Chapter 3 – The Birth of a legend

Magi Prime, an organization dedicated to the advancement of Humanity and the Earth through magic and science. The organization itself was once founded by an individual wizard by the name of Merlin which at first was the Mystic order. With the help of his followers, he established various chapters across the world hoping to make contact and spread the knowledge and influence. There were set backs of course due to certain events in history like the witch trials age. In time, the members of the mystic order isolated themselves for a time until the late 2000s. During isolation they uncovered secrets which lead them to discoveries of magical creatures. The most important discovery were the dragons of the hidden world through an old journal collected by a member during a tour. When they discovered the hidden world, it was as expected from the journal of an old Viking chief. Various species of dragon were shown inside an enchanted world filled colorful reefs along with other non-dragon creatures where they feasted. The leader at that time was Gandalf who dreamed of reintegrating Dragon kind to the surface but in order to do so, they needed to find a place to repopulate and raise them in secrecy for now. They would also need to make contact with the non-magical humans which succeeded due to less ignorance towards magic. To catch up with the modern age, the mystic order renamed themselves as Magi Prime. With financial and magical support, members of Magi Prime constructed chapters across the world in order to spread influence. As they spread, so did their power like gaining a private army as well as being politically involved with the world governments. They even built an underground facility of habitats were all the collected dragons are kept in each of the chapters. The biggest one was built under their headquarters located around Washington DC. By the year 2100, Magi Prime have introduced special potions with the ability to give human beings special abilities none would ever dream of. The special potions are simply called, MP Elixirs. The MP Elixirs were made by extracting DNA samples from captive dragons, liquefying the appropriate traits by merging them with stronger samples for a stronger one. For example, fusing muscle genes from a Submaripper and a Crimson Goregutter grants the ability to make humans physically stronger as if steroids are being used. The MP Elixirs had become so popular across the world, cooperate greed had caused the Magi Prime leadership to forget the original goal for the dragons but instead keep them for science experiments and of course… to produce more MP Elixirs for money which will be Humanity's biggest and last mistake.

Members of the United Nations are assembled today for an important meeting hosted by the board of Magi Prime. Due to their miracle cures, Magi Prime has become the leading provider of all medicine across the globe granting at least 80% of the human population. Towards the front seats were members of the Magi Prime leadership that included Balthazar III and Melissa. Approaching the podium is Ashley going to present the news. Ashley made an "ahem" towards the microphone as her assistants helped set up a crystal ball. After placing the ball, Ashley took her wand, pointed it, than the ball magically glow showing what looks like a hologram made of mystical dust. The Dust from the ball revealed an Elixir that is colored blue making the audience appalled in amazement. Ashley than decided to make her speech.

"Ladies and gentleman, for years since the beginning of time, there were once many intellectuals who were such geniuses to the point that we even landed a man on the moon. However, as time progressed we seemed to be facing a degradation of human intelligence that as species especially the modern young are getting dumber. Magi Prime, for years had developed the best Elixirs that mankind ever produced with allowed the biggest wrestler to enhance strength, grant people with the worse eyesight the ability to improve, the greatest runner more speed, and of course grant the ability to see in the dark. But the crisis had forced us for an initiative to create a serum that could put the greatest schools out of business."

Meanwhile, in the halls of the Habitat facility, a pair of workers were heading to the proto habitat room where Odin and Gaea were sleeping together covering something. As the pair of workmen walked towards the automatic door one spoke "Hey man, I don't know if anyone noticed, the two dragons have been acting strange lately" "how so?" the other workman asked. The first workman explained that lately when he tried to approach them to do more test, they been acting very protective of something. The second workman just brushed it off as they opened the door. The fury Odin who was sleeping woke up along with Gaea. When Odin spotted them, he started to growl angry at them threating them to back off as the Gaea was frightened guarding something forcing the two workers to leave needing to hatch a plan to get them out.

What they did is kept the door open placing a lot of fish causing both the fury and the Nightmare to smell them deciding to collect them. Gaea looked around the room checking for potential danger for something and she followed along. When the couple left the room, the door slammed shut making the couple freak out realizing whatever they are protecting is out of reach. The two workers of before tried to use the shocking spell but Odin noticed and blew a plasma breath at them knocking them off conscience. The terrified couple had no choice but to attempt to escape where ever they were in. One of the workers got up burned, picked up a radio shouted "LARRY TO SENITALS, LARRY TO SENITALS, THE TWO DRAGONS ARE TRYING TO ESCAPE, TAKE THEM DOWN". While the two dragons are busy trying to find an exit of the hall ways, various military-like individuals with guns are chasing them down. Hall after hall, the couple couldn't find a way out until they hit a dead end. Gaea at this point started to cry worried making Odin comfort her in a hug. As Gaea sobbed in the male's chest, the soldiers finally caught up to them pointing their guns. The Squad leader with a smirk aimed his AR-7 at the fury who went on guard. "Times up you slimy lizards" The Squad leader mocked as he pulled the trigger. As the bullet flew but instead of Odin, it hit Gaea in the chest killing her to protect Odin. Odin gazing at his dying mate started to tear than he turned his face in fury making him too hopelessly to shoot his remaining plasma blasts at the big squad of soldiers.

(Back at the UN)

Back at the UN hall Ashley finished her speech by saying "let me present you, MIRMIR'S ELIXER!" The crowd went wild in applause. During the applause, Balthazar III's phone was ringing making him get up and went to the lobby hall. Ashley who noticed her father followed him but not without telling the members to hold on along with her sister Melisa. In the hall Balthazar answered his phone and asked "What is it in the middle of something?" mumbling could be heard in the cell but whatever the person said Balthazar got angry and quietly shouted "WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU HAD THEM DOWN?!" Ashley who was listening gasped in horror worried that they might be referring to the dragons.

(Magi Prime, infirmary)

In the medical hall are bodies of soldiers are either burned or critically wounded by the Odin's rage. Odin However was put down by the same Squad leader who is currently wearing a cast on his arm. Towards the wall are two corpse of the dragons they killed. The Squad leader looking at the dragons was an African-American with a short afro named SGT. James Connors. Gazing at his kills one of the workers approached him with a worried face and asked "Sarge…. How are we going to tell the boss about this?" James was going to say something until the doors opened revealing horrified faces of Balthazar and his daughters. Ashley was more horriefied as she ran to the two dead dragons sobering over their bodies. As she mourned, Balthazar approached James and the worker named Garret demanding to know what happened.

(Few hours later, proto-habitat)

Ashley still depressed at the deaths of the dragons that she bonded with is by herself. Looking around the room filled with memories that she had training them. She searched through the room until she heard a crack on the bed. Ashley turned towards the bed with a Blanket in an awkward position. Another cracking sound is heard making her remove the blanket until it reveals a surprise making her gasp throwing her hands at her mouth. The surprise was an egg hatching out a young hybrid dragon. The baby's scale were black with green strips, its paws and padded underbelly were purplish white, and eyes are a different color with one purple and the other blue. The baby almost looked like a fury but it has two stubby horns sticking out behind its head as well as spines on its' back and fore paws. Further inspection shows the tail looked like a monstrous nightmare's as well as it private part identifying that its gender is male. Baby noticed Ashley with his cute adorable face, jumped into her arms cuddling up to sleep. Ashley on the other hand teared up at the baby making her realize why the two older dragons acted strange and whispered "They fell in love. (Sob) they were protecting their baby (Sob)".

End of chapter 3 so the main dragon is born, his parents are dead so what will happen if Ashley decides to show her father and sister, and what will be the baby's name? Stay tuned for chapter 4, a new beginning.
