Oh My God! You're A What?!?!

Chapter Twenty Five: Full Bloom

Chapter Twenty Five: Full Bloom

Fy's P.O.V.

I worry for Zyleia. In a matter of hours she has become very aggressive. What I can't really fathom is why Aidric would even say those things. Of course they're different but which mates aren't different. Roxane and Nate are polar opposites. Casijay and Nathan are very awkward but hey love isn't perfect. It takes time and Aidric should know that better than anybody, spending several months looking for her. Never mind Aidric, he will come crawling back but he does need to have several things on this mind.

He's never been a man of war unless he's desperate. Right now he is most likely stalling the war as long as possible, until we finish this quest that Lord Night has set us upon. A war between the animali and humans wouldn't be pretty, especially for the humans for we have the animals on our side. And us dragons will most likely be permitted again in the kingdoms to fight. I have always been one of the young dragons, only about 200 years old, I've somewhat lost track over time but I am young along with Sofie who is just a bit younger than I.

It's good that she has come with us. Maybe she can get through to Zyleia, especially now that they are venturing through the island together. Better way to get to know each other. Although I've only been flying a couple of hours I'm actually not that tired. Dragons have incredible stamina when it comes to flying, I could've spent days flying but the isles were fairly close. However, it's best to get rest whenever you can, who knows how long it'll be till I get a good nap. 

Nathan is supposed to be guarding us. We'll see how well that works. I sprawl onto the lush grass and make sure that I'm not fully asleep just in case the girls come back, or Johnathan does. But something is troubling me and I cannot go to sleep. And Nathan has also decided to train near us with his sword so there are the multiple grunts and "i'm so awesome's" coming from this awkward teenage boy. So instead I watch him, and his form, which isn't good but getting better. 

In all reality I never felt the need of such obedience training in soldiers. There is no such thing as fair fighting or gentlemanly war. We fight to restore dominance on who the superior species is. And to show off that you need to show how resourceful and intelligent you are by battling to win. Of course if we do this it might not be very "fair" to the humans but they should've thought of that before they fell prey to Johnathan's trap.

Zyleia's P.O.V.

What? We should've died well we might have died but we're not dead or on the ground so again, what? Sofie is frozen next to me and I look at what she's seeing and my eyes go wide. There are two guys and they are made out of water. Like madeout of water. They saved us but what are they? Sofie answers my question by whispering,

"Elementals."

The legends. They all seem to be coming true. Elementals are ancient people who were born of the elements. Eventually they evolved into present day humans and animalis or so the legend goes. It's said that they haven't been heard of for thousands of years and now I know why. They've been hiding all around us and in these isles. They've been abandoned so they live here now.

The men look at me, their eyes look like big blue sapphires set alight. They bow down to me, their heads so low they touch the ground. Sofie and I stand up and I help them to their feet. I don't know if they can understand me but I say,

"No please. We should be bowing before you for you saved us."

They look at me and give a slight nod. They might understand but they can't reply to me. They motion for Sofie and I to follow them and we do as said. Well gestured actually. They lead us deeper into the isles, going through the thick, untouched brush. It's really quiet and peaceful which usually I would enjoy but really the silence just makes me have my mind to myself. And my mind at the moment isn't a happy place, it's filled with darkness and thoughts of Him. All of our memories and how He used to hold me close and how we used to talk to each other and- No I need to stop, he doesn't care, probably never did, just going through the notions.
