High in the mountains where snow blankets the tips, there is a pass. If you follow through it, it will lead to a Temple at the base of an even higher mountain.
Monks are usually training to fight. They believe this is the path to enlightenment. That by training all day to fight they will find peace with themselves and the world around.

Romi ran through the snow, glancing over his shoulder at the three winter ninjas chasing him. He ran alongside an ice wall and used it to do a back-flip and spew out black smoke from his mouth. He quickly made a dash for the pass and another ninja cut him off, throwing a kunai at his leg. It hit and red blood covered the snow. Romi quickly unraveled a wire wrapped around his arm and took the kunai from his leg, attaching it to the wire. He threw it toward one of the ninja and wrapped it around his neck, pulling at it to slice of his head. He leaped over a couple mounds of ice and ran to the bridge. He stopped when he noticed it was cut. He turned to see the other three ninjas finally catching up to him. Romi smiled and shrugged. "Oh, no.. What ever will I do?" He walked backwards to the edge of the cliff and then fell off it. As the air moved his hair around he opened his wings and started to fly back up. He looked down at the ninja and took out more wire, slicing them up into pieces as he landed. He bowed to the crowd of monks on the other side of the drop off. "It was nothing really.. Thank you. Thank you!" Romi turned around to bumped into a pair of breasts. He squeezed them and then looked up to see Emily. "Oh, s**t! It's you!" He said, backing away and falling off the cliff again. He caught himself mid-air and flapped his wings. "Why do you do that?" He asked. Emily smiled, very mad. "What part of Assassin do you not understand?!" She yelled at him, making a loud echo come back and sting him int he ears. Some snow fell off the mountains and Romi stared at her. "Uh... The part where we don't get to eat sweet things." Romi inquired, grinning.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Tasuya landed on the ground and made his wings disappear he had smelt blood while flying and decided to investigate." I should of figured you'd be here Emily....But who's kid?" Tasuya asked curious he smelt blood on him and guess it he was the culprit he hadn't spotted the Dragon scale yet. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Romi scratched his head and Emily kneed him in the gut, then elbowed the back of his head, sending him into a pile of snow. She sat on his back and looked up at Tasuya. "Hello, Tasu-chan~" She giggled and then kicked Romi when he began to squirm. "Oh, him?" Emily pointed to the boy she was sitting on. "This is just a trainee. He calls himself the Pink Mist or something." Romi poked his head out of the snow bank and gasped for air. "Purple! I'm the Purple Mist!" Emily hit him on the head with her fist and growled. "Yeah, whatever. So.. What brings you here?" Emily looked up at Tasuya again and grinned. Romi finally sat up and flipped Emily backward onto her butt. He spit out clumps of snow and looked at Tasuya. He then got up and Emily jumped onto his back, flipping him over the edge of the cliff once again. "Stay down there, you little brat!" She yelled to him. Emily turned to face Tasuya, but Romi appeared behind her while he flapped his wings. He grabbed her by the hair and tugged at it. "Stop being so mean. No wonder you don't have a boyfriend." He laughed while smirking. Emily turned around and tried to hit him but he flew out a bit so she couldn't touch him unless she wanted to fall off the cliff. "Damn you, Romi..! I'll kill you!" Romi smiled and remained in the air as she pouted and turned to Tasuya one last time.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Tasuya shot a glare at Romi's back and drew a sword stabbed it into the ground and jumped off it and did a flip then kicked Romi in the back using his dragon strength to send him flying to the other side and with the help of the ribbon he was hold he landed on the cliff side and climbed back up." Don't insult your superior that's the fastest way you can get killed. " Tasuya told him putting away his sword and noticed the bridge was cut and just did a couple of flips to land on the side Emily was on. " I'm here looking for a Dragon slayer....Know anything about it?" Tasuya asked Emily. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Romi was stricken by the sudden kick and flew up higher then the two of them. He rolled his eyes. "I can see you're no different then everyone else in the camp." He turned away from Tasuya and did a dead drop down in between where the bridge was cut. Romi's tail appeared and his humanly form remained and he hung himself upside down from a tree that had grown on the side of the cliff's wall.
Emily grinned. It was now her chance for revenge. "I do, in fact. He's a Dragon Slayer." She pointed her thumb over her back at where Romi went.
Romi's eyes widened when he heard word of what Emily said. "Ugh! That b***h is gonna get me killed.." He thought in a panic and released the branch his tail held onto. Romi started to fall head-first toward the bottom of the canyon and as he did his wings opened, catching the wind so he could land safely. He darted toward a cave entrance and hid behind a clump of ice.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Tasuya just watched him as Romi went and hide." He's not the one I'm after ...The one I'm after wouldn't run away like a coward." Tasuya said loud enough for Romi to here." And I wish people would stop assume I'm like other Assassins I'm not..." Tasuya said coldly." Actually I was wondering if you wanted to prove a certain person wrong about you not having a boyfriend." Tasuya said walking closer to her. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Romi narrowed his eyes. "White Assassin... White hair, white clothes, white eyes. Is there anything you don't have?" He laughed and flew up to meet them. He set his feet on the ground and turned his back to both of them. Romi bent over and pulled his pants down to flash them his butt. "You ain't got a white a** to go with all that~" He smirked and pulled his pants back up, then sat down. "I won't run. I'm not scared of you. You think I haven't been hurt before?" Emily tightened her hand into a fist. As much as she wanted to prove her interest in Tasuya, she wanted to hurt Romi even more. "Oh, Romi.. Are you jealous? Don't think I forgot about that time you asked me out." She leaned forward and wrapped her arms around Tasuya's neck as she waited for Romi's reaction. He smiled as he started to think back. "Me? Ask you out? Ehh.. Not interested in someone with a flat chest." Romi said, Emily released Tasuya and walked over to Romi grabbing him by his shirt and then touching her hands to his face. She drained his energy so low that he could barely stand and fell to his knees.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tasuya eyes turned blue and dragon shape when Romi flashed him his butt and a puff of smoke came out of nose." Watch your tongue and your actions boy! Cause it will the last thing you do!!" Tasuya shouted his deep voice echoed he calmed down some when Emily drained his energy." That's why I warned you the first time not to insult your superiors...And one more thing your still not the dragon slayer I'm looking for cause he wouldn't fall victim to that trick Emily did just now like you did." Tasuya said. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Emily carried Romi to the edge of the cliff and threw him off it. "I hope you die, little brat." She said, turning to walk back over to Tasuya. Romi fell into the icy ravine below and sank to the bottom of the river. He looked up at the surface of the water and breathed out all the air in his lungs. He closed his eyes tightly and vanished in a purple flash. Emily shook her head as she walked over to Tasuya. "That kid.. Honestly. He's gotten worse these past few months. He had such great potential, but I don't know why he acts so immature." She looked down. "Looking for more Dragon Slayers I assume.. There's good reason why Romi doesn't take you seriously. He hates dragons." Emily went to sit on a rock covered in snow. She sighed, but just as she sat down the rock vanished and she sat on the ground hard. "What the hell?" She yelled, quickly standing. Romi appeared at the edge of the cliff with his hair hanging over his eyes. He slowly drew out a kunai from his pocket and took a stance. "Defend yourself or you will die." He said to Emily. She looked over at him and crossed her arms. "Aren't you dead yet?" Romi still didn't look at her, he spoke again. "Defend yourself if you wish to live." Emily laughed. "You wouldn't.." She said with wry.
Romi took a step forward and he was so fast that he disappeared. No tracks were left in the snow and Emily gasped, stepping back as she looked around for him. She'd never seen him so fast.. Or so serious for that matter. Suddenly about ten wires lifted out of the snow below her and twisted tightly around her torso, getting her arms as well and pressing them to her sides. Emily's eyes were wide as she slowly looked to see Romi with the kunai to her neck. She hadn't sensed him.. How could he become so good in such a short time? It wasn't possible. Her arms began to bleed because of how tight the wires were holding her. He finally looked at her, his eyes glowing like a light purple haze as he slowly leaned in close to her ear. "Just kidding~" He whispered. Emily was so stricken that her hands were shaking. Was he serious? She sank to the ground when the wires came loose, reweaving around his arm as he smiled, throwing the kunai down in front of her. "Haha! Sorry for being so rude. I just didn't think you were for real. Tasuya Pendragon, right? It's nice to finally meet you. I'm such a big fan!" Romi grinned as he nodded. "I've been mastering the technique to conceal my true identity. Personality wise. How did I preform?" Romi bowed to the both of them and Emily was still a little shaken by his performance. How could she be mad..? He was being trained by the best in the camp, so for her to be mad would be like scolding a puppy for digging up gold.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tasuya was in shock at how skilled the boy was." Very good...Not many people can catch Emily off guard like that." Tasuya told him then noticed the air feel different and started to look around and noticed there was some scorch marks on the rocks near the temple and started to look around some after that and spotted Dragonic symbols. " Romi right? Well has this temple been attacked by a dragon before?" Tasuya asked turning around and looking on the other side of the cliff spotting more symbols and realized they were detectors if a dragon got close to the temple and cursed under his breath. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Romi helped Emily to her feet and he wanted ever so bad to clean the blood on her arms. He was a bit distracted by it until Tasuya mentioned a dragon. He looked toward the Temple and nodded. "Yeah.. A fight I lost." Romi took out the necklace from around his neck and unhooked it, removing the dragon scale and handing it to Tasuya. "I swear.. If I ever get my hands on that thing again..." He balled his hands into fists and his skin darkened a shade as if he might turn full Demon. "The monks tried to purge me of my Demonic essence.. I assume that's why I haven't reached my full power. If I had just been a little stronger.." Romi sighed and his skin turned back to pale white. "Who am I kidding? I can't protect anyone when I can't even keep from getting scratched myself." His eyes moved toward the sun to figure where it was in the sky.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Tasuya put his hand on one of his sword after he handed the necklace back to Romi." Then were about to have company...." Tasuya told them" There are three reason why a dragon would attack. One they were taken away from the mother at a young age, Two their mate or their young died maybe both and is getting revenge on the person or persons responsible and three The dragon was provoked otherwise Dragons are peacefully loving creatures and have a short temper and are protective of their young." Tasuya explained kept looking around await the arrival of the monks. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Emily looked to the sky as well. "Just like humans and other creatures, Dragons can be taught to hate as well. But what if this one is being controlled?" Romi shook his head. "No.. Dragons are too powerful. It would take more than one person to control a dragon, that is.. If they could even get close enough to a nest." Romi said, heading up the stairs as he entered the Temple. A couple monks came over to him and started chatting with him.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Tasuya shook his head." He's wrong Dragons are acceptable to magic that's why only witch,wizards and mages can get to us and take our young...That's why in fairy tales you hear of a veracious dragon attack or guarding a princess in a tower and knight defeating them cause Dragons that were taken from their young don't know how to defend themselves against swords like their taught to when their young by their parents." Tasuya told her as he pulled his swords and monks surround them. " Leave at once Dragons are not welcomed here!" The monk said in a fighting stance. " I mean you no harm and besides that you guys wouldn't last to seconds against me with your fighting style..." Tasuya told them putting away his sword trying to prove he wasn't a threat. " We do not believe you!" The monk said Tasuya signed " Think about it for a second you idiots if I meant to attack this temple I would of already attacked..." Tasuya told them shaking his head. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
