THE YOUNG PRIESTESS

Later in Old City, Sakura and Moonlight were entering into a sanctuary, more precisely the Dragon Priests' one.

"I'm here" she announced.

"Welcome back young Sakura" one of them said, walking toward her, he was their leader Tannis.

"Great first race young girl" another one said, congratulating with her.

"Thanks Alexander" that was his name, Sakura knew everyone of them.

Their names were: Tannis, their leader, Alexander, Kinboshi, Soryo, Ryu, Kodai, Seido, Raifu, and Shinzo.

There were 9 male priests and then there was her, a young girl, but not for this didn't mean she didn't know anything.

They told her everything about the many legends and secrets of Dragon City, they taught her every ancient technique, she was kind of young priestess herself, but no one could ever think anything like that, she was just beyond any suspicion.

Not only because she was young, but because the priests were the only ones who still used and preserved the rarest kind of draconium, gold, and she used the exact opposite color, black.

They saved her form death years ago and raised her like she was their child, they gave her all that she needed, and now after years of training she was ready to return to Dragon City once more.

There was only one reason she trained so hard, the reason she lived for, revenge.

"By the way I think Word Paynn recognized me" she said.

"I didn't think he would have done it so soon" Soryo was surprised.

"Don't forget, he's a smart man" Shinzo noted.

"Yes, and he already tried to capture me using his stupid wraiths" Sakura informed.

"You're not hurt right?" Kodai asked her.

"Of course not" she said like it was an obvious thing.

"We're just worried, you know what..." Ryu began

"... will happen to you if you push your body too much, I know, and I know my limits" the white haired girl finished the sentence.

"You know what in state you are, be careful from now on" Tannis said, clearly worried.

"Yes I promise" she rolled her eye.

"Good" he replied.

"What's that thing on Moonlight back?" Seido asked curious.

"Oh, it's only the secret of the wraith dragons" Sakura replied giggling.

"Great discovery, we'll examine that later" Raifu congratulated.

"Why later?" she asked confused.

"Because now you need to train for the next race, that one isn't like the one you faced today, it's called the gauntlet, you must complete it in the shortest time possible avoiding all the obstacles in it." Tannis explained, Sakura nodded and she and Moonlight prepared to the training.

After the training she decided to visit Stewardd, the Keepers leader, to make him examine the gear and maybe make something useful for her.

It wasn't the first time he did something for her, he was a friend of the priests so even a friend of her, he knew her story and built her special weapon and also sometimes he gave her his gears.

She rode for about 10 minutes and she arrived at the Keepers cave, she entered and asked for Stewardd, he greeted her and Moonlight warmly.

"Stewardd I have something for you" her dragon magged the gear into her hands.

"Ooh make new things" he said excitedly as he eyed the gear.

"Yes, but be careful ok? This is form a wraith dragon and we don't know how much it's dangerous" she explained.

"Yes I will" he nodded vigorously and returned to work.

She thanked him and left directed home, she and Moonlight needed to rest for tomorrow's training.


This is the third chapter :)

I think I have some explaining to do, first I invented all priests' names, excluding Tannis, and these priests are the one of the priests' sanctuary for the episode The Eye of the Dragon, second I'll explain the choice of these names:

Alexander is a name I always liked

The others are translations of words in Japanese:

Kinboshi means golden star

Soryo means priest

Ryu means dragon

Kodai means ancient

Seido means temple/sanctuary

Raifu means life

Shinzo means heart

I hope you like them ^^
