A rogue safes a firefly

As night fell, the second group appeared and instead of exploring, they were hunting now. As they were hunting they left all the other animals alone because their target was Marika.

They wanted to hunt and kill the one who was responsible for the deaths of their comrades.

Marika had anticipated that much and was stalking them.

She picked them of one by one unseen and undetected.

But when she was hunting the last 2 people she got hit by a dart.

Marika noticed but the sedative didn't have much effect on her, she let out a loud roar to alert Alex and Regina.

They shot 5 more darts and it finally started to kick in.

Marika was stumbling and tried to get away.

When she finally went down, the man who wanted to kill her found her and had a good look of her before they killed her.

"What is it?"

"It's not a normal reptile that's for sure, look it has wings."

"So it can fly?"

"No…not yet at least."

"But if it can't fly just yet…then…"

"Shit this is a baby we need to kill it and get out of here before it's parents come."

Just before they could strike at Marika, Khai who looked bigger then Marika appeared and tacked the man who wanted to stab her.

Khai let out a loud roar to notify he had found Marika.

The other man looked at Khai and was scared out of his wits "Sh*t, we are so screwed right now the parent showed up."

The man who got tackled came to his senses and saw Khai protecting Marika, he hissed and roared at them.

"Fuck there are more of them."

The man had a good look of Khai "It's not the parent, it's a juvenile, but we are indeed screwed if he manage to get a hold of us because he can fly."

"But we don't have enough tranquilizers to take him down or potential the parents."

"It will take 12 to get him down and 24 to get a parent down. And we don't have any life ammo with us either!"

Khai kept up his guard and growled and hissed at them.

Not long after two giant dragons decedent and landed.

Regina and Alex saw Marika down and had 6 darts in her body.

Regina told Alex to guard Marika while she and Khai would kill them.

Regina then turned to the man and let out a loud roar, and her eyes told them if they even so much as lift a finger they are dead.

The scared man ask his leader "Is that the father?"

"Ar you stupid, the one who is guarding the baby is the father, the one who will kill us is the mother. They say all man should fear a woman's fury, but pray to survive a mothers wrath."

Alex picked up Marika and carried her away.

Regina told Khai to get the leader while she would take down the scared little wimp.

Khai nodded and they both killed the two who had fell to the ground and accepted that they would not live to tell the tale.

When Alex arrived he saw Richard and Genus waiting.

He put Marika down and changed back.

Genus saw the amount of darts in her body and couldn't believe what he saw.

"She took 6 of them before she went down!?"

Genus took one out and told them it was an anesthetic but he couldn't tell how long she would be out because he has no information on these type of thing from the human world.

Richard than asked, "Can you break it down and see what it's made of? I'll call Vincent and see if he knows anything."

Genus went to work right away and had all the components of the anesthetic, Richard then called Vincent and Genus showed it to him.

"Hum… that's pretty new and not yet allowed to be use on animals."

"But it very weak compared to a dragon anesthetics, how many did they shot her with?"

"Six darts."

Vincent was calculating "You don't have to worry with that amount it wouldn't be even a quarter of a dragon anesthetic."

Genus looked at Marika "Well seeing her size and she still is pretty resistant to anesthetics she will be out of it in less than an hour."

Khai and Regina also arrived and asked how she was.

"She will be up in less than an hour."

"How many were left?" Richard asked Khai.

"There were only two left, mom killed the other 18 people."

Then Khai whispered to Richard "Sister Regina really takes after mom, she was pretty scary when she saw mom down."

"Well than she will be a good mother in the future." Richard smiled.

[Next day]

Richard and Vincent arrived at the beach with the biologist and went over to the group of activist.

One of the activist got angry to see a man in a lab coat and rushed up to them.

"People like you are only interested in destroying nature! And do experiments and kill innocent animals."

Richard stopped the man "He is an biologist, and thanks to him all the captured animals are all still alive."

The activist backed down.

"Listen I don't condone what they are doing just like you, the very soul reason I'm on that ship is to prevent the animals being sold."

"I already filmed the captured animals and explained that most of them are either endangered species and some were thought to be extinct."

"I also film the autopsy of a few dead bodies and notified that they were attacked by a new species of animal that is never seen before."

"Now all we need is to film the forest and the inhabitant animals in their environment and show the world that if this isn't stopped an ecological change could be more severe than they hope for, and that humanity will be held responsible for the extinction for more animals and destroying what they are working on to preserve."

"If this new predator gets of this island than the world will be in danger, because in just two weeks I found evidence it grows very fast. And if it's because we humans started to show up and became their new food source, what do you think will happen when it get off this island and escapes, it could multiply faster than we can use counter measures against it."

"But is it safe to go in to the forest?"

"Well is it safe to walk over the plains of Africa?"

"As long as we don't disturb or agitate any animal we should be safe."

"We need two of you activist to come and join us in this exploration, and I can guarantee your safety." Richard told the group.

A young man raised his hand "I'll join you, I won't panic even in the face of a predator and I'm very skilled in survival."

After the young man volunteered a girl around 18 also raised her hand.

'I have medical knowledge and can help with treatment of any injuries. I possess the knowledge to help humans and animals.'

Richard nodded and waved them over.

"Let's go."

The group left for the forest were Marika and the others were waiting.

As they walked through the forest the biologist and activist stated to make pictures and short clips of the animals they came across they also found a variety of plants and flowers that were thought to be extinct.

Just an hour in there exploration they started to find dead bodies, the biologist examined the bodies and found three different set of teeth marks.

"I don't want to scare you all but we have a problem."

"What is it?" the young man asked

"The new predators, they are way bigger than we can imagine."

"How so?"

The first few bodies were certainly killed by a baby, the last two were killed by a juvenile and one by an adult."

The biologist pulled out a map that showed all the marked spots where the attacks had happened.

"It's wise to treat carefully from here because were in the middle of its territory."

Richard had noticed Marika was stalking them for over half an hour now but she wasn't releasing any killing intent or blood lust so he knew they were fine for now.

As they kept on going they heard the sound of water flowing and reached a river.

They heard a sound of an animals and slowly got closer, there they saw Marika and Khai playing in the water.

They shot a few pictures and short clips.

"No way…" The young man whispered.

The biologist also was stunned.

"This is a major discovery…and now we have proof that the legend about dragons are actually true."

"But doctor if dragons exists why have we never seen them before? They have wings on their backs so they should be able to fly."

"Well would you leave your home, if your house is safe and undisturbed and have enough food?"

"You got a point."

The girl noticed that Marika and Khai had already noticed their presence 'We should be very careful they know we are here.'

"Let's head back, seeing the size of the baby and juvenile I don't want to meet the parents."

Just as they turned around Marika pounced at the biologist to make him fall over.

The man was slightly panicked but the young man told him to calm down his breathing and don't look it in the eyes.

The biologist did wat he was told and Marika now changed her attention to the young man and pounced at him but he evaded her, what in turn made Marika to pounce at him even more.

The young man caught her and then put her down.

"You're a cute little killer that's for sure, but we're not here to damage the forest or intent any harm to you. We wanted to leave so you can have fun with your brother."

Marika than changed her attention back to the biologist who just got up and took him down again.

Richard and Vincent started to laugh.

"It seems to like you a lot."

"That's not funny…do you know that this is very dangerous not only for this dragon but also for me!"

"If the parents see this I could get killed."

Richard then said "Well its parents already saw it all…"

The biologist turned around and saw Alex and Regina behind him together with Khai.

Regina roared at Marika to get off of him.

Marika whimpered and got off from the man, Regina helped the man get up again.

She was calm and roared at Marika again and turned to the man again and pushed him to get back but he was scared stiff.

Richard and the girl slowly walked up to them to get the man, 'He is in shock.'

Regina heard it and roared to tell everybody to leave.

As they left Regina looked at the others who didn't move and were all calm.

She then came close again and let them pet her showing them that she would not hurt them.

The girl and the young man told the biologist to do the same so he could get over his fear and shock.

Regina was calm and the man slowly started to pet her, Regina got a good whiff of his scent and noticed it was familiar.

She started to nuzzle him and the biologist calmed down.

"I will do everything in my power to prevent any harm to your home Regina."

Richard and Vincent looked with suspicious at the man, but didn't show it.

"Why do you call her Regina?" Vincent asked the man.

"Well isn't it fitting to her, she is the queen of this place they all are at the top of the ecosystem here and consider its size I think she is a female. She only kills what threaten her and her children but is calm and just to the people who show no ill will, just like a queen."

The man patted her one last time "We will fight to preserve your home, so take good care of your kids and yourself."

Regina slowly got up and Marika came again pouncing at the biologist and nuzzled him.

Regina picked Marika off from the man and she was carried away while Marika let out chirpy growls as in saying goodbye and come and play again.

Vincent and the others started to laugh.

"What?"

"It sounded like come back again."

'More like let's play again sometime.'

Richard and the others left the forest and went back to beach.

They were welcomed back by the group of activist and saw they were all unharmed.

"How did it go?"

The sowed them pictures and video footage.

'We can't show this to the world, we need to alter it.'

They all agreed to alter the footage and took away the wings.

"Why would you do that for?"

'Don't you think the world will come to this island and start dropping down bombs or start to hunt them down?'

"Well the baby hold a record of 127 death, you think they would try to launch an attack that careless?"

"And besides we have also footage of animal thought to be extinct and complete new species."

"We just have to warn them if the launch any attack on this island the chances for them to migrate to human settlements are highly likely and that we will cause our own extinction if we do that."

"And since they lived on that island and were hidden for so long means they are only a treat to us when we threaten them."

"Now I need to find a way to get all those capture animals of the ship and back to this island."

"Don't worry about that, I'll send a special team to do that tonight, and you guys help out too, you can help free them and lend first aid if any are injured."

Marika and the others were at the edge and listen to their plan.

'Mom do we help them if they get in trouble?'

Marika shook her head 'It's best to let them handle it by themselves. If we join to help them it would be less effective.'

'But we will help them if they got driven in to this forest.'

"Alright mom."

As the night had come The Green Peace Keepers infiltrated the she ship and captured what was left of the people still onboard.

They searched the ship for documents and other information.

When they got down to the lowest deck they saw animals trapped in cages but looked unharmed.

"Somebody really tried his best to keep them safe and healthy."

Let's gather the cages and bring them to the island.

Some animals got stressed when they were moved while other were sitting relatively calm but whimpered or made noise.

The Green Peace Keepers reassured the stressed animals it wouldn't be long and the will be back home.

A few hours had past and they had loaded all the animals on their ship and were heading towards the island.

Everybody helped out to unload the caged animals and the girl who had medical knowledge checked on the animals one by one, 'This is bad, half of them are so stressed it's almost fatal.'

The girl told everybody to free the stressed animals first, they picked up the cages and faced the door's to the forest.

When they were done opening the cages they walked a away so the animals wouldn't feel threatened.

After 15 minutes the first few got out of the cages and ran in to the forest, not long after that the rest also went out of the cage.

Then the group took the empty cages and the other did the same with the last group of animals.

The last animal that was to walk out of his cage was a wolf, but instead of running off, it howled and charged at the group of people.

Marika saw it and rushed from the tree line and tackled the wolf, al thought she was still small she stood defensive in front of the people and hissed at the wolf.

The wolf growled and snarled at her but Marika didn't back down, she kept on hissing to the wolf and whipped her tail up and down.

Marika looked at the wolf and let out her killing intent.

The wolf finally backed down and left for the forest.

Marika saw the biologist and pounced on him what made fall over again.

"Seriously what is it with you and taking me down?"

The man sat up and Marika sat on his lap looking at him all cute.

"You shouldn't be overly friendly to us humans, you have seen there are also bad humans, and some pretend to be good but are actually bad."

Marika looked at the man not really understanding him.

"We are all grateful you saved us but you need to go home to you parent's and sibling."

Marika then got off from his lap and pulled his sleeve.

"I think it's telling you to fallow it." Richard said to the man.

The biologist refused but Marika snatched his glasses and the man got up and fallowed after her.

"Hey give them back!"

After a chase that lasted half an hour Marika finally came to a stop.

Marika let out a chirpy roared to Genus, and Genus saw Marika with a man behind her.

Marika climbed on his shoulders and put the glasses back on his head.

The man saw Genus standing there with a surprised look on his face.

"Genus?"

The biologist then looked at Marika and asked her, "Do you know him?"

Marika nodded.

She jumped down and walked over to Genus and climbed on his shoulder and nuzzled him.

Genus took her from his shoulder and patted her in his arm "So you found my brother Sano, but how did you know he was my brother?"

Marika made a gesture by stroking her nose and then put her little paws against his chest.

"Seriously?"

Marika nodded.

"Do you think you can help him?"

Marika nodded again.

Genus looked at his brother and had a mischievous smile on his face.

"Alright let's start right away."

"What are you going to me?"

"Me? Not much, she is going to do something to you."

"What is she going to do to me?"

"Uhm… she is going to fix your body, after you racked it by saving an island full of creatures and plants."

"You know only somebody with healing magic can do that, and then there is still the problem with my inner energy…"

"Sano, you know very well that I'm the guard of The Guardian of the 3 Worlds, do you think my skills are that poor concerning directing inner energy? Well compared to The Guardian my skills in medicine is a bit lacking and behind her and the medicine the guardian made and thought up is absolute genius."

Sano looked at Marika "Brother are you telling me that little baby in your arms is…"

"Oh technically she isn't a baby…some circumstance made her look like this that's all…"

"Alright, but what is The Azure King doing here in the human world?"

Genus looked at Marika and she nodded.

Genus than pointed at Marika as he said "He is here because of her and suffer somewhat the same as her."

Marika perked up and noticed somebody was coming.

"Sano go back and come back to this place in two weeks' time."

He nodded and left for the group again.

[Two weeks later]

Marika and Richard spend two weeks on the island and Genus came checking on them at the end of the week and then left them alone again.

Both Richard and Marika were back to normal again and the island had been peaceful in the period of two weeks.

Marika was lazing around in the sun.

Suddenly somebody was hanging over her, 'Hey white coat.'

'How are the eggs doing?'

"Everything looks good and it won't be long before they will hatch, Solis and Caelum have confirmed they are phoenix eggs but Solis sensed something from the little chicks inside the eggs."

'Well it doesn't matter as long as they are healthy that's all that matters and if they can't go to The Night World then I'll arrange for somebody to raise them until they can stand on their own two feet.'

'So what happened to your brother to be in his current state?'

"Well…"

'Spill it already.'

"First of all my brother was also kidnapped to that facility where you were…but they didn't take his magic or did any experiments on him."

"They used him…"

'Used him how?'

"My brother can control time, it's not that he can time travel to the far back past or anything."

'So they used him to send me back to the point in time when I was taken.'

Genus nodded.

'They must have really exhaust him a lot of times.'

"Well the reason his body is damaged is because he set back time of an island that was completely destroyed by humans, He restored all plant and animal life and that broke his body because het set it all back by 10 years."

'Wouldn't that affect the whole world?'

Genus shook his head, "It only affect the area where he is in."

Marika sat up 'Well Lenis and Richard should be here soon too, and we let Lenis check if his magic is still intact.'

'If his magic is still good then we can fix his body here, if not we have to force him back to The World of Dark.'

Genus nodded.

'Why don't you go to the beach, your brother should be there by now.'

"Alright…but don't scare Sano too much, his heart is more faint then mine."

Marika laughed 'No promises.'

Marika went one lazing in the sun when she heard "Sweetie I'm back."

Marika opened her eyes and saw Lenis and Richard.

'Alright, let's go.'

Back at the beach Sano and Genus were talking when they suddenly saw an adult dragon came running up to them.

Sano was shocked and fell back when he saw the color of the dragon.

"Is that…the baby from two weeks ago?"

'Well yeah that's me, but have you already forgotten that due to circumstances I was a baby?'

Marika changed to her 7th stage and reached out her hand.

Sano took it and Marika pulled him up and shook it, 'Hello, my name is Marika, my dragon name is Yumaria, you can call me by either one of them, I'm a pack leader of a wolf clan, queen of a country, head of The Founding Green Dragon Clan, Guardian of the 3 World, wife of The Moon King, and mother of 6 adoptive children.'

Sano jaw dropped by hearing all of it.

"Little girl…I think you just short circuit his brain."

Sano snapped back to reality "Genus how could you be so rude as to call the guardian little girl."

'I don't feel offended by it…'

'Do I need to feel offended by it?' As she looked at Genus.

"Not at all, consider you are younger than me by 7 years, and you still behave like an juvenile dragon… isn't it more fitting?"

'I think so too… but white coat we need a nick name for your brother too.'

"Your right, how about mister up tight?"

'Nah that would fit Cinis better.'

Genus and Marika were both in a deep though and seriously thinking about a nick name for Sano.

Richard walked up to Sano "Although they look like best friend, in the beginning it was far from it."

"But let me tell you this in advance, even with all her titles and statuses, she never cared for them she wants to be seen as a person and not the title and status that is sticking on her. As a queen she often mingles with the commoners, but she will not run away from her responsibility."

"I think if you came back to The World of Dark you can see what I mean."

"Plus you should be honored to receive a nick name from her, because your brother was currently the only one she ever gave a nick name." Richard patted his shoulder.

Marika and Genus were done deliberating and looked at Sano

'Firefly.'

"Huh?"

'That's your nick name as of today. Well aren't you one…I mean you are the light that shines in nature to protect it and guard it. What do you think?'

Sano smiled "I like it, little rogue."

Marika laughed 'Very fitting to my personality…I like it.'

Lenis also walked over and saw Sano talking to Marika and Genus, he instantly recognized Sano

"Sano!" Lenis was happy to see him and hugged him.

"Little Len!"

'You know each other?'

"Yeh we were both rescued from that place and we spend our rehabilitation in the same place."

'Sano why do you call him little Len?'

"Well he didn't have a name and calling him hey you or boy… I thought of a temporary name to address him by."

"Plus his characteristics was gentle and mild so I took Len from Lenis."

Marika smiled and then said to Lenis 'Go ahead and tell him your full name and how you got it.'

"Sano… I got my first name granted from His Majesty Richard and I'm now called Lenis, my last name was granted by Queen Yumaria and my last name is Virtus."

Sano smiled at him "It suits you, calm and brave."

"Lenis…did you find the person you were looking for? The one who healed you and repaired your body so you could survive."

"I did, she is standing next to you."

"And she asked me to come here because she needed my help, I never thought it would be you Sano."

Sano had a sad smile on his face "You see Lenis, your friend did something and now his body is broken. If I calculated everything right I won't live any longer than one more moth. But still… I kept my promise to you, to live and do anything to help others and to one day meet with you again. I knew you were in The World of Dark so I would have come and visited you soon anyway."

"Please sister you have to save him, he is my friend."

Lenis felt devastated by his words and started to hug and cry in Marika's arms and Richard patted his head.

"Don't worry… Everything will be fine"

'Lenis…Sano saved a whole island by setting back the time of that place by 10 years. But the back lash of this is that he broke his body and shorten his own life span.'

'If his magic is still intact than I can heal and repair his body.'

'Because I know it was this very island that he saved back then.'

Sano looked at Marika in surprised "How did you know?"

Marika smiled 'That's because of all the plants that are growing here and all the animals that lives here should be extinct, plus there are still some traces left from your magic, and for you to come here to try and save the island by stalling with your research.'

'The day we met, and the story Genus told me about you, I was very certain it was this very island of the story I was told.'

Lenis had calmed down and looked at Marika. 'Lenis can you please have a look at your friends magic? But know this even if it's damaged I will do everything in my power to repair it, even if I need to endure a scolding from everybody. Marika smiled at him.

"Richard patted Marika on the shoulder, "You don't get scolded because repairing magic is practically the same thing as mending it."

Lenis looked at Richard and gave him a hug. "How am I ever going to repay you two for this?"

Richard looked at Marika and she nodded "You don't have to repay us… because we are repaying you for all that you have done for us, you saved our children before, you even saved her from a life treating situation, you helped us out with Marika's broken magic."

"And by telling your story of that place we found out what they did to her and went through before her magic was taken away."

"Lenis remember this, a small action can lead to a bigger truth."

'Lenis have you ever heard; Fate is set in stone and destiny is something you can change.'

Lenis nodded "You can't change your fate, but destiny can be changed by the choices you make."

Marika smiled 'Well I don't believe for one bit that fate can't be changed, because by meeting you again my fate has already changed.'

'And I will also do everything in my power to change Sano's fate.'

Sano listened to the conversation and thought how this girl is willing to fight with everything she has, and make sure that the people who loved her, always be happy and smiling.

Lenis turned around and had a good look at his friend and was somewhat relieved.

"Sano… You have only a few cracks in your magic but it's not broken, it can be fixed. But in order to do that your inner energy needs to be calmed down, it's currently in a state of disarray."

Marika transformed and told everybody to hop on.

"Where are we going?"

'To The Founding Green Dragon Clan.'

Marika arrived with everybody.

Luca walked up to them and saw his sister back to normal.

He gave her a hug but he saw in her eyes she was up to something again "Sis…what kind of crazy plan are you going to carry out this time?"

'It's not as crazy as last time I promise.'

'And besides Richard is going to help together with Genus so I'm not doing this alone.'

"Don't worry Luca, I'll ask Caelum to keep an eye on her and her inner energy."

"Alright, sis if and when Caelum tells you to stop you better listen to him."

'Brother you think I like to endure any rant's and scolding's from you and my children???'

Luca smiled at Marika and patted her head.

Marika then told Sano to fallow them.

When she arrived at a tree in the yard Sano could feel a high amount of natural energy coming from it.

"Is it really alright for me to come to a place like this?"

'What part did you mist in my introduction? I'm the clan head… so yeah it's alright.'

Caelum came over with Lenis "Mom Lenis told me everything…"

'Please… my dear son you're not going to tell me that it's too dangerous and shouldn't do this are you?'

Caelum smiled "No because you should be just fine with your amount of energy, but after your done you need to come with me."

'Please don't tell me Solis is going to rant or something, he sometimes is such a meany to me.'

"Everything is going to be fine mom, I assure you it's nothing like that."

'Alright!'

Marika, Genus and Richard started to formulate their plan of action.

'I heal him up completely, you Genus then start to calm that inner energy of his and Richard you try and repair his magic after Genus is done, and I will support you while your repairing his magic.'

"Sounds good to me."

Marika then told Sano to lay down under the tree and close his eyes and breath calmly.

Sano did what she said an Marika started to heal his body, Genus looked at his brothers body that was recovering but noticed something was off.

Genus rushed over and caught Marika who was hit by a force.

'Genus…your brother never awakened his final stage did he?'

"Huh… that's not possible, I know for a fact he awakened his final stage before he left for the human world."

Marika got up and looked annoyed she then pressed her hand on Sano's chest and starting to release an emends pressure on him.

Richard grabbed Genus and took him away from her, but even then they were both affected by the pressure she released.

"Sweetie could you tone it down just a little?"

'I'm sorry, I'm still not in full control over it when I'm angry or agitated.'

Marika lowered it and Richard and Genus could breathe again.

"It's alright little girl, these things take time and practice"

Marika got Sano's dragon under control again and finished up her healing.

When she was done she told Genus to stabilize his inner energy 'Don't worry about that little thing inside him, I told him if he acts up one more time I would hurt him badly.'

Genus walked over and started to calm down his inner energy and the flow stabilize very quick.

Now it was Richard's turn and he started to concentrated and worked on the magic together with Marika after 15 minutes they were done and all sighed.

Marika woke up Sano and told him everything was fine now and his body was as good as new.

'Uhm Sano, I hate to break it to you but you have to undergo your final awakening again.'

'To be honest here, the reason your body broke the way it did is because not only did you set back the time of that island but also a part of your own body.'

"That's fine, every action has consequences and if I have to awaken my final stage again then I consider all of this a small price I had to pay."

"Because you all have saved me from death and I'm grateful for that."

"I guess I have to go back home and do my awakening then."

Marika smiled 'Well for now your out of danger and you don't have to rush your final awakening, because I told your dragon to shut up and behave or else I would hurt him. So I gave you some extra time here in the human world and you can go back home if you know your island is save for sure.'

"Thank you little rogue."

Marika shook her head, 'It's only natural to help out a friend…firefly.'

Sano and Marika started to laugh.

Lenis ran up to Marika and hugged her.

"Thank you sister, for saving my friend."

Marika patted his head 'Sure thing little brother.'

'Lenis why don't you show Sano around and catch up with him.'

Lenis nodded and pulled Sano away.

Marika looked at Genus and Richard 'Are you two alright?'

"Yeh I just need to rest a bit." Genus answered.

"You go with Caelum, we will take a rest inside."

Marika nodded.

'Let's go Caelum.'

Caelum and Marika came in to the room where Solis was, "Mom!"

Marika got a hug attack from Solis.

'Your mom is back to normal for the most part.'

"What do you mean?" Caelum asked her.

'Well it's not all that bad but I aged 5 years and 3 quarters a week and my mentality lagged behind so I can act like a child sometimes, but Genus said that it wouldn't last long, maybe a few weeks at most.'

"It's alright mom, you always had a childlike behavior sometimes."

'Your right… that's why I'm so lovable.'

Marika and her children were laughing.

'Genus told me you sensed something from the little once in the eggs.'

"That's right, they are fire phoenixes and their parents are originally are form The World of Night and The World of Light."

"One of them contains a red flame the other a blue flame"

'Is that bad?'

"No…it's just very unusual since most phoenixes don't hold any flame or fire ability now a days."

"These little once are more close related to our ancestors."

'Do you think that after they hatched they could stay in The Night World until they can stand on their own?'

"That shouldn't be a problem, but I think it's best that they live out their life's in the human world."

Marika nodded 'I will bring them to the mansion until they have grown their feather coats and then let them stay up in Mystic Mountain, I think that's the best place for them and Sophos can teach them.'

'When do you think they will hatch?'

"Right about now."

Suddenly a cracking sound was heard and the three of them were watching the little birds hatch.
