I start walking into a clearing in the forest. Everyone else is asleep as far as I know. As for me, it's just one of those sleepless nights. No biggy.
When I reach the clearing, I see Zeno laying on the grass. My gaze hardens as I quietly walk up to him.
"Zeno." I say, standing at Zeno's head. Zeno jumps slightly then smiles.
"Sup! You have a knack for sneaking up on Zeno!" Zeno smiles. "Yeah, okay." I say, crossing my arms. "Hm? Is something bothering you?" Zeno asks. "Yeah, you could say that." I answer. "Talk to Zeno! Zeno can help!" Zeno smiles. I resist the urge to smile back. 'This guy is way too happy to be a spy.' I think. "Okay, I'll just come right out with it. Have you been following us long before we found you." I ask. Zeno gives me a curious look. "Why would the Miss think that?" Zeno asks. "You called Yoon by his name before we even introduced ourselves. Maybe you overheard it while hiding behind the tree. Or maybe you heard it long before that." I explain, starring at Zeno. Zeno visibly tenses and a somewhat serious gaze takes over his eyes. "Also, the other dragons are able to sense a dragon from miles away without even trying. So, I doubt that you didn't sense them until you were right in front. Even if you are as laid back as you claim." I say. "So, Miss is asking if Zeno's a spy of some sorts?" Zeno asks.
"Of course Zeno's not! The Yellow Dragon is sworn to protect their master! Zeno couldn't do anything to harm the little miss even if he wanted to!" Zeno says, answering his question. "Well, the Yellow Dragon is also said to have a strong body. But you got knocked out by a single punch. Also, who's to say you won't attack the other dragons or Hak?" I say. "Something's wrong with that man's punches!" Zeno retorts. "Then I guess a strike from my morning star won't hurt you? I'm positive Hak's punches are much worse." I ask with a small grin, grabbing my morning star off my waist. "Who knows? You could end up killing me. What will the others think of that?" Zeno asks. He's serious now.
I swiftly slam my morning star down to Zeno's face. But, only so it will graze him. Zeno's head instinctively moves away but I still manage to scratch him. Surprise plasters Zeno's face from the speed of my strike. I watch as the scar on his face starts healing. It takes me a few minutes to process what just happened until I realize something. "You're immortal." I mumble.
'A body that heals itself. If he can't be injured he can't die necessarily. He may be immune to sickness too. A body immune to disease and injuries makes it nearly impossible to die. Only other option would be when the next Yellow Dragon is born and he looses his powers. Unless...'
"Sure am! Zeno's the first generation of dragons!" Zeno smiles, sitting up and giving me a thumbs up.
'That was thousands of years ago though. How much has he been through? He looks like a kid but he's older then all of us! How many people has he watched die. Unable to join them later on must be torture.'
I suddenly fall onto my knees and wrap Zeno in a hug. "I'm sorry for doubting you. And I know what you've went through must be hard. I'll keep this a secret if you'd like." I say, almost immediately understanding the situation he's in. I hear Zeno gasp at my sudden change in attitude and I release him. "Let's start over. Hi, my names Yuri. I have no memory of my past and am helping Yona on her quest." I smile. Zeno takes a minute to regain his composure before smiling. "Hiya! I'm Zeno! The Yellow Dragon Warrior." Zeno smiles.
'Alright fine. Zeno passes the test.'
*Time Skip*
"Ik-Soo?" I ask Yoon.
"Yeah, he's a clumsy Priest. He took me in a while back. He's sorta why we started this journey of finding the overgrown lizards." Yoon briefly explains.
