Chapter 14 Excitement

"What is it?' Tawnya a bellowed. "Those eggs are a hatchin!" She replied as she rushed everyone out of the restaurant. They all dashed to her theatre and bounded to the lounge. They all looked at the nest a gasped. The striped and brown eggs were beginning to crack, while the square-ish eggs was already open, but they could not see where the dragon went. Blank ran over to the fireplace and scooped up the dragon that was sticking his nose really close to the fire. "Wow, it's pretty cute." Blank told looking closely at the red-orange creature. It was tiny and long with a large tail that included a triangle spike at the end. While Blank and Marcus were admiring that dragon, everyone looked over at the two others. The dark brown one wasn't going to quickly, but you could see part of a tail just like the other dragons, sticking out of the egg. The striped eggs was further in the process. It's legs and front of his head were popping through, as it forced it's other arm out you could start to see his small wings, and long lizard like body. The brown eggs was surprisingly almost completely split in half because the dragons body was all out besides it's wings. Soon enough it fell over and it's wings spread out. They were huge, much larger then the rest of it's body which was a light green shade. It shrieked as the other two dragons started playing with each other. "They are amazin!" Ruby exclaimed. The dragons yelped and screamed until Ruby figured they needed some food. She ran out of the room, and in a flash, she was back. She brought over a dish of fresh meat and gave it to the dragons. They bounded onto the plate and ripped the meat into shreds. "What are you going to name them Ruby?" Eiko asked her bending over the tiny dragons. "Well honey, I think the red one should be called sizzle, and the long lizard one should be, um...Dee, and the one with the large wings we could call Biggs." Ruby explained. "U...um...okay" Eiko replied. Ruby then picked up sizzle, Dee, and Biggs and noticed that on all of their tails their was that bright red spike jutting out of the edge. She gave them all some more meat and soon they became tired. She set them back down in the nest and brought them out of the Theatre. "Where are we going?" Garnet asked. "It's better that I keep these at my lil' home." Ruby answered leading them across the street. Soon they came to a small house and they entered it. "This is a nice house you have Ruby!" Garnet exclaimed while she looked at the decorated walls and the desks piled high of scripts for her performances. She led everyone to her bedroom and put the nest in a corner where they could not escape. But as she put them down Dee leaped onto her arm. "By golly, She's a quick one, ain't she." Ruby said as she put Dee back in her nest. Soon they all curled together and fell asleep.

Months Later...

As these months had passed, the Dragons grew and grew, Dee and Sizzle were the size of Eiko, but Biggs had not grown since he cracked out of his Egg shell. But there was one problem with all of the dragons. They were not very tame. None of them had manners, and Biggs still couldn't fly even though he had the largest wings. So finally they decided that a bit of training wouldn't hurt. "Hey, how are they doing?" Zidane asked as he entered Ruby's house picking up Biggs. "Geez, this guy is puny." He said putting Biggs up to his face. "Yeah, but he's a cutie." Ruby replied as she brought in Dee and sizzle. They both leaped over Zidane and began tugging on his pant leg. "Would you two girlies just quit it!" Ruby yelled at them. "Oh, it's alright." Zidane said. Soon Tawnya, Garnet, Eiko, and Quina walked into the house. "What I do? I help make them Gourmet Chefs?" Quina asked sniffing around. "No, but you can help them with training them not to bite us humans or somethin simple as that." Ruby told. So they put the three dragons together, and sure enough they started to wrestle. Ruby walked up to them and held a small piece of meat above their heads. Biggs stopped fighting and just smelled the air. While Dee and Sizzle were wrestling, Biggs noticing that she had meat, and He was jumping up trying to catch it. "We really need to teach him how to fly." Zidane said walking over to Ruby. Ruby picked up Biggs and put him on the counter. Then she took the piece of meat and put on a stool a couple feet away from the counter, then they just watched. Biggs then whipped his tail, and his eyes turned bright thinking of how that meat was going to taste in his mouth. He then took a long leap and tried to flap his wings. He failed and plopped on the ground. "Oh Biggs." Ruby grumbled. Ruby then split Dee and sizzle apart. She gave Sizzle to Zidane and Garnet and told him to go into the Kitchen and practice his magic. Then she Gave Dee to Tawnya and Eiko and told them to go in the lounge and train her to not bite. That's what she does best. So They went into the lounge with a couple pieces of meat. "Here girl." Eiko said holding a piece of food tightly in her hand. Dee could smell it and she began to try to bite Eiko hands. "No!" Eiko yelled. She put the piece of meat in Tawnya's hand, and then Eiko held her hand out to Dee. She leaped over to it and began licking all of the meaty flavor off of it. Garnet and Zidane walked into the Kitchen with Sizzle to discover what magic he had learned, if any at all. They new that every once in a while she would blow out puffs of smoke, but never seemed to get any fire. They set her inside of the sink, and a drip of water touched her feet. Zidane was surprised at the reaction of Sizzle, for she instantly blew out swirls and heaves of fire. Later on they also discovered of his Bio and Drain magic and some other magic Garnet and Zidane had never seen before. A couple hours later, after everyone was tired of training the Dragons, they all came together and talked for a while. "Well Biggs still can't fly yet, but he manages to begin flapping his floppy wings when he's goin for that chuck a meat." Ruby explained. "That's great, Well We didn't get to far either." Eiko and Tawnya stated. Garnet and Zidane then explained about the magic that Sizzle had learned and then they decided that they needed to go. So they left ruby's house and went to a place that Cid had constructed for them to Sleep until they decided that they wanted to move out of Limblum. It was quite a cozy place and after a long day they went to get some sleep for there next day of training the Dragons.
