Glon sighed. "You're pretty much useless, aren't you?"

Dekka whistled. "Someone's got the hots for you," she raised a brow at Saphy. "Actually, I'll take the nugget. I need the money." She offered to take Simon into her arms. Her eyes held nothing. Sapherone was her target now. She fixated her gaze upon hers before giving a grin, as if she had no ill thoughts of killing the dragoness. Dekka would hand off the child and follow Sapherone once the coast was clear. Then she'd kill Sapherone and got to Indra. She grew giddy.
Indrallious gave her a wild look before morphing back. "Oh crap, oh crap, oh crap. I panicked! I didn't know what I should do!" Indrallious paced before staring at Yslaine. "You saw her, didn't you? You saw her, the girl with the snow white hair? Oh....She's going to be angry I left her and...and that I..." He gave a meek look at Yslaine. "What do I do? I can't run from her, I..." Indrallious swallowed hard again. He was clearly wigging out. Boots crunched on the floor as he walked in circles. "Sorry I dragged you into this. You know the funny thing was that I was just planning to fool around with you."
[ I imagine he's going to get slapped after saying that. ]

{I imagine you're right. XD}
"Thank you very much. I'll pay you upon my return." Sapherone replied, offering Dekka a sweet smile before handing Simon over. "I'll return for you, little one. I promise. If you hear my voice at all within the hour if I'm outside the city, you're not far enough away." she then spoke, before turning around and running off. She needed to find Indrallious. His scent would not be hard to find once she got outside the city, which made things all the easier for her.
~*~
Yslaine looked quite dismal upon learning Indrallious' intention. Of course, such sadness was quickly replaced with anger. Not only did he lie about taking her on the adventures she dreamed of, but he only brought her along to fool around! She could now see why her sisters always told her to be wary of men! Without so much as a seccond thought, she slapped him. "I'm sorry, but I'm not just some brainless tart to fool around with. You need to go to your wife, now!" Of course, Yslaine was assuming that the white-haired woman was his wife, seeing her reaction to his being near her. She also got the impression that the woman could not be his mother or just a friend, since she seemed too small and young to be a mother and too upset at Indra's behavior to be just a platonic friend. "If you want to fool around, you should've gone to her! Not only that, but if her looks don't decieve, she'll kill us both if you don't make it up to her - and fast! Furthermore, after all that anger went away, how do you think she'd feel about you going after another lady? If I were married, I would be heartbroken! Shame. On. You!"
~*~
"You're saying this to the woman who kept you from getting yourself killed several times already. Remember the guards? Or the angry drunken racists?" Cecille pointed out with a cocky grin.

Indrallious was embarrassed. He was slapped by many women but to be slapped by one that knew of his true self kind of hurt him on the inside. "I couldn't help it~ Women are my weakness. And I was so lonely~ I couldn't simply wait for Sapherone to wake up and I couldn't force to wake her up, she's too weak for that," Indrallious whined. He gave Yslaine a cowardly look. "Don't look at me like that. I know I'm a playboy! And a fool for taking the things I cherish most for granted but you just couln't believe the loneliness! To be such an all powerful dragon and have visible power at your hands and not be able to use it because your sitting in your lair for another hundred years is just practically murder! What could I do?!" Indrallious was flustered. It shown on his cheeks, a hazy pink that streaked his skin. He scratched his dark-haired head and shook his head. "No, I can't face her now. Not when she might be so angry. She might...I might lose her! I don't want that! Yslaine, Yslaine, oh please help me!"

"Then shouldn't you find some way to help her? Everyone is born weak, but they become stronger with age. Some more than others. Wouldn't it make sense to go out and find some magic or potion or something to help solve the problem?" Yslaine asked. She was certainly naive, to believe that anything could be solved with the right ammount of effort. Still, she was trying to help and that's what counted..right? "I'll help you. Still, if you just keep running and ignore her, you'll lose her for sure. At least try to talk things over with her, or, find some compromise between you both. If you need me to help 'prove' some sort of innocence, fine. You invited me to travel with you, right? I wanted an adventure, so since you didn't touch me yet or anything, you could say that I planned on paying you to protect me as I travelled around. If you've fooled around with other women, though, I can't vouch for you there."

"Oh, look, my brother." Serenity pointed at her brother, who was approaching the group and whistling. "Give the tiny thing to him and let's go spy on Sapherone, Dekka." Serenity was nearly bouncing with excitement.

"You've read my mind," Dekka said with a devilish grin. Her cloak melted again, dripping with the black, feathery ink until they grew larger into wings. She dropped Simon in Renavas' arms and kicked upwards, her strong legs powerful enough to shoot her into the sky only to stay in midair because of her flapping wings. Dekka then shot forward, in the direction of her dear beloved.
Indrallious sat on the floor. "You're not helping. I know I made in a mistake in...sleeping with other women but it wasn't like I did them out of love. I did it out of boredom! Oh, come on, you don't want to ruin that tale of the snow haired woman now do you? In the end, the she and the lord were very happy with each other until she fell asleep. Please, prove my innocence. Lie to her, please? Out of the goodness of your human heart, can you tell her that I didn't sleep with other women? You know, she might believe you if you told her."

Yslaine sighed deeply, giving up. "Fine, fine. I'll tell her you didn't sleep with any other women as far as I've seen. Just...just don't let her kill me if she thinks I'm lying." The thought of covering up for something like this sickened her, but what else could she do? She'd alienate the interests of someone either way. "Please just make sure to be...more cautious of the consequencess your actions might have in the future. Please?" You know, it's rather ironic that Yslaine of all people would say something like this.
~*~
Sapherone was out of the city before she knew it. Walking at a quick pace, she followed Indra's looming scent. She wasn't dumb enough to take human form, since she knew damn well that hunters would be on her in less than a minute if she did. It wasn't much better looking the part of the weak, defenceless maiden - but at least with this human form she could stand the summer heat longer.

Sophie growled, "I'm telling momma!" and then she started sniffing the air trying to track sapheron. Then she started walking towards where she though sapherone was. Sophie was mad.

Glon shrugged. "Whatever. I'm getting out." Glon stepped out of the pond, not giving Cecille enough time to cover her eyes to show her just how much he respected her, that is to say, not at all.

Serenity activated a flight spell, black wings unfurling from her back, and then she took off after Dekka, grinning. She rose and then dove to accelerate, overtaking Dekka. She landed thirty yards away from Sapherone silently, then started to follow her.

Dekka landed after Serenity very lightly, her wings curling back before simply melting again to a very normal cloak. She wanted to play. She licked her lips before tackling Sapherone. She rolled about on the floor before getting up again. Didn't matter if Serenity was here or not, Dekka would get rid of Sapherone here.
Indrallious gave her a thankful nod. Wait, what?! He turned around to look at little Sophie. He ran back and scooped her up. "You can't do that, little Sophie. Or else, momma will be so mad, she and daddy won't ever talk to each other again. And you don't want that, right?" He gave her a shifty, hopeful smile.

Yslaine said nothing, but she couldn't help but think that things would only get progressively worse from here. She began looking away from the two and biting her lip, tensing up as she remembered the horrible glare she got from Indrallious' wife.
~*~
Sapherone soon slowed her pace, the heat catching up with her once again. Panting softly, she began to drift towards the shade the trees provided - hoping to cool off a little as she continued on towards Indrallious' scent. She couldn't help but feel she was getting nowhere fast, even if she could smell his scent off in the distance. She wasn't fast enough to walk a hundred miles or so within moments. Especially not in human form. As she got further and further away from the capitol, the thought of taking her true form became more and more appealing. Then, of course, she'd been tackled. She let out a yelp of surprise, and for a short moment, fear. Seeing Dekka was the one who pounced upon her left Saphy with a feeling of utter shock and confusion. What was going on, and why the hell did she just do as she did?!

Serenity blasted Dekka with a hard push spell, which only required a moment's distraction as Serenity let out a screech to shake the heavens and flew into Dekka, tackling her into a tree and cracking it a fair amount. "Do not touch Sapherone!" She screamed, letting fire curl around her fist and striking Dekka in the stomach twice. "Don't you dare touch my Sapherone!" One hand formed massive black claws, which raised, ready to strike, and then she faltered for a moment.

Dekka grit her teeth and spat the blood that was in her mouth at Serenity. She took the time that Serenity faltered to catch up, seizing the energy of the shadows around her. Her eyes glowed crimson and Dekka kicked Serenity in the gut. "You don't own MY bounty," she growled. Her cloak was getting increasinly active. Her energy levels, as Serenity would feel them, were steadily rising. Dekka punched Serenity in the jaw and then jolted for Sapherone again, this time her hands went around the girl's neck to strangle her.
