THE ORACLE

In a big beautiful castle, a family of three were sitting down on a long rectangular glass table with a golden dragon crest printed in the middle of it. The family that sat there all had troubled and scared looks on their faces, the air around them was thick with worry and fear, and none of them spoke a word. They all waited, waiting for a solution to just pop out.

" What should we do!" A beautiful tan-skinned woman said, her long white hair flowing as she stood up " we can't just sit around forever! "

" Chione calm down, we need time to think this through, " A man said, his amber snake eyes calmly looking at his wife, he was

big in a muscular way and probably 6'7 in height, his dark blue hair falling down to his neck as he tried to console his wife

" Calm down!!" She raged " You want me to calm down! Tatsuya I don't think you understand that this situation involves me and the unborn kids in me ! so don't tell me to calm down!"

Ice growing on the walls as anger, and fear were growing in her silver eyes, Tatsuya already knew she was in one of her moods. He knew he couldn't just tell her to calm down and that they were in a severe situation, but right now coaxing her was all he could.

" Chione, try to calm down unless you want to freeze this old man to death," An old man identical to Tatsuya said

Chione looked at the walls and sighed apologetically

" Sorry father it's just, We don't know what to do and..., all I wanted was a normal life for my kids," She said solemnly as she sat down

" I know that Chione, but right now we all need to clear our minds, even if we tried we can't change the past "

They were all loss for words as soon as the old man said that, the truth was something that hurts especially when you want to hold onto a lie.

3 DAYS AGO

It was a beautiful and joyous day, for the news of new additions to the dragonkin family added joy to the hearts of all, be it commoner or noble. Everyone was happy

for Duke Tatsuya von Dragonkin. The dragonkin manor was filled with music, snacks, and happiness, for two lives were about to be born. People were joyfully dancing,

laughing, and eating. Nothing could ruin this day Chione thought as she saw the sight of the party, she greeted guests then walked over to Tatsuya.

" Isn't today just wonderful?" she said an unending smile on her face

" It is dear," Tatsuya said leaning down to kiss Chione's lips

" Not in front of the guests Tatsuya "

" But I'm just showing them how happy I am, an addition to the family would make our home more lively. " Tatsuya said his amber eyes glowing in happiness

" Not an addition, additions " Chione replied happily rubbing the small bump on her stomach

It was just 6 months ago they found out there were two little buns living in her and the joy of it was outstanding, they worked hard for their happiness

going through a lot of pains. Now they have a beautiful daughter and twins nothing can ruin this day !!!

" HEAR YE! HEAR YE! HIS MAJESTY THE KING HAS ARRIVED !!! "

As if on cue the music stopped, and the laughter chirped down. No one was singing or dancing anymore, they all stopped to look to see the king in all his glory, his signature smirk sitting on his handsome face, he looked to be in his late 20s. Standing next to him was one of the oldest Oracle tellers, said

to be able to communicate directly to the gods, he was a guy in his early hundreds, kind-hearted and strong he was the explanation of ' Don't judge a book

by its cover. He wore a happy smile on his face, companied With a wise aura making people feel more calm

The king stepped out cleared his throat and said

" Sorry to ruin this beautiful celebration but the Oracle teller has something so important to say to the Dragonkin's, " he paused looking at the oracle teller with his signature stink eye

" He couldn't tell me at the palace "

Feeling shudders up his spine the oracle teller stepped out gracefully, his long white robe flowing with him. He walked to Chione and took her hands.

" I have brought great news for you, Chione. " He paused then opened his eyes.

People in the hall gasped, it was said that the Oracle tellers sacrificed their eyes to the gods to see visions. But the sight of an eye socket with no eyes was quiet gruesome. He didn't react, having been used to the reaction. His eyes started to glow, then a bright light showed from his eyes, ears, and mouth.

Tatsuya's shock turned into a frown. He knew what this was, anyone that studied magic knew. It was an ancient practice of letting spirits take over your body, done only by the holiest of people, something that caused excruciating pain, a gruesome practice. He wondered what was so important to say that the Oracle teller would do something so painful.

Suddenly a loud booming voice spoke, shaking the castle and the people in it sounded

" On the night of the blue moon of the werewolf calendar, two twins would be born with outstanding power. One to rule creatures of the dark and the other to rule creatures of the light. The gods are tired of the corruption in this world and has brought you saviors. These powers are not to fall in the wrong hands, for if they do the world could be destroyed. Heed our warning wisely do not take it likely for if the world is to fall apart after the gods give you another chance of redemption they will not come back. "

The people in the room were all shocked, panicking, and worrying. The thought of strong beings with power enough to destroy the world was scary but the fact that one of those monsters were to rule the dark was even more ridiculous!!

" Did you hear that!"

" Yeah to think the duchess was giving birth to monsters"

"shh she's still around and their babies how could they know"

" Mommy I'm scared"

" I pity the parents especially the duke to think one of the child is to be the ruler of creatures he hates the most. "

The people spoke ruthlessly just a moment ago they were celebrating but now they were slandering the unborn children of the duke and duchess. 

The Oracle teller eyes, ears and mouth stopped glowing but because such a strong spirit took over him it injured his soul and caused his eyes, ears and mouth to bleed. The process of spirit possessing was cruel and painful, especially because a pure being was possessing something un-pure like the human soul. Even being the most pure oracle teller he still had his own normal human thoughts. 

He sighed " maybe thinking of murdering the king made it more painful"

He looked at the king standing there with a dark look in his dark blue eyes and even without the vision of the gods, he could tell the peaceful life of the Dragonkins were gone.
