"How far into the beginning?" I asked not really sure if I could trust him.
"As far as you want," the man replied. I think Mortis was his name but I'm not to sure.
"Well," said Cornelia her voice sounded cold, "Caleb here led us through a portal that brought us here. And know what he then disappears leaving us alone!"
"What?" cried Caleb, his voice scared me. I had heard him angry before but not like this. This…this was different. "What do you mean I led you trough a portal? It was you who led me!" He then let of a volley of meridian curse words, well I think they were, leaving us all shocked.
"Calm down," it was that man, Mortis "What led you through those, portals as you put it was not your friends."
"Then what was it?" Irma demanded crossing her arms.
"A form of Dragon Magic." Mortis replied, 'I wonder why he is so calm all the time' I thought.
"This world as you know is heading for war and it needs your help to stop it." Mortis continued.
We then became silent.
'What? Why do we need to help stop their war?' I thought 'We already have to save the world in our time.'
Then Irma spoke up "What do you mean you need our help don't you have Guardians in this time?"
Mortis shook his head. "No, Irma we don't."
Caleb and us girls stared at Mortis.
"What do you mean?" I finally asked, "thought there was always going to be Guardians?"
Mortis again shook his head. "In the last war five girls came from the past to help the Dragon Booster. If I do remember correctly during my time as a dragon priest in training one of my elders said that the first Guardians of the Dragon were from Heatherfeild."
We all stood there in shock. 'Heatherfeild our home but if that was the case it was probably-'
"My grandmother was here?" Hay Lin said "But she never told me?"
Irma then put her arm around Hay Lin's small shoulders and tried to comfort her.
"Wait a minute," said Taranee "Hay Lin remember how your grandmother told us that story maybe she could have meant this?"
"Maybe," Hay Lin mumbled. I could tell see was very sad along with the rest of us. Hay Lin's grandmother had told us about our powers and gave me the Heart of Candracar. It was hard on all of us when she died but it hit Hay Lin the hardest.
The next thing that happened surprised me along with the others. Mortis bent down on one knee and looked Hay Lin in the eyes. "I know your pain. What it feels like to lose a loved one especially one who is very dear to you. But the best thing to do is remember them and keep their memory alive."
He then raised himself up off the ground and turned towards Taranee and said, "Can you tell me this story as you would put it."
"I'm not sure if I should," Taranee replied "It was Hay Lin's grandmother who told it to us." Then turning to Hay Lin she asked, "Do you want me to tell the story?"
Just a little note I'm going to be making up a story here. So don't get mad at me if it doesn't completely fit in with Dragon Booster.
Hay Lin shook her head, whipped away her tears, and whispered, "I will." Then she started. "There once was a time when dragons walked the earth. The humans and dragons got along very well until the humans started breeding the dragons for specific uses. Yet unknown to the humans was the fact they were also changing. Changing from the beings of gold, to beings tainted by the elements. Soon there were many different types, found under many different empires. The strongest was the empires of Fire, Earth, Energy, and Darkness.
After time these empires started to fight each other for power, land, and resources. The war continued for some time before the dragons revolted and started to fight the humans. The world needed a hero and he came in the form of a teenaged boy chosen by the last of the pure dragons. They fought side-by-side to try to stop the war but it was know use they needed help. So they went to see a magician. This magician offered the young hero a form of magic that would bring him help from another time. The teen was desperate and agreed. So the magician performed the magic and brought five girls and dragons from another time to them. Those five girls controlled the elements. Not in the same way the other people of that time did but a way long forgotten. These girls were the Guardians of the Dragon. They controlled the four basic elements of Fire, Water, Earth, Air and Energy.
They helped the young hero by going to the four most powerful empires. One to each for time was short. The Guardians were able to convince the empires to help the young hero. Then the last pure dragon and his rider turned all the dragons and humans back into their pure selves. Then when the Guardians had to leave they told the hero that if they ever needed their help all he had to do was ask and they would come. Their Dragons then were put into a deep sleep from which only their elements can wake them."
After Hay Lin was finished we just stared at her before Mortis spoke.
"I think we should tell the others," he said, "Will one of you go and get them?"
"I will," said Caleb, "I have to go any way. Phistus is expecting me to be at the Council meeting."
Caleb then turned and left.
Sorry it took so long for such a short installment but I have been very busy. With school work and recovering. I will try to write as often as I can but schoolwork is my number one priority (actually Math and English are). Well if you didn't notice I wrote the story from Will's point of view. Also I would like to know if there are any pairs you want to see happen if any. Also I want to know if I should bring in any more characters from W.I.T.C.H. or if you want to see any specific Dragon Booster characters come into play ex. Propheci, Word Paynn, Stewardd etc.
