Summary

~How bright can love burn when there are two impossible choices to make~

Maka: My eyes focused more on him, as I sped up to where he was. If I didn't hurry I knew she was going to do it. I ran faster but my I knew my legs wanted to come up off the ground, I fought my urgency to keep them on the ground. The cars were coming faster and faster, and I knew she was starting it, controlling their minds, and then everything would crash. They would all be dead, and though I knew it was forbidden how could she tell if she couldn't even see me? I spotted him right as he hit the break I knew in a heart beat I was too late.

Soul: I quietly moved through the streets as the moon came up. I looked up and saw they were jumping up roof tops and I sneaked around to cut them off knowing they would sneak into a human house or start some kind of panic with their powers. I was quiet as I sneaked, and I could hear foot steps coming towards me, first quiet but as they got closer and closer, they were getting louder and were stepping in a steady beat. I stay in the shadows, until I know they are one step in front of, and once I see their toes, I jump out only to see a pair of shocked emerald green eyes.

Soul's home town was burned down long ago by dragons that walked the earth. He remember how they flew and the teeth they bore. He remembers everything especially his rescuer that saved him from drowning 10 years ago. Yet all he remember of his rescuer is her eyes were green as emeralds. Train has nightmares of his past every night followed by his rescue, yet as the nights go on his nightmares are getting worse and what's even more freak to him is they are starting to come true. Along with his team Soul has killed dragons without second guessing, until he runs into the girl who saved him 10 years ago. Now Soul has a choice take her life, or face the consequences if he decides to save her.

When night time comes she hunts within the forest for beasts that are out or those that sleep. But when she finds out the hunters have come to their town, she recognizes the boy she saved from drowning in the lake. At first she avoids him but when she starts to see visions of his death by one of her family members she gets close to him but the closer she gets she starts to see the vision is changing, its not a family member that is going to kill Soul but it is she, and the dragons are going to destroy the town, for Maka doesn't just have a human side, she must hurry before the Solar Eclipse happens after that she stays dragon till the Summer Solstice and Maka is running out of time when she starts to see that Soul could kill her too.

~Prologue-Train -This is How it all Started~

Panic was rising in the streets as they passed over the sky blowing fire from their mouths and burning homes. Their giant claws grabbed people throwing them, dropping them from the sky. Objects would be held as one threw the other would blow fire as it came crashing down on people or houses. Their teeth tore into human flesh as they ate, and some would throw them up and other would catch their prey in their mouth. Their eyes though, reptile eyes that burned with the color of fire, if you took one look into them you surely die, for even their very sight burned your insides.

I stood out on the edge of my town watching the fire consume everyone as they flew around everywhere roaring as loud as a lion. I couldn't keep count of how many were flying, I just stood there shocked at the discretion they were doing. My town was being destroyed by monsters I thought were once awesome to read about, dreamed of riding, but I mostly dreamed of soaring through the sky on one. Mom always read books to me but I was always told they never existed, they were a myth, I thought that until now. Right in front of me I was seeing what they were doing to my home.

"Train!" I did what mom told me to do, I ran to the edge the of the forest where I told them I would stay till they came and got me, but what if they never made it to me, what if they died right in front of me?

Mom was shouting my name as her and dad were getting closer. They were running as fast as they could, I stood frozen just watching everyone die right in front of me, people running with flames on them, other being devoured, and everything exploding with such heat. I stayed there just watching my parents, but I had to run to them, I had to feel them to know they were alive and we were getting out of here. I had to know my parents were alive, not just my imagination playing tricks on me.

Dad was reaching his hand out while the other held moms hand tightly. I kept running and running even if tears were swelling in my eyes. I had to reach for them, I held my tiny hand out to them words were choking in my mouth, I could say mom or dad, I could just feel the tears running down my cheeks, and my own words strangling me to death.

I was getting closer and closer each time reaching my hand out running as fast as my 8 year old legs would carry me. Tears were blurring my vision but I knew they were real when mom stepped in front of dad only to take me in her arms. She picked me quickly with both of her arms and she ran with me right behind dad, and I couldn't look away from the destruction they were causing.

For a moment though my eyes caught sight of a girl standing in the mist of it all, running towards us, I almost called my mom to stop, yet my vision was blocked by eyes of fire and I screamed and shut my eyes tightly. I was thinking this was going to be my end; I herd the roar but didn't want to see the flames escaping its mouth. There was no flame that came only my mother screaming and throwing me to the ground, I looked up to see moms back on fire and her screaming to make it all go away. I tired coming near her, but my father knew better, he picked me up and ran with me over his shoulders. I reached out to her kicking and throwing a fit as I watched my mother burn to her death in the forest, her screams were echoing through my ears through the forest, as I just saw her whole body become a human torch.

"Mama!" I cried. "Dad we have to go back for her we can save her." Dad ignored me and just kept running but he stopped dead when a huge thud hit the ground. I didn't look, but I already knew what it was when I herd the growling. I could hear dad's heavy breathing and I could even hear his heart pounding against his chest, mine felt as though it had stopped completely. I could still hear mom screaming, and with enough courage I looked up and only saw a flame, mom is dead…she is dead. Mom was dead and still burning. She's dead…

Dad started flinching in pain and set me down on the ground, as the thing raced off into the sky high above the forest, I knew what happened when I slowly moved away from him. He started to scream as I saw his insides burst into flames. His eyes filled with fire, he couldn't scream with all the flames coming out from his mouth, and I couldn't stay when I saw the fire being blown from the dragon's mouth and catch the forest on fire. I looked up and knew it was waiting for me to run. Dad kept screaming and the forest fire was spreading, I had to run, I had no choice. I ran with tears running down my cheeks, I left my screaming dad as the forest fire was starting to gobble him down. I ran as fast as I could with the fire catching up and I heard the screeching roar, I took one look behind and saw it following me with flames bursting from its mouth.

I kept looking back until I couldn't feel ground anymore. I looked down only to see I was stepping on air, and when I saw the beast come at me with such force I felt my head get whipped and I began to fall with dizziness focusing on my vision, I didn't know if I was to hit ground, or hit water, or maybe dragon was going to get me. But there was no ground that swallowed me, nor a mouth; instead I felt the coldness of the water surround me. Slowly I sand down, watching the evening sun drown out from me.

I sank deeper and deeper watching the light disappear from me; I knew I could just not swim up to the surface. My own eyes were coming out of focus I didn't know what I was seeing anymore, I just felt another person enter the water and swim down to me. My eyes couldn't stay open anymore, yet I saw someone else had joined my watery grave with me. I felt arms around me and the next thing I know is I am being blasted out of the water.

I feel air fill my lungs as we come up. I cough up water and spit some out. My eyes were getting so heavy I couldn't keep them open. I felt ground and saw my surroundings were trees and tall grass. I looked up too see midnight black hair hanging down from her face, she was looking around to make sure there wasn't someone around. I reached up and felt something cold on her neck I made a fist around it and tugged on it. She looked back at me with beautiful emerald green eyes. I stared at them as she stared at mine; they were so beautiful to look at, all too soon darkness over took me.

~Alice~

His eyes a beautiful yellow they were that reminded me of the sun. Once he was passed out, I felt my necklace get tugged from my neck, a charm that marks me as on of them. I knew I couldn't stay and I knew I couldn't receive it from his hands. I could hear them calling for me, and I had to hurry. I called to the water as I brought it over to me, and placed it on my hands; I gently glided along his body to check for any wounds or muscles that needed to be repaired.

I could still hear them, I knew I couldn't wipe his memory of my rescue; I couldn't even snatch back my charm from him. I had to go, slowly got up my damp hair dripping down my sides back and onto my red dress. I ran from him so no one else could find him, so one else could see, particularly my people, I had to keep him alive, for some reason I saw him in my future, he and I were about to break the rules.

~Soul~

When I woke all I knew it was sometime at night, the moon was high and the stars were gleaming. Yet the moon was red, red like blood, and I just stared up at it, not moving, at all. I just started at the red moon. The stars though were the same as always, dimmed white yet shown so beautifully in the night sky. The air was so thick I coughed when I breathed it in. The smell of fire, the smell of smoke I could see rising from the forest and from where my town was.

I sat up slowly feeling no pain at all, I looked at my hands only too see one had a necklace in it with a charm, a sliver charm that had one dragon wrapped around pearl as though guarding its treasure. The eyes of the dragon though were ruby red, I wanted to get rid of it and throw it in the water, but then I remembered who belonged to, and it was that girl who saved me, the green eyed girl. I looked at it one more time and felt anger, I wanted revenge, I wanted them dead, all of those monsters dead! I went to the lake and threw it in.

I didn't look back as I kept waling, I walked away alive, I walked away as the last one out. I walked away changed, with hatred towards every single one of those demons. They took everything from me, now I'll take everything from them.

Thanks for the reviews everyone
