Episode Twelve
Stythiamieux and the Viviadex Brotherhood
Rudolph
The escape from hell was much more than Rudolph or Bert could have ever imagined. They had been climbing for days but at least they reached a point where the path was flat and they could hike.
“Is this ever going to end? Can we take a break? Why are we moving so fast?”
They took turns asking question after question annoying their guide.
Fed up, he turned around and said he wasn't going to lead them anymore if they didn't be quiet and they agreed to stop.
“When we first cames up this paths, we was so scared. We was al.. alo..”
the creature began coughing almost like it was trying to get rid of a hairball.
“Why do you think he says 'we' instead of 'I'?” whispered Rudolph.
“I don't know, but it's creepy and has me worried, I'm not going to lie”
Bert was shaking “Let's find out Bert” said a curious Rudolph.
“Do you need to take a break? We can stop for a bit to catch your breath”
“We think we should know your name
if we're to go any farther with you” demanded Bert.
“My name is Sm...(cough) G. (gasp)..G...(cough) Sm...”
the sound of a really large screech came from below.
It made all three of them jump to attention.
“The Monsters... Monsters... The Monsters is coming... Run”
The creature started sprinting ahead, it was too hard for Rudolph
and Bert to keep up, they lost sight of the creature and hid.
“Where did that, smelly creature disappear to? It seems he's abandoned us Rudolph and I swear if I ever see him again I'll throw him down the hole myself” Bert stood up like he was about to take on the world when another screech came from below and he hid.
“What do you think that is Bert?” asked Rudolph “I'm guessing it's something we don't want to know about, we should hide until it's gone”
“I can't die here today. Not while Luci has my tooth. We'll get out of this hole”
Rudolph looked up and realized how much they still had left
and felt a little disheartened.
“We've been walking for days and we still have two-thirds the climb left.
Let's camp for the night and start fresh in the morning”
Rudolph walked behind the rock where Bert was sitting and crashed down.
“If we don't get eaten in our sleep that is” As Bert finished muttering these words they heard a screech fill the cave yet again.
This time it was much longer and so loud it made the ground shake around them. The entire cave lit up below, and decided it was too dangerous to leave right now so they decided to camp out for a few hours.
Bert was able to pass out but Rudolph couldn't stop thinking about his tooth.
Even when he lost his parents or ran away from home, he didn't miss something as much as he does that tooth. He knew it wasn't normal to feel like this and he didn't know why he did but he didn't really know what normal was anymore. Rudolph still deep in thought was brought back to reality by the sound of someone approaching.
“Bert, Bert, get up. I think the creature's coming back,
let's jump out and surprise him”
“Just a few more minutes and I'll get up, okay Mommy”
Bert continued snoring so Rudolph grabbed his flask and splashed him.
He woke up. Rudolph covered his mouth and told him to be silent because the sound was really close. They jumped out ready to attack a small, weak, and unarmed creature but found fire instead.
They jumped back behind the rock just as fast as they jumped out.
“Tha...that was n..n.. not him, that must be the monster”
stuttered a panicking Bert.
“Yes I realize that but I know we can't fight the thing, it's made of fire.
I'm just going to give up on this search and jump down”
“Don't do that buddy. We might be able to fight thi...
Rudolph why is your nose glowing?”
“My nose hasn't lit up in years. I don't know why it is right now but I used to have many powers, believe it or not, I used to be able to fly”
“Really Rudolph! I bet that was awesome”
“Yup but I'll tell you that story later tonight”
Rudolph sprung out as soon as he finished this sentence.
Rudolph jumped out expecting to see a monster but he didn't see anything.
As he walked attentively forward he heard the sound of breathing ahead.
“I don't want to fight... But if you make me it will not be pretty for the both of us” Rudolph was talking to the blackness of the cave but a voice did respond.
“If you don't want to fight, neither do I. Let me introduce myself”
Rudolph flinched back, scared.
As the figure of a dragon emerged from the shadows.
“My name is Stythliamieux and I hail from Viviadex point, but you can call me Styx. I don't know what you guys are doing down here but you're lucky it's me you ran into. If you had ran into any one of my brothers,
they'd have eaten you without hesitation”.
“I can't believe you're real, I always thought dragons were just a story my parents would tell. My name is Rudolph and I hail from the North Pole. We've been trapped here for weeks trying to get back home...
To make things worse our guide abandoned us”
“Hi, I am Bert. I hail from the Accounting department”
he chuckled and continued “My two best friends in the whole world are up there, worried sick, I need to find a way to let them know I'm alright”
“I was just leaving myself, it's a long story but I'm running away.
I'll guide you out... But we'd better be quick”
After some time hiking, they stopped for a break to relax.
The three of them took turns asking questions
and talking about their pasts, they lost track of time.
Another sudden screech, abruptly halted their discussion on the ancient word wars. It brought them back to reality, all three listened attentively.
“What's that sound Styx?” worried Rudolph.
“Think of it as an alarm clock but you don't want to be around they wake up. Specially not our leader”
“Who is he?” asked a terrified Bert
“My father. He's the king of our brotherhood and now the oldest and one of the most powerful dragons in Library Land. He's a terrifying leader and has a hatred for anyone other than dragonkind.
We've been hibernating for several centuries and we're ready to take back our homeland. you're lucky because we still have a little bit of time before they're awake. In a few weeks there's going to be dozens of dragons flying out of here,
I suggest we leave this tunnel by then”
Styx looked up at the distance they still had to go.
“That's not good news, we probably should be heading out now”
Bert was afraid yet again.
“And miss breakfast, why would you want that?”
said a sinister voice from behind them.
When they turned around Styx gasped and said
“Let me introduce you two to my cousin,
Spyniathro but the brotherhood calls him Spyro”.
Where did the creature go?
Why is Styx running away?
What is Spyro going to do?
Why was Rudolph's nose glowing?
Find Out.
