Chapter 1 - Chapter 1: Where it all began

23 years ago, before Alex Draken was born.

"Leave me alone Tez", a boy cried out as a group of boys were hanging up on him and beating him up.

"Oh yeah. What are going to do about it Ragnar", Tez said in a mocking voice while punching Ragnar.

The group of boys were beating Ragnar up behind one of the village houses where no one was watching apart from a group of girls.

The girls laughed and mocked Ragnar while bled out and cried.

"Somebody help me!!", Ragnar yelled as he punched Ragnar on is mouth. "Hey loser( grabs him by the hair and lifts his head up) who gave you permission to cry for help?", Tez asked as he punched him three times on his face, breaking his noise.

Just Tez was about to punch him again a voice called out," Tez! Let go of my brother", Tez looked at who was calling out at him," Oh, Alex it's you", Tez said as he threw Ragnar to the ground.

Alex walked up to Tez, looked at him and went straight to his brother. Tez grabbed his right arm, stopping him.

"Can't let you do that. This young lady said your brother touched her without her consent. As the son of the chief it's my duty to punish my misbehaving family members", Tez said with a smirk on his face.

Alex looked at Tez with a death stare as he shrugged off Tez's hand and went to his brother.

Alex piggy backed his brother and walked past Tez. Tez gritted his teeth in anger as the group of girls started laughing at him.

"You little.....(snaps his fingers at Alex and a burst of flame shot from them)", Alex immediately dodged the streak of flames as a mini explosion happened.

Taking advantage of the smoke, Alex jumped onto the nearby building and jumped from building to building with incredible speed.

Tez followed behind as he propelled himself and flew with flames on his feet. He caught up to Alex and tackled him to the ground.

The three fell right in front of the village training grounds where, the chief was having a meeting with the vice captain of the royal guards of the Draken kingdom.

Alex imideatley stood up as Tez launched his flaming fist at him, eyes glowing bright orange with rage.

Alex managed to deflect his attack and push him back. Tez, filled with range was about to get serious until he heard a voice scolding him.

"Tez Bravewing, that's enough", Tez looked to see that it was the chief, his father who had said this.

"Yes Father", Tez responded as he glared at Alex and left. Alex got up and took his brother and ran into the Chief's homestead.

He rushed into one of the smaller buildings and put his brother on the bed in one of the rooms.

"Mother! Ragnar's hurt again", Alex called out as he took some cloth and water, then started cleaning Ragnar's wounds.

A woman rushed into the room and joined in. "What happen my son", The woman asked Alex.

"It was Tez again", Alex responded . His mother scoffed in annoyance. "Well great. I should go now", His mother said as she got up and left the room.

Alex was left looking at his brother and his mangled, bleeding and bruised face. He gritted his teeth in anger," Tez.... one day I will kill you with my bare hands", Alex proclaimed as he continued cleaning his brother's wounds.
