Fire watched Neo from her position in some bushes. High above them Tharazzi flew elegantly watching both the half panther and the alien.
Be careful... Tharazzi muttered flying slightly higher and spotting who they were looking for.
They are coming. Fire smiled.
Wouldn't it just be easier for me to grab him?
Fire didn't answer but suddenly put down the double-ended spear she had been holding. She was amazed that Neo hadn't heard her yet.
Go on then. Go get him. She growled staying in the bushes and waiting for the black and red dragon to get in the right position. Just as Tharazzi stretched out a claw to grab Neo Fire sent a flaming ball at the dragon knowing it wouldn't hurt him.
"Hello." Neo smiled frowning as Tharazzi suddenly moved backwards and growled but the fire missed Tharazzi and hit Neo. The fire dragon grabbed Neo quickly and flew down to Fire.
You missed. He said angrily, the instant he touched Neo the fire had gone out but he had still been burnt.
Neo sat up and looked around.
"Ow." He said weakly looking between the two.
"Get on." Tharazzi and Fire said in unison.

Topaz laughed at Emelin after being drenched. It wasn'r cold, but really relaxing.
"Do you want to know something?" Topaz smiled, blinking. "I'm the Knight of Wind." After blinking, she found herself looking again at the odd streams of wind like material. She tugged one that was right near Emelin and twisted it just slightly.
From her fingertips, the wind sped up, issuing a cold blast of air, right at her. She chuckled quietly to herself. Vermelho also sent one, though his didn't really work. The wind sped up for a moment, wobbled slightly, then fell back into place. He growled and dove back underwater.
For a moment, it seemed as though he disappeared. Then he burst out of the water, scattering water droplets all over Topaz. He soared around a bit, then fluttered to a neat hover above Siencyn.

Emelin felt the wind rush past her, enough to rustle her hair into her face and send a grey feather from her wing into the air. The feather floated on the small breeze's current and fell on top of the water, in front of Topaz.
The wind died and her red hair fell back into place. Emelin brushed a strand of her damp hair behind her ear and looked at Siencyn. He was treading water in front of her, his scales and fur reflecting the moon's silver light.
She took off her boots also and set them aside. She walked slightly into the water, only up to her hips and felt the comforting embrace of the water against her. She started to go in circles, with her fingertips barely touching the water's surface. Siencyn dived under the water again and swam gracefully around her legs as she seemed to be dancing to unheard music.

Neo frowned but got onto Tharazzi's back and before he had chance to get comfy or secure the dragon took off soaring effortlessly between the clouds.
"Are you ok?" Fire asked holding onto Neo's clothes to stop him falling.
"I'll live." He replied shrugging lightly.
"That didn't answer my question."
"It did, just not very well."
Fire gave up, waiting for Tharazzi to decide where they were going.
How long is this going to take? She asked.
I need to find a place to land. He wanted to be awkward and wouldn't land unless there was water nearby and enough room for him to walk properly.
Not many places like that in a forest. Fire pointed out hearing Tharazzi's thoughts although he wasn't trying to disguse them.

Topaz watched as Emelin entered the water, but averted her gaze. She felt as thought she was witnessing something sahe shouldn't, something sacred. So she silently called over Mel and coaxed him to grow large. Then she hopped on his back fromt he water, and he took off, soaring gracefully, his serpentine body seemingly without wings.
Vermelho could not be happier. His wings were practically invisible, but at a quick flick, he made them visible once more. They were like rolling clouds, light and puffy. Topaz perched on his back gently felt the cool wind through her hair. She immediatly relaxed. Even more so with the moon infront of her. Vermelho seemed to read her thoughts, and sped directly at the moon. Topaz, in all the moonlight, raised her arms, letting the moonlight ad the wind collide with her body.

Emelin didn't even notice Topaz's departure. She continued to spin and dance in the shallow water. The water began to move away from her body and instead move upward. The water separated into strands as Em raised her arms up with her wings.
Siencyn flew out of the water and hovered in the air. The strands of water touched Siencyn and wrapped around him.
The water quickly and silently went back to its place and only ripples were left. Half her wings dipped back into the water and Siencyn floated back down into the water and swam into Emelin's arms.
"The water is so relaxing." She smiled and scooped Sien in her arms. She silently and swiftly walked out of the water and sat on the bank. She looked back out into the lake and watched the ripples hit the sides of the lake.
"Where did Topaz and Mel go to?"
Siencyn looked up. -Up there.-

Tharazzi finally found a place he thought was suitable and landed.
"Next time i ask a question please try and answer it properly." Fire smiled jumping from the dragon's back while Neo clambered down.
"Sounding like my teachers isn't good." Neo replied watching Tharazzi change to his smaller form wondering how he did it.
"So you weren't born a genius?" Fire laughed though she stopped when he nodded.
"Well, almost. I knew pretty much everything when i was created. I couldn't acess it and still can't but its there, somewhere. I went to school to learn to write."
"You are really confusing." Fire sighed deciding not to ask because she wouldn't understand.
"Maybe you are the confusing one." Neo smiled shaking his head and sitting down beside a tree acting fine even though he had just been burnt.
"Are you sure you are ok?" Tharazzi asked trotting over to the alien.
"Yes. I am fine." He replied still smiling, he was always smiling.

Topaz's mind was racing. The wind... the moon... Emelin.. Onyx... Jager... Vermelho... Life... Neo... Fire... Everything was happening so fast, she couldn't stand it. Finally, she let a yell rip from her throat.
"Stop!" Everything ceased, including the wind. Vermelho was now gently staying air born, shivering at the force of her voice.
.: Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to sound so harsh. :. She thought apoligetically.
.:Its okay, Topaz. I was tired anyways. :.
.: Oh alright... :. Then a thought came to her mind, a thought so crazy it just might work. .: Mel, fly back over the lake. Directly over it. :.
He did, and once he had stopped again, she stood.
.:What are you doing! You'll fall! :.
.:Shut up, I'm going to try something... :.
She blinked. Instantly she saw those odd strands again. But this time, there were vertical ones as well.
.: Down drafts, Mel, look! Just as I thought. :. And before he could reply, she had leaped, arms wide, off his back. Behind her, she heard him screech and thrash about, scared for her.
.: Don't worry, I'll be fine. :.
As she fell, she closed her arms so that she was falling headfirst down. She concentratedon a strand of air that didn't seem to move too much from where she was falling. Its was vertical, and strong. Just before she hit the water, she reached out and twaeked it. She was instantly slowed and reversed by a huge blast of wind on the waters surface. She was absolutely weightless fo a moment, and she felt as though she could fly. A moment later, and she was dropped into the water.

Emelin was deep in thought and stroking Siencyn's neck. She looked expecting to see only the night sky, but instead saw Topaz falling from her dragon.
Emelin quickly stood about to go save her, but thought against it, why would Mel let her fall?
Suddenly she slowly, almost to a hault, and fell into the water.
Siencyn tumbled onto the dewy grass as Emelin stood. He shook his head and gave a glare to Emelin's back and looked up to see Vermelho hovering in the air.
He grinned his dragon-like grin and grew twice his size and forced himself into the air. He stopped in front of him and floated there, looking in his eyes, almost as a challenge.
Emelin watched Sien join Vermelho in the sky and put her hand on her hip and a grin came to her face.

Topaz popped up right near Emelin. She grinned and splashed her, the water sparkling in the moonlight. Then she turned to see Vermelho and Siencyn facing each other... as though about to fight.
Mel gave a short, bark-like growl, and dove underneath Siencyn, only to come right over him and back to whre he started. The maneuver took hardly a second.
.: You're in my element now, Siencyn. Bring it on, if you can! :. Mel began to climb, blinking, and watching for the perfect downdraft.
Perfect... he laughed heartily to himself. He'll never know what hit him. He opened his jaws and snapped them hard on the draft. A heavy wind swept towards Seincyn, strong enough to flatten him, had he been on the ground.

"If you are fine then can we please go somewhere? Staying still is really boring." Fire begged jumping up and throwing her spear at a tree as a leaf fell, pinning it to the trunk with the tip.
"Impressive." Neo smiled.
"You are always smiling." Fire pulled the spear from the tree and watched Neo carefully, it was beginning to annoy her.
"Sorry." He said biting his lip to stop himself from smiling again.
"No need to be sorry." She muttered spinning around wondering where they were.
Where we are depends on what you plan to do. Tharazzi said. He was the only one that knew where they were.
Neo still needs to find Freyr.
That is an interesting name. The space knight's dragon from Ithranna was named that.
So?
Fire frowned.
"We were going to get some food weren't we? But then we got distracted when we kidnapped you." Fire said pointing her spear at Neo.
"Sorry. You can have some money if you want." He pulled his hand from his pocket with plenty of different sized, shaped and coloured coins pouring them into the half panther's hand.
"You know more about this place than i do." He muttered, watching as Fire sifted through the coins.
"Were you rich on your planet?" Fire smiled handing the other coins back to Neo.

Do you have a better idea? Lyude sighed rolling his eyes suddenly hearing voices. The voice of Neo.
Your friend is nearby. He pointed his head towards the sounds.
Romana listened and heard Neo and Fire. She moved slightly closer so that she could see them.
"They have money." She smiled speaking quietly so she wouldn't be heard.
Think your thoughts. I will be able to hear them. Lyude said looking up at the angel.

Emelin laughed and looked up at Siencyn and Vermelho. "Now what are they up to..."
Siencyn blinked and the next thing he knew he was being knocked from behind with a strong wind. He flew foward, almost losing his balance. He got his balance back and floated for a moment. -So you wanna play that way eh? Well you're above mine!-
Siencyn dove and came back up in a spiral with a trail of water following, surrounding Vermelho. The spiral closed in around Mel and dropped back to the lake, bringing Vermelho with it.
Siencyn floated in the air in momentary triumph and dropped back into the lake, following Mel.

Submerged under the water, and in shock, Mel forgot that he was a dragon for a moment. He struggled like a puppy under the pile of everything else, but then his wings flew out and he shot out of the water again, shatering the calm air around him. Then he shook his fur dry and began to skim the water, keeping a sharp eye out for Siencyn who seemed to have disappeared under the water again.

Siencyn watched from under the water, Vermelho skim around on the water's surface. Sien's dark scales helped him stay covered in the dark waters, but his glinting silverish fur didn't do him much justice.
Siencyn swiftly followed Mel's path and grinned at himself.
-This is fun!-
-Well I'm proud of you Sien. Just don't get you or Mel hurt alright?-
-Oh alright...-
Siencyn still followed behind Mel, and after a while of stalking him, Sien sped up and flew out of the water, spraying Mel with water and hoping to give him quite a surprise. Siencyn did a mocking type of twirl in the air and dove back into the water with a sense of grace.
