(Look under ALL THE FURNITURE!)
"Okay." Sammus said, "I'll explain. Birds practice take off, and even short flights, by jumping from branch to branch in their tree. It builds coordination, endurance, muscle and knowledge. You could practice the same way, but jumping from rock to rock."
Claus followed, easily catching up to the smaller dragon. This is gonna be fun!

"Alright, the first thing to do is find some rocks..." Sammus looked around, "If this is a temperate forest...which it seems to be based on the trees, we've gotta be close to one of the poles, and if that's true, glaciers could move boulders, rocks and even hills...we should be able to find somewhere good easily."
The larger dragon was enjoying the easy and powerful movement. "This place is nice." He commented after a while. "The trees feel like home..."

(She means viridi is on your side, Pit)
"Let's find you some boulders, come on!" Sammus exclaimed, heading downhill.
Claus slowed down, looking with concern at his friend. "Bad memory?" He asked softly, "You don't have to talk about it if you don't want to."

(Well, he is from Ancient Greece)
Near the bottom of the dip in the earth, Sammus stood nodding approvingly. A swath of smooth boulders were stacked sporadically across the bottom of the area. "You can use these!"
Claus nodded slowly. "Maybe I could help you make your home better again? Or...we could find more people and they'd help you too."

"Jump." Instructed Sammus. "At this point, wings are mostly used for balance, you need to keep them controlled to keep your balance, so it's just jumping at first."
Claus slowed his pace, "We can stop if you want to, you can catch your breath..." He spoke quietly.

(Hi! Your sig is super cute!)
"Good, you're doing important work for flight." Sammus nodded approvingly, "Keep going!"
Claus moved his snake-like tail, placing it gently on his friend's shoulder.
(Poor honey muffin)

(What game is that? I really want to check it out)
"You've got it, keep going! Gain wing control." Coached Sammus, looking proudly at her companion.
Claus said nothing. He sat silently, moving his tail along his friend's back gently.
(You blind fools!)

Sammus watched for a while. "Okay," She raised an arm and waved it. "Come down here, I wanna see how you do with flapping from here to..." She pointed to a nearby, steep boulder. "Let's say there. But, take a breather if you need to."
Ice prickled along Claus' spine. "What did you say his name was? And...what did you say your name is?"

Sammus watched, a smile forcing its way across her normally expressionless face.
Claus squinted, seeming suddenly suspicious. "That's my little brother's name...also a twin...I'm called Claus...of...Tazmilly..." He said slowly.

"Good job!" Called Sammus, she pointed again, "Try again, go to the far boulder! Flap and glide!"
Claus slowly nodded, eyes wide with astonishment. "Hinawa is our mother and our father is..." He seemed almost unable to believe this, he was probing, as if he had to make sure. The larger dragon quivered as his muscles jumped with excitement.

Sammus nodded approvingly, watching her companion's progress. He's learning so fast, you'd think he'd been born with wings!
"LUUUCAS!" Claus bellowed, leaping up, and tackling his brother in a huge draconian hug. His forelegs were firmly wrapped around his little brother. The dragon's eyes were squeezed shut, but tears leaked out in spite of this.

(Dramatic irony!)
"Excellent job!" Sammus gave a little round of applause. "There's still something. Fly down to me, land on this lower surface."
Claus had to restrain himself slightly, so as to be careful not to crush his brother. That being said, he clearly had no intention of letting go anytime soon, his steely claws were clamped firmly together, creating a ring of his forelegs around his brother.

Samus laughed a little, "Pfft, landing on a lower surface is the hardest thing for most people, but it seems to be the easiest for you...hehe...I wasn't expecting that!" The bounty hunter took a steadying breath. "Phew! You've got it down, I think! Well done!"
Claus held still, holding onto the moment. Everything that had ever gone wrong could be fixed, or so it seemed to him in this moment of fraternal bonding. They were together, against everything, they were together. Their home could be rebuilt, their woods would grow wild again, and perhaps, Claus wouldn't be the only miracle case...Hinawa, Scamp...everyone they had lost through the harsh rule...perhaps, no, certainly, they too would be restored.
(I'm going to go to bed, if that's alright with you, Draco)
