Pengu And The Dragon Of Fire

============------

In the events that followed the death of Healer, everything changed. The Dragons and everyone else have all felt it, and it was a felted presence no one ever wanted to feel. The sudden deathly presence itself showed how much Healer was a ancient figure loved and devoted by millions in Kumandra, and without the Healer, which sadly and tragically happened now, Kumandra's Empire won't be the same ever again.

In the aftermath of Healer's death, the Datu's, Dragons and the Heart City's citizens are gripped in a state of grief, sadness and anger. Unrest was intensifying and the fears of War from the far past would begin to loom across everyone's affected souls. Pengu was not the same loving Dragon brother everyone else saw, becoming from a family protector and the golden hearted guardian of his family and others to a pure grief consumed and enraged Dragon with a face showing nothing but anger in his blue eyes. Healer was everything to Pengu, and everyone else in Kumandra. He was the living epitome of ancient and golden wisdom, especially a parental figure that guided his home world to a path worthy of their namesake. And with the most wisest and powerful Dragon ascended from existence, The Datu's, especially for the heartbroken Pengu himself, are left in unawareness of what they must do next.

Witnessing the Healer's body being taken away to the sacred Dragon graveyard to be prepared for the commemoration ceremony, Pengu couldn't take it any longer and ran off alone without his loved ones noticing. He went back home, anguished and defeated and starts smashing things around in a fit of animalistic despair. But things ceased down a little bit and the broken green Dragon sits down, trying to regain inner peace for a while before he finds something interesting on the ruined debris of furniture. He grabs a piece of a ancient mural painting and found a historic picture dating back beyond 5 centuries ago. The mural painting piece showed one of Kumandra's greatest and bloodiest events ever, ''The Great Dragon War'', a brutal war between Fire Dragons and the Water Dragons, a decade or more prior to the Druun Outbreak caused by Braco's darkest desire to conquer Kumandra. Pengu examined it deeply and tried to mindfully animate some clues before he finally finds something astounding. Noticing an armored Water Dragon fighting the devilish Dragon Braco himself, Pengu eventually came up with an idea after saying the name.

''Pengu: ... Rohuengan... He's still alive?''

Pengu's anger faded away slightly, realizing that Rohuengan is still alive and well after all the odd centuries living to his healed scars. He didn't think about the Dragon Rohuengan more clearly and deeply, and instead went ahead outside to find that Dragon he found on the ancient painting, which he took with him. Upon going outside, Pengu was greeted by his loved ones, The Datu's who came by to assure some comfort.

''Pengu: Brothers and sisters?''

''Sisu: You were gone the time our ba-in-law is taken away, so we thought we needed to make sure where you went and... make sure you get some strong family comfort you need.''

''Pengu: ... I'm okay alright, i just needed some time to take a brethren.''

''Datu's: (embrace Pengu)''

''Sisu: It was too soon to realize it, and it's hard to not stop the inevitable. But in the end brother... his legacy lives in every one of our hearts, and it powers us.''

''Pengu: I know... and that's why i found this- (shows the ancient painting)''

''Jagan: ... An ancient mural?''

''Sisu, Amba: Wow.''

''Daisy: By the looks of it, it seems to be left out for quite some time.''

''Huan: Yeah... I think i see two Dragons fighting and... well, a lot of war i guess. Where on tenacious earth did you find it?''

''Pengu: ... Not important for now. But my biggest importance is that this armored Dragon in the painting is the one i am destined to search. His name is Rohuengan, the Dragon with a strength level of a hundred Dragons, the War Warrior and the wielder of his great Sword of triumph.''

''Datu's: Rohuengan?'' They all call out, in confusion and amazement.

''Pengu: Hold on, it gets better from here. Rohuengan is Healer's closest friend, and used to work with him like true brothers until he disappeared from Kumandra's eyes through unknown circumstances, all after the Great Dragon War ended.''

''Sisu: Amazing, i guess. The biggest question now is... where could he be residing?''

''Pengu: Well to find Rohuengan, we must track his sent and track. Does any one of you have a great nose?''

''Jagan: (shoots paw up) I have. (delighted smile)''

''Pengu: You do? Then you're going to lead us.''

''Jagan: Really? Well aye-aye brother!''

Jagan went down on all fours and went like a sniffing dog trying to find it's favorite chewing toys. While the rest grin, trying not to laugh, Jagan's tail goes up and picked up a very strange sent, and let's Pengu know what he's been searching.

''Jagan: I think... i think i tracked a very unusual yet powerful smell, leading straight forward right- (points up) over there!''

Thanks to Jagan's right way smelling and tracking, Pengu and his team were able to march to the area where Rohuengan is supposed to live far away from the reaches of the populated areas and from Dragons. However, it is only that time when Team Kumandra would eventually get to see the true state of Rohuengan once they reach his hiding location.

After some little travels, Team Kumandra stopped their move when they came across a very large Dragon Temple-like nest in the middle of a hilly grass land built in trees and other earthly sources. Pengu foresees that this is the right place he was looking for, but still has no idea how things will turn out. He orders his family to stay outside while he ventures inside the large house. The Datu's wait steadily outside right behind the doorstep and are left wondered if this is really going to work, since they obviously forgot some pieces of their memory about the Dragon Rohuengan. Inside however, Pengu sneaks inside the house into the center room, and discovers many otherworldly weapons and tools the Rohuengan used during the Great War. The insane weapons in Pengu's eyes are unlike anything he's ever seen, something far advanced then any other weapon in the world. As he locks his mind back to his initial purpose, he wanted to bypass a hallway leading up to the stairs, before out of nowhere from the shadowy corridor came a razor-sharp curvy sword landing right on his maned neck. Pengu instantly froze, his eyes widened either in fear or spook as the long sword echoes a soft metallic noise. He slowly looked to the right and his shock skyrocketed who else emerged from the shadowy corridor. A large green Dragon, ancient, bearded and looking like ready to deliver a slicing blow with his iconic sword. Pengu backed off in slow solidarity while Rohuengan makes his appearance, holding tight his sword aiming at the young Dragon's neck.

''Pengu: (softly shocked) ... I- i just want to talk...''

''Rohuengan: (stares angrily) ... Who told you to come here alone?''

''Pengu: ... myself, and for an obvious reason because of what tragedy that happened last day.''

''Rohuengan: (goes silent) - (moves his sword away) - (drops the sword) Get out. (walks away)''

''Pengu: What? That's all you gonna say? I did not came here for nothing alright.''

''Rohuengan: I won't help you... and i know what happened that very tragic day i won't even speak out. Now get lost before i'll change my mind.''

Rohuengan looked horrible from the inside, deeply inside his spirit. In the terrible mindful flashbacks he's imprisoned by the memories from the Great Dragon War, he was stuck in a state anger and anguish. Whatever wounds, scars and pain he endured must have sent Rohuengan to live in isolation, away from Kumandra's views, to escape that very bloody past in hopes to live as a peaceful man alone. Yet it's clear inside his broken face he's haunted by the past Great War almost permanently, which further more rots his ancient spirit to the core. Pengu felt Rohuengan's pain like never before, maybe more or less worse then Healer's death. The spirited warrior continuously ignores Pengu by sharpening and upgrading his sword, but Pengu isn't giving up his hopes very easily.

''Pengu: I know what it feels like to be tormented by the War you fought from. I know what it feels like to feel your spirit decline inch by inch for centuries. But when you find the time, and trust into the absence of hope, you will come together again... and be the spirited warrior everyone knows and loves of you.''

''Rohuengan: ... Hope? Hope is for the weaklings. And me being a ''spirited warrior'' is too much for me to come back for it.''

''Pengu: And that's why hope exists. it is what we fight for when all else is-.''

''Rohuengan: I'm retired alright... (sighs) It should be more then enough... but it's enough in all means.''

''Pengu: Rohu, please, you have to-''

''Rohuengan: Have you ever felt... pain before?... it's pretty bad. (continues sharpening his sword)''

''Pengu: ... Without your help, and without joining my destiny, and if Braco succeeds, then all prosperous Kingdoms save Kumandra will fall. ... And everything will decent to darkness until no life is left.''

''Rohuengan: Yeah... Braco must die. ... But i am not going to sacrifice an inch more of my life any more then you would to your loved ones. I'm sorry.''

After many failed amends to bring Rohuengan back to his true self, Pengu was left behind once again, and sadly leaves with the absence of hopelessness following him around. But as Pengu left the room, alone by himself, Rohuengan with a broken face keeps on going to sharpen his sword before briefly looking left to see something. He slowly grabbed it with his big paws and holds a dust covered picture, and finally elaborates his emotions. He stared at the picture of his wife Gurasaku, the divine Dragon teacher he loved more then anyone else in the world. The Spirited Warrior closes his eyes, placing the picture of his true love onto his chest and remembers anything hopeful he could. And finally, with tears running down his eyes, he found it.

Outside, the saddened Pengu walks off and tells his loved ones that's done with a very angry tone, leaving everyone present shook up and hopeless. But before Pengu could take a step to his give ups, he heard a faint beautiful voice right behind him, and froze. ''Rohuengan: Done?... You thought so?'' Pengu and the others turn around and stare in awe as Rohuengan comes outside, taking his pathway to hope for the first time after centuries of living in loneliness and isolation. Emotions run high, and smiles are made when Rohuengan approached the Datu's to join their destiny to stop a Kumandra-ending threat once and for good.

''Rohuengan: I've suffered enough, young ones. And I'll be willing enough to stop whatever threat is coming, but under one condition alone... (shows the picture of his wife Gurasaku) I do not want her involved at all... And if that's the cost of this destiny, then i'll fight only once.''

''Pengu: You have our wish, general. (smiles)''

''Sisu: ... Braco isn't the only central threat out there, you know that right. Are you sure this is going to work?''

''Rohuengan: ... What do i got to live for? (smiles for the first time) - (walks forwards) I'll meet you at the Heart City.''

Rohuengan wields the weapon above him, charging his sword with his overpowering mighty energy and glows before shooting into the sky flying to the Heart City. Now having the Spirited Warrior in their team, Pengu and the Legendary Datu's run back to the Heart City to prepare for the ultimate mission ahead of them.
