The sun beamed down on the long trench dung on the shore on the edge of the western desert,the Northern troops sat raggeredly in the trench in the hot sun as the weastern defence force fired shells over them.The explosions went off sending sand everywhere,Alex sat slouched in the trench his rifle slung over his shoulder "Hey cap why are we here again?" one of the men asked "well you know the general,hes one of those crazy people that throught the west started the frist war so naturaly when he was assigned the recovery of the daughter of the duke of Claudia he jumped at the oppertunatly to take hurt to the west" the captain said as the others groned and sneeded "FLYERS!!" a voice yelled as alex put his head over the top of the trench to see thre soldires running towards them,as two dragons flew abpve them seconds later a stream of fire caught and incinerated them truning them into ash as the dragons flew over the trench as everyone ducked "Alex! get up there with Mitch and cover up those trucks before they come back" the captain shouted as Alex and Mitch jumped up out ot the trench and began to cove the trucks in water so the wouldnt burn as easy as the soldires began to fire at the dragon riders

I ran outside away from my Auntie Grace who wanted yet again to put makeup on me and turn me into a proper lady. 'Where's Nightmare, She'll never go near me with him around' I thought and whisled for him. A few moments later a giant shadow was cast over me as Nighmare flew over me and landed in front of me in a clearing. He was a big Dragon with black as cole scales and wings, Sometimes I wonder how old he is but I can never find out, all I knew was older then the rest of the dragons around here and that he was my best friend. "Nightmare' I call happaly and hug his neck before climbing on to his back. "Come on lets get out of here and back in that blue sky of ours" I say and hold on to his neck and he started to flap his wings andlift off the ground.

Alex ran and grabbed a bucket of water and hurled it over a truck as mitch did the same before the dragon riders came back around a torrent of fire came streaming across the trench and ended on the trucks Alex jumped down and covered his head as the flames ran over mitch and turned him to as quicker then he could scream as the dragons swept past and landed,The men in the trench fired not noticing the other landing behind the launchin fire into the trench,the mens nerve broke as they began to run for the ships in the bay,shooting and screams were heard as they tried to fight there way past the dragons,Alex stumbled up and unslung his rifle and shot at the dragon and started to run

I held onto Nightmare as we flew through the clouds and to wards the desert where I knew a few people. As we flew i started to hear gun fire and the roar of dragons. "Nightmare lets check it out" I say and Nightmare picked up his speed, normally he took his time flying while he was with me so I didn't suffocate of lack of oxygen but this time he just did what he was told. We neared the battle ground and went up high using the sun to our advantage to keep out of sight. 'What are the Northerners doing here? why are the dragon riders trying to harm them?' I thought.

The dragon unleashed a stream of fire and turn almost all of the company to ash the rest ran into the sea and tryied to swim to the ships,Alex ran past a dragon and shot at the rider before the dragon jumped up and blew him over landing on top of him pinning him to the ground,Alex struggled under the weight of the dragon and tryed to reach his rifle as it pressed down on him,Alex screamed in pain and recoiled his arm as he tried to look up at the creature,it wasnt fear in his eyes more like absolute terror

"Nightmare lets go" I say, Nightmare flies down in a nose dive to wards the dragon and rider that held a guy on the ground. I moved from Nightmares back to his nose and waited till we got just over them for me to knock over the rider so Nightmare could tackle the dragon. Once we got close I jumped off of Nightmare in time to land on the Dragon and hit the guy where he was wounded and pulled him off of the dragon land on the ground. Night mare went around and tackled the Dragon so the guy was free from the Dragons claws. "Why are you all fighting and why you bringing the Dragons into it?" I asked the guy holding him down while Nightmare and the other dragon circled each other.

Alex stummbled up and grabed his rifle and pointed it at them still slightly scared and worried about the situation as he glanced over his shoulder to see the ships steaming off,he dropped his gun and ran to the water and collapsed coughing from the energy he had used up as the other dragon rider came up and jumped off his dragon "They were here to destroy the duke of the lands,we dont know why but they came with enought force to occupie it to but we showed them" he said as he reckognized Hayley "your the riddles girl arnt you?" he said and looked at Alex "your parents were good flyer..sad what happened to them" he said and walked up to alex and grabbed his collar and dragged him to hayleys feet "look at his patch on his arm he was part of the northern dogs that killed them" he said and kick alex in the side not those two? he wondered but i was only15 as he lay on the ground

"What? no my parents died of a sickness, everyone knows that....." I say thinking back to when I was 7. Remembering them being sick but never seeing them after they died. They where crimated not long after that. Nighmare and the other dragon walked over but still eyeing eachother.

Alex looked up at them "If you mean the two couriers.....that wasnt me it was..my older brother" he said and began to crawl back and grab his rifle,Alex graped it and quickly pointed it at the dragon rider and fire planting a bullet between his eyes,Alex quickly got up and turned and fire at the other only just missing him as he ran off the dead dragon riders dragon following him Alex ran up a hill and hid behind a large rock and reloaded his rifle before he peered over the bolder to see the dragon,he aimed his rifle the way his brother told him and fire,the bullet hit the beat in the eys and sent it to the ground not dead but out of action for a awhile,He continued up the hill side hoping he could get far away from them as he could

I gasped at the site of the dead guy and looked away and hid myself in Nighmares neck. I head another shot rang out and hear the mans dragon in pain and look over, my eyes widening before i run over to the Dragon and look at the damage. "That....that bastard, how could he? It wasn't your fult he killed oyour rider, your friend, why did he have to hurt you?" I say and feel my heart clench in anger. "Don't worry I'll make him pay" I say and look over to where the guy was running. "Nightmare" I call and my dragon lifted off the ground and flew towards me and i grabbed onto his tail and climbed to his back.

Nightmare landed in front of the guy and I jumped off him with my fists clenched. I patted Nightmare on the side and he went over and smashed the rifle with his claws. I walked up to the guy and punched him across the face. "You couldn't of just shot the guy in the leg or something, his dragon wouldn't come after you. Now it's going to die because of you" I yell at him.

I look at the pistol and try and calm myself down and try to keep myself from getting killed. Nightmare started to growl and walk towards where we where but I put my hand up to stop him. "You can be a soldire and not kill at the same time" I tell him still holding myself so I didn't loose my temper or my life.

Alex coughed and lowered his pisotle as he did so closing his eyes out of the pain,Alex steared at the girl as he remembered where he had seen her before the oil that was on his face was now replaced with sand and dirt,he coughed as a liquid sperted through his fingers,not blood but a blackish red substance he moved his hand "easy for you to say you uptight dragon girl" he muttered even with the pistole he didnt stand much of a chance,he threw it towards her and collapsed on his knees "just hurry up and finish it" he muttered cursing that a western had gotten the better of him
