The Crystallisation

POV Vesuvius:

As the dragon watched his minions and waited for their reaction, something suddenly moved on the very edge of his domain.

His senses sharpened as he felt it quickly close towards him, the air ringing and vibrating from its speed. It was still far, but it was quickly closing.

His eyes pierced into the distance.

A human ran at a speed of a sporting car through the green mountains valley. Glowing crystals protruded from his body as if they spouted from his flesh, and stains of crystalized blood covered his ragged clothes.

His eyes were nothing but pieces of crystal that glowed like a pair of lightbulbs.

'What the?'

Suddenly the human stopped and looked straight into the dragon's eyes as if he could see through all the clouds and smoke between them.

'Nope, this is not a human... at best it was a human.'

The being turned to run again, sprinting straight to him, the glowing crystals in its eyes brightening.
