Chapter 1
Aniki was a girl of the age of 14 with light blonde, brown hair and light blue eyes that shown with happiness. She was tall and wore a brown leather outfit, ranchers’ cloths, and wore them every day not caring how she really looked, though she was very pretty for her age. Tough looks can be deceiving, for she was a trickster child. She would always pull other girls hair just for fun. Steel chickens to free them, and when her Mother asked her to get to town and not stop by the Baker Ursula’s house she always did.
“Aniki how are you? You are not her because your mother has tolled you other whys!?” Asked Ursula when Aniki came in the door. Ursula was tall, looking around her 20s, young, wise, and the best cookie backer in town! She had shining black hair that was short, which was only long in the front. With her dark purple dress like cloths, high boots and a low cut top. She wore funny looking gloves with rings on her fingers, and a cape thing attached to her skirt. She always looked over her square shaped glasses that she wore to read, in other words all the time. She didn’t smile much but was very friendly. She always seemed distant and away, in her eyes you could see something but yet it was unknown. Every one thought she was strange, but Aniki wouldn’t stay away.
“Come in before some one see, and has a good chance to tell your mother. Now what can I give you for this unexpected visit?” Ursula jested knowing full well why Aniki had come.
“More stories please that is what I…. Look Jacob and his old mule right out side… what ever well as I was saying. The Slexias they are what interest me the most. Please tell me more about them?”
Ursula chuckle “Aniki you have heard all about them and no dough have memorized them all, but wait let me think……….” as she started to pace the room. She suddenly went to a small book lying next to her bed. Flipped though a couple of pages the stopped suddenly at one. Quickly glancing through it snapping it shut and again placing it down.
“I got a story for you; you asked me about…… 6 years ago. Do you remember?” She said with a hint of wanting in her eye.
“Ursula!? I have asked of so many questions thought the years I have forgotten all of them. Explicitly since 8 years of year’s gone bye!”
“Of course, but 8 years seems like nothing to me now… The one question the ancient story, of the first Slexias, and how the power spread to others. This I have wanted to tell you for some time. Let’s see this happened all the way back in the golden age when evil first entered our world. Then Dragons where every where people used them for army and other things, Elf disliked the dragons, but still helped the humans. Then the evil came, enslaved the world none could stop it, the elves flee before they died. Humans stayed and became slaves and were killed. Lord Yacob the last of the lords free stood alone with 20 thousand men and about 1 hundred dragons. He was completely out numbered. The enemy had, 2000 times the numbers,” She posed as if thing back, then she looked out the window and said. “Why if it isn’t Jacob and his mule, now I’ve see him every where these days, all ways pops up at the weirdest times…Oh yes back to the story. Well the battle was an ok battle, they, Lord Yacob men, held there own for some time then……… well after that, all them stared dieing, Lord Yacob was laying next to the youngest and only dragon left, Lord Yacob was dieing of blood loss. He asked the dragon, to run and save his people, he knew this was all for not. Then the dragon cut himself on the arm, and used his blood and healing powers to save the lord, but with the power of dragon blood going through his veins, well he and the dragon worked together with magic, dragon fire and power and saved, the world as we know it.” “ He waited for his son to gain the gift as well, but it never came to be, A Slexias has never mixed, and Lord Yacob got his power after his son was born. The Slexias had no time for love they need to save the world, or there lands. Going on…When he died they burnt his body so the ashes would fly on the winds to other lands, from that day on if a dragon and a child were born at the exact moment they would fuse together to become a Slexias, but the dragon gets the last say. The dragon, may chose if the child has the power gift, and no one knows how a Slexias, get there powers besides that they were bon with a dragon. If you didn’t want a Slexias you just tell the dragon it was a bad person and it would believe.” Again Ursula looked away; she seemed far away like thinking back when something happened. She would think about the moment, often and forget about the present, and then answered Aniki.
“Aniki, you need to return to your house this instant. This story must wait; we have more important maters to see to, please hurry.” Suddenly changing her tone of voice and posture, something had upset her.
“Ursula, what are you taking about? Why do I half to go?”
“Go now! Please, we will talk later.” Her eye looked sad, lost and lonely. With out delay Aniki ran out leaving Ursula’s house, running the little way to the country road that led to the ranch. Half way to the ranch she saw smoke in the distance, with horror she ran to the ranch, and as she expected there place was burned down, all the cow dead and, she couldn’t think of her parents.
There was a note on her fathers fence, with the Emperor’s stamped, stamped upon it. Thus reading:
This home has been found guilty of plotting against the Emperor himself, with upholding ancient rituals and a _______ here were we may not say, for safety of none left. Here that all found associated with this family will be hunted down and destroyed, or what ever punishment goes with the crime. Any valuable, you had in there possession we are not responsible for, and am greatly sorry for your incontinence.

Scaruto, Caption of His Majesty’s Secret Guard.
Pre Signed,
Lord, Emperor, Domeanouse.
“Lord Domeanouse?” Aniki shook in fear. Lord Domeanouse had become Lord of Catanit, the land were they lived, about over 2 thousand years ago. No one knew how he had lived so long many guess its use of magic. He has been an evil, black, dark Emperor, who has brought hard ship. “You’ll….. Ah… you’ll pay for this you……” Aniki fell to her knees. Ursula, had always disliked him, and when ever his name was brought up, she got really angry. She had also said something about him being the only Slexias, using his power to kill every other Slexias, and to take control of the country, the few dragons left, and aliment power.
“Ursula….” Aniki got up, turning, running back to town, tears falling from her eyes as she ran. She ran back to the bakery she had known and grew to love. Coming up to the town, she saw blazes of fire every where. She stood there no able to move, starting in aw at the fire.
“Aniki watch out” A woman yell, as Aniki looked up a beam from a house was about to fall on her. She lifted up her arms above her head to shield herself, but it was going to hit her. Just then a body flung itself at Aniki throwing her out of the way as the beam hit the ground with a crash. Aniki looked up to see Ursula, burnt, scratched up, on top of her, holding the flames away from Aniki.
“Ursula….” Aniki started, as she started to cry. Ursula picked herself up and helped Aniki up. Aniki looked up at her then grabbed her in a hugging way crying not wanting to let go.
“We need to get out of here, and then we may have time to show emotions.” Aniki looked up at Ursula, as always she was calm, and wise, she nodded her head, as she followed Ursula out of the town.
