Hiezen: thanks to those who reviewed…I was informed that I was the 1st to put Francis in a fanfic (we wonders if that's true) if so then wow…it's really hard to keep both Francis and Agent Epsilon in character…thanks again everybody!

Shuriken's thoughts

Naomi's thoughts

o. 7 .o

o. Strange Reunion .o

I spotted Shuriken, he was held in place by large metal chains. There was no source of light, where the chains were attached to, was impossible to decipher in the dark room. Though I could only make out Shuriken's silhouette I could tell he was hurt, he seemed thinner too. I was about to step into the room but Munya pulled me out.

"Tsk, tsk, you have to prove your alliance to me first," Argost looked at me with disapproval, his voice echoed eerily I the arched room. A growl echoed in response only it was weak like if a lion cub was trying out its new roar only to hear a meow instead.

"What do you want me to do?" my voice full of disgust, I glared at the ground.

"Well…" Argost had sounded surprised, but when I looked up at him he let his voice trail off. "I did not think you would agree so easily," Argost continued.

"And you know me that well, how?" I muttered not expecting a reply.

"I've watched you," Argost replied coolly. I cringed mentally. It was creepy if a person was watching you but if Argost watched you…than well it was way beyond creepy. A long hissing, hiccupping noise came from the adjoining room. This I knew was Shuriken laughing, apparently he had heard what I was thinking. The problem was how?

I felt something hit my head, only it increased the intensity of the head ache I had. When I looked down I spotted a backpack with the Saturday insignia on it. (AN: the backpack Zak had in the second episode.) I glared at Munya than I looked to see if anybody had discovered the egg stored inside. I only found shattered pieces of…glass?

It was an egg but because your head fell on it and shattered it…

Wait a minute Shuriken was speaking right into my head usually I had to talk out loud to him then he spoke to me.

Excuse me? But if you're done with this insignificant rambling…

Wait I was speaking out loud?!

Will you let me finish my sentence?! And no you were not speaking out loud…but the-Argost-cat-creature has noticed… what do humans call it? ...ahhhhhh, an awkward silence…

I met Argost's gaze and tried to form a sentence.

"Argost…sir?" I waited for him to acknowledge me, he nodded, "can I talk to my dragon?" I hoped he didn't notice my over politeness.

Argost turned and left but Munya stayed near the hall entrance, great, but at least creepy-Argost was gone.

You only use that tone when you were at your fake-sire had you pinned down...like the no strawberry-ice-cream-before-sleep-time-rule?

Hey were in his house he has who knows how many cryptids…and what were you saying about the egg?

Trying to change the subject? Fine, the hatchling sacrificed itself to protect you.

What?!!

Will you not scream, even if you are not screaming out loud your mental screams are worse!

How can an unborn baby dragon know I was falling?

We are not helpless like humans; we know our surroundings even in our shellssssssssss…hum.

"Hum, hm!" I turned to see Munya doing a really bad fake cough. I sighed my time with Shun was up.

Before you leave with the Munya-bug tell him to bring me a cow.

I repeated Shuriken's request to Munya, he only lifted his eyebrow and nodded.

Also watch the Argost-cat-creature. Your-not-sire did not want you to meet him for a reason.

Am I detecting a hint of jealousy?

I was not the one flaunting herself in front of the Saturday-boy.

Flaunting? What's that supposed to mean?

I heard Shuriken's chuckle. He replayed the scene of my hug with Zak. I felt my face get hot. This only caused him to laugh…the rough sound of what seemed to be rocks grinding against each other (Shun's laugh) caused Munya to jump

The rest of today was going to be a long day.

(AN: I was going to end it here…but I was dissatisfied)

-(Dinner?)-

"Munya told me of your dragon's request?" Argost paused cut the steak that was in his plate then looked up at me.

"Yeah," I paused, "he eats about three cows a week," He gave me the are-you-serious-look. I looked down at my own food (steak and potatoes), than down the long oak table that stood between Argost and me.

Argost was sitting across from me there were about twelve other seats that could be occupied on each side of the table. The dining room *cough*dungeon*cough* was long rectangular it was lit only by torches. There was another table made of the same material as the one that Argost and I shared only it was round and only had one chair, the chair was occupied by Munya. He seemed angry, but who knew why.

Child, I believe the human-manner-code says you have to eat what your host offers you.

Wait you were spying on me?

How can I? But listening to your mind is fun. Do you think when your mind goes blank?

Blank? What's that supposed-what does that mean?

You survey your surroundings as if you were a dragon hatchling not a human-hatchling.

It's a habit that has grown because I lived with two…okay one crazy man, a certain wild-orange haired jack-of-all-trades and an oversized fire-breathing lizard. Also stop changing the subject so fast!

Ha, ha, ha…why aren't you eating?

I think the food is poisoned…

"It's not poisoned," I found myself stabbing my stake when I heard Argost speak up.

"Ahh, was I speaking out loud?" I seriously hoped not.

"No but you did say 'food and poisoned'," he smiled at me again. "You are very precautious."

"Thanks?"

"Most would just dig in," he paused, "and they would meet their doom, but you dear are special." See that's still creepy, and hard to get used to.

"Why? Am I special," I felt like he had explained this before.

"Not now, eat up then got to bed," with that he turned around back to the only entrance and disappeared. His food gone, man he ate fast!

See he is weird…

Weirdworld.

Oh, wow…now it makes sense.

-(end ch.7)-

Hiezen: sorry for not updating. Also I realize this chapter might not make sense (I was half-asleep) and though there is no action (there will be…but I have to set it up in the next few chappies) I needed to develop Naomi and Shuriken's relationship and to go into more detail and explain things…also how do you see how many hits your story has gotten? Anybody? Know anything? Also i had fun poking fun at movies and Argost)...and Argost is hard to keep in character..
