Titania and the Card Mage's Little Dragon

Chapter Thirty Eight A New Threat Starts to Stirs/Conflicting Thoughts

September 24th

(Maelys Dragneel) Bah another day another lack of jewels to use to further mine and Sarthurnax's plans to avenge our foster father, I'm getting sick and tired of not making money for our plans ever since we both came out of the shadows we have had many many setbacks in our plans, Even though the city Vistarion has welcomed us with open arms there has been a lack of mercenary jewel contracts for the past few months.

I walked into my apartment before I let out a deep sigh before I plopped onto my couch and I put my head into my hands and I just sat there contemplating on what to do next and even though I know about my birth father's Igneel death at the hands of our foster father as well as the fact that Sarth and I have a younger half brother Natsu I don't know how I truly feel about everything.

The dragon part of me wants to simply say screw it with our plans for revenge on Natsu for the part he played in Acnologia's death but the human part of me is filled with determination to avenge his death as part of the blood oath that he made me swear when I was still a hatchling, I'm so torn on what to do in fact I need some wine to calm my nerves.

I just turned five hundred and ten years old and I know that I'm not getting any younger I really want to settle down and start my own little dragon brood with another one of my dragon kind, Many Many moons ago Sarthurnax settled down with a mate and just over a year ago they had a little female hatchling named Flafieave and she is so cute, I never pictured myself as an aunt to a hatchling in my younger years but I really do enjoy being one.

I wished that things could've been different when Sarthurnax and I were growing up because Acnologia was very harsh and abusive towards us both while growing up and I don't want to have any of my future hatchlings to grow up to resent me for possibly becoming JUST LIKE HIM, Maybe I need just get away for a while to clear my head.

I sat on the couch when I decided that maybe I should go on a little vacation to clear my head of these conflicting thoughts and feelings that I have on the matter, I walked to my bedroom to pack a suitcase for my vacation and once I had packed up everything I grabbed my suitcase and my keys before I walked out of the apartment and I locked up the apartment behind me, I then transformed into my dragon form and I flew off to my new adventure.

It feels so great to be free of my thoughts and worries my favorite part of being part dragon is being able just fly freely whenever I get burdened by everything, Hopefully Igneel's spirit can help me figure out what the best course of action I can do.
