The Caravan of Hope

Chapter 37: Aerovislugia

Remember I talked about the one shot? It's up. Find it on my profile.

The picture is of Aerovislugia. It's not too accurate. Yes, I based him off Acnologia from Fairy Tail.

----------------

They all didn't know what to do: whether to be angry or scared.

Zaecondis clapped his hands. Did you seriously think that I was gone? You should've asked Daiko if I was really gone.

They looked at Daiko. She was on her knees, hands over mouth, crying. "It can't be... It's really going happen?"

Zaecondis looked confused. I don't know what you're talking about, but I'll just answer yes for now.

Daiko's eyes widened as Zaecondis lifted his arm, reaching out toward her.

But I do want to punish you for messing up my plans. Goodbye, Daiko Anrika.

She screamed. No, no esto. No otra vez! Yo quiero... yo quiero a ir... con Alex.

Alex's eyes widened. He understood everything she said.

Zaecondis had white light coming out his hand. Without thinking, Alex ran in front of Daiko, protecting her just as the white light hit him.

He knew that he was still alive. But he felt something changing inside of him. And Daiko was still scared.

He smiled at her. "It's all right Daiko. I'm still alive."

She shook her head, trembling. "That's not it..."

She touched Alex's forehead, and he saw a flashback.

----------------

He was standing facing Daiko, who shouted with a cheer, "Chapter thirty-seven!"

As if in a dream, he was able to move over to her and read over her shoulder.

And his jaw dropped.

Since it was in pictures, he was able to see his father slam him with a white light.

The next panel, he was shifting, and he shifted into a-

The younger Daiko screamed.

- black dragon, with white stripes on its wings. The dragon went crazy, and then left.

----------------

Then he came back. Daiko was crying. He was sad, but he kissed her forehead and said, "Don't worry Daiko. I'll break out of this one day; it won't be like the original."

Then he morphed into a dragon. The dragon went wild, smashing everything in sight.

Daiko fell to her knees. "Aerovislugia." She trembled and looked at Zaecondis. "THAT'S WHAT YOU CALLED HIM!"

Zaecondis trembled. This wasn't supposed to happen!

Aerovislugia flew away. That's when Daiko sang for a knife and went in a rage, trying to kill Zaecondis with it.

He just snapped his fingers, and she blacked out.

----------------

After a few hours, she regained conscious, only to find Zaecondis gone.

She couldn't believe herself. The one thing that she didn't want, and it still happened. She took her knife and tried to stick it in herself.

"Daiko!" Jarred grabbed the knife before she could stick it in herself. She cried into his chest.

Bella came over and hugged Daiko. Everyone else did too.  Bella smiled. "Alex is our friend too; we all miss him. Don't worry, we'll get him back."

Daiko smiled. "Of course. One way to break a curse is to truly kill the person who put it." She put on a scary face. "And there's no one Zaecondis is getting out of this."

For those of you who like Alex, sorry, I've planned this since the beginning. We won't see him until I believe chapter 47. Bye, don't hate me!
