The Witch and the Dragon Clan

CHAPTER 6

　　I just stayed unmoved, not knowing what to do.

　　"This calls for celebration." Mrs Hardy yelled.

　　Everyone yells in agreement with Mrs Hardy, shouts of happiness could be heard from all corners.

　　I just stood in the middle of it so confused.

　　"I don't think this means anything. I have never exhibited any sign of magic, in my whole life." I said to no one in particular.

　　I just wish I will wake up and see that this is all nothing but a dream, at this point I could become as crazy as them. I would definitely need therapist after all this madness.

　　Blue eyes father placed a hand on my shoulder, "That doesn't mean a thing Ana, sometimes magic takes times to show itself. Your magic might just be waiting for the right time, that's all. Anyway, this belong to you." He hands over the staff to me and I took it from him. The staff glows for a little while then stops.

　　"Miss Anastasia! Miss Anastasia are you awake! Miss Anastasia!!" I groaned on opening my eyes, who the heck is yelling and banging on my door at such an early hour in the morning.

　　Staring at the door made me realize that it wasn't actually my room door, and neither is the room am sleeping in. Where the f**k am I? And why in the world is my head banging? Did I drink?

　　I stood up from the bed, staggered over to the door and then opened it for whoever is knocking. Mrs Hardy!! Why is she here. Ohh my God, how could I have forgotten that I am in the house of mad people that actually believe i am a witch who would save them from their dragon nonsense. Yup, I totally forgot.

　　"You must have had a hangover from last night. Take this, it would help." She stretches a bowl to me, the content of the bowl looks like tea, but I'm not so sure.

　　I stared at the bowl thoughtfully, wondering if I should drink it.

　　"If we were going to poison you, I believe we would have done that yesterday during the party." She shakes her head.

　　I smiled then drank the whole content of the bowl in one goal. "f**k! That's bitter." I spat out handing over the empty bowl back to her.

　　"Yeah it it, but it will help with your hangover. Anyway, come with me." She said already walking away. I followed her quickly.

　　"Where are we going?"

　　"Just be patient, you would see." She grins at me, then continued walking.

　　We walked to the entrance of the mansion, with her hands on the doorknob she asked... "So Anastasia, are you ready to be amazed?"

　　"Okay... I guess I am."

　　She smiled with so much enthusiasm, then swings the doors open.

　　I couldn't move, it was like time stopped flowing, my eyes was bigger, unconsciously I had to pinch myself.

　　"Is either I'm going crazy, or there's a real bunch of dragons right before my eyes."

　　"You are definitely not crazy, and neither are you dreaming. What you are seeing right now, is all real." Mrs Hardy whispered in my ear, I am at loss for words. I don't know what to say.

　　"Don't you want to say hi, let's go closer." Mrs Hardy said smiling. She grabs my hand and lead me to the field.

　　She stops in front of a really old dragon, like really old... I don't need anyone to tell me this particular dragon is great-gran. "I thought you would have fainted, the ones before you did faint even though they already knew about magic. And you that didn't believe a thing about magic, is still standing." He said weekly.

　　"You can actually talk." I exclaimed in surprise.

　　"Yes of course, I'm still a human." He chuckled. If I am to understand dragon face, I can tell he is trying to smile or he is already smiling.

　　"Yeah, I guess so." I agreed, staring at his skin with so much wonder, the scale... and how they fold is such an amazement to me.

　　"So... the others before me, knew they were witches and wizard already. They knew about magic?" I ask, playing what he had said earlier in my head. *the ones before you did faint even though, they already knew about magic*

　　"Yes. You are the only descendants of Arkalis that doesn't know about magic. Although we did meet descendants that doesn't have an ounce of magic, but they knew magic was real." Mrs Hardy explained.

　　"Hmm, but I just don't get it. Why is it that none of my relatives ever came for me or my parents? Since they all had magic, they could at least have track me down. Why was I even abandoned infront of an orphanage." I felt sad and angry that no one ever came for me during my stay in the orphanage.

　　Didn't they like me?

　　I can't seem to think of any reason they would have left me to suffer in an orphanage.

　　"I would have love to say something, but I think it's better you hear it from your aunt and uncle." Mrs Hardy said. I stared at her confused and shocked, "My uncle and aunties?"

　　"Yes, you would be meeting with them very soon. But for now, I think there's a certain blue eye dragon waiting for you over there." She points at a dragon a little bit far from us. Just the eyes alone, tells me who the dragon is. Blue eyes.
