It had been a few months since the secret had been let out. Autumn had arrived, bringing with it the colorful leaves that crunched under you feet.
School soon let out as Emmy, Max, Enrique, The Dragons and their friends decided got on the bus. Emmy had talked with the others and decided to hold a sleepover at her house. "So it's decided, we stay at Emmy's house for the weekend." said Piper. "Agreed." said everyone else.
*LINE BREAK*
The weekend arrived quickly and soon Emmy and Max's Frinds had come to their house by 1 in the afternoon. After they had unpacked and settled down for the evening, they began talking and chatting amongst themselves. Little did they know that Max and Emmy's parents were watching them play.
"They grow up so fast don't they?" asked a voice from behind them. It was Dusk. "What are you doing here?" asked The sibling's Father. "I just dropped by to see how the little ones were doing." Replied Dusk. "...Heh, They act just like you two did when you were in Dragonland." "Is it that obvious?" The sibling's mother joked. "I saw it the moment I met them."
"Be truthful Dusk, There's something we don't know about, isn't there?" said the father. "There is. Alex, Maria," Dusk began "I'm not going to lie, Your children, including their friends, are all in grave danger." "What do you mean?" asked Maria worriedly. "I mean what I have said. I don't know who or what will be responsible, but I suggest you keep a close eye on them." replied Dusk.
*LINE BREAK*
Meanwhile, The mysterious man had gotten word from his subordinate about what he had found out about the children. "And you're certain that it was the same energy that emanated from the scales we found." said the mysterious man. "Yes sir, the very same." replied his subordinate. "Excellent!" The man said as he turned to the computer. "Computer, locate the whereabouts of the energy using the new coordinates."
The computer soon completed it's scan and printed out various bits and pieces of data. "Perfect. I want you to gather my best men. Tell them to await my orders." Said the man as he laughed to himself.
"Soon, my plans will come to fruition." He said as he followed his subordinate. "And soon, I will be able to fix this broken world." He said with a malicious grin.
*LINE BREAK*
The Group of friends decided to sleep in the living room as to make sure everyone had room to sleep. As they got ready for bed, Don spoke up."I still can't wrap my head around it." "Around what?" asked Alice. "The fact that dragons are real, as well as other fairy tale creatures," replied Don. "If you think about it, it makes perfect sense. Almost every human culture has a story about dragons or something close to them." said Hugh.
"Well, Whatever happens, I'm just glad I have friends like you guys." Said Ord as He pulled them all into a group bear hug. He was blisfully unaware of the fact that he was squeezing the a bit too hard. "*urgh* Does he always do this Emmy?" asked Piper "Yeah, He*ouch* does it alot. Speaking of which..." Emmy looked up at Ord. "Ord, that's enough, you're squising us."
Ord let go and apologised. "Oops, sorry." He said. They all eventually began to fall asleep, Completely unaware of what was happening outside of their home.
*LINE BREAK*
A large surveillence van was parked outside of the house. Inside it was the leader and some of his best men awaiting his orders. "Troops are in position sir." radioed one of the soldiers. "Good. You may begin when ready captain." The leader replied.
"You heard him men." said the captain as he and his men pulled out some canisters of tear gas. "On the count of three. 1...2..."
