Ice Dragon

Snowflake

I whimpered as Yoshiro was gone, I didn't want him to go. Maybe we could have gone together, we were a team, and he left. Something never seen before, a dragon teamed up with a mighty knight. I guess maybe we didn't need each other anymore. Or he was sick of the whole running away situation. But we're so close to getting away, being free, cold but free. I'd be be happy, but I doubt he would, humans aren't very good with the cold.

"What a waste of time. We should have left him before." Maximus complained typing on the computer with fast pace. I growled at him, he still would have been saved either way. But even I wonder it too it seems as time slowly goes by without him.

He's better out there then with his father locked away....... No one wants to be caged. That's why I must leave, even without Yoshiro....

I didn't know how to act about Yoshiro, I never really had such a sitaution happen before, but Maximus made me lay down and calm myself. But it wasn't really helping me at all. I was laying in a big beanbag chair, not even reading a book. Just thinking over my thoughts and actions. So much has happened so far.

Maxwell, seemed like my only friend in the world and helped me through my problems. He accepted my dragon side before anyone else, even Uncle too. He was so happy to just be my support. He patted my back, he made me feel better when I fell ill, and helped me with my dragon side.

I guess you can't trust just anyone.....

"Time to go girl, our ride is coming for us." Maximus said getting up pulling out his flashdrive.

When we went out to get out of there, snow was already falling fast from the sky. I smiled a bit. The cold comforted me as we dashed through the city, we had to be quick and careful. The guards of Dr. Silver could be anywhere at this point in time, and even look like normal people to keep the citizens from panicking. We couldn't let them see us or they could try and stop us from leaving. Simple really.

"Stay close Angel." Maximus whispered as we ran through the alleyways and back parts of the city. I held his hand walking by his side watching for suspisious looking people. However it's the city, lots of people look weird and suspisious.

We continued till we got to the hospital, I wish he told me we were coming here. I haven't even walked around this area, even when flying. I just get that terrible feeling of when he passed, so cold that it hurts. It was the time I felt the deep pain of frostbite in my flaming heart.

I couldn't stopped shaking, Maximus tried to drag me in the building that was closed off for construction but I couldn't do it. I would only feel that sad feeling of leaving him behind for myself. I just couldn't leave my Grandpa, he means the world to me. I needed him, I still need to learn more about myself...... And he's gone.

That place was he's last hope and it failed, I lost him, I didn't even say goodbye. He only slipped through my fingers, as if he never existed.

Just like Yoshiro, like Maxwell, Uncle, Aunt Tammy, and so far everyone. I lost everyone one by one after Grandpa...... That place will only make me feel that pain, to feel alone.

.............All alone

Maximus is beside me but he only seems to care about my dragon part to research on me. There may be some love there but I more then that. I need the deep caring and support. He probably feels he needs to, Uncle was also sort of forced to watch me for Grandpa's sake. We get right at the door of the hospital, it had been out of service since I crashed out the third to top floor. So there was yellow tape to stop people from just walking in when it was under construction.

"Come on Angel. Our ride will meet us on the roof.......Angel?" Maximus said looking at my frozen expression. I was right at the door, but I couldn't go in. I was scared of what I may feel once I finally left. Would I really be happy? "Come on Angel!" Maximus shouted through my daze, I blinked and backed away.

"I see them, all everyone to the hospital at Wellington ave!" A guard shouted and comes for us. I pushed Maximus in the building and climb up the side of the building hitting the walls to make it block the entrance. The building sign stopped the first guard from entering, but he pulled out his gun to get me down. I continued up the wall quickly dodging the gun fire. I could hear more of the guards coming with the sounds of cars screeching down the streets.

My spine shivered feeling Dr. Silver near by and sure enough he was there. "Keep firing, I don't care how far it takes to stop it!" Dr. Silver shouted. I could see some of the guards climbing the walls to get inside through the windows. Maximus hopefully is taking the stairs. My arm gets hit slightly by the gun fire, specailly made weaponary this time. I whimper climbing into a window.

I don't remember much of what happened when I was in the hospital. I felt Grandpa's aura around the building and it felt sad. I was dazed running up the stairs. Not even seeing Maximus.

The helicopter came for us though, then the guards were attacked by people. They were working together too to stop them.

But I blacked out at that moment when I got to the roof. Falling into a deep slumber, the last thing I saw was the most caring eyes ever.......

"My little darling, please open your eyes." A soft voice whispered. It was still dark but soon I was back in that water, only it was so gloomy and warm. But ice had formed in the liquid becoming the figure of a dragon.... So beautiful and graceful. "It's alright my dear. It's time for you to become the rare snowflake you were born to be."

"Who are you?" I whimpered. She nuzzled me and comforted me.

"I'm your mother, your guardin did a lovely job raising you. I'm sure you'll grow up to be what I hope you'd be." She said. Mother? I have no mother.... Just Grandpa. "Yes, indeed hard to believe. I have not been their for your birth. But I made a choice, to protect the future of your life and the rest of our race. You are the choosen one. My sweet heaven from above." She said.

"Choosen one?" I questioned. I thought I was given up. But she nodded and circled around me, letting me feel that icy cold form she was in. It was extrememly comforting like the woman in my dreams, but I this is a dream too.

"Yes, but only you can decide what to do with it. You make me proud just by being mine. Now go out there and make it snow." She said slowly disappearing in the water. But what is my fate, Mother! Wait, don't GOOOO!

Water was pushed hard around me, blinding me with the new found light from the outside as then-

I sit up fast, in a dark room in a bed somewhere. Ice all on the wall and freezing, it felt great. I peeked my head out the room seeing a dark hall and the room at the end had light with people laughing. I look back at my room, it looked very comfortable, not even neat. Almost shaggy and old, but the voice caught my attention. So familiar and my instincts weren't going crazy. Just what happened? Where am I?

I silently walk down the dim hallway, so cold to the point you could see your own breath. I peek into the room seeing people around the fireplace. Maximus was laughing sipping a hot beverage to keep him warm in his blanket. I whimper out to him so confused.

"Ah finally you woke up. You created quite a mess but it saved us." Maximus said walking to me, getting the attention of the rest of the group. "How are you feeling?"

I scratched my head confused. When I got my paper and pencil I was able to explain that I didn't remember anything when I got in the hospital. "Hmmm, that's weird. But the only way I can tell you is to show you." He replied.

He took to a covered window and opened it showing a huge winter wonderland in the city. It was snowing very hard and ice covered the streets along with the thick layers of snow. "Congrats Angel, you created an ice land in New York." Maximus said.

I squealed surprised. It was dark and soon the sun would be up. We needed to get out of here before I created a bigger mess. "Oh by the way, that lab rat is outside. Thank him because we could have been in big trouble." He said. Lab rat, but the only person I know he calls that is-

"You could stop calling me Lab rat." Someone said. I didn't even think as I turned tackling the person happily.

"Y-y-Yoshiro!!!" I shouted happily. A snowflake falls into my nose, a very bright flaming blue crystal flake.
