AN: argg! Sorry for the forever update! I had school stuff, then a vacation, then a bad grade and no electronics, and many other things preventing this from being posted. Anyway, you don't want to hear excuses, read the next (extra long) chapter.
Blinx landed on the ground and turned around, ready to face the sweepers who were going to come through the gate. But to his surprise the gate was closing! He thought for a second and figured that that they must have shut off all the time gates so if there were any more strange time monsters, they wouldn't escape. His pondering was interrupted by a giggling noise. He spun around, but there was no one there. He heard the noise again and turned towards a pile of rocks. Sitting on top of them was a strange silver time dragon that looked like the form he was in now.
"Who are you?" he questioned. The silver time dragon only giggled again and gestured with her tail.
"Follow me." She laughed at Blinx's expression.
"What, you thought all time monsters were boys?"
The baffled time sweeper followed the dragon as she ran lightly across the ground. When she came to a large pile of rocks she jumped on top and waited for Blinx to catch up. She smiled at the sight of the panting sweeper.
"If you could keep up with me, I guess you you're faster then you look."
Blinx looked at the silver dragon. "Who are you?" he panted
She smiled. "My name is Iyasu. And you, Blinx, are a time sweeper hopelessly out of his element."
His head shot up. "How do you know my name?"
She smiled again. "I know more about you than you think."
Blinx glared at her. Ok, she says she knows all about me, how about this. "What was that spiritual time dragon in the time core?"
Iyasu merely grinned. "That wasn't a real Drakeon. It was raw time energy that awakened your power."
Blinx cocked his head. "What power? What's a Drakeon?"
She smiled. I'm really getting annoyed by that 'I know something you don't grin'. Blinx thought
"I'll answer your last question first. Drakeons are the proper name for our spices. The only names you got right are the Spikers, Kerofish, and Octoballoon. The creatures you call 'speed monsters' are Zippers. Demon monsters are Deromds, Skeleton monsters are Skeltros, Multiplying Lizards are Metrlizts, and Flying lizards are Orbrinds."
Blinx looked at her in confusion. "What about the time monsters from world B1Q64?"
Iyasu replied, "They were anomalies created by the increased amount of time energy. And to answer the question I know you are going to ask, we look different from other Drakeons because we are older"
Blinx glared at her. "Ok then, what was that you mentioned about my 'power'?"
She smiled at him. "I'll tell you," Blinx sighed in relief. "After you learn the basic necessities of a Drakeon." He growled. This was going to be a long day.
"Again"
Blinx growled as he attacked the dummy Iyasu was controlling for the billionth time. He glanced up at her. "Why am I doing this again?"
She sighed and threw down the ropes she was controlling the dummy with.
"If the Tom-Toms come looking for time monsters to poach, you need a way to defend yourself. Also, incase you didn't notice, your Sweeper friends are going to attack you to."
Blinx looked repulsed. He glanced at the dummy, which he had been repeatedly biting and slashing at. "I'm not going to kill my friends!"
Iyasu sighed. "It wont kill them, just send them back to Sweeper hub. When Sweepers transport using time portals, only their spiritual essence is transported…" she trailed off, seeing that Blinx was lost.
"In laments terms, when Sweepers are critically injured, they are instantly transported back to the Sweeper hub. The same thing goes for time monsters. It's painful thou, I wouldn't suggest it as a travel method."
Blinx looked at Iyasu. "And where, pray tell, is the time monster hub?"
She thought for a second. "Mostly it was near to where the monster was defeated. But sometime they are sent to the main hub, witch is the realm where we are now."
Blinx nodded, satisfied with that answer. "Now what about those powers you mentioned?" he said excitedly.
Iyasu chuckled. "All in good time. You still have one more Drakeon talent to master, flying."
Blinx turned his head to look at the pair of wings on his back.
Iyasu chuckled. "What, you thought those were just for decoration? Try flapping them."
Blinx tried, her really did. But the best he could do was making his wing tremble a bit. He sighed, "It's useless."
Iyasu shook her head. "All Drakeons can fly. You just need a little push" she got an evil smile on her face. "Follow me."
Feeling slightly nervous, Blinx did as he was told. Iyasu lead him to a cliff side. He looked over the edge and gulped. "That's a long way down Iyasu, are you shore it sa- oof!" Blinx grunted as he was pushed from behind. Stumbling for his balance, he fell over the edge.
AN: oh nos! Blinx was pushed of the edge! What will happen next…
I will try to update on a monthly basis at the very least.
