May '97

Shortly after I turned 18 on May 16th, I started to loose sleep for no particular reason. The finals were getting close, and every afternoon I sat at Ernie's place with the others studying.

"I hate English. The person who invented the essay was insane." I rubbed my head, I'd had a head ache all day, and it wasn't letting up.

My head shot up as a cry ripped through the air, making me wince. Looking around, I saw that no one else had heard it. The cry only got louder as time went on. The sound wasn't human, more like the roar of a dragon, one I knew rather well.

"I'll see ya later." I grabbed my things and walked out. When I got outside the noise spiked and I grabbed my head, my bag falling to the ground. I felt a hot liquid coming out of my ears, when I pulled my hands away and looked at them they were covered in blood. My nose was also bleeding.

I saw the center door open and the gang come through. My vision started to fade and my knees gave way. I blacked out as my body hit the ground.

-DreamState-

I stood at the top of AmberFalls, the sun rising behind me. Before me, floating over the lake the falls drained into, was a red and gold dragon. Easily classified as a Japanese dragon because of the long body and only 2 legs, Kagutsuchi was looking like the sun in the early morning light, his scales glowing.

"Hey Kagutsuchi, guess you're the one I should blame for the headache." The dragon only floated there. "You want to be useful. Don't you?"

Kagutsuchi let loose a cry, one much softer than before, more like a cry of a whale.

"Alright."

Kagutsuchi glowed red, and like my Phoenix gear, he disappeared in a flash of red light.

-End Dream-

I opened my eyes, I could see a crescent moon outside the window. I slowly sat up and looked around. Kat was asleep in a chair, sound asleep.

At the end of my bed were a teddy bear and my blanket. I grabbed the two and went back to sleep.

"Morning." I said not looking up from my book. "You know you can come in."

The gang stepped in, Rocky was in Hospital clothes, his neck in a brace. Kim and Jason also were part of the group. "Ok… how long was I out?" I asked looking from Rocky to Jason to Tayna.

"About a week."

I mentally smacked myself, great. "What happened to you?" I asked Rocky.

"Karate accident."

"Sucks to be you." I grinned. I loved being here.
