"How hard did he hit his head?" I'm just sitting there and waiting for him to wake up after I dragged him out of that crater. I had been sitting there for almost three hours and having had nothing better to do I took to drawing in the dirt, I've made a very good likeness of my dragon Aurora.
I forgot to mention, I have a dragon too. Her name is Aurora, which means dawn, and she has this weird sixth sense which means she finds me when I actually need her. Like right now, she often tends to knock some sense into me.
I felt the air pick up around me and Aurora landed next me and starts to nuzzle me. I smile softly at her and start to pet her. Then she notices the boy and goes to investigate. I watch as she sniffs him and then starts licking his face. Which apparently wakes him up because he starts to move.
Huh. Where am I? Wait, who am I? Then everything is wet forcing me to open my eyes and a giant dragon is licking my face. It looks like a giant rainbow that is highlighted with silver. Then the dragon backs away and I see her. The Most beautiful girl I had ever seen, brown hair with gold and silver highlights, Dark blue eyes that remind me of the night sky.
Snapping back to reality I try to get up but find I'm too weak. The next thing I know I have a dagger pointed at my throat.
"Who the hell are you and why are you here?" I give him a calculating look while he just looks confused. Then he talks, "I don't know." This makes me pause, "What do you mean you don't know?" He just looks at me, "I can't remember anything!" Then he starts to hyperventilate and go into shock so I do the only thing I can think of then. Slap him...hard.
He blinks at me in shock making me sigh, " If you don't remember than let me fill in a few gaps...you're in Hiroshi's Labyrinth. My best guess is you got chased by some of the shadow beasts and were hit on the head when the blast went off, I think you caused the blast though." He just nods and looks around the little clearing and seems a little lost. I sheath my dagger then I whistle a little and Aurora comes over to me.
I look over at the boy and after a silent mental debate I grab his arm. "Just so you know not everyone knows about this place and the only reason you get to go there is because it's dangerous to walk around with no memories." He looks at me confused. "Where exactly are we going?" I just smirk and get on Aurora pulling him on behind me. "That's for me to know and you to find out."
Then Aurora takes off and heads back to the sanctuary with the boy I found in the jungle. I watch the scenery and then I feel it, the barrier.
We have a sort of magical barrier that surrounds the sanctuary. It makes it look like another part of the jungle and will transport you directly to the other side, unless of course someone invites you in.
Looking at the sanctuary from above always makes me smile. It's basically a bunch of different habitats for each of the different dragons, such as water, ice, fire , lightning, earth and air. Though some dragons shared habitats such as air and earth, and some dragons don't have a habitat and just stay in the forest areas.
I glance back at the boy and he's looking at everything and I just smile. "You would never think this is in the middle of a jungle but Hiroshi's Labyrinth was made to hide this place. Hey…" Then I pause, I don't even know what to call him. He's looking at me curiously waiting for me to continue. "I don't even know what to call you. Any sort of name you can think of?" I see him thinking, then he answer's as Aurora goes to land by my house. "I can remember the name Lloyd..so I guess you can call me that." I smile at him. "Well Lloyd welcome to the dragon's sanctuary."
