As the sun rose over the horizon, a bird fluttered by the window of a house, or mansion basically. Inside, two people were asleep in a bed. Seth, the twenty-three year old elf/human hybrid Rider, woke up. He yawned and stretched. He then turned to his left and looked down at his pregnant wife, Angelica. She shifted a bit, with a smile on her face. Seth smiled, leaned down, and kissed her on the cheek. Angelica giggled and kissed him on the lips. "Good morning," he said. "Good morning baby," said Angelica. Seth got out of bed. He put on his slippers and robe and opened the door. "Want some breakfast?" he asked. "Yes please," said Angelica, sitting up. Seth smiled and ran downstairs. As he reached the kitchen, he went out the back door and looked around. "Shadow!" he yelled. A loud flapping noise came from the trees. A large black shape emerged from the tree tops. It landed in front of Seth, sending a thud through the ground. It was Shadow, who was eight years old. The black dragon roared, sending vibrations.

Seth laughed. "Mornin' buddy," he said, his voice deep. "Good morning Seth," thought Shadow, his mental voice even deeper. Shadow was a large dragon. When he went up against the Dungeon People and Lizards with Seth, he was the size of two houses. Shadow was now the size of a jet plane. A white female dragon, a few inchers smaller than Shadow, flew from the trees. She landed next to Shadow. "Good morning," she thought to Seth. "Good morning Angel," said Seth. "You should be expecting the eggs to be laid when?" asked Seth. "In about a week or so," said a voice. They saw Angelica walk, or more like waddle, over to them. "Baby, you're supposed to be in bed," said Seth. "I needed to walk around," said Angelica. Seth chuckled and kissed her on the lips. "Well, I'm getting breakfast started," he said. "Good. I'm going hunting for Angel," thought Shadow. "And we're joining him," thought a voice. They all saw a group of white dragons and black dragons, five on each side, emerge from the trees. "We're hungry" said one.

Linnea had been called back from the Akatsuki campaign because of slayers. She had another former member for a new vassal *flashback* "So you made it un?" Linnea nodded "You with or against me?" The blond bomber snickered "With, I'm joining you. At least I get to pick what's holding me down." The blond knelt down right in front of another Akatsuki member the puppet master Sasori. "I don't know how this goes..." He handed her a lump of explosive clay and threw off the cloak "From now on I obey you rider. You arn't going to take my freedom away." Linnea gave the blond a chance to call the thing off "Are you sure you want to do this? To serve me until I A. release you or B. one of us dies." The blond nodded as Itachi saw what was going down. "Well I have at least two witnesses to the fact I gave you a fair chance to not tie yourself down. So I accept your aligiance to me, and return the clay so you can use it in my service." *end flashback* Murtugh had chewed her out until Itachi mentioned that Linnea had given him a chance to call the whole thing off. Arget shared the memory with Murtugh and he calmed down. Now Linnea, Arget, Itachi, Akane, her students that survived that battle, Fang, Lin, and Linnea's new vassal were at a hidden beach. Linnea had dubbed it Little Kokomo but refered to it as her little corner of tropical paradise. She Lin, and Fang were lobster diving for the main course of dinner. Itachi was getting firewood with his little brother and everyone was pitching in for a big seafood cookout. Arget was keeping a lookout for this one pesky nidwhal that kept bothering him, sharks, sea serpents of course and other hazardous marine predators. A quarter of his size the little nidwhal was ambitious to say the least. Linnea had to train her students how to handle slayers and now fanghur. Some slayers had trained them as battle mounts. The subterrainian reptiles who had caused so many problems eight years ago were being studied by some dragon scientists. The one in the Farthen Dur zoo had been trained to do some tricks. The Akatsuki campaign would have to wait... 

In the little town, a nice, beautiful brown and white house sat on a nice land of property. A largee tree house, big enough for a space shuttle to land on, rested in the back. In the house, a twenty-three year old man was watching TV. He blinked as the sun rays peered through the shades. It was Caleb Jones. He looked at the clock. "I better get breakfast started," he said. He tightened his robe and went into the kitchen. Thirty-eight minutes later, breakfast was ready. He brought out two plates and filled both up with scrambled eggs, bacon, waffles, toast, and rolls. He then poured two glasses of juice. Caleb then went upstairs. He entered his bed room and saw his sleeping wife, Monica Roland. Caleb smiled and picked her up. Monica woke up and smiled. "Morning," they both said. Caleb carried her downstairs and sat her in a chair. "I'll go get Manny," he said. Caleb ran upstairs and went into the bedroom. His one year old son was asleep in the bed as well. Caleb picked him up and carried him downstairs.

In a little cave in the forests closed to Farthen Dur, or should I say the biggest cave in the forest that could fit a space shuttle sized dragon, the gold and red female dragon Aphelia, mother of fourteen, was waking up. She yawned and stretched. "Today seems like a good day to fly," she thought. Behind her, were her four hatchlings Mud Digger, the brown male, Cheren, one of the dark indigo females, Pine, the dark green male, and Crystal, the white female. They were the size of small planes. "Good morning my hatchlings," she thought. "Morning mother," they all chanted. Aphelia smiled and walked out of the cave. Her tongue flickered out of her mouth as she tasted the air. "Who would like to join me in a hunt?" asked Aphelia. "I think we all want to mother," said Mud Digger. Aphelia nodded and leaped into the air. Her sons and daughters followed. They together caught a whole herd of deer. They ate and then flew into Farthen Dur. "Hello mother!" exclaimed a deep, mental voice. They all turned to see Aiden.

"Alright. Go hunting. I'm about to make breakfast for Angelica and I," said Seth. Shadow and Angel turned to their sons and daughters. "Let's go get some food," thought Shadow. "Yes papa," said a female black dragon named Twilight. They flew into the air. "Oh yes, Seth can you check on Angelica right now? I think she might need your assistance," thought Angel. "I will," thought Seth. He watched them fly away. Seth ran back into the house, up the stairs, and into the bed room. Angelica was sitting up, breathing heavily. "What's wrong?" he asked. "I think....I think she....she's COMING!" yelled Angelica. Seth felt her mind as she sever the connection from Angel. "I don't want Angel freaking out," she said. Seth picked Angelica up and rushed out in the front. "Aw crap," he said. "I'll run you to the hospital," he said. "No! Call Caleb, or Riley, or even Brianna!" yelled Angelica. "Babe, Brianna lost her dragon eight years ago," said Seth. "Well get somebody!" yelled Angelica. Seth ran to the hospital, making it.

Linnea had just grabbed a huge lobster when a very small nidwhal grabbed it. The little guy was too small to make a meal out of her possibly a hatchling. The lobster was possibly more than the rascal could stomach and that thing weighed about ten pounds. Linnea just grabbed another one before going up for air. Naruto was goofing off like usual and antagonizing a nurse shark. Unless provolked the shark was harmless. If it weren't for the fact that it could break Naruto's hand or face with those jaws Linnea would have told him to leave the poor thing alone, in fact she had mentioned many times that he should really leave the thing alone. Naruto got hit in the face with a tail fin and Linnea thought it was hilarious. When the blond rider surfaced Linnea choked out "You should have stuck with chasing Sakura with that crab you moron!" Linnea had a hard time staying afloat because she was laughing so hard "You just got slapped upside the head by a shark!" She paddled to shore and laid in the surf laughing holding the lobster bag. Arget started laughing too. Everybody else was looking at her funny untill she choked out what had happened. Naruto got laughed at and Linnea thanked the shark telepathically for not biting Naruto. There was enough lobster, clams, crab, fish, and oysters to go around now... Linnea had brought watermelons, yams, butter, and other things to go with the seafood too. Using a tidal pool to keep everything fresh untill dinner Linnea laid out in the sand and sang the song that had inspired the name of this beach, Kokomo by the Beach Boys "Aruba Jamaica Ooo I wanna take ya, Bermuda Bahama, come on pretty mama..."

Caleb placed Manny in his high chair. The little on year old woke up. "Morning baby," said Monica in a sweet voice. She placed a bib on Manny. Manny giggled and hit the little table on his high chair. Monica smiled and kissed Manny on his cheek, making him giggle. Monica then kissed Caleb on the lips. The three of them then ate, with Monica feeding Manny. Caleb laughed. After breakfast, Caleb got dressed and brushed his teeth. He then went out in the back, hooking on a sheath to his belt. "You're going to work?" asked Monica. "Yeah baby, i got to," said Caleb. "Ok. Be careful though," said Monica. "Always am," said Caleb, smiling. The two kissed. Caleb then picked up his green Rider sword, Oakmar and sheathed it. He kissed Manny on the head and went out in the backyard. He looked up to the large tree house and called, "Vinezilla!" A jet plane sized, green male dragon looked out the tree house. It was Vinezilla. He leaped out of the tree house and landed on all fours on the ground. "Morning Vine," said Caleb.

"Aiden!" exclaimed Aphelia's children. They tackled their half brother. "Hey! Come on guys! Enough!!" Aiden exclaimed. He then laughed. Aphelia smiled. She then noticed the saddle bags on Aiden. Wolfsbayne was in one. "Morning Aiden. Morning Wolfsbayne," she thought. "Morning mother," Aiden thought. "Good morning Aphelia," thought Wolfsbayne. "How is Sarah doing?" asked Aphelia. "She's fine," said a voice. Sarah came walking towards them, holding an eight year old boy's hand. "Why hello there Silan," thought Aphelia. "Hi Ms. Aphelia," said the little boy. Sarah smiled. "He's been learning the ways of the dragons and proper language," she said. "Ah. One day, Ii hope he becomes a fine Rider," thought Aphelia. "Just like my daddy," said Silan. Aphelia looked at Sarah, who cleared her throat and looked a little sad. "I miss him too," thought Aiden. "As do I," thought a voice. Ghost landed next to Sarah. "He was my best friend and partner-in-mind," he thought. Aphelia nodded. Sarah did too. "You ready to go?"

Linnea and her group ate their dinner chatting and laughing. She'd invited Aiden, Ghost, and Sarah but they'd declined. Tonight was Linnea's party to celebrate her lost student properly. Randy had loved these cookouts. Linnea proposed a toast "To my lost student Randy, may he find peace in the afterlife." Everybody else held their red solo cups up in the air and said in unison "To Randy..." The party continued into the night. Linnea told stories about Randy. Deidara learned more about his lady and how much she cared about those close to her. Linnea looked around at all the faces around her. Battles would be on the horizon and she might lose everyone or even die herself. She had to remember every moment with those she cared about and was responsible for. She almost was afraid to blink lest she miss something. Arget did his best to soothe his partner's troubled mind "Linnea we'll all make it. The newest students beat the odds and survived the first battle, in the event that we lose more it is fate. If we die it is fate, what will happen will happen it's nothing to worry about. Just enjoy the time all of us have together." Linnea knew he was right but if she lost Arget if it didn't kill her instantly she'd take her own life. Arget was what kept her together and sane. The suicide would be her last sane act, and Arget knew this...

Seth was pacing back and forth in the waiting room. Angelica had went into labor as soon as they arrived. Seth paced some more. He then felt Shadow and Angel's minds as they reached the hospital. "Why didn't she inform me of this?" asked Ange. "She didn't wanna' freak you out," thought Seth. "Yes, welll Angel is still her partner-in-mind," thought Shadow. "I understand that Shadow," thought Seth. The door then opened. Seth quickly turned to see a female nurse. She was smiling. "Well, what happened?" asked Seth. "She wants you to come in," said the nurse. Seth dashed into the room and was at his wife's side. Angelica was cradling a baby in her arms. "She's beautiful," said Angelica. Seth was stunned. In front of him was his baby girl, his new born daughter. Seth leaked a tear. Angelica looked up at him, tears in her eyes. "She's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen," said Seth. Angelica smiled. The two then kissed. Seth showed Shadow the images of his new daughter. Shadow released a triumphant bugle.

Linnea huffed. She was at her day job, she worked in the Farthen Dur general hospital. Sakura was her healing apprentice/assisting nurse. They were trying to give an old dwarf woman a physical. The old woman insisted she didn't need to be there and was giving them a hard time. "Why can't you see I'm as healthy as a horse?" Linnea sighed "We're just making sure ma'm, please corporate with us." Sakura spoke kindly "It will put your family's minds at ease if a doctor says you are just fine too." The old dwarf huffed "Fine..." The elderly dwarf's joints were swollen with arthritis but she seemed immune to the pain. Linnea finished her exam and told the old woman "Other than severe arthritis you're just fine." "I don't have arthritis just old bones!" "Old bones often have arthritis it's very common at your age. I can prescribe medication, or herbal remedies if you like. Just to ease the pain in your old bones." The old woman actually smiled, "I can make my own salves missy I'm older than you." Linnea showed the silver mark on her right hand "I beg to differ, I'm 2033 ma'm. Senior riders need day jobs just like everyone else." The woman laughed "That's because you don't have a clan to lean on." "True, but the odds of a human rider being accepted into a dwarven clan are slim. My Erbithal is a raritey... Besides I lost a student 8 years ago and I'm still not up to trying to join a clan." "You are Linnea arn't you? I am honored." "Yes I am... can you keep it to yourself though? I don't want swarms of people coming here to catch a glimpse of me." "Of course my Lady." Linnea replied "Please just call me Linnea, I only expect a title from my students." "Very well. I'll be going now that I am done here." The old dwarven woman left laughing." Sakura smiled "She reminds me of my grandma." "I never knew mine... back then people only lived to be up to 60 80 if they were lucky. Lifespans have grown since the days of my youth..." 

After work Linnea found Deidara and Itachi sparring. Sasuke was watching with Naruto. Both of the men would have been blurs to normal eyes but Linnea was following every move with ease. Arget and Akane walked up to Linnea and Arget asked how Linnea's day had been despite knowing full well how it went. Linnea mentally chit chatted with her partner while Akane was watching her rider. Akane had decided on having the growth inhibiting spell placed on her, so did Linnea and Arget's newest students so they were still small and fast. The spell also counteracted the effect on the mind that inhibiting their growth might cause. Linnea excelled in the mental and arcane disciplines of the riders. She was also the fastest rider but in brute stregnth she was very weak. High energy levels gave her the stamina to cast powerful spells, her ability to drain the energy of the environment, and her habit of weakening her foes by draining them gave her the energy to make up for her physical weakness. But no energy around her and she was screwed. Linnea was aware of her weaknesses and her advantages. She always told her students 'Your body and mind can become your weapons, and like any weapon you choose and have time to work with you must be aware of it's weaknesses and it's stregnths. One must know how much it can take and everything it can do both in battle and outside of battle. One must also know their weaknesses and how to compensate for them. One can even use their weakness to their advantage." Linnea had proven this many times in her long life. She wasn't called Linnea the Clever for nothing.

Caleb hugged Vinezilla's arm. Daisy, Monica's pink female dragon leaped from the tree house as well. Caleb said good morning to her and then strapped a saddle to Vinezilla. "Do you two have to go to work?" asked Daisy. "Yes, Daisy, we do," thought Caleb. "Fine, but I have to tell you something about those three eggs you bonded of mine," thought Daisy. "What about them?" asked Caleb, thinking about the three eggs she laid two weeks ago. There was a purple one, a light green one, and a copper one. "Well, they're all males," thought Daisy. "And what's wrong with that?" thought Vinezilla. "I was hoping Manny might wanted a female, like Eragon & Saphira," thought Daisy. "Well, we'll get to that when the time comes," said Caleb. He and Vinezilla flew off. As they flew, Riley and Gray Matter, two childhood friends, joined them in the sky. "Did ya' hear?" asked Riley with his mind. "What?" asked Caleb. "Seth and Angelica just had their baby this morning. Its a girl," thought Riley. Vinezilla released a bugle.

Aphelia flew with everyone to one of the schools in Farthen Dur. When they landed, Sarah climbed off of Aiden with Silan. The two entered the school. Aphelia walked behind the school and saw older kids training. They looked about Seth's age when he arrived at Farthen Dur. These young ones didn't have dragons yet. "I wonder if they have the Rider bug in them?" she asked Aiden. "They probably do, it's just that their parents aren't ready for them to have one yet," thought Aiden. Aphelia looked at Aiden. "Does Silan have an egg waiting for him?" she asked. "Yes. Four actually," thought Aiden. "My mate Lenora, who is a lovely wild teal dragon, has four eggs that Sarah bonded," thought Aiden. "Ah. Color?" asked Aphelia. "Gray, green, dandilion, and brown," thought Aiden. "Hm. Maybe he should have a white female like his father had a white male," thought Aphelia. "Maybe," thought Aiden. "But Ghost doesn't have any other hatchlings save for Angel," thought Aiden. "Oh," thought Aphelia. Sarah came out of the school.
