Fan Fiction ❯ Dragon Keeper ❯ Chapter 6: The Legend's Story Told part 1 ( Chapter 6 )
Ok, yet another chapter has ended and another chapter begins... but don't you want to hear about MY day? *people begin walking off* CURSE YOU!!!
Anyways, back in Aronada, the friends have more trouble on their hands than school ever gave them! Rashujo and his armies trying to kill them, people wanting to rob them, and people who follow them everywhere wanting to wipe their butts for them! Personally, I wouldn't want people caressing my butt...
Well, here's the story anyways... Have fun... wiping...
(Jessica takes a big whiff of the air around her)
Jessica: Ahh, the air here smells so nice compared to the air at home. I guess it's because there is no pollution here.
Hano: What's… pollution?
Jessica: Wha-? You don't know what it is? Maybe you should've spent time on Earth when you were a kid, it would probably have helped with your understanding of it.
Hano: Hmm… perhaps.
Elora: Well my back yard doesn't smell like a cup of roses either.
Karen: I'd have to agree with you on that one, how do live like that?
Shawn: Please, just the mention of it makes me sneeze. It was hell in both your house and your back yard.
Elora: It's not my fault if you're allergic to them.
Johnathan: What are you guys talking about?
Shawn: Elora's cats.
Renee: How high is the count now?
Elora: I gave up counting months ago, they keep inbreeding. One of `em has its leg stuck to its head.
Renee: Ahh, the beauty of nature.
Johnathan: Renee, you've got some WEIRD imagination.
Renee: Really?
Everyone: YES!
(A peasant woman with an apple cart walks up to Shawn holding out one of her apples)
Woman: Have an apple, sir.
Shawn: Hmm? Oh, thank you.
(He reaches into his pocket to pull out some money, which strangely enough, turns out that Aronadan and American currency are the same, when the woman stops him)
Woman: No pay needed- I-
Shawn: No, here.
(Shawn hands her a dollar)
Woman: Er- Thank you, thank you very much.
(He adds on as the woman reaches into her coat to get his change)
Shawn: You can keep the change, I don't need it.
Woman: Are you sure?
Shawn: Yes, really.
(The woman walks away, with a tearful smile on her face muttering happily to herself quietly something Shawn and the others can't hear)
Karen: Aww, you're so sweet, Shawn.
Shawn: ...
Karen: I wanna be just like you!
Shawn: ...
Karen: You're the nicest gu-
(Karen is cut off as Shawn drives his elbow into the top of her head with an obviously perturbed face)
Johnathan: Woah, calm down.
(Johnathan grabs onto Shawn's arm as to stop him from crushing Karen's skull in two, wanting to keep her alive so he can kill her later, but when he lifts *with just one arm* he pulls Shawn completely into the air)
Shawn: What the-
Johnathan: Ack!
(Johnathan lets go abruptly, causing Shawn to fall back to the ground)
Elora: Woah, that's amazing!
Jessica: Cool!
Renee: Wait, I wasn't looking, do it again.
Karen: @__________@ Unconscious
Johnathan: How the heck did I-
Hano: Strength, eh?... Impressive.
Johnathan: What do you mean `Impressive'?! I just lifted `im into the air with barely trying!
Hano: This kind of thing is normal here on Aronada.
Johnathan: You have no TVs or DVD players, and you call this normal?
Hano: People who are from Aronada or an Aronadan bloodline commonly receive special powers or abilities. One of yours, apparently, is strength.
Elora: One of?
Hano: Well, yes. Usually people develop more than one. Usually it's two, but it can be more.
Shawn: Ok, Hercules, no doing stuff like that anymore, ok?
Renee: But, if we have these powers, why didn't they show up back on Earth?
Elora: Yeah... and who say's me, Johnathan, Renee, and Jessica are from Aronada? I thought it was only Karen and Shawn who're from here.
Hano: I suppose it took the Aronadan surroundings to activate them more efficiently, also, I'm guessing that the four of you got your heritage from ancestors who came to Earth long ago, before records were made of the trips.
Jessica: You make records... of the trips?
Hano: Yes, for about 5,000 years now.
Elora: ...
Karen: ...
Shawn: ...
Johnathan: ...
Renee: zzzzzzzz
Jessica: You know WAAAAY too much about your history.
Hano: Hmm? How's that?
Shawn: I think it's in the fact that you know every single moment from the past, and yet you can't even keep up with what's going on in the present.
Karen: Don't be so mean! Hano's been really nice to us.
Shawn: What, do you like him?
Karen: YOU DORK!!! (slaps Shawn upside the head)
Johnathan: Wait a second, when did you come out of your unconsciousness?
Karen: That is a secret of which I shall not reveal. (shifty eyes)
Renee: Ooo! Does Karen have the ability to wake up from unconscious states within seconds?
Elora: No, Renee... other people can do that too...
Renee: Oh...
Elora: *slaps Renee* INFIDEL!!!
Renee: Yay! You got rid of the pain I had in my ass from where my spinal cord was poking into it, but the sudden jolt caused it to stop hurting.
Jessica: Ew, Renee... just... ew.
Elora: (swats Renee across the area)
Renee: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa (her screams getting quieter and quieter until complete silence)
Elora: 3 points! Whoo!
Shawn: Erm... what were we talking about again?
Johnathan: Dammed if I know.
Renee: Then I damn you!
Jessica: Renee, that was a figure of speech...
Renee: What is it with you people and confusing me with words?
Karen: Renee...
Renee: Yes?
Karen: Don't talk anymore...
Renee: *nods*
Jessica turns to face Hano once again.
Jessica: So, why exactly does this Rashujo guy have such a grudge against Karen and Shawn's past lives?
Hano: You see, back when they were alive-
Elora: Wait, is this going to be a long flashback?
Hano: Erm, yes but-
Elora: Oh! Hold on then!
Elora runs off and then comes back after about 8 minutes with a very large bowl of popcorn and a piece of toilet paper trailing off of her foot.
Elora: Ok, I'm ready!
Johnathan: You are going to share that... right?
Elora: Hell no! Get your own!
Johnathan: *slips her a 10*
Elora: Why sure best buddy! You can have all the popcorn you like!
Hano: Erm... ok...
The scene of the group sitting around fades out as Hano begins to tell the story of Shonoru and Kimitsuna... aw dang it! His voice fades out too! Now you're gonna read the story from THEIR points of view! MWAHAHAHA!
Woman: Kimitsuna? Kimitsuna will you come here please?
A girl about 16 walks in wearing a brown shirt that goes down to the middle of her thighs that has a navy blue sash around it. Her hair is brown and reaches down past the middle of her back; her eyes have two different shades of green in them.
Kimitsuna: Yes, Mother?
Ki's Mother: Kimitsuna, as you know, the Hibiku's have ruled along side the Omigawa's for centuries. There is a problem though...
Kimitsuna: What is that?
Ki's Mother: A dark force from the North, is beginning to take power throughout the world.
Kimitsuna: *gasp* That's horrible! I'll take care of it at once!
Kimitsuna stands up and begins running toward the door.
Ki's Mother: Stop!
Kimitsuna stops when she hears her mother's warning.
Kimitsuna: What- what is it?
Ki's Mother: You remember how I mentioned the Hibiku's?
Kimitsuna: Y-yes, I remember.
Ki's Mother: Well, their son, Shonoru, is coming with you to fight.
Kimitsuna: WHAT?!?! THAT JERK?!?!
Ki's Mother: Yes, and I advise that you refrain from calling him names, because without him, you'd surely be destroyed.
Kimitsuna: But-but...
Ki's Mother: That is enough, you and Shonoru are only warriors in the entire world of Aronada who would be suited to fight this dark force! You can only win if you work together! Now please, hurry before the entire world is destroyed!
Kimitsuna grudgingly leaves the room and begins to descend the stairs down to the main hall where the door to the outside of the castle is located, as she exits the massive stone building, she sees Shonoru waiting by the horses where he is holding the reins of his own.
Shonoru: It took you long enough to get here, now get your dragon and get on your horse.
Kimitsuna: Oh, will you shut-up! You're so inconsiderate of others!
Shonoru: At least I make it on time, unlike some-
He is cut off as he is pelted by a rather large Grukon[1]
Shonoru: WHAT WAS THAT FOR?!?!?!
Kimitsuna doesn't answer, and instead picks up her dragon, Koroko, and climbs on her horse, her element stones shimmering in the light of the sun.
Kimitsuna: It appears that you take longer to do things than I do.
Shonoru glares at her, then silently climbs on his horse, he clicks his tongue twice, this is a command for the horse to go, Kimitsuna does the same, and they set off.
After about a mile of following Shonoru, Kimitsuna speaks up.
Kimitsuna: What exactly are we supposed to be looking for?
Shonoru: My father told me of a person possessing one of the dark items of the Shakron[2] has destroyed the city of Orkeyda and has moved on to Chikorey.
Kimitsuna: Ok, so what's this guy's name?
Shonoru: What?! You mean you don't know?!
Kimitsuna: ...yeah...
Shonoru: Crap... now it will be even harder for us to track him down…
Kimitsuna: What are you talking about?
Shonoru: I was hoping that your parents knew about the identity of him!
Kimitsuna: Ah... well that does set down the chances, doesn't it...
Shonoru: Do I sense sarcasm?
Kimitsuna: Congratulations! You win...
She lines her horse right next to his
Kimitsuna: ... a push off of your horse!
She pushes him resulting in him falling off of his horse and landing on the ground with a loud thud.
Kimitsuna: hehehe...
Shonoru: Grrr...
The next thing she knows, Kimitsuna is pelted in the head by a rock thrown by Shonoru, she also falls off of her horse as the result. Though a problem, Shonoru soon finds out, is that it temporarily knocked her out, translation: Kimitsuna go sleepy-bye!
Shonoru: Finally, maybe now I'll get some peace and quiet.
He picks her up, climbs up on his horse while still holding her, and sits her in front of him, holding her so she won't fall off. (Kind of like Pippin was positioned in LotR 3 when Gandalf was taking him to the other castle). Takes the reins of her horse, ties them to a part of his horse's saddle, and continues on the way to the city of Chikorey.
Ok! That's the end of Chapter 6!
Now for the meanings of things…
[1]: A Grukon is a generally small creature that dwells only in Aronada, it looks similar to a frog, but it has a long scaley tail and its feet have talons.
[2]: Shakron is basically a cult which uses dark magic to try to conquer the world of Aronada. In other words, don't even think about trying to cross them unless you are a VERY good actor.
Ok, that's it for chapter 6, you noticed that I cut off kind of soon into the Shonoru and Kimitsuna part of the story, that's because the next part absolutely HAS to be in chapter 7! It's extremely important to it.
But don't worry, it's going to pick up exactly where it left off in chapter 6, I'll try to post pictures on my website that I've made of the Dragon Keeper characters and such when I get the chance. When and/or if this happens, I will let you know and give you the link to the particular section! Cya!
