Chapter 20-Visions of the Future
Great, I get the job of trying to help my little sister accept her own Guardian back into her life, Sarina thinks as she falls back onto her bed in the castle.
The castle overlooked the Guardian chamber so that made for a quick route of communications between her and the Guardians in case they needed anything.
You did a good job with helping Santerous when Tamli left to search for a way to speak with Finca, Silver answers from down on the floor.
That was because I knew what he was going through Silver, Sarina says.
And you think less of Tronay? Silver asks.
No but . . . Sarina begins.
At that moment the door to Sarina and Silver's chamber opened.
"Someone called room service?" A tiny fairy asks as it hovers behind a huge tin of food.
That would be mine, Silver says as she stands up.
The fairy places the food in front of Silver and then exits the room.
You asked for food to be brought up here? Sarina asks.
Yes, Silver replies as she takes off the tin top and stares at her food.
And yet you got nothing for me? Sarina asks.
I asked you if you wanted anything but you didn't response so I didn't get you anything, Silver says as she rips a large piece of meat off what looks like a drumstick.
What is that, a drumstick? Sarina asks.
Yes it is, replies Silver as she tears another piece off her food.
Sarina sighs and looks up at the ceiling. Suddenly an image rips through her thoughts.
A large white dragon backs up against the walls of Sarina's own chamber. Two other creatures approach the dragon. One looks like a black dragon with the symbol of the Orichalcos across his chest.
Let us have the child Finca, the dragon growls as he rises onto two legs.
No, Finca screams as she backs up even more.
Should you refuse we shall make your passing more painful and filled with misery, the other creature says.
It looks like a beast that is half dragon and half serpent.
No the child is not born yet, Finca cries.
We know. But once it is born, this child shall be the most powerful dark dragon of all! The black dragon snarls.
You shalln't take the child away from me. The only way that you shall ever see the child is when it fights against you in battle, Finca growls as her wings push against the wall.
There is no place to run now Finca, the serpent-dragon crossbreed snarls.
Finca looks around in fear. The black dragon snarls and breathes a blast of fire at Finca . . .
Sarina is pulled back from her vision by Silver.
Are you alright Sarina? Silver asks in concern.
I'm fine Silver I just need a little air, Sarina replies as she as she gets up and steps out onto the balcony overlooking the Guardian chamber.
{Sarina-narrator}
I breathe in and then breathe out. I blink my eyes and raise my head to look at the chamber.
What was that ? A vision? I think. It couldn't be a premonition. I haven't had one in years. But that's the only reason I can give as to what it was.
I sigh and turn back around to face Silver.
You seems troubled young one, Silver says as she ruffles my hair with her snout.
I am Silver, I reply. For I just had a premonition after all these years.
What? You had a premonition? Silver bellows.
Yes I did Silver, I reply calmly.
When? Silver asks.
A few minutes ago, I reply.
When you zoned out? Silver asks.
Yes, I reply.
Silver stares at me. She must have just remembered that my last premonition was over twenty years ago, when I foretold that we would meet up with Santerous, Dartz, and Tronay in a forest clearing.
We should go see Sundar and Aurora, Silver says as she grabs my arm with her teeth.
No! I yell, jerking away. We are not going to see Sundar and Aurora because they don't need to be involved in this.
Silver backs up, startled at my sudden outburst.
Sorry Silver I didn't mean to yell at you, I say softly as I place my hand on Silver's scaly shoulder. If you want we can go see Sundar and Aurora.
A few hours later we meet with Sundar and Aurora and Silver begs me to tell them about my premonition. I do as she asks and it is then that I learn that a Guardian Dragon egg was stolen from the Guardian chamber. Silver and I fly at once to the chamber to find out what happened. We are met by Ameria who leads us inside.
This has never occurred before, Ameria says as we walk to the holding chamber for the eggs.
Did you try to find out anything about the thing that fled with the egg? Silver asks.
No we didn't find anything about the person that took the egg, Ameria replies sadly.
I was told to meet with the Guardians later that night to try and find a way to find Tronay but after Silver and I leave the chamber I ask her to land in a grass field.
Why did you ask me to land here Sarina? Silver asks as I slide off her back.
Is it because you want to find out about what took the Guardian egg? Silver presses as I remain silent.
No, I was asked to meet with a friend of mine tonight so I need you to leave me for a few hours, I reply.
What? Silver asks.
Please, just for a small amount of time.
Silver snorts. Fine.
Silver leaves and I go and find my friend. I'm alerted to her presence by her dragon Cryill nearly jumping on me.
"Cryill watch it!" I cry as I dodge him.
Forgive me Sarina I thought that you were someone that came looking to harm Isis, Cryill says as he looks at me, his green eyes locking with my purple ones.
"Ah Sarina I knew you would come as you promised me earlier," Isis says as she walks out of a bush with Finca trailing behind.
"How did Finca get with you?" I ask.
"It's a long story and I'll tell you later but I want you to have something," Isis says as she hands me a cloth that holds something.
