Reign of Chaos - Ch4 - Royal Survivor
They find a royal survivor; try guessing who it is…
Nero awoke to the usual smell of bacon & eggs. Snowy was the best cook Nero knew, she had won many cooking competitions before the virus situation.
Nero got out of bed and went to go eat his sisters famous cooking. Life wasn't the same without interaction with other living things. As of he thought, him, Ash and Snowy were the only survivors in New York City.
On the way to the kitchen he passed the staircase hat led down to his laboratory. He stopped, turned around and went down the stairs into his laboratory. He just remembered his attempt of finding a cure.
The door opened as Nero walked up. Nero felt a verge of hope flow through him as he saw the chemicals were working. The dragon he was doing this on was showing signs of unbelievable change. The dragon was regaining it's colour as a red/orange fire looking dragon. Unfortunately the dragon had died when it hit the concrete, after Ash and himself were getting chased, a day ago.
Nero examined the stabiliser screen next to the bench where the almost cured dragon lay. It was progress, great progress.
He had to tell the others the great news, as he ran back up the stairs to the kitchen.
"Great news!" Nero said urgently as he appeared running around the corner.
Snowy looked up, a wondering look on her face.
"What, what?" she asked still with the wondering look.
"It's working… I have almost found a cure!" Nero said quickly.
Snowy smiled like the world had just been saved. "That's wonderful news, I'm glad at least one of us payed attention in science class" Snowy said with a puzzled look.
"So… where's that little trouble-maker Ash?" asked Nero with a wondering look.
"He's sleeping in…" Snowy exclaimed as she rolled her eyes.
"Seriously… why does he have to sleep in for so long?" asked Snowy as she sighed.
"Well… it's his loss his breakfast is gonna go cold" Nero replied with a smile.
"Oh, please don't tell me my breakfast is cold!" Ash said in a tired voice.
"The Ash awakens!" Nero said while laughing.
"What… time… is it?" asked Ash as he sat down on a stool next to Nero and started to eat his bacon & eggs.
"Ummm" Snowy said as she looked at the clock on the far wall. "Quarter past twelve".
"Whoa! I'm early today" Ash exclaimed.
"Early!" Nero shouted.
"Yeah, early" Ash replied.
"It's almost noon" Nero protested.
"Oh well" Ash replied "Let's have a nice easy day today… at home".
"Ok, I've had enough of running from those things" Nero replied.
Ash nodded. Nero then realised that he had to be in the centre of the city everyday at midday.
"Ok see-ya in an hour of so" Nero said as he walked off to the garage.
"Bye" Snowy said as she waved him off.
"Wait, wait I'm coming!" Ash called after him.
(Centre of New York City)
"No sign of anybody or anything… let's go home" ash said in an immensely bored voice.
"Ok then" Nero said in the occasionally disappointed voice.
Back at home Snowy had shut the steel barricades so their house wasn't exposed to the danger that lurked in the shadows of the night. Snowy was getting worried about the guys, they hadn't been home since twelve midday.
She heard the sound of a car pulling into the driveway and into the garage. Then the sound of an engine turning off.
'That's them…' she thought.
The two male dragons entered. Waving to Snowy as they headed down into laboratory.
It was fully dark now. You would be like a piece of cheese if you went out at this time. The zombie type creatures would be like the mice.
The male dragon came back after about half an hour. They were cheerful.
"Making slow progress" Ash muttered.
"Great!" Snowy said.
They were alerted when they heard banging on the door.
"Let me in please!" A slightly familiar voice screamed from outside.
Nero ran to the door opened it. A purple dragon ran straight in. Cuts, bruises and critical injuries swarmed his body.
"President Spyro!?" Snowy said in disbelief.
The president was panting in exhaustion.
Ash looked through the little mailbox slot.
He saw figures approaching from the shadows of the ruined city of New York.
"Nero they're coming!" Ash said in astonishment.
Nero immediately went to a control panel on the wall and pressed some of the many buttons.
Outside lights shone upon the zombie creatures. They ran out of the ray of light as it shone upon them.
They screamed as if they had been shot when the lights shone upon them.
Ash re looked through the mail slot and saw them retreating.
"They're retreating" ash said in relief.
"They'll be back… in bigger numbers" Spyro managed to get out.
Nero smiled "I have set up many traps that are impossible to get past"
"And if they get past your traps?" asked president Spyro.
There was silence and Nero didn't know what to say.
"Let's give you some hospitality" Snowy said as she went to get the first aid kit.
"Great now they know where we live!" Nero said as he stomped on the floor.
"I'm sorry… however I got your message" Spyro said slightly smiling.
"Great so it worked" Nero replied.
"Ok let's get some sleep" Ash said as he yawned.
Ash and Nero went to sleep while Snowy bandaged Spyro of his wounds.
"Thank-you for this" Spyro said.
"Anything for the president" Snowy replied with a smile.
So the president is Spyro… I say he would be the president in a world like this one…
Just like the movie, he found a cure! However he hasn't got the 100 cure.
I can't wait! School holidays after Friday! How long does everybody get I get 2 weeks off.
Don't forget to review!
