Hello comrades, Sporedude135 is now working on the main project. I will still work on the Spore Side-Project, but I'm going to focus on the main project for now. Hope you enjoy!
The Lone Dragon
Chapter 1
Vokun had been falling through the wormhole for hours. He hasn't even been killed yet. Though he feels so much pain right now, like the wormhole is tearing him apart. He roared loudly, feeling his entire body change shape, bone cracking and being enlarged as well as being replaced by crystals. He could feel himself turn into one of his own minions. The pain is unbearable, but he's been through worse, though it was really close to that time. He is losing energy fast. He could see a light at the end of the wormhole, but before he could enter it, he went unconscious.
A few hours later, he woke up under the shade of a tree, but a tree made of his crystal. In fact, a large area around him has been turned to crystal. He tries to get up, but notices that his entire body has changed. More crystals cover him than before and he lost most of his armor. He could still feel a lot of pain from his trip through the wormhole, so he tried to make a crystal tower to heal himself with.
"What!? Why are my powers not working," Vokun yells as he tries to make the tower. Everytime he tries, he always gets the same result...nothing. He tried using his other powers, but with the same result. At least his crystal breath still works properly.
"Aw great! How am I supposed to make my new kingdom now!?" He makes his way through the forest, breaking through the crystal converted trees if they get in his way. They shatter like glass easily. Suddenly, he smelt the scent of crystallized meat. He walks behind a crystal formation and finds a dragon that he hasn't seen before crystallized in a state of anger.
"Odd...I figured-" Vokun was cut off when he heard rustling behind a small boulder. He decides to investigate. He rounds the large rock and finds something strange.
There are two children, one a girl, and the other a boy, both in a state of fear. They're clothes are all tattered and they seem injured. But the thing that interested him the most is the fact that they have wings, horns, and features similar to his. The crystals that are on their back are even the same crystals as himself.
But why would he be interested in humans? He shouldn't! He walks away, leaving the children to fend for themselves.
"Why should I care about tiny human children!? They aren't even useful at all," Vokun yells as he finally exits the crystal zone and into the actual forest. He felt as if something is following him. So he turns his head, and see's that the two children are following him. He turns his head back around and continues walking, knowing the children can't attack him.
"Should we weally say thank you to him? He doesn't seem the kind of dwagon to accept a thank you," the little girl says to the boy.
"Um...yes Vivi, he saved our lives, it would be best to thank him...and plus he looks familiar," the boy replied. They walk up to Vokun, who is staring out over a cliff face mumbling to himself. They were surprised that he can talk.
"Um...excuse me," the boy says.
"Go away. I don't need your thanks," Vokun yells at them, not even bothering to turn his head around. This scared Vivi and she hid behind her older brother.
"Are you familiar? I swear we've seen you before," the boy says.
"What part of go away did you two not understand!? Go!? Or away!?" The children backed away a little after Vokun said that. But the boy is still brave, despite the dragon standing in front of him. He sensed that Vokun had something in common with himself.
"Aren't you a Crystalback," the boy said. Sighing because the boy interrupted his thoughts, he turns to look at the boy.
"Listen here bud, I ain't what you call a 'Crystalback,' okay!? Im just a normal crystal dragon, so get lost before I lose my patience," Vokun said. Even after that, the boy wouldn't budge. Vokun is really losing patience.
"Don't you have parents looking for you? Go to them now before I get tired of you and kick you two off of this very cliff," Vokun yells at them. Vivi bursts into tears as Vokun stares angrily at them.
"We don't have any...we have no one to even watch over us. Everyone just wats to kill me and my sister because we're halflings," the boy said. Vokun was about yell at them again, but he began to think about what the boy just said.
"You...don't have parents?"
"Thats right. Our mother tried to hide us because of our dragon parts. Our father was a Crystalback, so we had crystals as well. But soon someone fount out. They killed our mother because she was raising halfling children. Our village was at war with dragons, so it made sense for them to do it. We made it out as they burned down our house. We have been surviving on our own for a while now," the boy explained. Something about what that boy said struck a cord inside Vokun's head.
"I...am very sorry for your loss. I've had a bad experience in my childhood as well. Im not telling you two anything about it however," Vokun said.
"We have been trying to find a loving family for months now and we still can't find a single one because of our...features," the boy said.
"Could you be ouw dad?" The boy turns around to see Vivi come out from behind him. Vokun blinked at the little girl's request. He hasn't been a father in...well he never was a father.
"...what NO?! Why should I take care of you two!? I am Vokun, king of crystals, and I would be the one remembered as the dragon who took care of human? No way! Now scram," Vokun said. He turns around and was about to fly away from the them until he felt something grab onto his tail. He turns his head and see's Vivi hugging his tail.
"But ..." Vivi gave him the puppy-eye treatment. She tried her hardest, but Vokun isn't buying it.
"Get off me." She wouldn't let go of him, even if he shook his tail to get her off.
"Please..." Vokun looks at her once again. Suddenly, Vokun's vision began to change. Instead of seeing her, he can see himself, though younger and still on Remnant, staring over a lake, crying as sparks fly over him. Why did Vivi remind him of himself so much!?
"Wha...how...*sigh* fine! You can come with me, but if you annoy me, I will get rid of you. Do you understand!?"
Thank you mistew Vokun! Me and my brothew Elusk will not get into twouble," Vivi said. Vokun sighed as the two siblings got on his back. He's gonna regret this isn't he? He lifts off of the ground in search of a new cave, at least something thats good enough to sleep in.
A few hours later
As the sun sets over the horizon, a group of people, Vikings if you would, enter the crystal zone. A short and skinny man with bright green eyes, black, spiked hair, and well defined cheekbones, along with his german shepard, walk out of a crystal bush along with a bunch of other vikings.
"We will camp here for the night. That Crystalback isn't too far," the man said. His german shepard begins to sniff around the area as the hunting party set up camp. After exploring a little, the hunters gather around a map, showing the entire archipelago.
"So, from all reports, the dragon flew away after appearing here. It flew to the east from here, heading to where we believe is a cave," the man explained.
"Crystalbacks are hard to kill, and they seem to actually resist the queen dragon's commanding force when it was still alive. It must either be very huge, or very strong. No matter what it is, we will kill this beast, it will give us riches beyond imagining!
The next day
At the crystal zone, a mass of black and red oozes from a crystal formation. The mass begins to take shape, forming what looks to be what Vokun looked like before his trip through the wormhole, except he's black, red, white, and his check whiskers are grey and a black flame starts at the end of his tail. The thing looks around him, trying to find Vokun, but it seems he isn't here. The beast lets out a low bellowing noise as it flies off in another direction. As soon as it leaves, six dragon riders, along with their dragons, land in the crystal area.
"What kind of dragon can do this," one of the teens said.
"I have no idea, I've read over the Book of Dragons many times, and have never seen a dragon capable of doing this," another teen said. They notice what seems to be the remains of a camp site and a puddle of red liquid nearby. The riders look at each other in shock.
"Whatever it is, we need to get to it before those hunters can, it seems that it has already taken a beating," the first dragon rider said. His dragon, I believe is a Night Fury, sniffs the ground and finds a scent it hasn't seen before. It looks in the general direction of the scent and see's a bunch of tree's pushed away like they were paper.
"Whoa...whatever the dragon is, we need it," one of the teens, riding on I believe is a Hideous Zippleback, says.
"We can cause all kinds of trouble with it," the other Zippleback rider said. They bang their helmets together as they walk through the trail of destruction. They end up overlooking the ocean. They can see a bunch of large dragon-like footprints, there might have been a struggle.
"Bud, can you pick up the scent," the Night Fury rider asked, patting the dragon on the side of the head. The Night Fury began to sniff the air and fount the air is full of the unknown dragon's scent. The Night Fury points it's head in the direction of the scent's trail. The general direction is a place that the riders know all too well. It's their hometown!
"Wait...the dragon is heading for Berk!" They quickly took off after the dragon, flying up into the air quickly to catch up to the unknown dragon. They have no idea what kind of terror the dragon could do if it fount Berk. Or if it is even a foe, they won't know until they find the dragon. And they better hurry.
Well guys, the LTCBE timeline is now continued. You can find both Vokun's new look and the unknown dragon on my Deviantart account. And yes, the dragon riders are the riders from the actual movie, I'm just gonna make it so that their names are revealed when Vokun finds out or they say their names. Hope you like it. And sorry if it is short, I'm just looking for more ideas, and if you have an idea for anything relating to a new story or old story, just put a review and I'm sure to get right to it.
