Chapter 17: Help!

Zell sighed, knowing his sister now knows his secret. He walked over to her and knelt next to her. "Yes, it's me Rose." He said calmly. "How much did you see?"

"I saw you obliterate that guy!" Rose said. "The entire midsection of his body is just gone now and there is a big hole. You did that with a single punch!"

"Rose…" Zell started.

"Why did you lie to us big brother?!" Rose demanded. "Why did you let me think I was the special one?! Why did you let father be disappointed in you?! Why did you let us think you were weak?!"

Zell didn't have a good answer, but he attempted to answer it anyway. "I was afraid." He said.

"Afraid of what you just melted a dragon?!" Rose cried. "You shouldn't fear anything!"

"When I pulled up my status for the first time, all I saw was glitches and symbols." Zell explained. "I can't see my level, or my stats. I knew that wasn't normal. I did not want to end up being treated as a freak. I didn't want to have to leave mom and dad. I just wanted to have a normal life."

"You call being a complete recluse and lying to your family constantly a normal life?" Rose asked pointedly.

"I suppose I cannot have one either way, can I?" Zell sighed. "Still, I prefer it when people treat me just like everyone else, instead of like a superior to them."

"You are the son of a Duke." Rose said as she attempted to get to her feet. She was holding the stab wound on her shoulder to staunch the blood. "You are above everyone else. No one should treat you as their equal save your family."

"Rose!" Zell grabbed her tiny body as she began to fall unconscious. "I got you little sister." Zell smiled. He lifted her up and carried her in his arms. "I just feel like even though I am of royal blood, I am no better than anyone else. Why should we be treated differently just because of who we were born to. Why should our life be different? Regardless of the answer I need to get to the doctor. Let's go, little sister."

Zell started running towards the center of the city. He had only been in his mansion and along the path to the school, so he did not know where anything was in town. He stopped running when he spotted some people.

"Excuse me!" Zell called out to them. "I am looking for the doctor, do you know where he is?"

"By the gods!" The citizen yelled. "What happened to you boy, you are covered in blood, and that little girl is bleeding!"

"Yes, I know that." Zell said. "That's why we need the doctor."

"Wait a minute I recognize that tiny miss!" The citizen said. "She's the bloody hero! Did you do this to her?! Did you hurt the hero?!"

"No, we were attacked." Zell explained.

"A likely tale." The citizen responded. "Hey everyone, this boy injured our hero!"

"What isn't that her brother?!" Another person said.

A crowd began to form around them, blaming Zell for the injuries of Rose.

"It wasn't me!" Zell said. "Like I said we were attacked."

"Then why aren't you hurt then?!" the crowd demanded. "Your covered in blood, without a scratch, means it's not your blood. Did you get jealous of your sister and decide to take out the competition? That is such a royal thing to do! Always killing one another for the sake of power!"

[Why is no one listening to me?! Rose needs help.] Zell thought to himself. [I guess I will use that then.]

Zell reached into his pocket quickly and grabbed his way stone. He thought of the beast man village and teleported Rose and himself there. They landed outside of Leon's hut.

"Leon!" Zell called out. "I need help!"

The old lion rushed out of his hut to meet Zell. "What happened?" He asked.

"We were attacked by some person saying he was a dragon god, and Rose got stabbed." Zell explained. "I tried to get help in my city, but no one would help me. Please can you heal my sister?"

"Of course, bring her inside." Leon said. "Place her on the table when you get in."

They entered the hut and Zell placed Rose down as instructed. Leon began to cast a healing spell. "Life spring!" He shouted as a faint glow surrounded Rose.

"Is it going to save her?" Zell asked.

"Yes, all she needs now is rest." Leon explained. "Kaitlyn!" Leon shouted.

Kaitlyn emerged from her room. "Yes grandpa?" She asked.

"Prepare a place to sleep for this little one here." Leon said. "She will be staying the night as our guest."

"Okay!" Kaitlyn responded as she went off into another room.

"So, tell me, what happened to that dragon?" Leon asked.

"I killed him." Zell said softly. "I was so mad after he hurt Rose. I couldn't help myself. I just lost myself to rage. I saw my past family, I felt so angry, I felt so much hate."

"I pity any fool that dares to anger you, young man." Leon said. "Don't let the dragon's death weigh too heavily upon your conscience. Had you been an average human he would have toyed with you and killed you both with a smile. His favorite pastime has always been to bully the weak. I guess he did it for so long that he lost his instincts."

"That's not all." Zell said. "When I went to get help for Rose, everyone blamed me for her injuries. They constantly taunted me and blamed me. I think they were close to attacking me! That's why I came here."

"Humans always jump to conclusions." Leon sighed. "If they only knew how powerful you were, they would have never treated you in such a manner."

"Right." Zell said. "I made some bad decisions, but I still think my power is better kept as a secret."

"If that's what you think will bring both humans and nonhumans together in peace." Leon laughed. "Look rest here tonight and we will discuss what to do about your situation in the morning. Hopefully young Rose will be able to join our conversation as well."

"Alright." Zell agreed.. "I will stay here for the evening."
