Hey guys! Chapter 19 everyone! Enjoy!

Previously on Dark Veins:

The dragon shook her head, indicating she already had a name. The dragon took a tree branch that was nearby and started writing ruins. She wrote her name in ruins so that Jesse could understand what her name was.

"'My name is Glacier.'"Jesse translated.

"Glacier. That's a pretty name."she told the blue and white dragon.

Glacier nodded her head and laid back down, letting her ice tail wrap around Jesse's legs.

"This changes everything."Jesse said, realizing this would change everything she thought.

(No one's POV)

James was patching Soren's injured shoulder up when Xara knocked on the door to the hut they had made last night.

"Come in."James said, not bothering to look up as he continued to patch up Soren.

Xara walked in and set the basket of food on the table. She got to work taking out potatoes, apples, mushrooms, a cake she stole from a witch after splashing her with a potion of poison, and buckets of water. Lukas came in and raised a brow, setting his bow on his bed before walking over to his mom.

"Mom, how did you get all this food?"Lukas asked Xara as he picked a potato and tossed it the air, catching it.

Xara quickly grabbed the potato out of Lukas's hands and set it on the counter beside the sink, where she rinsed it off.

"Geez Xara. Don't need to be all paranoid."James remarked, patting Soren's shoulder to let the old man know he was done.

"Yes I do! Nobody else will make the food so that leaves me!"Xara shouted in annoyance.

As Xara worked on making food, Lukas headed out to the forest nearby. He grabbed his bow on the way out, saying bye to his mom shortly after.

"Wait! Lukas! You aren't leaving me with mister killer here are you?!"Xara exclaimed in shock.

"Yup! Sorry mom! See you later!"Lukas called.

Xara sighed frustrated. She stomped back to the kitchen and sliced the potato angrily.

Lukas was walking back and forth, obviously lost. He didn't know where he was until he heard a shout and a scream. Lukas ran after, gasping at who caused it.

"Petra?!"Lukas said in shock.
