The Nine Dragons The Serpent Dragon Part Two

 Village Life 


Loc woke up in a bed. It was cold with a thin sheet and an uncomfortable mattress made of a thin layer of animal hide. She felt clean, yet her body felt like lead. She still felt tired and her head still ached. She tried to remember what had happened the day before that would cause this sense of exhaustion. Then she noticed the wooden roof. Then she remembered that she had beaten Wolf Raven and after that she remembered seeing the portal then she remembered leaning in those barrels of vegetables and fighting those strange serpent humanoid creatures.

I guess that yesterday did happen.

Seems so.

Oh!

Well this is definitely not my world. Unless something strange happened but I don’t think that Ringer or the rest of T.O.O.T.R.O.E. would have let that happen. Nah! They would have done something.

Which means that I need to find out if this world has a piece of one of the three Reality Spheres. Hope it’s the same as this one. She thought, fondling the pendant.

Anyway…too tired to think about that.

Need to get my bearings…need to find the stronghold of this world.

I think that I just did.

Nah! They were just the foot soldiers.

She closed her eyes and had a dream of nine shadows. All of them looked either like dragons or dragon-like. Some were big and others bigger. Yet some of them did not look like the dragons that she had back in her home world. There was one in the far distance that seemed to eclipse the shadows in front.

Then she heard a voice sing. In her ear.


“Nine Dragons,

Three armies each,

Only one can take them down,

Born beyond their reach!”


She groaned as she turned around and hit her head as she rolled out of bed.

“Aw!”

“So, you’re awake?”

Loc looked up to see an old man. He had marrow blue pupiless eyes. He had pale wrinkled skin and hair like white cotton.

“Who are you?”

“Ken Tengo.”

“Loc.”

He nodded.

“Not from around here, are you?”

“No.”

“So you know nothing about dragons?”

“Yes, from my home world. Why? What do you know?”

“We have been the slaves of them, nine of them, for generations. We don’t know how long ago it was, but one day they all appeared and conquered our lands with their armies.”

“How many?”

“Three.”

She nodded.

“Right.”

Then her stomach growled.

“How long was I out?”

“Two and a half days.”

She nodded.

“Hungry?”

“Yes.”

He chuckled as he took a scythe and pointed it to her.

“Too bad. If you do not work then you will not get food.”

So that’s how it is?

“What do I do?”

“Follow me.”

They walked into a field with pants the size of two men! They were as gold as the sun.

“Alright. Do as I do.”

He pulled the scythe back and cut down one group. Then she did the same. They  did this again and again and again. Until a row of the plants had been cut.

“Now we can stop. Help me pick this up!”

She nodded as she did all that Kan did. They both brought it into a basket. She helped carry the basket to the hut, where she placed it down.

“Come, on! Tone to eat!”

They walked to his hut and he cooked a stew with purple, green and maroon vegetables in a greyish brown liquid with blue balls like English dumplings and a well done food like beacon. He put down a wooden spoon and she noticed that the bowl was also wood.

“Thank you!”

She took a sip and noticed that it tasted like gravy and she tasted the food and noticed that it tasted like carrots, parsnips, cabbage broccoli and gamon.

When was it that I tasted something like this before?

It would be back in my home world.

She smiled as she ate it.

“It’s good!”

“Yes. Well my wife, before she died, trained me well!”

She let out a chuckle. Then, for the next seven days, she worked for him which gave her both her full strength and rest.

Scar Parents Fight Part Three

  Hunter’s Defence  Scar opened her eyes. She then walked down the stairs. She slowly took out her homework, just to take her mind off the day before she started doing it. She started with her maths to fode her mind to focus. She then moved onto literacy. After she had done both her mind felt sharp and clear of all of the upset. She looked up, it was half past seven. She then took a slice of bread. She then put it in the toaster and pulled out a tin of beans. Half of them had already been eaten the day feforeshe then put it in the bowl and then put it in the microwave for a minute. As she waited she picked up a newspaper. Three women arrested. They claimed to be witches yet none have any drugs in their system. They were arrested  for killing four children. When asked why they claimed  it was to obtain power. So they've been arrested. Good! She heard the beeping and soon put the beans on the plate then took the toast out and soon took out a fork. After ripping the toast in half she

The Nine Dragons The Serpent Dragon Part Three

  The Boa Army Loc was working hard in the field. It was getting to evening time. She had found that she liked working there as a farmer. There was just something so satisfying in doing hard work and made the food taste better and she slept better too. She could see herself doing this for the rest of her life however long that would be, yet she knew that she could not. Regardless of how much she liked the village and the people there. She had noticed that the people there looked almost like the people in her world just without any pupils and they were weaker too. She also noticed that despite this, they were all hard working and nothing was eaten until they had done their work. During this time she had completely recovered her whole energy and strength from all of the battles that she had on that day. She had also been able to gather her thoughts and psychology recovered and was able to have her time of mourning her losses from her rebellion. Yet she found that this might have been due

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Part Six

 The Purple Monster  “Why?” “Open the book and put all of the other Purple Artefacts into the page that it fits.” Doormaze nodded as she opened the book. On the first page as a hole where she put the Purple Purl in. The page glowed and for a moment. When the glowing died down the purl was in the page, almost like a picture. She then turned another page. There was another hole with a flower hole in. She then placed the Purple Flower in. It glowed and soon the flower was in the book. She turned the page, where she placed the Purple Feather in.  Once it became a picture the book glowed. Soon light flooded the room. All had to close their eyes as the light became far too bright. Then Doormaze no longer felt the book in her hands. She opened her eyes to see a light above her hands almost like a miniature star. What is this? Then it became so bright she had to close her eyes again. Then she felt something covering her body. It felt light and comfortable. Her eyes opened to see that she was c

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Part Four

  The Purple Book They travelled down the cave in West Mountain for an entire day. Yet they did not leave until the following day. They left the cave to see a group of small houses. They were all small and in the style of King Garnet’s castle. “This is the abandoned town of Faiton. It’s here somewhere. So I think we will have to go in them to find it. You need not worry, there has not been a single person seen here in decades.” The other three nodded. “And what does this next artefact look like?” “It is a purple book. It is made from the same material as the crystal flower.” “Right. Then, let’s split up and explore every house.” Doormaze spoke, punching her fist. “And mark the door of the house that has been checked and leave the door open while it's being checked.” “Good thinking.” They all split and walked into the first house that was closest to them. They all started on the ground floor. Then the first floor and the second floor. Upon seeing nothing, they left the house. They p

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Part Three

  The Purple Flower They, because it was late when they reached the top chamber, decided to take a break. They lit a fire and, after cooking a small stew, started to eat. “Now, tomorrow, where to next?” “Well, Doormaze, we must travel over the Flower Bridge. It used tobe a small village on a large plot of land that the other mouth of the cave leads to. The houses were too and far between. It was mainly covered in many different purple flowers.” “And that’s why it’s called Flower Bridge?” “Well, that is because of the plot of land that joins the East Mountain, which we are in, and West Mountain, which is where the Purple Flower is in, is naturally formed.” “And there is nothing underneath it.” “No.” “Well,” She said, finishing her meal. “That’s something to sleep on.” After they all ate their meal,they went to sleep. Doormaze dreamed of Natalie again. She opened her, now dragon, eyes. She walked over to the dragons. They were sound asleep. She smiled as she turned away from them. She wa

Scar Parents Fight Part Four

  Mother’s Knife Scar woke. She saw Morara right in front of her. She dived back as she punched her. She tried to unbuckle, yet she noticed that she soon noticed that it was jammed. She tried to pull the belt but that too was jammed. She tried to pull it again and again and again but it did nothing. She looked up in fear as she saw the knife coming at her. She quickly dived out of the way then the knife turned to her. She tried to punch her but she caught her wrist. She tried to pull her hand out of her hand. Yet she was too strong. She saw the knife getting closer and closer. She hit the arm as hard as she could which made her drop the knife. She then finally pulled out more of her belt and fell out. She then felt a slit in her arm. She let out a whimper as she looked up at Morana went to stab her again and again. She kicked her again and again and again. She looked at both Alex, who was unconscious. She drove her hands to his belt and she pulled the belt and he hit his head as he fel

Scar Parents Fight Final Part

  Assassin’s Sacrifice  Charlotte, knowing that none of them had any time or chance to call an ambulance, ran. She knew where the hospital was and that none of them had any time to lose. She ran down the street as fast as she could. Yet it must have been obvious where she was running to as Morana looked at her innanyer and knew in that moment she would kill to stop her from going there.  Her parents had the exact expression on their faces when she had to stop pretending that she was a boy. After all, they always wanted a boy and when she was born a girl they tried to turn her into one. But the only thing that reminded them that she was a girl was her name, which they shortened to Charlie at one point. Just to keep the illusion that she was a boy alive in their deluded minds. The only thing that got her out of that situation was the series of dead girls that were her sisters and only one son being alive at the cost of her neglect. Van Kira, she remembered his name was. “Oh no you don’t!
