Anyway this chapter hmm well fillerish and its crap that's all I gonna say Oo
Call of the Dragon Chapter 5
‘Dragon, come quickly.’ A voice whispers. Daring not to disobey, I slowly pad away to the source of the sweet sound. He Mightyena that were just here had made me panic stricken and I’m still worried about where Sapphire is. Thinking about her, I quicken my pace to find where the voice’s source came from.
I never expected the sight that fell before my eyes.
‘Don’t worry Dragon, you are safe here, at least for now you are.’ There stood a slightly larger female Arcanine. Her fur blessed with snow’s purity and creamy fur stirred with a pale white chocolate. Her stripes appear forged of the darkest chestnut while her eyes purer than even a Gyarados’ blue. With grace matched by now other creature, she leaps with a roll into a ball like a Sandshrew in mid air and lands before me with a smile.
‘I am the Guardian of he West of the worlds here. To those who know me my name is Snow Fire. I have seen many destinies unravel since eternity began and will forever do so.’
‘The Guardian? I thought they were no more than a legend of the past.’ She steps back and puts a clawed paw to the ground.
‘To this modern day we seem nothing more than fairy tales as we do to you. However we are all very real. The Northern Guardian who protects the skies and its lighting is the blue Dragonite. Her name I believe is Storm Wing.’ Carefully she marks out a crude image of a Dragonite closest to herself.
‘The Guardian of the south and of the fires that fuel life would by a Blazenix** He is a hatchling of the late Larka* many a year ago when the other Dragon still roamed this world.’ She marks an image looking like a more dangerous Articuno before me. I wait till see is finished before I speak.
‘You knew of Larka?’ She nods.
‘Yes she was one of the greatest Articuno hat ever stood upon this plain. She even knew of the great dragon Trainer who died a long time ago. This trainer, she had a being just like yourself though you seem so very different from him. He was part of a prophecy long written for another world and a powerful warrior in his own right. Just like her he thought to the end.’ Confused about the thought of another like myself ever to exist, I begin to think back, trying to remember something though I find nothing more that the times of this day swarming the earlier thoughts.
‘Maybe if she still lived, she’d have been able to stop this from happening but considering she was partly human, she did live a long life as did her Dragon.’ I nod not really grasping what she means and look back to the drawing she had laid upon the ground’s barren surface.
‘In the east is a moss ridden Blastoise and the eldest of the four of us. He is wise and still in his time and always learning. He cares for the land, the plants and in a way the creatures that thrive on them. It has been many a year since I have last seen him.’ To her right appears another image drawn by her claw in the shape of a slightly crushed Blastoise.
‘Then of course there is me here in the west. My area is of hat of waters and that close to it. Here my power can protect all Arcanine and their young ones for lifetimes if need be. However for a few days as well my power can guard pure hearted souls. This is why the Mightyena never saw you, they are blinded by the darkness within their hearts and because you were protected you were invisible to their eyes. This won’t hold though since the veil is only built to protect my own kind and no other.’ She sighs gently sweeping away the sketches with her paw.
‘You must be weary from your journey, please while the effects are still there, come and rest with us.’ I silently follow her, not daring to say anything in case I offend her in someway. If the tales were ever true, you don’t make any of the Guardians angry with you les you be punished for as long as they exist, an eternity to suffer.
‘It is so strange to see fellow Arcanine so soon. It is only every five years they gather here for three days. The event has already passed for this term as you can tell from the young ones with Sapphire. Sadly few came this time around, so many have been caught by the humans and at the rate they are going, there will be known of us left.’ I look up from the fruit in front of me and look into her half closed eyes.
‘How do you know of Sapphire?’ She turns to me with a slight smile.
‘It’s partly bloodline. The trainer I mentioned had an Arcanine who came here. The Iron Claw Clan are descended from one of the strongest Arcanine ever trained and they also have a little extra magic protecting them.’ Her eyes close more still as if thinking about his Arcanine with a slight blush surfaces from under her fur.
‘Will she be safe here?’ I ask after I throw a large mouthful down my throat. ‘She and her young ones I mean.’ The Guardian lifts her head and stares at me straight on.
‘She couldn’t be anywhere safer. Here her cubs may have a chance of seeing a future worth being a part of. I will make sure personally that they remain safe within my protection until time has been mended and life can begin again anew from this evil that plagues it now.’ She rests her head again on her paws, as I look skywards. Would that day ever come?
At least a day has passed now, the spoken words still humming through my mind as well as wondering about this trainer the Guardian had mentioned. We both knew that the power protecting this area was fading fast upon me and it was better I’d soon leave lest I be found. After much needed rest that I have no felt in years and food, it seemed like I was being forced into a curse that belonged to the outside world once more. Sapphire and the Guardian stand behind me, knowing themselves of the lack of time at the edge of her protection.
‘Dragon, I thank you. You have done so much for our Clan and gave us a chance to live. The cubs will at least see that there is hope for a better future. You have made my mates final wish come true.’ Sapphire wipes a tear from her water rippling eyes as she smiles at me. The Guardian then steps forward with her own words.
‘Dragon, I suggest you such for he young one of the late Larka. If you truly wish to know about the past, he’ll know. I should warn you that ever since Larka fell his heart has been bitter and vengeful, even lashing out at those under his own protection. You are strong enough to let him see but you’ll have to see for yourself. Your journey will be hard even ignoring my fellow Guardian’s path. A great destiny has been set in stone for you and it will be a painful one and with little reward for your heart. Remember never to fall into the human’s pit or darkness and find those untainted by the effects. We’ll all be praying for you, you are the only one who dares stand a chance against any of this. I wish you luck.’ With a smile to them both, I turn away and slowly begin to walk away, secretly wishing I too could be so safe. Quietly thinking to myself, I slip away from their gaze and back into the shadowed worlds that once brought us all into its life.
*Larka means first snow, the name of my Arty and a name from The Sight
**I can’t remember how to spell it u.u
I have nothing for you so get the hell outta my room! *bonk and more carriot related bonks* |
