When Damien woke up, he found himself in a very black environment. He tried to move himself around but he couldn't do anything.
'Ahh.. I'm probably in my mother's womb. ' Thought Damien, before he touched something hard. 'Wait, is the inside of a women's belly this hard? Also when did I start to have 4 arms and a tail? '
That's when Damien realised something. 4 arms, a tail and a hard wall surrounding him.He reincarnated as a bloody lizard didn't he?
He wanted to curse out the large fiery chicken but no sound came out. And that's when Damien started to feel the effects of not having oxygen.
As the slow and agonizing process of death by asphyxiation tried to settle in, Damien waved his four arms(Legs?) frantically to get out of this death egg. He hit the hard surface of the egg, and even though it was hard to do so, he kept on going.
Bit by bit, he chipped away at the exterior of the egg, before he saw a faint ray of light. Damien could finally breathe a little, so now even more motivated to survive, he increased his effort, to get out of the egg, focusing on the already cracked area to increase his chances of escape. And after a few more seconds of thrashing around, he finally escaped the death trap in the form of an egg.
--------
As soon as Damien got out of the egg, he started gasping for air as loudly as he could. He was so busy trying to inhale air that he didn't even pay attention to his surroundings or himself.
After a few more seconds of gasping he finally observed himself and his surroundings. He had pitch black scales that covered his entire body, four arms (or legs) and two bumps on his forehead. He also had a long neck that he could extend to look on his back. On his back were a pair of fairly large wings. He initially thought he was a dragon but quickly stopped that thought. There were too many variables for that conclusion,he may simply be a dragonoid. Around him were 3 eggs. All the same size, but with various different colours. One was blue, one was red,and one was gold. He turned to look at the egg he hatched from.
The egg he hatched from was pitch black in colour, reflecting almost zero light. It also had some red lines in it that passed through the egg like lava. Inside the egg there was also some kind of transparent fluid.
When Damien saw the fluid, his stomach growled in hunger. At Damien he tried to resist his hunger, as he thought that there was no way he could eat that thing, but he eventually he gave up, and consumed the whole egg, the shell included in a matter of seconds.
'Tastes like.... well an egg. ' Thought Damien after he finished consuming the egg, before turning his attention to the other un hatched eggs.
None of them hatched in the time he spent eating, but one of them the blue one was close to hatching as Damien saw small cracks appearing in the surface of the egg.
Damien also hadn't seen his 'Mother' Or 'Father' since he was reborn in this world.
Damien's train of thought was interrupted by a sharp voice that ringed in his mind.
"My dear child. " The voice sounded like a women's. It was old, and sounded full of wisdom. "If your hearing this message, than that means I'm dead, and your the first born. Dragon hunters, came for us so i had to hide all of you away. As the eldest of my children, you must be responsible for the growth of your siblings. Please, raise them well, and restore the glory of the dragon race. "
That confirmed his suspicion of him being a dragon. He jumped around happily at the news of him being a dragon, after all, dragons were superior to humans in most fantasy settings.
His dancing was stopped when he heard a crack.
He turned around and what greeted him was a small blue dragon slowly coming out of its egg. It had a singular horn on it's forehead as opposed to the two horns that Damien had, and it was covered in pristine blue scales. That's when Damien realised just how flipping big he was. The small dragon was barely half of the size of the egg but Damien here was almost as bigs as the egg.
Damien also instinctively knew it's gender. That small whelp was a male.
The Small dragon whom he'll be referring to simply as Blue immediately began to chow down on the transparent fluid, not caring about the surrounding area at all.
After eating up all the 'food' Blue started to look around his surroundings, before his eyes rested upon Damien. Blue stared at Damien in shock for a brief second before stumbling to his side.
Damien found the scene of the stumbling blue dragon to be quite cute. After a while and a lot of struggling the blue dragon reached towards Damien's side and just layed next to him.
Blue closed his eyes and yawned before sleeping.
Damien was pleasantly surprised. After seeing the behaviour of dragons in other fantasy novels, he was fully expecting Blue to attack him to show dominance. Damien shaked those thoughts away, as this was not fantasy, instead it was reality. Him being nearly twice of Blue's size probably helped with that. He also noticed more of the difference between Blue and him. While Damien's scales looked somewhat hard blue's scales looked soft, as if a stone knife could pierce it.
Damien intently watched the rest of the eggs. 10 minutes went away, and there was no movement. Blue had already woken up from his nap and was lying on his belly and his tongue out trying to get Damien to play with him. Apparently Dragons, don't need to sleep much.
Damien having nothing else to do obliged, and also played with Blue. The playing mainly consisted of the Dragons version of tag. On legs though as both Damien and Blue both couldn't use their wings, and play fighting.
After a few minutes of playing a crack coming from the egg area interrupted the sibling duo. Both of them turned their heads towards the eggs and saw the remaining two eggs getting cracked at the same time.
The two eggs shaked as more and more cracks started appearing, before the two eggs burst forth and two small dragons came out. One of them was red and the other was golden. Both of them appeared to be half a head shorter than Blue.
The gold one had 3 horns instead of 2 or 1 on its forehead, with glorious golden scales while the red one had 2 horns like Damien with fiery red scales. Damien also instinctively knew that the Gold one was a girl while the red one was a boy.
Thus Damien naturally named them Red and Gold.
Red and Gold just like Blue did't pay any attention to their surroundings and started to chow down on their eggs, and only noticed Damien's and Blue's presence after finishing their meal.
They initially looked like they wanted to fight Blue but once the twins saw that Blue was besides Damien they gave up. Instead they looked at each other and almost instantly their faces hardened.
Damien saw this and knew that Gold and Red where about to fight, and was about to intervene, before nearly barreling on the ground with laughter.
As the two where about to charge headfirst to fight, both of the dragons stumbled and felt head first into the mud.
Blue however did not hide his amusement as rolled on the floor, with what Damien assumed to be laughter.
After the mess up both of the dragons got up slowly, as if embarrassed out of their minds, before making their way to Damien.
Just like Blue they sat besides him, but unlike Blue they did not sleep, instead glaring at each other with..... a mix of hatred and respect.
Damien did not care about the quarrel of the twins. If worse comes to worse, he'll just separate them.
In fact Damien didn't even know why he scared for the little shits, but it just came instinctively.
That's when Damien realised something.
"Ahh shit I need food. "
