The Twin Dragons

Description

Now college freshman Soryong has lived quietly and uneventfully in his little home of Hae-an, though moving to Seoul has been quite a change. Other than the transfer from a small town to the capital of South Korea, Soryong is going to find out that many other things can fly in or out of his life before he can blink. The question is, is he safe from what's going to happen, or will he find safety in two new people in his life?

Foreword

Way up among the clouds glided a spectacle the world was unfortunately unable to behold, for the great creature was going as swiftly and secretly as she could. The snake like wonder with light blue scales was fearsome to behold, yet was the most caring mother the world had ever seen. With a crown of red on her head that also streaked across her back, the dragon flew as fast as she could, looking back occasionally for the shadows that were trailing her. But she was too swift and experienced in flying that she was yet to be caught in her escape from Alaska and now just past Japan, almost to her destination. Now that the dragon mother was about to make the end of her journey, she clutched the two eggs in her arms tighter and bent down to talk to them.

"My dear children, I pray you will prosper in your time on the earth. May your bonds be so strong that not even death can pry you apart, though I fear I cannot say the same between us. Daeryong and Soryong, my children, take care of each other. I will be in your dreams Soryong, so tell your brother oft what I looked like, and how much I do love you."

With that, the great creature flung her two eggs into two directions as tears escaped her eyes. One of her greatest last wishes then was to see what her sons looked like. But her hopes were of the least concern to the shadows that now seized her in all of her struggle and tears. The dragon submitted to these forces of malice as she looked one more time in the directions she threw her children, more tears flowing down her fearsome face.

No one watched this happen, so no one could say what became of the mother dragon, though the sons were destined to have many tangles with fate.

Chapter 14: Hmm. Interesting way to tie everything up. No dialogue to speak of and more summarizing than anything but you do well with the overall explanations. I think Soryong's outlook on his love life is a bit bleak at the moment but things are still relatively raw so I'll give him a couple more years. haha Especially because Al is there now. Is Al a shortened version of his name or is his name actually Al? lol

I think it's good you've kept the RHD threat in the back of their minds. Though again, I'll give them a couple years to get over this whole bleak outlook on life thing. Not that they should stop worrying or being concerned but yeah. It's a bittersweet ending of sorts. I will say that. But a good one for the purpose of the story. And you've got plenty of room to do a sequel if you really want to. haha

There's plenty to be said for the ELB and the twins themselves. Well done overall! Quite the enjoyable read. ^_^

Chapter 13: *gives another cheer for Soryong's last, desperate attack* haha

My biggest concern with this chapter was Injun himself. I know he's powerful but is he like super human or something? Or do the dragons just really not move that fast even in dragon form? And how the hell did Injun keep tracking/catching/jumping on them so much? I'm so confused. -_- That ELB (evil little bastard) aside, I quite enjoyed this update.

You definitely maintained a sense of urgency and desperation throughout. Soryong's mad dash to escape was frantic and certainly added to the story. The water dragon explanation felt a little offhand when it was thrown in there, but it does explain what was going on (even if you did have to hit us over the head with the info). Soryong's 'mother' comment after Daeryong spoke made me chuckle and then consider that they have the strangest reaction to the ELB closing in. >.> Eh. I guess everyone is different.

But on to the next update though!

Chapter 12: Yes!!! *cheers enthusiastically* I was wondering. ^_^

First things first because it's fresh in my mind: how big is the tunnel Soryong was in and how big did he become? I'm struggling with that part in my head for imagery but otherwise, I think this was a well done chapter. I would have liked a little more description about the "tools" for the dragons because I have nothing to go on, but otherwise, great character development. I very much liked how the brothers were able to grow closer and I totally laughed at Soryong's response to Injun.

That little bastard is turning into quite the evil little , isn't he? -_- I can just imagine his face at the end too. Hah! Take that .

But you definitely made me feel for Daeryong before the end. And I was surprised that the boys only flinched when their mother was mentioned. I expected anger or horror or something. Their reaction felt tame, but under the circumstances, I can see that too.

Good job overall! I look forward to seeing what else happens. Especially now!

Anyway. Great story and I loved it!!!

Chapter 14: well fck me. i wasn't expecting that at all! the last line of the second to last chapter was worrysome but is sounds like there will e a sequel and that would be so cool! and then the last bit about soryong and al is adorable but if there is a sequel, that makes me worried for al's life.
this was such a great story! thank you for posting it, reading a tasty 2wins story is rare enough but one that is well written is like, a random gold nugget in a pile. lol. so i really enjoyed this! thanks again and i will have to check out your other work!

Chapter 11: UGH! I have to agree with Amalya, the last line made my heart jump into my throat >.<
The hidden tunnel within the hidden room was so clever, I am thoroughly impressed. =D
But UGH!!! Those whispers made me feel sick, and then Aldo's general misguided 'kill the one to save the many' crap is so frustrating!!!! >.< I am so worried for the Twins.

Chapter 11: Ack! That was certainly a heart rending line at the very end there. T_T Poor babies indeed.

It's interesting seeing everything through the eyes of the twins as they're held captive but traveling through a place that must be beautiful in many respects. It's a harsh comparison between what the place actually is most of the time and the potential evil (or at least bad) people it harbors beneath the surface. >.> Even under the circumstances, I think the Cathedral of Saint Agata would have caught my eyes as well. lol And that was a nifty little distraction when they got inside. It's not a ruse I see often so well played. :)

I was certainly frustrated with Injun the entire time because there's a very tiny part of me that is holding out hope he's not a total but it keeps getting harder and harder to maintain with how he continues to act while he's... 'home' as it were. And the way he interacted with Aldo was certainly irritating. There was another moment I wanted to punch him in the face. -_-

And all the while, I just keep feeling worse for our boys. T_T Poor Soryong for being able to hear the whispers of the slain and for Daeryong never having known his mother. And again... that last damn line. *cries a river* The situation continues to remain bleak, though I know all hope can't be lost, but I shall have to wait and see how things pan out from here. Good job. ^_^
