Guardian Dragon

"A life WHAT?!". This was Widow yelling at Elliot. "Oh yeah! Well you saved my life, so now that necklace will stay on you until I return the favor or I'm dead! And on top of that it will signal me if you're in danger!" He said way too optimistically. "How is this good?!". Elliot laughed and said "Just consider me your guardian dragon!".

It was Wednesday again, so that meant- "LET'S DO THIS!!!!!!!!!". Jet was in charge. "Alright! We'll be doing the same thing we did last week, but this time I hand picked the fights myself." He said pulling out some cards. "First one is.... Oh! Elliot vs Aaron!". Aaron smiled while Elliot just sighed. "Okay, into the box!" Jet said as they stepped in.

"FIGHT!".

Aaron jumped at him and swung down so fast he didn't have time to move. "Too easy!" He said. He then got punched in the gut and pushed back to the other end of the box. "*Cough* Wh- what the hell?!". "Wow! That was fast! I.... REALLY over estimated you!". Elliot stepped out the cloud of dust he kicked up And his look had changed. His eyes were slits and green, and black scales went around his eyes like eye shadow.

His arm wings were out and his hands became huge, covered in black scales and armed with huge claws, like gauntlets. "When I was young I always thought that fighting another royal would be a challenge, but you're just light work!" Elliot said. He then opened his mouth and the back of his throat charge up in a green glow. Aaron started panicking and flew up.... bad mistake.

He shot the fire in a single strong beam and hit him dead on. Aaron was smoking as he fell to the ground, torched feathers, and shattered pride. He looked up as the prince of dragons reverted back to his usual look. "You're.... Very weak. Hey, Jet was it? Give me a proper challenge next time, okay?" He said stepping out of the area. Aaron stood up clutching his side, and stood next to Chloe. "You good? That was quite a flame." She asked him. "I've sorta been through worse.".

Jet stood up and said "Okay, next fight.... Chloe vs Lily!". The two girls both step in and Chloe thinks about her fight with Widow. 'Remember, she's fast and can keep you frozen.... I know a way to get around that.' she thought.

"FIGHT!".

Ice covered the ground turning it frozen. "HEY!" Chloe said creating her scythe to stay balanced. She then got an Idea. "Oh please let this work!" She said going bringing out her tail and horns. She jumps into the air and when she hits the ground focuses her power to her feet, and makes.... Skates? "I haven't done this in a while. Let's see how rusty I am!" She says using the scythe to sling herself. She started moving in a circle around Lily gaining speed over time. "The fuck?! Since when could you do this?!" She said throwing icicles.

Too busy throwing ice she didn't notice her collecting the ice bit by bit. 'First collect the ice and pick up speed!' She thought going over the plan in her head. She then jumped over Lily in an arc dropping the ice above her. 'Distract her with the ice, forcing her to defrost!'. She un-ices the area and Chloe rushes to her focusing her demonic power to her fist. 'And then strike the finishing blow!'.

Right when her fist is about to connect, she turns and Chloe sees the cyan part of her eyes turn into a bunch of hexagons and she moves out the way right before the impact. "HOW?!" She says as she watches her fly up. "That- that was way too close! Guess I have to get serious!" She says as her wings glow. She pulls out a pair of cyan goggles placing them over her eyes.

"You almost had me there. But you forgot that I had both speed and wings.". She then makes a beeline for Chloe and she barely dodges. "You miss-" She snaps around in a second and uppercuts her. She does this three more times, until Chloe catches the blow. "Finally! Now to finish this!" She says swinging her scythe. While slashing at her Lily dodges each swing, no attacks. "HOW?! It's like you can see my movements!" She says frustrated.

Lily smiles saying "That's just it: I can. You see, dragonflies are admired for the colors and speed but you forgot a few important facts. For one, when a dragonfly is hunting its prey, it has the power to over a short period of time, see its next track of movements. So your downfall is inevitable!". Chloe thinks about this and realizes that it's impossible to win against this one. "Jet.... I wish to continue.".

Everyone was stunned at that until Widow raised her hand. "Jet, can me and Chloe switch places?". Jet nodded and then she used her webs to drag out Chloe. "Widow?! What are you doing?! You've fought before you can't win!" Chloe said as she stepped in. "What can I say," She said going all out with all her arms. "I hold a grudge!". The two glared at each other and Elliot looked on worried.

Widow jumped up and shot out a bunch of webs, but not at her. When she was done she was standing on a giant web. "BITE ME!" She yelled at the dragonfly. They both went at each other. From outside Elliot said "Lily's not getting close to the web. She's planning something, but what?". He then looks at the ceiling and goes cold. Back inside Widow notices, 'Why isn't she attacking?'.

She then notices how cold it had gotten and how shaded. She looks up and see's the reason. The ceiling of the box was covered with mass amounts of ice, all over. Jet sees this and says "Lily! That's enough fighting, back down!". She then responds with "Relax, I won't kill her! I'll just hurt her really bad!". She snaps her fingers and the ice all starts coming down towards her.

Everyone hears what sounds like energy tearing and smoke fills the area. While it's clearing the box is lowered and Jet says "That, wasn't me!". Lily is thrown out with mist coming off her wings from the cold and they see a small green glow appear and then hear a shatter. The glow stops until they hear a angry ear piercing roar. Out of the smoke standing over Widow is a large black dragon with fierce green eyes.

two large arm wings with massive black claws, two legs and a long tail. It had two black horns curved to the sides like a buffalo's. It looked at Lily and readied a huge blast of emerald colored fire, but right before it shot, Widow got in between them and said "ELLIOT STOP!!!!". The dragon shut its mouth growling angrily. "I know, I know! But you need to calm down! See? I'm fine. I went in knowing I couldn't win so stop trying to torch her!".

She got close to him and said "Please....". The dragon puffed out smoke from its nose and starts shrinking down into a more human form. Elliot glared at Lily embers coming out as he said "Congrats, you get to remain alive.".
