[1 year.]
"This . . . this is strange . . ." muttered Baltus.
"Why do we see these things?" wondered Flarus out loud.
That's when they caught an unfamiliar scent in the air.
The pair had been unable to detect it earlier, thanks to the heavy rain, but because Nake was so close, not even rain could prevent the scent from reaching their incredibly adept nostrils.
Flarus snarled. "Something is close by." He started sniffing the air harder, searching for the source of the smell. "I have a feeling that whatever it is, it is somehow connected to these strange . . . .visions." It was a reasonable conclusion. After all, in their lifetime, the two had come to know the scent of nearly everything in the island chain. Something unfamiliar, then, was likely not from the Islands . . . .

Nake screamed in agony and it was blocked out by the thunder of the storm outside. His form twisted and changed into what looked like a silver Draconian even his scent had changed. His and Terran's kind are elemental Shapeshifters called Geron who passed on their DNA in a process more complex then usual then when contact is made with a intelligent being a genetic recording of sorts is made and when enough of these are made for at least some of the people with these genes the baby is inserted lies dormant until one capable of carrying the offspring touches the mother regardless of gender. This is usually the last one to give genetic information. In this way a geron child typical has three to five parents. Each child magically is randomly infused with elemental kinetic abilities and sometimes dormant ability of genetic memory.

The heads of both Draconians snapped up at the sound of the scream. Not even thunder could drown out a noise that close.
With a snarl, Flarus motioned for Baltus to follow him as he marched through the jungle growth, heading for the source of the noise as he extended his shiny black claws to their full length . . . .

"What am I?" Nake yelled in the draconian tongue without realizing he wasn't speaking english anymore. He ran out of the shelter after making a completely metal umbrella out of some of the strange liquid metal he and his friends had brought along with them. He then opened it up the umbrella and went for a walk and finally the storm cleared up.

Footsteps.
All of sudden, Flarus stepped out of the brush in front of Nake, while Baltus appeared behind him. Flarus was tell for a Draconian, standing at nine feet, and his frame was packed with muscle. His scales were bright crimson in color. meanwhile, Baltus was of average height and build, and his scales were sapphire blue.
"Who are you?" demanded Flarus, snarling aggressively as he flexed his claws. Behind him, Baltus stretched his wings, ready to take flight if he needed to.

"My name is Nake and my friends and I just found this Island earlier this morning and I just recently some how turned into one of your kind I have these strange memories and don't even know how I know your language." Nake replied honestly, but he wasn't sure if they would belive him.

Of course they didn't believe him. Who in their right mind would believe a ridiculous story like that?
"Liar," growled Flarus. "Well, if you refuse to be truthful, we shall take you to the Wise Ones, and they shall decide what will be done with you." With that, he nodded to Baltus, who started advancing on Nake slowly, ready to grab him and drag him back to their village . . . .

"Well, if you refuse to be truthful, we shall take you to the Wise Ones, and they shall decide what will be done with you." With that, he nodded to Balrus, who started advancing on Nake slowly, ready to grab him and drag him back to their village . . . . "I am not lying!" Nake said and then suddenly a half-sphere barrier of Liquid Metal formed around him and quickly solidified. The Reflective metal and low amount of sunlight caused by the pitch black surroundings of night made his barrier practically invisible. The barrier then liquified and formed into a sort of shell around Nake which made him hard to see.

[EDIT] The pair stood there, bewildered by the sudden appearance of the sphere before them.
"What . . . what trickery is this?" whispered Flarus. The two of them could only stare at this strange apparition.
"First, those strange visions," thought Bartus, "And now, this? Everything has been out of place ever since the arrival of those humans . . ."
Suddenly, Bartus' eyes widened further as a thought occurred to him. "Flarus," he said, "this may sound strange, but . . . what if he is referring to the outsiders that arrived at the island today? Perhaps he is one of them? His story seems to match . . ."
Flarus paused as he considered this, and narrowed his eyes as he looked straight at the sphere.
"You, if you're still in there . . . Is what Bartus says true?"

Master Nemesis Well, maybe for a human it would have been difficult to see, but these were Draconians. They were the greatest predators that evolution had ever produced. Born killing machines. Seeing in the dark presented little difficulty to them. As such, they were able to see the metal sphere with ease, and though they were a bit bewildered and confused by its sudden appearance, that didn't make them any less hesitant to do what they did next. Baltus swiped at the surface of the sphere with his deadly claws, a weapon that was sharp enough to cut steel like cardboard. Simultaneously, Flarus drew back a muscled arm that was strong enough to lift a pickup truck with ease, and punched the ball of metal with enough force to car flipping through the air. Would Nake's sphere be able to stand up to an assault like that? ((Why are we fighting? I thought you said this wasn't going to be a fight.))

((Sure..Thanks)) [Edit] "I am not sure which group of outsiders your talking about multiple groups of people could have arrived on this boat and no one was around this beach when we came, at least no one visible. For all I know their could have been something or someone invisible around. I belong to group of people who aligned together to stop evil and exchange knowledge of stuff of Various Stuff like History, Magic, Fighting, Culinary Arts, Martial Arts, Etc. We were off to a top secret training center in a remote Tropical Island that no one can see when their off it, Hence why we named it Youmashima, it means ghost island in the language in which the founder's home country speaks. It's said he comes from a different world. We have so many treasures stored their, Not to mention to the Hotsprings, Dojo, Cinema, Libraries, Defense System, Armory, 40 Bedrooms, Holographic Combat Similulation Room, etc. it's kind of small though compared to the main houshold of the founder. Not bad for a summer home though. People are often shy with our openess and often mistake it for being naive, but really their is good in almost anyone and we can take care of ourselves if we are betrayed by people we told our secret to." Nake replied after taking down his shield he knew if these guys would betray him his body wasn't exactly like a Draconians by combining his ability to control metal, with the near by metal, and his draconian body;(That is one punctuation mark I honestly never understood wear to use did I get that right?) he could do something's he never dreamed of. With this body he had gone to the next level.

Confronted with this sudden wealth of information, Flarus could only offer one response.
". . . . . What?"
Then again, maybe it would be wiser for Nake to pretend that he had come along with the other delegates. His story, however truthful, was actually quite likely to confuse them and arouse suspicion, whereas the delegates were expected, welcome guests . . . .

}After the meeting neh Nemeh? That's what we agreed on yes?{
Asherah stretched heftily as she exited the elders home. She was determined to be not a threat, that she was merely drifting at sea. And now she was granted exploration privileges. Dandy sun-erm, moonshine? It was late after all. The moon shown like an opal in the sky. It'd be prettier if she wasn't alone. With a sigh, Asherah slung her bag over her shoulder and walked to a small opening. Just a small rick in which she could rest her sleepy head, and a gap in the trees, so she could count the stars. In which she did, she did rest quietly for a moment, before digging into her bag, thus pulling out two dice. Asherah's eyes remained on them for quite sometime before they returned to the sky. One by one, the stars passed her yellow peripherals. It was nice though, the light they gave off. It was a whisper from the past, somethings so old, still held it's beauty. She wished she could say the same for herself. Her body may have stayed, but her mind rotted, it didn't hold it's place.
