I stood tall and strong on a hill, gazing over a never ending field of tall green grass and flowers. The sky was a clear blue with the wonderful scent of pine and oak in the atmosphere. But I was not alone, another was with me in the open field of grass and flowers. A few dozen meters from me stood the most beautiful being in the universe. Sera Ruby, wearing a dress of burning white flowers with a golden white headdress that had resemblance to a crown. She had a thin chain necklaces of gold with a crystal shaped rose as the main piece of decoration. She held a small and gentle smile on her short snout, looking at me with companion and love. She raised her hand towards me, asking to join her. I could only smile as I took walk, walking toward the beautiful dragon.

But as I took the few first steps, the sky began to darken as the ground violently began to shake. I began to panic as the creaks in the ground began to give. I began to run towards my love, only quickening the pace of decaying plants and the ground's crumbling. The earth began to rise and fall as the sun was eclipsed into darkness, but I did not care about that. Sera still stood still and held her claws out, still illuminating her love through the destruction and chaos. I began jumping from falling ground to reach her, only for her to be farther away as I go on. I then tripped and began to fall with the earth below my feet. I looked up from my descending doom, only to see Sera looking down at me with a lone tear in her eye. She began becoming smaller and smaller until the world around me became pure darkness. I then began to feel weightless in the darkness that consumed me, feeling absolutely cold and emotionless. But right as I thought there was no hope, I saw two white eyes appear in the void, looking down at me with sorrow.

"Nova 'Vadam. I know not who you are, but I know true love. And you have fallen in it with my daughter." said a voice, echoing through the darkness.

"My daughter is in danger. The cave is infested with the greedy griffins and she is in need of your help. Save her as my last request on this earth." said the voice, waking me back into reality.

I gasped, shaking from the intense nightmare that scared me to my bones. It felt as real as the air I breath, yet my logical thinking kept trying to tell me it was just nothing more then a nightmare. But it felt so real that I couldn't ignore it. I brushed off the fur blanket, got up and grabbed my weapons from the table. I lowered myself and began making my way past the pile of gold to find what the being had told me. I saw ten griffins practically bathing themselves in the gold without care or respect for the owner. Remembering that Sera was in danger from these thieves turned my blood icy cold and anger to burn like the sun. I unsheathed my ax, my anger demanding to drench my body and the floor in their blood. I let out an angry roar that stopped the griffins in their tracks, making their hearts skip a beat in sudden shock. Without any other warning, I charged with my ax drawn and rage becoming ablaze.

The first one didn't even get a chance to raise his talons in defense, for his throat was slashed and smashed with the ax's blade. Two of the ten were close enough to get the spats of blood from their fallen comrade. They were too slow to draw their short swords and ended with my iron cold fingers grasping their necks, crushing their windpipe and snapping the spinal cords. In a three seconds after unleashing my rage, three of the ten were dead. These Griffins are worthless fighters! The remaining seven were no longer shell shocked and had their weapons drawn out with their predator instinct kicking in. Two more came charging at me with thin long swords raised high. A Challenge? Hardly! I'll enjoy gutting you all. I still held the dead griffins in my heads and I desired to use them. In a single spin of my feet and powerful throw of my right arm, the dead griffin was sent like a baseball at the charging two. The griffin body was a blur and sent the two into the ground hard. I quickly charged at my next target, a lone griffin that was separated from the rest, looking at me and ready to piss himself. He didn't even raise his sword as I smacked him with the dead body in my left hand like a rag doll. I sent him skidding across the cave floor with his neck snapped in a single blow.

The last four griffins had taken flight and were about to dive bomb me with their spears. I quickly spun my arm like a slingshot and threw the body at the flying group, taking down one of the three. The other three dived at me with deadly speed, in turn, I rolled out of the way, nearly being speared by them. I quickly glanced over the cave, looking for a weapon. I then sprinted towards the fallen griffin I had thrown the body at. He a had weakly got up to be met with my foot meeting his face, slamming him head first into the stone floor with my foot turning his skull in splinters of bone. I grabbed the spear from his dead grasp and quickly deflected a blow from a dive bombing griffin. The two others were close behind his friend and were about to charge again. I quickly changed my hold on the spear and threw it at them, impaling one of them in the chest, sending the impaled griffin spiraling down to the cold floor. The other griffin didn't falter and kept charging like a mad bull. I used his blind rage to my advantage, sidestepping out of danger and quickly grabbed him by the arms. Using his momentum, I spun and slammed him hard into the ground face first, breaking his beak inwards, shattering his skull, snapping his hollow boned neck and spinal cord upon impact.

The last griffin glanced over the mess of his fallen comrades, realizing that he was the last one in the cave that wasn't dead or gravely injured. I gave hims no chance to think further as I grabbed the spear from the floor and threw it like a bolt of lightning. The spear struck him in his shoulder, sending him plummeting into the ground. I then looked around the cave desperately, but Sera was nowhere, only the griffins. The Griffins... They took her! I glanced behind me to where the last two griffins alive were, anger still burning strong as my bond with Sera. They were groaning as they shoved the dead body off of them. I walked over to them slowly, my footsteps sending sound waves of my presence as I was radiating my hatred towards them. They looked up to see me looming above them with a mix of rage and impatience. They were swiftly grabbed by the throat and thrown towards entrance with the other griffin that had a spear impaled into his shoulder. I stomped hard on the floor towards the one that recovered first and grabbed him by the throat carelessly. I held him close to my face, staring into his fear filled eyes while I had the other one pinned down with my foot. He looked dazed, but still scared shitless.

"Where is Sera." I said darkly. He coughed a bit and answered dryly.

"Who?" I loosened my grip, wanting information before he suffocates to death. The griffin took deep and rapid breaths as he looked around to see the rage and impatience still in my eyes.

"Where. Is. Sera!" I shouted, scaring him more as panic clouded his mind.

"I don't know who that is!" he said with fear clearly taking over his thoughts.

"The white dragon! Where is she!" I yelled, tired of his pathetic answers, tightening my grip as my patience quickly faded away.

"The dragon slave is at camp-" as soon as he referenced my love to being their slave, that made me lose it. To call her a... Slave, the same very being that I would die and serve for to be called a slave? A slave! That outright enraged me to my core. I slammed him hard into the ground again, gaining groans of pain from him as he turned over onto his belly and began to pathetically crawl away. I then stomped my foot onto the pinned griffin, making that one cry in agony as I dislocated his wing.

"That should keep the other there for a while." I thought as I then pinned the griffin dumb enough to call my love a slave with my heavy foot.

"You will PAY for calling her that!" I yelled, ready to bring him a world of pain as I firmly grabbed the base of his wings.

"W-what are you do-" I quickly interrupted his sentence and replaced it with screams of pure terror and agony as I ripped his wings from his back. His screams satisfied my anger and encouraged me to inflict even more pain onto this dishonorable scum. I then kicked him onto his back and stomped onto his chest with my huge foot, crushing his organs and breaking his ribs inward. He could only let out weak gasps as his broken ribs punctured his lungs and cut up his internal organs, his mind full of nothing but pain. I walked away from the pain filled, gasping griffin and stomped towards to one that I had dislocated his wing. He was trying to get up as he held his unnaturally bent wing, only crying in pain in his pitiful attempts. I shattered his hopes of escape as I smashed my foot with powerful force into his back, fracturing his spinal cord. He screamed in pain as I grabbed him by his throat with no care and looked into his watery eye of blood and tears.

"Where is your camp you pathetic weakling!" I said, only gained cries of pain and mumbling nonsense from the clearly broken griffin. I groaned with impatience as I simply crushed his neck with a flick of my merciless grip. Now I was left with the last living griffin in the cave. He still had the spear lodged into his shoulder and was already bleeding a river. I loomed over the drained griffin with a dam of overflowing anger ready to be unleashed onto his weak soul.

"Where is your camp." I said with surprisingly less anger and more of a sickening calm tone, still sending shivers down the pale griffins spine. He saw the storm of hellish and chaotic rage within my eyes, ready to bring his world to an painful end.

"In the forest... Not to far... Don't kill my brother..." He pleaded weakly, already looking pale from blood loss.

"You and your group are not only worthless dishonorable thieves, but kidnapping lowlife slavers of the innocent. Greed for the wealth and gold at the extant of others suffering plagues your soul like snake venom. Rotting scum like you don't deserve to live a life of pleasure. If anything, you don't deserve to life of anything but eternal suffering for your sins. Redemption be damned for all your sickening kind." I said darkly, grabbing the spear and digging it deeper into his shoulder. He moaned in pain, rising his arms weakly to stop the pain as I increased the river of blood to a sprinkler of blood. I began twisting the spear and plucked it out, letting the red life blood escape from the overflowing wound. I began looking around the mess of dead and blood, only the thoughts of Sera's safely and well being came to mind as I began arming up and getting ready.

"I'm coming for you, my love."

"What is taking those idiots so long?" mumbled the griffin leader. He was well known for being a skilled bounty hunter that went by the name Blood Eye. He ruled over his band of killers and hunters. He had around 30 strong griffins under his command as they had set camp in the Everfree Forest. He knew he had a huge target on his back in Equestria, but he couldn't resist the amount of profit he could gain if he sold these rare and expensive furs. But he didn't even care about that now. He had found an unguarded mountain of treasure in a lone cave up in the mountain near his camp. He was without a doubt set for life with the rest of his men if he could smuggle the goods and gold out of Equestrian soil. He only found one teen hatchling that didn't put that good of a fight. He could just simply smile as how he made it rich quick. He sat in his tent laying down in his bed roll, daydreaming the things he could buy, or better yet, the fame he'll get to brag about to a few of his fellow bounty hunters. But all good things come to an end as the griffin he called "Rookie" had barged in once again into his tent.

"By the name of the gods. If this is another emergency and ends up being another prank, I will personally force feed you timberwolf sap till your skin and bones!" He growled loudly, not wanting any more jokes or pranks. For example, a bee hive had fallen onto his head by accident, but the problem was that the bees attacking him and only him. He still has reminding scars from that horrible moment in his life. But that still was not even close to some of the shit he had dealt with while running his little group. His thoughts then turned to worry as he saw the look on the rookie's face. The look of worry and terror.

"Were under attack by a dragon! He's making a massacre out of us!" the Rookie said, gaining Blood Eye to quickly get out and deal with the problem himself. He left the tent and ventured into the campsite with the new recruit to see that his camp made into a shredded mess. Blood and gore was sprayed everywhere as both equipment and tents were torn. The ground was scattered with disembody griffins that were either sliced in half, decapitated, or had limbs ripped off violently. In the center of the mass gore stood what resembled a dragon. Blood Eye had see his fair share of dragons, even fought one too, but this one just seemed more different than what was considered normal dragons.

He stood a great towering height of 2.4 meters and was buff with iron strong muscles. A dragon with the muscles of a Minotaur boxer? That was not normal. Most dragons had fire resistant scales, this one seemed to have grayish brown and somewhat bumpy skin. He also had no lower jaw, just four terrifying mandibles like that of a bug. He looked more reptilian in nature then an actually a dragon, but that didn't change the fact that he had massacred his griffins to a bloody stew. But that didn't even come close to what scared him the most, for the griffin was entranced with the beast's eyes. He had done many terrible things in his lifetime, earning a lot of vengeance filled enemies, but he had never seen so much raging anger built up in eye like his. So much fury with an equal amount of sorrow filed those yellow orbs. His rage consuming being balanced with the discipline of a harden warrior. The amount of overflowing anger towards him was like nothing he had ever felt or seen in his lifetime combined. Just staring into his unnaturally demonic eyes totally made a new definition of what true hatred was to Blood Eye. The strange dragon was drenched in the red blood of his griffins, staring at him with his burning soul of pure hate mixed with the never ending thirst for vengeance. He raised the huge sword at Blood Eye like it was a weightless feather and pointed it towards him.

"You. Killed. Her." He said in a disturbingly calm in a demonic tone. If voices could kill, the whole countryside would be nothing but burning ashes of smoldering glass. Blood Eye was entranced into abyssal of death in his yellow eyes, seeing a beast that had no boundaries or morals on what he would do to him. The dragon, no. He was not a dragon. He was a more of a demon then mortal. He clearly knew that this demon would make his world slow agony with no mercy if he got him. But fear had instantly took hold of his mind, unable to make a run for it. But there was no hope or escape as his world was shattered as he was impaled with the huge sword in a blink of an eye. He was raised by the huge impaling sword and merely melted around the blade, falling to the ground broken into two. The broken griffin looked up at the rookie, seeing his truly petrified eyes. Blood Eye could only stare as he watched the rookie suffered to the fate of the Damon. His wings were plucked off brutally and arms torn off like twigs. Before he finally blacked out with the sweet embrace of death, he witnessed the poor griffin being opened up and gutted with a dagger as the demon roared into the heavens. A roar of pure sorrow and agony with hate burning of a dying star, about to go supernova.

Nova 'Vadam had failed to save the love of his life, he lost his true love, and will never forgive the griffins for their crime... Or himself for failing the only love he had ever known.
