Chapter 19:
Matt quickly looked up to see two of the Hybrids coming down at him. It was none other than Joel and Angelo!
"What the heck?", Matt questioned as they came down at him!
Angelo landed behind Matt while Joel landed in front of him. Joel looked up at Matt glaring at him!
"Stay way from my sister!", Joel snapped ready to fight the one in front of him.
"Your sister?", Matt questioned walking closer to them. "Ha! You've got to be kidding me! She's not your sister! She's a monster and needs to be stopped!"
"I SAID STAY AWAY FROM HER!", Joel snapped.
"And if I don't?", Matt asked think he could get past his friend who was glaring up at him.
Angelo then grabbed Matt's tail and bit down on it!
HARD!
"YE-OW!", Matt yelled as he felt the pain in his tail.
He then looked behind him to see his tail in Angelo's mouth.
"I should of known!", Matt yelled as he glared at Angelo.
"Blah!", Angelo said as he let Matt's tail go. "Nasty!"
"I'll give you nasty, you little brat!", Matt snapped as he tried to grab Aneglo, who jumped out of the way!
"You'll have to do better than that!", Angelo said as he came down on and jumped off of Matt's back.
Angelo then landed next to Joel ready to fight.
"Joel? Angelo?", Nerissa said weakly as she saw her brother and friend guarding her.
"Nerissa!", Joel said as he and Angelo turned to see her looking weak and hurt. "Are you okay?"
"I'm okay.", Nerissa said with a weak smile. "I'm just a little weak."
Nerissa then fainted to tired to do anything else.
Joel and Angelo turned towards Matt growling. Matt saw the anger in their eyes and knew something was up as Joel's eyes glowed white and Angelo's glowed green.
"This isn't good.", Matt said as he backed away slowly.
Suddenly, Joel hit Matt with a powerful energy blast combined with a powerful telekinetic wave from Angelo! The combo attack sent Matt flying several feet! He ended up going through some trees and ended up slamming against a large rock. He then dropped to the ground.
"Matt!", came a familiar female voice as Matt sat up against the rock he hit.
Matt looked up to see Will and the girls flying towards him along with Caleb and Blunk who were running towards him.
"Man, am I gald to see you, Will!", Matt said as he slowly started to stand up.
"What happened?", Will asked as she landed next to him and began to help him to his feet.
"They happened!", Matt said as he looked towards Joel and Angelo who's eyes were back to normal, but were still glaring at him and the others. "They did some kind of combo attack on me!"
"And they don't look happy.", Irma replied as she looked at Angelo and Joel.
"And I see why!", Hay Lin said as she looked past the two boys. "Look!"
Everyone then saw that Joel and Nerissa were guarding Nerissa as she laid there unconscious.
"What happened to her?", Caleb questioned.
Will then looked at Matt.
"Matt? What did you do?", Will asked gaining the attention of the others.
"I had her cornered when I hit her with my tail.", Matt said. "But when I was going to grab her, she released a powerful burst of electricity! And when she wasn't paying attention... I blasted her!"
"What?", the girls questioned.
"I didn't hit her!", Matt said. "I hit the ground in front of her! That's what sent her flying against the tree!"
"Who'd of thought they'd be this powerful as little kids?", Irma questioned.
"None of us did!", Cornelia said. "So, what do we do now?"
"We try and catch these three and go from there!", Will replied.
"If we can catch them.", Taranee said.
"We outnumber them eight to three!", Caleb said in a confident voice. "We can take them!"
Just as they were about to walk towards them, three figures landed next to Joel and Angelo. The teens looked to see that, Alchemy, Cassidy, and Micheal were now there.
"What was that about us taking them, Caleb?", Irma questioned.
"Nerissa!", Cassidy cried as she turned to see Nerissa laying on the ground unconscious
"What happened to her?", Alchemy questioned with conern as she turned to check on her unconscious friend.
"The one with the black wings hurt her!", Angelo said as he glared at Matt.
"Then we hurt him!", Micheal said as he glared at the teens.
"Now why are you here?", Joel asked. "And what do you want with Nerissa?"
"We want Nerissa for certain reasons!", Will replied. "But the reason we're here is to bring you back home with us!"
"But this is our home!", Angelo said. "We're dragons for crying out loud!"
"Leave this place before Draganos comes back and sends you running!", Joel demanded.
"Half-dragon!", Will said. "You're half-dragon."
"What did you say?", Cassidy asked.
"You're half-dragon.", Hay Lin said calmly. "You're half-dragon and half-human."
"What are you talking about?", Alchemy questioned. "We're dragons and dragons only!"
"Are you sure about that?", Taranee asked. "Besides you six, have you seen any other dragons like you? Look at your faces! They're just like ours!"
The five Hybrids looked at each other feeling a bit confused after hearing what Taranee said.
'Could we really be part human?', Alchemy thought to herself as she felt her face.
"I think you're getting to them, T.", Cornelia whispered to Taranee.
"I hope so.", Taranee said. "I don't want another fight to break out."
"No! No! No!", Cassidy yelled as she shook her head. "We're dragons! My mother loves me and raised me!"
"Your mother?", Irma questioned.
"Yes! My mother, Hydras!", Cassidy said. "She raised me to be strong and use my powers!"
"She's not your real mother!", Irma said. "She only raised you as her own!"
"That's how it was with all of you!", Will said. "The Grand Dragons that raised you, raised you as their own! They're not your real parents!"
"We know that!", Angelo said gettting their attention. "They took us and raised us! Then they brought us here to be raised by Draganos to get even stronger!"
"But you don't have to do that anymore.", Cornelia said as she stepped forward. "You can come with us back to our world and away from all of this."
"What about Nerissa?", Joel asked. "What will you do to her?"
"Let us deal with her.", Caleb said. "We have a special place for here."
"NO!", Joel snapped. "I'm not going to let you touch her!"
"So, if you want her, you'll have to get past us!", Micheal snapped as his eyes glowed violet.
"Oh that's not good!", Irma said.
"You have no idea!", Matt said as Alchemy glared at them as her eyes glowed orange, and Cassidy's glowed ice blue.
Then Angelo's eyes glowed green again while Joel's glowed white.
"This isn't going to end well. Is it?", Hay Lin questioned as they all saw the glowing eyes of the five Hybrids.
"Nope.", Cornelia said as they began to back away from them.
But before the Hybrids let loose any attacks, a large figure landed in between the two groups! The Guardians and their allies looked up to see Draganos in his ten foot form!
"Oh crap!", Matt said as he looked up at the mighty dragon.
"How dare you come here and harm one of these young ones?", Draganos questioned as he glared at the seven teens and little Passling. "Haven't you done enough to them?"
"But we're trying to undo what we-"
"SILENCE!", Draganos yelled cutting Will off making her and the others jump a little.
'I know what you're planning to do!', Draganos said to them telepathiclly. 'And it won't work!'
'Why not?', Taranee asked.
'Because you'll end up mixing energies!', Draganos said. 'And that's dangerous! This was tried during the time of the last Hybrids! The Guardians of that time tried to do what you're thinking of doing. Had me and the other five Grand Dragon hadn't stopped them, those Hybrids would of died!'
The seven teens gasped after hearing that! And deep down they were glad that they were stopped.
"Thank you for stopping us from doing what we were planning on doing.", Will said.
"I didn't do it for you!", Draganos said as he glared at them. "I did it to protect them! Now I suggest you all leave now before I do to you what the foolish Regent did to Nerissa!"
"After all she's done, she deserves to be locked away!", Matt snapped.
"Do not try me, boy!", Draganos yelled. "Come here again and you will regret it!"
"We're leaving!", Will said as she opened a fold for Earth. "But if we find a way to reverse what has happened-"
"Then you will come to me first!", Draganos said cutting Will off. "Understand?"
Will only nodded before going through the fold with the others. Draganos watched as the fold closed, making sure they were gone. Once they were gone, Draganos turned to see the young Hybrids looking up at him with anger and sadness in their eyes. And he understood why they were like that. He read their thoughts and saw what had happened.
'Now what should I do?', he thougth to himself. 'I planned to tell them about themelves when they were older. But that's to those foolish Guardians, I may have to tell them earlier. But first, I have to attened to Nerissa!'
Draganos transformed into his Hybrid form and walked up to the childern.
"Stand aside young ones.", Draganos said as he stood before them. "Let me see, Nerissa."
"Will she be okay?", Joel asked being concern for his sister.
"I believe so, Joel.", Draganos said as he knelt down to Nerissa. "She just needs a little healing energy."
"I can help!", Angelo said as he stepped up.
"Thank you, Angelo.", Draganos said with a kind smile. "But, I think I should do this. It's going to take a good amount of energy to do this. And you only have so much."
"Okay.", Angelo said as he backed away.
Draganos then placed his hands on Nerissa's head and side. He then began to focus his powers. Soon, energy started to flow into Nerissa, healing any and all wounds she had! After a few seconds, Draganos recalled his energy and waited for Nerissa to wake up. Everyone looked to see her eyes slowly open. Once open, Nerissa saw Draganos and the other Hybrids looking at her.
"Hey, guys. Hey, Draganos.", Nerissa said in a weak voice with a weak smile.
"Hello, Nerissa.", Draganos said as he stroked her hair a little.
"You okau, sis?", Joel asked still worried for his sister.
"I'm okay.", Nerissa said as she tried to stand but fail.
"Easy, Nerissa.", Draganos said as he gently scooped her up in his arms and stood up straight. "You need to take it easy for a while."
"Okay.", Nerissa said with a small smile.
"Now gather around, young ones.", Draganos said.
The five Hybrids gathered around Draganos. He then focused his energy and teleported them all with him back to the den. Once there, Draganos carried Nerissa into the cave, where their den was as carefully laid her in her nest.
"Um... Draganos? I have a question.", Alchemy said.
"What is it Alchemy?", Draganos asked knowing what her question was.
"Those human told us that we were half-dragon and half-human.", Alchemy said. "Is that true?"
Draganos let out a deep sigh as he sat next to Nerissa's nest. He now knew what he had to do.
"Gather around and sit down, young ones.", Draganos said. "For I have something to tell you all."
Once the five of then sat down, Draganos began to tell them what he could tell them without ruining everything. After this, Draganos knew that things would be different. He just hope that it wouldn't ruin what he had planned in the future.
A/N: Well folks, looks like the Hybrids are going to learn about what they really are. This will change things for them. Maybe even for the better. Maybe. This will all lead up to something. What that is I'll never tell. You'll just have to wait and see.
Please review.
