Chapter 4

Chapter #4
I opened my eyes and jumped up out of my bed howling. "Kor shut up" Breiz moaned , he was still asleep. Drapht leaped out of his bed, mini tornadoes billowing on his hands"Who ,what, where ,when ,why,".
"Why did I faint" I demanded
"Well humans can’t stay awake as long as Komodo dragons" Breiz answered. "It will take you a while to get used to your human form" Drapht whispered. " The reason you blacked out is your human form needed sleep, so you fainted" Breiz reasoned "I’m going for a walk" I said , not used to my human voice. I walked out of my den and was immediately ambushed by Komodo dragon guards. I tapped the tattoo on my neck and turned back into a Komodo dragon. "Kor"? The Komodo dragon guard looked very surprised. He backed off. "But, you..just....human" He managed to sputter those words out. "I don’t know what you are talking about" I said trying to look innocent. So I just got up, told him to go back to his post, and continued walking to the caves door. Then I heard a scream, a human scream. I ran towards the voice as fast as my human legs could carry me. Then I found the source it was a human lady being kicked by an Izan solider.
I was in human form ,I did not know if my fire powers would work in human form. So I snuck up behind the solider and tryed to make a knife out of fire. I did.( Turns out I can use fire in human form ) I stabbed him right between the shoulder blades. He fell with a scream, his skin black where I stabbed him. I picked his gun and slung it over my shoulder. The woman screamed again and ran away over the hill. I kept walking toward.. I don’t know I just felt I had to keep going. I ran over the hill ,chasing the lady. The ground was covered in grass ,and I still was not used to my human body. I tripped and fell on my back. "Ouch" I muttered ,the gun slamming against my back. I laid there for a couple of minutes. Then I got up and kept walking along the path the lady took.
Wait , Before I start this paragraph if any of you reading this don’t like people being shot, skip this paragraph.
I army crawled behind a bush hoping I imagined what I just saw. I peeked out from behind the bush and immediately pulled my head back in. Yes, there was a squad of izan troops headed my way. I made my way through the bush ,so I might be able to shot a couple of them . Oh by the way did I tell you I picked up a sticky grenade from the dead solider. The squad was now right outside my bush . I reached out and stuck my grenade to a solider’s boot. He kept walking, unaware of the deadly bomb stuck to his foot. I heard the explosion and saw three Izan bodies go flying into the air . I quickly drew my "borrowed" gun (which happened to by a sniper rifle) and pulled the trigger. Two more Izan troops crumpled to the floor.


 Unfortunately the last Izan troop found my hiding place and handcuffed me. Then the next thing I know I’m on my knee’s outside of the bush with no weapon’s. My mind flashed a idea. "Can you please roll down my shirt ,by my neck" ? I asked the solider. "Sure" he stuttered. Obviously he was a junior recruit . I flipped a rock up into the air and hoped it would it my neck. It did, I was ,once again, engulfed in white light. I heard a satisfying crack of handcuffs breaking. The solider looked like a hippo with his gaping mouth. I wrapped my Komodo dragon claws around the solider’s neck and slammed him into the ground, leaving a nice size human shape dent.
