Hey, I would like to say thank you to everyone who is reading my story! I apologize if my grammar and spelling is off, English is my second language and I'm still getting the hang of writing it. i know everything seems to be going very fast but trust me it will all slow down soon, I already have almost the whole story pre-written so im splitting it all up into chapters and posting them. Thank you and keep reading!
I followed professor Lankford through the halls. She had blonde hair and a sweet calm face, she was the spells professor. "Now as your first day here as a fledgling you must recognize some of our rules. This is your fledgling handbook I suggest you read it." She said handing me a small book.
I went to open it but found myself distracted as we paused. "Dragon, this is our newest fledgling dinami Lydia" professor Lankford said smiling at him. It wasn't the male vampyre professor Lankford was talking to I looked at it was the male vampyre beside him I stared at. "Welcome dinami, May I introduce myself as professor dragon Lankford and my two warriors whom have recently finished training with me, Draco and aspis" he said.
I nodded "hello" I said looking right at aspis. He had long blonde hair and he had beautiful green eyes, like a precious jewel was beaten into his eye. He looked at me and I could almost hear his heart skip a beat.
He was a big guy, almost as big as Kalona and definitely nicer looking then Kalona, well in my opinion anyway. Aspis stepped forward and eyed my tattoo. "Excuse me fledgling, if I may not be rude in asking, why is your name written within your mark?" he asked me in a soft voice.
"you're not being rude by asking me warrior, I haven't any idea why my name is within my mark, my name of birth was actually Anna Jennifer housings, but when I saw the name dinami in my tattoo I liked it so much I changed it" I replied looking right into his eyes.
He looked right into my eyes as well. "Well fledgling, do you know what dinami means in Greek?" he asked me moving closer. "I do not know but I can only guess" I replied. "Strength, your name is strength" he replied. "And I know your name in Greek, aspis such a nice name, your name meaning is shield" I replied.
I did not know where that information came from, I had no clue what it meant in Greek, and I couldn't read or speak Greek. I blushed and waited for him to blink at me and say "err no dude my name aint shield!" but instead I got a soft smile "correct fledgling" he replied.
I looked at him more and he looked at me more. "Well, um yes onward dinami!" professor Lankford said lunging forward and pulling me down the hall. I turned and caught one last glimpse of aspis as I disappeared around the corner.
Aspis.
Aspis's heart stopped beating as she left. He had the odd urge to go forth and protect that girl forever from the dangers flooding this house of night. "Whoa aspis wait" dragon's voice rang. Aspis found reality again and found dragon holding him back.
Aspis did not remember stepping forward. "You ok?" dragon asked blinking at aspis. Aspis opened his mouth to speak but couldn't summon the words to describe how he felt. "That girl" is all he managed to gasp. "What? Is she a danger?" dragon said instantly throwing his defensive up.
"NO!" aspis roared. The idea of anyone calling dinami a danger, that sweet face, the one that he could look at forever. "What then?" dragon demanded. There was a chuckle. "Dragon can it not be obvious? He has seemed to have fallen head over heels for that fledgling's beauty, aye she is beautiful aspis, but remember she is a fledgling and new one at that" Draco said turning to look at aspis.
Aspis blinked "its not her beauty, there is something more I swear it, like something in her eyes were trying to jump out and grab me and keep me forever, it was as if my heart was dying to fly to her for the taking, no not my heart, my very soul" aspis said stepping in the direction dinami had left in.
"Whoa now lover boy pay attention, I want you to know it's dangerous for a vampyre and fledgling to get involved" dragon said looking right at aspis. Aspis shook his head "I don't care what you say dragon I'm going off and I'm going to find out more about her" aspis said running off in the direction dinami had gone in.
Dragon
Dragon blinked as his favorite warrior aspis ran after that fledgling. "Is it possible for love at first sight Draco?" dragon asked. "I don't know, I haven't found myself a mate yet" Draco said shrugging. "It was different with Anastasia, she was amusement at first, it was too easy to get under her skin, my love for her grew on slowly, but he, wow he flew down that hall" dragon said shaking his head in disbelief.
"Well, that fledgling is one of a kind, we all know who sends the one of a kind fledglings" Draco pointed out. "Do you really think she was sent to help zoey?" dragon asked. "The words strength are tattooed right into her skin, isn't there a history about someone very close to nyx whom had the words strength tattooed into her mark?" Draco asked.
"What? I don't know I never paid attention in history" dragon snorted. "of course you didn't, there is this myth about a female vampyre by the name of dinami, she was born into the otherworld by none other than nyx, now nyx knew this child would be destined for greatness so she decided to name her third daughter something that would match up to her destiny, so the name dinami was born. Nyx sent the child to earth many times and throughout the ages she always was marked with the word dinami, she made ancient history and every time someone wanted to describe strength they used her name, dinami the creator and keeper of strength, this myth has long disappeared I was lucky enough to come across it though while reading for some sword skill" Draco said as the two men walked to the dining hall.
"How did you get from sword skill to a daughter of nyx?" dragon asked curiously. "She was within a very old book; apparently there are legends and stories dating as recently as the 1670's. A girl whom is born with an affinity for water and lighting whom also has a knack for blade skill, together these three make a very lethal combination. It is very rare and only a few vampyres have had it, I suggest you watch her carefully and see if maybe she has it, because the name of the gift is called the dinami force" Draco explained as they walked.
"Ok so what do I look for if she indeed dose have the dinami force?" dragon asked very curiously. This was of course rubbish but it at least gave him something to do. "watch out for when she gets mad, feel the air around you see if it feels suddenly alive, your skin should prickle, watch her fencing skill see how well she dose in your lessons today. Also keep an eye on her and aspis want to know what her consorts name was?" Draco asked.
"Let me guess, aspis the great shield?" dragon asked. "Actually that's the exact title" Draco said giving dragon a look. Dragon laughed and shook his head.
