The Dragons Guards

[DeaMSmith]

OoC I here that we do need to time things up}

I see that long. It only feels like a few days." Dea said as he tired to get up but feel bak into the bed he was sitting in." I need to see freya need to talk to her" he said holding his side where he was hurt but there was no scare there."

 

[LittleSprite2]

Celia had awakened the next morning her lord had not returned but she knew he would eventually.. so she set about doing what she could to enlarge the cave in her home so that it would comfortably hold a dragon of her lords size. with out disterbing the volcano its self. an interesting challange all on its own..

in between her work on that as well as patrolling the grounds of her lands time flew quickly and before she reolized it nearly a month had gone by..

It took a sun and a half to reach the nearest settlement.

It was a small settlement, maybe 100 or so people in it, but it would do. Built along a trade route, as he could tell from the carvans parked near the road, their would be some relativly attrative male here that he could borrow.

Well, provided they stopped panicing that is.

In retrospect, it might have been better to land, and approch the town in a less threating form. Still, when everybody was already running around the square screaming, an afterthought really diden't have that much to say.

"Alright," he bellowed as he landed in the market squre, thankfully only crushing a small metelworker's cart; he could pick whatever it was that was stuck between his toes out later. "I want every adult male under the age of 25 standing in front of me, NOW!"

Driven by fear more then anything else, the mobs of townfolks dragged the reluctent males into a line before him. All in all, their was about 14 men of that age in the town. The first was a miner, far two dirty for his tastes. Dim farmboy, soilder, fat merchent.

Then, he say him. Well built, about 6'4 tall, fine skin, well straghtened amber hair, perfect. "You," he pointed his tail at the boy. "I'm going to tell you something. Approximently a day and a half from now, the two of us are going to switch bodies. These eposodes will continue whenever I see fit. Keep yourself in good condition, and you can do whatever you want with my body while you have it. Got that."

A look of shock plastering his face, the man nodded excitedly. "Good. Now," he spread out his winds, carefully avoiding the roofs of nearby houses. "That's all I need. Farewell"

And so, leaving everybody in the village speechless, he took off.

--

Another day and a half later, he came to the volcano.

As he landed, a slight pressure brought back the realization that one, he was hungery and two, that he'd never remembered to remove the metal object from his toes. Well, it would be next to his foot when he shifted skins anyways. Change, change he thought as he brought the image of the boy to his head. Then, skin snapping like ellastic to the strange new form, he felt his body change.

(On a side note, one of the rival villages on the trade route was soon set alight. Spectators claim a dragon was the cause)

Allowing his new eyes to open, Hark looked down near his feet and noticed what he had been ignoring for these past few days. After a few moments of thought, he remembered seeing something like this in his teacher's Beastery room, keep the minor creatures chained to the walls. It was an iron ring, crafted to be clasped around a creature's neck, set with precious gems of each of the seven colors. What had it been called again?

"Child," he yelled as he continued to ponder the question. "I have returned."

Celia

Celia was not at the cave but out patrolling the area when her lord arrived she saw him fly over head and begain making her way back to the cave.. he would find it much improved sence his last visit and well able to hold his full Dragon size now.. tho she kept some escape tunles her size and others his to be on the safe side..

she arrived at the cave and watched amazed as her lord changed his shape into that of a strong attractive young male with a warriors body.. he picked something up that glittered for a moment but she didnt really see it.. as his back was to her. She heard him call out to her and smiled..

I am here my lord.. welcome ... and walked up to greet him as he turned to face her.

Rhannon, Freya and others

Rhannon mean while had no specific area she travled the world.. which was why it took her much longer to arrive at her sisters water fall.. she spoke many many languages of the human , elven , dwarven, so on and so forth not to mention the many animals lanugages as well...

she began receivning reports from verious animals from the begining... so knew all that had happened including the true death of there lord for whom she greeved.. she would join Freya, Roxis, and Rhys .. they would know the truth and some how they would need to free there sister Celia.. it would be another two days until she arrived and Freya's waterfall cave..

..........................................................

Freya woke the next morning after Dea had and while they awaited Rhannons arival beagin practicing her skills alnong with her brothers... using there abilitys against one another as well as practicing combining there abiltiys to attack as well..

They even took time to help Dea learn to fight better as well.. this would be a long battle and a dangerous one... Freya spent her days fighting and learning and her nights in Dea's arms..

She noticed as well that her brother Roxis seemed a bit distracted and remembered seeing a beautiful human woman near his tempal and wondered if she were the cause of his distraction.. it wouldnt suprise her if he kept tabs on the woman..

 

[swordandsandle]

His ears pickked up the sound of her footsteps before he saw her, despite the now pittiful seeming human sences. As the chilled mountion wind blew over the soft-seeming human skin, a painful reality decended upon him; this form diden't come with clothing. Here he was, stark naked, in front of this almost-complete stranger.

Yet, for some reason he diden't quite understand, it wasen't as emotionally compromising as one might think it to be.

Ok, maybe he understood it a little; magical training required strict control over emotional spikes, but he knew he should have been feeling at least a mild sence of embarresment. Something inside him was saying otherwise, but...

"Ah, there you are child," he kept his voice soft, slightly detached as he acustomed himself to this body. He turned his head about, keeping the rest of his body angled away. He'd have to think of some reason to explain this, thing, if he was ever going to show it to her, or she might catch on to him. "I apologize for being gone so long. I've had, dutied to attend to in the settled lands." Vauge, he knew, but just looking at her, his mind seemed to waver from it's usual focus. What was it that made it so? He pondered this question as he stood their, running his eyes over her once more. When the anser failled to materialize, he filed it away; the answers always came eventually. Still, his mind whipped up an excuse for why he'd been staring "May I dare say, I rather enjoy looking at you from this height. You always where one of my favorates to watch."

... A bit of flattery never hurt anyone.

 

[LittleSprite2]

Celia smiled and bowed to her lord she had been aware of his nudity but as it didnt seem to bother him she tryed not to let it bother her. you need not explain anything .. please wont you come in.. i have made some improvements to make you more comfortable should you choose to keep your dragon form... and i have some Robes that may fit you there was a caravan maybe 5 years ago who left there belongings behind when attacked by reavers not far from my lands ..

she lead the way inside and went to one of the chests where the loot she had gathered over the years was stored.. and pulled out a set of silver and copper robes.. the pants and shirt were copper, the belt and robe silver.. along with a pair of brown boots should he wish to have them..

Celia layed them out and asked have you eaten my lord ? i can hunt while you dress if you wish..

 

[swordandsandle]

"I shall remain as I am for now." He kept the object clenched tight in his hands, knuckles starting to whiten under the pressure. Even though she seemed to be accomidating, in this form he coulden't feel the costant aching of tired wings. "I would appreciate something to wear however. This body is a bit," he paused, running the next word over in his head. "compromising." Straghtening his body, he swiftly shifted his hands, one over his frontal pelves and the other holding the object to the small of his back. His frontal body facing her now along with his face, he nodded sollemly. "Please, lead the way."

Entering the cavern, he followed a few feet behind her, close enough so that he could see see over her but not so close that she could see what he held at his back. It was an intresting place, the magma tubes just as he remembered them. The most important thing to him, though, was the tunnels where warm, a starct contrast to the chill outside. Why then, he wondered, was blood still flowing downward to his... ehem, extermities while he looked at her? It wasen't something he quite understood, but no matter; she'd taken his nudity rather well.

The room was the same as he'd seen it before, although it was perhaps a bit larger then he'd seen previously. He stood relativly still, contimplating his rather intresting situation while she removed the cloths. From what he'd heard so far, the situation was realativly ideal; her not having seen him since their earliest meetings. Still, at some point, she might asks something he diden't know, and then what?

Then, as though on cue, he felt his stomech rumbble.

"I, I think I can manage if you'd like to rest." his mind faded out of his thoughts. "But if if you'd be willing, I haven't eaten in near four days. A short period of rest would do me good. I'll get something suitable on once you've left."

 

[LittleSprite2]

As you will.. if my lord prefers there is also a chamber down the tunnle and to the left where you may bath in a hot spring.. celia bowed and left her home leaving Cana to dress and rest while she went out to hunt.

It took some time to track down prey not many creatures lived near a live valcano.. she killed a buck, 2 rabbits and 3 phesants.. making a litter she layed the animals on it and carried them home where she skinned, plucked and cured the meat.. what they didnt used for this meal could be used for others..

after finnsihing her work she went inside and finding Cana she said our food is cooking now and if it is alright i will join you shortly i need to clean up a bit first.. she said excusing herself to wash the blood from the animals she had killed from her body.

Entering the chamber she had mentioned to him before she slowly removed her garments intending to wash them when she was finnished.. she also layed her wepons carefully aside yet still with in reach should she need them..

she undid her long red hair letting it free to settle around her hips.. as she slowly stepped nude into the warm steaming spring water.... where she washed and relaxed as much as she ever dared allowed herself to do..

 

[swordandsandle]

Silently contimplating her offer, Hark allowed the himself a moment of reprave to adress the situation. He felt the fabric of the garmets she had offered him; some kind of fine wool, maybe a bit worn from the elements. While they weren't the most comfortable thing he'd worn before, they where far superior to most things he'd seen so seen in his lifetime. Certainly, whomever had left these behind had possesed his fair share of gold. Setting the ring down behind one of the more intresting rock formations, he slid the clothing over his body. While it might be a bit tight for this new body, he'd make it work somehow. The silver, especailly, was something he admired.

After taking a look at himself in the smooth chunk of obsiden that must be the mirrior, and satisfied with the results, he decided he would take himself to the hot springs she had mentioned. Despite what he had thought before, flying was a terrible drag on the legs. He'd have to give Nuttsy something after a long day, in the future of course, to help with that. Perhaps if he'd let the muscles sock for a bit, the pants weren't that long anyways, he'd feel a bit better. Still keeping a regal air, he followd the pathways into what appered to be another, smaller cavern, with a wide opening veiwing the mountiside and cliffs below. Taking a seat next to the edge, he slid his legs into the water, rolling up his pants as far as nessicery, and allowed the warmth to wash over him.


When Celia first came in, Hark acknowledged her with a breif and pleasured nod, still enjoying the water beneth him. Yet, when she returned, all his attentions focued in. Apperently, she wasen't the least bit disturbed, or afraid, of herself walking around in the nude, His eyes focued in on her, but in a less critical, more awestruck kind of way. Something about her, now more then ever, was almost, intoxicating. He'd seen very few woman in his lifetime, although the ashes of two of his teachers failed female students stood among the small collection in his teacher's office. Maybe that was why her body had such a strong hold on him, it was still so new.

"I'm glad to see you have returned, child," he allowed himself a soft smile to show his slight amusement at her not noticing him. "I trust you have been tasking yourself to suit my, desires, well."

 

[LittleSprite2]

Celia startled and then blushed as she looked twords her lord she hadnt seen him in the mist of the room... and was a bit embarassed to be caught with her guard down this was one place she had felt comfortable, and able to relax.

She did not cover herself tho mearly smiled and swam out into the water so that it covered her.. I have and hope you will enjoy your meal when it is ready.. she replyed her long red hair floating around her as she swam around slowly in the water..

 

[DeaMSmith]

I'm not sure were to go shere i go and sorry RL got to me So i will post now }}

Dea was now sitting where he had his love and first time with Freya. Dea had not seen or talk to her much since he said some things he should never said to her and was mad and hurt but he didn't want to make her made but he was not sure on what happen or what was going on and how he got back to Freya's home

 

[swordandsandle]

Catching a bit of embarrissment in her face, Hark only barly forced himself to keep a semi-straght face. Not that he was happy, it was something different then that. Only that he thought, well, it was a bit amusing. " Don't worry about me, I won't bite you." Beckioning with his had, he followed her with his slightly gleaming eyes. "You can't understand how much it means to see you again, being alone so long. I'd like it if we could just talk for awhile. Unless you're too embarressed, of course"

 

[LittleSprite2]

i would like that as well my lord.. she said watching him as he moved closer to her, she found herself thinking he looked very handsome indeed in the clothing she had left out for him they suited him.. and she found her thoughts turning more lustfull than intellectual for the first time in a very long time..

i was only embarassed to have been caught unawares but as you have promised not to bite me.. i see no harm.. she said venturing to make light of her own embarassment and to tease them both a bit.. as she swam relaxed in the water

 

[swordandsandle]

(Terribly sorry for the delay, exams this week)

Thank the Realms that this body was so tall.

If it wasen't, Hark woulden't have been able to step into the water, while keeping his fine clothing dry. SHe was almost magical now, somehow changed. He coulden't quite put his finger on it, but she seemed to be, toying with im somehow.

"I'm glad you feel that way," he softened his voice a bit, trying to sound a bit more emotional then authorative. If she could play this game, maybe he would too. " You look rather fetching, like this. THe finest woman I've seen in a long time. Although," he mused, both in his body and spirt. "that hasen't been very many."

 

[LittleSprite2]

ooc np i understand trust me i have 3 kiddos and lots of family i am still buying for so no worries..

I am both suprised and pleased my lord that you find me so.. she said both hoping he truly liked what he saw and wondering if she should offer herself, or wait for him to take the lead.. she hadnt been with anyone in a very long time...

what if she were only seeing what she wanted to.. no she would wait for him..

 

[swordandsandle]

"I appreciate that," ... Something wasen't right here. Whatever this feeling was, it was creating a situation that was rather, surereal. "But I suppose that is beside the point." Yes, he was dancing around this situation rather poorly, but what did one dedicated to the magical arts know of woman?

"If you woulden't mind, could you, come closer?" he suggested, trying to buy himself a little time. "It's a bit hard to hear you over the flows."

 

[LittleSprite2]

if you like.. she said slowly standing up the water sliding down her body as she walked to him only from her hips down was hidden.. by water her long red hair clinging where it would behind her the ends floating ontop the water.. her nipples hardened by the difference in temprature between the water and air..

she moved slowly and seeing he didnt want to get his clothing wet.. moved so that she stood near enough for him to hear her if he chose to sit on the edge of the small heated pool.. and easly with in his reach should he choose to touch her.. will this do ? she asked...

 

[DeaMSmith]

ooc: again sorry that i have not posted in a bit RL got to me but here goes. lol }


Dea had been by himself since the day everything went down hill as he sighed he walked about a bit before getting his things. He didn't have much time he didn't want anyone to know where he was going. he need to get home before time was up Dea had forgotten why he came but he need to get home as he was walking out here thought he had heard things but made his way out and to the next town over wondering why things tune out like this.
