Title: The Peace of the World

_________________________

All this time, I didn't believe in miracles. Though I have often seen and heard many facts about miracles. But I never believed in that. Until the end, there was something that made me believe in miracles.

“Dhira! You have to continue the struggle of Father.only you have inherited that blood flow! You must save our world!” reveal Daddy. At that time, the world that I had occupied was already greatly destroyed. Not much can change this situation. I don't know since when our world was filled with disgusting monsters in the form of giant dragons. They enslave all the humans in the world. There are many lives lost in this world. And that said, all that could exterminate the dragon monster was the Sword of Fire.

“But, Dad.... Why Me? I'm a woman and I'm not sure I can do it!” reject me.

“Honey... Only you can. Don't you see that many have lost their lives? Even innocent children are victims. Again, I beg you.. Today is our last day to save the World!” said Father again.

My heart began to melt with the words of my father. Actually, I can't bear to see much bloodshed. Especially when my mother and brother were killed by those bad dragons.

Slowly, my tears rolled down my cheeks. I resolved my heart to save the World, to exterminate those ugly and disgusting dragons, monsters that had diminished my completeness.

“Good, Dad. I promise, I will save this World!” my resolve. I saw Father smile on his face, I returned that smile with a very sweet and sincere.

At that moment, my father and I went to a place no one had ever entered. There, a sword was seen emitting a burning hot flame. Everyone could not take the sword, because it was enveloped in an eternal flame that never went out. My hand took the sword, I felt no heat even though the eternal flame continued to radiate, spitting out a burning heat.

Again, I smiled and looked at me. Believe me, that's what I got from Dad's look. My little feet I set to step, my hands held the sword, my heart determined to save the world. The one I will face is the hundreds of bad dragons that have corrupted the World.

“Good Dad, I'll try!” my word. My spirit is getting stronger. The sword that had been in my hand continued to emit red rays of fire.

I kept running, leaving Dad. Seeking the dragon king and killing him.

It's been almost 5 days I've been running, no one's tired I think. Maybe it's a miracle. At that time, the miracle of sadh I could not doubt. Until finally, I saw the world as hell. The dragon king was clearly visible before my eyes. Other than that bad dragon that I saw, a lot of humans are suffering from that bad dragon. All the humans there were enslaved by him, many were tortured by him. My eyes could no longer bear to see all that suffering, it felt like the fire in my heart had started to burn. No more fear in this heart, that miracle, has added strength to my heart.

This Flame Sword, was seen starting to emit a lot of fire towards that bad dragon king. However, all I saw was a sly smile from the wide mouth of the dragon that I hated so much.

“Ha... ha.. ha.... what are you doing little boy?!” the dragon opened its wide mouth, its eyes looking so creepy, yet it could not scare me.

“What? What the hell am I doing? Just look at it later! I'll exterminate you ugly dragon!” myrag. The light of my eyes seemed to emit a fire of spirit that continued to strengthen me.

I closed my eyes, sure that a miracle was coming. Throw my sword out at the ugly dragon, I strengthen my heart and there is the sound of a terrible explosion. Shortly after the explosion, I still did not open my eyes. I felt my body feel the heat of a very painful fire. Yet it was only for a moment, the fire was suddenly extinguished and turned into a peaceful cool breeze.

Slowly opening my eyelids, I saw the world was back now. The cold wind restored calm in the world. Although the lost life could not return, I saw many smiles and hugs in front of my eyes. Everything becomes peaceful. After a long time I witnessed the return of peace to this world, I remembered Father. I ran as hard as I could, to get close to Father who had strengthened my resolve.

“Dad!!” I shouted loudly when I saw my father's body lying lifelessly weak.

“Dad... wake up Well! I've made it, Dad! The dragons are gone now! Dad, wake!!!” shouting loudly. I can't hold back my tears. The tears kept flowing, soaking my cheeks. Enough, I lost someone I loved. But please, don't take the peace of this world again! I'm ingrained. Slowly, I wiped my tears. I realized that nothing is eternal in this world. I also let my father, family and friends go. Now, I promise, I will continue to keep this world peaceful.
