Zen watched as the dragon began to roast, it crackled like a campfire and eventually flayed down to the bone, that's when the fire began to die.

Xallen sat near the dragon and held up his hands to the warm fire. It was unfortunate that he didn't have any marshmallows to roast at the moment...though he didn't really have a stick to use either. Oh well. He thought he saw something like a marble in the ashes, but from what he could tell it was just an ordinary marble. He guessed the dragon liked killing innocent children.

His ears perked up as he heard the sounds of destruction from the Northwest. It sounded like a bombing or something. What the hell was going on? Was Gaia at war with the Zurgs now? Xallen's eyes flickered again; it'd be necessary to be cautious from this point on. He motioned for Zen to follow and ran off toward Old Barton.

"I'm right behind you!" Zen bolted off closely behind Xallen.

arrow From Old Barton
That wasn't the sort of thing you saw every day.
No, seriously. That was kinda odd. A dragon, just laying around.
Dead, too.
Kalis slowed down to observe the spectacle, pulling around the thing. He considered trying to pull some teeth, but... he didn't really know what they'd do, if anything, or how he could use them. They'd probably just set the bag he put them in on fire or something, like any magic thingy.
Instead, he just drove right up to the water of the fountain in Barton Square, stretching, with a long yawn. And then?
He walked his bike right against the edge of the fountain, pulled out a hankerchief, and started splashing the thing and scrubbing it down.
He was clean, and he wanted his bike to be too.
Because that just wasn't a nice smell.

"Stop it! That tickles!" A high, squeaky yet bubbly voice erupted from the fountain.
"How would you like it if I dipped my hands in you, and started rubbing your insides over everything? Huh? Huh?"

exclaim Kalis jumped, dropping the most recent handful of water on the ground and looking at the fountain. He didn't see... Oh.It was another one of those. "Err, pardon?" So... this thing... probably had a marble somewhere in it, that was causing all the funkiness? Maybe not, it might just talk, but he was fairly certain it hadn't been cheering him during the Heaven or Hell rounds. So, he had to figure out where the marble was, and how to yank it out before the thing went from snappy to dangerous. Or something. "I'm sorry, I'm trying to get my bike clean, see... it smells like s**t." Straight. Forward. Now, if I were a talking fountain, where would... hell, how should I know. Talking fountain!

"You think I don't smell that?"
A bit of the water rose up from the fountain, turning into a small, childlike shape. A chubby young girl, features from the waist down undefined, just a bit of water connecting her to the rest.
There was a marble inside of her stomach.
"And I don't appreciate you leaning it up alongside of my home, either! What do you think this is, a bike wash? Really, where did you learn your manners from, bumpkin!"

"Erm, sorry." he blinked. "Guess I should have asked first."
So, he was sort of confused he had to do something. It was really only just water... so he shouldn't feel bad... probably? But he needed to get the marble, and he didn't want to risk pushing this thing too, far and...
Oh, screw it.
"-canIhavethispleasethankyou?" he shot out as he plunged a flattened hand into the water like a knifeblade, aiming to go in quick straight to the marble and snatch it out.

"Ah!"
The water shot away from him, jiggling to the left side and beginning to retreat into the fountain.
"Stop it! Don't touch me! You're filthy! Don't touch!"
His hand would go into her right side, and the marble would be a little the side of his hand and falling swiftly towards the bottom of the fountain.

"Hey!" He sighed, sticking his hand into his pockets and lifting one foot up high. Unforunately, things looked like they'd have to get mildly rough. Sorta. It was a shame he wasn't better at creative solutions. "I showered and washed these! I am perfectly clean." -crack!- He slammed an armored boot into the lip of the fountain with brutal stomp. And continued. These monuments weren't built for strength, but they were made to last, so in just a few slams he'd have a nice little chunk of rock missing for the water to start draining out of the fountain through.

"Hey! Stop it! Stop it! Help meeeeeee..."
The little girl whined, as the water in the fountain started draining out of the crack. Draining...draining...draining...
"Help meeeeeeeeeeee..."
The girl's voice faded away as the water drained fully from the fountain, leaving only a marble behind.
And an empty fountain. Looks like Kalis would have to deal with a stinky bike.

"Ah... thanks."
He almost felt guilty. She was only water, really, but... cry
Kalis bent over, taking the marble in his hand, and pocketing the thing. His bike was smelly, and his leg felt a little tight from all the extra umph he'd been putting into that thing to up the hits a little. Still, he shook it out quickly before he had his run for it.
He might of stuck around, and just lolligagged, tried to put some of the stone back in, or looked for a hose he could get to wash the bike off.
But he didn't want to be there when a cop showed up and flew into a fury about the vandalism.
One stern faced man whom he hoped wasn't an officer, glared at him.
"I'll, ah, come back for the ticket and stuff later!"
Spoiler: He wasn't.
So, Kalis and his stinky bike departed.

"Sieg Engines nah...Id rather it not be named off of me. What about SOUL POWER.", though Sieg coudnt speak something in all caps because the speaking was done in a verbal manner, the way he said it would make you picture it in all caps.
