5 This Is What You Really Are

"Shit she saw me I have to get out of here!" A cold sweat ran down the welps back as he prepared to flee from this clearing and this insanely powerful but strangely beautiful creature ,he had been spying on the entire afternoon until she noticed him.

"I can't move where did these vines come from shit! I'm done for now ether she will just kill me, or she could be like some of those other creatures slowly tormenting me there's no other reason she'd go after me like this." Countless different possibilities ran through the welps head but he could only imagine these two outcomes likely happening to him.

For the first time true fear took ahold of the welp. Other times like when he was paralyzed he held a vague idea he would not be hurt and that the kill he had stollen from him would satisfy his attacker but now he was facing the unknown and this terrified him. "If she means to do any harm to me I'm done for!" Cold sweat was coming off of the welp as he desperately clawed at the vines in a futile attempt to free himself.

Meanwhile Rena was standing there sighing to herself as the welp completely ignored her. "Hmm from the looks of it this little one is most likely alone if his mother were with him she'd come after me in a rage." Remembering a past incident similar to this she felt a slight headache, because their was nothing scarier than a several tone mother capable of creating sonic booms to chase after you and beat you for bothering their precise children. "He dose look good though, to bad he was born a mixed breed or he would have a wonderful life."

"Little one stop struggling and listen to me." Rena said, in a genteel voice like one would hear from their mother trying to lovingly explain to their child. " You have most likely been alone all your life do you even know what you are? How truly rare it is that you have survived this long, that you are most likely the only one of your kind to have escaped their eye's unnoticed. But in the end you have no parents to help guide you through life's many hurdles and wonders. So please stop struggling and let me help you little one there are many dangers in these lands and I can help protect you from them if you stick with me."

She spoke to the welp in draconic a language that all dragons were born knowing her soothing voice helping to calm down the welp, he was willing to listen to her finally believing she would not harm him. " What do you mean I'm most likely the only one of my kind, and who are these people who are supposedly looking for me?" His voice was still soft and squeaky on account of the welp having never speaking to other creatures his entire life, and also the fact that he was still only a child.

"Child your existence is spectacular, unlike all other's of your kind you are most likely the only mixed true dragon that has not been hunted and executed. The reason you may be thinking, well that quite simple the pride of true dragons would not allow for a creature to surpass the perfection they see in themselves. The very though of becoming inferior and obsolete riles their very cores, but deeper down their afraid of mixed breeds between the different types of true dragons becoming to strong for when that day come they will be complete dominated and shown how complete futile it is to resist agents what they can only call an abomination."

"I hade friends you know, they were dragons just like you they were the ones that taught me Draconic but they were killed just for loving each other so trust me the last thing i will do is hurt you little one." Rena's eye's were filled with grief as she spoke looking at the welp as if she saw her dead friends within him. Tear's filled her eyes as she muttered " You know i wouldn't mind taking you in as a child if you were willing to accept me as you new mother. I would protect you from the dangers of this world and help you have a happy life." she then slowly released the vines holding the welp as he came closer toward her.

"So little one do you have a name yet?" Rena asked trying to stay cheerful despite bringing up the long forgotten memories of her dead friends. The welp had calmed down at this point and was looking at her curiously from what he could tell she truly meant her no harm. "What is a name?" The welp had never interacted with another intelligent being before therefor it had never had to address its self to any one else. But know he felt an intense desire to have a name a strong and powerful one to reflect his might.

What the welp was experiencing right now was an inborn instinct to form a name. This is because once a dragon formed a name they would be empowered defining their true essence and being the source of their power. Most dragons ended up naming their young after an aspect of the elemental mana they controlled but it was lot unheard of for a dragon to be named after some thing else. Dragons where always proud of their names and could use them to imbue their power into objects and also give power to less powerful creatures.

Rena thought for a good bit before coming up with a name for the young welp a slight smile on her lips as she said. " How about Fearen because your scales make you look like a beautiful fiery and cold fairy." She was holding back a laugh because the real reason she chose this name was because he was so fearful when she found him.

"I like the sound of it." said Fearen not knowing about the true source of his new name. He also did not know what a fairy was but he assumed that it was a powerful and deadly creature that imbued fear into others. " So what was that singing that you where doing earlier and what was with that giant flower that came out afterword?"

"Oh that orchid is a sentry for the surrounding forest I needed to supply a large amount of manna for it to grow to maturity. It helps me survey the surrounding area when I'm not around and fend of any attackers, and to help plants grow faster I sing to empower my spells." She said with a small grin. "Now lets get going we are currently on the outskirts of the forest and its not to safe hear for us. I have a home deeper in well make it there easily before night fall." Rena piked up the Fearen and started to travel at high speed far faster than he had ever traveled by himself.
