A dragon devouring faeries (TOME 15 of the TIAMAT'S WARS SERIE)

Chaos

At home, well at the temple in the private part, there was a deadly atmosphere.

It was laughable at first, but then it was a disaster.

I went home first with the two screaming humans in my arms and put them in their room.

They each had their own bunk bed and a Kobold friend had come to visit them.

I was standing in front of my Atre with a local Vespalian mead-based alcohol. Very good in itself.

But the little ones were hiding behind me the whole time...

Because...

The big doors opened with a bang and slammed loudly.

Kate, clumsy, had just entered, preceded by the 3 dragons. They were each the size of a rottweiler and triple in length, their jaws and teeth protruding, basically 3 Komodo dragons. That was the closest thing to them, not counting the spikes on their backs and wings.

Kate closed the doors and said in draconian "Excuse me" which translated into a sinister hiss.

She wanted to throw herself on Arnold to lick him.

They defecated and it was total chaos.

I had my powers, but every spell could put me in a coma.

My divine pool was huge and it was total chaos for me.

I threw the little ones on their bed

The Kobold mother screamed in fear. Their Kobold friend hissed and hid under the bed.

Arnold and Louise climbed onto the two-tiered bed and knocked it over. To barricade themselves.

Glacias hissed and threw himself on me.

With surprise and momentum, I toppled backwards

Louise then grabbed a heavy vase and threw it at Glacias to chase her away from me. They thought I was going to be eaten.

I had just enough time to put my hand to protect her head.

It was Jurrassic Park at home live!

Kate growled at Vermillion who was beginning to blow a veil of sleep over the two children.

The excitement and chaos turned the 3 dragonets into dangerous predators and my human children into noisy prey.

I could not harm either of them.

"KATE DAMN IT! THROW SHIELDS AT THE LITTLE ONES!!! VIIITE!"

She pointed with her claw that was as big as Arnold standing.

And he jumped, to avoid the beam... This caused an explosion in the room.

The bed with a powerful shield exploded, its pieces being pushed away.

"IDIOT! "I growled.

Then the door swung open, the carnage, screaming and yelling drew Sarah in.

Seeing a way out the cubs rushed under Kate's paws and passed behind her and like raging raptors, Vermitrax and Glacias launched themselves after their brother and sister.

As their talons began to get dangerous, they skated across the marble floor and Glacias slipped and fell forward, slamming his jaw into the hard ground. A howl of pain followed. She had bitten her tongue a little bit...

it was a heartbreaking scream but to humans, a hellish growl.

"SARAH! THE DOOR! QUICK!"

She turned around and saw the two humans charging in.

They jumped and she was taken by surprise.

She toppled backwards, slipped and cracked her skull on the marble, knocking her out cold. Blood spurted from her nose.

Vermithrax jumped on top of her to bite the runners.

They all came out at once.

"KATE!!! But do something!!!"

She panicked and lost her balance and smashed what was left more or less whole in our house.

The boom was terrible and the bell tower collapsed, entering our room which, in 2 seconds was nothing but rubble.

I had the reflex to transform myself into a black dragon and to protect Sarah from the concrete blocks that accompanied the catastrophe.

Taken by surprise, one of the beams broke my rib. I screamed in pain and, without warning, a spray of black flames shot out of my mouth, piercing the roof and sucking in everything that was lying around outside. Computer, papers, desk (in pieces), glasses, cigars and my collection of liquor bottles, some of which were 3000 years old...

The kids had retreated to a Kobold dormitory.

Seeing the mess, I growled harshly at the dragonets who ran away.

I had reacted stupidly and put my hand to my ribs and saw Sarah lying on the floor and a small pool of blood. "Shit! We broke her skull!"

"KATE!!!!! SARAH!!!"

She whined and started to chase after the dragonets to catch up with them.

"MIKA ... HELP!"

And the Kobold marionette crawled to my feet..

"LORD CARNAGE????"

I took my head between my paws and wanted to curl into a ball but the rubble, and without magic... It was the ordeal of Lego...

I came out of the temple half destroyed, well the whole private wing was like after a bombing.

I took it between my claws to go faster...

"Go get help... Kate has lost it again... Go get Waspy!!!"

Mika: "But Lord!!!!"

"Can't you see she's bleeding! "

Bello arrived and rushed to his companion and saw that she was unconscious.

"Hans?? what happened?"

I didn't dare look at him... I was looking at the horizon... "It...it was an accident... It was Arnold and Louise who bumped into Sarah... she tipped over, her head hit the plate... I'm sorry... My children... they ran away...I don't know where they are but it's dangerous. It is soon the night...

Bello sounded the alarm and the loudspeakers spat out instructions to protect Arnold and Louise...and to get them to the infirmary...

Meanwhile, Mika had cast a minor healing on Sarah, but Enka's blessing had already closed the cuts and the regeneration began.

Mika: "Lord..."

"Stop calling me Lord. Here I am Hans!"

"But you are a god to my people..!"

"GRRRR... There is only one people here! THE VILLAGE... and the Villagers! I don't care about race!!! How many times do I have to say it..."

I was flipping out... and the poor Kobold was stunned...and broke down in tears and crawled in front of my claws so that I would forgive her...

I had tears in my eyes and picked up the poor creature and stroked it against my cheek...

"Mika... no... I'm sorry... I didn't mean to make you cry... You are the sweetest...."

but she was crying like a child.

Then I lay down, lost in the main square.

The lights were shining everywhere and everyone was watching from their balconies, from their front doors.

They could hear the siren, the screams from the loudspeaker, Mika crying. Sarah comforting her... Sarah full of blood... And Kate running down the aisles... Godzilla albino in the streets of the Village... hissing and growling in draconic after the little ones who were terrified. Dragons and humans alike...

Waspy arrived at the carnage: "HANS!! did you hurt SARAH?
