Chapter 17 dragons are troublesome and Elizabeth at 16 years old

Rine POV 

I slid down the rocks as I ran for dear life, that giant oversized lizard, I'll get it for this. When I was observing it waiting for a chance it snuck up on me and spilled its prey's blood on top of me. So I'm running with a sticky feeling. If I catch that oversized lizard I'm burning it to crisp with my fire magic. By the way I'm on the run because I smell like blood and I'm attracting most of those lizards. I can hear roars behind me, my ears twitched as I notice a giant shadow over my head. I'm so screwed, that's what I thought at this moment.

You've earned the title Dragon's Running palate.

Wait like cross out that title I want like nothing to do with it. My wakizashi got broke by one of the dragon's tail. So I'm running for dear life. I'd rather do the eating and chasing it's not fun to be chased.

Elizabeth age 16

Elizabeth POV 

I'm tired from moving all those boxes, it's funny that I have a little brother now. I know I have no self control when it comes to cute things. Leo's peeking out from behind my mother. Why is it that he's ok with mother but not me. My body collapse on the spot as I pouted to my mother.

"Now Eliza it's not nice to be depressed over not being able to trick him with candy." Mother 

"I didn't. All I wanted was to make him wear this cute maid dress I bought." Elizabeth 

Leo's crying tears while holding onto my mother's skirt. My mother was making lunch for us as I was carrying my boxes and rearranging my room. We had just moved in with Leo and my new step dad. My mother had decided to leave little Amelia with grandmother because she kept crying when I tried to go near. She's just 1 years old but how'd she get so wary of me. I mean sure I over did some things. Like dress her in 26 different clothes as a baby and took a picture of each. I love cute small things, children are also included in the category. I might have scared little Leo. 

"You know you got to stop that drooling face as your staring at Leo. Your scaring the boy." Mother

"But I swear I wasn't thinking anything inappropriate." Elizabeth 

"That's what you said before you made little Amelia cry as she held tightly to the curtains crying while yelling no to your habit of trying to change her clothes." Mother

"I swear I'll change this habit of mine so that I don't scare Amelia" Elizabeth 

"You know you don't have to fist pump the air. It's not like anyone's trying to steal your little sister away. Also Leo fell asleep from crying." Mother

Now I'm starting to feel guilty since he's not letting go of mother as he's hugging her tightly. I'm glad he's warmed up to my mother but why does he also cry when I hug him. I mean it's not like I'm holding clothes and trying to sneak it on him 24/7. Maybe my excessive stalking him out of worry might be it. 

"I'm sure you should stop it all. I swear you have your father's genes. I mean you didn't like it either when your father did excessive skinship hugs, the dress up doll sessions. If you don't want to turn to that you better fix at least a bit of your habit of dressing children." Mother

 "Fine I'll fix it." Elizabeth 

"Do you still have those weird dreams of yours you told me about Eliza." Mother

"It's been getting more vivid lately. In those dreams I'm this girl in her 20s traveling around in a world full of magic and mythical creatures. In those dreams I fight dragons, Phoenix, vampires and Angels. I'd........ nevermind it's just dreams there's no why I'm so cruel as to turn a city into a bloodied rain of corpse. I mean it just doesn't fit me." Elizabeth 

"Eliza talk to me if your having issues with your dreams." Mother

Mother's POV

I wait until Eliza's gone to bed, I call her by that nickname since she was a child. My hands went to the phone as I dial Leo's father. 

"Versa we need to talk." Mei

"Come now it can't be that bad Melvori, you the goddess of memories are fussing over your daughter." Versa

"I don't want to hear that from you a vampire." Mei

"Well your the only goddess that had your life with a mere mortal and had a child with him." Versa

"I don't want to here that from you who married a mirror demon. But that's not the issue, it's Eliza. She's starting to remember even though we sealed into my child's body. It seems she's starting to take over Eliza." Mei

"So the great and powerful memories goddess is frighten that she, Arielle will go on rampage. She's both the race Creator and destroyers, it just means she can ascend faster right. But that's not what your worrying about is it now. As a creator born on Earth, she caused many castes many disasters like during the medieval era where she made plagues appear wherever she went. Or when she jumped worlds and blood bathed entire cities because she was angered. But what you fear most isn't that. It's the fact she's similar to a shapeshifter and can take any form of face isn't it. Like your race says goddess, but your class says 1st immortal mage." Versa

"I don't want her to be burden if the seal comes undone." Mei 

"All things come undone, as a shapeshifter it's harder for her since she's in a different class, she can't turn into other people like those body stealers. Arielle is unique since she looks different with which ever race she takes, but it's always distinct. You wish for her to be unburdened but did you tell her you gave her your immortality and choose to turn to a weakened humanlike state. The reason we're even together is because I agreed with those stupid gods that your needed. But what I don't get is why do you love Arielle so much that you even forsaken your godly duties Melvori." Versa

"She did try to kill me. I don't mind if you turn me to a vampire like they the gods ordered. The longest I can watch over my children." Mei

"Out of all the gods, your more human than them. You have more emotions showing and you actually care for your children." Versa

"I'll undo the seal for Arielle when she's 36. When Leo turns 16 years old her seal will be undone. I'm sorry for Elizabeth that she won't remember anything in between since Arielle will make it seem like black outs." Mei

"You know the gods of Earth will hate you for this. Letting her loose again." Versa

"Its the least I could do since I sealed her in my body for centuries until I had Eliza. Eliza won't remember when Arielle is out and controlling their body but I feel guilty for doing all this to her." Mei

"You've grown too soft for a goddess. This is why they don't mix with humans. They're more detached from worldly desires. But you can't do so at all now can you. You've grown attached to 'her' for too long. You should hide yourself for a while after I turn you into a vampire." Versa

"So your saying you'll stage a accident so that I'm no longer being supervised by the gods." Mei

"It's the least I can do for a old friend. So I'll do so when you undo the seal on her." Versa

"Arielle finally got to feel motherly love this time right." Mei

"Don't sound so happy about that just yet. You don't know if she'll fuse with Eliza or if she'll do the same things again." Versa

"I know creators and destroyers are beings formed from energy that gained self awareness after centuries. They can't be killed by gods, since they outrank us. But I wanted her to at least have a bit of humanity to understand them, to agree with them, to live in coexistence. Not to kill them for small mistakes or anger." Mei

"Your sounding to melancholy Melvori, your a goddess. Know to keep your distance from them instead. Remember they tried to kill you during the witch trials. You the goddess of memories that was immortal. If you unseal her and the first thing she went for is you when I just turned you, you won't be a immortal vampire. " Versa

"I don't mind if she hate she me the longest she's alive and well." Mei

"Don't tell me you a goddess as turned into a suicide freak after all these years. Has old age gotten you Melvori." Versa

"No I'm just enjoying motherhood." Mei

"It doesn't it sounds like you want forgiveness from Arielle for sealing her. Look here you had no choice you were ordered to by the other gods. Don't go falling for her, 'Arielle' is dangerous. Do you here me." Versa

I hang up the phone on him as I grabbed a photo of me holding Eliza as a baby with her father in the picture. A immortal goddess who loses her immortality once she gives birth. It's pathetic since I'm the only goddess who has lived for centuries. Those I've known have long passed and replaced by their children or other new gods. I stare at Eliza's father, he who found out about me being a goddess didn't mind. Rather it was funny he panicked when I was giving birth to Eliza. He was like your not going to die from child birth right.

My response was what era do we think we're in medieval era. I still remember his shy act as he scratched his head apologizing to me since I'm no longer immortal. But I didn't mind since I used him. Rather I pitied him since Eliza will be burdened. Instead over the years spent with her has made me more emotional. 

Versa is correct most gods and goddesses don't show so much attachment like this. Us Earth gods that rule over this world Earth, are often detached since emotions would get in the way of work. 

"I don't mind if both Eliza and Arielle hates me for this. Versa I already lost when she cut off my head centuries ago when I was still immortal. I'm returning the favor returning her freedom I took 789 years go. I had her sealed that long. It's about time I repayed her for keeping me company all those years inside my body. Making her immortal like this, Eliza you can curse me as your mother if you want." Mei 

"I thought it was odd you hung up the phone when we weren't finished talking." Versa

"So you came in person." Mei

I stared at his glowing yellow eyes and black hair. 

"You know you look like a 36 year old mafia boss in that suit." Mei

"Your planning something aren't you Mei. And it's not against the gods here is it. You seemed out of it after that mission they sent you after her. What did Arielle show you a goddess of memories." Versa

"Nothing really." Mei

"Don't give me that look of the desolate and irresponsible look. She did something back then didn't she." Versa

"Fine you want to know. I went through Arielle's memories. She hates men down to the core, she was raped nonstop for years when she barely gained self awareness as a creator/destroyer. Do you think I enjoyed it when they ordered me to go through her memories and to kill her by using that weakness. The other creators laughed as they ordered us gods to put her out of her misery. I couldn't do it, they laughed at her instead and bullied her one of their kind. The destroyers were even worse they'd rip her apart and then use their abilities to fix her back again. So the issue of her going on rampage was more of her unstable mind. I couldn't do a thing besides seal her and hide myself here on Earth. What more do you and them want from us. Hasn't she been through enough." Mei

"Calm down Mei no one is ordering you to kill Eliza." Versa

"I'm tired of following orders. Very tired to be ordered by the celestials to fix laws, problems with the world. The creators who bully their own wanting me to fix their mess with Arielle. They who threw her here to earth as soon as she was born and watched her in amusement. Those damned destroyers whom take lives on a whim or emotional imbalance using her for a means to a end." Mei

"This isn't you Melvori. Don't turn into a corrupt goddess because of them." Versa

"I'll just tell you this I want nothing to do with them anymore nor am I going to allow them to touch Eliza." Mei

"Snap out of it Melvori your the goddess of memories. Don't drown because your own abilities. Don't allow it to backfire on you. Don't end up like your sister that was exiled to the world Rumvia." Versa

"You've known me and her for the longest. She's also immortal like me but at least she fought back against the ranking system. " Mei 

"Your not Noa. You didn't ascend into the creators rank like her. You also didn't change like her. Don't ever turn into that." Versa

"Maybe she was right to turn from a goddess to a shapeshifter like that rather she was the first before Arielle came along. She also worked hard to become a Sovereign which was ranks higher a goddess and wasn't bound by laws. She changed her race to Sovereign and earned powers of both creators and destroyers before they exiled her." Mei

"Don't turn negative. Your not Noa!" Versa

"But Versa wasn't she your first love." Mei 

"She was exiled for killing gods, celestials and creators. You and her aren't the same." Versa

He harshly shook my shoulders as I stared at him solemnly as I remember Noa's words now. 

"Sister before I leave for exile and you never see me again. Since I'm not coming back to these idiots. The ranking system for our class or race differs. You can change from a goddess race and ascend too since you have my blood too. Remember this if you choose to goddess > celestials > faeries > Sovereign > creators and destroyers. But remember not many can ascend like us. But I guess it's cause your not looking into our actual linage. I'll give you a hint out parents aren't gods but above the creators." Noa (hint: dimensions) 

I remember after that Noa hugged me really tight before she said some scary stuff that I didn't get at the time. She defined an unknown being I didn't realize existed until now.

"Dimensions shouldn't be bounded down like this. They go where ever they like. They're whole body is full of living worlds. Where people exist it is our source. As for the creators that order us around since they're a mass of energy and can create things, longest it's living they can make it. We dimensions are emotional creatures like human depending on our mood can cause catastrophes to the worlds inside us. Remember this sister we are living worlds, not goddesses those are but one thing inside us so us dimensions can take any form we wish. We're not shapeshifters but at the same time that's because we have those same beings in us. But it's up to us to create a world we want with our own rules inside ourselves. Failure to do so is a failed Dimension." Noa

That was the last time I'd seen her. She had explain into depth that me and her aren't the same as other goddesses but I don't get when she said Dimensions. Living worlds? We're an mass of it was what she said about me and her. Was that why she didn't like the ranking system. She said they were corrupted. That me taking this form as a goddess wasn't really my form? I'm a goddess not some sort of problematic being that can destroy or create worlds much less change it. 

"Mei you aren't Noa, so you have to take care of yourself." Versa

"You don't know anything about me." Mei
