Chapter 4: The God and The Dragon

Already introducing a new character. He will have 1 more chapter to himself after this though im not quite sure about anything after that. Mostly writing this chapter now because I have a bad case of short term memory loss and I will most likely forget about the finer details of the chapter or even some major things if I don't write the chapter now, (No I wasn't kidding I actually have a bit of a memory loss problem. It becomes quite a hassle whilst doing chores and making shopping trips I have to carry a list wherever I go it gets annoying at times -_-

‘Crack, Crack’

The little boy rolled his head back and forth on his neck in an attempt to loosen up his dormant muscles.

He took a step forward from the bed that he had laid in for an eternity and stepped through a vale of invisible magic into a main cave chamber. As he stepped further into the cave towards the dimly lit exit. He was surprised to find he could feel pain when he stepped on a rock

The boy inspected his body and showed a mildly annoyed face as he noticed that he was naked. His small yet well toned muscular body gleamed in the dim light of the cave.

After kicking away the small rock that had disrupted his path he began to step forward once again. His bare feet tapped against the slippery wet cave floor.

‘Grooowwwwllll !’

A menacing sound could be heard from behind the boy.

Without even looking he lept to the side. With seemingly no effort he had jumped almost 2 meters away.

As he landed a large clawed scaly hand smashed into the place where the boy had previously stood. The solid stone floor had been crushed and mangled by the impact of the hand.

The boy turned his head to see the menace that resided behind him.

2 large green eyes stared back at him through the darkness. The eyes showed annoyance and weariness.

The boy had a frustrated look on his face. He sighed.

“Even in the next life you still pester me.”

Taking a step forward towards the luminous eyes he yelled. “BITCH COME AT ME,”

Seemingly in response a large green tail swept from the dark portion of the cave. It made a whistling sound as the spikes that lined its exterior tore through the air.

This time the boy didn’t even move to block the swing.With a resounding boom the massive tail crashed into the body resulting in a large shock wave that cracked the stone under his feet.

The boy however barely showed any strain from the attack and was only pushed back a few centimeters. He opened his eyes and instead of his previously dull brown eyes, 2 thin stilted red pupils were shown.

The eyes had a sinister glow that dimly lit the cave revealing that the culprit behind the attempts on his life was a fairly large green dragon.

Opening his mouth the boy showed a mouth full of sharp pointed teeth that barely fit into his mouth the canines were long in particular.

He cracked his neck. “Seems as though i’m not quite used to this body, but it will do.” Lifting his arm in above his head and opening his hand a bright white light surrounded him. When the light subsided a thin whip was in his hand. It was covered in sleek white scales with an occasional dark black spike jutting out of it that looked the the horn of some type of animal.

Suddenly cracking the whip it wrapped itself around the dragons green scaled neck. It sleepily growled in displeasure and scratched its head with its hind leg like you would expect a dog or cat to do.

Huffing a large amount of air into his lungs the boy let it all out in 1 command. ‘HUUUUU’ “HEEL!!!!!”(Longer and more exaggerated than this but when I tried to make it longer it just looked like I was saying Hell.)

His voice carried authority and majesty as it reverberated around the room. This also seemed to have caught the dragon's attention  as it immediately sat straight up and stopped its attempts at killing the boy.

He let out an exasperated sigh “That's better,” tugging on the whip he forced the dragon to put its large scaled face next to his.

A pale emerald light emitted from the dragon's body. Its large form started so shrink, it shrunk until it was about the size of a average sized human being. Suddenly the green light that surrounded its body shattered and rained down to the floor in a shower of sparkles. Where the dragon had stood there was now a beautiful young woman with green eyes and light turquoise hair.(check bottom of page)She had a white training collar around her neck and had a half asleep look on her face. She yawned and lifted her arms in the air.

“I don wanna get up, I was just havin a good dream,” she whined.

The boys’ hair had turned a shade of silver and a vein had popped on his forehead.

“I TELL YOU TO GUARD ME AND WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN I WAKE UP?!! YOU TRY AND KILL ME!!!”

‘Growllll’ This time the sound didn't come from a dragon's throat but the girl's stomach. “Master i’m huuunnngggrryyyyy,”

The boy face palmed. “I see you haven't become any less of an idiot the only reason I let you guard me was because I had hoped that you would have gotten bored and leave to pester some other unfortunate ‘Master’.”

To this the girl showed a bright but idiotic smile. “Nope master is the only master for me.

The boy sighed “have you at least followed some of my instructions?”

“Of course, the exact time past is 100,000 years making this the year 380,969” As she said this she gave a proud smile and straightened her back.

“At least you are good for one thing.”

Tugging on the girls chain and practically dragging her behind him, the boy walked towards the entrance of the cave.

As he came to the opening he whistled. “Dang this is new I wonder exactly what happened while I was gone?”

In front of him was a large temple lined with humanoid skulls. The steps leading to the cave were made of a cold black stone that was stained with a sticky red fluid. It was not particularly hard to guess what this liquid was when you considered the 30 shocked men who were staring at him  and the naked woman tied to a black table.

The boy smiled as he felt an influx of power run through his body lighting the 2 blood red triangular tattoos under his eyes.

“Time to test the waters I guess.”

While opening his mouth and speaking with great authority he said “You there who are you and what are you doing?”

A large man with a thin wispy mustache knelt on the ground before him. He was trembling immensely.

“M my god we were in the process of sacrificing this woman to you so that you may bless us with your darkness, though we had never considered that low lives such as ourselves would be graced with the presence of our lord, the god of merciless slaughter and blood himself. Even the high priest have never seen you personally.

The boys eyebrows raised “Oh? And what is my name my priest.”

The priest laughed nervously. “My lord I would never forget your name how could I? I have spent my whole life worshiping this shrine. You are Ichor. God of Blood and merciless slaughter. And I assume that the heavenly figure behind you is the Dragon god Fafnir?”

Ichors’ face filled with amusement “Hahaha did you say god? I assure you that Fafnir is a woman. See for yourself. Ichor dragged Fafnir forwards and pushed her down the stairs. Ichor laughed hysterically while the green haired beauty tumbled down the steps.

Fafnir rubbed her head and put on a pouting face as she turned towards the silver haired god. “Oooowwwiieee that hurt.”

The priests(Cultists?) now aware of the dragons ‘assets’ all blushed and turned their heads towards the ground resulting in more laughter from Ichor.

Without as much as a warning the boy/god stopped laughing and started to step down the stairs rubbing his hands together as he went. “Well then what do you say we get this over with, because as much as I think that you are amusing you are ultimately a waste of my time I have a world to wreak havoc on you know.”

The head priest looked confused. “My lord what do you mean? Our order will assist you in any way we can we won’t be a burden to you.”

Ichor responded with a genuine happy smile. “But I wouldn't be much of a merciless slaughterer would I?”

Some of the priest realized the implications of the last words said and had started to slowly back towards the door. Sadly for them the small god had no intentions of letting them escape.

Looking towards the dragoness who was still rubbing her head he yelled. “HEY DUMB ASS!”

Fafnir immediately stopped what she was doing stood at attention and gave him a military salute.

A bloodthirsty glint was in Ichors' eyes. “Sick em girl.”
