Lancelot

Once upon a time, there was an evil magician who used the arts of black magic to rule over the entire world. He would bring chaos and destruction to every living being in this world. But one day, a man and a woman appeared and defeated the evil magician and saved the entire world. The man and woman got married and were pronounced king and queen of the world. 

Lancelot was the king’s greatest knight. In terms of strength and physical ability, he was the strongest in the world right behind the king. Lancelot had two sisters, one older and one younger. They weren’t very far apart in age. The younger one’s name was Aphrodite. A beautiful young woman named Aphrodite who has the power to heal any wound as she wishes which she inherited from her mother. Lancelot has physician abilities that outclass anyone which he inherited from his father. The older sister’s anime is Izanami and it seems she didn’t inherit anything from her father and mother, she basically the odd one out of the family but everyone still loved her. Since she didn’t inherit any ability she was very much quiet and kept everything to herself, she never told anybody anything. 

It was a bright sunny day, with birds chirping, the tadpoles singing and the worms wiggling. Aphrodite and Izanami went apple picking together deep in the forest accompanied by knights of the kingdom. All of a sudden a dragon appeared and attacked and captured both princesses in the forest killing all the knights in the process. But one knight did manage to escape that scene severely wounded. He entered the castle with blood all over him and the king right in front of him. 

“Sir, there was nothing I’ve could’ve done… the princesses were both captured by a dragon.” He said faintly. 

The queen quickly tended to his wounds and he was healed in no time. 

“We were attacked by a massive red dragon out of nowhere, there was nothing we could’ve done, it was too powerful and it killed everybody. I just narrowly escaped the scene. The dragon flew away with the princesses.” The knight stated.

The king was quite composed but you can tell in his eyes he was extremely infuriated. He quickly called Lancelot to his throne.

“Son, I know you’ve heard the news by now. I want you to go save Izanami and Aphrodite from the monstrous dragon that captured them. I can’t go myself because the kingdom is under threat and I have to stand by and protect it. So I choose you to do it because you’re the only knight capable of doing it.” The king pronounced.

Lancelot humbly agreed and as soon as the king dismissed him. He went off to where his sisters are located. Lancelot has many special abilities and one of them is if you are really close emotionally to Lancelot he knows the general area where you are, no matter how far away in the world you could be.

It was quite a journey for Lancelot. It took him seven days and seven nights of pure running to reach the location in which his sisters were at. He found a volcano-type biome, and once he took a step into it he knew his sisters were close. Running through the biome he stumbled across a massive castle which was much bigger than the one he lives in. But he felt the presence of his sisters in that castle. 

He explored the castle making his way to the top of the castle which was the throne room. In the room, he felt the most evil presence he has ever felt. He kicked down the huge doors that led to a massive throne room where he saw his sister Izanami and the dragon. Izanami was tied to the throne. The dragon one who faced Izanami quickly turned around and let out a roar that shook the entire castle. Lancelot quickly used one of his moves, a flash step which makes him move faster than the eyes could follow and attacked the monster’s extremely durable skin. But with how fast Lancelot was the dragon couldn’t keep up one bit. Then the dragon stopped on the ground which let out a shockwave that made Lancelot go flying into the wall. He definitely broke some bones on the impact but he quickly got up and decided to use his strongest special skill. He lifted his sword until it was pointing straight up in the air. A yellow aura appeared around his sword, as he swung his sword he shouted the word:

“EXXXXXX… CALIBUR”

And a long yellow beam came out from his sword and cut the dragon really badly. The dragon was quickly incapacitated and not able to move. Lancelot quickly rushed to Izanami untying her from the throne. 

“Lancelot!!!” she cried while embracing him. “Thank you so much for saving me”

Lancelot embraced her tightly “Where is Aphrodite?”

“You just defeated her,” she stated as she stabbed Lancelot with a poisonous dagger in the stomach. Lancelot quickly fell to the floor bleeding and dying from the poison.

“When I was younger, my true father was brutally killed by both the king and queen. They took me into their arms welcoming me to my new home. But did they think I would just forget they killed my father? The only person I truly loved in this world. They took away my father from them and I’m going to take away their children from them so they suffer the same way I did. I still retained the ability to use black magic from my father and practiced in secret. That’s how I managed to turn “our” little sister into a dragon that listens only to my command. Our beloved angel brutally massacred all those knights. I told her to do that. Now, look at you helpless with no one to come to your rescue. It’s been fun brother, Farewell.” As Izanami was about to kill off Lancelot a semi-wounded dragon towering behind her who seemed to be healing most likely because of Aphrodite’s ability to heal any wound. A woman quickly swooped in and grabbed Lancelot. As the woman was running away with Lancelot, a man appeared before Izanami and the dragon. Lancelot fainted on the woman’s shoulder.

Lancelot woke up on a bed with Aphrodite sleeping on a chair by his side. He quickly woke her up and asked her what happened.

“ Both the king and queen came to our rescue, the king defeated both Izanami and me in my dragon form. I have no memories of being a dragon but the king said Izanami’s black magic was far superior to her father’s and could’ve well killed him but she lacked the experience. With Izanami being a massive threat that might not be able to be under control, he had to sadly put her to rest. Once that happened I was no longer a dragon but I was still wounded from the attacks both you and the king gave me. Mother was there too and healed both of our wounds” Aphrodite whispered.

Both Lancelot and Aphrodite were crying because they loved their older sister and she meant the world to them but sometimes the tables don’t turn your way. Sometimes you’re faced with a decision where you have to choose the right outcome even though it may hurt but you should never doubt how you feel.
