Teceous rose from his pinning position and held out a hand to the dragon fighter, to help him up. His other hand went to his forehead as he wiped free some beads of sweat, the heat finally easing it's way to Teceous.
He spotted the betting exchanges out of the corner of his eye and that caused him to think about Thats and Alfeage... Alfeage. A mental sigh echoed in the baclk dragon officers mind before he forced himself back to reality.

In his search for somewhere to nap (even though he'd gotten almost a full night's sleep last night, he still tended to nap in the day, whenever he could), Gil had wandered outside again, and had stopped outside the ring where Teceous was beating up on the Dragon Fighters, quitely observing what, loosely, could be called training. The sun was warm on his back, and Fie had curled around his shoulders and fallen asleep, soft, whoosing breath against his throat and collarbone. In the sunlight, Gil's many scars stood out plainly against his darker skin, but he couldn't care less. They were just scars, what really bothered him were the memories of how he'd gotten them. Scars can't hurt you after all, only the memories.

Armando accepted the hand gratefully, and he stood, rubbing the small of his back and shoulder as he edged his way from the ring. It was a little sore, but no mind. This sparring was much more fun than an actual fight, even if it was against the Captain.
"The closet, I think," Paz said after brief consideration. "The one in that passage off the main hall is wide enough, isn't it?"
The gardens might be more comfortable, but they still made him uneasy to wander alone in them. Worse when Lima was with him. While the shield was easily strong enough to keep out any demons, the memories of being hunted through them by an enemy far more powerful and numerous than any of them around at the time was unsettling. Shadows of broken trees reminded him of unseen danger.

"Alright." Lima said with a smile, beginning to lead the way before she stopped and looked up at him. She knew him well, her dragon fighter, and now she reached out and placed a handon his cheek. Tilting her head a bit she looked up into his eyes. The siege at the castle two years ago had put eternal marks on all of them... ~*~ "And that's all." Orange-brown eyes stared over at the other person in the room who was, the brown haired dragon guessed, gazing down at the desk. Every life lost on the battle field was one life too much for the golden haired man, Ruwalk knew. "Lykouleon..." He said slowly, the other looking up. The Yellow Dragon Officer knew that the Dragon Emperor was looking at him, even though the cloak's hood concealed his face. The man didn't say anything but smiled instead."I know Ruwalk... I know." He sighed out the last. "But this...""It's not your fault, you know that. We did what we had to do, anyone would understand that.""But it's unforgiveable." The ruler of Dusis sharply turned his head to the side, averting his gaze from the other dragon. Lykouleon could hear his officer sigh heavily, but it wasn't because of the hackneyed discussion... it was because they both knew that the green eyed man was right. But however wrong it was they couldn't stop doing it now... they would be destroyed.
"Just hang in there, Lykouleon... we'll win this." The Dragon Emperor turned his head forward again, looking over the desk at the other. Even though the cloak blocked anyone from seeing him, Lykouleon's view was perfectly clear as he gave a nod and a tired smile.

"Do I have to?" A dragon fighter from within the house sounded, almost whining.
"Yes! Now put your book down and go out there, we want to see a good fight and a few of us have put bets on you!" Another dragon fighter exclaimed as he pushed out a tall, balck haired dragon from the house.
"A good fight? Let me guess..." He turned his jade green hues up, spying a nearly topless, and semi-sweaty Black Dragon Officer before him. "How did I know?"
"Come on Ryo, Do it!" Another dragon fighter egged on from within the house.
"Fine..." This Ryo said as he entered the ring, his eyes falling on Teceous. "Swords." The half youkai said calmly before that melted away and he smirked at the black dragon officer. Really.. All the other dragon fighters had to say was Teceous was in the ring and Ryokou would have been more then willing to put his book down.
"It's your defeat, Ryokou, you know that." Teceous returned the smirk as he leaned over to the edge of the ring and grabbed his sword.
"Don't make dry threats... Haven't I told you that before?" A laugh slipped from the dragon fighters lips as he held out his left hand, a blade splitting the skin and removing it self from it's sheath... Ryokou's arm.

Ruwalk walked out of Lykouleon's office, closing the door behind him and let out a light sigh. Turning to the right, he began walking down the hall. Now then, what was next on today's agenda...?

"Luwalk-sama~!" A honey like tone called from a side hallway and suddenly a young ravenette maid was clung to to his arm, shining a bright smile up at him. "When did you get home? I'm glad that you made it back safetly." Her smile remained. "Cernozura just let me off duty, and I heard a very good fight was just about to start by a passing dragon fighter. Want to go watch it with me?" Her jaded violet hues shining brightly up at him.

Giku! The Yellow Dragon Officer almost jumped when he heard his named called. Slowly turning around, sweatdropping, he smiled at the maid. "Hi, Sen..." He said, trying to hold his face. "I just got back." //Kinda.// "I've been reporting to Lykouleon and Teceous." He smiled, still sweatdropping, as he listened to the younger girl.
"Well... you girls are always working so hard, are you sure you would like to spend your freetime with me watching the fighters train?" Please let her say no, please let her say no...

Sen just stared at him for a moment, debating if he was serious or not. He was one of the hotest dragons in the castle, other then maybe Teceous, who was way out of her lover spectrum and she was one of the ones that the fighter always talked about around the fighter house and at parties.
"But of course!" She chirped. "I love watching the dragon fighter's fight... and besides... It's supposed to be a really good one... please?" She asked in her most innocent tone, this girlish puppydog gaze in her eyes. "Just for a little bit?" She pleaded.

"Well..." How was he going to get out of this? He didn't exactly have another thing he had to hurry to... Damn it. He wasn't the kind of guy to just hurt somebody's feelings. "Since you insist..." He said with a nod.
... Damn, he needed to find someone for this girl... and soon. He wasn't completely sure if the "rule" concerning the dragon fighters having to have at least one child, preferably two, before dying (for the sake of the race) applied to him too, but... not to be mean but he wasn't interested in her!
((XD;; Poor Ruwalk...))

"Thank you." Sen said with a soft smile following. Her pale hand fell down to his and she hooked them, leading him in the quickest direction to the Dragon Fighter's ring.
The sword wrapped it bloody vines around his hand and he quickly took his stance across from Teceous. The two began move in a circle, as most intense fighters do before Ryokou moved to attack, therefore starting the spar. He started with a simple forward thrust.
Teceous caught the blade with the hilt of his sword, since it was in that backward poisition and threw it to the side, getting Ryokou off balance and then sent a rough right kick to Ryokou's legs, knocking him to the ground.
The dark-haired dragon fighter coughed and gripped his sword harder, swinging the sword towards Teceous's feet to knock the Black Dragon Officer off his feet with a sword swipe.
Leaping over the fighter's swipe, Teceous stepped back, slipping into a familiar stance and allowed time for Ryokou to stand back up.

Ruwalk let out a mental sigh, he was stuck. Well, for a while at least. How long could a training match be anyway? The brown haired man followed the girl out of the castle and over towards the fighters' guild. From the sound coming from it he suspected the fight she wanted to see had already started. Coming (being half dragged) around the corner they came into view of the ring.
Ruwalk smiled down at Sen. "It seems like it has already started but we probably haven't missed much."

Ryokou kept his pale jade hues on the dragon officer as he rose, then he blinked as he spied the ravenette of his dreams bounce out of the dragon castle, Luwalk attached to her hand. He blushed at the sight of Sen, but then almost caught himself growling at the fact that the Yellow Dragon Officer was acted so friendly with her. WAS THAT A SMILE?! The grip he had on his sword tightened.
Sen returned the smile and pulled him a little closer before releasing his hand and taking a seat on the soft grass to watch the fight. "Oh! It's that one Dragon fighter... What's his name... Ryokou! I heard he was really good!" She informed Luwalk, looking up at him. "Almost Teceous-sama's equal!"
The sun was dangling higher in the sky and Teceous was getting hotter.(drool) He was in the mid process of removing his muscle top when he turned to see what Ryokou was getting flustered about. Oh... Sen? He smirked inwardly when his dark hues travelled over and spotted Luwalk, to whom he offered a quick wave after Teceous tossed his shirt to the ground with his uniform top.
The half youkai didn't bother waiting until Teceous had fully regained his stance when he attacked with an upward strike.
But the Head of Security wasn't going to get caught off guard so easily and brought his sword down to clash with Ryokou's.
They both pulled back and a few more, strikes and clashes were sent before their blades crossed and their faces were inches from each others, a good distance for quite talker, or ridicule.
"A fire has been added to your attacks, Ryokou..." The black dragon officer pointed out. "What now is driving your fight?" He questioned, a smirk on his lips.
Ryokou just gave him a snarl. "Shuddup, that's none of your business!" The dark haired dragon snapped back.
"Oh... I think I know... It's Sen... Isn't it?" Teceous pushed.
"I SAID SHUTUP!" He growled as he slammed on the swords, trying to knock Teceous off balance but when it failed, he ducked down and tried with a sweep kick.
Teceous laughed and easily blocked and dodged the attacks, jumping back a little back.

Ruwalk sweatdropped lightly at the cheerful maid before joining her on the ground. "Being almost Teceous's equal in swordsmanship is quite a feat." Ruwalk said with a nod and a light smile, looking at the other officer as he discarded the last piece of clothing of his upper torso. Returning Teceous's greeting with a raised hand.
Ruwalk let out a light, amused snort and smiled as the fight suddenly got fiercer. Interesting... "What do you think of Ryokou?" He asked casually.

The ravenette found herself drug into the small fight between Teceous and Ryokou, before she heard Luwalk's question. "What.. do I think of Ryokou?" She curiously repeated. I wish I could tell you what I thought about you! She mentally sighed.
"I think he's pretty cool, but then again, I've never personally met him, I've just heard alot about him from the other fighters..."
Ryokou blinked as he noticed Sen's attention having been drawn away from their fight to talk to Luwalk. Maybe he wasn't entertaining her enough. He growled inwardly and quickly snapped into a unique pose.
The Officer made a glance back to notice that Luwalk and Sen were talking, then as he looked back to Ryokou, he noticed him take that stance. "I see... Getting serious now, are we?" Teceous himself took a defensive stance.
