'What the hell?' She thought to herself. 'I need to get my gathering started, I don't have time for this.'
She scowled and snorted, ignoring the seemingly crazy or annoying newcomer.
"So be it." She said and hopped away, back towards the middle of the field. Her captains followed. She wasn't acting herself, and it could be because she had gotten used to the security of having an army between herself and her enemies. 'How distgustingly weak,' she thought.
Her scales ruffled and twitched- she was annoyed- and the new presence besides the original two were gathering on her nerves. Coupled with her weak behaviour she had managed to turn her mood sour. She needed to brief her fellow Order members, perhaps recruit some more, and then she would have to get back to her human army. She would lead her troops into battle against a neighboring lord.
She came to a skidded stop and waited for the crowd, they should arrive soon. She gave a sideways glance to Rubus, who let out another shorter call- a reminder of the original call as well as one of haste. Standing and waiting in hybrid form, Riku felt more of herself returning to her.

((Siglos, this is another story, everything that happened before never happened. So you are not supposed to remember us. Shela may have the electric powers but she dosn't have the new jaw. But don't worry, I made the same mistake once before.))
Gatt snickered "I have never seen a dragon hybrid hop away like that before" Shela couln't help but giggle through her tears. Gatt's scarf dried the tears off as Shela snuggled him. "Well, it could have gone worse." Gatt said "but now I know that if a high ranking dragon like that knows who I am, then it might be hard for us not to be recognized." Shela added "becides, you are not some mean Dragon Hunter are you?" Gatt cringed, in a way he was, but he did'nt wan't Shela to know. "Of course I am not." Gatt lied.
((Siglos, I suggest you delete your preivous post alright, and try and do another one.))

(Thanks for the suggestion, but no all the same. I'm RPing that I met you in THIS world before. I can see where I was unclear about that though. And you have the Ink scyth, that started with me,)
Sigilos looked at the leaving Dragons.
*That one has problems.*
He yelled after them.
*And I'm not crazy, I'm insane! There is a diffrence!*

Gatt looked at Siglos "you are very mistaken my friend, you are confusing insane for mentaly challenged" Gatt jested. Shela giggled "Don't worry about them, they are part of the Order of the Virtous Revival I bet. Unfortunately they have heard of me and think I am a threat, even though I have retired from my old job."

Sigilos growled at the jest, knowing Gattin was baiting him all the same.
A look of confusion crossed his face.
*Order of what? It seems I have been gone too long from these lands.*
Sigilos listen as Gattin told him of the recent changes, a look of worry crossing his face. Finnaly Gattin finished, and Sigilos leaned on a stone near him.
*I have been away far too long. These factions are going to ruin my plans, no to mention my fun! I'll deal with them later, however. Now whats this about your old job? As long as I've known you, you've been a gypsy.*

"Well, even though it has just been recent, I must say that you have the worst memory I have ever seen. I was born from a family of thieves and gypsys. Then leaving them I became a young assasin, you know when I first met you during one of my searches. It just so happens that my speceality is dragon slaying that so on and so forth I became known as Gatt the Dragon Reeper. Untill I saved Shela, then I had to retire early, but good thing they pay good money for the heads of dragons or I would need to find a job." Gatt then sighed "That was three years ago when you left and the war had just sprung up. Problem is that these aliances are quite large, I have a price on my head on boath sides so I am trying to hide."

*Only three years? This war has taken a toll on you, friend. My memory is still better then yours, because I left five years ago. And what do you have to fear? As I recall, your one of the most powerful things on the continent! Did somene else with more power arrive in my absence?*

An icy breeze blew past and Riku prepared to start off with a small speech. She was never any good at them and it was not the nature of the Order to be like a human scholar or political group that consisted of nothing but talk. Her tail twitched as she side glanced the congregation to her right. A dragon hunter protecting a dragon- what madness! Regardless of the creature's choice of words used to describe his nature he drove almost an entire clan of dragons to extinction. Some say even the entire clan.
She felt rushed but she'd have her captains take over the rally and she would return to the Imperial City. She had wars to fight and human meat puppets to command. Once she exerted rule of her representing Imperial family and establish a human dynasty she would proceede in destroying it from the inside out. That was the plan anyway. It seemed as if many things would get in the way in the future.
"Dragonkin, supporters and curious onlookers, I greet you." She began. "I must make this quick and for that I apologize, but matters at current are pressing me to be in more than one place at one time. The Order for the Virtuous Revival is making progress in asserting an advantage over the humans. They rip each other apart without so much as the slightest hint of kinship. Soon there will be a time when they will be weakened by their own idiocy and we will be able to wipe their parasitic existances off of the planet. I'm sure you have heard her tellings of the future if humans should be allowed to continue on. We will be extinct and the humans' chaotic warfare will extinguish not just the other inhabitants of this planet, but the planet itself!"
She paused, time causing her to want to run. She took a deep breath and prepared to wrap it up to allow her captains to take control. They would try and motivate the supporters to enlist in the army and motivate the onlookers to be supporters.
"We need dragonkin to open their minds about the course of the future and we need dragonkin to understand the virtue in our cause. We need a force to be able to cure the disease of this planet when the opportune moment arises. It will not get done itself."
She took a gentle head bow of respect and dismissed herself, giving Rubus the opportunity to further convince the crowd and Tolbatt to register the new soldiers and supporters. She glanced back at the campfire and suddeny worried about the safety of her captains as well as the crowd. Overall she trusted her captains abilities and moved silently towards the forest's edge. Once she touched the shadows of the trees she shadowmelded to conceal her movement. She would move to the opposite side in this manner, which was slower than hybrid running but safer. She did not want either side knowing her double play in the scheme of things.

Sigilos looked up from eating anouther apple. He felt the shadows shift as something sliped by.
*Seems that gathering is almost over. Do you have any plans for right now, Gattin?*

Gatt sighed "well, I don't want' to get in over my head, but we can always follow that shadow dragon. If we can follow her we might get an idea what her plans might be because I have a feeling that she might lead us to the heart of all this war trouble." Gatt then got up and streched, his scarf grabbing the InkScyth and drawing somthing in Gatt's hand. It looked like a compas but it had five hands, each were ether black, blue, red, green, or yellow. "I think an elemental compas is in order. She was a shadow dragon so the black arrow should point to her. It should only work while she is in her dragon form or using her shadow magic." Gatt then started walking twards the forest. "come on, we don't have all day."

Shela and Sigilos looked at each other, then Sigilos shrugged and they followed Gattin. Sigilos walked on the other side of Gattin, watching the compass in interest.
*That's handy.*

She was halfway through the forest by now when she felt a pinprick followed by a small ripple of pain through her spine. It caused her to withdraw from shadows for a fraction of a second. Something wasn't feeling right to her and she needed to get back fast. She materialized into hybrid form and ran for it, reaching the edge rather quickly. She would have to use shadow magic to teleport through the shadows into her room, else she would risk too much.
She turned back to human form and muttered a small chant. She hadn't used this type of shadow magic since she was a hatchling. She closed her eyes and when she re-opened them, she was in a dark corner of her room. Her captains will return to their own chambers before they are missed. Her personal guards were brainless enough to not question where they would be. She walked to the door and opened it.
"We are done and you may return to your normal guard orders. Thank you." She said. They nodded in understanding and she closed the door.
'Rest before tomorrow's journey,' she thought to herself as she removed pieces of her armour and set them down on a table. They were magical pieces of equipment and the moment they touched the table they seemingly dissolved into air. It was like a special closet to keep her personal items without the fear of it ever being stolen. The only way for others to access it was for them to kill her. She crawled into the drab human bed (luxurious by human standards) and rolled with her back to the wall in attempts to fall asleep comfortably.

Once they were near the forest the black arrow of the compas wiggled a little before jolting twards the Impereal Army headquarters. "That's strange, why would a dragon be going to the headquarters of the Impereal Army" Gatt muttered to himself looking at the compas oddly. He then got on Shela's back and said "Shela, I know you don't like going there but we need to to to the Impereal Army Headquarters. I think this shadow dragon is getting too shady for my likings." Shela whimpered a little but then Gatt looked down at her and said "don't worry, how about I get you a large necklace afterwords." Shela cheered up as they launched into the air.
Then when they were close to the end of the forest they landed waiting for Sigilos.

Sigilos watched the two fly into the air.
*Impatient bloody...*
Mumbling under his breath, he spead up, still in human form but running faster then any human could. He reached the edge of the woods just after Shela landed. He slowed down, looking at the compass.
*This Shadow dragon is interesting. Hey, do think I could play some tricks around here? I need to play a good trick.*

"No, we cant' play any tricks, there's a war on remember" Gatt grummbled, "playing tricks, for a second there I felt more mature than you, maybe it's because I have some one to take care of."
Gatt then got off Shela and pulled out his InkScyth. "I cant show my face in the Impereal Army headquarters because of Shela, Shela cant come because she's a dragon. Good thing I have the best make up kit in all the land." Gatt's scarf grabbed the pen and started drawing on his own body, turning him into a completely diffrent person. Gatt then turned to Shela and started drawing symbols and markings on her, untill in a flash of light she turned into a 14 year old girl with white clothing and long blond hair. Shela tried to ballence but fell on the ground on all fours. "Ow" Shela said "this is quite difficult, how do you walk on two legs without falling down so mutch?" Gatt picked the human Shela up and said "with lots and lots of practice."
Gatt then turned around to Sigilos and said "we need you to turn into a dragon for us, and fly above the clouds so no one can see us. Then land into a forest that is nearest to the Impereal Army Headquarters. If you don't mind please."
