"Uhhhh!"
"uhhhh!"
Dan was fighting the shadowy creature for the fourth time. Compared to how it was the first time, it was different. It was stronger, faster, smarter and had a physique that looked like Dan's.
Its fighting style was almost identical apart from the sloppy form. Usually Dan just swung wildly and sucker punched most people but he was fighting seriously. He was using this as a chance to improve his fighting techniques.
A strong left punch blew apart the creatures defence leaving it open for a second.
It was a small time frame and not a lot but to Dan this was more than enough. His right hand came and hit the creature in its abdomen.
"Kraaaah!" It shrieked out. Dan noticed a smile on the creatures face as if it was expecting the punch. He tried removing his hand but it was to late.
It grabbed his hand and lifted Dan into the air aiming to throw him on his back. Unluckily for the creature Dan was like a cat always landing on his feet and that is what he just did. He landed on his feet.
He pulled in the creature that refused to let go of his hand and head butted it the hardest he ever head butt anyone.
They both stumbled backwards holding their heads in pain.
"Fuck!"
"Fuck!"
After a minute of what seemed like temporary truce and holding their foreheads they got back to each other.
The creature grabbed Dan by the head and tried slamming him face first into the ground. It seemed to have lacked the strength to do it as Dan raised his head and grabbed the creature's head and slammed it into the ground.
Without even waiting for a second Dan kicked the creature flinging it over the volcanic like ground.
It bounced upon the surface of the ground like a pebble on on water. It picked itself of the ground in a hurry and glared daggers at Dan.
It opened its mouth and put its hand inside it. Dan could not describe what he was feeling. The only thing he could do watch in horror and fascination as it pulled out the unsheathed sword that it had stolen from Dan.
"That is dangerous you dumb fuck! Don't do that unless you want to kill yourself!" Dan shouted.
"That is none of your concern!" the voice that almost sounded like Dan said.
"You can talk!"
"Of course I can talk why did you think that I could not talk!"
"BECAUSE YOU MIMICKED MY EVERY WORD!"
As soon as Dan finished speaking the creature ran at him at an incredible speed. It swung down the sword only for Dan to move sideways and dodge it easily.
The creature shuddered and fell on the ground as if having a seizure. It was within the blink of second. Dan had summoned lightning and made the creature hit the Harlem shake on the floor.
Dan walked up to the creature. The sword it had stolen from him was covered in thick saliva and seemed rusty.
He looked at the creature that was foaming from its mouth. The only reason why Dan knew that it was foaming from the mouth was because of the colour of the foam. It was white unlike the black shadowy figure of its.
Dan squatted to see the creature. It was basically a human that seemed to be covered in shadows. There were red stains all over its body that was a result of all the injuries it had faced at the hands of Dan.
Dan stood up and left leaving the unconscious creature on the ground. He left it behind for a reason. He was planning on making the creature stronger so that he could receive a lot of experience points when he killed it. The creature was like a cow and Dan the farmer fatening up so that he could eat it during the cold winter.
Dan walked for a while before reaching where Charlie and Crion were. Charlie looked completely different to how he was before he ate the the mana stones.
Every single part of his entire body was covered in crimson red scales. That included his chest, legs and even his face. His hair was on the floor probably due to the fact that he grew scales.
He was several times bigger than before. In fact he would be considered a giant by many if they saw him. He looked heavier than anything an elephant could ever weigh.
His chin had some sort of bumpy lumps and a fully grown tail on his tail bone.

"Do you know what is happening to me?" Charlie asked.
"More or less!"
"Can you tell then... please?"
Dan stopped walking and faced Charlie. "..."
"Sorry...no... sorry... I won't say sorry or please again...ok?"
"You better not!"
"So can you tell me what is happening to my body?"
"Yeah sure, you see, this is kinda like... how should I say it... For a dragoneborne... This is a sign of stress in simple terms!"
"Stress! I'm a child how do I have stress?"
"Don't worry about it, it's not permanent!" Dan raised an eyebrow before muttering under his breath. "I think so!"
"Just think of it like gray hair on a human or red hair on an elf or a hunchback in a dwarf."
"How do I fix it?"
"Well it is quite simple really, all that I really got to do is just tip you over the breaking point, you turn into a giant fully grown lizard and then you go on a rampage, I knock you the fuck out, you regain control and then discover your hidden dragon powers and then every once in a while during a life threatening situation you just tap into it." Although it seemed to make sense to Dan he happened to say most of it to fast so all Charlie could do was look at him with a blank expression.
"Huh, I feel like you said something important there can you repeat it?"
"Are you ready?"
"Ready for what?"
"Ok, on the count of three, one... two..." a heavy punch landed directly in Charlie's stomach. It was so heavy and fast that it made a giant like Charlie keel over.
PZZZZCCCCKKKK!
What followed was lightning coming from his hands attacking Charlie. Dragons had such thick scales that they could even withstand lightning from the sky. All it would do was get rid of the pests on its scales. However Dan had such great lightning control that he could get the lightning in between the scales.
After five minutes of taking continuous lightning damage and Charlie screaming that it happened.
It happened then, it was then that Charlie started to transform.
