Well we're back! Glad someone is happy Kathey is back (The Rag Lady) yup she's indeed back. We get a little insight on what happened while Kathey was gone (if I mess up facts, really sorry about that, I didn't watch 3b) I'll let you guys get on with it :)
"How much have I missed around here Scott?" I asked, nervous about whatever changes have happened here.
"I met a new girl. Kira," Scott said and I looked down at my hands, picking at a blister.
"Oh...that's nice Scott, I'm happy for you," I mumbled and knew it was too good to be true that he would wait for me. Oh well. "Listen, I need to find Tyler and get back to the apartment, you should come by sometime to hang out."
"I'd like that, see ya," Scott said and disappeared into the night. I sniffed out Tyler and found him in a tree, smiling up at him with my glowing blue eyes.
"Let's go wolf-boy, that was only Scott," I said and Tyler dropped from the tree. He had grown a lot in the few months we had been away. He was much more fit and didn't have a problem keeping up with me when running.
Soon as we reached home, I collapsed on my bed, Cloudwing jumping up next to me and curling up by my head. I smiled at her and I quickly fell asleep.
Morning came and I was ready for the day, only I wasn't going back to school yet. Too much had happened, I didn't need people remembering me. I did my usual workout and jog and came home to cook a really good breakfast for Tyler and myself and we sat around playing video games, something I haven't done in years, just relaxing with games.
It was probably mid afternoon when there was a knock on the door. I had been boiling water for soup and Tyler jumped up to answer it, Shadow on his shoulders.
"Scott! What's up man?" Tyler's voice echoed and I smiled a little. Tyler led Scott to the kitchen and I turned to face them.
"Finally decided to show up huh?" I teased and Scott smiled.
"Yeah, whatcha making?" he asked
"Soup," I said and poured the pasta and season mix into the pot, setting a timer.
After a few minutes I shut the heat off and called Tyler for soup, he and Scott had been playing games in the living room. All three of us sat down and chatted for a while until Scott's phone rang. He walked into the other and answered it.
"Hello? Hey Lydia. I'm uh...out, what's wrong? Its not really any of your business where I am. I'll tell you later, are you ok? You're what?! Where are you? I'll be there soon, don't worry." Scott hung up and came back into the room.
"Why wouldn't she call Aiden?" I asked out of the blue.
"I'll explain later, we need to go, Lydia is being held somewhere by giant scaly lizards, so she said," Scott said and I stood up.
"Stay here Tyler, if I'm not back by morning without a call, come find me," I said to Tyler who nodded. I followed Scott outside to where his motorbike sat and caught the helmet he tossed to me. I pulled it on and we sped off towards the preserve.
"Lydia didn't call Aiden because Aiden is no longer around, nor is Allison," Scott said as he slowed the bike and cut the engine.
"Because of the thing that caused me and Tyler to leave?"
"The Oni, yeah. Long story, I don't know if I can even talk about it..."
"I'm here to talk Scott, if you want to."
"Thanks Kat, let's go save Lydia now."
We headed towards the Hale house and right outside I could see what I didn't believe I was looking at.
Real life Dragons. Yeah I said it. Dragons.
"I really hope this isn't a hallucination," I mumbled to myself. The dragon that stood outside had green scales and I could tell the end of his tail had a club, it looked like a spiked ball. Around his neck was a necklace with a stone attached to it and some strange thing was surrounding it, like an orb.
Something clicked in my head and I suddenly knew who this dragon was, and I knew he wasn't alone.
"I know him," I whispered to Scott. "Somehow...I know him."
I started towards the Hale House and the dragon and he looked at me. He made no move to attack as I approached. We stared for a moment before two other pairs of wings could be heard and a light blue dragon and a yellow dragon landed behind me. I was surrounded. I spun around to look at the other two dragons.
The yellow dragon seemed like a normal build, only his horns were thicker and rounded at the tips. The light blue dragon had spikes on the end of his tail and his horns were pointing forward. Every time he exhaled, a puff of cold air escaped his nose. The three dragons had their eyes on me when there was another pair of flapping wings and to my right landed a pink dragon.
Again he- no she had a normal build. Around her neck was a strange black amulet with a dragon on it. Her eyes were strange as well, two different shades of pink, one lighter and one darker than her scales.
"She's the one," the pink dragon said.
"She is indeed Anna," the light blue one said.
"Let Lydia go, then we'll talk," I said.
"Show us first," the green dragon said.
"Show you what?" I asked.
"The tiger, duh," the yellow dragon said.
I rolled my eyes and transformed. My hands became paws, my skin becoming fur and wings sprouting from my back. My tail twitched as I looked at the dragons.
"I can't believe it. Her spirit has been hiding inside of...me," Anna said.
"You? And who are you talking about?" I asked.
"Yes me, we are connected Kathey. You and I were once one, as was the tiger you are right now," Anna said. Wait...she responded to me, she could understand me?
"Indeed I can, I can also read minds. Your friend is safe, we had her call your werewolf friend and managed to draw you here without any issues."
"Where is she?"
"Behind the house. Come on out Lydia!"
Around the corner of the house came Lydia, not a scratch on her, though she looked a little terrified. I turned human and watched as she came over to me cautiously, staring at the dragons who watched her.
"Scott's in the woods over there, he'll take you home, not a word about this to anybody," I whispered in Lydia's ear and she ran towards where I pointed.
I turned to the dragons and crossed my arms. "Now, where were we?"
Cliffhanger, I know, but there's a bit of a jump next chapter. No worries. And just to warn you guys, I use Kathey and many of her forms in just about ALL of my stories, and those three other unnamed dragons as well. Its kind of my specialty. Anyway, hope you liked it, see you guys Saturday, hopefully. :)
