Waspy powdered the quads. And they pushed them like rafts in the air.

Raven and Monty were fascinated and had a great time.

The air was like a pool.

But it was time to go home.

They flew home....

The quad bikes landed on the main square and the humans saw the two teenagers still playing touch and go with the fairy who was whirring and giving them a push to go faster.

General Mondeville noticed once again that they were no longer in the same world. The land was only original in its name...

"Ouhouh... salut mamaaannnn " shouted Raven..

Then, seeing the wrathful look of Bello and Sarah who signaled them to land, they complied.

Sarah didn't know whether to congratulate them or scold them, but they were happy to be back.

It is true that they had a lot of fun with Waspy.

Meanwhile, back at the base.

"Professor Carnage....???"

It was Kabal calling me.

I was meditating and recharging huge mana crystals for other projects.

"Yes, I know Kabal... ammunition is getting scarce and processors are missing... We need to do more excavations and conquer other cities for their ruins... The task is huge and I can't take it anymore. I am a living being... not a machine... I have to sleep too! and... I have little ones now..."

"No, master... it's not that... It's Waspy..."

"What... she did something stupid again??? Is that why you're bothering me???"

"No, master... It's not a mistake but a catastrophe..."

I opened my eyes, my concentration gone... then, in rage. CAN'T YOU FIX IT? IT'S ALSO A GENERAL LIKE STAR AND KING CRANEDUR.."

I was in a rage and then I calmed down. It was also an excuse to go and see Kate... I had been neglecting her lately.

"Our bugs on the AI quads ..."

"WHAT!!!"

"Waspy talked about the dragon that burned her village and exterminated the gnome village... she held back out of stupidity but the humans now have suspicions... Worse, she revealed the fairy dust... and rained a crazy amount of it on the 2 teenagers...who flew home in front of everyone...."

I put my paw in front of my face...

"WASPY... WHY DIDN'T I EAT YOU???"

Kabal "She told the humans that she was in love with the dragon but you didn't love her back and she was sad all the time because of that..."

My anger collapsed and I now understood the fairy's melancholy and why she didn't like Kate... She was jealous...

Grahh!!! What to say to that!...

Then KAbal: "Master, should I eliminate Waspy? Eliminate the witnesses? Raven and Monty? There is still time..."

"No...I am an executioner for Tyrant's creatures but I don't... Dragons...uh..."

My thoughts were confused...

I needed to talk to these three...before the tour...

Okay...

"Kabal, call Waspy on his terminal..."

Meanwhile...

"Mom... you saw it's magic!!! look, we're flying..!" but the effects had faded"

Further on... in the square, Mondeville asked Bello.

"I have to talk to those two or three!

He walked toward them but Sarah stood between them.

"Chancellor, may I question the children and the fairy?"

"In due time, General... this is about my children first and I must first make sure nothing has happened to them."

Mondeville : "From their cheerful mood, they don't look like trauma at all!

Sarah: "I know your eyes sparkle just knowing that a human can fly... but you'll get your answer..."

They returned the courtesy.

Then Bello: "General, don't worry...they won't be long."

Sarah: "Waspy, are you coming for an ice cream with us?"

She entered the chancellor's apartment and sat down with a smile on her face.

"EH... that was great."

"Yes... great... "

"And did you see the speed?"

Then Waspy's bracelet vibrated and turned red.

She looked at the image... It was of a dragon with smoke coming out of its nostrils...

"W.A.S.P.Y.... You have until YESTERDAY to get your butt back HERE. And your two friends... They're coming with!... If you say one more word... I will rip out your stinger and sew your lips back on. And you'll end your days with a straw for a tongue!" CLAP!

Waspy: "WAHHHHHH .I can't!! hIIII hIIIII "

The two teenagers looked at waspy who had made himself on...

BZZZ BZZZ BZZZ

She rolled on the ground like an intoxicated bee...

A drone jeep arrived in front of the gate and a message was sent to the command center requesting that Waspy go "Home and that Raven and Monthy can come with. "

But Sarah intervened.

"Professor Reinhardt, with all due respect. May I know the reason why my children should leave the village? And Waspy is terrified... she is only a child and... I wonder why she who was so cheerful had a terror attack??? Should I conclude that my children are traumatized by you or something you are hiding from us? Already this morning we are wondering..."

"Madam Chancellor... Waspy, although she is a fairy and has the appearance of a child, is nevertheless a General... She is also responsible and despite her emotional outpourings, she must face her responsibilities. She divulges by idiocy or stupidity or distraction confidential information with military value... We are officially at war with the Elves and their intelligence is not to be taken lightly.

I propose that you accompany them or that you come in their place. I could go, but the information I have to transmit does not allow it.

Sarah caught her breath.

She took Waspy by the hand. "Come with me... you are safe..."

Then she looked at Monty and Raven, "Not a word to anyone until I get back...OK?"

After wiping away the carnage made by the bee... "Waspy...let's finish the ice cream... It's so stupid to ruin such a good time."

I was in a rage but Kate was next to me.

"Leave it to me.... you're too impulsive and you might burn all the wood you've gathered and reduce your efforts to nothing. Sooner or later...they will know...the dwarves know And you see...we are loved.. But you...you are feared..."

I blew out all my tension...

"I've been through so much, honey .... I've changed with all the hardships...I'm sorry..."

His long neck against mine and his purring calmed me down... Then I went to our "Nest" in our hidden "paradise", a small world in itself within the base... in fact a huge terrarium with dimensions... well, very big.

The jeep arrived 2 hours later and it was moving behind it a trail of smoke and sand.

Still under the protection of invisible drones and hidden cannons.

Kabal would have only one thought to activate and kill any intruder...

Waspy clutched Sarah's sleeve, who was not in a very good mood.

They arrived at a botanical garden and a villa in front of an inverted V-shaped entrance of colossal dimensions.

She was the first human to come to the entrance of my base.

Strangely, the style was the same as the village and the configuration was the same. Other villas were next door but with dwarf flags flying.

Kate was waiting for them outside... all dressed in white, to protect herself from the sun.

"Sarah! Chancellor.... Come... Waspy... don't be afraid.... As long as I'm here, Hans can't scold you."

And Waspy, for the first time, jumped into Kate's arms...whimpering...

"PArdon, Mistress...sorry...I was jealous..."

Sarah not having heard the story with her children yet was surprised that Waspy called her Mistress instead of "Kate" or "madam". It was like in the Middle Ages... though...

Sarah followed Kate and the air inside was refreshing.

Drinks and juices were laid out on the table

"It's warm here, not like in the highlands where winter still feels..."

She poured herself a cup of coffee and Sarah did the same, while Waspy calmed down over a nectar juice...

"Sarah. My husband and I have been through a lot lately but you have no idea... Hans doesn't have bad intentions... He's always had a communication problem. Lost in science and also caught in a hell and end of the world. That leaves its mark..."

"But, Kate, if I may call you that...?"

"Yes... of course... why?"

"Waspy is terrified and I've never seen this... my mommy instincts make me want to protect her.."

Waspy lowered her head... "I'm sorry... Mistress".

Kate sighed... "Waspy... no such thing here! Hans is not here. I promise you that. He's playing with the little ones."

Waspy "Oh, the children? when I can play???"

"When it's time... it's too dangerous.... !!"

Sarah tensed for a moment.

Kate: "I'm a mom too... and I understand... but we're here to... ah.. it's too hard.... " then she started to cry....

"Kate??? what's wrong??"

"Everything... The secrets...it's terrible...I can't take it anymore...I'm so lonely too and the dwarves.... ahhh they're crashing like a rug..."

Then she looked Sarah in the eyes...

"They didn't tell you? Really??"

"I didn't have time.."

Kate thought quickly. If the secrets were not disclosed, Kabal might be tempted to make an "accident" but Kate refuted all this violence. She didn't agree with my logic and also she was preventing me for my sake from committing the irreparable...

"Sarah... What I am going to tell you and reveal to you. It is up to you to say it or not. But sooner or later it will come out. I don't want our trust to be lost. You are our friends, our family and our ancestors... I don't want to lose you... I would die of grief.."

Sarah: "Kate, you can tell me anything...and we owe you our lives...I can hear everything..."

"Hans...he is three thousand years old.... "

Sarah put her hand in front of her mouth..

"Me too.... but I've only been awake for a few months," he, fifty years old.... We were put into cryonics prototypes but it didn't work so Hans created a nanobot system to regenerate tissue but simulations and tests were a total failure...He was running out of time...and he had brought back mummified tissue from the last earth dragon linked to the cult of Bahamut in Assyria but preserved in the legendary city of Shangri-lah that he found. The timeless tissues resisted and he managed to revive them with his marrow.

Taking a chance, he injected himself with the serum and became a dragon..."

Sarah: "Hans, a dragon???"

"Yes, and right away he got captured by the military but it was too late... the solar flare was already upon us and our atmosphere could no longer protect us."

The arks left, abandoning the population to its sad fate and these aliens in space, took human samples to keep them as "seed" or to sell them .

They took my son and daughter, little children.... Who probably died of old age centuries ago.."

Sarah laid her hands on Kate's across the width of the table.

"It must have been terrible.."

"Hans suffered martyrdom. He injected me with dragon marrow, but he thought it was too late. I was very lucky in our misfortune. As the gamma rays literally cooked us, Hans remained conscious and went out of his mind. The dragon was healing as he cooked in the tube of regenerating liquid. I was too, but I had lost consciousness.

The dragon went into a lethargy and hibernation for 3000 years.

Hans repaired what he could and had to start all over again, and in secret in those underground tunnels. He then made his calculations and did everything to get you back in good condition.

I'm a dragoness too... but we still have our human soul. Hans can stay human for days and I can stay human for hours at most. It is very painful..."

Sarah said nothing...

"Please, Sarah...stay my friend...don't tell the others...finally Waspy gave it up to Monty and Raven..."

Sarah didn't know what to think...

She thought back to the claws of the day before and the bloody carnage...

"Hans just wanted to tell your children the truth... nothing more The truth would have come out sooner or later..."

Sarah swallowed and measured these words... And she became dizzy...

"KKKAte, the elves told us that the village was a human farm.... It is to eat us????"

Kate noticed that Sarah had pulled her hands away and was crossing them, terrified on her legs. She wanted to run away.

Then she turned to Waspy..

"Waspy...tell me the truth..!!"

"The master will punish me...."

Kate: "Sarah, wait"

"NO, KATE, I WANT TO KNOW WHO YOU ARE! "and if I am being held here against my will!

"Waspy!"

Kate nodded toward Waspy, waiting for permission.

Sarah looked KAte in the eye for a brief moment.

"WAspy?"

The fairy trembled...

"WHY ARE YOU AFRAID!"

"Master Hans is going to take away all my toys..., deprive me of dessert and send me back to my hive..."

?????

"He didn't hurt you???"

"Only once, when he captured me... He was going to eat me.... like he ate the other fairies..."

!!!!!!!!!!

"HOW!"

Kate was shocked too... she didn't know.... "WHAT!!!! MY HUSBAND EATS FEES??"

Waspy twiddled her thumbs, her spoiled little fairy tantrums and anger exposed...

"I cried and and he spared me...He said I had a soul and I wasn't a monster...so I ate with him. I immediately found him very strong and beautiful but he only had thoughts of you, Kate, I'm sorry I was so cold, but I too would have liked to have beautiful eggs like you..."

Sarah, on the contrary, took the measure of horror...

"Waspy! Waspy, why are you talking nonsense..."

Waspy : "no... I am actually very afraid of disappointing the master and I am very afraid of the goddess. I have seen her. She is very big and she has very very big teeth and lots of heads!"

Kate froze. Waspy was really scared, especially since Enka asked me to eliminate her...

Sarah: "You were really scared then... and you are still scared???"

Waspy: "Less because you are here and so is Mistress Kate."

Kate: "I AM KATE, not Mistress!!!"

"Yes Mr.BZZ BZZZ Kate??"

Sarah. "So... the claw we saw in the temple, the offerings... it wasn't a movie.???"

Kate:" I think it's ridiculous but when I saw the goddess for real, I was like...like Waspy...She's here. Everywhere and she knows EVERYTHING! We love her, but we also fear her...She's a Hydra! "

Sarah "So the claw is the goddess???"

"No...not at all...it was Hans... He became a medieval scientist and plays his role to perfection with his dwarf friends. And I'm sure he'll have fun with Bello, the general and his clique and even your traitor Yuri..."

Sarah: "How tall is your husband?

"At rest, 25 meters but when he's angry, he gets bigger and when he's being pampered by his "mom / Goddess" he can climb up to 100 meters long...

He slaughtered an army of 7000 elves by himself. And they were helped by wizards...He saved the dwarves from an ethnic cleansing war all the other dwarven tribes were wiped out..."

Sarah: "And the little ones in this story...you announced dragonets..."

"Yes, they are lovely and I love them.. But we want them to have a future with you, to be educated and to have a place in this world... "

"Can we see them? I've never seen dragons in my life..."

"That's not a good idea...they are...wild and are in a predatory phase. The notion of right and wrong comes further and they carry everything in their mouths like any baby... But they have sharp teeth. They will tear you apart without knowing why. That's why we lock them up in a "den".

Kate grinned.

"Come on, Sarah... it's time..."

And Kate went out with Waspy giving Sarah her hand...

And Kate transformed herself into a 25 meters long dragon in front of the chancellor.

This one fell on the ground on the concrete gravel in front of the villa.

She wanted to flee but Kate was lying down. "It's me, KATE"...

Sarah was standing 50 meters away, and only her head was sticking out of the corner of the villa, terrorized by a giant.

Then Waspy let go of her hand and rushed towards the dragoness.

Sara:" Waspy!! come here quickly. Noooo!"

The fear was worse than for the dwarves...

Then Waspy climbed on Kate's neck and climbed the ridges to her horns and sat on her head...

"Come, Sarah. Kate is very nice. even the dwarves are her friends.."

And, as if by a miracle and out of nowhere....A Kobold and a dwarf court lady were at the feet of the dragoness and beckoned Sarah to come closer.

She resigned herself and began sobbing and crying as she walked forward... She had nowhere to run, except into the desert rocks, probably filled with monsters...

In fact, she saw monsters everywhere... The fairy as an ogress, the dwarf as a giant like Thor and his hammer and Kate, as Smaug who was going to spit fire everywhere and on everybody.....

It was too much... she fell on her knees and started to implore, to ask for mercy.

Kate was also hurt and started to cry too....

She turned her head and got up and walked towards the inverted V entrance of the hill.

Pixel and Waspy escorted the dragoness out and Sarah breathed in and out, shocked, and realized that she had hurt her friend because of her appearance...

Betty, as a reincarnated Kobold, offered the chancellor a ride back to the jeep.

She made a step forward, then, stopped... then, turned around and started to run in the direction of the dragonne which entered the base, with a heavy step.

And then Sara arrived and grabbed Kate by the tail with all her might.

"KATE... WAIT, SORRY... I was scared..."

The dragoness stopped and with her long neck, turned around.

Pixel jumped with a sheet to Kate's eyes and nose to wipe away the ravages of sadness (tears and other mucus..)

GLOUPS.

Kate lowered her muzzle to Sarah's level.

"I'm sorry I scared you..."

Then Sarah, touched her fingertips to the dragoness and was scared...

Sarah also saw that Kate was very much loved, but she saw that there were unfortunately no humans left on earth, except for those on the ark.

The two of them returned to the front of the villa, with Sarah sitting at a small round black wrought iron table and the dragoness opposite, lying flat on her stomach for obvious reasons. Also the Kobolds had put a face veil back on to hide the teeth and make her less scary.

"Thank you Sarah... it's up to you now to judge what to say or not to say.... But do not reject us... I only have you.. You are my friends, and all that is left of humanity."

Sarah had tears in her eyes at such carnage and almost felt pity.

"One last question before we leave...What will become of us? We are surrounded by non-humans too..."

"Sarah, I don't know myself but we live from day to day and try to survive...I've seen horrors and hideous monsters... I almost died and Hans saved me... I am angry with him because of the lies but I think he really loves you... You too, try to understand..."

"I will do what is necessary and the others will come to visit as before the base... I will visit it another day when I can see your little ones. I have a lot to think about . Ah men...human or dragon.... All the same."

This made the dragoness smile but it did not have the expected effect ... The chancellor had to come to terms with the fact that they were also now part of the "dwarves" in this world of giants...

Taking advantage of the opportunity... "Kate, can I go sleep at Sarah's???" hoping to escape a possibly certain punishment...

Kate: "We would take you for a child... Go ahead! And think sometimes .... Words can kill!!!"

Waspy shuddered but clutched the dragoness with her little hands to the muzzle .BZZ BZZZ Kisses!!!
