Capítulo 5: Hatchling part 3
The flames in the hearth moved and crackled softly. They almost seemed to move sluggishly. Red and gold light emiting their soft glow across the walls and floor.
( The salamanders always crawled into the hearth?) I wondered. ( Perhaps I wont die? What did that reaper say?... I have a fire attribute? Would fire hurt me or no?) I tentatively reached out a claw for the flames. The only thing I felt as the fire coated my claws was a slight, comforting, warmth.
I slowly continued forward as the flames continued to coat me and make me nice and toasty. I couldn't help but feel nice and drousy. I continued into the hot coals as though it was a warm bath. The coals shifted like sand on a beach. Finally I turned and laid in the bed of the flames. To be honest, it was like laying on the softest bed in the world.
The Girl lifted her head and looked toward the cushion where she put me only to find me gone. She looked left, then right. She finally noticed me comfortably in the flames looking at her. " You are one odd lizard. Why would you run from the fire, then lay in it after i find you? You make no sense. Sigh.... whatever. I've got bigger things to worry about. What do I tell father?" she says quietly.
She starts tapping her chin then abruptly stands up. She grabs the fireplace tongs from the stand close by and grabs me out of the fire with them. But not before I hear a quiet mechanical voice say [Self Ignition Ability gained"]
(What the heck was that!?!) I think as the girl pulls me out of the fireplace. One problem. I'm still on fire. I still feel nice and warm, but i feel myself getting more tired the longer the flames burn. The girl stares at me in the tongs and then dunks me in a bowl of water not far from her bed.
I give a garbled hiss at the sudden cold. ( What the Hell!!!!!) She lifts me out of the water and says " I can't have you burning the mansion to the ground." She walks over to a table in the corner of the room. I didnt really notice it before but it looked like it was made of black stone. She quickly flops me onto it.
As I try to right myself and get back to where I can move glowing liquid metal comes out of the cracks on the table. In seconds it surrounds me in a cage. After a minute or so the metal stops glowing and seems to harden. The Girl bends over slightly to pick up the cage which detaches from the stone as though they were never together to begin with. She looks at me within the cage with a saddened look on her face. " Time to introduce you to the family"
