《The Creature from the stars》


 How I was abducted

    I was walking home from shool late tonight. Today could have gone better.


    I was late to school today and got detention. Then I messed up in my science class and my teacher told me that I have to make up for it with a presentation about DNA. I couldn''t do it while I was in detention. After detention, i headed to the school library, but it was closed.


    I went to the town library and checked out every book about DNA I could find. I studied for three hours. Once I was done, I went home only for me to be stopped by the librarian.


    Apparentally, my library card was expired and I had to pay for the books. Now I''m broke.


    When I went outside, it was night. My parents are gonna kill me. I ran to the nearest bus stop just in time for me to miss my bus.


    I ended up walking home.


    As I was walking home, I felt like I was being watched. It was not a god feeling.


    I started walking faster. Things were fine until I was about to turn onto my street.


    As I was about to turn, I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my side.


    I looked down o see a large grey sharp claw burried deep in my side. When I tried to scream, I felt a hand cover my mouth.


    Whatever had me dragged me into the woods easily. I thought I was being kidnapped. But then whatever had me let me go.


    My side was bleeding out. I could see my intestines starting to fall out.


    I looked around and saw a fast moving thing running around in circles around me like a vulture. My eyes were starting to get dizzy.


    I fell to my knees from exhaustion. Then in front of me, the creature slowly came out of the bushes and I saw it.


    It had dark grey scaly skin with neon red lines around the joints and on its chest. It had two long large arms with three fingered sharp claws. it had a long tail with red neon stripes down its back. its legs were like a dinosaur, bent back around the knees and then bent back to the front around the feet. it had two large neon red spikes right behind its soldiers. its eyes were neon red. it had four eyes. its head was like a human and a lizard combined. it had two rows of long sharp fangs.This novel is published on a different platform. Support the original author by finding the official source.


    I watched as it approached me. I knew I was going to die either way. I fell to the ground and closed my eyes, waiting for it to finishe me off.


    I felt it bite into my stomach and bite of my upper stomach. I then heard a weird noise followed by the creature roaring in pain.


    I opened my eyes and saw the creature on its back. I looked around and saw weird people in white suits. They had these weird looking guns aimed at the thing. But the weirdest thing was that they had six arms.


    One came up to me and looked at my wounds. It sai something in a weird language to a few other people.


    What happened next came in photo like things. Everytime I opened my eyes, Something was different.


    First, I saw the people putting the creature into some weird futuristic looking pod of some kind. Then I saw the people putting me onto a floating metal gurny. I then Saw us entering a large door of light in the middle of no where. I then saw a metalic wall in every direction.


    I felt my life slowly fade. I drifted off into an endless sleep.


    I woke up i in the same place I was in. But I felt nothing. No pain, no tempature, nothing. I looked at my self and saw that I was nothing but a neon blue light. I looked at my body, all opened up and bit into.


    Around me was weird experiment looking stuff from those alien movies I watched. I felt something telling me to go to something. I did.


    As i went through the wall, I looked and saw a bunch of those people from earlier. I saw two talking. This time, I could understand them.


    "... what do we do now? That life form we found was part of Earth''s society. They will no it is missing," one of the things said.


    Earth. Are they talking about me?


    "We will dump the body into the woods. No one will question what happened. Now, our escaped Neotorn has finally awoken from his narcotics and our experiments will continue once we get into orbit," said the other one.


    Now I think I understand. I''ve been abduced by aliens.


    I heard a loud boom and then nothing. Around me, nothing seems to have happened. I continued my journy.


    I came across many rooms. One room was larger than the others. I went inside and saw what words could barely describe.


    It was some kind of bridge. It looked like one of those from alien ships in movies. There was a large window with stars on the other side.


    I continued to where my instincts told me to go.


    I found a room that had a weird symbol on it. I went inside and found two creatures. One was the one that attacked me, and the other was similar to the other one.


    But this one had a more slender body. Insead of red, all the neon parts were purple. I also saw more fluid eyes instead of jagged. it was beutiful. its teath were less as long as the other one''s.


    I concentrated and saw that my instincts were telling me to go to the red one. I went closer to where I wanted to be.


    I saw everything go dark. I woke up inside the creature. then I blackout.

 Where am I?

    I woke up inside of a slightly dark neon blue space. I couldn''t move around that much though.


    I could see through the space I was in and saw rocks around me on the floor. I must be in a cave.


    I turned to see a large, blurry, neon green creature and a large, neon light blue creature around me. I couldn''t see clearly enough through this thing to make out what they were.


    How did I get here? The last thing I remember is becoming a neon blue orb and gowing into that red creature. Either way, I didn''t see any red anywhere. I let out a mental sigh in relief.


    A few minutes later, the two creatures were gone. I used this time to try to get out of my confined prison.


    I managed to feel the wall. It was a soft, smooth material. When I tried to break it, it just stretched. I was stuck.


    That red creature must have put me in some kind of prison. I felt to tired to try and break out of this thing. I looked around one more time and saw nothing.


    I passed out before I could do anything else.


    The next few days were way to boring. I did get a little more control of my limbs over the next few days.


    Today, I was just minding my buisness.


    I pushed my arm against the wall. My hand broke through the wall. I can finally get out.Stolen story; please report.


    When my hand wwnt through the wall, it was hit by a wave of cold air. I quickly withdrew my hand from the hole.


    I was conflicted. Either I finally get out of here, or I get hypothermia. I was thinking when I felt cold all over my body.


    I realized that there was some liquid inside this thing and it leaked out. I realized that my decision was made for me.


    I moved my head to the hole and pushed it out.


    I breathed in fresh air. My eyes were blurry from the liquid. I managed to get the rest of my body out. After I got out, I was exhausted.


    Before I passed out, I saw the two large creatures from before. I was to cold to focus on anything and passed out.


    I woke up a while later. I felt warm. My eyes were still a little blurry, but I could sort of make out my surroundings.


    Before I could look around, I saw a familiar looking face a few meters away from me. It looked like the same creature that attacked me in the forest, but it was neon green.


    I was terrified. It was way bigger than me. The face itself had to be at least a little over twice my size. My heart was beating really fast. I was hyperventilating.


    Then I saw a large white tail with neon light blue around it curl around me. It was nearly as tall as I was. I was freaking out so much that I didn''t notice that I was up against another one of these creatures.


    This one had pur white skin with neon light blue all over it in the same patterns as the others I''ve seen. It ws looking at me with tired looking eyes. Its eyes were neon light blue. it had four eyes. But they were more round and not jagged like the green one.


    I closed my eyes, waiting for my demise. But Then I felt something nuzzle the right side of my face. I opened my eyes and saw the white one''s head going away from me and laying back down on the ground.


    Why didn''t it eat me? But then I noticed something else. I was calmer now.


    I managed to calm down a little more and curl up against the white one before falling asleep.


    But as I was drifting to sleep, I noticed that I had a tail. I couldn''t process that before I fell asleep.

 A new life I guess

    I woke up in my bed at home. Thank god, it was all just a dream. My room looked just like how I left it. Funny...I don¡¯t remember going to bed last night. In fact, I don¡¯t even remember coming home.


    I got out of bed and went downstairs into the kitchen. I found my mom in the kitchen making breakfast.


    ¡±Mom, what¡¯s for breakfast?¡± I said.


    she didn¡¯t answer. I walked over to her and snapped my fingers in her face.


    My mom always ignores me while she¡¯s cooking something. Once, I even had to smack her in the back of the head just to get her attention. I got grounded for a week for doing that.


    She turned toward me with a smile on her face. Something seemed different about her.


    She said, ¡°Hello. You must be hungry after what happened last night.¡±


    ¡±Wait what happened last night?¡±


    ¡±Sweety, you got lost in the woods, remember?¡±


    She punched me in the arm playfully. She never did that, ever. I didn¡¯t even feel the punch. This wasn¡¯t my mom.


    ¡°Who are you?¡± I ask.


    Before she can answer, everything turns black.


    I wake up to a bright light. I feel really groggy. The first thing I notice, besides the bright light, is my head on the ground. I can¡¯t see really well for some reason. My eyes feel like they are covered in weird stuff. The light isn¡¯t helping either.


    The first thing I see is...stone? Where am I? I lift my head up slightly and then my neck started hurting slightly. I managed to lift my head up enough to look around. As I looked around, my memory came flooding back. That¡¯s when I notice the two large sleeping creatures from last night.


    Well, actually, I could only see the white one. The green one wasn¡¯t there. At least, I don¡¯t think it was. I focused more on the white one. It was way bigger than the one that attacked me. It was still asleep.


    I tried to get up and go away, but my legs weren¡¯t working. Neither were my arms. I look at my arms and see something that made my body freeze. My hands looked like claws, four fingered claws. I looked at my arm and saw greenish blue splotches all over. I looked behind me at my legs and I froze up at what I saw. My legs were sort of like my hands and arms, but what had my full attention was on a tail. My tail.


    When did I get a tail? My tail also had those greenish blue splotches. I could barely move it.Thats when I noticed something weird. My neck was turning around like it was longer. I could barely see my back, but I was able to see greenish blue spikes going down my back to the tip of my tail.This tale has been unlawfully lifted without the author''s consent. Report any appearances on Amazon.


    What happened to me!? I start freaking out. If I was able to move my limbs, I would be thrashing about right now. I started breathing heavily.


    I started trying to somehow get up against the wall next to me. The wall I got up against felt warm.


    Thats when I notice that the wall I was up against wasn¡¯t a wall, it was the white creature. I didn¡¯t realize that as I was trying to get up against the white one, I accidentally woke it up.


    I was paralyzed in fear now. Then I noticed something else. The creature looked similar to the one that attacked me, but it had more of a reptile like body and head. The creature looked at me dead in the eyes.


    I guess I was hyperventilating because I suddenly felt light headed. I tried to curl up and closed my eyes. Once again waiting to be eaten.


    I waited for a few seconds. Then I practically jumped when I felt something touch my side. I opened my eyes and saw the creature nuzzling my side carefully and lovingly. I felt like I was being cared for. I was both afraid and intrigued by what was happening.


    I looked over the white creatures body and saw the same looking arms as me, well I guess they are now front legs. It also had the same looking back legs as me, too. I looked at the tail and spikes. The creatures were longer and sharper looking than mine and it¡¯s tail looked longer than mine.


    I heard the creature make a soothing thrumming sound. The sound was mesmerizing to me. The creature kept making the thrumming noise. All of the sudden, I felt tired. I let out a big yawn and then my eyes felt heavy. The thrumming sound was like a lullaby that would put anyone to sleep.


    That¡¯s when the thrumming noise stopped slightly. I saw the creature look at something near the bright light source. I couldn¡¯t see what it was over the creatures tail. I guess it wrapped its tail around me while I was mesmerized by the sound. That¡¯s when I noticed the other creature appear. So it did leave.


    The creature looked exactly like the one I was with, except for a few things. It looked different from when I saw it last night. It looked slightly bigger than the white one. It also had dark grey scaly looking skin with neon green splotches that glowed slightly. It also had a more scary looking reptile head, but not so scary.


    speaking of scared, I was starting to get scared again from looking at the creature that just arrived. First, the grey one went over to the white one and then they nuzzled each other.


    Wait, wait, wait. The only reason I can think of for why they would do that is... that they are mates.


    I was now processing this. If the white was treating me like a mother would do to a baby, and the grey one is it¡¯s mate, and they care for me, does that mean I¡¯m their...baby? So that means the are my...parents? My head is hurting from processing all of this.


    I noticed the grey one come over to where I was and then looked at me. I was a little scared of it. I just curled up against the white one. I heard the white one start making a noise that sounded like a combination between a slight roar and a lizard sound. Then I heard another sound from the grey one. It sounded sort of the same as the white one but a deeper tone and with a slight growl.


    After that, I heard the white one start to make the thrumming sound again. I slightly uncurled myself. Then I realized that if these creatures were my parents, who was my new mom and dad.


    I guess the white one is my mom since she was basically lulling me to sleep with I guess is a lullaby. That means the grey one is my dad.


    While my mom was still making that thrumming sound, I felt myself start to fall asleep. I felt myself lose all mental energy I had left. But before I fell asleep, I curled up against my new mom and slowly, I fell asleep.

 Arken

    (Arken)


    I arrived home to find Steller, my mate, humming a lullaby to our new son. He finally woke up. When he first hatched, he fainted. I was hoping to see him awake soon. Steller said he woke up in the middle of the night. I was asleep, but now I get to see him awake.


    I entered our cave to find Steller with her tail wrapped around our son and humming. I could see him clearly enough to noticed he was about to fall asleep. When I entered the cave, Steller stopped humming and looked in my direction.


    She said in a very quiet tone, ¡°Stay quiet or you¡¯ll wake him up fully.¡±


    I walked over to her and nuzzled her for a second. Then I turned my attention to our son.


    He had light grey skin and his color marks are a combination of mine and Steller¡¯s. He was so small and adorable.


    I watched as he slightly woke up a bit. Then he looked at me. What happened next I didn¡¯t expect. He curled up against Steller and closed his eyes.


    I heard Steller let out a slight giggle. Then, still slightly giggling, she said, ¡°Looks like he is scared of you.¡±


    I let out a sigh and said, ¡°Hopefully he won¡¯t next time he wakes up.¡± Then I chuckled slightly.


    After that, Steller began humming again. He slightly uncurled himself and opened his eyes. After a few seconds, he fell asleep.


    A few seconds after he fell asleep, I heard Steller let out a sigh. I looked at her and she said, ¡°Do you think he¡¯ll be safe?¡±


    I knew what she meant. Since I was the alpha of this area, I had a few rival alphas that wouldn¡¯t hesitate to kill him if they got the chance.


    I just said, ¡°Yes.¡±


    I knew she didn¡¯t believe me, neither did I. But he is the only son I have and the next alpha of this area. If he dies, this area will be free to conquer by any other alphas.


    I left to go hunting. I knew that he would definitely be hungry when he woke up. I also knew that since Steller can¡¯t go hunting either, she will be hungry, too.The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.


    I joined with two of my closest allies and prepared a hunting party. We were going to hunt at the edge of my territory.


    When we arrived, we split up and headed in different directions. I had to collect food for Steller and my son. My allies didn¡¯t know that I had a son. As far as they knew, The only reason why Steller hasn¡¯t come out of our cave was because she was injured. I ate while hunting and brought food back for only Steller and our son.


    I was stalking a decolizard, our main source of food in my territory, when something rammed my side and sent me a few feet away. I got up and looked at what rammed me.


    When I saw who it was, I got territorial. It was a rival alpha named Necro. Necro and I were rivals since the day we met. He loved to make me fell weak and helpless. He was also my worst enemy of all the other alphas. He comes into my territory to hunt and attack me whenever he gets the chance.


    Necro looked at me and said, ¡°Well, well, well. If it isn¡¯t Arken.¡±


    ¡±This isn¡¯t your territory, Necro. Leave now and I will pretend you never came here.¡± I said.


    He started to circle me and said, ¡°Now where¡¯s the fun in that. I was hopping for a fight today. My front claws are itching to shred you.¡±


    I faced him and said, ¡°I don¡¯t have time for this. I have to collect food for me and Steller.¡±


    He growled in response. Before Steller became my mate, Necro was trying to get her to be his mate. Back then we didn¡¯t hate each other that much. But when I became Steller¡¯s mate, Necro was filled with rage. From that point on, he hated me more than anything else in the world.


    Necro stopped circling me and said, ¡°Why isn¡¯t Steller hunting as well?¡± In an intrigued tone.


    At this point, I was sick of dealing with him, so I told Necro about the ¡®accident¡¯.


    I sighed and said, ¡°A few days ago, she was attacked by a barker (a rival species to ours) and was hurt. That¡¯s why I¡¯m collecting food.¡±


    Even though Necro wanted to kill me, I knew he still liked Steller.


    He said, ¡°Fine, you can leave, but just this once.¡±


    Then Necro vanished into the bushes and trees.


    After that I did manage to catch that decolizard along with a breakerbird. I brought the prey back to the cave.


    Our son was still asleep. Steller ate her food. As for our son, Steller nudged him slightly. He was still asleep. We kept his food for later.


    After Steller finished, she looked at our son and said, ¡°We still have to name him. What do you think about the name Sapera?¡±


    I giggled slightly at that name. I saw her let out a slight and she said, ¡°What¡¯s the problem with Sapera!?¡±


    Just then, our son stirred slightly causing Steller to slightly jump.


    Then I said, ¡°Nothings wrong with it. It¡¯s just that it doesn¡¯t sound like a boy name. What about Draco?¡±


    She looked at me and said, ¡°Not that one, but I like how it sounds. What about Drace?¡±


    I let out a slight giggle. She said, ¡°What is it now!?¡±


    I managed to stop giggling and said, ¡°Nothing. Drace is perfect.¡±


    After that, I began feeling tired. I watched as Steller fell asleep curled around Drace. After looking at the entrance to make sure everything was safe, I went to sleep, too

 The Outside

    (Drace)


    I woke up this morning with a slight headache, but it slowly went away. The first thing I did was look around.


    New mom with her tail curled around me, check. Slightly dark cave looking place, check. New dad, no check. My new dad was gone. I didn¡¯t really care about that, honestly. In my old life, my dad was both abusive and distant towards me. I never liked him.


    Once, on my own birthday, my dad made me rake the yard, do the laundry, mow the lawn, and he didn¡¯t even thank me. In fact, my dad threatened that if I didn¡¯t, he wouldn¡¯t throw me a birthday party. Even after doing everything he said, which almost took the whole day, he didn¡¯t throw me a birthday party. When I asked him why, he said that I didn¡¯t deserve a birthday at all. I was seven.


    I was scared of my old dad, and my new dad looks even scarier. I want to avoid him right now.


    Back to now. I felt my legs. I could actually move them. I stood up and had a look around. I could barely see over my new mom¡¯s tail. I started to crawl over her tail, which was hard. She was stilling sleeping and my legs still felt a little numb.


    After I stumbled over my mom¡¯s tail, I fell and then looked around. A few inches in front of me was a large rock. I got up and saw a line of rocks going all around me and my mom. This must be some kind of nest or something. If I could barely climb over my moms tail, then I definitely couldn¡¯t climb over these rocks.


    I was able to walk along the edges of the nest until I finally found a hole between the rocks that was big enough for me to go through.This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road. If you spot it on Amazon, please report it.


    As I crawled through the hole, I saw a large opening. Once I got through the hole, I was able to walk far enough to see the opening. Then I collapsed. I saw a large tree trunk at the opening. Above the tree trunk was vines dangling from the ceiling.


    I found another hole underneath the trunk and crawled through that. It was too bright for me. My eyes hurt a lot. I walked aimlessly through the area until my eyes adjusted.


    But when my eyes adjusted, what I saw was beautiful. I was in the middle of a forest. The grass was greener than anything I ever saw. Same with the leaves. The trunks, however, weren¡¯t brown but green as well. At first I thought it was moss, but when I got closer, I realized it was the bark.


    the grass and trees weren¡¯t the only things that were beautiful, I could barely see it, but I swear the sky is a mix between aqua and orange.


    I managed to get pass that fact and continue walking. Everything was so beautiful and interesting that I always had to stop and look around every once and a while. Then I found something that interested me the most, a large blue mushroom.


    The mushroom actually was mesmerizing. Then I realized I haven¡¯t eaten anything in this life yet. My legs also felt numb and weak, I still had a slight headache, and I was starving to death.


    I took a decent sized bite. Then I felt strange. I should have known that these mushrooms are poisonous. I guess I was to hungry to care.


    everything starts to become dizzy and the whole world started spinning. I don¡¯t know what or how, but the next thing I knew, I was at some weird stone place with seven pillars around me. I saw weird pictures on each pillar. But I was too groggy and dizzy to see exactly what was on the pillars.


    I must have walked aimlessly to this place, wherever here is. That mushroom is bad stuff.


    I was able to look around the area for a few seconds and saw weird stuff. I could have sworn I saw a bunch of snow right next to lava or something.


    After that, I started walking aimlessly again like a drunk person would act. The next thing I knew, I was around the entrance to the cave from earlier.


    I felt even more sick now. That dang mushroom. I started trying to throw up that thing. In the end, I succeeded. But then I passed out. That dang mushroom.

 The Blord

    (Drace)


    I woke up again still in front of the cave. My head hurt a little, so did my stomach. That mushroom hurt. That¡¯s when I noticed the remains of the mushroom. It was a small pile of glowing blue stuff. I could throw up again if I had anything left in my stomach.


    But something changed in my head, I think. I don¡¯t know what, but I think it is because of that darn mushroom. Whatever it was, for some reason, I don¡¯t care. The only thing on my mind right now is what those stones were.


    ¡±Stones?¡± I heard something say.


    I jumped back at listening. I fell butt first and ended up on my back. I got up as quickly as I could, which took about a minute, and looked around. Nothing. There was no creature in sight.


    ¡±I am not just any creature young one,¡± I heard whatever it was say.


    then, from the trees, I large bird like creature flew out of the leaves and landed in front of me. It wasn¡¯t the size of my parents, but it was at least three times my size. It had neon green feathers, no wonder I couldn¡¯t see it. It also had two, bright orange eyes. It had two large, scaly wings with sharp claws on each wing tip. It¡¯s tail was short and covered with feathers. It¡¯s head had a long beak with sharp, jagged edges.


    I was scared, not as scared when I saw my dad, but close to it.


    ¡±Calm down, little one. You have no reason to be afraid,¡± the creature said in a soothing voice.This tale has been pilfered from Royal Road. If found on Amazon, kindly file a report.


    I didn¡¯t like this bird brain one bit.


    ¡±Who are you calling bird brain, tiny!¡± It shouted.


    ¡¯Wait a minute. Can you read my thoughts?¡¯ I thought.


    ¡°Why yes, I can. I am a blord after all!¡± it said.


    ¡¯Whats a blord?¡¯ I thought.


    the blord scoffed slightly and said, ¡°A blord is a telepathic bird. We can read minds, but only when we want to. Now back to the subject, what are these stones your talking about?¡±


    ¡¯Well, there were these seven pillars with I think pictures on them,¡¯ I thought.


    The blord went wide eyed and started shouting in happiness and dancing about. I tilted my head slightly in confusion and waited for the blord to stop doing whatever the heck it was doing. Eventually the darn bird stopped. But it stopped so suddenly that it made me afraid for a second. I could see fear in it¡¯s eyes. It looked away from the cave and into the forest. I looked as well. I saw the shrubs start moving.


    Then the blord started flapping it¡¯s wings and then swooped down and grabbed me and flew up into the tree. Once the blord landed in the trees, it watched down below. I watched, too. Suddenly, a large, familiar creature came out of the forest and went into the cave. It was my dad.


    The blord whispered, ¡°That neotorn is your father?¡±


    ¡¯yeah. What¡¯s a neotorn?¡¯ I thought.


    ¡±Neotorns are the dominant species here. And that Neotorn is the alpha of life,¡± The blord said.


    ¡¯Alpha of life,¡± I thought.


    Just as the blord was about to answer me, dad stopped walking and looked directly at us. Right as he made I contact with me, the blord took off with me in his bird like feet. I was suddenly jolted by the sudden motion of the blord. I think he damaged my spine.


    I watched as the blord flew, my dad looked at us for a moment, then he ran into the cave. I could hear a loud, angry roar from him. If there was money here, I would bet five bucks that dad thinks this blord kidnapped me, which he did in a sense.


    I heard the blord laugh a little. Then he said, ¡°He does not sound happy. Now tell me where those stones are.


    I thought about where they were and then the blord began flying toward the stones.


    Well, I think it began flying there. I don¡¯t know.

 Kidnapped

    (Arken)


    I don¡¯t know how it happened. I was just walking home when I saw Drace in the clutches of a blord. At first, I thought it was just a rikor (lizard bear like thing). But when I got closer, I realized it was a baby neotorn. Just as I noticed what it was, the blord flew off fast.


    I continued looking at them for a brief moment. Then I practically felt my heart stop when I realized something, that baby neotorn resembled Drace.


    I quickly went into the cave, nearly tripping over the tree trunk at the entrance. I quickly went toward Steller. She was still asleep. Then I looked for Drace.


    He wasn¡¯t where I last saw him. I looked around the cave, but all I found was meat, rocks, and moss. I even looked around the entrance for him. I shouted in anger.


    Then I saw something I must have over looked as I entered the cave. It was a small, blue puddle of I have no idea. I snIf fed the puddle. It was Drace¡¯s scent. But also smelled like bluefisher (a type of poisonous mushroom that permanently makes you a little out of it).


    Drace must have ate one and threw it up. That¡¯s good, for now.


    I heard Steller wake up. I went in to see how she was.


    She looked slightly groggy. How can¡¯t she. She has been on the ground, guarding Drace for two days.


    she looked at where Drace had been. When she saw he wasn¡¯t there, she looked around.


    Then she looked at me and in a slightly worried tone, said, ¡°Where is Drace?!¡±


    I told her the truth. I looked out the cave entrance and said, ¡°A blord took him.¡±Unauthorized reproduction: this story has been taken without approval. Report sightings.


    I could hear her heart nearly stop. She was panicking. Why wouldn¡¯t she. We just lost our son.


    Then she walked out of the cave and looked around. Then she sniffed the puddle of blue stuff.


    Almost to tears, she said, ¡°Drace left this.¡±


    I nodded. I was almost in tears myself.


    Steller started walking in the direction that Drace¡¯s scent was going.


    ¡±Where are you going?¡± I said.


    She stopped walking and turned toward me. I could see in her eyes both sadness and anger. Mostly anger.


    Steller, in an angry tone, said, ¡°I¡¯m going to go get my son back from that . . . that blord. Arn¡¯t you coming?¡±


    She was mad. I said, ¡°How? That blord could have taken him anywhere. Drace could be anywhere.¡±


    Then she looked at me with pure anger in her eyes. Then I said, ¡°Let¡¯s go.¡±


    Steller followed Drace¡¯s scent and I followed Steller.


    We weren¡¯t actually following his scent, but his magic aura. We followed it to a sligh clearing. There, we found the bluefisher he ate.


    Then, we followed him to almost the edge of the forest. But then his magic aura just disappeared. No direction. It was just gone. There was nothing around but trees.


    Steller looked at me and, in a scared tone, said, ¡°Where¡¯s Darce¡¯s scent? It just disappeared.¡±


    I took the lead and looked. Steller was right. But I know where we are.


    I looked at Steller and said, ¡°Drace¡¯s scent didn¡¯t disappear. It was blocked.¡±


    Steller tilted her head in confusion. Then she said, ¡°What blocked it? How is this possible?¡±


    I looked back in the direction that Drace¡¯s scent was going and then said, ¡°The ancient stones.¡±


    Steller looked at me and asked, ¡°What ancient stones?¡±


    I look at her and say, ¡°Only alphas know about the legend. The legend says that the ancient stones were a mark to this world. The stones were also said to hold great power. It¡¯s were alpha¡¯s get their magic energy from.¡±


    I could see that Steller was still confused. Then she said, ¡°But how does it block Drace¡¯s scent? It doesn¡¯t make any sense.¡±


    I said, ¡°The Stones have the ability to block any kind of magic , including magic auras.¡±


    Steller perked up and said, ¡°Does that mean Drace is in there?¡±


    I looked back in that direction and said, ¡°Hopefully.¡±


    Steller started walking pass me and toward that direction.


    ¡±Where are you going?¡± I ask.


    She stopped walking and looked at me and said, ¡°To find Drace.¡±


    Then she continued walking. I followed.

 The Stone Pillars

    (Drace)


    The trip to the stones was longer than any trips I¡¯ve been on. How did I get there and back home? Who knows.


    The blord was flying and asking me questions about the stones. I told him everything I knew a long time ago, but he was still consistent with the questions. I was getting too tired for this. Every time the blord asked me a question, I either told it what I knew or that I didn¡¯t remember.


    But then the blord asked me, ¡°Did you feel anything strange while you were there?¡±


    I was sick with the questions. I was sick of thinking, too. So I just stayed there and thought about nothing and just enjoyed the view.


    I tried to drown out the blord¡¯s voice. But the the blord started shaking me violently and didn¡¯t stop. But when he did stop, he asked the same question over and over again.


    Eventually I got sick of this even more and thought, ¡®I don¡¯t remember.¡¯


    The shaking stopped. Finally. The blord then asked me a question that was, I think, completely off topic.


    The blord asked, ¡°Your father is that neotorn from earlier, right?¡±


    I nodded. I was too tired to answer in words or thoughts. After that, the blord stopped asking me questions. It was silent for a long time.


    I no longer felt safe with the blord and thought it was going to kill me.


    Thats when we saw the stones. But it looked different than before. The stone circle was the same, but the pillars were gone except one. And that pillar was in the center.The narrative has been taken without permission. Report any sightings.


    Once we got close, the blord dropped me onto the stone circle and then landed in front of me facing the pillar.


    Then everything felt strange. It felt like something was being ripped from my soul or something. But that wasn¡¯t all.


    The pillar in the center disappeared. So did everything outside of the circle. Then seven pillars just appeared out of nowhere.


    This made no sense.


    This was strange. I could tell that the blord thought that this was strange, too.


    I noticed each pillar had a symbol on it. Som elf the symbols looked like things I could make out. But others I couldn¡¯t.


    There was a pillar with a skull on it, a water drop, and a snowflake. But I couldn¡¯t tell what the other four symbols were of.


    ¡±Where are we?¡± The blord asked.


    I didn¡¯t respond. I was hoping the blord would try to get me to answer.


    Then I noticed something strange. One of the symbols I didn¡¯t know was glowing green. The others weren¡¯t glowing at all.


    I looked at the blord and thought, ¡®Do you know what this means?¡¯


    The blord didn¡¯t respond.


    I looked back at the symbol to see what it was of. It had a rectangle like bottom and then swirls at the top.


    The pillar to the right of the green glowing one started glowing purple. The pillar that was glowing was the one with the skull on it.


    I backed up a little. That¡¯s when two large cloud looking things flowed up from the ground and then formed two large domes. When the domes dropped, two large neotorns were there.


    These neotorns were black with red patterns. I quickly went and hid behind the blord.


    I the neotorns make roars and growls.


    Then the blord said, ¡°Please don¡¯t kill me. I will give you something if you don¡¯t.¡±


    I heard more growls and roars before the neotorn stepped to the side.


    after a few seconds, I heard more roars and growls. Then the blord said, ¡°This baby neotorn is something that has never been seen before. Let me live, and I¡¯ll tell you why.¡±


    I tried to run away. But then the blord grabbed me and slammed me head first into a pillar. My eyes were fuzzy after that. And my head hurt a lot.


    Even though I couldn¡¯t see clearly, I think I saw the blord get smacked by one of the neotorn¡¯s tail.


    After that, I sort of was out of it. The next thing I knew. I was being held in the mouth of one of the neotorns. I saw the other neotorn with the blord in it¡¯s mouth.


    Everything went bright white. The next thing I knew, we were off the stone circle and the grass was dead. So were the trees. It was also dark.


    I felt something sharp cut into my back and torso. After that, I passed out. Most likely from either pain or blood loss. Most likely pain.
