Black Dragonett
Chapter 2
"…what is it?"
That was the first thing I heard. I kept my eyes closed, and listened.
"She says she's a dragonet hybrid from another planet. She also knows the secret to reviving our planet." I could hear the source of the voice rubbing his hands together.
"Tenma, how do you know? Did she say?"
"Not those exact words, but she hinted it. Can you believe it? What a surprise!"
I opened my eyes slowly, to see them staring at me. One was a lot shorter than the other, and the shorter one had a huge nose. I was tied with chains to a wall, I noticed. My eyes drooped with annoyance. "You've gotta be kidding me…" I sighed. "What do you want?" I snarled, showing my sharp teeth.
"We want you to heal this planet." The one with the big nose stated.
"No." Simple as that.
"Well, maybe we need to take a different approach." Tenma walked over to me, and undid the chains. I landed on my feet.
I growled at him, glaring. My wings were still netted, and my hands were chained, so I couldn't fly. But I could walk, and, of course, use my senses.
"Why are you doing this? First, you take me down with metal robots, and now you're letting me go? I-"
"Not entirely. I'm going to keep the netting and chains on so you can't get away." Tenma stated.
I rolled my eyes, exasperated. "Whatever…"
He and the other big-nosed doc pushed me outside, and into a car. The car started flying towards the surface. The doc with the big nose tried to strike up a conversation.
"So, what's your name?"
"I want to know yours first." I immediately answered.
"Okay…" he paused. "I'm Dr. Elephun."
I giggled. No wonder his nose was so big!
"What's so funny?" he asked.
"Your name matches your face!" I burst out laughing.
Dr. Elephun turned beat red, and Tenma glared a warning glare at me.
But I kept laughing. I doubted Tenma would want to mess with me.
"How can people on your planet like you when you're this rude?" he shouted.
I stopped laughing abruptly.
"They don't." I looked out the window guiltily.
"Oh." Dr. Elephun said quietly.
Tenma turned his attention back to driving.
(Insert border line here)
We had gotten there…
The Surface.
It was just plain sad.
"What did you guys DO?" I was furious. How could someone treat the poor planet like this?
Elephun blinked. "What?"
"WHAT? WHAT? EXCUSE ME!" with that one word that Dr. Elephun had said, I got so furious that I broke out of the chains, and the netting.
"YOU need to fix this, not me! You're the ones who did it! You gather up all the people, and burn all of the trash! THEN maybe I'll help you." By that time, that robot boy was here.
"What's your name?" I asked out of the blue.
"Uh… Astro?"
"Go and gather as many people as you can. We're going to clean up this disgusting mess."
