Sorry for the delay, everyone!


Chapter Eleven, Deadlox's pov

"Deadlox," Seto says from outside, frantically knocking my door. I groan, turning and looking out the window to see the moon was still in the sky. Sarah shifts next to me when the frantic knocking continues, and I sigh, getting up and walking over to the door.

"Seto," I groan when his hand hits my forehead after I open the door, moving my hand to rub where he had hit. "Ouch. And stop knocking so much. Sarah needs sleep."

"Sorry," he says. "You need to come with me and see this."

"Okay. Hold on," I say, walking back into my room and getting dressed quickly, leaving a note in case Sarah wakes up before walking back out. He leads me all the way to his lab, and we walk in to see Jason's helmet, the hybrid wolf, and an empty case connected to a big machine.

"What is this?," I ask as he walks over to a tray. He picks up a syringe and puts it into his arm, starting to draw blood. "What are you-"

"Calm down," he says, pulling it out and emptying it onto a dish, which he then puts into the empty case. "I was looking at the blood of the wolf with Jason's helmet sitting on the table, and when they got near each other there was a whistling noise. Watch, and listen, to this."

He starts the machine, opening up the sides of it, and I see some images show up on a screen, a ringing noise going through. "What? I'm wearing my headphones," I say to myself in confusion, checking to make sure the gem was there.

"That's not your ringing, Deadlox," he says. "We had no clue how the hybrid wolf was made a hybrid, and no clue what was going on with Jason's helmet. Screeching made the wolves retreat and made whoever touches the helmet retreat, so I put them in a small case together. There was no ringing, but there was a jump in energy. When I added my blood, the ringing started and the energy levels went through the roof. Both them and us have something in common with what changed them."

"But what is in common between-" I trail off. "Wait..."

"And there's no way that he would just do it to Jason's helmet or the wolves for no reason, right?," Seto asks.

"Are you saying..."

"That's exactly what I'm saying," he says. "Tyler has Goron."


"That explains everything!," Sky yells, jumping up and going over to the chest in his and Dawn's room.

"Easy Sky," I say.

"No no no. Hang on," he says, digging through the chest before pulling out the map he had shown me before. "Remember that one part of this map? The part that was too small to see correctly?"

He lays it out before pointing to the part, and I shrug. "Yeah I remember it. Why?"

"Maybe it's too small for a reason. Maybe they didn't want us to find out what was there," he says. "That could be where Goron is."

"Actually," I say, looking at the area around it. "Now that I think about it-"

I call Sundee and Jerome to the room and they walk through the door a few minutes later. "What did you need us for?," Jerome asks.

"Isn't this around the area where you found Jason?," I ask. The look at the map and nod.

"Well," Jerome says. "It was actually a bit further west than that, but close."

"But in their base you had no clue where you were right?," Sky asks, and they nod. "And in the room where you found Jason's helmet, what was in there again?"

"Uh... there were black scales and some blood on the ground. I just thought it was from other hybrids fighting or something," Jerome says. "I gave the scales to Seto, if you wanted to see them."

"No. It's fine," I say, standing. "However, we need to do a search party."

"What? Why?," Sundee asks.

"Because Tyler might have Goron."


"No!," Sarah shouts, covering her mouth with her hand. "He can't be there! He'd be in so much pain! He..."

"I know, Sarah. I know," I say gently, hugging her. "Just calm down, okay? It's not good for the baby."

"But my dad-"

"I know," I sigh. "I'm going to send Bajan and Jerome with some recruits in a few days. They're going to look for him, and hopefully get him out if he's there. I'm doing all I can right now."

"I know," she mumbles. "I just... I grew up without my dad. I don't want our baby to grow up without it's grandpa."

"And... hopefully it won't," I sigh, pulling back and looking at her. "But I can't promise anything, and I'm sorry I can't."

"Its not your fault," she says. "Its all my brother's fault. I want him to just leave us alone."

"We all do," I say.

"I want him to stop sending attacks and to let my dad go and to go away so that I'd never have to see him again."

"I'll tell him that," I say, smiling a bit. "You should get some rest."

"Yeah," she agrees, sighing, and she goes to our bed, us being in our bedroom so that we were away from all eyes and ears.

When she lays down I lean forward and kiss her. "Have a good nap, alright? Don't worry about anything," I say.

"Okay. Love you," she says.

"Love you too."


Of course, we thought everything would be fine.

But then explosions started going off.

"Kermit! Get some guards and gather the recruits that are by their rooms and bring them down to the bunker," I say through the telepathic communication. "Sundee. Find one of the guards and bring Sky down there too. Husky, go find the recruits on patrol and make sure they're safe. Don't bring them back until I say so. Mitch and Jerome, you two figure out what is going on. I'll meet you two soon."

Each send me a different response before they go silent, and I turn to one of the recruits who were waiting for instructions. "Go to the infirmary and make sure that General SetoSorcerer and General TrueMU are safe. If you're stopped, say that I sent you."

They nod and run off. I tell the rest of the waiting recruits to go and make sure everyone is going down to the bunker before running to the sleeping quarters.

"Sarah!," I shout through our telepathic link. "Where are you? Are you okay?"

"I'm fine," she says back. "I was with Dawn and Kermit. Kermit helped me down to the bunker."

"Good," I say, stopping. "Stay down there. I'm going to go find Bajan and Jerome and figure out what's going on."

"Okay. Just be safe," she says pointedly.

I laugh. "I will."

Our telepathic link cuts off and I start flying toward the nearest exit, changing into my half-form. Another explosion shakes the base, little pebbles and dust falling from the ceiling all around me until another one shakes the base, sending larger chunks of rock plummeting to the floor below. One narrowly misses me, me having to twist to the side before it hit my wing, which only makes a small rock hit me in the head. I just shake my head though, and continue to fly toward the exit. Just as I escape the base the area I was in collapses, the layers of rock and wood holding the base up gathering into a pile where I had been.

One of the first rocks that falls hits me in the leg, messing with my balance and sending me rolling to the ground. There is a roaring in my ears, and I mistaken it to be a side affect from whatever the rock had done to my head until there is a faint whistle too, and the area I'm in starts getting lighter.

"Deadlox! Watch out!," I hear, and a pair of wings surround me before I feel myself pulled from the area with the momentum of the dragon that helped me. There is an explosion just seconds after we roll out of the way, and when the pair of wings move I notice that there was a giant pit and fire where I had been before.

I give a breath of relief before turning to who had saved me, us thankfully in the cover of the trees. "Thanks Bajan."

He shakes his head, being in his complete dragon form, before morphing back into his half form. "There's an army out here. They're shooting fireballs at the base and setting off explosions underground. Jerome and I have tried to stop them, but there's too many."

"I'll call some of the recruits out," I say, getting ready to take off.

"Wait," he says. "They say they're the Outcasts."

I stop and look at him, and we stare at each other for a few moments before I nod. "We need to find Tyler,"

"Got that right," he says.

"Jerome," I call through the telepathic link. "Where are you? We need to find Tyler."

"Already working on it. Trees to the right of the base," he says back, and Bajan and I take off around the back of the base to where he said he was.

There is a moment where the explosions stop and everything is silent, making me look around uneasily. "We should get to cover for a bit. I don't like-"

A pained scream from Bajan cuts me off, and I turn to him to see him slowly falling to the ground, an arrow sticking out of his side. I shout out to him, and am just following him to the ground to try and help him when something knocks me to the side and I fall toward one of the towers of the base that were still intact. The breath is knocked out of me when I hit the side of the tower, and once again when I hit the ground. I heave for breaths for a few moments before something grabs me and I'm lifted up into the air, way above the base before I'm dropped again.

I quickly catch myself in the air with my wings, finding my balance in the air before looking up and seeing a red dragon glaring down at me. It swipes it's tail toward me and I twist out of the way, morphing into my full dragon form as well before flying toward it. I bite onto it's neck and it roars before trying to shake me off.

It finally succeeds when it just stops flying, not only managing to make me let go but also hurling me toward the ground. I catch myself just in time and look up again to see it hurtling toward me, and I begin to fly the other way.

The dragon gives chase after me, and though it was both a bit bigger and stronger I was more agile, and managed to shake it off by flying through the trees. However, I hear a roar from above, and realize it had flown above the trees and was following me from above.

"Look!," I shout. "Whoever you are, you need to stop!"

"Why would I do that?!," They shout down to me, in a voice I know so well.

They start to morph into a half form before my eyes, changing into a minecraftian. Once they finish I just glare at them, staying in my full dragon form. "You need to call off these attacks! This is doing more tha just hurting us, Tyler!"

"You know what my aim is!," He shouts down at me, also flying down and landing on a tree close to me. "I hate all of Sky army, of the 'Dead Army' now I guess. The recruits, the guards, especially the generals." Then he looks at me with fierceness. "And the leader."

He suddenly morphs back into his dragon form with a speed I hadn't seen before, and flies straight at me, knocking me out of the air and into a tree nearby. The shock of it all makes me turn into my half form, and I cough as I move off of the tree and start flying.

By then he had went back into his half form, and was raising an eyebrow at me. "You really do suck at fighting, don't you?"

"Get out of here Tyler! The Dead Army will win!," I tell him, and he laughs.

"I'll believe it if I see it. But, I won't," he says.

Suddenly a net catches around my wings and I start falling, hitting my head on the way down, and land on the ground with a thump. I hear him, once again in his dragon form, land next to me. He grabs me and throws me to the edge of the forest, and I groan. I am then picked up again, and I open my eyes just before I'm dropped back to the ground.


And so, after over a whole year this is updated once more.

HUGE sorry for the long wait. This past year has been a ride for me, and while I managed to update at least Saviors periodically, I never managed to make much time for many other stories. I explained why in an update on my profile at the very bottom, so go and check that out if you're interested in what exactly I've been dealing with as of recent which caused my lack of updating.

I'm writing this right after updating Similarly Different after finishing the latest monster sized episode for seven hours straight, so right now I'm feeling pretty good. I wanted to update this before the drive to write things wore off and I pass out from mind exhaustion, so you're welcome. Look forward to (hopefully) more frequent updates on this.

Now, where I actually talk about the chapter.

What do you guys think Tyler wants with Goron? Is he going to turn the people in his army into half human, half dragon people? Or is there some deeper meaning to it all? Let me know what you guys think. I know what it means, of course, but I want to know what you guys think.

I was going to work on the next chapter of We Are The Last after updating this, but I am fried and my back hurts from sitting at the computer so long. I think I've done enough writing for today, which is why I'm going to leave that update for another day. I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter, though. Bye!
