Am I Goddess Or What - 24 24.New home
On the way to the islands, they stopped a few times at different orchards.They took as much as they could of the fruits.The little girl taught about to take some seedlings but they had no space to do that.So they choose to do that after they are settled on the islands.
”Godfather.I really miss some meat.”said little girl after 8th day.She couldn’t see those damnable plants anymore. The dragons laughed as they felt the little girl is cute.
”Soon we will be there. Because we didn’t have many stops,we probably will be there by tonight,”said Alcazar.
Since she became part of family all five dragons adored her.She even started wearing the same clothes as they did.On end, the children choose to stay in the same color white as their parents.
The four children seemed to be playing well. Since they left the mountains there was not even one day without laughter and merriment.
The children had fun inside mother claw that was quite warm.The looked trough gaps the world under them and commented and asked the question about this and that.And dragons would patiently answer all their question.
Father Alcazar was after all over a thousand years old so he had wide knowledge in most things they passed.He would hear a thousand questions and give a thousand answers.Even if they don’t ask him,he would tell them what country they are passing,what city and what kind of people live there and used to live.After they left continent he would tell them about the island and sea creatures that they would occasionally see.
So for the children, the trip was quite enjoyable.And even parents feeling all that energy and will to learn from children enjoyed the long trip.Soon they will arrive at the islands of their choice and enjoy the time.
As the evening colored the sky in magical colors,Alcazar finally saw their destination far from humans.The mother opened gaps between her claws so the children could see their new home.
The islands were set as a circle and in mid was flat peace of water.The water seemed to be of amazing light azure color so they gasped as they saw it.
The island seemed to be three big islands and four tiny ones.But from far you could see even from far the green on them.The lush vegetation seemed to be spread all over all islands.On some more on some less.
The children were excited.The could even see from far that the flat sea in front of them was abundant with a different kind of sea life.
The dragons slowly flew lower and finally, the came to one side of the biggest island and set down near a huge cave.
”This is cave we used when we were on honeymoon.The islands are wonderful and the sea is abundant with seafood.There are lots of fruits all over the islands.But later on, we can transfer some more fruit seedlings and plant them here.The temperature on the islands is all year around same accept few showers of rain every now and then.”said Alcazar while looking at the children that gaped at everything in their surroundings.
”Father, mother can we go down to the water we want to swim.”said the boy in name of all four. After all, so long ride straight after they were born made them feel quite dirty.The girls nodded. Actually, these four wanted to explore the island.
”There are no big wild animals around. So you can walk around as much you want.”said mother, seeing through their intentions.
They laughed and waited until the children were gone to turn back to humans. They put their clothes on and even in human for they had the same strength so they just picked up the baggage as it was empty and made of papyrus.
The children started running down the hill towards the sea. The little girl was the smallest and had the least strength so the boy gave her ride on his back.
”You are indeed to light. You need to eat more. Even tho I don’t like the smell of meat I will catch something later for you to eat.”he said while looking at her thing arms that tried to hold on tight onto him.
”Yes little sister we will give you much to eat. But not only meat. You need vegetables and fruits as well.”said one of the girls.
”The little sister is indeed to thin. We need to make her fat and round like a ball.”said another one teasingly.
The little girl puffed hear cheeks as to show that she is not that thin. To become a ball. Do they plan to trow and toss her around? When she imagined that she shivered lightly.
The boy slightly pinched her puffed cheeks and laughed.
”You must be imagining something really weird.”he realized in these days when they traveled that this child seems to have a strange imagination. Everything mother would explain she would add some more things that don’t exist anywhere except in her head.
”I just imagined turning in a ball and you all tossed me to death,”she said while crunching her nose.
He liked to tease her and to pinch her cheeks.
”Brother let me carry her a bit.”Said one of the girls looking at that angry face. She knew that she hated someone pinching her.
Unfortunately, she had such adorable expressions whenever she taught about something. She couldn’t hide anything as it was clearly displayed in front of their eyes.
”No I will have her now and later if I am tired I might give her to one of you two,”he said while looking at girls in worry.
He taught they couldn’t handle her and they would drop her unintentionally. They started laughing and teasing him.
”I guess you already take her as your bride. Oh brother.If you are so possessive when you are this little what will happen later?”The girls looked at him and run faster.
He was stunned for a moment and taught about it. He must ask the father is it possible for them to get married. If yes she will definitely become his bride. She can’t run away.
”Later, much later I might marry you. But we have to ask father first.”
She stared at the back of boys head speechlessly.Hey.They are just children.It’s too early to think about getting married. What does this boy have in his head?
”I don’t want.I need to become strong and find the mother and punish father.I have no time for marriage”she said while looking at girls pleadingly.’Get me out of here’
The girls laughed looking at her pleading eyes and tried to snatch her off his back.But he just sped up and so all they could do is just give her smile and look at their brother.
He seems to have set on her and nothing could stop him. They looked at each other and sighed. They need to talk to parents.As soon they come back.
Soon they went trough last trees and saw a white beach and blue water.They run to the water and started swimming like fish.It was in their blood to know.
The little girl never learned so she didn’t dare to enter too deeply.The boy saw that and started giving her instructions on how and what she should do when swimming.
After a while girl started getting dizzy as the sun shone and they were in the water for quite some time.
She didn’t have a robust body as they did so she felt very tired.
”Brother.”she said ”I can’t swim anymore. And I feel dizzy. Help me. Take me back to mother and father.”she said while slowly closing her eyes.
Her face was burned by the sun and she was exhausted. And hungry.
The children seen her losing consciousness got scared and started running. He was reprimanding himself. She was after all smaller as they were. She can’t do many things as they can. Why did he push her so much?He almost started crying.
When Alcazar and Teatind saw them coming back in such state yelling for help they run out immediately. Teatind took the girl into her arms and saw that her condition started worsening.
”We took her into the family and treated her as a family member so much that we forgot that she is human.She needs clean water and food.She is thirsty and hungry.And she probably has sunstroke.”
The boy started crying so did the girls.Parents got scared as they didn’t know what happen.
”It’s all my fault.I made her swim so much that she almost died.”he cried.
”Little fool”said Alcazar”Don’t worry,your mother will heal her.And she is just hungry and thirsty.”
In mothers claws, the children didn’t have to think about food because it was always some there.
But after they left continent two days ago they didn’t eat anything and the little girl didn’t complain so they forgot.”They are both fools. The boy and the little girl.”sighed Alcazar.
”We need to give you names soon,”he said to children.
”Child.”he looked at the boy”if you want to repay her, give a name.Like that she will be blessed as her brother gave her best name.”Alcazar taught that this will pep little bit boy but now he saw his reluctant face.
”What is it?If you need ideas You can look through scrolls.There are many.”he said while thinking that bot was just worried about giving the name.
”Its not that, father.I think he doesn’t want to give her name as brother”teased one of girls.The boy nodded. Alcazar looked at him in wonder.
”You don’t like her.But she is a good child and we all think she is fine”he started protecting the little girl and trying to leave some positive opinion.
”Father it is not that I don’t like her.I actually do.I just don’t want to become her brother.”he looked ta father earnestly and seriously.
”I don’t understand”said Alcazar in confusion.
”He wants her as his bride. So he doesn’t want to be her brother.”the other girl said.He nodded again.
Alcazar was stunned.Wait,what?Is it even possible?If it is he wouldn’t mind.
”We will look at scrolls and if there are nothing ins scrolls we need to ask elders if they know.I never heard dragon getting married to a human girl,”he said while thinking that this going to be a huge problem.The dragons set their heart for life.If he is set on that child…sigh…
”Father I know what I ask is strange.But I really want her as my bride,”he said with determination.
”I can’t promise you now anything.Lets ask your mother.And you have to ask her as well.If she doesn’t have you in her heart you can’t push her too much.She might leave and never come back.”Alcazar knew that humans make rash decisions.But this child when she makes up her mind, she probably will go away from them …sigh…
”Father…I…”boys started getting restless and started stuttering.
Alcazar stopped him with a wave of his hands.
”If you can get her heart before she leaves for her revenge that she will stay with you forever.But if you can’t you have to give up and become a real brother,”he said while looking at his son seriously.
The boy at first stubbornly looked at the floor but realized that they had still many years to come so he nodded. Alcazar sighed in relief and hoped that there is something the could do if those two become pair.
Having that little girl as daughter-in-law is not bad either. He liked her from the first moment.Even if they do not become pair and she doesn’t love this airhead,he will definitely continue to love her as his own child. Then he remembered one more thing and scowled. They live for thousands of years but most humans have less than a hundred years to live.
So many problems.He doesn’t want her to live that short life either. To get a child and lose her so fast.He is not willing.He needs to fix this problem fast.
He turned around and went in the cave while telling children to go to gather fruits and get some meat.On other island live some smaller animals like wild chickens and rabbits.They need to cook lots of meat for that little girl.They understood why the father asked them and they run.
He had a light smile on face.These children really liked the girl.She is indeed part of the family.He slowly went into the cave where Teatind was feeding the child some coconut water slowly.He looked at the child in her arms and felt the warmth spreading through his whole body and into his heart.He smiled at the sight.We really love her.The child will get the love of this family so she can live happily in the future…
