started picking and throwing the rubble up off Argos's broken body.

Trina seeing what he was doing, ran over and laid a had on his shoulder. Soon all the rubble was cleared off of Argos and Trina fell on him crying.

“ Don't mourn for me Trina. Its your turn to rule our country. You'll be a fabulous queen and with Tristin at your side you will rule long and wisely.” then he took a painful breath. “ You realize Tristin that once the ceremony is preformed you will lose the title Tristin from Mora Toga right?”

Trina looked up in surprise “ The prophecy! We are the ones it was talking about!”

Looking up smiling, “That's...right......Trina.” Argos said wincing with every word

“You knew?”

Nodding Argos grabbed Tristin's and Trina's hands “by the power invested in me as king of Sumematra and as Trina's father... I pronounce you as... man and wife... also the heirs to the throne.”

Tears coming to her eyes again unknown whether of joy or sorrow “Daddy if you die all my blood family will be gone.”

“ No you still have your mother she was the first prisoner of the dragons since the treaty was signed.”

Then a malevolent voice speaks from behind them “That's right Trina and she is right here.”

Turning around Trina saw her mother chained to the terrible Gridin. Tristin held Trina back from running to her mother recognizing the trick.

“Tristin let me go!”

“No its a trick I can't let you get hurt.” he said stepping in front of her and holding up his shield as Gridin released a stream of fire.

When Gridin stopped his fire and saw that Tristin's shield was perfectly fine he realized where the magic had gone and lunged. As he lunged all the people that were along the edge of the room ran out the front door and Gridin completely ignored them. Tristin seeing exactly as he hoped at the right time grabbed Trina and ran to the side, to late for Gridin to adjust his route he ended up crashing into the remains of a marble pillar. Removing a titanium knife he always keeps strapped to his upper arm, Tristin ran over to the queen Izebella and cut her bindings. Tristin grabbed Izebella's arm and Trina's and ran out of the ballroom up to to bed chambers and told them to hide in one while he ran back and got Argos. Before he did so Tristin slipped Izebella's old engagement ring and slid it on her finger. They kissed briefly then Tristin ran back to the ballroom. While Trina collapsed in her mother's arms and wept out of happiness and sorrow as she told her mother everything. When Tristin arrived back in the ball room he found no trace of Gridin except a note written in the tongue of the dragons. He rolled it up and put it in his pocket and picked up Argos who was just barely alive.

“Argos listen to me, hang on a little longer the queen is free and with Trina. We're almost there just a little longer.” and as he said it Argos seemed to regain strength and color.

As they got to the bed chambers and found the queen and princess talking Argos seem to regain enough strength to walk on his own with little help . But Tristin noticed that Trina had changed out of her ball gown and into her traveling clothes. Trina noticed that Tristin and her father were almost there got up and helped Tristin get her father into the room she and her mother had been resting in. Argos stumbled to the bed and instantly fell asleep. Trina went to talk to her mother some more and came back with a small medallion. Tristin decided to stoke up the fire which had grown tired and weak. once he was happy with that he leaned back against the wall and pulled out a small instrument. As he started playing Trina stepped out of the shadows with a surprised look on her face.

“You play?” she asked as she came over and sat down.

“ A little.” he said with a sigh

“ I agree with you on that note. Today was suppose to be care free and fun but it turned out to be an utter disaster. Well almost at least.” she replied to his sigh smiling and laid her head on his chest.

He looked down with a smile and wrapped his arms around her. Suddenly Trina remembered the medallion and held it up to Tristin. As soon as it reached the level f his heart the ruby gem in the middle of the medallion turned a deep red. Trina stared in utter surprise for the ruby had been clear for as long as she could remember.

“What does it mean?” he asked in curiosity

“It means that you are a true DragonWarrior. A heart full of courage and love. Someone that will fight for peace, prosperity, justice and love. Also that you are a true royal. Someone descended from the DragonWarriors themselves.”

“Does the name Elaine or Derek ring a bell?”

“Yes Derek does actually. He was the last true DragonWarrior written about. Why?”

“He is or rather was my Grandfather.”

“My god what happen to him?”

He died in an ecazema out break. The first and last casualty. I was one of the victims. I was to young to remember exactly what happened but shortly after he died everyone who was sick got better even me. My mom was said that she had lost her father but overjoyed that her only son and child had lived. She used to tell me stories about how he had escaped from Gridin's dungeon before the treaty was signed.

“Then who was your father.”

“ A man named Edward apparently. I have never met the guy.”

Falling asleep Trina said “ I'm sorry.”

“Its okay. You get some sleep now.” yawning “and so will I.”

“Good night Tristin.” and she quickly fell asleep

Softly he said “Good night Trina,” drifting off “ I love you.”

Later that night Tristin's eyes wandered endlessly under his eyelids. Soon he broke out in a sweat and woke up gasping as if he had held his breath for a long period of time. Gently wiggling his way out from underneath Trina he got up and climbed out of the window. Sitting on the roof he tried to remember what his nightmare was about. Looking out into the distance he searched for a sign, any sign, of a dragon even if it was a foe. Then he saw a nearby town welcoming a dragon, a truly magnificent beast. When their eyes met Grodon took off and Tristin started climbing down to the ground. Grodon land near the castle with a whoosh of air.

“I hear you gave my brother quite the slip.”

“I guess you can say that.”
As Gordon started eying the amulet lying on Tristin's chest it began to glow faintly.

“You realize that you have made a very powerful and influential enemy, right?”

“ Yes and I have realized its my destiny to stop Gridin.”

“Not you alone but Trina as well.” Grodon said as the amulet as grew brighter.

Noticing Grodon looking at his amulet he looked down as it started to levitate. Then with a burst of white light Tristin was showed the DragonWarrior. He was also showed his grandfather who was the last known Dragon Commander and his life as the only DragonWarrior. As suddenly as it happened the amulet turned back to normal. Tristin looked up at the stars and had an idea. Saying a hurried goodbye and ran back to Trina after looking at and reading the treaty.
