I have gotten two new characters. Thanks go to ShadowHawk and Aileena for Shadow and Leena Serris. Now most of you said from 25-35 on Zeig's age. I picked 29. It was from random. Anyway here is chapter 8 of The New Crisis.
************************************************************************
Snap is laying down on the bed to the right of Zeig. Dart is on the left. The sun outside has somehow managed to find its way directly shining on Snap's face. Snap picks up his pillow and places it on top of his head. It doesn't help much.
Snap:(frustrated) What does a guy have to do to get some sleep around here!!
Snap gets out of bed and puts on his armor. Then he leaves the room and walks down stairs. He walks up to the bar.
Snap: Can I have some hot tea, please?
Man behind the bar: Sure.
Snap: Thank you.
Men behind the bar: No problem. It's on the house.
Snap: Thank you, again.
Man behind the bar: My name is Franhs. If you want anything don't bother to ask me. ok?
Snap: Yeah. sure.
Franhs: Here is your drink, Mr. Feld.
Snap: Just call me Snap.
Franhs; Is that a nickname?
Snap: No it is my real name.( sounding kinda ticked)
Franhs: (cowering slightly) Ok, sir.
Snap knew he had to get out of this city. All this kindness was making him weak. And weak was one thing Snap could not be. He had to be strong to protect his friends from what he knew was coming.
Snap finishes his tea and leaves the hotel. He remembers what happened yesterday with that boy, Seth. Snap never could resist being nice to parents and kids. He guessed it was because that was what he had missed, A real childhood.
Snap turns left and makes his way to the port. There Trey and Seth were getting ready to go fishing again. This time in a new boat. Snap walks towards them and Trey spots him.
Trey: Good morning, is it not?
Snap: No I couldn't sleep a wink. What are you two doing today?
Seth: We are going fishing again. Do you wanna come? Please?
Trey: Now Seth. Snap is a busy young man and he can't play with us all the time.
Snap: (kneeling over to Seth) I'll come.
Trey: Really!
Snap: Sure. I love to fish.
Trey: Well then here is you a fishin rod.
Snap: Thanks.
Seth: While we fish, can you tell me about the moon that did set.
Snap: Sure.
Seth: YAY!!
Trey: You know something Snap. You are beginning to feel like a part of this family.
Snap: Well then let's see. Uncle Trey let's hope we have another good catch today.
Trey: (laughing)Ok nephew. Snap.(trying to push off put with no luck)
Snap: (grabbing the oar)Here let me push off.
Trey: Ok( sits down and starts to bait the fishing line on each pole)
Seth: you sure are Stong, Snap.
Snap: Well I try to keep that way. I know a lot of stong people.
Trey: Do you travel alone or with others? I mean besides that black haired lady.
Snap: No I travel with 4 others. After today there might be another travelling with us.
Trey: who??
Snap: A fighter and hunter named Reiko.
Trey: You're going to travel with REIKO!!
Snap: Maybe. Why??
Trey: He's is very strong and talented in martial arts, but he tends to stay off to himself.
Snap: Oh A lone wolf. Heh?
Trey: Yes the lonest wolf of all.
Snap: Well. Who knows, maybe he will change.
Seth: Will you tell me about the moon now?
Snap: weeelllll, It is kinda hard to explain but I will tell you a story that has to do with it.
Snap relaxes and begins the story of Dart and his adventure around the world. Of course he doesn't tell the names he just says a young man did so and so to save the world. The boy sits quietly as Snap tells the story of events eight yeaars ago.
When snap finishes the boy is totally excited.
Seth: Wow!! They saved the world.
Snap: Yeah they did.
Seth: So the moon was the soul of a monster.
Snap: Yep, but the dragoons destroyed it and saved the world.
Seth: (turning to his Grandpa) I want to be a Dragoon and travel the world helping people.
Trey: Well if you really want to then use the stardust Snap gave you. But wait till you are older.
Seth: OK. When I grow up I'm gonna be a star studying Dragoon.
Snap smiles. Seth still didn't give up his wish to study the stars. That was good. Nobody should ever give up their dreams.
Then Snap's Dragoon Spirit in his armor began to glow dimly.
Snap:What the ???
The water about 50 feet in front of their boat parts and a large blue sea dragon emerges and eats a nerby fishermen. Then the dragon looks directly at Snap.
Snap: Trey, Seth, run to the back of the boat.
Trey: What do you plan on doing??
Snap: This!!!!!
Snap crosses his arms again and does a quick change into the Plasma Dragoon. His double bladed staff shoots from the sum and into his arms. He keeps it in staff mode as he equips his canon.
Seth: Wow!! Snap is a Dragoon, Grandpa.
Trey: (amazed) Snap, Will you be ok??
Snap: Yeah I'll be fine.
Snap spreads all four wings and calls on his two wingly wings. Then he flies off the boat and at the dragon at full speed. Once he gets close to the dragon, he raises his staff above his head and twirls it.
Snap: Fire!!!
The dragon moves closer, and tries to bight Snap. Snap barely dodges the attack.
Sanp: Wall!!!!
A cylinder of fire covers Snap. It works like a offensive shield. It protects Snap and if the dragon touches it, it gets burned. Only problem is this dragon is based on water and a large portion of Snap's power is fire. They are almost complete opposites. But Snap has light too.
Snap: SHINING!!!
Snap begins to glow white.
Snap: PROJECTION!!!!
Snap's body multiplies into four more. All four of them charge up their staffs and charge the dragon. Snap A, The real Snap Attacks the head. He flies through it with his staff spinning in front of him. Snap B attacks the dragons left leg. He unequips the canon and splits his swords, after that he stabs the leg and then splits the swords left and right. Totally removing the leg from the body.
Snap C goes for the other leg with the same attack. Snap D is aiming for the left arm. He charges his staff until it glows redder than the sun. Then he slices downward on the arm, Removing it as well. Lastly, Snap D"s target is the other arm. He stabs the arm ad then splins the blade quickly. He spins so fast the arm catches fire, then he unequips his canon, divides his staff and stabs the other sword into the arm. He steps back with the swords deep inside and forces his hands together. As he splits them the swords split up and down, severing the right arm.
From the boat all Trey and seth can see is five red blurs flying around the dragon. When they all stop they come back into the real Snap's Body. Snap then puts his staff under his left arm, and the canon begins to charge.
Snap: PLASMA!!!
The blinding light is driving the dragon into the water.
Snap: DRAGOON!!!
The Dragon Dives further in the water to evade the light. White lines appear over Snap's head in weird formations. The lines flash and then harden into a black helmet over Snap's head. Only Snap's mouth and chin can be seen. A red gem is over Snap's left eye.
Inside the helmet Snap sees a large green grid with red crosshairs. Snap moves his head down towards the water beneath him. On the grid a large bright form of the dragon appears. The crosshairs move on to the form and as they lock they turn blue and a beep can be heard.
Snap: CANON!!!
A stream of plasma emerges from the canon and heads towards the water. As it nears, the water seperates around it. It goes deep into the water where the dragon waits. It strikes the dragon then heads back up towards the sun.
A cloud finds its way infront of the sun. The stream fades.
Snap: Damn!!
Then an image of a old book appears behind the dragon. It opens. On its pages many myths and legends are put in pictures. The pictures come to life and start to mindlessly attack the dragon. Every time one attacks it fades afterwards. As they continue the pages of the book keep turning.
A monster fills the last page.
Snap: I have seen this attack before. It is the Book Of....
Snap is cut off by a female voice. He turns to see a woman in the sky.
Woman: SHADOWS!!!!
The monster on the last page comes to life. It is humongous. It has the wings of a dragon, the head of a huge bull, the body of mustang, and the legs of a cheetah. It was truly ugly and very scary looking.
It hovers in front of the dragon. Then it opens it's bull like mouth and a ray of darkness with the trim of holy white shoots forth and colides with the dragon's stomach.
It eats it from the inside out. The dragon then appears on one of the pages of the book. The book then fades away.
Snap: The Shadow Dragoon?!!
Woman: (Sweeping down beside him.) You called.
Her voice was sweet, unlike the voice that had called the spell. But Snap knew that the user of the Shadow Dragoon Spirit also had the side effect of multiple personalities.
Snap: Hi I am Snap. The Draggon of the Plasma Dragon.
Woman: Nice to meet you Snap. I'm Leena. Leena Serris.
Snap: Well Leena, that was quite a powerful attack back there.
Leena: (blushing) Thank you.
Snap: Um do you want to may..maybe have a drink with me later, tonight.
Leena: Sure.
Snap: I'll meet you at the bar.
Leena:Ok
Snap flies back to the boat where Trey and Seth stare in awe.
Trey: You are one of the ones in that story!??
Snap: No That was about my friends.
Seth: Man you were cool!
Snap: Thanks. (bends down) Seth Will you promise me you won't tell anyone about me?
Seth: Why??
Snap: If people knew about me I would have a tuogh time getting my job done.
Seth: Ok. But can I tell my friends that I saw someone in armor kill a dragon?
Snap: Sure. Just don;t tell them that person was me.
Seth: It wasn't. It was that girl Dragoon.
Snap: Good point. Promise me you won't tell.
Seth: I Pomise.
Snap: Ok. I'm sorry but I gotta go now, Trey.
Trey: Ok I'll drive you back to the port.
Snap: No need. You fish. I'll Fly back.
Trey: Ok.
Snap flies away and back to the hotel through the window. No body saw him. Back in the room he returns to normal.
Dart steps into the room. He sees Snap.
Dart: Hey, man where were you?
Snap: I went fishing and caught a dragon with the help of another Dragoon.
Dart: Reiko??
Snap: No a female Dragoon. One that you don't know.
Dart: Oh. What is her name?
Snap: Leena.
Dart: SNAP HAS A GIRLFRIEND!!!( Begins to sing the K-I-S-S-I-N-G song.)
Snap turns red. Not blushing, Angry!!
Snap: CUT THAT OUT!!
Snap Flies at Dart, tackling him to the ground and then begining to punch him countless times. Zeig enters the room and spots the brawling "Dragoons".
Zeig pulls Snap off of Dart. And then looks both of them over. Snap is uninjured, but Dart has so many black spots that if you put him next to a solid black wall you could not see him.
Zeig: (yelling Downstairs) I found Snap! And somebody bring me a bag of ice for Dart.
Rose and Shana enter. Shana with a Washcloth and a bag of ice. Zeig getures for Shana and Rose to take care of Dart as he and Snap left. Once outside, Zeig turns to Snap.
Zeig: What happened?
Snap: He said something and I snapped.
Zeig: Oh. Well after they get done with him, were heading to the Forest Of Winglies.
Snap:Ok
Rose and Shana exit. Dart comes out a minute later looking like nothing had happened. They all leave Furni and head into the Evergreen Forest. As soon as stey step inside a Venomous Rat attacks them. Dart takes care of it with a well placed Moon Strike.
They continue on into the dead end that hides the entrance to the Forest of Winglies. Snap raises his hand there and the barrier vanishes. They step inside. It looks just like it did eight years ago.
Dart: Not much changed here either.
Rose: Except this time we didn't get shot at as we came in.
Snap: Most winglies here have accepted a life with humans.
Zeig: Yes, in the near future they might even leave this forest and go out into the real world.
Snap: Maybe. Right now we gotta find Meru.
Zeig: Ye...ah......we.....gott.....a....
Zeig passes out. The others runt to him.
Dart: What's wrong, dad.
Snap: I'm gonna go find the elder. He can help.
Snap flies away using his blue wings. In the world outside he hardly uses them, he is afraid to use them. But here, he is free to do what he wants. He soon comes to the elder's tree top. He goes in and kneels before the elder's chair. The elder appears.
Elder: What is it you desire?
Snap: A friend of mine fainted at the entrance. I was hoping you could help him, sir.
Elder: I am having them brought here as we speak. Make yourself comfortable huwing.
Snap: Thank you, sir. My name is Snap.
Elder: Here they are.
Snap's friends are brought before the elder.
Dart: Please, elder you must save him. Please?
Elder: I will but to do so I must return his youth. He died because his old worn body could not handle anymore.
Dart: Return his youth?
Elder: Yes, I must give him back that that was stolen from him.
Dart: Ok please, elder?
Elder: (waving his hand over Zeig) It is done. I must ask you to leave while he rests.
Dart: Ok. Can you tell us where we can find Meru?
Elder: She is no longer in this forest. She has moved to Lohan.
Dart: (disappointed) Thank you, sir.
They leave as Zeig rests there. After about four hours Zeig comes out of the tent. He is alot younger. Looks about in his thirty's.
