The Insanity of Draconix-Chapter 2-The Finding

Drake sat up in his bed and looked around. It was still pitch black so he knew it couldn’t be after 6:30, he knew pretty well what time it could be just by looking at how light or dark out. He then looked to his clock and it was just before two. He sighed, knowing he couldn’t go back to sleep. For the past couple of weeks he’s been having the same dream with that same orb thing. Sometimes he was in different places, but the same thing kept happening, a voice screaming at him that sounded like it was coming from inside his head but he knew this couldn’t be true.

“Ok this is getting too tiresome.” He said as he went to his closet and in the way back was a loose piece of wood and behind that was where he had a little secret stash and in it he had one of the things he liked most, a black bottle with a green Japanese label that looked like a chicken with a pen on its foot wrote it. The black haired insomniac went to go sit at his desk, turned on his little TV, and watch the news while he poured himself a shot of sake. Sake is one of Drake’s favorite drink because its alcohol but instead of it being cold, sake is a warm alcoholic drink. He was wearing his usual dark clothing of shorts and a loose black short sleeve shirt. He drank his shot of alcohol that burned as it made its way to its resting place. Then proceeded to pour another shot,  he was watching the new of some murder which he only ever glanced at so often, he took another shot after another till he was feeling the effects he knew all too well. After a couple of minutes in deep thinking of what this dream was that always woke him never letting him sleep and watching his late night murder story on the news he saw something that nearly made him drop his drink. Right there on the TV he saw it but only for a second, but for Drake that’s all he needed to know what it was.

“The orb.” He cursed himself on the inside because he thought it never existed but now it did and he wanted…no…needed it. So he thought quickly and before he knew it a plan came to mind. He quickly got dress in some dark blue jeans that were faded around the knees and back of the calf he still wore his black shirt but with just a black hoodie over it. He then slipped on his socks and black converses and headed out the window leaving it barley cracked so he could get back up to his room. He left his door ‘locked’ and when he left he chose his black bicycle instead of his red motorcycle with black flames he liked so much he never liked driving cars, that’s why when he could he fought for his motorcycle tooth and nail. The raven haired teen thought the motorcycle would cause to much noise and he need to be as quick as possible but also as quiet as possible. He knew the city well, like where all the thugs went to do ‘business’ or where the cheap but reliable stores were, among a many other things. Now even though he knew where practically everything was the group home he lived at was about a thirty minuet drive or in his case an hours’ worth of pedaling to get to the city and another 15 or so minuets to get where he needed. When he was finally there he was thinking of how to get in and even if he did how to even make sure his item was in that building? But just then an evil grim went across his face as he made his way to one of the local stores nearby. Now his plan worked perfectly, he walked into a store and stole something so the cops would take him into custody. As of right now he is sitting in a chair in the police station within a seclude section of the office with his hand zip tied to the chair, but that didn’t worry him none because the cop forgot to check his pockets.

“Ok let’s see here…wait…it seems I’m out of the proper form to get you into the system. Damn paperwork I think it would be easier if we could just put you guys into the system directly.” He made his way to the door and turned back to drake with a grin.

“Now don’t you go anywhere ok I will be right back” Drake looked at him and with a small grin of his own. “Oh trust me I’m not planning on it.” He then gave his arm little shake. But the officer mistake his grin, thinking it was a joke thought nothing of it and left closing the door behind him. As soon as drake heard the click he went right to work. He cut himself free with his pocket knife and quickly searched the office and the only thing he found that was useful was a spare key card. Just then he got onto the computer and to his surprise saw it was already logged in. ‘ok let’s see where you are’ he said in his mind. The next thing he knew he found it. ‘Case number 218, basement level. Ok’ he soon made his way out the office and quickly found a set of stair cases and walked down, making sure no one saw him. He made it there and with a quick swipe of the card he was in. ‘let’s get to work’ he walked with a quick pace up and down the many rows of evidence till he found what he was looking for. He opened the box and dug until he got the orb. He tore open the plastic and as soon as he touched it he saw the symbols glow on it like how it did in his dreams that plagued him. It was cold but made him feel warm inside as he stared into it watching the symbols glow that seemed to never end. He snapped himself out of it and put the orb in his bag. He then proceeded to leave the police station only to be stopped by the same officer who had him in his room.

The officer grinned and looked at him. “Ha, knew you would do it.” Now at this moment drake was confused and only slightly showed it. “It’s ok your fine, sort of besides tampering in evidence making it corrupted and possibly ruined a case so the guys here could never find the murder now.” Drake now felt kind of bad but he felt like he needed to get this orb. “Eh don’t worry about it we got bigger fish to fry. Here take this, it will get you out of here and drake if that’s what you call yourself now….” The man took a pause. “…I’ll stay in touch.” He gave drake the sheet of paper and it read for his release.

‘What the hell?’ drake asked himself on the inside. He didn’t want to think about it anymore he just wanted to go home. So after he left the station with now a record and really nothing more than that made his way home. He got there just as the sun was coming up and got into his room. After a few minutes of putting away his sake and examining the orb more closely but with no avail of finding anything else besides it glowing now from when he first touched it he went to bed. He was soon asleep and long gone away from this world and into his own.
