Chapter 9 The Dragon Egg Sean faced the dump site. In there was everything snevils threw out. Gold crowns, swords, rotten food, leather clothes, gorillafint tusks, bones, and monsters. Hopefully the egg would be easy to find. Sean walked in and something hit him on the head. It landed right in front of his feet. It was a mirror. He looked into the mirror. It was broken. He saw something though. He began looking for another mirror. When he found one that was still intact, he looked into it. His hair had turned lighter brown than normal, and his eyes were a pale blue. What happened to his dark brown hair and deep blue eyes? Then, he thought about that poisen. That must have been it. Sean puched the mirror, shattering it, and continued on his way. He looked at everything he passed by. After three hours of looking, he found a mound in the center of the dump site. At the top he saw some gleam that was not metal. Sean began to clime the mound. It was easy at first. Then, half way up the mound, Sean heard some odd growling. He stopped, turned to the right, and some reptilian creacher with green skin was right next to him, holding onto the mound with it's two clawed legs. It had no arms, one set of legs, a set of red eyes, and a set of sharp looking jaws. Sean began to clime faster. The monster was keeping a close distance to Sean. Sean grabbed his new ax. The monster was now next to Sean. It jumped at Sean. Sean swung his ax at the monster's head. He almost hit it. The monster bit into Sean's arm, causing large marks, with three gashes, in his arms, bleeding at a painful rate. Sean closed his eyes, only to open them to see thge monster frozen in mid air. Mysterious Stranger was standing at the top of the mound."Shame. To think that I need to interfer. But, zards aren't normaly in the north." Sean blinked."Zards?" Mysterious Stranger looked at him. Sean could see shining orbs where his eyes were suppose to be."Reptiliancreachers normaly in the south. Snevils use them sometimes as guard dogs. not offten though." Sean flinched in pain. His arm was still bleeding. Mysterious Stranger pointed one of his hands at Sean. A black fluid began to cover Sean's wound. When the fluid covered the whole wound, it vanished. "I would suggest you rap that arm immediatly."Mysterious Stranger pointed his hand at the zard. A black spear appeared out of it's chest."I'll be seeing you again soon Sean." Mysterious Stranger vanished, and the zard fell to the ground dead. Sean pulled off the armor on his left arm, he weilds his weapon in his right hand, and ripped some cloth off his shirt. He rapped around his arm and prepaired to continue climbing. He put his armor back on over his arm. When Sean was at the top, his arm stung, reviling that his arm was bleeding, at least a little bit. Sean walked up to the gleam. The egg was pink with greyish grenn sploches on it. Sort of like a bird egg. Sean went up, and felt an odd flow of magic for a second. Somehow, he knew this egg was a dragon's. Sean went in to grab the egg. Just then, a giant bird grabbed the egg. Sean blinked, then, puc=nched the junk, breaking open more wounds, but he didn't notice. Sean looked down the mound of junk. How was he going to get down there with out hurting himself? He closed his eyes. A sudden flow of odd energy flowed through him. He opened his eyes to find himself floathing down. He looked to both his side to see nothing there. He closed his eyes again to feel a sudden flow of energy again. Sean was now standing only five miles away from Valencia's camp. He put the questions in his mind away, and began to ran twoards the small camp. When he arrived, Valencia said,"Ohh, hellow Sean. Have you-" Sean wasn't listening. He pulled off the armor on his left arm. Valencia was looking at Sean's arm. It was coveredwith bloodied bandages."What-?" Sean pulled off the cloth. his wounds were bleeding a fast rate. He had about two minutes before he would pass out and three minutes before he was dead. Sean closed his eyes. Valencia was shocked to see this. A light glowed in Sean's arm, healing the wound. Sean opened his eyes. His wound was healed. He looked at valencia."Greetings Valencia. Can you tell me what happened to my wounds?" Valencia gave him a confused lookand told him about the light. Sean looked interested."You mind keeping this a secret. Weird things like this have happened all my life. I have never known why." Valencia looked scared."Sure. you mind telling me of these incidents though?" Sean nodded."The first was a winter about 15 years ago. I was roaming throught the forest. I was mad at my father because he told me I couldn't help him hunt. I had been traveling for about an hour when I finaly calmed down. I was in the middle of a blizzard. When I was facing certain death, I passed out. Then, I felt warm. "I opened my eyes to see three arcs of fire over me. From then on weird things have happened on every ocasion. And it all started when i was in danger. "When a bear was going to attack me, when I ten, a tree feel on it, but the tree had a perfect cut, slanted so it fell in a certain spot. "When I was eleven, I was almost struck by lightning, but a sheild of water formed over me. "When a horse was about to hit me square in the chest, the horse was hit a three fist sized rocks, sending it running away. "And at the junkyard, I ran into some beats called a zard. I killed it with a beam of energy. Then the sudden floating down the mound of junk. And the appearing five miles from your camp, And, most recently, that light." Valencia was to stunned to speak. She had never encountered such a man. "I've only told one other person about this. And it was Rolith." Valencia hugged Sean. She was crying. Sean was blushing."Valencia?" Valencia looked him in the eyes."Forgive me, but it seemed like you were in pain when you talked about your parents." Sean became less embarased."They were all i had and that man toke it from me. Thank fully he is dead." Valencia asked him,"What was his name?" Sean looked at her."Death of Life." Valencia seemed surprized."Why was he named that?" Sean shock his head."I don't know. But he was strong." Sean told her his story. When he finished, Valencia began to cry again. Sean put a hand on her shoulder."Are you okay?" She looked at him."Why?" Sean was confused."Why what?" Valencia seemed even more sad."Why should someone as nice as you go through such hell?" Sean looked away from her."I don't know. all i knopw now is to protect so no one will ever go through my hell ever again." Valencia hugged him again. Robina, listening from behind the gold statue came out and said,"I'm sorry Sean."She gave him a hug as well. Seeing these two cry, made Sean begin to cry as well."thank you you two." When Sean went to sleep, he dreamt of the girl with purple hair. she wore a black pendent around her neck. The two were a feild of battle. She had a small wound on her left wound. Sean healed it. The girl kissed him. The two then seperated and went to fight. Sean woke up to the smell of eggs. Robina was cooking up three large eggs. Sean saw that his armor had been romoved and his shirt changed. "I hope you like it Sean."Valencia was standing behind him."My father left some stuff behind that fits you perfectly." "What of my old shirt?" "It was torn and covered with blood. So I sent it to the snevil dump site." Sean nodded."Okay. then what do you want this shirt back?" Valencia laughed."No. My father left a lot of his clothes behind, he won't miss one shirt." Sean nodded. He put his chest armor back on and went to get one of those eggs Robina was cooking. After they ate, sean told them of the bird taking the dragon egg. Valencia was thinking."So, your egg was taken by a vultragon?" Sean nodded. Valencia continued."Then your egg would have been taken to Mount Moordoor." "Mount what?"Sean was confused. valencia looked up."It is a mountain covered with doors. Some wizard enchanted the doors so people could go around the mountain as they pleased. but the doors send you to another one of the many doors there." Sean sighed. Robina looked at Valencia."Should we let him go alone?" Valencia shock her head."No. He dosen't know the mountain like I do. We should help him out." Robina nodded. Sean looked at them."You have no need to accompany me. I can handel this on myh own." Robina shock her head."You almost got killed by a zard. Vultragons are stronger and more aggresive. They make zards look weak." Sean laughed."That zard only got me because I didn't expect it." Valencia sighed."Still, you need a guide." Sean looked at her."True. But Robina dosn't need to waste her time trying to help me out." Sean looked at where mount Moordoor was. It was in the snevil dump site. But, Valencia knew a short cut to it. After a couple of hours, sean and Valencia left the camp. Valencia led the way. Taking her short cut proved to be better than what Sean did. they arrived at the dump site in only a couple hours. Mount Moordoor was right in front of the two of them. Sean didn't wait for Valencia, he just ran right up to the mountain. Just as Valencia had said, a lot of doors covered the mountain. Sean ran up to one of the doors. he walked through. He appeared at the top of a pile of junk. A vulragon attacked him, but not the one that toke his egg. Sean faced the vultragon. when it was able to reach him with it's claws, Sean beheaded it. Sean walked throught a second door that was on the pile. He appeared to be closer to the peak of Mount Moordoor. Two vultragons attacked him. He sliced the wings off both birds. He kept on walking through doors, vultragons didn't mess with him. Sean faced a vultragon larger than the others. Sean held Shadowreaper high enough that the bird saw it. The vultragon gave him an evil look. Sean shouted,"Give me back my dragon egg!" The vultragon flew up into the air. Sean was ready for it to attack. The vultragon begun to spin while diving at Sean. Sean blocked the bird with his ax. Sean sliced off the tip of the bird's beak. The vultragon gripped Sean's arm with it's claw, with bone crushing force. Sean's bones did not break. Instead, an ring of fire formed around the vultragon. It became smaller until it was around the bird's stomache. The vultragon flew away. The fire vanished. Sean walked up to the eggs. Six eggs. Then, one of the eggs fell out of the nest. Five eggs. Sean sighed."How am I going to tell the difference between these eggs?" Sean grabbed them. Valencia was waiting for him at the base of the mountain. Sean showed her the eggs. The two toke the short cut back to the camp. After telling Robina the story, she said,"I can only think of one person who can deal with this problem." Valencia nodded."Warlic." Sean didn't need to ask. Everyone knew about the wizard Warlic. He was a legend in Oaklore. Sean had a small dinner of ham with his three new friends. The three slept under the stars. Sean dreamt of the girl again. Who was she? Sean woke up the next morning, ate a small breakfeast, and walked back to Falconreach. He toke the eggs with him. He had to find Warlic. Hopefuly, he would know which egg was the dragon egg.
