Dragoneyr
The story of the lost race
Prologue
Long, Long ago, back in the medieval era, there lived two different types of countries. The first country of people lived on the lower register of the land. The others lived on the hill tops and surprisingly had no noses. Both countries had there wide rang of land, and had two separate kings. Of course with every thing, Kings get greedy. The King of the lower country wanted the land of the upper country, but never tried any thing. He never tried because there was a secret with in the lands. Within the lower register of the land, dragons who appear every night. They would appear and bring fear into the citizens. They would take away there vegetables and run off there the life stock.
These Dragons where then later called the Dragoneyrs (DRAGONair). They where called that because they where never found in the day. It was like they have vanished in thin air. The King of the lower country didn't know what to do. He wanted the dragons murdered. So when ever the Dragoneyrs where seen in the town they where ordered to be killed. That didn't work very well because the Dragoneyrs had long beautiful wings to fly off with, plus they could breathe fire. More humans where being killed then dragons. This went on for as long as the king lived. When he finally passed, his son took charge. He was known as King Gero.
He wasn't as empty headed as his father. He studied the Dragoneyrs when ever they landed on to there land. He made notice of there features. He noticed not one Dragoneyr looked alike and key part, they had no noses.
Chapter 1. The beginning of the pain.
"King Gero!" yelled one of the guards as he was running from the outside.
"Yes? What is it?" the king was at the moment talking to the general, General Nineteen.
"The Dragoneyrs!! One of them is attacking us!!"
"What?" yelled General Nineteen. "They've never done that before!" They ran over to the window. He looked out to see one of the Dragoneyrs going around all crazy like. He was burning up every thing is site and killing off as many people as it could.
King Gero had good eye site. He took a close look upon the it. He saw that it had two horns, and a big gash over its right eye and many long scratches over its left cheek.
"I've seen this one before," said King Gero. "This one seems to be that assassin I was telling you about general."
"Really? Why do you call him an assassin?"
"Because I watch his moves." Said Gero. "He tries to make it into our Castle every time. He fails, but he's trying to kill me."
"Do you think he is a threat?"
King Gero laughed. "None of them are a threat to me. Have one of the guards shoot there gun in the air. That will scare the silly dragon away."
The General did what he was told and the what happened, happened. The Dragoneyr was called off and flew away.
The king from his castle laughed as he saw the Dragoneyr fly off into the distains. "See? What did I tell you? No threat at all." He then started to walk into the back room, the general's room. He walked over and went to the general's desk. He moved some papers and saw the sketch of that same Dragoneyr. He looked at the scares on its face.
"General Nineteen,"
"Yes Sir?" he said and he walked over to his desk.
"Give me the profiles on all the knights in the upper country." That was a little secret that the king had up his sleeve. He made a bio on all the knights of that time. He had been making it even before his father had passed away. No one but him and the general knew about this.
General Nineteen then went and picked up the bios. "Who are you looking for sir?"
"Give me the bio on, Natder Chestnut."
Nineteen looked into the files. He picked up his file on Natder. "Here you are."
King Gero looked at the bio. He laughed. "I think this is our man."
"Why do you say so sir?"
King Gero turned the file around. He had made a self sketch of all the knights. The scares on his faced matched the Dragoneyrs. "Invite the king of the upper country to a late dinner. I think he'd he delighted to attended." He then gave an evil laugh.
--
The Dragoneyr flew off into a dried up cave. He stood there. The dragon then started to do some thing out of the ordinary. He started to transform. The Two horns on his head got smaller and turned into little dots on his head. His wings then morphed back into his shoulder blade. His big spikes on the his back went back into his spine. His yellow eyes went back into human eyes. The only thing that stayed with him where the scares he had on his face. There the man stood there naked. He was a short man with two dots on his bald head.
"That was damn close." He said. He then went and picked up his cloths form the cave and put them on. He then put half a piece of his shirt cloth he called a beanie to cover up the two dots on his head. He walked out of the cave with a bag of goods for his country. He walked up the hill to where he lived. He then took the long walk to the castle of the Dragoneyrs.
The guards looked at him and let him in the castle.
"Thanks." Said the man. He walked in a made it all the way into the castle and got next to the king. "Your honor." He then bowed down.
The King was a very generous man. He was old and has been the king there for over 30 years. He was getting weaker and so far had no air to the thrown. He wasn't married, there for he had to pick some one to be the new king in his place.
The king then addressed the man by his name. "Natder. I'm glad to have a determined man like you as a knight,"
Natder started to smile, until he saw the uncertainty in the Kings face.
"But, you can't keep killing every thing in site for our food." Said the king as he stood up and started to walk to the window.
"But sir, they won't just give it to us; we have to fight for survival!" Said Natder in a determent voice.
The king turned to Natder. "Natder, the reason I agreed to stealing food from them was because we don't have any of it here, and we needed it. We've been over staying our welcome for way to long now. I'm afraid that they mite be catching on to what we are doing."
"Sir I can assure you that they won't!"
"Natder, the old king has died and his son is in place. We just can't assume that the son is like the father."
"But sir……………………………………."
"No, Natder I have made up my mind. You are not to go into the lower land any more. If I have to I'll send an other knight, but your time over there is over."
Natder's eyes got big. "Sir, you can't disown me as a knight!"
"I do not disown you. You're just not allowed into that country anymore. You must stay here, and never leave."
"Sir, Why do you say this?!?"
The King took a good look at him. "Because they will catch onto you. Natder the scares are your face will single you out. We have been taking to close of chances with this. I'm made up my mind." The king then started to walk out of the room.
Natder was pissed. He had never been so degraded in all of his life. Natder had been working for this King since he was 18. He was now in his 30's and he had a son on the way. This was an honor for him and it was taken away. 'The king doesn't know what he is doing! I can't believe this happened to me!!'
Natder kicked the trash can before he left.
Right after he left the messenger boy came walking in. He ran around the castle until he found the King. "You honor, this just came in from the lower country."
The King picked up the message. It read:
Dear King Shin
I would be delighted if you could come to my castle for a late dinner. I think of it as a kind of peace treaty. Be here as soon as you can please.
Sincerely
King Gero
The king knew it had to be some type of a trap. He though about it, 'I should just go, maybe Natder was right.You never know.'
--
Natder walked down the street into his home. He was so upset he knocked a lot of things over. He then pushed his front door open. He looked over to see his wife taking care of there egg.
"Honey?" she said and she was rocking the egg back and forth. "You look mad what is wrong?"
"Nothing. I'm fine, don't worry." He lied as he when to get some thing to eat. He saw betel on the floor, picked it up and ate it. He was really hungry. "How's our son?"
"He's fine. I think he's going to Hatch soon." She said as she rubbed the egg. "We should give him a name."
"Hmm, I guess so."
They had weird ways of naming there kids. They carved the name on the egg, that way the kids name would be on its chest for ID purposes. It had to be done before the egg was hatched or it didn't work.
"What do you want to name it?" asked Natder in kind of a negative tone.
"How about Krillin?" said his wife.
"Sure." Natder then made his right arm turn into a Dragon and carved the name "Krillin" on the egg. The name then glowed and sunk into the egg.
She looked at him. "Natder! You didn't even give it a second thought."
"Do I need to?" he said as he walked away.
She gave him a look of discuss. "Well yeah, he's our son!"
He just started to walk off farther. His wife then got up and grabbed his arm. "What's wrong with you? You're not your-self!"
He gave her a glare. "I am what I normally am."
"No your not, Did some thing happen at the lower country?"
"No, I'm fine."
"Natder, some thing happ……............................................."
Natder turned around in a fast and aggressive manner. He then grabbed her shoulders. "There is nothing wrong with me." He said in a deadly tone.
His wife was getting frighten. "H-honey?"
He started to press his hands into her shoulders. He then repeated slowly and somewhat calmly. "THERE…….IS…………NOTHING………………WRONG………………..WITH……..ME."
She was scared. "Y-yes. There is nothing wrong."
He then stopped. He walked backwards. His wife then went and grabbed her arms. She started to cry a bit. There where big hug bruises on her shoulders.
"I'm going out." Said Natder as he walked out the door.
Hi wife started to cry. 'What happened to the man I married?' she asked her self. 'It wasn't until he became a knight like his father he started to act like this. All he wants is death to accrue!'
She then crawled up to the baby egg. 'I hope you're not like your father.' She though as she cried and picked up the egg. 'He can be a sweet man when he wants to be, and not in the mood to kill.'
She then sat down on her set and started to rub the egg. "Shush, baby, every thing is alright."
She then started to rock back and forth in comforting her baby. She felt really uncertain and had no idea what was going to happen.
--
The King and the guards that came with him, made there way to the lower country. It would have taken them hours to get to it, but instead they flew. King shin made sure he knew who his knights where. Little did he know, he had a stole away. Natder disguise him-self to look like another knight, by covering up most of his scares.
By the time they got there, King Gero was looking out his window. "There here." He whispered to General Nineteen. "Is it ready?"
Nineteen shook his head. "It is ready sir."
"Good." He turned his head. "Bring them in."
The guards then brought the King in. He came in and saw King Gero sitting at his thrown. "Hello there King Shin, It is an honor to finally be in your presence."
"Like wise." Said King Shin. "I found it a surprise when you told me to meet you at this time of night, for a late dinner."
"Yes I was shocked honestly that you decided to come………………………"
The King was starting to relax until King Gero finished his thoughts.
"………………………………By the way how was it you got here so fast?"
The King's eyes went big out of fear. King Gero saw this and continued.
"I mean it takes hours to get from the upper country. How where you able to get here so fast?"
He looked at the King Gero. "So you know. Hmm you're not like your father."
"Oh course not King Shin, My father was old and a dead beat just like you. He never noticed the obvious facts. The dots on your heads most of you are all bald, and the fact that none of you have noses? My father was an idiot and will be forever known as one!"
King Shin started to walk backward a bit. He then started to lie. "Your father wasn't an idiot. We never told any one, but we made it a deal that we could take some of your crops and farm land…………………………………………"
"Save the Bull shit, grandpa." Said King Gero. "My father couldn't keep a secret to save his soul, so I know that's a lie. You whole race is full of cheats and liars! It's a good thing you guy won't survive."
"What does that mean??!?" yelled King Shin.
King Gero then gave off an evil grin. "You see, General Nineteen here gives the orders when I do, and those orders would be to bomb your country. He could do it in a flash if I order him too……………………………………"
King Shin was standing there breathless. He didn't know what to do. He needed to save his people; he needed to think of some thing.
"No please! I-I'll do any thing please!!"
King Gero turned to him. "There's one thing u need to do then. You need to leave, you and your race of 'Dragoneyrs.' You must all leave by the end of this week, starting tonight."
"How is that possible?" said King Shin. "How am I going to tell every one that they have to leave there birth place and there homes?"
King Gero smiled. "It starts with you. You leave, they all follow. You're there king, your gone they leave."
The king had no other chose, he didn't want to leave them, but it would have been a greater lost if they had died.
"Well, I don't think there is much of a chose here. When do I leave?"
"Right now if it is possible," King Gero then pointed to the sky. "You can just fly out that away and never come back."
"No. I won't just abandon them like that. I'll will go back to my country, and announce the fact that our race has to leave, but I will not leave them to figure every thing out on there own. My knights will accompany me."
King Shin then started to walk out. Things for Gero where going as planed. He walked out and saw from his window King Shin and his knights getting ready to fly off.
"Should I give the single sir?" asked General Nineteen.
"Not yet," said Gero. He wanted until he saw King Shin put his cloths into a bag. Then he witness for the first time in his life a Dragoneyr turn into a dragon.
His eyes widen. It was odd seeing a human turn into a dragon. King Shin then took off and started to fly over to the upper country.
King Gero never taking his eyes off of him said only two words. "Shoot him."
After the call was giving one shot was given and it hit King Shin directly in the heart. King Shin then fell to the ground fast and hard. The knights followed down and flew to his side. Natder came down faster then the other ones. He flew down and turned back into him-self.
"KING!!" he yelled. There was no answer. He ran over to the King. "KING?"
There was still no answer. He went to look at the king and saw blood flowing out of his chest. The king slowly turned back into his human form.
"King? King, are you going to be alright?"
The king looked up with a last bit of strength. "Natder? I though I forbid you to………………….."
"That doesn't matter now, Come on I need to get you help." He then started to drag the king along.
"Natder…………………………….." said the king in a weaker voice.
"Yeah?" Said Natder as he turned his head.
"……………….Save our people, Save………………….." The king then became cold and dead.
Natder felt a tear come down his face. He looked up to see that the Lower castle rising with cheer. His eyes became cold and heartless. Natder was in the mood to kill.
The other knights then landed down and walked over to Natder. As they turned back into humans they ran over one ran over to Natder.
"Natder, what has happened? What's wrong with the king?"
"We are in war with the lower country." Said Natder in his toneless voice.
"What? What do you mean?"
"The King as been assassinate. He's last words to me where 'Save our people.' We are in war with the humans" He turned to look at them. "We will attack them now. Most of you come with me; others go back and get more people. I will get my revenge."
He then turned into a dragon. He gave off a loud howl. The other knights follow the same. Natder turned around and flew into the sky and off to the castle. The other then followed.
Thus started the war that was to end all pain.
The war didn't last long. With out a King to direct the Dragoneyrs they fought recklessly and lost miserably. King Gero knew all along what was going to happen, so he had no worries about the out come. Since the Dragoneyrs where losing most of them had the sense to just leave and find a new home. If that is not what they did then they ether fought and died, or was killed in the own country.
Natder fought with all his strength but alone was not enough. He lost his will to fight when he found out his wife was murdered by a human knight, when she was waiting for him to come home and the egg was taken. He was killed in the hands of King Gero. Before he was killed he swore that he would get his revenge one day. King Gero then slit his throat.
When Natder was killed, all of the rest of the Dragoneyrs then flew off. He was there "Leader" in this war and with out him there was no point in staying. King Gero though he got his way. He got the land his father dreamed of having and every thing was at peace. He was so sure of him-self he erased it from merory. He had every event with a Dragoneyr removed from his head. He loved to mess around with science so it was physically possible for him to do this. He then got rid of all his flies and paper work on them, since he didn't need them anymore. He was so sure of him-self that didn't need them any more.
In this time his wife became pregnant and had a set of twins. He and a boy and a girl. He named the oldest, Juuhachi-gou, the princess to the thrown. The other was named Juunana-gou, the prince to the thrown. It was to be left to who ever was married first. He then ordered his servants to go into the upper country and Take what ever goods they could. That could have been his biggest mistake.
"Hey! Hey look what I found!" yelled one of the servants. He then picked up an old piece of pottery. "What do you think this used to be?"
"Trash!" laughed another servant. It was like a mini party for them. Only the male servants where aloud to look around. A little boy with weird hair was running around looking for things to keep from him-self.
"Master! Master Roshi, look at this!!" yelled the boy as he ran to an older man. This boy looked to be about maybe 3 years older or younger. He called the old man "Master" because the boy was orphaned and didn't want to call him dad.
"What? What is it Goku?" said the old man. "What is it that you have found?"
"I think it's an egg!!" said Goku as he ran to give it to him.
"An egg?" he then picked it up from the boy. The egg was just about the boy's size. "This egg is huge!!"
"It could be dinner huh Master?!?" asked Goku.
"Sure thing. Now go fine us some thing for our home!"
The boy shook his head then ran off. As the boy ran off, Master Roshi took a good look at the egg. He saw the name, "Krillin" flashing on and off.
"GAHH!!" he yelled as he dropped the egg on the floor. He took a good look at the egg. The name still flashed on and off, then mysteriously went into the egg. Still keeping his eye on the egg, he watched as it slowly started to hatch. He saw what looked like a baby dragon come out of the egg. It had 6 little horns, little wings and little spikes coming out of its back. It was the weirdest thing he had ever seen.
'This must be on of the Dragoneyrs they where talking about.' He thought. He was just about to call for help to kill the little thing until he witnessed another miracle. He saw it transform into a human baby. It was now bald and nose less. It now had 6 dots on its head it stead of horns. The name he saw on the egg was imbedded on his chest, Krillin. It then again mysteriously went into his chest.
'That must be its name.' Though Master Roshi. 'I can't call for some one to kill it. It's just a baby.'
Master Roshi was a big softly, that's why he had Goku. He decided to keep him and tell no one he was a Dragoneyr. 'It wouldn't be that hard to keep him a secret.' Though Roshi. 'He'll just work in the castle with me and Goku. He won't be that big of a problem.'
He then picked up an old towel and wrapped the baby in it. "Goku!!" yelled Roshi.
"Coming!!" yelled Goku as he was running. "Look at what I found!" He then gave Roshi and little necklace that read "Natder" on it. Goku looked up and saw Roshi holding a baby.
"What happened to the egg?" asked Goku as he looked around.
Roshi got a little nervous. He couldn't tell him the baby came out of the egg, so he though of a quick lie. "A man came and stole it from me!"
Goku gave off a sad face. "But I found that egg."
"I know you did, so I stole his baby."
Goku then gave off a happy face. "Does that mean I now have a baby brother?"
Roshi then shook his head. "Yes, you see now you can play with him and the prince and princess!"
Goku then gave off a bigger happy face. "Oh Boy!!" Goku then gave Roshi the necklace he found and ran around in circles, the way 3 years olds do. Roshi looked at it. He had no idea what it meant, but he decided that he would give the necklace to the baby when he was older, since he was a Dragoneyr. It would mite have so purpose to the boy.
"Come on Goku!" yelled Roshi "It's time to go home."
Roshi then took Goku and the new baby boy, Krillin, to his new home, within the castle walls.
