JUMP IN: Dragons and Humans RP

Xandrite eventually stirred, bright eyes blinking tiredly before she noticed who was there. She raised a brow before simply staring. She wasn't particularly happy to see any of them, couldn't care less actually.

Raiden shook his head. "No, I'm ready to go. I'm not exactly itching to stay here or anything. I'm sure there's more to see."

((Hey no worries I understand! life has been hectic for me too ))

"Xandrite..." Shard said gently, the flame in his throat vanishing. "Why are you doing this? Your mother and I, and your brothers and sister all miss you..." he said gently.

~~~~~~~~~

Sizarla nodded and then got up to her paws, slithered up onto the bench where Alekar and Laugai were and she carefully sat up on her hind paws to get closer to their ears. "Raiden and I are ready to go when you two are." She said softly in dragon speak, making sure no one else could hear her.

Alekar nodded happily and slowly maneuvered to the open side of the bench and stood up, watching as Sizarla shrunk a bit more and then slithered up his arm and carefully settled herself on his shoulders. "Then let's get going. We've got a lot more to see!" He said.

Shard frowned a bit, knowing this couldn’t end well. “Xandrite, do you know what those powers of yours do? They kill creatures, humans, anything it touches. Then... they become zombies, destroying anything they can and spreading that power. Eventually they’ll become too much and they’ll surely turn on you...” He said worriedly. “Have you seen what those powers have done to the kingdom?”



Sizarla nodded happily and chirped in agreement to Laugai, watching as Alekar paid the tab for their items and they left the building. Once outside, she again fluttered off of Alekar’s shoulders and perched upon Raiden’s back, cooing softly to him.

Alekar watched as Sizarla once again went back to Raiden and he sighed amusedly. “Every time she does that it feels like I’m getting dumped.” He said jokingly.

Shard sighed softly, shaking his head. “That’s because they saved these people a long time ago, Xandrite! Their people wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for the first Dog that was created and came to life, protecting everyone in the villages. If it wasn’t for that, you probably wouldn’t be here. None of us would likely be here.” He said.


“Oh shut up Laugai.” He said playfully, not meaning anything by it. He was happy Sizarla had found a nice dragon to spend time with. Back home she’d rarely go out except when Alekar himself did.

Shard growled softly, clearly getting miffed at his daughter’s attitude. “Xandrite you’re going to regret this one day. Your mother and I just want to try and give you a good life.” He said, tail lashing as he prepared to leave.

Sizarla rolled his eyes playfully and she just lounged on Raiden’s back. She cooed happily as she relaxed and lightly nosed Raiden’s neck.

Shard snarled a little, black flames building in his mouth again. "Xandrite.... how could you have fallen so quickly. Have you forgotten your siblings? How they looked up to you? They're distraught over you leaving..." He said.

Sizarla let out a soft purr as Raiden called her pretty and her scales appeared to shimmer a bit, as if she was blushing like a human would. "The question should be how I got so lucky to meet such a handsome male like you." She replied lightheartedly, leaning forward and rubbing her nose against his snout.

Drake nodded slowly, gently rubbing Shard’s side for a moment. “I think we may need to make a retreat.”

Shard growled lowly. “Xandrite...” He said softly, turning his head away from her. This was awful. How could his own daughter despise them and the humans so much?



Sizarla looked to Laugai and rolled her eyes, sticking her tongue out for a moment. She then just laid back down on Raiden’s back and delicately nuzzled his neck. She quietly trilled to him, trying to make Raiden happy. “He likes making jokes about you, huh?” She said to him in dragon-speak.

Shard sighed and growled softly. He then turned tail and walked towards the exit, paws lighting on fire and burning away any of the creatures he walked through.


Sizarla nodded slowly. “He jokes with me, yes. Just never making jokes about me.” She replied with a light shrug. She purred lightly and slithered her tail around his side, liking being so close to her friend. “Thanks for carrying me Raiden.” She purred lightly to him. She was quickly growing to like Raiden, and wanted to be with him. “Say, Raiden... do you think maybe tonight we could go for a flight together or something? Spend some time together away from the humans?” She suggested, lightly licking his head and muzzle with her thin, slender tongue.

Shard just gave a low, angry grumble in response to his mste’s Rider’s comment. He just continued walking, crushing a few more of the beasts as they exited the cave.

Drake nodded in agreement, gently rubbing his dragon’s neck to reassure him. “This is going to be a dark time, for sure...” Drake said.



Sizarla grinned and wrapped his paws around Raiden’s neck as much as she could in a form of a hug and she trilled loudly with happiness. “Yay! Thanks Raiden!” She said to him in dragon-speak. She delicately licked his muzzle a few more times before settling back down again. “Let’s wait for now, until we know what the plan is.”

Hearing Sizarla’s sounds Alekar looked down at the two dragons and he smirked a bit, seeing Sizarla all happy and clinging to Raiden. He looked back up to the City and sighed happily. “This is a nice place, I must say.” He commented.

Drake nodded and looked back as Shard and Ma’ait left the cave behind. “Alright, let’s go home.” He said, to which Shard growled in agreement, spread his wings, and took off up into the air.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Alekar nodded slowly. “Yes, we’ve seen a couple of those places before while traveling with my family. Thankfully, Sizarla can easily hide on me while in her small form. Right girl?” He asked, looking to his dragon who was still practically swooning over Raiden.

Sizarla looked up at Alerkar and let out a happy chirp and nodded her head a couple times, then went back to lightly nuzzling Raiden’s neck and just enjoying being so close to the male dragon.

Shard landed beside his mate and watched as Drake got off his back. He looked to Ma’ait and gently licked her snout, trying to comfort her some.

Seeing their parents landing in the clearing, Pyre and Scaws immediately scurried over to them. Pyre immediately scrambled onto his father’s back while Scaws sniffed around his mother’s side, the two of them apparently looking for their big sister. Upon finding no sign of her, Pyre scrambled off his father and raced around to be in front of his parents. “Where’s Xandy?” He asked in confusion.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Alekar nodded a bit in understanding. “I can see why. It would certainly be a surprise to people to see a little kid walking around with a dragon bigger than him.” He said with a chuckle. “But it all worked out, eh? I mean, you’re still here today!”

Scaws, upon hearing the news, started to sniffle a little bit. He missed his big sister. “Doesn’t she love us any more?” He said, cuddling into his mother for comfort.

Pyre huffed softly and just trotted over to his brother and laid beside him, seemingly losing his normal excitement and happiness.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Alekar nodded slowly. “Be glad you two have such a good friendship and camaraderie. Not many people can say that in this day and age.” He said.

Sizarla huffed and sat up on Raiden’s back. “Alekar we’ve been through a lot together too!” She chirped.

Scaws just continued to sniffle for a few more moments as his mother nuzzled him and he slowly fell asleep, snuggling into his mother just like when he was a young whelp.

Pyre watched as Scaws fell asleep and he sighed softly, also feeling much the same way as his brother. He moved over to his dad and curled up beside him while Shard began licking his scales to calm him down.

~~~~~~

Sizarla nodded in agreement and chirped happily. “See? He gets it.” She said happily. She watched as Alekar walked a bit closer to her and she happily leaned up and rubbed her against against his gently hand.

Alekar laughed happily and nodded a couple times while rubbing Sizarla’s head. “Yes yes we have been through a lot together. Sizarla’s been there for me in some of my toughest times. She’s my closest friend.”

Shard leaned his big head over and gently licked Ma’ait’s face a few times. “Right.” He said in agreement. “No matter what she is still our daughter. And we won’t give up on her.” He murmured gently.

Pyre was now asleep as well, soon beginning to snore softly.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Alekar nodded. “Exactly. People can be fickle and flakey. But from what I’ve experienced dragons are nearly always loyal and dependable.” He said, giving a warm smile to Sizarla who just coped happily and her slender tail waved a little bit.
