Hey! I know I haven't written a fanfic in a long time -_- and I finally posted this up if anyone can believe it or not. Chaos Valkyrie, I finally got this up ^^; about time no??? By the way, I forgot to mention to you before my cousin loves your LOD fic. Anyway, this is my first LOD fic in like two years and I actually think it is not bad. Sure the story seems lame but oh well!!! it's a start, later on new characters will be added and they are made by my friends and or family (cough none yet) and they deserve credit for themselves but blah! This story takes place a couple years after the game ended. A new evil arises (no surprise on my part ^^;) and the dragoons must fight again. But they don't do it alone. Yup i won't say more on that you can read on to understand that.

Disclaimer: I don't lod though I wish I did, it is sooo cool *giggles* all i own is myself! So there XP

Dragon Of Crystal

A sleepy brunette was awoken from her nap from a small handful of children prodding her foot with sticks. She stretched and yawned as the kids backed away a couple of steps. She rubbed her eyes slightly and look at each of them. " Why did you wake me from my nap?" She questioned debating whether to go back to sleep or not.

One child stepped forward and spoke shyly, " Shana and Dart sent us out to get you. They are looking for you."

The brunette stood up and stretched again. She was fairly tall, about the age of 16. She pat the child of the head and softly replied, in a half sleepy tone, " Well, you can tell Dart and Shana that I'll be there shortly."

The children ran off giggling in the general direction of which they came. It was about mid-afternoon, the time of day which she usually found a quiet spot near the forest in which to nap, or read a book. Seles was usually quiet about this time of day and year. Pushing the idea of climbing up a near by tree and going back to sleep away, she started to head toward the house in which she was asked to go to.

***

" Where is Asca, she said she was coming," Shana complained quietly as she seated herself in a chair.

" She'll come, she usually does," Dart answered reassuringly.

Slightly shaking her head, Shana looked back out the window to see if she could spot the girl. The brunette with bicolor eyes walked through the door and sleepily flopped down into the nearest chair ready to sleep again. " What do you want, I was just taking my nap," Asca whined with a slight moan.

" We thought you might wish to each lunch," Shana replied simply.

" Couldn't I've eaten after my nap?" Asca groaned.

Shana stood at a loss for words at the moment. Dart stood up from his chair and spoke, " Well, we thought it would be nice that since you are living with us that you wouldn't mind eating with us as well.".

Asca stopped and thought about Dart's words more carefully than usual. It was true, they did let her live with them, they were the only ones to except her. Painful memories of her life before she had met them began to race through her head. One struck hard enough that her head began to hurt that she had to clutch her head tightly to stop it from pounding. " Are you ok?" Shana's concerned voice echoed through Asca's mind.

Slowly dropping her arms and producing a very fake smile she replied, " Yes. Never better."

Shana slowly looked to Dart then back to Asca, they had something in common. They never wished to admit they were in pain or anything to make others despair. Then it accored to her, she was the same way. Shana thought back to when Dart had told her that she was beautiful and she never thought it was so. Shana's bright amber eyes gleamed, " Well, since your here Asca, why don't you eat lunch with us?"

Asca hesitated momentarily that answered with a small grin, " Ok."

***

After lunch, Asca had gone back outside towards the forested area of Seles. Shana was starting to was dishes and Dart gathered up whatever was left on the table. " Asca is a very sweet young girl," Shana commented as she laied a plate down.

Dart nodded in agreement to Shana's statement. Dart hesitated, just to gather his thoughts, he didn't know how to explain this in words. Making up his mind, he slowly began, " I sense," he hesitated double checking his words before going on, " this great power from her, one I haven't felt since we ended our time as Dragoons."

Shana looked over her shoulder at her husband and thought his words over carefully. Now that she gave it some thought, it was true, she had something about her that she hadn't felt since their time as Dragoons ended. " But she can't be..." Shana started slowly.

Dart shook his head, " How could she be? We were the only Dragoons, isn't that right?"

Shana slowly turned everything about her Dragoon knowledge, her feelings, the power level she felt from Asca, and anything else useful over in her mind trying to figure something out. Then it hit her. " I remember reading a legend about other dragoons in a book. Sometime before I was kidnapped and you left me behind to heal, and I felt I couldn't go on. But it was hard to understand..." Shana trailed off, not knowing what else to say.

Dart looked over at Shana, is what the legend states is true? It was with the original Dragoons, so wasn't it possible now? As Dart and Shana finished up with the dishes, Shana tried to remember the legend, and make sense of it.

***

Asca sighed as she stretched out across a branch in a tree. It was nice to be in the shade on such a nice day slowly drifting off into a peaceful sleep, she laied a hand upon a chain that hung loosely around her neck. It had been important to her since the day she was given it by her aunt. Sighing deeply Asca fell deeply into her peaceful slumber.

***

" The legend stated that they were called the Dragoons of the Souls. There were much more of them than us, and not knowing whether they will be our enemy or friend, we can't trust them until we know more," Shana concluded.

" But you think she is one?" Dart questioned his wife.

Shana nodded, it made perfect sense.

***

Asca was engulfed into the darkness surrounding her. Searching for something that might explain her surroundings, she spotted a girl ahead. She slowly turned toward Asca, her ice blue hair swaying gracefully. She looked the age of 16, much like herself. Her crimson eyes gave a faint sparkle of a kid's playful heart as she spoke, " Hello Asca."

Confused, Asca attempted to step forward to get more answers and stepped upon a stone. Taking another daring step forward she stepped onto another stone. Asca kept a fairly slow pace, trying to reach this girl that was ahead of her. " Who are you?" Asca questioned very puzzled.

The girl giggled, it was bright and cheerful, the darkness began to lift and the faint outlines of trees could b made out. " You will know in time," She giggled playfully, the child's sparkle in her eyes returned.

" But what do you want?" Asca pleaded for an answer that made sense.

The girl skipped happily around Asca and answered, " You are one of most important people Dart and Shana will meet on the start of their journey."

" You know Dart and Shana?"

The girl stopped skipping, her smile started to fade slightly then it went very bright, " Of course I know Dart and Shana, they were always fun to spy on!" She giggled and did a nice little twirl letting her long hair sway and twirl around her.

" But that still doesn't make sense, one the most important people they will meet?" Asca again questioned.

The girl sighed and stopped skipping and dancing. Her face grew serious and her tone followed as well, " Something is coming again, you must understand that you are what they need to destroy it. You won't be alone, many will join you on your journey in time, and we will meet again.".

Asca tried to scream out her questions but her voice seemed gone, the girl ahead of her began to fade.

***

Asca awoke in her tree where she had fallen asleep. It had grown dark, sleepily she started to rub her eyes. The dream made no sense. Who was that girl? What did she mean important... it all just lead to more questions. Knowing Dart and Shana wanted her back soon she headed back.

***

Asca slowly opened the door to see Shana fixing up the last of dinner and Dart setting the table. Asca slumped down into a chair as she let Dart and Shana finish up. Shana piled the supper she had prepared on each plate and then herself and Dart sat down as well. Asca was fairly quiet during her meal that night, deep in her thoughts trying to make sense of her life up until that dream. After dinner Asca offered to do all the dishes and let the other two sit quietly in the flickering firelight. Asca finished up her task and joined the others in the other room in the firelight.

***

In bed Asca was in her deep, uneasy, slumber. The clouds that had covered the moon's silver light had left the night's sky. The silver moonbeams poured into Asca's room. Turning over, Asca's chain became fully visible to the moon's light. A black cross with the cut out of a crescent moon laied next to a colorless orb. All the moon's light concentrated into one thin beam and hit the orb. Asca let out a deafening scream as it seemed to strike her painfully. Her screams never seemed to reach anyone's ears. Rolling onto the floor off her bed, Asca clutched her chest panting heavily. The moon beams went back to normal as the black clouds that covered the moon before returned and sent the entire sky black again. The orb on the chain was now a silver black color and dimly glowed with a silver light as it left Asca to her pain and suffering.

***

Screams from outside woke up the three inside. Asca peeled herself off the floor as she quickly changed. Dart and Shana were already downstairs, changed peering out the window when Asca had come down the stairs. Dart was gripping the handle and a sword as Shana held a bow tightly in her gloved hands. Asca stepped up and peered out the window as well. Many were running and screaming, their reasons seemed unknown... at first. Animals that resembled imps chased off the people, destroying what they could in their path. Without warning, Asca took off toward the door, but to her surprise, Dart and Shana had made it there first. Dashing out the door, they entered the imp filled streets. They started the fight, Asca used a long sword with a dull brown hilt, Dart used his sword as Shana shot arrows from behind. Asca took off in a different direction that had her trapped in a corner from the imps. There were too many for her to fight off on her own. A voice in her head called awaken, awaken now. Asca's eyes widened and went very dull and lifeless. A silver light engulfed her body, Asca head felt like it was going to implode. As the light cleared, as stood there, not as herself, but as a dragoon. She had an black skirt, over top laied blood red armor trimmed in silver. She wore boots that were black trimmed blood red and silver, the right one ending the middle of her calf and the other the middle of her thigh. The top was black armor the looked similar to a tube top, it was trimmed in silver with blood red weaved around it. From the middle of her palm to three quarters up her arm she wore armored gloves in blood red trimmed in silver laced with black around it. In her right hand she held her sword, silt hilt, the blade glowing. Her left hand seemed to be in flames, a silver flame around her hand, every so often flickering red or black. Her wing were similar to the other dragoons, it was trimmed in black, the inside was silver and seemed to drip blood. Raising both her hands toward the sky, all the imps were set on fire, many died, others ran. Shana and Dart ran up to this new dragoon, shocked from the idea. The dragoon faced her friends, her brown hair streaked silver blowing in the wind. " I am the dragoon of crystal, dragoon of the moon and destruction," The dragoon spoke fluently.

Dart and Shana nodded as the dragoon turned back into Asca. Drained from the newly gained power, Asca fell to her knees, then fainted.
