Amber and the guys had been walking for hours when they came to a castle. Like all castles it was make of stone. Amber sniffed the air. The place smelled like dead bodies and dragons.
“So is this the place?” asked Yusuke.
“There’s no mistaking it,” Amber said wrinkling her nose, “This smell is killing my nose.”
“Really?” said Kuwabara sniffing the air, “I don’t smell anything.”
“Of course you don’t idiot. You’re human,” said Hiei.
“Hey bite my a…”
“Kuwabara,” Amber interrupted, “bite you’re tongue.”
When Kuwabara just stared at Amber she sighed.
“It means watch yourself.”
“Ummm…”
“It’s no use explaining to the idiot. He wouldn’t understand it anyway.”
Amber glared at Hiei then looked back at Kuwabara.
“I don’t want to hear that kind of language, got that?”
“Sorry. It won’t happen again,” said Kuwabara.
“He doesn’t look like an idiot to me Hiei. You just don’t have patients.”
“Like I need any.”
Amber sighed again. Why did they always have to make things harder, thought Amber as she started walking again. Amber knows Hiei hates Kuwabara and Kuwabara hates Hiei. Still this wasn’t the time nor the place to fight with teammates.
“Now that’s a big door,” said Yusuke interrupting Amber’s thoughts.
The door was silver and had to be twice as big as Yusuke.
“I’ll have to agree with you,” said Kurama.
“How are we going to open that?” asked Yusuke, “It’s got to be very heavy.”
“We’ll just have to push it together,” said Amber and step up to the door.
She jumped back when the door opened up by itself. She placed a hand over her racing heart. She had been expecting that she admitted to herself. Her eyes narrowed as she walked into the castle. She had a feeling that something was going to happen and soon.
“Be careful…ahhh.”
A door under her opened and she fall into its darkness then it closed again.
“AMBER!!!” the guys yelled running over to where she had been standing.
They tried to reopen the door with no real luck.
“Come on lets get moving we’re not helping any by just standing here,” said Kurama.
The guys walked off into the hall to find Amber and defeat Eve.
Eve stepped into the cave. In the notes she’d found in the briefcase said the gem would be in a cave far to the east of the toon world. The gem was now just a few steps away, Eve thought. Soon she could use it to bring back those dragons that had been killed during her first attempt. The human would then fall pray once again and with the gem no one would stand a chance. Not when she could bring anyone back from the dead.
“Forward!” Eve order, “I must have to gem.”
Logan and his fellow dragons followed Eve quietly. She called them back not because she needed them, but because she didn’t feel like doing any manual labor. After she got the gem she’d then finish off those who were out to stop her, she promised herself, and she’d give that dragon a chance to live by joining her. If she didn’t Eve would make she suffer. Eve laughed as she continued to walk. That would show the dragon.
0_0 So that Eve's plan. Why is Eve so against the humans? Well humans hate dragons (then again dragons hate humans so they're even). I not sure, but I think I'm getting close to the end. So (if I'm right) I have ended one of my many stories I have going.
This weekend my aunt and cousin came down. I know I went up to see them last weekend, but hey it only meant I got to see them again. I had real fun, but I didn't really get to work on my story so sorry about that. I'm glad they came down.
Amber had been human then. She was headed home from the library. Amber had always gone to the library. She loved to read. She favorite books were love stories and manga. She’d checked out Tears of the Moon by Nora Roberts. The book was one of her favorites for she had read it many times already. It was a love story that took place in Ireland.
Amber smile at remembering it. Anyway, her car had just decided to die on her so she managed to steer her car to the side of the road. It was night so it was very dark. She hadn’t meant to stay so late. She turned the key so the car was off or would have been off. She felt around in the dark looking of her handy phonebook she’d put in her car just incase it died on her. It wasn’t the first time her car had died on her, but the only difference was this time the car had been moving not parked.
Amber cut her hand on something and cursed out loud. She decided to forget the phonebook and walk. It wasn’t, after all, a long walk for she’d almost been home. It was, she calculated, a block or two, maybe three at the most. Amber grab her purse and swinging it over her shoulder got out nursing her hand. The cut ran down her hand and a little bit of the arm, but it wasn’t too bad. She had had worst. Halfway home she had encountered a group of dragon. At this point, dragons had just bearly started the attacks on humans in plain sight. The dragon circled her while talking. Then the scent of blood captured one of the dragons. After that everything went blurry.
Next thing Amber knew it was morning. She had been in the bedroom of that tiny run down house she and Matt lived in now. Matt, himself, was in the living room asleep on the couch. Amber had got up and went into the bathroom. It was then she realized she was a dragon. Amber panicked. She didn’t know to do.
Amber thought she might have screamed for Matt had woke up and was standing at the bathroom door in a matter of seconds with a puzzle look on his face. When he saw what was up, the puzzled look changed to amusement, which annoyed Amber. And, Amber thought dully, still does to this very day. Matt explained thing to Amber on what had happen. Since Matt had been five hundred years old at that time Amber decide to stay with him. It took about seven months for Amber and Matt to become friends. Amber sighed heavily.
“What’s wrong,” Kurama asked finishing bandaging Yusuke.
“I was just think of my becoming a dragon.”
Amber tucked her knees under her chin.
“I was part of the first group of people in the year 2009 to bit by a dragon just when they started attacking it plain sight. The humans now call that year the Time of the Dragons. It’s been three hundred years and humans still hate dragons just as much today as they did then.”
“Then they don’t know what they’re missing,” stated Kuwabara.
Amber smiled.
“Something tells me that they aren’t think.”
“Like they think that all,” said Hiei.
Everyone started laughing. Amber had always thought she didn’t have friend since she was a dragon. Now, Amber thought, she could see she was wrong. She had four great friends in front of her and one great friend in the real world and maybe the human would come to like the dragons some day. Then, she thought with a smile, she would visit her family and say what she never got to. Goodbye.
“Well,” said Yusuke, “I think it’s time to move out.”
Every nodded. Yusuke grunted as he stood up. Soon the five pick up where they had left off. Everyone talked about what had happen with his or her fight against the enemy.
Well, now you know more of what Amber went through when she become a dragon. I think it's sad the she didn't get to say goodbye to her family, but one day I sure she'll visit their graves and say it. Please comment and have a good day.
“Amber, what’s up?” Matt asked as he answered the little black box.
“Matt we’ve go major problems here,” said Amber as she started walking back to where she had left the others.
“Yeah, here to.”
“Really?”
“Really. So what’s happenin’ on your side? Is everyone ok?”
“Well I don’t know about everyone else, but I’m in bad shape.”
“Explain.”
“Well after we took a lunch break, we ran into five dragons. The one named Logan seemed to be the leader. Well beside Eve that is. He is strong, smart, fast, and pure evil. I had a hard time with him, Matt. If it wasn’t for the fact the he left I don’t think I would talkin’ to ya right now.”
“He left?”
“Yeah, I heard I high pitched sound then he said ‘Sorry Amber I’d love to continue this fight, but it seems Eve has something for me. ‘Til next time’. Then he disappeared in a puff of smoke.”
“Interesting.”
“ Interesting? Matt, what do you know?” she asked stopping she was now just a little ways from the clearing where the others were now waiting.
“Well I spotted a dragon jumping from roof top to roof top so I followed him. As it turns out he was working for Eve. Anyway, he went into this apartment and was askin’ about the Gem of Life. The man that was usin’ the apartment had said ‘Anything you want to know is right there in that briefcase’. Then the dragon, named Kenneth, went up to the briefcase, thumbed through it, smile and mutter something, then snapped the guy’s neck, and disappeared in a puff of smoke.”
“Well Logan did say something about there being one more,” Amber mutter thinking to herself, “Wait, you think that that why Eve called Logan back?”
“That might be the case.”
“I’ve got to talk to the others and find out what happen to them. I call ya if I find out anything.”
“Right, I’ll do the same. Some has to something.”
They hung up and Amber dashed around the remaining trees. She saw Kurama bandaging Yusuke. Kuwabara complaining about how the ‘stupid’ dragon ran off before he could take him out. Hiei was sitting under a tree and from the looks of it sulking too.
Sorry people I'll be going out of town starting today when my parent get off of work. I won't be back until tuesday so I won't be posting the next chapter 'til then. Hopefully I'll have it done by then. Well, Laterz.
Keith swung his tail at Yusuke. Yusuke jump into the air to dodge. When Yusuke land he swung leg up kicking Keith in the jaw. Keith flew back and right before hitting the ground he flipped so that he landed on his feet. Man, Yusuke thought, this dragons good. Keith charged at Yusuke his fist connecting to Yusuke’s gut. Yusuke slid back a few steps. Keith spit out some blood. His jaw was sore from that kick. Keith smiled.
“What are you smilin’ about?” Yusuke demanded.
Keith said nothing and continued to smile.
“I’m gonna wipe that stupid smile off your face,” yell Yusuke charging at him.
Yusuke swung his fisted hand towards Keith face. Keith seized Yusuke’s hand just before it hit his face. Keith was still smiling.
“I like you kid …”
Yusuke didn’t like the look in his eyes, nor did he like the evilness in the grin.
“…and when I like something,” he paused for a moment and put is face inches from Yusuke’s, “I kill it.”
Keith threw Yusuke smack into a tree. Before Yusuke could get up, Keith jumped on him. Yusuke felt Keith feet slam into his back. Keith then raked his claws down Yusuke’s back. Blood now dripped off his fingers and he put them up to he mouth. All that was going through Keith head was kill, kill, KILL. He raised his hand again.
“Time to finish this,” he muttered.
His hand raced for the spot he knew Yusuke’s heart laid. He stopped inches before Yusuke flesh. His ears twitched slightly.
“Darn,” He muttered.
He was almost attempted to stay and kill Yusuke, but Eve wouldn’t like that. Eve and Logan were the only people Keith feared. Sigh heavily Keith got off of Yusuke.
“Worry for I’ve got my eyes set on you and I always get what I aim for,” he said as smoke came up around him and disappeared.
I'm really proud of this chapter. I think I did Keith's evilness well and if Keith fears Eve and Logan that means they are worse than him. Poor Yusuke though. He got hurt really bad, but it's a small price when it comes to making a good story. Beside Yusuke is bound to bounce back. He aways does. Please comment, I want to know (I like to know) your thoughts about the chapter (and the story). I hope you have a good day.
I almost lost my floppy (the one with my story on it). See I left it at the library (not on purpose) Saturday. ^_^ Lucky for me it was still there (although I had to wait 'til Today to get it back). Due to that I don't have any new chapters writen, but I post it up the as soon as I can.
PS. This is a true story. I really did leave it at the library. -_-, I need a better memory. One that'll rememember that I have a floppy in the floppy drive.
