dragonelf 8: Where did everybody go? T.T

Chapter 15: Metal Dragon Knight.

Lero paced his way through the Forest surrounding the dragon castle. It had been two days since Ryu decided to leave the castle and look for the dragon's treasures. She had informed the Dragon Lord, as was to leave in three more days form now, along with the company of Rath, Rune, Thatz, and Lero all of whom had insisted on going or was asked by Lykouleon to guide her, but Ryu had a few more things to take care of before she went traveling throughout all of Dusis. 'This is going to be difficult, especially since Metal hasn't chosen, and we have no clue that the other dragons belong to,' thought Lero as he walked in the forest in his full wolf state.

'Crush.'

Lero ears pricked up as the sound of crushed grass reached his ears. It smell was definitely human but none he recognized and the aura coming form the noise was, dark, full of sadness, and hatred. Not something that was desirable to come across anywhere, especially if it was in humans, and demons.

"So you're the chosen's wolf's son."

Lero watched as figure appeared out of the shadows of the brush, a dark blue dragon was wrapped around his neck, matching the color of his hair, he wore long black robes, and had a wolf's eye in his right socket.

"Darcia!" cried Lero in surprise.

Lero could feel his fur bristle a few seconds after the shock of it, his ears lay back on his head as snarled, and growled at Darcia. Although he never met the man he knew all too well thanks to paradise. A man worth the pity of the world.

"What are you doing here, you're suppose to be dead," snarled Lero sharply.

"Time and space run differently in worlds," said Darcia stroking the dragon on his shoulders head.

Lero's attention snapped instantly to the little lizard. It was Ice Dragon, but why was she with Darcia? Lero quickly put two and two together not like it took much effort on his part.

"So your Ice's master. Not a wise decision in my opinion," growled Lero, Ice twitched slightly but otherwise was silent.

"I was as surprised as you are. I became a knight and now not only am I a wolf, but dragon runs through my veins now, but I have no intention of helping this so call king of dragons," said Darcia coldly as though Lero hit a raw nerve.

"What are you doing here!"

"To see this Ryu Kami, I keep hearing about. Her brother has been dieing to see her."

"You won't lay a single finger on her!"

Lero lunged at Dracia as fast as he could manage. Ice flew into the air as Dracia reverted to his wolf state. Dracia rushed at Lero, teeth extended, ready to tare away any flesh. Lero could feel a small clump of his fur being ripped away form his shoulder.

"So, son of the chosen wolf, do you have a name?" asked Dracia still in his wolf state as he spat out the clump of fur.

"Lero."

"Lero huh? You look like your father, but smell like your mother. Who'd have imagined a Wolf and a Flower half breed," mocked Dracia.

Lero growls deepen in hatred. Dracia rushed at Lero again, but this time faster than before, as he began pummeling Lero to the ground. Lero lay on the ground blood seeping out of a few scratches; Dracia reverted back to his human state as Ice returned to his shoulder.

'Done,' asked the dragon.

"Yeah, I just want to find out what was causing the scent of lunar flowers. We'll see this Ryu Kami later," muttered Dracia as he walked away.

"Darn it," cursed Lero as he put up his illusion, showing what looked like a badly beaten man.

Lero wiped away some blood that was on his brow, licking the blood away the particles. Lero began licking the blood away from his arm and hand. 'Darn it, how am I going to protect Ryu if I get pummeled by a bigger wolf. Especially Dracia. This is not good, why'd the dragon have to choose that certain,' though Lero.

'I can help you with that.'

Lero snapped to attention looking all a round him. He then released that it wasn't a voice it was written words in his head. 'I've gone crazy,' thought Lero feeling a little nervous.

'You're not crazy. I'm talking to you telepathically well writing actually, through my post cards,' answered the words.

"Who are you?" demanded Lero.

'I'm Metal, and I've chosen you, Lero, to be my master,' answered the creature.

Lero watched as the earth split open and a huge dragon a rise for the ground, it's scales where a shining silver, with gold eyes shining bright. The dragon smiled down on Lero. Lero could feel his paws go up to his ears, which were now far pointer than they should have been, his teeth longer than necessary, a few scales where underneath his fur.

"Aw great just what I need. To be the Metal Dragon Knight," said Lero quietly looking at a proud Metal Dragon ensnaring his new master.
