Drakonis: The Prologue: Ch 1: Thus it begins with…
"Internal chamber clear…preparing for initial power up…"
A metallic voice breaks a deathly silence.
"....Capacitors 1 and 4 fully charged, initial energy transfer active...."
In an instant, a dark chamber explodes in lights of all colors, a small sun burning in the center of it.
"Power generation holding at 2%...preparing for diagnostic…"
From outside the chamber, an evil laugh seeps through the walls…
-----
"Ya know doc, why do you do the quack laugh every time you do anything?"
A blue mass shifts its one eye to an oversized cockroach, now scowling at the cycloptic mass. The room was eerily dark, save for the bright light coming from the strange sun. Aside were several computer screens, now active and giving readouts of the item in the room.
"Mad scientist, Bob; Mad scientist!" the cockroach said with a scowl. "Not quack laugh!"
A third form removed his goggles, laughing. "They sound the same to me either way…" He looked at the small sun behind the ten inch glass. "Congrats Doctor Cockroach, It looks like a generator!" They looked at the sun, burning away lightly in the side room.
The doctor looked at the generator then at the third person. "Yes…I do believe so…" he said with a small chuckle. "I honestly can't believe it actually worked…" A few beeps emanated from a computer near by, causing the doctor to shift his focus. "Hmm…" he hummed, thinking. Bob looked over his shoulder silently, watching intently.
"Hey doc…" he whispered. Dr. C however ignored the mass, typing profusely into the computer.
"Doc…"
There were signs of visible stress on the Doctors face as his eye twitched slightly, but he kept his focus.
"Hey Doc!!"
"WHAT?!" Doctor Cockroach yelled frustrated, turning quickly and staring into an almost floating eye. "What could you possibly want Bob!?" he yelled in his thick British accent.
Bob looked dazed and stared off in the distance for several seconds before looking into the Doctors large eyes. "Oh, sorry Doc, you say something?" He pointed at the computer screen. "I was just looking at this shiny thing over here…" Dr. C's eye twitched rapidly.
"Hey Bob!" The third person stole the blob's attention. "Let's get upstairs and leave the Doc to his business." He smiled. "I hear Janet's got a new outfit…"
Bob's face lit up. "Janet! I'm coming my love!" The third moved quickly to dodge a fast moving blue mass.
Dr. C sighed. "Thank you…I need to review this rather interesting data…" He looked at the third man then the stairs Bob walked up. "I guess I owe you for that."
The man smiled, waving it off. "Don't worry Doc, Everybody's getting back soon anyway…" He turned and walked to the stairs, then turning back. "I'll see you topside?"
The Doc looked up, distracted with the data. "Hm? Oh! Ah, yes. I'll be up…soon…" He mumbled, looking back to his computer and noting every detail. The other man shrugged in somewhat defeat, and walked up the stairs.
The Doctor sat once more, looking from the data to the generator to the space the man stood. He simply sighed and got back to his noting, now a bit more vigorous.

"Janet! Oh darling, you look dashing in red!" Bob danced around with his plate full of Jell-O. "And…wait…" He counted slowly. "You…are you working out?! You've lost a whole chunk!" The man sat outside on the roof, laughing at the Mass below and thinking back to earlier making a new Jell-O.
The man looked around at the entire compound, the large mansion that covers several acres, both under and over ground, the barn with the base beneath that would have even left "The Area" in awe. He turned to see the endless fields and the tree that had grown to over a mile high in less than a month. He smirked as he turned back once more to looking off the side of the house.
"Come my lovely, beautiful, giggly flower!"
In the distance he could see a woman in a gray and orange jumpsuit, with white hair coming down to the top of her back, carrying a large solid metal tube on her shoulder, walking toward the house. As she got closer, a green creature about an eighth of her size could be seen as well, sitting on her shoulder, laughing at something. In the sky, a large butterfly landed in the oversized tree close by, giving a small roar and poking its head out. The man stood up, waving at her in the distance.
"Susan!" he yelled out slowly, getting a delayed response from the woman. She smiled, almost breaking into a run and waving back. The green creature was surprised by the movement and held on to her shoulder for dear life.
"Hey!" It finally yelled. "Hey! Stop running!! Some of us aren't fifty feet tall!!" When she skidded to a stop suddenly, he flew forward, crashing into the house and leaving a dent his shape. The woman looked at the creature, putting a hand to her mouth and giggled.
"Oh, dear…" She said with a laugh, taking him off the wall and placing him on the ground. "Sorry 'bout that Link…" Link simply gave an unconscious grunt, his eyes rolling up in his head.
"Ah Susan! I see that everything went…well…" Dr. C walked out of the house, looking from the woman to Link on the ground to the dent in the house. He blinked several times in frustration before looking up at the woman once more. "Well, I take it that the plasma containment went as planned?"
Susan gave a small nod. "Right in here" she said, putting the tube that was half the height of her down, part of it going into the ground. "Worked like a charm." She ended with a small wink which made Dr. C look away with a blush.
"Of course it did" the man on the roof chimed in. "If Dr. C made it, then it will either work spectacularly, or blow up entirely!" He ended with a laugh, getting a small glare from a large cockroach below.
"I heard that!" he said, making Susan laugh once more. He sighed and smiled in defeat. "Well, pick it up, ill show you where I store those things now…" Susan with a small grunt lifted the tube over her shoulder once more and started walking away, looking back at the man on the roof. He gave a small wave looking her in the eyes and she smiled coyly back. With the loud thunk thunk of her footsteps, the man jumped down off the roof, landing next to a partly conscious link.
"Whoa…hey…did anyone…get the license…of the moose…" Link struggled to stand as the man helped him up.
"There, there now…" he said, helping him inside and into his tank. "Hard to imaging that a small bump knocked out Link…" he said under his breath. After dumping the fish man back in his tank, the man walked back outside to encounter a distressed Bob.
"Look!" he said, holding the red Jell-O up to the man's face. "Look! She's melting again!!" Bob looked franticly around. "You gotta tell me what to do! I'm no good with medicine! Somebody save Janet! Somebody…"
"Bob!" the man yelled laughing. "What did I tell you to do in situations like this?" The mass looked distant.
"Uhh…" Bob thought, all the while holding up a melting Janet, staying silent before speaking. "Don't moon the passers by?"
"No…" the man said with a small shake of his head.
"Don't blow up the place?"
"No, that's Dr. Cockroach…"
"Never sneeze inside the house?"
No, that Sus-"
"Oh! Never lift more than you can handle!"
"That's Li-"
"Never let Insecto near the food stock!"
"Bob-"
"Don't eat yellow sn-"
"Bob!" the man yelled, interrupting him, making the jabbering mass silent. "It's 'don't let Janet get too much sun, its bad for her…'" As he spoke Bob mindlessly mouthed along slowly with the man; He them motioned inside. "Now just put her in that special bed I told you about and she'll be fine in a few hours…"
Bob looked from the man to Janet. With a sniff, he agreed. "Alright…fine…" He sloshed slowly inside. "I'll miss you Janet…" he said, letting the contents fall in a mold. "Get well soon…" he whispered, shutting the fridge door. He returned outside, sniffing. "I miss her already…"
The man was going to say something, but was interrupted by a crash from outside. He ran out to see Susan on the ground and no Dr. C. Running over, he heard an undistinguishable mumble. Susan sat up, looking around.
"Doctor Cockroach?"
Another audible sound was heard as the man found 2 antennae jutting out from under her. Holding back a laugh, he motioned to her that she was sitting on the roach. After a second of processing, Susan's eyes widened and stood up quickly, pulling a stunned cockroach off her rear. Susan gave a weak smile, placing him on the ground. "Sorry Doc…"
"Don't morry wadam…" he said, discombobulated. "You crush can't a rockcoach…"
The man shrugged. "Wow…that's two down…" he said with a small laugh. He looked up, well, way up, at Susan. "But on the good news side, we were finally able to get the generator up and running." He grinned at her face lit up.
"So, that means…"
The man nodded. "You got it!" he said, smiling. "Tonight goes on as planned!"

"One! Two! One, Two, Three, Four!"
As the sun went down, the monster compound lit up with both light and excitement.
As a hired band played on, Link was loving his time covered by his female fans and loving the fact that most didn't have husbands, and even the ones that did wouldn't come over anyway!.
Dr. C was at the bar, trying his new drink, the Newtonian Gibson, the consumption of which feels like a 50 ton apple falls on your head. He offered one to a man in a suit, afterward causing the man to pass out from a single sip. The bug simply smiled evilly, resisting a laugh.
Bob was sloshing around, surprising the guests and biding his time until his Janet was solid once more.
A roar was heard in the distance as Insecto turned in for the night from up in the mile high tree.
Susan sat on a part of the grass, talking and laughing with her parents and other various family. She looked up silently; the sky was dark yet shining with several small dots of lights, making a very beautiful view.
Dr. C walked up to a hunched up Susan, slightly tipsy. "So! Sue…" he said, leaning on her thigh. "What seems to be happening over here?" Susan's parents looked a bit nervous at the drunken bug, but tried to stay courteous none the less. Susan simply laughed and looked around, a look of slight concern on her face. She looked up at the tree towering over the compound.
"Hey Doc, I'll be right back, ok?" She said, motioning to her parents. The giantess stood, slowly walking toward the tree, looking up. Pushing her hair back, she began to climb it, limb by limb, dodging spare branches and trying to break as few as possible. Halfway up, she passed a sleeping Insectosaurus; smiling, Susan placed a hand on its thick fur, receiving a low rumble which could have been received as a purr. She continued up the tree, finally finding the man lying on a branch, looking up at the dark sky. He looked over quietly then back up at the sky.
"Ah…hey Susan" he said quietly.
Susan smiled. "I figured as much…this being your favorite spot and all…" She pulled herself up, sitting on a branch as it creaked to hold her size. Noticing this, she quickly twisted a circle of the watch on her wrist. As it lit up with an eerie green color, her height slowly decreased, the strain of the branch relieved. She let out a low moan as her body shrunk. "Never could get used to that…" she said, down the ten feet. "I didn't see you down at the party" she added, narrowing her eyes a bit at the man.
The man shut his eyes, shaking his head and putting on a false smile. "Nah…I was for a while…" He looked down at the group. "But after this part year…and what happened to Monger and The Area…" He paused. "I never did enjoy celebrations…"
Susan looked stoic before leaning over hitting the man over the head roughly. The man nearly fell off the branch, holding on and looking at a laughing Susan. "If you keep up this serious act much longer, the others might actually fall for it" she said, picking him up, looking at him eye to eye. He gave a small smile, a real one this time, placing a hand on her face.
"Looks like I'm not as good at hiding things anymore…"
He eventually got Susan to set him down. The man looked once more at the sky, his smile fading. "It's been a while now, hasn't it…"
She looked up at the sky as well, the stars reflecting in her eyes. "Two years…"
Two years since their first meeting…two years since "The Accident"…
Two years since the lives of people everywhere began to change…
