39 Mother of the Eon

FUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!! I'd be shitting my pants if I had any on!!

.

A flippin dragon. I robbed a MOTHER FLIPPIN DRAGON!! My "run for my puny life" reflex is reacting like never before. I stole from a Dragon while I'm mostly blind, am completely naked, AND have a level 1 class. I blame Hades. No clue why or how but I blame him

.

[Hades... you've killed me. I'll haunt your dreams if I dont make it out of this alive.]

.

Hades: [How is this MY fault?! You asked my Silver Bone where the closest mountain was. I blame YOU!!]

.

[You boneless bimbo!! I'm going to die a virgin AGAIN and it's all your fault!!]

.

Hades: [DID YOU CALL ME BONELESS!? ILL KILL YOU MYSELF!! IM GOING TO STICK MY BONEY FINGERS SO FAR UP YOUR NOSE... ILL TICKLE YOUR SIGHTLESS EYES!!]

.

Gaia: [User, Hades... I am detecting 2 life signs in proximity of the dragon.]

.

Slate and Hades: [...]

.

I officially peed a little. All I can hear in my head is the Oxiclean guy saying "But wait... theres MORE!!"

.

[Please tell me the other life sigh is equal to the dragon and seems to be fighting it...]

.

Gaia: [Unlikely User. The second life sign seems to be far weaker and is getting weaker by the second. The weakening life sign seems to be an newly born offspring of the larger life sign.]

.

I froze in my quivering steps. I hurt a baby? A baby might die... because of me?

.

I'm not sure what happened to my survival instincts but I took off like a bat out of hell... straight to the dragon.

.

[HADES, DO YOU SPEAK DRAGON? DO DRAGONS SPEAK? HOW CAN WE SAVE THE BABY!?]

.

Hades: [I speak enough to get by, yes they talk... no clue. Why are you running to the dragon?]

.

[TO SAVE THE BABY! GAIA, SCAN THE BABY AND TRY TO FIND OUT WHATS WRONG. I NEED SOLUTIONS ON HOW TO SAVE IT!!]

.

Gaia: [Understood User.]

.

I ran right up to the dragon and started stomping on the floor and clapping. I tried to get its attention anyway I could.

.

[Hades, come out and call the dragon. Ask it what the baby needs to live. Gaia, hows the scan looking?]

.

I felt Hades materialize and started roaring. The Skeleton I was seeing tilted a little and a roar that made Hades's earlier roars sound like a fart in comparison boomed.

.

Gaia: [The smaller life sign seems to be starving. Its magic is slipping away. The container has a small crack on it.]

.

Hades was making noises and the dragon responded by... laughing? Your baby is dying and your laughing?

.

Hades: This Dragon... She said that her egg is cracked due to the dragon inside trying to be born but not breaking out completely so its trapped. She has been watching over it for a month but it hasnt broken out by itself. She wont help it escape its egg. Its Dragon law that a Newborn doesnt get help from its parents when its hatching. Shes laughing at the thought that you could have hurt her egg.

.

I'm once again frozen. She is letting her egg die infront of her? She could have helped it at anytime in the past month but chose not to and even now that its starving... she still refuses to help it!?

.

Wait... she said SHE couldn't help it... so can I?

.

[Can I help the baby? Ask her Hades.]

.

Before he could ask her, the dragon exhaled and sent me flying back.

.

Dragon: You will do no such thing. This hatching will either escape its egg alone or not at all. I have yet to repay you for stealing from me but I cared little for the meager amount you took. Once this failed hatching has perished, you will follow it.

.

Did the dragon just speak English?... How did it know what I was typing with my brain? but... most importantly...

.

[YOU FUCKING GECKO!! THE BABY IS DYING AND YOUR PISSED ABOUT ME TRYING TO SAVE IT???

.

The sky started to rumble and the ground was rippling with me in the center.

.

SO WHAT IF I SAVE IT? IT WILL DIE WITHOUT HELP!! IF YOU WILL KILL ME AFTER ITS DEAD, THEN ILL MAKE SURE IT LIVES A LONG LIFE!!]

.

The scaley "Mother of the Eon" started laughing again

.

Dragon: You are an odd creature. You look mostly human but your lineage commands the sky and earth. What manner of beast are you? Also... what's a Geko?

.

[THATS NOT IMPORTANT, THE BABY IS!!]

.

Dragon: No it isnt. For miles around me are the bones of every creature that has come within my sight in the past 3000 years. I am an Elder Mithril Dragon. My tail has slain more monsters then seconds you have lived. This is my last egg I will ever lay and the father was a wolf that had the gall to try to claim me as his mate. I only allowed it to mate with me out of bordum. I didnt expect this egg to survive this long but I guess my bloodline was strong enough to bring it this far. My life is at its end anyway. Once this egg dies, I'll kill you and follow soon after.

.

I have no words. She didnt care about the egg from the start...

.

[I would like to make a deal with you. I'll tell you what type of beast I am if you let me save the egg. If I cant save the egg... I'll return your treasure with intrest. If I CAN save the egg, you give me your treasure and I'll raise the baby. A dead Dragon has no need for treasure but yours will stay with your offspring rather then going to the monsters that will feast on your corpse. Either way, you get to know what I am and mostlikely the egg and I die. Deal?]

.

The dragon chuckled before she roared in laughter.

.

Dragon: You cant lay a single finger on my egg. Anything else is fine. If you save it, I will let my life expire without ending yours. Your hunger for my riches reminds me of my youth.

.

Gaia... come out and scan the egg as best you can. No touching it though.

.

Gaia: [No need User. The egg needs energy and some way to heal the damage of a month of starvation.]

.

[Can blood help it? Mine has Regen passively running through it.]

.

Gaia: [Unknown. More data required]

.

[Dragon, I am a Bonedust Indra. First and Only of my kind. A mutation of a Snake, Weisel, and Skeleton hybrid from a world far from here. I will now save the child within the egg.]

.

Dragon: Indra's dont exist...

.

I open my Materium Status to show the dragon. After a few minutes, she unveiled her egg and placed it infront of me.

.

Dragon: Ok Indra. Show me how you will save a doomed hatchling that is a mixed breed which has failed at escaping its shell for a month.

.

I walk up to the egg and float my Orb to my hand. A tiny grain of shining sand comes out of the orb and lands on the shell.

.

The egg shell instantly vanished and revealed the little one inside for the first time. I feel the baby with my TK and I'm confused for a few seconds. It's a puppy... with bone wings? The hell?

.

[Is it just me or did a puppy with wings just come out of a dragon egg?]

.

Dragon: WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY EGG?!

.

[Your child is out of its egg without me touching it. I used a grain of Storinum to "Store" the egg shell but not your child.]

.

I return the egg to the dragon without "Laying a single finger on it".

.

[Why are you so worried about the egg when the baby is safe?]

.

Dragon: Our eggs are the containers of our treasure. You just returned to my my treasure after I gave it to you. Leave with that failure and be gone.

.

I dont need to be told twice. I scoop up the puppy and start walking away.

.

[Gaia, please leave a bug on the larger life sign so that we can loot it when it expires.]

.

Gaia: Understood user.

.

As I walk away with her baby... all she seems to care about is the egg. Stupid dragon. I'll make sure this puppy outshines you in every way.
