United Against Dragons

There weren't always dragons in the Valley. We once believed these creatures were only around in movies. How to train them, being the last of the dragons, have to pull a sword out of a rock to beat the dragon and even be able to ride them and treat them as pets. These creatures roamed the very earth we live on and prove that there is nothing more powerful than they are. We now serve the dragons. -

Started as the pandemic soars so did people's hate. People are being told how to vote, you must risk safety to go out and vote. Our nation didn’t like it, why would you? We’ve never liked being told what to do, we have a choice that has been a much better option. No matter who wins we must succeed at keeping our people safe. Every country has failed. The world still works hard in the fight as pandemic rates increase. Then boom new leader of the country new vaccine. Once again the nation that comes out on top.

Open your eyes, are you saying you can’t do it? Mia yelled. No! Snarked, Bella. Mia kept nagging, “you're getting too old you know.”You're letting your one lucky guess create a breakthrough? I'm ready! Bella said. As Dad entered the room. Neither of you is that’s why I’m not leaving. You know you will have to! Bella pleads to her dad. You’ll have to realize you make mistakes too many you're going to risk us all for your pride dad. Please I know but you realize this is the only way. I will take everything I have before I’m giving up what we stand for. We’ve been prepared for this Bella. “Don’t forget you are not the only classified employee in the household” winking to his daughters.

Mia backing up her claim, Bella! All of a sudden, vaccine numbers kept improving. First President got the vaccine on live Tv. You think wow what a dumbass man. Yet our leader. Was water in the vaccine? Does he get a fake one? It’s killing people! The older people? The minorities? The majority? Who knows! Now the majority of the United States 65% vaccinated. About 155mill people voted. 212mill full vaxed. Does that make sense? Mia continued, There were talks about illegally added votes. Yet, not enough people are voting!? Bella stopped Mia’s tangent. If you would stop thinking everything is fake, you’d realize we do everything to protect the people of our country. Okay, let me inject people with bleach and ask them how you feel!? Mia exclaimed.

Girls, I love you both. I can’t be more proud that you fight for what you believe always have and will. Before I say this remember family. Nothing else. Bella, thank you. You know not many people can do what you and your mother do. Medical Researching for our government. Can’t talk about it, dad… Right classified winked toward Mia. Mia, you went the other route. Stepped outside the path and created your own and continue to be a successful reporter without jeopardizing our family's name and security. I thank you. That leads me to when the government fails this family won’t. Do what you need to know but know there may be a time to choose. Mom peaks into the room, save your hero talk dear. Are you going? Yes. Oliver climbs up from the bunker. Why does a one-year-old need a steak anyways? Do you not want to eat? I do mom Oliver said, can I bring Alan? He has been part of the outings looking at her husband. Okay, tell him to be there 1500 hours.

Ollie (18), is the only male in the household. Couldn’t be more proud. He listens… can’t say that about the others. Every command he does is persistent, clean, and accurate. An athlete that leads the way in everything he does. Alright, Ollie. Mask? Earbuds? Call me. Good connection. 15:00 let’s go. Dad comes on and waits one moment. He’s not here you know the rule. Yes, but look there’s his car!

Dad (Dee) All Dad ever knew was war. Well, that’s all the family knows. Either we are always at war with each other, against other scientists, terrorism, or whatever else, heck even what we’re having for dinner! Dad always wanted to cook out. I understand why “all he ever did was work from the bunker when I was around.” Ollie said, unimpressed. With Dad, you always had to be on time, accurate, and emotionless when in battle. He built our house on way too much land but has an underground system “we call the tree.”That’s where I did most of my training. They did always say I may have been the favorite. Maybe because I’m his only son not too sure. If you ask me he’s the hardest on me. Which I understood. See dad had a past so mom told me...

Dee, are you coming? Yes, go without me going to be a little slow this morning dealing with issues says clearly in pain. I’ll catch up. Always use to go on morning runs outside the base this was a way to get away from land. Trust me I’ve seen some nasty head-scratching stuff. It comes with the job. I understand that anything is for my country. I wouldn’t be where I am today without the training and belief. I have been accommodated and praised, and the team I’ve led produced many achievements. There's a time that doesn’t matter. Going to be honest when you have to go you have to. My stomach was in knots I was trying to think what was different. Realized I couldn’t remember... I Ripped my shirt off because you can’t trust the plants in the woods out here. In the distance, there was steam coming from a shed. I don’t recall seeing this ever. I looked around did I get turned around? Being fearless went closer to the shed, there’s a keypad? What the? Entered ID number was declined. I looked up and noticed seem coming up from the ground. Entered her code accepted of course. Dad got honorably discharged. I’ve been with my dad every step since mom told me that. Yet, still have not figured it out.

Ollie, you know the rule. Alan pulled up I’m sorry. Yea didn’t mean to traffic is getting worse. Okay honestly, Alan was always around from the beginning. He was great friends with Sky(32) and made my son happy and better at everything he’s done. I’m not against it maybe it was having all women in the house. Times have changed I support him and change. I’ll let this slide but be on time or just don’t come he knows better. Our phones on connection good. Here’s the list now this should get us by a couple of weeks. Just be quick. You know the drill. Alan came home with us as we celebrated Aubrey’s first birthday. Not going to lie she’s my favorite. We have our own language. Aubrey looks up from her cake she has smashed and says Dada coooki cooki. It’s the little things that remind you the world will recover. Especially with another addition.

Dad! Wake up! Okay, of course. You call your sisters? Yes, eye roll. Sky even said she’s coming! Mom will have Aubrey will be home when we get back! I’ve never seen Ollie this excited, we received his first letter from the navy. Different branch but I don’t mind. He deserves it. Couldn’t be more proud. Ollie says, okay I’m taking lead on this, standard operation doing enough supplies for a month. A month Ollie? Dad asked. Yes, mom said. “Sometimes I just tell him that”. Also wanted it to be more than just steaks this time. So Alan will be there 1500 hours. Here’s your list sent to Alan. Let’s go, Dad! Ollie said I’m in a hurry. I know you're excited but I haven’t checked, I did dad! The tree is fine you already slept in! I realize I did, this does happen sometimes. Please pick up dad thought. Did I transfer that over last night? Yes, Dee. I’ve been thinking… Maybe I should let Bella run the lab… I can tell Jey (Mom) you already did. You don’t tell me everything either! Spying on me again!? What did I do to you Dee? Huh? You did this I didn’t. Jey, I love you, I didn’t spy. I know you couldn’t come up with the cure as fast as Bella. The only thing is that Bella is taking the stuff to lab not GRAPES (Genetic Regenerated Ability Power estimated system). Dad come on! Ollie is driving me crazy. He’s excited. I’ll be home at 17:00.

Everything went just like it normally did on our outings (under 45mins). As we entered the building it didn’t take long. I thought to myself not any mask anymore. Just as I thought that call from Bella. Dad! We did it! Mandates are lifted! The vaccine it’s working! That’s great Bella! So you took it to the lab? You run it through GRAPES? I’ll see you at home on an outing right now. Did you tell mom? Already did! Love you dad. Ollie comes in. Are you done? Just getting the steaks. Bella called, and has some great news! Are you sure she can tell us? Be easy Ollie you know she takes pride in confidential information. 16:00 hours, outings have never taken a full hour. Alan communicates, you notice it being busier?

Guys, there are out of stock almost everything on the list. Get what you can, dad gave the order.

On our way back tire became flat. This car came flying up past us and stopped. Alan gets out of the car and says, Mason!? Ollie, This is the guy I told you about I knew in the navy. I thought you’d be here next week!? Alan walks over Mason comes over and hugs Alan. Ollie! You got. Bang!!! Alan’s body drops to the floor. Before, I get to the trunk bullets are flying! Ollie had his pistol shooting just to be able to drag Alan’s body behind the truck. Ollie broke down. Son bullets trying to kill us. He is unresponsive. As Blood fills the concrete beneath his feet.
