The dragons of Draconus

Chapter twenty-eight

"Brad" Christina called as she walked to him and destiny.

"Chris" Brad greeted and destiny smiled.

"Those dragons work wonders with wounds" destiny said as she checked Christina's arm and head.

"I wanted to thank you both, for saving me from Daniel when you could've let him kill me" Christina stated softly.

"Christina, we didn't help cause we could, we helped cause we had too...... Brad has something important you need to hear" destiny said and Christina looked at the older boy.

"Christina...... I think your my sister" He said. In the distance, stardust tripped, and the three laughed quietly as shimmer helped him up, glancing at them with amusement.

"How? I never had a brother" Christina asked and he showed her his necklace. She showed her's and they fit perfectly together, so she read them.

"You will always be my moon, Brad and David. And you'll always be my sun, Christina and Linsey"

"How old are you?" Brad asked and Christina smiled slightly more.

"12" she stated.

"I'm 15, three years older. I was three and a half when our parents died, you were only six months old" he stated and Christina blinked before tears came to her eyes.

"Your siblings" destiny said, but Brad blinked when Christina hugged him. He smiled softly before hugging back, stardust standing beside stardust watching.

"It's sweet" shimmer said.

"Good. He can help me protect Christina" stardust said jokingly, making the two laugh.

"Stardust, shimmer" silverstrike said as she and Starstrike walked over.

"Mother, father" stardust greeted. Silverstrike put a wing around them both and stardust smiled.

"Our family is back together" Starstrike said softly.

"Mother, father....... Our riders must return home to earth soon...... And I would like to return with them. I cannot part with Christina, but I can promise we'll return often" stardust said honestly, looking as Christina and Brad shared stories, destiny being accepted in like a sister.

"I will allow it, you should be close with the one you care for" silverstrike nuzzled her son and he nuzzled her back. "But if you don't visit, I will hunt you down and drag you both here"

"Yes mother" he chuckled and looked at Starstrike as he looked as Christina welcomed the other riders into the talk.

"You may, but I expect you to behave for Christina. She is a fine young warrior and has to look out for you" he said and stardust's jaw dropped while shimmer and silverstrike laughed at his shock.

"L-look out for me!? Excuse me!?" Stardust sputtered and his father let out a rich laugh.

"That was awesome, spitfire, I'm proud to call you my brother" flameburst stated as he and spitfire spoke.

"Yeah, well my wing is still sore, I'm gonna go to sleep when Jordan and I get back to earth, have a good few days of pure relaxation and rest" spitfire yawned.

"But I thought you were staying here!" Flameburst stated.

"No, my place is with Jordan. He may be annoying and trouble, but he's family too and my bonded. I'll come visit you, the same I can't say for flint" spitfire said.

"And why is that?" Flint asked as he stalked over to the smaller males.

"You don't seem thrilled having a second son that's bonded to a human" spitfire said dryly.

"While it is not something I wish for flameburst..... Jordan makes you who you are, spitfire, and I am proud to call you my son. Those riders are the best thing to happen to Draconus" flint said and spitfire smirked seeing Jordan trip and face plant into mud.

"Yes they are"

"Oh Lilly, my sweet granddaughter, I can't wait to show you our home" Rosita stated as she put a wing around Lilly, who cringed.

"Grandmother, I..... I'm not returning to the nature tribe with you" Lilly said and slipped past lotus, her elder brother.

"Why!?" Lotus asked.

"I have to go home, to earth, with Jade...... I'll still come stay with you at times and visit often with her, but my place is on earth with Jade. Besides she has a wonderful garden I love to stay in" Lilly giggled, lotus whining and protesting, but stopped when Rosita put a wing around Lilly.

"Then you may, but I want you to visit when you can and stay safe" Rosita stated.

"Of course grandmother"

"My beautiful boy, I'm so happy we got to see each other" rainy said as she stood by whirlpool, looking over everyone.

"Yes, me too mom" whirlpool said softly and looked as Nathan and Brad got arm wrestling, Brad winning with ease.

"Your going back to earth, aren't you?" She asked and he smiled.

"Nate needs me, and I need him" whirlpool before before nuzzling his mother. "But I'll come visit you"

"You better"

"Your such a brave little girl, I love you so much" spirit said and storm giggled.

"Your the best big sister spirit, I'll visit you every time I can, but....." Storm looked Down.

"Your going to earth, be careful brat" Jay muttered.

"Ok big cousin..... I'll miss you both" storm said and nuzzled her sister, but didn't nuzzle Jay. He sighed before putting a wing around her.

"Your not bad, brat" he stated and she smiled, giving him a nuzzle before running to Lilly.

"Sky, mom and dad would be proud of you, I'm happy your my little brother" zahira said as she and sky walked away from getting medical treatment.

"I know, thanks zahira...... But you know I have to go back to earth, right?" He asked softly and she sighed.

"I had a feeling you'd say that" she stated and he nuzzled her gently.

"I'll visit, but I should go, take care of yourself" sky said and flew over to Leo.

The riders mounted their dragons, moving away from everyone. Brad rode stardust behind Christina and destiny was on whirlpool behind Nathan.

"Good bye, can't wait to see you again!"

"Take care everybody!"

"We'll be back!"

"Goodbye!"

"Best wishes!"

The same light appeared, the one that carried the riders to Draconus. The dragons were lifted before they flew up, going through a portal.

And things went dark again.
