Odd Encounters

[Ricia]

Rhea held the baby close to her, Was he sick? Rhea had taken care of Roen when he was sick... but frankly a full grown dragon was different than a baby... maybe they should stop a few hours to check on him. Rhea feeling anxious reaching out to both Roen and Zek over Soki.


"You think hes sick?" Roen asked walking over when Rhea called him, ignoring Sahra.

 

[InsaneTruth]

Aria however tried to swat the pixie but she was too fast.


Soki was humming softly as he fell asleep he was oblivious to the concern of the others around him.


Skysond stood on her hind legs trying to be tall "he might just be full... I get real sleepy if i'm full,"

 

[Ricia]

"No he ate way too less to be full.... " Rhea said quietly. "We'll stop every few hours to have a look at him... Make sure he isn't getting worse... might delay getting back as quickly... but I am worried." She said, quietly putting Soki into his bag.

 

[InsaneTruth]

Soki curled up in the bag and wrapped his tail around himself like a cat.


Sky song climbed onto the saddle and looked at Soki in his bag.

 

[Ricia]

Rhea sighed and clasped shut the bag and got top Roen and into the saddle. She wrapped the straps around her and SkySong and then took off soon. Roen intended to fly fast and try and get back as soon a possible, though he was sure Aria was not as eager as him to get back to mage infested territory.

 

[InsaneTruth]

Aria huffed and took off with Roen she was going to fly slightly behind him for the trip back.


Skysong looked at Rhea "are you really worried about Soki? wouldn't he tell you if he was under the weather?"

 

[Ricia]

"He might not even know he is feel bad." Rhea said quietly to SkySong. "sometimes we just fell tried but we are actually sick.."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"Oh... Zek can look him over when we get home," Skysong said "he's a good healer,"

 

[Ricia]

"Yeah, and I can have a better look at him myself." Rhea said in return.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"You do alot of healing?" Sky asked a bit calmer now that they were on their way home. Zek had made Shania stay knowing Rhea and the dragons would arrive at the palace later that day.

 

[Ricia]

"Sometimes... more so with adult dragons. Babies are new to me, but I am sure I will get plenty of practice now... Zek probably knows more about babies then I do... while I know more about adults than him." She said, giving Sky a reassuring smile.

 

[InsaneTruth]

Skysong nodded and looked at the ground speeding below hem. "He can help if Soki is sick,"

 

[Ricia]

"Yeah he can.." Rhea said back quietly. Rhea made sure to stop after a few hours to check on Soki, taking him out of the bag gently.

 

[InsaneTruth]

he nosed her sleepily and looked around. "mama?" he asked not sure why they were stopping so soon.

 

[Ricia]

"Do you feel ok Soki?" Rhea asked the baby dragon quietly.

 

[InsaneTruth]

He just nuzzled her and yawned as his answer.


Skysong watched.

 

[Ricia]

Rhea smiled and bit and put him back in the bag before getting back on top of Roen, "Ok... we'll probably stop again to make sure hes ok." She told Sky as roen took off again.

 

[InsaneTruth]

Aria had not landed but instead just circled overhead she didn't want to go back but she didn't want to stop either.


Skysong settled on Roen's back and nuzzled the older dragons neck in thanks for taking her home and letting her ride.

 

[Ricia]

After a few long hours, mid afternoon approaching and a couple few minute stops to check on Soki, the dragons eventually flew over the barrier to the city. Roen being a show off let out a large Roar to announce his presence, but she had a feel Zek knew they were there because of their connection and Shania because of the feather she always carried.

 

[InsaneTruth]

Zek was waiting for them at the gate he waved at them as they descended.

 

[Ricia]

When they were low enough to the ground she was sure Sky could glide to Zek she unbuckled the baby dragon so that she could fly down to Zek. But the bigger dragons continued to fly to the clearing, landing heavily.

 

[InsaneTruth]

Skysong dove into Zek making the mage hit the ground though he chuckled softly. Shania went to the clearing to see them all.

 

[Ricia]

When Roen landed Rhea unbuckled herself and ran up to Shania, "Are you ok?" She asked the girl, almost circling her to make sure she wasn't hurt.

 

[InsaneTruth]

Shania laughed "other then a few bruises and some paper cuts I'm fine," she told Rhea.

 

[Ricia]

Rhea blinked, "What were you doing with paper?" She asked, not sure if it was a joke, Rhea could be very serious at times. "Oh Shania... I think somthing is wrong with Soki... hes been sleeping all day... and hes not ate all his food. I am a bit worried... though he is still a baby.."
