Author's note: Okay, I know I was asked how they became dragoons; this is
the chapter that tells you. One of my favorite chapters that I have written
so far, it explains why Lloyd and Saria are so different from other
winglies, why they are not NORMAL.
Also I was asked when Carrol and Saria get together, since it was kind of obvious that they do. I won't tell you when, but he breaks down and cries when someone tells him that she is dead. (No I won't tell you when, where, or how she dies; or even if.)
Oh yeah I sort of had a mistake in my earlier chapters, when I said Saria's eyes were pure silver I didn't mean that it was completely sliver, just that the colour was silver and that was all. Not like a sliver tint they are sliver.
Disclaimer: I do not own LOD (unfortunately) or anything about it.
Claimer: I do however own; Saria (Tyra), Carrol, Nathan, Zelldore, and Karen.
Chapter 6:
Flash Back
" I've done it!" A voice called through the darkness. A voice that Carrol did not recognize, but Saria did Carrol noted as he watched a tear roll silently down her check. He didn't want to watch her in pain, so he put his full attention on the now dimly lit scene before him.
" Done what?" A young woman replied she looked around the age of twenty-nine, but she was a wingly with wise eyes, that looked hundreds of years old.
"They are my parents." Saria told Carrol in a sad tone, Carrol was tempted to do something to ease her pain, but it was to both of there surprise when he picked up her hand and held it in his own.
"Karen come and see this!" Nathan shouted up the stairs to the room where Lloyd sat with his mother reading a book, and Saria was learning how to dance, doing quite well too. Karen got up out of her chair, but Lloyd tugged on her sleeve, " What is it Lloyd?" She asked her son sweetly.
"Can we all go down me Zelldore, and Tyra?" He asked her doubtfully. She took a moment to decide.
" You can all come down if you ask, properly. Is that alright?" She asked and Lloyd nodded.
"Could Zelldore, Saria, and I come down with you please?" He asked in a curt tone of voice and his mother nodded. So Lloyd and Saria raced down the stairs (Lloyd won of course), while his mother and Zelldore walked down quietly talking about education. OF ALL THINGS!
"Thank you again for this arrangement that you have come up with!" Zelldore told her for about the millionth time.
"It is no problem, they need to know how to dance, and you deserve a good education, it works out fine." She told him sweetly.
"This is incredible, I am around as strong as Melbu Framah himself!" Nathan told her when she caught up with the children.
"Well hope that you aren't as stubborn him!" She retorted as she took a look at the vile that he was holding.
"Do you want some?" Nathan asked his wife as her continued to stare at the vile that he was holding.
"No, I have no desire for power, but the children may have some." She told him ripping her gaze off of the vile and urged the children forward. "Zelldore, aren't you having some?" She asked in her sweet voice but he sock his head. Saria and Lloyd stepped forward to watch their father.
Carrol noticed for the first time that Lloyd looked almost exactly the same as he did now, except for his height of course. On the other hand Saria was completely different. Her hair was platinium purple like Lloyd's was, and her eyes were garnet, she had been normal once, he noted.
"Drink this." Nathan told them.
Lloyd drank it quickly a looked disgusted " It tastes like cabbage!" He warned Saria as she brought the cup to her lips and started to drink it she nodded to show Lloyd that he was right.
"I feel funny." Saria looked up at her mother who gasped in shock as she saw her daughter who now looked like the Saria that Carrol knew. Zelldore rushed forward and caught Saria as she fainted into his arms and spoke one word. "Thanks"
The memory faded and new memories were starting to appear, they were in a deserted city with a strange glow and oddly enough it seemed they were underwater.
"Welcome to Aglis, my home." A man's voice broke the silence.
"That is Savan, I live with him in Aglis now." Saria explained Carrol nodded and loosened his grip on her hand without making eye contact.
"This is where the two of you well learn how to use stronger magic Savan will take you under his wing and teach you for the next two years." Nathan told them as he nudged them gently through the archway. "I am so sorry that I invented this stupid serum, and my family has to pay for my ignorance! Here take it, and keep it safe." He said as he handed the vile with a cork in it to Saria who soul melded with it.
Saria hoped off of her father's shoulder and landed gracefully on her feet. She turned to face him with tear filled eyes. "You have to come back in or before two years, like you promised!" She told him fiercely.
"Yeah or I'll run away from this . place!" Lloyd said threateningly and as a result his mother let out a gasp of surprise.
"Lloyd Cronon. If you do, I'll never forgive you." Karen was obviously stressed out about leaving her children alone with a man that only Nathan knew.
"Karen, we have to go. now give them their gifts and we have to go before he finds us." Nathan told her, with a stern, and yet still understanding tone. Karen took out two necklaces and handed them to her children hugged them and stepped back.
"These will increase your mental link ten fold, or so we hope, good bye." Karen reluctantly ripped her gaze off of her children and turned to follow her husband out.
This sad memory also faded as a new one came quickly to replace it, this time it was still the same place. Time had passed however Saria's hair was longer than it had been, and both of them were taller.
"Don't do it, please don't leave me here alone, I don't want to be alone!" Saria's pleading voice was heard. "Please don't run away, give them a month they'll be here!" She tried to reason with him, but it was futile, he had long ago made up his mind.
"They promised to be here a month ago, I feel like a lab rat here. I am no rat, I am leaving." Lloyd didn't think that he was getting through to her, but he was.
"What are you two doing?" It was Savan's voice that echoed through the city.
"Please Saria open the barrier?!" Lloyd asked her as he heard footsteps start at a hurried pace, he knew Savan would only take about five minutes to get to them.
"Why so you can abandon me too?!" Saria had lost her temper as she screamed at her brother.
"Listen, I'm not abandoning you." He tried to explain as he held on to her shoulders he forced himself to stare into her silvery eyes.
"I don't want you to leave.." Saria said quietly.
"Then come with me!" Lloyd knew that she wanted out, she didn't like this place either.
"I. I can't I have to listen to Mother, and she said to wait here." She said doubtfully, "But I want to leave, I hate this place. I don't know what to do." She said as calmly as she could, she was anything but calm and it showed when she fell to the floor crying. She was only nine, but still was proud. She didn't want Lloyd to see her like. This but it was too late and she couldn't stop. She looked up into Lloyd's face to apologize but was to surprised to say anything. Lloyd was crying too, and he dropped to the floor next two her, the two just sat and cried.
However when the lights all flashed off and on again at least twice as bright as they had been. This drew their attention away from their tears and onto the now swirling lights and shadows, which formed two perfectly round orbs that floated about three feet off the ground. Lloyd walked over and was about to grab it when it morphed, it was still and icy dark colour, but now it was now shaped like an ancient sword. Despite the fact that he was shocked he still grabbed on to the handle, Saria did the same to her sword it felt hot in her hand, it almost burned them. The two swords glowed for a minute one black, one white, when the glowing stopped; they noticed that each sword had a jewel set in them.
Saria reached out to touch the opal set in her sword, as soon as she laid a finger on it there was a blinding flash, Saria started to glow as she was lifted from the ground there was a rush of feathers as wings enclosed around her. Then an opal coloured liquid appeared and fell over the wings of light they opened revealing a very bright light as Saria walked out on to the liquid before it dissolved. She stood in opal/white amour. She cocked her head to the side and watched in awe as Lloyd transformed.
Lloyd started to glow black as a large energy ball formed around him with a few bolts of black electricity coming out from it. The light was blinding even though it only lasted about three seconds, when the lights dimmed Lloyd was revealed in black dragoon armor that reflected other colours as well.
"This sword is really light. Not to mention cool, I am going to name it. got any ideas?" Lloyd asked as he took in the true beauty of the sword that he was holding. (I can't describe it so just picture the dragon buster).
"It could be Ferine?" Saria asked him quietly.
"It is! Ferine; dancing flames, I like it." Lloyd exclaimed as he took a glance at his sister who was holding two daggers. "Hey! How did you do that?" Lloyd asked amazed as he saw that the daggers were made of the same stuff as the sword she had been holding. Saria shrugged as she tried to put her thoughts to words.
"I just thought to myself that I would prefer daggers. I think." She tried to explain, but it wouldn't come out. " I name it Sariaen, dancing water."
Another flash of light caught their attention as they turned to see two baby dragons appear out of nowhere. An opal and onyx dragon both crawled slowly to their new masters and to the dragoons great surprise spoke to them.
"We" The onyx dragon spoke up. "Are here to protect the two of you, you are the onyx dragoon of death, sorrow and fear and you..." He said as he turned to face Saria. "You are the opal dragoon of life, joy and hope. We are your dragons, you may name us if you wish."
Lloyd turned to his dragon. " Your name is Derne, is that alright?" Lloyd's dragon now named Derne nodded in agreement.
"You are Opa if you don't have a name already. Do you?" Saria asked her new friend.
"Believe me Saria of the life, we were just born when you let your emotions seize you." Opa finished curtly.
"Since when are the two of you blessed with the power of the dragoons?!?" It was Savan; he had finally caught up with them at the gate. "What are you two doing?" He demanded as he saw that the two of them wink and nod.
"Lloyd and I are running away!" Saria told him, and his mouth dropped at what she said, it had always been Lloyd to run away. Never not once had Saria even mentioned it as an issue. Lloyd grinned and open and toothy grin at her.
"That's the sister that I know and love! Welcome back, Savan meet Tyra, the spunky part of Saria!" Lloyd exclaimed as he watched Savan's jaw drop even more then it had a moment before. "Don't touch her!" Lloyd hissed at Savan how ignored the warning and stepped forward to grab Saria's wrist.
"If you leave Zelldore and Graham will have a race to claim you and you know it!" Savan shouted and it echoed through all of Aglis.
Saria turned and glared at Savan for a minute, and the glare that he received was unbearable especially under those silver eyes. "Let go of me old man!" Saria warned him, but he kept his grip firm. Well at least until Lloyd took his sword and slashed under his chin. Savan clasped a hand to his chin to slow the bleeding.
"We're through Lloyd." Saria said as she hoped onto Opa's back. Lloyd and Derne flew through first, then Savan grabbed her wrist again.
"Savan I'm going with Lloyd!" Saria shouted at him.
"I know that, but go to Bale and get the best knight there to protect you, do you understand?" He asked her kindly. She nodded her head and waited for him to finish before she left. "And beware of your new swords, they are soul shards. Even more powerful then Melbu Framaha's dragon buster, they have that effect on all living and dead creatures. Make sure that the soul buster works for you, and that you don't work for it." He warned her in his normal kind tone.
"Later!" She said as he let go of her wrist. She then healed him, stuck out he tongue at him and took off.
"Will I ever understand those two?"
These memories also faded however there was no new one that came to replace it this time. They went back to that black abyss where it had all started.
"Why did you stop?" Carrol had recovered his voice.
"I'm sorry, some memories are fresh and still hurt to think about let alone share. Plus I still have to show them to Lloyd." She told him as the lights began to return and focus and they found themselves back in the real world.
"So how was it?" Lloyd's voice rang out as Carrol stopped reviewing over what he had just seen.
"Interesting, the dragoon of death, sorrow, and fear?" Carrol replied, but regretted it because of the glare that Lloyd sent over to Saria.
-You showed him that? - Lloyd started
-Yeah why do you have a problem with that? -
-No I guess not-
-I didn't show him about Mom and Dad though-
- Good -
AND SO THE CHAPTER ENDS!!!!!!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! I know that sucked, but if you read it please review, I'm not afraid of the FLAMES so review any review please. I NEED INPUT! Buh bye
