Chapter 3

3...2...1… Dark

(Leo's POV)

I finished installing the chip and Festus began his diagnostic check to reboot. I got up and jumped around whooping. Who can install a nano personality chip into a giant flippin METAL DRAGON? This guy! I ran into the trees trying to find Calypso but I couldn't find her. I started to get worried because she had just told me that she was no longer immortal and I knew that she could get hurt. I started calling for her fear creeping into my voice. Calypso? I screamed out. Where are you? I started feeling wetness come to my eyes. I think to myself maybe she was just using me to get off her island. Maybe she never really loved me. I lean against a tree and try and get a hold on myself. No, I told myself. She loves me. I start walking again but then I step into one of those freaky rope traps. I wasn't expecting it because I can sense metal. This trap was made completely from vines. I look around as I am hanging from my ankle. I glance at the trees and see a figure walking towards me. I can't tell if it's male or female. The figure comes up in front of me and caresses my face. I try and bite it and it jerks it's hand back laughing. I can tell that it is feminine but also gruff, like a 30 year old smokers. The figure reaches into a pouch and the side of it's body and pulls out a powder. It blows it into my face and says sweet dreams. That's the last thing I heard before the blackness overwhelmed me.

(Festus's POV EEP)

A red light flashed across my vision. It said rebooting system… I looked around as my diagnostic check came back positive. I saw Master Leo running off into the trees. My audio interface was not turned on so I only caught the end of his sentence. ... LYPSO? He called out. Oh. I thought to myself. He must be looking for that girl. I wondered how soon he was going to be back. I became restless and flew up into the sky and started circling the island looking for Leo. I saw a clearing and zoomed in on it with my eye lenses. I saw some weird person tying up both Leo and the girl. I gave out a mighty roar and swooped down on the person. The person turned faster than humanly possible and tossed a rod of some sort at me. The rod clipped my wing and sent an electric current through my body. I shuddered and landed in the clearing with a thud. My hearing interface and lenses turned off and red text flashed across. Emergency shut down in 3...2...1… Dark.
