The Story Guardians (New Version)

In a most peculiar land, there lived four children, all with royal blood. However, in the land of Write, they were chosen as the protectors of Write, and their names were Shystar, Dragonheart, Kawaii, and Tech. As the land's Guardians, they were in charge of keeping the the villagers safe and peaceful. The villagers never were, to be clear, and neither were the Guardians. They were all in some sort of argument, wether it be if they should send hunters by pairs or larger groups, or how the rations in their community would be like. This was no surprise, however, as six kingdoms were clearly once enemies. So how would the children get along?

During their first meeting, none of them knew how they should speak together. "So...." Shystar began, a bit puzzled. Dragonheart chuckled. "Remember how my family beat YOUR family during the war?" Shystar began to grow angry. "It was because YOUR family STOLE a stupid cannon from Kawaii's family, because you knew they were easy targets." "Easy?!" Kawaii cringed. "We're not easy, dimwit!" In an attempt to stop the argument, Tech slammed her fists against the tables. "Guys, we're supposed to be a team, not people who have verbal wars each day!" Suddenly Dragonheart reached across the table. "Verbal?! I'll give you VERBAL!" Then, the door slammed open. It was Madam Wolf, the one who trained the young apprentices. She snapped her fingers. "Apologize. All of you." She growled. The youngsters were about to complain, but instead a Sorry escaped from their tongues. "Now back to work. All of you. Your first assignment is tomorrow." They slumped out of their chairs, and ignored each other on the way to the training base camp. "We'll start," began Wolf. "With a quick exercise. Get on those hoverboard and give me ten laps."

"Could've been' worse," Tech tried to look on the bright side of things.

Night arrived, and, as usual, the young apprentices went to sleep. The morning Sun rose, and Dragonheart pounced on everyone's bed. "I wonder where the other two apprentices are," Tech wondered. "Best not to worry about it," Dragonheart mumbled. "Probably dead, or missing." After Dragonheart's disturbance, Tech's cat, Ivan, hissed angrily, and lurked around the bed for another place to curl up. The door cracked open, and in walked Madam Wolf. "Students," she began. "As you know, today is your very first assignment. Hopefully you have learned some spells." She glared at Dragonheart, who stared at the floor. She had only learned a few spells. "Meet me at the base camp, and I will describe your assignment." She ordered, and disappeared. Everyone used teleportation spells, except for Dragonheart, who lagged behind.

"Well then," Miss Wolf wavered her fingers around. "Bring me a potion." She said. "That is your assignment." Everyone looked at each other. Kawaii cringed again. "That's it? Some assignment." Madam Wolf grinned, her big Cheshire grin. "Oh no," she said. "That is not all."

"I have a map, for my best student to hold. And, I have marked where the potion is. Teleport back here, if something goes wrong. But, you must bring the potion. No excuses."

She handed the map to Tech. She stared at it for a while, noting how old it looked. The other students gathered around her. "Well," Tech began. "Where are the instructions?"

"In your hand." Replied Madam Wolf. "Now be off with you!"

She disappeared. Shystar looked around in amazement. "Well, let me see the map," Tech raised her eyebrows. "Umm..... have you been listening?"

Afterwards, they all started following the map. "Wait!" Cried Tech, examining the location. "We're in the same place as we started."

"Seems like we've been here forever." Moaned Shystar. "This'll be nice to keep track of in my journal. Hmm.... My 'friends' and I have been at this forever, and-"

"Dude, shut up. I got this. Give me the map!" Dragonheart ordered, stamping her feet on the ground. With brief exhaustion, Tech gave in. Dragonheart traced her finger around the crinkled paper. "See that? It's water. Water tends to flow downhill, so we need to stop spinning in circles and start going downhill."

"How do you know this stuff?" Tech asked.

"I just do," replied Dragonheart. "Now let's go."

Eventually, they found the stream of water. "I'm starving." Kawaii whispered, in a shy tone. The stream flowed with fish. "I'm not going for that," muttered Shystar.

Dragonheart examined the fish closely. "Those are Firefish!" She gasped. "I wouldn't eat those, if I were you."

"Why not?" Asked Tech, fascinated.

Kawaii' s eyes glistened. "My mother always told me about Firefish. One bite will burn your mouth. Another, will, kill you." She looked sadly at her locket, opening it once, then closing it tightly. "Is there any magic we can use to get the fire OUT of the fish?" Tech asked Dragonheart.

"Don't ask me. I don't know a single thing about magic, just a few spells." She snapped.

"I'm sure we can find something else to eat," Shystar said, hopefully.

They moved on, searching for something to eat. High up, in a tall tree, was a Shadowbird nest filled with black eggs. Shadowbirds are birds that move like phantoms, quick and stealthy. Their eggs are very edible, though rare to find. Kawaii found herself drooling. "How about those?"

Dragonheart cringed. "Too high," she muttered, trying to move on. Tech pulled the back of her cloak. "It's not that bad. We just need a levitation spell." She grinned helplessly.

Shystar flipped through her journal. "Nope, I didn't manage to take notes on the levitation spell. Mostly I just have shapeshifting, water, elements, that kind of stuff. But we can't use elements to get that nest down, or they'll break."

Kawaii snapped her fingers. "Shapeshifting? We can shapeshifting into monkeys."

Everyone stared at her. "Monkeys?"

"Yes. Monkeys."

"Well, might as well try." Said Tech. "What do we need?"

Shystar looked at her journal. "We just need to snap our fingers three times, and say, 'Monkey, Monkey, Monkey.'"

As they began to shapeshift into these creatures, they climbed the tree, and grabbed the eggs, later saying, "Human, human, human."

After a not so tasty Shadowbird meal, they continued to follow the map. "If I'm correct, the potion should be in that cave." Dragonheart pointed to a cave in the distance. As they walked, their feet, not used to walking so much, ached. "Are we there yet?" Moaned Kawaii, her head drooping down.

"We're getting closer," said Tech, trying to sustain the pain. At the mouth of the cave, Shystar pointed to a huge creature, with long claws. It was asleep. "It's a Lanther," she whispered. The half lion, half panther, growled in its sleep, with a dazzling glowing bottle in its paw. "The Lanther's Bottle," murmured Dragonheart. "I thought it was just a myth."

The Lanther was very intimidating, and slowly, Kawaii began to creep up upon it. "Are you crazy?!" Shystar whispered. "That'll kill you?"

"You don't know until you try," said Kawaii, cringing all of a sudden. "I just realized," she said. "It smells like burnt poop in here,"

"You realized that?" Dragonheart said, already plugging her nose. "Just now?"

The group found themselves all cringing. It did smell like, how do I say this, burnt excrement. "Maybe it's the Lanther," Tech muttered, sticking her nose in her cloak. "But if you gotta go, you gotta go."

Carefully, Tech placed one hand on the bottle, and handed it to Shystar, who then placed it in her satchel. One yellow eye opened from the Lanther. "Sleep magic, anyone?!" Dragonheart cried out. "Shush!" Snapped Shystar, clamping her mouth. The beast had already awoken. Sprinting, they all teleported back to camp. Dragonheart grabbed Kawaii's sleeve just in time, and they arrived to an empty meeting room. "Where is the witch?" Kawaii looked around. Wolf's trademark, "Slam the door open" came back again. "Excellent job," she said, as she snatched the bottle. "You have completed your first task."

"We did it," said Dragonheart, surprised.

"Together," Tech said cheerfully, placing her hand in the middle of the table.

Everyone looked at her, but one by one, their hands were laid upon one another.

"Well, I guess we should study some more spells," advised Shystar. They fetched their spellbooks, all but Kawaii. She stared at the chain around her neck. "I know water and earth," she paused, twirling the chain around her finger. "Could be useful," Dragonheart grinned. Tech stroked Ivan, yet continued to read.

"What's up?" Shystar asked.

"Just reading," Tech confidently replied, flipping her page. "I finally learned the sleep spell, but it only works on smaller beasts. It says that dragons and witches can't fall asleep on this spell."

"Dragons?" Kawaii gasped, leaning forward.

"Yes," Tech still looked at her tattered book. "There are many types of dragons, ice dragons, swamp dragons, earth dragons."

"I have an idea." Said Shystar. "Let's go find a Dragon!"

"Are you crazy?!" Gasped Dragonheart. "That'll take forever! And we're still apprentices!"

"She's right," nodded Tech. "We'll need lots of experience and magic."

Night came, and that meant the next assignment was next week.

"What'd you wanna do this week?" Dragonheart asked. "I mean, we could be considered as friends so-"

"Partners." Shystar corrected. "Just partners."

"Now that I think about it, it would be fun to go searching for a Dragon," added Tech. "And find a cave full of Gold, and learn more magic."

"Magic, Smagic," Dragonheart moaned. "You know I'm a little crappy in magic. Big deal to me."

"I'm hungry," whispered Kawaii.

"You're always hungry!" Shystar yelled, slamming the table.

"Guys, calm down." Tech paused. "We can find something fun to do. The next assignment is just next week. You know we have to practice." Ivan purred in her lap.

"Anyone wanna dual? I got a few spells down. And nobody beats me." Dragonheart smirked, throwing a plasma ball and catching it.

"You're on," said Shystar, getting into battle position.

As they walked outside, the two stared at each other, plasma in Dragonheart's hand, and fire in Shystar' s hand. The others watched from the grass benches.

Guys should I continue dis cause like.... idk but I need some ideas for wat happens next

After much throwing, Kawaii yawned. "Nothing is happening."

Dragonheart dodged a fireball. She threw her sad little thing of plasma. And the fight continued, until Madam Wolf came in. "Duals are not allowed." She snapped, flicking a hair behind her ear.

"We were just having fun," protested Dragonheart.

"Yea, and nobody got hurt." Shystar continued.

"Someone could have been hurt through," Tech broke in. "We're sorry. We shouldn't have done that, ma'am."

Madam Wolf nodded her head. "It is time for chemistry class, with Mr. Lizardon."

And with that, the teleportation spells made them disappear.

Kawaii turned around. "This isn't our class..." She murmured, looking around.

"What is this place?" Tech stood up. Surrounding them was land with odd flowers, odd structures, and odd animals.

"Maybe the spells malfunctioned," Dragonheart observed. A white deer with leathery wings flew by.

"Guys, I hate to admit this, but I'm scared." Shystar made a wry face. "What if we can't get back?"

"We can just teleport back," said Kawaii, staring at a plant with roots helping it move around.

"We're out of magic!" Tech gasped. "We dropped our wands at the meeting area so we wouldn't cheat during chemistry."

They stared at each other blankly. "We're gonna be late!" Gasped Dragonheart.

"Being late isn't the problem," continued Shystar. "It's getting back that is."

"We can try looking around," suggested Tech.

"Worth a try," Dragonheart moaned. "I'll check my bag for food."

"W-Wait, you had FOOD?!" Kawaii screamed, going through Dragonheart's bag. Inside was a single dried fig. "What?" She said as the others looked at her. "They're good for you."

"So?" Protested Shystar. "You only have one stupid fig!"

"Oh well," Dragonheart rolled her eyes, popping the fig in her mouth. She made a wry face and swallowed hard.

"Whatever," said Tech. "We need to find someone to help us get out of here. But we can't spilt up. Shystar, do you have any supplies?"

Shystar reached into her bag. "Flashlight, rope, notebook, and pen."

"Then let's go," said Kawaii.

The land was most peculiar, with different structures. "Look," said Tech, pointing to a large figure. "What's that?"

"It's a tree, dumbo." Dragonheart barred her teeth. And it was a tree, but not any ordinary tree. It was large, extremely large, with one object that looked like a door. "Let's go!" Shystar said excitedly, racing towards the tree. Following her, they knocked on the figure. To their surprise, a whole in the bark had a leaf covering it, and the flap was lifted to reveal an eye. "Ahh!" They all jumped back. "Who's there?" Said the eye.

"Umm..." Tech shuddered. "We're the guardians of Write. And we need help."

"Write you say? And who is Write?"

"Not a Who, a place. We live there."

"And what do you want? Who do you need?"

"Someone who has magic. We need to get back home."

The door finally opened, to reveal a little dwarf owl. Dragonheart snickered. "Who are you laughing at?" The owl seemed confused.

"Nah, nothing," muttered Dragonheart, trying not to laugh.

"Come in, then," the owl beckoned. "Don't touch anything."

The owl' s house was beautifully furnished, with handmade furniture. The chairs were smaller, but the house seemed very big-like a doll mansion. Not of them had to crouch down.

"Come, sit, have some tea." Said the owl, grabbing a teapot with his wing. "It's mint."

"It's fine," said Shystar. "We just need some help. And fast."

The owl poured more tea. "You will get help after you answer my favor. I have an important task for you."

Kawaii sighed. "Another? We just need to get back to camp!"

Tech stared at her feet. "What do you need?"

The owl carefully sipped his cup. "You must take down a beast for me. It has been terrorizing my village."

"Village?" Dragonheart gasped. "You mean there are other people? Forget it, I'm asking somebody else."

Tech grabbed her sweater. "Not so fast."

"I'm the only one here who contains magic." The owl resumed. "Far east is a monstrous Dragon, and you must kill him. He lives in a worn down castle."

Dragonheart grinned. "Dragons, yes."

The owl equipped them with weapons and wands of the sort, asking them to bring the tools back. He provided them also with buttered bread, fruit, and meat. "You can find fresh water," he said, grabbing a Gork Apple and stuffing it in their bags. "Make sure you bring back my wands, though."

"We will," Tech promised, slinging her bag over her back.

The trip seemed long a tiring, nothing really to do. "How much longer?" Dragonheart moaned, panting.

"Not much," Shystar hunched her bag. "I'm so.....thirsty.."

"We need to find water," Kawaii panted.

"No duh," Dragonheart snarled, sticking out her tongue. Tech pointed to a place far in the distance. "There," she gasped.

"I think that's a lake."

After much struggle, they finally reached the water source. Kawaii scooped some in her palms. "This is different," she said. "Fresh, sweet. "Not like the water magic I use."

-note- I'm sorry guys, I have to leave the Wiki, due to school and other things. I won't continue this story, so that's the end.

Okay, permission or not, Moonbear, I'm continuing this. I can't take it anymore.

"It's nice," continued Kawaii. "I think it might be magic,"

"Nah," Dragonheart looked at the water cautiously. "Just pack some water with your magic storage."

The journey went on towards the huge castle, and night took over the day. "It's freezing," Shystar complained.

"The blankets are thin, I have to admit," Tech's teeth chattered. They could hardly sleep, and their world seemed cold and miserable. Yet the sun came, and a smell came to their noses. "Oh, um.. good morning!" Said Tech cheerfully. She tied sticks with vines, and was cooking some of the meat. "I found some fresh veggies, and well, some of the sweet water I used to make a soup. So we get hydrated and full!"

"Wait, what?" Kawaii yawned.

"Great, I'm starving!" Dragonheart immediately started eating. It wasn't the best meal, but it would do. Slinging up their packs, the castle was just a few miles away.

With great exhaustion, they arrived at the gates of the run down castle. "Finally!" Dragonheart said impatiently, knocking at the door.

"Ya think knocking is gonna get someone to answer?" Shystar looked in disbelief.

"The gates always have a key or something," said Kawaii. The door was a brown bark color, brimmed with a fading Orange. It had a matching knob to knock with, and it shadowed upon the grass. "Maybe we're at the wrong castle," Tech glanced at another object in the distance.

"Nah," Dragonheart stared at the door.

"Well, I would imagine it would be farther out," Kawaii murmured.

The door swung open, with nothing revealing exactly what opened it.

"This is it, alright." Kawaii shaped her mouth into an O.

There were many, as in MANY flights of stairs. At the bottom, there was a girl curled up next to a dragon. The girl had a long, leafy green gown, and golden hair.

"Is she crazy?!" Dragonheart hissed. They all approached her, carefully, spells ready in case. The girl looked at them, frightened, yet she remained silent and stroked the sleeping creature. "Who are you?" Shystar looked at her, confused.

The girl looked at them, her icy eyes staring right into their souls. "Don't come any closer. You will awaken my brother."

"Your brother?" Kawaii whispered.

"He was cursed by a witch. I swore an oath to my mother that I would protect him."

"Well, umm.... interesting," Tech said, cautiously.

The girl looked at them, more relaxed. "My name is Foxstray."

A small skinny winged wolf crashed through the stone ceiling and landed on the dragon's tail as the rubble scattered. The dragon woke up roaring in fury, the guardians of Write backing up in fear. Yet the dragon's anger wasn't directed towards them, but towards the wolf that woke it up. The white winged wolf had a nametag which said 'dazed&confused10', which started blackening as the dragon charged up a fireball.

Or at least it seemed like a fireball at the first glance. The dragon opened it 's jaws, roaring again, and let loose a massive blast of burning hot cursed fire that burnt off all the wolf's fur and gave it 3rd degree burns. The dragon proceeded to angrily tear out the wolf 'dazed&confused10'' s intestines out and devour the still burning wolf and go back to sleep as the guardians of Write shiverred in fear at what just happened.
