Prelue
A loud roar brought a black Psi dragon into a room. The black Psi dragon nuzzled the owner of the roar. It told the owner, "That is not one egg, but two eggs. I am happy." The other dragon replied, "Yes, it is, Coershun. I am delighted to have twins. This means you are a father, Coershun, and I am a mother! We are two happy dragons now." Coershun, the grey Psi dragon, looked over at the eggs, and gently touched one of the eggs. One of the eggs moved, and the dragoness replied, "It seems to respond to your touch, Coershun." Coershun rested besides her, and replied, "Yes, Decepshun. I am happy it is responding to my touch. Should we let our riders know we are parents?"
Decepshun nodded, "Moordryd surely must know I have an egg. Moordryd will believe I lay one egg, as he has been riding me when I was pregnant. He may be happy for me."

In the control room, however, an older white-haired human was watching one of the monitors. The monitor showed Coershun and Decepshun clearly with the two eggs. The human sneered, "Well, well, what do we have here? I am surprised that Decepshun has laid two eggs before the proper time. She is only fourteen years old. I believe I will go and see the eggs for myself."

Decepshun was shifting one of the eggs carefully, when the human came in. They saw his cheerful mood, and relaxed. The human smiled, “I am very happy for you, Decepshun, Coershun. Congratulations on laying the two eggs, Decepshun. I am pleasantly surprised to learn of your parenthood. I am sure you will be wonderful parents.” He stroked the dragoness and she purred with delight at his touch. She has not forgotten her early memories. Coershun watched them delightfully. Word temporarily patted the eggs, and Decepshun touched one of the eggs with her snout. He told the dragons, “I will leave you two now to tend to the eggs.” Word left the two dragons, amid some mutterings.

“Father, why are you sending Cain and me outside the city? Is there any dragon worth stealing? This must be important enough for us to come here.” Moordryd asked his father. He and his best friend, Cain, were in the control room where his father usually briefs them. His father had his back turned to the teenagers, and was watching the monitors. The white-haired teenager waited, knowing his father. After what seems like hours (actually ten minutes), Word replied, “There is a rare Prophet, and I want you two to ride out to the Prophets hideout. I want you two to steal this Prophet, as its mag energy is astounding. It can use Green Mag Cannon and Turquoise Hypersound Gear without draining its mag reserves. You and Cain must bring this rare Prophet back. Do not fail me, Moordryd. This rare Prophet is different from the rest of the pack, even from Propheci. Fail this mission, and I will disown you. Do you hear me, Moordryd?” Moordryd gasped, “But, but, Father, why do you need this Prophet so much? If it is that important enough, why didn’t you go and steal it yourself?”
Fighting the urge to snarl, Word turned around, and replied, “Go now, Moordryd Paynn, or you will find yourself an orphan. Leave my sight and the Citadel before I count to five! One…….” Using his right hand, Word raised one finger. Cain pulled Moordryd’s arm, and whined, “Let’s go, Moordryd! He looks serious this time!” Even before Word could raise his third finger, the teenagers had already bolted from the room. Turning back to the monitor, Word pressed a few buttons. He had installed several surveillance cameras around his citadel. One monitor was showing the entrance, where two dragons were waiting. Another showed the egg room. It was at the egg room that Word was smiling.

At the entrance, Decepshun watched Moordryd packing some gears. She wore Red Thrusting Gear, and Purple Trapping Gear. Coershun was wearing the same gear. Cain was seated, and was waiting for his friend. Moordryd buckled his saddlebag and the dragoness magged him onto the saddle. He ordered her to walk, and she obediently walked forward. Being a Psi dragon, she could sense her master’s uneasiness and mentally asked him why he was uneasy. Keeping one hand on the controls, Moordryd replied, mentally, “I do not know why my father wants Cain and me to steal a rare dragon. He says it is important for his domination plan. He should have gone out to steal it for himself. If I fail this mission, he will disown me. This means, he will not let me call him Father anymore.”
Cain told Moordryd, “Your father made me scared just now. I wonder why this Prophet is so important to him.” Moordryd kept quiet, and Cain allowed him to brood.

Down in the egg room, Word laughed upon seeing two unguarded eggs. He rubbed his hands gleefully, and left the control room. Five minutes later, he was surrounded by sentinel-like equipment we know, and was furiously working on a much larger version of the draconium amplifier. He is focusing all of all his energy along with the energy of two dragons (black) on the two dragon eggs he had stolen from the nursery.

Hours later, Word returned the two eggs to the nursery. He snickered, “I sent my son away, so that I can do what I had discovered. It has been five hours since I sent him away. Now it is time to call him back from his false mission.” The eggs were more black than usual. Word went back to the control room, and pressed a button. Moordryd’s face appeared on the screen, “Yes, Father. What is it? I am in the Old City, looking for the Prophets.” His father replied, smiling, “There has been a change of plans. Something has been stolen from me, and I believe it is hidden in the Penn Stables. Go over there now. Do not worry about being an orphan. I will never disown you, my son.”

In the Old City, Moordryd stopped Decepshun, and the dragoness was grateful for the rest. She had been ridden without rest, and she looked at Coershun. The other dragon was panting too. Cain asked, “What did your father say?” His friend replied, “My father had something stolen from him, and he wants me to get it back from the Penn Stables.” As her breathing slowed, Decepshun stood stiffly, and suddenly roared. Coershun roared piercingly, forcing their riders to cover their ears.
The dragoness told Coershun, “What if it was a trick to get us out of the nursery? We had better go back. What if it was a trick to steal the eggs and do something to them?” Without even waiting for the humans, the dragons turned around, and ran as fast as they can. Their riders were forced to hold on tight.

Hours later, inside the citadel, the dragons ran into the nursery with Moordryd only. Cain was magged off Coershun. They found the now-blacked eggs inside the nursery, and Moordryd suddenly heard footsteps behind them. He turned his head around to see his father smiling. He asked, “What did you do, Father?”
Word replied, “I powered these eggs with enough draconium to power the League of Eight for unlimited time. Come with me.” His son dismounted to prevent Decepshun from charging at him. The teenager obediently went to Word, and the dragons were left to rage on.

Word talked to his son, and Moordryd had to listen to his long-winded speech. One hour later, the teenager was ordered to continue stealing dragon eggs.

Reviews are welcome.

Thanks for making me a beta-reader. The story and grammar is good. Not bad for a prelude. Is that the reason why Decepshun laid Banshun's egg in secret? If so, you have made a good story. Be prepare for any scolding from DSC.

Please bring on the first chapter.

Partly yes.

Chapter 1

A light-blue/pink dragoness was dozing in her stable pen, when the loud cracks woke her up. She slowly stretched herself, taking the sleepy feel of sleep from her claws, and quietly went out of her pen. She could hear the snores of the other dragons. She discovered that two pens have been unlocked, and guessed that the riders have been ordered to ride in the night. She could hear the loud peal of thunder, and shook her head.
The loud cracks sounded again, and a dragon merely grunted in his sleep. The dragoness followed the source, and found a previously unknown wall. She pushed against the wall, and it opened with a creaking. She paused, but the thunder covered the creaking sound. She went in, and saw there were two doors. She listened again, and the cracks sounded yet again. She followed it, and into a doorway. Beyond the door, she stood still as she discovered the room's contents. Two eggs were the only contents in the room, and one of the eggs were cracking open. An egg cracks and a tiny pup emerges with a cute squeak of a roar. The tiny pup sensed a presence and crawled towards the source.

The dragoness watched as the pup crawled towards her. She noticed the pup bears a strong resemblance to the Dragon Eyes Dragon Crew, Decepshun. But unlike Decepshun, this pup has a black back and black mask. The pup squealed delightfully as it touches her right leg. The dragoness said, "Hello, little one. I am not your mother, but I will look after you until your mother comes home. Your mother has been ordered to ride out in the dark and stormy night, and I do not know why." The pup stared up at the dragoness, and squeaked its cute roar. She stroked the pup gently, and the pup purred delightfully.

"Well! Well! What do we have here? One of the two eggs has hatched, and the pup is clearly Decepshun's pup. I will not go down to see the newly hatched pup or that dragoness will inform Decepshun. Decepshun was furious with me several months ago, and I do not want her to be angry again." Word said to himself, as he looked at the monitors.

"What are you doing with the pup, Luutt? You know perfectly well that the pup is not your pup. Wait for your turn." roared an angry dragoness. It was a pinkish-purple dragoness, and she was angry.
The light-blue dragoness replied, "Calm down, Decepshun. The pup crawled to me, as I was nearby. I heard cracking sounds and I went to check. I believe it is a female pup. That means you have a daughter." She gently magged the pup towards the other egg. No sooner had the female pup landed, the other egg cracked opened. The two dragoness watched as the pup poked the egg, and had to yelp as a tiny shell piece hit her back. Decepshun went over to the pup, and stroked its back. Luutt stood still.

"It is another female pup, Decepshun. You have two daughters now. But your other daughter closely resembles Coershun. Does that mean Coershun is the father? If you do not mind my presence, I would like to name one of your daughters. As your best friend, I want you to have the best of life." Luutt told Decepshun. The other dragoness turned towards her, and she could see the anger fading from the expression. Decepshun nodded, "Yes. Coershun is my mate. It is true we are good friends. I am sorry for being so angry with you. It is just that several months ago, Word took the eggs, and did an experiment on them. I was angry with him. Now, I find you with my daughters, and I, well, just snapped at you. You are welcome to name my daughters. Let's ask the elder pup."
The elder pup let out a startled squeal upon seeing Decepshun, and crawled towards Luutt. Decepshun magged the younger pup to her right leg, and told the elder pup, "I am your mother. That is my best friend, Luutt. We are going to name you."
Luutt replied, "How about this name? Alexis?" The elder pup shook its head. Decepshun said, "Bandele?" The pup shook its head again. She tried again, "Betty?" The pup squealed delightfully, and Luutt replied, "It looks like your elder daughter likes the name, Betty. Ok, Betty shall be your name. Do you like that?" Betty nodded. Decepshun looked down at the younger pup, who stared up at her. Luutt said, "We are going to name you." Decepshun said, "Martha?" The younger pup shook its head. Luutt said, "Myranda?" The pup shook it head. Decepshun said, "Michelle?" The pup squealed delightfully.
The two dragoness nodded to each other. Decepshun said, "My daughters shall be known as Betty and Michelle. Please come here, Betty. I am your mother, and you are my daughter." Betty did not understand what she was saying, but sensed that she was speaking the truth. Michelle roared at Betty, and Betty crawled to Decepshun. Luutt watched. Not long after this, Coershun entered the room. Upon seeing Luutt, he growled lowly. "Calm down, Coershun. Luutt did not mean any harm. Your daughters are named Betty and Michelle." Decepshun told Coershun. Betty and Myrtle crawled behind Decepshun's hind legs. Coershun said, "Do not be afraid, Betty, Myrtle. I am your father. I will not harm you." Sensing the truth, the pups crawled towards him. Luutt said, "I am going to make sure no other dragons saw Coershun coming in here." She left the family.

Coershun nuzzled the pups slowly, and Decepshun told him, "I cannot believe the beeper went off earlier. We have to keep our daughters a secret as long as we can. I can believe they will not remain a secret for much longer. We must keep the secret for as long as possible. We cannot risk them falling into Moordryd's hands. Sooner or later, we have to tell the other dragons." Coershun nodded, "I was not too surprised to find you standing nearby with Moordryd and Cain. You are right. We must tell the other dragons sooner or later. They may protect our daughters too. Let's go and sleep. I am very tired, having been ridden half the night." Decepshun nodded, and she magged the pups. She decided to take her daughters to her stall. A few minutes later, she magged the pups down into her stall. Fortunately, her stall was in a corner, and had a private section. It was to the private section that she put the pups into.
The private section cannot be causally seen from the outside, unless a human goes deeply into the back. The dragoness told her daughters, "You will be living here with me." The pups slept immediately, and she nuzzles them gently, before going to sleep.

It was late morning when she woke up, and finding Coershun in her stall. He looked frightened, and she raised her head. She asked, "What is it, Coershun?" Coershun replied, "It seems the other dragons heard some squeals coming from this stall, and Luutt stood guard over your stall. She was questioned, and she looked around for any signs of humans. She told them that you have two daughters, and does not want any of the humans to know. As you are the leader, they pledged to protect our daughters. Is that wonderful?" She nodded, and slowly got up. She walked to the front of the stall, to find Luutt standing guard, and the other Dragon Eyes dragons milling around. One of the dragons spotted her, and came over. "We will do what we can to protect your daughters. We will keep your daughters with you for as long as possible."
Decepshun replied, "Thank you, everyone."

End of Chapter 1.

It is good the eggs hatched. I am happy the Dragon Eyes dragons are willing to protect Decepshun and Coershun's daughters. I cannot wait for more.

Sorry for the lack of update. I was very busy, moving back to USA from Sydney. I had many things to pack, and half my collections have been unpacked. Please note the named Crew at the end of Chapter 2 are owned by DSM.

Chapter 2

“What is that sound, Mother? Is it a new toy to play with?” A pup asked Decepshun. The pup was snuggled up against her mother, with the other pup pushing her body from atop the adult. The other pup heard it too, and suddenly, she fell off, landing on her sister. Decepshun was napping, but woke with a start, as soon as she heard it.
She told the first pup, “It is a beeper, which means my rider wants to ride me. No, it is not a new toy. I am sorry to disappoint you, Michelle, but it is not something to play with. I had better go, before my rider comes into my stall and sees you. You must remember to stay close to my stall.”
“DECEPSHUN, WHERE ARE YOU?! I HAVE CALLED YOU, BUT YOU DID NOT RESPOND! WHAT IS HE DOING IN FRONT OF YOUR STALL?” Moordryd was furious, as he stomped into the Dragon Eyes stable. The dragon in question growled fiercely, and Moordryd paused, watching the male dragon. The teenager backed a few steps, with his arms folded. He said, “Fine. I will not get close to Decepshun’s stall.” The male dragon trotted to him, and shoved him to the ground. The teenager was shocked to see the dragon’s claw dropping down onto his face, and hearing the roar.

“Your rider is here, but I am not allowing him to see you coming out.” The male dragon was telling Decepshun, who quietly emerged from her stall. The dragoness smiled at the two pups, which were starting to whimper. She raised her right claw, and shook it. Betty stopped whimpering, and turning to Michelle, she shook her head. Michelle stared at Betty, but she has stopped whimpering. Decepshun nodded, before leaving the stall, and the pups started to emerge. She was not aware of this, and called to her companion, “You can let my master breath easier now.” As her companion slowly lifted his claw, however, there was a roar. The roar’s owner said, “Stop, Son! Buddy, I can see the two pups clearly! Hey, Bud, ook behind you!” Decepshun paused, and turning, she was shocked to see her pups dashing towards her.

The male dragon lifted his claw, and the teenager saw a pink dragon face above him. The pink dragon was growling lowly, and the claw paused, in mid-air. She jerked her head forward. Moordryd raised his head, and he slowly focused his vision. As his vision slowly become sharper, he was startled to see three shapes. He told his ‘captor’, “Get off my chest, Lukershun!” To his dragon, he said, “I see you have two pups, Decepshun. You should know me better now, Girl! You should now not one of my crew members will harm pups. It has been three years since Lukershun hatched from his egg, and one year since we have completed the Academy. The only person you should be worried about is my father. Come here, Girl. I will tell my crew that there are two companions for Lukershun.” Decepshun hung her head, and the dark pink dragoness shook her head. The male dragon got off the teenager’s chest, and Moordryd was able to stand up. Decepshun went to her master, and he smiled, his anger vanishing rapidly, “Oh, Decepshun. What am I going to do with you? How old are your pups?”

Luutt asked her son, “Do you know why we had to hide the pups? We were afraid Moordryd will capture them. You had been captured, when you were just a newborn pup. Do you remember your captor?” Her son nodded, as Moordryd stroked Decepshun’s neck, “Yes, Mother. I ate something in my first meat, a Crow Drag, and my body grew in size until it is same as yours. I can remember him as clearly as I can see you now. Armeggaddon, ancient leader of Dragon Eyes, was my captor. He will pay dearly for what he has done.” He clawed the ground, with a fierce growl in his throat.

"t is all right, Lukershun. I will join forces with the other Boosters, and we will defeat him once and for all.” Moordryd told the dragon, which slowly calmed down. The teenager stroked his neck, and he nuzzled the teenager affectionately.

Betty and Michelle skidded to a halt, when their mother looked at them. Michelle said, “Oh no! We have come out of the stall, when we are not supposed to! Mother is going to scold us.” She whimpered, as Decepshun went to them. However, Decepshun beckoned them to come closer, and one of the pups obeyed. The adult dragoness said, “It is all right, my darlings. My rider will not harm you. He had promised not to take you to his father. Come here, Michelle! I am not angry with you. He is right. I should have known better. Eventually he was told of Lukershun’s birth, and what has happened.”
Moordryd turned back to her, and smiled, “Is it three years, Decepshun? I remember you were pregnant, and after taking the illegal gears off you, your energy was drained.” She nodded, and he went down on one knee. She called her daughters, “Come, Betty, Michelle. Come and meet my rider. He is the one who had installed the beeper onto my saddle.” The pups willingly trotted up to the teenager, and he tickled them, making them squeal delightfully.

Luutt smiled, and she half-turned her body, so that she is looking outside the stable. In the distance, she could see Coershun and his rider on the saddle. Coershun roared, “What are you doing? Is Decepshun coming or not?” She roared back, “It would seem that your daughters came out, when their mother was not looking, and her master has seen them. He will not send them to his father, just like Lukershun.”
Hearing the dragoness roar, Moordryd picked the two pups, and asked his dragoness, “Is it okay to bring them out to my crew, Girl? I will tell them they have two more pups to look after.” Decepshun gazed at her master for a long time, and slowly, she nodded.

“Moordryd, what took you so long? Was Decepshun sleeping deeply, and you could not wake her up? Whose pups are these? What is this? One of the pups looked like Decepshun, except for the back and the upper part of the legs. The other pup looks like Coershun. Does that mean they belong to Coershun and Decepshun?” Cain was saying.

His leader nodded, as he put the pups down. “That is correct, Cain. These are Coershun’s and Decepshun’s pups. I remembered my dragon was pregnant, and she was drained, after that enclosed race. It appears Coershun mated Decepshun, after Lukershun came back to us. Whoa, Coershun, take it easy! I will not let my father take your daughters away. I will make sure to alter the alarm, so that we have time to hide the pups. My father will be hit, like it did against me.” Coershun nodded, as he started to remember.
Rancydd sighed, “Word must not be kept waiting, Moordryd! If you do not mount up, your father will be coming here. You know that.” Moordryd nodded, and as he mounted, he said, “Lukershun, keep the pups close to you. I must not keep my father waiting. Come, Cain, Ran, and Ham. Let’s ride to the citadel.” His dragon nuzzled the pups, and Michelle asked, “Do you have to go, Mother?” Her mother nodded, “Yes, my dears. Mother and Father will come back. Remember to listen to your brother!” Betty rubbed against the dragoness’ front right leg, and replied, “Yes, Mother. We will listen to our brother.”
Lukershun stayed with his sisters, and they watched as Decepshun led three dragons out of the Compound.

End of Chapter 2.

DSM thanks you for crediting him. He is delighted to see Lukershun in your story, along with Ham and his dragon, Illskyy. llskyy's pcture coming soon. Check my stable soon.

Humans are in the secret. That is interesting. Keep going.

You are welcome. I see the new Dragon Eyes Crew members on the Penn Stable. An idea from Can's Munity?

I couldn't help but notice that in chapter 2 you called Michelle Myrle. It was when they met Coershun for the first time.

Great story too by the way!!! :cookie: :cookie: :cookie:
