Dragon Girl

Part 31- All Is Well That Ends Well (End)

The feds found allthe bombs, all the paper work, evidence that Simenski deliberatelychose the school and Toliver as his way of getting his revenge on therich.

Toliver wasexonerated of all charges, as it was "proven" by Frost'spsychiatrists that Simenski had him enthralled. The award ceremonywent off without so much as a sniffle and no one the wiser, exceptMiss Girardeau.

At home again,there was no big fanfare for Janey having helped to save the lives ofmany important people, but she didn't care. Her mother, father,Katey, Nancy and Brenda made a big enough fuss to make her happy. Afew nights after she got home, on the edge of sleep, Katey asked"What color is Zelistuck, Janey?"

"She'sturquoise, and looks like she's made of the stones, why do youask?"

"A few nightsbefore you got home, I had a dream about a dragon showing up on thebed post. But it was a sort of ordinary lizard green."

"What did thisdragon say to you?" Janey asked, fully awake again.

"That was sortof odd ... it said "Finally I've found you again, now I'llnever let you out of my sight." Then I asked it if you werealright, because I thought it might be Zel. It said you were fine andyou'd be home soon."

Janey called forZelistuck. "IsKatey an incarnate dragon? Is that her dragon guide?"

"Yes and yes.This, also, was something you needed to do for which you would nothave been ready without me."

"Then I'malso what ... the dragon finder?"

"You could callit that, yes."

"How many am Isupposed to find?"

"There are farmore incarnate dragons than you can imagine and many of them fellinto situations like Katey's. There is a war in the realms, Janey,and you need to find as many of these damaged dragons as possible andget them ready for a huge event that looms on Earth's horizon. Itwill take all the dragons to prevent a tragedy."

"How big atragedy are we talking here?" Janeyasked, a little frightened.

"Planetkiller."

Janey sat uprightin bed, disturbing Katey.

"What'swrong?" Katey asked sleepily.

"Nothing ... baddream, go back to sleep."

"Is this amaterial event or a psychic downdraft?"She asked Zelistuck.

"I don't knowif it will have a physical manifestation or not. Likely it will, butit is definitely a psychic downdraft."

"I have to tellMagnus. He's the one with the resources to find them."

"I concur. Now,let me sing you to sleep to quiet your spirit."

"Yeah, goodluck with that." Janeyanswered snidely and lay back down.

Zelistuck had herasleep in a few minutes.

The news fromZelistuck was conveyed the next day and then Janey went back into hernormal routine. She had about six psychic students at school now andthe school gave her an after hours classroom, monitored by several ofthe teachers.

She was home withher family and friends for several months when Magnus Frost showed upon their doorstep suddenly.

"Is there aproblem, Magnus?" Richard asked, puzzled because the billionaireseldom showed up with a smile.

"Just theopposite of a problem, Richard. Please call your family together."Frost smiled and took off his coat and invited himself to sit on thesofa.
