Draconian Tides Pt.6

I woke up the next morning to see everyone else was still asleep, I sat up and went to my bathroom brush my teeth. When I got out, everyone was beginning to wake up, "good morning everyone" I said and they all mumbled. "what, am I the only one who woke up in a good mood".

Corbyn answered my question before anyone could say anything when he said "oh yeah, I'm gonna be a dragon" he got up and started cheering.

"Dude, keep it down, my parents are still asleep" I said.

"Sorry" he said.

"It's cool, if I had known I was going to change, I would have cheered". I said, laughing.

"Wait, wait, Corbyn's going to be a dragon?" Roger asked.

"Yea, he had the dream last night" I said.

"How would you know?" he asked.

"Because me and Will also had it last night, we have it every night for right now" I said.

Looking down, Roger said "when will I change".

"Well, me, Will, and Corbyn have or are going to become dragons, so most likely, it'll happen tonight" I said.

"That would be awesome" he said.

"So, are we going to wait till Corbyn changes, or what" Will asked.

Suddenly, my phone began to buzz, I looked at it and I had a text from my aunt, It read "can you pick up the groceries today, we are really busy and we're sure you can carry them with your "Draconic Strength" LOL". I rolled my eyes and closed my phone. I turned to the others and said "would you guys help me, my parents want me to pick up some groceries and I don't think I can carry everything, even if I am stronger as a dragon".

"Alright" They said, we began to get ready to leave, I got some new clothes on and then put my finger near the electrical socket and shifted to dragon form after the shock. I headed downstairs to find Will was already in his dragon form, we grabbed a few burlap carriers and headed outside. Corbyn walked over and jumped up on my back while Roger got on Will's and we took off for the store.

When we got there, Corbyn jumped off my back, when I looked over, he looked winded. "whats wrong?" I asked

"You flew a little fast for me, I'll be fine though" he said.

"Sorry about that" I said as Will and Roger landed beside us. Me and Will shifted back to human form and we were about to head inside when a voice from behind us said "holy crap, that was awesome", we turned to see a kid about our age standing behind us gawking. "not good" I said, "please, you can't tell anyone about this, okay, we don't want this to get out".

"Okay, I won't tell anyone, on one condition" he said.

"What condition?" I asked.

"You guys change me to a dragon" he said.

"We can't" me and Will said simultaneously

"And why not?" he asked.

"Because we can't change others, the only reason we're dragons is because it just happened" I said.

"Oh" he said, looking dismayed.

"Don't worry, it may happen to you at some point, you never know" I said reassuringly, "what's your name" I asked him.

"Isaac" he said.

"Well, do you want to hang out for a while" I asked, I don't know why I did, it just seemed like the right thing.

"Sure" he said.

So we all headed into the store and picked up the stuff we needed. We headed up to the counter and I shut off my phone again. We were in kind of a rush due to the fact that it was 2:30, another hour and Corbyn would change. We got everything put away and headed to our hiding spot, Will used a nearby puddle to change and I pulled out my phone and used the charge port to give myself a jolt. Corbyn and Isaac climbed on my back and Roger got on Will's and we flew home.

When we got there, we headed inside and set the stuff down, we then went into the living room and watched TV. After about half an hour, Corbyn said he felt really cold. We all turned and saw that he was sprouting blue scales just like Will's, however he also seemed to have white rune-like patterns running the length of his body and instead of just appearing, they seemed to grow from his skin. "This is awesome" Corbyn said as his hands and feet began to change at the same time instead of separately, his tail and wings then grew in and he gained a white membrane between the wings. His face began to elongate into a muzzle and he grew spines out of his back, though they were a little more curved then mine. Once his transformation finished, he looked over himself with a huge smile on his face. "this is so cool, I can't believe I'm a dragon" he said.

"You remember how we used our abilities?, Corbyn" I asked

"Yea, I do" he said.

"Let's go see some of yours" I said.

"Sounds good to me" he said. We went downstairs to head out the back door, my parents were home at the time and when Corbyn came down, my mom turned to me and said "really, another one of you changed, when will it end?"

I replied "I can't say I know, I think Roger might change soon as well" I said. When Isaac came down, they asked "who's this?"

I said "his name is Isaac, he caught us changing from dragon to human, yet for some reason, I felt that having him hang with us was a good idea".

"Well, okay, just don't destroy anything, I'm already mad about the damage done to the lawn" my aunt said, turning to Will. He looked down and said "sorry about that". We headed outside and me and Will shifted to our dragon forms, Will then filled a bucket with water and placed it in front of Corbyn. "Alright Corbyn, see if you can freeze the water" I said. He looked at the bucket and put his finger in, the water instantly freezed on contact, but his hand kept going. When it stopped, he began to move his hand around like the ice was liquid, I put my hand on the ice, but it stopped at the top. "two mysteries down" I said, "your breath powers next". Corbyn stepped forward and opened his mouth. "ah, ah, please aim for the sky, I don't want to tick my parents off even more" I said, he looked up and after a few seconds, a stream of snow started to come out of his mouth, he shut it and the snow stopped. He raised his hands and a blue beam started to come out, when it hit the tree across the way, the tree froze over. "oops" Corbyn said, "sorry about that.

"It's cool man, I'll take the heat" I said, a little dismayed.

Will and Roger started laughing, "whats so funny?" I asked.

"You made a pun without realizing it" Roger said, I thought about what I said and realized the pun.

"Seriously, that's the thing you point out, I'm going to be in trouble and that's all you think about" I said.

They both just shrugged, we went back inside and sat down in front of the TV, Will, Roger Corbyn and Isaac all made sure it was okay with their parents before staying. Will and Corbyn also alerted their parents that they were dragons now, needless to say, they weren't happy about it, but they both convinced them not to tell anyone. At around 9:00, we shut off the TV and went to sleep. When midnight came around we woke up and looked around when Roger sat up and asked "what's going on?".
