Waking up in the town of Alerica was one of the things Ash hated the most, The second thing if you have to ask him would be being bored. Ash really hates being bored. As the son of the founders of this small village Ash could have anything he wanted not only was his bloodline the best but he was the strongest here. Ash's Life has been pretty easy doing anything he wanted, Even when his parents (The founders) died, Ash still found it relatively easy to live here. The young women still wanted Ash because of his looks and bloodline and noone in the older generation wanted to be his enemy because noone was quite sure on how strong ash was?! When he was younger he accidently ran into a cow head first and the cow got smashed into one of the village houses, What kinda strength does a child need to that?! And he was only six at that point, Being the older 17 year old he is now noone wants to fight him.... Ever
" WAKE UP ASH WAKE UP!!"
"no no no".It is like 6am who gets up at this god-forgotten time Ash thought to himself as he rolled over to see Sarah jumping up and down like a hyperactive bunny. Sarah is the mayors daughter. She is kinda in charge of making sure Ieverything he ever needs, If she wasn't so childish and you know 8 years I would have dated her, Atleast it would have made something less boring, I thought as I looked at her pouting face.
"Ash if you dont wake up right now I am going to go get a bucket of super cold water and throw it right on you!! Would you like that?!" She has quite the smirk on when she says that like she wants an excuse to see me in soaking clothes hahah. But can a 8 Year old even have them kinds of feelings?! hahaha.
"So what is the rush that you have me getting up at this time Sarah?" I ask while making no attempt to get outta bed, Well I am nlinking my eyes alot so I am honestly trying...Right??
" Silly Silly Ash (That hurts I am 17 you child) Today is the village tournament where all the young adult get to show of their power and woo other young adult, Do you not want to woo some people?" She asked with an evil smirk which makes me hit her with my pillow.
"Ouch" She gets hit and jumps back and nearly falls over her own feet but she recovered well.
"We both know they will not let me in the tournament, They do not want anyone Injured or hurt after all"
I decided to get lazily start getting up while sighing, It is not that i am lazy or anything it is just if i have nothing to do i much prefer sleeping than doing nothing. It's like picking your own poisons
"Well there is nothing I can do about that Ash, I just did not want you to be left out hahahahah" Sarah has her evil trademark smirk on but is already running away to go watch the tournament before I have a chance to hit her.
I started at her and shouted " I AM GOING FOR A RUN IN THE MOUNTAINS! IF I HAVE TIME I WILL COME WATCH LATER!"
Sarah quickly turns around and stares at me for a bit before poking her tongue out and waving.. DAMN BRAT YOU WAIT TILL I COME BACK AFTER MY RUN IMA BEAT YOU.
How was I suppose to know that it would be ages since I will come back here?
I start my run up the mountain like a flash, for most people running miles up this mountain would be an impossible task and they would most likely swear at you and tell you to piss off. But for me it was like a walk in the park, No seriously it was. Infact a walk in the park was alot more difficult to normal people then running up a mountain was to Ash.
I have been runing up this mountain was seems like about an hour and I start hearing a noise one that I get quite use to being up in these mountains., It means that an Animal up here has seen me as prey and decided to eat me....Well shit......For the stupid animal I mean, If it is going to attack and try and eat me I should respond in kind right?!
Grrrrrrrr I hear this annoying noise of to side as I am running up the mountain. Why does someone who wants to sneak up on me start growling like that, It is just giving away it's postion. I don't even know if I should be dissappointed at this sub par beast or be happy it is super easy to deal with.
I ran up the mountain still followed by that growling noise, Honestly the beast deserves praise by tailing me this long without getting annoyed. I see a bit of a stream coming down this mountain top and I go over there to get some water because we both know as soon as I reach down to get some water with my hands cup the beast will finally come outta hiding and bounce on me. I reach down ever so slowly, Then quickly get up and look around, Then I cough and go back to reaching down again then I quickly get up and couch while looking around. Why am I doing this you are no doubt asking yourself? Because I thought it would be entertaining to piss this beast off. I am not quite sure what type of beast it is untill it comes out but I know everytime I go down get some water it is about to make its move, which is why I keep getting up at the last seconds. I thought it would kill my boredom and how right I was. Everytime my hands go down to water and back up and my eyes turn to the sky and around the mountain, My ears pick up an super annoyed growl like someone who has got dinner right in front of them. But I am bored of these games now so let us get rid of this pest quickly.
"Come out you little sup par piece of crap" As soon as these words leave my mouth I hear the sounds of bushes moving and a bit of a suprised growl escape from the beast mouth. When the beast finally comes out I can see it is a Jaguar which is basically like a lion but faster I noticed a few things odd with this beast tho, Most of all this beast is sweating like is has just ran for days and days without water. I ponder to myself what kinda monster would be fast enough to make this jaguar sweat like that. Even when I am looking at this Jaguar fur it is all wet with sweat, and while I look at it with confused eyes it looks back at me with hatred like I have just took the beast pride and manhood. "Growwwwwwwls" I mock it to see if it is stupid enough to launch at me because I copyed the beast prized growl, But the beast did not move an inch just looking at me with hatred
POV CHANGE (Jaguar Beast) (In Jaguar head all beasts have thoughts)
"Growwwl" I always thought I was the quickest on the mounatin, Noone can ever catch me. My luck had been so good today I even killed one of the rival lion who live up in the mountain with me. It was all thanks to my speed and quick reflexs BUT BUT The strangest thing happened I saw a human come up the moutain, I thought it was my lucky day I have no had human in so long. It always taste the best raw and they are always so slow and weak, It is like the where made to be hunted, I chased after this human for a while but I kept getting the strangest feeling he know I was there, Another thing I found strange is I was running at full speed and I could not close the distance. AND AND He kinda looked like he was not trying to run. When I finally got closer I was so tired, I have never ran this hard for so long. I can go really fast but I cannot hold it for that long. The human who looked quite young was finally slowing down and going to a water.

I take a hard look at this human but he does not look like someone I should be afaird of. He has White hair that goes now near his eyes, The eyes look a bit weird being kinda Golden but his build seems to be slim with a bit of muscle. All in all he looks perfect to be my prey a bit weird looking but he does not look strong in the slightest. I wait for him as he puts his hand down to get some water. This is clearly my chance as soon as he goes all the way down to get water I will pounch and get my new food. I wait for it paitently,But everytime he but his head down he keeps putting it up to look someonewhere, Does he know I am here?! No that can not be? But then just as I glare at him in clear annoyance and anger he says something which I dont quite understand
"Come out you sub par piece of crap" Says the white head youngster, I dunno why but when he says this my blood boils and I have never been so angry in my life, Why did it take me so long to catch him? Why did he keep looking up like he was trying to annoy me?! Why does the words he just spoke annoy me so much?! I have enough, I leave my hiding place and go stand in front of this youngster while I give him the worst glare I have ever given someone, Filled with Hatred and loathing. For making me run and sweat, For making me feel like I could not even hunt. I swear today I will kill this human Brat.
POV CHANGE (Back To Ash)
The Jaguar is still looking at me with such hatred it kinda wants to make me laugh. Then the jauguar starts putting some power it is back legs as it is about to pounce on me, It does this action super quick but honestly my eyesight is so much better then this silly cat. It pounces at me with it to sharpe claws caming at me honestly anyone else would be terrifed but I am just watching like it is not my problem. As soon as the Jauguar claws come close to me and it has convinced I am a dead man, I do a quick spin quick where my right foot end up right on the beast jaw. It's eyes are at first suprised by this turn of events. Then the Jauguars eyes went white and with a push of my foot the Jauguars corpse got smashed into one of the cave enter points by the stream and seems to have made another passage.
"Ahhh Shit I should not have kicked that hard" As I follow next to the stream and into the cave where the corpse would of ended up, I figured after about 20 mins of searching through this cave I have lost the corpse. How far did I kick it I ended up wondering?. I kinda just was searching for the corpse for something to do to kill my oh ever so present boredom. The when I try and find the way back I see that I am lost, Completly and super lost.
I take a look around this cave and see it is dark but not pitch back I wonder where that light is coming from, So I follow the cave walls with my hand and I keep walking along. I am not really scared of something coming out to fight me because most of the times I can hear anything come to sneek up on me. But my one true fear is not eating because even I would die without food, And getting hungry would scare me. It has been about 30 mins since I get lost and the light is getting closer. I start breaking of into a flat out sprint and then before I know it the light is on me. I am in a weird room, There is like a pedestal in the middle like where a sword of something use to be and as soon as I take a step forward that is when I hear a voice.
"Hello Young Human, I will give you one wish of anything you desire as long as you free me from my bindings!"
I look around for this so called 'Voice' But I cannot seem to find anyone here so I just yell out to him and hope he can hear me.
"Nah I am good, This seems sus, Not many people would be like sure I will free you and if they did than you would be sure they are either greedy or stupid
"I can give you anything you want. One wish no matter how strange I can make this happen".
"I have nothing I want on this world, I am already the strongest I could find, Everything Is made easy for me so you have nothing I want. I will just live in this boring world, In this boring village and have a very boring life" I said to the Voice.
"Hahahahha Well I can always send you to another world if you prefer might me better then this boring one"
For the First time in my life I am shocked, Can this voice acutally send me to a different world, Can I have fun. Everything would be new? Imagine it, Anything I do there would be for the first time. I look down at my hands and when I look at them I can see there are sweating from anticipation. I think the voice has notice as he keeps talking while I just wonder if i can finally bet my boredom.
"My Name is Artmist Dragonlord of The seven Realms, Former King of the ancients".
"What is your name boy?"?
I look around the room again still pondering the thought of being able to leave my boring life.
"My name is Ash" I shouted to the random Ancient.
"That is a nice name boy, So have you thought about it? Would you like take me up on my offer?" The voice sounded like it was happy like it already knew what I was going to say next.
"I wanna go to a new world, Tell me how to free you" I say with determation. Well If i am going to go, I will not think twice.
"All you need to is stand where it looks like a sword use to be and boom I am free" He says with a creppy happy voice
I walk up to the pedestal where it looks like a sword use to be, and as soon as my foot touch the top of it, Light stuff going of the hole room. I covered my eyes so there would be no damage to them because I would hate to be blind, I would be able to live life and have other senses but it honestly would not be for me.
When the light fades I "Gasp"
"What is wrong little one" Ancient Voice Artmist
I take one look at this ancient voice and start bursting out laughing "Hahahhaha" He looks like a little red dragon. But like the size of a kitten. I blink and look at him the start laughing. Than I start laughing again. I finally get my bearings back and stand upright to see a little red blurr smash into me, And for the first time in my life. I go flying into the cave wall with a Smash and fall down onto my arse. I look at him with a smirk. How fun I thought.
"SHUDDUPPP DONT LAUGHT AT ME" Ancient Artmist says with a growl, he seems to know what Ash was thinking in his laughter, Clearly this has happened to the poor dragon before.
"Couch Cough, Now that I am free I will keep my promise to you and give you stuff to help you on the way to your new world"
I just sit there and listen as I dont want to miss out on anything that could be important
" On your way to this new world, Since you annoyed me I will telling you nothing about it. I will use my ancient blessing so you can use the system of that world and it will put titles on you and level"
I keep nodding my head because if he told me everything and how to surivive how boring would that be?!
"Well on your way little one, I have alot of people to kill and suffer I may kill mostly everyone on this planet just because I can seeya"
"wait whaaa" And just like that the little dragon hit his nose on my chest and I was gone to a new land where it would be a lot less boring but little did I know that this would not be the last time me and Little Dragon Artmist would see each other again but the next time we meet the stakes would be so much higher.
