《New World +》Ch.21 Dragon Fall Perspective 2
Advertisement
"Duck!" Jace heard the yell not that he needed to after a roar like that his ears were still bleeding he had been feeling the danger that was coming for a while now they all had but he had thought that it was just going to be a storm. Instead what he got was something he had always wanted and yet never wanted. A fucking dragon as he washed it swope over head he felt giddy and frightened, after all dragons were a staple of fantasy world it just wouldn't be complete without one, but seeing the poor knock offs of chocobos getting their collective shits decapitated Jace had to admit he really wished it wasn't here right now.
'Couldn't there be a zoo or something I could admire it at.' Jace complained as he and mainy other rushed towards the cave entrances. As they got closer Jace watched as the T-Rex like body of the dragon lifted up its head add bellowed out a torrent of flames. The blinding light of the fire made it impossible for jace to stare at it but he was able to see it cut a large gorge into the mountainside as the avalanche caused by its attack dropped down over the cave entrances Jace cussed as the force of collapsing rocks knocked almost half of them off the cliff face.
"Thats some goddamn Kaiju bullshit right there you sad excuse for a dragon!" Jace yelled as he wiped his spear around he smashed it end on the ground breaking the clay covering that he put on it so he could use it as a walking stick. Both Andrew and Don had told him that it was a pointless thing to do but so what it felt cool!
"JAVAILENS!!!" Jace bellowed out amidst the confusion of the dragons attack. Many of the groups scattered by the attack continued to panic but others responded to his voice forming up with what equipment they had and throwing them at the monster. They were they ones that had gone out the first day that nightmare of nine hours in a living hell of near constant attack by overwhelming odds. They had learned to move even terrified to instructions and they were terrified even Jace could feel his body shake from it as he watched as the swarm of javillines bounced uselessly off the dragon's scales.
'Fucking dragons why did it have to be a fucking dragon it should have been a storm dame it all!' Jace kept his thought to himself as he continued to shout orders. "Form up into groups, aim for its eyes or wings or even its fucking dick if it has one. You get the fuck out of its front do you want to become a roast. You over there your group one get away from the edge or you'll go over like the others." Jace felt the oncoming danger as he leaped forward to avoid the absurdly long whip like tail snapping down where he had been standing he heard the rock behind him crack from the impact "And will someone pin down it's goddamn tail!"

As Jace finished yelling the dragon bellowed out drowning out his voice and then charged forward people quickly vacated its path as it started to blow fire lighting its path aflame Jace felt himself buffeted by the thermal updrafts caused by the fire as the beast lifted his wings to catch the quickly expanding air.
"That clever bitch!" Jace cussed as the dragon started to take off with a flap of its massive wings the powerful thermal updraft was forced down further pushing everyone around Jace felt it as the gale force winds pushed him off his feet and rolled him like a ragdoll across the ground.
"Bitch, Bitch, Bitch" Jace cursed as he rolled "Son of a fucking bitch." Jace screamed as he hit his head on the mountain side although looking at it from this angle it looked more like a cliff side that went into another cliff.
"Ugh." Groaning at his aching head Jace could only stare at the flying behemoth his head buzzed with the familiar feeling of the world trying to kill him Andrew had always called it well 'IT' like it was sentent or something. All Jace knew was that it was the feeling they all got whenever a 'Random Encounter' happened he felt it when he first woke up here and most people did too hearing the distant sound of rolling thunder Jace felt himself get abnormally pissed of fucking course the dragon had to sound like thunder he bet 'IT' knew that the bastard make us think it's just a storm then drop a fucking dragon on our ass you fucking dick I hope a real thunderstorm springs up and smites your scaly ass friend. Jace glared at the beast as it started to turn around for another pass at them.
'Go on you fuck one billion volts right down you fucking short fat ass neck you flying fuck. Pull a Ben fucking Franklin on your scaly kite ass gone drop the fucking wrath of god on it go on do it... DO IT...DO IT!!" Jace felt himself yell as the world went white his body convulsed as all his muscles seized up on him and a rush of energy flowed out of him. The sudden feeling of weekness was followed first by a pain screech and the by a pissed off roar as something hit the cliff face... Hard.
As Jace regained his awareness he saw a lot of dropped jaws and one very singed, very angry, and very oversized lizard.
"Holy shit Jace when did you become the son of fucking Odin!" Jace felt like he knew that voice but before he could take the time to look for the voice he suddenly felt the the wind pickup as the wind continued to pick up speed he saw from the cliff face a large number of people being lifted up by a tremendous force of wind it almost looked like a tornado as it deposited the one or two hundred that had fallen of the cliff before. Jace watched unable to move as a confused group of people tried to help up an exhausted and pissed girl off her feet. Feeling more than a little excited Jace's smile blomed in to a full blowen shit eating grin as a strange pale green light surrounded the him and everyone he saw. His pained and spasming muscles were soothed and he felt energy flowing into him as he stood up.

"HELL YES NOW WE'RE IN A FUCKING FANTASY WORLD!!!" Jace bellowed.
*ROOOOAR* the dragon returned his yell with its own challenge as Jace prepared to get layin to it.
"Hey you guys if you're ok get into groups and help us out here!" Jace yelled "And some one find the healer and put them in the safest fucking place you can!" As he finished giving out orders he could see the wind girl nod and start speaking to the ones around her. As that was happening the dragon decided that it was done waiting for them and charged forward without any real hands for balance it swayed wildly wiping its closed wings and head at anything that it could get close to. It was mayhem a few spears managed to find perches in its skin but people were thrown around like ragdolls still with the help of wind girl making sure no one to a hard fall or went of the cliff, and the nameless healer that managed to get the ones knocked down up again the settled into a unsteady stalemate. Soon the spear blows and javelins that got close enough to hit the damn thing started to bounces of its scales and with a triumphant roar the dragon unfurled its wings and opened its mouth wide. Jace could see the sparks of light starting to gather until a massive gust of wind struck the dragon from below catching in its wings the dragon found itself lifting up as its flame breath pierced forth sailing over their heads.
Picking up on the chance Jace tried once again to unleash lightning following the feeling he hade before it was a lot simpler than the first time as he found his vision white out and his body drop as it convulsed. 'This is so fucking sweet' Jace thought as his crippled body began to recover 'No focus Jace we can geek out about fighting a dragon with our new wizard powers latter.'
Hearing the pained sound of the dragon again Jace's vision cleared to see the monster recovering its footing disappointingly despite its blackened and smoking scales it seemed perfectly fine.
"The lightning weakens its scales!" A voiced shouted "They should be thin enough for us to pierce through them for now but they'll recover soon!"
As Jace heard the familiar voice he could only be disappointed he had wanted to blow holes into the thing with his lightning attacks but instead he was just the debuffer support lame. Add to that that it had super healing scales to Jace should had known that this world's bullshit biology would screw him over.
'I just got my awesome wizard powers and I already want to reclass this is bullshit!' Jace complained in his mind as he watched the mayhem unfold reading his spear Jace ruched forward into the fray.
'It's probably dumb to put myself at risk like this if I happen to get taken out a bad time we could lose momentum but that kind of planning stuff is more Andy and Dons specialty. Besides it will be easier to zap the fucker if i'm closer.' Having convinced himself that closing to do epic battle against the ten ton behemoth was a good idea Jace quickly found himself in the thick of it as the main attacking force tried again and again to pin and stab at the dragon's different body parts before being thrown off healed and coming in at it again. Jace felt like an ant honestly and as the battle wore on it became increasingly clear that they were losing every blast of thunder hurt more than the last and took longer to heal every fighter to more time to get back into the fight and hit fewer and fewer times before being thrown off. Even the winds wind girl made became less ferocious as time went on still it went on for awhile it seemed to go on for almost an hour before with a final shake and an indignant roar the dragon threw itself off the cliff and soar away.
Angry at the draw jace cussed off at the receding form of the dragon lacking the energy to do much eles. After the threat had left Jace and the other gathered up to discuss what to do it was decided that they had to at least try to remove the avalanche debris even if it was unlikely that anyone survived that the still had to make an effort to find out. It was slow going but using their new found magics it went alot faster it would have went quicker though if the healer hadn't fainted as soon as the dragon left not that Jace would complain about it he knew being the healer sucked more so considering how exhausted he became after just one lightning bolt he couldn't help but respect the person that was able to keep healing for seventeen minutes straight although it had felt like five times that.
With a final push Jace used is eletrical magic to find perches throughout the stone debris and with a pull it quickly pulled away with a rumble. As it opened up he saw a shocked and wide eyed Andrew and behind him an equally surprised Rachal. Overjoyed at finding that his friend was ok Jace smiled and with a wave greeted them.
"Sup guys hope you didn't wait to long." As he stood there waiting for them to answer them Jace noticed something in Andrews hands. 'Isn't that one of Lee's weird makeshift... and then it exploded.

Saga of the Jewels VOLUME ONE COMPLETE
Prefer to listen to rather than read Saga of the Jewels? I'm also releasing it as a free audibook serial podcast on iTunes here! Epic YA JRPG-influenced GameLit progression ensemble-cast steampunk romance fantasy! When Ryn’s hometown is destroyed, will he be able to gather together the twelve Primeval Jewels in order to defeat the evil Emperor and save the world of Mid? A fan novelization of an amazing Final Fantasy game that doesn’t actually exist, that currently releases at least one chapter a month. Epic in that this will be very long. “It’s a marathon, not a sprint!” (-Kandaj) YA in that this should be enjoyable to~13-year-olds and upwards. Some gore, some swearing, some sex, but nothing more than PG-13. JRPG-influenced / GameLit in that it uses lots of JRPG tropes, particularly from Final Fantasy. I’ve read a lot of fan Final Fantasy novelisations and you can basically think of this as a fan novelisation of its own Final Fantasy game that doesn’t actually exist as a game... Progression in that the characters level up over time (though not with visible litrpg stat boxes). They grow in ability through training and experience, gain new skills, individually and as a party (think Chrono Trigger) and spend time discussing and stratgeising about how to defeat their opponents. Main protagonist from book three would definitely be able to defeat himself from book one! Ensemble-cast because we've got quite the roster of misfits here. The first volume is all from the main protagonist's POV, but it starts dancing between his and different POVs thereafter. Steampunk in that we’ve also got airships, steam trains, pistols and ambiguous ‘amber bars’ that function a bit like artificial lights… Romance in that there is lots of shipping here, a few love triangles, and you may be kept guessing as to who will actually end up together... Fantasy in that we’re in a vaguely pre-modern setting. We’ve got swords, magic, dragons, dungeons, monsters, all that good stuff. * "This story captures that Final Fantasy quality perfectly. Kiddy but also grim. The characters are great... Severely underrated and needs more favorites/follows. I look forward to seeing how this story will unfold." -Gilgamesh9999 "Starting at the end and jumping backwards is not a writing style seen every day. I'll admit, I was a bit skeptical at first, but you've executed a fairly crazy idea very skillfully so far. Overall, a strong start to what could be a very strong story." -RandomFF.netUser "You definitely have my interest piqued. It'll be interesting to see where the story goes... It definitely has an 'old school Final Fantasy' type feel to it, which I appreciate...Good job! I am glad you are going into more details about the story you laid out in the prologue...of course the big burning question is 'You know they lose in the the first chapter, so how will they end up winning?' That of course, is the story you're writing...so we'll see how it goes! #Following." -KyleQuicksilver (quotes are from reviews on other sites) * If you enjoy it, don’t forget to boost Saga of the Jewels on topwebfiction.com!
