The Legend of Dragoon 2

For now this story goes w/ The Legend of Dragoon, this is 16 years after the battle to save Endiness, and now the dragoons have had children of their own… A mysterious force kidnaps the dragoons, and now their children, entrusted w/ the dragoon spirits, are banding together to search for them… Shana had gotten her dragoon spirit back after Miranda had died on a quest, it had been in her will…

"Mom! Dad! I'm home!" Aarius called into an eerily silent house.

It was strange being home after being gone for nearly to years, on a journey to 'find herself'. Aarius had left a note telling her parents not to worry and that she would be back, she told them of her need and left, that was it, she had traveled through many perils traveling Endiness and finally she had found out who she truly was. "Mom! Dad?" Her voice echoed down the long corridors of her home.

Unwilling to grasp the fact that her parents were missing, she ran frantically through the entire house, searching, searching for some clue that her parents had been there. She ran into their room, it was the same as she remembered it, her father's swords, daggers, and armor cluttering the floor while her mother's large assortment of bows hanging on the walls, the bed was messy as if somebody had been sleeping there recently, something glinted on the pillows, drawing Aarius to them, two stones, one white and the other an orangish type of color. Instantly they were in her hands, they glowed automatically, blinding her for a moment before they disappeared. Aarius knew where they had gone, for, she felt a great power within her. Knowledge of what happened to her parents came to her at that moment.

"Dart, do you think Aarius is alright?" Shana asked quietly.

Dart pinched her cheek playfully, "Of course she is, I mean look at who her mother is after all…"

"She's only 14 though, she's still a child, Dart!" Shana said, crying softly.

Dart sat down soberly next to her, "I know, but we taught her well, she knows how to handle herself, if anybody messes with her she'll kick their asses…"

"I hope you're right…" Shana said softly, "I hope it's enough…"

"Remember, Shana, she dominated the hero's tournament last year, she showed no weakness and showed everybody the true extent of her power." Dart said.

Shana sighed, "I sure hope you're right, hopefully though she doesn't find any trouble and comes home soon…"

"Don't worry, Shana, she has a great inner strength… she'll come back when she figures things out for herself…"

A door slammed downstairs and heavy footfalls came towards them. Shana blanched, "That's not Aarius the footfalls are to heavy."

Dart grabbed one of his swords, "Stay back Shana!" He called over his shoulder when he noticed her inching towards her bows.

"But, Dart!" She cried as the door was flung open and several dark figures walked in.

Shana screamed as dark smoke filled the room, she saw Dart collapse, gasping in front of her before closing her eyes, the stone showed Aarius the dark figures that grabbed her parents and disappeared into the gloom.

Crying for the loss of her parents, Aarius grabbed her father's armor, a dagger, a sword, and one of her mother's precious bows, "I'll get you for this!!" She cried running out of the room and down into the kitchen, she furiously grabbed a few bags of gold and ran from the house.

Well that's all for now, my first chapter, I hope all that read this will review it, good or bad…
