The Familiar Chapter 2

Chapter II: Magic?


Soon enough, the trio were in the great outdoors.

"So, Nina what would you like me to do?" asked Chaos.

"What can you do is more of the question, Chaos." Nina replied.

"Well, let's see… I can combine magic, power up magic, sense magic…-"

"Okay, okay, that's enough! How about powering up magic?" asked Nina.

"Sure, first I got to get a feel for the magic you want me to power up…" With that Nina chanted the basic cyclone spell, it hit a nearby tree and shook off some leaves.

"Okay… now please do that spell again…" directed Chaos.

This time, when the spell came out, it was a blend of colors. With a big blast, it hit the same tree, but instead of just knocking some leaves off, the whole tree fell, leaving Ryu and Nina pretty wide-eyed.

"Oops!" Chaos apologized. "I didn't think that will happen... Nina, your magic is more powerful that I ever imagined..."

"You mean it wasn't you who did that, Chaos?"

"No, Nina I can only amplify spells to a certain extent, so, Nina, you have the potential to become quite a magician."

"Chaos… we got to talk, something is really bothering me…" Ryu said.

"Sure…"

So, with that, they went back into the hut.

"Nina, mind if I talk to Chaos alone?" Ryu said.

"Okay, I'll be our room, and do me a favor... Try not to kill each other, okay?" With that, she left.

"Chaos, I been meaning to ask you this question… I never seen a dragon like you. Where are you from? I am positive that you're NOT from Dragonier."

"Well…this might arouse some suspicion and it might not be much of an answer, but I have no idea where I'm from. I told you how much I know about my past before, but as far as where I'm from, I don't have a clue. It's like as if someone erased my memory of that part of my past. Either that, or someone really doesn't want me to know yet," replied Chaos.

"Hmm… oh yea… you said that you can feel the presence of magic," Chaos nodded. "Then the people of Dragonier said that they feel a bad Karma, probably magical since nothing physical has happed yet. Do you feel anything?"

"Uh… no, not really. I mean, nothing out of the ordinary, but then again… slight changes are hard to detect, so your friends might be right. I'll keep that in mind if I do feel anything."

"Alright, thanks for your time, Chaos. Let's go and find out what's for lunch with Nina."

"Sure, lets go."

At the tower...

"I wonder how things are going with Nina and Ryu?" Momo wondered. "Maybe I should go pay them a visit for old time sake," she said to no one in particular.

Then she shifted back to reality when she felt her faithful robot Honey tug on her clothing. "What is it, Honey?"

Then she noticed where Honey was pointing stood Rei paying his weekly visit.

"What's up Momo?" he asked, really casual-like.

"Nothing. I was just thinking of paying Nina and Ryu a visit... Hey, want to go with me?" she asked.

"Hey!! That's a pretty good idea. I been wondering what those lovebirds are up to." So, the two proceeded to the nearest transport point.

When they were proceeding, suddenly, a creature jumped out of the bushes and attacked them. Momo and Rei quickly summoned up their weapons and fought them off. After they finished, Rei went to see what had attacked them.

"What is that?" asked Momo.

"It's... I can't believe it!" exclaimed Rei.

"What is it, Rei?" asked Momo.

"It's a cheetah. It's pretty tame... I can't believed that it attacked us!!" Rei said.

As they continued their "trip", they weren't interrupted any more. Still, Rei was pretty baffled by how the cheetah attacked them. Finally, they reached the transporter and Momo inserted the coordinates to get to Dragonier. With that, they got to their destination.

After their arrival, they proceed to the outskirts, and got to the hut.
