else if you wish?'
“This is a fine planet, Thray. Perfect for colonization, it would be a waste and a shame to not do so."
'Then this planet is yours' Thray said wth a smile.
