Torture, experimentations, and death. All a part of the lord's plans. So what if an experiment fails, you can try it again. Dispose of the failure...doesn't matter if it is a life...is that how it should be?

"Its quiet....too quiet. It doesn't make sense, a place like this should be loaded with security. But all I find is destruction...Makes it easier I guess...but I should be on my toes. To run into what caused this may be bad for me, but taking risks is what I do. That's my job of course."
Things in the facility were not as they should be. A lab run by N.D. should have top quality security, as well as people scouting about to make sure no one uninvited should trespass. What did catch his eye was the way the front gate was torn down in half, as if it was pushed open with brute force. There were also bodies at the entrance, dead bodies lying in a pool of blood.
Wearing a mask to cover his face besides his eyes, and a sword with no sheath equipped on his back, he walked over to check out the cause of death of one of the bodies. Being careful to avoid getting any blood on his black sneaking sneaking suit, he kneeled down to inspect the body, "Whoa!...death by decapitation...aw man. This doesn't look good at all. Someone hardcore must really wanted to get in, but for what? What could be so important as to rush in and kill. To make it worse they were N.D.'s workers. All of them human no doubt."
Regardless he had to press on, running right into the facility head first. The large hallways and lack of doors would've made sneaking around tough, so he was pretty lucky to have no one around during his entrance. He stopped suddenly when he saw a map of the place hung on a wall near an elevator. He reached into his pocket and pulled out what seemed to be a brown colored P.I.C., pressing a few buttons and pointing it at the map, "Scanning...ok map copied into database. Now, the place where all the research is taken place is...laboratory number nine."
Knowing now where to go, he called the elevator to his location, since the only way to that laboratory was going down the elevator of course. After a few seconds, the elevator opened its doors, only to have yet another body fall out without a head. He quickly moved out of the way, sighing and pushing it out of the elevator with his foot.
Before even walking in, something made him turn around and assume a defensive stance. Shadows on the floor were moving around, until rising from the floor and taking shape. "Jadow...I don't have time for this", said the agent to himself, taking hold of his sword and preparing himself as 10 Jadow surrounded him.Something like this was no problem for him, being trained to deal with Jadow. One jumped at him, but was quickly cut in half horizontally and disappearing. Two decided to jump at the same time, from each side but again their efforts were in vain, to be sliced vertically and killed with no sweat.
Not taking any more chances, the remaining seven all jumped at him together. The agent was unable to cut them down at once and was dog piled. He let out a growl, growing tired of this foolishness, "GET OFF OF ME! I DON'T HAVE TIME FOR YOU!", he shouted, expelling what seemed to be pure heat energy from his body and reducing the Jadows to nothing.
Having lost a few precious minutes, he proceeded to the elevator door with a sigh while putting his sword back behind him. The floor was covered in blood, but he just casually walked in and pressed the button. Taking a bit longer than he thought, he finally arrived at the hallway. A pitch black hallway with the lights destroyed, along with smoke all over the place showed that the same attacker had been here. Lifting a hand, he suddenly made a flame ignite in his palm and kept it constant for a light source.
It was enough to light his way, the smoke not bothering him too much as he made his way through. Venturing deep enough, he started to see a faint light, a greenish light. With his objective close at hand, he clenched his fist to make the fire go out and ran at the exit straight ahead.
However the door nearly 15 feet tall and shut tight. This door was also malfunctioning, so pushing it open wasn't enough. Without any other choice, he unsheathed the sword yet again and swung his sword three times at the door.
*Swish!*, a loud breeze came from the swings, then a small opening was made at the bottom of the door on the left side. The entrance was finally open, but even this lone agent was shocked to see what was inside. The laboratory was a large room, complete with an especially large dragon lay suspended in a tank of green liquid, probably a life support kind of liquid he thought.
He walked closer and had a look on the control panel in front of the tank. His fingers typed quickly on the computer, trying as quickly as he could for information on the experiment. The words, "Hybridization process" were engraved on the tank's metallic base. The computer then started to reveal the nature of the experiment, "...The key to the Zoan gene...Forced interspecies breeding? What is the Zoan gene...ugh! Too much techno babble for me to understand. All I understand from here is that they are trying to find the perfect half breed through forced methods. But where does this dragon fit in? Let me have a copy of this data, it should come in handy."
Again he took out his P.I.C. and connected it to the computer, downloading all the data saved within. It only took a matter of seconds, but he then felt another presence around him. *BOOM! CRASH!*, the entrance way behind him being torn apart.
"This is it...where I've been looking for...", said a voice from the darkness beyond the door. Then a rather large dragon entered the room, muttering to himself to himself as he tore through the thick steel doorway with his talons as if it were so much tinfoil. His eyes quickly focused on the dragoness in the tank, approaching it with a grim determined frown set on his jaw.
The human agent remained still, moving out of the way while the dragon analyzed the tank closely. It took a moment for to notice something small at the corner of his eye, turning to face the small human. Giving a deep growl low in his throat, he glared at him with such resent, "Who the hell are you.. You're not supposed to be here human.", he questioned, spreading his wings out threateningly.
Another dragon in a place like this was something that he least expected. Especially one that seemed to be very angry. The agent stood his ground, trying not to falter in the dragon's threatening nature, "Well, you are right about one thing. I'm not supposed to be here. However I'm here to free this dragoness from this experimentations. Probably the same reason why you are here."
Looking down at the human, he couldn't help but let out a dark sarcastic laugh, finding his nievete momentarily amusing, "Oh that...You couldn't be more wrong...I'm here to kill her.", he said while stepping up to the tank and drawing back his hand with his claws held straight. With a loud roar, he thrusted his hand forward, his claws shattering the glass and spilling the tanks contents.
The agent jumped away to avoid getting crushed by the large dragoness. The hit did not harm the unconscious dragoness while she fell, but the situation had turned for the worse. The dragon's objective conflicted with the agent's own, making him wonder why. Before taking action, he decided to find out more on why he wanted to kill another dragon, "Wait...why are you going to kill her? My mission is to save all dragons in trouble, but if you are telling the truth about what you plan to do...then I have no choice", he threatened while pointing his sword at him and going into an attack stance.
The dragon couldn't help but chuckle at the human's stance, making a dismisive gesture and turning back toward the dragoness, "Do you honestly think an amateur like you could stop me? Leave human, I don't want to have to kill you as well.", he said threateningly. walking over to her side and gazing down at her body.
Being told that he was a weakling made him feel insulted, but it did give him an advantage. Holding his sword tight, he sprinted over and wanted to get in a strike that would not be enough to kill but to have him back off, "I'm no amateur!", he shouted, jumping into the air and coming down with his sword.
The large dragon did not even turn around, his attention focused on the dragoness at his feet. Expecting such an obvious move, he simply lashed out with his tail. The heavy spade at the end of his tail made the perfect countermeasure. The tail the agent saw could cut him in half, so he quickly had to defend himself by using his sword to deflect the hit.
"Too...much...ugh!", grunted the agent, the force sending him flying to the other side of the room. It was so great, that he went head first through the metal wall with a loud crash. Everything around him started to spin, then going completely black.
The large dragon's attention remained focused on the dragoness at his feet, knowing that no human would stand a chance. Thoughts entered his mind of the situation, "The real Lexenia perished a long time ago. Her clone must die so that she isn't used in anyone else's plans ever again."

"Haven't you found it yet Weill?! I'm growing very impatient now that the search has been taking 5 YEARS!", shouted N.D., sitting in a large throne and glaring at one of his Jadow Subordinates. N.D at this time was in a leather jacket with the words "I will rule you!" on the back, along with black jeans that had metal chains on the side.
The Jadow stood before N.D. was different from the rest. Although he looked like your average everyday Jadow, he had books in one arm and had a monocle in his right eye. With a good clearing of the throat, he kneeled down as a sign of respect, "Ahem, my lord. We actually have found the Master Dragoon Spirit as you requested a few hours ago. Turns out that it was right under the city of Saint Falda, hidden deep underground within a shine. But there is a problem which prevents us from getting too close. A barrier that repels Jadow and Dark Soul Dragoons surrounds it in a 50 feet radius. Due to this, we have been unable to continue.", explained Weill, then looking down at the ground in hopes that he would not be punished.
Upon seeing the situation, he took a moment to ponder his next move. It did not take the Dark Lord anytime at all to think up a counter measure to the barrier, "Ah, is that all? Well this situation can be easily taken care of. We'll just have someone who should not be repelled by the barrier to extinguish it. By this information, you should easily be able to guess who I am referring to..take him at once to scene and tell me at once when you arrive.", stated N.D., relaxing into his throne and yawning.
Weill raised his head and listened well to his master, "Someone...oh! Do you mean Abu my lord? He is still at work as you requested and should be able to freely move past the barrier...excellent thinking my lord! We shall handle it at once. But before I do, I also have an urgent message from the Gears Laboratory. It seems that it has fallen under attack from an unknown intruder and is requesting immediate backup."
"Gears?", said N.D. with a bit of a bewildered tone in his voice. The throne behind him was suddenly broken to pieces, screaming at the top of his lungs, "YOU FOOL! WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME THIS FIRST?! YOU KNOW THAT IN THAT IS WHERE MY RESEARCH ON THE ZOAN GENE IS BEING CONDUCTED!"
The sudden burst of force pushed Weill back and sent his books flying. He quickly grabbed his books from the floor and kneeled again, whimpering just a bit, "I'm sorry my lord! You stated that the Master Dragoon Spirit Search was top priority! Please forgive my negligence!", he begged, his eyes glued to the floor and very frightened.
All heard from N.D. was a sigh, then footsteps coming closer to him, "Oh right...well from now on Gears Laboratory takes priority ok? Now then, for the situation at hand with the mysterious attack. Have Vigaro and Baltro take of this. They need the fresh air.", he grinned, rubbing Weill on the head and walking past him.
Weill remained silent, raising his head and standing up straight. He was still sweating, but was now calmer, "I'll contact them at once my lord...and where will you be going to? If you do not mind me asking..."
Without turning back, he raised his hand up as a sign of departure, "I'm going to handle the situation of the Master Dragoon Spirit myself. So I'll be taking Abu with me to rid us of that annoying thing once and for all. If I can do that, then I will ensure my full victory over the dragoons. Even though its been a while, I have to eliminate all traces of their existence. I'll leave Gears to you Weill."

"Where is that child?! Hes always skipping out on his chores...Pearly, have you seen your brother?", asked a dragoness with shimmering red scales, dressed in a beautiful dark red dress. The dress was nice fit for her, cleavage barely visible and having a certain teasing aura.
A small dragoness with pink scales was washing dishes in a large wooden bucket filled with water, outside in the afternoon sun. A very young dragoness, standing at around 3 feet and without clothing because at this time she had no need for it. She looked up with her pink eyes and shook her head, "Sorry mother...but I have not seen my lazy brother recently. Last I heard he was going to town to pick up supplies for us. He does love going to town for some reason...", she replied in a very cute and high pitched voice.
Pearly began to continue her duty of keeping the dishes clean, seeing her mother walk off and looking frustrated. She could tell because her tail was making a trail in the grass, as she always digs her tail into the ground as she walks as a sign of her anger.
The red dragoness walked back to her home, a simple wooden house big enough for five. She opened the door to find another one of her daughters, no bigger than Pearly, cleaning up the house. She had emerald tinted scales, stood at about the same height as Pearl and was wiping off dust from a cabinet, but was a bit too short to reach the higher shelves. The mother then walked up to her and picked her up, the little dragoness giving a meep, "Oh there you are Nimane! Tell me, is it true that your big brother went to town?"
Nimane was the youngest of the litter, still learning how to do everything a dragoness can do at this time. Her big blue eyes looked back with surprise, hugging her mother with a soft and happy murr, "Murr...mother! Wuv my mommy...and bwig bwother? Me no know...talk to bwig sister in mommy's woom."
"So cute...thank you for helping mommy."
With a big kiss for her daughter, she let her down and proceeded to her room. Pass the kitchen, and bathroom, she arrived at the door to her room, which was slightly open. She peeked inside to find her red scaled daughter being lazy and lying on the bed with a book in her hand. The book was something of importance to the mother, so she quickly pushed the door open and confronted her daughter who quickly got up and was shocked to have been found, "Ok Jazmin! What have I told you about touching my stuff! You are in so much trouble!", shouted the mother, walking over to her bed slowly, very angrily.
"Rizan! Why do you have to yell at me like that?! It's not fair that you scream at me for trying to look at fathers last gift to you before he left he you. Besides it's not like he cares about you or us...that's why he left you all alone to raise us.", screamed Jazmin, starting teary eye and placed the book back on the bed.
Rizan gave a long sigh, grabbing the book covered in dust. It seems that her daughter would not let the subject go even after all the years of telling her that she is better off not knowing the truth, "Jasmine why won't you let it go? I told you before... Your father cared about us very much us...he gave his life so that we could go on living..."
Jazmin was a teenager and the second oldest out of the litter. Clothing was needed because her body was developed enough to need a covering. But because she was a teenager she had a very rowdy attitude, which caused problems for Rizan since she had no actual experience taking care of a wild child. Her dress of choice was blouse and a loincloth, similar to what her mother wore she was younger. However with little children she could handle with no problem.
Suddenly, Rizan remembered why she came to check on her, "Oh right. Tell me, do you know why your brother went to town? Your sisters told me that your brother went to town, but nobody knows why. I would really like to know why he would take a risk to go there. You know how dangerous it is, plus it risks us to being found by the Dark Lord."
Jazmin just walked past Rizan without saying a word, not feeling like answering her question. But she knew that if she did not answer she would get in big trouble, "We know that already Rizan. We aren't little hatchlings anymore you know. We understand the risks there is to travel back and forth. Eurasia should be back soon enough so don't worry too much. All I heard him say is that it was very important.", explained Jazmin, sighing then walking out the room.The book in
Rizan's hand came to her attention, holding it close to her and shedding a tear, "Maybe I should tell them about you...perhaps I will tell them about you when Eurasia gets back. You'd better stay out of trouble...For some reason, like your father, you always seem to get into it."

The Everything City. Where you can find anything, buy anything, talk to anyone and have anything happen to you. The place where anything can happen, both good and bad. Just watch your step, or you could become a meal. Literally and sexuality.
**Date - Unknown
Location - Saint Falda, Capital of Thanival.
Time - 12:22 pm**
Saint Falda, "City of Dreams" as it was referred to. But by dreams, it meant shattered dreams, since many shady people enjoyed hanging around it. Although the city was large, there were very few skyscrapers around. Another thing was the fact that specific parts of the city were territories for the larger organizations run by species who managed use enough force to acquire it.
Downtown was the only shared spot, mostly for humans and the other lower species on the caste system run by N.D.. Dragons especially, were on the bottom and were forced to be slaved to every other race. Humans were just a bit higher but not by much, receiving the same treatment.
Lucky ones however were blessed with the ability to run a good business, like the founder of the most popular bar, "The Dragon's Den". This bar was restricted to dragons and their pets however, so everyone else was unlucky enough to not be able to enter.
Inside the bar, a certain dragon had stolen all the attention and giving everyone something to laugh about. A shimmering silver scales and standing at around 9 feet was the main attraction this day. Dressed in blue shorts and a black shirt with the words, *E is for Enormous if you know what I mean*, printed on it.
"That is exactly what I meant! But just keep it under your snouts and in your treasure hoards, or else Eurasia will hunt you down! As my motto goes.", he joked, lying back in a wooden chair perfect for his size. The Dragon's Den was a bar for all dragons, complete with a cyan dragon who was the bartender and owner.
One of the dragons called out to the dragon, tossing him a bag of some kind, "Eurasia! Heres your pay as promised. Great work as usual! Pleasure doing business with you and hope so again in the near future."
Eurasia caught it with one claw and placed it into his pocket, giving it a tap as he started to walk out, "Ok my draggies! Eurasia is off for some R and R. I'll be back to treat you all again soon, but until then keep your treasure hidden and your friends close to your hidden treasure.", he shouted, walking out the door quickly. Everyone gave him a wave and a tail slap to the ground, the bar's way of sending dragons off.
Another dragon noticed that Eurasia left something behind. This dragon was one of Eurasia's good friends, wearing only blue jean shorts since he enjoyed showing off his upper body to the females. The main reason was from the luster his blood red scales, the way it shimmered in the light got him good with the ladies. Standing at a staggering 14 feet, this dragon was a contender who sometimes fought along side Eurasia.
From the chair that Eurasia sat in, he left an electrical device that he always sees on his waist. It was real small compared to his size, so he grabbed it and rushed out to find him, "Eurasia! Eurasia! Come back! You forgot your thingy!", he shouted as he pushed the door open. The door was made to accommodate nearly every sized dragon, built at a staggering 30 feet tall and 10 feet wide.
As he came out to the city, he saw at the last minute Eurasia's tail turning a corner. Passing a few dark alleys before reaching the corner, he ended up crashing into someone, "OOF!", he grunted, falling onto his rump. Its rare that someone of his size was pushed back, opening his eyes slowly to see that it was none other than his good friend.
"Ow Toma...that hurts...well not really. Whats up?", said Eurasia, helping his good friend Toma up to his feet. He noticed that he saw the P.I.C in his hand, quickly patting his sides to check his pockets. A large groan came out of his maw, taking his P.I.C. back from Toma while he offered it back, "So thats it...damn thanks alot Toma. I would've been screwed if I would've lost that...nor would I be able to go back...I'll make it up to you soon ok?"
Toma and Eurasia gave either other a high five, but Eurasia was the only one who had to give it high, Toma being so much taller than him and such. Watching his good buddy run into the distance, being engulfed in the crowd of other species walking through the busy streets. Giving a relaxed sigh, he started to make his way back, feeling the need to strut his stuff some more.
Quickly from one of the dark alleys on the way, he was snatched and dragged away from the streets. He gave a loud grunt as he body slammed into the ground, then feeling his body being dragged on the rocky and rough ground. Unable to tell who it was, he was unable to get free since he was being dragged away without a way to get back up.
With everything out of the way, Eurasia was about to make the preparations to return home. However it seems someone had their eyes set on Eurasia, giving him a shove from behind, "Excuse me...are you Eurasia?", asked a voice from behind him.
An uneasy feeling breezed past him as he nearly fell over, turning slowly to find himself looking up at a large Rhino towering infront of him. The public began to crowd around them, gasping and murmuring stuff. "OH GOD! IT'S ONE OF THE N CYPHERS!", someone shouted, then running off in pure panic. The name rang in Eurasia's ears, then realizing that his situation has turned from good, to bad in mere seconds.
