The Familia Guardian

Alfonso

Pierdodevoto stood there smiling as Eric stood between us, the feeling of comfort and safety was flowing to me so strongly I was curious as to why my best friend was so aggressive about the whole situation. The god only seemed amused by it but didn't really seem to notice the hostility but his patience seemed to be growing as he looked at us, I took a step forward gently touching Eric's shoulder so that he would calm down. I took the god's hand taking a knee before the god to show my respect.

"Greeting my lord we were unaware this was your domain I apologize for stepping in it"

"There was no disrespect my child, your lover simply wanted to protect you though you have arrived earlier than I had intended this dungeon is not ready yet nor are you ready for what will be found here. Why did you two come here"

Pierdodevoto pulled me up placing me next to Eric I could feel the heat in my face as he seemed to be looking in the other direction. the dragons eyes seemed to be watching the both of us before they seemed to scene the rest of the room they moved back towards us, their eyes holding a great deal of intellect as they watched us. The god patted one of there necks the same way he would a trusted companion.

"What do you mean neither this place or Alfonso are ready" Eric spoke still seemed to stand a little in front of me.

"I mean that it isn't safe for him to be here yet. He hasn't awoken yet and as such he doesn't have the ability to deal with this place, come back in a month's time and it will be ready"

With a wave of his hand and a small shine of golden light, Pierdodevoto had teleported us outside of the gate. Several voices could be heard behind us as i turned I saw my father several other police officer, fire fighters and what looked like three hunters from one of the guilds. I could see Eric parents and older sibling faces as our parents face looked at up a look of relief coming over there faces as they rushed us pulling the two of us into hugs. I couldn't make out what they were saying between the anger concern and outright panic coming from everyone.

"Alright alright everyone calm down and let me talk to these children!" The taller of the two hunters spoke up

Our parents stepped back the energy from the hunter making them flinch, to my annoyance the hunter's energy was clearly in his eyes meaning he used it on our parents. I could see the fear in Eric's parent's face while my own father hid his fear on his face but not in his eyes. My father stood between us resisting the command from the hunter.

"look here my son just got out-" his voice was cut off as the hunter pushed him to the side.

"Now then kids you two are in trouble! You went-"

"Hey don't use your powers on my dad asshole!" I pushed the hunter back a look of shock on his face.

"Enough" the female hunter spoke as she took a few steps forward. The one in front of me took a step back as the apparent leader took a step forward. She was fairly short but had a strong aura around her body that was intimidating, a few gray hairs lined her brown hair but otherwise she seemed to be very young. Her blue eyes seemed to be piercing into my soul.

"Greetings I am Agent Sera I have a few questions for you two and your parents"

She had a gentler smile and wasn't using her powers. Agent Sera motioned for us to follow her to a large tent the other two agents followed behind us. My dad stayed close to me while Eric parents seemed more worried about the whole situation they still remained close to their son, Mrs. Cerveny cluched her son's arm tightly while Mr. Cerveny stayed right by his son. As we entered the tent Sera waved her hands a brown energy flowed out as chairs and a table appeared.

"Alright fine ask away"

Eric spoke up a small swirl of energy around his hands a darker red seemed to glow, ruby in color he stared down the agent. Agent Sera seemed more amused than anything while the tall male agent seemed irritated by Eric, the other agent seemed almost indifferent to the situation only pulling out a notebook.

"When you entered the gate what did you see," She asked

"An underwater cavern with Dracians inside of it" I spoke up noting a slight blue glow to my own body

"Dracians?" The shorter male agent questioned

"They are dragons from Atlantic mythology if we are being specific the two we saw in the dungeon would be Aquatic Dracians." I responded while he wrote everything down.

"Secondly how long have you two been going throw awakening"

We shared a look both turning to her shrugging as we didn't have an answer to that. The tall agent make a noise that showed his displeasure before turning to our parents. Eric's parents seemed to have a look of concern and fear in there eyes while my father just looked angrily at me.

"SO you two what felt that little power boost you gain from partially awakening and decided to go into the dungeon! Instead of being checked out to see if you where even fully developed or strong enough for the gate!" The tall agent yelled at us.

"Agent Bryan that is enough." the shorter man spoke

"O yeah Stephan defend the irresponsible kids from there actions"

"The dungeon was created for Alfonso so why does it matter"

Dad spoke up causing all three agents to turn and look at him. I shared a look of confusion with them as i looked at him, Dad seemed mildly angry at them but he sighed before continuing.

"His mother told me about it, the Atlantin gods create dungeons to train their champions. Alfonso is the rightful inheritor of one of their noble houses, I didn't think the gate would happen this early but it is his gate to challenge. I am a bit confused as to why Eric was allowed in though and I'm angry that my son didn't come to me when he found the gate"

Dad words held a bit of authority as the sheriff it was his job to keep track of these thing but he seemed pretty angry. A small pit formed in my stomach as I looked at my dad, i felt Eric put his hand on my lower back trying to keep me calm the blue around me started to grow a bit brighter as this continue the room seem to burst into argument as agent Bryan started yelling at my father who returned the energy right back. Eric's father began arguing as well now while agent Sera grabbed me and started pulling me to the side, Eric followed his hand never leaving my back.

"I apologize for all of this but from just that I can say you two are not in trouble. How about tomorrow I will meet you two at Mr. Arevataino home"

The way she spoke my last name was a bit strange for me but she held a gentle smile, Eric seemed to grunt yes while I just gave a nod. The agent walked back in causing me to relax a bit, Eric seemed to be trying to calm down but the whole thing had him agitated, i gave him a gentle jab to get him to chill out for a bit. The way he sighed before nodding and heading into the tent as my father started to walk outside giving me a sharp look to follow with him as he started to head out.

"Get in the car we will head home in a moment"

I followed my father's instructions to get inside the car. Many question ran through my mind as he sat next to me not saying a single word about anything that had just happened.
