Mythical beast
It's eyes were a deep red and black, there was a thin line in the middle, as it's retina was like that of a cat.
Zaya now knew why the birds she saw earlier had acted strangely and shook in utmost fear.
This creature this was some sort of god to them,a dragon!
Zaya stood still under her table as there was nothing she could do at that moment that would have been reasonable.
One direct blast of fire from this creature's mouth will send each and every one of them to their graves.
Zaya began to ponder, how to get every one to safety that was the most important thing on her mind.
That was what the vice principal had said on the Pa system.
Unexpectedly Ashara that was still purring fiercely at the back in her cat breed form launched towards the broken wall, aiming at the dragon's head.
She landed, and the powerful dragon shook it's head trying to get the raging Ashara off it.
It moved the back in a few steps,Zaya could feel the school had began sinking into the ground from the stumping of the great beast
It was at this moment that Zaya discovered that even as high up as they thought they were.
The dragon only needed to stand to look into the second floor.
It spread it wings out,it was wider than the whole school itself, covering the sun and over shadowing the school.
---------
Dragon's rage
it flapped hard lifting itself to the sky,Zaya suddeny felt the out burst of wind carrying her and the table away, bags flew, papers floating around some students were carried out of the class.
Zaya knew they were all going to be scattered soon as she hit the ceiling hard, the school won't hold up much longer and this was the last thing she'd hoped for.
Ashara still on the dragon's head kept pestering it.
Zaya knew because of the dominance the mythical beast asserted,Ashara couldn't control her primordial half breed form by herself anymore.
Her primordial energy has taking control of her natural senses.
She suddenly jumped from the dragon's head upwards.
Transforming to her peak primordial form as she hit the dragon's head with all the strength she could garner.
Zaya was excited as Ashara had done it she had reached the peak of her power.
Zaya knew the dragon had sensed it too,
The mythical creature became furious, Zaya screamed as she jumped from the ceiling where she was stuck,"June, she cried, "give me your shield!"
June joined her hands together activating the nano shied emitter on her wrists and throwing it in force towards Zaya.
The dragon flapped it wings with all of it's strength,which was entirely focused on the middle school.
Only the sheer force that the dragon coerced from its skin was enough to disable peak primordial Ashara sending her straight to the hard ground below.
Amidst the chaos, Zaya dived to the ground of the class room as she jumped out through the broken wall, everyone else in the class screamed for her to return but she didn't.
She activated the nano shield that was on her wrist immediately jumping out of the broken glass wall.
A big barrier appeared, covering that whole side of the school but within a split second it was broken from the strength of the wind in the dragon's wings.
Sending the school into great shatters and ruins.
---------
Broken city
The Great dragon went around the whole city in what seemed like a few seconds.
After that it began blasting the wind from its wings on all the tall buildings in it's rear, sending them into fatal destruction.
Also causing the most powerful and reaping earthquake that ever occured in the phantom City in years.
Zaya could ear the peaceful continuous drop of water, dropping and dropping again and then, her eyes snapped opened.
She looked around agigtatingly, curious about where she was.
It was extremely dark ,she raised one of her hands up, she was glad she was still alive and well.
She tried to feel her surroundings she knew she was stuck in the middle of the rubbles probably underground.
Her heart began beating loudly as she remembered what had happened with the dragon she wondered what the time was and if the city had fallen already if the others were still alive.
She recalled what June had told her when they were under the table.
June had asked her to stay where she was for a while, and that they'll come to her first since they could sense her primordial energy's signature.
Because their's haven't awoken yet, but Zaya knew that plan was off for now.
This went way worse than they could have imagined,she hadn't known how long she's been out or if they were even alive to search for her.
That's when Zaya realized she could not feel her right leg she touched it.
It hurt as there was a large cut in it,laps of blood was flowing out from her leg to the ground it was cut by one of the tiles of a locker room.
She remembered the ancient staff she had.
If it was here with her,she would have healed up without having to think about it.
But that was not an option now, the staff was gone.
She had to stop the bleeding and remove the sharp tile from her leg.
She transformed to her fox form and gently removed it from her leg.
Thanks to the boost of strength the fox form gave her,the bleeding subsided.
--------
Finding the others
The writhing pain from the leg haf subsided.
Zaya calmed her self down as she thought about growling hardly destroying all the remains of the phantom middle school.
But she knew she would probably kill some people herself and get the dragon's
attention and she could barely growl more than twenty times consecutively.
While the dragon could destroy the whole city a thousand times over before it lost it's fire power.
Zaya activated her primordial energy, hoping for the others to find her somehow.
In immediate response she could hear a loud sound coming from the top of the rubbles at the surface.
She was ready for anything, her claws sharpened, her fangs growing larger.
She relaxed her muscles as she sensed who the creature on the other side was.
Zaya was relieved as she stood up on her feet with one of her legs and began shifting the big fallen frame over head to the side she put her hand over her head as a large pile of other materials came crashing down.
She could see a little ray of light away.
She climbed up opening it wider,the broken wall moved as Zaya began to use her primordial strength to increase the gap.
"Hold on" Ashara said appearing above her head as she broke the wall into pieces with a punch,both her and Ashara landing on the ground.
Zaya staggered as the pain in the leg got worse,"Hey Ashara" Zaya said.
Am glad your still alive,"
"No Zaya said "Ashara,Am the one meant to be saying that."
"We have to go find the rest" Zaya said.
She then asked Ashara "how bad is it?"
"The whole city has fallen" Ashara said,is it in flames,a glimpse of thrill could be seen in Zaya's eyes as she asked.
No Ashara replied it isn't, The dragon only used the force in it's wings.
Should we go up? Ashara asked,No Zaya said it won't be long before it attacks the in flames.
Come follow me Zaya said we must find the others and save any on we can we bring them back here,let's create space.said Zaya.
---------
Calling the dragon
They both entered deep into the rubbles as they began to dig throuhhtbit and began saving part of the students that were still alive thanks to the innate senses of the fix and a cat they savedba lot of numbers of the students.
After a couple of hours it was evening time,and they'd found about two hundred students in the middle school.
They were at the center of the rubble each of the students seating down as they were all chattering with each other about the experience they just had.
Luckily for the phantom girls they were all fine.
The weregenes in their cores helped them stay alive.
Zaya could sense the fear and sorrow in the other hearts of each and everyone amongst her.
She took the opportunity as she stood up and calmed them down most of every one didn't know who she was except for a purple fox who had saved each and every one of them.
They all kept shut waiting to hear what Zaya wanted to say.
Zaya had never been good in giving speeches but she knew she had no choice but to talk some sense into these people.
She cleared her throat then spoke.
I know you all have so many questions,I know you are afraid,some of you are wondering we're your parents her but I assure you we'll all be alright.
We are going to be moving now,towards the sown town of the city an underground facility called the sanctuary.
I want to tell you that we the phantom girls are going to do all that's in our power to protect all of you.
She then yelled,The phantom City would not fall!
They all yelled repeating after he, again and again.
A wry smile crept across Zaya's face,a smile of hope.
Zaya turned back towards the crowd they all stood up waiting for what the purple fox had planned to do next.
Her stretched her hands wild facing the rubble that was on top of their head she gave a powerful growl.
The whole place shook immensely,there was a loud explosion as the whole place Zaya faced was clear of rubble.
The soothing movement of the wind crept across their skin Zaya faced the back as she gestured for them to follow her.
---------
Pauline's mother
With Zaya at the front of the crowd,June was positioned at the back to protect them with the new nano shield she just made.
Ashara and Natasha at the front on the left and right hand side while Pauline and Zoey at the back on the left and right hand side.
As they got out of the school,Zaya stood and stared in awe at all the buildings that have been leveled to the ground.
If not falling,there was no sign of living beings as they were all under the remains of the city.
Zaya shuddered in fear as she stared at the sky there was no sign of the moon or sun it was just crimson red like it had been painted in blood.
Her heart sunk when she saw that far away was a red and black dragon that seemed to be aiming towards their location really quick.
Zaya became furious as she began to run forward getting faster in each step, she didn't care too much about what had happened to the city.
Her priority was to get these people to the sanctuary.
She increased the speed in her steps ignoring her leg injury that hurt,she'd tied a bandage to it to stop the bleeding,it wasn't much but was enough for her to maintain her stamina.
They successfully got to the road that led to the down town sanctuary they could see it afar off.
Zaya ran fiercely,each time facing the back to see if the other students were still behind her.
They got closer to the sanctuary,it was now one mile ahead.
At Zaya's front on the right hand side was a tall building,it had been broken into two halfs,which had crashed into the lower half of the building.
The building started moving side ways aiming to block the road path towards their front.
Zaya stopped as she was getting ready to use her growl to blast the building off.
As she was about to destroy it she heard a loud roar behind her.
She faced back as she saw the dragon wasn't far away from them anymore,it Began descending slowly from the sky.
The mythical beast blasted flames from its mouth aiming towards the group of people.
Zaya yelled for June to activate the nano shield.
June activated the shield which was immediately destroyed due to immense heat from the coming fire.
Zaya jumped upwards landing in the midst of the middle school students as she prepared to growl.
Suddenly another Nano shield appeared above them and this time it was hit by the blast of fire from the dragon.
Zaya was shocked that the shield could hold the fire,After the blast Zaya looked towards were the shield had originated from.
Standing on the half crashed building was a woman.
From the outfit she wore and the aura she carried Zaya knew she was one of the top executives in the "WMCO".
She wore a white battle suit which had two swords behind her back.
A shining white glittering shoe a mask and one long black hair,Zaya stared in curiosity,she knew who this person was,"Pauline's mum"!
---------
The sanctuary
The dragon landed on the ground sending huge shock waves to the whole surroundings.
Pauline's mum yelled on the top of her voice
"get into the sanctuary!" as she stared at the dragon, "I'll buy you time!"
The formation scattered as they all began to run towards the sanctuary.
Zaya destroyed the crashed building at their front using the Ancient fox clan's growl.
Soon enough they got into the sanctuary,
along with the other middle schoolers.
Zaya looked upahead,it felt like an ocean of humans.
It was an underground protection facility built in Tantalum and hafnium to resist the heat.
She gave a heavy relieved sigh glad that most people in the city were alive, she could see the other girls had gone into the massive crowd in search of their parents all except for Pauline.
She was still at the dragon's location staring at her mum as she shielded herself and dodged continuously from the dragon's attacks.
Zaya ran back towards were Pauline stood,
"Pauline!" She yelled "get back your not protected!"
Pauline stood there like an unyielding rock, unmoving,Zaya got closer to where she stood.
She then realized that Pauline wasn't staring at her mum,it was something else.
Zaya looked forward she could feel nothing was wrong with Pauline.
"Pauline are you alright?"
Zaya asked "what's the problem?"
"Can you not sense it Zaya?"
A swarm of evil beasts, they are coming from far and wide swarming the area in a vast expanse.
"What?!" Zaya asked dumbfounded, Pauline never talks like this she thought.
Maybe she'd been pushed to hard, Zaya pondered.
From a heist to her school falling apart then her mum becoming some sort of warrior all these was too much for her to take in.
Zaya then spoke, "Pauline your mum will be all right,the shield can definitely protect her from the dragon alright?"
"And she's not the only one some soldiers have joined too."
Pauline stood still her gaze unmoving,
Zaya tried to drag her back towards the sanctuary but Pauline felt as heavy as a mountain.
Zaya then thought was it her half breed form kicking in she after all knew nothing about The Lion clan.
She didn't move from where she stood and that's when Zaya sensed it.
Pauline wasn't wrong at all there was a swarm of fire creatures.
Zaya could feel they were in thousands if not tens of thousands gaining on the city at the craziest of speed.
