Tears' Curse

-Long Sheng Jie, Realm of Dragons- 'But to them, we are creatures that only exist in fairy tales.'And she slashed her spiked tail across the blue-inked sky, shutting out the familiar whisper from distracting her mind.Higher than the birds could be, wrapped within complicated webs of fluffy clouds, here sat a majestic castle rooted onto a colossal floating cobblestone. A magical realm merged within mystical blooms emanating divine air laced with silver. Along the verge, baby plant elves chuckled among themselves as they flew above tiny yellow filaments of Tian Wu Lei. Teal seeds of Ye Chen Xin glistered in a rhythmic flow, showing off their thousand years of rich

The first day as a disguised human. The first day as a Stellaerio student. The first day of the beginning of everything. "Keep your identity well hidden, dragon girl," Miracle mumbled, putting on her uniform and balanced the little red bow in the middle of the collar. "As long as I'm not exposed, everything would be alright." "Miracle! You done?" Lyn shouted from the bottom level. "Just a second!" The moment she walked down the stairs, her nose twitched at the lingering smell of flour and vanilla extract. She sniffed a couple of times. It was something she not used to smelling. Hayden motioned her to come over as he plucked two slices of bread from the toaster and coated each with a rich amount of peanut butter. Watching his hand landed on the empty plate at her seat, it was then she understood the pieces were meant for her. Miracle pulled out the stool, letting out a silent sigh. She wanted to refuse the meal. Such mortal-ly meals, sh

Bothered by pictures of the dead, Miracle slid her bag off her shoulders and stomped towards the deeper barrier within the house. She swiped her hand across the invisible entrance embedded inside the backyard. Upon her call, the rippling net twinkled into view and wrapped her in. She made another swipe as she stepped in fully, erasing tiny hints of its existence. Camouflaged. With a deep, long breath, she let it out—the beast she held captive for days. And instantly a pure white dragon engulfed the shape of the 'human' goddess, taking over the blacks in her eyes. A flow of soothing chill ran through her skin, erasing the disguise as glimmering carp scales formed along her body. Emerging deer-like horns, fangs and claws refined themselves when they felt strong traces of divinity from the silver fronds—the external protections—reacting to her original presence. Too thirsty to be embraced by the air, the animal roared and swirled hungrily up above as if the air

Echoes of school bell accompanied by reverberations of morning announcements hit their eardrums. They exchanged a look, knowing reaching Stellaerio in another twenty seconds was an impossible mission. Well, normal mortals definitely wouldn't make it on time. But none of them were. Two TinXi. One dragon. Good enough. Inhaling a deep breath, lifting their legs as high as 90 degrees, off they sped. The security guard gave the rusty gate one last pull before moving back to the little guardhouse to enjoy his cup of freshly brewed mocha latte. His hand was still on the lock when the sudden outburst of energy occurred. Over the barrier, the Watsons leaped. They tapped onto the upper horizontal bar of the gate and made a perfect landing on the opposite ground, slapping the guard a blow of wind. The elderly slacked his jaw; eyes popped. His cap was blown away, revealing the mess on his half-bald head. When he turned around to check the time, he

To the realm above the thick layers of misty clouds, Hayden stared. Sorrowful hazel-brown eyes beholding amount of bitterness nobody knew. 2019. It had been solid eighteen years ever since they bid their last goodbye. The goodbye that twitched his heart, watching his pal pleading Felynx to let him go. Pleading to not be a TinXi. Pleading to be freed in the Ring of Deity… [ "I… I can't do this anymore… Felynx I… I can't do this anymore..." He knelt and fixed his gaze to the ground, dripping his tears into the silver fogs. Corners of Felynx's sleek robe stroked his trembling arm. "Get up, Vincent," he commanded, turning away. "You know you can't escape from this. Long Shen wouldn't allow it." "O-One… one by one sent to me." He raised and dropped his Adam's apple, gulping the sour lump down his throat. "One by one vanished also because of me." There was a smell of despise at the edge of his voice as he circled his sight to the iced cuboids hung d
