Blood of the Chosen

The island heat was probably finally getting to him after all these years. I had missed this, the fear in their eyes, the surprise, the hope that drains from their face the moment they realize that they are no match for me.

"D…do you think you will be able to freeze all these dragons too?" He was not asking to make me back down, the tremor in his voice made me realize that he was asking because he was scared. The dragons were his last life line, if even they could not stop me then he knew his death would be imminent.

"Oh." I scoffed. "Those little things."

I had been scared of them just moments ago but now, I felt a tinge bit annoyed that one of them had the audacity to try and kill me. I was going to fine that one dragon, single it out and torture it to eternal sleep, regardless of whether it was following orders or not.
