***I DO NOT OWN ESCAFLOWNE AND ALL IT'S COMPONANTS, I DO NOT OWN ANYTHING ELSE THAT I DO NOT OWN AND I WISH THAT THE ESCAFLOWNE COMPANY WOULD FORGIVE ME OF MY TRESSPASSES AND FIND IT IN THEIR HEARTS TO UNDERSTAND WHY I AM WRITING THIS DISCLAIMER. Because I have to.*** -Pen Name: Marie Thacker; True Name: Becca.

AN: I am sorry for the sketchy-ness, but my friend, who first had this dream and is still writing it out has not finished it. And I havn't looked at it in a while, so I am unaware of what happens in the story so I will only write a bit of what I know. This story, only has a little to do with what Sammy's story has, but I will try my hardest to explain.

Prologue:

--Where can I start? Well, the question is, where did it start?
Oh, yuck, no. I scratch out the words that fill up my paper. -- Most stories start, at the beginning. Mine starts halfway through.
Even worse. I scribble over the inky letters and rip the paper in the process. I lean back in my chair and think about what had happened the last time we came to Gaea. Remembering how Sammy had been caught by this . . . guy and had an injection. I shivered at the thought of even coming within 15 miles of a medicinal needle. I still hate them, even though I sometimes have to give them to my patients.
I remembered how we came to Gaea, fought the "bad guys," (Apparently. We beat them up pretty bad though. I bet we wiped out over ½ of their troops before we went back to planning and tactics. Sometimes, Allan can be pretty smart, and he had this great play that totally beat us. For a temporary time.) and how we spent a few years in Gaea. Well, enough Danielle to raise seven children, and I, five. Then we came back to Earth, amazingly the same age as we were when we left, Ashley, 15; Sammy, 15; Danielle, 15; and I, Becca, 14. They always like to rub in how young I am compared to them. But I know they're just jealous. Me, and my "youthful vitality." Whatever that means.
I lean over my paper and begin to write. I start off where we first land on Gaea. In the same meadow where the Dragon-Slayers were taken up in the light back to Earth. The party where we all were was a less interesting part. It included Ashley making out, Danielle and I getting insanely hyper off sugar, and Sammy starring at us like we were crazed idiots. RB, making out with Ashley, Kris, Justin, and James absentmindedly playing pool, or, at least attempting to. Danielle and I had fun moving the pool balls around for no apparent reason. It was great.
Then, all of a sudden, we were sucked up in to this blue light. The original Dragon-Slayers (AN: much more different from Dilandau's DragonSlayers. We have a dash!) knew what was going on, but the guys, dude, it was funny, they were screaming around like little girls. Well, James was, but he usually does.
So, I begin my story at the halfway point of the Dragon-Slayers lives. I hope you enjoy reading this, and I wish you good luck, on your journey through life.

~Becca, The Healer of the Dragon-Slayers
