What is left

.....
Gana, and I were flying for long time now. Peter was with us, on Gana's back. Gana seemed quiet, she knew Pyron very well, so she wasn't worried.. Though i still couldn't know what he wanted to do, but for now we should stay focused on where to go.
Flame-"Im tired...were are we going again?"
Gana-"I dont know Flame,but keep up!"
Peter"Hey! I see something!"
Flame-"What? Where?"
Peter-"Over there!" Peter pointed in front of us, where there was smoke... as if there was a war.
Gana-"They need our help! Lets go!" Gana and Peter ran toward the smoke was, I looked at the town for some more.. Something wasn't right... It was too quiet to be a war, i couldn't hear anything from there, but then i followed Gana. When we landed, there was nothing.. as i though there wasn't a war, but just a desert town.. This is what Buraki's machines can do? A whole town totally destroyed..
Flame-"Look at this place." Ah... just ruins.. I grabed a rock and I threw it away and it hit a car, breaking its door... woah, well... i couldn't expect it was THAT ruined.. I looked around, the palaces were gonna fall, still some fire around and no life signs..
Gana-"Nice throw..." heh.
Flame-"Thanks!"
Gana-"Hmm...hold on." Gana ran to the car and began to look at it.
Flame-"What are you doing?"
Gana-"Im trying to see where we are. What city it is." She picked a cars registration and turned to Peter.
Peter-"(213) 897-3656 LA, this is Los Angeles! Well...what's it left of.." Los Angeles... Gana dropped the registration.. She was surprised just as me. Those ruins were LA... I couldn't believe Buraki could do something like this and leave... I was angry.. and sad at the same time.. "Hey,whos that?" Peter pointed at someone standing in the distance.
Flame-"Could be a survivor!" After saying that i just got a bad feeling about that... A survivor.. standing there doing nothing...
Peter-"HEY!!" Ngh! That wasn't a good idea---- I looked again at that thing and it turned and began to look at us...
Gana-"I don't think that is a---" All of a suddent it began to shoot at us and we had to go away from there, flying as fast as possible and then we hidden.
Flame-"It was a machine? Humanlike......Ofcourse..Thats what that king was talking about. But that machine had skin on it! He never mentioned a machine with half skin and human chlotes!"
Gana-"Yeah I know,its a skin-job. We will review that thing later! As soon as we manage to capture it....somehow"
Flame-"Yeah,how?"
Gana-"I dont know..." Surely i didn't expect that Buraki could do a machine like that.. it seemed so real.. a real human.. This may give us a lot of problems.. I looked at Peter. We can't even trust about humans anymore now?... Then i looked Gana.. But i trust her.... uh.. I shacked my head a little.
Peter-"We better hide somewehere! (He looked around) ...over there!" He pointed to a tunnel.... very dark...
Flame-"Are you kidding me? Who knows what things are hiding in that darkness!" And then there was an explosion and behind us there was another Humanlike machine.. Ah damn!.. Maybe if i would've been with Buraki some more i could controll those things somehow.. As i could do with some of the old series. That thing was coming closer.. Gana and Peter was heading to the tunnel.
Gana-"Its either that or HIM!" Maybe.. is not all that dark in there afterall.. Then we went in it and after a while Gana found a lightswitch and turned it on.. we were in a subway..
Peter-"A subway! Lets follow the tracks,it will lead us to the station where we can exit." Wooh, wait a second!
Flame-"And get back to that skin job? No way...Id rather stay here and look for,I dont know...food? Place to sleep? Im really tired."
Gana-"Flame is right. That machine probably emited signals to others,they will start looking for us around here. Besides,its nearly dark and they are better hunters at night. Im tired aswell, and we do need rest. Specially you Peter. Lets look for shelter. Maybe there are survivors that can help us and give us food." I nodded at Gana for that and looked at Peter... So?... I'm not going with you if you don't agree.
Peter-"Ok...youre right." Then we walked for a while... hours.. too much time to find a place to sleep, but more we walk and more far from that machine we will. Gana was leading, and me and Peter got the chance to talk a bit. I asked him just some stuff about him. And then he asked about me.. But i couldn't tell him too much, mostly because i still didn't remember anything before the humans found me inside that crystall.
Gana-"Ok guys,you have to be quiet now...Focus on finding a shelter where we can finally go to sleep!"
Flame-"We have been searching for it for hours now...lets just lay down right...here!"
Gana-"On train tracks? No way!" Aw come on, you really think a train will pass and crush us in a desert town like this?
Peter-"Hey you two,what about this?" We went next to him and looked at what he was pointing. It was a tunnel where we could take a rest......
.......Finally after all this time i could sleep.. it was...beautif-----
Peter-"Wake up!" Peter began to shook me and Gana.. Aaaand WHAT NOW. I took a little breath..
Flame-".......What?"
Peter-"Shhhh! I heard something...." I tryed to understand what was..
Flame-"I dont hear anything."
Peter-"Its 2 a.m. Its dark outside. They are better hunters in the dark...." He's talking..about those machines? "Ive heard them,they're here.."
Gana-"Ok guys grab something very sharp." And so we all did "You will go straight for the neck. Thats theyr blind spot. It will disorientate them for a while,but only for a little while! After you did that...run as fast as you can. Peter, climb my back,now!" So we got all quiet and ready to attack... we could hear it coming closer and closer.......Now!
Flame-"Here he is!"
Peter-"Stop! Its not a machine!" I stopped and saw that was only a young guy.. it also seemed he was running from something, but all of a suddent he pointed a gun to us and we all froze. What the--?!
Gana-"Wait! Dont shoot us!"
???-"Come with me if you want to live!" He ran away and we looked at each other.. But then we heard something very different than footsteps..
Flame-"....Motorcycles?" I turned and looked around.. That's the reason that guy was running.. Uh! This only mean that--"..Runned by machines...go!" Then we all began to run, trying to follow that guy, but the motorcycles reached us. One was next to Gana and she easily pushed it and maked it crash against a post, and another one was next to me. I took a piece of metal and pierced it thru it and it crashed.
Gana-"Nice move."
Flame-"Thanks!" So we stopped "Well at least we got rid of those pests..."
Gana-"And we lost the boy!" Yeah.. where could he---
???-"Up here!!" We followed the voice that led us outside the tunnel and from there the guy could show us the downtown of Los Angeles were we've been untill now.. it was surrounded by machines, the new ones.. It wasn't a good show to see..
???-"Thanks to you they know we are here!" He turned, going away
Peter-"Hey wait! You cant just leave us here!"
???-"Oh yea? Well watch me doing it..."Ngh.. oh that's nice..
Gana-"Stop!" He stopped and looked at Gana..."Look at us... We are tired,hungry...we really need your help...please." That guy looked at each of us... and then he took a breath
???-"Follow me.."

Machine's Evolution

........
I flyed for a while, trying to doesn't let Gana or Pyron notice that i was following them. I didn't know why Gana did that, but she surely had a good reason... Also, Pyron didn't deserve to be traited that way by the others... The story about him is different... just a misunderstandment, maybe.
When i reached them, Gana was telling him about that..
Gana-"...Another thing Pyron, you aren't a full Dark Draco...and you'll never will be."
Pyron-"Huh? What do you mean?"
Gana-"Your heart isn't twisted. It does have some darkness in it, but it's being balanced by light."
Pyron-"I'm confused. What do you mean?"
Flame-"Gana's saying your a hybrid Pyron." I walked from them, they where both a bit surprised... Gana was also pretty angry.
Pyron-"Flame?!"
Flame-"Yes. And your the only one who will put an end to the Dark Dracos once and for all."
Gana-"What are you doing here?"
Flame-"You're not going anywhere without me this time." I went closer. "And whatever you say, Gana, wont make me change my mind.. Im coming with you." Gana said nothing, she just nodded and we kept moving.. I didn't know very well where we were going, also because i didn't know that place as I allways did in the past.. this time it was different... as if i lost something of me.
I looked around and i saw a weird rock.. "Woah...!" There, little drops of rain formed some strange signs... That's.. the ocean. And a castle?.. What does that mean? I looked again around, but there wasn't anything else... It's pretty weird.. But i don't see how it may be possible that a stupid rock could say something important uh.. "uhm...."
Gana-"Hurry up Flame!" Gana and Pyron kept walking, then i run to reach them. That trip was taking so long... And after all the stuff i did before reaching the others, i had no time to rest... i was really tired.
Flame-"Damn...How long are we gonna walk??"... and for that, i was also getting pretty nervous.
Gana-"Just behind the...." She stopped all of a suddent.
Pyron-"You ok?"
Gana-"Something's not right...." I had a bad feeling too.. But i couldn't see anything.. "C'mon let's fly!" Wh-what? She all of a suddent flyed and so me and Pyron did.
Flame-"Would you please tell us whats happening?" Gana was going to talk, but i heard something and i turned... it started to flood and there was a giant wave coming to us. We tryed to avoid it but something pulled us, and then it was all dark.
.......
.......
???-"Wake up, young dragons.." I've opened my eyes...Aw..my head.. where am I?... I looked around and noticed we were underwater, and then i stop breathing. Gah!.. d-damn! How the hell i'm still awake?? I turned and saw a kind of Dolphin, and then i swam back. What the hell?!
Dolphin-"Welcome to the Akkadian Empire!" Then Pyron and Gana got up, and it seemed they hadn't problems..
Pyron-"What happened to us?" .....whut.. i took a breath.. We... can..
Flame-"And how can we....breathe under water?..." That dolphin explained that they gave us a kind of power that allow us to breathe under water... but for a limited time. Gana didn't seem very pleased, something was wrong with this place for her.
Gana-"Oh thats nice. The invite couldave been nicer too.."
Dolphin-"I am sorry,but since you hate water we knew you would never try to enter it,so we had to do this..."
Gana-"Good! Now that we are forced to be here....explain to us who are the Akkadi and why do we need to be here." It seems Gana wanna leave as soon as possible... oh, maybe that's what's wrong with her... she really hates water all that much?
Dolphin-"The Akkadi are very gentle and proud creatures" I looked at that dolphin and almost laughed. Pft.. that guy is sooo weird...! He looked at me and continued "You do NOT want to insult them. It may be the last thing you ever do." I looked around trying to avoid his eyes.. ngh.. "They are also known as «Generous creatures of Darkness» ... If you are afraid,don't show it." How can i be afraid by a dolphin... however...
Flame-"Now...what are we doing here?"
Dolphin-"The Akkadi king, Slaifon, needs to speak to you. Follow me!" Oh, a king.. We followed that guy for a while and he took us to the doors of the King's room, the guards there was sword fish.. This place is not like all the others, i didn't expect to end up here starting a trip from Mist Falls village... More close we went from the king, and more weird feelings i was getting... i felt a great energy coming from the room.. So, we finally came to the royal hall.
King-"My guests have arrived. Please,come in. I am sorry that our hands grabed you and forced you down here,but there was no other way to contact you except for the signs that we were sending you,but none of you havent noticed. We had to do it this way then." Ah.. now i see..
Flame-"Woah...that trick you did on the rock was pretty good."
King-"And not enough good for you to realize it means something." Ngh.. I putted my head down. Yeah that was... Uh.. weird.. what's happening to me..? "I have brought you here to tell you that Buraki made new types of machines..." I looked back at him.. Buraki was working on something before he let me go... Maybe this guy is talking about that?.. "Stronger,faster,bigger and more powerfull then any other machines we ever seen before,and they all have the same,the only task: Whipe out dragon resistence and dragon allies..."... Just as it was suppose to be. Buraki's plans hasn't changed in all these years of war... "We examined the current machines that your army fought againts. You remember death hounds, hunters, dragon killers..." We all nodded, it wasn't easy to forget those machine afterall.. But.. what about them?
Pyron-"Wait,you can see whats happening above the water? How?" Uhm.. good question.. I looked at the king, but i think i already know the answer..
King-"I can see everything thats happening on the surface if I want to." Yes.. that was the only way he could know.. "I just pick a destination,then I can see everything. Thats how I saw Mistfalls end. The war at Dragonopolis. The war between Eastern and Western dragons. Good becomes bad,bad becomes good.."I looked down.."...and now,Embers death....This is how I found all about his machines. But without you,I would not see it. Cause those machines top prioriti was,and still is,to destroy the new born and the main leaders. The main leaders are you two I guess." He pointed to Pyron and Gana.
Gana-"The new born is....Angel?"
King-"Hmm...your daughter. Yes." Angel... So she IS a threat for Buraki... I still have something to understand about her. Like, why i feel pain everytime i'm next to her.. After that the King replyed, Gana started to cry and Pyron and I hugged her trying to cheer her up..
Gana-"Our child is on Burakis top list. I am just afraid that I wont be there for her,when she needs me the most." Gana... All of a suddent i felt pain in my head.. and then, sadness... It.. was Gana... All her energy, feelings... i could feel that somehow. Weird.. it never happened before now...And if i think about it, she was the only one who i never felt anything.. like pain.. as it's happened with most of the peaple i met... Pyron, Lagon.. even with all my enemies.. Is it changed now that i'm close to her?
King-"Gana,she can take care for herself now..."
Gana-"What? For crying out loud,shes still a baby!"
King-"With great powers..."
Gana-"With great powers,comes great responsibility.." I looked down... Great powers.... "Tell us everything you know,even the tinyest details about the new machines!" And so he did. The king told us about everything he knew about the new machines, their new codes, names, powers. Nothing that i didn't know and that Buraki hasn't told me before coming back from the alliance... S-100, C-44: new projects for Dragon Killers and Death Hounds.. But then he told us about a 1,400-pound T-800, designed as a human metal skelton... Buraki.. focused on humans instead of dragons now?! That's... what he wanted to do with all those humans he got in his lab... I can't believe this is happening. The king kept talking, this time it was about the machine that Buraki used to take the humans in his lab, the Transporter and Harvester.. Buraki hasn't told me much about them, but i knew how they worked.... hide everywhere... keep everything..
King-"...And last but not least, the newest,water-proof Hydro-Bots, which we describe as a cross between a psychotic crab and a deep sea fish with an eel body. So,our empire is going to be attacked by those. Noone knows when. But our forces have been gathered and train every day." A lot of new toys, let's say.
Gana-"Its not enough! It has never been enough. We are outnumbered! By..by machines!" I looked at her... Yeah... that's it. "I need to get out of here....Im sorry but we cant even help ourselfs!" She left.. I looked at the king.. and i began to think.. if he know about this, and everything of our story... Does he also know about my situation.. now?.... n..no. I've not been with them untill now...Then i followed Gana, Pyron stayed there for some minutes. Then we got went outside the water.
Flame-"Are you ok?"
Pyron-"Yeah,you put up quite a show there..."
Gana-"Im not ok!"
Pyron-"Gana,whats happening? We can help you."
Gana-"Noone can help me...its over for me. I cant....fight the machines."
Flame-"What? What are you saying?"
Gana-"Im starting to loose my abilities! I lost the power to run fast,to breathe ice,move objects with my mind,control other peoples thoughts.... Whats left is...pain infliction,low level electricity and I can see at least 1 hour in the future." I looked at Pyron, i was a bit worried.. I didn't know what was happening to Gana, but it wasn't surely the right moment to happen..
Pyron-"What about your fury? You used it to save me,remember?"
Gana-"The last bits of my fury powers...yes."
Flame-"Thats...terrible! Whats happening? Are we all gonna loose our powers right before the main fight againts Buraki??"
Pyron-"Noone knows! But Im sure that Buraki has something to do with Ganas loss of powers! And Im gonna find it out! Lets go!" Is this really something connected to Buraki?.. How is it possible to do something like that..? We got up and saw a human that was looking at us..
Gana-"Peter?!" I looked at her. What? Does she knows that guy?.. The human ran away "Wait!!" Then Gana followed him, and so me and Pyron did. We arrived in a village where there was humans.. that seemed didn't like dragons by how they were looking at us..or maybe they just never met dragons before.. Gana was a bit nervous "Has anyone seen Peter Petrelli? Anyone?" Nothing.. "This is pretty importaint." Noone said a word.. Please, not all together... "Heres the little dirt bag!" Someone pushed the same guy that Gana saw before coming here..
Gana-"Peter Petrelli?" He nodded at Gana.
Peter-"What do you want? Are you taking me away?!"
Gana-"We prefer to ask you first...are you feeling different? Like you dont belong here?" Then i looked at Gana.. what is happening here? Who's this guy and why she's asking that?.. Gana kept talking with Peter.. Asking him something about some powers.. her powers.. and then i looked around...
Flame-"What the.. (.. Pyron? Where is he?)"
Gana-"You have my powers Peter, and we didnt meet just randomly. Everything now happens for a reason!" So this guy is coming with us? Peter picked up a few things from his house and climbed on Gana's back. Then Gana flyed.. One day i will understand, right?... And then i followed Gana..
Pyron was just dissapeared without saying a word.. what is he going to do now?...

Years Ago, and Now.

..........
Flame-"No.... not yet....I'm not done with you." I got up and looked Buraki and Luce.
Buraki-"Oh..! I didn't expect that.. actually i though you was here just to save her." I was.. but after all this time, i finally understood that the only way to stop you, is being a member of your stupid army..
Flame-"And then, where i should go? tsk, this is my home now."
Luce-"Your home eh?"
Flame-"Luce... you're the next one in my death list. You should never drop your guard down."
Luce-"Why you--"
Buraki-"Well, how do you feel now, Number 2?..." Uh... what? "Luce just did what you've done with your friends... you though she could be one of the alliance... but then she turned into one of us... that i guess you're still seeing as an enemy." Uh--.. but I...won't leave the alliance.. I will go back from them!
Flame-"I am... different." I turned looking at the door "I'll be in my room, If you'll need me again." Then i walked away. Years passed, and now... i'm here.
While i was with Buraki, i got a big part of my memories back... just as i was hoping. I began to remember about the Light Guardians, my home and something about my father. It wasn't really enough. I still have a lot of questions...
All i remembered just cleared out some of the visions i had during the trip with the group. The Light Guardian.. Dragons that choosen to follow the light and got the rights to protect it to get its power. That was what Luce wanted to do from the beginning, even with my father... Long time ago.
...........
I just have to keep following my plan... and get the right moment to attack Buraki... Now that I did everything he wanted, i think he won't notice me if i'll be away from him for some time.....I have to do my moves carefully, if i want that my plan will work... I'm doing this for you all, friends.
My head keep hurting since i was from Buraki. I'm sure something happened there, strange he doesn't want to tell me the truth. I never felt all this pain for so long time.. i can't even remember how is being normal, without any pain. And I think i won't remember that for some more time...
We walked for a while, Gana was leading the way.. she was one of the leaders now, just as it was suppose to happen... Sadly i wasn't there when --- NGH!.
Flame-"Ugh! (What the--?)" Next to me there was Angel. I tried to walk a bit away from her..
Angel-"Problems with me?" She was looking me kinda badly... afterall she never met me as a friend. I've always been part of Buraki when she saw me..
Flame-"N-no..." Also.. i don't understand why everytime she come close to me.. i feel all this pain... it doesn't happen with the others.."..S-so.. you are.. Angel, aren't you?"
Angel-"Yeah, and you are that traitor." That traitor? Good, what does the others told her about me? *sigh* "You're here because of Buraki, isn't?"... patience, Flame... stay calm.
Flame-"...I haven't seen him for a while.." Is not a lie afterall.
Angel-"No, no. This may work with everyone here but me." Ngh, who gived her this personality? She came closer, and i began to feel more and more pain again, then i tried to stay away.. "Why you keep--- uh?" what? I turned and there we almost reached the city...or whatever is suppose to be.... But luckly, she have to stay away from me now..I felt much better... I guess i'll need a lot of time to get her trust.
........
During the little trip, I've understood that Pyron wasn't welcome in certaint places... Peaple that see him like a monster, hating him just because he's a draco... I know who the Dracos are.. but i found very irritating what peaple was thinking about him... But i couldn't do anything. Pyron was freed from the cage, but still chained. A part of the group, after leaving again the village, was walking next to Lagon, that was taking Pyron with the chain. Others were flying. During these years, i found out a kind of way to let me fly again, i could finally feel the same feeling of freedom i wanted..
"STOP!" Nera yelled and everyone stopped, and I with all the flying group landed to see what was happening.
Lagon-"What's the meaning of this? We have to get moving if we intend to reach Wells before nightfall! You know very well Gana that Burakis machines are better hunters in the dark!" Gana nodded..
Gana-"I know! But I'm here to tell you that we have to change our course!"
Lagon-"Why? This is the closest way we found!"
Gana-"Cause if we go this way we all are gonna die!" Uh.. Everyone gasped, I looked the way we were going.. nothing seems wrong.. it's also pretty quiet.. Then i looked back at Gana.. What does she wanna do?
Lagon-"Gana, what have you seen?" Gana needed a bit of time to give an answer..
Gana-"...Its an ambush! Burakis machines are in the forest and I saw that we loose this battle. But I also saw another way to the city of Wells and its in that direction." She pointed to a valley covered with a thick fog. Everyone gasped. I looked at the ground shacking my head and almost smiled ironically.. Now that's an exuse.. As if all this story wasn't hard enough.
Lagon-"Are you crazy? We cant go thru there!"
Gana-"Its either that or you die...make your choice Lagon,its whatever to me but I pick life,which is the fog..." Then she flyed and after a while everyone followed her. I stayed on the ground walking, then i began to feel like a magic energy and i looked up.. It was hard to see with that fog, but there was a light in the sky, above Lagon and Pyron... Slowly the power was getting stronger.. that was the same energy of Gana's fury, maybe weaker.. I looked at the chain, and then again at Gana.. Does she want to.. free Pyron? All of a suddent a bolt fell and hit the chain, Gana took Pyron pretty fast. Everyone was scared or confused, Nera landed and tryed to calm them all..
Nera-"Please, everyone stay calm! Just let's keep moving! Calm down!" I began to walk "Where do you think to go?"
Flame-"Sorry, but this time i won't just stay here and wait those two to fix this mess." From how Nera reacted at what was happened, i though she knew where to go.. "Do as she said, I'm going with them." Then i jumped and followed Gana and Pyron..
.......
