New Discoveries and old Friends

Chapter 1:

“HA! You can’t beat me!” Derek shouted at Vladimir, who has lost every single flying race that they held to Derek and was working on extending that streak, in a sing-song voice.

“It doesn’t help that you’re smaller and more agile than I am,” Vladimir grumbled as he rolled his shoulders back in order to flare his wings so that he could hover in front of his mate.

“Hey, you have your wizard friend to thank for it,” Derek replied and put his hands on his hips as he effortlessly hovered in the air in front of Vladimir.

“Yeah, well, who knew that he would want to do what he did?” Vladimir replied referring to his former wizard friend, Marvin, who is now, hopefully, dead and—hopefully—suffering in the darkest parts of Hell.

“Hey, you want to race back home?” Derek asked eagerly. Vladimir just groaned and rolled his eyes.

“If you insist,” he mumbled and Derek pumped his fist then quickly glided next to Vladimir.

“3, 2, 1, GO!” Derek yelled and quickly sped off before Vladimir was even ready.

“Hey!” Vladimir roared as he flew off to try and catch up to his mate. “Cheater!”

Derek wheeled around and stuck his reptilian-like tongue out at the bigger dragon.

“Be ready next time will you?” Derek yelled back at his mate before wheeling back around and speeding off towards the cave that they shared together.

“Que Panomo!” Derek shouted the magical phrase that would open the magically sealed doors that concealed their cave from unwanted prying eyes as he got closer to their cave.

Nothing happened.

“Que Panomo!” Derek shrieked, terrified of what might have happened. Nothing like this has happened before, so why now?

Vladimir was too far back to really do anything, so the only choice that Derek had was to try and slow down before smashing into the face of the cliff. Emphasis on the word try.

He flared his wings and locked his knees into the skidding position (you know, heels digging into the ground with smoke coming out from behind) as if he was on solid ground.

It didn’t help.

Time seemed to slow down as the rock came closer and closer, and there was nothing he could do but scream.

“Derek!” Vladimir yelled before shouting out the password and opening the door before Derek slammed into the rock face.

Derek skidded into the cave where he fell to the floor and collapsed, shaken from the experience of seeing his life flash before his eyes.

“Sorry,” Vladimir said as he landed next to his mate. “I forgot that I haven’t added your voice to the allowed voice commands.”

He waved his paw and added Derek’s voice to the door’s security system.

“There, it’s fixed,” Vladimir told his mate as Derek shakily stood up.

“Thanks,” Derek said and used Vladimir’s flank to steady himself. “Hopefully that won’t happen again.”

“Hopefully,” Vladimir agreed.

“Mommy!” came the cry of a silver dragon with ice-blue eyes in the direction of the egg room before a silver blur appeared headed in Derek’s direction, nearly tackling him to the ground.

“Whoa!” Derek said as he gently grabbed the little dragon. “Easy there! You don’t want to hurt me now do you Sylvan?”

“Sorry,” Sylvan replied. “I thought you had forgotten about me.”

“We would never forget about you little one,” Vladimir replied.

Sylvan hatched from his egg six months after Marvin vanished in a brilliant display of light and Derek laid his own egg. Sylvan was one of the eggs among the ones that were moved to the secret egg room before the flood to turn Dragon Valley into Reptilian Lake, now Dragon Lake. Reptilian Lake was officially renamed as Dragon Lake two months prior to Sylvan hatching with heavy support from the DBS, the Dragon Believers Society. Derek’s mother and Alicia just so happen to be new members of the society.

“I take it you missed us little one?” Vladimir asked the silver dragon.

“Uh huh,” Sylvan replied, enthusiastically nodding his head.

Vladimir chuckled.

“If it wasn’t for your mother always wanting to race everywhere we go,” Vladimir began and looked at his mate with narrowed eyes. “We would have been home much sooner.”

“Hey, it’s not my fault that I want to race,” Derek replied and put Sylvan on the ground. “If I could still drive, I would be racing my friends every weekend at the local track. But since I can’t, I have to make up for it somehow.”

“Yeah, but every time we go somewhere together? Isn’t that a little too much?” Vladimir asked.

“No,” Derek said defensively. “I just need something to keep me entertained.”

“You have the library.”

“I mean something more than just reading all kinds of books. I would be able to read through that entire library in a year or less.”

“Well, if you were a full blooded dragon, I could keep you entertained every day,” Vladimir said, purring sensually indicating what he wanted to do if Derek was a full dragon, which he is not.

“Vladimir,” Derek said embarrassed. “Not in front of Sylvan.”

“Why not?”

“He’s too young.”

“He’s a dragon.”

“I don’t care. He’s too young.”

“What did you mean by ‘drive’?” Sylvan asked, interrupting his parents’ argument.

“It’s a way humans get from place to place faster than they do by walking,” Derek explained seeing as he knows more about human stuff than Vladimir as he used to be a human. “You see, humans have two—actually six—modes of transportation: walking, bicycles, automobiles, planes, trains, and boats.”

“What are those things you said at the end?”

“What bicycles, automobiles, planes, trains, and boats?”

“Yeah.”

“Well, bicycles are self-powered vehicles that humans use to help get fit. Automobiles come in all kinds of different forms. There are cars, trucks, SUVs, and vans. Planes are metallic machines that can fly just like we can. Trains can go super-fast along metal tracks. Boats allow the humans to cross oceans, lakes, and rivers without actually entering the water.”

“Wow. Humans rely a lot on technology.”

“Yeah, they do,” Derek said rather glumly and looked away briefly before heading in the direction of the library.

He retrieved the same spell book that contained the pregnancy potion that Marvin brewed with help from Vladimir.

“You want to be pregnant again, don’t you?” asked Vladimir as he entered the library and walked to stand behind his mate.

“Yes, I do,” Derek replied sadly. “But I also want to be a full dragon too.”

“Why do you want to be a full dragon?”

“So we don’t have to rely on this potion all the time in order to have an egg.”

Derek then noticed Marvin’s enchanted chalice in one of the glass cabinets and walked over to it.

“Should I use this chalice when I drink the potion and finish the transformation?” Derek asked Vladimir.

“I don’t think you should just yet,” Vladimir said. “We don’t know if your transformation will be completed or if it will kill you like what Marvin originally intended.”

“Alright,” Derek said depressed. “What will I drink the potion out of then?”

“I think I have a solution,” Vladimir said and walked over to the library’s storage room. He rummaged around until he found what he was looking for.

“I found this while swimming in Dragon Lake,” Vladimir said and handed Derek the goblet. “So, would you like to be pregnant again?”

Before Derek could give his mate an answer, Sylvan entered the library.

“Weren’t you going to teach me and mommy how to breathe fire today?” asked Sylvan.

Vladimir looked at his mate before turning back to the silver dragon.

“I was, wasn’t I?” Vladimir asked in reply.

“Yes, you were,” Derek nodded. “I would like to see how you dragons really breathe fire.”

“You do know that you are one of us now, right?” Vladimir asked his mate as he headed towards the library door.

“Not fully,” Derek muttered before setting the book and goblet next to each other on a nearby table and running after his mate and Sylvan for fire breathing lessons.

When I come back, I will start on the potion, Derek thought to himself as he leaped out of the cave and flew to the top of the cliff.
