The Unexpected

"Your final destination was a lie.."

✦ ✧ ✦

The sky was clouded by a dark colour and it became colder but warmer too. The temperature was really weird according to Gavril. The sky was pitch black as we flew further.

All of the sudden in the distance stood an average sized city. It had a large tower in the middle with the city around it. A dark purple colour flew through it as the city was surrounded by mountains. We flew down in front of the mountain before going into the city.

"Okay, Rowan you'll take Madlock because he won't be attacked if we're lucky considering he's a dragon. We will go through the city and get to the tower. Imber you can go but Arka needs to stay here." Arka screeched angry and layed down.

"What do I do when I get on top of the Tower?" I asked.

"You'll enter at the balcony, i think there is one and if there isn't take this to cut a hole so you can get in. And when you're inside, hide until you see us." She gave me her crystal blade and I nodded.

They all took place on Imber and took off to go around the mountain. I sat on Madlock and stroked his back.

"Please don't kill me." Madlock clapped his wings and took off straight up into the sky. We flew closer to the tower as I saw hundreds of dragons and wyverns fly around the tower and city. I layed on Madlock's back and didn't move as much as I could. Some dragons came extremely close but none of them saw me.

We came closer to the tower when I suddenly felt something grabbing my clothes. Madlock roared as he turned around and I got grabbed by a dragon's claws. It was a dark purple wyvern. He roared mad and flew away at an immense speed. His body showed flickering lightning. It was a lightning wyvern, shit.

Madlock chased the wyvern as I tried to grab the crystal blade out of my jacket. If I could stab him in his leg he would let me go and Madlock could catch me.

I finally reached the blade and stabbed the wyvern not too far into his leg. The wyvern roared and threw me in the air. Before I fell down I saw the wyvern opening his mouth ready to swallow me whole. That was as scary as the huge dragon that almost ate us all at once.

Right before he could eat me Madlock bit into his neck and threw him away into the air. I fell down to the ground as I heard Madlock roar. Before I could turn around in mid air Madlock flew underneath me as I landed on his back.

"Thank you Madlock, thank you." My breathing was fast while I just wanted to relax from the fear of this trip to the tower. Madlock flew towards the tower and landed right on top of it. Now we need to find the balcony.

Celeste's POV

Me, Lee and Gavril sat on Imber and flew above the mountain. We went down and stood behind a large house. We all jumped off and I told Imber to go back to Arka. Imber screeched quietly and took off.

I closed my eyes and crossed my arms in front of my chest in the form of an X. White smoke surrounded my whole body and disappeared instantly. I changed my clothes colour, everything was now black with red in between. "That was amazing," Gavril whispered. Lee already had dark colours and Gavril already had his normal clothes.

We sneaked into the town and walked normally towards the tower. People looked at us but weren't really amused.

"My house is that way, thank you for the food and ride home." He smiled and shook our hands. Now it was only me and Lee. We are a good team. He taught me everything about fights and weapons with Mother Meira. I don't know what I would do without him by my side. He's like a father figure to me but a best friend too. We can have serious conversations but laugh as well. Now it's serious.
