Here is Armageddon and his story...
Millions of years ago a dragon was born from the molten lava of the largest volcano in the world, now known to be called Mauna Loa. During the time of the dinosaurs, all land masses on planet Earth were as one solid piece where dinosaurs of every size and shape roamed. There were no dragons like Armageddon. He was the only dragon to ever have been created, but he was born for only one purpose: to end the world.
However, he had a very large heart and feared what he would have to do. On one moonless night, strange fire balls began to rain down from the sky and Armageddon knew it was time. Earth was in the middle of the largest asteroid belt in history. He lept up through the top of the volcano, flying for the first time, knowing how incredibly powerful he really was. Mauna Loa began to erupt violently, shooting enormous chunks of fiery rocks for miles as the thick magma rolled down the sides to the valley floor where unsuspecting creatures lay for the night.
Even the earth began to tremble and shake, as if it feared what was soon to come. As the ground split open, the ocean surged forward, ripped at trees and rocks, and churned debris and dinosaurs trapped in the perilous waters. Armageddon shot across the sky in a flash of fire, barely able to control himself as asteroids rained down around him.
Armageddon looked down at the destruction he wrought, dinosaurs, animals, humans breathing their last breaths. He was mortified by what he had done to so many lives. With a sorrowful cry, he turned and dove towards the volcano. There was still time to set things right. Fanning the lava with his wings, Armageddon was able to stop the molten rock from racing down the mountain any more. He then flew up and up, as high as he could go, then dove straight down into the opening of the volcano. He braced himself on the inner wall of Mauna Loa as the Earth shook and shivered and groaned. "STOP!" He cried, "Hear me mother please stop shaking, I have control of myself and I refuse to end this world now." After a while the Earth quieted down and within a day, the world was completely still.
Everything was different. No longer did the Earth's crust stand as one land mass. Families were split apart in different regions of the world. Vast expanses of water separated the continents.
Armageddon was not able to save the dinosaurs, as their food sources all disappeared when the lava devoured the land, however humans were able to feast on the dead animals cooked alive by fires that stretched along the landscape.
Arnageddon knew he could not escape his fate forever, some day he would have to end the world eventually, but for the time being, he was able to rejoice for saving the world.
The time is getting close and Armageddon knows it. Man kind cannot survive much longer, they're destroying Earth. He's gearing up for the death and destruction he will cause once more as he sits and waits inside Mauna Loa, the tallest and largest Volcano on Earth.
