Welcome to Gaia! ::

((Shouyin, I hope you realize that I'm not Kat. This is a shared account. This is Sky. So don't use Josh trademarks on me, they don't work. xd ))

Kira yawned slightly and swam in a semi-circle, her snakelike expanse now heading along in the other direction. Such a game does not seem like much fun for the participants. Especially if your own life depends upon your winning, she huffed telepathically. Even with the being out of her mouth, she refused to speak aloud. For once, she was slightly shocked at that kind of obviously human... sport. If it could even be called such.

Seeing him turn his gaze skyward, she snaked her long neck up so that she looked down upon him with her shockingly green eyes. Drops of water occasionally dripped from her gargantuan nose as she wondered what was going on in his head. She kept her mental distance, out of some strange kind of respect.

"So you would know nothing of it...? This game of neccesity, played upon ignorant humans."

The question was asked in a low tone, even as his eyes remained fixated on what was underneath him.

He had to be sure of something...

I know much more than you could imagine, Little One, but I have never heard of such a barbaric thing. Kira narrowed her eyes at the being, blowing twin jets of hot air through her nostrils in his direction.

All I know of this place is what you see before you now. Burrowing in my own territory, the rock around me suddenly changed. I do not know why I have been sent here, but I do know that I will make this new place my own, whether beings like you enjoy it or not, she growled.

There was a distinct rise in temperature as Vahn's right hand seemed to suddenly lunge downward, taking on the likeness of a spear. The seemingly harmless wristlet that had been worn on his right wrist, had actually seemed to melt.

"Born from chaos..."

Spreading across his forearm and a good poriton of his hand, a bloodred gauntlet, complete with black fingered gloves was born. A distinct red orb seemed to be set in it's center; in which a deep conflaguration could be seen.

Efreet's Hand.

"Ironic I guess."

His right hand had taken the formation of a knifelike position and using pure muscle contraction to fortify or harden it momentarily, along with heat (at around 2500 degrees give or take) to add peircing damage-- it should have enabled Vahn to pierce through most surfaces, even steel at most. The damage incurred by this mainly depends on the speed and accuracy of the attack, but it would hardly be enough to finish off something this large.

This would be the opening he needed however.

Kira watched the being's swift movement in a mixture of vague amusement, and vague annoyance. The strange weapon began to burn a mark into the hardened scale that served as her chestplate, but she was otherwise unaffected. Little One, you are quite rash in your actions, I have noticed, she chuckled. Suddenly, she turned more serious. I have my weaknesses, yes, but I am no spirit of the sea or air, to be burned thusly. I have swum in the rivers of fire that lie beneath the rock. Do not plague me with your trifles, she spat, becoming more annoyed.

"What do you believe that I contain, that you desire so fiercely?!" Kira roared aloud. Moving her nose to touch the arch of her neck, Kira let the weight of her own head serve as a kind of wrecking ball. Aiming for the being on her chest, she meant to send him skittering across her armored stomach, most of which was exposed.

((I'm out for the night, folks. Pick this up tomorrow. Byesa!))

Sonuva---!

"Oof!"

He could feel the explosive loss of breath from his lungs, followed by the crushing pain of his muscles, and lastly the sting of his back as he went crashing down again.

Of all the dragons in the world he could have possibly ended up with... it had to be a heat resistant one.

This wasn't going to end exactly how he wanted.

"Hah....hah... if I wasn't rash... then I'd be a sorry excuse for a man." Straightening out his buckled knees, his right hand clasped around the hilt of the rapier sheathed at the back of his waist.

"You say you had no recollection of being brought here... brought here out of a place you belonged and displaced into waters you know nothing of. If what you say is true... then your as much a part of this chaos as any dancing penguin or talking watermelon. And I think a bit of that chaos is inside you."

Yellowed eyes kept the dragon in gaze. He was already weighing his options; one of which included the fact that the beast could simply roll over and send him into the water... a serious disadvantage for himself.

Impossible! Kira roared mentally. The only reason that I would contain such an item would be that I had mistakenly eaten it. Even so, I have yet to begin digesting the few fish I have found, and whatever might be there would be unharmed. The spot on her chest was still smoking slightly; she snarled her annoyance. With a bit of effort, she began pulling one of her wings out of the water, along with a few tons of water cupped in its folds. She promptly brought this crashing down upon her chest and stomach, trying to wash the bit of soot away.

"Well I'm not going to wait for to rummage through your stool for anything--- I don't have that kind of time!"

He right hand eased and loosened it's grip on the handle of his Fang, but he wasn't letting his guard down; it was so he could unsheath and twist it downwards at a moment's notice, instead of a straight horizontal pull.

"I can't exactly just let you go free... and I doubt you'd let me go either. You have to understand... the weird position I'm in. Normaly I would not have thought twice about killing you in defence of myself... but you caught me on a sort of off day."

He grinned slightly as with each passing moment he could feel bits and shards of his former self coming back together.
