Chapter 12 - Original

Excaelum hasn't been seen for a while since the attack on the frontier. He was sitting still on the moon, just sitting in one spot. He was meditating.

"Father, I've been doing this for awhile now. When are you going to teach me how to use my power?"

Since he was on the moon, Excaelum didn't need to wait for a full moon to see the one he had a strong memory of, Shadow and Dawn have to wait for a full moon to speak to theirs.

"In time. This power if used incorrectly, can end the lives of the ones you love."

"I'm I the only one with this power?"

"No. Shadow and Dawn have this power. And another three do also. Shadow and Dawn are allies, the others intend harm to you and them."

"Who are the others?"

"You know one very well, Garren. He and the others haven't awaken their powers."

"When will they wake?"

"Positives mostly activate when in a time of need but Dawn, her power activated without needing it. That remains a mystery of why it happened. Negatives activate when the user wants to do harm to another being. You are all connected."

Excaelum sat their awhile longer, quiet. He wanted to ask a few questions not about the power but, the first organization of dragons.

"You never told me about your generation. We have time we should talk."

"I was one of the original dragons so is Chronin. We excelled our power, size, wisdom, etc. Our members were far more powerful than yours."

"How so?"

"Pyrodia's flame, are you familiar with it?"

"Yes."

"His flame was cold compared to my own and Flamekken(fla-mech-kin). Flamekken was magnificent, her flames were burning of vivid red, yellow, and orange. Her scales too were also bright as her flames and the slight blue in her eyes were contradicting the rest of her body. She was about the same size as me, well we all were similar sizes except for Chronin, who we called the runt of our group. Flamekken was a happy one, usually she was the one who kept on making nicknames for us. Flamekken died a peaceful death, she passed in her sleep. We were all saddened but, an egg was by her corpse the one inside was as you know today, Pyrodia. The original rock dragon named him."

"Who was that?"

"Yaforn(ya-forn). She named him Pyrodia because, of his dark scales and his aggressiveness, I had to teach him the basics of fire none of the other originals could use fire. Yaforn was odd, she would disappear for the longest time coming back even more negative. Her scales were rough, they were brown and tan striped. Her eyes were a beautiful shade of yellow that looked like they were the sun. The stripes were distorted and uneven but, that made her significant from the rest of the rock dragons. Her death was wrong, she was killed in her sleep by her own offspring, Mesadraco. That's why I was not happy when he killed your solitary. It reminded me of his evil laugh when we found him standing over the body of Yaforn. We had to keep him alive before we found a replacement, Staok seemed to be more of an appropriate choice than his lord, that's why I gave him Mesa's place. Funny how Pyro, Aqua, Mesa, and Zartez all grew up together and they ended up in the same hole as each other."

"Why did you kill Zartez?"

"I didn't, you did. It seemed like you didn't like seeing a comrade leaving his allies."

"Did you hate that?"

"Of course I did, that's why I let you kill him. His father also hated that, Okin. He was strict when it came to Zartez but, when he was with us, the originals, he was optimistic and telling stories. He once told us a story of how he kept on electrocuting Zar in his sleep to teach him a lesson when he was behaving in a intolerable matter. His scales were dark violet and his eyes were blue. He was always blending in with the sky as we were cruising them during the night."

"Sounds like you had quite a time during your rule."

"Even as dragons we needed to have some form of entertainment because we didn't worry about other affairs, we just minded our own business. That has changed since your group came into power."

"We are no longer united now."

Pyrodia and Aquabellina were talking to another mysterious dragon.

"He killed two of your lords?"

"Yes, we did not intend for that to happen. At first we were working with you to bring the star dragons back but-" the mysterious dragon stopped Pyro.

The mysterious dragon was laughing maniacally,"HAHA!! You two are fools, the stars can never be brought back. HAHAHA!!"

"Why have you lied to us?" Aqua was angry.

"To get mercy awaken. What're you two going to do about it? It's not like you can defeat me."

"We'll see about that." Pyro shot a ball of flame at him, the fire did not effect his target. Pyro was scared.

"That was very foolish of you." the dragon had a evil look in his face.

The dragon charged towards Pyro, tackled him on the ground, and blew a dark blue flame in his face until the roar of the fire dragon stopped. Pyro's body was set on fire by the dragon, his body was burning fast and the heat from the flame made Aquabellina step back.

"What have you done?!" Aqua was shaking.

"I simply punished a traitor, will you be joining him?"

Aqua summoned the moisture from the air and went into a fighting stance.

"I take that as a yes."

The dragon charged towards Aqua, she avoided the enemy and landed a clean mark of her claws on his neck.

"That's all you got?" the dragon chuckled.

He forced Aquabellina on the ground without moving.

"Your family will not be pleased with your betrayal Orcusin(or-kiss-in)."

"I don't plan on pleasing."

Aqua wasn't able to move, she was overpowered. The dragon went over to her, used it's claws to grasp her head, it started turning her head. It kept turning Aqua's head until there was a sound that told the killer that the neck has broken.

"One member doesn't make a family." it said.

Dragaitas or rather his spirit has just finished reminiscing of his friends in the first group of forces. Excaelum continued to sit there. A day or two passed by.

"This meditation is to calm your mind, clear it of all disturbances, and to test your patience. You have proven yourself ready for the next phase of your training."

"Have you had this power before?"

"No."

"How do you know about the training then?"

"The original creators of this magic cast a spell having a close one to the users heart teach them. I was given the gift to watch you grow until it was time. The knowledge of each power is passed to only the one chosen to teach the current user."

"What happens after you're done with this task?"

"I will be able to rest."

Excaelum slowly raised himself and looked down at the planet below. It was covered in blue, the water, and white streaks, the clouds. Suddenly he saw a beam of black shoot into the atmosphere.
