(Dragon Wars) Lost Hope

Chapter 18: Theyre Coming!

It all felt so strange to me, as to all that was even going on right at this very moment in time, as I heard the wings of hundreds of dragons flying with me right now, as I would say that it kind of felt like we were going to a gathering except for the fact that I knew that there usually was not this many dragons for one thing, but also the fact that I also knew that there was a lot of other circumstances that we're going on all around us right now.
I did my best to try to stay as calm as I felt like I possibly could, just as a good leader should be doing for their tribe right now, but it was quite a bit hard for me to do as such a thing if I was not going to lie to my self either, as I knew that there were thousands of dragons that were going to be here, to protect the tribe that was about to get attacked for some of the dumbest reasons that I felt like had ever been made, as I for sure had no such sort of respect for Zogan at all, any more.
I felt like Plyma would not have allowed some thing like this, and it would not have surprised me that if Plyma would have seen his father doing as such a thing like this, than he would challenge his father to a fight, which I felt like it would be a close fight, due to the fact that Zogan was a bit more experienced than his son was, but in the end, Plyma was way stronger, and he was way faster than his father was, and he would in the end, over power his father at that.
Sadly, as I shook my head to get my mind and my focus off of all of those other thoughts how ever, that was not the case, as I knew that Plyma was not here right now, though, based off of the foggy dream that I had last night, I felt like he could still be here. I felt like I wanted to talk to my father about the dream that I had, but for one thing, it was too far out of my mind to really remember any thing, but also the fact that we had a lot of other things that we needed to be worried about right at this very moment in time too, other than that, once again.
I did my best to try to get my mind off of all of those thoughts, as I instead got my mind, and my focus on the fact that we were about to go in to a battle, which I knew would lead to a war in the end, at that never the less. I did my best to try to keep my self as calm as I felt like I possibly could, as I knew that I had been in some skirmishes, and I had been in to some battles before, but this felt like it was for sure going to be a lot different than all of that.
Hell, we even had some black dragons that were here right now that we're protecting our land, which came as a bit of a surprise to me, as to the fact that they were even here to protect us all at the exact same time as well, when they knew that this war was all about the fact that had to do with there being a split between the 2 species, it was clear that the leader of this black dragon tribe did not agree with Zogan what so ever.
Though, I could still see quite a bit of some ugly looks on the faces of some of the red dragons, that it seemed like they almost did not want to be around the black dragons, and it seemed like they did not want their help, which I felt like we for sure needed right at this very moment in time too. It seemed like as much as it was that we were all against the side of Zogan, and we did not want to agree with him, it sure as hell kind of seemed like he had got in to the heads of all of us.
I did my best to try to calm my self down, as I got my mind, and I got my focus off of all of the rest of those other thoughts all at the exact same time as well, as I then all of the sudden began to start to get my mind, and I got my focus and my attention on the fact that of course had to do with the fact that I knew there was a lot that was going on around this camp right at this very moment in time as well, any ways, as I then all of the sudden began to start to hear the voice of my father as he began to speak to one dragon in specific all of the sudden.
That was of course the fact that he was in fact speaking to the red dragon leader of the red dragon tribe that we were trying to protect right at this very moment in time as well, as I did my best to try to keep my self as calm as I felt like I possibly could, as I got my mind, and I got my focus off of all of the rest of those other thoughts that I had in fact been thinking on long before now, once again.
I stared at my father, and I stared at the leader of the other red dragons tribe for quite a bit of some time, as I saw that the leader of the red dragon tribe that we were trying to protect right now did in fact nod back to my father, as it seemed like it was quite a bit of a grateful nod all at the exact same time as well, as it was clear that the red dragon was in fact grateful for the fact that we had come to go and protect their tribe from the dragons that were about to come in and attack it, and invade it.
As I saw the leader do as such a thing like that, I quickly did the exact same thing that I had seen him just do, as I too did in fact go on ahead and start to nod back to my father, even though I was fairly certain that my father was not paying me any sort of attention at all right at this very moment in time too, as he should not be, as I knew that his eyes, and his focus should be on the red dragon that he was trying to talk to right now.
As soon as it was that I had in fact gone right on ahead and began to start to nod to my father that was when my father then all of the sudden did in fact begin to start to speak to the red dragon, as it was clear that both he and I were in fact beginning to start to listen as to just what it was that my father was even about to go right on ahead and say to him in the very first place any ways, at that, once again.
"Alright Omplo, we are here to protect your tribe... We don't know how many there will be, but we will fight to the last dragon if needs be... What it is that Zogan is trying to do is evil... I will not stand for any of that..." My father said to Omplo, as he made sure that he had heard as to just what it was that he had even just said to the red dragon in the very first place any ways, as it was clear that my father wanted the leader to know that we were here for him, and that there was nothing to fear for his tribe.
I cracked a bit of a smile on my face all of the sudden, as I kind of felt like if I was not going to lie to my self either, that I was in fact quite a bit proud for my father, as to the fact that he was standing up for us, and he was standing up for the good of all the red dragons such as he was right now, as I was quite a bit afraid if I was not going to lie to my self either, as to just how it was that I was ever going to do some thing as strong and as brave as my father was doing right now when ever the day came that I took over as the leader of our tribe.
I shivered at the thought of it, as I then all of the sudden just did my best to just try to not think on any of that at all what so ever, right at this very moment in time as well, as I then all of the sudden began to start to shake my head a bit to my self all at once, as I got my mind, and I got my focus off of all of the rest of those other thoughts that I had in fact been thinking on long before now, as I then all of the sudden began to start to get my eyes, and I began to start to get my mind on to the fact that my father had in fact just spoken to Omplo, who was of course the leader of the tribe we were protecting.
As I looked over to Omplo, I saw that the dragon seemed to have quite a bit of a look of some guilt on his face right now, as if he felt like he did not deserve all of the help he was getting right at this very moment in time as well, or perhaps it was due to the fact that he felt like there was some thing that he was not telling us, all at the exact same time as well none the less, as I then all of the sudden began to start to tilt my head over to the dragon, and I squinted my eyes over towards him, all at once, as well.
I was not all too sure as to just what it was that was even going on with him if I was going to be for real with my self, as it was quite a bit fishy if I was going to be serious as well, as I was not all too sure as to just what it was that I should be doing right now. I did my best to try to keep my self as calm as I felt like I possibly could, as I felt like I could simply just be over thinking all of this, and I could simply be over reacting about all that was even going on right at this very moment in time any ways once again, at that.
I looked over to my father all of the sudden, as I wondered if he too had in fact seen what it was that I had seen from the red dragon. How ever, when it was that I had in fact looked over to my father right now, I saw that he seemed to just have his eyes some where else, as if he was looking at some thing that was in the clearing that we were in right at this very moment in time as well, which did in fact confuse me quite a bit, if I was going to be for real with my self once again.
I did my best to try to keep my self as calm as I felt like I possibly could, as I got my mind, and I got my focus off of all of those other thoughts that I had in fact been thinking on long before now, as I then all of the sudden began to start to hear the voice of Omplo as he then all of the sudden did in fact begin to finally start to speak back as a bit of a response to my father all of the sudden, as I did in fact all of the sudden turn my head over to him, all at the exact same time as well, once again.
As I stared at the red dragon for quite a bit of some time, I then all of the sudden began to start to see from the corner of my eyes, that my father Peota was now all of the sudden getting his eyes back on to Omplo all at once, as it was clear that my father now had his attention back on to the red dragon thankfully enough, as the both of us were in fact paying attention as to just what it was that Omplo was about to say to my father, as I saw my father then go on ahead and nod to him, just to let him know for sure.
Once it was that Omplo had in fact seen my father do as such a thing like that, he then all of the sudden began to start to go right on ahead and begin to speak to him, all at once, as I let out quite a bit of a soft sigh of some relief to my self all of the sudden, as I then began to start to listen as to just what it was that he even had to say to my father in the very first place any ways, once again.
"Thank you Peota... My tribe really appreciates all that you are doing for us right now... I am glad that we have had this friendship..." He said to my father, as it kind of seemed like he was trying to suck up to my father, as it kind of seemed like he did not really mean as to just what it was that he had even said to my father in the very first place any ways, once again, never the less, which kind of felt quite a bit suspicious to me if I was not going to lie to my self either, as I kept my eyes squinted at the red dragon through all of this.
He still did not seem to be paying me any sort of attention at all what so ever, which of course I felt like I could not blame him for I suppose, as I was not the leader of our tribe, as I felt like if I was, that I would in fact be second guessing all of this, and I would in fact be questioning as to just what it was that Omplo was saying right at this very moment in time too, as I was starting to think a lot of some dark and scary thoughts through my head all of the sudden, all at once.
What if this was a trap? What if we did not really know what it was that was going on right now? I kind of felt like that was not the case at all, and that Omplo was just being weird right now for some odd reason or another, as I felt like out of all of the dragons that were here right now, one of the dragons would feel quite a bit guilty as to the fact that they were trying to trap us, and they would break the chain, and they would break the secret that they were holding.
I did my best to try to calm my self down all at once, as I got my mind, and I got my focus off of all of the rest of those other thoughts, all at once, as I then all of the sudden began to start to think more on the fact that I felt like had to do with the fact that he was kind of like the rest of the red dragons, and he was not all too happy as to the fact that there were black dragons in his camp right at this very moment in time as well, which I felt like I could not really blame him for.
I kind of shook my head a bit to my self all at once how ever, as I got my mind, and I got my focus off of all of the rest of those other thoughts that I had in fact been thinking on long before now once again, as I then all of the sudden began to start to hear the voice of my father as he then did in fact finally begin to start to speak to Omplo, as it was clear that he was not thinking any where near the same things that I was a out that dragon right now at all, none the less.
I felt like I needed to calm my self down, as I knew that my father was a lot older than me, and I knew that my father did in fact know this dragon a lot better than I did, as I just kind of shook my head quite a bit to my self, as I just did my best to get my mind off of all of the rest of that all at once, as I then all of the sudden began to start to see all of the sudden, that Omplo began to start to nod back to my father, to let him know that he too was once again in fact paying attention to him.
I felt like things were going to end up being okay, and I just needed to calm my self down, and get my mind, and get my focus off of all of the rest of those other thoughts that I had in fact been thinking on long before now once again, as I just kind of began to breath in a bit of a soft sigh to my self all of the sudden, as I then began to start to listen as to just what it was that my father even had to say as a bit of a response back to Omplo as well.
"Of course Omplo... You were there when I needed you, so of course I am going to do the same for you..." My father said to Omplo, as I saw that Omplo had quite a bit of a sad smile on his face right now, as I really did not have a clue as to just what it was that my father was even saying right now if I was going to be for real with my self, but I just did my best to try to not think on any of that at all, for all too much longer how ever.
If I had to guess, it was probably the fact that Omplo was scared, and that he was afraid as to just what it was that was going on right now, as it had in fact been over a thousand years since the last time the dragons had a war, as I doubt there was any dragons that were still alive today, to recall all of that which had happened during that time, none the less, as I felt like it made sense that he would be scared, as this was some thing that none of us were used to what so ever.
I just got my mind, and I got my focus off of all of that all at once, as I then all of the sudden began to start to turn my head away, as I looked over at some dragons that I felt like would in fact lift me up quite a bit, which of course in this case happened to be Sola, as I then did in fact stare at her for quite a bit of some time, as I did my best to try to calm my self down in the mean time whilst I did so, though it was quite a bit hard if I was not going to lie to my self either, as I could tell that she too had a bit of a scared look on her face right now, which I knew for a fact was not normal for her.
I looked away from her all at once, as I was glad that she had not noticed the fact that I had in fact just been staring at her just a few seconds before now, as I just tried to look some where else that I felt like would in fact make me feel a little bit better, which was still quite a bit of a hard thing to do if I was not going to lie to my self once again, as I felt like I had a lot of dark, and a lot of fearful thoughts as to just what it was that was going on right now.
My mother was back at camp with quite a few other dragons, as I knew that they were protecting the elder dragons, and they were protecting the young dragons, which I was quite a bit scared for, as I wondered if Zogan could possibly be deciding to go after our camp for some odd reason or another, which I felt like would not be the case what so ever, due to the fact that I knew that it just did not make all too much sense to me as to just why it was that he would do as such a thing for one thing.
Though at the exact same time as well, I also knew that all of this had in fact started due to me, all at the exact same time as well, as I shivered at the thought of all of that, as I was glad that no one seemed to view the current circumstances the way that I did right now, as I knew that there should be a lot of angry dragons at me, all at the exact same time as well.
Once again, I did my best to try to calm my self down, as I knew that I was not the dragon that was in the wrong with the current situation that we were in right now, as I knew that Zogan had not been there to see the way things had gone, and he had not been there to see what it was that Plyma had done. I kind of felt like any ways, that it would not have mattered, as I felt like, just as my father had told me, that Zogan had in fact been planning this for quite a bit of some time, once again.
I shook my head once again, as I got my mind off of that just as I had been trying to do a few moments before hand, as I kind of just stared out in to the woods that were in front of me for quite a bit of some time, as I was not all too sure as to just what else it was that I should really be doing right now besides all of that, as the camp just kind of seemed like it was in a bit of some awkward silence right now, due to the fact that I knew that each and every dragon that was with us right now was in fact quite a bit afraid with just what it was that was even going on right at this very moment in time, in the very first place any ways, none the less.
I shook my head quite a bit to my self once again, as I then all of the sudden began to start to get my mind, and I then all of the sudden began to start to get my focus on the thoughts that had to do with the fact that I was now all of the sudden beginning to start to hear a whole lot of noise all of the sudden, that did in fact let me know, and it let the rest of the dragons know that some thing was coming right now.
I was just quite a bit lost as to just what it was that it could be, as I knew that we had plenty of dragons around the perimeter of the place to make sure that we would know that they were coming when ever it was that they were actually coming in the very first place any ways, once again, as I just did my best to try to keep my self as calm as I felt like I possibly could, as I then all of the sudden began to start to think on some thing that was altogether different from the rest of all of that other stuff.
They were coming weren't they? I could see the looks of fear of all of the dragons that were all around me right now, as I could tell that they were all kind of thinking along the same lines as I was right now, as I saw that a lot of them did in fact jump back quite a bit, as I could tell that they were getting ready to fight, as we all could hear the wings flapping of some dragons that were in fact coming our way right at this very moment in time, in the very first place any ways, once again.
I too did my best to get ready for all of this, as I had my claws out. That was when all of the sudden, I began to start to see that the dragons that were flying back just so happened to be some red dragons, as I tilted my head quite a bit lost as to just what it was that was even going on right now in the very first place any ways, all at once, as I then all of the sudden began to start to see that the dragon at the front, began to step forward to get ready to speak.
It was clear that he was worn out from the fact that he and the rest of the dragons that were here right at this very moment in time as well, had in fact been trying to get here as soon as they could, to warn us. I knew as to just what it was that they were trying to warn us about as well, as I could tell that so did the rest of the tribe, as smart, or as stupid that some of them might even me, all at the exact same time as well, once again.
I did my best to try to keep my self as calm as I felt like I possibly could, though it was quite a bit hard if I was not going to lie to my self either, as I felt like I had a lot of thoughts that were toying with me right at this very moment in time as well. I kind of just shook it off, as I then all of the sudden began to start to hear the voice of the dragon that had in fact stepped up in front of the rest, as he did in fact begin to start to speak to us, all at once, as I began to start to listen as to just what it was that he even had to say to every one that was even here right now, all at the exact same time as well, never the less.
"Everyone get ready! They are coming!"
