I know, I'm horrible. I've pretty much been wiped of the face of the FanFiction world, and, just when I publish something, I have band camp for two weeks and then I'm going to Florida.
Anyway, after I watched Highschool of the Dead, I became terrified of the dark, so I've been sleeping as well as a five-year-old hopped up on sugar. So, as I was lying in bed last night, I thought of this story. So, here it is!
Disclaimer: I own nothing but the concept of Dragon Teeth being attracted to other Dragon Teeth.
Prologue: A New Tooth
The nightmares had come again.
Ever since Aaron and I defeated Fiersome seven years ago and I obtained one of the dragon's teeth, nightmares plagued me on the anniversary of the day we fought him. They were always horrible and made me wake up screaming, covered from head to toe in sweat. And, because of those nigtmares, I was curled up in my bed, even though it was a school day. Mom and Dad always let me off after the nightmares.
I was still shivering when a knock came at the door. I got up and slowly made my way downstairs, wondering why Dad didn't say anything to the visitor. He usually did, since he works outside all day. When I got downstairs, however, the visitor was already inside.
Yue.
"Yue? Why are you here?"
An hour later, I sat across from Yue, shocked. "Y-You're kidding me, right? I mean, why today? On the anniversary of Fiersome's defeat, why would another dragon fall?"
"It wasn't just today, Aria." Yue said. "It happened almost a month ago. I just got the letter from my cousin, Sakuya, today."
"Why did she wait so long to write?"
"She wanted to, but Aunt Shino told her to wait until everything calmed down. I thought you should know." The older woman paused and, as if she hadn't just told me about a monumental happening, said, "I'm leaving town again soon. Would you like to come?"
"Where?"
"Sharance."
A week later, I was trudging through the forest behind Yue. I was surprised at how well she moved in that kimono. Dang, she walked fast! Soon, however, we walked up a hill and I saw a gigantic cherry blossom tree. "Is this it?"
Yue looked at the teen and gave a sad smile. "Welcome to Sharance."
