Chapter Five ~ Dragons
I walk further into the woods. The small animals around me scurried about. Through the trees, I could just barely see a strange, large object. The object suddenly moved a littler bit. By looking a bit closer, I could tell it had scales covering its whole body. It's body was purple with hints of blue, green, and pink everywhere. It actually reminded me a lot of a galaxy. The closer I got, the more of the strange creature I could see. I could see a tail coming from one end of the creatures body. I could also see two of its four feet. It has claws almost as big as me. I quickly notice something else about it. It has wings! Suddenly, the creature lifts its head and looks at me. I freeze in shock at what lays before me.
"Cool! You're a dragon!" I yell excitedly and loudly.
"No need to raise your voice child." The dragon says.
"I'm not a child!" I yell at her, pouting.
"Well what is you age then?" She asks me, standing up and turning her body towards me.
"I'm 18." I tell her.
"I certainly didn't expect that. You look 13." She tells me while sitting down.
"Rude." I say.
"Well let me cut to the chase. I'm looking for a human to train to become a Celestial Dragon Slayer. Would you be willing to be that person? We will do all the training in the Dragon Realm." The dragon says.
"First, I want your name. Then I might consider it." I tell her.
"Right, right. My name is Galaxia." She tells me. "And your name is??"
"Madison." I reply simply.
"Do you need more time to think or have you already found your answer?" Galaxia asks me.
"I knew my answer from the start. I told myself I was coming out here to train and get better at magic." I tell her.
"Alright then. Follow me." Galaxia says, standing up and turning around. She starts to walk into a cave I only just now noticed. We walk into it and Galaxia starts to chant words. "Gate to the realm of the dragons! Hear my call and let me pass!"
A small purple dot appears in the air. It slowly starts to expand to the size of Galaxia. In the middle, it shows floating islands of all kinds. There was one on fire, one made of iron, one with strong winds, one very bright next to one very dark, another looked to have all the constellations surrounding it. There were many more besides just these few. Galaxia walks through the portal and I follow. My vision turns white for a second before clearing up again. I look around and we're on a floating island with a castle on it. A tall woman suddenly walks out of the large double doors of the castle. She has on a long, flowy white dress and a black shaw over her shoulders. Her wavy, black hair reaches all the way down to her knees. She has shadowy blue eyes and a pale skin tone. There is a crown resting upon her head. Galaxia bows when the woman walks over to us. I follow her actions and quickly bow. She must be the queen.
"I see you have returned Galaxia, and I also see you have a new student." The queen says. We stand up straight.
"Yes Queen Octavia." Galaxia says. Octavia. That's a beautiful name.
"Welcome home. You should start your training with her immediately." Queen Octavia says.
"Yes ma'am." Galaxia nods and turns around. "Hop on my back Madison. We'll have to fly to get to my island."
I quickly hop up on Galaxia's back. She spreads her wings and starts to beat them against the air. The wind blows my hair out of my face as Galaxia flys away from the island quickly. One the way there, we pass all the islands I had seen in the middle of the portal before. I can fell the intense heat emitting from the one on fire as we pass it.
We soon reach the island with constellations surrounding it. Galaxia lands on it and lets me off her back. I look at the area around us and notice a small cave in a mountain no to far away. That must be where we're gonna sleep.
"We'll begin training first thing tomorrow morning. For now, you should rest." Galaxia says as she is surrounded in a yellow light. When the light fads, in the place of the large dragon, is a young women. She has long, straight hair that fades from blue to purple. She is wearing a knee length dress. The dress is like a moving image of multiple galaxies. She has no shoes on.
"Woah." I gasp, not being able to say any other words.
Galaxia giggles a little bit. "Every dragon has a human form. This one is mine."
"You're beautiful." I tell her.
"Thank you. Now go rest." Galaxia tells me. I do as she says and I walk over to the cave. The inside looks like a nice, cozy home. I walk over to a bed that looks like it isn't used. I lay down on it a slowly drift off to sleep.
