Yes, I be a pirate currently. Actually.. No, I'm not a pirate, but I'm so out of it I may think I'm one.
So I ran into a small dilemma. It seems that what I had already written has caught up with what I have yet to write. Sure there's still a tinsy bit of cushion, but I can only stretch a Chapter with tiny posts so far. So! I shall take a break from posting and actually get my rear in gear to keep on typing. yey......
I could bitch about no one reading this blog. However, that is not my goal. Ha ha! Fooled ya didn't I? Honestly, I don't blame anyone for not reading it. Since it's pretty much a first draft anyways, a lot of it seems to be cut and paste and doesn't mesh together as well as it should. It also seems greatly unoriginal; which could be true. I was greatly influenced by other video games at the time. I.E. - Lunar and Final Fantasy (a mixture of FF games, but there are a few things that are similar to FF8). I will tell you, though that there is SOME originality in it. Though it may be in just a few things, like specific character designs, it's still there.
If you're also wondering if this is even going anywhere? It is. I have it started, I know how the characters will be introduced and how the storyline goes, and I know how it ends. I just need to fill in the blanks, even if they don't fit in as nicely as they should. Who knows... Maybe oneday this will get well underway and someone might be interested in it. Then I can edit the whole damn thing so it doesn't seem like some kid with rediculous big dream sprawled it out in various notebooks. *shuffles feet * Heh...
Hope to see ya all next year. ^^
Bye bye for now!

Chapter 3 (part 3)
After breakfast, everyone went on to do their own things. Gust went to sit in a rocking chair near the fireplace in the hall and knit; she was still too weak to clean. Gale went to clean up the table and do her daily routine. White Glory perched herself on a chair near Gust and examined her wings. Tempest, on the other hand, took some time out to bathe and get himself ready for a normal day. When Tempest was finished he entered into the hall, where he didn’t go unnoticed. White Glory stopped her inspection and flew over to him as soon as he emerged from the bath room. “Tempest..” her reptilian-like mouth moved, “Are you ready to help me now?”
Tempest had completely forgotten about the promise he made to her. He paused and then quickly came up with an answer. “Let me stay here for a bit longer.” He said dodging her.
The white dragon saw through his bluff. “You aren’t trying to get out of this are you?” she responded with a sneer.
Gust laughed a bit, “Tempest. Gale and I will be alright if you wanted to take some time to explore. Glory here told us about it. I’m sure we’ll manage.”
“But..” Tempest started.
“It’s alright lad, you’ve took care of us good enough. Besides, it might help with our financial situation if you happened across some fine treasure. Gale said she’ll do some part time work at the inn, so we should be alright for now.” Gust said reassuringly.
Defeated, Tempest listened to what Gust had said. He had much respect for her and didn’t want to do anything to worry her. “If you both will be alright.. Then I’ll go. I’ll make sure I’ll come back to visit as much as I can.” He said in an obeying manner.
“I’m sure you’ll have fun seeing different things. Gale made a bundle for you already. It’s sitting outside on the stump.” Gust remarked.
“Give her my thanks.” Tempest said as he started to head towards his room, “Let me get my things and we can go.”
“Mmm..” was all that White Glory got out as she prepped herself for journey once again.

Chapter 3 (part 2)
Morning light infiltrated past the divider and shown itself on Tempest’s wardrobe. The ruffled brown hair of Tempest peeked out from under the blanket. Calmly he woke up, but something was different. There was only the morning silence and nothing else. He woke up, saw his things laying on the ground, and left them there for now. Walking out of his room the silence still hung in the air. Tempest wandered down to Gust’s room to see how she was doing, but she wasn’t present. Looking for her, Tempest finally managed to make it into the dining hall. There he saw Gale and Gust sitting on the right hand side of the table and on the left, seated on a stack of books, was White Glory. Tempest put the fact that she was set at the table aside and focused his attention to the more important matter.
Gale took notice of the young man she saw as her master and waived him over to the head chair. “Come, please eat with us!” she said in a cheery mood. Tempest was both glad and confused. He was glad that she was in higher spirits. He was confused, because she didn’t insist on giving him breakfast in bed. Had she started to act like a regular person instead of a servant? Tempest shook the thought from his head and took his seat at the head of the table. Gale looked at him happily, “It’s all here before you. There’s some eggs, toast, and milk. Unfortunately.. We ran out of Jelly and butter so your going to have to eat your toast without them.”
“It’s ok.” Tempest said knowing that they were running low on food again. He motioned to the late aged woman who sat next to Gale, “It seems you are doing much better Gust, but are you sure you should be up and moving around.”
Gust finished the piece of toast she was munching on, “Yes, I’m feeling very good. I thank you for getting the medicine for me. Don’t worry, I’ll be up and running in no time.”
Tempest wasn’t sure what to do. Here his hard work paid off, but it seems that it paid off too well. He knows they were both grateful, yet he felt a sense of something out of the ordinary. It was then that he remembered White Glory’s presence. He turned his head to look at her. The little white dragon stood upon the books gracefully munching away on a piece of toast, as if she wasn’t even a creature. “Glory..” Tempest spoke to her, “How was your stay?”
The little dragon raised her head from the dish laid before her and bobbed her head in a nod. “Good! Your servants are very nice! It’s been a while since I had a nice bed to sleep in and a good breakfast!”
Tempest looked angrily at her. “They aren’t servants! They’re family!” he yelled pounding the table. All three stopped eating and stared at him surprised by the noise.
White Glory frantically apologized, “I’m sorry.. I thought the were your… I didn’t know!!!!”
Tempest calmed back down and gave her a look. “It’s ok I guess.. You didn’t know.” His tone still a bit irritated, “I am wondering about one thing, though.” They all looked confused.
“What’s that?” Gust asked.
Tempest pointed to White Glory, “Why she’s eating at the table?”.
“Isn’t she your guest?”
“Hmmm…”
“We thought she was since you brought her home..”
“I suppose so… Very well.. Let’s eat.”
They all continued back to eating. Tempest started to dig in himself since he was late, almost guzzling everything down.
Gale took notice of the young man she saw as her master and waived him over to the head chair. “Come, please eat with us!” she said in a cheery mood. Tempest was both glad and confused.

Chapter 3 (part 1)
Within the spacious and empty hall of Tempest’s home, a door creaked from the lower of the two floors. A young woman aged in her mid twenties crept out of a small wooden door. Her long brown, messy hair reflected her frail, worried face. Fixing her apron she walked into the hall after checking on her mother, Gale began to return to her duties. “He’s been gone awfully long..” she muttered to herself. She was about to walk towards the kitchen, when the front door opened. In walks the young man in his sheik-like cap and his cape with a small white creature floating behind him. He looked at the woman staring back at him, looking both mad that he had snuck out and curious of where he had gone. “M-master… Where.?” she asked troubled.
Tempest gave her a slight smile, “It’s ok now, Gale. I have the medicine.”
Gale’s fluster expression turned to one of suppressed joy. “Thank goodness.” She said walking closer to Tempest and gesturing for him to hand it over, “May I have it to give to her please?”
Tempest took out the flask and placed it in her pale hands. “Here you go, “Make sure she gets what she needs…” Tempest nodded to her, “I need some rest now.”
“Yes… Tempest.” she bowed slightly and then returned to her mother’s room.
Tempest walked up to his room to sleep for the night. Before he entered he motioned to White Glory, “There’s tons of rooms to stay in. Make yourself at home.” Even though he didn’t know how she slept, she nodded all the same. He then proceeded to go into his room, where he collapsed on the floor. “What a day…” He said to himself, “At least I was able to get the medicine for Gust today.” He then proceeded to unarm himself and remembered he forgot to put his hat and cape back in the coatroom. Nonetheless, he just tossed it to the side and went to bed.

Chapter Break 2
Another chapter finished and another picture to display. This time a anime-style attempt of Tempest. I think I like my original style more then this one on all the characters. They don't look as cool. 
One day I may need to draw them all again and color them, but that's for another time. Yes, you will see more then just Tempest. I have two versions of each character (my traditional style and the animesque one) and will post one at each break. The next will be of course, White Glory. Since I'm better at drawing animals/beasts/creatures, many of you may enjoy her pictures more.
