Chapter 38 - # 38 Dragon Theory & Skills

[In the pitch black vastness of space, a time frozen and lost to all forms of remembrance, the sound of a soft heart beat can be heard pulsing from the universe.]

????: ....sun, alight. (With these very words at the center of this deep and cold expanse a yellow sun formed creating a warm glow on the now open space.) Stars, ignite. (With these words a silvery shine began to dot the sky, luminous in it's radiance and enough to fill a galaxy.) Planets, take shape. Time rewind. I am constant and eternal for I am universal. (A large explosion takes place in the vastness of space and as the lights begin to dim from the explosions, what appears to be large dragon eyes are seen fading away with the lights.) I wish to live a happy life. I wish to live a healthy life. I will live a successful live. For I am Universal. (As the echoing voice reverberates throughout the universe, the sound of a baby crying can be heard ringing out.)

Small baby: Whaa! Whaa!!(On a terran planet a small baby girl with two strand of hair on her head, one crimson the other cobalt. The baby is swiftly cleaned off and handed to the mother.)

Doctor: Congratulations Lady Hart! You've given birth to a beautiful baby girl!! I know you must be tired so please feel free to rest with your child. As medics of tribe set "Quartanyo" I am allowed to treat an Null Elem such as yourself. Not being able to use magic must be such a burden...

Hart: Thank you. I will rest with my child..I will call for Elder Shade later if I need something. (Almost rolling her eyes in dismissal of the doctor's comment she begins to smile at her child as she says.) My beautiful little Kiara...

[10 years Hart is seen walking around a small plot of land for farming, Kiara is also seen walking along side her mother, her hair a mixture of red and blue streams all braided back behind her and her face full of dirt along with her clothes, she happily helped her mother til the soil for their vegetable garden.]

Kiara: Momma, why do we have to live on the edge of the island? Aren't you a important lady to your job?

Hart: Ki, I've told you before my beloved. This is the best place for people who have no element. It's not all that bad sweetie, do you remember the spell mommy taught you? (Continuing to work the land she finishes and listens to her daughters words.)

Kiara: (She begins to giggle joyfully as she says in response to her mother.) UH HUH!! I love it!! Distortion is super useful too!! I was able to get to school in no time!!

Hart: Kiara Young! How many times have I tole you not to use your spells to shortcut life? Walking is perfectly acceptable dear but you must stop sleeping in! (With a sigh and a laugh she picks Kiara up and walks back to their small cottage resting the tools outside.) Are you hungry my love? Elder Shade should be arriving soon.

Kiara: Yes!! Snacks please!! (She jumps with an excited expression on her face until she hears that name.) BOOOOOOO!!!!! He's mean and creepy!! He keeps telling me I fit some propocy...or something. (As she mumbles the words her mother says aloud.)

Hart: Prophecy. You are the only Majekador in history to ever be born with multiple abilities my love. Legends speak of a dragon that encircles the universe as we know it. It's breath creates suns, it's claws create planets and eyes that can see all of creation. Legends have it that this dragon was one a being created by The ONE true God. After time that being began to awaken, thus it wanted and wondered....although Majekadors are called "Deamons" we are but mere imitation of original magical beings.

Kiara: So we're like fairies! I wanna grow up and have wings!! Then I won't have to use Distortion get to school anymore!! (Giggling innocently she awaits her snack.)

Hart: (Preparing some cookies for Kiara, she gives her a side eyed look as she mutters doggedly.) You've no intention of getting up in the morning I see!

[Just then there is a knock at the front door of the cottage.]

????: (Deep voice rings into the cottage as the door swings open to reveal a man about 7ft tall. His arms long and lanky and his hair and robes the same jet black you would find on a ravens coat, his mustache, long and curling inward.) Pardon the intrusion, Lady Hart. For I Elder Shade have arrived as promised. I see the child is growing strong...

Kiara: I'm 10 you creep! I'm almost 11! I'm not a child!! (She hurriedly snatches the cookies from the plate before running past Shade and into her room.)

Hart: You'll have to forgive my daughter Father of Void..I would imagine after such a long travel to my humble abode you may be parched. Ven, por favor, I'll make tea. (Calmly walking about her kitchen as the tall lanky man takes a seat.)

Shade: I grow tired of waiting to teach her "Skills" you know..your daughter is the only living fragment of "The Original One" we have ever encountered. What's more is with just a but of suggesting and she can learn anything within seconds...have you finished preparing the next body? (His eyes tracing the room as he spoke giving off an air of malevolence. Taking a moment to reach into his robes he seeming pulls out a shrunken blacked hand as his shadow is seen behind him walking around the room.) Soon...soon I shall have my children as well.

[Meanwhile Dantzler has begun to regain consciousness. The air smelled stiff as if he were in some kind of an office building.]

Dantzler: (With a light groan he slowly sits himself upright while placing a hand on his head to soothe the pain) Kimora! Dammit, I think I triggered that security tool. I gotta get back to help her! (Dantzler blinks a few times as he takes a look around at his surroundings. A television is heard in the distance with a news broadcast for the "Global Public Personal")

Male News Anchor: In other news for today "L.A.W" is declaring a massive bomb had dropped in Columbia during a training exercise which trigger a local volcano to begin erupting.. L.A.W has issued an apology for those whom had losses while also...(As the T.V continues, a male officer with eye length white blonde hair and green eyes, walks into the long corridor and stands infront of the seemingly open space between himself and Dantzler.)

Male Officer: I see you're awake. We didn't bother with handcuffs since that would be a wasted effort..I've seen your profile. Dantzler was it?

Dantzler: (With a smirk he says aloud.) That depends on who's asking and why. Also where am I?

Male Officer: I am petty officer Tynis but I am here on behalf of L.A.W....so do you remember the last few events?

Dantzler: (Dantzler plants his feet on the ground and raises his arms above his head stretching as he replies to the officer infront of him.) Uhhmmm...sooorta? I remember going to G.D.I which was supposed to be fun..then I did something bad and it became unfun sooooo..I wanted to go bring back that pretty ladies shine and sparkle! But..I lost her...and now I'm lost. (He pauses for a moment as of contemplating on something then simply leans back and closes his eyes.)

Tynis: Well it's been 72 hours since the explosion occurred in South America and not only moments before that happened you were sent to a holding cell for questioning but you were not conscious until today. (Taking a moment to look over his notepad he brushes his hair out of his eyes as he says ever so calmly.) Within that time a new Deidic was seen crash landing on to the impact now known as "Elegant" and proceeded to not only REVEAL a Definition we were not aware of but with a wave of her hands, was able to simply extinguish the flames of Elegant origin.

Dantzler: (Opening one eye and staring lazily at the officer, Dantzler begins searching his own pockets for his cassette player.) Yeahhh, that's cool and all but what's that got to do with me bro? If anything it sounds like you have it all figured out so can I go now?

Tynis: Well not quite. You see, one other person triggered the emergency correction program but your band specifically malfunctioned and placed you here together....(With a sigh he call to the room behind him.) Sargent Richards I really wish you would explain this to him yourself sir!

[The door just behind Tynis leading to the room with a long hallway opens slowly as a man smoking a cigar enters the room with his military jacket on his shoulders and his hat covering his face as he walks into the room and says.]

Sargent Richards: But Tynis...this is how you keep good appearances. It's allllll about presentation. (Taking a long drag off of his cigar as he leans against the wall behind Tynis.)
