JUMP IN: Dragons and Humans RP

Mysha nodded and got up, looking over as Ma'ait stirred, the dragoness twitching as Shard woke her. Ma'ait warbled tiredly, leaning over to lick his cheek. Mysha smiled before looking between the other men. "Ah, I don't think I ever introduced you two. Drake, this is Rhayne. Uncle, this is Drake." The larger of the three held out his hand for him to shake while Mysha walked over to her automatons and the dragons. "Up you all get. We've got quite a day ahead of us."

Rhayne smiled slightly. "Haven't had any riders last long here. You two are special. Just make sure you don't die today, hm?" He patted Drake's shoulder before telling the two "I will be taking some of my soldiers to accompany you, so you won't arrive completely on your own." Having numbers made more of a statement, though it seemed the group of six would be statement enough. Mysha nodded her thanks as Rhayne turned to quickly leave. Ma'ait didn't look too happy either, but allowed Mysha to get on. The woman looked over at Beta, saying "Take a horse, and travel with Rhayne's group. Zeta will ride with me." Beta simply nodded once before turning and doing as told. Hm. That was a first.

Mysha smiled at Drake before allowing Ma'ait to carry her outside. And then there was the rooster again, bothering Shard on his way out until the larger male was out of the barn. Ma'ait shook with laughter before spreading her wings, glancing back at Shard with amusement before taking flight.

Mysha looked back at Drake and Shard, smiling slightly before looking ahead again. It wasn't too long before you heard thunder below, except it was produced by numerous hooves. Looking down, she smirked to see fifty or so horses following them, and that wasn't even denting the village population. Happy that they had more support, she had more confidence as they headed to their new destination. Word would spread again, because they had a long, long, long stretch of villages to pass, though she wanted them to know.

Mysha hummed in acknowledgement. "A few hours at this pace, less time if the dragons went faster, but I don't want to risk them stopping for rest, cause we would likely be attacked. We're not leaders yet." She laughed the last part before looking ahead. Frowning slightly, she sighed "What are we getting ourselves into?" A part of her was excited for the challenge and conflict though, even more so if everything worked out.

Mysha smiled softly. "And I'll have you." She looked over mischeviously before looking ahead again, trying to lighten the mood. Like Drake, she too was in pain, probably more than him due to each bone being etched in with permanent markings of the brand now. She was more focused on her... friend though. What if he left after this was all finished? Or found someone else if he decided to stay? Shaking her head a little, she tried to focus on the task at hand.

Even with her dark skin, a blush was evident on Mysha's face as she shivered a little. She was drawn from her thoughts when Ma'ait seemed to snicker. What could they be talking about now? Not that she would ever find out. Looking ahead again, she just focused on the trip.

Ma'ait had been snickering at Shard's question. "No idea. Maybe they'll "celebrate" or something if this all goes well." The dragoness looked over at Shard. "Maybe we could too~"

(Lmao Shard xD)


Mysha looked over at Drake, managing a coy smile. "... more like the possibility of what you'll do." They had to get through the day first though. The thought made her smile a little more before looking at Shard. Did he have somewhere to go?

Ma'ait chirped softly in amusement as she watched Shard. She was more excited now too, but no need to burn the extra energy flying faster. She would need to save it for tonight it seemed, unable to stop smiling.

Mysha laughed a little at the thought of what their dragons were likely talking about. "Well, the sooner we get there, the sooner we can all stop teasing each other, hm?"

Ma'ait blinked before purring happily. "Love you too." She knew she was going to be happy with Shard, not wanting to be without him.

Eventually, the group was pulling up toward the main city. It definitely looked in better shape and bigger than the other villages, which were tiny compared to it. It wasn't refined like official kingdoms or whatever, but that was simply because her people didn't see sense is expending energy and money for huge castles and shiny expensive decor. Looking for a place to land, she tried her best to remain composed as people watched. Rhayne and his group also pulled up, ignoring as they were sneered and growled at by the others around them.

Mysha gripped her spear as Rhayne led his horse in front of them, Beta beside him. She let her uncle lead them to where she knew the chief to be, looking ahead as she felt what seemed to be countless eyes on them. Soon, they were led to where the leader was, watching him come out of a large building, which was of course guarded by stone dogs. He was dressed in armor similar to the others, except he wore a cape of dragonskin, his helmet having the horns and bones of a small, young dragon it. As his advisers stood with him, Rhayne stepped up to meet them. "Here with me, I present the Bone Bearer, Mysha, with her shifter dragon, two mechanical marvels she brought to life, and her ferocious Black Fire Beasts, one of which has been chosen by the Dogs." More sneers. But there were also people cheering too. Encouraging the group. The chief snorted behind his mask. "All I see are two animals I can kill, two piles of worthless metal, a traitor and her traitor friend."

(If u want, u can have that new power from the brand show up too, whatever it is. Up to you what and when he uses x3)

The chief snorted, and waved a hand. Almost immediately did soldiers from around them start moving. Complete chaos broke out, Rhayne's soldiers moving to fight. The black fur on their armor made it easier to tell them from the enemy. Mysha hopped off of Ma'ait as enemies moved toward her dragon. They were surely going to die with just fifty soldiers on their side, but as she looked around, digging her spear into the first man, she noticed that people from the large "city" were turning too, almost as if they had been waiting for the group. A distinguishing factor was that they all had some sort of nose-ring in the nasal passages of their masks. Remembering as such so she wouldn't kill them, she watched as the chief began to change. She knew what he was turning into, having seen it countless times in battle. The fur and bones of his armor elongating with his limbs, combining as antlers erupted from his skull, face stretching out and feet merging into hooves. Some of his people hooted and cheered as the wendigo straightened up, dark wispy energy rolling lightly off of his body, a sword of bones appearing in his hand.

The wendigo snorted, dust flying out of his nostrils as he stepped forward, swinging his large sword and clashing with Drake. As they fought, Mysha worked on keeping others away from Drake. Beta and Rhayne helped too, and Ma'ait had taken up a form of a crystalline material, hauling her jagged form around to try and impale others.

Drake growled as his sword clashed with the wendigo’s and he whirled around and struck the ground as he swung his sword. But once he’d made a full circle of strikes around the wendigo’s body he snapped his fingers and the ring glowed purple. “Black flame geyser.” He said, and black flames shot up from around the ring and within it, burning hotter than most furnaces and shooting up at speeds as fast as a geyser.

Mysha watched as the wendigo hissed, teeth bared as he began to pace. Dead flesh felt very little, his hooves stomping in the dirt. Tilting his head up, he wailed angrily, and more soldiers swarmed toward Drake. Looking around, Mysha glared at her former leader before calling to Drake. "Let those flames down a bit! I need to get in there!" At her voice, the wendigo snarled but she didn't let her nervousness show.
