Hello all this is my first fic that I am posting set in the monster rancher world.
Arthors note:  The monsters in these stories belong to Tecmo and are in no way mine.
The main character Kazal is mine.  So are the following Knight clans: Dracos,  Wolfe and
Serpentos.  These stories have very little to do with the MONSTER RANCHER TV
show.  Other than the evil King Moo and maybe Holly and Suezo.  So I said my little legal
mumbo jumbo.  So on with the show.



The Warlord Chronicles
Prologue
by Kazal Dracos
    A small child waits on top of a hill his only companion is a wood knight.
The child stands there holding a bag.  The Wood knight  places his hand on the
boy�s shoulder to comfort him.  The pair waited until sunset before pitching their
tent.

    � My boy I fear your Grandfather will not come�,  The Wood Knight spoke
in a low tone as he handed the boy a plate of food.  The boy took the food and
started to eat.  The boy finished his food and gave the plate back to the Wood
Knight wanting more.

    �My Grandfather is a great warlord and will never be defeated by any
other warlord.�, The boy muttered under his breath.  The Wood Knight  shook his
head as the boy got a short sword from his bag.  The wood Knight picked up his
sword and stood up.  �Let�s train for a while at least until my Grandfather
arrives.�

    The pair started swinging their swords.  Thrusting and parrying, avoiding
each fatal blow by mere inches. An hour after the pair started a man dressed in
armor walked up to their camp site.   As the man sat down next to the camp fire
blood could be seen on his armor and face.  The pair stopped training and sat
next to the man.

    �Grandfather, are you all right?�,  The boy asked as he helped remove the
man�s armor.  The Wood Knight stood quiet as the boy started to tend to the
wounds of the man.  The man waved the boy away as he took out a medallion
with a dragon on the front.  The old man placed the medallion in the boy�s hands
as he looked into is eyes.

    �I am not long for this world Kazal,  take my medallion to show that you
are the new Dragonlord�,  the old man spit out some blood as he turned to the
Wood Knight.  �Take care of my grandson Wood Knight I fear that The Evil King
Moo may try to use him to conquer the world.�

    A heavy thud could be heard as a horse with a heavily armored man
could be seen.  The man was escorted by a group of five Hound Knights.  The
man on the horse laughed as the old man stood up and drew his sword again.

    �By the Sacred Dragon you shall never destroy the Dracos Clan,  You flea
bitten mongrel of the Wolfe clan�,  The old man shouted as he charged the
knight on horse back.  �NOW DIE YOU MONSTER!�

    �Foolish old man�, The Knight on horse back said as he dismounted and
drew his sword.   �BLACK WOLF RAGE�

    The unholy black bolt cut the old man�s sword arm off.  The Wolf Knight
stood there looking at the old man and then to Kazal and the Wood knight.  He
raised his sword again to attack the old man.  As his blade found it�s way to the
sky as Kazal tossed his short sword at the Wolf Knight.  His aim was true and hit
the Knight in the heart  killing him.  The five Hound Knights ran to find the Wolf
Clan Lord.   The old man looked back to see his grandson weeping.

    �Kazal run,  You only stopped a minor knight the warlord will be here any
second I will stay and fight you are our last born and the last hope for our clan
you must live to fight against Moo.�  With this the old man pick up his sword from
the lost arm and prepared to face the deadliest threat he could only to save his
grandchild.  Turning to look at his grandson one more time he looked to the
Wood Knight and let out one last scream,  one last word that Kazal would always
remember.  Survive.

    The pair ran for what seemed to be hours or maybe even days trying to
reach a safe place before finding a small village.  The Wood Knight held Kazal
close as the young boy wept for his grandfather�s death.  Soon word would be
out that the Dragonlord had been defeated and the Troops of Moo would want to
find Kazal before his true powers were unleashed.
