Dragons RP

froggytails • 25 January 2014 at 5:16 PM

@hedwig68 Lol. And yeah, Yoru is a fantastic character, and I would love for him to be an olderbrother to Astrum. ^^
@pebblestar-nightclan Omg, shipping them 7 days a week. x33
And yeah it would be cool to kill off some characters,(although my characters are a bit too new to kill off.. So they wouldn't really be on the 'kill' list.) but I have to agree with Chapus on not to have too big of an event since she's right- so much has happened already. (And also it would be too much for meh little Astrum. x3)
@chapus2009 Yeah. x3

Corue nodded. "Yes, I've had plenty of bad experiences with others. I'm not a very young dragon- although I'm not too old either- I've gone through much in my life. Dragons have stolen from me and done a lot to hurt me, but I don't let it get in the way of me making friends with others." He smiled back at her. "What about you?"

Astrum looked down and thought for a moment, then she finally looked back up at Yoru. "How can you tell me all of this? You hardly even know me, yet you're able to tell me things about yourself; what has affected you."

pebblestar-nightclan • 25 January 2014 at 5:30 PM

@chapus2009
@hedwig68
@froggytails Ohhh yeah, 24/7! xDD

I agree that nothing big should happen. I think Vester and Zoru should sneak-attack, kill a couple of them one at a time. I have two dragons in mind for who to kill, and one of them will help start the plot I have planned in mind. I'm not gonna tell you who they are, though. x3
So, do we all agree on this? Wanna make sure before I go doing anything unwanted. .-.

Noctus offered a smile back, it was one of his signature adorable ones. "We cool...?"

"Yeah, was she okay?" Rune asked in concern. "What happened, anyway? How did you find her?"

Corvelix sighed and appeared thoughtful for a moment. "Well... Yeah, I've had stuff happen to me. Some jerks who beat me and such as I was a rogue dragoness... But it's all okay now, because I live here where I'll be safe..." (Such irony. Sky Palace attracts so much danger...)

chapus • 25 January 2014 at 5:42 PM

@hedwig68
@froggytails
@pebblestar-nightclan

That sounds good! c: So a few dragons die from assassinations of Vester and Zoru, maybe some others can die of other reasons (example: disease, rogue dragons attacking, etc.) Although I would like to clarify one point. I think it would be better if not ALL of them died at the same time. Maybe like... one or two die one day and then some more die a bit later to avoid suspicions or conspiracies. :I

Medousa then smiled brightly, looking as if nothing had ever happened between the two. She nodded vigorously, "Yup!"

Draken then got a bit nervous, but it didn't show much, "Oh, I was just you know... outside, flying around a bit. I then found, well, more SMELLED, her and I took her here right away." he said, looking at them with his bright amber eyes. (You know what I'm hinting here Pebble. x3)

Wellan nodded in agreement, "I say that too. I suppose they need some time alone." he sighed, "Maybe I could go talk to Hoshi, and if she can't do it, I'm sure she can point me to somebody who can help Chasmos."

hedwig68 • 25 January 2014 at 6:10 PM

@froggytails Haha, this'll be his third "sister". He is the only guy in a world of females. XD
@pebblestar-nightclan
@chapus2009
I like that, maybe Zoru and Vester could strike one or two hunting parties. It could make the kill seem like it was rogue dragons that killed them instead of Zoru and Vester. I have a dragon or two that need to go, I already know how who and one of them can be Zoru and Vester's victim.

Yoru shrugged, "I find that sharing helps, keeping all your feelings bottled up inside of you is bad for you.And I'm telling you this because I understand what you're going through, you're not alone Astrum and you shouldn't try to act like an adult. You're a hatchling and you deserve to be able to just be a hatchling."

Tenebrae cocked his head, "How odd... Well i hope she's alright, you helped her out though! That's really cool!" He said with a small bounce of excitement.

Magia nodded, "Good idea. Hoshi is in the kitchen at the moment I believe, the sooner you ask the better." She said thoughtfully.

froggytails • 25 January 2014 at 7:43 PM

@pebblestar-nightclan Definitely. x33
Yeah, I like it. 😊 And also, maybe they could steal that elk from Corue and Corvelix..?
@chapus2009
@hedwig68 Lol. Poor Yoru. xDD

"I'm glad you're okay now," Corue said softly.

"Pshh, like being a hatchling is what helped me survive being a month on my own." Astrum puffed, sitting down. "I can't see how sharing would help. No one wants to hear what I feel and I know it. And I don't want to bother anyone, or else they might bother me!"

pebblestar-nightclan • 25 January 2014 at 7:51 PM

@chapus2009
@hedwig68
@froggytails Maybe. I'm not sure why they would, exactly, but... xD

Glad we agree. ^^ This is gonna be sad, though. ;;

Noctus grinned. "Good. So you wanna play or something?"

Rune nodded and smiled. "Yeah. That was a good thing, Draken! Did she say much to you?"

Corvelix nodded and smiled. "Me too..." When they reached Sky Palace, she landed and headed into the entrance with the elk.

chapus • 25 January 2014 at 9:19 PM

@hedwig68
@froggytails
@pebblestar-nightclan :'c

Medousa nodded, still smiling, "Yah! Maybe we could go outside and fly into the fields. It's a bit far from the island, but it's such a nice place and the weather is fantastic!" she said, grinning, running outside, giggling.

Draken nodded and smiled, "Why thank you." he said, "Not much... I think she has a case of amnesia or something similar. She couldn't remember much. I let her rest, and I hope it's just the hunger and fatigue doing that to her." he said, looking a bit worried. He then heard his stomach make a loud rumbling noise. His eyes suddenly turned to a pale and almost transparent misty grey. He huffed and slightly shook his head.

Wellan nodded and made his way to the kitchen, looking around for Hoshi.

hedwig68 • 26 January 2014 at 2:45 AM

@froggytails Haha, yeah. XD
@pebblestar-nightclan I hate killing characters off, but it must be done. ;(
@chapus2009

Yoru looked at her closely, "Am I bothering you then? You don't have to talk about it but sometimes it helps. I promise that it really does help sometimes."

Tenebrae nodded, "Well I hope she ends up okay." He noticed the small change in his features and couldn't help but wonder what had happened. Why had he gotten that sudden look in his eye? And Tenebrae had caught the faint rumbling of a stomach too.

Magia headed back towards the castle and her room.

Hoshi was quietly working in the kitchen, helping the occasional dragon when needed.

froggytails • 26 January 2014 at 1:34 PM

@pebblestar-nightclan They are hungry so they take food. x33 lol
Yeah, this is gonna be sad.. ☹️
@chapus2009
@hedwig68 x33

Corue landed with her and walked beside her. He was thinking about how he admired her wisdom and kindness, and he didnt want anything bad to happen to her again.

Astrum widened her eyes a bit, not expecting that question. "No you're not bothering me.. But I'm different than others.." She paused for a minute or two. "You actually want to hear what's bothering me?" She finally asked. Looking into his eyes to see what he was thinking. She still had thougts running through her head: Maybe he's just trying to get this out of you to find your weakness. But he spoke about his parents, so why shouldn't I? Don't trust anyone. But then what do I do? Her mind was spinning.

pebblestar-nightclan • 26 January 2014 at 1:48 PM

@chapus2009
@hedwig68 Yus... And I'm afraid for the aftermath, honestly. DX
@froggytails Ha ha, okay. xD Vester will take it like a good girl~ (she may be powerful but she will do what I tell her >:c)
I just realized I feel sorry for you guys pinging my long username. xDD

"The fields? I don't think I've been there before," Noctus said thoughtfully. "Yeah... I think we should go." He grinned excitedly at her as he chased her outside. "So you need to show me where to go, because I don't know!" He felt a burst of excitement in his chest; he was always into adventure, especially with his friends.

Rune tilted her head in concern. "Draken? Are you alright?" she asked, lowering her head.

Corvelix hadn't said much afterward. She was deep in thought, thinking of the recent events and about other dragons, particularly Corue. As they reached the dining hall, she dropped the elk off and nodded to him. "We'd better hurry to go get that other elk."

Meanwhile, Vester was deciding it was time. For assassination. And her mind drifted... She liked to play with Zoru, but he was different. He didn't get mad like other dragons did when she teased them, just told her to go away. But perhaps he could assist in the job. They could kill ANY dragon they wanted. But they had to make sure not to cause a big commotion... Yes. 'Go and find Zoru,' she thought to herself as she went off in search of the dragon.

chapus • 26 January 2014 at 2:41 PM

@hedwig68
@froggytails
@pebblestar-nightclan Haha it's alright, I just click the little bell under your username. x3

Medousa laughed joyfully and launched herself up in the airs. When the island was no longer under her, she started flying downwards, spinning and turning as she cheered, laughing. Despite her wings being quite small for her bulky body, she was still a good flyer. Her weakness was that she couldn't glide too well and long distances could tire her quickly, for she always had to flap her wings in order to keep flying. But since her wings were very muscular, she had a good control over them and she could pick up high speeds in a matter of seconds. The dragoness could also very easily twirl and spin around since her wings were smaller than what was 'recommended' for her mass. But this didn't stop Medousa from enjoying herself in flight.

Draken shook his head, "It's fine, I'm just a bit hungry." he thought outloud. Realizing what he had just said, he tensed up, "Ah, I'll go outside now. I need to get some things done." he quickly said, before fast walking towards the exit. He then took off.

Wellan saw Hoshi and smiled, "Hello Hoshi. Would you mind if I borrowed a bit of your time? We need to talk."

hedwig68 • 26 January 2014 at 9:48 PM

@froggytails
@pebblestar-nightclan Yeah, same here. And it's cool, we've been RPing together for so long that I never even notice how long it is anymore. XD
@chapus2009

Yoru dipped his head, "I honestly do, I don't want to hurt you in anyway, I swear. I just want to help you out, I feel like it would help you. I'm not gonna be like whoever has made you this untrusting, I won't use anything you tell me against you." She could see the conflicting emotions on Astrum's face and knew he needed to try and show her that he was harmless.

Tenebrae watched Draken leave curiously and he cocked his head at Rune, "Well that was kind of odd. Anyways, tag!" He said, his mind quickly switching back to their game as he tagged her and ran off without another word, giggling the whole time.

Hoshi looked up from what she was doing and saw Wellen, "I guess so, I think I can take a short break." She complied, giving a short dip of her head, "So what is it that you need, Wellen?" She asked him, obviously curious at what they needed to talk about.

Zoru was lying in a field very close to Sky Palace, yet hidden so that he wouldn't be found by any of their warriors that might be passing by. He was quietly vying his time, planning on his next move. The Palace now knew of him and that he had killed a few of their members, it'd be hard to get close to the Palace a second time, they'd spot him quickly, he was much too big of a dragon. He needed a fool proof plan, one that could get him near the Palace once more.

froggytails • 27 January 2014 at 12:29 AM

@pebblestar-nightclan lol, steal like a good little girl. X3
Your username is fine, I click on the little bell too. 😸
@hedwig68 I'll continue Astrum's story in my next reply since I wrote so much already. X3
@chapus2009

Corue nodded as he dropped his elk beside hers. "Yes, let's go." He stayed beside Corvelix and went out the hall and soar into the air.

Astrum's eyes grew huge as all the fighting in her head finally came to one final resolution. "You're telling the truth," she spoke from her thoughts. She suddenly started tearing up from the battle that had happened inside her. She walked over to Yoru and sat down in front of him and waited for herself to stop crying. "My parents... Were very good dragons." She started, finally feeling that she could trust him, that she could trust someone again. "We were a very happy family, up until HE showed up." She said, her eyes darkening.

pebblestar-nightclan • 27 January 2014 at 12:44 AM

@chapus2009 Oh, ha ha. xD Good to know you're good with it. 😸
@hedwig68 Oh, lol, do you ever click the bell, too? Sometimes I forget it exists... xD
@froggytails Ha ha ha. x3 That's my Vester~ ❤️ And good to know you're okay with it. 😃 Also, I am very intrigued by Astrum's past. 😃

BY THE WAY you guys, I noticed I've been slacking in roleplaying these past couple of weeks, so I'm gonna try and make the effort to make my posts longer and more descriptive. To make up for the crappy posts before. xD

Noctus lifted up off the ground, too. He had learned how to fly quite fast; it seemed this generation of hatchlings was a rather advanced one. He followed Medousa excitedly. "Wait up, you're going too fast!" he laughed, though there was a hint of exasperation in his voice.

Rune watched Draken leave in confusion, suspicion written on her face. She then jumped as Tenebrae tagged her and giggled. "Hey, you caught me off guard, not fair!" she said, chasing after him determinedly. "You'll pay for that!"

Vester flew out and pried the fields with her eyes for the familiar large dragon called Zoru. She spotted him and flew in a downwards spiral towards him. She landed easily beside him and with a glance, asked rather simply, "What are you doing?" She did not have a readable tone in her voice, but she was sure Zoru knew what she had come to him for. It was the time. Picking off dragons one by one would be easy... A simple task for grand dragons such as them. It would be well worth her wait.

Corvelix trotted out and spread her wings, letting the wind pick her light body up and send her up into the sky. She flapped her wings faster to stay in pace with Corue. An uneasy feeling began to arise in the pit of her stomach. "Corue, something doesn't feel right... I don't quite know what it is. I think something bad is going to happen... Or maybe somebody DID take the elk..."

chapus • 27 January 2014 at 12:55 AM

@hedwig68
@froggytails
@pebblestar-nightclan Haha, it's never bother me in the first place to be honest. xD

Medousa chuckled and grinned. She then slowed her wing flapping and soared a bit, backing up until she was right next to Noctus, just a bit ahead of him, "Here, I'll go up in front of you to make it easier for you." she said, turning her head towards him for a second to smile at the prince. After a while, she spotted the fields and landed, though she had a bit of difficulty. She then waited for Noctus to arrive

Draken sighed as he flew in the sky, feeling the warm breeze under his wings. He just hoped that he didn't worry the hatchling. The last thing he wanted was one of them following him all the way to... No. Draken shook his head, he knew they wouldn't do that.

Wellan cleared his throat, "Um, as you know, Chasmos has some... problems. So me and Magia have decided that it's maybe time that he get's some help, but for good." he said, "I know that you two aren't really talking to each other at the moment, I can understand, but we can't find anybody that will fit the job of teaching Chasmos how to handle himself and control his emotions a bit more. Even if his rages moments are suppressed now, they are still present and as we've seen, present a danger to the people of Sky Palace. Pretty much all to say that you could maybe try and help him, unless you don't want to."

hedwig68 • 27 January 2014 at 10:07 AM

@froggytails Haha, alright. ^^
@pebblestar-nightclan Honestly, until Chap mentioned it, I had completely forgotten it was there. XD And I haven't been bothered by your posts, I mean it's usually me that leaves the shortests posts. XD
@chapus2009

Yoru listened quietly, looking at her with a soft expression of sadness, he hated when other dragons cried. It was always so sad to watch. He stayed silent as she spoke though, not wanting to interrupt her when she was finally opening up and talking bout her past.

Tenebrae giggled at the fact that he managed to to catch Rune off guard. He continued to run as fast as his tiny little legs could take him, darting around passing dragons' paws and trying to not run in to anything in the process.

Zoru looked up from where his head was rested on his paws and he looked at her with a blunt, expressionless face. "Having a picnic. What does it look like I'm doing," he said quietly as he rose to his paws. "Now I think the better question is, what are you doing? Why are you here?" He could already tell what she wanted though, she was going to offer him her assistance in his work. That wouldn't work out well though, Vester was too much of a loose cannon, she was unpredictable. Besides, he preferred to work alone.

Hoshi's face changed from one of curiosity to one that seemed to show her conflicting emotions. She let out a sigh, "I'm not sure I'd be the best for the job, he would not allow me to teach him, I am sure of that. I would help, and I wish I could, but there is no chance that Chasmos would let me even say a word to him, let alone train him on handling his emotions."

froggytails • 27 January 2014 at 7:31 PM

@pebblestar-nightclan Yeah, your posts have always been amazing. ^^ And I'm happy you are excited to hear what Astrum has to say. 😸
@hedwig68 Lol, Zoru's sarcasm. x3
@chapus2009
Omg I thought about Astrum's story all day trying to make it more realistic and everything. x3
(HOLY CRAP THAT STORY'S LONG)

Corue narrowed his eyes. "Yeah.. something does feel wrong.." He looked down at the ground while smelling around for others around. "I don't smell anyone yet, but... someone might be taking the elk..." Corue stopped himself from accelerating anymore then he already was. He didn't want to tire them both out.

"My parents were very trusting and loving dragons. Whenever they met someone, they always did what they could to help or to become friends with them. And one day this black dragon showed up. His name is Zoroke." Astrum said, growling at the name. "He met my parents while they were hunting, and had helped them hunt since my parents weren't the best hunters. When they all came back to me Zoroke asked them what we were doing in the forest we were in, since apparently the territory belonged to others. My parents told them we were just walking through since we were travelers. We went everywhere. Zoroke only said 'hello' to me, and nothing else. Just ignored me; probably since he thought I would be just a waste of his time. And so he stayed with us and traveled with us for about two weeks. By that time he had grown to be a 'trustworthy' and 'honest' friend to us. Helping us hunt and everything, but he still never said anything to me other then 'hello...' Anyway, that day he got into a huge fight with my father. In the area we were in, prey had run low, and they were deciding who would get the last piece of prey. I should've just stayed but I... I thought about my own needs first." Astrum shook her head. "I asked my mom if I could go get a drink of water from a nearby river, and she told me: 'Yes, it would be good if you didn't see all of this conflict.' I agreed, and went off. While I was drinking water I heard a sudden earsplitting shriek with a shout following afterwards that shook the entire forest. It scared me to death, making my whole body tremble. I started sprinting toward where my parents were, but then I heard a laugh. A laugh that was filled with all of the evil and chaos and insanity in the world. It stopped me in my tracks before I got to the spot where my parents were. I wanted to run, but I couldn't, so I walked shakily until I could see the cave we were staying in through a bush. Zoroke was standing over my parents bodies, who..." Astrum's eyes starting raining heavily with tears. "Who had both of their throats slit open." She suddenly burst into tears at the memory. The memory that haunted her. When she got to the point where she could speak again, she continued. "I didn't scream when I saw them like that, I still don't know why. I just stood there, frozen in my place, paralyzed. My mouth agape. I had never felt so broken, so vulnerable, so dependent on my parents being there for me, so like a child. My heartbeat quickened, and my breath came in short shallow breaths. I wanted my heart to stop since I was terrified of Zoroke hearing it. He suddenly looked around and said: 'Great, now I have to find that little pest of theirs'...' I knew he was talking about me, and it made my body even more paralyzed then it already was. He continued after he shook his head: 'No.. the girl must've already run off at the sound of a shriek like that.. but whatever- it'll die without it's parents anyway.' After that he walked away. And after awhile of him being gone, my body could move again. I ran to my parents, going from my mom to my dad. I started licking their wounds like an idiot, trying to heal them or something." Astrum rolled her red swollen eyes. "Something inside of me was telling me that I could save them... so I tried. I tried to warm them with my body heat, but their bodies just got colder and colder as the hours went by. I licked their wounds, but they kept bleeding. I cried for a long time, then I went away. My guess was that he killed my parents for the last scrap of food, but I'm still not sure. Maybe he just wanted to kill, or maybe it's for some other reason. Whatever it was, I knew that after that, I could never trust anyone again. Zoroke acted like we all could trust him, but we were all foolishly mistaken." Astrum finished. "I will never be a fool again."

Oh- fun fact- Zoroke killed Astrum's parents because they had wanted to give the last scrap of food to Astrum, but Zoroke found it stupid to give the last piece of food to what he called 'a stupid waste of space.' So he killed them, tired of seeing idiots in the world.

pebblestar-nightclan • 27 January 2014 at 7:49 PM

@chapus2009 Okay. xD
@hedwig68 Lolol, okay, I hope I can make mine longer, though. x3
@froggytails Thanks. ^^ And sad days. D: Poor Astrum.

Noctus followed Medousa and landed next to her with a puff of relief. "So this is it?" he asked curiously, looking around. "I've never really been very far from the castle." He glanced around in awe, taking it all in. "Are there other dragons here?" he blurted out without thinking.

Rune darted after him, managing to dodge every obstacle, her mind focused on catching Tenebrae. She picked up her speed until she went as fast as possible before she leaped for her target and tackled the young hatchling. "Gotcha!"

"You KNOW why I'm here, Zoru," Vester said coldly. "And, I know what you're thinking, it wouldn't be a good idea to work with me. But it's only just this once... And it won't take much. We can strike at different times. Close, but not close enough to make them suspicious. And kill just enough to send them into chaos... Then, they can kill each other. And whoever is left, well, we can finish them off. Or you, if you prefer." She shrugged. "You don't have to bother with me, but even if you don't, I'm still going to kill some dragons. Maybe I can get rid of the king..."

Corvelix sighed and nodded, but continued on. "If someone IS taking the elk, we need to hurry, and get there fast."

chapus • 27 January 2014 at 8:27 PM

@hedwig68
@froggytails Omg that backstory. ;n; Hgggggnnnnn so many feelings. *sniffle*
@pebblestar-nightclan

http://fav.me/d740ntb

I know I already posted this on dA but I just felt like putting it here. xD JUST CAUSE.

Medousa nodded, "Yah, it is. I just love the soft grass, the salty smell in the warm and fresh air that passes here, the sound of the animals nearby... it's so... relaxing." she said, sounding happy as she smiled at Noctus, "Other dragons? Hm... I can't really judge that. But by the smells I've picked up when coming here, there might be some dragons that pass by here, but none live here. Strange this is, I always pick up the SAME smell here. There's some dragon, but it's kinda mixed up with metal and some other... smell." she said, quickly lifting her head towards a part of the woods. There was a rustling noise just a few feet ahead of them and slight growling noises were heard.

"Aha!"

After a victorious cry, a familiar silver armoured dragoness came jumping out the bushes, a small squirrel that she had chased after in her mouth. She smiled brightly before looking up, only to face a growling Medousa who's hair snakes were hissing wildly at the human dragon. Kisha's ears flattened against her skull as she dropped her squirrel, her jaw wide open and her enlarged eyes filled with terror, "O-oh my..." she gasped, her words trailing off. Medousa roared and easily pinned Kisha to the ground, being much heavier, stronger and larger that the domestic dragon. She then dug her large black claws into the terrified Kisha's armor, but not yet reaching the skin, "You better give me one reason RIGHT NOW as why I shouldn't KILL YOU!" she hissed, her goggles glowing a deadly red as she barred her teeth.

"I-I-I mean no h-harm! P-Please don't kill m-me!" Kisha cried out, utterly terrified. She then turned her head and saw Noctus as a glimmer of hope appeared in her eyes, "Oh by the di-" She then stopped talking, for fear that she was not supposed to say such stuff, "Oh by the devil! I meant devil, haha!" she chuckled nervously. Medousa, too angry to try and see through Kisha's lie, only stared at her with angry eyes.

Wellan sighed, "That is what I feared... but I fully understand." he said, "But... thank you for your efforts." he said, nodding before he walked off. He didn't ask her for advice on who could help Chasmos, for he had a person that could maybe help him: Ushu. He then walked back his 'shop' which was actually a temple. Situated near the entrance of Sky Palace, it had two large wooden doors with statues in front on each side. The inside was well lit and very cleaned, with white and gold walls that had been painted. Walking in, there was a large room with a few wooden benches and a large shrine atop of a fountain. There were large windows on the left side, letting in a beautiful light from the front of the palace. There were many flowerpots, bookshelves and a tree right behind the fountain. Behind a door that was BEHIND the tree, there was a door that led to a room were there were benches in front of shrines on the left and right side of the room, meant for either praying, resting or waiting. At the back was a counter with a door behind, which was where the 'consulting' room was, where he could talk in private with guests or people in need. Next to the counter, to the left, was a door to enter another room with plenty of beds, where 'cursed' people or visit would stay. And on the other side, on the right, was a door with a staircase, which led to his room as well as Ushu's and an extra room in case of need. He then walked to Ushu's room and knocked the door, "Ushu, it's Wellan." he quietly said, not wanting to disturb her.

hedwig68 • 27 January 2014 at 8:55 PM

@froggytails Yeah, Zoru loves his sarcasm. XD And poor Astrum, I feel so awful for her. ;.;
@pebblestar-nightclan
@chapus2009 That's awesome!! 😃 I can't wait to find out who all the dragons are.

Yoru's eyes widened in surprise as he listened to the whole story and he looked shocked. "You've been through all if that and you're still so young? You're brave, I can't imagine going through all of that and still being able to hold myself up. That stupid dragon had to come in and mess up your lives like that. Your parents didn't deserve to go through that," he told her quietly. He looked at her with soft eyes filled with remorse and even a slight bit of awe.

Tenebrae giggled and said, "Dang it, you caught me." He got to his feet and turned around before chasing after her excitedly, running straight at her.

Zoru actually seemed to consider the plan, he had to admit it was a good one. The perfect plan to strike, but discreetly so. Nobody would ever even realize who it was, there would be no scent or anything left behind if they used magic. He could help but smile slightly at the thought of Sky Palace slowly and painfully. He let out a short chuckle, "It's a good plan and it might actually work. The Palace is a close knit community, it is basically a large connected family, everyone knows everyone. Kill a few members of the family and you destroy the balance, one kill could affect so many and it'd be the perfect way to watch them crumble and burn. Something that they all deserve. I only have one question: Why do you want to see Sky Palace fall? What is your motive?"

Hoshi let out a soft sigh and just shook her head as thoughts mulled through her head about everything that had happened. She stared at the ground, frozen in her spot. She almost seemed unable to move from where she sat right then. Finally, after being a statue for several minutes she looked outside through a small window and stared at the gardens before giving a longing sigh and walked back towards the kitchen, trying to push away all the thoughts that tried to consume her then and there.

froggytails • 27 January 2014 at 9:06 PM

@hedwig68 Lol, Zoru. x3 Yeah, me too. :'( Poor Astrum..
@pebblestar-nightclan Yeah, poor little dragonling. ☹️
@chapus2009 *cries with you* Oh wait I just remembered- wasn't Taso listening this whole time? x3 Your drawing looks awesome. 😃
Do you guys think that I should make Zoroke another character of mine.. or do we have enough villains already? 😸

Corue nodded, set on getting to the elk in time before anyone else.

"That's why I can't trust you; why I can't trust anyone," Astrum suddenly said, getting up, her eyes welling with tears. She needed to get away from everyone, but she wanted to stay with Yoru. She finally felt that she could trust him again... and she wanted to be comforted, and have her family again. She wanted the love that families offered. Her body didn't go either way. It didn't go away or toward Yoru, it just stood there, not knowing which way would be best to go.

@chapus2009 x3 And uh-oh, Wellan is approaching the Ushu... xD
@hedwig68
@froggytails In my opinion, we have enough villains for NOW, but he could definitely come in handy later. x3 But that's just me, I think do what you want. ^^

"Medousa, STOP!" Noctus growled. "Give her a chance to explain herself, AT LEAST!" He ran over to the two.

Ushu trotted over and opened the door. "Oh, hi Wellan~ What do you need?" she asked cheerily, beaming at her mentor.

Rune squealed and raced off, running outside and into the gardens. "Ha ha ha, can't catch ME, Tenny!"

"Me, personally?" Vester began to examine one of her paws, looking at the claws. "I don't have a motive. Although my old kingdom DID used to have problems with them... A long time ago. But my old kingdom was stupid, so I did not follow their order. I only want to see Sky Palace fall because in my opinion... The weak should fall, and the strong should live. And Sky Palace is beyond weak, to me. I mean, just LOOK at the dragons... The way they all care for each other..." Vester snorted. "That's where my old kingdom went right, but still, they were very, VERY stupid. If not strong in brawn, at least make up for it in brain..."

Corvelix flew towards the spot where the elk would be laying, when she saw what sent her into a fit of fury; a rogue trying to steal it. "Corue, look!" she hissed.

chapus • 27 January 2014 at 9:36 PM

@hedwig68 Thanks. ;D Five of them are already chosen, but I have yet to choose 'background' dragons. o3o
@froggytails Well, I think it's a good idea, but like Pebble said, I think it would be better if he appeared a bit later in the story. c: And about Taso (haha I had forgotten about him. xD) I THINK he was there... dunno.
@pebblestar-nightclan Haha, yup. >D

Medousa grumbled and sighed. She then hesitated to let go of Kisha, but she then backed up and let the domestic dragon get up. She was shaking, but still looked to be up for a talk.

"Explain yourself." Medousa said coldly.

Kisha gulped, "I-I was just hunting around h-here." she said, as if she was addressing herself to a lieutenant.

Medousa let out a heavy and annoyed-sounding sigh, as if she didn't want to waste her time on this. She then barred her teeth, but she stayed quiet.

"U-Um... c-can I ask a question...?" Kisha said.

"...Sure." Medousa grumbled.

"I'm just curious... what... what is a child of the Viper Queen doing out here?..." Kisha said, her voice still trembling.

Medousa then shot her head up and gave her a a dark and cold glare, "Don't you DARE say my mother's name you stupid filthy human dragon!" she hissed loudly, her voice booming. Kisha flinched but stood still, "A-Ah, I'm sorry..." she said, looking at the ground. She then gave an apologetic look at Noctus. Suddenly, Medousa looked up at her snakes, so seemed to be talking to her again. She backed up and looked at Noctus and then Kisha and then Noctus again. She hissed, "You two... know each other?..." she growled in anger with a hint of sadness in her voice.

Kisha shook her head calmly, "No. We don't."

"Why should I believe YOU?" Medousa spat at Kisha, who backed up, shocked and scared. The green dragoness then turned towards Noctus, "So?" she asked, expecting an answer.

Wellan chuckled and smiled, "Cheery as always. Just before I ask you my certain favour, have you finished your daily chores? I don't want to make you late on that." he asked.

hedwig68 • 27 January 2014 at 9:46 PM

@froggytails ;n; And yeah, i agree with the other two. ^^
@pebblestar-nightclan
@chapus2009 Haha, coolio! 😋 And whoa, Medousa is going a little nuts. o.o

Yoru was surprised that she hadn't left by then and he couldn't help what he did next his. His tail appeared and wrapped around the hatchling in a comforting fashion. He knew she'd probably freak and run away but he just wanted to help her and decided that this was the best way to add any comfort.

Tenebrae chuckled and raced after her, "Watch me! I'm gonna catch you, don't worry!" He said and then pounced straight towards her, trying to pin her and tag her.

Zoru nodded, he could understand why she wanted to kill them. Weakness was an awful thing and that's what love is. To love is to destroy. (Got that from one of my favorite books of all time. 😃) "Well then I guess we are partners, for now at least. After this, I want to be left alone, this is simply a one time thing." He reminded her bluntly.

froggytails • 27 January 2014 at 9:57 PM

@hedwig68 OMG THAT'S SO SWEET YORU IM GONNA CRY.
@pebblestar-nightclan
@chapus2009 *Hides from Medousa* She's becoming scary. x3 Yeah, on page 230 Taso looked at Astrum and knew that she was hiding something. ~
Okay, cool. 😊 It's fine, I was just making a suggestion- if you guys ever need another villian any time then, ya know. 😉 ~

Corue gasped before he came soaring down onto the rogue. He landed on him and threw the dragon away from their prey. "What do you think you're doing!?" He shrieked.

Astrum was taken aback by the gesture of kindness toward her, and she knew that he really did want to help her. She ran over to him and curled up next to him, nuzzling her head into one of his front legs. She hadn't felt kindness and comfort like this in forever, and it was so nice. This is what she needed all this time, but she could never find it, no, she just ran away from all the kindness in the world. But it found her again.

pebblestar-nightclan • 27 January 2014 at 10:16 PM

@chapus2009 Dang. o-o Medousa is... Wow. Not cool, lady. She's very "racist." xD
@hedwig68
@froggytails Yeah. ;D He'd make a good one.

Noctus looked coolly at Medousa. "No, I don't know her. Why would she lie about not knowing me?" He glared at the other dragoness. Her behavior had made him a bit irritable.

Ushu nodded. "Yup, did them all this morning!" she said proudly. "So what is this favor?"

Rune tripped. "Ouch! Well... You got me." She shook it off and stood up, glancing at Tenebrae. She chuckled. "Heh... Better run!"

"Very much agreed..." Vester murmured. "After this... Well, you probably won't ever see me again. I'll be far away from here."

The rogue snarled and squirmed. "What does it look like I'm doing? Eating your kill!" he growled.

Corvelix landed beside the two fighting dragons and stood over the prey, growling.

chapus • 27 January 2014 at 10:43 PM

@hedwig68 Yah, she kinda is. xD She has a thing against domestic dragons. But she'll get better, I promise.
@froggytails Hm, true. xD Aggggggghhhh again in the feels. ;^; Astruuuummmm. TnT
@pebblestar-nightclan Yah, she is. XD

"Because all domestic dragons are filthy liars and killers." Medousa hissed.

Kisha, who had been quite calm towards Medousa's rash and mean comments, now seemed highly offended, "That's not true!" she roared, her voice sounding sad yet angry.

"Yes it IS!" Medousa hissed.

"Hpf. You should probably listen to her, she speaks the truth child." said a calm sounding voice from the woods. Suddenly, a large golden dragon walked out the shadows. He seemed to be in his late teens, almost reaching adult age. The domestic was averagely sized for his age, but still bigger than Medousa. His body was a light yellow golden-ish fur with some scales on his neck. He had beautiful large feathered wings, piercing blue eyes and a shining bronze armour, who seemed to have many bumps and marks left by teeth and claws, "My name is Percy, Viper Queen child. Although I do not mean to offend you, don't you think you are going a bit too harsh on Kisha? What if I told you that I thought that all Viper Queen children were evil and cruel beings because I just met one or two?" he said, his voice loud but calm. Medousa looked guilty and shamefully stared at the ground. Percy then sweetly smiled and lowered his head to her's, "There's no need to hate each other, no matter what side destiny or our heart has put us in, we are all dragons at the end of the day." he said, "Regardless, I would like you two, if possible, to send my greeting to His Majesty Kimbra and Her Highness Magia for freeing my mother from a dark age, even if it meant killing her." he said. Percy then lifted his head at Noctus and smiled, "A proud allure of a prince you have Prince Noctus II. You wear your grandfather's name well." he said, putting his wing on top of Kisha, "Let's go Kisha, we have a busy day ahead of us." he said, picking her up softly using magic and putting her on his back. Percy then started walking back towards the clearing in the forest, making one last gaze towards Medousa and Noctus, smiling, as he disappeared in the woods.
_______

Name: Lieutenant Percy Charles III (AKA Percy)
Gender: Male
Side: Domestic (Wow, we haven't seen this in a while. xD)
Looks: http://eggcave.com/forums/topic/43763/
Personality: Adopted as a hatchling after being abandoned by rich human family that respected all type of dragons and growing up with them, he grew to respect everybody himself. A gentleman, but he knows how to fight for justice. He is very formal, sometimes a bit too much, but he thinks that being polite and 'well-educated' are important.
Crush/Mate: None.
Children: None.
Other: Although he sides with the humans, his 'army' (not really his as he isn't General yet) sides with nobody, they mainly protect cities and participate in rescues. But if a war was to come of domestic dragons vs wild dragons, they would have to go with humans by orders.

Omg I know I won't use him much, but I'm already in love with this character. ;u;
_______

Wellan chuckled and nodded, "Good, I knew you would have finished by now." he said, smiling, "Well, you know Chasmos, right? Me and Magia have decided that it's time for him to try and control his emotions and sort things out in his head to avoid more 'incidents' from happening. Sadly, nobody seems fit for the job and the only person that came in mind was well... you. And it would be a chance to put your skills and what I teached you to test and if you succeed... I will be glad to raise your rank from apprentice to cultist." he said.

hedwig68 • 27 January 2014 at 10:55 PM

@froggytails AWWWW SUCH AN ADORABLE MOMENT! ❤️
@pebblestar-nightclan
@chapus2009 Ah, alright. XD And Percy is awesome! XD He just shows up, talks up a whole bunch of random stuff and then just leaves. XDD

Yoru smiled softly as the young dragoness nuzzled into his leg and he gently nosed her head in a soft gesture. He was still surprised that Astrum hadn't pushed him away like usual, instead she had simply accepted his comfort and Yoru couldn't help but feel protective over the hatchling. After hearing her story and seeing how young she was, he felt like he needed to help her.

After making sure that Rune was okay he giggled and turned around and ran, searching for a place to hide from Rune. He leaped into a bush and stayed still hoping to fool Rune.

"Very good then, when shall we begin all of this then? I would suggest it be soon, very soon," Zoru said, sitting there calmly as he thought over the plan Vester had come up with.

froggytails • 27 January 2014 at 11:52 PM

@hedwig68 *Dies from adorableness*
@pebblestar-nightclan Thank you. ^^
@chapus2009 Lol, and omg Astrum and Yoru are hitting me in the feels too. x3 And oh my jazz Percy is awesome. 😃 I love personalities like that. ^^
Okay, can I just say how excited I am to see who's going to end up being Astrum's mate in the way way future? xDD
She'll be all like: 'Stay away! I can't trust you!"
Other dragon: "But I love you!"
Astrum: "I love you too! *kiss*"
It'll be awesome. xDD

Corue snapped at the rogue's neck, threatening him before he jumped off the dragon. "Now get lost before I hurt you more!" He hissed.

Astrum's eyes started tearing out of happiness. For once ever since her parents were severed away from her, she was happy again. She felt loved again. She started chuckling all of a sudden. "Great, now I'm really acting like a hatchling instead of acting grown-up," she said, humorously.

pebblestar-nightclan • 28 January 2014 at 12:30 AM

@chapus2009 I love Ushu so much. xD
@hedwig68
@froggytails

Noctus looked quite proud at Percy's comment and he turned to watch the two leave. He looked at Kisha and sighed, then turned to Medousa. "Well? What do you think of them now?" He seemed to have calmed down quite a bit since Percy spoke.

Ushu beamed. "Really? You would do that for me? Yeah, I can try," she said, smiling brightly. "Do you think Chasmos would mind if it was me? I mean, I'm not really sure if he notices me, and if he does, if he likes me or not..."

Rune looked around in confusion. Where had Tenebrae run to? She began to look for him, when suddenly she realized she could scent for him and find him. She tried that next, looking right in front of the bush he was hiding in.

Vester chuckled darkly. "Why not now? Or later tonight. It's the least expected time for an attack, which makes the impact worse. Also... Who do you want for sure to kill? I mean, YOUR kills. Name them, whoever you want."

The rogue snapped. "NO! I've gone for days without a single scrap of sustenance! I try so hard! And finally, when I find something, YOU have to come and steal it from me!"

Corvelix cleared her throat. "Excuse me... But this is OUR kill. If anybody is doing the stealing, it's clearly you," she spoke up coolly, but seemed relatively calm compared to earlier, when she first spotted him.
