Life of a dragon slave: Prologue
Around the year 2035, humans have found a genetic link between dinosaurs and dragons. Dragons have been around before the dinosaurs, way long before. They have been here for millions of years but they have died off when the dinosaurs roamed the earth.
Human scientist have found their bones deep beneath the earth where dragon bones have remained solidified. The scientist have found out that their bones were almost twice as strong as humans. And they were almost humanoid, they stood up on their hind legs and walked around perfectly. Human scientist thought that with dragons alive, they could help study early earth and beyond and how old dragons were. They immediately began trying rebuild the structure of the dragons and then, rebuild DNA using some reptiles along with some organic tissue of some dinosaurs.
Time went on and the search for bringing dinosaurs and dragons back was close to success. However, humans had a general idea for the dragons. They decided to drop the dinosaurs except for the raptors since of their vast intelligence, they decided to use the dragons as slaves. The whole human race voted for it and then in 2040, dragons were reanimated. Many scientist kept some to study and found that they live extraordinary long lives. They have some bodily features much like a humans. They can lift many times their weights and have different colors in their scales. Only four types of dragons were born. Three with no wings.
Fire breathers with no wings.
Wind flyers with large wings.
Water divers with no wings.
Earth Crawlers with no wings.
Fire breathers must have a muzzle outside of their master's house.
Wind flyers must have their wings pierced to allow little flight and tracking beckons.
Water walkers must carry a liquid tablet under their tongues to keep them from dehydrating and are allowed near oceans.
Earth crawlers must have a homing beckon on them and their claws must be shortened to half their size.
This is how it works for the four of them.
The dragons began first as hatchlings, coming from large eggs and raised in facilities. Then after time, they were taught to behave normally and act properly when it came to being a slave. If they didn't follow normal rules or their masters, they would be punished by their or master's choosing. Once the dragons were sold, only a few rights were made for dragons:
They had the right to rest, eat, shower, work on certain jobs, and mate to expand their race.
The hatchlings have to be five months before they could work as a slave.
They have the right to have a living space within the master's home.
They have the right to go to a hospital, be nursed or healed in till such time when they can resume their work again.
And lastly, the adult dragons have the right to protect their child from cruel punishment and accept full responsibility and take the hatchling's punishment if desired.
Anything else, the masters decided what to do with their slaves and may do what ever he/she wants with their dragons. That is the law, that is how it is.
The story begins 35 years later.
John had just come from work and now heading home late at night. His work had tired him and he had to go home to clean up his papers.
The twenty five year old, black haired, blued eyed human was driving away home in his silver car in nothing but business clothes. His home was around the corner of a short street. He was the only who lived their since his home was so big. Three stories tall which included a attic as the third, and a basement.
His big job for working as Lockheed Martin's vice president, he had to be working on one of the most sophisticated military planes in the world. The job is grand yet it is very tiring on having to work on meetings, public views of the new planes and not to mention the new models that take time to assemble and put out for the military, it was all very hard.
He pulled in on his house which is top to a small hill where there was a large hill in his back yard. His back yard was sometimes in the shade of the mountain and not to mention, his back yard had a large cave within the hill. The cave was as tall as his house and it was almost dome so it had nowhere to go to.
He stepped out of his car and walked to his front door. The door recognized him in a mechanical scan and the door opened. Inside, he entered his large living room where a giant wall was left opened for using his hologram tv. In the middle of the living room was were a large part of the floor was two feet below and where three couches were all there facing the wall.
He walked in and turned on the hologram for work and turned into the news. He didn't pay much attention as he walked to the kitchen from his living room. He grabbed a glass from his counter and grabbed some juice before he went to the outside to the back yard.
Outside he walked to the backyard which stretched a good sixty feet all the way to the cave where a small river that came from within the hill, surrounded a small piece of land where a tombstone laid alongside a picture and was surrounded by flowers. The river came from both sides and met together and lead to a underground tunnel.
John slowly stepped over the river and kneeled at the tombstone.
It was in carving that read; Here lies Liynda, the greatest friend and the best daughter I had. She will rest in peace and be forever free from slavery. January 16, 2070 to January 14 2075. Two days before her fifth birthday.
John smiled lightly. His best friend and his only daughter like person was a wind dragon. She was five years old when she died. She was his first slave but he never meant it. Yeah she would do some house work but she always stayed playful with him. The first day she arrived she was terrified out of her mind. But then John had been kind enough to take her as a slave but keep her as a friend. She then took a liking to him and the two of them became best friends. Time would pass and the two would now consider each other family.
Two months ago though, some colleagues came over and saw her playing outside while John was inside working. His colleagues thought that it would be okay for them to punish her for so little of reason and beat her brutally. It wasn't till John heard the screams of his friend that he ran outside and saw that she was beaten by his colleagues, that he fought them off and ran to Liynda's aid.
His colleagues were sued for beating a slave without permission from the master. John didn't care about that. His friend was badly hurt and he did what he could to help her. Doctors and even the people who take care of dragons couldn't help her. He did what he could and hopefully with his love and support for her, it would do the trick.
Sadly no. Two days before her birthday, he walked into her room with breakfast. He found her on her bed, not moving and not breathing. He out of all the humans, cried for the loss of a dragon. She was like a daughter to him and he loved her like one. He made the burial in the back and he let no one see her especially other humans. He only had one thing and that was taken from him. Since then he hasn't had another slave and he didn't think he would want to.
He smiled again with tears in his eyes as he looked down at the picture. It was him and her together for Christmas last year. She looked so adorable with a socking on her foot and a Santa hat on her. The best thing in his life was no gone. He leaned in and gave the tombstone a kiss before he walked back into his house.
He didn't know what to do know. He was alone, he was heartbroken and he had no one to care for. Despite having to have them as slaves, he cared for more about dragons now then ever before in his life. When he was smaller, he used to think that he would be able to command dragons like animals. But now he realized, with Liynda, that dragons are just like humans or as he thought, they were better then humans. No dragon should have to suffer from human causes much less brutality. He was pretty sure that that was what Liynda wanted. For dragons and humans to live together in harmony.
He sat down upon his couch and watched the hologram. His thoughts of Liynda were interrupted when a advertisement came up. A man dressed in a sellers outfit was making a sell. He was selling his wind dragon slaves. They consisted of two parents with one teen and seven hatchlings. All together for eighteen grand, which in human terms was a bargain. All together. Separated was at least two hundred each.
John knew that if he were to buy them, that they would probably hate him the first time they see him. Yet he wanted to buy them because any human would just buy one of the family members and that would tear up the family. He lost thought when the man spoke of how they fight back and the parents will be willingly to take a beaten for their hatchlings. However, the man just smacked one of the hatchlings and the parents could only growl as a man had just smacked one of their children. That had done it! He was going to buy those slaves and make sure they earn the best of health.
There was a number at the bottom of the screen and John had immediately got his phone and dialed.
"Great!" I thought to myself. That human has sold me and my family off. Now not only does my family have to deal with another human but now that my little brothers and sisters are only a few weeks away from their fifth month, they will be forced to work.
I hated seeing my family work. I mostly did the work for my mother and father though they try to do the work themselves, I stop them and all the punishment they are to receive, I take it for them and I got the scars to prove it. The humans think that I treat my parents like old timers but I only do it because they I care about them.
Its been a couple of days since that human that calls himself our master, since he launched that advertisement and some human bought us. The only thing that I am extremely grateful for him was that he bought all of my family together. That was only smile for the day. I didn't hear much but the human discussed business deal. To bad though. The human on the other line said that he would have to wait for four weeks. He said that he needed to rebuilt his house so we could live more comfortably and he told the master that not to harm in anyway in till we got there.
I knew that meant trouble for us but I knew that I am not going to let my family be hurt. I would do anything I can to protect them all.
John had immediately began construction at a underground shelter, that he hoped that can be the best home for the family of dragons. He asked for the construction workers to do as his design. A large part of the backyard, nearly all the way to the cave but just some ten feet away. He made sure to hide the burial by putting a large fence, wooden fence so no one can see it even though it pained him to do so.
Forty feet of the backyard was destroyed and was built thirteen feet underground. It took one week to dig the giant hole and put in designs for the rooms. The second week was putting cement mix, steel and some wood for holding the structure and the roof built were fake grass is made. The third week was the pluming, electrical, and equipments needed for housing. The rooms were four in all. One for the parents, which consisted their own private bathroom with a Jacuzzi and a small pathway away from the main room, so in case they want to be alone, they have no worries for their children.
One of them was for the teen herself, a big bed, a large mirror and a wardrobe. However, he didn't know if these dragons wore clothes or not. He was pretty sure that they at least have something to cover the female's breasts and lower half of their bodies. Same with the males in the lower half.
The other bedrooms were for the children to decided and each room had two closets for their clothes. Along with that, their were two other bathrooms with full bathtubs. Sinks for washing up on, a small living room where they can play and watch the hologram. And last he added a bonus. A small walkway so the living room can enter his living room and can have their meals there, which took the fourth week. At the other side of the living room lead another way to the outside of the back yard. He decided to built a shed on top of that.
Once everything was done, he paid the workers only getting questions like "Why build this?" and "Who's it for?" John just smiled and said. "For friends."
Once all painting and fake grass was patched up, the underground home was ready and his arrivals would absolutely love it.
Finally! We get to leave this bastard and yet another bastard to worry about. Thought I am praying that this bastard of a human, doesn't force us to live in a twelve foot shed like this bastard. But then again, its not like I will get my wish.
We were brought to the house of our new master and gods damn! This guy must've been like a fucking president or something! This is probably the first three story house that I have seen. It looked like my family and two others could live in there. Anyways, the human was happy to see us and from our old master, he got our names and they both exchanged business. He first went to my parents, Lyya my mother and Nyal, my father. They were a bit off eased that he was smiling at them and I was disturbed myself by it as well. Then he walked to me. I hated him the second he laid eyes on me. But even though he saw my anger, he still greeted me with a smile. "Hello to you "Verdera."
I only gave him a snort before he looked towards my brothers and sisters. He called them all by their names, my three sisters; Kila, Vesha, and Cyna. Then my four brothers; Zen, Myan, Nervol and Fanh. He took us the back yard where our shed was. I was not surprised by how small it was. However, something was amiss from all this. He talked about how we would be living in here but he kept glancing back to see if our old master was there. He heard the human get in the car and starting the engine. He stopped talking and walked past my parents and looked over the fence to see if he had gone.
Once he was sure the human was gone, he sighed. A relived sighed. "I thought he would never leave." he said loudly. He then turned to us with a big smile "Alright then. Now I know what your thinking that you all are going to live in the shed well, your not. You all will be living under it."
I was confused about this along with my parents. He walked back to us and opened the shed to show only six beds. However, he kneeled down and opened a almost camouflaged door that had stairs going down. He opened and motion for us come in. My parents and I were hesitant about it but we had no choice. We followed him and all of us went down stairs.
What I saw down there, I couldn't believe what I saw. It was almost like a home underground. There were rooms, a living room with a large hologram viewer. He walked in and smiled to us all. "Alright then, I have build this all for you. There are four rooms for you all. One for you two," he said pointing at my parents. "And then you," he pointed to me. "The two others are for you all to decide. There are three bathrooms here, sinks for you all to wash in and I guess that is pretty much it."
I couldn't believe what I had just heard and seen. But then I started to think back and then I knew he was up to something. He build us this so he thinks that we would fall for him and then when we do, he will make us all his work while he just lays back and relaxes. Well like I said before, I am going to do whatever it takes to make sure my family is safe, protected and I will do all the work. "So what." I said to him
Both my parents and him looked at me. "So what if you build this for us. Then what? You think that this will make us fall for you so we can do all your hard work and make us work all crazy for you? Well I don't think that this little trick of yours will work on us!" Both of my parents were now frightened that I would most likely get hit for that remark.
But all the human did was shook his head. "No."
Both me and my parents stopped. "what?" we all said.
He just smiled. "No I don't expect you to do all my work for me and I will not make you go crazy to do it. I only want you to just relax here and enjoy your place here."
I wanted to bite him in the face. How dare he make a joke like that! He is trying to make a mockery out of us!
"You lie!" I growled to him.
He shook his head again and spoke calmly. "No." He approached us and looked at me and my parents. "If I wanted you to do that stuff, would have I give you like a whip when you got here as a traditional standard to welcome slaves? No I only want you all to get used to this because this right," he said as he waved his hand to the whole place, "This, I built for you all. I didn't just buy you so you can do all my work for me. I bought you because when I saw the ad on the hologram I thought that some normal dumbass human was just going to sell his dragon, but when I saw that your whole family was for sale, I knew that if someone was going to buy you, they would only buy two or three of you and your family would break. I am not like those humans out there who are heartless and want to make dragons suffer. I only want is for us to be at peace with each other. Nothing less."
I didn't know whether I should just take my chances and rip his face out or... should I believe this speech. I could only remain quite. He saw our silence and looked towards my siblings who were looking in the rooms.
He smiled at them before turning around the other way which seemed to lead into his house. Before he left, I spoke out again with a calmer yet still a bit unease voice. "So what do you want us to do tomorrow?"
He stopped and smiled lightly. "I only want you all to rest, get used to this place and stay up as late as you want and wake up tomorrow like if it was a new day." And with that he walked up a ramp and opened it to his house and closed it.
I was stumped. I didn't know what to do in my situation. My parents were quite yet they began to look for their room. They found it next to ours and were both stunned that it was made especially for them. The large queen sized bed, the bathroom, and even a shower with a Jacuzzi. My mother was on the verge of tears and my father held onto her. This human just gave my parents the best gift they could ever have. My siblings were happily playing amongst themselves and running into the others room, finding which one to sleep in.
My mother was still tearing and my father decided to take her to their room. He closed the door behind them and I guess now that it along with the small hallway, was sound proof so there will be no interruptions.
I decided it was best for me to find my own room. I guess I found it right away. There was a single bed that was large enough for me. I was stunned to see a large mirror and my own wardrobe. He did this for us all and I didn't know if I should scream in anger or cry for all this he had done for us.
My siblings had decided boys on one side and girls on the other. They all had their own beds and they each had a thick layer of blankets. It was the first time they had a descent bed to sleep on. Even though it was early evening, everyone was turning in for the night. My parents and my siblings were all asleep except me. I didn't know what to think of. I had my own room, my parents had their own room and as did my siblings. We all were living in a underground house that would have been the best house we have ever been in. I was so lost now. I actually cried myself asleep. Usually when I cry myself to sleep its because I am tired or I got punished but I actually cried my self to sleep through happiness. Happiness, the first time it had entered my life!
