Yes.

"Yes." You state quite frankly.

"I see." the Dragon replies.

"Is that a problem?" You ask the Dragon.

"No. It is no problem at all." The Dragon gives a fiendish smile, it sends goddamn shivers down your back. You pass by more and more food vendors and odd shops until you reach the outskirts of Abundance City. The Dragon has been quiet and observing your every move. You're unsure what to think of it really. It seems to be a helpful friend, wise and knowledgeable. For now you resolve to learn more about it and how it can be useful to you.

"I am sensing more than a few powerful Aura readings." the Dragon whispers to you. You keep walking forward, father away from Abundance City and into the wild valleys of the Vast Forest. "They should be here any minute now." You grind your teeth in anticipation. "Are there any powerful abilities I possess Dragon? And will I be able to defeat the three men descending upon me right now?" you ask the Dragon in a hurry, now sensing the three Aura readings.

"You are resistant to fire, have enhanced strength, and flame manipulation. These will all best based on your natural talent. I hope for your sake you are quite intelligent. " the Dragon is rattling off answers while casting protective barriers around you and itself. "And yes." The Dragon gives you a raucous laugh, "We will rip their heads from their spines and suck the marrow from their bones.

The three members of the Black Diamond Sect land with thunderous force right in front of you. Sending dirt and detritus in every direction. You can sense the Aura of each of the members, they are powerful, but not individually, you sense you can take them out if you can divide and conquer. You take a easy and fluid stance. The three men to their credit give no questions and adopt stances of their own. "YES! FIGHT!" Your Dragon is snarling and frothing at the mouth now.

The one in the middle is closest to you. His aura is shallow and lacks and defining color. You throw a quick jab with your left hand. The man is slow to react and is clipped on his cheek, he lashes out with a wide right hook. You duck under it easily and respond with a fierce straight left kick. The kick slams into the man's solar plexus, sending him three feet into the air and slamming into a great oak tree. The other two men look surprised but still converge upon you. The one on your left strikes out with a high front kick aimed towards your chest. While the one on your right jabs at your eyes. You swat the jab at your eyes in time but are met with the full force of a front kick to your midsection. The strike is powerful but not enough to disorient you. You feel your Aura spike as soon as the pain flares in your body. "YES! RELEASE THAT PAIN! TURN IT TO FIRE! BREATHHHH!" The Dragon is manic at this point, watching your battle with almost perverse entertainment. You release a deep breath, forcing it from your gut and willing your Aura to burst forward. In the blink of an eye, flames surge from your body and scorch the ever living hell out of the two assaulters. The two men scream in agony as orange flames climb and spread across their cloths. The man on the right gurgles with pain as his eye sockets melt into little puddles of goop. The man on the left charges at you, on fire and doing his damndest to take you with him. You let the man strike you with his full force. He hits you in the stomach with a left straight but it does little to damage you. Once again you feel the flow of Aura, you can feel yourself leeching the man's Aura as he strikes you. You then turn that leeched Aura into your own life essence. This is what it means to be a Fire Dragon Cultivator.

You put the man into a high head clinch, striking him in the face with heavy knees. You then stream Aura into your hand and burst it out in a pillar of flame. The man screams and then dies. The Dragon is laughing but it just sounds like static. You feel euphoric, powerful, free. You can sense the Aura from their dead bodies being released into the soil. "YES JUST LIKE THAT!" the Dragon screams gleefully. "IT'S ALL YOURS NOW!"

As easy as drinking a cup of water you swallow the Aura of the three dead men. You see the trails of life essence siphon into you, at the same time feel your Aura grow stronger and denser. The bright orange hue darkening into a deeper red. You take a deep breath. The higher ups would be now be sensing their three members deaths. It's now or never. Will you join the Black Diamond Sect after having proven your strength or will you run now.
