{ Lukas' Journal }

    My name, is Lukas Samuel Valentine. I am the general and head of army of my district, the Queen's District, the largest and most powerful of the four districts. Along with the Daniel District, Xion (Ze-On) District, and the Fiona District. What makes my district so powerful? Not only is it the district at which her majesty, Queen Penelope lives, but it also has the highest amount of known surviving humans.

    You see, a couple of centuries ago, a great war began between the two kingdoms, the humans and the shape shifters. And as time went on, those damn shape shifters had made it their goal to do a little "extermination". That's right. They began to think of humans as pest. Just little roaches that needed to be squished. 

    It wasn't always this way, though....

    Hundreds of years ago, the humans used to worship and treat the shape shifters as gods. They were our protectors. Our saviors. If it wasn't for that damn rebel, Hunter Jackson, we wouldn't be in this mess. He was the one who started all this. The one who believed that humans were equal to our so called "gods". Sure, maybe mentally....But physically....We didn't stand a chance. We were going up against fire breathing Dragons and fearless, daredevil Griffins with bows and arrows! Sure, that was back then, and we have guns and tanks now, but that still doesn't make a difference. A single shape shifter could take down an entire army in his or her true form. Even the weakest clans were able to do a great amount damage!

    I sighed, placing my journal down on my bedsheets and stepping out of bed when I heard a knock at my front door. It was nearly three in the morning. Who could possibly want to see me this late at night?

    The wooden floors creaked as I made my way over to my large, iron front door. To my surprise, when I opened it, their was a messenger, straight from her Majesty's castle.

    "A-A message from the Queen, General Valentine....I....I'm terribly sorry!" The small man stuttered, shoving the envelope with the Royal seal in my hand before quickly running off into the distance.

    Weird....

    Sighing, I went and sat down on my rather firm sofa, breaking the seal on the envelope to see what the big deal was about.

    My eyes widened as I began reading.....

Dear General Valentine,

It has come to my attention that a nearby shape shifting clan, the Doragons, have made some advancements on the western front, near the Xion and Daniel districts. This worries me horribly, as those districts are still rebuilding and collecting themselves from the last clan attack....I will need you to send an army at once to try and hold back the enemy, and I want you to be the one to lead them into battle.

                                My deepest apologies,

                                         Queen Penelope

    "Great, just great. This is exactly what I needed. A death sentence," I mumbled to myself, running a shaking hand though my dark blue hair as I continued to stare at the letter before me.

    Why me? I don't want to die. I don't want to be the one to lead hundreds of young men and women to their deaths....

    But it had to be done....

    Or the Queen would have my head....
