Simon asked Chronia if she had any idea how Chromia appeared in her life,and Chronia implied that she had no idea why would Chromia turn into an entity,at the very beginning she thought that Chromia was only supposed to be a cloud of negative feelings,which would only appear in her dreams,however,that day Chromia stood right in front of her and dragged her back when she was trying to do something terrible,Chronia was astonished.
“I don’t get it…Chromia is the embodiment of your negative emotions,she’s not supposed to be an entity,is she?I have bad emotions too,but I’ve never seen a strange version of me come out and tell me,’Hey Simon,stop being such a jerk,and get back to work’,that never happened”Simon said,“How could you make her appear…?Is it because of this place…Or is it because of you?Is this the result of your powers?”
“I don’t know…I only have a few fragments of memories of that period…Cause I…Um…”Chronia lowered her head,“Well,you know what I mean…”
“Hey…It’s okay,alright?I didn’t want to misjudge you or anything,I’m more likely to be interested in her existence…Is she supposed to be a dragon,a shadow,or something else?”
“If I’ll have to make a guess,I suppose she’s a shadow?Cause you see how she disappears,and…You can’t touch her after that…And you can touch me when I go invisible”
“That’s true…”
Chromia appeared behind Simon and yelled,“What the (beep) are you talking about me?”
“Yikes!Ahh!Chromia,holy (beep),aaaah,that’s damn scary,you…Gah!”
Chromia laughed,“I see your funny look and I enjoy it”
“Whatever…We were talking about…”
“Yeah yeah,I know…You’re discussing whether I’m a ghost or a thing,right?”
“What are you…”
“I’m not a…Ghost?I’m a Shadow Dragon,and if you ask me how was I born…I can’t answer you,cause the first time I appear was inside Chronia’s dream,when she’s beside a dark lake”
Simon looked at Chronia,“A dark lake?That’s quite detailed huh?”
“I didn’t know what I was thinking,maybe I was just feeling scared,and I was living by a lake?So…”Chronia tapped her head and continued,“Yeah,that’s all,Chromia appeared in my dream and she looks really weird,she was in a melting state…I thought she’s a monster”
Chromia was somewhat angry,“Ugh,I should have eaten you…”
Simon asked Chronia,“You told me that Chromia didn’t hurt you at last in your dream,right?”,then he turned to Chromia,“In my point of view that’s actually bizzare,cause I didn’t expect a cloud of bad emotions to comfort its host…What made you so different?”
Chromia shrugged her shoulders and laid her hands,“I can’t really tell,theoratically I was supposed to scare the (beep) out of her and make the rest of her life a miserable one”
“What?That’s god damn evil”Simon and Chronia said together
“Well,I AM the negative being,it is my job however you like it or not…”Chromia said,then she changed a tone,“Still…When I looked at her,something changed my mind…I guess I was more interested in making fun of her instead of torturing her at that time,I wasn't exactly one of those Shadow Dragons who follow their rules,or maybe it's because that the host has already stored too much negative emotions that some of the positive feedbacks transferred onto me”
“That's a weird way of showing mercy to her,Chromia...That was terrible.But as a fact I suppose I should thank you for that...For not collapsing Chronia totally”Simon wiped the sweat on his forehead,“I digress,so you said you're a Shadow Dragon,if I'm making the right assumption,you're some sort of company to the host,right?”
“Sort of,yeah”
“Does everyone have a negative shadow?”
“According to what I see,no,most dragons I see in the clan didn't have a Shadow Dragon with them,maybe they didn't really have feelings inside them to get them annoyed or bothered”
Chronia looked at Chromia,“I've never met any dragon...?Have I?”
“YOU didn't,no,but I have,even I thought you were having too much negative energy...Imagine the way you look yourself...Pff,I don't even wanna talk about it”
“Okay...?Fine...”
Simon glanced at Chromia,“Shadow Dragon,eh...Is that even supposed to be one of the dragon species?”
“I guess not?”Chromia said,“Up to now I've only seen a few with a shadow chasing their backs...”
“According to what I have learned from you,I guess creatures like you only appear under great and strong negative emotions,and the target was supposed to be collapsing the host,however,some of the characteristics of the host would be inherited to the shadow,so things might be different if the host was originally a kind creature...As for the embodiment...I can only assume that it's because of Chronia's power that held your body so you can stay in the entity form...But there's no way to test it for now...”
“Eh,blah blah blah,I suggest you mind your own damn business,if you're trying to get rid of me,I'll try haunting you as well,clear?”
“Okay okay,I'm just interested,okay?I'm clear,crystal clear...”
“Pff,okay,on the go,don't call me”,Chromia disappeared
Simon looked at Chronia,“Isn't she tired keep appearing and disappearing?”
Chromia appeared again,“Thanks for your care,I'm not”
“Gaaahhhhhh!Sweet mama of a (beep)...Chromia!!!!”
