Landing near the berry patch, Silia fazed to human to pick the tiny fruits and put them in the basket she had brought along. It didn't take long before the basket was full and she was ready to go back.
Fazing back and settling the basket securely, Silia took wing and flew back up the mountain. Nearing the cave entrance, she called in to Dawna. "I'm back. Got a pretty good harvest, they look really good."
At that point, she flew in and noticed that Hara was back. "Welcome back, Hara. You're just in time for a little..." Then she noticed that Hara wasn't the only other dragon in the cave.
Silia was dumb struck for a moment, not believing her eyes. She felt a swelling in her chest that made it hard for her to breath. When she could finally get her lungs to work, all she could do was gasp out a single word. "A...Achi?"
At first, Achiu had been too preoccupied by the girl to really pay attention to what was behind her. He had at first assumed that it was simply rock. But when Dawna mentioned that Silia had left her there to 'take care of the children', his eyes went huge and he took a closer look at the 'rock'. It only took a moment to realize that they were actually a pair of eggs.
While he was still trying to figure out what was going on, he heard another dragon coming, and quickly recognized her voice. When he saw the eggs, he was starting to wonder if, by chance, his mate had left after he was gone, and some other dragon had taken over the cave. But seeing her now, there was no denying it was her.
He was unbelievably happy to see her, but was still rather confused by the eggs. Unsure what to do, he decided to simply reply to her single question. "Yes, Silia. I'm back."

(To save myself a bit of typing-pink+blue=purple, right?)
Dawna smiled a bit when she heard Silia come home. But it only took a moment for her to realize that maybe this wasn't the best time to be around. Things sounded a little....awkward.
She decided it might be best if she and Hara got out of there, so she tried to get up, momentarily forgetting just how injured she was. She regretted it rather quickly.
Hara too felt the tension in the cave and noticed Dawna trying to stand. Carefully slipping around the couple, Hara knelt down next to Dawna and whispered in her ear. "Why don't you and I take off for a little while? We can check back in later."
Dawna nodded and grabbed hold of Hara, using her to pull herself up. "Sounds like a good idea to me."
After Hara helped Dawna to climb on, she turned to Silia and Achiu and cleared her throat. "Um, Dawna and I are just going to go out for a while. You two have fun. We'll be back later." With a quick smile, she took off out of the cave. "Well, since neither of us got breakfast, how about we go find something to eat?"
Dawna did her best to hold on. It was slightly difficult with her broken leg, but she managed. "Sounds good. I'm starving. What do you have in mind?"
Hara thought. "Hmmm, shall we see if this river has any fish?"
"As long as you cook it first. I never was much for sushi." She made a nasty face.
Hara chuckled. "I think that can be arranged."
