The great Dragon Chapter 89: You're under arrest
The night was almost gone. Serpens and Xin should be heading back home already as any further delay could cost them more than they had bargained for."We only have one hour before midnight. We should leave now," Xin urged hastily.Serpens's eyes met hers. He understood quite alright the urgency of the situation but he couldn't risk going back without the see weed that they had initially come to get."We can't leave without the sea weed Xin. It's the reason we came in the first place?"But where can we find it?" Xin asked, her frustration palpable."Grandmother Suki's garden, I believe." Serpens quickly hailed the first cab that passed by. He knew he had to hurry up as they were already running out of time.Traveling from one past to another past has affected the space time continuum and if they should stay past midnight, they might be trapped in the past or worse, faze out of existence.They reached grandma Suki's house only to meet police officers there. They had come to deliver the

"Officer, we didn't do anything wrong," Serpens sighed in frustration. "Then can you please explain to us what you were doing in a house that had been abandoned for over thirty years?" The bald headed police officer asked, his face devoid of any smile.Serpens's brow furrowed, unable to understand what the police officer meant by saying that his parents' house had been abandoned for over thirty years. His parents died when he was five and he was currently twenty one years old.He was already having the feeling that something was quite off, but hearing what the police officer had said coupled with the fact that he wasn't seeing inspector Lui nor inspector Chan or any of the familiar faces he knew in the CIA, only seemed to confirm that indeed, something was wrong."Xin, I think something is wrong," he whispered."What's that?" Xin inquired curiously, whispering as well."I think we've come to the future as you've wished." Serpens continued to whisper. "My parents died barely fifteen y
The great Dragon Chapter 91: You let us down, Serpents!
The following morning, the chief granted Serpens and Xin bail. Just before they could leave, he gave them a card. "Just in case you don't have anywhere to go, you can put up with him. Just give this to him and you'll have somewhere to stay."Serpens took the card from him, his eyes widened in surprise as he saw the name of was addressed to, "Professor Layton,""Be careful out there. You're out against forces beyond our understanding." "Thank you Chief," Serpens nodded. "We will.""You're not planning to go there are you?" Xin asked, pointing at the card that he was holding, as they left the station."Of course not, we have to get back home as soon as possible."They hailed a cab and it took them back to Serpens' parents' house. They were careful to make sure the neighbors didn't find out that they were back. He knew once he could get the time machine to take them out, there will be no way the police can find them again.Unfortunately for Serpens, as he activated the time machine, it

"Please listen to me professor," Serpens tried to protest but Professor Layton wasn't ready to listen."Trapped in a timeline? Do you think I'm a fool? My wife and my child are dead because of you! I don't want to hear anymore of your absurd excuses.Xin had to step forward, seeing that professor Layton wasn't ready to listen to Serpens. "Professor, please listen to him. He's telling the truth. In order to prevent this, we really need to get back and we can't do that without your help?"But professor Layton was beyond reasoning. His grief had turned into a fortress of bitterness, impenetrable by their pleas. "I said get out of my property. I don't want to see your faces ever again."Without giving them a chance to explain, he slammed the door shut with a resounding thud. The sound echoed through the empty house, a stark reminder of the void that had consumed his life. He stood there for a moment, his chest heaving with the intensity of emotions, before turning away from the door.Left
The great Dragon Chapter 93: A messy future, indeed!
While Jeremy was going, Serpens turned to face Xin, contemplating whether or not to tell Jeremy that they had come from the future and had a broken time machine which needs fixing.Jeremy had really impressed him when he talked about building a time machine and something in him told him he could trust Jeremy."Do you think we should tell him about the time machine?" Serpens asked, glancing at Xin.Xin nodded thoughtfully. "Yeah, I think we should. If anyone could help us fix it, it's definitely going to be him. You can tell he's a genius. It's no wonder the other kids were trying to bully him.""Hey wait up!" Serpens called out to Jeremy who was still within reach as he hadn't gone too far."What's up?" Jeremy turned around, a serious look on his face. "Did something happen?" "No," Serpens replied, walking towards him. "It's just that..." He paused and then exchanged glances with Xin, who gestured for him to go ahead."It's just that we have a time machine,""Are you serious?" Jeremy
The great Dragon Chapter 94: A difficult decision
Serpens and Xin moved towards the house, and as they approached, he couldn't help but feel sad that his sister would not be there waiting for him as usual. The only consolation he could give himself was that there was still a chance to prevent all that he was seeing and that was for him to return to the time from which he had traveled from.Stepping into the house, he noticed the windows broken, and the paint was peeling off the walls. "Hard to believe this is home." He muttered to himself as memories of his happy days with Serena flooded his mind, making the current state of the house more heartbreaking. He just couldn't imagine how he'll continue to live if Serena were to die for real.For one reason, he was happy he came to the future. It opened his eyes to see the consequences that are likely to come upon Draketwon should Winter really set Bahamut free.As they moved through the house, they found themselves in the kitchen where the smell of Serena's cooking once filled the air.

The great Dragon Chapter 95: Attending the party
Serpens stood in front of the mirror, adjusting his shirt collar and running a hand through his hair. He had picked up the shirt from one of the bags which had been tucked away in the room.He hesitated for a while contemplating if he should actually honor Rose's invitation or just stay back. He turned to Xin, who sat on the edge of the bed, watching him.“Are you sure you don’t want to come?” Serpens asked. “It could be a good distraction for both of us.”Xin shook her head, offering a small smile. “No, I think it’s better if I stay here. Besides, you need some time to clear your head without me tagging along.”Serpens could understand her reason for not wanting to go with him to the party but at the same time, wished he could make her change her mind."Remember, we're meeting with Jeremy tomorrow. We have to live as soon as we can." Xin added, reminding him of the importance of their shared mission.As they were still talking, the sound of a car pulling up outside the house caught t
The great Dragon Chapter 96: We need to get that chip!
Serpens’s eyes widened in shock as he listened to Jack's speech. The SFX-chip, just like he had seen from the past, was not just any invention; it was his father’s creation, a project shrouded in secrecy and intended for the greater good. Hearing it claimed by another was a blow on his face. He finally realized why Jack killed his parents. This was the plan all along.He stood there, stunned, as Jack continued to elaborate on the chip’s capabilities, boasting about its potential to revolutionize technology and warfare. The guests applauded, once again as he stepped down from the podium.All through the party, Serpens couldn't shake off the feeling that something about the city wasn't just right. In his second day of being in the city, there hasn't been any sign of Winter or Bahamut whom everyone claims had been set free.The fact that Jack Brynner could throw a party in the midst of what is believed to be a city where lives are no longer safe, made him wonder what exactly was going on
