Chapter 8 - Hatching A New Beast!

The sound of a rooster crowing woke Dash from his slumber. He slowly opened his eyes and rubbed them. After that, he got up and went behind to wash his face.

"Huh, I'm still so sleepy," he said yawning.

After a while, he walked over to where he had been sleeping. Don't forget to take some clothes for him to change. Usually when morning Dash never takes a bath but only washes his face.

Because of last night's problem, he was still reluctant to go out and meet his older brother and grandfather. Dash decided to stay in the barn instead.

But when he returned to the place where he was sleeping, he was surprised to see that the antique was broken.

"Oh my gosh how can this be broken!" said Dash frantically as he took some shards from his antiques. And after that, he saw that there was something strange in the fragments of his antiques.

"Why is there some kind of slime from my antique pieces!" He muttered, sensing that something strange had happened.

Dash tried to open the blanket that was on top of the straw he used to sleep in, looking for some more fragments of his antiques. But what made him confused was that the slime on his antique was pointing to a place.

Slowly Dash headed to the place where the slime was. His mind began to race and also a lot of questions arise in his head. With a sneak, he headed towards the back where the haystack he had piled right behind he used to sleep.

There is a kind of cavity or small gap that can be accessed to get behind the haystack.

He was curious because the slime that came out of his antique fragments headed behind the haystack.

"I swear I don't want this to be something I'm afraid of!" He said while hoping that something strange wouldn't happen.

And at that moment he went straight into the gap in the hole of the straw which was almost the size of his body and saw what was really behind the straw.

"Wow!" Dash's eyes widened in surprise when he saw that something behind the straw was a strange creature.

"No, this is just a dream, this is just a dream there's no way my antique is an egg!" he said as he backed away after seeing the strange creature, all he could see were his eyes. Because behind the haystack, the light is less, so he can't see clearly.

Dash was standing back and forth in front of his straw bed confused whether what hatched from the egg was an alien or what.

I swear I really can't stop thinking, Should I kill he/she Or what should I do? I'm afraid that what hatches behind the egg is an alien that might target me and will eat me. Dash's mind was racing that he thought something strange had happened to him.

Dash tries to lure the animal behind the hay with some food. Because he saw at a glance that the animal behind the straw looked like it was limp or it felt like it hadn't eaten anything.

He took a loaf of bread that was on the table next to his straw bed. And after that, he threw the bread in front of the hole where the strange creature he saw was behind the haystack. Dash is prepared with a wooden block just in case.

After waiting a few minutes the creature appears to be showing its snout but doesn't eat the piece of bread that Dash has thrown at it.

Wait, just because that part of his body isn't visible makes me curious to know what kind of creature it is. Alright. If not the all-consuming type maybe I can lure him in with something lively. Inner Dash thought of every way.

But he is not at his wit's end he has a way to lure the creature out from behind the haystack. Dash ran towards the corn storage because he knew that behind the corn storage there was a group of small mice.

"Gotcha!" Dash said as he picked up one of the rat pups that we were able to walk but was still slow. There was a squeaking sound from the rat as Dash wagged its tail.

"Okay let's try, Are you going out after this!" Dash immediately threw the small mouse in front of the hole or gap in the straw that was in front of him.

When the rat was thrown quickly, the animal behind the straw pounced on the rat.

Dash's face was shocked when he saw the body parts of the creature. The creature is a bird that is very similar to an eagle and has the same feather color as the color of its eggshell.

But strangely, the creature has full feathers, unlike a proper eagle in general, which after hatching should not have any feathers at all.

And Dash was even more confused when she realized that the eagle-like creature had four legs, and a strange tail.

"Wait, what animal or creature are you?" Say Dash When viewing the creature.

"Oh my God!" Dash said in disbelief when he saw the creature, his hands shaking and his eyes wide open.

"Are you that mythical beast!" said Dash When he saw the animal he saw, it was a mythological animal.

He couldn't believe it when he saw the animal. Despite its small size, Dash could tell that it was a mythological animal.

"I die, it turns out he or she is a Griffin!"

Dash said while sitting on the chair behind him. He saw that the baby Griffin in front of him was rolling around as if expressing love for Dash.

The baby Griffin was bright red with some dark spots on its body. The Griffin has four legs and also tiny wings that look adorable. Her big eyes add to her cuteness of Her.

Dash was surprised when he saw the Griffin was Spreading his wings, and it was as if he was puffing out his chest, and before long several mice came up to him and huddled right in front of him.

And in that instant, the Griffin pounced on the rat.

Over time, Dash saw the angry behavior of the Griffin in front of him, he immediately decided to carry the Griffin.

"Okay if you do ask me to carry you, but don't bite me okay!" Dash said while approaching the red baby Griffin who was very cute.

"You're so cute come here!" And when Dash touched Griffin's head suddenly his hand felt hot and glowed so brightly.

"Arghhhhh!!!" Dash groaned as the heat in his hands spread throughout his body. But the pain didn't last long, because the heat went away instantly, and the pain he had felt before, when he first touched the egg he found.

"Gosh, what happened now!" said Dash while looking at his hands when he realized that the heat was radiating from his palms, leaving a symbol in the shape of a hexagon star.

Shortly after the symbol flashed in Dash's palm, then the Griffin next to him looked so tame with him.

I don't understand what's happening to me now. Because I just stroked that cute little Griffin's head, suddenly

The palm of my right hand ignited a symbol in the shape of a hexagon star, the same wound as the wound I received earlier when I first touched the object I found in the forest, which turned out to be an egg.

And I don't know if this is a good or bad sign for me, what I do know is that after I got that mark, the Griffin suddenly became docile to me, and as if I too could feel what the Griffin was feeling.

———

Cedric woke up quickly, his ragged breathing made it difficult for him to condition himself. He held his head which was dizzy at the fleeting vision that had just appeared in his head.

The feeling he felt now was the same as the feeling he had once felt after the mythological creature he had made a contract with had hatched and touched for the first time.

And he realized that something was wrong. Because it had been almost twenty years after that battle had taken place he had never experienced anything like this.

The Griffin that Cedric rode was killed in the battle, so he only lived alone after the battle was over. Feelings of regret and loss are always haunting him.

But what confused him now was when suddenly a flash of a Griffin appeared in his head after twenty years had passed.

"Don't tell me there's a new rider!" Cedric said slowly
