Once I gained consciousness, I noticed loud sounds and crying. Taking in a breath I wined in slight pain as my tush was slightly throbbing. I had since noticed I had been reborn and was thankful to the gods that I would get a redo since my last childhood was spent in a hospital for the most part. Looking up brought bright golden eyes fac to face with my line of sight. 'this is dad I think'. I started to listen to more of the words and realized that my gift for language must have been working since I was understanding all that was said. "my wife, he will be River, after the ever-flowing rivers to the west" said dad. Then I choose Dayis for his middle name as he is as bright as the day and as a memorial to great grand dad who passed away in the last demon war" said the woman who was holding him. 'must be mom since she looks beautifully exhausted.
Must have been a long birthing process.' "look at his eyes darlin' he's got one of each. One gold for dragon and a bright red for the vampire. God has blessed us with a baby who will morph. It's a sign". 'mom seems to understand a bit about my double race. that's good. Let's morph now I want to explore' I started to push away from my mother's arms with a force she didn't expect and half way to the ground I had already turned into dragon. In the floor length mirror to the left of the bed I saw a gold, black and red baby dragon who was displaying wings that were to weak to fly. My legs were holding on with the fact a dragon body was already strong. Mom had screeched in horror when she saw me drop to the ground, but as I started to move towards dad she exclaimed "oh my gosh honey he can already transform."
Dad walked the rest of the way towards me and picked me up and said to me "smart boy I know you understand my words, do not drop unexpectedly to the floor again as not only was it dangerous it also scared mother" I nodded my head with tears starting to form thinking I was in trouble and hurt mothers feelings so I flapped my wings and glided to mothers side nuzzling her cheek in apology. Mother patted my head and forgave me and said "you must be hungry River lets go eat" (since in dragon form, I knew I would be able to eat solid food). Mother carried me to our dinning hall and ordered a maid to make sure they cut my food for me them introduced me to my siblings from dads first wife who had passed away.
"Son this is your first brother, Micha (sounds like (mike a) your first sister Silva, and the twins who are Tetalti(boy) and Della(girl). Children this is you baby step brother River Dayis and he is half of both with a transform ability he also seems to understand everything so far." Dad explained to my siblings before we ate and there reaction was that of shock and awe as the baby dragon before them was new and cute the baby dragon had fur around what looked like large cat ears as well as fur everywhere else their urge to pet the dragon only went away as food was brought out. "let's eat family" said dad in a happy expression. He had 5 beautiful healthy children. All was right in his heart even knowing the financials he was going through he still was grinning happily.
