    Day: Between 1 and 50

    Koyota sat alone in a tree far up from the jungle floor. She was laying on a branch with her notepad out in front of her. She pupilless eyes stared at the paper. She was drawing her thoughts. She did not mean to, she had started out drawing a tree in front of her, but she had drifted off into the thoughts of others. She was reading random thoughts, not particularly compeate thoughts or from targeted pendragons. She wa just recieving what came. She found it easier to read the thoughts of those that felt like she did, sorrow and mournful. She was always sad, she had lost her own life, how was she supposed to feel. She presently snapped out of her trance. She needed to learn to control her thought reading, the thoughts often took control of her instead of the opposite way around. She looked at the page wich she only now actualy saw. It was covered in depictions of blades, blood, death, darkness, and hate. The forms all merged together creating an all together unhappy feeling. She sighed and looked at the ground, she would never vreate something beautiful.</font>

    Falcon, quite bored, was leaping through the trees. Nothing interesting happening at the academy, he had left on his own spare time.

    He stopped on a branch and scanned his surroundings with his red optics. Seeing nothing, he continued on, until he slipped on a branch and, not having enough time to spin aroundand fly, he hit the ground hard on his back, right next to Koyota. "Ouch...That smarts" He just relaxed, not even noticing Koyota for a minute til he looked next to him and he got to his feet quite quickly. "My apologies-" He suddenly realized it was koyota. "Koyota! It's been a while.." He then looked around and saw he had scattered her drawing papers all over when he hit the ground. "Oh let get those for you.." He went and collected the paper and placed them next to Koyota. "What brings you to these parts of Swaraj?"</font>
     
  3. <font color='#000000'>Koyota was startled by the pendragon's fall. She had thought she was alone. She got up and helped gather the papers and shoved them unto her bag. She usualy did not like anyone to see them.

    "It has been awile. I was just getting some alone time to draw."

    She laughed at herself for this statment. She was always usualy alone. She shifted her weight back and forth and looked at Falcon.

    "What are you doing here?"</font>
     
  4. <font color='#8D38C9'>"I was just wandering through the jungle, Nothing much to do at the academy.. I slipped on a branch while I was jumping through the trees, and saw you here" He stretched his legs wings. and saw another piece of paper, he looked at it. "This is beautiful" gazed at the half drawn picture that happened to be one of the ones she had given up on. "Just a bit more detail in the vines and trees and maybe a bit more in the grass.." He handed the picture to Koyota</font>
     
  5. <font color='#000000'>Koyota snached the paper away a little to fast than she would have liked. She blushed a little and shoved the paper back in her bag. She had worked on that drawing a little but decided it was hopeless.  

    "Thank you."</font>
     
  6. <font color='#8D38C9'>"Your welcome" He looked at his paw, which got a small paper cut from the paper, but he ignored it.</font>
     
  7. <font color='#000000'>Xela dragged her tired feet across the soft ground.  I need rest she thought but then a little voice in her head told her that she was being a wimp.  So she straightened her back and continued on.  She had been traveling for many days with little food and water.  As she continued to think of fresh meat rosting over a warm fire she saw to smudged figures in the far distance.  At first she was to revolved in her thoughts that she thought nothing of it but as she got closer she began to wonder who they were and if they would leave before she got there.  As the figures began to clear she saw a male and a female.  SShe then decided firmly in her head that they would not leave so she hid behind a near by bush.  Deep in her heart she wanted to meet them but her stubbornn brain said that they couldn't be trusted.  She decided to wait until they left or until they came to her (if they would).  She heard bits and parts of the conversation but was to far away to understand it.
    When she heard the male say that there was nothing happening at the academy she thought about her "school".  She had run away because it was getting boring.  Plus one of the older girls had said she was a sissy so Xela proved her wrong and ran away.  Her thoughts turned back to the couple.  She waited to see if anything would happen.</font>
     
  8. <font color='#8D38C9'>Falcon's ears turned in Xela's direction. He looked around, but he saw nothing. He sniffed the air  "Hmm... someones here.. I'll be a minute Koyota.." He kept his nose to the ground as he passed by a few bushes, slowly nearing Xela's bush...</font>
     
  9. <font color='#000000'>Xela was startled by the fact that this man could sniff her out!  For a moment she was angry, her temper rising, then she decided that many people could do that.  When the man began to come near her she began to worry that seh would get caught.  Was there some sort of punishment for eavsdropping?  
    Don't  be a baby, just go and show your self but act fierce so they won't bother you!
    Her stubborn side kept these thoughts running through her head while the other kind side which never won teh  battle between the 2 repeatedly said that Xela should show herself but be polite.  She hated it when she had these thoughts in her mind she felt like she was stupid for her thoughts which is something that a normal person wouldn't care about.
    In the end her decision was to show herself but act fierce like her favored stubborn side had suggested.  She quickly jumped out from behind her bush just as the man was coming to her...</font>
     
  10. <font color='#8D38C9'>Falcon jumped back surprised. "Hola Senorita... You know it's rude to eavesdrop on other 'dragon's conversations..."</font>
     
  11. <font color='#000000'>Ah a spanish speaker eh?  Xela asked in atone showing full amuzment. I will not apologize for my eavesdropping as you would call it for I could not trust you enough to say something merely as small as that.
    This time Xela's voice had a rattle of sarcasim.  
    And you are?
    She had wanted someone to talk to so she was talking but her bad side wouldn't let her say things right.
    Before you ask, I will not tell you my nme before you tell me yours and that young lady over there's as well as a little about you.
    She said ready for everything he was about to say.</font>
     
  12. <font color='Black'>He shook his mane as he watched the two converse, and of course,
    now it was he who was the evesdropper. But he had all intention
    s of coming out of his 'hiding spot'.

    " E ruja u byeka, shyodh es et yma sy tgauc yv jhinat.
    E feth mys sy hepa, abam ev sha thupyft uja ni hyna. "


    Tallons released as he moved forward in order to remove himself
    from the shadows, that shaggy, metallic, darkned, sapphire coat
    was something he was proud of. His father had been all white, a
    nd his mother had been all ebon, he was glad to have his sapphi
    re-obsidian coat.

    " Ev yma fyolp huba ni gjatamka, E fell fulc vojshaj.
    Ros ev yma fyolp edmyja sha gjatamka yv u jhinanucaj,
    sham E thull lauba. "


    And those last words came from the heart, as he pushed those ta
    llons roughly into the ground to stand bipedal, for only the qu
    ickest of moments, he was hurt--too many tattoo's in one day.</font>
     
  13. <font color='#000000'>Xela looked at the newcomer.  How long had he been there?
    who are you? And what language are you speaking?
    Xela's eyes were cold and un moving but every once and a while they would switch from one person to the other.  They all seemed new to Xela but her mouth was locked firmly, she had said enough it was their turn to answer questions.</font>
     
  14. <font color='Black'>
    She didn't understand Ramathian?, but then again, he was
    trained in the ways of professional poetry, and for him to w
    rite poetry, he had to know the spoken languages.

    " Dear fella, I was speaking fluent Ramathian. I did not
    know that you did not know how to interpret it. I am so use
    d to speaking it, it just flows, this 'english' language is quie
    t an influent langauge that I write and speak in. "


    He stood on his tallons and the tips of his toes now. Pushi
    ng the ball of his feet into the ground. He didn't know if he
    wished to give away his name..he wasn't very partical to it.

    " If you wish to call me anything, Call me Dox. "

    His voice a mere whisper in the winds this time instead of
    that beautiful booming voice that he had spoken with while
    speaking Ramathian. He yawn'd, moving again upon on hi
    s bi-peds.

    " Py mys vauj es, es kymtonat iyoj vauj.
    Py mys lyba es, es husat iyoj lyba.
    Py mys vaal es, es fell ybajkyna iyo.

    Umdaj et u vyjka yv pameul. "
    </font>
     
  15. <font color='#000000'>Xela felt foolishnot knowing ramathian, but she was glad that this fellow DOx knew english.
    I know english and some spanish, but i don't know ramathian, ill learn it soon enough.
    A soft breeze blew suddenly softening her hair as it blew wildly.  She took a look once more at each person.  She wanted to say something to brake the awkward silence but didn't know what to say.
    And what are you doin 'ere? then she added slowly and clearly
    Dox?</font>
     
  16. <font color='Black'>





    Dox grinned, moving toward her slowly, letting those
    wings clasp around his front side while he was in his bipedal
    form. He couldn't say she wasn't beautiful, she was, slightly.
    Even though she didn't know the beautiful language of her pe
    ople...it didn't matter to know it to some. But he thought that
    Ramathian was a beautiful language..even if only certain 'dra
    gons needed to know it.

    " I heard some others talking, I was trying to write a poe
    m about their encounter....but they were squabbling too muc
    h. I am a Poet. "


    He wasn't in love with the girl, so that was good, Keno
    [Dox] had a hard trouble NOT falling for fella's. But he just felt a
    small bound of happiness talking to her, but it would wash awa
    y certainly afterwards. They way that she had said his name br
    oke him of his daydream.

    " I never did get your name, may I ask what it tis? "



    </font>
     
  17. <font color='#000000'>Xela stared at him suspiciously.  Her eyes looking over him trying to decide whether or not he was trust worthy or not.  Her eyex reached his face and his eyes caught her gaze but she pulled them away and sighed.  then took a quick look at the other male 'dragon.  Then she said with a tired sigh
    I might as well, Xela, is my name, Xela DarkDragons.
    she felt the wind rustle her hair and her eyes wandered upon the group, but she tried to keep her eyes away from ddox's eyes.  She couln't explain it, they were just, they had something in them that caught the eye of others.</font>
