Names Luke Crux 30 years old guy . I am here to tell you guys about something you called 'Life'. Of course I have nothing against it but I just hate it you know, I mean it's like having a day nothing but boring events like going to school,listening to subject,talking to other even though I don't know what they are talking about. I think you may call me a 'LONER'. But after these sentences I made out in my head, I can't say that I'm right cause an event which I may be waiting has come.

/When I'm still 6 years old and in Grade 4/

"Ahh so here is the new student class please do behave and listen" my new teacher said as he sat down "Umm...I'm Luke Crux a transfer student and..thats all" Of course I was nervous, I'm standing infront of new kids it's not new.

"Ok so everyone please be friendly to Luke and Luke you may seat at the vacant one" he stand up and point where I seat "Ohh I forgot that Luke won't stay here too long since he is still an undecided student so sooner or later he will change class but still be friendly to him ok?\~" he added "Yes sir" some answered

"Haaa\~ It's all boring here nothing new" I muttered in dissapoint tone

'I was transfered here at school called "Spring Elementary School" I like the name though but it's still the same day as yesterday. Hmm how about I go to Aunty's Room when lunch break, maybe I can find something to play'

/RIIIIING!!/

The bell rang and it was lunch break Luke went to the other side of the school since it is shaped like a U. He passed some kids playing 'Cards?' he thought he passed them but his attention was caught.After few minutes went by he arrived at Spring section which is his Aunty's classroom.

Luke peek into his aunty's classroom. He saw her as she was talking to a girl which shes kinda taller than him,nevermind that.

"Aunty!" Luke yell but with a soft tone. This caught the childrens attention and for that moment my nervousness rise.

"Hmm who is that boy?" A little dark skinned boy said to his classmate "Mm?Maybe he had an aquiantance or someone he knew here." the chubby girl said heading to the doorstep. I stepped back a little being a shy one this made the chubby girl smile so I hid my face.

"Hey do you need someone here?" the chubby girl asked me after that I look at aunty to say something and the chubby girl look who I stared.

"Ohh so you're aquiantance with Mrs. Rachel, don't be shy come in" the girl gestured at me to come in as I did but slowly though then I went beside to aunty with my back facing them.

"Haha so pupils this is my nephew Luke" she push me to face them. I was nervous and I always keep my head down when I do.

"Ohh so this is your nephew his soo cute\~ By the way my names Ayra, and this is Cathy,then Kyla and thats Andrew." She said then pointing to the girl which aunty was talking to and then a sister type named Kyla and the dark skinned tall boy named Andrew.

"N-nice to meet you all\~" I said that with a really soft voice. 'I'm too nervous! Gotta relax' Luke thought as he was inhaling and exhaling.Luke calm down and went to his aunty.

"So what brings you here?" She asked me still smiling. ' Is it really fun to see me being shy?' Luke got irritated but only a little. " I'm bored I'm still new here so I don't know what to do" Luke sat down with a gloomy look.

"Hmm that maybe a little hard on me since I don't know what games are played these days..How about you ask April?" She pointed to a girl that was reading a book, in fact it's a math book.I look again at my aunty "No I don't want to disturb her.".

"Ohh what about those cards kids play, I wanna play too" my childish side is getting out little by little. "Ohh those are called 'Pikamon Card', you will know how to play if you watch them." Aunty pointed two guys playing the so called 'Pikamon Cards' where they were surrounded by other kids.

Luke went to the spot where the game is. He took a look to the players winning and losing, this got his attention but lunch break is almost over so he went back to his room.

As look went back to his room, he look at his surrounding seeing that many kids play that game ' Hmm is it really that much fun to play?' He thought then ran to his room and then lunch break was over.

/RIIIIIIING!!/

As Luke sat on his chair, his new teacher came close to him "Luke your new class will be in Starlet B at the main building, your admittion was just decided now, you can go early so you can memorize the school's lay-out." He said then went back to his table.

'Since the teacher said so then I will go' he thought as he packs his notebooks into his bag then left the room.

"With that said I don't know what to do now. Sigh\~" Luke muttered to himself as he walk to the gate.Luke sat at the bench near the gate as he saw the girl named Ayra.

' Hmm thats the girl who was talking to aunty earlier' He thought as he recalled the she called him 'cute'. This got him bothered.

"I'm not cute. I'm just cool" Luke muttered praising himself. After a few minutes he got tired so he went home first.

On his way home, he met a black cat with it's leg being wrapped by a tape. He kneel to take of the tape that was being wrap around it leg. As he took off the tape their was a black ring with a white diamond.

This shocked Luke as he thought that this could be worth a thousands of dollars or even millions which belonged to a rich man/woman.But that feeling didn't last longer as Luke held the cat in his arms.

Luke arrived at his apartment as he went directly to his bed. He went to check his phone to see any messages.

Luke is living on his own even though he has an aunty but he prefer to live alone after his parents died in an airplane crash. Luke look at his cat who was sleeping beside him on his bed.

'This cat is stray.' Luke saddens a bit of the thought that this cat is just like him. Even though Luke is just a 6 years old he is responsible which happened before his parents died. His parents taught him how to cook, wash his clothes and any his house hold chores. You can say that he is a fast learner.

"Ugh better do some laundry and cook some dinner." Luke got up and then went to do the chores. After luke wash his clothes he cook some omellete rice for him and a fish for the cat. Luke's Aunty supported his decision to live on his own but she said that she will help provide some money for food and electricity.

After they ate dinner they went to living room to watch something on T.V. As Luke sat down the cat walk into his room then went back to the couch showing him the black ring. Luke saw the cat as he took the black ring out of his mouth.Then the cat went away again.

Luke took a long look at the ring and saw that there were words inside it. He read it and then the diamond glowed.

/Sigh\~/

' I wonder who's ring is this' Luke fiddle it with his fingers and took a closer look."Oh there are words inside it." As he saw the words inside he read it " A ring that is black as the hell, shall be the dragon of the chosen death itself\~"..' What a weird thi-' his thoughts stop as the diamond on the ring glowed brighter every second.

"Wha-! What is happening! I can't se-!" Luke slowly loses consciousness as he past out...

/After a few minutes/

\~Meow\~\~Meow\~\~Meow\~

"Ngh\~ ugh just what happened?\~" Luke got up realizing his on the floor. His mind was a mess trying to remember what happened and why is he on the floor..As he is trying to recover his memories his cat is staring at him.

\~Meow\~\~Meow\~

"Are you okay now master?" The cat talked.'Oh it's talking cool' Luke thought while his brain is still processing. After a few seconds, "Wait! You can talk!?" Luke shouted in shock and surprise.

" Sigh\~, This is going to be a long\~ day" the cat sigh..' He sigh just now right!I'm not imagining right!' Luke thought as he was shouting inside his mind though.

Everything is a mess. There's a cat in my living room who can TALK!. After a few minutes I recalled my memories of what happened earlier. This made my head hurt.

/Flashback/

As I read the words " A ring that is black as hell, shall be the one chosen by the death itself\~" then the diamond of the ring glowed brighter and brighter.

"Wha-! Where am I?! What is happening?!!" Like shouted as he was freaking out being in a space ***** and seing some nonsense numbers and scriptures surrounding him then a person in a black cloak showed itself in the middle of it.

"Who is the one that was chosen by death and the one who awaken the ring?!" The man in black cloak spoke. " Hi!Sir, Can you be so kind to tell me where I am? I'm sort of confused why I am here." Luke answered directly to the man but maintain his distance away from him.

"Young boy can you first tell me your name?" The man spoke again but in a gentle manner. " My name is Luke Crux sir. Please tell me where am I and How can I go home\~." He answered as his fear decreased

"Young boy, You are inside of the black ring, You are unconcious outside but your mind is awake here in the ring." The man explained

"You are at this place called 'The Dragon's Ruin ' which had been inactive for 30 years. When the ring activate, It means that It has found a new 'Master'." He added

"A new master? What is happening I still don't get it. Please explain what's going on." Luke was confuse. Everything was so sudden his mind can't take it all.

"Hmm then someone will explain everything outside.We don't have time now young boy you're waking up so I'll see you next time." The man said farewell as Luke's sight is getting black.

•Then Luke woke up meeting a cat who can talk and the present•

/End of flashback/

"Master! Please hear me out! I will explain everything you need to know nya\~" the cat yelled outside of his room. "Then can you please take this ring off first.It's kinda stuck." He said as he went out of his room.

"Uhh, before I should say that taking off the ring is where the part only you can do nya\~" the cat sweat drop as he explained.

Luke gave in so he just listen to the cat explaining things.After the cat explained everything, Luke has mixed emotions.

'In other words, I am being chosed as the Dragon by death but I am still uncomplete because I still have no knowledge about anything related to this and the diamond still has no color huh\~' Luke thought as he dazing at space.Smoke came out of his head. This blew up his circuits.

"Ahh hahaha\~,It seems that It's too much of an information for a young boy nya\~" the cat chuckled at my expression.

"Yeah, I'm still a elementary school boy you know." Luke giggled but stop as he saw the cat's expression changed.'Hmm?'

"What is it?" Luke questioned the cat." Nya\~It's just that did master got younger?" The cat jumped to the couch.

"Uhh No. People can't get younger you know." He denied but got a laugh from the cat. " Hahahaha then that is weird cause when I smell you I smell something that was being frozen for so long nya\~".

"Huh? What are you talking about? I don't get it." His eyebrows are now furrowed." Hmm, you see in other words your time or 'Age' has been frozen" the eyes of the cat showed no trace of lying.But Luke did not believe this.

"H-huuh? What are you talking about? Thats just nonsense. Now I need to prepare for school tommorow so Goodnight\~" Luke said as he went to his room

"Hmm looks like master is still processing. Better be careful then nya\~" The cat went to warm spot of the couch then slept.

For that night, Luke went to sleep early but the only thing that he knew is that his life will change.

/Next day/

\~BEEP\~\~BEEP\~\~BE--.

The clock woke me up. I got out of my bed as I went to brush my teeth.'Ugh I got an hairbed again' Luke thought as he saw it through the the mirror trying to get rid of it.

"Nya\~ Goodmorning Master\~" the cat yawn. This made luke feel new I mean that there is a cat who can talk and thats not normal.

" O-oh yeah Goodmorning to you too ugh--" Luke did not know the name of the cat. "Oh sorry for the late Introduction, my name is Lynx The guardian of the Dragon" the cat introduce proudly.' A cat being the guardian of a dragon?'

"Uhh yeah goodmorning too Lynx" he greeted again. " Oh yeah I will go to school today so where are you-" "I will be your bodyguard master don't worry." Lynx cut him off."Wait what?! I can't bring a pet to school." Luke finished brushing his teeth and then fixed his hair."Don't worry Master I will guard you at a distance so Master won't be bothered and no one can see me\~." Lynx reassured him.

"Ohh then in that case I have no objections then."'But being protected by a cat is a little..-' Luke sweatdropped as he imagined the scene.

"Nya\~" Lynx cheerfully answered. Luke sigh then he remembered that he is changing class again.

Luke ate his breakfast then went on his way to school."Haa\~ is my life going to change?" Luke sighed again.

After few minutes he arrived at school, as he went inside he coincidentally saw Ayra as she went to line up. It was morning assembly so all pupils line up as a section.

"It's that girl again, why does it seem that she's a little smaller than I saw her yesterday? Maybe it's just my imagination." Luke muttered then shrug off the thought.

Morning assembly started, First was the prayer and then flag raising and then some morning exercise. After all that all the pupils went to their rooms except for me though I was called by a teacher.

"Your the transfer student right? Come with me I'll take you to your room." A teacher told me so I followed her. Few minutes pass we arrive at my room.

"So this your room Starlet. Go inside and introduce yourself, thats all." Then shes gone. 'Uhh that was something. Does she perhaps hate boys? Naah\~' Luke thought as he knock on the door.

"Excuse me, I'm the transfer student, My name is Luke Crux I'm 6 years old." Luke greeted as he went inside. Such coincidence happened when he notice the students that were once aunty's. 'Maybe they are undecided students too.'

"Ok then please take a seat on the vacant ones." The teacher said as he point at the vacant seats that were beside Ayra. 'Hmm then I'll pick the one at the window.' Luke went to the seat at the window and beside ayra.

"Ok then please turn your textbook on page 147." The teacher said. I went to get my book but then I saw ayra froze as if something happened. 'Or maybe something did".

"Hmm is there something wrong?" I stared at her "I forgot my book\~" she look as if she lost something important. " Then do you want to share?" I offered a helping hand." Really? Then excuse me\~" she move her chair close to my table. ' Despite her appearance she is a little clumsy\~Hehe and she smell good, Like cherry?' Luke thought as he share his book.

As time went by, Lunch break came soon.'Haa\~ that was easy •GUUUURRGH\~•' Luke was hungry at the same time embarrased. "Hehehe so your hungry too huh\~" A girl chuckled turns out it was Ayra. "Yeah of course I am, my brain consumes my energy so I need food." Luke said feeling embarrased.

"Then how about we have lunch together with my friends? Think of it as my way to thank you." she smiled. I feel light but why?

"Then let's go" Luke accepted and smiled.

Both got their lunch and then they went to the cafeteria where the others were waiting."Hey guys sorry for the wait.\~ I brought Luke here to eat with us." Ayra introduced me to them. 'Somewhat I feel embarrased being introduce by a girl.' Luke thought to himself.

"Thats great! The more the merrier\~" Kyla said. "Thanks for inviting me." Luke thanked them. " Oh it's nothing." Andrew said as he opened his lunch.

" Say Ayra who cook for your lunch today?" Cathy questioned ayra. " My mom cook for me today. She cook me some sausages, some vegges and pack me some oranges see\~." Ayra showed us some oranges in her lunch box.

" Nice, how about you Luke? Who cooked your lunch?" Am asked me. " U-uhh, no one cook for me" I replied in depress. "Huh? Then who cook your lunch?" Cathy followed up. "I did. On my own." I said it with my head down.

'Though you wouldn't believe me.' Luke thought but "Woow thats so awesome, you can cook by yourself\~!" Ayra exclaimed " Yeah that is so great, unlike us we can't cook by ourselves." Kyla followed up.

" Thanks I thought you never believe me hehe..Then how about I cook something to you guys next time at my apartment." Luke was happy.

"Really!? Then how about tommorow since it's our break?" Ayra was excited. "Sure I am free\~" For the first time Luke actually smiled.

This surprised them especially Ayra since all they see from Luke is a depressed young boy now they see is a happy handsome boy. "This suits you better\~" Ayra muttered but Luke didn't hear it. "Huh?" Luke look at Ayra.

"Nothing, anyway lets eat." Ayra shook her head. We started to eat then after that we chatted for a few minutes until the bell rang. They went to the classroom but on their way they met some bullies.

"Hi there squirts, It would be nice of you ya know, give us your money\~" their boss said it as he was intimating Ayra. "No! This is ours so get out of our way!" Even though they were bigger than us, Ayra was angry. This made Luke angry he hate these kind of people of course.

"Ohh\~ little miss squirt is angry." Their boss pushed ayra and this made Luke looked down with his being block by his hair and only darkness can be seen on his face."Just shut up and give us your money!!" Their boss yelled at them as his companions starting to surround them.

"If you don't want to get hurt then give us the money!!" His companion shouted trying to scare us. It did scare them, Ayra and the others are shaking but Luke can't take it anymore so he stood up.

"Shut up! Get out of the way before I beat you guys up!" This startled ayra and the others. They never thought of this side of Luke." Ohh so the blonde is upset huh then why don't I teach you how to respect!" the boss swing his fist towards Luke but he dodge it.

Little did Luke know the ring is glowing but it is faint so the others didn't notice it and Lynx is watching him so nothing will happen.

"Huh! What a slow and weak punch it can't even touch me!" Luke provoke them making them to go after him. The boss keep punching luke but failed but then luke was unable to notice a companion of the enemy is holding a Thick branch ready to hit luke.

'Oh no, if this keep going longer master will get hurt. Gotta do it!' Lynx went to his master then vanished.

"You little squirt!" As the enemy swing the branch even though luke noticed it late he was able to block it but it was strong enough to make him bleed." Luke!!" Ayra screamed shouting out to luke but it was too late.

Luke fell to the ground" O-ouch\~ That hurt?" Luke saw his arm that there was some black scales.' Wha-? What is this?' Luke thought but ignored it since he was in a middle of a fight.

"What!?How can you bloc-" before the enemy continued Luke punch him in the gut making him cry as for the boss he retreated.

Ayra and the others were shock seeing Luke being fine after taking the hit."Luke! Are you okay? Does it hurt?" They were tears in their eyes. "Uhuh. I'm fine no need to worry." Luke tried to calm them down, they did but ayra didn't.

"You shouldn't fight them\~! Your going to get hurt you know\~" Ayra was going to cry "Y-yeah sorry okay\~So don't cry" I tried to calm her down then wipe her tears. Then she suddenly grab my t-shirt. "Hmm? Ayra?" Luke look at her. "It's nothing." She replied with her head down.

The others were just looking at them getting close. "Now then let's go to class. Teacher will be mad now since were late\~" Kyla said as she try to cheer up. "Umm yeah let's go." Andrew rest his palm on luke.

As they went back to the room in a hurry. The teacher asked them what happened as he look that they were crying. So Luke explained what happened and then the teacher check on Luke to see any bruise or injury. Fortunately none were found, then the teacher called their parents saying that something happened and it should probably make them feel better if they go home early.

Then the teacher told luke and the others that they can go home now. Luke and the others pack their things as for the others they have to stay to learn.

Time passed by, their parents came except luke he doesn't have parents not anymore.Then their parents came to luke, "So you are Luke, thanks for protecting my daughter from the bullies young boy." Ayra's Mom talked to luke. "Ahh it was nothing\~" Luke replied to her as Ayra's father complimented him.

" Hahaha fighting huh\~ Your tough young boy being able to win without any bruise or scars\~". " It was nothing impressive sir thank you\~" Luke was happy.

"Oh then as thanks how about we take you home? Ayra told us that your parents died." Ayra's dad offered. "Dad!\~" ayra yelled at his father then look at me with apologetic expression. "It's okay, I'm used in walking, thanks for the offer." Luke refuse.

"Okay be careful then bye\~" her mom bid goodbye as I wave at them.Luke went on his way but then he heard a familiar sound.

\~MEOW

'Hmm this sounds familiar\~' Luke thought as he look around finding out who made the sound."Master\~!" Lynx shouted to him as he appeared out of thin air."Whoa! Lynx! How did you do that? And where have you been?" Luke is full of questions.

"Shh I'll explain later at home master\~ For now lets go to your home nya\~" the cat just grinned at him." Okay but you will explain yourself." "Okay master\~".

After that they continue their walk to their home. Luke look around out of bored. Luke wore his poker face again.He felt at this moment that its the same as usual..Alone.

"Master?anything wrong\~?" Lynx ask Luke. "Nah\~ It's nothing come on I'm tired." Luke sighed ' Somethings wrong with me' Luke thought as he sigh again.

As Luke arrived at his apartment, Lynx explained what happened and where he was. Luke is tired so he went to his bed.

"Nya\~Master?" Lynx was worried."Hmm... So you protected me earlier huh\~ Thanks Lynx I appreciate it." Luke thanked lynx. "Nyaa\~It's nothing.It is my job to protect master." Even though Lynx said this he was proud of it.

"Uhuh\~ Hey Lynx can you tell me about it." Luke is serious all of a sudden. "Hmm? Tell about what?"

"About me and this ring. Tell me the things that you were about to tell me last time." Lynx recalled when he said that Luke's age is frozen. "Ohh, but are you sure master? It may affect you." Lynx is getting serious too.

"It's okay since I can do all that moves even though a elementary boy can't do." Lynx just nod then told all the things he needed to know.

Lynx may look like an ordinary stray cat but he live more than his masters. Lynx told Luke that he may be a son of a master that dissapeared years ago since the ring will only chose the descendants of masters generation to generation. It may that something happened and someone froze your age. And last of all it can't be that big of a coincidence that his last name is CRUX. Cause the master's last name who dissapeared years ago is Crux.

This shock Luke since all these years he thought that his parents died in a plane crash 8 years ago. 'This is too much of a coincidence.' Luke thought with him trying to remember anything but can't as something is trying to block him from it.

"Ugh!" Luke's head suddenly hurt. " Master! What's wrong ?" Lynx came close to Luke." It's nothing I was just trying to remember anything related to it but something block me. Then made my head hurt" luke chuckled a bit.

"Huh?Something is blocking master?Is it a spell?" Lynx muttered to himself. "Master please excuse me." Lynx pat the forehead on Luke and chanted a spell." Time ticking, Space widing, Magic Flowing , For life is Living ,I, Lynx, Protector of the Ring dispells this spell!" As he chanted luke closed his eyes and everything around them begins to blur.'We are teleporting?! We are changing dimension!!' Lynx thought as he held on to Luke who his eyes are still close.

"Ugh!Lynx what is happening?I feel like being suffocated.!" Luke yell for Lynx." It's alright master just don't open your eyes until I say so!" Lynx yelled at him so that he can here in the middle of strange space.

/THUUD!/

"Ouch! What happened lynx?Lynx?" Luke was on the floor of the living room.As he look around for Lynx, he found him lying on the bed."Lynx what happened?" Luke question Lynx but Lynx was unconcious.

"He seems to be out."Luke sighed so he waited for Lynx to wake up but Lynx sounded like in a deep sleep. Luke feel weird or to be precise different but then his stomach grumbled."Better prepare some dinner while his asleep." Luke went out of the bedroom then went to the kitchen to prepare some dinner but then Luke saw himself on the mirror being tall spiky blonde handsome guy."Wha-! What the hell happened!!Is this me?Ugh my head hurts\~Maybe Lynx can explain later better cook something" then Luke went to kitchen to cook but the idea of him being all minor boy still bothers him but he just shrug it off .The smell of the omellete he cook woke up Lynx.

"Oh maste-!" Lynx was surprised to see Luke like a different person. Of course it's normal to be surprise, not too long ago he was just a brat and now his a minor boy."M-master is that you?" Lynx asked in a doubtful tone. " Yeah its me surprising right\~" Luke just grinned at him." Now before you explain what you did to me, first let's eat dinner." Luke made an omellete dish with some vegetable salad.

"Mmm, Yes master." Lynx was still there in a daze staring at his master then eat his dinner.After they ate their dinner Luke collected all the dishes and washed them. Luke is still new being all tall and all. Few minutes passed and Luke is done washing the dishes. "Now can you explain what happened lynx? What did you do to me?" Luke went to living room where Lynx is as he wiped his hands.

"Yes master. As master said that there was something blocking you from remembering your memories I tried to dispell the one who blocked you. And then everything around us just started to fade and begins to blur after that I began to realized that we were being teleported to a another dimension then I black out.But something is weird..." Lynx muttered the last sentence as he finished explaining a call suddenly came in.

/RING!!RING!!/

"Hmm, master their seems to be someone calling for you\~" Lynx went to the bedroom to look at Luke's phone on the bed to see who's calling." Master!Ayra is calling." Lynx brought the phone to Luke. Luke look at his phone then answered it. " Hello?\~".

"Oh Luke its me Ayra. I was just checking if you are ok now you have a bad fever yesterday you know\~" she sounds worried."Uh yeah I'm fine now thanks for calling." Luke said it in a energetic tone so she won't worry.' I wonder Ayra and the others are now grown up?' This idea just came to him.

"By the sound of your voice then ok, anyway about that dinner you said is it still a go? It's ok that it will be canceled since you've just got recovered." Luke can sense ayra is not worried now and this made him glad.

"Nope it's still a go!" Luke answered as he walk around outside of his apartment. He met his landlady wave at him to come close to him. "Uh sorry ayra can you hold for a second?" "Sure." She replied fast.

"Uhh what is it Mrs. Carla?" Luke came close to her." Ahh it's just that your auntie came here earlier to deliver something to you and it is quite big but you seemed to be sick so I just told her that I will tell him when he wake up and then she just agreed then drive away. The gift is in the garage boy go see it. I'll take my leave." The landlady just walk away after saying all that.' I see,I made my auntie worry.' Luke look down and then remembered that ayra is still on the phone.

"Ah sorry that took long, so the dinner is still a go." Luke apologize to her as he heard her chuckled on the other side."Naah It's ok I was being kept company here by clever." Ayra said it as Luke went to the garage to see what his auntie gave him. 'It couldn't be a car right?' Luke though as he chuckled a little "Oh and who is this Clever?" He questioned here thinking it was a another boy in her house.

"Ohh are you perhaps jealous?" Ayra teased Luke as he was burning up a little " No I was just curious nothing more." He replied immediately getting in return of ayra laughing. "Hahahaha!It was just my dog don't be upset. Unless you were my boyfriend." After she said that a thing called 'SILENCE' came between us.

"Uhh let's just forget what I said. About the dinner." She then change the topic. "Uhh yeah about that how about I pick you guys up?" Luke offered them a ride as he just saw the 'something' his landlady was talking about.

"Ohh don't tell me you'll pick us up now you have a ride\~ if so then why not? I hope you don't mind." Now she sound a little jealous. "Don't mind at all! Then how about I pick you up first then follow the other? Just give me your address." At this moment Luke is grinning looking like an idiot.'Though I did say that she won't give me her address right?'

"Sure I'll text you my address then." Ayra accepted it easily in Luke's surprise."U-uhh okay then goodnight!" Luke was feeling dumbfounded being nervous as he just said that out suddenly." Ok see you tommorow then Night!" And then after that she ended the call leaving Luke their staring at his phone.

' Wow....That went smooth than I expected.' Luke though as he scanned the car's inside and he liked it and it was color black his favorite. "Thanks auntie!" He yelled as he was overjoyed on his first car.

•NEXT MORNING CAME•

"Nngggnh" Luke was in his bed rolling around and then Lynx came up." Master can you permit me for leaving you alone this day I have to go somewhere today you see.\~"

"Ohh and is this somewhere place is something you can't tell me?" Luke asked him" Yes so master I need your permission. Can I?" Lynx became serious all of a sudden."Ok Ok no need to be serious just be back early ok?" Luke got out of his bed and then went to the bathroom.

"Yes master nya\~!" Lynx then went out to go to the his destination.As Luke brush his teeth he decided to take a jog since it's weekend. Luke prepared everything to go to the park but then he remembered he has a car now so then he can just drive it to the park and then he can jog there. And while doing it he can learn how to drive. So many benefits for him made him happy. Making his day a good one or even better.

After that he went to the car to practice driving and then drove it to the park.As time went by he arrived at the park and then saw many people jogging. Luke now learned how to drive and how to park. Luke is a fast learner so he just feel natural about it.

As Luke parked his car, he then went to park to jog. It was still 5:28 am since Luke started jog. Luke jog ang jog but that not the only thing he did he ran 2 km nonstop and then made some push ups and curl ups. He made himself a apple of the eye to the womans who also jog in the park but he just ignored it.

Time flew fast as he notice that it was 7:43 am now. Luke cooled down before he went to his car. After he cooled down he changed his clothes as he smell sweaty and all. On Luke's changing clothes all of a sudden some woman looked at him and staring at his body.Luke was bothered of the eyes staring and watching him but in the end he just ignored it.

After all that Luke decided to have breakfast make some fast cooked meal.As Luke drived to his apartment he coincidently stumbled on a puppy that was in a box. Luke went out of his car and went to check it out.To his surprise it was husky puppy.

Of course it is normal to be surprised because all husky dogs are being selled in a high price and there was no reports of it being thrown away. Luke look at the sky seeing that dark clouds are coming. Luke thought that a rain is coming so he picked the puppy and then went inside his car.

He put the puppy on the seat beside him. The puppy was shivering.'Maybe it's feeling cold or maybe it is hungry." Luke thought so he went to a store where they wash and sells dog foods. Since then Luke drive to the store and then went to the counter.

"Uhh I would like to give this dog a bath and I would like to buy food for him and the recommended one please." Luke made the order as the receptionist just nodded and took the puppy. At that time Luke realize that he was hungry so he checked the time at it was still 8:03 am so he made his way to a near family restaurant.

After a few minutes he arrive at Eric's Restaurant which was a little far from the Dog store. He entered and then made his way to a vacant table. As he sitted a waitress came to him." What will you order sir?" The waitress ask." I'll just have a breakfast set meal and some chocolate milk please." Luke just ordered casually.The waitress just nod then went away.

After a few minutes the waitress came back with his meal and placed it on his table.After that Luke began to eat his meal and then he thought 'Delicious!' as he happily ate his breakfast Luke left the payment on his table and then went back to the Dog store.

As he arrived, his puppy was waiting for all fed up and clean. Before it was a little dirty making his fur turn dirty gray but now its a black and a little white clean puppy."Whoa! Thank you How much is all I've ordered?" Luke asked as he opened his wallet to pay. "The Bath is $28.00 with a free meal and the dog's food is $216.00."the receptionist said.

Luke gave her $300 and said that keep the change then the receptionist just nod. As luke went to his car the puppy in his arms is asleep so he decided to go home straight. It was 8:53 am since luke arrive at home. Now that he entered his apartment he settled down the puppy on the couch.

"Now then what should I do?" Luke is bored as he sat down on the couch. He then looked at his ring and then he felt sleepy. Luke slowly went to sleep as his mind went to the Dragon' Ruins.

"Oh isn't that the young boy who came here before. Whats with the sudden change boy?" The man in the black cloak said to Luke." Uhh its a long story you see-." Luke started to explain what Lynx explained to him.

"I see\~ As always Lynx is a sharp one." The man in the cloak said it as his hands went through his beard.'Huh? What does that mean?' Luke thought but he put it on hold since he doesn't know something yet." Hmm..Uhh mister I didn't get your name yet." Luke scratch his head as asked for his name.

"Ohh looks like I am getting old now, sorry for the late introduction, I am the Apostle of the Great Black Dragon, The Real Dragon. You can just call me Louis since that was my name when I was still human." Louis look okay after saying all that stuff.

"Ohh so your an apostle huh. No wonder your here hehehe." Luke scratch his head again acting dumb but it was to cheer up the mood." Uh yeah so what can I do to for the chosen?" He looked okay now for real now.

"I came here to know more of the ring. I am curious of it so I want to learn everything of it. And if I learn it as soon as possible maybe I can do cool tricks like having wing so I can fly or I can become a dragon." Luke said all that like a kid that is still innocent and pure.

"U-uhh, uhuh so thats why you came here but I have to warn you, Not everything is free Some also have a great price on it. A greater power comes with a great price that your life maybe the payment." Louis is being serious." Ohhh even so It's not my fault being chosen and being a CRUX you know\~" Luke said it as he crossed his arms and pout.

'After all I don't know who I am anymore. After Lynx explained I have already accepted my fate.' Luke maybe acting childish outside but inside his serious."\~Sigh\~ Okay then, but I must compliment your naiveness and courage for this. I let Lynx train you and maybe he will tell you more than I know." Louis sweatdropped at his childish side but then gave up and let him train.

Luke light up but Luke never know that this could endanger anyone close to him."Now now you need to go back now. May you have luck for the training." Louis waved at Luke." Thanks again Louis see you soon." Luke wave at him then vanish to thin air.

Luke woke up as he was sleeping on the floor...again.This just made Luke wondered 'Am I moving that much to sleep on the floor?' And this thought just made Luke sweatdropped.' Oh right the puppy how is it?' Luke check on the puppy but it was still sleeping.

"Hmm its still sleeping but its 1:48 pm now. Maybe it woke up and then went back to sleep." Luke then went to the kitchen to see anything to cook for dinner after all his friends are coming over.

"Hmm this is good enough for 5 people including him or maybe I will still have some left overs." Luke is thinking of who can he give the leftovers.'Landlady? I still have to thank her.' Then after he thought who can he gave the leftovers. He then decides the recipe of what he will cook for dinner.

•WOOF!•

This startled Luke." Ohh so your awake. How about a small meal after all we are having guest for dinner so we'll have a feast." Luke sait it as he bend down and patted the puppy.-WOOF!WOOF!- "Hehehe you seem happy, how about I give you a name after all I will be the one who will take care of you from now on."

-WOOF!-

The puppy is obviously happy. Luke is thinking what should be the puppy's name." Mark! How about that?" Luke snap his fingers. -WOOF!- "Good boy Mark good boy\~" Luke is happy having a husky puppy. He gave mark some food and water as mark chowed down his foods.

It's almost 7:30pm, Luke decided to pick Ayra at that time so he went to take a quick bath and wear something casual. He wore a polo sky blue with some white little birds as a design and a Black fit jeans. It was now 7:14 pm Luke grabbed his car keys and then went to say goodbye to mark and went to his car.

Luke looked at the text Ayra send last night where she send her address. Then Luke drove to her house.
