 The Winds of Time

"No . . . It can't . . . happen . . . the future . . . No, it cannot . . .be . . ."

"Necro . . . Necro!!"

"Wahhh!!!"

"Ummm, you okay?"

Sub-conscious, Necro recognized the voice to be Bud's. Slowly, he was able to see them gradually as his eyes began clearing up.

"How long was I asleep? Yawnnn . . ."

Necro sat up to faced Bud and Lisa, his apprentices that he took in a few years back. Bud and Lisa were twin brother and sister, ages ten, both magicians in training. They were orphaned when they were younger. Since then, they wandered the streets of Domina, a nearby town until Necro took them in five years ago.

"It's been TWO days!!"

"No, it's three!! Your memory sux, I remember it to be three days ago!"

"What ya mean!"

"It's two! I counted! You know you're wrong and is just afraid to admit it!"

"Then you must have counted wrong! Cuz I remember he was asleep from Dryad Day till now. It's Aura Day today! Three days! . . ."

". . . Shuddup!"

Hehe. Chuckling, Necro walked downstairs away from the two annoying yet competitive twins. He was hardly down when he was tackled by a small, furry rabbit thingy; also known as a "Rabite".

"Ahhh!! Stop licking me!! Chokes. Help!! I'm choking on fur!!

Finally managing to push the Rabite off, Necro struggled to stand and immediately fell down when he was tackled by a miniature dragon, also known as a "Sky Dragon", behind him.

"I will never have pets ever again", thought Necro. "So annoying." Sigh.

"I guess you too are hungry, huh."

The two pets, Fira (Rabite) and Thundaga (Sky Dragon) nodded in reply.

"Oh, well. I'll go make some Pine O'Clock Pie for you two."

Turning, Necro shouted upstairs and asked if the twins wanted some pie. Obviously, they did, and so they gathered in the small orchard in the backyard to eat.

"Oh, yea, Pearl came by a day ago".

Necro choked in reply. Patting his back, Lisa continued.

"And so did Niccolo, Daena, and a lot more I dunno"

Finally managing to cough up the seed, Necro asked why did they all came. The twins shrugged and said that it was merely to tell him about some hovering thing in the Mana Tree. Necro choked again.

"Oh, and they told us to tell you to go to St. Mana Church in Domina when you wake up."

Turning, Necro stared at Bud before standing to run after and strangle him.
