Welcome to Gaia! ::

this is the first assignment for a writing class im taking online( very good school, i get 6 college crdits with this) it a prestigous writing school for publication.!!!!! Woot!
my first assingment is a short story, this is the first part, plaese tell me what you think.

It was nighttime; the stars shown beautifully and the moon glowed heavenly. We visit a house sitting in the middle of a valley with no neighbors and nothing to disturb it. No lights were lit in the house except for one that seemed to travel about the home. The visible light was traveling to a room. It was the bedroom of two children. The light grew bigger as it entered the bedroom. The pitter-patter of feet could be heard along with little voices.
The bedroom was close into itself, just big enough to fit two to four people. With little drawing, lanterns and a bunk bed, it gave you a “homey” feeling. The two children got on their beds, bouncing on their bellies and their backs.
“All right now, everyone settle down.” Said the mother to her two children
“But, Nama, I don’t feel tired.” Said the little boy.
“Neither do I Nama.” Said the little girl
“But we all have to sleep, sleep gives our bodies energy for the day ahead.” Replied the mother
“We’ll alright, but can’t we have a story? A nice one? Pwitty please?” asked the little girl.
“Yeah, I want one with mountains and meadows and creatures!” said the boy “but nothing two scary, okay?” the boy then said under his breath.
The mother or “Nama” as the children called her gave a small giggle.
“Very well, I tell something that will fill your dreams with enchantment.” She said as she smiled at the two. “Alright’, now what should I tell about?”
Nama pulled up a stool as she though about what to tell. She walked over to a window in the room to look out side at the moon and stars for ideas. Then she looked out side at the valley and to the distant forest, but still no ideas. She then decided to make up something and build on it as she went.
“Nama, are you gunna tell us a story or not?” impatiently asked the girl.
The mother just smiled back and said, “Just a minute Phane, okay?”
Nama then walked back to her stool, sat down and took a heavy breath. She blew out her candle and let the two children’s lanterns stay lit.
“Why you blow it out?” asked the boy
“Because you two need two fall asleep, so just relax Bain as I tell the story.” Replied Nama
She looked at her children, and they looked back. She then began to tell her story.

---8/20/09

“Once, in times that no one has ever seen, in a land not like ours, there were two petite dragons. One was black with purple wings and green eyes. Her name was Ember. The other one was green with black wings and purple eyes. His name was Sraco. The two were very close to each other; they were great friends because they only knew each other and no one else. Both looked out fro each other, and they shared everything with each other. They lived in a valley, much like ours, where the sun shown brightly every day and they would play endlessly in its light. At night, their moons…”
“They have more than one moon?” asked Bain
“Yes, they have two.” Nama replied: then she continued her story. “…And at night, their moons glowed brightly for them. They would sleep next to each other, sharing the same dream and continually playing in it as they would during the day. They lived like this for many years, no one interrupted their joy with turmoil, and they never thought of outside problems.”

“I wish that were my life.” said Phane
“Well, what’s wrong with your life now?” asked Bain
“Nothing, it just sounds like Ember and Sraco’s lives areso much fun.” Replied Phane.
Then Nama again continued her story for the children.
“Then one day, Ember could not be found, it was as if she just disappeared. Sraco looked everywhere, behind trees, all over the valley, he searched and he searched for quit a long time. Then he just stopped and began to sob.” Told Nama

“ Where would she go? What will I do?” Sraco questioned, “Why did she leave? I’ve never been apart from her.”

“Then he heard a voice. Out of nowhere, he heard her voice.” Narrated Nama

“Hey Sraco, SRACO!” the voice called out
“Ember? Wh-Where are you?” he called out
“Up here you big dummy! What? Can’t stand not being near your friend, crybaby.” Ember said with a sarcastic tone and chuckle to go with it.

“Ember had taken flight using her wings, she had been flying over Sraco’s head without making a sound.” Told Nama

“Ember, how you get up there? You…can fly?” Sraco asked
“I suppose so, I guess this is what these things on our backs are for.”
“Do you think I can fly too?”
“Try it and find out. I know I can, I’ll say that.”
“How did you start, as in what’s the first thing I should do?”
“Well, umm…give me a minute to think.” Ember replied

“Ember wasn’t always the best with explanations, she took time to recollect the actions she took to start flying from her memory.” Narrated Nama

“Okay Sraco, first close your eyes and take a deep breath, then give your things a little flap.”
“Hey, Ember, I think these thing s are called wings.” Interrupted Sraco
“I think your right, but lets continue.”
“Okay.”

“Sraco then did as he was told, he closed his eyes, took a deep breath and gave his wings a little flap.” Narrated Nama

“Now flap harder and push off of the ground, and just think like you are part of the wind.” Ember instructed

“Sraco followed Ember’s instructions and his body then began to float upwards” Nama Told

“You’re doing it! Sraco, you are doing it!” Ember said with joy”

Sraco opened his eyes and gave a great grin, he looked at Ember all excited and thanked her.” Nama told her children

The children just stared, thinking of flying because flying was something no man had achieved in their time. It was only a dream to men, imaginative enough to achieve such a feet.

“Wow, this...this is amazing. Now there is only one thing to do.” Sraco said
Sraco then flew over to Ember, patted her on the snout with his claw yelling
“TAG! YOU’RE IT!” Sraco then flew off, as fast as he could with his new found ability.
“Oh you, conniving little…!” Ember then flew after him with an excited grin.

“The two little dragons now found a new way to play, but their adventure is not over.” Narrated Nama as she spoke to her drowsy, captivated children.

---8/22/09

“The two of them played games while flying for hours on end through out the day. They laughed and laughed and were creating memories that hopefully would stay with them their whole lives. Then the time came for the sun to set for the day, the sky became bright shades of oranges, yellows and pinks. The two of them then paused their games and decided to rest for the remainder of the day.” told Nama

“Ember, that was amazing, that feeling of being in the air, I could never of imagined something like that.” Sraco told.
“I know, we can make every day like today now.” Replied Ember
“Say, I’ve been wanting to ask…where did you figure out that our wings could do that?” questioned Sraco
“Umm…does it really matter how I figured it out? I mean we had fun doing it, should we question something so amazing?” replied Ember in a nervous tone.
“Well you have a point but still, you explained it to me really well like you got advice from somewhere.”
“Heh, really? Wow, I guess I’m just good at giving instructions.”
“But you never really where till now. Well I’m going for a walk if you don’t mind. I don’t want my legs getting lazy.” Said Sraco wit a smile
“Sure I don’t mind. I’ll just wait here looking at the sky and see how may stars I can count when they come out.” Replied Ember

“Sraco then began to walk in a random direction while looking out at the sun set. He walk for a few second till he was called by Ember.” Narrated Nama
“Sraco wait…umm” Ember then suddenly paused in thought
“Yeah what is it?”
“Umm…be back before I fall asleep, okay?” asked Ember
“Sure thing Ember, I won’t be long.” Replied Sraco, then he took off again.

“Then under her breath, she told herself…” told Nama

“No, I shouldn’t tell him yet. I don’t know how he’ll react.” Said Ember

“Don’t tell him what?” asked Bain
“Don’t worry, just listen and you’ll find out.” Replied Nama

“Sraco walked for a few minutes till Ember was out of sight, then he laid down and looked up.” said Nama

“Amazing how we can fly, I wonder what else we can do? Maybe we can turn invisible or something or talk to each other through thought.” Sraco thought to himself. “Looks like the night is almost here, I’ll take in the scenery for a little bit and then head back to Ember.”

“Ember couldn’t see Sraco, but she knew he wouldn’t leave her. Ember looked out into the valley, as if she was staring at something.” Narrated Nama

“I got to go back, but I don’t know if I should. No, I will go back, there may be more I can learn from the guy.” Ember said to herself “Hmm, looks like the stars are coming out, Sraco should be back soon, as soon he comes I need to fall asleep if I’m to see meet that guy again.”

“What guy?” questioned Phane.
“Don’t worry Phane, just listen to the story.” Replied Nama “Sraco came back, as soon as the moons appeared.”

“Ember, I’m back like I said, I’m tired. I’m going to rest. Beneni Ember” Said Sraco
“Me too, Beneni Sraco.” replied Ember.

“Then the two fell asleep, well Ember did anyway.” Narrated Nama.
“What’s Beneni Nama?” asked Phane
“Beneni is what the dragons told each other before they went to sleep.” replied Nama
“I like that word. It’s a pretty word.” Said Phane

“A few minutes later, Sraco opened his eyes, he saw that Ember had fallen asleep.”

“Ember…you wouldn’t keep a secret from me would you?” asked Sraco to her, but he expected no response. “I’m sure you’ll tell me how you figured out to fly because we’ve always shared everything, and you wouldn’t break that bond…would you?”

“Sraco then tried to fall asleep and find Ember in their dream. Sraco tried not to think such negative thoughts of her, though those thoughts could not be removed from his mind.” Narrated Nama

“heavens, they must be asleep now,” Nama said quietly
“Nope, finish the story, pleeeaaase!?” begged Bain.
“Okay, I tell some more.” Replied Nama with a smile.
“yah, I wanna know how she flew, maybe I can fly too!” said Bain
“but you don’t have wings numskull.” Replied Phane
“you just have to ruin all my fun, don’t you?” said Bain “Nama, tell some more please.”

Nama gave a giggle, and rubbed her children’s head’s and continued.

---8/28/09

“The night passed, the stars and moons have done their nightly tasks. Ember woke up early the next morning; twilight just broke at the time. The clouds smiled as they saw the sun rising. “ Told Nama

“Hmm, what a beautiful morning.” Ember thought to herself.

“Ember checked to see how far in to sleep Sraco still was.” Narrated Nama

“He still seems pretty sound. This is a good time to see that stranger.” Ember thought.

“Ember than took flight and headed off in her desired direction. She flew for few minutes until she saw her destination. It was a petite forest, nothing special. She stopped flying short of what seemed to be an entrance. She walked towards it wondering what was in store for her. As she got closer, a gale of wind pushed her further toward the entrance. Then the gale got so strong that she was pushed and tumbled into the entrance.” Told Nama

“That was weird, some strong winds today, I hope it doesn’t wake up Sraco. I should do this quick.” Ember told her self

“Ember entered the forest. She looked around at the trees, flowers and small animals that inhabited it. Then she heard whistling and humming. The two sounds created a comforting tune as it traveled through the small forest.” Narrated Nama

“ HEY GUY. I’m here, you wanted to show me something?” Ember asked out loud.
“Haha hehe, good morning, ahh, the beauty of the outside must be so nice. I’m glad you came back.” Said a voice.
“Hey, could you show yourself?”
“Okay!”

“All of a sudden leaves and petals whirled around her and then in front of her. The shape of a woman’s body appeared in front of her. Then a physical body faded in to fill the shape.” Told Nama

“I’m not a guy, I’m a female Nymph, my name is Arzoni.” She said.
“A what? What’s Nymph?” ember replied
“I am what I look like, I live in the trees and live care-freely. But back to main matters, what do YOU want?”
“Well you said that if I came back you’d teach me some other things like how you taught me to fly.”
“Oh yah! Stupid me. Well, what I’m going to teach you carry a lot of responsibility, think you can handle it?”
“Yeah, sure I can lady, just teach me quick.”
“Okay, do you know what living light is?”
“Living light? No, not a clue.”
”Well, it’s hot to touch and warm to feel, it needs air to live and can not be near water.”
“Sounds complicated, can we call it something else?”
“Okay, we’ll cal it…Fire! How’s that?”
“Hmmm, has a nice ring to it. So you’re going to teach me what to do with fire?”
“Well, I’m going to teach you how to breathe it.”
“NO WAY! That sounds really unnecessary!”
“Hmmm, I thought you say horrible. Don’t worry, you’ll be able to breathe it when ever you want, it won’t come out of your mouth every time you breathe out.”
“Oh, you scarred me there for a minute. Well, it sounds like fun, so how do I do it?”
“okay, first go out side of the wood’s entrance.” Arzoni Instructed.

“Ember than walked out of the woods into the morning’s sun light. She stood outside the woods and looked at Arzoni standing at the entrance with her hands cupped around her mouth to give instructions.” Narrated Nama

“What do I do now?” Ember yelled
“Alright, take a deep breath and hold it for a little bit.” Arzoni yelled back.

“So Ember did as instructed, she inhaled a gulp of air and held it for a few seconds.” Told Nama.

“Okay good, now point your head up toward the sky and just feel the sun’s heat on your body, then think that the heat is in you body and just let it out by breathing.” Instructed Arzoni.

“Then Ember did exactly that. She was overwhelmed with the sun’s heat and then she just exhaled a great breath. Fire came forth from her mouth and in the air. Ember was speechless at the sight of it. She looked at Arzoni and ran toward her with great joy.” Told Nama.

“Arzoni, Arzoni! That was incredible! Thank you so much!”

“Arzoni petted ember and told to that she was glad to do it.” Narrated Nama

“Now Ember, I have a favor of to ask you.” Arzoni asked
“Yeah, what?”
“Do you have any friends?”
“One, his name is Sraco.”
“Really, is just like you?”
Yeah, he can fly too! I taught him like you taught me.”
“Excellent, that’ll make the trip shorter.”
“Shorter? Shorter for what?”
“Ember, do you think you can bring your friend here?”
“Why, what do you need with him?”
“I want to meet him, I’ll teach him how to breathe fire too.”
“But I can teach him.”
“NO! I mean, no. Do not, I want to teach him personally.”
“Umm, okay I guess.” When do you want me to bring him?”
“How about when the sun is almost ready to set?”
“Okay, sure. I’ll see you then.” Then Ember took flight and went off to Sraco.

“Farewell Ember, see you soon!” Arzoni yelled “Finally. She’s gone. I hate wearing this get up, but it’ll be worth it once I get out of theses woods.”

“Arzoni then took of a tiara and walked deep into the woods to a giant stone base with a face carved into it.” Told Nama.

“Finally, I’ll be out of here once that stupid dragon gets rid of this forest for me. I hate you for keeping me here, but at least I’ll get something great in return for my works for you right Nemorae?” said Arzoni
“Indeed Arzoni as soon as I get out as well, you shall be blessed by my hand.” The stone responded.
“Good, because if you turn on your word, I’ll break this stone and neither one of will ever leave, GOT IT?!”
“With a threat like that, I would never imagine the thought.”

“Arzoni laughed and then just hopped back up onto a tree, waiting for Ember and Sraco to return.” Nama told her children.

Both children were still listening but they felt the curtain of drowsiness fall on them as they yawned, waiting to hear the rest of the story.

---09/02/09

“As Ember returned, Sraco had already been up and waiting for her.” Narrated Nama

“Hey, where you go?”
“I woke up early to…see the sunrise! Sorry I wasn’t here.”
“hey what’s that smell. It’s.. coming from around you’re snout.”
“IT’S NOTHING SRACO, DON; T WORRY ABOUT RIGHT NOW! Gasp, Sraco…Sorry I yelled that way. I guess I’m just cranky.”
“It’s okay, what do you want to do today?”
“I don’t know, what could we play?”
“Well that’s just it, I don’t feel like playing.”
“What? We play everyday Sraco, why don’t you wanna play now?”
“I don’t know, I- I guess I’m not in the mood today.”
“This is a first, you’re usually the one to start games.”
“I know, how bout’ we just lay here for a while and look at the clouds?”
“Sure, I guess we could do that.” Ember said feeling kind of disappointed.
“Hey, look at this one, it looks like a pair of wings.”
“this one looks like a flower!.”
“Oh this one looks an eye!”
“ And this one looks like a huge tree! Huh? Look! It’s going to block out the sun!” Ember pointed out.

Then Sraco jumped up and got excited, he crouched as if he was stalking something.

“Saco, what you up to?”
“Wait for it, just wait for it.”
“What are you doing?”
“Wait, wait, wait, Okay Go, Go, Go!!!”
He than immediately took flight and flew upwards toward the sky as the giant cloud was about to eclipse the sun. Ember took Flight immediately after him.

“Sraco wait, where are you going? WAIT!” Ember yelled out.

Sraco flew up so fast that Ember could only drag behind him. He smiled with excitement and euphoria. In a minute or two, they had already broken through the cloud and reached the surface. They soared far off the ground and toward the sun. Then all of a sudden he stopped flying and just let his body fall. He saw ember just stare at him and then he made a gesture to follow him. Then she repeated the same act and stopped. They free fell looking at the sun. She than dive-bombed to get closer to him, she grabbed his body and yelled.

“Wahoo! Hey wanna see something stunning?”

Ember than breathed fire as she dive-bombed with Sraco, creating a spiral of fire around the two. He was just stunned as he just saw what his friend could do.

“I think I love you!” He said jokingly.
“Whoa! What?”
Ember was so shocked at the comment that she stopped the fire and let go. Sraco, still in a diving position, passed Ember. He looked up at her wondering what happened, his attention was diverted from his distance between the sky and the ground. Once Sraco realized how dangerous he was to the ground, he had already come within crashing distance. He couldn’t save himself, him body crashed and tumbled, his body rolled like a rag doll.

“SRACO, OH SCALE, SRACO!” Ember cried out.

“She managed to land safely, and she ran toward him. She sobbed over him, think he was dead, neither of them had ever been severely injured, so the new feeling of remorse that fell on Ember was like taking a boulder on you’re back.

“Oh no, SRACO! Why Did I Let go? Why did you say what did? You Idiot!”
“Em, I’m still hear, but I can’t move, I was kidding when I said that.”
“it wasn’t very funny, what can I do?”
“I don’t know, I guess I’ll lay hear until something happens.”
“no, I think I know someone who could help.”

Sraco was stunned that ember had known someone beside him and she hadn’t told. But he was too hurt to do anything. He then just passed out. Ember put her head next to his belly to see if he was still breathing. She put him on her back and balanced him with her wings as she headed towards Arzoni’s forest.

---9/22/09

“Hold on, stay in there okay?” She said.

Sraco was too heavy to run with and she did not want to rattle him after what happened so she had to walk all the way there. By flying, Ember could make the trip in a relatively minor amount of time, but now that she has to walk while carrying weight on her back, the trip will take time and patience, it may be a few hours before she reaches her destination.

Step by step, minuet-by-minuet, hour-by-hour. The time is being consumed by the day. Neither of the two dragons knows how long Sraco can endure his injuries, Ember just hopes that Arzoni can help him if they arrive at the right time. Ember wishes she could fly with he on board, but she knows that’s not an option. Her legs begin to weaken; she has exercised almost her whole life because of her playing, but carrying a body on her back, her muscle can’t take much of the pressure.

“Aww great. I lost a good chuck of the day. Don’t worry I think we’re al most there. Well I hope we get there soon, the sun looks like it’s almost time to set. Well, we were supposes to get there around this time anyway.” Ember said to herself.

Ember was getting tiresome, and impatient. The clouds were beginning to get their night coming colors. Ember was mad that she had not arrived yet; she then laid down to take a quick rest. A minuet into her rest she heard a shrill voice.

“EMBER, EMBER, GET OVER HERE!”

She looked up and saw Arzoni standing out at he wood’s entrance.

“How did I not see that earlier?” Ember said

Ember then got back up and walked toward the woods, glad to finally of made it. She entered the woods and laid Sraco down on the ground. Then Ember just fell over to take a breather.

“What happened here?” Arzoni asked
“Long story, this is my friend Sraco, you can see that he’s hurt.” Ember replied
“Yeah and what do you want?”
“Can you help him, I didn’t where else to go.”
‘” Ah…I guess I could, give me a minuet with him.”

Arzoni than picked up Sraco and headed toward the deep part of the woods, toward Nemorae.

“Where you going, let me come.” Ember asked.
“No, I need to be alone to do this.” Arzoni said as she halted Ember with her foot. “Just give a little bit of time, I’ll bring him back healthy.”

Arzoni continued into the woods, Ember just stared at her until the wood’s shadows consumed her. Sraco woke for a second, seeing he’s being carried and not by Ember.

“Who…are…?” Sraco then passes out.

“Hey Nemorae, I got something for yah.” Arzoni then just drops Sraco in front of the stone.

“A dragon, and not the one from before like you’ve told. What do you need?”
“He’s our way out of here, fix him. “
“In this state, I cannot perform and magic or acts, let me show you what to do. Put your hands over his belly and repeat this over and over until he’s healed. Say Repeto.”

Arzoni did as told and a green light surround Sraco until he was healthy. He sprung up and right away and stared at her with a protective look. Then walks back up into Nemorae and gets away from the stone.

“Where am I? Who are you?” Sraco demanded an answer.
“ Don’t worry about it you little green ant. Come with me, now.” Arzoni commanded.
“No. Not until I know where Ember is!”
“Where do you think we’re going stupid?”
“Fine, show me where she is.”

Then a Nemorae’s voice entered Arzoni’s mind.

“Arzoni, remember to teach the dragon the living light, and to use the incantation I showed you.” Nemorae’s voice advised.

The two walked back through the woods until the reached Ember. The two were glad to see each other in good health.

“Sraco! You’re better, but how?” Ember asked.
“I don’t know, but she must have done it.” Referring to Arzoni.
“That all nice and all but now in return for healing you, let me teach you something Sraco.” Arzoni said.
“What? The fire thing?” Ember interrupted.
“Fire? What’s that?” Sraco asked.
“that thing I breathed out of my mouth in the sky, from earlier.”
“Oh yeah, I wanna know that!”
“Well quiet down and I’ll teach you.” Arzoni yelled.
“ Arzoni, are you bothered by something?” Ember asked.

Arzoni was too anxious to get Sraco to breath fire, he was her way out of the forest she couldn’t escape.

“Anyway, Sraco go out side so you can do this.” Ember instructed.
“No, I want him to stay in here for this, the sun is too low to get it’s full affects, but don’t worry. There are alternatives. Fire can do other things like umm…the fire you breath can make dark thing light up.” Arzoni said.
“Weird, but I’m not the teacher I guess.” Ember replied
“Alright, so how do I do this breathing thing?” Sraco asked
“Just repeat this word over and over again until you get it. Repeat saying incendi.”

Sraco did just that; he repeated the word incendi over and over again. Every time her said it, he said it with more energy, getting louder and louder. His green scales were getting a reddish tint, his irises and pupils were fading and smoke came out from under his scales.

“Sraco you’re sorta scaring me, Arzoni, make him stop.”

But Arzoni just laughed, twirling around in circles saying “goodbye” in repetition.
Liquid ash came out from his eye sockets, and small ember came from his mouth. Ember went stop him, but when she touched him with her paw, the bottom of it got burned. Then fire, out of nowhere, appeared and hovered over his body. Ember ran out of the forest just to spectate what was happening, she knew some bad was going to happen, and she didn’t wanna be close. Then, it was quiet, Arzoni shut up and not even the insects were making noise. All of a sudden the fire, ash, and embers just exploded in a devilish array of lights, incinerating the whole woods with in a matter seconds.

The children just stared and looked at each other with smile on their faces.
“Whoa! That’s amazing.” Bane said.
“Kinda Scawy though.” Phane replied.
“Now what!” the two children said in unison.
“Hold on sweetie, it’s almost finished. You just need to hear this last part.” Nama replied

“Sraco, Not again! You here me?!” Ember yelled as she ran toward Sraco and Arzoni in the black ashes.

Sraco was fine, he returned to normal after the explosion. But Arzoni was burned, she stood half naked in her cinged clothing while she gave faint laughs under her breath.

“That’s it, heh heh heh, that’s it, you great, stupid dragon, that’s it! I’m released, I’m free!” Arzoni yelled.

Arzoni limbed quickly over to Nemorae’s stone, the two dragons just watched her.
Nemorae’s stone was shaking and eroding away; beams of glittering light came out of the cracks in it.

“Nemorae’s, get out of there and bless me now, heal me, make me rich, make others adore me.” Arzoni demanded.
“Very well. A promise is a promise.” Then Nemorae came out. His true figure revealed. He was nothing more that a white ghostly figure with bright yellow eyes. He grabbed Arzoni by both of her shoulders and held her up.
“Fame, fortune, good health, blessing be upon you!” Nemorae’s words frightened her as she looked into his eyes. Then his ghostly figure just dropped her on her back and he just stepped inside her. Her eyes were stricken black then into Nemorae’s bright yellow eye color. She got up, her burned clothes withered away, making her completely naked. A ruby red gown then just overlapped her body.
“Wish granted Arzoni, you are my vessel, your face shall become famous as I reform this land to my fain.” Nemorae voice said through Arzoni’s mouth. “Those morons who put in that stone far back in time, thought I’d be in there forever, ignorance. Nothing last forever.”

Nemoraea walked toward the dragons, they back upped, as he got closer.

“Congratulations, you are first to witness the end of the land you know. Would you like a snack or perhaps something else? You are the one who got me out.”
“No. After what you did to her, you can’t change our home, I won’t let you.” Ember replied.
“That’s funny, what are you going to do, I can do anything, I can manipulate reality!”
“Doesn’t hurt to try.” Sraco said.
“Good point tell you what, I’ll play fair, we’ll have a little fair game that’ll determine what happens. We’ll ask each other three riddles, who ever get the most correct wins, sounds good?”
“Sraco…”
“Don’t worry Em, let’s do it.”
“Okay here’s the first riddle, what can you catch but not throw?”
“THE AIR!” Ember said frantically.”
“Nope, it was pain, alright your turn. “
“What can be misplaced, but never lost?”
“The stars, obviously. If you give it food, it will live, but if you give it water it will die.”
“Fire.” Ember shouted.
“Em you don’t know if…”Sraco was saying until interrupted.
“That’s…right.”
“It runs but doesn’t walk and follows close behind where ever I am.” Ember then replied.
“You’re snout, too easy. What do you call something with its ears covered.”
“Anything because they can’t hear you. What is it that you can keep after giving it to someone else?” Sraco gave his final riddle.
“You can’t be serious…you stupid dragons!!!” Nemorae yelled. He was befuddled. He paced back and forth trying to figure out the answer, and then he gave a response. “I admit, I do not know”
“I’m surprised, the answer is your word. Looks like we’re in control now.”
“ I am a spirit of my word, what do you want?”
“Go back into your stone.” Ember Yelled.
“Out of the question, I am not living in there for another 300 years, want something else?”
“That is what I want.”
“Then the deals off! It was fun but I got chore list do.”
“Oh no you don’t!” Ember then just breathed her fire at Nemorae, but it did nothing. He just continued to walk off.
“What did I tell you? You can’t do anything.” Nemorae said with a dark chortle. Ember then just jumped on top of him and began to struggle, she bit and scratched and burned him with fire. Nemorae just struggled to get her off him.
“Enough!” He picked Ember by the neck and just tossed her aside. She just got back up and grabbed his gown. She ripped Nemorae’s backside open to reveal another image Arzoni’s face in the skin.
“Arzoni?!”Ember said startled
“Repeto, Repeto, Repeto!!!” the image just yelled.
“Hush!” Nemorae then materialized a dagger and cut out he skin image. His skin instantly healed.
“Repeto?” As Ember said that, Nemorae seemed to be pulled back to the ashes a little. Sraco runs up to Ember to help her.

“Where were you before? Anyway, did you notice that?”
“Notice what?”
“This, repeto!” and as soon Ember she said that word, Nemorae was pulled back to the ashes again.
“Quiet you! Dare not say that again!” Nemoare threatened.
“What’s stopping me?” Ember replied.
“This!” and within the same second as that was spoke, Ember was turned into a wooden figure. “HA! Does that answer your question?”
“*gasp* Em, Em EMBER! Say something!” But Sraco’s cries received no response. “You!” Sraco then jumped onto Nemorae, trying to do whatever he could to get her to change back.
“You annoyance! Get off me!”
“No, you change her back and get back into your stone!”
“As if you ant!” And then Nemorae grabbed Sraco and tossed him aside. Sraco then got back immediately and was filled with rage. All of a sudden he unleashed a great inferno from his mouth. Nemorae just absorbed the attack and nothing happened.
“What in the world?” Both thought to their selves. Sraco then just unleashed fury on Nemorae, on breath after another, but Nemorae just absorbed on after another without any effort.
“This is getting nowhere. I need to think of something else. Wait, those words! I think he just lost this.” Sraco thought to himself. He then ran away in the opposite of Nemorae.
“About time you wised up.” Nemorae taunted, but then Sraco just charged at Nemorae. He thought that this was a foolish act and he did nothing to brace himself. What Nemorae didn’t notice though was that while Sraco was charging, he was reciting the word incendi. Sraco Charged up energy while runnig, getting stronger with each step. Nemorae noticed the peculiar image coming toward him, he realized his plan but as soon as he did, Sraco was right in his face. He jumped and glided at a fast speed toward Nemorae. And as soon was within fingure length of distance, Sraco unleashed his stored energy. Nemorae was blown away in the fire; he tumbled and rolled, being seriously stunned for the moment. Sraco then gave his final attack.
“REPETO, REPETO, REPETO!” Sraco yelled with great passion.
Nemorae was being dragged toward the ash, as if a chariot was dragging him.
“Shut up you wretch!”
“REPETO, REPETO, REPETO!” over and over again the dragon roared.
Nemorae was dragged so quickly towards the stone until his back hit it. The spirit was coming out of Arzoni’s body. The spirt was moaning with an infuriated tone.
“Oh...IT IS NOT OVER YET!” Nemorae yelled. “I PLACE A CURSE ON YOU TWO, YOU’RE APPEARANCES SHALL BE FOREVER CHANGED, YOUR GIFTS OF BEFORE SHALL BE LOST!” Then he grabbed the two dragons and the appearance of them was being pulled off. They closed their eyes and held on to each other, it felt like a heavy wind was being blown unto them. When they opened their eyes their saw each other bare skinned and stunned at their new looks. They walked up right with hands and feet; Nemorae turned them into human children.Arzoni got back to consciousness and saw what was happening.
“YOU TRATOR!” Arzoni cried at Nemorae.
“I SHALL NOT GO ALONE!” Nemorae then grabbed Arzoni by the ankle and was dragging her in. She screamed in agony and fear as her body was being pulled into the rock.
“NO, PLEASE HELP ME!”
The two of them ran toward her and tried to pull her out. But as they did, they kept repeating the word so they could seal Nemorae back in.
“REPETO, REPETO, REPETO! DON’T WORRY ARZONI!” Ember cried.
A green light then covered the rock like it had Sraco before and the cracks in the rock were sealing back up, the eroded dust from it came back into form. AS Nemorae saw the cracks returning, he gave one final tug and pulled Arzoni completely in. she slipped through the children’s hands and she wailed and yelled a dark, icy scream of despair as the rock seal back up. Once the rock came back to it’s normal state, the ashes formed back into the woods and the children were surrounded. They turned around and headed out.
It was nighttime, probably the most eventful night of their life. They walked out of the forest and looked at the sky. The glimmering moons were gone; they noticed that there was now just one moon. Those this was odd to them they had no comment. They looked at each other and at their new bodies.
“Sraco, what do we do now?”
“I don’t know Em. Maybe we should move on, find others like Arzoni and us. There must be more of her kind.”
“Maybe you’re right, let’s go.”
“
The two children hugged and they held each other’s hands as they wished for the best and walked into the unknown. The End.” Narrated Nama.

“Please tell me you’re asleep.” Nama thought to herself. She looked over at her children, they were mumbling but finally falling asleep. Nama blew out the lanterns and crept out of the room discreetly and closed the door. She walked down the hall into her bedroom. Her husband was their just twiddling his thumbs in the light of the lantern beside him.
“You told them that tale?” her husband asked.
“Yeah, don’t worry, I didn’t let anything lose get out.” Nama replies
“I wouldn’t care really, but that’s just me.”
“ Yeah me too, I guess it wouldn’t be so bad if we told them, but not now, maybe when they’re a little more mature.” Nama said. They both got under their covers on the bed and looked at each other.
“Beneni Ember.”
“Beneni Sraco.”
And the couple laid down and drifted into sleep.

my bad this is why i posted it

im a big fan of the spyro series, listen to some of the game music from"the legend of spyro" while writing this

i have equal love for both, but that series "the legend of Spyro( triliogy)" was just beautiful in so many ways, the music, the graphics, th estory, the characters, it would of made a great film, oh wait, that's right, they are making a film on spyro coming out this december

you can find fan made trailers, but nothing official has been released, it's probably a B-movie, and you might know what to expect if you play the legend of spyro series, but it is coming out in december of 09'

well game footage is all they have to work off of, at least they are trying to promote the movie, i heard it's by the same director behind the eragon movie

and guillermo del toro ( director of hellboy movies) is rummored to be the director of a Legend Of Zelda Movie

i just wanna see spyro on the big creen, they've done video game movies but no video game icons like spyro, crash, or link

he did in the three spyro games, and david spade played sparx in the frist one
