Oo0oO
It was a normal, peaceful day in the Montana countryside. A soft wind, no clouds .peaceful. Then suddenly, several feet above a glade, a swirling vortex appeared. Out of the vortex first fell a golden haired boy. Then another, Asian boy, then two girls, then another, red-head boy, then, suddenly, a dragon. Unlike all the people (who fell), the dragon managed to keep herself up in the air, landing some distance from the people.
"Ow...What? Get off me!" The golden-haired boy demanded, from his uncomfortable position under the Asian boy.
What the hell .who are you? The Asian boy, Graves, asked, attempting to detangle himself from the golden haired boy, Jace.
Danielle, who landed next to the pair, stood up and brushed off her black jeans, her eye catching on the red-haired boy who had also just stood up. "...why are you wearing a tunic...and chain mail?"
Graves, who had finished detangling himself from Jace and had stood up, looked over at the red haired boy. Upon seeing the cloth tunic and chain mail, he burst out laughing. Chain mail? We re not in medieval times, dude.
Graves. Jules said reproachfully, attempting to hide her laughter. Don t make fun of the poor, unfortunate, obviously mentally deranged person. He can t help it that he s not all there. She trailed off, staring at the poor kid. I m Jules, by the way. You are? She asked, as if she hadn t just called him mentally deranged.
"My name is Jake, Jake Rider. And this is my dragon Yesednay." he replied as a giant, majestic, purple dragon landed near them and scaring all but Jake to death.
Everyone screamed. Jules was the first to react. She (after screaming) used her special powers to get Yesednay s shadow to stop obeying Yesednay and obey her instead. Had Jules been thinking about it, she would have been impressed. As it was, everyone else was impressed for her. She pulled the shadow off the ground and had it lunge at Yesednay, who was not expecting her shadow to attack her.
The dragon freaked out, trying to claw at her shadow to no avail. Instead she blew fire, scorching the ground and returning her shadow to its normal position. Then, just as Yesednay was about to lunge at Jules for a counterstrike, Danielle jumped between the two, thrusting her hands out to stop them.
"Stop!" she cried quickly, the dragon and girl skidding to a halt as they reached a hand. "We shouldn't be fighting."
What the hell is that? Graves asked, motioning or the beast.
It s a dragon, but dragon s don t exist. Jules said, backing away from Danielle and glaring at her.
I thought Christophe said you had a hard time controlling shadows that aren t yours. Graves said, raising an eyebrow.
I can control animal s shadows easier. Jules said disdainfully.
"Animal! Excuse me but she's more intelligent than you all think, in fact she's most likely smarter than you." Jake said pointing at Jules.
That is enough Jake we must befriend these people they are obviously heroes from other universes here to save this one. Yesednay said to her rider. Then to all,What he says is true I can speak and I may look ferocious but we are here to help this dying universe from the threat of evil. Then only to Jules, Don t do that again I prefer that my shadow be under my control.
Jules laughed. okay a talking dragon I think I can accept that Turning to Jake I like her.. motioned towards Yesednay But you what the hell? Where do you get off insulting my intellect, you moronic, simpleminded, witless cretin!
Jules.. Graves said warningly.
"Would you all just shut up and listen!" Jace yelled, frustration raging in his eyes. Everyone silenced, at least momentarily, and turned towards the golden-haired boy. "The dragon is right, we're all here for the same reason, to save this universe from the evil threat; which will be easier if we get along."
"Jace is right," Danielle agreed, sighing and throwing threatening glances between Jake and Jules.
He s right. We re here for a purpose, and we need to stop bickering amongst ourselves. Okay? Graves said, threateningly looming over everyone at his height of over 6 feet.
...fine. But really? A tunic? Nobody s gonna take you seriously in a tunic, kid. We need to get you normal clothes. And I m just gonna assume you don t have cash. Jules said, looking at Jake skeptically.
"I agree as well, with him that is because if you were to walk through Teirm in those clothes you would be the laughing stalk of the city. Although considering I'm no longer in Aglaesia it would probably be best for me to fit in and also we will need to hide Yesednay." then to Jules, "I do have what you call cash but where I come from we call it gold." Jake said as he pulled out a small pouch from a pocket in Yesednay's saddle bag.
Graves raised an eyebrow. We re teenagers. With gold, people are gonna assume we re thieves. Hell, if I hadn t just seen your dragon, I d think you stole it. Teens don t have gold. We have, He reached in his pocket, pulling out some paper money, cash. And change. Not gold. You try and get cash for that, someone will call the cops.
I think I might be able to help with the dragon," Jace began, stepping forward. "See, I can draw runes on myself that give me special abilities, like strength or bravery. There's also one for invisibility to mortals. Runes are supposed to work for shadowhunters but...dragons might work too."
Danielle turned towards Jace, fear in her expression. Runes only worked on shadowhunters, anyone else who received one turned into...
"Wait a second," Jake said seeing Danielle's expression, "What could happen if the rune doesn't work on Yesednay?"
Who cares? Not to be a bitch or anything, but really? If it works, then wonderful. If not, you re screwed, which works to. Jules said scornfully.
Jules, be nice. Jake, if you apologize for insulting her, she won t be a bitch. And you, Graves turned towards Danielle, what will happen if he uses the spell?
Danielle paused. "...Well runes are a shadowhunter's tool to make them stronger and better. While it's not meant to be a direct weapon, marking a human with a rune can turn them into a forsaken, a sort of mindless zombie. I don't know of any downworlder or other sort if creature being marked...but I assumed the result is the same."
"Yeah, I have a much better and safer idea," Jake said to Danielle and Jace ignoring Jules at this point, "With my powers that I was given when I became a rider I can turn Yesednay invisible."
Now that we ve come to a compromise. Jules said icily, Can we actually get introduced? I mean, I know she s Yesednay, and it s Jake, Jules said, nodding to Yesednay and waving at Jake, But what s you names? She motioned towards Danielle and Jace. I m Jules, by the way, and as you ve seen, I can control shadows. This, She motioned to Graves, is Graves, and he s a loupe-garou.
"He's Jace Wayland, a shadowhunter," she motioned to Jace. "And I'm Danielle Archer, and I have the power that whatever I draw become real."
The things you draw become real? Jules asked. I mean, it sounds cool in theory, but what if you re in the middle of a great battle? You can t exactly just stop and draw something.
Danielle crossed her arms. "It only takes a few seconds to get the basic sketch down, so it's not all that inconvenient. Also I forgot to ask, what's a loupe-garou?"
"It's a werewulf, without the fur. I have all the powers of the werewulfen, but I'm more advanced and don't actually have to be furry to be special." Graves said with a smile.
Yesednay only to Jake, Okay now greet them properly and you really should apologize to the one who took control of my shadow. If we are to work together i think it would be best that were all friends especially one with such powers. In reply, I guess you re right.
"It is a pleasure to meet you all." then to Jules, "And I am sorry for insulting you before it was out of anger for you attacking my friend. "Now to consult the matter at hand," he stopped for a moment noticing a drop of water on his head and decided to say something else, "getting out of this rain."
Jules nodded. Yeah, lets. And anyway, it s fine I understand you saying that. We probably made bad first impressions on each other. She shrugged. It s fine. No worries. We gotta be able to trust each other if we re gonna fight together, right? And yeah, we should get out of the rain we should go to the mall. Cause I wasn t kidding when I said nobody will take you seriously in a tunic and chain mail. You definitely need new clothes.
"Agreed," Danielle added, closely observing Jake's attire. "Now all we have to do is find a mall."
