Hello people of the interwebs! I'm back with a brand new story for you all! This is centered around my organization, the ERD. You can find information about it in my bio. Hope you all enjoy!

Deiya and Jordan sat in their hideout on a little island they discovered. Deiya had decided to form their group barely a month ago, and Jordan heard about it and asked to join. Deiya had immediately accepted him and in a short while he became a Commander. Today was just an ordinary day. They were about to leave for evening patrol when they heard wingbeats and a dragon landing. Then, a human voice.

"Well, here we go bro. Another stop in our journey." The dragon rumbled in response.

"Deiya listen! The dragon said that he was very tired and needed to rest. When he falls asleep, lets go see who he is." Jordan whispered.

"Alright, let's go." Deiya said.

"Is that so? Alright we can set up camp here for now. Sound good?" The voice said. The dragon grunted a few more things in reply.

"He said good choice Deiya. This mystery person can speak Dragonese. He can't be all that harmful can he?" Jordan asked.

"Just wait Jordan. We'll see." Deiya responded.

An hour later

Deiya and Jordan now crept silently toward the campsite. For protection, their dragons followed behind. Then they saw the mystery person's dragon.

"Deiya, is that what I think it is?" Jordan asked.

"Yes Jordan, I believe it is." Deiya responded.

It was then that the dragon noticed them and growled. At this, the mystery person woke up with a start. He too noticed the pair immediately.

"Who the hell are you? And how did you find me?" mystery man said.

"We mean no harm, and you have nothing to fear. We ride dragons too." Deiya said. And at that the dragons appeared behind her and Jordan.

"Wow, cool! A Skrill and a Nadder. Oh, where are my manners. I am Chancey Colborn, and this is my Night Fury, Blackout. Now, I have a few other dragons as well. I can show them to you. Follow me." Chancey took off towards a cave in the side of a rock face. They found three dragons, including two they had never seen before.

He introduced them to each one. They learned that Tristam was the grey dragon they had never seen before, Rush was the brown dragon they had never seen before, and Vicetone was his small green messenger Terror. Chancey told them that the grey one was an Exterminator, which was extremely rare, and Rush was a Wooly Howl, which was also rare.

"I have another one, and he is in this small bay over here." Chancey gestured to the natural bay.

Deiya and Jordan followed, speechless at this man, or boy rather, and they soon reached the bay's edge. Chancey whistled three times, and a fin poked out from under the water.

"This is Drew, my Sea Shocker." Chancey told them.

It was Deiya who found her voice first. "Wow, quite a family of dragons you have. By the way, I'm Deiya, and this is Jordan. We are protectors of the dragons and Vikings relationships. We are a secret organization called the Elite Riders Department. We both love dragons, and since you love them too, would you like to settle down and join us?"

For Chancey, this was an opportunity of a lifetime. He had left home looking for opportunity, and here it presented itself to him. He jumped at the chance. "Yes! I would love to join you!"

"Alright, you will join Jordan as commander of the organization. Once we get enough people joining us, you will have your own regiment of soldiers." Deiya said.

"A lot of responsibility. But I think I can handle it. Thanks."

"First, we need to know a bit about you." Jordan told him, handing him a form. "Fill this out and return it to Deiya by tomorrow. Let's go get your stuff and get you settled in the hideout."

This should be fun. I finally have a home! thought Chancey.

" Your dragons will have their own stables in the rock face behind the hideout. Drew can live in a small underwater cavern that connect to the hideout." Jordan explained.

"Wow that sounds great! Thank you guys. It means a lot." Chancey said.

After Chancey is settled

"Alright you can sleep here. Jordan and I will head out on our nightly patrols. I'm sure this has taken quite a toll on you, so you rest for now." Deiya told him.

"Alright, sounds good. Thank you again guys." Chancey told her.

"Anything for a dragon lover. See you tomorrow morning!"

"Ok, safe flying, and good night."

As soon as they left, he curled up next to Blackout and swiftly fell asleep. And for the first time in forever, he slept with a smile on his face.

Alright, there we go, the first chapter of The ERD Adventures. Some background on Chancey Colborn: Ran away from home because of abuse. Befriended Blackout early on, met the others on his journeys. You can find more info on him in my bio. Extras: Can you guess my dragons' namesakes? And, one more thing. Chancey is actually me, as you might be able to tell, so the POV will be mostly mine.
