The Adventures of Royce!

Chapter 35: Looking For Clues...

The Next Day...

Tiffany wakes up first (even her dad) before the others, then gets up and close and personal to the teams' ears and yells and screams as loud as possible, earning irritated looks from her teammates (including her dad).

Tiffany: "A~hem! *Tiffany clears her throat* Now that EVERYONE, and I AM sorry dad, but WE need to start looking for Clues." Tiffany informs her team as they then redirect their attention towards her.

Royce: "Excuse me Young Lady, err~ Tiffany, but what 'Clues' are we suppose to be looking for? Especially in this world, err~ continent?" Royce questioned his adopted daughter.

Tiffany: "We're looking for clues for another Elder Dragon, something similar to..." Tiffany looks through her Hunter Hand-book, and finds the Elder Dragon's name, "Kushala Daora. Other than that, reports are sketchy, AaaaND there's the mentioning of 'Singing'." Tiffany explained towards her father.

Royce: "Singing? A Singing Kushala Daora? Nah... something about this... sounds... familiar... hmmm..." Royce began to enter a state of deep thought. "Singing... singing...", only then for Royces' deep train of thought to be interrupted due to the fact that the team "freaked out" at the sight of an unknown creature but was VERY familiar to Royce. As the team freaked out , they took drastic measures and attempted to subdue the "Monster". Only then for Royce to put himself between his team and the supposed "Monster".

Royce: "STOOOOPPP!!! This isn't a monster," Royce yelled while standing in between the entity and his team, "this here is a Glaceon; capable of controlling (the) Ice Element! Intimidating as she is; she is quite friendly despite, uhmm... what's the word? Defensive, was it? No, PROTECTIVE, it was. She's VERY protective over whomever she chooses..." Royce explains towards his kids, only for Tiffany to get the wrong idea.

Tiffany: "Liiiiikkee... a mate?" Royces' eyes widen in disturbance and partial disgust. Krystal only smirked, then Tiffany realized that that wasn't what she meant. "Dad, I meant like, she~ she has like a sorta crush on you!"

Royce: "Well... I'll be honest here... Uhmm... kinda like that, but NOT exactly like that. It's... hard and complicated to explain. I'll tell you that."

This in turn caught the attention of Flamer and Flambe resulting in Royce's current predicament.

Royce: "Fine, Tiffany, you win. A few years back, just when I first 'arrived' into the Dragon Realms, like WAAAAYYY before you three were a thought. I was sent on some sort of~ I think it was a suicide mission, *Royce then shakes the thought out of his head* eventually being held hostage by small creatures similar to Cynthia. Ya know, the one that couldn't come with us? Well, you see... this Glaceon here, *Royce picks up Krystal* Krystal and her Vaporeon sister were the only ones that DIDN'T want me dead, or didn't trust me. Krystal's trust was... how do I... oh yeah! She... well... her sister told me that she developed a crush on me. And the rest is his history..." Royce explained to his kids as their jaws were hanging in shock 'n' awe, surprised to hear about all the trouble he went through when he was younger. "Now, enough about me and Krystal here. Krystal, do you know anything about Singing Monsters? Or Monsters that sing?" Royce asks Krystal as he then puts her down and gently rubs her head. "Can you also... like guided us around this unknown territory? Please?" As Royce asked the Glaceon, she nodded in approval. Soon enough, the team was following Krystal, then after a while after following Krystal, the team hit a snag and were forced to halt their advance due to encountering a wild, hostile beast (Monster). When Tiffany couldn't find a way around the Monster, she deemed Last Resort necessary: Kill or Capture said Monster. What the team knew, but Royce didn't was that they needed to establish an area for the new base.
