Attention my first language is not English, and I would appreciate if you would be so kind and point my mistakes out. Also, this is my first time writing a story, so please have mercy with my soul. Thank you very much and have fun reading.
In a giant stone courtyard with an open top and a stone statue of a dragon and a human side by side and surrounded by a big flower bed in the center, Zeldaris and Aversia were having a fierce mock battle against each other.
They were both around 8 years old, but it was difficult to pinpoint the age of these two, because they looked like humanoid dragons. Zeldaris and Aversia were around 1,2 Meters tall, with scales covering their hands and growing up their arms. Some scales could also be seen on their faces and their shoulders. Because of their young age they did not have any horns yet and their wings haven´t formed yet.
Zeldaris was a boy with silvery scales, silvery spiked hair which grows down to his back, had blue eyes and wore beige baggy pants and a white shirt.
Aversia was a girl with black scales, toned skin, dark long hair in a ponytail and wore like Zeldaris dark baggy pants and a dark shirt.
Suddenly a yell saying "Enough" was herd.
Both Zeldaris and Aversia stopped immediately.
The speaker was the mother of Aversia, Emrissen. She was a tall woman of around 1,85 meters with a voluptuous figure, black eyes and raven black hair down to her waist. She wore a black dress that covers her entire body and a bangle around her arm that looks like a dragon.
To the right of Emrissen, stood her husband, Vulcan. He was a man with toned skin and a lot of muscles. He had a bald head, blue eyes, and a short mustache. His clothing was just screaming blacksmith, which he was for a long time before he med Emrissen and learned enchant magic from her and is now trying to combine these two.
Standing left from Emrissen was Zeldaris´s mother Challot. She was with 1,8 meters a bit shorter than Emrissen and is more of an athletic build. silver hair, comber in a ponytail.
Challot had grey eyes and wares a similar dress to Emrissen in white.
Both Challot and Emrissen were dragons that had taken on a human form through magic, and which is also the reason that Zeldaris father run away when Challot told him that she was a dragon and was pregnant with his child.
But the most glaring thing about them was that both were missing an arm.
Challot lost her left arm, while Emrissen lost her right arm.
They never really talked about how they lost their arms, but they told them that they lost them while trying to protect them.
Zeldaris and Aversia walked to their mothers and asked, "How did we do?".
To which Challot said " You have improved very much in a short time Zeldaris, but you still use too flashy moves and let your guard down too easily and you need to use more variety in your attacks otherwise your opponent is going to have no problem in reading your moves.".
" Aversia, you leave too many openings and are thinking too much, through which you are unable to properly react to your opponent." said Emrissen to hear daughter.
Both Aversia and Zeldaris had a dejected look to which both Challot and Emrissen sighed.
" We know we are asking a lot of you. Your training is hard, and you are still incredibly young, but with the growing threat by the dragon in the west, we need you to be at least able to defend yourself against any possible danger, or a missing limb is the least of your concerns." said Challot and lifted what is left of her left arm. To which Emrissen lifted her right arm and showing it to the two children, they used this as an example to never be careless.
Aversia and Zeldaris were already familiar with that sight, but it still filled them with dread, because they know that these two speak from experience.
Vulcan who stayed up to this point quite said," I know you two are concerned about their safety, but the war with the dragons of the west is still far away, so don't overdo it with their training you two."
" He is right you know." said a deep and serious voice.
They looked in the direction of the voice and saw a giant dragon with beige scales, a short horn on his nose, two long horns on his head and two long tusks frowning from his head to the front of his head.
At his side was a voluptuous woman with long scarlet red hair with a right front braid.
They were the dragon of virtue Belserion and the queen of the country Dragnof, Irene.
" Yeah, yeah, we know, thank you for the obvious, mister always serious." said Emrissen to Belserion in an obvious annoyed tone, which made everyone including Irene laughed at the comment.
" Even after all this time and even after becoming a parent your attitude, outside of combat, didn't change at all. And the same goes for you too Challot." said Belserion and sighed.
" We dragons don't change that easily or that fast besides if we were always so serious, we wouldn't be able to enjoy our time in peace and with our family and it would be pretty boring too.", said Challot laughing at Belserion.
"I am not asking you not to be always serious but to be more serious from time to time." said Belserion, who was starting to get annoyed.
" Oh, my are you still angry about last time or the fact that you can't learn the magic that gives you a human form?" asked Challot in a teasing tone.
"Don't joke with me you old ha..."
"I WOULD BE QUIET IF I WERE YOU" yelled Challot who glared at Belserion as if she would kill him at any moment.
Feeling as if the grim reaper was behind him Belserion was instantly scared and looked at Emrissen for help only to see the same expression on her face.
" You do know that Challot and I are about the same age, right?", asked Emrissen with a threatening face.
Scared for his life Belserion looks pleading at Vulcan, Zeldaris and Aversia for help.
But they looked away when their eyes were about to meet, signifying that they would not help.
"I think we need to teach you not to play with a woman's age" said Emrissen smiling at Belserion.
" I agree" said Challot and they both begun dragging Belserion outside.
Belserion struggling with all his might screamed „HELP ME"
But seeing that no one was going to help him, he fell into despair.
The sight of Belserion being dragged outside by Emrissen and Challot in their human form would normally bring everyone to laugh but now they were to scared by the two women.
It took a while for everyone to regain themselves again and Irene asked Vulcan „Will Belserion survive this?"
Vulcan said scared" Not entirely sure, because he mentioned the one matter you should never mention in their presence, their age."
Soon the angry roar of two dragons and the wailing sound of a third was herd and everyone present prayed for Belserion and that he would be able to survive this.
