Bloodlines - A Wyvernus-Draconis Legacy

Bloodlines - A Wyvernus-Draconis Legacy

Chapter 1.1

I spent a lot of time just getting the lay of the land. I fished for my dinner, Went out to meet a few people at the Flea Market, Started a Garden and Relaxed by the fire. Things were going pretty well.

I met Kayla Flemming and Wolfgang Munch one day while I was exploring a park in Willow Creek.

Kayla was very sweet and like me she really loved the outdoors. The very same day we met, we were already looking at clouds and laughing together. I have to admit. She was much sweeter than any girl I had known previously. She didn't mind my weird love of collecting things either. She said it was interesting to have a hobby like that.

Wolfgang on the other hand was kind of rude. Even on first meeting he had a very harsh attitude. Kayla apologized for him. I seems that the poor teen had a crush on her and was quite annoyed that someone had taken interest in being her friend. Still, Kayla was sweet enough. She was very kind about telling me some good local fishing spots if I was interested. I didn't really see Kayla around after that day, she mentioned something about having a busy work schedule.

I did however see Wolfgang.

Apparently, the Mausoleum was one of the Teen's favorite hang out spots. A bit morbid for sure, but I remember my own rebellious fazes. I told him that the door was sealed shut and nobody could get in.
"Why are you here anyway?" He asked me. "This lot is abandoned."
I shook my head. "No. It's not. I've just become the new owner."
He only scoffed at me. "That's impossible."
I laughed, "Oh really?"
"Of course." He said. "Everyone knows that only a Draconis or a Wyvernus can live here. Some kind of ancient rights or something spooky like that."
I nodded, "What kind of spooky stuff? As the new owner, I might need some information."
"Whatever." He said and started to walk away.
"Listen," I told him. Let me introduce myself better. My name is Flint Wyvernus."
I could tell he was upset that I hadn't told him who I was sooner. He immediately started yelling about how my family was the reason the town was full of weirdos. He wouldn't give me much information other than that, but he felt strongly enough about the matter to yell, "Kayla is an idiot if she thinks you're a nice guy."

I couldn't control myself as I heard him insulting her. I don't know what came over me. One minute I was rolling my eyes, the next, I had nearly shoved him off the steps. I'd only just met Kayla the once and I was already so angry that he would insult her? This felt weird. Then again, as a child I had been told I was entirely too possessive. Always hoarding toys and stealing things from the other kids. I mean, it wasn't like I was a bad person. I just had this uncontrollable urge to collect things. I'd been told I had inherited this trait from my father. Whatever that means...


I instantly regretted shoving a kid and decided just to leave. There was no way he could get into that place anyway. I had tried a million different things already. Short of Blowing it up, I really had no clue how to get in. I decided to let him have a look, but one thing still bugged me. What was all this mysteriousness surrounding my family? It reminded me of a conversation I had had just the other week.

I had been fishing on the docks for quite some time hoping to find my next dinner when a man in a yellow Jacket cast his line and almost instantly cam away with the most beautiful fish I had ever seen. I mean really? I had been at it for hours!
I asked him how he managed to catch a fish so quickly and he just laughed, "It's in the blood son."
Smiling I nodded. "So what are you going to do with that thing?"
"I don't know. I might mount it on my wall. It would be nice to add to my collection."
"Oh I bet. Do you have a lot of fish in your collection? Like rare or exotic ones" I asked.
He gave me a look up and down. "Say, you look really familiar. Have we met before now? Are you a part of the Fisherman's Association?"
"No." I laughed, "I doubt we've met. I just moved here."
"Oh?" he asked, "Where do you stay around here?"
"Up at the Wyvernus-Draconis Estate." I replied.

"Don't tell me you're one of those people." He said rather harshly. His whole demeanor changed as rapidly as he had caught that fish.
I shrugged, "I mean, They're my folks I guess. I've never met them though. I think they died when I was kid or something."
"Yes." He said slowly, "Well, You better keep your nose clean and your hands off my collection."
I was shocked by his sudden change in attitude, but after my encounter with Wolfgang... All this was leading me to really believe that something had been horribly wrong with my family.
