Chapitre 27: The Naming Ceremony

Whole night two figures didn't move even a bit.Like stone statues sitting there with halo around them. Teatind and Alcazar went out couple times but saw that the children didn't need their help.

''It seems boy pearl is much harder than mine.''said Teatind that was since her birth famous between dragons about her compressed pearl.

She always taught that her compressing is amazing but now seeing her son doing better than her,she felt truly happy.

There is an old story that said if someone succeed to compress the pearl one million times his pearl will turn into orb.After compressing orb million times it turns into the sea of power and wont need any more energy intake as he will produce his own energy.

But she never met any kind,neither dragon or human,that had such powers.But now...If her son could succeed that,it seems that this girl had the pool of life in her body.She will need so much energy to be able to make her own source.

''Alcazar,my love do you remember the old story about sea of power and sea of life?''she asked while cuddling in his arms while opening the scrolls.Their bodies entangled while both looked at the stories that they could reach.

''My love you should not move to much.We have now children and have to hold back,while they are around.''he said while gently stroking her neck.He didn't want to let go but he knew his one temperament.Then he remembered one thing and looked toward the children that were outside.

''I guess we have to think about his attitude on time.She is human after all.She will not be able to handle to much.''he said while shaking his head.''I know you can hear me.She is in her sea of life and still small human child .She can't concentrate on outside world like we dragons can.Your love might kill her.If you want to see her die earlier you can continue what you are doing.If not,you need to control yourself.''

Teatind looked at her beautiful boy and then at the girl and nodded her head.She wouldn't be even able to handle one of dragon kisses with that weak body of hers.She need to feed her well.

The boy opened his eyes and slight anger passed his eyes.It seems that his power might protect her ,but in same time kill her.If there is choice he should make ,he would prefer to stay her brother for life if she could live forever then being his bride for moment and die.

''Is there a way?For us?''he asked with deep sorrow in his voice.

Alcazar took his eyes of the scrolls.He looked at his son and sighed.

''Your mother is dragon of old kind.If she were not she would have died long time ago.That little girl has sea of life in her body.There is slight chance for her to become strong.But you will have to wait for it.Long time.Are you willing?''he asked looking at his son's back.

''I am willing.Dragons can live for thousands years.I will wait for her.To become strong enough for my love.''he said while strengthening his back.

''If you make big promise in front the dragon race,they might will be able to help you.But you will need patience and you need to learn controlling your pearl.When it turns into orb and then into sea of energy,you might become her power source .Are you willing my son?''he said while thinking that these children together were meant to meet.It was their destiny.

He turned to Teatind that looked at him with smile on her face.She knew what he taught about it.

''Yes he was born to be her power source and great help,she was born to become savior.They were destined.Like us.''she said while hugging him tightly.He nodded.

Dragons believe in destiny. Alcazar didn't find mate before she was born.It was meant to be. He was always in dragon library and when it was time to find mate he didn't feel like it was his time.So elders let him go.

Sometimes dragons wait for their future mates for thousand years, some longer.IT just means it was not the time.They take only one time their mate and as long one mate lives lives the other as well.the moment the one mate dies the other disappears from world as well.That is why dragons don't rush.

Alcazar waited for Teatind but didn't know that she was the one.He was book worm that never looked at dragon ladies.When she saw him once while visiting library she knew he was the one.But he was so much in taught that he almost missed the chance.

At first he was bothered by her.He hid everywhere and she found him everywhere,till one day she didn't just came to him and just kissed him.She was bold young lady indeed.

He was shocked and that is first time he really looked at her.When he saw her his blood went on fire and then he knew she was the mate he was waiting.Unfortunately for him,Teatind seems to hold grudges and sometimes rub that under his dragon nose.She is after all beautiful even for dragon,and he...didn't ...see....HER!

She still had bit grudge about that and pinched him on his arm.He started chuckling and swept her in his arms,run on other side of mountain,turned into the dragon and took her far away so the children wouldn't hear them.

The boy again opened eyes and chuckled as well.How passionate.then he looked at the girl and patted her head.-You must grow up and become much stronger than my mother.I think I am stronger than father.''-he taught while taking back posture of statue and continuing to intake energy.

In the dawn of next morning,the girls came outside and have sight of two statues that didn't move even a little bit.They hugged the little girl and patted on their brother shoulders.But the two of them didn't move.

They spread their arms and started collecting their energy as long there is still light of dawn.Their mother said they can do that doing day as well,but strongest is dawn and sunset.

While they stood there concentrated on the energy source,unnoticed little change happened to the little girl.She started as well collecting dawn energy.The sea of energy doing the night turned one way but now doing day it started turning the other way.She got millions of little specs of light absorbed into her sea.It connected again and again with outside light.

She just stood there looking as the specs turned in bigger specs and connected to bigger.Like drops of water it turned first into stream of of energy and then connected to the sea.And the sea turned and turned...

When the sun was already high up the girls stopped collecting energy and saw that these two don't plan moving.They looked for parents but they were gone as well.So they went down to collect the food.They run multiple times till they had almost hill of food inside the cave.

They didn't know how to cook so they choose to wait for their mother.She will be back soon anyway as the naming ceremony will take at straight noon.When the sun shines the brightest and there is no shadows.In that second they have to call their new names and all the dragons will hear them ,no matter where they are.

Soon energetic Alcazar and dead tiered Teatind came back.He wore her in his arms with apologetic face looking at her being angry.They have today naming ceremony and somebody from elders might arrive.How can she stand this.''I'll deal with you later.''she said while wanting to break his dragon head and see where his brain went.

The girls thought they were just caring about each other and was happy for that.She smiled at her daughters and turned to hiss trough her teeth.''Stupid idiot.''As answer she got brightest smile as he slowly put her down.

''My wife is fiercest,strongest most beautiful dragon.I love mt wife till end of time''he said while trying to escape her punches.They run around like little children till she felt sharp pain.He came back and let her punch him as much she wanted.It was on end his fault.

''Would you two stop showing love.This old dragon still needs to eat later.Where is the food?'' they heard voice from entrance of the cave.

He passed two children that still seem gathering the energy and in fleeting moment amazement flew trough his green eyes.He turned to look at the two girls and smiled at them.

''Did you get already offered the names from your parents?''he asked and when they shook their head he smiled brightly.''Then will on of you two accept me as Name Giver.''

''Wait minute we never gave you permission to offer them the Name.''Alcazar started to protest. Teatind patted his hand comforting him.

''The Name Giver is important person.He will be the child's second parent.Even if we do not exist anymore there will be him to take care of the Named Child.''she said to him.He knew that the Name Giver is important,but why it has to be HIM.His unruly older brother.

''Fine.Choose child and let the child decide.''he said while giving up.Even if this fool of brother is unruly he is after all his brother.He will treat the child even better than he could.

He looked at the girls and choose the one that already had bright smile on her face.It seems his unruly heritage will go to this girl.It will be fun making those old dragons go in air of fury with the things he will teach her.He winked at her and she winked back.Yep chosen.

Alcazar seems to be getting bigger headache.He choose the girl that has same aptitude as him.This pair of troublemakers will make dragon elders spit fire all over dragon mountain.Oh well,little bit of exercise wont hurt them.He nodded his head and his brother picked him up out happiness.

The other girl was happy for her own sister and they hugged each other.

''What is this happy family?Let me make it happier,''said one light voice.Everyone turned around and saw beautiful woman coming in.

''Xsara. You came!!!''said Teatind. Her best friend that she didn't see for hundreds of years came to the Naming Ceremony.She was so happy. Xsara was one of the dragons that liked gathering energy. She would stand whole day and gather light energy whole day and when night falls she would go eat and sleep and then again.She even missed their Unification Ceremony because she forgot while gathering energy. Teatind shook her head and laughed.

''I couldn't believe you actually came.''she wanted to hug her friend.But something strange happened.She was hugged by Alcazar and then she saw something completely normal.

Two dragons fighting.But its not the fight for domination ,its more like mating ritual.

It seems these two almost missed the chance and now happily played around.She snickered and the yelled.

''You two fools can date later,today is the Naming Ceremony.Don't destroy the children's most important day.I keep grudges you both know that.''she hissed at them.

The stopped in movement as frozen.Yes she indeed keeps grudges.He winked at him as she gave him bright smile.They turned to children and then she saw that the child is similar to her.Even while everyone was talking and playing she tried to gather even bits of sun energy.She needs to explain her the best way.

''I choose her.''she said while hugging the child.The girl smiled brightly at her Name Giver. Now was time for Teatind to sigh and shake head.Indeed they found each other well.

This was special.Two of old dragons came to the Naming Ceremony.It is an honor. But at that moment they heard more voices coming.It seems half of dragon elders are still outside.

They came out and about two dozen of dragons stood in front of the two children and commented.

''I will take boy.His pearl seemed to have already being compressing his pearl.How is this possible.Usually it is only possible after Aging Ceremony.''he said.''This pup seems to have found his way to gather energy.I would be honored to become his Name Giver.''Others nodded.But the child had the choice.They can only offer themselves.

Then they heard ancient voice.

''What are you doing here.Let me see. Ohhh. Nice seedling niceee.I want this one.''He pointed at the girl. Alcazar and Teatind shook there heads.

''We already promised that the Name Giver for the girl will be our son.''they said to the man .

''Its still her choice.''he said while looking quite interested at the girl.He saw small leave on her shoulders and wanted to take it away but in that moment one hand held his whole arm.

''Mine!''said the voice...
