Chapter 3 - Chapter 2 (Josephs PoV) It Begins...

I sat there for just a few moments, as I was a bit confused as to what it was that Plyma had meant. I thought it through my head for just a bit longer as well, as it then suddenly hit me. I spun myself across the tree, right as he had turned his head near where it was that I had been at.

It was not the fact that I thought that he could possibly hurt me. I knew that it was not possible now, as he had ran at me in several of my dreams, but nothing had happened in any of them. At the same time as well, I wanted him to see me, so that I could get out of this as soon as possible.

I shook my head as well, as I knew that this was important, and John, and hell, even the whole world was looking up to me at times like this. I closed my eyes for just a but longer, as if I knew that he was still looking around for where it was that I might be at.

It almost seemed, in a weird sort of way, that we almost shared some strange bond with each other. I knew the dragon would get very angry if any one was to say that to him as well. It was true though, and it really was not a bond that I wanted to share, as much as he did.

I kept my eyes closed for just a bit longer as well, as I still felt it a bit too risky to poke my head back out. I just did not know when it was, that it might be safe to do so. I sat there for a bit more time, and then I heard Joergen speak to Plyma.

"Are you sure? Does it really matter anyways? Himla is broken right now, even if he is here, what are the odds that they are near each other?" He said back to Plyma. I almost wanted to laugh at the fact of what it was that he had just said to him as well.

Everything that he had just said was not possible, was in fact true. Himla was back to at least some what of the state that he had been in before all of this, and we were just a couple kilometers away from their camp as well. At least I was fairly certain that they were still living there.

I held in the laugh, as I just stayed there for a bit longer, still not wanting to risk poking my head out at all. I really did not see any reason to do so either. All I really needed, was to listen in on what it was that he had they had to say to one another.

After standing in the same spot by the tree for a bit longer, it seemed like Plyma had finally given up on finding me, and he had realized what it was that his deputy had just said to him as well. I slightly turned my head over to him, as it seemed as if he were almost whispering to Joergen just in case, though I did not poke my head completely out, just in the case that he was testing me.

"Socra is still a strong dragon, and with that human still alive, you can never say never. We have to find him at all cost, once he is dead, than that means that the war is in our hands for the taking." He said to Joergen. I gulped a bit as well, as I realized what it was that they had said.

They really were looking for me... I sat there for a bit longer as well, as I knew at the current place that I was at right now, I was safe. They could not find me here, due to the spell that my Uncle had put on the place long ago. As long as I stayed there, than they would never be able to find me.

I knew that it would not be working that way forever though. I knew that at some point, we were going to be searching for a lot of dragons, and trying to hunt them down at kill all of them. I kept my eyes closed, as I breathed in heavily to calm myself as well.

I knew one thing that they did not know as well, that I would hold it to my last breath as well. While they might have thought that they had killed the son of Himla, and that the war was theirs for the taking, they did not know that Jangra existed.

Not only that, they clearly still did not have a clue that Himla had got his job as a leader of his tribe back too. If anything, we were now the ones with the advantage, even if there were a lot more of them, than there were of us...

I sat for just a few moments longer as well, until I finally heard the voice of Joergen, as he finally decided that he was going to step up, and speak back to Plyma, after the long period of silence had finally passed over all of us. I listened to what it was that he had to say as well, but I kept my eyes closed at the same time.

"There is only so much that human can do, there is far too many of us, and the red dragons still have not grouped together yet... At this rate, they never will get the chance to either." He said back to Plyma. I smiled at myself at the same time as well, as he was really getting Plyma's hoped up, and he did not know how wrong he truly was, with what it was that he had said.

I decided to poke my head out just a bit this time, as I thought that it might be a slight bit more safe this time, since they were engaged in conversation at the exact moment. I spotted Joergen, as it almost seemed like he was looking right into my eyes.

I blinked just a few times, as I realized that it was not the case at all, and he still could not see me, as he usually was not able to. I sighed a bit in relief as well, as I saw that Plyma also had his back turned to me, and he did not seem to be nearly as worried as he might have been just a few moments ago.

Though I could not see the full face of Plyma, I did indeed see a bit of a smile on his face as well. It almost made me want to smile at the same time as well. I wondered if Joergen was betraying him, and whether or not he might purposely be trying to get his hopes up, and try not to be worried.

The look on his face did not fool me though, as I could see a huge smile on his face. Besides, I knew that it was the job of a deputy, to boost the morale of a leader, and of the whole tribe. It made sense as to what it was that he was doing, though he seriously did not know how wrong he was with what he had said.

I stared at them for just a bit longer, as I waited for one of them to keep on speaking to one another. I wondered if at any point soon, I was going to wake up from this dream that I had been stuck in, for much longer than most of my other dreams had ever been as well.

I shook my head at the same time too, as I suddenly head Plyma decide that he was going to speak back to his deputy, Joergen. I turned my head over, and made sure that my ears were paying full attention to what it was that he had to say back to him as well.

"We can never count out the fact that Himla could have a rebirth, and he can still be the dragon of destiny... It never said that the father had to be alive. I do think that this is ours to keep at this point however." He said back to Joergen, I stared there for just a few moments.

I almost wanted to laugh back at Plyma, as they did not know how wrong it was that they had been thinking. I did feel like I needed to find out what dragon it was that they had been talking about, that they were going to go and follow to find the red dragon tribe.

I felt like I should warn them about that at least. If they found out that all of what they had assumed was completely wrong, that would change the slopes of the war in the wrong sort of way that we wanted. We had a small chance with the way they were talking right now, but at least it was still a chance.

I stared at Plyma for just a bit longer as well, as all of the sudden, I saw him slowly begin to turn his head over to me, as it seemed as if he had all of the sudden remembered as to what it was that he had been worried about, just a few moments before now.

I knew that he was going to spot me as well, as just before I had the time to turn myself back into the tree that I had been standing against, all of the sudden, everything just then decided to turn black all at once.

I opened my eyes, and then blinked a few times as well, as I then suddenly realized that I was no longer in the dream that I had been in. A part of me felt a bit happy that I was no longer there, but at the same time, I knew that I shouldn't be.

It seemed like there was more that I could have found out about, but I just had not gotten the chance to do so. I lifted my head up, as at the same time as well, I turned my head over to Julia, to see if she had been the reason that I had woken up.

I looked over at her side of the bed, but I saw that she in fact was nowhere to be seen at all. I stared at the empty spot on the bed, a bit surprised, until I heard a familiar voice begin to speak up to me, from the other side of the room. I turned my head over to it, as I saw that it was John.

"Todays the day Joseph... You gotta wake up! So it begins..."
