A large silhouette could been seen pacing around the cave. Nothing much could be made out of it except that it had glowing red eyes and a huge frame. 

The massive cave had torches burning a blue flame mounted on the wall while the middle of the cave had stone dishes on pedestals, the same blue flame burning within them, giving the cave a spooky and mysterious ambience. 

{What is taking him so long?} The silhouette spoke in a deep feminine voice which clearly contained irritation.

{Patience, my dear old friend. This is why you are unable to find a significant other despite living for so long.} A smooth voice filled with mockery could be heard from the other side of the cave.

The silhouette took a step forward, causing the entire cave to shake in the process. It roared: {Do you have a death wish?! Because I am willing to grant it!}

Stepping near a pedestal, it's figure could now be seen in its entirety. Over 50m tall, with a 15m long neck, it fits the very image of a western dragon. It was a crimson-coloured, muscular looking dragon, with four legs and a pair of large wings. It spreaded its maroon-coloured wings wide open, not only as an act of intimidation but also as a method of attacking as tons of colourful magic circles appeared all over them, targeting in the direction of the voice taunting her.

{Are you really capable of granting it?} The owner of the smooth voice also drew closer, revealing a snake like figure. It was what one would describe as an eastern dragon, a long green-coloured body with four short legs. This might make it look weak from far away, but up close, you could see that its short arms were in fact over 15 m in length, with its body measuring 120 m long. The air around it began picking up speed and spun around the eastern dragon, quickly forming a tornado. Its yellow eyes also glowed brighter and brighter while the orb in front of its mouth began releasing electricity. {Because I doubt that you are capable enough to take me out!}

The red dragon did not respond, not because of the fact that it did not fall for the eastern dragon's provocation, but due to the fact that it's mouth was already full of flames. Flames threatened to spill from it's sealed mouth, it's eyes glowing brighter and brighter too to match the intensity of the eastern dragon's eyes. Just as they were about to lunge at each other, a melodic voice could be heard calling out to them.

{Typhon, Magmius, please don't fight in my house, or else I will collapse the cave and send millions of tons of water cascading on all of you. }

{Geez, relax Diva}

{You boast the second highest defensive magic among us ancient dragons, your house won't be destroyed that easily.}

Both dragons looked at the owner of the cave, a majestic blue seahorse-looking dragon that was over 55m tall, with wings that resemble those of a betta fish's fins. It had an unamused expression. The cave was located thousands of metres underwater and they had no choice but to listen to territory's owner. 

Diva sighed. This would happen everytime they met. They would insult each other, fight, and then praise each other on their fighting techniques at the end. She, whose name was Diva, is disgusted even by their narcissism.

Just then, a mountain grew out of the ground. When it rose to it's full size, it began crumbling down, revealing a dirt brown figure inside. The figure that was over 60m tall lumbered out of the mess it created, which slowly sunk back into the ground leaving no traces of the mountain. Unlike the rest of the dragons, it had no wings, recompensated by the fact that it boast the highest defense among them with its bedrock armour located at vital areas. Moss could be seen hanging from it's spikes and limbs.

{Looks like everybody is already here.}  A booming voice resounded from it's mouth.

Diva angrily replied: {How can we not be here, Vulcan? You sure caused us a lot of trouble in the past few days.}

Typhon, on the other hand, was much calmer: {What led you to send Wyverns all over the continent?}

Vulcan took a deep breath before answering: {I received a prophecy to hunt down a certain creature.}

Magmius scoffed: {And why didn't the rest of us receive such a prophecy?}

Vulcan: {I do not know why only I received the prophecy, but I know the voice of an angel when I hear one, are you doubting me?}

Magmius hastily replied: {Of course not, but isn't sending Wyverns all over the continent an over reaction? The humans are now on high alert against us.}

Vulcan: {I do not know if I have the right to tell all of you this, but the prophecy said that the creature was a threat to Heaven. }

Magmius and Typhon began whispering among themselves while Diva asked: {A mortal creature threatening Heaven?}

Vulcan: {I do not know what creature it is, but I did find some candidates.}

Using it's earth magic, it began forming models on the ground. A model resembling a porcupine soon appeared.

Vulcan: {First of all, a bladed porcupine. This Rank D beast displays an unusually high growth speed and even managed to take down a Rank B Wyvern after a prolonged fight. It has higher intelligence than normal as it managed to take down the Wyvern with trickery. However, I do not believe that it can go against multiple Wyverns.}

The figure of the porcupine melted, replaced with the figure of a human with a sword.

{Second of all is this human. I did not send a Wyvern after it as it would be a declaration of war, but I used an observer dragon to study its actions. It's skills with the sword is one of the most refined I have ever seen despite living for such a long time, and it still seems to be improving. I believe the humans call it a Hero. }

The humanoid figure melted into the ground, replaced with a weird shape. Seeing the rest of the Ancient Dragons looking curiously at the figure, it began explaining.

Vulcan: {Last but not least is this... thing... Don't let it's strange appearance fool you, this creature is capable of flight and took down 3 of my Wyverns. My observer dragon arrived only after the first Wyvern has died, but it was able to see a Wyvern get taken down in an instant with some sort of ranged attack. It then tried to take out the other Wyvern with some other attack but kept missing before shooting it down with the first attack. It then shot the corpse of the Wyvern, blowing it up to smithereens, it is clearly not sane. The observer dragon then proceeded to find out where the missed attacks landed, only to find that the entire area was decimated.}

Typhon: {I have some stealthy dragons capable of flight, do you need them?}

Vulcan was about to respond when a golden light appeared, illuminating the entire cave. The dragons turned towards the light and knelt down. The light died down, revealing a figure with feathery wings and an out-of-this-world beauty. It was an angel, one of God's envoys. 

Vulcan asked respectfully with it's head still lowered: {How may I assist you?}

The angel sheepishly replied: [Do you remember the prophecy to kill every bladed creature? Well yeah, don't do that, especially to the helicopter. Sorry for the inconvenience caused. We will make it up to you.]

The angel bowed and dissappeared with a flash of golden light.

Everyone remained silent, processing what just happened. Finally, Magmius broke the silence: {Did an angel really descend just to say that?}

Typhon: {She said something about a helicopter? Does she mean this weird thing?}

Typhon indicated towards the model. Vulcan thought to himself before saying: {Since that is the only creature I do not know the name of, I suppose so.}

Everyone was once again silent before mist suddenly bursting forth from the Water Dragon Diva, leaving behind an energetic looking 20 years old female human. She had light blue hair and a darker blue dress. She posed cutely. 

{Well, my fans are waiting for me, gotta go for my performance! Bye!} Diva excused herself in an energetic voice and dissappeared into the mist.

Vulcan sighed. Diva, who used to be the most graceful among them, was now reduced to an idol that acts cute unlike her age. She even changed her name to fit her new hobby.

Vulcan declared: {Meeting adjourned!}

The dragons teleported away, and the torches began extinguishing on their own, leaving behind an empty dark cave.
