The punk that breathes fire

a vessel for fire pt 1

jack POV

its warm. so very warm. but when I open my eyes its too dark to see anything. I can see myself but everything else is pitch black. then from the darkness a voice echoed

dragon: the young dragon finally awakens.

jack: where am I?

dragon: your currently in a space shared be tween your consciousness and mine.

jack: but why am I here?

dragon: your body is adapting to the flesh and blood you consumed. after that large blast of fire you unleashed your body went into coma. while your body rests it will change in many ways.

jack: (sigh) why do I keep walking into mess after mess?  so how long will i be like this and how much time has passed?

dragon: its hard to tell. your current situation depends on you entirely. but I admit that is my fault. my final wish will at times become challenging. but these challenges will shape you and help you grow into a true dragon. when I can I will help you along the way but for now rest little one. you will have more then the fire to worry about when you wake.

jack: wait!

but the voice disappeared. the world around me ignited into flames consuming my vison and waking me. my body shot upas I gasped for air. my eyes darted around trying to understand my surroundings. I was in some sort of hospital room. searching the room I realized my jacket and shirt lay on the chair beside my bed and that a heart monitor was attached to my chest. I ripped off the sensors and tried to get up but my body failed me. I fell onto the floor beside my bed with a heavy thud. when I tried getting up something long and dark covered my face.

jack: is this my hair?

I grabbed the long strands of hair and realized my hair had grown significantly longer. it reached middle of my back and felt soft. how long was I unconscious? the door flew open with a male nurse looking at me with panic. he walked over and helped me back onto the bed.

jack: thank you. where am I exactly?

nurse: your currently staying in vales hospital.

jack: so I made it back. how long was I out?

nurse: you were only brought in last night. so you've been out for almost  24 hours

Jack: well that's not too bad. Wait was there someone else when I came in? A girl named Gwen?

Nurse: I'm afraid not air. You were the only one admitted. Although you were dropped off by a strange person in magenta armor. She left a note for you as well.

Jack: I guess I'll find more answers later when I get back to beacon.

Nurse: oh are you a student of beacon? I'll give them a call to update them on where you've been. Please relax while we contact them.

I nodded and watched him leave the room. As the door closed I sat back up and started feeling my long hair. how did my hair so long if its only been a day? ah shit that means ruby's probably taking care of the wolf. well I doubt shed hate watching him.

a little while later the nurse returned with the doctor. the doctor conducted a few health exams and told me I seemed perfectly healthy compared to the night before. she asked if I could stay one more day to monitor my vitals just to make sure I didn't have another fever. apparently I when I was brought in I had an intense fever and she thought I was going to die but after a few hours the fever broke and I was fine. I refused her offer and told here I needed to leave and take care of some personal business. I told here to bill beacon academy for any hospital bills. she said shed get me discharged in just a bit and I could wait in the lobby. I thanked the two of them and started to get my stuff together.
