Please describe your question with a bit more... words. Remember that we can't (sadly... or not sadly, its a matter of prespective) read your mind.

1. Create a dummy unit (with the Locust ability and your Fire Bolt ability) and order him to cast it on the target, so the hero casts one and the dummy one.

2.
  • Set Point = (Position of (Triggering unit))
  • Custom script: set bj_wantDestroyGroup = true
  • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units within 512.00 of Point) and do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • Unit - Kill (Picked unit)
  • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Point)

3. Use the Attachment Points blizzard nicely gave us in the Object Manager.

4. Didn't really get what you want.

That is called a Custom Script (its the third action) and is a one-line action from JASS.

That certain script is to remove a Unit Group leak.
If you don't know about leaks and how to remove them, look at the "Things That Leak" sticky (it doesn't really explain what are leaks thoguh).

How do i make this fire bolt with 2 bolts :S

I already answerd to that. If you don't know what are dummy units or the Locust ability, I suggest you to read some tutorials on making spells.

Couldn't really find any tutorial about this topics :/

Anyway, a dummy is a unit that is usually created via a spell, does something, and then gets removed.
You will most likely like to give dummy units the 'Locust' ability which makes it Unselectable and Invulnerable. You would also probably like to change its model path to ".mdl" which will make it invisible, and remove its shadow.

Now give a dummy your Fire Bolt, and create something like this

  • Untitled Trigger 002
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
    • Conditions
      • (Ability being cast) Equal to Firebolt (Neutral Hostile)
      • ((Triggering unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
    • Actions
      • Set Point = (Position of (Triggering unit))
      • Unit - Create 1 dummy for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at Point facing Default building facing degrees
      • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Point)
      • Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Neutral - Firebolt (Target unit of ability being cast)
      • Unit - Add a 1.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)

Notice ! you must add the second condition or it will create a infinite loop untill the target will die.

Sorry I was just too much bored and ... well dont have a 2nd reason

To yobare: open trigger editor and add some triggers, test map, change them, test map etc...
Spells usually work with
Unit - Generic Unit Event (and select Unit Starts Effect of Ability in the green link) Event

may be someday you can become uberpro like me... No you cant
