The Dream and Transfiguration

"Huh, what is this?" Anastasius woke up but he was not at the Hospital. He looked around and saw that he was covered by a dense forest. "Where am I? Blake?! Doctor?!" Anastasius shouted as he walked around the forest. But it seems that Anastasius just walked in a certain path as if something was pulling him to go that direction. Anastasius keeps looking around as if something was watching him. "Hello! anybody there" He called out but all that answered were the constant eerie chirping of the cicada."Roar!!" A ferocious sound entered Anastasius's ear this made him cower and hide behind a tree."Who are you! You are not from my descendants" A gnarly voice sounded in Anastasius's head. This voice sounded like a dreadful monster who had devoured anything on his path. Anastasius was so scared as he now trembling on the spot his knees were shaking so bad that in just a slight push he can topple down to the ground. "Come here boy show me your face!!" The dreadful voice resounded again as Anastasius suddenly felt a strange force grappled into him. "AHHHH!" Anastasius shouted in fear as he was dragged for a couple of kilometers in a span of seconds. "How is this possible a human managed to survive the density of my gene!" The voice loudly said like he was mocking Anastasius. Anastasius looked around as he wants to find the source of that voice. "AGHH!" Anastasius shouted because when he turned around he saw a creature so big he looked like an ant in comparison. The creature paid no mind in Anastasius's scared stature as it spoked again. "Tell me boy how did you manage to retrieve my Gene module from my planet? As far as I know, my gene is only passed down to the royal family every millennium." The creature interrogated Anastasius. This made Anastasius even frightened and he tried to back away from the creature. But to his avail, the Creature picked him up with its razor-sharp claws that seem to be able to cut mountains in just one swipe.

"WAAHH!" Anastasius shouted as he was brought up to the eye level of the creature. "Now answer me, boy!" The Creature shouted at the cowering Anastasius. "I don't know Sir all the doctor said the gene he is inserting in my body was of a Draco not the Gene of a mighty creature such as yourself," Anastasius replied while his voice cracked in fright. The creature suddenly widened his sharp and bright eyes it was surprised at the situation and it also can tell that Anastasius was not lying. "I see boy but now I have no choice to give you my powers. But don't fret we will be staying here unless you've mastered everything I intend for you know." The Creature said as it laid Anastasius down onto the ground and hit to lay his head to make an eye to eye contact with Anastasius. "Sir if I may ask how can you do that in this limited time? Won't people will notice if I will be unconscious for far too long." Anastasius asked and reasoned with the creature. "Well boy, I'm not like any other gene I came from a primordial origin. This place I'm inhabiting right now is your Bloodline Glebe or field for short. This is a special place only belonging to individuals that managed to inherit the Gene of a primordial creature such as myself. In this field, we can do everything and anything, time is no concept here because the Bloodline Glebe was created from chaos itself." The Creature said as it showed Anastasius many kinds of bizarre materials.

Anastasius could only look at the creature with amazement and confusion at the same time. He was clearly still processing what happened to him. "I see, Boy you clearly do not understand the gravity of my majesticness" As it stood out of the shadow. Anastasius now clearly saw the Creature he was talking to. What beheld before his sight is a giant dragon was in front of him. The dragon was taller than a mountain. Its scales were bizarre the color was confusing when it touched the light the scales showed to be a mucronate shape but the color is the one that felt off, one look gave off a purple and black hint while also giving a colorless tint when the light doesn't hit it. "You see child I'm a dragon species but actually I'm one of the creatures created when the universe was anew. We are called the Primum Chao." The Creature said as it picked Anastasius and put him in its back. "Woah!" Anastasius said as he was now overlooking the vast forest that goes on for miles. He was amazed at the view and couldn't help but smile. The Dragon stretched its legs and jumped up. Anastasius was startled by the sudden movements and couldn't help but grab at the dragon's scale. "You see boy I'm a creature that is different from the rest because I don't have a definite element of energy in me. So because of this weakness, I learned a long time ago is to copy my opponent's element and its skills alongside it." The dragon said as they were flying about in the forest that suddenly a Draco was manifested in front of them. The Draco looked similar to the Dragon the only big difference is the size because the Draco was only the size of the bus and it has red-colored scales. Making it like an ant was confronting an elephant.

The Draco stood in front of the Dragon shivering and bowing its head as if it did not dare to look at the Dragon's eyes. Anastasius was still bewildered at what is happening to him but still choose to listen to the Dragon not daring to ask any questions. "WRAHH!" The Dragon roared as if it was commanding inside it to wake up. The scales on the Dragon started to change colors from the black and purple ones suddenly to a scarlet and much richer color than the Draco. "SCREECH!!" the Draco also roared as it let out a red color flamed from its mouth. "Watch child as you see my powers are not only used for copying but I also use it to magnify the skill the creature I copied from." The Dragon explained as it also unleashed a large and much more powerful flame from its mouth. The Dragon redirected it to a part of the forest and what happened is that the trees were burned to the ground leaving only a scorching land with molten lava. "Now let us return to the ground for our introduction." The Dragon said as it now turned around and returned to the same spot where they left off in just a matter of seconds. "Now boy tell me your name. We have been talking for quite a while now but I clearly don't know any humans except for one person and the rest is just from my kind." The creature said as it now laid down again and brought Anastasius in front of him.

"Sir my name is Anastasius meaning rebirth and a new beginning. I don't have a family I'm an orphan my parents disappeared when I was young. But it's ok because what I have left is a brother that even so we may not be blood-related we sure feel like we do." Anastasius said while smiling what made the dragon admire Anastasius is that even if the fact he was an orphan but still he has the guts to smile that radiant. "I see boy I mean Anastasius. But don't fret because I also know that kind of feeling being born from chaos and not knowing how you came to birth and who birthed you. But enough of that I am Manus Dextra born from the chaos and the Ancestor of the Dragorians. " The Dragon Introduced himself. After Manus, the Dragon introduced himself Anastasius suddenly felt a warm and overwhelming feeling enveloped him. "What is this?" Anastasius asked as he was feeling the bountiful energy slowly engulf him. "This boy is the first stage of your Gene Alteration. This is the Xiantian stage where you would develop your body to let it get accustomed to the Gene. And this is only the fundamental stage where the gene will transform your body." The dragon explained as Anastasius is still was being covered by unknown energy slowly being absorbed into him.

"What will happen when I finish this stage, sir?" Anastasius asked as he was now sitting on the ground in a sitting position trying to feel and manage the energy flowing into him. "Well boy after your body has been adjusted by the gene this is where you'll begin absorbing elemental energy into you so that you can use skills like the Draco that breathed fire earlier. And after that, if you're really a prodigy you may use a special technique of transforming yourself into a dragon like my form right now." Manus said as Anastasius observe that energy was now flowing out of Manus and slowly transforming its body. "But of course boy my gene is different I belong to nothingness and I'm nothingness itself it means I can transform myself into any being I want if I manage to get a high purity sample of its blood." Manus bragged as he was now a Draco like the one they saw earlier. "But since you are now only in the Xiantian stage I would only be in this Draco form for a while because if I return to my full form your body cannot handle it and you'll die," Manus said as he now touched Anastasius hand and pricking him in the pointer finger of his right hand. "Ouch!" Anastasius said as now there was blood on his finger. But Manus didn't pay attention to him and just magically picked up a dropped of blood from Anastasius's finger and let float up in the air in front of him. But Manus wasn't finished just yet as now he took one of its claws and also pricked himself into the hand. Now Manus's blood was also magically picked up and converge with Anastasius blood.

"SZSZSSZS!" Another unbelievable thing that happened when the blood converges is just started vaporizing and formed a black-like fog surrounding the two of them. "This boy will be our Blood Bond this will connect you to your Bloodline Glebe here and You can access it here while also you can communicate telepathically with me. Manus said as now the black fog formed a wristband-like shape in Anastasius's arm and it imprinted it to his wrist like a tattoo. "AH!" Anastasius felt like a scorching feeling was happening to him in his wrist. "Don't worry boy as this is a very crucial part of your Gene alteration and everyone who had to undergo this treatment is now and can be called warriors," Manus said as Anastasius bit his lips trying to endure the pain. 'Endure this Anastasius remember your promise and also your mission that someday you'll uncover your parents and ask them why did they abandon you!' He thought in his head as he was now clenching his knuckles so hard that his hands are bleeding. 'This boy is so strong managing to stay awake for this long. Normal humans may already be passed out at this time. But I wonder who placed my Gene into the boy and how did the boy manage to live through. My Genes are only compatible with Royal Dragorians because they are the only ones that have a strong enough body to withstand my blood. But this boy whose human origin manages to survive at this point also now feel intimated by my mere presence.' Manus thought to himself as he now that Anastasius manage to endure the blood imprint and now laying there in the ground passed out.
