"O...k..." Brad handed her a cup of coffee and she took a sip before she continued talking "Now you are form a line of dragon empresses and now you got a color of daggers which is the rarest ever gotten, the emerald coloured..."
"These..?" I brought them out of my bag
"Yes exactly, now there is a war in the underworld and your mom was the one who was keeping it at bay, now she disappeared and the dragon chose you, so you'll have to train and there's gonna be a lot of people coming after you, cause if you die, any kingdom who's got your head will be the supreme kingdom."
"Wait...you've known me for my whole life and you are just telling me this now..?"
"Well I didn't want it to be like this...but...I will die soon."
"What..." Brad and I said at the same time
"Oh I have been using most of my life force to protect you all your life and now if I can't get back to my kingdom and sleep in the ruler's chamber and replenish my life force, I'll die."
"Ok...now April you will come with me."
"To where..."
"We have to train you, so we can raid that palace and take it over."
"Cool...cool."
"Oh...and don't hold back..." His eyes changed colour and his fangs started coming out "cause I won't."
"Got it."
. . .
He took me to her basement, then I realized something
"You know your way around here."
"Oh..." he turned his head without stopping "we're engaged"
"WHAT..? She has a boyfriend."
"How do you think she made it this far without dying."
"I don't know." Now that I thing about it how did she survive without blood
"You can call them friends with benefits..."
"She drinks his blood..?"
"No, vampires from the underworld don't rely on blood, they rely on life force, which they get from the elemental stones of their kingdoms, and since she hasn't slept in her kingdom for a long time her time alive is reducing..."
"So you are telling me that she sleeps on stones."
"No, there is an hierarchy in every kingdom, the love between her and me keeps our kingdoms together..." He smiles "...so in every vampire kingdom the stone is at the center of each clan and at the center of each clan is the clan chief. So the royal family lives the longest...about 500-1100 years, next is the soldiers about 300-900 years, the servants live about 200-500 years, the normal peasant lives about 400-1000 years..."
"So..." I looked at him with a 'this guy is a geek look' "how does that affect me..?"
"Sorry I got caught up, what I am trying to say is that...each family has a Crystal and it is in the head's home as long as you are not disowned you will live until your life expires, and you will change crystal heads when you have married, either you become a head or you will be headed by another, and the reset time is two weeks."
"Ok so...how is she still alive." I was confused
"There was the boy comes in, he shares some of his life force with her..."
"Oh, how did she do it since I was I kid."
"...and in return she gives him immortality." He finished
"O...k,so why does she need the crystal."
'she changed the time to two decades, and since she has been protecting you, her time has been reduced to 18 years."
"And I'm 17."
"Now you're getting it."
"Where are we going."
"To the training ground." He opened the door and there was a whole arena,
"Wow..!"
"Let's begin."
. . .
He took off his shirt and his hair started to grow at a ridiculous rate,
"Now, come at m..."
"Lightning dragon form three; Thunder step."
I flew at him with thunderous speed and managed to slice his belly
"Hold up..." He grabbed my ankle mid flight
"Where are you running to..?"
"Lightning dragon form ten; thunder strength." I kicked him with all the strength I had and I managed to send him flying, but his hand was still holding on to my ankle
"Get...off." I used my dagger to cut it off
"Good grief." Brad said while getting up, and he had two hands
"What..?" I pointed at him
"One thing for you to remember..." He was suddenly beside me and he held my face "the stronger the creature, the faster their regeneration." He slammed me into the floor, there was blood all over.
"Lightening dragon form eleven; electrostatic healing."
"Ouch." He released my face immediately, then he opened his eyes wide "how did you hea..."
"Lightning dragon form three; thunder step."
"Where did you go little girl."
"Lightning dragon form five;"
"There you are." He turned, he was about to punch me
"Shockwave slash." I slashed him across his chest with my blades.
"That can't finish me." He said smugly
"I'm not done, form thirteen; thunder mark." His chest started to glow
"What are you doing to me, I can't heal." He jumped towards me but I ran away
"Form three; thunder step."
"Oh f-" a huge amount of lightening hit him and he just stood there paralyzed I thought I killed him
"Are you o...k" I moved closer
"Tell may...I...love...her." then I saw his hand was regenerating
"You can't trick me, Lightening dragon form twelve; thunderstorm Genesis."
"Well it was worth a try." The whole room became dark, there was a cloud above us, lightening moved across it and that's when I decided that I should leave
"Bye."
"Don't you dare Lea..."
"Form three."
