OOC: Oh it's okay I'm not very active either.XD
IC: Sammy's eyes were wide and panicked. She was completely surrounded! Around her were five less then friendly looking humans. Four of them were welding short swords and one had a very large net in their hands. Sam was depressed and was cowering in the middle, as she had no means of escape. She couldn't run cause she was surrounded, and she couldn't fly because when she was ambushed one man had cut her wing from behind her. She whimpered, trying to stay equally far away from the people as she could. Hashes cried out for help, but she heard nothing in response apart from the men sneering and the one with the net speaking up. "Don't bother. Just come a little closer, we won't hurt you."

(Two quick questions before I write up a response: one, location? Like, a forest or what? And two, how big are dragons in this world normally, and how big is Sam?)

OOC:Ah welcome! Of course you can jump in anywhere! If you want you can join Kar, Red and Jack, or I can make another character?
Hehe that's understandable. I think the only reason I thought that was funny is because the first colonists of Australia were convicts, so you you were bad, you really were sent 'down under'. It's probably more of plan inside joke for Aussie's sorry.XD IC: Kar clicked his back teeth lightly together, something he did when he was thinking or remembering things, before shaking his head and looking down. "No, I'm not apart of any culture I'm afraid," he said quietly. He wasn't going to say it, but his mother was exiled from her city before he was born and never told him anything about her old home or his cultural origin. Did he want to know? Sort of yes. He'd tried adopting certain religion and cultures, but nothing really work out for him, so he eventually settled with simply just existing and being thankful for it. OoC :: Actually, I was thinking about that after you mentioned it. It's just makes it funnier though.
IC :: "Okay.... I see. Hmm, what culture does the royal family follow then?" He asked, figuring it'd be a good segway into these questions. He knew humans had royalty, as more often than not the humans spoke about their king needing a good, suitable dragon army. And possibly some pets if some of them turned out good enough- obviously Jack wasn't for some reason. And he figured it was due to his blindness that made him a bad choice. Not as though he knew much else about the things wrong with him.

OOC: Ooh yeah sorry I forgot about that. Location wise she's deep in the jungle. As far as size though? I'd say they average around the size of a house, maybe a little smaller, but they can really be any size and shape. Sammy is herself about the size of a human male.
Oh good Creamy. Yeah it's a little amusing if ya think about it huh?
IC: "Well, for the sake of keeping a mutual respect from every type of season and creature, they are neutral. At least publicly they are neutral. It could be anyone's guess if they were a part of anything outside of the public's watchful eye," he explained, tilting his head. Even with his rather long lifespan of hundreds of years, he has actually never spoken or even seen the royal family is person. Whatever he knew, it all from the books and scrolls that he used ribbon and read. Well he still did own them actually. He left them in the home they were going to seeing as he used rollover there. He just hoped they weren't degraded of destroyed, it had been a long time after all.

IC :: "So, who exactly are they? Aside from being royal dragons? Can there be royal dragons?" Jack asked, suddenly gaining more curiosity. "Are they seen often?" The idea of royalty for dragons sounded cool, but he had doubts if they actually existed- because a creature that didn't favour anything sounded amazing. Even Jack favoured things! Like.... eating small mammals over fish. Nothing against fish, but mammals were easier to catch. For the most part. But the idea of royal dragons sounded great!

IC: "Well they're a lot like humans actually as far as how public they are. They live in one of the largest dragon cities, which I forgot to mention," he sort of trailed off at the last part as he realised that he forgot to explain what dragon cities were. "Dragon cities, so you know, are cities that are more suited for a dragon's way of life. Though just the same way dragons live in human cities, humans live in dragon cities, but they are the minority," He explained quickly before stopping to take a breath. "Anyway, the royal dragon family's life is actually quite private. Of course it's not a secret, it's just not very well known like other royals."

(alright, finally getting time to reply lmao.)
Suddenly, a loud roar pierced the jungle, for a moment silencing the cacophony of birds and monkeys and other animals, and turning the heads of the five humans in surprise. A few of the massive jungle trees creaked, leaves rustling as a shadow fell over them, blotting out the sun as it descended from the tree-tops. The silhouetted dragon was massive- about the size of a large house- with blazing golden eyes and a green aura where the sunlight reflected from its scales. The humans scampered out of the way as it landed with a boom, legs protectively on either side of Sammy. With a lash of its tail it sent one man flying, and then bared its teeth at the others, letting out a low, threatening growl.
"You are not welcome here any longer," the dragon snarled, its voice booming but unmistakably female. She snapped at one of the humans, her sharp fangs meeting only inches from his face. Then, one of the others let out a cry as a second dragon- this one very much smaller, only about the size of a small elephant, and with white scales- emerged suddenly from the foliage, snapping the man up by the leg and tossing him into the forest. The green female gave the white dragon a somewhat disapproving glance before turning her attention back to the remaining humans. "Go!"

OOC: Hey don't worry about it, sorry I'm only replying like once a day too.
IC: The remaining people fled as quickly as they could, dropping their weapons and everything on the way. They were here for a small, easy to manage dragon, not to reveal with these...these beasts! Though one person didn't flee immediately, a tree elf stood her ground, sword in hand. Her pride stopped her, though not for long. In a few seconds she growled and turned to leave, yelling out that they'll be back again. While all the went down, Sammy had shrunk down into the ground as much as she could, using her wings, one being cut and bleeding, to cover her body like a thin dark brown leather blanket. She was also shaking out of fear more then a tree on a very windy day. She hadn't seen anything of what had happened, as she had gone into this position right as the larger dragon landed. When she heard no more sound, she tried to shrink even more. "P-please don't h-hurt m-me," she squeaked, her voice sounding like she was about to break into tears. She didn't want to die, not now out of any time.

OoC :: words
IC :: Jack's eyes widened at the thought of a dragon city. He couldn't envision one, but he could think of how one would be like. "Have you ever been to a dragon city? Have you ever been to the dragon city where the royal dragons live? h, have you ever met one or seen one and heard about one- who are they, and how many are there?" Jack accidentally unloaded a lot of questions at once, pure curiosity striking every bone in his body. He wanted to know as much as he could about dragons and their culture.

Kar chuckled at the young dragons enthusiasm before blinking. Deciding to take it one question at a time. "Of course I've been to a dragon city, they aren't really rare. There's one just a couple hundred miles west of here. Over the mountains," he explained. "Ah, yes I've been to the same city they live in, it is the capital. Technically it's two cities in one. Half is the more human city, while the other half is the dragon type. There's only one royal family for the dragons, such as there are for humans, elves and dwarfs. I've seen them while I was visiting the city, but I've never actually met any of them personally," He said, trying his best to answer all his questions.

IC :: "Why don't. You choose to live there then? Hmm. I want to ask what any of them look like, but that at is pointless. What else have you heard about them then? Are the humans there kind? Oh, and have you ever wanted to try to meet one of the royalty? I mean, some humans from the camp always talked about themselves wanted to meeting their own king personally, but how they never got to. Sorry about all the questions, but I've never heard about any of this before..." Jack trailed off as he realized how much he was asking, look in sideways towards the ground he assumed. He supposed he talked to much, asked too many questions, He was just so curious to know.

OOC: I hath returned!
IC: Red, while they were talking, had actually gone to sleep. She was quite a lot like a cat, sleeping away most of the day as it goes by. Kar had noticed, and seeing as she was probably leaning against Jack, he wondered if he noticed too. Nevertheless though, he continued the conversation as though nothing happened. "Oh no, ask all the questions you want young one(, cause it helps me establish the world). Why I don't live there? I've never been one to stay in one place long. Now I have Red that's a little harder, but before that I always traveled, mostly alone," he said, thinking. He hadn't really ever had the chance to explain the world to someone, even his daughter never asked. At least, she did but he only answered carefully. "No, I've never wanted to personally meet them. They're busy dragons, they don't need a drifter like me to waste their time. Although as much as I've never met them, I know what they look like, everyone does. Our queen is straight silver, just like you actually, with two gold scales under her eyes. Our king is black with swirling cold patterned stripes running on his back from head to tail. They only have one child, but the egg was stolen and is still lost"

OoC :: Blah, sorry for not responding sooner. by the way, Jack actually has two older siblings. Elizabeth and Kadin actually, sorry, don't know if I mentioned that...
IC :: Jack, had not noticed, for the reason she was already partially leaning on him before and he had gotten too used to it to notice the difference yet. Another factor to that was his intent on listening to the responses of his questions. "That sounds like it'd be really pretty to see. It's a shame, meeting royalty sounds like it would be fun to me- or maybe I'm just being silly because humans always romanticize royalty. What are their names though? If you know them.... that is. (btw, i do not have names for jack's parents, so feel free to make that up. also, glad to help establish the world and stuff with my curious dragon.) But they sounds interesting!"

OOC: Oh my gosh I'm so sorry I never responded to this! If you don't respond that's fine, I shouldn't have left this for so long!
Oh you did mention that didn't you, I will remember this time.
IC: Kar shook his head with a smile. "Oh no no no. You're not silly for thinking that. There are a lot of people and dragons alike would be honored and would love to meet them. I'm not exactly the right example for you," he said, chuckling. No he wasn't exactly the norm. He was like the traveling homeless hunter. Usually dragons live very similar to humans. He would probably show him and Red eventually what the cities are like. "Their names? Well his siblings are Elizabeth and Kadin, and his parents are Queen Victoria and King Henry (I cheated XD)," he explained happily.

A dark black dragon swooped down from the sky, hurtling towards the ground at terminal velocity, yet completely silent. No fear, wings curled close, and spinning slowly as it descended. At the last possible heartbeat, not even fifty feet from the ground, the dragon's wings snapped open, and it snapped its flight pattern from vertical to horizontal, nearly touching the ground as it flew, or glided really, at super speed. With the slightest twitch of its wings, the dragon ascended some and flew over the forest. The dragon slowly gazed around then his eyes flicked up as something touched his neck and then the dragon seemed to nod and then flapped its wings and slowed down and then descended into a clearing near a stream.

IC :: "Ah... I see. Well, they sound like interesting dragons. Maybe one day I'll manage to meet them then.... Cause one day I'm gonna get older and have to learn to live on my own..." even with his disability. Jack figured her need to learn to live somehow, someway. Well, he kinda knew how to hunt. And if he stayed in one place, he'd have it memorized by feel. Though, it'd be difficult to figure any of that out anyway.

IC :: The black dragon who had been uncomfortably traveling across the river growled in slight frutration, "I thought you had said this was a shortcut, it seems much longer than the original, safer path." He unfolded his wings briefly as he exercised them out. "And tell me again why we aren't simply flying there? My sister is likely already there and wondering why am I late, and I'd rather not explain how I decided to listen to use and use the forest to get there."
"I aplogize, my prince, but my older brother said he always went this way when going there. Plus, your father told you and your older sister not to fly when going places. It is improper for someone of your rank to do so. In fact, his words state exactly, 'To fly anywhere shows disrespect to-'"
"Fine Rosalyn, I understand. Stop quoting my father," the dark prince hissed out.

(Thanks Creamy for understanding, I feel really bad for leaving. Ooh that's Jack's siblings! Well at least one of them. Hmm, eventually when Jack is reunited with them, I wonder if they will think Kar took him?) Kar laughed and shook his head. Not at his wishes to meet the royals of course, he might get that chance yet, but he laughed at his comment of living on his own like it was going to happen so soon. "Jack, at your age, you still have a very long way to go before you have to live on your own," he pointed out, amusement in his voice.

As the black dragon drank from the stream, a small figure slipped off the back of the dragon and dipped a canteen into the river as well and filled it up before lifting it up and taking a long drink from it before filling it again and then capping it. Gently, the figure raised a hand and rubbed the neck of the dragon beside it. The dragon pricked his ears and looked over at the figure and let out a soft sound, which was clearly happiness, before curling his head over and bumping its head against the chest of the smaller figure. The two interacted in this way for a few heartbeats before they heard dragons talking nearby and the dragon stepped in front of the figure and spread its wings, baring its teeth and steely gray eyes fixated on the approaching sounds.
“Who is there?!” The dragon demanded.

IC :: "I guess... but sfill. I'd have to think about skmething like that eventually. I mean, accodring to humans, I would have died in the wild because of my eyes. Im blind, since birth. So Ive never seen color or another sragon.... I've never seen anything. They said I would have been killed if they hadnt taken my egg and that I was lucky they were even letting me live." Jack said slumping suddenly. Eventually he'd have to live alone and he would need to know how to.

"Rosalyn, hush. You could afford to be more polite to strangers. Howeber, it is fair to give us you name as we gave you ours," he spoke carefully glancing at thr black dragon.

The black dragon didn’t answer, still growling and tail lashing. He was still keeping his side facing them, as if to guard something behind him. He was strong, yet lithe and agile, clearly built for flying fast and silently. His pitch-black features, only slightly shining in the light, only accented the fact that he was built for the swift and silent kill. Eventually a hand was laid on the dragon’s head and a figure walked around the dragon, coming into view, though it was clearly against the dragon’s wishes, but it didn’t attack the figure.
This figure was clearly human, though he did appear to be almost draconian, with black tattooing or some kind of ink covering his eyes and making his face look like that of the dragon beside him. He was covered in black scale-leather, with a cape flowing behind him that was accented with small triangles that traveled down the middle of the cape, clearly resembling the dragon’s own back spines. “Apologies Prince.” The human said, though in perfect dragon-speak. “His name is Ashgard, and I am Thunder. Again, sorry for scaring you and your guard, we were slightly shocked as well.” He said, not even slightly intimidated by being amongst so many dragons.
