A raging inferno is coming. The blazing flare of the flames rising to the sky in a symphony of cries and colors, a beautiful star of the abyssal despair and eternal glory shining across the cosmos. Shrouded in the evils of the world, a soul will be saved or broken by the choices to be made. We all think that the Phoenix Riders are evil, right? That they're blood-thirsty monsters, those who only bring corrupted judgement upon the innocent. That they all have blood on their hands, and they can't just justify for the screaming souls who had been mercilessly slaughtered. And that they all have horrible backstories, of which you people need to feel pity for. Phoenix Riders aren't like that. Not all of them kill. They don't crave for war. They don't all have heart-wrenching backstories that you need to feel pity on. They're all just normal people trying to protect their own, they aren't the villains people make them out to be. However, it doesn't mean that life will make it any easier for them. Especially if your name happened to be Ash Akarane. So what do you do when life decides to deal you a bad hand? It's simple. You fight with everything you got with your friends right by your side. ~*~ Hi guys! I just REALLY inspired by a book I read (even though it's not completed) here on Wattpad, so I decided to create a fanfic of it. This is my first real story so please read. I've only made short stories and one-shots, so . . . yeah. Enjoy! Oh,and one last thing. This story is a fanfic based off of Skyborn by maithecutiepie, so go and check it out!
