Chapter 7

During the past year I have mainly been training in Kata and how to move during a fight. i was able to beat Turya in close quarters rather easily but I mainly put it up to my insane strength as I was able to punch rocks into dust rather easily.

The foot work that jurn had taught me was focused on moving around the opponents attack and striking them while they couldn’t stop their current attacks, this didn’t really work on Tura as she had a quick strike fighting style where she wouldn’t stop moving while attacking, she told me that this was her family way of fighting for generations and that she would continue to pass it on to her children, I noticed when she said this she had a slightly red face and wouldn’t look me in the eyes.

The next few months passed without much happening, I was personally getting rather bored staying here and wanted to see my mother and I could tell that Turya was the same as she would keep getting up in the middle of the night and try to slip away so that she could cry without anyone hearing her do so, but I’ve decided that I would ask jurn if we could have some time off to visit our families that we haven’t seen in a while.

I walked intot eh cave as that was where he usually stayed and saw him with a pair of red goggles on and a drill in one hand trying to extend the cave using just his strength, I walked over to him and tapped him with my foot he turned around and looked at me.

Jurn-‘’ I’m sorry but I don’t want what your selling’’ he said as he turned around again.

Xar-‘’ not funny, but I want to ask you something’’ I said as I kicked him in the ribs causing him to grab them and turn round to me.

Jurn-‘’ what is it’’ he said as he took the goggle off.

Xar-‘’ I wanted to ask you if it was alright to head back into the forest so that me and turya could meet our families again as it been nearly four years since we last saw them’’

Jurn-‘’ sure go ahead it will give me time to set up your final tests any who’’

Xar-‘’thanks’’ I said to him as I ran out of the cave to grab some of the stuff we would need to travel back.

As soon as I had a couple of bags with se foods and clothes ready I turned into my dragon form and went to look for turya, I found her in the forest playing with a baby rabbit but as soon as she saw me she ran up to me and climbed on my back. This made me rather happy as I was able to spend more time with her. I took off and began to fly towards the heart of the forest where the capital of the elves was as it was where I was born and raised.

Turya-‘’ where are we going’’ she asked me as I felt her arms tighten around my neck.

Xar-‘’ jurn said we could head back home for a while as he sets up our final test’’ I said as I beat my wings rhythmically to the beat of my heart.

Turya-‘’ you will have to let me meet your mother then’’ she said to me as she rested her head against my back.

The next few days were rather monotonous as all we did was talk about was how our training was going and stuff like that while flying towards the city. It didn’t take long for us to get near the city when we saw a blue dragon appear before us.

Xar-‘’ hello sahpira’’ I said to her as we drew closer.

Sahpira-‘’ is that the young dragon I brought to the mountains?’’ she asked me as we slowly got closer to the city.

Xar-‘’ yes it is’’ I landed out site the temple that hadn’t changed at all , I quickly noticed that there was a rather large crowd gather around the temple but they weren’t look at us but in the temple. I looked in the temple and what I saw surprised me.

My mother was wearing a white dress and standing infront of a man who of the orb that I had touch so long ago, from the looks of things I could tell that the man was a noble a rather young one from the looks of things as he had rather darkish skin that was not of the royal elves like me and mother.

I walked into the temple still in my dragon form and began to pad up the path toward where they were standing, each step I took was met with a very audible clack of claw on stone. Every head in the temple turned around to see me from their perspective it must have been surprising to see a large emerald scaled dragon walking towards them. The noble then looked at me and began to smile.

Noble-‘’ oh great and noble dragon, I see you have come here to celebrate my marriage t this lesser form of elf’’ he said with a smile on his face, but what he said enraged me as no one has the right to belittle my loving mother who raised me by herself for five years. I looked over at mother and saw that she had a look of sadness and regret on her face.

I moved my maw in front of the noble and roared into his face as loud as I could, this caused him to stumble backwards in surprise and trip over his own feet. I then placed me frnt claw on his chest in a way so that if he moved it would pierce him.

Xar-‘’ Don’t you ever disrespect my mother in front of me!!’’ I yelled at him while still in my dragonic form.

Mother-‘’ Xarjurn? Is that you?’’ my mother asked me

I turned my head to look at her and nuzzled her with me snout, she lifted her hand and began to scratch my chin which felt incredible as I could fell the love she felt for me being sent through this little contact. The noble was looking at me confused.

Noble-‘’ but I thought her son was a humanoid’’

Xar-‘’ im half dragon so its understandable if I can go into this form’’ I said as I set my mother on my back where Turya still was even if she was asleep.’’ now might i ask what the hell you think your doing to my mother’’

Noble-‘’ hmm why should I have to answer a half breed like you, al your mother is is a rather beautiful cow only useful for breeding’’ he spat at meas he clearly didn’t understand his situation.

Xar-‘’ so you want me to kill you’’ I replied to him as I slowly lowered my claws, he began to scream in pain as the slowly entered his body. It didn’t take to long for him to die and I turned around and let out a low growl so that the rest of the people gathered would stat put.

Xar-‘’ now if someone would lie to tell me who he was and why he was doing that I would be most grateful’’ I said to the crowd in front of me.

A noblewoman came up and I saw that the other elves were bowing to her.

Noble woman-‘’that man was the 3rd prince of this kingdom and he was being generous and letting the trash that is now on your back join the royal family’’ .she said with as much confidence as she could muster.

Xar-‘’ you do realise the last person to insult my mother like that is dead’’ I said to her with a monotone voice.

Noble woman-‘’ shut it half breed, the king will condemn you to death for killing his son, the dragon will cast you into hell for this crime’’ she said to me as she got a small smile on her face.

Xar-‘’ the dragon god is my father you dumb shit’’ I said to her, as I said these words the colour from her face drained instantly. I raised my claw to kill her to but my mother asked me stop so I did.

As I was lowering my claw I could hear the sounds of metal being rubbed against each other and in through the temple entrance came in around 15 guards armed with swords. The quickly surrounded me with their weapon pointed in my direction. Then a elf wearing a dark purple robe and a silver crown shaped to look like a dragon came in and walked towards me. It was clear that he was the king.

King-‘’ Xarjurn are sentenced to death for killing my son may you rot in he..’’ I didn’t let him finish his sentence before I had bitten him in half as I was sick of these pretentious bastard thinking they could insult and berate my mother and think they could get away with it. All the guards looked at me but didn’t do anything as I walked past them and headed towards where Turya had told me her house was.
