Hey guys, its Rambles here bringing you the first chapter of my new story, Dragons Trifecta! I've had this one on the back burner for a while and wanted to write about it. I hope you guys enjoy reading it. And for those reading Dragons Clan or An Alternate Dragon Slayer, I'll be writing another chapter for either of them pretty soon. The pairing for this story is currently undecided. But if you've got any suggestions I'll be happy to hear.
But anyway enough of me rambling, lets get on with the story!

Dragons Trifecta

Description: The ability to wield two elements is a trait that few dragons posses. However there is an even rarer power, the ability to wield more than two. In the entire history of dragons and magic, there has only ever been a handful of them. And now three of them are gathering, and they need help from everyone's favorite fire breather.

The scene begins with a young man stood on the roof of a tall building, his hands in his pockets as he looked out across the city. It was a beautiful sight, to see the city lit up in lights. The young man shuddered as he remembered how it had looked the last time he'd seen this same city. He was a well built young man, with short blue hair that spiked up in random ways, he was wearing a long coat over a black shirt and dark grey cargo trousers with plain trainers on his feet. His brilliant red eyes seemed to glow in the night as he watched the city skyline.

"Is it time?" A female voice asked as the figure turned around to face his companion, she was a very attractive woman with long red hair falling down her back in waves, she was wearing a blue cardigan and a green skirt with knee high boots. She walked up next to the man as their gaze focused on one building in particular. "That it?" She asked as the man nodded before cracking his fingers.

"I think its time to start the party, don't you?" The man asked as he looked at a skylight on the roof below them. "I'm gonna take the shortcut. You get ready to bust in the boring way" He chuckled as he set one foot on the ledge of the roof. The woman sighed and turned to walk back down towards the street as the young man grinned before jumping off the roof as he plummeted towards the skylight.

In the building several people were just going about their daily business when suddenly the skylight shattered as the man fell through it, a smile forming on his face as he landed. "Found you!" He exclaimed as everyone in the building all stood there shocked. Before they all grinned.

One of the occupants of the building the man had jumped into then rushed towards him, his hand covered in flames "FIRE DRAGONS CLAW!" He then launched his fist at the man, who ducked under and swept the attacks feet out from underneath him, before hitting him in the gut, sending him sprawling across the room.

Two others then rushed the man as he grinned, one covered his feet in lightning as the other formed rock around his hands. Both swung at the man as he ducked under the rock punch and backflipped to avoid the lightning kicks. The man never stopped grinning the whole time as the two assailants pursued him relentlessly, both trying to land a hit on him.

The man suddenly sprung up as he grabbed both of the attackers by their heads, before spinning in mid air and throwing them into the man who'd attacked with fire earlier. The man grinned. "Sheesh. And you people call yourselves dragon slayers" The man said as the many others in the room all glared at him. "I bet none of you could even stand up to a dragon, let alone kill one" He added as he watched.

"That may be" Said a voice and the man turned, seeing a lacrima screen activate and a mans face appear on the screen. "But my dragon slayers still outnumber you 20:1" The man on the screen said. The blue haired man burst out laughing as he looked around the 20 or so 'dragon slayers' around him

"Please" He laughed "You think these disgraces could handle me? Even with 20:1 they still don't have a chance" He said as his face turned deadly serious. "How about you come out here and fight me yourself?" He challenged the man on the screen, who only laughed in return.

"The general does not fight the pawns himself, Draco" He said, spitting out the blue haired mans name. Draco just chuckled. "That may be, But you should know, I'm not just any old pawn" He said

"That is true. However you shall not stop my army once it is at full strength. Not even a wizard of your level could do it" He said as Draco just rolled his eyes before turning back towards the dragon slayers in the room. "Well?" He said "You pussys gonna just stand there or are you gonna fight?" He asked as he saw 5 of them step forward.

The first one lit his hand on fire, while the second, the only female of the group gathered water around her. The other three all gathered light around them before the five of them all charged Draco. Draco grinned as he jumped up, dodging the fire user before the water user unleashed a dragons roar at him. Draco turned his body mid air and took the roar head on, the water almost pushed him back however he managed to block most of it. As he emerged he saw the three light users surround him. Draco ducked as the first swung at him, before raising his leg as he blocked a kick from the second and he caught a punch from the third, before swinging the 3rd light user into the second, he then blocked as the first swung at him again. Draco laughed as he punched the first light user in the stomach before kicking him away as the fire and water uses both prepared their respective roars. In one movement they both unleashed the roars towards Draco "he he" He almost giggled as he saw the attacks approaching him.

Both roars struck as the other slayers in the room cheered, thinking that they'd won.

That was before they heard the slurping sound.

They all looked to see that Draco was eating BOTH roars. As he finished he let out a load burp before grinning "Delicious" he said as a great pressure began to fill the room. "Suppose I should probably get serious now. I've had enough fun playing with my food" He said, saying the last part of his sentence in a dark voice as flames covered him. The other dragon slayers in the room all backed away, as even the fire dragon slayers began to find the heat unbearable.

Draco suddenly rushed forward, grabbing hold of the water user "Fly" He said as he threw her across the room, his flames raging "You insects are a disgrace to dragon slayers" He said darkly "So why don't I show what a real dragon slayer looks like?" He added as he suddenly slunk into the shadows, before reappearing behind the group of light users who'd attacked him earlier "FLAME SHADOW DRAGONS ROAR!" A roar comprised of both flames and shadows suddenly shot out, engulfing the light users as the room was filled with a large explosion. As it faded it showed Draco, stood in the center of the room, his eyes shadowed by his hair, when he suddenly looked up his eyes were two red orbs. The other dragon slayers all turned and tried to run.

Draco suddenly raised his foot as winds covered his leg "SKY DRAGONS RAZER TALON!" He shouted as he kicked his foot in a wide arc, sending a blade of wind across the room, cutting down several of the fleeing slayers. Those that weren't hit by the blade all activated their respective elements and charged towards Draco. Who ducked as he spun around, blocking attacks from the 7 or so that were left.

He lept up, grabbing two and slamming them into the ground, the force of the slam made the ground shake as he spun his feet in a circle, sending wind throughout the room as the remaining 5 slayers got blown back. Two of them then unleashed roars at Draco, who just grinned and consumed the roars, before unleashing another flame shadow roar, taking out the two who'd roared at him. He blocked a high kick from a lightning user, before his arm changed into a hammer made from silver, which he slammed into the lightning users stomach, ignoring the lightning that jumped down his arm. He kicked her away before forming his arm into a silver cannon, firing out the gathered lightning on a silver cannonball at the two remaining dragon slayers. One of them managed to dodge the cannon shot, but the other got hit and was sent flying across the room.

Draco and the final remaining dragon slayer both faced each other, Draco's magic flared around him as the dragon slayer glared before trying to trap Draco in an earth tomb. Draco just blasted a hole in the tomb and calmly strode towards the earth user. Flames gathering around his hands "By the flames in my left hand" He said.

"DIE!" The earth user shouted as he unleashed countless barrages of rock towards Draco, who just continued to stride forward.

"And the flames in my right hand" He said as the flames began to burn brighter. "PUT EM TOGETHER AND WHAT HAVE YA GOT!" He shouted as he lept into the air, the balls of fire in each hand merging into one massive ball of flames. "FIRE DRAGONS BRILLIANT FLAME!" He shouted as he slammed the ball of fire into the earth dragon slayer, defeating him and destroying the rest of the building.

As Draco stood amongst the rubble of the building he heard a slow clapping "Well done Draco" Came the voice of the man from before "You are exceptionally strong, just as I thought you would" Draco turned to see the lacrima screen somehow intact and the mans face on it once again. "But while you have destroyed this one section of my army. You have not put a dent in my master plan!" He exclaimed.

"If the rest of your army is this weak, then I'll have no problem wiping it all out myself" Draco said as the man on screen laughed. "Oh I doubt you could do that. You may be strong, but can you defeat an army?" The man laughed as the image faded out and Draco sat atop the pile of rubble as he saw his companion from earlier walk up to him

"You could have saved at least a little bit of the fun for me" She joked

"Sorry Rose" Draco said "But I forgot to save you any. Next time we fight, you'll get first crack" He said with a smirk as Rose rolled her eyes, mumbling "That's what you said last time"

Draco's face suddenly turned serious as Rose helped him up "We're gonna have to call the others" Draco said, Rose turned in confusion towards Draco. "Why?" She asked.

Draco sighed "We're gonna need all the help we can get. The other two definitely" Draco said as he paused for a moment "maybe even him" He said. Rose looked shocked as she heard Draco say this

"But I thought you said he wasn't ready?" She asked.

"He's not" Draco replied as the two started walking. "But that kid is stronger than the three of us put together, he just doesn't know it yet" He continued as they walked away from the smoldering pile of rubble.

Elsewhere, in the town of Magnolia, a young man with salmon coloured hair wearing a white scaly scarf suddenly sneezed.

(Across the country)

In another part of the country of Fiore two young women were sat near a campfire with several bandits all tied up around the two of them. The first woman yawned as she stretched her arms "Ahhhh, man, you think these bandits would have at least been a challenge" She said, as the light from the campfire shone on her, revealing her long golden locks and her chocolate skin. She wore a trench coat over a long dress which stopped at her thighs and accented her generous figure. Her bright green eyes seemed to reflect the light from the fire.

Her companion rolled her eyes as she listened to her friend and her complaint. She was sat propped up on one elbow, the light from the fire showing only one side of her. She had long white hair that fell down to the middle of her back with extremely blue eyes. She wore a similar coat to her friend and underneath wore a black tank top with grey leggings. Her coat was draped across her shoulders and tied at the front, making it seem more like a cloak than a coat.

"Not every bandit guild is going to be that difficult to get rid of" The one with white hair said as she turned to her blonde friend.

"I know Akume" The blonde said "But I was hoping to find at least someone with an interesting magic. I mean the last one I saw was when we fought that guy who swore a lot" She added. Akume just rolled her eyes as she thought back to the fight that her friend was thinking of.

Flashback

"Fuck" A figure said as he stood across from the two women, he was a young man with short dark blue hair and an eyepatch over one eye. He was covered in cuts and bruises when he had run into Akume and the blonde. He'd hoped to get past them easily, but they were both proving to be stronger than he thought.

"This kid swears alot ne Akume?" The blonde said as she looked at the kid.

"I'm not a kid! Fuck" The kid exclaimed, before coughing as magic began to build around him.

"Careful Rumi Matsuo" Akume said as the blonde stepped forward

"I'll be fine Akume, and don't use my full name!" Rumi said as magic energy began to gather around her.

The kid suddenly rushed forward, running towards Rumi as blood suddenly gathered in his hands, he then tried to punch Rumi, who dodged. "Blood magic huh?" Rumi said to herself as her magic gathered. "WISDOM DRAGONS SPIRALING SANDSTORM!" She called as she thrust her hands forward and two jaws made out of sand launched towards the kid. He defended but was still cut up pretty badly by the sandstorm. The kid seemed to not care about all the cuts as he rushed Rumi again, this time he kicked his foot in a wide arc, sending a blade of blood at Rumi. "Oooo" Rumi said as she saw the blood magic blade approach her.

"See something you like Rumi?" Akume asked as Rumi nodded.

Rumi then took up a stance as her magic flared around her. Her eyes shone for a moment before she grinned "Got it" She said before inhaling, consuming the bloody blade and grinning "Tastes like shit, but actually quite nice" Rumi said as she grinned. "Now lets test this" She grinned as her magic flared again "WISDOM DRAGONS BLOODY TALON!" And with that she unleashed a bloody blade, just like the the one kid had launched at her

"Fuck" The kid said as the blade hit him, knocking him out.

End flashback

"That fight didn't even last very long" Rumi said as she stretched.

"Probably because that was already pretty beat up when we found him. No idea why he even challenged us" Akume said as she stared at the campfire, before letting out a small breath. In an instant the fire sprang up again, this time the flames were a brilliant blue, much like her eyes. She smiled as she watched the flames dance, before both of them lied down and were about to go to sleep.

Key word: were.

They were awoken by a loud ringing, Rumi then reached into the satchel sat on the floor near them and pulled out the communication lacrima inside. Pressing a small button at the base of the Lacrima, she was greeted by Draco's smiling face. "Yo!" He said in his usual cheery way.

"What is it Draco?" Rumi asked as she frowned, why was Draco calling her this late?

"We need to talk" Draco said and Rumi visibly rolled her eyes "Obviously" She said "Or you wouldn't be calling me" She added.

"True" Draco said. His face suddenly turned serious as he looked at Rumi. "It's time" He said simply and Rumi's eyes widened.

"You don't mean-" Rumi was cut off as Draco nodded. "But I thought we were gonna wait till he was stronger before we went to him" She said and Draco nodded again.

"Well it seems our good old friend has decided to up the ante on his little army plan" Draco said and Rumi tensed, a bad memory filling her head.

"Can't you take him out yourself?" Akume asked as Rumi remained frozen, until Akume gently shook her. Rumi looked to Akume and gave her a silent thank you as Draco answered.

"I tried, but there's too many for me to tackle alone. Even if I just take out the little groups, by the time we've found another he's found some way to replace the ones lost in the attack" Draco said. Rumi and Akume both nodded as they listened to Draco. Rumi knew firsthand how dangerous the man creating this army of dragon slayers was. Heck, if it wasn't for Akume, she wouldn't have been able to get away with her life.

But now was not the time to bring up bad memories.

"When do we move?" Rumi asked.

"ASAP" Rose's voice came over the lacrima and an image of her head appeared next to Draco's "The sooner he's ready the sooner we can end that madman" She added.

"Have you contacted the other one?" Rumi asked, both looking forward to and dreading meeting the third part of their group.

"Not yet" Draco said. "I tried, but he didn't answer. I'll have to try again after we finish this conversation" He added.

"Well we'll get moving come sunrise" Akume said "We'll meet you as soon as we can find transportation" She added, at the mention of transportation, both Rumi and Draco went green. Rumi nodded meekly, dreading meeting her age old nemesis: Transportation.

"Alright" Draco said "We'll see you then" He said and with that his image faded and the connection ended.

Rumi sighed as she returned the lacrima to the bag and lay down on her sleeping bag "Better get some sleep" Rumi said as she looked over at Akume. "We'll move at sunrise" She added and Akume nodded and Rumi drifted off to sleep, several thoughts drifted across her mind until her eyes closed and she drifted off.

(Meanwhile)

A few towns over a young man was stood outside an old looking mansion, holding a piece of paper in one hand as the other was in his pocket "Exterminate vengeful spirit haunting this residence, reward: 50,000 jewel" He said, rereading the paper. "Tch, they're not paying me enough for this" He said as he walked in.

He was a fairly tall man, standing at a little above average height. He had a medium build with few muscles. He was incredibly well dressed, wearing a dark grey suit jacket with a black shirt underneath and grey trousers on. He had his hands in his pockets as his brown hair blew slightly in the wind around him, showing his brown eyes as he walked through the deserted halls.

"Why do none of these jobs pay enough?" He questioned before stopping, before grinning as a blade of wind shot out to his left, without even moving, he got a scream of pain in response and turned to face the spirit, before sighing. "Oh great, it's not even a tough spirit to kill" He groaned before the spirit charged at him. The man didn't move, just created a wall of Azure blue flames in front of him. "I don't get paid enough for this shit" He said as his flames surged, pushing back the spirit.

The spirit screamed as it was burned by the flames, before several blades of wind fired out and sliced it into pieces. The spirit gave one final scream before it vanished and the flames died down. The man turned and walked away, letting out a long sigh.

"Why are these jobs too easy?" He asked no one in particular as he walked along, his hands still in his pockets.

"Maybe cause your too strong" A voice replied and the man sighed, before turning to the windowsill next to him where a young girl sat, she wasn't very old, about 16/17, she had long black hair tied up in pigtails, revealing her golden eyes that seemed to be almost dragon like. She was dressed in what seemed to be a snakeskin jumpsuit, with the front partially unzipped, showing off a bit of her modest cleavage, however the thing most people notice about her was the two large wings on her back, they were dragon like, very similar to the claws on her hands and feet.

"Maybe. But these jobs are still boring Yoriko" He said as he continued walking, his dragon like companion jumped down off the windowsill and fell into step behind him.

"We need to find something exciting to do, don't we Kai?" Yoriko asked as she gave Kai a smirk.

"Don't even think about it Yoriko" Kai said as he didn't even stop "I'm not doing that again, especially after what happened last time" He added as Yoriko pouted.

"Aww but Kai" She said in a childish voice.

"No" Came Kai's reply

Yoriko continued to pout until she heard a ringing coming from Kai's suit. Reaching into his jacket pocket he pulled out a communication lacrima, answering it. Before seeing Draco's face on the screen.

"Yo" Came Draco's voice as Kai grinned, if Draco was calling, something interesting was bound to happen. "It's about time you answered" Draco added with a slight glare at Kai, who just shrugged. "I was working" Kai said as he gave a small grin, before pulling a small bottle out of his pocket and taking a sip from it.

"Well stop" Draco said, before going serious "It's happening Kai"

Kai almost spat out his drink in surprise as he heard Draco speak "You're sure?" He asked and Draco nodded. "Things are getting worse. It's all hands on deck, even him" Draco said and Kai grinned.

"It's finally time to go train the dumbass isn't it?" He asked with his grin getting larger. He saw Draco nod on the lacrima screen. "Good" Kai said "When we meeting?" He asked a moment later.

"As soon as you can get to him" Draco said "We need him ready ASAP, so we've got to get him into fighting shape before things take a turn for the worse" He explained.

"Have you told Rumi?" Kai asked.

"Yeah, unlike you Rumi actually answers when I contact her" Draco said and Kai just shrugged.

"Yeah yeah I get it. Fine, I'll meet you there. This had better be worth it Draco" Kai said as Draco just grinned.

"It'll be worth it Kai, trust me" Draco said "Just remember what that dragon told us. It is going to be one hell of a journey" Draco added.

"I remember. Anyway, I just gotta go pick up the reward for this job and then we'll head over" Kai said and bid Draco farewell as his image faded.

"Come on then Yoriko" Kai said as he turned to the dragon girl and headed to the open window. "We're going to pick up the money and then meet up the with everyone else" He said and Yoriko beamed before jumping for joy, flapping her large wings as she took off out the window. Kai just shook his head as he floated up, the winds blowing around him as he flew after Yoriko.

This kid had better be worth all the trouble He thought Oh well, at least it'll be entertaining. And maybe Yoriko can make a few more friends He thought as he watched Yoriko as she did several maneuvers in mid air before beaming at him.

"Come on Kai!" She called and Kai picked up speed and caught up with Yoriko.

Yeah, this kid'll be worth it He thought

Meanwhile, in the town of Magnolia, a young man with salmon hair, black onyx eyes and wearing a scaly scarf sneezed for the third time that day. Before looking towards the door of the guildhall he was sat in, wondering just who the hell was talking about him.
