POV Nikolas
Hi, I'm Nikolas and I come from a town that I'm apparently not supposed to share the name of. The town for its secrecy is pretty big. We have a mall of all things, a few pretty big neighborhoods in the area along with one school. But in the school...I'm pretty hated for what I am. You see I'm not exactly human, I have... well, dragon DNA which allows me to transform partially into a dragon. You might find yourself asking: "but Nikolas what about your family", well I never knew who my dad was and my mom raises me on her own, but only because she can't have a child herself… so in other words she hates me too.
So to sum it up no friends, no family, and no one to look after me but myself. This has led me to hate humans and take prejudice on them when necessary. This is all due to me being part dragon, though it's not all bad. Part of my abilities as a half dragon consist of: spitting napalm-like fire, slowly morphing my hands into claws, and shifting my skin into scales for armor like purposes.
But now, here I stand in front of this hell hole they call a school ready to start another terrible day in it and it's not any better that the damn thing propped up on a cliff which leads to a 300 foot drop.
I'm dressed in a dark blue collared shirt with black pants, with my backpack full of school supplies and survival equipment, and a knife over my shoulder.
"Man I wish this entire place would just collapse." I say out loud as I walk in.
I'm going to be late again because my mom refuses to drive me to school. As I enter the school I see my principal Mr. Hotchkiss standing outside the main office. He then turns his head and spots me.
The principal gave me a look of sympathy, saying. "Late again Nikolas?"
"Yes." I say in a saddened tone as I walk by. I then noticed the the ground shake very faintly.
"Hey, Sir, can you meet me outside the building for a moment?" I ask with concern in my voice.
"Why did something happen?" Mr. Hotchkiss asked in a bit of a rush.
"No but, you're going to want to see this." I said as I pointed my finger towards the outside of the school.
The principle then gained a serious look on his face. "Alright Nikolas, lead the way." He advised as he walked towards me.
I walk out of the building with Mr. Hotchkiss following close behind. Just as we got to the flagpole outside of the school the ground began to shake violently. I staggered forward a bit trying to keep my balance. I heard a loud creecking sound followed by an earsplitting snap. I looked up to see the school crumbling as the foundation started to cave in. The school then fell backwards, plummeting into the cliff.
The ground in front of me crumbled and slid down into the abyss a bit, I nearly lost my footing and fell in the pit myself. I stared down at the school as it plummeted into darkness. The shrill screams of the doomed students occupying the now falling school. Though the cries for help and the horrified screams of my former tormentors only seemed to bring a smile to my face.
I smirked as I looked down at the school, somewhat eager to hear impact. Then, it came, a loud crashing sound of metal upon the bottom of the pit and the sudden silence of the screaming children.
A smile was all that stretched across my face as I stared down at the abyss, now filled with hundreds of dead children in cased in a tomb of rubble, most of which had tormented me every day of my life.
And in one final motion I looked up into the sky, grinning while I think 'Has god finally shined his light upon me?'
But not even a second after I thought that, the ground beneath me crumbled and collapsed dragging me down into the darkness below.
As I fell, my final thoughts before I came to my abrupt end where 'Why couldn't I enjoy my triumph as well?'
Meanwhile… in some other realm…
'Alright… now where'd I put that flower?' I thought as I rummaged through my pack. I then managed to find a couple of small purple flowers. 'There you are…' I thought as I pulled them out and clipped my pack shut.
I know most of you are wondering why I these little flowers were important to me. Well let us just say that dragons adore the taste of the petals. And I knew a couple of my companions were ready for a treat.
Let me explain, my name is Balin and I am a dragon tamer, though not the kind that usez brutality and fear to tame such a creature. I use a much more passive approach involving a certain technique I have mastered which seems to calm dragons. This technique is a series of whistles and body motions all played out in a fashion to soothe them. I then offer the dragon a special treat if the dragon accepts this treat then I continue to try and tame it, if it does not, then I leave the dragon be.
I've tried this technique on many dragons, most are usually calmed by it, but they do not trust me enough to accept the food. I've only successfully tamed three dragons in my six years out here, and I have gained two more who are friendly towards me, though they do not follow.
I crumbled up the petals and stuffed them into a cut open mouse. I then put the mouse in a frying pan and suspended the pan over a fireplace, sitting down on a log near the firepit while doing so. The sunlight shined through the tree's as I sat on the log, the only sound being the crackling of the fire.
'They'll love this.' I thought as I smirked, cooking the mouse over the fire. The sweet smell of the petals filled the air as they cooked inside the mouse. A gentle breeze blew passed me, carrying the small far into the forest. Not to long afterwards, the faint sound of footsteps rapidly approaching could be heard.
I chuckled a bit. 'Here comes the first…' I thought as I brought the frying pan away from the fire.
Not a minute later a blur burst out from the bushes and skidded to halt a couple feet away from me. I looked over to see my green friend the Speed Stinger sniffing the air. I smiled as the dragon looked over to me with an anxious look on his face.
"Hello Zippy, how are you doing?" I spoke as I grinned over at my reptilian friend.
Idiocy: Note I am terrible with name making…
The dragon croaked a bit in response as his eyes drifted over to the frying pan. The dragon's pupils dilated as it slowly padded over to the pan, its mouth watering in the process.
I raised the pan up, still grinning. "You want this?" I asked.
The dragon's head followed the pan as it stared longingly at it. I smirked and decided to end Zippy's torment.
"Here you go." I said as I launched the mouse out of the pan.
The mouse flung over Zippy's head and he jumped up, catching it in his mouth. He then chewed it up and swallowed it, licking his lips after doing so. He then zipped up to the pan and sniffed it, looking for more of the tasty treat.
"No more for you bud, you've had enough today." I said as I pulled the pan away.
The dragon whined a bit and looked at me with a pleading face.
I shook my head. "Sorry bud."
Zippy got the message and lowered his head, grumbling a bit as he sulked, laying down by the fire. I stared over at Zippy, admiring the majestic dragon.
You see Zippy was the most recent dragon I had gotten to join me. He was quite the challenge to tame though, with Speed Stingers being highly intelligent and aggressive, but I knew once he got a taste of the exotic flower he'd be easy to befriend.
"Don't be like that Zippy… I'll get you more mice tomorrow alright?" I suggested.
The dragon snorted and turned away from me, pouting. I merely rolled my eyes and shook my head at the display.
Zippy would always be a little grumpy when he didn't get his way. But most of the time he'd just pout for a little bit and be done with it…
After a few minutes I heard the faint sound of flapping wings in the distance. I smirked as I realized what it was.
'Here's the second…' I thought as I pulled a cooked squirrel out of my pack.
The sound started to get progressively louder and I stood up looking into the sky. I soon spotted my dark grey friend hovering over the clearing. The Stormcutter lowered herself towards the ground, her wings flinging dirt up into the air, spreading it all over the clearing. She then landed a few feet away from the fire, almost putting it out.
The Stormcutter's head then searched the clearing as she sniffed the air, most likely smelling the flowers.
I smiled as I watched the dragon search for her treat. "Hello Serena." I said as I dusted off my fur coat.
Serena looked over at me as I dusted off my wool trousers. She gave a small grunt as she stared over at me.
I chuckled after she did so. "Don't worry girl, Zippy didn't eat your share." I assured as I lifted the squirrel into the air and dangled it by its tail.
Serena's pupils dilated as she sat on her hind legs and folded her tail around her paws, staring at the squirrel with her head tilted a bit.
I smiled. "Good girl." I stated as I walked up to her.
Her eyes were glued to the squirrel as I lifted it up. I then nodded to her signaling that she could take it. She lowered her head and snatched the squirrel out of my grasp with her jaws. She then happily munched on the squirrel and swallowed it, giving a happy purring noise afterwards.
Serena was the second dragon I had tamed. She was a very proud dragon but she seemed to take a deep liking to my tune and became curious. She ended up following me around for quite some time until finally she ended up becoming an overall companion.
I chucked at the display and gave out a soft whistle. Serena understood and lowered herself to a crouching position. I then gently scratched her behind the ear. A loud purr rumbled in her throat as she leaned into my hand, savoring the feeling. I did this for a little while until I gradually ceased my scratching, bring my hand back down to my side. Serena whined a bit and looked over to me with pleading eyes. I smiled and shook my head, giving the dragon a small pat on her head while doing so.
"Sorry girl, but I've still gotta feed the big guy." I said as I started to walk out into the middle of the clearing.
Serena held the pleading look for a bit longer before she gave up and looked away, sitting on her hindlegs in the process.
'Alright…' I thought as my brown eyes drifted up towards the sky. 'Now it's time for the third.'
I then pinched my fingers together and bit them gently. This allowed me to emit a sharp whistle that sounded out into the forest. A couple seconds later I heard another faint flapping of wings in the distance.
'And here's the third…' I thought as the noise got progressively louder.
I minute later a massive dragon flew overhead and began to hover over the clearing. The Timberjack's wings managed to create quite the dust storm on the ground, even managing to put out the fire. The Timberjack then landed a couple feet away from Zippy, who jumped a bit at his sudden landing.
"Hey Tim." I greeted as got all of the dust out of my black hair.
Idiocy: Again… horrible with names…
Insane: Hey man you're pretty original.
Idiocy: At least I don't rely on auto correct…
Insane: At least I don't use Random Name Generator.
Idiocy: Yet you're no better with names…
Insane: At least I come up with mine.
Idiocy: Let us just get back to the story...
Tim lowered his head a bit out of respect and I returned the gesture.
"I've got a nice little surprise for you bud." I said as I walked over to my pack.
Tim tilted his head a bit as his eyes softened. I opened my bag and pulled out a somewhat cooked rabbit with the petals stuffed inside. Tim's eyes widened as he licked his lips, eagerly awaiting his snack. I walked up to the dragon and held the rabbit out before him. Tim quickly snachted up the rabbit and devoured it whole.
"There you go buddy, I hope you enjoyed it." I stated as I stared up at the massive dragon.
Tim leaned down and licked my face in response. I quickly stepped back and began to wipe the saliva off my face.
"Ah come on Tim!" I shouted as I continued to wipe his spit off the side of my face.
Tim ignored me and merely crouched down in the clearing, his massive wings hardly leaving any room for the other dragons and I.
Tim was my first dragon, the odd thing about him is that even though he has a daunting size and appearance, he was actually quite friendly. I approached him cautiously when first we met but he didn't even care that I was around him to be honest. Once he heard my tune and got a taste of my treats he started to warm up to me, even letting me ride him within only a day or two.
I smiled as I sat down on the log next to the now extinguished fireplace.
"Well guys… I gave you your treats, but I still need you to get some supplies for me." I stated as I looked and my three companions.
You see the three of us had a symbiotic relationship. Zippy would hunt and allow me to ride him for land transportation. Serena would be on constant lookout for threats and let me ride her in order to scout out the area. And lastly Tim would ward off enemies with his massive size and cut down trees for me to use for resources and trade.
I would repay all three of them with friendship, a soothing tune, and of course a tasty little treats.
I then stood up and began to stomp on the fireplace a bit, making sure the flames were completely put out. I then picked up my bag and strapped it around me preparing to move on into the wilderness.
Insane: Only you can stop forest fires.
'Welp let's-' My thoughts were interrupted when thunder boomed overhead. My head snapped up and I looked towards the sky. I saw a formation storm clouds in the distance and my eyes widened a bit. A bright light then flashed within the clouds and thunder boomed overhead yet again. Something fell out of the clouds and I squinted my eyes, trying to make out what it was exactly. I saw that it appeared to be some type of dragon and my eyes widened yet again.
'It's not stopping…' I thought as it continued to plummet to the ground.
I then gave out two sharp whistles and Zippy perked up. He quickly scurried over to me and I quickly climbed on his back.
"Come on guys!" I shouted and gave out a long whistle.
Tim and Serena quickly took to the air and Zippy sprinted forward. I clung to Speed Stinger's back as we headed towards where the dragon had fallen from the sky.
'I just hope we get there before someone else does…'
