Devoid of Faith - Continued
Sir James Hawk woke up suddenly to the jerking of his house.
Pictures were falling off the walls and a vase crashed to the ground,
shattering into several pieces. The shaking stopped and he ran his
hand through his short red hair." Stupid Earthquakes," he said as he
got out of his bed. He walked over to his desk where a new letter was
waiting for him. He sat down on his large chair opening the desk's
drawer. He took out a golden letter opener with a diamond on the
bottom.
He opened the letter and took out the note. He placed the letter
opener back in the drawer and put on his glasses. He looked down at
the letter.
"Hawk," he started. "Come quickly, blah, blah, blah..." He put down
the letter.
"Spike, Mystica needs us again," he yelled. A small green dragon with
gold spikes flew into the room. He landed on Hawk's shoulder as Hawk
got up. He walked over to a large wall to the right side of his bed.
Hawk didn't scare easily, however, he was filled with apprehension
after reading Mystica's letter. He had fought hoards of the falcon
men known as Raven and had taken out dragons without being scared.
But Mystica's tone had really gotten to him. She was usually neat
when she wrote him letter and she always signed her name. She only
used her Rune when she was being secretive. He pulled a candle and
the wall in front of him lifted up. Inside was a complete set of
black and gold armor. He pulled out a small, doll sized set of armor
and gave to his little dragon. He put it in his mouth and flew to
the bed that Hawk had just vacated. Hawk pulled out his armor and
placed it on the bed.
"Hawk, where are you going?" asked a young girl in the doorway.
He looked up at a red head with snow, white skin. She was dressed
in a white skirt with small shoes.
"Mystica needs me, I am going to help her," he answered. He put on
his breastplate and took out his long silver sword. She lowered her
head fearing that Hawk would get hurt. He finished putting on his
armor as he attached the sword to his suit. He walked up to the girl
as she looked up.
"Don't worry, I will be back." he assured her. He walked out the door
with Spike following him. The small dragon was covered with gold
armor, which shone in the sun. As they were heading down the stairs
the young girl ran down the stairs.
"I coming with you," she said. Hawk turned around and look into her
face. He could tell from her expression that she was coming no
matter what he said.
"It is going to be very dangerous," he said.
"I don't care, even you need help sometimes," she said.
He gave her a wide smile. He walked over to a wall and pulled
another candle and the wall went up. Inside was white armor,
which looked very much like his. It was smaller in size and the
breastplate was built for a girl. He took it out of the wall,
breaking its long sleep, and gave it to the girl.
"I was going to give you this later, when you were older, but I
think you should have it now," said Hawk. She jumped up and hugged
him, grabbing the armor and running into her room. While she was gone,
Hawk walked into the closet and took out a box. It was about three feet
long and a foot wide. He opened it and then shut it as the girl
walked out of her room.
"How does it look?" she asked. Her voice was messed up; the face
piece of the helmet was still down. Hawk walked up to her and lifted
up the face piece looking into her blue eyes.
"It looks fine Rinoa, but now you need a sword," he said. He walked
up to the box and reopened it. He took out a 3-foot long sword. Its
handle was made out of two white wings and a gold handle. He put the
tip over his left arm and gave it to her. She picked it up and smiled,
her face lighting up with happiness.
"Now lets go, Mystica needs us at her house," said Hawk. She put her
sword in its scabbard as the three companions walked out into the
front yard. Hawk took out a large key and locked the door to his
large house. Spike flew out in front of the two, landing on the soft,
green grass.
"We need a ride, Spike," said Hawk. The small, green flying iguana
started to roar. It started to grow, its wings and body getting
larger. His roar got louder causing Rinoa to cover her ears.
"I am Spike, the Green Dragon of Mylar," he yelled as he looked down
to Hawk. Hawk was shaking his head as he and Rinoa walked up his tail
and onto his back.
"Hang on Rinoa, this is going to be a bumpy ride," he warned.
They both grabbed onto one of Spike's golden spikes as he flapped
his wings. The trees and grass around the house started to wave
wildly as Spike lifted into the air.
"To Lyman, Spike." he ordered. The Dragon roared once again as
he flew away, heading for the town of Lyman.
